Chapter 148: The Five Masters of Kou

Finally, the opportunity to escape came.

Early one morning, a group of reckless men in rags, with swarthy faces and unshaven beards, stormed the women's workshop, overturned their looms, their handicraft tables, and kicked over their cleaning buckets. The man in charge of the overseer was punched to the ground by them, and several knives were pointed at his neck.

All the female workers screamed in unison and fled in all directions like a flock of sparrows. Yunshang was also mixed in with the fleeing crowd, and she thought to herself that this might be another gang of robbers, black on both sides.

But the gang of gangsters immediately shouted: "The garrison is on business! Idlers avoid! ”

Yun Shang's eyes widened: This is the Guard? This is the army of our Cai State?

The villagers who were watching from the perimeter of the women's workshop were dispersed, and the women in the workshop pushed and shoved and fled, and some of the guards guarded the door and took some of the women captive. Yunshang lowered her head as much as she could, not letting herself be discovered, and wanted to blend in with the crowd and escape.

She fled the door closely behind an aunt, and when she was about to leave the yard, she suddenly remembered a rude voice in her ears: "Catch this, this one with fine skin and tender meat." ”

Yunshang was grabbed by a big hand on her arm, and being caught by this hand was like being locked by an iron hoop, and her bones hurt. She was pushed around by the soldiers in a daze, and then she was taken to a clearing outside the courtyard.

Only then did Yunshang see clearly that some of the people standing around were indeed wearing the armor of Cai Guo's guards. At this point, her heart ached inexplicably, as if something important had been broken.

There were many other women who were brought along with Yunsheng, and they all stood with their heads bowed and fearful, not saying a word. Standing in the center of these soldiers was an officer in bright armor.

Yun Sheng glanced at the officer carefully, only to see his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a face with Chinese characters with sharp edges and corners, which made people feel good when they saw him.

"Fifth Lord Kou, the enemy's lair has been turned upside down by us, and we haven't seen those salaries." The soldier next to him who grabbed Yunsheng said.

The officer known as the "Fifth Master of Kou" frowned and said, "If you don't put it in his lair, where is it?" ”

This officer is Kou Guo, who was dismissed.

"Five masters" is the abbreviation of the "five hundred masters" in the camp, generally the "centurion" who is in charge of 100 people, the "500 masters" who are in charge of 500, and the "2,500 masters" who are in charge of 1,000 people.

Kou Guo looked at the women behind the soldiers and frowned, "What's going on?" ”

"Hehe, I'm going to make the brothers feel refreshed." The soldier said, "No, let the five masters pick it first." ”

Kou Guo's brows furrowed even deeper, and the soldier saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said: "They are all spies who collaborate with the enemy, and they should have been imprisoned." ”

Kou Guo thought for a moment and said, "I'll forget it." Don't make a big deal about it, I don't want to hear bad comments about what you're doing. ”

The soldier smiled, "No." ”

He smiled very honestly, but it was his honesty that made him look more terrible.

Yunshang was clever, she knew that if she didn't think about it, something very bad might happen to her.

"Do you know who I am?" Yunshang asked in a trembling voice.

The soldiers looked at her, and one of the soldiers raised his palm, and when he was about to fall, Yunshang shouted before him: "I am Yunhou's daughter!" ”

"Smack."

A crisp slap resounded throughout the audience.

"If you are Yunhou's daughter, I am still Cai Guogong's daughter!" The soldier who slapped Yunshang said.

"Wait a minute." Kou Guo stopped the soldier and walked over to Yunsheng, holding her chin and taking a closer look.

"Her physique and skin really don't look like a village woman, she must not be an ordinary person." Kou National Road.

The five big and three thick soldiers next to him stopped smirking: "How could Yunhou's daughter be here?" And how can you wash your weapons for a robber in a robber's den? ”

Kou Guo looked at Yunshang again and said, "Yes, why are you washing weapons with robbers in the robbers' den?" ”

Yun Sheng said in a trembling voice, telling the five masters how she kept up with the convoy of silver, how she was robbed by robbers, and why she ended up here.

Kou Guo kept nodding his head as he listened, but he was already faintly thinking in his heart.

But before his thinking could take shape, he suddenly heard a short scream in his ear, and when he hurriedly looked back, one arm flew into the sky.

A soldier's arm, broken off in unison against his shoulder, flew into the sky, and it took a long time for it to fall, kicking up a puff of dust.

"I'm sorry I'm late."

A man wearing a Taoist robe and a Taoist temple stepped into the air, and after he glanced around, he read aloud: "If you say that you are not really down, you will not be able to feel it." Being in different places, it is difficult to distinguish between low and high. ”

"As a Venerable Jiedan, it is ridiculous that I was actually moved by the words of a mortal and that it took me seven days of retreat to hold on to my Dao heart."

"But because of this, I really understood the true meaning of 'up and down' and 'water'. The Dao Heart is more perfect, which is really a great opportunity. ”

The person who spoke was none other than Venerable Wakamizu, who had been "crazy" for 7 days.

Ruoshui looked at the soldier with the severed hand and said, "I don't kill indiscriminately, but you made me break my oath a little, so I have to kill, but you don't sin to death." ”

With a finger of his hand, a tongue of fire floated past the soldier's severed arm, and his wound was sealed with flames, so that the bleeding stopped, but he also fainted.

The soldiers around him gasped for a moment, and they didn't know what figure was standing in front of them? Qi Qi knelt down and said, "Venerable." ”

Kou Guo, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled and said: "Venerable, the lower officials are ignorant, they don't know that this Yun girl is protected by you, how offensive they are, they really deserve to die!" ”

Ruoshui glanced at him lightly and said, "My oath has always been to protect this girl from harm, and I have no way of asking where she is going and where she is being taken." ”

Kou Guo was a spirit, and came back to his senses: "That's right! Was that cloud just now? That's how the bandit leader abducted her with the Taoist priest. ”

Thinking of this section, an even bolder idea was born in Kou Guo's mind.

……

It was a pyrrhic victory.

Although Wang Debiao's team witnessed the tragic situation in front of them when they returned to the base area at the last charge mountain in Luhegou, they knew that the form at this time was already very dangerous.

Littered with the debris of the flames, the villagers are no longer friendly to their team, and their own team is in danger of falling apart.

Because many of the women who were insulted were dependents of newly recruited soldiers in their own units.

"The surname is Zhu! You give my wife back! ”8)
