Chapter 19: Eat them all
readx;? Just when the two sides were fighting to the death, two people riding tall horses appeared on a slightly higher cliff not far from the scene. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
These two people are Ding Peng and his "loyal servant" Li Kun.
The two stared at the scene of the scuffle on the road for a while, Li Kun hesitated: "Master, what should I do?" There are too many people below, although it seems that martial arts are as common as villains, but it is impossible for so many people to be arrested. ”
Li Kun has been following Ding Peng for many days, and he already knows that Ding Peng's biggest concern is security, so he is used to thinking about problems from this perspective.
Ding Peng looked at the scene of flesh and blood flying down, but it was as if he had seen a mountain of gold and silver, his eyes shot a light of desire and greed, and he said casually: "Lao Li, how about you say that you have taken them all?"
"Ah, sir, no, never. Li Kun was taken aback and reminded: "Although the master's miraculous skills are world-renowned, there is absolutely no problem in dealing with these Xiaoxiao. But you see, sir, there are too many people down here, those horse thieves still have the advantage of war horses and bows and crossbows, and the villain sees that they advance and retreat to a certain extent, and they have been killed for a long time, the villain ...... The villain is worried that if the master is not careful, if he is injured by them, even if it is a small injury, it is a big loss, and the lord's precious body is not worth taking such a risk. ”
Ding Peng laughed, stretched out his hand and said, "Lao Li, you say this, master, I want to eat them all, of course, there are more ants and you can bite the elephant to death, of course the lord will not take the risk, let's go down slowly, depending on the situation." ”
Having said that, Yi Ding Peng's cautious mind naturally would not be so arrogant, but he did have the heart to accept all these people, the reason is that he and Li Kun are blocking the road and robbing people here these days, and the harvest is really not satisfactory.
Since the last time he set the strategy of grabbing people, Ding Peng took Li Kun to find the trade artery in front of him, and then began to wait for the rabbit, but after waiting for many days, he only caught two or three kittens, not to mention the business trips in groups, sometimes he couldn't even see a ghost shadow all day.
It wasn't until he caught an old guy that he asked the reason from his mouth, it turned out that this time was in the off-season for business, and there were few caravans on the Silk Road, and because the countries of the Western Regions suddenly became hostile to the Central Plains Great Xia Dynasty, and even expelled the diplomatic officials sent by Great Xia, resulting in a sharp deterioration in bilateral commercial trade, the Central Plains merchants did not dare to come over for the time being, and the merchants of the Western Regions did not dare to easily step into the Yumen Pass.
After finding out the reason, Ding Peng's originally high interest was a little depressed, if it wasn't for this battle today, he would have been ready to change his strategy and use other methods to collect manpower.
So these people in front of him are simply nectar for Ding Peng, and what is more appropriate is that these people seem to be Han Chinese, and they have a strong sense of identity when they enter the sect in the future, and there is no language barrier, so no matter how difficult it is, Ding Peng is determined to capture them all.
With this in mind, Ding Peng and Li Kun slowly came down from above and quietly approached the battlefield, they had already seen from a high place that there were still a few bandits using bows and crossbows in ambush behind the dirt slope, so they first quietly touched behind them, and then Ding Peng made a move, and quickly and easily cleaned up the three horse bandits who were packing up the machine crossbow.
Putting down the horse bandits, Ding Peng began to study the machine crossbow they had just used. This kind of machine crossbow and Ding Peng in the modern society to see the shape of the crossbow is about the same, but the volume is much larger, very heavy, a machine crossbow weighs at least 100 catties, the weight is mainly concentrated in the iron crossbow machine used above, the crossbow machine is the core of the crossbow, by the lookout mountain (sight), hanging knife (trigger), hook and two parts combined into a whole chain key, basically and modern crossbow is almost the same, but because the ancient manufacturing process is relatively backward, so these parts are rough, the other is bulky, the weight greatly exceeds the modern crossbow.
The machine crossbow weighing 100 catties can be called a ballista car, very bulky, and it is extremely inconvenient to pack and carry, but its power can be regarded as a killer in this era, the three machine crossbows in front of Ding Peng can each hold seven arrows, and the three are fired at the same time is twenty-one, no wonder the dart team was caught off guard just now.
Li Kun cautiously touched the cold crossbow body, and said in a speechless manner: "Master, this guy is really a murderous weapon, if dozens of them are launched at the same time, I am afraid that the martial arts master will also have to hate him on the spot." ”
Ding Peng kicked the corpse of the horse bandit under his feet, and said with a smile: "No matter how powerful the weapon is, it has to be manipulated, this crossbow is powerful, used for surprise assassination, it can be said that it is impossible to prevent it, but if the master is alert, I am afraid that the final tragedy is these little minions who operate the machine crossbow." Okay, Lao Li, don't worry about these crossbows for now, it's all ours sooner or later, you collect some dry leaves and grass first, be careful, don't let the people below find out about the movement. ”
Li Kun stretched his neck to look at the battle that was still fighting below, and said a little timidly: "Master, I think let's forget it, let's take these crossbows away is a small gain." ...... The villain sees that those horse bandits are about to kill the dart master, and they will soon find out what is going on here......"
"If you are told to go to work, what nonsense!" Ding Peng's eyes widened, Li Kun shrunk his neck, Ding Peng looked at his timid and funny appearance, so he had to explain: "You see that the master is so calm, he is naturally confident, the master will not be brutal, of course you have to pay attention to strategy to deal with these long-standing horse bandits, you will watch later, the master will not move a punch or kick, and put them all down." ”
Li Kun looked that Ding Peng was indeed very sure, so he had to do things suspiciously, but he was still a little worried in his heart.
Ding Peng stretched out his palm, and confirmed it again against the direction of the wind, there was no problem, consistent with his previous measurements, this place is the tuyere, and the mountain wind from the bend in front will blow from here to the bottom, what makes him even more excited is that at this time, the mountain wind suddenly became stronger, and it was not early to see that it was not early, it should be the temperature difference between day and night that caused the wind speed to increase.
God help me!
Ding Peng secretly praised in his heart, if he didn't have a certain certainty, he would naturally not be brutal, after so many things, Ding Peng's psychology has matured rapidly, he definitely didn't dare to despise the horse bandits below who seemed to have ordinary martial arts, not to mention that they could easily defeat a group of dart masters who had been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, just look at their skilled riding skills, tactics of advancing and retreating, and fierce momentum that are not afraid of death, these horse bandits must not be underestimated.
Therefore, Ding Peng is not ready to use his poisonous palm to test the combat effectiveness of these horse bandits, he will not risk his life if it is not necessary, and as long as the scuffle starts, even if he and Li Kun can defeat the horse bandits, they cannot prevent some people from fleeing in chaos, and the difficulty of leaving them all is simply hellish, and as long as one or two people escape, their whereabouts may be exposed.
It's just a possibility, but Ding Peng will definitely not gamble, now that the doppelganger is no longer in Gansu, who can guarantee that Yang Tianlei will not suddenly enter Qinghai?
Therefore, he decided to calculate.
After thinking about it, Li Kun has collected a large number of dead branches and hay, this guy is not bold, but he is very neat, Ding Peng is used to him.
Li Kun looked at Ding Peng, waiting for the next instructions, Ding Peng looked at his nervous appearance, and said with a smile: "Lao Li, don't be like that, make it as if the master is going to force you to work hard, don't worry, your life and the master's life are very valuable, let's not take unnecessary risks." ”
After speaking, Ding Peng took out the five bottles of medicine that he had exchanged for in Li Kun's absence just now from his arms, and instructed him: "Lao Li, be careful, pour the medicine powder in the bottle evenly on the dry grass, and after the old man lights the blades of grass, you remember to hold your breath, don't inhale the smoke, the old man has no time to save you." ”
Li Kun saw that Ding Peng said so carefully, he couldn't help but think of the life and death scattered in his body, and remembered the feeling that life was worse than death when the toxin attacked, and he was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and he almost dropped the medicine bottle, Li Kun hurriedly grabbed it, nodded and said: "Old, master, don't worry, the villain will definitely be saved." ”
The two of them sprinkled all five bottles of medicine into the dry grass leaves, this medicine is naturally not the life and death scatter that Li Kun thought, and there is no life and death scattering in the world, that is Ding Peng was afraid that he knew the name of the Three Corpses Brain Divine Pill and deliberately deceived him, the medicine powder sprinkled at this moment is strictly not a poison, but a kind of ** called Ma Gu San, this medicine ignites when it encounters fire, and the magic is that the effect of the medicine will not only not be lost, but can be transformed into smoke with better effect.
Under the instruction of Ding Peng, Li Kun took out the fire fold and ignited the dry branches and leaves, and a flame rose vigorously, it was the autumn and winter season, these dry branches and grass leaves were very easy to burn, and in an instant there was a thick smoke, and then a gust of mountain wind blew, mixed with black smoke mixed with hemp bones scattered yellow-brown smoke whistling and rushing down.
Seeing the poisonous smoke drifting towards the destination like an obedient pet, Li Kun patted his ass: "Master, the villain understands, we are going to use the poisonous attack strategy to take them down." The old man is really a clever plan, this clever plan is really better than the reincarnation of Zhuge Wuhou, no, the old man is more powerful than that Zhuge Liang, he is simply a master of astronomy and geography, and the villain is willing to worship that five-body throw. ”
"Don't pat yourself on the back!" Ding Peng scolded with a smile: "How can the master be so godly, not to mention compared with Zhuge Liang, there are countless talented people in this world who are much stronger than the master." Lao Li, be a low-key person, pretend to be a pig and eat ...... Haha, don't talk about that. The master's plan is actually nothing to put it bluntly, the key is still in this medicine, with the medicine this strategy can work, without the medicine let the master plan to go through the sky, I am afraid that if you want to take down these people without blood, it will be as difficult as the sky. ”
Ding Peng's words are not presumptuous, the truth is true, Ma Gu San, this kind of **, the effect of the medicine is actually not very powerful, as long as ordinary martial arts people are on guard, they can't charm them by inhaling a little less, only by inhaling a certain amount can they play a role, if the other party is a martial arts master with high internal strength, it is useless.
But this kind of ** has a natural defect, that is, the smell is very unpleasant, especially when ignited by fire, the smell is simply smelly, no, Li Kun had pinched his nose and closed his breath according to Ding Peng's instructions before, and at this moment he still felt a trace of unpleasant smell entering his nose, and couldn't help but say to Ding Peng: "Master, let's stay away from here, it's too smelly." ”
Ding Peng waved his hand: "Lao Li, you first dodge and hide yourself, master, I still have something to do, and success or failure is here." ”
As mentioned above, the effect of Ma Gu San is average, only a certain amount of inhalation can be stunned, its advantage is that it can be mixed into smoke, spread with the wind, and the exchange price is very cheap, so Ding Peng exchanged a full five bottles at a time, in order to exert the power as a whole, if it is replaced with poison such as broken intestine rotten bone powder, where is Ding Peng willing to waste so much.
However, there is never a foolproof thing in the world, although it is seen that the smoke has filled the battlefield, but in order to ensure the smooth progress of the plan, Ding Peng must be close to the scene, adapt to the situation, and in case of sudden changes, some tactics need to be temporarily adopted.
