Chapter XVIII
In the middle of the night, the soldiers and horses have gradually retreated, although it is a pity that Hu Erhu was not killed in one fell swoop, but it can only be so, after all, how can the strong man in the "Hundred Heroes" be so easy to kill? Especially on the basis of the other party's single-minded escape, it is even more impossible to make a gain.
However, this time, even if it was impossible to kill Hu Erhu, he was deeply injured and was unable to compete for the Tianshan Snow Lotus. Especially when Bai Zhan Hou aimed at his heart, even if he couldn't kill him on the spot this time, he could still make his martial arts completely useless, and he would be like a wasted person.
Outside White Horse City, the moat was rendered pitch black by the night, and only countless starlight were reflected in it, dancing like silver snakes. Suddenly, the atmosphere of silence was broken, and with a "bang" sound, a figure appeared in the water, with a knife in his mouth, crawled to the shore with difficulty, and hid his figure by a low bush beside him, and then, taking off his jacket, pulled out a halberd from his back.
"Phew!" Hu Erhu spit out a mouthful of blood, and the severe pain made him want to faint, but he knew that he couldn't do this, once he passed out, there was a possibility that he would never wake up again, and took a step back and said, there is still no escape from danger, how dare he faint? Those skin injuries are nothing, it's just that the internal strength that accompanied the halberd blasting into his body was too powerful, constantly scurrying in his meridians, and his internal organs seemed to be shattered. This is still controlled by him when he is at the last moment, using his internal strength to protect his heart, if he is a little slower, he is afraid that he will die on the spot immediately.
"The abominable Hundred Battles are so powerful, it seems that the Tianshan Snow Lotus is really not something that ordinary people can touch. This time, all my internal organs have been displaced, and if I do it with someone in the future, I will definitely be injured, vomit blood and die, he is trying to beat me into a waste! Hu Erhu's single eye flashed with a fierce light, he really couldn't understand how he was exposed when he was cautious enough? Was it found out by the hands of a hundred battles, or did someone deliberately frame himself?
"Ahem...... cough" Hu Erhu touched the injury again, causing a violent cough, he hurriedly covered his mouth and slowly walked into the distance. No matter what, being able to survive is a victory, and as for the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, let the others fight for it.
However, at the moment when Hu Erhu turned around, he saw a black shadow standing quietly behind him. Hu Erhu was suddenly frightened, who is this person? can actually get close to his side silently, this kind of hidden kung fu can already be said to be shocking. You must know that under his serious injury, he is more alert, and he deliberately strengthens his sense of the surroundings, but even so, he has been invaded by the other party to such a distance, and the strength of the other party must be only higher than his own. If he had encountered such a strong man in the past, he would have escaped even if he was invincible, but now, Hu Erhu suddenly felt that he had fallen into a mortal situation.
Hu Erhu looked up, it was a handsome and somewhat jealous face, there was always a hint of evil smile on the corner of his mouth, and when he wanted to see the person clearly, a pair of hands had already appeared in front of his eyes......
White Horse City, inside the gambling house.
Ji Yunkong walked directly into the inner room, and no one stopped him along the way, the guy in the gambling house had already been instructed, this person was the guest of the boss behind the scenes, and he should not be rude. When he arrived in the inner room, Lei Wanli was already waiting there, and He Ballu's convoy was about to arrive in a few days, so he ate and lived here for the past few days, on the one hand, to facilitate meeting with Ji Yunkong, and on the other hand, to deal with emergencies.
"Jiang Gongzi, what's the matter?" Lei Wanli asked with a smile.
"Fortunately, I didn't lose my life!" Ji Yunkong stretched out his hand and threw it, and an object flashed with cold light and was inserted into Lei Wanli's table, it was a knife, a pig-killing knife.
Lei Wanli didn't care, nodded slightly, Hu Erhu's knife is so distinctive, it is difficult for others to imitate, and besides, the knife is in the people, and the knife is dead, this is almost the motto of all Jianghu people. After all, if you have to give up your weapons, you won't have the face to walk the rivers and lakes.
"Now we can move on to the next step." Ji Yunkong smiled faintly. He knew very well that the reason why he was asked to do this today was to finally test whether he had the capital to cooperate with Lei Wanli. If it takes a lot of time to deal with a seriously injured Hu Erhu, how can it be compared to other "Baixiong" powerhouses? Although he knows, he doesn't break it, this is what a smart person should do, otherwise, the cooperation between the two will not be able to continue.
Lei Wanli was very satisfied with Ji Yunkong's performance, and laughed: "Jiang Gongzi is really wise and brave, this seat admires, if you were born decades earlier, if you want to come to the 'Baixiong', there will definitely be a seat for you!" Jiang Gongzi, what should we do next? Do you want to use this trick to kill people with a knife and get rid of another person? ”
"Nope! Get rid of one person, it is also possible that Hu Erhu himself was accidentally exposed, and if there is one more, it is to clearly tell others that someone has reported to the court. Ji Yunkong said.
Just as a hundred battles want to get rid of all the Jianghu people, the Jianghu people are not comfortable looking at the officials of the imperial court, although the two have not reached the point of life and death enemies, but friction often occurs. Sects could not stand the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the imperial court could not allow sects to become the source of unrest. In such a situation, although there is no explicit provision, anyone who secretly reports to the imperial court will be hostile to all the people in the rivers and lakes. People are not fools, after a series of accidents, as long as you investigate carefully, sooner or later you will find the body of the gambling house.
Lei Wanli thought about it carefully, and also understood this, and then asked: "Then according to the child's opinion, what should we do now?" ”
Ji Yunkong said: "The vertical and horizontal things are nothing more than joining the weak to resist the strong, after Hu Erhu was defeated in a hundred battles, he has become the target of the public, since this is the case, we simply unite with other masters to attack together." Otherwise, you and I alone will not be able to defeat the alliance of Bai Zhan Hou and He Ballu. Now we have two targets, one is the 'Green Snake' Bai Xiaolian, and the 'Scarlet Tiger' Lin Hongying, I don't know much about the two of them, I don't know what the shopkeeper's plan is? ”
Lei Wanli thought about it carefully, thinking about all the information about these two people, and then said: "Bai Xiaolian is ranked ninety-eighth, and his weapon is a green snake whip, which is three zhang long, can be near or far, and is unpredictable; Lin Hongying ranked fifty-one, characterized by wearing a big red robe, and inside the red robe, there were thirteen red tassel guns, flying guns with hundreds of shots, and invincible marksmanship. These two people have their own characteristics, but this seat is still inclined to Lin Hongying, after all, she is a thief in the green forest, and she is still more benevolent and righteous. And Bai Xiaolian, as a member of the Demon Sect, cooperates with her, maybe when she will be blackened, she will be blackened. ”
"Okay, just the shopkeeper of Yilei, I'll go to Lin Hongying in person, and persuade her to cooperate with us." Ji Yunkong smiled slightly, his eyes full of confidence
