One hundred and four, Wuhang Rebellion
An arrow three feet and an inch long was nailed to the throat of the executioner with a sword, and it was a barbed arrow.
"Yaoli Si Bow and Arrow": Kill the arrow, and die in words. Although it is slightly exaggerated, the viciousness of the killing arrow is terrifying to many veterans of a hundred battles, if it is hit, the barb will be stuck in the flesh if it is pulled out alive, and it can only be ripped off as a whole piece of meat.
However, the arrow hit his throat, which could not be cut under any circumstances, and the hideous expression on his face when he raised the knife froze, and he knelt down weakly, and tried to pull out the arrow with trembling hands, but the arrow could not be pulled out.
Yu Wenzhao felt something sticky dripping onto the back of her neck, and the ghost-headed knife did not fall, but fell off the executioner's hand to the ground, and then he fell headlong on the high platform, the pool of blood gradually spread, and his eyes were still round before he died, facing her face.
The sound of arrows, three in a row, was the sound of the feathered arrows slicing through the air rapidly, and the three arrows each hit the throats of the three executioners on the high platform, and any dodge was futile, even if one of them raised the sleeper in front of him, the same sleeper would be pierced along with the throat.
"The archery of the trifecta...."
The centurion said in a low voice, then drew the war knife at his waist and yelled at his men:
"Someone robbed the Dharma Field!"
He knew the horror of this barrage of arrows, and that a horse archer on the battlefield could deal with two or more opponents in a team of ten or more, and that a foot soldier without a shield or a crossbow could only desperately push a way forward under the rain of arrows, but often ended up dying in the middle of the rush.
The onlookers gasped in unison.
When this plot, which has been repeated thousands of times in acting novels, really happened in front of people, no one dared to believe it, let alone in the heavily guarded Wuhang City.
On the house next to the entrance of the vegetable market, a person once again opened the hard bow in his hand, and the two Hulu on his back were densely packed with arrows, dozens more than the quiver in the Dayao army, and the shape was different.
It is unimaginable that the soldiers guarding next to the execution platform will have a skilled and skilled archer to rob the court, and these people without shields have seen the scene of killing three people with three arrows before, so they dare not advance, so they can only hide in the dead corner blocked by the high platform.
The junior official who had never seen blood a few times since he was a child saw someone robbing the Dharma field, and immediately took off his official hat and blended into the crowd under the high platform, and the archer did not shoot these people who were still swaggering and shouting at the visitors, and after shooting more than ten poorly concealed soldiers condescendingly, he no longer stretched his bow, slipped down from the roof tiles, and disappeared into the crowd of people running and fleeing in the streets and alleys.
However, the crowded people at the entrance of the vegetable market could not disperse for a while, and the few officials who shouted and tried to stop these people did not have the slightest effect.
People who rushed to flee trampled on each other, vendors carrying burdens were squeezed out and trampled on unrecognizable, children cried, women wailed, men scolded angrily.
The soldiers, who tried their best to cover themselves under the high platform, looked up tremblingly, but no more arrows rang out, and when someone approached the companions who had been hit by the arrows, they found that not a single wounded, not even the hands and feet of the arrows.
The centurion who was the leader of them looked at the purple lips and blue face of the arrow-struck, raised his hand, and covered the eyelids of those who had not closed their eyes.
What kind of poison can kill a person in a stick of incense? This centurion, who had traveled all over the world in his early years, did not know, and even if he knew, he would not have time to do anything more.
The person who was still alive and alive died like this, which made the rest of the people feel some sorrow.
"Look at the prisoner, don't let her get away!"
The centurion suddenly remembered something, and shouted to the people around him, and when he looked back at the beheading platform, he saw the corpses of the three executioners on the platform, who had gradually become cold, and did not see the person who was tied up.
He and all his men looked around, but they couldn't find the prisoner in the crowd that was scattering. At this time, some people said that two big men had just caught up from the stage, and they dragged people to the east, and he just wanted to stop them, but the people around him who were moving a little faster were hit by arrows, and they could only watch people being robbed.
"Shi Chang leads the team, ten people in each team, search for me, the city gate is still closed, even if it is three feet to the ground, you have to dig out that person for Lao Tzu!"
Knowing that he probably couldn't keep his centurion position, he yelled at his men, and then sat down.
Jiangzhou Thorn Mansion and Jiangzhou General's Mansion are in the same street and alley lined with wealthy families in Wuhang City, which cannot be regarded as old and dead do not get along with each other, and there is very little movement on weekdays, and the news of someone robbing the Dharma field is as fast as the two.
The former immediately took out the seal of the general of a state and ordered the 3,000 Jiangzhou foot soldiers stationed in the east of Wuhang City to block the roads around Wuhang City and strictly check the passing guests, while the latter ordered the Jiangzhou officials to quickly go out and search for the escaped prisoners from house to house.
Robbing the law field is not a trivial matter, not to mention that the prisoners were let away when they were beheaded in Wuhang City, the capital of Jiangzhou, and the prison beheading officials were removed from the official body to fill the army, and the centurion who was in charge of the garrison of the law field almost lost his head and was sent to the north to serve as a soldier who dared to die, which was almost the same as beheading.
Originally, it was in the eventful winter of Wuhang City, for a time by the rooster and the dog barked, all kinds of gossip circulated in the community, some said that the girl who asked the beheading girl was the only daughter of a traitor who was framed by a traitor, and it was also said that the girl was a certain Qinglou Oiran, and the one who came to rob the law field was the lover, and even more so, it was said that this girl was the heir of a certain destroyed Jianghu sect Yunyun, but it was the closest to the truth.
The Jiangzhou foot soldiers who blocked the roads outside Wuhang City day and night found nothing after more than a month of investigation, and the search inside the city ended without a problem after encountering great resistance when they arrived at the mansions of some wealthy families.
Even the most skilled head catcher in Wuhang City is difficult to distinguish the specific facts from the visitors at the entrance of the vegetable market, and can only roughly infer that the two people who caught up with the execution platform and robbed people are both young people with vigorous skills, and it is very likely that there are remnants of the Yanyulou bandits who are in the realm of martial arts, and the archers who can make Lianzhu also ask some clues from the soldiers under the captain of the city gate, saying that someone was going to enter the city a few days ago, dressed clean and not like a hungry people, and the soldiers guarding the city gate stuffed the money, and let it in, with a bow, and also on the spot。
However, the soldiers defending the city only remembered that there was such a person, and his face and posture could not be described at all, but he could only say that it was an old man, looking at his gait and figure, like a person who had entered the army.
Jiangzhou and the neighboring Huizhou Suzhou, large and small counties all posted portraits of Yu Wenzhao for the arrest of Yu Wenzhao, and offered a reward of 500 hangings, which soon became 800 hangings, and in less than a month, it rose to 1,000 hangings.
This is a rare reward even among the Jiangyang thieves who have a lot of blood debts on their hands, but there are very few people who should respond, maybe Yu Wenzhao is hiding it too well, or the people who saw the Qingli portrait have preconceived ideas in their minds, and they are half-convinced about the description of Yu Wenzhao as a cannibal female demon on the list, so there are few responders.
....
On Songfeng Mountain, listen to the Tao Pavilion.
"Little Guizi, there is nothing more important here than tasting high-quality rosin tea, step back and mention it when you are done entertaining your guests." ”
Gao Xu, who rarely makes a joke, smiled and said to the henchmen who came to report that the guests also smiled just right, and halfway through the tea demonstration, they broke in recklessly, which was indeed undignified.
However, the henchman young man who had been cultivated by Gao Xu for several years did not retreat, but rushed forward and said a few words in his ear very quickly, the face of the mountain lord of Songfeng Mountain changed in a very short period of time, and then returned to normal.
"I beg your pardon for missing you. ”
Squeezed out a reluctant smile at the visitor, Gao Xu followed his henchman out of the Tingtao Pavilion, and the Songfeng Mountain disciples standing outside the pavilion came in and showed an apologetic look to the visitor, and then took over Gao Xu and continued to make tea.
On the mountain road not far away, there was a furious roar, and the unfamiliar Songfeng Mountain disciple shook it, and the boiling water was about to splash on the distinguished guest's body, but the person gathered the boiling water in his palm in a strange way, and then returned to the cup in front of him.
This Songfeng Mountain disciple confessed again and again, but his eyes were placed in the distance outside the pavilion, in the direction where Gao Xu went.
What makes you so out of shape, Gao Xu.
"Waste, stupid, incompetent, even pigs and dogs can do better than this group!"
It was gradually far away from Tingtao Pavilion, and Gao Xu completely released his voice, and after a moment, he realized that the sound on the mountain was far away, so he lowered his voice again, "Is the news accurate?"
"The fast horse in Wuhang City came urgently, eight hundred miles urgently, and the next day it came to the mountain. ”
Gao Xu took the letter handed over by his confidant, and after a cursory look at it, his face turned pale, and then he tore the piece of paper to shreds and let go, and the fragments of paper drifted away under the mountain breeze.
"In Wuhang City, the law field taught a few people from Yanyulou to rob it, what did the people in Wuhang Mansion do to eat? It would not have been a matter if I had killed the little woman early, but I wanted to be born..." Gao Xu's words stopped abruptly, no matter how much he complained, it was an indisputable fact that people were robbed.
He pondered for a moment, and then said to his henchmen who were waiting silently beside him: "Go, find the person who cut the deer platform, tell them that the person has run away, find her, and don't leave her alive." ”
"Ordered. ”
The henchman walked away, Gao Xu was a little tired and supported the rock wall next to the mountain road with his hand, thinking.
Yanyu Building, is it really so difficult to uproot?
