Chapter 147: Escape (Part II)

Fierce Valley was very irritable, and when he woke up, someone found that the prisoner he was escorting had escaped.

He kicked away the soldier who had made the report, went to the open space where the prisoners had been housed, shook the pigtail on the top of his head, and walked around the fence without the slightest sign of damage. It stands to reason that those who can be called masters have taken Huagongsan, and the rest of the small characters are also shackled, and there is no possibility of running away silently.

So, how did these people get out? He frowned and looked at the guards who had passed out.

At this time, several masters who had gone out to look for traces also returned.

"How? Can you see where they are going? Menggu took advantage of his face and asked.

One of the bald men in leather armor just shook his head, and only replied after a while: "My subordinates have searched a radius of ten miles, but they have not found anything. ”

"What does Elder Ge think?" Fierce Valley turned to another thin old man.

The old man squinted his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and said: "How they got out of the barracks alone made the old man puzzled, only found some traces on the southern slope, and then they should have gone west, but unfortunately in this vast grassland, we don't have a falcon, I'm afraid we can't find it." ”

Since the two tracking masters under him had no clues, Menggu was also helpless, looked at the sky, gritted his teeth and ordered the camp to be pulled.

After more than 200 soldiers were busy for a while, the team continued north.

Sitting on the back of the horse, Menggu's brows kept twisting together, carefully recalling what he had seen and heard along the way, hoping to find some clues from it, and suddenly, a figure appeared in his mind.

"Could it be him?" He muttered.

Seeing this, Ge Lao, who was parallel to him, hurriedly asked, "What did you find, my lord?" ”

Fierce Valley said uncertainly: "I've been wondering, why did they choose this place to escape, if they have this ability to escape without knowing it, why don't they act in the town?" ”

"Maybe they're afraid of exposing their tracks, but compared to the grasslands, there are a lot of people in the towns."

"Nope." Menggu just shook his head: "The guards were knocked unconscious, and they didn't hear the slightest noise outside, so it can be said that they acted carefully." But if the cold iron chain is broken, it is not something that a low-level martial artist can do, and the masters have all taken Huagongsan, where do you say their antidote came from? ”

"Someone answered or ......" Ge Lao raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized: "Is it that blind monk?" ”

"Humph!" Menggu snorted coldly: "Whether it's him or not, I remember this person's face clearly, if I meet him again, I have to make him look good......"

"Ahh

Since the Taoist priests of the Truth Seeking Temple left, several idle and involved people also left, and only five monks and Dou Ziang's family of three were left in the same place.

Yuanxing is a complete out-of-town visitor, and it is not clear that the southeast and northwest are not clear. The temples of the five monks have been destroyed, and now he is the backbone of the heart of the supernatural powers, and he has to follow him alive and dead. And Dou Ziang and Sang Mengyu had nowhere to go.

In the end, Yunzhou definitely couldn't go back, so he had to continue to march west. Wait until you get out of the grassland, and then turn south to settle in Liangzhou.

Originally, I was still a little worried, afraid that the traces would be chased by someone if they were not clean, but after a long morning, there was no shadow of the pursuers behind them, and everyone's hearts fell completely.

It's noon, and it's time to eat.

In order to make it difficult to catch up with the army yesterday, although Yuan Xing and Sang Mengyu brought some dry food and jerky, this thing is definitely not enough for so many people to eat.

And for fear of being seen, I didn't dare to raise a bonfire to barbecue game. In the end, it couldn't, Sang Mengyu's family of three ate jerky, and the remaining six bitter monks could only eat four steamed buns with some wild vegetables.

I was in a hurry before, and there was little communication between the people. At this time, when he was idle, Yuan Xing naturally wanted to ask the details of these five monks.

It turned out that they were all from a small temple called Yuanjue Temple in Yunzhou, which was not a sect of rivers and lakes, so the most powerful of the five monks was only worthy of the third order. The remaining four people can only barely be regarded as good at fists and feet, and the reason why they are in trouble is completely involved. No wonder they must follow fate. In fact, even if the five of them are tied together, they may not be the opponents of the steppe bandits. And the fate that can use the divine foot pass has become a top master in their eyes.

It's true that the poor monk is the best, but he doesn't dare to call himself a master. After listening to their story, Yuan Xing silently complained that the real master was pretending to be a little woman.

He looked at Sang Mengyu, who had completely fallen into Dou Ziang's arms, and couldn't help but pout his lips secretly. An evil sect is an evil sect, and it has no regard for secular etiquette, so there are children and a group of monks. And Dou Ziang, even if you are in modern times, don't you even pay attention to it in ancient times? This love story is sour, and I am really embarrassed to say anything.

I didn't eat enough, and the dog food was stuffed into my stomach, so who could I reason with.

He turned his head, unwilling to pay attention to the greasy and crooked couple, who knew that they had enough affection and affection, and began to talk about each other's encounters, and they didn't intend to hide it from others.

They don't have to listen deliberately, and their conversation doesn't come to their ears at all.

"Mengyu, I'm sorry, the black scroll you asked me to keep was searched by Master."

"It's okay, if it weren't for that scroll, I wouldn't have heard from you, I'm afraid I'd have to thank your master."

"But after all, you worked hard to get it, and I really don't want to go." Dou Ziang sighed repeatedly.

"Good enemy, people have followed you, and you can't go back to the Reverse Pavilion, it's useless to ask for that scroll. Anyway, it's just a black painting that no one can understand, and no one in the Mida Temple has been able to understand it for many years, and it's gone. Sang Mengyu comforted softly: "You might as well think about our girl's name, she is almost three years old, and she doesn't even have a big name, what a joke?" ”

"Okay, I'm going to ...... that."

Yuan Xing didn't have the heart to listen to it anymore. Reel? Still black paintings? Why is this thing so familiar?

"Could it be another Legacy Scroll?" The golden cicada appeared.

"So what? Considering that the scroll was already in the hands of the government, it was useless to think about it. Yuan Xing sighed in his heart, and when he was also fated, although he heard Sang Mengyu say that he had taken something from Mida Temple on the earth that day, he didn't care. And now that the scroll is no longer there, and he can't afford to offend the government, it can be seen that he has no chance with himself, and thinking too much will only add trouble, so it is better to have no such thing.

Jin Chan may also think it makes sense, so he won't say more.

Although everyone felt that the pursuers could not be killed, they did not dare to take it lightly, after a short rest, they continued to hurry, and it was half a day, they went deep into the grassland not far away, and they were on the border of Yunzhou, so by dusk, they had already seen the mountains in front, according to Sang Mengyu, as long as they crossed the mountain, it was the boundary of Liangzhou.

And just when Yuanxing and the others were looking for a place to spend the night by the moonlight, Menggu and the others were camping.

In the middle of the night, a southerly wind blew from the grassland, and the gale blew the grass to the side, and dark clouds covered the sky, covering the moon entirely.

The camp was originally silent, but suddenly a scream was heard far away in the night sky, and a flock of resident birds were also frightened and flew up, and the soldiers in the village all rushed out with weapons. Before the location of the screaming could be found, another howl arrived.

"Light the torch! Gather in the open space! Fierce Valley rushed out with his clothes on, obviously realizing something, and ordered with a solemn face.

The soldiers were well trained, and in a few moments, the whole camp was as bright as day.

Menggu counted the number of people and saw that the soldiers under him were basically there, but the guards outside the camp did not return, I am afraid that there was more luck than lucky.

He was about to say something, but he didn't expect that one after another soldiers in the team fell down foaming at the mouth, and after a few struggles, they didn't move.

"Someone poisoned." Menggu's face changed, and he hurriedly took out his horse chopping knife and was on guard.

It's a pity that he and a group of innate masters were not affected by the drug for the time being because of their profound skills, but the soldiers around them were miserable, falling to the ground one after another, and half of the soldiers fell to the ground and died after a while.

"Despicable." He scolded, and then shouted: "Who dares to plot against the imperial army? ”

A light laugh sounded, and under the light of the fire, two men and a woman finally slowly appeared. The woman's face was extremely beautiful, and she was full of enchantment under the backdrop of a tight white dress, and she was charming when she walked.

The two men behind him followed in unison, both wearing black suits, and the long swords in their hands were still dripping blood, and it was obvious that the two screams before were caused by these two people.

Menggu looked at the golden triangular pendant hanging from the woman's waist and sneered: "Reverse Pavilion? It's really bold, aren't you afraid that the court will sweep your mountain gate away? ”

"Who's going to get out tonight? Court? Can the court still find a dead person to question? The woman's eyes swept widely, looked at everyone in the room carefully, and then chuckled: "Besides, who said there are only three of us?" As he spoke, he raised his wrist slightly.

A man behind her hurriedly took out a whistle and put it in his mouth, and after a sharp whistle, there were whistles in response from all directions, one after another, and I don't know how many people were ambushed around.

"It seems that you have been prepared...... Menggu's eyes shrank, but before his words fell, the saber in his hand slashed behind him.

With a "bang", the clash of weapons snapped, and his saber struck together with a judge's pen.

"Ge Tiangao, it turns out that you really poisoned it." Menggu scolded viciously: "The court is not thin on you, and I trust you in vain, and I ordered you to check the water source, but I didn't expect you to be a traitor." ”

"Not thin?" Holding the judge's pen in his hand was the thin old man who was called Ge Lao by Menggu during the day, and a hint of mockery appeared on his wrinkled old face: "The old man is a person who is in the Reverse Phase, but he is not a dog slave of you barbarians. ”

"Okay, now that this guard commander has been poisoned, why should Elder Ge bother talking to a dying person?" The woman in white spoke.

That Ge Lao seemed to respect her very much, and when he heard that he was no longer entangled with Menggu, he flew back to the woman's side with a false move, and saluted with his fists: "Ge Tiangao has seen the left protector. ”

The woman also returned the salute, then straightened up and looked at Menggu, seeing that his face was getting paler and paler under the firelight, and the cold sweat on his face was left like rain, and chuckled again: "Let's just wait for them to have poisonous hair, and save your hands dirty." After a pause, he suddenly asked, "Now that Ge Lao has the whereabouts of that scroll, can he see Sang Mengyu?" ”

"No, I didn't." Ge Lao shook his head and muttered: "I saw her legendary little lover, but unfortunately I was rescued last night." ”

"Oh? Could it be Sang Mengyu's hand? ”

"I don't know if she's involved. This group of people went west, either to Liangzhou or to Saiwai. ”

"Hmph, I really want to see who actually hooked the holy daughter of my sect over, so that she dared to betray her master." The woman snorted softly, then looked at the remnants of the camp, seemed to lose patience for a moment, and waved her hand back.

Immediately, dozens of shadows approached the camp in all directions, gradually stepping into the range of the firelight.

"You're going to regret it." Menggu suddenly shouted, and then made an unbelievable movement, he clenched his left hand into a fist, and suddenly knocked on the acupoint on his chest.

The woman in white's face changed greatly: "It's not good." One jumped over, but unfortunately she couldn't react too late.

Menggu didn't know what secret method was used, his originally pale face suddenly became ruddy, and his fierce eyes swept the woman and Ge Lao, but he didn't say more than half a word, his body jumped high and backwards, and a few ups and downs came out of the crowd's encirclement, this action was too fast, and the surrounding people couldn't react at all.

"Chase." The woman gritted her teeth and shouted, and the white figure rushed out after her.

Ge Lao didn't dare to hesitate, and also used light skills to keep up.

Leaving only the two men in black behind the woman, they stared at each other for a moment, and walked towards the remaining soldiers step by step.

"Do it, don't leave a single one."

As soon as he said this, the masters of the Reverse Phase Pavilion outside raised their weapons one after another and surrounded them, and the encirclement became smaller and smaller.

Among them, there are nearly ten innate martial artists who have been following Menggu, but they have been poisoned, and they have no means to save Menggu's life, although they can barely resist for a while. But the more they exercise, the faster the toxins flow through the body.

With a "plop", a thing rolled to the ground, and the soldiers with unbearable abdominal pain and despair in their hearts only felt that their faces were wet, and one of the masters had fallen to the ground and turned into a headless corpse, flying sideways into the air, and the broken neck spurted out of the foul blood. A rain of blood was formed, drenching them.

The air seemed to freeze, and the only sounds were the wails of the poisoned and dying and the "crackling" of pine resin torches. In the night wind, the flickering flames cast the shadows of various weapons onto the ground in front of the crowd, and the strange reflection of the sword twisted strangely under the shaking firelight, reflecting on everyone's face, transforming into a strange expression, with despair, fear, and even a hint of relief......
