Chapter 351: People Are Not as Good as Popularity (I)
Seeing that the city lord actually chose this road, Cheng Long, who followed closely by Liu Hao's side, muttered: "It seems that the city lord rarely goes out of the city, and he doesn't know how to go down this road closely, isn't this a blind delay? Choose this road at least one more day." ”
Liu Hao, who was pushing the cart in front of him, smiled and whispered to him: "You kid knows what to say, don't talk too much, don't do too much, the city lord will take us there, let's go there, remember my words, when you encounter a situation, run immediately, run as far as you can." ”
Cheng Long was a little unhappy in his heart, but after listening to Liu Hao's words, he still sighed and said, "I know the way." ”
The team continued to move forward, and every time they passed a fork in the road, Liu Hao would pick up a whistle and blow it to inform the withered gold that they had changed their route.
In this way, they went around the mountain road for two days, and on the third day, the lord of the city seemed to have made up his mind, and led the team directly in the direction of return.
The city lord did this, in fact, he gave Liu Hao a secret message, the purpose was to tell him to inform the withered gold to do it, a mountain cliff not far in front of them was the best ambush point, and under normal circumstances, the withered gold would definitely ambush where they would be after receiving Liu Hao's news.
And the city lord's men and horses were already hiding at the bottom of the cliff at this time.
As soon as the withered gold man makes a move, the city lord's people will emerge from the ground, and then the withered gold and his accomplices can be served in one pot.
Seeing the city lord send a signal, Liu Hao did not hesitate, immediately picked up the whistle and blew three long and two short, this signal was to tell the withering gold that the city lord was likely to return to the city and was ready to start.
As soon as he put the whistle down, a small flag appeared on a hill not far away as far as he could see.
I saw that the flag, which shook once on the left and right, disappeared.
Seeing the shaking of this flag, Liu Hao's brows furrowed, because the flag swayed like this, telling him to wait.
It's all come to this point, and he has to wait, which really makes him a little depressed.
Thinking about waiting any longer, I don't know how long it will take to return to the city.
Thinking of this, he turned to Cheng Long and asked, "Brother Long, just this route, how long will it take for us to return to the city?"
Cheng Long looked at the road in front of him, then estimated it and said, "As long as the city lord doesn't make a detour, he should be able to return to the city after half a day's effort." ”
Saying that, he smiled and said, "Why is it that little brother, are you tired, and when you return to the city, brother, I will also invite you to go to Bu Po's place to eat big meat, but this time I can only order a small portion, and my money is almost spent." ”
Liu Hao listened to his words, but he didn't have any modesty, but said: "The small portion is enough to eat, I believe that after I go back this time, you will not only invite me to eat a large portion, but also a double portion." ”
Cheng Long listened to his words, and involuntarily touched his pocket and said aggrievedly: "Little brother, it's okay if you really want to please, but after eating meat, if I don't have anything to eat, you have to take care of me." ”
Liu Hao knew that if he really conspired with the city lord to kill the withered gold this time, Cheng Long would invite himself to a rich meal even if he was hungry for a year, so he just made a joke.
Now seeing his bitter appearance, he felt unbearable again, so he said: "Then forget it, when I go back this time, I will take you to eat, I will treat you, but the city lord said that after this transportation, he will give me some rewards." ”
As the two men spoke, they came to a mountain road surrounded by cliffs.
Coming to this mountain road, Liu Hao knew that this was the place where he and the city lord had pre-booked and where the withered gold might ambush them.
Seeing that he had entered this mountain road, he no longer spoke to Cheng Long, and looked around intently, and whistled again at the same time.
As he whistled, a flag appeared in the corner of the cliff, and then it shook from side to side.
Seeing the dancing of this flag, Liu Hao was depressed, this is the only and best ambush location, why don't they plan to do it here?
After this place, there is a flat river ahead.
Thinking about it, he thought of a possibility, that is, Kushengjin saw that he had taken refuge in the city lord, and now he deliberately said that he would not do it, in fact, the people and horses had already laid an ambush on this cliff, the purpose was to prevent himself from reporting to the city lord.
This possibility, he calculated, in about thirty percent, thinking about it, he was relieved.
Because even if the withered Jin Zhen didn't notify him, he didn't have to worry about directly attacking the convoy later, because he didn't need to inform the city lord at all, this was one of the places they had planned in advance and might be ambushed.
Now there are countless masters on the city lord's side in the vicinity, ready to be on call at any time.
This mountain road is about ten kilometers, and with the strength of their feet, it can be passed in about 20 minutes.
In order to allow them to lay in ambush, the city lord slowed down the speed of his mount and marched forward.
But even so, until they walked out of the mountain road, they did not suffer from the sneak attack of the withered gold.
Seeing this situation, Liu Hao's heart couldn't help but feel a little anxious, what did this withered gold want to do?
Out of the mountain road, the city lord's heart was also a little puzzled, he didn't understand that the withered gold didn't attack them on the mountain road just now.
Thinking about it, his face suddenly changed, and then after muttering a few words to the fat and thin two people beside him, he saw the two of them and quickly left the team, as for going there, no one saw it.
Seeing the fat and thin two leaving, Liu Hao knew that the city lord should have thought of where the withered gold might be ambushed, and now it is called the fat and thin two, to call the people who were previously ambushed under the mountain road to come out, and prepare to meet the city lord again, but this is in front of the horse, where will this withered gold launch an ambush?
After the procession had been marching for about an hour, the city lord suddenly jumped and left his mount, and then saw that the mount he had been riding just now had fallen into a large pit.
The castle lord's mount had just fallen into the pit, and the ground in the middle of the team that followed him suddenly loosened, and several large pits appeared.
Several transports, and a large part of the transport team, fell into the pit.
The city lord, who had fallen back to the ground, saw that the people in the team were starting to panic, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Don't mess around! It's just a few pits." ”
As soon as he roared, everyone immediately fell silent, and a few people who wanted to show their merits immediately organized people and prepared to drag up the transport cart that had fallen into the pit.
At this moment, in front of their team, a group of black-clothed and masked people appeared.
There are about 30 people in this group, all of them are physically strong, and they are not ordinary people at first glance.
When the men appeared, they didn't say anything, but rushed towards them with their knives.
Because the team was still in chaos, many people were hacked to death on the spot before they could react.
As for Liu Hao and Cheng Long, they had already run away at this time, and at the first moment when the pothole appeared, Liu Hao didn't care about the transport vehicles anymore, and ran away with Cheng Long.
Cheng Long followed him as he ran, and asked puzzledly: "Little brother, what are you running?" We are now a guard, and if we don't protect the things transported, we don't protect the city lord, but we will be killed if we go back." ”
Liu Hao took him to a clearing and said, "What do you kid know about Lu Dao, do you know who those black-clothed people are?"
Cheng Long asked suspiciously, "Do you know the way?"
Liu Hao sneered and said, "Those people in black, the people who lead the team are Kushengjin and Wang Xiong. ”
Hearing him say the names of these two people, Cheng Long couldn't help but sigh, and then said, "Little brother, do you know anything about it?"
Liu Hao put on a cool pose and said: "Because all of this is calculated by me." ”
The more Cheng Long listened, the more confused he became, and he simply didn't listen to it, and at the same time, he pulled out the mountain knife he was carrying from his back and walked back.
As he walked, he said: "Little brother, you have killed me, since you know that the Dao is withered gold, how can you take me away? ”
Liu Hao saw that he was going back, so he grabbed him angrily and said, "What are you going to do when you go back? Looking for death? Now there are all masters over there, do you know who Lu Dao Withering Gold invited to rob the goods this time?"
That Zhilu Dao Cheng Long didn't listen to him now, broke free of his hand, and continued to walk back, continuing as he walked: "Who? I care who he is, my purpose is to kill the withered gold, such a good opportunity, but it is not encountered in a hundred years, no matter who it is today, I will kill him." ”
With that, he began to run wildly, and soon he was back at the scene of the fight.
And Liu Hao also followed out out of breath at this time, and when he saw that Cheng Long was about to rush into the battle circle, he shouted and said: "Cheng Long, you stand still!
Hearing the three words Lone Dragon Rain, Cheng Long immediately stopped in place, and then turned to Liu Hao and said, "What are you talking about?
Liu Hao hurriedly caught up with him and said: "I told you not to come, the city lord's spies have already found out, the withered gold has cost a lot this time, please go to the lonely dragon rain, you go now to die, and I tell you, the city lord has already made arrangements, this time the withered gold is dead!
After Cheng Long was sure that there was a lone dragon rain in the team of withered gold, he was a big man and said with a smile: "God really helps me!
With that, he continued to gallop in the direction where the city lord and the others were now.
Listening to Cheng Long's words, Liu Hao was inexplicable, he didn't know what medicine was sold in Cheng Long's gourd, but seeing that he was still walking back, he was heartbroken and followed.
He didn't want to lose Cheng Long, a friend, because he felt that Jackie Chan was a bit like his brother, the Demon Bear King, honest and kind, he liked to eat, and he didn't count people, such a brother is hard to find in the world.
On the other hand, on the side of the city lord, the few people in the transport team were killed in just ten minutes.
Now there are only a few close guards around the city lord.
And now, the city lord was standing in the middle of these guards, and looked proudly at the leader of the group of black-clothed people and said, "Old Ku, you really disappointed me, I didn't expect you to really fight the idea of this batch of strengthening spars. ”
The leader of the man in black was the withering gold, but after listening to the words of the city lord, he did not admit it, but said with a smile: "Lord of the city, who is Lao Ku? I don't know, I just want to tell you, leave this batch of strengthening crystals, I can spare you from death!"
Seeing that he didn't admit it, the city lord didn't say anything more, brushed aside the guards standing in front of him, and said after walking out of the crowd: "Want to strengthen the spar? ”
Kushengjin shook his head and said: "City Lord, you are still as arrogant as ever, I know that you are very skilled, so I specially invited a person with similar strength to you to play with you, do you think I don't know that you and that Liu Hao have conspired? When you transferred your henchmen to the bottom of the cliff to ambush, someone had already told me the news, and now that we appeared on this plain, did you take you by surprise?" It's too late for you to call Black, Fat, White and Thin to call them, and by the time your people come, the owner of these strengthening crystals will already be me!"
Saying that, he was Ha Lu, and Ha Da Lu laughed.
