The battle did not last long.
After all, there were many guards, and the strongest of those captains were all defeated by Zhou Lu, and the rest were desperate and couldn't toss any big waves, and in the end, three people were hacked to death with knives, and the remaining four wild bears were seriously injured and tied up and escorted away.
The wild bear struggled as he was carried away, and yelled at Zhou Lu with an angry face:
"Dead fat, bad for us, you can't die well, I won't let you go even if I am a ghost......"
The guards held down the wild bears viciously, and finally took them away, Zhou Lu blinked aggrievedly behind them, the smoke of the battle fell, and the valley was quiet, leaving only those new bandits shivering in the distance, and some bold staring at the simple fat man, with a crazy look of envy and jealousy in their eyes.
The fat man who was training with them not long ago has just climbed to the sky like this?
As the captain of the personal guard of the second village master, he has the right to have money from now on, and he can eat meat and drink wine in large bowls, and women can play as much as they want...... The face of the long-haired bandit was crimson, and his whole body trembled with the stimulation of the beautiful life outlined in his heart.
The guards escorted a few captains who had been seriously injured by wolves and walked far towards the mountain pass, and the new bandits also shrank in the distance, and Zhou Lu stood there alone, suddenly a little dazed.
"Where am I going?"
This fat man suddenly appeared, he still didn't know anything about Heihu Mountain, where he was going to take up his post in a while, who he was going to greet and where the second village master lived? He had no clue at all.
As the captain of the guard, he didn't know what his responsibilities were, who his subordinates were, and who would listen to his command and dispatch.
No one paid attention to him, as if he had just become an extra person. This strangeness made Zhou Lu's heart feel so depressed, and he was anxious to find someone to familiarize himself with the situation.
"Am I going to stay here now, or am I going to go with the guards?"
Zhou Lu was still hesitating, and the group of guards escorting the felons finally realized something, and looked back at Zhou Lu standing there stupidly, the guard frowned, whispered to the person next to him, and then ran back to Zhou Lu with a waist knife.
"Finally someone took care of me. Zhou Lu let out a long sigh of relief. The guard who ran back looked like he was in his early thirties, the stubble on his chin was slightly green, and there was a large tattoo from the right side of his face to his neck, which made him look strong and capable.
Looking at his costume, Zhou Lu guessed that it might be a role like vice captain.
Zhou Lu greeted him happily.
The guard frowned again, with an indifferent and wary expression on his face: "Captain, you haven't settled down yet, please come with me." ”
Suddenly calling the captain to a new bandit, the guard's voice was visibly reluctant.
"Oh!" Zhou Lu nodded innocently, and then asked cautiously: "Are you also the personal guard of the second village master, are you my subordinate?"
Zhou Lu was anxious to find someone he could govern, so that he could fulfill his wish to be powerful.
The guard's eyebrows furrowed even more as he looked at the fat man with the wrong buttons. It's really hard to imagine that such a fat man actually made such a great contribution when the second village master was in distress? From now on, it is this fat man who will become their direct leader?
A new bandit is directly on the throne, so how can the old bandit who has been in the mountains for many years have a balance in his heart, but the fat man is directly appointed by the second village master, and they dare not offend.
Ignorant of the fat man's temperament, the guard nodded in acquiescence with a faint sense of rejection, and then quietly led his hand and said, "Captain, go this way." ”
The guards led Zhou Lu out of the gap in the southwest direction of the mountain col, and faced a winding mountain road that circled deep into the mountain. The two of them walked on the mountain road, passing a treacherous slope along the way, the slope was full of rocks and dangers, and they could faintly sense that there were many hidden piles and crossbows lying in ambush on it.
The feeling of being secretly targeted at made Zhou Lu's hair stand on end, and he secretly gasped for air.
After passing the treacherous slope, and then dozens of feet forward to the mountain road, there is a narrow pass in front, and a thick stone wall in the middle of the pass blocks the pass, and only a wooden suspension bridge is across the ravine, for the passage to and from guò.
On the pass, seven or eight vicious bandits armed with bone spears patrolled back and forth.
Seeing this, Zhou Lu's face turned white.
In front of it is the hinterland of Heihu Mountain, and this pass should be the walled wall of Heihu Mountain. It's so heavily guarded that even a rabbit running past it can be stared at by a herd of eyes, and it will be very difficult to escape from such a place in the future.
Is it true that you have to take such a big risk for a mere scout mission because of your willfulness?
Is it worth it?
Zhou Lu hesitated.
But at this time, how could he have a way out, the guard in front of him looked back at the fat captain who was standing there in confusion, Zhou Lu had no choice but to keep up: Damn, is it difficult to escape?
Zhou Lu had a angry expression on his face.
The guards led the way across the wooden bridge and straight into the mountain.
After passing the stone wall of the pass, you can see a large hillside, stretching for more than ten miles. On the hillside, you can occasionally see the scattered distribution of caves, some of which are gathered in one place, and some of which are far away.
Those caves are supposed to be where the bandits of Heihu Mountain live, but according to their status level, bandits of different status will live in different areas. Often, the status is high, and the cave supporting facilities will be of a higher level.
The guards led Zhou Lu along the hillside for a long time, until he was far from the densest caves, and came to a secluded mountain wall, on which there was a neat and refreshing cave with an open stone door, facing the sun, and in front of the cave there was a small courtyard made of stones, in which there were all kinds of stone tables and chairs.
Through the open door of the cave, you can see that the cave is ten steps square, the cave is clean and warm, and the stone bed is covered with loose and soft long-haired animal skins, which makes people feel the urge to jump on it and fall asleep.
The guards beckoned Zhou Lu to enter the courtyard and told Zhou Lu that this would be the residence of his captain of the guards in the future, and their guards who were the masters of the second village all lived not far away. The guards also proudly told Zhou Lu, this mountain area is five miles in radius, and it is the residence of the guards of the two villages.
The guard asked Zhou Lu to familiarize himself with the environment, and then, he ran away and beckoned another thin bandit to bring wine and meat to Zhou Lu, put the wine and meat on the table, and the guard and the thin bandit respectfully retreated together.
"Hey......"
Zhou Lu raised his hand, stopped talking, and saw that the two had come out of the hole, so he withdrew his hand depressedly and scratched his head.
Along the way, in order to inquire about the situation, Zhou Lu enthusiastically asked the guard this and that, but the guard always kept silent, and was not indifferent to Zhou Lu's questioning, and only used one or two words to give the shortest answer, which made Zhou Lu, who was in full swing, not depressed.
He could also see that he was a new bandit who suddenly became the captain, and others had not accepted it from their hearts.
