Chapter 221: Starry Night
The group traveled in the starry night, and when they arrived at the town closest to the bandit's den, it was already the second half of the night.
Shi Qing arrived two days in advance, and found a small inn in the town to settle down, Li Qiusui and his party arrived in the town on the front foot, and they rushed over with the news.
"Miss Li?"
The sky was dark, although Li Qiusui was small, he was at the forefront, but it was not difficult for familiar people to find that Shi Qing still shouted tentatively.
"Hmmm! It's us! ”
Li Qiusui spoke, Shi Qing walked over quickly, Li Changlei is Li Qiusui's second brother, Shi Qing recognized it at a glance, as for the few people who followed the Li family brothers and sisters, looking at their appearance, they were helpers who came together.
Since Li Sanzhu's accident, Shi Qing was angry when he saw Li Qiusui, and as soon as he said that the whereabouts of the murderer had an eyebrow, he didn't stop, and came over to inquire first.
Seeing people at this time, Shi Qing snatched the reins of the horse in Li Qiusui's hand, and couldn't help but explain in a low voice, "That Crouching Tiger Cottage is more than ten miles away from here, and there are about 100 people, and there are no villages and towns around Huohuo on weekdays. ”
Li Qiusui waved his hand, "It's too late, let's not talk about this first." Where do you stay? ”
She and Li Changlei relied on their good skills to learn to ride a horse, so they hurried in the dark, gritted their teeth and held on, and they were not left behind by Yufeng, and they were really tired, and they were sleepy and tired.
Moreover, at this hour, when you rush to the "Crouching Tiger Village", the sky should be dark, and you can't take these more than ten people, real knives and guns, face to face with those bandits.
Shi Qing led the people to the inn where he was temporarily staying, "There are so many people here at once, the town is not big, I am afraid of attracting attention, and I don't dare to take the inn down if I startle the snake again." I greeted the shopkeeper in advance and reserved a few rooms. ”
When the group arrived at the inn, Li Qiusui asked for a room alone, and someone carried hot water and brought hot food.
After taking a hot bath, eating and drinking, and sleeping beautifully, the spirit and strength will come back.
During the day, everyone reported each other's names and surnames and knew each other.
Li Qiusui and several people listened to Shi Qing carefully talk about the situation in Crouching Tiger Village, and unanimously said that they would act as soon as it was dark tonight.
……
More than ten miles of mountain road, fast horses and whips also have to take more than half an hour, avoid people along the road, but also do some deployment, the group arrived at the foot of the mountain, the sky was completely dark.
The location of Crouching Tiger Village is indeed unique, whether you are transporting the products of the state city or selling foreign things inward, this place is a must-pass place.
The road to the old nest of Crouching Tiger Village is getting narrower and narrower, and a distance to the entrance of the village can only allow single people to pass through, in fact, it has reached the range of Crouching Tiger Village, they set up sentry posts at intervals, and there are livestock sheds for raising horses.
Shi Qing heard some of these news in advance, Li Qiusui heard the owner of Yuzhuang mention it, and Songyuan beside Fang Gongzi went to Lijia Village, handed her a booklet, and also reminded her.
In this kind of terrain, as soon as someone rides up the mountain, the sentry over there can be found from a distance, and it is really better to be alone than a large number of people.
Li Qiusui spent a lot of time talking and asked several people, including her second brother Li Changlei, to stay in a specific position and stand by, and she really single-handedly sneaked into Crouching Tiger Village under the pretext of exploring the way first and definitely not acting rashly.
In the late autumn season, although the weeds on the mountain are a little yellow, they are as tall as an adult's waist, and Li Qiusui can easily avoid the sentry without deliberately activating his ability.
Touching the village, then it is up to her to play freely.
She didn't wronged good people, she picked a single little minion, knocked her unconscious, dragged her to a place where no one was, woke people up and forced her to ask, "Answer me honestly, and I'll spare your life." ”
The little minions have nothing to do together to drink and brag, he is urgent, it is convenient to come out, his head is dizzy at this time, he is frightened, he doesn't have time to see the face and open his mouth to want to call, and he can't make a little sound.
"No matter how honest you are, believe it or not, I will make you unable to speak in your life?"
Li Qiusui took the dagger and pulled it around the person's neck, she didn't tie the person's hands and feet, let him raise his hand to cover his neck, and felt the blood on his hand, then he knew that he was afraid, and he still couldn't make a sound, so he nodded vigorously with a handful of snot and tears.
Seeing that the person was honest, Li Qiusui casually tapped the man's neck in disgust and asked, "Recently, in the village, have you taken in any criminals wanted by the official office?" ”
"Boom!"
Feeling that he could make a sound, the man hurriedly said, "Yes...... Some! True...... There really is! I heard, I heard that it was a person from the Four Seas Dart Bureau, and I said, I am a brother who worships our boss, I don't know what happened? It's been a few days, and the officials, the officials, are arresting people everywhere, look, it looks like they don't plan to leave for a while......"
stumbled, and finally explained the matter clearly.
It was determined that the group of people who injured Li Sanzhu were here, Li Qiusui no longer had any scruples, threw over a porcelain bottle, and "Eat the contents of it." ”
Seeing that he was still verbose, Li Qiusui squinted, and the dagger in his hand turned in the palm of his hand, and with a casual flick, it sank into the tree behind him.
"Please, please, don't kill me! I haven't done anything bad! I'm going to eat it...... This is ...... eat."
Although I don't know what the evil god gives me to eat, it is clear that if I don't eat it, I will be killed.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he swallowed the pill.
When the man swallowed the pill, he heard Li Qiusui say coldly: "Is your abdomen faintly hot?" Listen to my words and act, you may still have a way to live, otherwise, after three days, you will not be able to get the antidote, and you will slowly die of rotting intestines. ”
"Grandma spare your life! I beg my aunt and grandmother to be a lot, I will be obedient and obedient......"
With the obedient little minion who helped guide the way, Li Qiusui's next actions were much smoother.
I found a random house and lit a fire.
As soon as the fire burned here, many people gathered around this place, and the noisy crowd finally alarmed the people in the village.
Li Qiusui hid in a big tree not far from the fire point, and the little minions who were coerced by her squatted next to her, and whispered to her when he saw someone coming, "That's the three masters in the village, and they can also pull the abacus when they know the words, I heard that before the grass fell, they were the concubines of a big family, because they were dissatisfied with the unfair partiality of the elders in the family, they bought sweat medicine and sprinkled it in the well in the backyard, and set a fire to death at night, so they came to the village." On weekdays, he specializes in giving advice to the big bosses. ”
Li Qiusui didn't plan to help others break the lawsuit at home, at such a long distance, if you want to kill with one blow, you can't throw a dagger.
He drew his bow and arrows and shot them.
With a scream of "ah", the arrow passed directly through the right eye of the third master, and the firefighting crowd suddenly exploded.
"Three masters!"
"Big boss, help!"
"Who? Who's there? ”
"Someone has infiltrated the stockade, run!"
"Help!"
The firelight in the sky, all kinds of noisy shouts for fire and help, mixed with the arrows that could not distinguish the direction, the cottage suddenly became a pot of porridge.
This kind of movement finally led to the real head of the cottage.
Glancing at each other, they all gathered towards the big tree where Li Qiusui was hiding.
Li Qiusui grinned, pulled a branch casually, and fell to another big tree.
With his hands free, several arrows were shot in succession, and even three arrows were fired at once, but the arrows still did not miss.
The body of the little minion who was holding on to the trunk of the tree trembled like chaff, and he almost couldn't hold it and fell.
"Run, run!"
I don't know who shouted, and the bandits fled towards the exit of the cottage.
"Big brother, the people are there! Come, bring me a bow and arrows. ”
Li Qiusui's voice was an arrow, right in the middle of the man's chest, raising his hand and shooting arrows with a bow, no matter how many masters it was, he harvested another life.
"Withdraw! Withdraw! ”
