Chapter 55: Into the Tiger's Den
The second day was fast approaching.
The sun shines on the surface of the lake, and the ripples are shining silver.
A huge boat broke through the waves, crushing the calm lake and splashing waterless.
Su Wuming was dressed in a dark green official robe, standing on the bow of the boat with his hands in his hands, and the small island in the distance of the lookout, but his heart was as turbulent as the surface of the lake.
There is excitement, apprehension, and a hint of anxiety.
Now he has gone deep into the tiger's den, and if he misses the pool, he will die without a place to be buried.
In his good years, he has not yet taken a wife.
When I think of marrying a wife, I can't help but think of Cherry's face.
This woman who is different from everyone in the past gave him a very deep impression.
"Su Changshi is so Yaxing, look at the scenery here."
Shen Chong walked over and stood beside Su Wuming.
Su Wuming turned his head to look at Shen Chong and asked curiously, "Brother Shen has seen the dragon god?" ”
At the mention of the god of dragons, Shen Chong's expression became serious, and he said: "God of dragons, high up, where can I and other ordinary people see, I am just worshipping from afar through the curtain." ”
"However, the god of dragons is tall, and his true body is several feet, which is daunting." As he spoke, he warned Su Wuming again: "When you see the god of dragons, you should be respectful." ”
"Don't worry." Su Wuming asked again, "Do you want to see the dragon god behind the curtain?" ”
Hearing this, Shen Chong was stunned, he had sacrificed to the dragon god for so many years, as if he had really never moved this thought, after all, the real body that was several zhang high was too terrifying, and he had never doubted it.
Su Wuming said again: "Perhaps, behind the curtain is not necessarily the god of dragons. ”
Hearing this, Shen Chong's face changed greatly, he held the handle of the knife in his hand, and said coldly: "Su Wuming, if you dare to be disrespectful again, even if you are Changshi, I will kill you!" ”、
Seeing that Shen Chong seemed to be about to kill at any time, Su Wuming was immediately defeated.
Hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't be excited, don't be excited, that's what I'll say." ”
Only then did Shen Chong let go of the hand holding the handle of the knife and said, "It's better to do so." ”
Although he said this, Shen Chong had a trace of doubt in his heart, he was the priest of the Ray Shrine, with his status and his piety, why had he never been allowed to see the Ray God behind the curtain!
Could it be that there is really a conspiracy behind the curtain?
The two people with different thoughts just stood at the bow of the boat, silently looking into the distance.
"Dock!"
A trumpet sounded, and the ship was towed slowly towards the dock.
As soon as the boat came to the side, several men came over with wooden planks and put them on the eaves.
Shen Chong led the way first and took Zheng Chaoming to the dock.
"Su Changshi, please come here."
The group went straight to the lair of the Ray Shrine.
On the other side, after Su Wuming set off, the rest of the people also converged.
Lu Daqi brought with him a brigade of men and horses, a hundred lightly armored soldiers.
He Xi brought forty elite catchers, and Lu Yong also gathered thirty people.
The commander of the Fei Ji Division carried three boxes and said with a smile: "Come on, divide this Tianzhu incense, meet a crocodile, light one and throw it over." ”
Lu Daqi hurriedly ordered his subordinates to collect them, and each captain got two, and the others were used in a centralized manner.
"You two women are going too?"
He Xi was a little embarrassed when he saw that Qinghong and Pei Xijun were going to follow the ship.
Pei Xijun Dao held his lightly red arm and said, "We naturally want to go, don't worry, we were here to help in the past, and we won't cause trouble." ”
Qinghong nodded, Xue Huan behind him showed his half-sized head, and said with a smile: "He joins the army, I will protect Miss Hao and Sister Qinghong." ”
He Xi was a little helpless, how could these women be so powerful recently, the daughter of Thorn Shi was like this, and so were Pei Xijun and Qinghong in front of him.
It's really hard for him to refuse, after all, these people are all people with backgrounds, and he is just a small member of the army.
Fei Jishi walked over and said with a smile: "He Xi, you don't have to stop it, they can't rest assured." ”
"Fei Lao!" Pei Xijun said shamefully.
It's okay to be light red, after all, it is above board with Zheng Chaoming, and she Pei Xijun hasn't written a word yet, how can she say such a thing in public.
"Oh, you young people, you just don't feel good, you torture yourself with love and love, or you still waste me freely." As he spoke, he took out the wine gourd from his waist and poured it into a sip, swaying on the boat.
Qinghong patted Pei Xijun and said, "Sister Xijun, what Fei Lao said is also a little reasonable, you have to be bold." ”
Pei Xijun looked helpless and said, "Am I not active enough, I followed him to Ninghu, but he still didn't give an attitude." ”
Qinghong bystander Qing, she understood that Lu Lingfeng had love for Pei Xijun, but most of the time he was pretending to be confused, and the window paper between the two had not yet been pierced.
Thinking of this, Qinghong's heart moved, and she smiled: "I have an idea." ”
"What's the idea?"
Qinghong pressed against Pei Xijun's ear and whispered: "Let my family Chaoming help you and give Lu Lingfeng a sense of crisis." ”
Pei Xijun frowned slightly and said, "Is this okay?" ””
By this time, everyone had already boarded the boat.
A group of more than 100 people, divided into three ships.
Lu Yong led his men to land from the landing point marked by Zheng Chaoming, while the regular army rushed directly to the dock, and He Xi took the catcher to respond in the rear, protecting Pei Xijun and others by the way.
On the pier, several Tsuki shrine guards were chatting leisurely.
Suddenly they found two ships coming not far away, and they were a little puzzled, there should be no ships at this time.
"What a guts." The little leader sneered, and as soon as he greeted, more than a dozen people gathered.
"Others on alert, you guys come with me to have a look."
The boat slowly approached the dock, and the little leader stood on the dock and looked at the high boat, but found no one.
"Kill!"
A burst of applause.
Sergeants in iron helmets appeared on the eaves of the ship, with bows and arrows sticking out of the boat, shooting indiscriminately at the guards on the docks.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
The beautiful sound of the bowstring was the call of death, and after a rain of arrows, the dock was full of corpses, and there was silence.
"Login!"
At the bow of the ship, Lu Daqi waved calmly.
The sergeants jumped out of the eaves of the ship and quickly occupied all parts of the docks.
The soldiers appeared, where did the survivors on the dock dare to resist, if the catchers from Ninghu came, they could still go up and fight, but the gap in the equipment of the government soldiers was something that manpower could resist.
He Xi and the group of catchers looked at the scene in front of them and were very shocked.
Chop melons and vegetables, neatly and neatly.
"It's worthy of being my elite Tang Dynasty soldier."
"yes, I can't imagine what the sergeants of the left and right guards will be like!"
"Learn a little bit, and then you can start smarter, but don't let the soldiers underestimate us."
He Xi gave an order, and then beckoned the catchers to get off the boat, collect the corpses, and the work of cleaning up the battlefield became theirs.
After the clearance was completed, Fei Jishi took Pei Xijun and Qinghong to the outside of the ship.
"Looks like it's going well." Fei Jishi laughed.
At this time, Su Wuming was also taken to the cave temple.
