Volume 1 Battle in the Sand Garden Chapter 63 A Narrow Road Encounter
Out of Erbium Town, Qin Zhong protected Wang Langzhong's master and apprentice and went straight to the north. There was a lantern hanging on the car, and the dim light swayed, and it could not reflect the light the size of a palm. There were no pedestrians along the way, only the rhythmic creaking of donkey carts.
Qin Zhong rode a horse and followed behind the car, and just in case, he took off the iron spear and carried it in his hand. From time to time, I looked left and right, but I couldn't see anything clearly.
At this time, the window behind the car was gently pushed open, and Xiao He poked his head out of it.
"What do you carry on horseback?" Xiao He looked at Qin Chong's horse, with four or five large bags hanging on his horse, and asked curiously.
"Money." Qin Zhong raised his hand and patted the burden, and said seriously.
"Cut." Xiao He pursed his lips and didn't believe it at all. Suddenly, Xiao He remembered the gifts sent by Lei Gongbao again, but there was a yard of them at that time. It is gold, silver and satin, and it can dazzle the eyes of flowers. "The gift of Lei Gong Castle, really don't you want it?"
"Those things are hot." Qin nodded and said.
In the evening, Shi Yong and the others discussed how to dispose of those gifts, and Xiao He also heard it next to him. The old ghost advocated taking the gold and silver, and the rest was burned; Liu Hou said that the herbs were given to Wang Langzhong, and the rest was distributed to the people of Erbium Town; Shi Yong said that they all stayed in the courtyard, and no one moved.
"The gift of Lei Gong Fort is not easy to receive." The soldiers who don't love money, Xiao He hasn't seen it yet. Because of this, she has a better impression of Qin Chong.
According to the old ghost's analysis, the gift sent by Lei Gongbao may have two meanings. One is to test the character of the horseman, if it is a person who is greedy for money, Lei Gongbao will generally take the means of bribery; The second is to bury a poisonous arrow, and if you turn around, you can frame the Xiaoqi camp.
At that time, Shi Yong accepted the gift under the guise of confusing Lei Gong Fort.
From the town of Erbium to Pucheng, it is about thirty miles. But it is difficult to walk at night, and the little donkey cart is not fast at all. Qin Revaluation touched it, and at such a speed, it would be dawn when he arrived in Pucheng County. The key is that on the road, you have to guard against Lei Gong Fort to intercept and kill.
According to everyone's analysis, if there is an interception in Lei Gong Fort, it should be on the way to the west. However, no one can say for sure that if you go north, you will not encounter Fort Leigong. After all, there is also a road to the north to Yanzhou, and it is closer. It's just that the roads are more difficult to navigate.
It's tiring to be in good spirits all the time. After walking for about two hours, Qin Chong felt sleepy, sat lazily on the horse, closed his eyes slightly and nodded and snooze. The iron spear was no longer carried, but was crossed by the iron lintel.
"Little Brother Qin." At this time, Wang Langzhong turned around and shouted.
"Huh?" Qin Chong was excited, and he came to his senses. "What's the matter with Wang Langzhong?"
"Let's rest." Wang Langzhong smiled bitterly, "It's really impossible to stay up at night like this." ”
"Okay." Qin Zhong pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. Then he looked into the distance, looking for a place to rest.
At this time, they are already quite far away from Erbium, so there should be no more interceptions, right? Qin Zhong guessed in his heart. In fact, he also wanted to rest, and he didn't care about the combat power of Lei Gong Fort at all. If you don't come, if you really come, it's just a big deal.
One hundred and ten paces ahead, a dark forest is just right to rest.
"Just rest in the woods, I'll go over and have a look." Qin Zhong said, and ran forward with a clamp on the horse's belly.
The forest was on the side of the road, and under the faint starlight, it was a faint color. The breeze swayed, and the leaves rattled softly. The wild birds in the forest are crying softly, and there are frogs and unknown insects, which is very lively. Qin Zhong probed at the edge of the forest, but did not look deeper.
Dismounted and cleared out a place, picked up some dry branches, and lit a fire.
The bright light of the fire immediately dispelled the gloom in the forest. By the light of the fire, Qin Zhong saw the situation of the forest clearly, and the ground under his feet was trampled very flat, thinking that passers-by often rested here. Looking around, piles of ashes were scattered, and there were traces of fires everywhere.
This forest is quite large, or maybe the darkness affects the vision, and there is no edge at all when you look at it.
In a moment, the donkey cart arrived. Wang Langzhong often walks the rivers and lakes, and sleeping in the open is a trivial matter. He unloaded the donkey very skillfully, led it to the side and tied it to the tree, and let the sweaty donkey rest and rest. Then pat the carriage and wake up Xiao He, who was asleep.
Xiao He got out of the car in a daze, yawning while stretching his body without any image. Along the way, she was suffocated in the cramped carriage, and her bones were about to be torn upside down. "Master, why do you want to wake up people? It's a pity that I've only eaten half of the pig's trotters. ”
Xiao He shook his hands and coquettishly with the master, clicked his lips, and was still reminiscing about the pig's trotters in his dreams.
Qin Chong had a strange look on his face, and he couldn't hold back so that he didn't laugh out loud. The little girl is estimated to be sleep hysteria, and she has long forgotten that there is such a person as Qin Chong. Wang Langzhong shook his head with a wry smile, and reprimanded angrily, "You stupid girl, why don't you wake up quickly?" Someone is watching. ”
"Who?" Xiao He turned around abruptly, and he came face to face with Qin Chong.
"Pig's trotters are so fragrant." Qin Zhong smiled evilly and teased Xiao He.
"Ahh Xiao He really woke up in fright, and let out a scream suddenly.
Qin Chong covered his ears in pain, turned around and fled. Xiao He was ashamed and annoyed, and he chased after Qin Chong, looking like he was gritting his teeth. Wang Langzhong made a fuss with them, laughing and laughing, and didn't care about them. He took his felt and spread it on the ground, and began to meditate with his eyes closed.
Finally caught up with Qin Chong, kicked his calf twice, and refused to give up.
"You don't see anything." Xiao He threatened.
"I didn't look, I didn't see, I didn't see anything." Qin Chong said soft words in his mouth, but he had a bad smile on his face.
"You're still laughing? Are you still laughing? Xiao He got annoyed again, raised his foot and kicked wildly.
"Don't laugh, don't laugh, I promise, I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything." Qin Zhong hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Hmph." Xiao He glared at Qin Chong fiercely, turned around and got into the car.
Qin sighed, as relieved. Heart, the little girl is really offended. Obviously, she was out of trouble, but she blamed Qin Chong, which was unreasonable, unreasonable. With a belly, he found a big tree and sat on the ground, closing his eyes and resting himself.
Not long after he sat down, he heard Xiao He get out of the car again and walked towards him.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao He holding a piece of felt, stuffing it into his arms hard, turning his head and returning to the car.
"Thank you, Miss Xiaohe." Qin Zhong unfolded the felt and said to the donkey cart.
"Hmph." There was a coquettish hum in the carriage, and there was no movement.
The woods were quiet, and there were not many branches on the fire, and it seemed that it was about to burn out. But at this moment, Qin Chong's ears moved, as if he sensed something, and he fell to the ground violently, his ears touching the ground. Faintly, I could hear footsteps coming from far and near, towards the woods.
Qin Zhong jumped up and grabbed the iron spear. A stampede put out the fire and walked briskly to the edge of the forest. He didn't wake up Wang Langzhong, he wasn't sure who was coming, so there was no need to be too nervous. Perhaps, like them, they are also passing?
By the light of the stars, I vaguely saw a group of people coming from north to south. When he got a little closer, Qin Chong finally recognized that it was a group of Taoist priests, seven or eight men and women, with swords in their hands or behind their backs. They are light and athletic, and they walk much faster than ordinary people.
Qin Chong's brows furrowed, unable to judge where this group of Taoist priests came from. However, because he killed the Taoist priest during the day, he was defensive against the Taoist priest and was very reluctant to intersect with the Taoist priest again. Seeing that these people were getting closer and closer, Qin Chong slowly tightened his grip on the iron spear behind the hidden tree.
"Second senior brother, let's rest here, the little sister really can't walk." A female Taoist priest said in a coquettish voice.
"Yes, Second Senior Brother, let's rest and go. Uncle Shi said, just arrive at dawn. Someone else persuaded.
"Okay, just rest here for a while."
A few people left the main road and walked towards the woods. Qin Chong sighed secretly, very helpless in his heart. I don't want to intersect but there is an intersection, and the more I am afraid of something, the more I am afraid. As long as these Taoist priests enter the forest, they will naturally find that the carriage has no way to hide, but can only face it.
Qin Chong's figure moved slightly, and he was immediately noticed by the Taoist priests.
"Who? Who's there? A Taoist priest drew his long sword and asked in the direction where Qin Chong was hiding.
"It turned out to be a few Taoist leaders." Qin Chong stood up, arched his hand slightly, and said, "Let's miss the stay in a hurry, and rest here." ”
"Oh, that's right." The Taoist priest withdrew his sword and said, "We are also in a hurry, and we want to rest here for a while, so there is a lot of disturbance." ”
"Well said, well said." Qin Chong arched his hand and responded politely.
Qin Chong was about to turn around and walk away, but he saw a person rushing out of the group of Taoist priests, stepped forward in a few steps, and looked at Qin Chong carefully. Suddenly, Qin Zhong's heart tightened, and before the Taoist priest could speak, he had already recognized this person, who was the middle-aged Taoist priest who fled at noon.
The Taoist priest also recognized Qin Chong, and when he got into a loud shout, he drew his sword and stabbed at Qin Chong.
"It's him, it's him, he killed the seventh junior brother." The Taoist priest shouted loudly while his sword was like a torrential rain.
Hula, seven or eight Taoist priests all drew their long swords, shifted their shapes, and surrounded Qin Chong. didn't shoot all of them, but guarded the Quartet to prevent Qin Chong from escaping. There were two female Taoist priests who ignored it, scolded, and joined the battle group.
Qin Chong had already been on guard in his heart, but he didn't panic, he shook his spear and fought with the three of them.
As soon as they made contact, they only heard two crisp sounds of "Ding Dong, Ding Dong", and the long swords in the hands of the two female Taoist priests were knocked out of their hands by the iron spears. Frightened, the two female Taoist priests turned over and retreated in shock, staring at Qin Chong in disbelief for a while.
And at this moment, the middle-aged Taoist priest also suffered a big loss. When he saw Qin Chong at first glance, he was furious for a while, and he actually forgot about Qin Chong's divine power. Seeing that Qin Chong's spear was sweeping, the long sword stood up and wanted to block it. As a result, he was repelled by a strong force, and his arm was numb and unconscious.
In an instant, three people attacked Qin Chong, two of them took off their weapons, and one was shocked back.
The middle-aged Taoist priest finally calmed down, remembered the arrow that Qin Zhong shot and killed his junior brother, and unconsciously a layer of cold sweat soaked out of his back. Although he is a teenager in front of him, he is a ruthless killing god with natural power. If you really accidentally fold it here, it will be too much of a loss.
Thinking like this, the middle-aged Taoist priest slowly took a step back, no longer fighting to attack, but just glared at Qin Zhong angrily.
"Hmph." A Taoist priest snorted coldly and walked towards Qin Chong.
"Second senior brother, be careful, this kid has a lot of strength." The middle-aged Taoist priest reminded.
"It's just brute force." The second senior brother was extremely disdainful of this, and kept his feet until he was in front of Qin Chong. Qin Zhong looked at this person, about fifty years old, with three strands of long hair under his chin, quite the demeanor of a fairy. It's just that at this time, his face was gloomy, revealing a cold killing intent.
"If you throw away your weapons and tie your hands, the old way may give you a good time."
"Hit it, don't get out." Qin Chong didn't have any good feelings for these Taoist priests.
"Evil obstacles, the old way will accept you." Lao Dao's eyes were angry, his sleeve robe flicked, and he slapped Qin Chong's top door with one palm.
Qin Chong's feet made a mistake, and the iron spear wrapped a jade belt around his waist, and a sharp roar swept towards Lao Dao's waist and abdomen.
Lao Dao was not hard-connected, his body turned around and avoided the spear, and he hit Qin Chong's waist ribs with a palm. In an instant, the two fought together. The iron spear was powerful and heavy, and the piercing roar was like a raging storm, and the gun did not leave the old way. The old man flickered and moved, and his body was extremely flexible.
More than ten rounds have passed, and the two have not been able to connect in a single way, as if they are practicing martial arts. However, Qin Chong was in the middle of it, but his heart was in his throat, and he became more and more cautious. At this time, he only felt more and more aggrieved, and he had nowhere to focus on his strength.
Lao Dao relied on his body to fight with Qin Chongyou, but he took advantage of it.
Between the lightning and flint, Lao Dao slapped his palm again. Qin Zhong raised the gun horizontally, but he knew that the old Taoist palm was halfway through, but suddenly changed his palm into a claw, grabbed it obliquely, and grabbed Qin Chong's wrist, pushing it with a belt, Qin Chong only felt a strong collision, and hurriedly retreated and flashed.
But it was too late, Lao Dao flashed up, and a fierce palm hit Qin Chong's lower abdomen.
"Bang." Qin Chong's abdomen was in severe pain, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his body was knocked out. landed with a bang, and took four or five steps back to stabilize his figure.
Lao Dao jumped up and chased him over, not giving Qin Chong a chance to breathe at all.
