Chapter 12: Arrested

The tone of the two people's speech was very different from that of the locals, but Ye Ying felt a little familiar, and he suddenly reacted. This voice was very similar to the tone of those bandits who appeared yesterday, "Northern Barbarians", Ye Ying immediately reacted.

Didn't you say that the bandits were all wiped out? Surprised, Ye Ying immediately thought that these people who spoke should be among the bandits who slipped through the net.

I don't know how many people are among the remaining bandits, and I don't know if there are any masters among them, so Ye Ying didn't dare to act rashly. Because if they are caught by these bandits, they are likely to kill people.

Thinking of this, Ye Ying leaned against the cliff wall motionlessly, and even the sound of breathing became softer.

After another pillar of incense, the sound of the conversation above slowly ended, and then there was the sound of footsteps, which became farther and farther away.

A pillar of incense slowly passed, and during this time, Ye Ying also got confirmation from their conversation. These people talking on the cliff are indeed the fish that have slipped through the net among the bandits. The officers and soldiers killed most of their comrades, and even the cottage where they lived was burned, so they had to hide in this inaccessible deep mountain, escape the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, and save their lives.

clarified the identities of these people, and also made a firm decision, hiding here first and waiting for the bandits to go away. And then according to the traces they left behind, find the place where they are hiding,

For the sake of safety, after the sound above completely disappeared, Ye Ying waited for a while before slowly climbing up the cliff.

Standing on the cliff again, Ye Ying turned his head to look around, and saw that there was indeed no one around. The cliff was close to the branches in the direction of the woods, and there were obvious signs of people passing through, and he hurriedly walked in that direction.

According to Ye Ying's thoughts, he quietly followed, and when he found out where the bandits were hiding, he went to the barracks to tell Chen Zhi about them.

Ye Ying had just walked into the woods, and suddenly saw a figure flickering in front of him, and a figure suddenly appeared from behind a big tree in front of him, standing in front of Ye Ying with a smile.

Ye Ying was taken aback, and after seeing this person's appearance clearly, his heart was half cold, because the person who appeared in front of him was a small leader among the bandits that day.

He had seen the scenes of these bandit leaders fighting with Ningyuan's general Chen Zhi, as well as the second master and others. Although their kung fu is not as good as their masters, they are obviously above themselves.

Between the lightning and the flint, Ye Ying quickly made a decision, since he couldn't beat it, he would escape. So he turned quickly, ready to flee first out of the woods, and then with his familiarity with the terrain.

"If you want to escape, you have to see if the big knife in your grandfather's hand agrees?" At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in front of Ye Ying, startling him to stop immediately.

The owner who saw the voice clearly, Ye Ying secretly screamed badly, because the person who appeared in front of him was another person among the bandit leaders that day.

The current situation is very unfavorable to Ye Ying, but it is not his character to be restrained, he took out the sickle of collecting medicine from his back basket, and quickly rushed towards the enemy in front of him, ready to kill a way to rush out.

The bandit leader in front of him obviously didn't expect that such a young man in the mountains would have a good kung fu. It wasn't until Ye Ying's scythe hit him that he reacted.

Ye Ying's scythe was already close at hand, and the bandit leader only had time to turn sideways and dodge the knife that attacked his head and neck. But his shoulder was slashed by a scythe, taking away a piece of flesh with him.

One was wounded in front of him, and the other was a child who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, and the bandit leader couldn't hold his face, and he didn't care about his injuries. There was a vicious light in his eyes, and he stared at Ye Ying fiercely.

Ye Ying's heart was also very disappointed, he originally wanted to use this move to injure the enemy so as to leave a way for himself to escape, but now he was only slightly injured.

"Haha, Shujia, where have you practiced kung fu, even such a child can hurt you." At this time, the bandit leader behind Ye Ying also chased after him and said loudly behind.

"Hmph, this little guy actually has good kung fu, and it can be seen that he has the guidance of a famous teacher." The bandit leader called Shujia said indignantly, and then waved the big knife in his hand and slashed down at the top of Ye Ying's head.

This big knife is still some distance away from Ye Ying, and he can hear the whirring wind, Ye Ying knows that under the anger of this bandit leader, this move must be extraordinary, and it is not something that he can stop.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly used his fastest body technique and quickly retreated to the rear. In the middle of this lightning and flint, the big knife had already slashed down on Ye Ying's cheek, flying by less than half an inch away from Ye Ying's cheek.

The opponent's kung fu was much higher than Ye Ying's, and just one move made him break out in a cold sweat.

Finally flashed the other party's knife, and when Ye Ying was about to find a way to escape, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and a big knife was already leaning against his neck.

Needless to say, the owner of this big knife must be the bandit leader behind him. Of course, his neck couldn't block the sharp big knife, and in desperation, Ye Ying had to stay still and let the other party dispose of it.

"Hmph, you kid dared to hurt your grandfather in the armor, Lao Tzu will send you to see Hades now." Seeing that Ye Ying was controlled, the bandit leader named Shujia hurriedly rushed over, raised the big knife in his hand, and slammed it towards Ye Ying's head and neck.

At this time, Ye Ying had no other way, so he had to close his eyes unwillingly and wait for the fate of being slashed by a big knife.

"Wait, this little guy can't be killed!" At this moment, the bandit leader behind Ye Ying said.

"Jiagu, what do you mean? This little bastard will not be spared, and if he reveals where we are hiding, we will not be able to save our lives. Shujia put away the big knife in his hand, and there was obviously some unwillingness in his tone.

"Don't you think it's a little strange that this mountain village kid has such kung fu? Also, do you think about where we met him? The bandit leader named Jiagu said slowly.

"Oh, I remember, when I was fighting with the officers and soldiers of Daning that day, this little bastard was with a few generals. That means that he has a relationship with these officers and soldiers, and he can't spare his life. The armor thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered.

"I said that you guy, you can't change your impulsiveness, keep this kid's life, maybe he will become our talisman." Jiagu said again.

"Then listen to you! Tell him to take it back, and it's up to the boss to decide. Shujia calmed down, thought clearly about the meaning of Jiagu's words, and put away the big knife in his hand.

After reaching a consensus, the two escorted Ye Ying, shuttled through the mountains and forests, walked for about two pillars of incense, and stopped in front of a relatively hidden cave, which seemed to be the hiding place of these bandits.

This cave leaf eagle has been here before, and it is relatively dry, the space is relatively open, and it can be ventilated, so it is indeed a good place to hide.

Jiagu and Shujia walked into the cave with Ye Ying, only to see that the cave was usually pitch black, but at this time there were actually torches, and there were more than a dozen bandits sitting or standing in the cave. Seeing someone coming in, they all turned their heads to look at Ye Ying who was escorted in.

On one of the innermost platforms of the cave, there was a thick layer of hay, on which lay a man. Because he was lying with his back outward, Ye Ying didn't see the appearance of this person clearly, but looking at the dress, it was exactly the same as the bandit leader Hu Tianxiong he saw last time.

"General...... Boss, we're back! The man named Jiagu shouted respectfully.

Hearing Jiagu's voice, the person lying on the platform turned over, looked at the people who didn't see it, and said softly: "How are the people who asked you to contact us?" ”

"Boss, we have done our best, all we see are the corpses of our dead brothers, not a single living person, and we have not received any response to the secret marks left behind."

This time it was the man in the armor who spoke, and his voice was very respectful, even with a hint of fear. It seems that this person who is called the boss should be very ruthless in his methods, so that his subordinates are full of fear.

Ye Ying, who was standing at the entrance of the cave, had already seen clearly at this time that the person lying on the platform was Hu Tianxiong, the bandit leader of Tianxiong Village that day.

"There are so many brothers, and they are very familiar with this mountainous area, so why hasn't anyone escaped?" Hu Tianxiong's voice was not loud, but his dissatisfaction could be clearly heard from his tone.

"Boss, it's not good for us, but we have caught someone, you may be interested." Jiagu said respectfully, and at the same time pushed Ye Ying, who was standing on the side, forward.

Only then did Hu Tianxiong move his gaze to the entrance of the cave and look at Ye Ying, with a puzzled look in his eyes. I hadn't seen Ye Ying in the county government that day, and during the war, his attention was focused on Chen Zhi and a few other good hands, and he had no time to pay attention to a child.

"Such a mountain village boy, what do you bring him for, just deal with it directly." Hu Tianxiong said with some dissatisfaction.

"The boss didn't know that this kid was the kid who went out of the county jail cell that day and passed the news out. Also, this kid still has a good kung fu, now that I think about it, Zhu You, who pretended to be the head of the county government, was most likely killed by him, and he also stood in the center of the battle that day, and was obviously a more important figure. Seeing that the boss was a little dissatisfied, Jiagu hurriedly said with some trepidation.

"What you said is true?" Hu Tianxiong became interested and asked with some doubt.

"Boss, what Jia Gu said is true, I also saw with my own eyes that day, this kid stood with a person who looked like a military advisor, and killed our two brothers." The man named Shujia was afraid that Hu Tianxiong would not believe it, so he hurriedly said on the side.

"Come here!" Hearing that the armor was like this, Hu Tianxiong was a little convinced, he sat up with the support of a bandit, and waved his hand at Ye Ying who was not far away.

Seeing that there were bandits all around, it was very difficult to get out, Ye Ying knew that now was not the time to be a tough guy, so he slowly moved his body and walked in the direction where Hu Tianxiong was.

"You kid is a little timid, but you didn't pee your pants in fear." Hu Tianxiong looked at Ye Ying standing in front of him, and when he saw that he was not as fearful as ordinary people when he saw them, he also became interested in Ye Ying.

It was the first time Ye Ying saw Hu Tianxiong so closely, at this time, his face was pale, his movements were very slow, and the breath in his body was also very disordered. After studying medicine with the sixth master for two years, his current medical skills are not bad, and he can judge that Hu Tianxiong is seriously injured at this time, and if he is not treated in time, his life is even in danger.

Hu Tianxiong slowly raised his arm and grabbed Ye Ying's wrist, Ye Ying felt a trace of true qi flowing in his body, knowing that this was Hu Tianxiong checking his cultivation.

At this moment, Ye Ying's heart suddenly had a thought, if he took advantage of the mechanism to hold the seriously injured Hu Tianxiong and took him hostage, then he could force the bandits to let him go.

But after changing his mind, Ye Ying gave up this idea, although this Hu Tianxiong was seriously injured, but a master like him, and he must have the means to fight back at the end of the strong man, otherwise he would not dare to let himself get so close to him.
