Chapter 17 Dragon and Tiger Village Robbery
Gu Shengchao turned to defend, but he didn't see anything. If the other party is really Ding Darthead, there may be some master behind him to help him, and it is even more dangerous in the night, he hesitated for a moment and gave up the idea of catching up and returned to the inn.
When Wang Yuan saw him, he asked anxiously, "Where did you go just now, I sent someone to the toilet and didn't see you." ”
"Oh, it's nothing, I heard the movement and thought it was someone sneaking up, and I chased it out only to find out that it was a cat, so I came back." Gu Shengchao lied, he asked, "What didn't happen here just now, right?" ”
Wang Yuan said disdainfully: "How is it possible, you don't look at who is here." It's okay, you go to bed quickly, and you'll have to take over our shift later! ”
Gu Shengchao leaned on the side of the carriage and closed his eyes, but he couldn't sleep, the scene just now was incredible, he couldn't figure it out. There was nothing to do all night, Gu Shengchao's head hurt, and what happened last night was like a dream.
For the whole day of the next day, Gu Shengchao didn't go anywhere, just concentrated on practicing in the guest room. On this day, Zhong Lei, the head of the dart, did not send people to explore the way, and everyone rested in the inn.
After two days of repair, the team started on time.
In the past, it was the time to set off, but this time it was unusual, and I didn't start to leave until it was dark.
Gu Shengchao carefully observed, but did not find the figure of Ding Darthead, Xin Darthead and Chief Dart Head Zhong Lei both rode in front. He passed by the carriage driven by Xu Bo and sensed the existence of people in the carriage, Gu Shengchao walked by quietly as usual. He came to the front of the team with the Pu knife on his shoulder, and he couldn't feel any breath in the rear. He found that the sensing range was roughly twenty paces away, beyond which it was impossible to know.
Twenty steps away, the master's move is a moment, the distance between life and death. Gu Shengchao secretly made up his mind that he would work harder in the future to expand this range. This way, you'll be able to spot your target earlier and give yourself plenty of time to respond.
A short distance out of the town, they saw the mountains in front of them, and everyone did not rest until nearly noon. Between the two mountains there is a winding path that stretches upwards and is hidden among the trees.
The dart cart was heavy, and it was difficult to get up with the strength of the horses alone, so everyone pushed behind them and slowly moved to a high place.
Turning around a mountain cliff, the peaks on both sides are steep, and the mountain road is even more difficult. A large tree was washed away by the rain and fell down on the road, stopping in front of everyone.
Zhong Lei pondered for a moment, pointed at the six people, including Gu Shengchao and Wang Yuan, with a horsewhip, and ordered, "You guys move this tree away." ”
Several people came to the bare roots, Wang Yuan struck the roots with an iron rod, vibrating to make the soil sticking to it fall, and Gu Shengchao raised his sword to cut off the excess roots. After tidying up, the six of them put down their blades and together lifted the roots of the tree and turned it to the side.
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
Suddenly, the sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard on the slopes of the mountains on both sides at the same time.
Gu Shengchao looked around, the rain of arrows in the sky was close at hand, and it was too late to find the blade, and there was nowhere to hide. He didn't have time to think about it, he raised his right hand to summon the sword hidden in the dantian, and with his left hand, he pulled Wang Yuan to protect him, and the sword in his hand blocked all the arrows that shot at his side. It's a pity that the remaining four people, who couldn't reach the flying feather arrows with their bare hands, were pierced into hedgehogs and fell next to the tree.
"Let's go!" Gu Shengchao pushed Wang Yuan, who was still stunned, and looked around vigilantly.
Compared with the unprepared six, the rest of the people are much better, because they have blades to protect their bodies, and they are basically unharmed. Only the two women who accompanied the carriage were of low skill, one fell to the ground and was seriously injured, and the other was killed by an arrow through the throat.
Wang Yuan picked up the iron rod and returned to the team, looking at Gu Shengchao who had followed up, he still had palpitations, and said gratefully: "Thank you!" ”
Gu Shengchao patted him on the shoulder for comfort, but did not speak.
The ambushed crowd walked down from the middle of the mountain, and the leader said loudly: "Listen to the carefree darts game, leave the darts and leave immediately, spare you from dying, if you resist, you will be like them." The man pointed to the four men who had fallen beside the tree like hedgehogs.
Zhong Lei hugged his fists and said politely: "Heroes, you and I have no grievances, have you recognized the wrong person?" ”
"Phew!" The man at the head shouted: "It is to intercept the darts of your worry-free dart board, don't grind and chirp nonsense, and quickly leave the darts and get out." ”
"Who are you?" When Zhong Lei saw that he was so sure, he knew that there must be something strange in it.
The leader approached, holding a three-strand steel fork in his hand, stood not far in front of the team, patted his chest and said: "Ye Xing will not change his name, sit or change his surname, and do things in a dignified manner, Xue Kui, the second master of Longhu Village, is also." If you are wronged and have a debtor, you can find me after you die, I am afraid that you will be a ghost and a coward. He laughed wildly.
Zhong Lei understood that this Dragon and Tiger Village did have a holiday with the worry-free dart game back then. They intercepted the dart of the dart bureau, and the shopkeeper of the dart bureau colluded with the government, and finally persuaded the government to send an army to suppress the bandits. The blood in Longhu Village collapsed, Zhong Lei thought that they would fend for themselves, but he didn't expect that they could make a comeback and become the climate.
"Smack!"
Zhong Lei wanted to say some more kind words, but a person flew over his head, kneeling straight in front of everyone, startling everyone. Everyone looked carefully at it, it was Ding Darthead, and the five flowers were tied and kneeled on the ground. His usual blade was a long silk thread, one end of which was tied around his waist and the other end in Xu Bo's hand.
"You keep saying that you are doing things uprightly, but behind your back, you are colluding with my dart board, who is a coward at a glance, there is no need to say more." Xu Bo was full of energy, and his voice reverberated in the valley.
Gu Shengchao finally determined that he and Ding Darthead fought that night, and the person looming behind him must be Xu Bo, who is the real master in the dart game.
"Waste one." Xue Kui's face was full of disdain, and when he raised his hand, three sleeve arrows shot out.
Ding Dart's head was tied all over his body, and it was impossible to dodge, and Xu Bo had no intention of saving him. Everyone watched as Ding Dart's head was hit by a sleeve arrow in his chest, and the strength of the sleeve arrow was extremely powerful, and the arrow cluster directly pierced through the chest, revealing from the back, kneeling in the middle of the road and dying. Ding Dart's eyes widened until death, and he couldn't believe what was in front of him.
Xu Bo took the thin thread into his arms and sneered: "You don't even let go of your own people, it's really shameless." ”
Xue Kui disagreed: "It's just a dog, it's not a pity to die." If you are not obedient, you will die a hundred times worse than this man. ”
Xu Bo said slowly: "I don't have to worry about the dart game and don't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of things, so I can't help you nonsense." His voice was not high, but it was loud, which made people feel a sense of intimidation.
Xue Kui sneered: "It seems that you are not self-sufficient and insist on humiliating yourself." ”
Zhong Lei said solemnly: "Don't talk nonsense, people are darts, and they will never let you succeed." ”
"Since you don't know what to do, then let you die without a place to be buried." Xue Kui waved his hand, danced the steel fork and took the lead in rushing towards Zhong Lei, stabbing Zhong Lei with a move "Dragon King Goes to Sea". The rest of the people on the hillside also flocked to besiege it.
Everyone in the dart game was worried that the dart would be intercepted, and no one dared to abandon these treasures, so they all gathered around the dart cart to deal with it, and there was less maneuverability and flexibility.
Gu Shengchao stabbed one person to death with a sword, cut off the arm of another, and was about to help Zhong Lei when a ghost-headed broadsword slashed over. Before the knife arrived, it was already cold and breathtaking. The ghost-headed broadsword was fierce, and Gu Shengchao dodged sideways, not daring to go straight to the edge.
"I saw that you had some means just now, and you ate my Jia Lao Si's knife." The ghost-headed broadsword slashed past before the voice of the sneak attacker came, and the blade stirred up the dust on the ground, and the dust flew all over the sky.
Gu Shengchao thought that this Jia Laosi just had some strength, and the ghost-headed big knife made the tiger mighty, and after the two fought each other, they found that the other party's moves were also exquisite, and Gu Shengchao was tired of parrying and had no power to fight back.
It stands to reason that Gu Shengchao absorbed the purest qi of the spirit fetus in Mengyou Villa, and his internal strength is abundant and rare in the world, and he should have long been one of the best characters in the rivers and lakes, but it is a pity that he experienced family changes in his childhood, and he has lived on the streets since he was a child, and he has learned very little from his thin foundation. At the bottom of the sinkhole at the foot of the Seven Star Cliff, I got along with Lu Chuan for a few days, but the kung fu I learned has not been fully mastered. Although the "Five Souls Array" is strong, it is the final bottom line of his housekeeping skills, and he will never show it easily until a critical moment. Although the palm technique of "Nine Heavens Blue Falling Palm" is exquisite, after all, Gu Shengchao has not practiced the horizontal practice of the Golden Bell Jar, how dare he go into battle shirtless in the melee, and the slightest carelessness is a different place. The phoenix dance swordsmanship learned in Raven Bay is also not really through. In addition, he has little practical experience, so his on-the-spot response and reaction are naturally slightly inferior.
Gu Shengyue was in a hurry, the more he was at a disadvantage, the ghost-headed broadsword completely covered him in the shadow of the sword, and he couldn't get out. Although it seems dangerous, there is no danger of life for the time being, and it is all supported by abundant internal force.
Jia Laosi had the upper hand, but there was nothing he could do about the other party, he was also anxious, and in a hurry, his left palm was used as a palm knife, and the ghost head big knife in his right hand took turns to slash at Gu Shengchao. The two of them were staggered, and Gu Shengchao had just used his sword to resist a fierce attack from the Ghost Head Broadsword, and he couldn't help but slash through his palm, cutting a wound in his abdomen. The placket was torn open, revealing long scratches, blood oozing out.
"Hey, hey! Today you will die without a place to bury. Jia Laosi smiled fiercely and raised his knife to slash.
At the moment of life and death, the ancient saint had a flash of inspiration. He saw Jia Laosi's left palm knife hidden in front of his chest, ready to cooperate with the ghost head big knife in his right hand to secretly attack. He thought of the "Nine Heavens Blue Palm" he had learned from Lu Chuan, and the palm technique was exquisite, since the palm of the hand could be used as a palm knife, then the palm technique could also be used flexibly through the sword.
Gu Shengchao's mind was in his mind, his body turned, and the sword in his right hand was used as a palm, and he slashed at Jia Laosi's neck with a move of "seeing the sky through the clouds".
Jia Laosi resisted with a knife, Gu Shengchao saw the move, and used the palm technique of "Nine Heavens Blue Palm", the sword swirled, and a move "Don't have a hole" to cut the opponent's thigh. Jia Laosi's big knife in his hand didn't have time to parry, so he had to retreat and dodge. Where did he expect the subtlety of the "Nine Heavens Blue Palm", he took a step back, and the sword light flashed in front of him, forcing him to step back. In an instant, the two switched positions in attack and defense, and Jia Laosi was at a disadvantage.
