The discussion at the mouth of the valley soon turned into action.

Under the command of the black bull, five or six guards who had taken off their leather armor and replaced them with rags ran out in the direction given by Liao Hua to attract the attention of the county lieutenants.

Zou Cang, on the other hand, hung behind them, moving stealthily among the surrounding trees.

Between the foothills.

The county lieutenant who came out from Yingxian to beg for thieves wiped the sweat from his forehead.

This time, he came out to beg for the thief's own life, and he had to seize the rare opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

If he doesn't grasp it this time, the displaced people are gone, and his road to promotion will be far away.

Oh no.

What a homeless person, that's a Taiping rebellion, it's a thief army!

"County Lieutenant, rest, look at your tiredness, I have water here, you can take a sip."

Beside the county lieutenant, a person licked his face and gave him a kettle.

The kettle is made of bamboo, which is different from the water pouch that other people carry.

The county lieutenant wants to be promoted, and naturally there are people under him who want to curry favor with the county lieutenant.

The water bladder can be filled, but there is a smell, no, in order to show performance, this person prepared a bamboo tube in advance.

The county lieutenant hummed, took the bamboo tube and took a sip, feeling a lot more comfortable.

"I have a heart."

"Hey, it should, it should."

A short trim.

The county lieutenant sent people to search again, and even he himself led people forward to investigate.

"How can these rats hide like this? I still don't believe it, they can't hide underground! ”

Days of searching were in vain, and the county lieutenant's patience was about to be exhausted.

He thought to himself, if you don't forget it, just go down the mountain and find a few villages with people to slaughter, and say that it is peaceful and rebellious.

This is no stranger to the county lieutenant who was born in the army, although he has not done this kind of thing for some years, but there is still work in his hands.

Isn't it chaotic if you didn't do it before, there are officials at all levels, and the loopholes are not easy to fill.

But what year is it now?

The Taiping is rebellious, who can say that the people in those villages have no heart for Taiping?

Just when this thought intensified.

A soldier ran over and excitedly reported.

"Report! Back to the county lieutenant, I found the whereabouts of those homeless people! ”

"What!"

The county lieutenant had a happy face and hurriedly asked.

"Where?"

It was added later.

"What outcasts? Those are all fierce and vicious Taiping rebels! ”

"Oh, yes, yes, the Taiping army is rebellious!"

The creep quickly changed his words, then pointed to the side.

"The brethren noticed that some of the refugees were going over there, and they followed them, so that the younger ones could come back and report them, because they should be able to find their gathering place."

"Good!"

"Count your meritorious service!"

"Let's go!"

"That's right."

The county lieutenant looked back at the man who had just handed him water.

"You, and you, the two of you take a few people back to Yingxian County to report to the county, and say that you have found traces of the traitor, and Li Cheng, the county lieutenant of Yingxian County, will lead the army to ask for it!"

"No!"

The two named had a happy face on their faces and hurriedly received their orders.

Soon, the county lieutenant summoned the county lieutenant soldiers, and followed the soldiers who came back to deliver the message in the direction where they found the traces of the homeless people.

The other group of people went in the direction of Yingxian, and there were about five or six people.

In the shadows.

Zou Cang, who was hiding among the bushes, had a flash of red light in his eyes.

It's these beasts who don't do anything and wear human skins.

His wife is young.

His own home was all turned into a flame that burned that night.

There was no sound.

Zou Cang is like the most cunning fox who once hunted down the mountains and forests, be careful, cautious.

Now the two groups have just been separated, and it is not yet time to hunt.

"Six arrows for six people is enough."

Come on.

Zou Cang hung behind them, like a lonely soul that no one could find.

Waist.

He opened a section of bamboo tube in advance.

The bamboo tube is full of viscous and fishy liquid.

It was the venom extracted from the poison he had previously captured in the valley.

It's not a rare thing, but getting into flesh and blood can definitely make people die.

Continue tailgating.

Zou Cang had already taken out the short bow in his hand.

Around the corner.

He walked a few quick steps and leaned down to hide under a tree.

Look sideways to the other side.

The few people who were still in front of them just now appeared below him at this moment.

Draw the bow.

An arrow was wrapped in a bamboo tube, and the arrow was covered with venom that could kill people.

Whoosh –

Yes!!

One fell to the ground in response, wailing terribly.

The sudden screams startled the remaining few people, and they hurriedly looked at the person who made the sound.

That's how it looks.

Another arrow flew and struck a man in the throat.

Woo——!

Burst.

And another man fell.

The remaining four didn't know what was going on.

Hurriedly look for a place to hide.

High places.

Zou Cang was in no hurry.

Hunting.

Patience is also part of it.

The remaining four dodged the arrows that might come their way, searching for the archers.

But for a long time.

But there was no sound around him.

If it weren't for the fact that one of the two people who fell at this moment was wailing weakly, foaming at the mouth, they would have thought that it was a hallucination.

"What should I do?"

The man who had just handed the water to the four asked.

Looking at his expression, it is not difficult to guess that he wants to go first.

And a few others said something about it.

"It's hopeless, that person is foaming, the arrow must be poisonous, I'll wait for the split run, how about life and death?"

They are all county lieutenants.

Although everyone is not very good at fighting, who is afraid of anyone who escapes?

As soon as this person spoke, the others nodded directly.

"Let's go!"

Walk away.

The four of them rushed out of hiding place.

They each fled.

"Huh."

Under the tree.

Zou Cang sneered.

"Running apart?"

"No matter how cunning a fox is, he can't escape the bow and arrow in the hands of the hunter."

Seeing them fleeing separately, Zou Cang didn't have the slightest eagerness.

Quietly followed one of them.

At the moment when the opponent flickered and stopped slightly, the arrow in his hand flew out.

The arrow from the string roars.

With a buzz, the arrow burrowed into the man's back, blood spilling out, and wailing continued.

After the hit, Zou Cang's footsteps did not stop at all, and continued to hunt in a different direction.

In the mountains and forests, no trace can escape the eyes of hunters.

Soon, Zou Cang caught up with another one.

Pulling the bow and shooting arrows, one prey after another was hunted by Zou Cang.

No one can escape.

And on the other side.

At the entrance to the valley.

Black Bull, Liao Hua and others were ambushed on the left and right sides.

Around them, hundreds of homeless people who had been called in to help were nervous.

Fortunately, Liao Hua and the others didn't expect these homeless people to help much, as long as the county lieutenants entered the ambush circle, these people could smash those stones down and it would be considered a victory.

But not all displaced people are nervous.

One of them had five fingers on his left hand, and the young man who was next to him was an old man, but his eyes were full of eagerness.

"Grandpa, do you think I can kill a county lieutenant?"

The old man beside the young man nodded slightly.

"This arrangement, as long as the county lieutenant soldiers come in, they will definitely die."
