Chapter 44: A false alarm

Yang Shucheng and the three of them hid behind the boulder, and saw that the old man and woman were strong in martial arts, and they were so ruthless that they were so frightened that they didn't dare to say a word, let alone save Zhao Wen.

Fortunately, soon, the lights in the stone house went out, and it is estimated that the two old men lay down and slept.

It was very quiet in the four places, if there was a noise, it would wake up the sleeping old man and old woman, Yang Shucheng and the two didn't dare to save Zhao Wen, so they discussed coming back to save him in a few days.

The three of them were about to move their nest when they saw a figure running towards the stone house on the mountain road in the distance.

Who else is not afraid of death is going to die!

I saw the figure running near, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old. I saw him go to the stone house, and quietly go to the sheepfold, where two sheep thieves died, and they didn't know what was going on.

Now there's another one.

When he saw the man leaning down, he picked up a sheep.

This man was even more greedy than the two men before him, and he took out a sheep and put it on the ground, and he leaned down to take out another sheep, and then another sheep, and he took out four sheep in a row, and put them on the ground.

He turned out the sheepfold, found a rope under the eaves, came and tied a sheep, and led him away, and the three sheep followed behind him, lined up in a line, and walked silently down the mountain.

This is an experienced habitual thief.

As soon as I walked to the mountain road, I heard a shout behind me:

"Son, what are you doing with the sheep?"

The man turned his head and lied to her: "Mother, don't you complain that I am lazy and don't herd sheep? I can't sleep now, I'm going to herd sheep. ”

Of course, the old woman did not believe it, so she came up to her son angrily, grabbed her son's ear, and shouted, "Have you lost the bet again?" Lost four sheep? ”

"Yes, yes. Mom, don't pull it, it hurts. The son couldn't bear it anymore and finally told the truth.

The old woman put down her hand and said, "You still know the pain." If you know it hurts, don't gamble. ”

"I'll go now, and I'll definitely win it back tomorrow."

The son took the four sheep and ran away. Turning his head, he shouted, "Mother, you wait for me, I will definitely win it back." ”

Before he could finish speaking, the man ran away with the four sheep without a trace.

Here, the old man walked up to the old woman and sighed, "My son is a good gambler, what can I do?" ”

"Go, go and see, who is so bold as to win against my four sheep."

The two discussed, followed behind their son's feet, and walked out of the mountain step by step.

Here, Yang Shucheng and the three of them looked at the old man and the old woman gone, so they hurriedly ran to the stone house, took out the key from the windowsill, opened the big iron lock, and released Zhao Wenlai.

That Zhao Wen was locked up in the stone house, although he couldn't see the outside, he heard with his ears, and he knew what terrible things were happening outside.

Now that it was released, he didn't talk much, Yang Shucheng handed over the single knife, Zhao Wen took it, and the four of them ran forward like flying, this time they didn't dare to run into the mountains, but ran in the opposite direction of the old man and the old woman, all the way to the southeast.

The four of them ran for more than ten miles in one breath before they felt safe, stopped, and rested in front of a few trees.

Yang Shucheng only talked about the power of the old couple, Zhao Wen heard it, and felt lucky, otherwise it would be like the two Dongchang captains, who died and dragged them to feed the wolves.

It was about to dawn, and the four of them got up and slowly walked out of the mountain forest. After walking for a while, there are already people on the side of the mountain. The three of them inquired that it was not far from Wangwu Mountain.

The four of them ate in the village, slowly walked into the mountains, and came to the northeast.

When I walked to the top of the sun, I turned my head by chance and saw the old man with a bamboo cane, coming from afar. If he catches up, the consequences are unimaginable.

Everyone panicked, Yang Shucheng pulled Song Chao, and the four of them hurriedly ran towards the forest.

After running a few miles away, I saw that the old man had already chased after him, and the four of them ran wildly.

I only heard the sound of "ah......" behind me, and when I turned my head to look, the fat man Ni Chun fell to the ground like a hill, unable to get up for a long time.

It turned out that he had a fat foot.

The old man had already chased closer, and Yang Shucheng and the two couldn't ignore Ni Chun and take out a knife and sword to treat him.

The old man ran to the front and shouted, "Your men are defeated, do you still want to fight?" ”

He stretched out his bamboo cane and stabbed at the two of them. Yang Shucheng and the two had no choice but to unfold their swords to meet them. After a few moves, the two were not opponents.

Yang Shucheng stabbed a sword and made a move "Hou Yi Shoots the Sun", and the old man also knew the power of this sword, so he hurriedly dodged away.

Yang Shucheng also took the opportunity to jump to the side and shouted, "Uncle, you may have misunderstood, Brother Zhao didn't steal your sheep." The sheep's head was brought by Brother Ni. We can swear by God. ”

The old man said angrily, "Who listens to your swearing?" ”

raised the bamboo cane and stabbed at Zhao Wen, it seemed that he was going to give him a bloody hole.

Yang Shucheng didn't dare to slack off, and rushed forward with his sword, blocking the old man's sword.

At this time, Ni Chun also got up, stretched out the giant spirit palm, and grabbed the old man.

The old man was really old and strong, and he said, "Come on!" With a flying kick, he kicked a mountain of meat "all the way" and took three steps back.

The old man stepped forward and flicked his bamboo cane between his legs, and Ni Chun fell to the ground with a "pass" sound, unable to struggle anymore.

Then Zhao Wenting slashed at the old man, and the two were killed in one place. Yang Shucheng took the opportunity to run and grab Ni Chun's fat hand and pulled him up.

couldn't beat the old man, the two were about to escape, Yang Shucheng came over, pulled Song Chao, and ran forward.

Zhao Wen saw it, hurriedly left the old man, and also turned around and ran over, so the four of them ran wildly together.

The old man chased after him like a whirlwind.

The four of them ignored behind them, just bowed their heads and ran wildly.

At this moment, a man ran out of the mountain in the distance.

The man was in his forties, holding a single knife in his hand, Yang Shucheng saw it, and saw that his left hand was empty, this place was relatively close to Wangwu Mountain, was he a "one-armed swordsman" Shang Anbei?

Yang Shucheng was in a hurry, saving his life was urgent, and he hurriedly shouted: "Senior Shang, is it you?" ”

The person who came was the "one-armed swordsman" Shang Anbei.

Na Shang Anbei ran to the front, let Yang Shucheng and a few people, and shouted to the chasing old man:

"Brother Yan, why are you making trouble with the juniors."

It turned out that this old man's name was "Taihang Strange Man" Yan Min.

Yan Min stopped and shouted, "Brother Shang, what's wrong with you?" Running so panicked. ”

The "one-armed swordsman" Shang Anbei said: "A few days ago, a group of bandits ran to Qingfeng Temple, but the officers and soldiers chased after them, surrounded Qingfeng Temple, and vowed to kill all the people in the temple, we are not opponents, so I took the risk of jumping off the cliff and looking for people everywhere to rescue." I'm looking for you, how are you catching up with the young people? ”

Yan Min said: "Where do I have to embarrass with these juniors." I've taken a fancy to this stinky boy, teasing them, and seeing what his qualifications are? I'm going to take in an apprentice. ”

It turned out that Yan Min's son was not angry, could not endure hardship, and was addicted to gambling, and no one inherited his life's mastery, seeing that Zhao Wen had some spirituality, he was ready to accept him as an apprentice.

That Zhao Wen had seen Yan Min's martial arts with his own eyes, and when he heard that he wanted to accept himself as an apprentice, he couldn't ask for it, so he was really happy, and immediately knelt on the ground with his legs and said:

"Master, the apprentice kowtowed to your old man......"

Yang Shucheng saw that he was a family, thinking about the "Iron Mantis" Jiang Chang's entrustment, so he said: "Senior Shang, I have something to say......"

Na Shang'an said: "The matter is urgent, saving people is like fighting fire." Since we are a family, let's go to Qingfeng Temple to save people. ”

So, the three groups gathered together and ran in a northeast direction.

That Ni Chun's foot was injured, where could he run, but everyone wanted to save people, and they didn't care about him, let him limp behind.

Under the leadership of the "one-armed swordsman" Shang Anbei, everyone lowered their heads and ran towards Qingfengguan, and people continued to join along the way, which were all helpers found by Shang Anbei, because of the weak strength, so they waited on the side of the road.

Now that there are many people, continue to run towards Qingfeng Temple. After running for more than two miles, I saw a lonely peak in the distance, there were several houses, like a palace, all looming in the white clouds, this is the breeze view of Wangwu Mountain.

There is only one stone path up the mountain, surrounded by overhanging rock cliffs, and only broken bones are broken when you fall.

I saw that the narrow mountain road was crowded with officers and soldiers, who were attacking upwards, shouting and killing for many days, looking at the situation, Qingfeng Guan was about to be unable to hold it in the blink of an eye.
