Chapter 25: The Trail of the Snake
Updated: 2013-07-31
"Willing to serve the young master!" these private soldiers of the Qin family shouted in unison.
Hearing this, Qin Guyue looked at Xing Daorong beside him, and saw that his face showed a look of approval, it was obvious that he was quite satisfied with the quality of the Qin family's private soldiers.
He cleared his throat and said, "Now that my spies have discovered that the evil beast is a six-clawed serpent, and now it is seriously injured and hiding nearby, and it is infesting the inhabitants from time to time, we should go there as soon as possible, so that this evil beast will not harm the people!"
At this time, a knight wearing plate armor slowly walked out from among the five hundred iron horses, sat on the horse and bowed his hand slightly to Xing Daorong and Qin Guyue: "Young Master Guyue, Lord Xing, we are the head of the guard here, Qin Rong, we can set off immediately, I don't know what else the two of you have to order?"
Qin Guyue could see at a glance that this Qin Rong was a master of armor and had good strength, so she couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
Hearing this, Xing Daorong glanced at Qin Guyue, and then smiled.
......
Maybe the five hundred elite private soldiers of the Qin family couldn't understand why they weren't allowed to wear regular armor and ride fast horses to their destination immediately, but let them divide into five groups and run in five different directions.
But this is not to meet the enemy, but to hunt, but ordinary hunting is at most to hunt wolves or tigers and brown bears, this time it is just to hunt a demon beast. Although it is rumored that a demon beast like the six-clawed snake has opened its intelligence and is smarter than ordinary people, as a human being, no normal person wants to believe it, nor will it accept this fact, after all, how smart can a beast be?
But fortunately, these private soldiers were well-trained, and obeyed orders to a greater degree than the regular army, and even if the order was ridiculous, they would carry it out scrupulously.
At this time, in the middle of the team where Xing Daorong and Qin Guyue were, when the war horses were resting by a waterside, Qin Guyue walked up to Xing Daorong who was sitting on the waterside, and handed over a skin bag containing sweet rice wine. Originally, it was not allowed to drink alcohol during the march, but sweet rice wine was an exception, because no matter how much this drink was drunk, it would not really make people drunk, but it was very cool and thirst-quenching.
Xing Daorong smiled, naturally took the leather bag handed by Qin Guyue, raised his head, took a sip, wiped his mouth, handed it back to Qin Guyue and said, "Little master, this sweet rice wine has the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, it should be the special osmanthus bar of Yunshui Villa?"
Qin Guyue nodded and said, "The Humane Punishment Lord is a product of martial arts, and the wine is also a product, as expected." This is the osmanthus wine in the villa last year, and this year's one has not been brewed yet. ”
Xing Daorong looked at the skin bag in Qin Guyue's hand and said with a smile: "Only old wine has a taste, that is, the older it is, the better it tastes!"
Qin Guyue asked at him at this time: "Master Xing, you divided the five hundred private soldiers into five, are you afraid that the Hachiman Army will follow the vine and take advantage of the fire to rob?"
Xing Daorong touched his chin and said with a smile: "Little young master, if you really have a father, you must have a son, you are so talented, it is really a pity not to be an official." ”
Qin Guyue heard Xing Daorong's compliment, and said with a faint smile: "Lord Xing, the most ferocious demon beast in the world is not as deceitful as the human heart, this time we are obviously hunting the six-clawed snake, but secretly we are actually playing with the Hachiman Army, right?"
Xing Daorong nodded with deep feeling and said, "Yes, who doesn't covet the six-clawed snake?" The Hachiman army must also want to get this whole six-clawed snake to enhance their military strength, but they are unwilling to submit to me for this, and they don't know where this beast is hiding......
"So you think they're going to follow you and follow our troops to find the six-clawed serpent's hideout?"
"Yes, that's the best way to do it. And they can also sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, if we restrain the six-clawed snake, they just sit and reap the profits, if we can't cure the beast, then there are two possibilities, they may restrain us, they may also turn their heads and run ......away" Xing Daorong analyzed, but Qin Guyue smiled bitterly and said: "Lord Xing, according to you, even if our trip is successful, we will make wedding clothes for others, so why should we bother?"
Xing Daorong smiled and said: "This is why I divided the five hundred private soldiers into five parts and sent them from five directions, so that they don't know where the six-clawed snake is, and when they find out, it's too late!"
Qin Guyue frowned slightly and said, "Five hundred iron horsemen are still a little hanging against a six-clawed snake, if there are only a hundred people left, wouldn't it be a moth to fight the fire?"
Xing Daorong nodded and said: "Ordinary people seem to think that it should be like this, so they all think that we are crazy, and normal people can't understand that crazy people think, so they can't understand us, and they can't stop us." ”
Qin Guyue stroked his palms and smiled when he heard this: "I think I understand, a hundred people and five hundred people are the same for the six-clawed snake, right? If the six-clawed snake is really seriously injured, one hundred people and five hundred people are the same concept, on the contrary, if the six-clawed snake is not seriously injured, five hundred people and one hundred people are also a concept, Lord Xing, do you say that what I said is right?"
Xing Daorong took another sip of sweet rice wine, put down the wine bag, patted Qin Guyue's shoulder and said with a smile: "Those who know me, Young Master Guyue is also." ”
"Lord Xing of the capital uses soldiers to be virtual, three points real, seven points virtual, and it is so. Although Qin Guyue spent most of the eleventh year in the Qin family's study, he did not ignore what was going on outside the window, but carefully paid attention to the changes in Yunjing City, this martial champion was naturally also in Qin Guyue's sight, if it weren't for this, he would not have been able to comprehend Xing Daorong's intentions so easily.
When the hundred iron horsemen left, the five black-clothed men flashed out of the post road. All five of them were as light as swallows, and they didn't even make the slightest sound when they walked quickly, and they were obviously already martial artists in the armor realm. A warrior who can walk like a fly in heavy armor can indeed barely make a sound if he only wears a night suit. However, if you can reach the realm of Martial Sect, wearing a night suit is really a flying eaves and walking on the wall, silently, and when performing the assassination mission, it is only possible to avoid it when you reach the perception realm of the physiognomist flame's fourfold "heart and blood to be auspicious".
"Big brother, what the hell is going on?" one of the men in black asked softly with one hand behind his back, apparently his right hand hidden in black was wrapped around a soft waist sword, which was like a poisonous snake that could pierce the throat of an enemy with a slight shake.
One of the black-clothed men who was the leader had a look at the other four people, and a fierce light flashed over the one eye, and then said: "A hundred people go to catch the six-clawed snake, isn't it looking for death?" ”
"Shall we just follow them and die together? Another man in black asked.
"Do you think this is possible?" the one-eyed man at the head hugged his shoulders and looked at the dust raised on the post road, and after a moment he said abruptly: "We are divided into five groups, keep an eye on them, and they will definitely meet in a while, and then we will send a signal to assemble, and a hundred people will go to kill the six-clawed snake, which is simply to send rations to the six-clawed snake." It would be strange if the fox did such a thing. ”
The four people around him responded in unison: "Obey!" Then they turned into a black shadow and disappeared outside the official road.
Not to mention the other four teams, just the team where Qin Guyue and Xing Daorong were located, after a day's trek, arrived at a remote mountain village. Don't say it's Qin Guyue, even Qin Rong, who is familiar with the nearby geography, doesn't know what kind of place this is.
Qin Guyue reined in her horse, looked at the sky, and then looked at Xing Daorong next to her and said, "Lord Xing, it's getting late, and this mountain village seems to be a little weird, should we go another way, or ......?"
Xing Daorong pondered for a while and said: "According to the intelligence, the six-clawed snake should be here, if we go any further and arrive at the more lively market, we will definitely reveal our whereabouts." And I have a hunch that the Hachiman Army has been following us all along, and if we turn back after arriving at the market, it will be tantamount to telling them the whereabouts of the six-clawed snake, which is really inappropriate. He slowed down his speech, looked at the sky and said, "Just stay here for one night, pass the order, Qin Rong, you take ten people into the village to see if there is a place to stay." ”
"Yes!" Qin Rong, the head of the guard, responded, and after a while, Qin Rong hurried back, and said with a happy face: "Young Master Guyue, Lord Xing, there is a market in this mountain village in front of you, and it is very lively, and there are even restaurants and regular inns, if we can rest there for one night, we will definitely be able to deal with the six-clawed snake tomorrow." ”
Hearing this, Xing Daorong stroked his palm and smiled: "Okay, great, God really help me, I didn't expect that there would be a market in such a place, it was really unexpected." ”
Compared with Xing Daorong, Qin Guyue's face was unusually solemn: "Lord Xing, if it is different from common sense, it must be a demon, there is a market on such a barren slope here, I am afraid there is fraud!"
At this time, Qin Rong next to him spoke: "Young Master Guyue, you have been in Yunjing for many years, maybe you don't know the way, the south, especially our area, due to the abundance of products, has always had the custom of a grass market, this must be a grass market in the countryside, there is no need to make a fuss." ”
Xing Daorong also nodded and said: "Yes, Young Master Qin is too worried, let's enter the village quickly, rest as soon as possible, and recuperate is the key." ”
Qin Guyue seemed to want to say something, but she had to stop talking, and followed the hundred-man team into the village.
When he entered the village, Qin Guyue was stunned for a moment, where is it like a grass market, it can be said that it is no different from a county seat. And there is an endless stream of men, women and children coming and going, a thriving scene.
