Volume 1 Chapter 3: The Flying Foxes
Yu Cheng asked: "What about the Blood Swallow, that woman seems to be surprisingly good at martial arts, she shouldn't be under the third uncle, if we can invite her as a bodyguard, it should be a good choice." β
Before the words fell, Xue Ping interjected: "The people in the tavern ran away half when they heard her name, I think that woman is a devil." "From the bottom of her heart, she doesn't like the woman whose style is incompatible with her.
Chen Zhuo said: "I've seen Blood Swallow, she is actually not bad, but she has killed many Jianghu people who have harmed women, and she has a notoriety of killing people without blinking." β
Yu Cheng asked, "Uncle Zhuo has seen her?" Xue Ping also looked at Chen Zhuo curiously.
Chen Zhuo said: "Just three months ago, your father and I went to Luoxi City in Black Mountain County with Gongsun Taishou to defend against a Rakshasa army against our Dashang, and there were more than a thousand mercenaries who went with the army at that time, including the mercenary group where the Blood Swallow was located. β
Yu Cheng asked, "Blood Swallow is also a member of the mercenary group. β
Chen Zhuo nodded: "It's a small mercenary group, called the Flying Fox Regiment, and there are only more than thirty people." β
Yu Cheng secretly thought when he heard this, compared with the Sanshan Regiment of more than 5,000 people, this Flying Fox Regiment was indeed pitiful.
Chen Zhuo said with a smile: "Although the number of Flying Fox Troupes is small, their strength is not weak, among the more than thirty people, more than half of them are Xuan-level masters, and the rest are at least in the late stage of the Yellow Order. β
Yu Cheng's heart is full again, more than half of the more than thirty people, that is, there are nearly twenty Xuan-level masters, such strength is enough to sweep four or five Taurus City Yu families.
Chen Zhuo said: "In that battle, big mercenary groups like the Three Mountains Regiment and the Storm Bear Regiment all sent elite troops to participate in the battle, but in the end, it was this small Flying Fox Regiment that made the first contribution. β
Chen Zhuo fell into memory.
Menghe Taishou Gongsun Duqin led 3,000 county soldiers, and there were more than 3,000 regiments in various cities of Menghe County, plus more than 1,000 mercenaries, and more than 5,000 Rakshasa troops on the opposite side, and the number of the big merchant army had an absolute advantage. However, as soon as the battle began, the two wings of the merchant army, which was composed of regiments from various cities, were quickly routed under the impact of the Rakshasa heavy cavalry, and Gongsun Taishou also fell into the embarrassing situation of being attacked from three sides. If it weren't for the young man in the white robe and white horse, the merchant army would have been defeated in that battle. Chen Zhuo later learned that the young man was the leader of the Flying Fox Regiment, Fox King Yunzhong, and at that time, Chen Zhuo was thinking that no one would ever fight like that. There were many people who thought the same as Chen Zhuo, so that when the young man in white robe and white armor burst into the Rakshasa formation like lightning, most of them only knew that they were stunned to watch him knock down one after another Rakshasa people who dared to stand in front of him, and cut the infantry phalanx in front of the Rakshasa Army into two pieces like a knife cutting tofu, and the other members of the Flying Fox Regiment followed behind him, among which the most impressive was the Blood Swallow, that woman was not the highest, but she was the most killed, as if she didn't know the pain, she didn't know how many arrow wounds she had on her body, but she didn't care, she only attacked but didn't defend, and used a pair of short swords to harvest the lives of the Rakshasa peopleγ
After shooting down the main general of the Rakshasa people with an arrow in the clouds, the battle ended quickly with the complete rout of the Rakshasa people, and Chen Zhuo was not clear about the reward for meritorious deeds in the future, but the fox king still had his flying fox group in the clouds, which was firmly engraved in his mind.
Yu Cheng was enthusiastic when he heard this, and he wished that he was also on the battlefield at that time, following that god-like man, accompanying that group of reliable partners, killing the flag and dying without regret.
Chen Zhuo said: "If you meet that blood swallow again, you can propose to her to hire the Flying Fox Group as a bodyguard, but it is estimated that it is not so coincidental, let's go to the next town to see, there is the best of the Three Mountains Group or the Violent Bear Group, if not, you can also hire some small mercenary groups, but ......" Chen Zhuo looked at Xue Ping.
Xue Ping and Yu Cheng's faces showed embarrassment at the same time, they both escaped from Taurus City with great difficulty under the sudden attack, and they only had some small money on them.
Xue Ping thought for a while, took off the necklace around her neck, and handed it to Chen Zhuo: "This is what I gave to me after I married Cheng'er's father, and there is coral from the Fangfeng clan on it, which is said to be worth more than 100 gold coins." β
Chen Zhuo took the necklace and said with a wry smile: "I have always had no long things, and now I only have more than 30 gold coins, and I shouldn't be able to afford to invite a few people in total, so let's take a step at a time." β
"Hahahaha", a burst of laughter suddenly sounded, and the group was shocked.
Yu Cheng was bold and looked fixedly, but from the low bushes not far from him, a person suddenly came out, and said with a smile: "You don't need to go to the next town, just take care of the business below." β
But it was a yellow-faced man with a height of less than 1.6 meters, in his thirties, with sharp-beaked monkey gills and a sickly face, like a tuberculosis ghost who had accumulated years of disease.
But this person was hiding on the side just now, and with Chen Zhuo's cultivation and alertness, he didn't even notice it, if this person had evil intentions, it would be really unimaginable.
Chen Zhuo said in a deep voice: "Who is Your Excellency, why are you eavesdropping on our conversation here?"
The man smiled: "In Xia Baisheng, a native of Qingzhou, he has a friendship with Song Jiang, Wang Ying and other leaders in the Sanshan mercenary group you just mentioned, this time he came to Menghe County in Youzhou to defect, the day before yesterday, I heard that Brother Song Jiang is now in Shuifeng City, and he is preparing to go, I was tired of walking just now, so I found a shade to rest, I don't want you to come over, it's not that I deliberately listened to you." β
Chen Zhuo's gaze stayed on Bai Sheng for a long time, and then said slowly: "Take us to Boye City, how much do you want to be paid?" He has already seen that although this Bai Sheng is not good-looking, his cultivation is not low, but he is afraid that he is still above himself, and now he and Yu Cheng are seriously injured, if Bai Sheng really has bad intentions, it will be easy to deal with his own group, and there is no need to use any means.
Bai Sheng smiled: "I just don't have any money on me, and I want to make a fortune along the way, so I'm only going to bring you to Water Wind City." Well, a hundred gold coins will do. β
Before the words fell, Xue Ping said categorically: "No, we are going to Boye City." β
Yu Cheng also interjected: "Yes, this hero, you have been listening to it for a long time just now, you should know that we will only be safe when we go to Boye City." β
Bai Sheng sneered: "Not to mention that the reward of one hundred gold coins is not enough for me to protect your two-day journey, with your current situation, it is not a good choice to go to Boye City." β
Chen Zhuo said: "How do you say this?"
Bai Sheng said: "Chasing and killing your friends, the strength is not weak, is it? at least much stronger than us now, isn't it?"
Chen Zhuo nodded, a Yu Hai in the early stage of the Xuan Rank, Yu Bo and the mysterious man in black are all in the middle of the Xuan Rank, and there is a dark wizard who may have reached the late stage of the Xuan Rank.
Bai Sheng said: "I am now a Xuan-level Dual-Heaven, and you two are seriously injured, with our current strength, we can fight against that Xuan-level early stage at most." And it takes two days to get to Boye City here, and there are many dreams at night, and if the other party's master catches up with us in two days, I can't protect you by myself. β
Seeing that Chen Zhuo and the others were silent, Bai Sheng continued: "So I think we should go to Shuifeng City, which is the seat of Menghe County and the residence of my eldest brother Song Jiang, and there are hundreds of Xuan-level masters of the Sanshan Regiment in Taishou Mansion, and your opponent will not dare to make waves after eating the leopard's guts, and then you can hire someone to send a letter to your relatives in Boye City, and ask them to pick you up in Shuifeng City, so that you will be safe?
Seeing that Chen Zhuo, Yucheng and the others were speechless, Bai Sheng raised his hand: "Without further ado, let's go." "I secretly rejoiced in my heart, I didn't need to make a detour to earn a hundred gold coins casually, as for protecting this line, Bai Sheng already had a plan in his heart, if he met a little minion, he would fight, if there was a master chasing him, he would run for his life, he was talented, he had excellent light skills, and he still had the confidence to escape in front of the Xuanjie master.
Chen Zhuo and the others didn't know Bai Sheng's plans, and at that moment, Chen Zhuo and Yu Cheng each carried a little girl on their backs, turned to the northwest, and headed towards Water Wind City.
Soon after the departure of this group, more than ten fast horses galloped past on the official road, and the knight on the first horse was a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old great man, nearly one meter nine tall, chain mail protection, majestic, dignified appearance, if Yu Cheng and others were here, they should be able to recognize it, this is the youngest but most powerful aftermath of the Yu family's three Ying. Immediately behind Yu Bo was a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a black power suit.
They passed by the place where the battle had just begun, and Yu Bofei flew underneath him, walked to Xu Kun's corpse, glanced at it, turned his head and said to the man in black who was still riding on the horse: "It's Chen Zhuo, you found that little cub before us." β
The man in black said: "He was injured by me, and he can't make any waves, but I don't know where they will flee." β
Yu Bo said: "Xue Ping's slut's father has some power in Boye City, they will definitely go to him, we might as well take a detour to block them, but that old man is not easy to mess with, in case he comes out of the city, it will be a little difficult." β
The man in black asked, "That old man is very strong?"
Yu Bo said: "I met four months ago, at that time he was already a Xuan Rank Ten Heavens, and there were four or five early Xuan Rank masters under him, so I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with it with you and me." β
The man in black smiled: "Don't worry, someone will deal with him." In this way, you and Yu Hai will continue to lead people to track along the way, and I will go to the direction of Boye City to block them. β
Yu Bo's face sank: "If that kid falls into your hands......"
The man in black laughed: "Don't worry, Ziyang bloodline, we will divide it equally, and we won't leave you." β
Yu Bo stared at the man in black for a while, as if he could see some answer on the face of the man in black, and the man in black stood there motionless, smiling calmly.
The two looked at each other strangely for about half a minute, and Yu Bo flew on his horse and walked away.
The smile on the face of the man in black turned into a sneer, and he snorted: "Rats." Out of nowhere, he took out a carrier pigeon and released it westward.
In a village not far east of Taurus, a young man dressed in white looked at the ruins of the ruins that were still emitting black smoke in front of him. The young man is about 1.85 meters tall, with a well-proportioned body shape and good facial features, and he looks only twenty-one or twelve years old, but his face has a sense of vicissitudes that are not commensurate with his age. What caught the eye was that on his shoulder, there was a little white fox that was not much bigger than a mouse, and at this moment, the little fox opened his eyes, looked at the scene in front of him like a hell on earth, seemed to have no interest, stretched his waist, put his little head close to the young man's neck, and fell into a deep sleep like this.
"Leader......" A woman in Tsing Yi walked up to the young man and stopped talking.
The young man said softly: "Mei'er, how is the situation?"
Mei'er replied in a low voice: "There are more than thirty villagers in total, all of them are dead, and not a single one has been found." She paused, "All the female villagers, young and old, were naked, and they were raped before they died, two of them were young and beautiful and mutilated, and the rest were also in a miserable death. He pursed his lips, as if to suppress the discomfort in his heart, "The murderer is a group of beasts!"
The head of the regiment's face twitched, walked into the village, inspected several corpses, and asked a middle-aged scribe behind him: "Chu Duoqing, come and see, these villagers seem to have died under the scimitar." β
Chu Duoqing replied: "The subordinates have also noticed that there are quite a few murderers, at least hundreds of people, but the weapons are very neat, all of them are scimitars. β
The head of the regiment said: "Eighty percent of the wolf cubs that came over from the grassland are from Murowei, and it may also be from Wuhuan." Mei'er!" the woman in Tsing Yi immediately walked up to her when she heard this, "You and Chu Duoqing will go to Xiuqing Tuntian Army to find my master Sun Cheng and tell him what happened here." "Mei'er and Chu are affectionate.
The regiment leader then said to the other mercenary: "Helian Peng, I'll just go there alone in Water Wind City, you take your brothers to search around here, these wolf cubs shouldn't have gone far." After a pause: "There may be masters in these guys, and after they find it, they should not be underestimated, and it is best to encircle and suppress them together with the nearby regimental training brothers." β
Helian Peng nodded yes, and then the head of the regiment said: "Yanzi and Wusheng should also be around here, find a way to contact them first, Yanzi has an impulsive personality, I'm afraid she will make a mistake." He Lianpeng patted him on the shoulder, "Be careful, I will rush back immediately after I go to Water Wind City to see Lord Taishou, if the enemy is strong, you can just hang far away, and then attack when I come back." β
At this time, Na Mei'er suddenly spoke: "Commander, your body...."
The head of the Flying Fox Regiment, the Fox King Yunzhong, laughed: "It's okay." Before the words landed, he was already on his horse and galloped in the direction of Water Wind City.
