Chapter 30: There are no living beings
The sky was already bright, and the air was filled with the fragrance of mountain leaves, as if you could still hear the murmuring of the stream.
Two crows leaped and circled among the ancient pine branches, seemingly so nervous that they forgot to chirp.
When Gongsun Tai and the Fat and Thin Venerable were led into the Justice Hall by the black-clothed minions, they were obviously surprised.
They didn't expect that the breakfast on Wolf Mountain would be so rich in wine and meat, and they didn't expect that in addition to the four wolves, there were also two snakes in the Gathering Hall.
In Jingzhou and Xuzhou over the years, the three of them have teamed up to make some big orders, but they have never had any head-on conflicts with the three snakes under Yuan Shu.
It's not that there is no chance to run into it, once they sniped at the target, only to learn afterwards that they secretly took refuge in Yuan Shu and were protected by Yuan Highway.
The location of their interception was on a long street near the county office, because the target of the assassination was the newly arrived county magistrate.
There were 12 vendors in the streets, seven porters, five diners, and even a young woman shopping with a doll, an old woman on a hunchback and a cane, a blind fortune-teller, and a lame old beggar begging for food, all arranged by their employers.
Even the employer never thought that this new county order would be able to walk this street alive.
Fortunately, perhaps the lineup was too strong, and Gongsun Tai and the Fat and Thin Venerable only accepted the task of cutting off the entourage or pedestrians after fifteen steps after the new county order entered this long street.
They saw with their own eyes that the new county commander was followed by the white snake, the green snake, and the ten flower snakes into the long street.
After that, the trio never saw any of their companions come out. According to the plan, they cut off the family members of the entourage, thinking that it would be seamless, but when they saw the returning flower snake, they smelled the bloody smell all over the street, and knew that the general trend had gone.
It was the only job they missed, and although it wasn't their fault, they returned the employer's deposit twice.
That employer has never appeared on the boundary of Jingzhou and Xuzhou since then, and it is said that he took his family to avoid Xiliang.
So they didn't fight the white snake and green snake head-on, and every time they thought of this past, they were still glad that they weren't ambushed on that long street back then.
....................................
The fighting wolf arched his hand, which was regarded as a greeting, but did not speak.
However, the Zhongshan wolf is much more polite in his expression, as the current owner of the cottage, the person who comes is a guest, although in his heart he does not look down on these people, the scene must always be passable.
In the rivers and lakes, the strength of martial arts is important, but it mainly depends on the background and whether the camp is strong enough.
"You can sit casually, I don't know if you have had breakfast, eat and drink, you are a friend when you come, you are welcome. He instructed the minions beside him: "Serve tea to the three of them." ”
Gongsun Tai bowed deeply, paid a lot of courtesy, and said: "The owner of the village is polite, we have eaten the mountain." Originally, I didn't dare to bother you so early, but I was entrusted by the lord and had to go this way, for fear that I would be late and delay the lord's affairs, so I hope to forgive. ”
"Lord?" Douliang Wolf was curious, and asked softly: "You have always been alone, when did you have a lord, which one came to listen?"
Gongsun Tai sneered: "Today, if you don't take refuge in a prince, I'm afraid it will be difficult to move an inch in this river and lake." Our lord is the leader of the alliance of the princes of the Eighteenth Road to fight Dong Zhuo, and the general of Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao. ”
The mighty wolf exclaimed: "Yuan Shaoyuan is far away in the north, and now he has come to meddle in the affairs of the Central Plains." ”
The wolf in the middle was secretly proud, but fortunately there was no slacking off just now. Today, it seems that Yuan Shu is the most powerful, but in fact, this Yuan Shao and Yuan originally developed in Xutu, the four northern states, and won the support of the scholars and the people, and there is a hidden tendency to surpass Yuan Shu. Zhongshan Wolf said slowly: "I don't know why General Yuan sent a few of you?"
The fat Venerable smiled, he had set up an ambush on the official road before, and was injured by the flower boy golden needle, fortunately, the injury was not serious, and he said hatefully: "I heard that the flower boy of Luoyang Peony Xuanwu Hall is on the mountain, he injured me and the Gongsun brothers the day before yesterday, we are looking for him to ask for an explanation." ”
Zhongshan wolf's heart tightened, it was only a day after the flower boy and Sun Wu were poisoned to the mountain, and Yuan Shao's subordinates could get the news and come up to the mountain, and there must be Yuan Shao's meticulous work in the cottage. But the speed of this message delivery is too fast, what method is used?
Chu Chu Wolf glanced at the Zhongshan wolf, walked forward with a smile and said coquettishly: "This eldest brother, I'm afraid that it is fake to find a flower boy to take revenge, and it is true for Sun Wu's heirloom jade seal." ”
She is a woman, and there are some things that are inconvenient for men to say directly, so it is appropriate to say them through the mouths of women and children.
The fat venerable didn't expect Chu Chu Wolf to say a word to reveal his intentions, hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "The leader said that it was funny, our two lords are brothers, and there are some things that it is inconvenient for us to be subordinates. We didn't dare to ask Sun Wu for this time, just to find the flower boy for revenge, so it was reasonable to say the past. ”
The Douliang Wolf screamed: "If you want to take the flower girl away, you must first ask me if the Glaive Knife in my hand will agree." ”
....................................
The wolf sat back in his chair and bowed his head to embroider his flowers.
No one expected that the first to attack was not this giant spirit-like man, but a short and child-like wolf.
Is it true that the older the child, the more conservative he thinks, and the thinner he is, the more eager he is to perform?
The thin venerable who has not spoken has looked at the situation on the field, his side has no chance of winning, if there is, it is to give them a flying pigeon to pass the letter to the undercover agent of the lord on the wolf mountain, but he doesn't know who it is.
The Slender Venerable cupped his fists and said, "Everyone is in the same vein, and you must not hurt each other's harmony." We are here to accept the Lord's command, and we dare not disobey it. We don't dare to ask Sun Wu, Sun Lan, Immediately, and Fang Hao, we want a flower boy, one is that he hurt my two brothers, and the other is to take him back to have an explanation on the lord's side. I propose that there are only three of us in total, and we are certainly not opponents here. We are all our own brothers, so we might as well win or lose in the competition, and win two out of three games. If we win, we will take the flower girl away, if we lose, it is that our skills are not as good as others, and we can also return to the lord to accept the sin. ”
The Zhongshan Wolf nodded secretly, the high-sounding words of the Thin Venerable Venerable were irrefutable, but they took advantage of it invisibly. With their brother and Gongsun Tai, there was no chance of winning on this wolf mountain, and it was impossible to take people away. As soon as his plan for this competition came out, if Wolf Mountain did not agree, he could only fall into the notoriety of bullying more and less; if he agreed, the three of them would have a chance to win. Creating opportunities when there is no chance, the Thin Venerable is indeed the most powerful character among the three.
....................................
The fighting wolf screamed and shouted: "Three games and two wins will be three games and two wins, we are afraid that you will not succeed, so you will see it in two games, and you will lose convincingly." ”
The fat venerable said angrily: "What a stinky hairy child, he is too underestimated to look down on our brothers, or you go first, I will teach you how to move." ”
The Thin Venerable was thoughtful, and it was too late to stop him. What he thought of was that the fighting wolf seemed to take the lead in making trouble, and he couldn't get along with himself everywhere, but in fact, he invisibly helped his side get the opportunity to win or lose in the competition. The lord's undercover agent on Wolf Mountain, isn't this fighting wolf?
Zhongshan Wolf glanced at Douliang Wolf coldly, and he seemed to be a little puzzled about Douliang Wolf's performance today.
Chu Chu wolf giggled and said: "Everyone is a brother, don't hurt people when you compete in martial arts, I was most afraid of seeing blood since I was a child." ”
The Slender Venerable's heart moved, this Chu Chu wolf seemed to be secretly defending himself, what happened to this wolf mountain?
Zhongshan Wolf showed his authority in the Wolf Mountain at the right time, and it was necessary for him to come, so he said: "The fourth brother retreats, and the first battle is to let the third child come." ”
The strong wolf raised his eyes to look at the white snake and the green snake who were sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight on the side of the hall, stopped the embroidery needle in his hand, stood up and came to the thin venerable, looked down at the short knife on his waist, and said loudly: "Do you want to compete?"
The Thin Venerable looked up at this giant man who was half a person taller than him, and his face was afraid.
No one expected that at this time, Gongsun Tai, who was beside the Thin Venerable, stepped forward, drew his sword and stepped forward and said, "I'll do the first battle." ”
....................................
The wolf laughed and said, "It's the same for any of you. The words fell, and the bamboo hoop in his left hand was put into his arms, and a big fist was swung out.
His punch, the size of an ordinary person's palm, shot down at the door of Gongsun's table with a strong wind.
He didn't seem to put the knife cut by Gongsun Tai diagonally in his eyes at all, the disdain between his eyebrows, and the sweeping momentum when he made a move, as if the overlord of Chu was alive.
Even the white snake, who had the highest martial arts among the people present, couldn't help but secretly applaud when he saw it, replacing defense with offense, which was the best defense.
The strong wolf is tall and has long arms, and his punches are fast and practical, if Gongsun Tai does not avoid it, he will inevitably be smashed out by his punch at the same time as the knife slashes the strong wolf. In this way, even if this knife can cut the strong wolf, the effect will never be great.
Gongsun Tai was short-headed, his body curled up, and rolled forward like a leather ball. The knife in his hand changed to a stab, and it attacked the crotch of the powerful wolf.
This was a taboo in the rivers and lakes, and everyone present couldn't help laughing when they watched it. They understood that this was definitely not a deliberate act by Gongsun Tai, but was caused by the height gap between the two.
Don't look at the huge and bloated body of the strong wolf, but he is more agile than an ape in his movements, of course he can't let this knife hurt himself in such a critical place. The left foot touched the ground, and the person jumped high, and the embroidery needle in his right hand pointed to the top of Gongsun Tai's head.
In mid-air, it was like a big mountain pressing towards Gongsun Tai, and the middle finger, ring finger, and little finger of the wolf's right hand were raised high, and there was endless admiration.
"What a trick 'no sentient beings'!" Chu Chu wolf praised and sighed to himself.
