Chapter 018: Luring the Enemy
If people in the desert want to eat, they can only go out of the city and go to the sand to collect sand fruits.
Sand Fruits are everywhere, but Sand Beasts are also always wandering around the walled city, so it's not safe to go out.
Normally, it was a few low-ranking monks who went out with a group of mortals. They have a clear division of labor, with monks responsible for protecting the safety of mortals, and mortals responsible for gathering resources.
The harvested spiritual objects are naturally the monks', and the ordinary food is also the monk's head, while mortals can only leave a small part that can barely fill their stomachs.
Stronger monks usually team up to travel farther afield, collect more advanced spiritual materials, or hunt sand beasts.
The stronger ones will go beneath the sand and search for the caves left behind by the ancient monks. This behavior is known as "treasure hunting" in the desert.
The people of the Zhu Clan's merchant group hired experienced sand people in the walled city to learn the experience of collecting spiritual objects outside, so naturally they couldn't hide it from the head snake Blackwater Gang.
Ma Laohei sent people to stare at the every move of the merchant group, and as soon as Li Yunniang led people out of the city, they were blocked by the people of the Blackwater Gang.
This was the first time Li Yunniang had gone out to search for resources, and she only planned to collect some ordinary spiritual materials in the desert, and she didn't plan to go far, so she only brought five or six Qi cultivation period monks with her.
Ma Laohei's people were too anxious, and before they could go far, they caught up and started to move.
After Li Yunniang personally broke off, she let the others flee into the walled city first, and she herself escaped back with some injuries.
A few days later, Li Yunniang recovered from her injuries and went out again, this time she brought three foundation building monks, as well as more than ten Qi cultivation period monks, and when she left the walled city, she also provoked the people of the Blackwater Gang, obviously not convinced by the last injury.
Ma Laohei also increased his strength, and sent Zhao Liansheng, the deputy gang leader, to chase him out with five foundation building monks and more than twenty qi cultivation monks.
But this time, Ma Laohei's people returned with a feather, not only did more than a dozen monks die during the Qi training period, but even two monks died in Zhuji, and the rest were injured and escaped.
Seeing that Zhao Liansheng came back with heavy losses, Ma Laohei was angry, and a slap slapped him more than two feet away!
He roared: "Zhao Liansheng, what's the matter! You have twice as many people as them, why are so many people still dead!"
"Helper!"
Zhao Liansheng crawled to the ground in front of Ma Laohei, knelt on the ground and said: "Helper, it's not that the subordinates are incompetent, it's that the woman of the Zhu Chamber of Commerce is too powerful, and one person dragged us two foundation building monks, and they also hid their strength, and released two second-order crocodile monsters from the spirit beast bag, we were careless for a while, and were attacked by the crocodile monsters, and then the woman took the opportunity to kill one person......"
"Rubbish!"
Ma Laohei kicked Zhao Liansheng away and shouted: "Come on, follow me out of the walled city, you must find this field today!"
At this time, another deputy gang leader, Qian Kui, persuaded: "Gang leader, the strength of this Zhu Chamber of Commerce is not weak, although our Blackwater Gang can take care of them, I'm afraid it will also cause a lot of damage!"
Qian Kui is considered a think tank of the Blackwater Gang, and he is deeply relied on by Ma Laohei, and he also respects his advice.
Ma Laohei held back his anger and thought about it for a while before he nodded and said, "Okay, please come over to Hu Lin, and I'll talk to him personally!"
Because they have to fight the Sands Gang together, the Blackwater Gang and the Tempest Gang have always advanced and retreated together.
In the past, once the Blackwater encountered an enemy that they couldn't solve, they would pull in the Tempest, and when the Tempest encountered an enemy that they couldn't solve, they would also ask the Blackwater for help.
The strength of the Tempest Gang is not as good as that of the Blackwater Gang, so Hu Lin has always been the first to look at Ma Laohei, and when he received Ma Laohei's call, he hurried over.
After listening to Ma Laohei's plan to invite him to deal with the Zhu Clan's merchant group together, Hu Lin shook his head: "Boss Ma, I heard that you have suffered a loss from the Zhu Clan's merchant group, it seems that they are not simple, who knows if there are any means to hide!"
Brother Ma, if you listen to your brother's advice, let's admit this loss, anyway, they are the Chamber of Commerce, and they always have to leave Heiquanji, so they can't pose a threat to us! If we lose too many manpower because of dealing with them, how will we face the suppression of the Jinsha Gang in the future?"
Ma Laohei suddenly became furious: "What? Forget it? No, my Ma Lao started from black and white, and I have worked hard until now, and I have never suffered such a big loss! The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, this Zhu Chamber of Commerce is not a strong dragon, plus the few monsters he hid, it is only equivalent to the strength of seven or eight foundation building monks! Lao Hu, we have been advancing and retreating together for so many years, you can't retreat this time!"
Seeing that Hu Lin was still hesitating, Ma Laohei gritted his teeth: "In this way, after destroying the Zhu Chamber of Commerce, all the spoils will be yours, I just want the woman who killed the sand lion beast, how about it!"
Hu Lin thought for a moment, but still shook his head: "Brother Ma, if this Zhu clan merchant group comes to grab the territory, I have to follow you desperately and destroy them all!"
Seeing that Hu Lin was reluctant to participate, Ma Laohei gritted his teeth and continued to increase his chips: "Lao Hu, this time you help me win the Zhu Clan's business group, not only the spoils of war will belong to you, but the income of my casino in the next year will also belong to you, how about it!"
Hu Lin's heart suddenly moved, he was thinking about the gains and losses, and suddenly Ma Laohei's subordinates hurriedly came over to report: "Helper, the Zhu family's merchant group suddenly left, and now it has left the walled city!"
"What?"
Ma Laohei suddenly jumped up and roared, he grabbed the collar of this subordinate: "Say it again!"
The subordinate was startled by the angry Ma Laohei, and said tremblingly: "Help...... Helper, Zhu ...... The people of the merchant group had just hurriedly left the city and headed towards the depths of the desert......"
Ma Laohei pushed his subordinates away, and suddenly laughed: "This Zhu clan merchant group knows that I won't let them go, this is an escape." It seems that they have no hole cards anymore!Hmph, how far can you escape in this desert, come, gather people, and follow me to chase them!"
He turned to look at Hu Lin again: "Brother Hu, you have to gather people quickly." If you're late, I've already taken down the Zhu Clan's business group, and I won't give you any more benefits!"
After Ma Laohei finished speaking, he didn't care about Hu Lin, hurried out of the door, beckoned his men and horses, and chased out of the city after riding the sand camel beast!
Hu Lin scolded behind his back, this Ma Lao Hei Tai is not a thing, just now he said that all the loot belongs to me, and I have to give up the profits of the casino for a year, and now I see that the Zhu merchant group has fled, so I won't mention this stubble!
No, I have to hurry up, otherwise let Ma Laohei destroy the Zhu family business group first, and there will be an excuse not to share my benefits!
Hu Lin didn't dare to delay, and sent out several transmission talismans in a row to prepare his subordinates, and then left the Blackwater Gang and returned to the Tempest Gang to bring people.
It didn't take long for Jin Wuda to receive a report from his subordinates: "Gang leader, the Zhu Clan's merchant group has evacuated Heiquan Ji, Ma Laohei has already led all the people to chase after him, and the Tempest Gang is also gathering people, and they are about to set off!"
Jin Wuda was still fiddling with the long knife in his hand, and was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Ma Laohei is a mad dog, that Zhu Lin is a more dangerous sand wolf, and the Blackwater Gang is only afraid that it will suffer this time! You send someone to take a look, but don't interfere! These outsiders are a big trouble for our sand people, let them fight, the harder the fight, the better!"
......
In the desert, it is impossible to delay the pursuit of others, because after a long time, the traces on the sand road will be buried by the wind and sand, and no trace of the enemy can be found.
Ma Laohei took the people of the Blackwater Gang out of the city and chased them along the traces of the Zhu Chamber of Commerce.
The two clearly visible wheel tracks are extremely eye-catching, which are the traces left by the beast cart.
For the tracked beast car invented by Zhu Youdao, Ma Laohei scoffed.
This kind of beast cart will slow down the speed of the team's walking, and will also leave clear rut marks, it is difficult to chase the wrong way! Although it is comfortable to sit in the car, is the desert a place to enjoy?
Half a day later, Ma Laohei finally caught up with the Zhu business group.
Seeing that they couldn't escape, the Zhu merchant group surrounded the sand camel beasts in a circle and used them as a wall, and their men hid inside, not daring to come out.
Ma Laohei rode the sand camel around the caravan in a circle, and when he saw the obviously flustered crowd inside, he became more and more excited.
People are fish and meat, and I am a knife!
Ma Laohei likes this feeling of controlling the fate of others the most!
There was a shout from the Zhu family's merchant group: "Ma Gang Master, why are you chasing after us, we are serious businessmen, we never take the initiative to make enemies with others, it's good for the Ma Gang Master to let us live!"
Ma Laohei sneered and said: "Don't talk nonsense, surnamed Zhu, your people killed the sand lion beast, not to mention, but also killed my two subordinates in the foundation building period, you know the woman who killed the person, I may consider sparing your life!"
Zhu Youdao's voice was a little frightened: "Ma gang leader, Neiko killed your people, I have already taught her a lesson! I am willing to make compensation, I hope you will let us live!"
"Less nonsense!"
Ma Laohei said impatiently: "Since you are unwilling to surrender, then don't blame me for doing it myself! The entire Black Spring Collection knows that my Ma Laohei's subordinates never leave a living! However, I will spare a life for your woman, hehe......"
Zhu Youdao's eager voice came from the caravan: "Give up the caravan materials, all the foundation building monks, break through with me and fly to the northwest......"
Ma Laohei was afraid that people would flee, so he shouted: "Give it all to me, no one is allowed to let go!"
After he finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed over, and as soon as he rushed into the wall formed by the sand camel beasts, he saw that there were array flags fluttering in all directions, but he couldn't see a single figure.
When he turned around, not only was there no way to retreat, but even the men behind him were gone!
"Oh no, it's a circle!"
Ma Laohei was shocked in his heart, knowing that he had fallen into an ambush!
Through the magic circle, he heard Zhu Youdao's voice: "Yun Niang, Ma Laohei will be handed over to you, I will take down the others, and we will rely on them to help us take care of the business of Heiquanji in the future......"
