Chapter 44: Siege Wei and Rescue Zhao
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.
Xu Yang was worried that he didn't know the specific situation on the mountain, so God sent him a tongue.
Although the gesture of this tongue at the time of arrest was not very elegant, it did not affect the acquisition of information.
Soon, Xu Yang got what he wanted from the mouth of this tall and thin man.
During this time, people came to take refuge one after another, and the robbers on Matou Mountain have now grown to sixty or seventy people, although there are some green-skinned villains who can only wave their flags and shout, but there are not a few people in the rivers and lakes with martial arts.
What's even more terrifying is that after the strength of these robbers has swelled dramatically, they have given up the concept of seeking wealth for thousands of miles, and have killed two groups of merchants who came from another direction in the past two days.
And Zhang Jieren and his gang were too high-profile, and at the beginning of entering the mountain, the robbers had already learned of their arrival.
So the robbers of Matou Mountain immediately organized men and horses to set up an ambush in a place called Black Wind Forest, and now they are luring Zhang Jieren's gang into the ambush circle, intending to kill them all.
"Shopkeeper, what should we do now?" Zhang Tianxiang asked in a low voice.
Although those guys with over-eyed eyes are also to blame, but just watching them go to death like this, I always feel sorry for it.
After all, those guys are among their kindred spirits.
Xu Yang pondered slightly for a while, and then said decisively: "You follow me!"
After calculating the time, those guys are already about to enter the ambush circle of the robbers, and it is useless to rush over and notify them now.
I just learned from the thin and tall man's mouth that the small temple on the top of the mountain was the base camp of this gang of robbers, and at this time, there were only seven or eight people left in the small temple.
So Xu Yang's mind turned, he didn't do it, he didn't stop fighting, he simply smashed the other party's lair to see if it could have the effect of encircling Wei and saving Zhao.
Since most of the robbers in Matou Mountain went to the Black Wind Forest to ambush, Xu Yang and the four people who rushed to the top of the mountain did not encounter robbers along the way.
Approaching the top of the mountain, Xu Yang and the four of them slowed down and quietly touched the small temple not far away.
Getting closer and closer to the small temple on the top of the mountain, Xu Yang, who was walking in the front to explore the way, suddenly stopped, made a gesture behind him, and dodged behind a tree.
The three guys who followed immediately followed and hid.
After a few moments, there was no movement around.
Zhang Tianxiang had some doubts in his heart and was about to ask.
I saw Xu Yang signaling him not to speak, and then stretched out his hand and pointed to a big tree more than ten zhang away.
Zhang Tianxiang took a closer look in the direction Xu Yang pointed and was taken aback.
Good fellow, there is a figure squatting on that big tree with very dense leaves.
Fortunately, Xu Yang reminded him in time, otherwise they would have been discovered by the other party.
Fortunately, Zhang Tianxiang couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart.
The distance is so far, and that guy is hiding so hidden, he thinks that he has a very strong perception ability, and he didn't even notice the existence of the other party, how did the black-hearted shopkeeper find out?
But before Zhang Tianxiang could figure out what was going on, there was a sudden noise of fighting and killing in a valley in the southwest corner.
Zhang Tianxiang's heart sank, it was obvious that Zhang Jieren's gang had already dealt with the robbers in ambush.
But he can't help it now, so he can only let those guys fend for themselves.
Hearing this voice, the guy who was squatting on the branch breathed a sigh of relief.
He stood up and looked around for a while, and when he saw that there was no movement around him, he jumped down from the tree.
After landing, this guy rubbed his feet and scolded and said: "Straight lady thief, it's finally a fight, and after grinding for so long, my feet are numb." ”
Xu Yang, who was hiding not far away, immediately gestured to Zhang Tianxiang, and then the two of them relied on the shelter of the surrounding stones and trees and quietly touched the guy.
At the same time, four fellows ran out of the small temple not far away, and they stood on a large rock at the entrance of the temple, looking at the valley where the sound of killing was heard.
Although they couldn't see anything at all, the guys still stood on their feet and looked southwest.
One of the guys scolded in annoyance, "it, Erlenzi was sent this time, but he was sent out by the third master." ”
A guy next to him answered: "Alas, just a few of us are unlucky, every time we go out, we don't have our share, we all join the house for half a month, and we don't get a few dollars, and if it goes on like this, Lao Tzu will quit and go home to farm and count the ball." ”
At this time, the guy who had just jumped down from the tree scolded the kid who was standing on the big rock and complaining: "San Mazi, you fucking take as much money as Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu squatted on the tree and blew the cold wind for a long time without complaining, you shouted a ball there." ”
The other party is not easy to mess with, and when he opened his mouth, he scolded, "Xu Toutou, you deserve to let the cold wind blow you to death, the third master asked you to go down to help, you don't go yourself, who can blame you?"
"Go down and help? hehe, I won't do such a dangerous thing, isn't it just a little less money, what's the matter, how safe it is for me to stay here." The guy who was called Xu Big-Headed chuckled in a low voice.
At this time, Xu Yang and Zhang Tianxiang had quietly touched a big stone less than a zhang away from the big tree.
Hearing the word "safety" come out of this guy's mouth, Zhang Tianxiang, who was hiding behind the stone, showed a strange smile.
Hehe, boy, I'll let you know later, as long as you get in the way of Young Master Ben, it's not safe anywhere.
Xu Datou, who didn't know that the danger was infinitely approaching, moved his body that was a little stiff by the cold wind for a moment, and then planned to go back to the tree to continue to watch.
As soon as he lifted his breath, he jumped onto the branch of the tree on which he had squatted.
But before this guy jumped up from the ground, he saw Zhang Tianxiang suddenly flash out from behind the stone, and then flashed behind Xu's head with a rather strange body method, grabbed the other party's throat with one hand and stomped back directly.
After returning to the stone, Zhang Tianxiang, who stunned the other party with one palm, raised his eyebrows at Xu Yang triumphantly.
That means as if to say: See, a little thief, this young master is ready to capture.
Xu Yang gave him a roll of the eyes, dealing with a guy whose martial arts cultivation is only a third-rate top-grade, are you embarrassed to ask for credit?
However, Xu Yang is very hot about Zhang Tianxiang's elusive light skills.
As a wild man, except for the basic knife technique, which is a bit of a posture, the others rely on internal strength to do it.
Of course, because of the blessing of the skill of opening the eyes of the sky, many times the problem can be solved by brute force.
But this did not dispel Xu Yang's envy of Zhang Tianxiang.
After all, he was born in a professional class, and he has been systematically trained since he was a child, and his combat skills are more comprehensive than his.
Therefore, Xu Yang felt that he had to find an opportunity to learn some martial arts techniques, otherwise he would rely on his quick eyes and hands to do it, and after a long time, many shortcomings would be exposed.
