107 Dusk, crows!
The sun sets, the sun sets.
I don't know when, a black-robed man with a three-foot Qingfeng at his waist, silently appeared next to the tombstone like a ghost, wearing a hat and unable to see his face clearly, and placed a white flower on the tombstone of Fei Xingchou.
He looked at the tombstone silently for a while, and disappeared directly without alarming the two people next to the tomb.
"Your brother is here. ”
Su Chen sat beside the tombstone, twisting the blades of grass, looking at the movement of the northern reeds.
The six great grandmasters who are still alive in Wu County have arrived.
Han Shu sat on the other side of the tombstone, a look of doubt on her face. How did Su Chen know that her brother was here.
Chief Manager Liu took the remnants of the Heavenly Eagle Gate disciples to transport the corpses of the same sect to Sucheng, but she didn't leave.
Her brother was the number one assassin in Wu County, and he never told her what he did on weekdays, and no one knew his whereabouts. Even the Aquila Gate was almost destroyed, and he didn't appear. In her heart, there was some resentment.
...
In order to cover the retreat of the main force of the defeated coalition army from the Ethereal Peak, Sun Baihong released a lot of poisonous insects and poisons at the foot of the mountain, making it take a little time for the army of water bandits to clean them up.
However, these are all small things that do not affect the overall situation.
This West Dongting Mountain Island is so big, the ships have long been destroyed, even if you give the government coalition an hour to escape, you won't be able to escape anywhere.
The giant whale gang had 10,000 water bandits, 3,000 disciples of the White Lotus Sect, dozens of first-class Taoist masters from the Hanshan Taoist Temple, and a huge coalition of water bandits entered Shili North Ludang.
The real person in the cold mountain is in the middle, riding a horse slowly.
Liu Hong, the leader of the Giant Whale Gang, and Mao Ziyuan, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, each rode on a left and a right, each leading the elite White Lotus Warriors and the big and small leaders of the water bandits, and the real people of Hanshan in the middle of the Gongwei to enter the ten miles of North Ludang.
Liu Hong looked at the dozens of loyal White Lotus wrestlers under Mao Ziyuan with envy, all covered with a faint yellow light shield.
This is the golden armor spirit rune sold by Hanshan Zhenren to Mao Ziyuan, the price is expensive, but it is very effective, each golden armor spirit rune can resist at least ten first-class masters' stabs. Before the enemy had time to pierce the golden armor, they had already hacked their opponent to death.
Liu Hong looked quite envious, and he also asked real people to buy it.
But Hanshan Zhenren was reluctant to sell it to him.
It is said that the White Lotus Sect was slandered as a demon by the government and the people of the world, and since it is a demon Dao, it is not surprising that some "demon talismans" of demons and evil calamities are drawn.
But if a gang like the Giant Whale Gang also has a lot of spirit runes, it will be too suspicious, and it will attract unnecessary speculation and suspicion of his Hanshan real person.
Liu Hong listened, Hanshan Zhenren acted cautiously, and this is also the reason.
But he always vaguely felt that the real person was a little partial to Mao Ziyuan and a little wary of him, and refused to sell him a few copies of this kind of good thing.
Liu Hong didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction, Hanshan Zhenren had a mysterious origin, his strength was unfathomable, and there were a lot of this kind of magical spirit runes in his hand, not only the golden armor runes, no one knew how many magical and strange magic runes.
Liu Hong complimented: "Real person, Han Pingshan is dead, Li Shuo is only good at fighting, and the medicine king Sun Baihong only has those poisonous methods, and the two of them are not our enemies." There shouldn't be much suspense in this battle!"
Mao Ziyuan also hurriedly said: "This all depends on the ingenuity of the real person, and he has strategized to lure tens of thousands of elites of gangs of all sizes in Wujun County and thousands of officers and soldiers of the imperial court to the island and catch them all." The thirteen counties of Wu County no longer have the power to resist, and they will soon be our world. ”
Although there is a medicine king Sun Baihong who performs thaumaturgy, he destroys a thousand water ghosts in the Taihu Lake Ghost Hall.
Later, he and Li Shuo exerted their might in Beiludang and killed thirty white lotus wrestlers with golden armor.
But these are all trivial things, and they are not enough to reverse the overall situation that Hanshan Zhenren has spent more than ten years and has long been deployed.
Even Han Pingshan, a generation of grandmasters who was a pioneer, was killed in battle, and the Aquila Gate was almost destroyed. When attacking the Ethereal Peak, the imperial court coalition army suffered even more casualties, with countless casualties.
The coalition forces had collapsed and fled to the shores of the lake in the north of Ludang, leaving only their last dying throes.
Hanshan Zhenren said flatly, "Li Shuo and Sun Baihong are naturally not worried. The only thing left to worry about was the jackdaw. ”
"Not bad!"
"That's right. ”
Liu Hong and Mao Ziyuan thought so.
They were not afraid of Li Shuo and Sun Baihong, but they were afraid of the assassin Jackdaw, the second grandmaster of Wu County.
After all, day and night defense, there is always a time when a hundred secrets are sparse. is also a master of the Grandmaster Realm, as long as he is negligent, he may be killed.
"Jackdaw is also strange, you say that before the war, he doesn't show up. The Aquila Gate was almost destroyed, but he actually endured it. The Ethereal Peak coalition army was defeated, and this battle was almost over, why didn't he show up yet?
Liu Hong wondered.
"The jackdaw can endure it, and ordinary people can't bear it, so he is the first peerless assassin in Wu County and the second grandmaster. It's still above you and me!"
Mao Ziyuan sighed.
Hanshan Zhenren was silent for a long time.
Assassins, not generals. Victory or defeat on the battlefield was not the duty of the Assassins. True assassins do only one thing, kill. Kill whoever he wants to kill.
Everything else is a distraction that must be left behind.
Even, the assassin never showed his face. If you don't show up, you're an assassin, and if you show up, you're a dead soldier. Doomed, Jackdaw was a lone assassin, very alone.
Hanshan Zhenren said lightly: "His target is not you. ”
"And what does he want to do?"
Liu Hong was surprised.
"He just wants to kill the real person.
He stared at me for a long time, but he couldn't find my flaws. Because I've been waiting for him, guarding against him. He has a special habit of never making a move during the day, only at sunset and after the crow cries. ”
Hanshan Zhenren said, showing a rare sneer.
Jackdaw has been in retreat for more than 20 years, just to surpass him. If he doesn't show up, he is also looking for the most suitable opportunity to assassinate him.
Look at this sky, the sunset is shining on the blood-colored ethereal peaks, and it is time to watch the sunset at dusk.
Liu Hong and Mao Ziyuan looked stunned.
If Hanshan Zhenren is a dragon who sees the head but does not see the end, then the jackdaw is a madman who cultivates in retreat, and he rarely shows his face on the rivers and lakes. They had only heard of jackdaws, and knew very little.
I didn't expect that Hanshan Zhenren had such a detailed grasp of the information of this mysterious jackdaw. No wonder the real person is the tallest person in Wu County, and others can only look up to it.
"Quack~!"
Ahead, suddenly, several night crows rose from the reeds.
"Stop!"
Hanshan Zhenren suddenly reined in his horse, waved his hand to stop the army of water bandits, and looked indifferently at the endless reeds in front of him.
Although, there is no abnormal aura.
But he instinctively sensed that something was wrong.
Liu Hong's eyes were gloomy, his heart was awe-inspiring, and he quietly took a few steps back and stayed a little away from the real person of Hanshan. Li Biao, the deputy gang leader, and other first-class masters of the water bandit leaders quickly guarded the gang leader Liu Hong tightly.
"Quick, all the wrestlers to escort!"
Mao Ziyuan was a little flustered.
A group of more than twenty or thirty White Lotus wrestlers with pale yellow light on their bodies around them guarded their sect leader in the middle, guarding the surrounding movements.
However, in the reeds ahead, after a few night crows, there was no movement.
Such a stalemate is not the way to go.
Hanshan Zhenren said in a deep voice: "Aoki, the four of you go to the front to see what the situation is!"
With a casual slap of his hand, he shot out four inferior spirit runes, and the pale yellow blessing was on them. He also knew that these inferior talismans were of little use in the face of the Grandmaster, but it was better than nothing.
"Yes, Master!"
The faces of the four pro-disciples turned a little pale, but they didn't dare to disobey the order, and immediately each held the Qingfeng Sword, and the four of them leaned on each other's backs, joined hands to guard, and cautiously explored the way forward.
The four of them walked dozens of feet away.
"Quack~~!"
Suddenly, there was a crow's noise.
Looming in the reeds, the man in black, the hat, the cold clothes, and the three-foot green front at the waist.
"It's not good, it's cold~...!"
The four disciples were horrified and hurriedly turned around and fled.
"Qiang ——!"
The black shadow disappeared suddenly, and the green blade was unsheathed, and a black light swept by.
Reeds, swaying in the breeze.
Aoki, Qingshan, Qingyun, and Qingshi rushed to the front of the Hanshan real car, but their faces were full of horror and horror, and there was a shallow crack in their necks, and they all fell to the ground and died.
Behind them, there was no sign of them.
Hanshan Zhenren glanced indifferently at the four personal disciples who fell to the ground, he reined in his horse, left the army of water bandits, and walked forward alone for more than ten zhang.
"Jackdaw, come out. ”
"You also know that it is no match for me. The world is in turmoil, and it has been an eventful time. It's better for you and me to join forces, annex the thirteen counties of Wu County, and raise troops to divide the dozens of rich counties in the south of the Yangtze River!
With the help of Liu Hong and Mao Ziyuan, Benzhen has robbed a large number of officers and soldiers of grain and grass, and raised enough grain and grass for tens of thousands of troops to rebel, which is enough to sweep the counties in the south of the Yangtze River. It's just that I don't have strong generals under my command! If you are willing to serve me, you will also have a share in this world. ”
"I killed all your personal disciples, aren't you angry?"
A faint voice, drifting around in the reeds, said lightly.
"If a real person wants to do great things, is it just an ordinary man's temperament. Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find. If you are willing to surrender, the five of them will die for the cause and die as they deserve... Besides, the Whale Gang almost wiped out your Aquila Gate and killed your sister, which was not my intention. Take their lives as an offset, to appease your anger. ”
Hanshan Zhenren's eyes drooped, covering the light in his eyes, discerning the direction of the voice, and said lightly.
