Chapter 40: The Former Division of the Temple of Blood
The official road not far from Fuya City is also mostly mountainous, forest and cliff because of the topography of Fuya City. Although these mountains and cliffs are not suitable for growing crops, they are wonderful places for wild animals and medicinal herbs in the mountains. There are many animals living there, and fine herbs.
At this time, on a steep cliff wall, a person was inserting a giant sword into the crack in the stone, grasping the hilt of the sword with one hand, and picking a medicinal herb not far away with the other hand and putting it into the medicine basket behind him. Then he looked at the reckless mountain cliff, and said to himself in a slightly lost way: "Alas, relying on this medicine, when will I have enough money to support Cuihua and her brother?"
Then he looked at the giant sword in his hand, and said with some uncertainty: "Do you want to rob the road?"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he quickly shook his head and said: "No, Daddy said when he was there, people can be poor but they can't take ill-gotten gains, and they can't bully the weak." Besides, I promised that gentleman yesterday. ”
After that, he looked at the sun in the distance that began to set westward in a little confusion.
This person is the big fat who is struggling to feed Cuihua, but now he is in a tangle.
At the same time, on the official road below, a group of sergeants and soldiers from the front division of the palace were about a hundred people, and they were galloping on horseback.
There was a prisoner cart in the center of the team, and the person in the prisoner cart was Ji Xingcheng, who was captured by Shui Wuxian in Dongma Pass.
However, while galloping, he suddenly found that the official road in front of him was blocked by a boulder, and immediately stopped the horse. He was about to dismount to clear the road, but suddenly a rain of arrows hit from the mountains and forests on both sides of the road.
Everyone hurriedly blocked the arrows, or formed a formation with shields, but still some people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground, Ji Xingcheng in the prisoner car was so frightened that he curled up and kept shouting: "Ah! Don't kill me, don't kill me, I am the major general of Shangliang State." ”
However, except for the guards in front of the prisoner's car, they did not pay attention to him.
Until only half of the sergeants and soldiers of the front division of the temple remained, and they were all agile people or those who formed the shield array, the arrows could no longer be helpless.
After the two general-looking people looked at each other, one of them shouted into the mountains and forests: "Who dares to obstruct the road and commit murder? ”
However, a leading man in the mountains and forests replied, "Hmph! ”
After speaking, dozens of black-clothed and masked thugs rushed out of the mountains and forests, holding weapons and surrounding everyone in front of the palace.
The movement here finally alarmed the big fat on the cliff, and after seeing from a distance that there was a man in black and a person from the government confronting him, his heart moved at the moment. Secretly said: "There are people below who are confronting the government, if I help the government, it's always okay to ask the government for some rewards, right?"
With his mind in mind, he immediately slashed between the cliffs with a giant sword, and walked towards the official road roughly.
Ji Xingcheng, who was in the prison car, was overjoyed when he saw the man in black, thinking that he was here to save him, and hurriedly said, "Are you here to save me?" ”
However, the man in black just looked at Ji Xingcheng in the prisoner car, and said disdainfully: "Ji Xing of Shangliang Country is also a well-known figure, but I didn't expect to give birth to such a wasteful son." ”
Then he ignored it.
At the same time, the shouting general saw the dozens of black-clothed masked people who appeared, and he was in a hurry, still knowing in his heart that the other party was prepared and would not be able to compromise. However, he still shouted and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"Ha-ha-ha-ha!"
After the black-clothed man at the head laughed proudly a few times, he took out a battle report from his chest and said to the general: "The purpose of my waiting here is actually very simple, my family hopes that the Lord of Qianhu can report the incident of Dongma Pass according to this battle report in my hand." If Qianhu cooperates, he will definitely be able to leave safely. ”
Qianhu was shocked when he heard this, and then said angrily: "You are sent by the Yinjian family. How dare we be so bold if we don't want to fight silver and practice more gold! As the former secretary of the palace, we are the world's king's favor, how can we be in the same stream as you. Only the ears of the war!"
"Only Zhan'er!"
The sergeant realm to which the temple front division belonged shouted after him.
After all, it is a battle to be prepared.
When the black-clothed man at the head heard this, he also became gloomy, and said grimly: "Hmph! ”
Then he commanded: "Kill, leave a few alive, there are always those who are willing to cooperate." ”
When the two parties heard this, they moved. Just as he was about to hand over the handover, there was a sudden movement overhead.
When everyone looked up, they saw a big lean man on the cliff holding a strange giant sword slashing between the cliffs, rudely and violently coming downward.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the big fat fell heavily on the official road, leaving deep footprints on the official road and startling dust.
The people on both sides watched vigilantly at the big fat that suddenly appeared in the dust in this way, not knowing friend or foe.
And the big fat in the dust, without the dust dispersed, after landing on the ground, he looked at the front of the palace and said: "Who can call the shots, officers?
Hearing the big fat culture, although Qianhu was puzzled, he didn't look like an accomplice of the man in black, and immediately replied: "I am Qianhu, the former secretary of the palace, and I am on a business trip, and I encountered gangsters who robbed the road and tried to do wrong." A strong man might help?"
Da Fat immediately said: "If I help, the general may ask for a reward for me?"
And Qianhu is overjoyed when he hears the words, although he doesn't know the depth of the big fat, but the person who appears like this is not bad. Then he said: "If the strong man can help us break through, I will definitely ask for a reward for the strong man." ”
At the same time, the leader of the man in black also hurriedly said: "Brother Tai, the Yinjian family is doing things, don't interfere, so as not to regret it in the future." If you help us, take down these soldiers of the front division of the palace. When I go up to my family, it will not be difficult to give you a thousand taels of silver. ”
"Hmph! The Yinjian family is really not a good thing!" However, after the big fat snorted coldly, the giant sword slashed out at the same time as he spoke, and a sword qi was stimulated, directly splitting a black-clothed man not far away who had no time to react in half.
The black-clothed leader was furious when he saw this, and shouted, "Look for death!"
He drew his knife and slashed at the big fat, and shouted at the same time: "Divide the gold knife method, divide the gold and break the jade." In the midst of the agitation, the knife qi flew and headed towards the big fat.
The big fat hurriedly resisted with his sword qi.
The front division of the palace and the man in black also fought together in an instant.
For a while, the sword light and sword shadow, sparks splashed everywhere, the sand and stones flew between the swords, and the flesh and blood flew between the sword qi and the sword.
After a fierce battle, due to the addition of the big fat, under the sharp sword qi, he killed more than ten black-clothed people by himself, and he relied on his own defense in addition to the sharp sword qi. In addition to receiving some small injuries and leaving a few gaps in the greatsword, he successfully killed the leader of the man in black.
After a fight, the front division of the palace finally won, but the personnel was sharply reduced again, and only more than 30 people remained. A large part of them died at the hands of the men in black to protect Ji Xingcheng in the prisoner car from being killed.
When the rest of the people were cleaning up the battlefield, the former Si Qianhu of the palace came to Da Fat and bowed to Da Fat: "Thank you for your help, if you are not a strong man this time, the result is unpredictable." After bringing it back to the city, I will ask for a reward for the strong man. ”
Da Fat wiped the blood on his face, and after a sigh of relief, he said, "Okay, thank you to the general for that." ”
And the front of the palace Si Qianhu tentatively continued: "It's a pity that the strong man is so skilled and does not reimburse the monarchy, why not push me to push the strong man to join the front division of the palace to serve the king and be loyal to the country." You can also have a stable income and rewards for completing tasks. Such enough to settle down and buy a home, wouldn't it be better than a strong man like this. ”
"Soldier?"
The big fat moved for a moment when he heard this, and then as if he suddenly remembered something, he politely refused: "Let's talk about this later! Let me think about it." ”
When thousands of households heard the rumors, they no longer had many words, but went over to inquire about the inventory.
Then the big fat sword split the boulder that was blocking the way, and cleaned it up. The group galloped away.
After the Shen Shi, the gates of Fuya City were still closed. The walls are also lit with lights.
Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and the lookouts on the city wall hurried to check.
Then he saw a group of soldiers and horses with blood on their armor coming towards the city gate.
Immediately hurriedly alerted, and shouted and asked, "Who is coming?"
And the pair of soldiers and horses shouted: "I am the former secretary of the palace and returned from a business, quickly open the city gate and let us enter." ”
When the lookout heard this, he hurried to report it.
Soon after, the gate was inspected and the token was confirmed, and the gate was opened, and the people went into the city.
