Chapter 21: Eliminate Shangguan
Seeing that Ye Feng agreed, Chu Ping explained his plan to Chief Shi Bao: "Master Bao, please go and select a few shrewd and capable strong men, let them pretend to be merchants, and then prepare five large wooden boxes with locks, in three of them, just put some stones, as for the other two, leave them to me and Brother Ye." After all this is ready, we will pass by the Qinglong Mountain in disguise as merchants, and I am sure that the Ghost Sect will come down the mountain to snatch these five large wooden boxes. When the time comes, you will retreat immediately, and as for the rest of the matter, it will be left to me and Brother Ye to do it. ”
After hearing this, Shi Baochang frowned slightly, and said quite worriedly: "Although the idea is good, isn't it a little too dangerous to do this? Only the two of you go to deal with those thieves, in case there is a mistake, and there is no helper, then how can you be born!"
Chu Ping said with relief: "Please be relieved, as the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger! If you don't take the risk, how can you blend into the devil's cave? ”
"Okay then, I hope the two heroes can be safe!"
Shi Baochang went to prepare, and Chu Ping came to the little brother of the pharmacy station, untied the rope for him, and said: "Little brother, I think you are a good person, so I will let you go, I hope you should go home quickly, don't mix with those thieves again." This man was very grateful, and left Sanshi Town to return home.
When Shi Baochang made everything ready, Chu Ping and Ye Feng each got into a big wooden box, and Shi Baochang ordered people to lock the five wooden boxes, leading several strong men to escort the five big wooden boxes in the direction of Qinglong Mountain.
After almost an hour of travel, Shi Baochang and his party finally came to the foot of Qinglong Mountain, and the chief made several strong men slow down their pace and lure the thieves down the mountain to grab the wooden box.
After a long time, a long time, it seemed that he was about to walk out of the mountain, but he didn't see any thieves rushing down the mountain, Shi Baochang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and secretly thought to himself: "Could it be that the plan of the two heroes is in the soup like this? After a burst of gongs, sure enough, a lot of thieves rushed down from the mountain, and quickly surrounded their team of pretending merchants, Shi Baochang roughly counted, there were almost twenty thieves, led by a leader, strode forward, and shouted: "Ah! I advise you to obediently give all these belongings to the uncle, and I will keep them, otherwise, I will not blame the uncle, I am not polite to you!"
Shi Baochang stepped forward and waved at him: "The king spares his life! Our group of people have been traveling for several days with these five large boxes of silver, and it is indeed not easy, please raise your noble hand and let us go?"
As soon as the thief heard that the five boxes were full of silver, his eyes lit up, and he smiled excitedly: "Since these are all silver, then you should leave them for me!
"It's ......! I'll get out!" Shi Baochang nodded again and again, beckoned back, and led several strong men to quickly escape.
The thief smiled proudly, stepped forward, stretched out his hand and stroked the five large wooden boxes, tried to push them with his hand, and moved them, but he didn't move at all, and couldn't help but laugh excitedly: "Oh! It's really enough! This is really a fortune!" One of the thieves was about to step forward and cut off the lock on the wooden box, but was stopped by the leader of the thieves: "Ah! Don't touch this box, have you kid forgotten the lesson of Li Er last time, he just stole ten taels of silver and was beaten to death by our Shangguan Sect Master, do you kid want to be like Li Er, and end up with a personal death and no money?"
The thief smiled helplessly and said, "Brother Fei, you misunderstood, I, I definitely don't dare to take the silver, I just want to open the box to take a look and see what kind of good treasures are inside, and I definitely don't dare to steal it!"
The leader of Fei waved his hand and said: "Okay, Zhang Qian, I advise you not to open it, you don't know, our Shangguan Sect Master has always been suspicious by nature, once he sees that the box has been opened, he will definitely suspect that someone has stolen his silver, you say that when the time comes, can you still say clearly?"
After hearing this, Zhang Qian nodded again and again and said, "Okay then! I'll listen to Brother Fei, just don't open it." ”
Then he beckoned to all the thieves, "Brothers, hurry up and carry all these five chests of silver back to the mountain!" All the thieves moved together and lifted up the five large wooden chests and went back to the mountain. Shi Baochang and the others saw that the thief really hit the plan, so he appeared again, and the chief of the security ordered one of them to rush to the county government to move the rescuers, while he and the other people stayed here, quietly waiting for the news, everyone's hearts, but it was really mixed, both happy and worried.
Let's say that Chu Ping and Ye Feng hid in the wooden box, only to feel that the road was very bumpy, and they almost didn't break up their bodies. I don't know how long I walked, the thief came to a stone door, and suddenly put down the box with a "coo" sound, which shocked Ye Feng only felt pain in his buttocks, and scolded softly angrily: "What a thief eight lambs! Do you dare to throw me to death? Hmph! You wait for me, after I go out for a while, I have to clean up your brutes well!"
After the thieves put down the box, the leader of Fei came to the stone gate and shouted loudly into the door: "Hey! Listen, the people inside are listening, I Fei has captured the tiger and cut the path back to the mountain!"
After a while, I heard someone shouting from inside the door, "Where is the ghost door open?"
Fei Baohu replied: "Three thousand people in the United States!"
The people in the door shouted again: "Who can subdue the tiger and descend the dragon?"
Fei Baohu replied: "The four seas are kings, and I am the only one!"
As soon as the words fell, I heard a sound of "boom", the stone door slowly opened, and the thieves lifted the box and walked into the door. Ye Feng, who was hiding in the box, couldn't help but smile secretly, and said: "What a group of shameless thieves, they even came to the bullshit code, it's really not too troublesome! Fortunately, Brother Chu came up with such a method, otherwise, let alone entering the thief's nest, I'm afraid even this door will definitely not be so easy to enter!" Since then, Ye Feng has admired Chu Ping even more.
The thief carried five wooden boxes around, and I don't know how many bends he turned, and finally came to the main hall of the Ghost Sect, only to see that there was not much light in a huge cave, and it was cold and dim like the Senluo Palace, which was both gloomy and terrifying. Fei Baohu strode up the steps, knelt on the ground on both knees, bowed three times upward, clasped his hands into fists, and saluted: "Sect Leader Qiqi, I waited for a short time to go down the mountain, and fortunately met a team of merchants escorting five large boxes of silver from the bottom of Qinglong Mountain, we intercepted all these five large boxes of silver, and specially carried them up the mountain to present them to the sect master, please check the sect leader himself!"
Shangguan Cheng smiled excitedly: "Okay! Very good! You have done a good job! Stay for a while, this sect leader will definitely reward you well." ”
"Thank you, Sect Master!" said Fei Baohu kowtowing upwards in thanks.
Shangguan Cheng asked people to open all five large wooden boxes and prepare them for inspection. As soon as the first wooden box was opened, the thief couldn't help but be stunned and exclaimed, "Tell the sect master, the big thing is not good! This box is filled with stones!"
"What? stones!" Shangguan Cheng was surprised, quickly walked down the steps to take a look for himself, and saw that the box was indeed filled with stones, raised his hand to shoot down the lock on the other box, and found that it was also filled with stones, and suddenly felt angry, turned around, and shouted angrily at Fei Baohu: "Fei Baohu, let me ask you, what is going on? Could it be that you have exchanged all the silver for stones without authorization?"
Fei Baohu was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a "poof" and repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Sect Master, spare your life! Even if your subordinates have the courage to do this, they don't dare to do this! Please think about it carefully, these five boxes are all locked, and the subordinates and others do not have the key to unlock them, so how can they be secretly exchanged? I hope that the sect leader will be able to see clearly!"
Shangguan Cheng nodded and said, "Well, there is some truth to this! So, what is going on? Could it be that someone is deliberately trying to play tricks on this sect master?"
Chu Ping and Ye Feng finally couldn't hold it anymore, and struggled to break through the box and jumped out, shouting loudly: "Oh! Shangguan Xiao'er, prepare to die!" As soon as the words fell, the swords swung together, and the sword light and sword qi went straight to Shangguan City, so startled that Shangguan Cheng hurriedly dodged it, and the people in the entire cave were all stunned by this sudden scene. After Chu Ping and Ye Feng landed and gained a firm foothold, Shangguan Cheng was shocked and asked, "Who are you, why did you set up such a scheme and sneak into the Ghost Palace of this sect master?"
Ye Feng pointed at Shangguan Cheng with a knife, sneered a few times, and shouted: "Shangguan Xiao'er, you used the quenched umbilical cord blood to cultivate evil skills, but you miserably harmed those originally healthy babies, causing them to be dumb for the rest of their lives, and you even made people block the road and rob the property of passing merchants.
Walking the tricks, Shangguan Cheng's claw method gradually deteriorated, and he was a little flustered in his heart, so as not to be harmed, and he was strong enough to carry ten percent of his skills, and slammed the swords of the two with both hands, and the three of them retreated a few steps back, Chu Ping and Ye Feng only felt that their arms were shocked and numb, Ye Feng secretly sighed: "This kid's ghost ghost claw has not yet been fully trained, so it has such power, if he is practiced, then it will be done! If you don't get rid of him today, it will become a big disaster in the future!"
Shangguan Cheng stood firm, only felt unbearable pain in his chest, and almost vomited blood, and secretly exclaimed: "The skills of these two people are not trivial, and they are not expected to be ordinary people. Take a closer look at the person with the sword, some of them resemble the golden wind old hair's dragon snatching knife technique, but I don't know who he is?" After a little exercise, he asked: "I think the two of you are by no means idle, as the so-called Ming people don't do dark things, why don't you report your own name first, and then it's not too late to take the initiative with this sect!"
Ye Feng put away the knife for the time being, and shouted loudly: "Shangguan Xiao'er, you have listened carefully to me, this person next to me is Chu Ping Chu Shaoxia from the Tianshan Mountains, and I am the one who is known as the 'Deadly Swordsman', the eldest disciple of the Golden Wind Dao people, and the surname is Ye Mingfeng!"
"What?" Shangguan Cheng was stunned and shouted angrily, "It turns out that you are the apprentice of the old thief of the Golden Wind. Eighteen years ago, the old thief of the Golden Wind and the eight ghosts of Miao Jiang brutally killed my father, and even my mother, who was not good at martial arts, did not let go. Since you have personally sent you to the door today, this sect leader will kill you first, and then go to Miao Jiang to find the old thief of the golden wind, in order to avenge the murder of his father and mother! Stinky boy, take your life!" As soon as the words came out, he waved his claws and swooped in front of Ye Feng, Chu Ping and Ye Feng each stepped forward with swords, and the two sides started a fierce battle again. I saw that Shangguan Cheng's body and footwork were like lightning, as erratic as a ghost, and the direct sect could not find the target of the attack, and he also looked for opportunities from time to time to secretly attack the two. Chu Ping and Ye Feng were in their own formations, each holding a sword and trying their best to parry, and attacked decisively, but they couldn't hurt Shangguan Cheng at all.
Ye Feng held a knife to meet the enemy, and used a night battle to hide the knife, and shouted angrily: "Hmph! Shangguan Xiao'er, you bastard, you are not fighting at all, but just trying to escape for your life! Shangguan Cheng, there is a kind, have a good fight with me face to face, don't always do a sneak attack behind your mother's back!" As soon as the words came out, he was slapped in the back by Shangguan Cheng coldly, and spit out a mouthful of blood with a "poof". Chu Ping couldn't help but be taken aback, quickly stepped forward to support Ye Feng, and said with concern: "Brother Ye, how do you feel?"
Ye Feng wiped the blood ulcer from the corner of his mouth with his hand, smiled and said, "Brother Chu, please rest assured, I'm fine!" Although this kid's body is fast, his claw skills are not good, and he can't kill me with this palm!"
"That's good!" Chu Fang was relieved and said: "Brother Ye, I think this guy is just hurting people by sneak attacks, why don't you and I form a formation on our backs, in this way, no matter how fast he is, he can't easily hurt us." ”
"Okay!" Chu Ping and Ye Feng stood back to back, each holding a sword and entering a defensive state. Seeing that the two of them were in such a formation, Shangguan Cheng really couldn't find a chance to start, but he kept casting ghost shadows to move quickly, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack the two.
Chu Ping held his sword on guard, waiting for the opportunity to find a chance to kill Shangguan Cheng, "Ting, Ting", suddenly heard a faint sound of bowstrings, and knew that this was someone casting a dark arrow on him behind his back, and when the arrow was near, he quickly turned away with the back of his sword, and swung a sword towards the height of the cave, only to hear a scream of "ahhhh Chu Ping reminded Ye Feng softly: "Brother Ye, be careful from the heights, someone is casting a dark arrow at us!"
After hearing this, Ye Feng shouted angrily: "Shangguan Cheng, I can't imagine that you, the ghost sect, from top to bottom, are full of incompetent people who shrink their heads and brains, and they will only rely on some unsightly means to plot and hurt people, it's really shameless!" Ye Feng was still unwilling to give up, but whenever he saw a figure shaking, he slashed with his knife and slashed over, and there were screams again and again, and there were many ghost cultists, who died under his knife in an instant, Shangguan Cheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw this, taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Ping swung a sword at him, and a cold sword qi hit Shangguan Cheng directly, "Oops", it just hurt Shangguan Cheng's left arm, Shangguan Cheng couldn't help but stumble, and almost fell backwards. The opportunity was rare, Chu Ping jumped in front of Shangguan Cheng, concentrated all his energy, and used a "ten thousand swords to one" style to besiege Shangguan Cheng, Shangguan Cheng still wanted to cast a ghost shadow shift, but saw that there were sword shadows in all directions, how could he use it, and was about to run away, but he saw that Ye Feng had already jumped above to block his way, at this moment, Shangguan Cheng really had no way to go to the sky, no door to enter the ground, and he was crying bitterly! Could it be that I, Shangguancheng, am I really going to die today under the hands of these two boys? God is unfair!" Ye Feng concentrated his strength and gave him an evil eagle to pounce on, Chu Ping also gathered his internal strength and struck at Shangguan Cheng so hard, "Ahhhhh
The Ghost Sect members were so shocked to see that their Shangguan Sect Master had been killed, and no one dared to stay here for a long time, "clanging", they all dropped the guys in their hands, and ran straight towards the cave, preparing to escape from this place. Chu Ping and Ye Feng, who were willing to let them go, quickly rushed forward, like cutting melons and vegetables, "clicking", and killed these thieves in three or two clicks.
After finishing everything here, the two of them were ready to open the stone gate and leave here, how could they have been looking for a long time, but they could not find the mechanism to open the stone door, Ye Feng concentrated all his strength on slashing the stone gate, but it was ineffective, he was angry and annoyed in his heart, he glared at the tiger, and shouted angrily: "Damn! I can't imagine that this broken door is so strong, no matter how hard I try, but I can't cut it open at all, and this ghost place, except for this stone gate, there is no other way out, how is this good?"
"Ahem!" Chu Ping said angrily: "It's all because the two of us are too impatient, and in a fit of rage, we actually killed all the people, now it's okay, trap ourselves here, right? I really don't know how to get out!"
"Ahem!" Ye Feng had no choice but to bury his head and sigh!
I don't know how Chu Ping and Ye Feng should leave the Ghost Palace?
