Chapter 21: The Beginning of the War
On the mountain road, a horse galloped from the south, and the man on the horse was a long-faced man, his face was frightened, and he turned his head from time to time to look into the distance. Behind him, dozens of fast horses were in hot pursuit, the yellow dust was loud, and the sound of hooves shook the sky.
Down a slope, turn a corner, and suddenly fly out of the dense forest in the oblique thorn, blocking the center of the road. Yu Ren immediately held a gun, and his face was solemn.
The long-faced man lifted the reins, drew a knife in his hand, and said with a crazy face: "The surname is Yu, Lin and you are fighting!"
Yu Ren raised his spear to catch up, and the spear in his hand stabbed obliquely, and in only ten rounds, he knocked the long-faced man off the horse, tied it with a rope, and threw it to the pursuers who arrived.
Yu Ren looked up at the sky and muttered: "Second brother, third brother, the platoon gang has been caught, the eldest brother must kill a few more platoon gang cubs to pay tribute to your soul in the sky." ”
On the top of Jiuli Mountain, in the Juyi Hall, the five elders of the Platoon Gang, more than 20 hall masters gathered here, and many people whispered.
"The gang leader issued a lone wolf order, summoning me and others to come to the general gang, I don't know what is important?"
"What else can I do? Those bastards have been getting more and more arrogant recently, and they don't even take my lone wolf gang in their eyes, and it is estimated that the gang leader can't stand it anymore, and he wants to lead everyone to **** hard!"
"Damn, Lao Tzu fought with them the day before yesterday, killing and injuring many brothers, the gang mainly ordered to fight, and I rushed to be the first!"
......
The speakers are all hall masters from all over the country, and recently the gang has been aggressive, frequently invading their territory, and each hall has suffered varying degrees of losses.
Long Yan and the other five elders sat upright on their chairs and didn't say a word.
Suddenly, a figure in a black robe and a mask walked out of the back hall, and sat down in the first seat.
The elders and hall masters stood up and saluted at the same time, and said loudly, "Welcome to the helper." ”
The black-robed man stretched out his hand and lifted it falsely, "Sit." After everyone sat down, he slowly spoke, "This time, I just want to ask the brothers one question: Do you dare to start an all-out war with the platoon gang?"
Without waiting for the hall masters to speak, the third elder Wei Peizhi stood up with a frown, clenched his fists and said: "Gang master, compared to the platoon gang, my lone wolf gang is still a little behind in strength, and I am afraid of a full-scale war with it, I am afraid of disadvantage." ”
A small half of the hall masters also had a look of hesitation, they knew very well that the platoon gang was powerful, and if a full-scale war started, the lone wolf gang had little chance of winning.
The black-robed man smiled and said, "People live a breath, the platoon gang is now riding on our heads, if we don't fight back, where is the power of my lone wolf gang?
The fifth elder Gu Yuanpeng said: "The helper's words are bad, as the so-called stay in the green mountains, I am not afraid of no firewood, and I can earn it again if I have no help and face, I think we should be a little more tolerant and develop better secretly." ”
The black-robed man looked at Long Yan and Meng Jian, "What do you two elders think?"
Long Yan said lightly: "If people don't offend me, I won't offend people, I will do what the gang does." ”
Meng Jian said, "I support the Great Elder's point of view. ”
The faces of the third elder Wei Peizhi and the fifth elder Gu Yuanpeng were a little ugly, but they didn't expect that Long Yan and Meng Jian would support the war, and they immediately set their eyes on the medicine old monster.
The black-robed man laughed and said, "This gang leader has another good news to tell you, a few days ago, Elder Yao had broken through to the ninth layer and stepped into the ranks of first-class masters. ”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, only Long Yan was quite calm, after fighting with the medicine old monster that day, he had this guess.
Wei Peizhi clenched his fist at the medicine elder monster and asked, "Elder Yao, are you in favor of starting a war?"
The medicine old monster pondered for a moment and said: "Elder Wei, you are an elder of law enforcement, you should know about the incident of the apprentice in distress a few days ago, the platoon gang has extended its tentacles to the young wolf village, if it is delayed again, I am afraid that the other party will penetrate deeper, and then it will be more difficult for us to deal with it." ”
At this time, Gu Yuanpeng said: "Since Elder Yao's strength has greatly improved, then my lone wolf gang really has nothing to fear, and I also agree with the gang leader's words to fight to the death with the platoon gang!"
Seeing this, even if Wei Peizhi was unwilling in his heart, he could only respond verbally.
The five elders agreed, how could the hall master have any reason to object, the medicine old monster became a first-class master, giving everyone great confidence, but they were all excited and inexplicable, looking forward to a big fight.
Three days later, at midnight, the Great Elder Long Yan of the Lone Wolf Gang and the Four Elders Yao Lao Wei led ten hall masters and two hundred gangs to attack the platoon gang, and even the lower platoon gang had five halls, killing hundreds of people, returning with a great victory, and celebrating together.
Qiu Chen, the leader of the Platoon Gang, was furious, and personally led eleven eleven elders, thirty hall masters, and seven hundred gang members to Jiuli Mountain, wanting to annihilate the Lone Wolf Gang in one fell swoop.
Mu Zijing, the leader of the Lone Wolf Gang, had already prepared, on the one hand, he contracted his forces to fortify in Jiuli Mountain, and on the other hand, he secretly led the five elders to set up an ambush in the "Eagle Flying Gorge", a natural danger that the platoon gang must pass through, and caught them off guard.
In this battle, the medicine old monster shined, one person killed three elders of the platoon gang, seriously injured two, and the hall master who died in his hands was no less than ten, and the power of the first-class master was undoubtedly revealed.
The six of them took advantage of the situation and ran, taking advantage of a few clever traps arranged in advance to retreat. Qiu Chen was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
After that, the five elders took turns to lead the team of masters to constantly harass and attack the platoon gang, although they did not kill many people, but they greatly damaged the morale of the platoon gang.
When Qiu Chen and his entourage finally arrived at Jiuli Mountain, Mu Zijing was not afraid and led the crowd to fight with them in seven battles, with casualties on both sides.
After a stalemate for half a month, Yao Lao Monster and Long Yan waited for the opportunity to kill the two elders of the Platoon Gang again, so far, there are only six eleven elders left in the Platoon Gang, and one of them is still seriously injured, and in terms of high-end combat power, they are at a disadvantage.
Governor Qiu Chen could not do anything and ordered a retreat. Mu Zijing took advantage of the victory to pursue and beheaded a lot.
The first head-to-head confrontation between the Lone Wolf Gang and the Platoon Gang ended in a big victory for the former.
However, after all, the Pai Gang Xiong has dominated Yulin County for many years, and has a profound background, after Qiu Chen went back, he gathered many masters and fought back several times with absolute numerical superiority, causing heavy losses to the Lone Wolf Gang.
In those few encounters, the medicine old monster would face the sacrificial siege of at least five platoon gang elders each time, and even though his skills were extraordinary, he was often in danger.
It was precisely because the medicine old monster dragged so many platoon gang elders that the lone wolf gang would not be defeated and retreated, and barely blocked the platoon gang's offensive.
The two sides fought to this point, no one could help anyone, so they fought to consume, today you destroy a hall of me, tomorrow I will end you a stronghold, you come and go, very tragic.
Zhao Ziming also participated in several battles and killed many low-level existences of the platoon gang, so he was also rewarded with a high-level boxing technique.
Speaking of which, he has a top-level boxing technique such as Baji Boxing, but because his strength is too weak, he is afraid of being targeted by the enemies of the medicine monster, so he does not dare to use it openly, and he is helpless.
Seeing that he had undergone proper training and that the war between the two gangs had eased slightly, the medicine boss took him back to the medicine hall and asked him to practice martial arts well, and at the same time learn pharmacology and medical skills to help treat the wounded.
In addition to the medicine monster, the Lone Wolf Gang originally had three deacons with excellent medical skills, but two of them died unexpectedly in the firefight.
As a result, the medical strength in the gang was suddenly stretched, and the medicine old monster was busy containing the masters of the platoon gang, and he lacked skills, so he had to rush the ducks to the shelves, so that Zhao Ziming could learn and sell them now, and he was temporarily in battle.
Fortunately, Zhao Ziming has a bright mind, a strong memory, and a good writing foundation, so he learns very quickly, and in two months, his medical skills have been slightly successful, and he is comparable to the only remaining deacon.
The medicine old monster was very happy about this, and felt that there was a successor, so in his spare time, he gave detailed guidance on medical skills, and taught each other, Zhao Ziming's medical skills naturally improved by leaps and bounds, and he didn't know how many brothers of the Lone Wolf Gang he saved, and he was given the strange title of "Little Medicine Elder" by the gang.
Because of his great contribution, Mu Zijing gave him the position of deacon, and granted him the right to enter and exit the arsenal at any time, and let him choose all the martial arts secrets in the gang to practice, such honors, he was the only one in the Lone Wolf Gang.
However, Zhao Ziming knew the truth of being greedy and chewing too much, so he only chose a sword technique and a light skill, and never went to the arsenal again, which made the medicine old monster nod and praise.
In September, the order belongs to three autumns, the sun is shining, and the maple leaves are red.
In the innermost courtyard of the medicine hall, Zhao Ziming sat on the ground with his eyes closed, and the sunlight shone on him, as if he was dressed in a layer of gold, adding a sense of solemnity.
Suddenly, his body trembled slightly, he let out a long breath, and slowly opened his eyes.
"Five floors. Feeling the internal force flowing in the meridians, Zhao Ziming grinned.
After going up the mountain, because the medicine old monster was running outside, this small courtyard became Zhao Ziming's private domain, and he could finally use the nameless exercise's anti-heaven supernatural power - with the help of the power of the sun to speed up his cultivation.
Although it took him a lot of time to study medicine and save people in the past few months, his cultivation speed was thirty percent faster when he practiced under the scorching sun, and three months ago he cleared the ice jade silkworm of cold poison again, and his internal strength increased significantly, so the day he broke through to the fifth layer was two months earlier than he expected.
The cultivation progress of Bajiquan is not under the internal force, Zhao Ziming's talent in this way is surprisingly good, and now according to his physical strength and boxing attainments, Zhao Ziming estimates that even if he is a third-rate master of the sixth layer, he can easily defeat him.
"Second aunt, I don't know how much you have grown over the years?" Zhao Ziming looked at the sky, his hands slowly clenched, and the thoughts in his mind fluctuated.
More than a year ago, he was still struggling with how to get out of the control of his second aunt, but now, he has self-confidence, even if he loses to Long Liying, he can retreat safely!
Besides, with the speed of his progress, it is only a matter of time before his strength catches up with or even surpasses the second aunt.
"Father, mother, within two years, the child will definitely use Long Liying's blood to commemorate you!" Zhao Ziming raised his palm and slapped it on the wall, the stone powder fell, and a shallow palm print emerged.
