Chapter 4: The Man in the Field

Against others, the opportunity is fleeting

I saw a man with a red horse and hat galloping forward, holding a halberd diagonally at his side, the halberd thorn pointing downward, and the sound of horses' hooves was regular and very dull.

Zhang Dawen on the other side of the team saw this situation, and his face was solemn.

He knew that the regular sound of horses' hooves indicated that the person was experienced, and the dull sound of horses' hooves showed that the man's halberd was of extraordinary weight.

So Zhang Dawen was more focused, his eyes narrowed slightly. Focus on the next hat man's halberd.

He knew that with such a giant halberd, there was no chance of winning with it, and the only way to win was the halberd of the man in the hat.

Although Zhang Dawen thought a lot, he thought quickly, and he had already grasped the key to this confrontation in an instant.

And in the field, within a breath, the man in the hat collided with the two of them.

Zhang Dawen's eyes were fixed on the hand of the man holding the halberd, he must see the moment when the man came out of the halberd, otherwise Zhang Dawen would lose the next battle between the two.

I saw that the man in the hat raised the tip of the halberd at the moment of the confrontation, and pressed the tip of the halberd again in the next moment.

The man in the hat passed between the two, and then their horses stopped, and then the two landed on their horses.

This lift and press are two lives.

And Zhang Dawen, who was in the rear, turned pale in an instant.

Zhang Dawen didn't see the man's move clearly, but he saw the man's method clearly: killing with a giant halberd, not sweeping, not slashing, not straight stabbing, but obliquely. Zhang Dawen didn't use a halberd, but he knew that a person who was not proficient in sweeping and splitting straight stabs would not be able to do such an easy and smooth diagonal pick.

Behind Zhang Dawen, Zhang Dawu didn't say a word, his expression was solemn, for fear of disturbing his eldest brother to observe the situation, so he didn't say anything. When he saw this scene, Zhang Dawu's expression changed slightly, and he clenched the reins of the horse, and his other hand was already on the long knife.

Zhang Dawu is not as good as Zhang Dawen, so he didn't see how much higher the strength of the hat man was than them, he naively thought that as long as the two brothers joined forces, they would be able to fight.

But Zhang Dawen knew that the man in front of him was a real martial arts master.

"Your Excellency stops. Zhang Dawen let go of the handle of the knife held in his right hand, and his face was gloomy.

"Your Excellency, don't go any further, we promise you money. ”

"If Your Excellency thinks that it is less, I can still send someone to get it, just ask Your Excellency to ...... Spare human lives. A bitter voice came from the thin man's mouth. Helpless, and sad.

He knew that when he opened his mouth, the Zhang family would no longer be the Zhang family.

And the man in the hat spoke, his voice strangely hoarse. Because the man's voice is so ugly, as if his throat has been torn apart.

"I have no enmity with you. ”

Then he took off his hat and threw it on the ground from his horse.

I saw a shocking scar on the man's face, from the top of his left eye to the back of his right ear.

The man in the hat then lifted the halberd, and the tip of the halberd pointed to the carriage. A hoarse voice slowly came out of the man's mouth:

"The man I'm looking for, in the carriage. ”

And the carriage convoy, among the first carriages.

There were two young men and a young woman sitting in the car. The two men were handsome, wearing a purple crown and a green hosta, with a smile on their faces.

The other is ordinary-looking, with short hair so he doesn't tie his hair, and he always has a smile on his face. Both of them have extraordinary temperaments, but their temperaments are very different. The man with the purple crown is more like a student who reads poetry and books, and the man who does not tie his hair is like a wanderer who goes out on a long journey.

And the woman in the carriage across the aisle from the two young men, black hair like ink, tall figure, cold expression, the woman closed her eyes, the corners of her mouth drooped slightly, she just sat like this, ignoring the two people in front of her, if it wasn't for the situation, she didn't want to go with these two people at all, in her opinion, these two people in terms of status and status, they were not worthy of sitting in the same carriage with her, so when the woman was in this carriage, her face was not very good-looking.

Along the way, the three of them rarely spoke, but from time to time the short-haired man remembered something he thought of what he thought was funny, and he would say it, and then he couldn't stop having fun. At this time, the handsome man just smiled on the side, did not answer, and did not interrupt.

When the carriage stopped, the three of them did not react, and when they heard that someone had robbed the road, only the woman frowned, the purple-crowned man closed his eyes, and the short-haired man yawned and ignored it.

When he heard that someone had fallen from his horse and Zhang Dawen began to beg for mercy, the purple-crowned man opened his eyes, but his smile remained unchanged. The short-haired man still didn't move

When he finally heard that he was looking for someone in the carriage, the short-haired man smiled.

"Yo, do you hear me, this guy is still coming for us. The short-haired young man said with a grin, and as he spoke, he plucked his ears and reclined on the seat in the carriage, which was spacious, and the short-haired young man had never used a normal sitting position all the way. He didn't seem to realize the gravity of the situation outside the carriage. Said casually:

"What are the two buddies who take the lead doing, I heard that they are still some kind of bullshit little grandmasters, and now they can't even stop a puppet, let's raise a dog to bark twice, and now this waste has not even fought and actually started begging for mercy, which is too embarrassing. After saying that, he rubbed his fingers on his ears, but he was still reclining, and he didn't look like he was about to get up. It's as if it had never been his business.

Seeing this, the handsome young man smiled: "Then I'll go out and have a look." With that, he gently pulled the curtain and stepped out of the carriage.

The posture of the short-haired young man in the carriage remained unchanged, and his face was still smiling.

—————————————————————————

Outside the carriage, in the field.

Zhang Dawen was stunned after the halberd-wielding man said those words, so why did Zhang Dawen stay in place?

Perhaps he was hesitating whether to leave his escort behind, or was he making up his mind to protect the people in the carriage to the death?

Unfortunately, none of them are, and it can even be said that the opposite is true. Because in the face of the question of whether to risk his life in order to save people, Zhang Dawen didn't have to choose at all. Regarding this matter, Zhang Dawen didn't even hesitate for a moment. For them, no matter how much money there is, it doesn't matter if they die. That's why they've been on the road for so many years and have the last laugh. Every time danger occurs, they always put their lives first.

But why did Zhang Dawen hesitate? Why was Zhang Dawen stunned when he said that the man wanted to let them go?

Because he is Zhang Dawen.

Zhang Dawen is cautious, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is afraid of death. But a martial artist can't get to this point by being cautious alone, so while Zhang Dawen is cautious and afraid of death, he is still very smart. Every time he is in danger, the first thing Zhang Dawen does is to protect himself, but if he is very sure of his life, Zhang Dawen dares to fight.

So the reason why Zhang Dawen was stunned at this time was that he was thinking, thinking about the loopholes in the man's words!

At the beginning, when he judged that the strength of the halberd bearer was more than a few realms higher than his own, Zhang Dawen gave up resistance, because what he wanted to save in the first place was his own life. So he directly admits defeat, whether it is to take the money to eliminate the disaster, or to sell the people in the carriage, as long as it can increase the possibility of survival, he can do it.

But Zhang Dawen feels that there is a suspicion in this:

The halberd-wielding man appeared out of thin air, and his strength was still extremely strong, and he instantly killed two of his own masters in one look. It stands to reason that he still has many helpers under him, and it only takes a moment for a person with this kind of strength to finish off himself and then find the people in the car, so why doesn't the other party solve himself easily and then go to the so-called people in the carriage? Wouldn't it be effortless and risk-free to solve himself and then find the cash cow behind him?

So Zhang Dawen feels unreasonable, because for so many years, he has never done so much, for him, it is reasonable to kill more people and say less words.

From beginning to end, Zhang Dawen never thought of the word "kindness", because he had never encountered it, and he never had one.

So, he immediately made another judgment, a very bold judgment, as long as this judgment is correct, this escort will sit on the ground and raise a sky-high price.

And at this price, there may be a chance to let yourself embark on the path of cultivation. 、

He judged that the man with the halberd was bluffing. He judged that the man in the hat used a secret method to pretend to kill the two easily, and he judged that the man would have no means to kill himself next. Because if there is, why should the man let himself go?

Zhang Dawen is such a person, a bold person who is afraid of death.

And when he made this judgment, his own body had already acted. But instead of immediately slashing the bluffing person in front of him, he slashed it head-on.

I saw Zhang Dawen bowing his head and clenching his fists, because he was bowing, no one could see that his eyes became cold in an instant. I only heard him say in a deep voice: "Thank you for your grace not to kill, if you have the opportunity, you will definitely ...... in the next place."

Before the words fell, I saw Zhang Dawen suddenly let go of his hands, and at the same time, two steel needles, one green and one black, flew out of the sleeves of his two arms, one green and one black, the thickness of the steel needles and chopsticks, and more than three inches long. After the steel needle came out of the sleeve, it pointed directly at the face door of the man holding the halberd, and the black needle was in front of the green needle in the back, and almost at the same time, the two steel needles hit the face door of the man holding the halberd.

Seamless

Even if Zhang Dawen judged that the halberd-wielding man was bluffing, he was still extremely cautious. first used words to divert the attention of the hat man, and then released a hidden weapon from his sleeve, and there was more than one hidden weapon flying out of his sleeve. On top of the cyan steel needle, it is highly poisonous.

Only such a Zhang Dawen can get to today's position.

There are all kinds of things in the world, and there are thousands of people in the world.

Zhang Dawen is undoubtedly an excellent person, but he is not the only excellent person.

He made countless judgments in his life, only wrong once, and finally this time.

The scene changed too quickly, Zhang Dawu, as the closest person to the battle, did not react to what happened, he only heard his eldest brother admit defeat, and then saw the man in the hat take off the hat, and then heard the man in the hat ask for someone, and then saw his eldest brother bow his head and submit to the softness, and then saw two beams of white light hit the face of the man in the hat.

"Ding", "Ding", two sounds came out, and after that, Zhang Dawu saw Zhang Dawen's head fly out, and before he made any action, the man immediately slapped him with a halberd, and Zhang Dawu fell off the horse, dying.

Since then, the two brothers have disappeared from the rivers and lakes so easily.

Why did Zhang Dawen make a mistake in judgment? Zhang Dawen didn't think about it until the moment before he died. But is this really that hard? No, on the contrary, the answer to this question is very simple:

Because the hat man is not bad, but also a very strong and very strong person, he let Zhang Dawen go, just because he really wanted to let Zhang Dawen go.

And all this, since the handsome young man stepped out of the carriage, he has seen it. It stands to reason that a young man who seems to have no experience in the world should be alarmed when he sees such a scene. If the young man is tougher, he should also be silent.

But you shouldn't, you shouldn't smile in front of young people, dead people.

Zhang Dawen's dropped head fell at the young man's feet, but the young man didn't react at all: he just smiled.

The voice that usually makes people feel like a spring breeze now seems to be indescribably weird, and the voice comes out of the young man's mouth:

"Is there anything wrong with Your Excellency?" the young man was still smiling, and his voice felt approachable and unobtrusive.

But the man with the halberd's eyes changed.

Then the man with the halberd raised the halberd high, and with a wave of it, the people around him began to charge. The people of the Zhang family in the carriage convoy were gone, and the hearts of the people were already in turmoil, and when they saw the wolf-like charge of these hundreds of people, their eyes were full of despair. But then the man who got out of the carriage spoke, and said something very abrupt and out of place:

"Good time, just in time, I'm a little hungry. He was still smiling and his voice was soft.

But people who have more than ordinary people perceive can feel that the man's momentum has changed, and he has become as if he is no longer human.
