Chapter 56: In the Valley of the Lost Fox (I)
Zhang Kite, the commander of the hundred horses, saw Liu Tugou's token and sneered: "Ghost tricks, you can't see the sun!"
He didn't see the scene of Liu Tugou almost retreating from the two grandmasters, so he didn't take the second master too seriously.
also blame Liu Tugou himself, the aura of the whole body is used to carve the heart knife and the three-style forging body with the sick tiger, and when necessary, you can raise your head and swallow the sky, which is in the eyes of outsiders, but the cultivation of the peak of the foundation, even if you hide the breath, you can just practice the qi realm.
As a result, Shen Dagongzi and Nan Tianzhu, who were in the realm of Qi cultivation, each suffered a clap in vain, and the two clumsy grandmasters Gao Ziyu and the young man who wiped their foreheads fell short.
"Fence it off!"
Zhang Yuan suddenly gave an order, and the one hundred cloud cavalry guards who had already surrounded the scene immediately raised their swords and raised their guns and aimed them at everyone in the field.
Everyone who was surrounded was shocked, and Chen Hongyu, who had just spoken calmly, couldn't help but change color, and said in his heart: "It's going to be bad!"
Since Liu Tugou has indicated his "identity", he naturally wants to stand up, he frowned and said, "Mr. Zhang Qi, what does this mean?"
Zhang Yuan's eyes were fierce, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't recognize any prison tokens, what you said is too bizarre, and there is no circumstantial evidence, and it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false." Now all of them will be taken into custody and handed over to the Yunqi Captain for decision!"
This situation is really full of twists and turns, Liu Tugou is injured, and he has to protect Chen Hongyu, so he is silent at the moment, ready to look at the limelight first.
Seeing that the "deputy envoy" was silent, Zhang Yuan said sarcastically: "The people in the edict and prison really know the current affairs. ”
He waved his spear and ordered: "The whole army dismounts, leave a piece to watch the horses, and the rest follow me into the valley to arrest the fugitives, and when the whole battalion of the cloud cavalry guard arrives, they will be handed over to the captain!"
This unreasonable order was carried out to the letter, and the prison guards and the surviving prisoners were forced by swords and guns to slowly march towards the Lost Fox Valley.
Chen Hongyu secretly passed a complicated look to Liu Tugou, and said in a low voice: "The military department actually came to intervene." ”
The second master suddenly realized that the situation was really getting more and more chaotic, and the truth that attracted all parties was probably in this Lost Fox Valley.
The vegetation in the valley is extremely vigorous, and the vegetation is dense, and it is difficult to see far away. At the beginning, there is still a path to be found, and when you go deeper, you need to overcome obstacles.
The prison guards, who were allowed to keep their swords, were unlucky, and walked at the front of the line under the drive of the cloud cavalry guards, responsible for opening the way.
It's just that the speed is too slow, unless there is no way out of this valley, and then the mountain is searched with a large army, it will definitely not be able to find the five people who rushed into the valley first.
Zhang Yuan, the commander of the hundred horses, was not in a hurry at all, except for scattering ten scouts into the mountains and forests, and let the team move forward step by step.
This attitude further confirmed Chen Hongyu's speculation.
Liu Tugou can already be sure that he is caught in a huge whirlpool involving the interests of several forces, and he will be crushed if he is not careful.
In the end, he was still severely calculated by Wei Da, but I am afraid that he didn't even expect that the situation would be chaotic to such an extent.
Fortunately, for Liu Tugou, there is no need to bother to distinguish which forces are interfering, and there is no need to pay attention to who is who.
If you want to live, you can kill everyone!
Time passed slowly, and this walk was more than three hours, until night fell as scheduled.
Torches were lit, but the team did not stop.
None of the ten scouts returned, and the face of the hundred horsemen Zhang Kite became more and more ugly.
Suddenly a soldier at the front of the line stopped, his arm raised in the air. By the light of the torches, one could clearly see what he was holding in his hands, which was clearly an intact pair of handcuffs. There was still dark red blood on the handcuffs.
Shen Dagongzi is really not as simple as it seems.
Finally found the clues, and everyone who had been trekking in the mountains and forests for an afternoon couldn't help but feel refreshed.
Zhang Yuan, the commander of the hundred cavalry, immediately ordered to stop the repair, and at the same time scattered dozens of soldiers around to search for the traces of the thieves.
In less than a quarter of an hour, reports were made that the bodies of three scouts had been found in different locations, either severed with sharp weapons or torn apart with their bare hands, and the death was horrific, and it was clear that the perpetrators were two well-trained masters.
Seeing this, Liu Tugou secretly thought in his heart, such a murderous and efficient killing was obviously the handiwork of Gao Ziyu and the young man who wiped his forehead. As for the handcuffs, it is unknown whether they were thrown at random by Shen Dagongzi or a trap deliberately set by them. If it is the latter, then Shen Dagongzi is obviously a yellow bird mixed in the prisoner like the second master. So what is the relationship between him and Gao Ziyu?
Not to mention that the second master was thinking nonsense on the side, the expression of Zhang Yuan, the commander of the hundred horses, became solemn, he only had the cultivation in the early stage of qi training, and he could lead a guard and a thousand people in the local army, and he could only be a small flag in the elite forbidden army with a cloud of masters, even if he relied on horsepower, he could only match the middle stage of qi training, but now two fierce and ruthless masters suddenly popped up, which was really tricky.
He groaned slightly, and ordered the soldiers to be gathered, and the prisoners were responsible for carrying the corpses of the dead scouts, and the whole team was not allowed to rest and continued to advance.
At this time, including Chen Hongyu, there were only nine prisoners who were lucky enough to survive the chaotic battle.
In order to facilitate the carrying of the corpses, the eight young and strong prisoners were shackled from their hands, but the order to carry the corpses was unsurprisingly met with silent resistance from them.
The nine men stood in place, their eyes meeting each other, and finally they all looked at one of them, a strong man with some authority.
The strong man looked at Liu Tugou and asked, "My lord, what do you say?"
There was a hint of compassion in Liu Tugou's indifferent eyes, and he looked at Dahan as if he were looking at the animals waiting to be slaughtered in a slaughterhouse.
Zhang Kite jumped behind the strong man, and stabbed the strong man without hesitation, stabbing the strong man who was caught off guard.
He kicked the strong man in the back, kicked the dead man to the ground, who had no strength to scream, and swung his knife back, slashing a frightened head.
"The scum is the scum, what a glory it is to protect the blood of the martyrs, you still dare to hesitate, it's not a pity to die!"
His bloodthirsty gaze swept towards the rest of the prisoners, and the murderous intent was palpable.
Forced by Zhang Yuan's eyes, the remaining prisoners no longer dared to disobey, and crawled to the side of the corpse with a rolling belt, and carefully picked it up, either carrying or hugging it, as if it were a treasure.
The team slowly moved forward again, and Liu Tugou keenly felt that there was a little more hostility and resentment in the eyes of several prisoners looking at him, as if those humiliation and death were brought to them by the soft "deputy envoy" in front of them.
Chen Hongyu, who walked with him, said in a low voice: "People's hearts are like this, you don't have to take it to heart. ”
Liu Tugou grinned, there was still a faint bloody breath between his lips and teeth, and he also said in a low voice: "The situation is stronger than people, I can't blame them." Old man Chen, if the second master leaves a cruel sentence at this moment and says what will happen in the future, I'm afraid that even if you don't say it, you will definitely laugh at the second master in your heart, yes or no?"
Chen Hongyu couldn't help but glance at Liu Tugou when he heard this, and responded: "Aren't all the people who are strong and introverted like this? ”
The curvature of the corners of Liu Tugou's mouth is getting bigger and bigger, this old man Chen, when is it, what are you still talking about, is it insinuating that the second master is obviously a deputy envoy, and he still wants to play with him in the prison of old man Chen......
"That deputy envoy of Rausch, stand down for Ben!"
Liu Tugou stopped and turned around, and saw Zhang Yuan kicking away a prisoner beside him, striding over, and said as he walked: "I heard that you are good, don't hide aside and whisper to an old man, explore the way in front of your head!"
Liu Tugou shrugged, spread his hands and said, "Please also ask Master Qi to give me a knife, it's difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, isn't it?"
Zhang Yuan snorted, snatched the long knife from the hand of one of the prison guards, flipped his wrist, and threw it over.
