Chapter 135: Unpredictable
Everyone in the Water Ghost Gate is now a soldier, and they are all frightened, but Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu, who have already arrived at the edge of Taihu Lake, still don't know it, how can they know that the current Water Ghost Gate has regarded the person who wrote the note as their own. After the death of the head Zhuge Qing www.biquge.info this time the blood debt was counted on Ye Cheng's head.
Although Taihu Lake is big, the water ghost gate is not difficult to find, how can the fishermen on the edge of Taihu Lake not know this village that often oppresses them, so Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu knew the direction as soon as they inquired.
At this time, Song Xi locked himself in a hut alone, his heart fluttered and beat hard, he trembled with his hands and took off a pair of ink landscape paintings on the wall, this is a picture of Liu Guandao's summer consumption, although Zhuge Qing is not a person who knows how to paint, but often vassals and elegance, and bought this painting at any cost, but at this time the things hidden behind this painting are a hundred times more valuable than this painting.
In a dark compartment in the wall, Song Xi carefully pulled out a baggage, and then slowly opened it, and a bow and arrow with a different kind of thing was placed inside.
Wuhou crossbow!
It turned out that the Wuhou crossbow that Zhuge Qing carried with him was just a fake, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, he created the illusion that he regarded the Wuhou crossbow as if he was his life and never left his body, so he always carried a fake Wuhou crossbow, whether it was workmanship or appearance, it can be fake, but when it is used, it will be found that this fake crossbow can not send out more than a dozen arrows at a time, and its power is just an ordinary bow and arrow.
Zhuge Qing's original plan was exquisite, once the enemy forced him to hand over the Wuhou crossbow as a last resort, he would hand over this to save his life, no one would suspect that the Wuhou crossbow was a fake, and when he really pressed the mechanism to find out, he could already escape.
But people are not as good as heaven, Zhuge Qing never dreamed that the person who snatched the Wuhou crossbow did not give Zhuge Qing a chance to bargain at all, he had already died in Huangquan before he could react, and the fake Wuhou crossbow was snatched away like this.
"They must have known that the Wuhou crossbow was fake, this is what I've been worried about these days, and now it's still happening, what should I do?" Song Xi muttered to himself.
He stroked the Wuhou crossbow, this was the treasure he dreamed of, looking at this room where Zhuge Qing had stayed before, this was the position he dreamed of, and now he had achieved it, but let him give up?
People will always be consumed by profit, let alone Song Xi.
The people he sent out had already arrived at Qi Shengtian and Hailong Village, Qi Shengtian was packing up his things in the mansion, he didn't expect Song Xi's people to come to pick them up so soon, of course he was overjoyed, although the number was not large, and there were some discrepancies with the dozens of people he expected to escort him, but how could the down-and-out Qi Shengtian dare to complain, hurriedly packed up his things and set off with his wife and three concubines and a few personal servants.
Hailongzhai also received a handwritten letter from Song Raid, although the two gangs did not get along, but seeing that the words in Song Raid's book were very sincere, and it also vaguely mentioned the idea of redividing the sphere of influence, Hailongzhai had long wanted to set foot in the Taihu Lake area, Liu Jin naturally couldn't help but be tempted after reading it, but he was afraid that he would be controlled by others in the Water Ghost Gate, so he personally ordered eighty disciples in the village to go with him, thinking in his heart that even if he didn't agree with him at that time, he would have a helper.
Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu had already hidden not far from the Water Ghost Gate General Village at this time, Ye Cheng said in a low voice: "It seems that this time we are going to pretend to be night walkers again, we have never been to this village, the terrain is not familiar is very troublesome, it is more appropriate to go in later, Zhao Dage, what do you think?"
Zhao Xuanwu touched the steel knife behind him, nodded and said, "Brother is right, let's wait until night to go in and find out." ”
But Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu didn't wait until the evening to regret their decision, and in the evening, they were surprised to see that people had entered the Water Ghost Gate General Village one after another, among which there were people from Qi Shengtian and Hailong Village.
Ye Chengfei explained: "What's wrong today? They just broke up last night, and they broke up unhappily, why did they reunite here today?"
Zhao Xuanwu muttered: "Could it be that there is some reason for this, it seems that we will go in tonight and add a bit of risk." ”
Ye Cheng looked at Zongzhai with his eyes, paid attention to the people who came and went, and said to Zhao Xuanwu in a low voice: "Brother Zhao, this matter was originally to find clues to Wuhou's crossbow, so that in exchange for letting Senior Luo inform the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen and Wei Chong, these things are all my Ye Cheng's business, and have nothing to do with Brother Zhao, if the matter is easy, I dare to ask Brother Zhao to go, now I see that this situation is already very dangerous, and I also ask Brother Zhao to give me a response outside, and I Ye Cheng can go in by myself." ”
Zhao Xuanwu shook his head and smiled: "Brother, what kind of person do you grasp Zhao Xuanwu as, when you are optimistic, does that little monk have anything to do with you? Does the Smelling Fragrance Sect Master have anything to do with you? You can stand up so chivalrous and brave at a young age, I, Zhao Xuanwu, have lived many years better than you, will I retreat from the battle? Since it is your brother's business, I Zhao Xuanwu don't know, since I know, I have no reason to stand by!"
Ye Cheng was moved in his heart, knowing that if a bold person like Zhao Xuanwu persuaded him again, he would look down on him, so he smiled and stopped talking.
At this time, Song Raid had already received a report, Qi Shengtian and Liu Jin's people had arrived in Dazhai, Song Raid stared at the Wuhou crossbow, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Baby, baby, I don't know how many lives will be killed or injured tonight for you, this is also a matter of no choice, but as long as you are here, I will feel at ease." ”
After Song Xi stepped out of the hut, the gloomy expression on his face was gone, replaced by a bright smile, and the terrifying thing about people is that you never know what he was really thinking in his heart.
The banquet that night was very grand, which even Qi Shengtian and Liu Jin didn't expect, although the two had a quarrel last night, but now on the territory of the Water Ghost Gate, the two of them were inconvenient, sitting on both sides of Song Xian, and they really couldn't hide from the time before they said a perfunctory sentence, which was considered a conversation.
Song Xi deliberately prolonged the banquet, his heart was like the moon in the night, the deeper the night, the higher the hanging, his apprehension was not on his face, but on his constantly shaking legs.
The person who wrote the note hasn't come yet, could it be that he saw that there were so many people in the Water Ghost Gate tonight, so he temporarily changed his doctrine? Or is he planning an even more terrifying conspiracy? Song Xi had already regarded this person as Ye Cheng in his heart, although he couldn't believe that a handsome young man could be so vicious, but Zhuge Qing's death was vivid, so he couldn't help but believe it.
"Lord Liuzhai, outside Song Yuan, it's not early, if you are asked to go back at this time, what you know is that you want to go back, then those who don't know think that I Song doesn't know how to be hospitable, so I will knock you away. So let's not leave tonight, I've arranged the room, I'll stay here tonight, and I'll see you off tomorrow. ”
Qi Shengtian was naturally happy, let alone staying for one night, his plan was to stay here for a month to avoid the limelight, and immediately smiled and nodded in agreement.
Liu Jin was a little hesitant, thinking that the people in his Hailong Village lived in the Water Ghost Gate, and it would be enough if the other party gave him a stumbling block at night, but Qi Shengtian, who saw it, had already agreed, if he resigned, it was indeed too late, and secondly, he seemed too timid, so he had to bow his hand at the moment, which was considered to be a promise.
Song Xi arranged Qi Shengtian, Liu Jin and others in the middle and front of the village, but he picked the backmost room of the water ghost village, facing Taihu Lake. Not only that, Song Xun also secretly sent someone to prepare a small boat for himself to dock not far from his house, in case the enemy invaded, he could quickly escape by boat.
Of course, Song Xun wouldn't tell anyone about these thoughts, and thinking about everything he was going to face tonight, his heart couldn't help but get nervous.
One hour, two hours, drowsiness invaded Song Xi's body earlier than the enemy, he really couldn't support it, and he fell asleep a few times, but when he thought of the disaster he might face tonight, he cheered up again, and he secretly said in his heart: "The real Wuhou crossbow is here with me, if you want to use the Wuhou crossbow to execute, I want to see if you can get close to me." ”
What should come will always come.
Just when Song Xi was thinking, a melodious flute suddenly came from a distance, but this tune was really sad and miserable.
"It's coming!" Song Xi clenched the Wuhou crossbow in his hand, and Huo Ran stood up.
In addition to Song Xian, all the people also heard the sound of this flute, the disciples of the Water Ghost Sect saw their brother die in the village before, so when they heard this sound, they couldn't help but feel nervous, if it wasn't for helping Song Xian to prevent them from splashing dog blood, they might have gone to kill chickens and dogs again.
"Fuck, what a real evil sect, what's going on? Who doesn't sleep here at night and plays the flute blindly?" Liu Jin came up and was afraid of Song Xian's plot, so he didn't sleep, seeing that there was no danger, he had just fallen asleep, and he was awakened by the sound of the flute, and couldn't help kicking the door out, very angry.
The sound of the flute is tactful and low, which makes people shudder a little on the edge of this Taihu Lake, Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu have already mixed into the village at this time, but as soon as they heard the sound of the flute, they knew that the people who came here tonight were not only the two of them, but they were hiding in one place and watching the changes.
"Master, the sound of the flute seems to be coming from the door. At this time, the disciples of Hailong Village had also been awakened, and one of them pointed to the door and said to Liu Jin.
Liu Jin squinted and looked at it, but didn't see any clues, so he ordered: "Four Huzi, Zhao Youde, the two of you go to the door to see what the situation is, if you find the madman who plays the flute, bring him here for me." ”
Both of them were Liu Jin's henchmen, nodded at the moment, and each walked towards the gate of the village with a long knife in his hand.
At this time, Qi Shengtian also put on his clothes and came out to watch, and everyone saw that the two of them had arrived at the door, and their figures flashed and disappeared, and there was no flute for a while.
After a while, Dan saw a figure swaying at the door, but saw what seemed to be a mighty strong man staggering towards the village.
"Damn, it seems that this drunk is the one who disturbed Lao Tzu's dream in the middle of the night. Liu Jin signaled to the left and right, and the four disciples of the Sea Dragon Village understood it, and they all rushed towards the drunk man with ice blades, but seeing that the four people had not yet arrived in front of the drunk, they suddenly let out a very frightened scream in unison, and then the four of them ran back with a roll.
"No...... Oh no, the owner of the village!!" said one of them incoherently, and the other three were even more dead-faced, and one of them was speechless.
At this time, it happened that all the disciples of the Water Ghost Sect and Qi Shengtian and others were present, and seeing that their disciples were so frightened that their souls flew out of the sky, Liu Jin's face was red and white, and he thought, "Aren't you embarrassing me in front of everyone!"
Thinking of this, Liu Jin couldn't help but say, kicked the disciple who was talking to the side, and walked towards the drunk man with his weapon, but before he could take two steps, his body seemed to be poured with lead, and as if it had been poured with copper juice, standing there, opening his mouth wide, but unable to say a word.
"Lord Liuzhai, what's the matter? Look at what scares you like this. Qi Shengtian teased gloatingly, but when his eyes met the drunk, he almost bit off his tongue in shock.
The man was not a mighty drunkard, but two people, one carrying the other.
The person who was behind him drooped his head, and the blood flowed down drop by drop, forming a thin long line behind him, and then looking at the person in front of him, his eyes had been blinded, two lines of blood and tears flowed down his cheeks, and his mouth was closed one by one, but he couldn't say half a word.
When everyone approached, it seemed that the man had used up his last strength, and fell to the ground with a thud, dying of exhaustion.
These two people are the Four Tigers and Zhao Youde just now, everyone was stunned, and some disciples who had a good relationship with the Four Tigers had the courage to come over to take a look, and couldn't help but exclaim loudly: "The owner of the village, the tongues of the Four Tigers have also been cut off!"
In just a blink of an eye, from the sound of the flute, in less than a stick of incense, his two disciples had died tragically in the village, Liu Jin's sweat was already soaking through his clothes, but his mind was thinking quickly.
Qi Shengtian collapsed to the ground, nauseated, and retched.
The disciples of the Water Ghost Sect were also in a mess all of a sudden: "It's the powerful ghost who is here again, and he is here again to ask for his life!"
At this time, I saw Liu Jin snorting, grabbed the collar of a water ghost disciple next to him and asked: "What about Song Xi? I just said that this weasel gave New Year's greetings to chickens, and he was courteous and attentive to nothing, and there must be fraud, sure enough, do you think that I, Liu, who is pretending to be a ghost, am afraid of you? Hurry up and let him come out, I will fight with him to the death!"
At this time, the disciples of the Water Ghost Sect hurriedly explained, and told the situation last night, Liu Jin heard that someone in the Water Ghost Sect had also died because of this, and he couldn't help but be unexpected, and immediately shouted: "Since this is the case, you should go and see what is going on now, if you don't go, there is a ghost in your heart!"
The disciples of the Water Ghost Sect had a bad momentum, some sneaked away to find Song Xian, and some set up a formation to prepare to meet the enemy, but no one dared to go to the door to find out.
At this moment, the sound of the flute remembered again, but this time the sound of the flute was from far and near, slowly leaning towards everyone. In this silent night, although there were many people on Liu Jin's side, they were frightened by the sound of the flute.
Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu hid in the corner and saw the whole thing clearly, although the people of the Water Ghost Gate and the Sea Dragon Village had nothing to do with him, or even his opponent, but seeing that the two of them died in the blink of an eye, Ye Cheng still couldn't help but want to come out to see what was going on.
"Brother Ye, don't make a mistake! Now that the Water Ghost Gate and the Sea Dragon Village are in the light, and the enemy is in the dark, we will only make them suspect that we are the enemy's accomplices, so we will not be able to argue, I observed that Song Xian was not among the people, presumably this person had already expected it, and hid in advance, so we still found him first.
A sentence woke up Ye Cheng, and Ye Cheng whispered: "What Brother Zhao said is good, so it seems that he summoned so many people to come to the village tonight to be guests, just to find a few more backers to delay time for him when the enemy attacks." ”
Immediately, Ye Cheng and Zhao Xuanwu discussed it properly, left it alone, and went straight to the backyard.
At this time, Liu Jin was already a little impatient, the sound of the flute just now was intermittent until now, but the enemy still did not appear, Liu Jin couldn't help but sneer: "Friend, since you are here, why don't you show up to meet you, what kind of hero is sneaky! Do you think that in this way, I, Liu, am afraid of you!"
Seeing that no matter what he said, there was no response from the other side, Liu Jin couldn't help but say angrily: "You go and see again, who is teasing us here!"
Liu Jin instructed the people of the Water Ghost Sect not to move as long as they ordered their disciples again, but when their disciples saw that the two same disciples died in an instant, they were already frightened, who dared to step forward again. Just as he was shirking, he suddenly heard a scream in the room next to him, and then an object flew out and smashed straight towards Liu Jin.
Liu Jin, as the head of a faction, didn't dodge the other party's attack, and was smashed in the chest, but when he saw him take a few steps backwards and stood up to look at his figure again, what kind of hidden weapon smashed him was, it was a human head!
"It's Qi Shengtian!" someone recognized it with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but shout loudly.
At this time, Liu Jin had already recognized that the head on the ground was actually Qi Shengtian's head. It turned out that when he was in a panic just now, Qi Shengtian was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, afraid that the enemy would hurt people's lives in a while, but fortunately he crawled back to his room and locked the door, but even so, it was impossible to escape.
The death of the rabbit is inevitably sad, although Liu Jin fell out with Qi Shengtian, but seeing such a scene, he couldn't help but be very angry. But what he was most angry about was not Qi Shengtian's death, but that he hadn't seen who the enemy really was until now.
"Listen, everyone, surround that room! The enemy must be inside!" Liu Jin shouted loudly, now that Song Xun was not there, the disciples of the Water Ghost Sect who were still stranded in place when the dragons were leaderless had to follow the people of Hailong Village and obey Liu Jin's arrangement.
In an instant, seventy or eighty disciples from the Sea Dragon Village, plus hundreds of disciples from the Water Ghost Sect, surrounded the house where Qi Shengtian was hiding just now.
Liu Jin commanded others, but he stood on the outermost and shouted: "Listen to the friends inside, and hurry out to beg for mercy, maybe Liu can still open the net, otherwise the arrows will shoot you into a sieve!"
Before Liu Jin could finish speaking, he heard a crisp laugh on the roof of the house, and everyone looked up suddenly, but saw a woman in white standing with her head up, looking at everyone, looking fearless.
