Chapter 10: The Attack is Launched
Could the little boy in Tsing Yi who was running on the roof really be forgotten? Absolutely impossible! So he ran across the Pak Lok Bridge, and informed the old beggar that they would continue to follow the carriage?
We still remember that it was already dark in Luoyan City at that time, and the moonlight after the Mid-Autumn Festival always did not rise slowly until the second half of the night, so it was the beginning of the first half of the night, and it was also the darkest time. How inconvenient this was for the carriage walking on the night road! So its speed was easy for two skilled martial artists to track!
At that moment, almost as soon as the carriage stopped, the little man and the old beggar-looking two secret followers had already arrived. So they followed the slope of the roadbed, taking advantage of the tall and dense weeds on the slope as cover, and stealthily approached the carriage, almost three or four paces from the carriage. Therefore, they could see and hear everything that was happening in the carriage and on the canopy boat at that time.
When they saw the four men in black, they took the two women to the canopy boat in turn, they all seemed very calm, without the slightest impulse, and they didn't seem to be in a hurry to snatch the people back, they seemed to have bigger plans!
When the men in the carriage had boarded the boat, only one of the coachmen was still sitting on his horse's seat, humming a little song leisurely, his feet resting high on the log in front of him, almost reclining on the seat cushion, his head resting on the planks of the carriage, and the whip of the horse resting on the tiger's mouth in his right hand, as if he were in a reverie and having fun with the demons and witches in the dark sky, and he looked like he was self-absorbed!
However, disasters sometimes occur when people are unconscious!
The two men lying in the deep grass, like crocodiles on the edge of a riverbank, looked so still that the wildebeest thought it was a terrible-looking stone that posed no danger at all, and so the herds of wildebeest boldly walked past it and came to the clear river to drink. The result is predictable - tragedy struck, when the crocodile suddenly opened its bloody jaw and bit off the neck of the unsuspecting wildebeest.
In the same way, just when the coachman was defenseless, two men in the deep grass moved, and a bright parting hook, still emitting a chilling light in the dark night, slid silently and like a water snake under the coachman's swarthy neck. But the ridiculous coachman, who had not yet sensed the imminence of death, was still squinting his eyes and humming his endless songs.
So, a young man in Tsing Yi patted him on the shoulder.
"What's the matter!" said the coachman, who would have asked such a ridiculous question.
"I'm going to die!" the voice was cold in winter.
The coachman was startled, and the man covered his mouth with his hand and whispered a warning.
"If you don't want to die, be honest!"
When the coachman heard this, his frightened eyes widened, and he nodded as if he were pounding garlic. So the man's heart-warming parting hook rested under his neck, and he took away the hand that was on the coachman's mouth.
"What's your name?"
"Liang Da. ”
"Who told you to get these two women here?"
"Hu Gongzi. ”
"Hu Gongzi, where is he from?"
"I don't know!"
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
"Uncle spares his life, I really don't know! It seems that he is from Luoyang. ”
"And what else do you know?"
"I ...... I ......"
"Tell us everything you know about this boat, and if you miss a word, I'll cut it off!"
"I say, I say!" stammered the coachman, "my cousin suddenly came to Luoyan City the afternoon before yesterday, and found me, and said that I should follow Hu Gongzi to ensure that I will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future; So in the evening he told us to catch him......"
"Who is your cousin, and what's his name?"
"His name is Ren Chong, and the people in the Jiangbei area call him 'Ren Chong' with the arm of the god blocking the car!"
"Is he on the boat too?"
"Yes!" said the coachman, "he is also one of the thugs of Hu Gongzi." ”
"Who else is on this boat?"
"There is also a middle-aged man named Cui Sanye, and a Wutai Mountain monk named Zhu Xiong, and the rest are some gangsters!"
"What does Cui Sanye do, and what is he capable of?"
"I don't know!"
"Hmm!" the parting hook of the young man in Tsing Yi almost made the coachman's neck feel a sharp pain!
He shuddered.
"I really don't know!
"What about Zhu Xiong from Wutai Mountain, what does he do?"
"Like my cousin, he is also a thug, and I heard that he has a very powerful set of skills called 'Iron Ox Ploughing'......"
"Iron oxen plough the pen!" said the old beggar who was with the little boy in surprise.
"Do you know this person?" asked the young man in Tsing Yi.
"I've just heard of it!" said the old beggar, "when I was still in the 'Crow Gang', I heard that there was a monk from Wutai Mountain on the rivers and lakes, who was known as the 'Iron Ox Ploughing Fence', but he had never met it!"
"Then you must be careful later!" asked the coachman again, "what else do you know?"
"No, I've said everything I know!"
"Hmm!"
"It's really gone, two masters, ancestors, spare your life......" The coachman's neck was broken, and he fell to the side of the road like a dead dog, motionless.
At this moment, under the light of the wind lamp on the mast on the bow of the canopy, there are two men in black carrying Tang knives on their shoulders, vigilantly patrolling the surrounding movements, and at the stern, there are also two ordinary men in black who are guarding with knives. Not only that, but there was a narrow aisle between the side of the boat and the canopy, and there was also a man with a sharp knife walking back and forth on it.
With such strict precautions, it seems that it is not easy to attack the ship!
However, they did not flinch or hesitate, they resolutely stepped on the gangplank to the canopy boat.
I saw a man in Tsing Yi walking up with a bright and blood-dripping parting hook in his hand, and one of the men in black who was on guard pointed the Tang knife on his shoulder and pointed at the comer.
"What are you doing...... Before he could finish his words, the other party suddenly came to his side, and the parting hook in his hand also cut his throat.
When the other man saw this, he screamed, and slashed the Tang knife in his hand towards the other party's face door as if he were crazy, but his Tang knife was a little sluggish compared to the parting hook of a person. Before his Tang knife approached the front door of the other party, the sharp hook of the other party's blood fluttering in the light of the night wind had already cut his arm with the knife on the deck.
The other party, hooked again, the man in black screamed! When his chest was split in half, he was planted in the lake!
At the same time, the necks of the two men in black at the stern of the boat were torn off by the elusive talons of the old beggar and thrown into the lake.
Therefore, the sound that Hu Gongzi in the cabin heard at that time was that the two people had attacked the ship.
