Chapter 32: The Battle of Jinling [2]
Wang Shan arrived at Jinling in the evening of the next day, and according to the address given to him by his boss, he hired a fast horse and ran towards his destination.
Qixia Mountain, one of the beautiful scenery of Jinling, the most beautiful thing in Qixia Mountain is autumn, when the autumn wind blows, the red leaves of the mountain are like clouds draped on the mountain, so it is called Qixia Mountain.
It's not autumn, but the scenery is still beautiful under the glow of the sunset and the setting sun.
Wang Shan didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery, he came to Qixia Mountain for only one purpose, to cut off the tail that followed him.
He went straight to Qixia Mountain, he clearly remembered what was written on the paper, in the back mountain of Qixia Mountain, there is a cypress forest, the trees are high and dense, your task is to lead them here, and then ambush them. As soon as he entered Qixia Mountain, he was blocked, and the night was getting late, and there was no one coming and going on Qixia Mountain, but there were already people waiting for him on the way to the back mountain. The so-called road was nothing more than a flat road that slowly formed along the river course on the mountain, and here someone was waiting for him, three masked men.
Wang Shan rode his horse straight and wanted to cross a road hard.
The three people were in the shape of a zigzag and passed opposite Wang Shan.
The knife rises, and the horse neighses. Wang Shan's horse and the three men met each other, and the horse turned into a one-legged horse and fell to the ground, blood splattering out. Wang Shan then jumped up with momentum, flew forward, and had already left the three people behind, he rushed directly into the forest, and rushed towards the back mountain. The three of them also tapped their footsteps and followed directly.
Wang Shan ran desperately, the branches along the way kept whipping his flying body, but he still walked forward, he knew that only when he reached his destination, he could kill the killer who followed him in one fell swoop.
Wang Shan ran all the way to the cypress forest in the back mountain, and one leaned down and hid in the cypress forest in the dark night. Under the cover of night, he hid behind a large tree, surrounded by bushes, which obscured his figure well. He slowly calmed down his wheezing and hid in the bushes to listen to his pursuers.
The three pursuers had already come to the cypress forest, and one of them listened quietly for a while, and said: "The sound of no one running, it is estimated that they are hiding in this wood, and we are guarding alone, I will first send a signal to call people over, and then slowly search." โ
After speaking, he took out a rocket and shot it into the sky, and the rocket flew into the sky, emitting brilliant sparks. After a while, a group of people came.
Someone among them issued an order, "In a group of three, surround and scatter the search, gradually move closer to the middle, remember to find the target, just follow it, send a signal to notify, this target is tricky." โ
The crowd dispersed, surrounding the woods and slowly began to search. Wang Shan waited quietly, listening to the rustling sound of the searching crowd touching the branches, judging the distance gradually approaching the crowd, a sharp knife appeared in his hand, and he began to carefully set up the mechanism, he didn't have time to set up the big mechanism, the only way was to distract the attention of the three people, and then take advantage of their unpreparedness to kill them in one fell swoop.
He had just set up a mechanism, and found that the person had come to a place more than a dozen steps ahead, he got up and slowly crawled forward, the sound was alarmed, the three people who were searching, the three people immediately quickly leaned towards the place where he made the sound, but when they walked into the bushes, they heard a crisp sound, a thick branch with the sound of the wind hit head-on, the three raised their knives to block, but the force of the branch was too large, directly knocked the two people to the ground, when they got up, found that their companion had fallen to the ground, and then heard the breaking sound of the fist hitting their throat, and they didn't even have time to shout, and fell directly to the groundใ
Wang Shan picked up the knife, like a cat, and ran in the opposite direction, he knew that people would come in a while, although there was no sound just now, but the movement of falling to the ground was too big, and it was estimated that it would soon attract people.
He lowered his body, quickly ran to the back of another big tree, began to tie the knife and branches together, and made a mechanism, he did it very carefully, and slowly made three mechanisms with knives, and then pricked up his ears to sound movement, suddenly he heard a crisp bird call, in the southeast direction, he knew that this was their contact method, he immediately got up and ran rapidly to the southeast, he was together, it attracted the search crowd, people quickly chased up, he ran close to the tree, to prevent the hidden weapon, the arrow shot himself, he heard a few screams from behind, it is estimated that he was hit by his mechanism, he smiled slightly, a little proudใ Yes, he is a good hunter, and in his homeland it has always been said that he has the perfect mechanism and that no beast can escape his trap.
His agency succeeded in stopping the searchers and buying him time. He had already run to the place where the bird had just called, and leaned against the tree.
A hand grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into the bushes, he reflexively grabbed the hand that had grabbed his arm, and a reversal had already taken the man into his arms.
"It's me, don't do it. He heard it, it was the pawnshop owner.
He let go of his hand, and the boss led him to lie down under the bushes, and they waited quietly for the prey to take the bait.
After a while, his pursuers caught up with him, and stopped before them, and the man who had been lying on the ground again fell to the ground and listened carefully, and after a moment of listening, he whispered a few words to a leader-like figure.
The leader waved his hand, and all the men gathered together and slowly searched forward.
With a crisp bird's call, the leader shouted: "Retreat, there is an ambush". But it was too late, arrows were shooting from all directions, like rain of arrows, Wang Shan looked at the things in the hands of the archers beside him, and asked the boss: "This is a Zhuge crossbow." โ
The boss smiled and said: "It's a Zhuge chain crossbow, 10 arrows each time, and at such a close distance, the immortals can't escape the encirclement and shooting of forty people." โ
Wang Shan watched his opponents being shot one by one so leisurely, indeed, the distance was too close, he was not a top master, and it was impossible to dodge the serial attacks of dozens of people.
The screams continued, and after a while, no one was standing, they all fell to the ground, and Wang Shan and the boss stood up. Wang Shan was just about to come forward to watch. The boss blocked him, and with a wave of his hand, another rain of arrows came.
The pawnshop owner smiled and said, "Safe point, anyway, there are more arrows." โ
Wang Shan glanced at the boss, walked straight to the pile of corpses without speaking, looked at the corpse tied into a hedgehog, and felt a sad feeling in his heart, life was like a cloud, and he passed in a hurry.
These people may have lost their lives without even trying the beauty of life, and some people have decided the life and death of so many people with a single sentence. Some people don't know why they lose their lives inexplicably.
The pawnshop owner stepped forward with a smile, beckoned, and a group of people cleaned up the scene, pulled out arrows, carried the body to their shoulders, and carried water to wash the scene. After a while, the scene was restored as if there had never been a fight.
The pawnshop owner looked at all this with a smile, as if it had been made into a deal.
He opened his mouth and said: "If we don't clean it, it will cause trouble for the people in the government, so we have to clean up the scene." โ
Wang Shan said, "Aren't you afraid that the people of heaven will catch up?"
The pawnshop owner said with a smile: "There are so many people in Jinling, no one will catch up."
"By the way, your itinerary is arranged, you see. After speaking, he handed Wang Shan a letter.
Wang Shan opened the letter, looked at it slowly, and slowly lit it after reading it. I watched as the letter gradually turned into a black ash that disappeared as soon as the wind blew it.
Is human life like ashes, and it will be blown away by fate? Wang Shan looked at the ashes flying in the wind and thought.
