The winter wind is coming and the nights are getting colder.
A group of Japanese people were advancing rapidly in the barren mountains, taking a little girl with them.
The little girl looked frightened but did not speak. It seemed that she had been kidnapped by the Japanese and several large acupoints on her body were restrained.
Because it was late at night and the cold wind was howling, this group of Japanese wanted to find a place to rest, but they never met anyone, let alone an inn.
With great difficulty, I finally saw a ruined temple in the mountains. The leader of the Japanese gave a few instructions softly, and then rushed towards the ruined temple with his men and the little girl.
The ruined temple looks huge, but it has also been abandoned for a long time. The Japanese pirate leader approached the door and saw a faint flicker of fire inside, and the sound of talking and laughing could be heard.
"It seems that someone has prejudged this place again!" The Japanese leader thought for a moment, but still gently opened the door. Because if he didn't go in, I'm afraid he and his men would really have to spend the night in the wilderness.
When the Japanese leader opened the door, he saw four people inside talking and laughing around the fire. Because there are many people on his side, the Japanese leader is temporarily relieved. After all, if he really takes action, he will still have a great advantage because of the large number of people on his side.
This group of Japanese was Gu Tengyi's Jiateng sect. The leader was naturally Gu Tengyi, and the little girl they kidnapped was Ren Hailuan from Xiaoyaomen.
When the four people saw a large group of Japanese people suddenly barging in, the conversation suddenly stopped, and they couldn't help but glance at Gu Teng and the others. When they saw Ren Hailuan, they looked slightly surprised, but then quickly returned to normal, and continued to eat meat and drink around the fire, but they no longer talked and laughed.
While Gu Teng was calling his men to get firewood and search for food, he was looking at the four people who came in first.
The four people were an old man carrying a fork, a short man carrying a large knife, a woman with an eight-cut knife hanging from her waist, and a young and thin man carrying a stainless steel pole.
When Gu Teng saw that the four of them were armed with weapons and spoke in a high-pitched tone, they were obviously all members of the Lian family, so he didn't want to provoke them.
However, Ren Hailuan had already recognized these four people. They turned out to be the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan. Previously, Xiaoyaomen had traveled with the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan, and they had also lived together in the palace for a long time, so they were very familiar with them. Now that Ren Hailuan had seen an acquaintance, she naturally wanted to ask for help. But the acupuncture points on her body were restrained and she couldn't speak at all. He looked at Qi Xiangshi and the other four, but they also secretly gave her a wink, apparently telling her not to act rashly.
Although Ren Hailuan is young, he is still very smart. She has already seen how powerful Gu Tengyi is, and the Jia Teng Sect has a large number of people. If the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan and the Jia Teng Sect confront each other head-on, they will definitely not get the slightest advantage. She knew from her previous contact with the Four Ghosts in Western Sichuan that these four people were all chivalrous men with a sense of justice. Now that they have recognized themselves, they will never sit back and do nothing. They must be secretly trying to save themselves, and they must not disrupt their plans.
It was too late for Jia Teng to enter the temple, and it was already freezing cold outside the temple. Most of the firewood Gu Teng asked his men to find were wet firewood that had not been dried thoroughly, so it was impossible to make a fire at all.
Seeing this, Qi Xiangshi suddenly had a plan in mind, so he hurriedly gave Qi Xiaoxiao a look. Qi Xiaoxiao understood immediately, so he took out a burning log from the fire as kindling, and handed it to Gu Tengyi. Gu Teng hesitated for a moment, but finally took the fire and started the fire.
At this time, Aiguan Guanliang took advantage of this opportunity and took some pheasants that had been roasted and handed them to Gu Tengyi. At this time, Gu Tengyi finally became suspicious and did not reach out to pick it up. Instead, he looked at Guan Liang with strange eyes.
"Haha! We are all brothers within the four seas! Are you afraid of poison? Then let me try it for you first!" Qi Xiangshi immediately saw through Gu Tengyi's thoughts, so he took a roast chicken from Guan Liang's hand , opened his mouth and took a bite, then grabbed the chicken body with his backhand, and handed it to Gu Teng again: "This Japanese brother, you should believe us now, right?"
When Gu Teng saw that it was okay for them to eat first, he no longer doubted it, and just asked his men to take a few pheasants, and then said seriously: "Thank you!"
"Haha! You're welcome! When you go out, you rely on your friends." At this time, the thin man Chen Bai said with a smile, and then handed over several jars of good wine.
When Gu Teng saw that his men were eating happily, he finally felt relieved, so he pulled off half of the chicken leg and started eating.
However, before he finished eating half of the chicken drumstick, he suddenly felt dizzy. When he looked at his subordinates, they were all staggering in confusion.
"You guys, poison..." Gu Teng asked sharply.
But before he finished speaking, he couldn't hold it anymore, his vision suddenly went dark, and then he didn't know anything anymore.
"You group of Japanese pirates actually dare to go to the Central Plains to do evil. If not, who would you poison?" Chen Bai said proudly.
It turned out that after Qi Xiangshi saw Ren Hailuan just now, he had already concluded that she had been kidnapped by these Japanese warriors, so he decided to poison her to save her. They first poisoned several roasted pheasants with Mongolian sweat medicine, except for one, which was the one Qi Xiangshi tried to eat. When Qi Xiangshi tasted it, the chicken had not yet been covered with sweat medicine, but he had already applied the medicine powder on his hands, so when he handed the pheasant over with his backhand, he deliberately touched it again, so as not to The poisonous pheasant is also poisonous.
Chen Bai was afraid that there would be too few pheasants and not enough portions, so he sent several jars of poisonous wine over and poured it on the Japanese one by one. This ensured that everything was safe.
"Miss Ren, how did you fall into the hands of these Japanese pirates?" Qi Xiaoxiao asked.
"It's a long story, let's leave quickly! There is a more powerful Japanese warrior who will chase him later." Ren Hailuan reminded.
Although Ren Hailuan did not understand Japanese, she could still see from Taro Kimura's words and deeds that Taro Kimura was not just saving her out of good intentions.
"Are there Japanese people?" Qi Xiangshi asked in surprise.
Ren Hailuan nodded, and then said: "I was originally going to Meijiazhai to find my uncle, but I didn't want to meet these Japanese people halfway, so I fell into their hands."
"Are you going to Meijiazhai? Coincidentally, we are also going to Meijiazhai." Guan Liang said happily.
"Why are you going to Meijiazhai?" Ren Hailuan asked.
"I am close friends with Mr. Mei. This time he is in trouble, so I have to help." Qi Xiangshi replied.
"Oh! That's it. My uncle has already taken the masters from the Tang Sect to Meijiazhai first, and now that there are four more to help, no matter how many Japanese ninjas go to Meijiazhai to cause trouble, they will not be afraid. "Ren Hailuan finally understood why he bumped into the Four Ghosts of Western Sichuan here, but it turned out that it was not a coincidence at all, but that they were all going to Meijiazhai.
"That's good, we can go on the road together, and there will be someone to take care of us on the way." Qi Xiaoxiao said.
"Without further delay, let's leave quickly." Qi Xiangshi ordered.
"What should we do with these Japanese pirates?" Chen Bai asked.
"It's not a hero's fault to hurt people from behind. Let them go first." Qi Xiangshi replied.
