"Master! Are we trapped?" Long Fusheng asked.
"What, are you scared?" Tang Zhong asked.
"No! It's just that if we don't find a way to escape, we will be discovered by the Japanese bandits sooner or later." Long Fusheng said.
"Then what can be done?" Tang Zhong asked again.
"This cave may have more than one exit." Long Fusheng guessed.
"There should be more than one exit, but we can't leave yet." Tang Zhong objected.
"Why?" Brother Long asked.
"I'm waiting for someone!" Tang Zhong replied.
"Who are you waiting for?"
"You will know in a moment." Tang Zhong did not directly tell them the answer.
Just when a few people were curious, they suddenly heard a sparrow chirping in the air, coming straight towards Tangzhong.
"Here he comes!" Tang Zhong was overjoyed and reached out directly. The bird landed on the back of Tang Zhong's hand and continued to chirp. After hearing this, Tang Zhong's expression became even more joyful, and he said calmly: "Okay, thank you!" After saying that, he released the little chaffinch. The little chaffinch did not move away, but flew towards the back of the passage, still chirping "chirp-chirp".
"It said there is an exit behind it. You should follow it and go first." Tang Zhong said to the Long brothers and Wang Ruobin.
"We're leaving, what will you do, Master?" Long Fuzhang asked.
"Don't worry! I'm fine, reinforcements will arrive soon." Tang Zhong replied.
"No! We can't leave you here alone, the master. Now that the reinforcements have arrived, we don't have to leave in a hurry." Although Long Fuzhang is not a truly good person, he still values loyalty in the world. People who have fought in the green forest attach great importance to the word "loyalty".
Although the enemies they faced were not people they could deal with, they were not afraid. The bandit Long Fuzhang, now under Tang Zhong's hands, has gradually become very righteous.
People will change, it just depends on how you are affected. If a person continues to be influenced by good things, he will gradually get better. Of course, if a person keeps dealing with bad people, he will naturally become worse and worse.
"Haha! Aren't you afraid?" Tang Zhong asked with a smile.
"The boss is not afraid, so what are we afraid of?" Long Fuzhang asked.
"good!"
Just as he was talking, another group of adults came outside, making an extremely noisy noise. The largest number of Japanese pirates came in this time, two to three hundred people, and all of them gained a lot. Obviously, they couldn't rob anything. As a result, the cave immediately became crowded, because four to five hundred Japanese pirates had been squeezed in. It seems that most of the Japanese pirates who climbed the cliff this time gathered here. Even if some get here, it must be a very small part. The main force of the Japanese pirates they are looking for this time must be all here, but only these four or five people in Tangzhong have no ability to protect themselves, let alone deal with the Japanese pirates. Fortunately, Tang Zhong had the foresight and had already thought of a way to call for reinforcements.
"No! Someone is coming." The Dead Water Fairy suddenly said in shock as the group of people came over.
"Impossible!" said the little boss who came in just now.
"Are you being followed?" Hong Yaqiu, the dead water fairy, asked again.
"No! Absolutely impossible." The Japanese pirate still denied.
"Then how did the other party know that we are here? Could it be that there is an spy from the other party in this cave!" Dead Water Fairy guessed.
"Search for me!" Upon hearing this, Matsuno somewhat believed his junior sister's guess, so he ordered.
"Elder brother, I'll go out and delay for a while, and you guys should retreat quickly." The dead water fairy said, and then she left the cave alone.
"They want to run away." After Tang Zhong finished speaking, he immediately called back the sparrows. After a brief conversation with each bird, Tang Zhong immediately said with great joy: "Great! If this is the case, if these Japanese thieves want to escape, they will also It’s not that easy.”
"Master, what should we do?" Long Fuzhang asked.
"Fish in troubled waters!" Tang Zhong said, and told Long Fusheng and the others his plan.
"What a plan! When Long Fuzhang and the other three heard this, they all immediately agreed.
The Long brothers acted separately, while Wang Ruobin acted together in Tangzhong. At this time, several more chaffinches flew into the cave, guiding the Long brothers and Tang Zhong respectively.
It turned out that the branch roads in this cave extended in all directions, but it was the first time for Tang Zhong and the others to enter, so they didn't know the way at all. However, these chaffinches are very familiar with the environment inside the cave, because their nests are built in this cave. Tang Zhong then discussed with the chaffinch and asked him to call a few more companions to guide the four of him.
This little chaffinch is really a good friend, and he actually called many companions to guide the people of the Dragon Sword Society.
The whereabouts of the Japanese pirates were exposed for no reason. Matsuno and Dead Water Fairy listened to the movement outside for a while and knew that there were a large number of martial arts people outside, surrounding them in the cave. If you forcefully rush out now, you will definitely be surrounded by Central Plains warriors waiting for work in the cave and kill them to their heart's content. Not to mention not being able to break through by then, I'm afraid there's a risk of the entire army being annihilated.
So the Dead Water Fairy discussed with Matsuno, and Matsuno led a large group of people to evacuate from other exits. The dead water fairy can delay time with the help of the immortal water ghost. With the Immortal Water Ghost around, the other party would certainly not dare to venture in, which gave them time to escape.
While Matsuno was leading the Japanese pirates to evacuate, he was thinking about a problem. Although they made a lot of noise this time, their hiding place has always been very secretive. They had fought against Xiaoyaomen so many times before, but they had never been discovered by the other party. How come this time, the people from the Central Plains martial arts community found their secret hiding place so quickly. Could it be that there really is a spy from the other party in this cave? In other words, they were the Japanese pirates who had sneaked into the Central Plains martial arts world.
However, their Japanese pirates this time were almost all composed of Japanese rogues and some people from the Japanese martial arts. It was not easy for spies from the Central Plains martial arts to sneak in. Matsuno didn't know where the spy was for a while, so he could only lead the Japanese pirates and escape to other exits in three directions.
He is not very worried about his junior sister Dead Water Fairy, because he and Dead Water Fairy actually don't have much of a kinship at all. Moreover, they had secretly had conflicts because they were fighting among themselves for the succession of their master.
Huo Xie Zong is nearly ninety years old. Although he still looks healthy now, he will die sooner or later, and it should not be more than a few years. The Fire Evil Sect, both for his power and the wealth he has accumulated over the years, is coveted by their disciples and subordinates. Therefore, the reason why the Dead Water Fairy and Matsuno are at odds is because of this.
Tang Zhong had noticed this a long time ago. He just didn't understand. The Dead Water Fairy was so different in age from Matsuno. How could she be qualified to compete with Matsuno? Tang Zhong felt that all his inferences were reasonable, except for the dead water fairy's age. The more he thought about it, the more wrong he became.
"Shouldn't the Dead Water Fairy be so young?" Although Zheng Jing was also very young, Tang Zhong didn't think there was anything wrong. He just thought that there seemed to be something wrong with the Dead Water Fairy's age. As for why it was wrong, Tang Zhong couldn't explain it for a while.
Matsuno led a group of people on one side, Zheng Jing led a group of people on the other side, and another group of people was led by Ghost Four and Ghost Five from Poisonous Beast Gorge.
Since they have been surrounded, this means that someone around them must be delivering news to Ren Xiaoyao, and the other party may already know their whereabouts. Therefore, if we act separately, we can break out of the encirclement separately, and we will not be defeated by the opponent in one fell swoop. They moved very quickly, and the cave extended in all directions, and they were soon far away from the entrance surrounded by warriors from the Central Plains.
Matsuno breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. As long as they escape, they will be able to find the spy and get rid of him.
Matsuno even suspected that this spy might be someone from Dushouxia. Because except for the small number of Central Plains people in Dushou Gorge, there are no Central Plains people among them.
"Big boss, there's a fire ahead!" Matsuno was thinking about countermeasures when suddenly his men who were exploring the way came back in a hurry to report. Before the man finished speaking, a burst of thick smoke came from the cave in front, which made everyone unable to breathe and unable to open their eyes.
"Sure enough, there is a spy!" Matsuno was now more certain that there must be a spy among them. As for who it was, he couldn't guess it for a while.
This road was already narrow, so they moved in three groups of four to five hundred people. There were still more than a hundred people on each road. Now they were crowded in this small road, and when they were hit by the thick smoke, they immediately became a mess.
"Don't panic, just cover your face with wine and a wet towel." Although Matsuno said this, he himself was actually a little confused.
Because even if he covered his face with a wet towel, he wouldn't be choked for the time being, but the smoke was so thick that he couldn't see at all. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush forward.
Matsuno walked to the front, only to see a fire blocking the road ahead. The firewood they used was the same dry firewood they had not used up in the cave just now.
This shows that when they were cooking wine over the fire in the cave just now, the spy who set the fire must have been near them.
We can't get through here, so we have to take a detour. Fortunately, this cave is connected in all directions, and other roads can also bypass this crater, but it will take a little more time.
Matsuno felt more and more passive, as if there was a pair of eyes behind him, and no matter what they were doing, the other party knew everything.
Matsuno was already planning to change his route, but at this moment, a chaffinch chirped in the cave and didn't even notice the fire. Matsuno felt suspicious and threw a dart. The sparrow was frightened and immediately dodged the hidden weapon and seemed to be running for its life.
"Bird? Which way is it leaking our whereabouts?" Although Matsuno has realized this, he cannot believe his guess for the time being.
Not only was Matsuno's road blocked by fire, Zheng Jing, Gui Si and Gui Wu also encountered the same situation. Therefore, they could only find ways to change the route. If they could not change the route, they could only forcefully put out the fire and then continue to pass.
But in this way, a lot of time was wasted. Originally, they could escape while the Dead Water Fairy was stalling for time. Now that someone is making trouble like this,
Now they are not even halfway out of the cave.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Matsuno and others felt more and more that their trip might be disastrous, so they had to speed up their escape.
