Liao Sanniang has already grasped some information about the enemy. The opponent has four tall and strong men. They are her main enemies. She does not know the enemy's fighting will. On the battlefield, as long as the elite soldiers are defeated and wiped out, it will trigger Collapse, but in small-scale private fights for their own selfish interests, people tend to be more ferocious and persistent. In many cases, the winner will not be determined until the balance of numbers flips, which may mean that one's side has to defeat fifteen people without any loss. This is somewhat difficult.
In autumn, the plants begin to wither, and the branches are still covered with residual leaves. The branches become more brittle, and the sound of stepping on and breaking is louder. The closer to the depth, the more careful Liao Sanniang becomes, which makes her walk slower.
A large amount of vegetation made the field of vision poor, and the distance between Liao Sanniang and Xiao Bazi behind her had been reduced to two steps, ensuring that the two of them could respond more quickly in the event of an emergency.
After passing a narrow road, Liao Sanniang turned her head and made a horizontal line gesture to Xiao Bazi.
Xiao Bazi understood, took out a piece of steel wire from his waist, stretched the steel wire horizontally on the tree at a position about a person's height, then took out five smoke-blackened fishhooks and hung them side by side on the steel wire. The matte steel wire and fishhook are difficult to see with the naked eye if they are a little far away.
After the arrangement was completed, Liao Sanniang waved gently and the two continued to move forward.
After walking forward for a while, a little white light shone in front of me, which was the reflection of the skin.
Liao Sanniang froze and suddenly raised her left fist. The little boy behind her immediately froze in place, and then an impatient man's voice not far ahead sounded: "I've been waiting here for a long time, how come those bullies are still here?" Not coming.”
Then another wretched voice sounded, saying: "You are a radish seller and you are following the salt ladle. I'm so sorry. There is a leader who plans this kind of thing. Why are you so anxious? I heard that there is a woman in the team this time." , I think all the brothers can be happy for a few more days. A few days ago, our brothers robbed the family of a group of people who were returning home. I pulled the three bullies to the side of the road, killed one family with a simple knife, and then killed the two This woman is playing tricks, hey hey, that little lady's body is as white as freshly squeezed goat's milk..."
Amid the obscene words, a circle of suppressed obscene laughter sounded all around.
Suddenly someone whispered: "Here we come."
There was a commotion among those people. They stretched their necks and leaned forward to watch. Their clothes rubbed against each other, making a squeaking sound.
Everyone looked through the trees and saw at the corner of the road, more than ten men escorting a mule cart, slowly approaching here, creaking and creaking.
Behind them, Liao Sanniang looked sternly and gestured to Xiao Bazi. The two of them moved slowly towards the trees beside them at the same time, and quietly disappeared behind the trees, blending into the shadows and turning into a silent death.
Zhao Liangjian sat on the horizontal branch of a half-dead locust tree and looked into the distance. He saw Liao Sanniang and his wife stopping for a while at the bend of the road and then went into the forest beside the road.
Zhao Liangjian looked up at the sky, then turned to look at Old Feng squatting under the tree smoking. Seeing that there was only a butt of cigarette left in his mouth, he estimated the time and jumped down from the locust tree.
Old Feng glanced at Zhao Liangjian and jumped down. He immediately put out his cigarette butt on the tree trunk, picked up his riding whip, flicked his wrist, and made a sharp crack in the air. Everyone got up and went on their way.
After turning the corner of the road and walking forward for another step, Zhao Liangjian took the horse by the arm, clapped his hands, and released the dart dog from the team. The dog made a sniffing sound from its nose, and then barked loudly.
Zhao Liangjian shouted loudly: "The evil tiger is blocking the road, everyone, be careful."
Everyone in the escort station immediately stopped. When the two guys beside the mule cart heard the warning, they immediately untied the slip knot of the rope that tied the cart, twisted the winches on both sides of the cart a few times, loosened the tight rope, and covered the mule cart. The tarpaulin immediately spread out with a "snap".
The waiters took out shields and long-handled weapons from the gaps in the cargo boxes under the tarpaulin. There was a jingling sound. Everyone held the weapons in their hands, protected the silver carts, and formed a defensive formation.
Zhao Liangjian's eyes flashed suddenly, he faced the road and shouted loudly: "After turning the road, there is another bend, and there is an evil tiger blocking the road. Brothers have weapons in their hands, and the thieves are frightened at the sight. All the brothers fight together. Tiger, all over the world, all the way to Ning'an."
After reciting a few simple poems, Zhao Liangjian pulled out a thick fetlock steel whip from the holster next to the saddle, dismounted, held the horizontal whip in his hand, and walked to the front of the team.
Zhao Liangjian shouted loudly to both sides of the road: "Listen to the truth, people in the forest, you have been defeated. If you are a brave man with clenched teeth and hair, come out to meet us. Online friends, there is no need to hide your head and tail." .”
As soon as the words fell, the forest became silent, except for a ball of dead grass pushed by the wind, rolling across the empty road.
Zhao Liangjian saw that there was silence for a long time, then continued: "After sitting down, I escorted the car back, reported the lawsuit, raised my hand, and led the thieves who came to catch the thieves."
After waiting for a moment, no one around him spoke, as if Zhao Liangjian was talking to himself.
Zhao Liangjian shouted again: "You wait inside, I'll wait outside. How can you talk about things? It's sneaky and vulgar. It's not the behavior of a hero. Don't call for arrows to shoot. Point out where to hide. If you can't hide, pull out the general. The hero's face is covered with beard. It doesn’t look good. If word spreads, the world will look down upon it.” After saying that, he waved the steel whip in his hand over his head.
Liu Chang behind him saw the signal, jumped up to the roof of the mule cart, opened his eight-horse riding bow, and shot out a hammer with a "sun" sound. The arrow whistle whistled, and the arrow drew a high parabola and flew out. After dozens of steps, the potential energy was exhausted and he fell to the center of the road ahead.
This time, he didn't wait much. As soon as the sound of the arrow fell, a whistle sounded in front of him. More than 20 people poured out of the forest dozens of steps away. They rushed in and stopped within 20 steps of Zhao Liangjian and others.
When everyone in the escort agency saw the thief called out, they immediately became nervous and gathered closer together.
A big man walked out of the group of thieves. The big man had rough skin, a face full of flesh, a fist and a beard, a fat figure, wrapped in a green cloth turban, and wore a shirt with neither armor nor a shawl. It was so dirty that the color could not be seen. Wearing armor with copper nails and cloth, and carrying a long sword with a blade of five feet and a handle of one foot and five inches, he was obviously the leader of the group.
The big man came closer and asked with some doubts: "I thought I never showed any flaws, how did you find out where we were hiding?"
Zhao Liangjian walked up to the head and said with a smile: "The spiritual mastiff on the ground is chasing thousands of miles, and the divine eagle in the sky is looking into the clouds. We have our own laws."
After saying this, he raised his voice and asked loudly: "Do you know the surname of this good man?"
The big man snorted coldly: "I asked for the name, how can I take someone in the future? I am the king of the underworld. I only care about the dead, not the living. Just call me Wu Yanluo."
Zhao Liangjian did not feel dissatisfied, and cupped his hands and said: "Beyond the mountains there are mountains, and beyond the forests there are forests. The rivers and lakes were originally a line. My younger brother is poor because of walking. The green forests and rivers are my home. The road divides into east and west, turning the mountains and rivers and adding fragrance. We will wait. He is an escort from Jingcheng and Liansheng Escort Bureau. He passed by Guibao today, hoping to make it convenient. He looked around for a moment and borrowed the half-sail to borrow the east wind to go west. If accepted, I would like to express my gratitude. I will arrange some expenses here and buy some wine for you brothers. When you buy meat, it’s not what you mean, it’s just a reflection of people’s hearts.”
After saying that, Zhao Liangjian waved his hand and handed over a thirty-tael wallet. Zhao Liangjian took it and threw it in front of Wu Yanluo.
Wu Yanluo squinted at the baggage and curled up his lips contemptuously, saying, "Who is in the same family as you! I am not a wanderer in the world. Your bullshit rules can't control my family. I don't know what the union is." Sheng, I don’t understand your lingo. Grandpa doesn’t cultivate good deeds. He always does things by being strong and evil. He kills men, rapes women, and takes away property. Life is short, so you should be happy and contented. . If you are a wise man, I will leave the carriage and horses behind and let you go. Otherwise, the ravines beside the road here will be our graves, and today next year will be your anniversary."
The two chatted for a while, and Zhao Liangjian's brows gradually furrowed. Wu Yanluo's attitude was blunt and domineering, and his words revealed that he was someone who was not afraid of life and death. He strangled the conversation to death in just a few words, leaving almost no room for recovery.
Zhao Liangjian shook his head, sighed softly, and said: "Hero, leave some smooth way to survive. Everything is easy to talk about. It is not easy to survive in troubled times, so why fight for life and death?"
Wu Yanluo grinned and said: "What a way to survive, are you a fool who waits and doesn't know what to do? Since you are willing to leave this much money to buy a road, there will be a thousand times more wealth in the car." There are not so many idle words, if you don’t give them, your eyes will bleed, and you will end up waiting for results.”
Zhao Liangjian sneered and said, "Oh? Friends come to eat fat meat, and evil dogs come to chew hard bones. If you are not a friend and have chipped teeth, don't regret it."
Wu Yanluo's face became ferocious, and he said viciously: "I've chewed you up with my iron teeth and iron bones."
After Wu Yanluo said this, he waved his hand, and the bandits behind him waved their swords and guns wildly, shouted in unison, and were about to charge.
Zhao Liangjian looked solemn and shouted: "Form a team."
The guards immediately changed their formations, forming a circular formation into a horizontal formation of wild goose wings. The two sides were in a confrontation. Everyone in the escort office held swords and guns, with their shoulders touching, relying on each other to protect the two wings in front.
Liu Chang, who was on the roof of the mule cart, put an arrow into the string, half-drawn his riding bow, and with round eyes, shouted loudly: "We live or die together!"
All the executioners tried their best and responded in a hissing voice: "Both the iron and the blood are here!"
The soldiers pointed their swords and guns in front of them, took a step forward, shook their feet vigorously, and shouted at the same time: "Kill the thief!" Everyone chanted in unison and moved uniformly. After shouting the slogans, everyone's blood was aroused, their fighting spirit was rising, and they were full of heroism. Filling the chest, a dozen people are as powerful as a thousand troops.
Most of the thieves are young people from the local area. Only when they gather a crowd can they become bolder. This would be intimidated by the power of Zhao Liangjian and others, and he couldn't help but feel fear on his face, and felt a little timid in his heart. When his footsteps stopped, the formation looked a little messy.
Wu Yanluo's face suddenly turned livid. He took a step forward, held out the long knife in his hand, opened his eyes, grinned, revealing a pair of jagged black and yellow rotten teeth. He chuckled twice, and then his laughter turned from low to high. , from weak to strong, getting louder and louder, and finally turned into unbridled laughter, the laughter was full of madness and violence.
