Fu Gujing was overjoyed when he saw this, sparing him the use of a precious talisman, and secretly praised Zhang Daoyou for being clever and able to come up with such a clever way to adapt to local conditions, which helped him block the old thief for a moment.
He used his light body spell to leap up to catch up, stabbed the old man in the back with his sword, and replaced it with other talismans.
Yuan Qi poured into the sword body, illuminating the dark forest with light.
The skinny old man lost his composure, his vision was blurred, there were many obstacles at his feet, and he felt terrified and uneasy.
He turned around and "Ding Dang" received a few moves, and then suffered sword wounds one after another. The two flame talismans exploded and made him panic. After a few moves, he was stabbed to the ground and the black sword in his hand was thrown away.
Fu Gujing was not willing to kill a big fish, stun the old man with one kick, and then use Yuan Qi to cut off the pulse a few times to mend it.
The old man's sorcery skills were barely displayed before he was captured alive.
Zhang Wenfeng had already rolled several feet away to avoid the old man's anger and indiscriminate killing. He was unscathed except for his clothes stained with mud. When he saw Fu Gujing restraining the old man, the corner of his mouth curled up in an arc.
Who says that serious Taoist priests can't use sap to trip up and use dirty tricks?
I am kind, but you are a thief!
In his eyes, all moves that can defeat the opponent are good moves.
He saw two young Taoist priests covered in blood running away from the mountain. There were no black iron tags on their waists. Looking at the movement skills, he could tell that they were not monks. He was studying and selling and also learned some observation experience, and the spiritual eye skills were separated. Too far to see.
Say hello to Fu Gujing: "I'm coming."
With light feet, he holds his sword and intercepts him laterally to the west. He beats the drowned dog and cannot let the bad guy go, lest he harm the world.
Fu Gujing took out a short black rope as thick as a finger from his belt, untied it into three strands and turned it into a long rope, neatly tied the comatose old man into a rice dumpling, and at the same time removed the old man's jaw and limb joints to make him even You can't take the poison when you wake up, let alone harm anyone.
Time is tight, so we can't take care of a detailed search. Everything is quick and quick.
He held the rope on the old thief's back like a bundle of straw and followed Zhang Wenfeng in the direction of chasing the escaped thief.
He was a little worried. If fellow Taoist Zhang encountered a powerful guy charging down from the mountain, he might not be able to deal with it.
By the time he rushed out of the rocky forest, the battle over there was over, and two people were lying dead and injured in the trees.
Fu Gujing gave a thumbs up to Zhang Wenfeng who sheathed his sword. This brother acted decisively, dealt with things appropriately, and learned quickly. When encountering two Houtian realm fugitives like this, the first move would definitely be to kill him with all his strength. , don't think about staying alive or anything.
Otherwise, sooner or later, he will suffer a loss because of his carelessness. The skinny old thief in his hands is a ready example, and he suffered a loss of blood due to carelessness.
When a lion fights a rabbit, it is important to kill it with one blow.
After killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, you can consider leaving the second one alive and have the energy to deal with it.
Zhang Wenfeng also gave a thumbs up and responded, "Brother, you taught me well."
The chase around the hillside was almost over.
The people from the Daolu branch gathered together in twos and threes, either carrying corpses or holding tied living bodies.
They were officials, and the other party was a thief. They had different psychology and momentum, and they also had the advantage of strength. They struck down with one blow and won a beautiful battle, with joy on their faces.
This is not a martial arts competition like in storytelling. Even if the two sides have similar skills, it will only be a matter of life and death in a few rounds.
The thieves on the weaker side were naturally defeated, and no one would do the stupid thing of risking their lives to protect their companions from escaping. This led to a disastrous defeat in which they clearly had the strength to fight, but collapsed at the first touch.
Yun Qiuhe, who was wearing men's black attire, saw Zhang Wenfeng, whose bamboo hat had already fallen off while tumbling, stood halfway up the mountain and raised his hand to greet her, then dropped the knocked unconscious guy in her hand and let the people behind pick it up. rise.
She jumped and ran down, with some blood spattered on her clothes, and said with a smile: "You are here too, are you not hurt?"
She saw that Zhang Wenfeng was in a mess, covered with traces of dirt and moss, and his robe was scratched in several places.
"Fortunately, no injuries."
Zhang Wenfeng patted the dirt on his body. His new Taoist robe, the only one he had ever worn, was scrapped like this. He had a toothache from laughing.
Fu Gujing came over and answered: "Fortunately, fellow Daoist Zhang took action in time and blocked the old thief with all his strength, and almost made the old thief run away."
Yun Qiuhe's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. She recognized the old man. The skinny old man escaped from her hands and his strength was very impressive. At that time, Dean Wu sent a message to her not to pursue him. He estimated that Fu Gujing would intercept him in the middle of the mountain. , the overall situation is the most important thing, and we try our best to capture the other two thieves monks.
This is the tacit understanding between Dean Wu and Senior Brother Fu.
I didn't expect that fellow Daoist Zhang, who was so powerful and had so little cultivation, would dare to single-handedly stop the skinny old man who was desperately trying to escape without getting hurt himself.
"Don't listen to Fellow Daoist Fu bragging about helping me put money on my face. He's coaxing you. Didn't he see how embarrassed I was?"
Zhang Wenfeng adjusted the expression on his face, denied it with a smile, and briefly explained what happened.
There is nothing to hide, everyone is happy when the battle is won, and there is no harm in joking.
He was thinking about rewards for merit after the war, and he should be able to get a share of the pie. He couldn't wear his Taoist robes when traveling, money was tight, and Taoists also had to eat.
Individuals' salaries will have to be paid at the beginning of next month, and water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness.
He couldn't touch the money he was going to use to buy the calf.
Yun Qiuhe gave Senior Brother Fu a roll of his eyes. She had a good impression of Daoist Zhang. He was similar in age to her. He was steady and well-mannered, and his appearance was also good. Last night, she couldn't wait to try the kind of skill that she could learn at a glance. Only with his useless painting skills did he realize Zhang Guanzhu’s hidden secrets.
She smiled and said: "I'm really lucky to have your help. If I didn't escape a thief in the late stage of Huaqi Realm, the case would not be solved satisfactorily. Let's go up the mountain. Principal Wu and the others are waiting on the mountain to interrogate the thief on the spot." It’s strange, how come so many evil spirits gather in this small place?”
Not noticing anyone else, she grabbed two guys on the ground, one dead and one unconscious, and lifted them into her hands.
Yesterday she touched such a disgusting white zombie with her own hands, and today she fought and saw blood, and she didn't feel any discomfort.
Monks are determined and must learn to adapt to any environment.
Zhang Wenfeng walked with Fu Gujing with his hands empty, and the three of them talked and laughed as they climbed to the top of the mountain.
There is a half-old Taoist temple in the middle of the top of the mountain, which is similar in size to the Xianling Temple. The plaque reads "Shengzhi Temple" without inscription. The Taoist temple is surrounded by ancient trees. The houses in the backyard are rows of blue brick and black tile houses. A lot was built.
On the bluestone field in front of Shengzhi Temple, there are two piles of men and women. The pile on the left is dead, lying mutilated on the ground with blood flowing everywhere. On the right is the thieves who were injured, knocked unconscious or surrendered and lying on the ground.
Wu Qianping was assigning manpower to treat the wounded on his side, and also arranged for a few people to stop the bleeding of the injured by the thieves. There were also several corpses arranged neatly, covered with white cloths. They were obviously companions who died in the battle of Daolu Branch.
Wu Qianping didn't feel surprised to see Zhang Wenfeng, Fu Gujing and the others coming together.
This group of thieves provoked Guanzhu Zhang, and Guanzhu Zhang also killed the thieves' people. The feud between the two parties has become so big that it is impossible to resolve it. It is reasonable for Guanzhu Zhang to come and help in order to protect himself.
He did not expect the thief to be so powerful. In the brief letter sent to Fu Gujing, he did not specially invite Zhang Guanzhu.
After interrogating Fu Yuan Wai and his family members, it was discovered that there was something wrong with Fu Yuan Wai's newly married concubine who was from a theater troupe.
After being tortured and interrogated, they learned that the concubine was a chess piece arranged by the thieves to seize the wealth of the rich man's wife. He confessed that there were usually more than ten people on Jiming Mountain, but he did not say that there were three thieves and monks in the thieves' nest.
Fortunately, in order to prevent any of the thieves from getting away, he specifically asked the county government and the city guards to borrow fifteen good men. In addition, almost all the fifteen men from Daolu Branch were able to find it from the back mountain without even knowing it. Mountain top.
In a surprise attack, they defeated more than forty people who were unsuspecting in the thieves' den and won a great victory.
There is some luck in this. Of course, only half of the thieves' den are actually capable of fighting, and the rest are mostly women and children.
Wu Qianping clasped his fists and smiled heartily: "You have worked hard, Daoyou Zhang. This case can be handled smoothly. That painting of yours is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Haha, you have made a great contribution to our Daolu Branch. When the battle situation is sorted out, I will ask for a reward from above." "
The words must be spoken openly and cannot be hidden, especially when it comes to rewards.
There will definitely be many times in the future when we need to rely on the other party's efforts.
