After a while, the water boiled. Chang Yu took the pot to the door of the house to let the mountain breeze cool it down. He accidentally discovered why there was another lamp outside the door, so he curiously asked the old man: "There was a lamp hanging just now, why did it come again?" Is there something special about having an extra lamp?"
"No, there's a lot more details here." The old man said with a serious face, "You are two people, so of course you need to light two lights."
Chang Yu couldn't help laughing: "According to what you said, if you pass by ten, eight or dozens of people, you have to light the same number of lights." He glanced at the room and said, "I never saw you have so many." Light."
"Then you are right. The more people there are, the more lights there are. If you don't believe it, just look." The old Taoist said and pointed outside the house. Chang Yu and Jiang Fa looked curiously in the direction he pointed. The entrance to the mountain temple is the mountain road. To the east is the river, and there is nothing in the darkness. When I was wondering, I caught a glimpse of light in the corner of my eye, but there was a light on the road in the direction I came from, getting closer and closer. I was wondering, could someone else be traveling at night? Then I discovered that there were also fires in the woods on the hillside behind the mountain temple, and then I discovered that there were also light spots directly south of the road...
No matter how stupid Chang Yu is, he still knows that something is fishy and he is being tricked.
Jiang Fa immediately turned around and entered the house to capture the old Taoist, but there was no one else in the house!
It's so weird that someone who was in the house just now has disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Could it be that he really encountered a mountain spirit or something? Jiang Fa suddenly broke into a cold sweat, but Chang Yu didn't believe it. After walking around the temple, he found that there was a hole in the corner of the wall behind the mountain god statue. That old Taoist was Got out from here.
"It seems that the young master's luck is not very good today." Jiang Fa sighed, pulled out his knife and walked out. Chang Yu snorted coldly: "It's hard to say who has bad luck."
The green bird came out of its sheath, murderous intent burst out, and even Jiang Fa felt his hair stand on end.
At this time, more than ten torches outside were in front of us, surrounding the small mountain temple. However, when Chang Yu and Jiang Fa left the temple, the surrounding people suddenly screamed, they have knives, how could they have them? knife……
Immediately, these flames retreated for about ten steps, which made Chang Yu and Jiang Fa very puzzled and felt a little strange.
The two men stood back to back with knives to prevent someone from attacking from behind.
In fact, Chang Yu was still very nervous at this time. In addition to Jiang Fa's injuries, he was also afraid of sneak attacks from hidden arrows even though it was dark and he didn't know the depth of the enemy. "Come here, you idiot!" Chang Yu shouted, and the people around him shouted in surprise. There was no sound immediately, and no one dared to speak to him.
Chang Yu and others were impatient and were about to kill him and leave when a man coughed in the darkness: "We seek wealth without harming our lives. Leave the silver and the three horses and leave quickly."
Bah, Chang Yu said with a fierce look on his face: "I will work hard to pull out the hair of an iron rooster. If you have the ability, just come and get it."
"I never expected that you, a Taoist priest, would fall into the trap of a bandit and be an informant." Jiang Fa's hearing was different from ordinary people, and he recognized that the speaker was the Taoist priest from the Tu Tu Temple before: "This Tu Tu Temple is actually your hideout." .
"Jiang Bashi, haven't you figured it out yet? He is a bastard Taoist priest." Chang Yu sighed: "He is just a fake." Only then did Jiang Fa realize. No wonder he had called himself Xiaolaoer before. In Chang Yu's case, After calling him Taoist priest, he changed his name to Pindao.
Hahaha, the man chuckled: "It doesn't matter whether you are a Taoist priest or not. What matters is your life. If your life is gone, you have nothing. It's not worth it to lose your life for something external."
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you have the guts, come here to get it." Chang Yu smiled ferociously. At this time, the murderous intention in him reached the limit. It only took one introduction to explode. At this moment, Jiang Fa gave him a slight tug. At the hem of his clothes, he said to the man: "What you said is not unreasonable. We are just entrusted by others to send a few horses. There is no reason to lose our lives for three horses. You can take care of them yourself and leave."
With that said, he pulled Chang Yu to leave.
Jiang Fa had his own considerations for this move. At this time, he was surrounded by enemies, and he was injured. He was worried that it would be difficult to take care of Chang Yu Zhouquan, so he wanted to jump out of the encirclement first and then turn around.
Chang Yu and him had a good understanding, and if they could outwit each other, they wouldn't need to fight hard. After all, the situation was really unfavorable to them. The two of them were fighting against each other in vain. If they had hidden arrows, one careless move would result in death or injury.
"Wait a minute," the Taoist shouted coldly, "The horse is here, but the money is here."
"As for the money, keep the money." Seeing the two men suddenly frightened, the people around them shouted, their morale rising.
Chang Yu frowned: "Do we look like wealthy people?"
"Wearing coarse clothes does not look like a rich person, but being generous is showing off. Young man, don't you understand that wealth should not be exposed? Since it is exposed, just keep it." The old Taoist sneered, Chang Yu picked Eyebrow: "You have seen that I have been generous, and when did you show your innocence again?"
"I have never seen Pindao, but some people have seen him." The man started calling himself Pindao again, and Chang Yu sneered: "That person must have made a mistake, or you stopped the wrong person. I am poor and useless, but I really have money. You can't eat and drink a lot of fish and meat all the way, didn't you see that you were just eating dry food?"
When he said this, the old man really muttered. He just saw Chang Yu driving the car with Wo Wotou in his hand. He was boiling water and preparing to eat dry food.
"Yes, it's the two of them, I can't be mistaken." At this moment, a voice sounded, and Chang Yu suddenly got goosebumps: "Good guy, it's you! Your father said that you are doing hard work for others outside. I don’t want to work part-time as a bandit.”
"Perhaps, I've known about it for a long time." Jiang Fa sneered, and he naturally heard it. The person who just spoke turned out to be the son of the family they stayed at last night!
"You, you heard wrong, I'm not him..."
Chang Yu sneered and said nothing. The old man stopped him and his voice became cold: "Originally I just wanted to steal money, but now I want to silence you. Boy, you asked for this. Come on, brothers!"
But after hearing his order, more than a dozen flames approached, and Chang Yu's face showed a ferocious smile: "Jiang Bashi, they asked for this!"
"Then they are really unlucky." Jiang Fa sneered and tightened his grip on the steel knife in his hand. He was willing to give up. He also sighed secretly that the young governor still lacked experience in the world. Although he had heard the identity of the other party just now, he should not have called him immediately. Broken.
But I can't control that much right now. A dozen bandits will do the job, and the most they can do is get a few more stabs.
The aperture became smaller and smaller, and more than a dozen torches slowly surrounded Chang Yu and Jiang Fa on three sides on the mountain road. Only one side facing the river behind them was deserted.
At worst, they jumped into the river and escaped later. Chang Yu and Jiang Fa looked at each other. They had a tacit understanding that they could tell each other's thoughts with just one look. It was strange that these people could keep their composure and slowly surrounded them without rushing to take action.
Why is this?
As soon as he had this idea, Chang Yu suddenly noticed something was wrong. At this time, the bandits holding torches around him were only six or seven steps away from him, and they could vaguely see each other clearly through the firelight.
They all had their faces covered!
Uh... There are no serious bandits these days who are masked. Even those who go to rob houses are rarely masked. After all, there are no cameras or cameras these days. They are afraid of who is watching. Professional players have no scruples at all. Only a few of them are. Only the kind of charlatans and assassins wear masks.
But what made Chang Yu feel the weirdest was their weapons.
Some of these people hold hoes, sickles, manure forks, hooks... It can be said that almost all of them are agricultural tools. There is no decent weapon. The only closest thing is a woodcutter.
Chang Yu immediately realized a key point: they were a group of amateur bandits!
An old Jianghu like Jiang Fa also reacted instantly. The two of them couldn't help but smile at each other and relaxed their whole bodies.
No wonder they made a fuss when they first saw two people with swords. Apart from not doing their homework well in advance, they were also scared. No wonder they were about to take action, but the thunder was loud and the rain was light. The people who surrounded them just refused to rush forward, and they were all afraid of who would come first. Who is the first to be hacked to death! After all, it is not a big problem for amateur players to scare people into fighting, but if they kill people with a knife, they are afraid.
