Beside the small river, dozens of bonfires were lit, and an elite army of less than 500 people began to set up a simple and small camp.
It was blocked by the surrounding hills and shrubs, and it was evening, and the sky had darkened. It would be difficult for the scouts to find a group of people here if they didn't climb up and take a look.
"How is the fighting situation in Tonghe City?" Qiu Tong threw a piece of dead wood into the fire and asked.
There are women around this bonfire, and the Black God is also eating and drinking here.
Gongye Wuyin looked at the venison grilled on the fire and said: "Xiaobai said that there is still a confrontation over there, but some troops have already begun to dig traps and build camps in the rear. It seems that the Chu army is planning to withdraw."
"Gu Gu——" Because he heard his name, a gray owl standing on the stone next to him turned his head, but his body did not move at all.
This owl has a small tuft of white hair on its head, so it is called Xiaobai by Gongye Wuyin.
"It's really convenient to be able to understand animal language." Qiutong said enviously.
"These little guys can be quite annoying sometimes." Gongye Wuyin's eyebrows were crescent, he gently touched a falcon lying next to him and said with a smile.
"Tululu - eh." Black God, who was lying not far from the bonfire, turned his head and spat to one side, and then hissed in Qiutong's direction.
"Pfft--" Gongye Wuyin couldn't help laughing.
"What did Black God say just now?" Qiutong asked curiously.
"——It says you are too fat, much heavier than General Deer."
"Black God! Please beat me!"
Qiutong became angry and raised his hands to strike. Seeing that the situation was not going well, Heishen rolled on the ground, then used only one front horse leg to exert force, and then jumped up and ran away towards Lu Wu - his huge body was flexible Like a monkey.
Qiu Tong has practiced kung fu to a state of returning to her original nature. She looks like she has even bones and flesh, but in fact her body density is far higher than that of ordinary people. She is nine feet tall, has broad shoulders and a thick back, and her weight alone exceeds 250 kilograms.
What's more, the five-feathered phoenix ax she usually uses weighs 139 kilograms, which is heavier than Lu Wu's Qinglong Naohai Halberd. Coupled with the fine armor gifted by the King of Wu, it weighs more than 450 kilograms at least.
Although the war horse she usually rides is considered a good horse, it can carry her for a short-distance charge, but it will be difficult for her to carry her for a long-distance charge.
Among the horses carried by everyone this time, only the Black God could carry her for a long distance.
Gongye Wuyin is Gou Chen's best friend. He is born with miraculous abilities. He does not come through cultivation. He is a strange person.
This time Gou Chen invited him to help. This woman was more than seven feet tall, with phoenix eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, and an oval face. She was extremely beautiful. It was said that she was a descendant of Gongye Chang. She could understand the language of animals and was good at controlling strange beasts and spirit birds.
The group of them left Chengdu and had a smooth journey for the first hundred miles. This was because the four alien falcons from Gongye Silent Band fought in the air and sent messages to the flying eagles and pigeons at each level in Chengdu.
However, there were too many flying eagles and pigeons flying out from Chengdu to send messages. Gongye's silent falcons were so full that they couldn't intercept them all, so they had to fight all the way over.
Of the 500 elites that Lu Wu brought to Chengdu, there are now more than 470 left, and only a dozen of them were killed along the way.
There are still more than ten people who are seriously injured and unable to move. Lu Wu's masters from the martial arts industry find local acquaintances and spend a lot of money to place them in the gangster den of the acquaintance's green forest hero.
Lu Wu carried the head of the Chu King Xiang Brigade with him. It was normal for him to be intercepted and killed. If he insisted on talking nonsense about not abandoning or giving up, then he would want these seriously injured people to die on the spot - everyone is old. Jianghu, not only can't you win people's hearts by doing this, but it will make people sick.
Everyone gathered around the campfire and chatted while waiting for the meat grilled on the campfire to become cooked.
The sky turned completely dark.
At this moment, a figure walked out from the top of a hill in the distance. He put his hands behind his back and looked down at the camp.
"I, Gongsun Boyang, would like to invite General Lu to come here."
The person is far away, but the voice coming from him is clear, as if he is talking next to him.
"Grandmaster Gongsun!" Someone jumped up in shock.
There was a commotion in the whole camp, everyone picked up their swords and crossbows, and the soldiers hurriedly put on their armor.
In the shadow of the famous tree, Gongsun Boyang is the only martial arts master in Chu State. His status in the world is as high as Mount Tai and Beidou. If he really stamps his foot, the whole world of Chu State will tremble.
It's just that this person has always been very arrogant and rarely gets involved in the affairs of the world. If it is not a national event, not even the king of Chu can invite this person.
"Is it you? Are you here to kill me?" Lu Wu's voice sounded in everyone's ears, quieting the somewhat turbulent camp.
"Yes, since General Lu dares to go to Chengdu to assassinate the king in person, he should be prepared to be intercepted and killed."
"I understand, you come down and kill me."
"I don't dare. I'm old and frail, and I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the attack and killing by General Lu's tiger and wolf warriors." Gongsun Boyang said calmly.
"Then how do you kill me?" Lu Wu said.
Gongsun Boyang said: "Since General Lu is willing to assassinate General Lu as a fighting general, it is not a shame for me to assassinate General Lu's parents, relatives and important officials."
"If General Lu doesn't want me to do this, please ask General Lu to come over alone and fight me in a duel. Life or death depends on one's destiny."
After hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the camp changed.
What a master of martial arts, if he really lets go and carries out an assassination, even a big shot like Wu Guogong Zi Yuan, who is about to ascend to the throne of Wu King and is surrounded by expert guards, will not be able to escape death.
"A martial arts master duels with a military general? Gongsun, why don't you say that each will lead an army to a decisive battle on the battlefield?" Qiu Tong's voice sounded.
Although it was not as natural as the voices of Gongsun Boyang and Lu Wu, it was better than the voices that were loud enough that everyone in the camp could hear them.
"If General Lu hadn't single-handedly broken into the palace to assassinate the king, I wouldn't have had the gall to make such a request. Even if I had done it myself, I wouldn't have been able to do what General Lu did and rush in and out of the palace as if he were in an uninhabited land. ——From this point of view, General Lu is probably still above me, so why not fight on equal terms?" Gongsun Boyang said calmly.
Qiutong was speechless.
Her current vision is no longer the same as when she was a girl for Lu Wu, so she naturally knows that what the other party said makes sense.
Even a martial arts master would never be able to rush into the palace and kill the king.
"Forget it - Mr. Lu has long wanted to see what it would be like for a martial arts master to attack with all his strength. Last time the old gentleman retreated halfway, Mr. Lu was quite regretful."
"Hahaha, I will go all out this time and make General Lu happy." Gongsun Boyang's voice was still calm and gentle, as if he was talking to an old friend.
"Hahaha, I hope so!"
Lu Wu didn't wear armor either, so he flew up. He stretched out his hand in mid-air, and the heavy Qinglong Naohai Halberd flew up and fell into his palm. If he could release his true energy, he could capture objects from the air, but he could capture objects from a distance. A person who can lift a heavy halberd weighing more than a hundred kilograms from a distance of more than ten feet is rare in the world.
The Black God leaped into the air, caught his master in mid-air, and when he landed, he let go of his four hooves and headed straight towards the hill where Gongsun Boyang was.
