The night is lonely and deep, and the chirping of insects and beasts in the mountains and forests adds an aura of tranquility to the dark midnight.
Midnight in the mountains is always colder, but in such a cold night, a team of more than 20 people was quietly groping forward.
"Is this here?" one person asked, looking at the bonfire in front of him, where a dozen detectives were patrolling.
"This is it." A bandit who led the way nodded quickly and responded.
They were the helpers hired by Xie Zhongda. This group of people set out from Luoyang and traveled day and night for five days and five nights before finally returning to Qixia Town.
For the past five days, they had been traveling at night and night. Except for a day's rest in Zuojiazhuang to recuperate, they spent the rest of the time on the road, just for fear that the stronghold would be breached before they returned.
For this reason, they changed horses twice. Although these Jianghu people were somewhat dissatisfied with the bandits' high-intensity rush, they were paid to do things after all, so it was difficult to say anything, especially when the other party said that they could add more money. They had no complaints at all.
Of course, they came here day and night to save people, not to die. So when they arrived at Zuojiazhuang yesterday, Xie Zhongda also arranged for everyone to have a good rest for a day, while he went out to find out the information about Black Wind Ridge.
After his inquiring, he learned that the Black Wind Stronghold had not been breached yet, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In the past few days, he had been having a bad premonition in his heart, and now he could finally feel relieved.
Then Xie Zhongda didn't hesitate. After everyone was almost rested, he quickly led everyone towards Qixia Town.
But what they didn't know was that the current Zuojiazhuang was full of light and dark. When a large number of their carriages entered the boundary of Zuojiazhuang, someone had already reported this information to Xiaoliu on Heifeng Ridge. .
Although they did not enter the town to rest, there were so many carriages that they had no other way to go except the official road.
And since Xiaoliu knew that the other party was from Luoyang, Zuojiazhuang was the place they must pass through, so Xiaoliu had long been angry with Chen Baotou from Zuojiazhuang, and Xiaoliu was everywhere on the official road. Six eyeliners.
. . . . . .
In the dense forest outside Heifeng Village, more than twenty martial arts masters were crouching. After a day's rest today, they were all full of energy.
"Let's go!" After observing for a long time, a big man holding a pair of forks couldn't help but said.
"Don't worry, they said that there are more than 70 people in this group of arrests. We are small in number after all, so we will suffer more if we go hard. Go and ask them to send a signal to let the bandits take action first. Once the bandits take action, we will start from there. Sneak attack from behind, attack from both sides, kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor behind."
"Remember, you must kill them all and leave no one alive, so as not to cause trouble for yourself." A man who clearly looked like the leader of this operation said.
Although everyone is a member of the Jianghu, and usually no one obeys anyone, no one refutes his words at this time. After all, everyone knows that staying alive is causing trouble for themselves. Once they are targeted by the Six Doors, then they No one in this group can escape.
Although they are all members of the underworld, this is the first time they have done such a thing.
"I know!" Everyone responded in unison.
However, there was a voice that took two seconds before sighing.
"Oh, indeed. Don't leave any of them alive. Just kill them all to save yourself from trouble in the future!"
"Yeah." Everyone nodded, but suddenly they felt something was wrong, because the sound didn't seem to come from the side, but more like it came from above them.
Everyone looked up quickly and saw that in the dark night, there seemed to be a figure on the tree, but they could not see clearly in the dark night.
But at this moment, there was only a sound of "Ah!", and a companion beside them suddenly cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
"Ahhh! My eyes!" The man covered his eyes and fell to the ground.
"What's wrong with you?" Everyone helped him up, and someone took a look at it with a fire certificate. They saw that the man's left eye was hollow and bleeding.
But before anyone could make a sound in fear, the person who had just held the fire fold screamed in pain and fell to the ground.
A person next to him quickly supported him.
"What’s wrong with you?"
However, the man was silent. The man quickly checked his breathing, but found that the man was no longer breathing.
At this time, the man felt that his hand holding the other person's back was a little wet, and even though he couldn't see the color of the liquid, he guessed what it was.
"Everyone, please disperse, there is..." Before the man could finish speaking, he became the third person to fall.
However, everyone also knew that there was a hidden weapon master above them, and everyone hid.
In the dark night, everyone looked for cover. With the darkness of the night and the cover of the trees, it was difficult for either party to determine the other's position.
But Xiaoliu on the treetop didn't care, because this group of people had already entered the net, and he just needed to contain them.
But in this night, Xiao Liu was not worried about the problem of vision at all, because since he practiced internal skills, or to be more precise, he practiced this innate skill, he found that his perception ability had become sharper.
Especially this hearing, now he can roughly distinguish the location by listening to the sound.
"Bang!" Another stone was thrown, and a killer who accidentally stepped on a branch was directly hit by the stone, followed by a cry of pain.
"ah!"
Then several more stones were thrown out, and there were repeated cries of pain.
However, Xiao Liu's continuous attacks also revealed his position. There were also several masters in this group of Jianghu people. They also judged Xiao Liu's position based on the direction in which the sound of the stone came from.
"Here!" After confirming the location, one person quickly swung his sword and struck at Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu did not fight with him head-on. Instead, he hugged the tree pole and spun around to avoid the opponent's blade. Then he took advantage of the opponent's sword miss and quickly drew out the sword from his waist.
"Ah!" Only a cry of pain was heard. In the darkness, the strong man was instantly cut into two pieces at the waist, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
"Bang! Bang!"
Hearing the strong man's cry of pain, everyone knew that the strong man was dead.
In just a moment, Xiao Liu killed four of them, but they didn't even touch Xiao Liu's shadow.
Although they had a large number of people, they were not good at fighting at night. In addition, this place was close to the government camp, so only one person suddenly shouted.
"It's a tough idea, let's withdraw first and then talk about it!"
As he said that, the man quickly jumped away from his position. Sure enough, he heard a "bang!" and a stone quickly hit the position where he had just been hiding.
The man thought that Xiaoliu's subsequent attacks would continue to come, so he quickly dodged left and right, trying to avoid possible hidden weapon attacks.
However, after a few consecutive flashes, he found that there was no more sound of pebbles. He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the hidden weapon in Xiao Liu's hand had been used up.
But then, he noticed that the surroundings were brightly lit.
