Chapter 35: Intrigue and deception are like a theater

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 "Hei Niu, where are the people?" Wang Xie asked in a hoarse voice.

"Just now..." Hei Niu's voice was filled with anger.

Just a moment ago, the guy who left Liu Yaozu was still leading the way for them, but what they didn't expect was that he disappeared in the blink of an eye. "I have seen that he is dishonest. He didn't deliberately trick us into coming in, right?"<

/p>

Wang Xie thought for a while and said: "Probably not. His mother is still in our hands. We will send people to look for him and we must find him."

What happened next made Wang Xie and Hei Niu feel relieved and a little annoyed.

A bandit brought the injured Liu Yaozu back. According to Liu Yaozu, he was walking in a hurry just now and did not notice that the people behind him had not followed closely. He accidentally bumped into the stalactite of the stone wall and suffered a bloody head injury.
Hei Niu picked up Liu Yaozu by the front and said fiercely: "Don't try to play tricks on me. The crossbow and knife in my hand are not vegetarian."

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

Wang Xie squinted at Liu Yaozu. Under the light of the fire, the blood on Liu Yaozu's head flowed down between his fingers. It looked like the impact was serious.

Wang Xie asked: "Let him go, how far is it from the exit?"

"It takes less than a stick of incense!"

"Lead the way!"

After walking another hundred or so steps, Liu Yaozu, who was leading the way, suddenly fell to the ground with a thud without warning. Wang Xie and Hei Niu were startled and thought someone was sneaking up on them in the dark.

Later, when he saw that there was no movement in front of him, he picked up Liu Yaozu, pinched him, and shouted, but he did not wake up.

Hei Niu spat hard: "Damn it, I wanted to keep this stuff to help my brothers do something, but since it's no longer useful, I might as well kill it with a knife!" He said and chopped it with a knife.

Wang Xie reached out to stop him and said in a low voice: "This man must be weak in energy and blood. It doesn't matter. He is almost at the exit anyway. Let him stay here!"

After leading them to the entrance of the secret passage, Liu Yaozu's mission was more than half completed. As for a lady from a wealthy family like Miss Wang, she stood out from the crowd and was not difficult to find. He had already ordered them not to hurt this flower-like jade.

Beauty is.

People like Liu Yaozu should be abandoned like a pair of shoes and left to fend for themselves.

The footsteps gradually faded away, and at the moment when the last light of fire disappeared, a pair of eyes suddenly opened, with a cold light in them.

In fact, Wang Xie was not very urgent about breaking into Wubao from the secret passage. The people in Wubao were already at the end of their strength, and Wang Xie clearly understood this.

In fact, he was not surprised at all by such a result. Even though the defenders had a dozen or so good soldiers brought by Miss Wang, how many nails could they crush if they were made of iron?

The fall of Wubao is only a matter of time.

He and He Deng, one in the dark and the other in the open, seem to have the same goal, but in fact, neither of them is like Xiao Jiujiu.

He Deng has been secretly competing with him. This time, He will suffer a little bit and lose some strength. At the critical moment, I will lead my men to attack again. Only in this way will it appear that Wang Xie, my divine soldier, has descended from the sky!

Song Ziji's team is said to have a large number of people, but people's hearts have never been united. There are overt and covert fights and mutual strife, so the team is naturally difficult to lead.

No one doubts Song Ziji's bravery, but he is too careless and careless. He is very qualified to be a pioneer who rushes forward, but he is not suitable to be a commander.

In the process of constantly recruiting troops, he almost refused to accept anyone who came, which resulted in everyone in the bandit team. Everyone had their own agenda and was making their own little plans. As for avenging the lord and his brother Song Zixian,

The idea is probably only his own.

In the past few years, internal strife, large and small, has occurred dozens of times. Although Song Ziji suppressed them with force, this deep-seated problem has not been fundamentally solved, but has become more and more intense.

Along the way, Wang Xie counted the time. The people he brought with him this time were all capable warriors under the big leader, the elite of the village. Each of them had a knife, a hard bow, and a crossbow.

, such a configuration can be considered a luxury in a cottage.

"It's almost time!" When he heard the report from the front that he was almost at the exit, Wang Xie showed a smile, and it was time to show off his skills.

He seemed to have seen himself leading the people to fight out of the secret passage, and he seemed to have seen the frightened expressions of those in the Wubao when they saw their sudden appearance. If he was lucky, he might be able to control the people in the Wubao without any bloodshed.
At this time, He Dong should still be fighting hard with the defenders on the wall of Wubao. Hehe, this foolhardy man!

"Leader Wang! The road ahead is blocked with bricks and stones!"

"What?" Wang Xie, who was admiring his victory, took a breath of air after hearing this.

Blocked?

Didn't Liu Yaozu say that he just escaped from this secret passage? Why did an extra wall appear in the secret passage in just a short while?

Immediately afterwards, a terrible thought appeared in my mind.

Yes, people in Wubao must have discovered this secret passage. Since Liu Yaozu can discover it, others can naturally discover it too.

Although things have changed, Wang Xie is not too panicked. What should they do if those people find out?

He didn't believe that those people could build a solid wall in a short period of time, and the wall could only be pushed down.

Of course, you have to guard against the other party taking advantage of the darkness to shoot arrows.

When Wang Xie strode forward, Hei Niu and his men had already pushed down the hastily built wall. Dust was flying in the secret passage, making him choke and cough.

Hei Niu patted the dust on his hands and said: "Brother, these goods are in a hurry. Not only are there broken bricks and stones, but also some branches and leaves. The front is now clear, and we can already see the entrance of the cave."

Wang Xie drew the knife in his hand and shouted: "Brothers, put out the torches and follow me out!"

As soon as they launched the attack, a puff of smoke drifted in from the entrance of the cave. When the smoke just started to rise, they were afraid that the other party would jump over the wall and risked launching a fire attack to block them in the tunnel. After sniffing, they smelled the fragrance of rice.

, Wang Xie's heart dropped back into his stomach as he raised his voice.

"Hurry up and eat. The thieves will come up soon and kill them all."

Wang Xie held his breath when he heard the sound of urn and loud voices coming from outside the cave entrance, but he was even more convinced that his speculation just now was correct. It seemed that they did not want to attack with fire, but just wanted to eat early.

The smoke from the kitchen is getting thicker and thicker, and it also carries a faint scent of sandalwood, which makes you feel refreshed after smelling it.

Wang Xie took a few deep breaths proudly. The smell was much better than the dirty air in the secret passage.

Suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened wide. No, the smoke was getting thicker and darker, and it was pouring into the secret passage.

"No, they set fire!" Hei Niu shouted loudly.

"It's not fire...it's not fire. It's smoke...they...they...are setting off smoke..."

The shouts of Wang Xie, who judged the situation most accurately, were quickly covered up by the violent coughs of him and others.

"Cover your mouth and nose, follow me and fight out!" Wang Xie ordered while coughing loudly.

Hei Niu and others were also desperately repeating his orders, but their voices were drowned out by waves of louder coughs.

At this time, Zhou Yihai finally waited for the person he was waiting for. Hearing the sound of coughing inside, he felt a little regretful that the scholar with bad ideas and bad intentions was not there to see him. Hearing this scene, everyone was shocked.

The lady said that boy has another appointment on the city wall.

The entrance to the secret passage has been opened. Under the steps are a pile of dry firewood and the remains of the soul tablets of the ancestors of the Chu family. At this time, they are already burning with a crackling sound. The four bodies are covered with tendons.

Min Zhuang was holding a big wooden board and fanning the smoke into the hole.

The torch that had just been extinguished not long ago was lit again. Wang Xie was extremely anxious at this time. The smoke from outside was pouring in continuously. The original fragrant smell was gone, replaced by a spicy and pungent smell.

Foul smell.

Every time he took a breath, Wang Xie felt as if his trachea was about to be cut. His nose, saliva, and tears all flowed out. This was not the most uncomfortable thing. The most palpitating thing was the dizzy feeling. He felt that he

You can fall at any time.

Hei Niu had already rushed forward with his men. The two henchmen responsible for protecting Wang Xie had one of them holding his own throat with both hands and panting desperately, while the other couldn't stop coughing and huddled up like a big shrimp.

.

Amidst the fire and smoke, I heard bursts of screams coming from the front.

"Brother, there is an ambush outside! Brothers, fight with me and get out..."

That's the sound of the black cow.

Wang Xie roared: "Hei Niu, fight out, you must hold back... Quick, cover your mouth and nose with a wet cloth, and fight out with me..."

What to do if there is no water?

Wang Xie's mind was spinning very fast. Under his leadership, the bandits unbuttoned their belts one after another. Some of the bandits who had no urine held the strips of cloth torn from the sleeves of their robes and cried out in supplication.

They never thought that the filthy liquid would one day be so precious.

The smelly wet cloth was stuck to Wang Xie's mouth and nose, which made him feel a little better. At least he was not as dizzy as before, but the severe coughing was not obvious. He stumbled towards the cave entrance with a knife.

In the direction of the direction, his eyes pierced through the smoke, and he soon saw five or six corpses lying on the ground. Without exception, they were all elites he brought with him. It seemed that they were all injured by the opponent's crossbow arrows.

"Black cow, black cow...where is the black cow? Cough cough cough..."

"Brother... cough cough cough... the black cow is here..."

Finally, Wang Xie discovered the black cow.

At this time, his most capable subordinate was standing on the steps, shooting at the people above with crossbows.

The situation is quite unfavorable to them. The opponent is condescending and can fire crossbows, throw heavy objects, and fan the flames to emit poisonous smoke. However, they can only passively endure it and are almost powerless to fight back.
p>

Before Wang Xie could give the order to retreat, some of the bandits behind him had already turned around and ran back. With the first person, there were second, third, and even more. They ran away like frightened rabbits.

Run back.

Wang Xie turned his head and looked, feeling miserable in his heart. He knew very well that at this time, no matter whether he was scolding or killing people to establish his authority, he was afraid that he could not stop the retreat. After all, there was no way out ahead. Who would not want to stay where he was and suffer the consequences?

.

The smoke is so thick and poisonous that even a strong man cannot bear it.

"Black Bull, retreat quickly!"

Wang Xie was panic-stricken. When he looked in the direction of the cave entrance, Hei Niu clasped his hands behind his neck as if to cut his own throat. The extremely strong body was falling softly, between his fingers.

A crossbow arrow was suddenly revealed...
