Chapter 123 A friend comes from afar
On the top of the hillside in the woods, a handsome young man in black leather was fiddling with the repeating crossbow in his hand. From time to time, he aimed imaginary shots in the direction of Ye Chen and the others, but the repeating crossbow in his hand never fired the crossbow arrow that was already on the string.
.
After a while, a cry came from behind him: "Master, we have encountered a tough situation this time. None of the dozen of us are any match for those people at the bottom of the mountain."
The man in black leather clothes did not look back at the masked man running up, and said slowly: "Withdraw, we can't do this job."
The rugged man wearing a large mink hat next to the man asked doubtfully: "Master, we still have dozens of brothers behind us who haven't moved. Why are we retreating?"
"Yes, the boss, let me take my brothers to fight them again. I'm sure I can win this time, and they have a lot of money in their hands!" said the silly big man.
The man in leather clothes turned his head and rolled his eyes at the silly big man who was breathing heavily from exhaustion and said, "I think your scar has healed and you have forgotten the pain. Have you forgotten how you were kicked off the carriage just now?"
Only then did the stupid man remember Hu Jie on the carriage, his eyes widened and he said, "Master, the person who kicked me on the carriage just now is the leader who was robbed of the grain cart by our brothers yesterday."
The man in leather clothes turned around and slapped the stupid guy on the head, almost knocking off his hat. The stupid guy asked in confusion: "Master, why did you hit me?"
The man in leather clothes tried to get up and kick him, but he was so frightened that he stepped back and quickly laughed and said: "Master, I was wrong."
"Go away, they are the same group you robbed yesterday. Why didn't you tell them earlier? They were obviously prepared." The man in leather jacket pretended to be angry.
The leather-clad man known as the Big Boss is Wuliu. He is a local. After returning to his hometown a few years ago, life was difficult. In desperation, he took several strong men from the same village to the mountains to become bandits. After several years of development, his power gradually changed from a gangster to a gangster.
The small hilltop with only a few people has developed into the big village it is today, but the strange thing is that the money is stolen and the money is stolen. No one is hurt. Even if one's own men are injured, the brothers are not allowed to kill. At most, they will beat the other side if they catch them.
He was very generous to his subordinates and never bullied the nearby villagers. Therefore, most of his subordinates who came from poor backgrounds highly respected him.
At noon, I turned around and looked at the three people leisurely and contentedly at the bottom of the mountain.
There was an indescribable sense of danger in his heart, and he couldn't tell what the specific problem was for a while. For the sake of the safety of the brothers behind him, Wu Liu ordered everyone to return to the village immediately.
Behind a big rock not far from the hill, Zou Hu and Mei Zheng were lying on the ground, one on the left and the other on the right, quietly watching every move on the top of the mountain. Zou Hu turned his head when he saw the man in black leather clothes preparing to retreat.
He said to Mei: "Brother Mei, go back and inform the boss. I will continue to follow. We must find their lair today!"
She smiled charmingly and said, "You go ahead. In terms of following you, few of you are my opponents. The important thing is more important. Besides, I can't command the dozen or so brothers you brought."
Zou Hu couldn't resist him, so he had to retreat slowly, while Mei Ze calmly followed the people who were about to return to the village.
At the bottom of the mountain, Ye Chen was playing checkers with Hu Jie. Suddenly a small spherical paper ball hit the chessboard. Ye Chen opened it slowly and calmly. There were only a few gray circles on it. After reading it, Ye Chen whispered
: "They want to escape!"
Ye Chen put his hands on his back and made a chasing gesture. Zou Hu, who had never appeared and was hiding behind a tree on the side of the path, immediately understood what his boss meant, and then turned around and ran in the direction of Mei.
Hu Jie said with a puzzled look on his face: "Boss, there are just these few small circles, how do you know they are going to escape?"
Ye Chen smiled and said: "The mountain man has a clever plan, but you, a thick old man, know nothing about it."
After climbing over the hill, what comes into view is Heijishan Mountain, which connects Gyeonggi-do, Annan-do, and Liaodong-do. Heijishan is not as big as Daeyusan, but it will take two or three days to walk around it.
.
What Mei didn't expect was that the camp of this group of bandits was actually set up on the top of the mountain. Although the place was not big, it should be able to accommodate three to four hundred people without any problem. Mei watched the man in leather clothes run directly into the camp with everyone, and the camp was
The door was closed immediately. Since he was not sure of the true strength of this group of bandits, he did not dare to rush in. If someone set up a secret sentry outside the camp, he would probably be discovered before he even entered the camp, so
He could only lie quietly in the grass where he was, observing the situation in the village and waiting for the arrival of Ye Chen and others, because he had left his unique mark along the way.
Originally, Ye Chen and Hu Jie were having a good time playing chess, but Ye Chen and others did not pretend after knowing that the gangsters had escaped.
Feeling interested, they took out their long knives from the carriage, and then the three of them left the carriage and ran straight in the direction of Mei.
In the Juyi Hall in the camp, the stupid man took off the black cloth covering on his face, took out the letter Ye Chen handed him from his arms, and said: "Master, this is the order given by the man named Ye Chen just now.
I forwarded it to you."
Wu Liu was so angry when he heard what he said that he wished he could throw the stupid guy off the mountain right now. Wu Liu stared at his big angry eyes and said: "Big guy, next time, can you finish your sentence at once.
"
The silly guy said aggrievedly: "Just when I was about to tell you, Master, you hurriedly asked the brothers to evacuate. I thought to myself that I wouldn't rob them anyway. Fortunately, it won't be too late to tell you when I get back."
Wu Liu's unplaced hand slapped the tea table next to him heavily, and said: "If I don't obey anyone, I will obey you. You will be my brother from now on!"
"I don't dare!" The silly big man was actually a little embarrassed.
"Ganggungun, I see you are so angry!" Wu Liu waved his hand impatiently.
The old man who looked like a military advisor stepped forward and asked, "Master, what does the letter say?"
Everyone is looking forward to Noon Liu's answer.
"The letter claims that he is from the Anjiang Association of Annan Road and wants to come and visit us." Wu Liu continued: "It seems that we grabbed the wrong food. This is a bit tricky."
The old man said: "I have heard about this Anjiang Society. It has only emerged in the past six months. It is very powerful. I heard that the Qinglong Gang on Annan Road was wiped out by them overnight. Their strength should not be underestimated."
After hearing this, Wu Liu was silent and fell into deep thought. After a while, a little brother ran in from the door and said with fists in his hands: "Master, three people came from outside the village. They said they were from Anjianghui and came to visit the master with gifts.
"
"Damn, you came here so fast. How did they know we were setting up camp here?" asked a big man.
Wu Liu said: "You can't escape by hiding. Let's go and meet this dragon crossing the river together!"
Outside the cottage, Ye Chen, Hu Jie and Zhen leisurely observed the surroundings of the stockade. It seemed that what they were about to see were not bandits, but old friends whom they had not seen for many years. However, the bandits on the upper floors of the cottage city were all as if they were facing formidable enemies.
