The mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole.
When the first batch of warriors and the second batch of crossbowmen barely rushed to a place, they found that their number was less than half. After a shout and a burst of arrows, they rushed out of the manor with all their might.
Even though they knew that there was a crossbow waiting for them outside. However, if they didn't leave at this time, they would wait for the people on both sides of the enemy to surround them and then make dumplings. By then, it would be hard to fly.
Although these warriors were not all very skilled, they were also well-trained. Knowing that there were crossbows waiting for them outside, they extinguished all the torches and rushed out at once.
However, all of this seems to be within Ren Cangqiong's calculations.
Suddenly, countless torches flew out from the darkness, illuminating the surrounding area. Some of them were too slow to dodge and were burned directly by the torches.
The intensity of the fire immediately gave the crossbowmen who were ready an opportunity to attack.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Rows of arrows roared from all directions, like a rain of arrows, with a majestic momentum.
I only heard screams from the scene, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, and the frightened birds in the surrounding trees were frightened and flew around, screaming in agony.
Under this round of shooting, large numbers of warriors continued to fall.
The leader of the second batch of crossbowmen knew something was wrong and shouted: "Those who are alive, don't hesitate to charge me!"
Another rain of arrows ended, and now there were only twenty or thirty warriors left. In the darkness, they were busy like a bereaved dog, and anxious like a fish that slipped through the net, and kept rushing out.
They have only one idea: to escape from the Ren family and escape from birth!
However, during the impact, the arrows were like ghosts, everywhere, constantly harvesting the lives of the remaining warriors.
When they finally broke out of the Ren family and came to the main road outside, they counted the number of people and found that there were only twelve people left. Four of them had arrows stuck in their bodies and their wounds were bleeding.
The leader of the second batch of warriors looked around and ordered: "Everyone, rush into the dense forest on the right. If you take the main road, you will definitely die!"
Although this man was in a state of confusion, this consideration was originally very reasonable.
However, he forgot that with one move, he would lose everything.
Ren Cangqiong started planning this game a few days ago, but for the final battle of this game, Ren Cangqiong had other plans.
As long as you rush into such a large dense forest, you are more than 90% sure of escaping with your life. After all, in the dense forest, the row of crossbows will not play much role at all.
In the dark night, those who run away always have more initiative than those who pursue.
Twelve figures rushed out of the road and were about to pour into the dense forest. Suddenly, there was a sound of a gong in the dense forest, and there was a roar above the dense forest, and a huge net that covered the sky directly pressed down on them.
"not good!"
By the time the leader reacted, the giant net had already covered his head.
Twelve warriors were directly stuffed into dumplings.
This giant net was very overbearing. No matter how they struggled and slashed with swords, they could never break it. Instead, the more they struggled, the tighter it became.
…
In the Ren family manor, the old lady, Ren Cangqiong and others, had begun to clear the battlefield. The sixty armed elites of the Ren family on the periphery had also come out of the darkness and begun to assemble.
Sixty people, no casualties!
Although the old lady is full of doubts about everything that happened today, as the head of the family, her responsibility is still the most important at this time.
The battlefield was briefly cleaned, and the enemy corpses had been counted. There were a total of one hundred and eighty-eight enemy corpses.
As for the Ren family, except for the elders who were poisoned, no one was killed or injured!
The captain of the sixty elite warriors came over and reported to Ren Qingshuang: "Miss, we have tried our best, but in the darkness, we still allowed a small group of them to escape."
Ren Qingshuang nodded: "Very good, this group of people is not simple. It will be very difficult to catch them all. You guys prepare, we will go out to catch the alive ones."
"Caught alive?" Everyone was stunned.
After letting those people escape, it would be very difficult to catch up with them, and it would be even more impossible to capture them alive.
Ren Cangqiong smiled and said: "Grandma, they can't leave. Let's go out and have a look. I think they should have been captured easily."
Although the old lady was full of questions, she also knew that today's situation would depend entirely on the two grandchildren, Ren Cangqiong and Ren Qingshuang, to turn the tide.
He didn't say anything at the moment and nodded: "Okay, assign half of the people here to guard the manor. The other half will go and have a look with me."
Next to the main road outside the manor, a giant net tied the twelve remaining warriors together like rice dumplings, as tightly as they could.
In the dense forest, the fire was dim, but no one came out to say hello.
The old lady was used to big battles, and knowing that it was inconvenient for the other party to come out to meet him, she immediately said loudly: "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Your Excellency, the Ren family owes you a favor for what happened today."
Ren Cangqiong smiled slightly but said nothing.
This favor is not that the Ren family owes them, but that they repay the favor to the Ren family.
It turned out that the night before the family evaluation, that is, last night, Ren Cangqiong visited the Beigong family and stayed for a full hour. He secretly met with Beigong Yu and asked him to secretly arrange some people to ambush here and wait for the final result.
A batch of fish slipped through the net.
This series of layouts, using the personnel of the Beigong family as the final chess piece, had actually been planned when Ren Cangqiong first stepped into the Beigong family's mansion.
This was also the reason why he had to use gentle methods when facing the Beigong family. In Yunluo City, the Ren family must have allies, and the Beigong family is undoubtedly the most ideal choice.
On that day, Ren Cangqiong sent a favor to the Beigong family and helped Beigong Yao awaken the seeds of the avenue, in order to cultivate a good relationship.
Only the good causes of that day will lead to the good results of today.
Of course, although the Beigong family contributes, it is not convenient for them to show up. After all, this kind of cooperative relationship must be carried out off the stage.
The inner ghost of the Ren family has not yet surfaced, and the relationship between the Beigong family must not be leaked.
After escorting the twelve prisoners back to the manor, Ren Qiangqiong's high-hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach.
In the manor, the old lady sat on a chair with a solemn expression. After observing for a moment, she said: "Don't worry, everyone, the poison is not fatal, it is just a loose cloud. It will be resolved automatically in a day or two at most."
The pine clouds disperse!
As soon as these three words came out, all the tribesmen changed their colors in shock.
This pine cloud powder is indeed not a fatal poison. But it is colorless and odorless, and the poison is completely undetectable in wine.
Once you take it, your whole body will become weak, unable to gather energy, unable to move, and can only be slaughtered by others.
Think about the situation at that time——
If the old lady really takes it, the result of this battle will be...
No one dared to continue thinking about it.
Everyone knows that if the old lady is plotted, then the entire Ren family will have no chance to fight back!
But, what happened to the sixty family warriors?
These warriors were obviously secretly mobilized from other places. Even the elders of the clan, no one knew about it. Could it be said that all of this is under the control of the family?
Everyone's heart was filled with lingering fear, and their faces were filled with a look of astonishment.
The old lady stared at Ren Qingshuang with stern eyes: "Qingshuang, what is going on? Can you tell me now?"
Ren Qingshuang nodded and glanced at Ren Cangqiong: "Grandma Qi, all of this is arranged by Cangqiong's cousin. Qingshuang is only responsible for cooperating."
"Um?"
The old lady's eyes flickered uncertainly, looking towards Ren Cangqiong with a hint of surprise.
Ren Cangqiong bowed slightly and said in a respectful tone: "Grandma, my grandson has received a piece of reliable information that there is an insider colluding with foreign enemies and intends to poison my grandmother's birthday party tonight -"
When Ren Cangqiong said these words, the expressions of all the clan members changed slightly, and they looked at Ren Cangqiong in surprise.
Even Qiu and Ren Xinghe were dumbfounded. Why didn't they know this news?
Ren Cangqiong's expression remained unchanged and he continued calmly: "My grandson originally wanted to tell the elders of the clan about this news, but when I thought about it, my grandson was so soft-spoken before. If he said it, no one might believe it. If he didn't, he might just alert the snake and make others believe it."
The enemy changed his plan. Therefore, my grandson kept silent and only discussed with Sister Qingshuang..."
There is no need to say more about the rest. Even if it is inferred, it can be inferred.
The old lady listened with fascination. After a long time, she sighed softly: "Qianqiong, you are really a good kid! Dongliu, you have a wife, you have a wife!"
The old lady's tone was full of inexplicable emotions. But everyone could hear that when the old lady said this, there was a sense of remorse and guilt in her tone.
Why did Ren Cangqiong speak so softly? Why did Ren Cangqiong dare not report it to the elders of the clan? Why did Ren Cangqiong dare not confront her grandmother directly?
There is no doubt that Ren Cangqiong has never felt the trust and care from them.
For a moment, the old lady felt that as a grandmother, she owed her grandson too much... too much...
