The development of worldly affairs is often very unexpected, hence the term "turnaround".
No one expected that this group of bandits who came on horseback in the middle of the night were not here to rob, but to give away horses.
"It's true that we are robbers, but there is also a way to robbers! Nanping County suffered a natural disaster. There is a problem with our identity and it is not convenient for us to go to the disaster relief. But at least we can do our best to help." The leader of Tianmazhai.
He said, "So I contacted seven or eight nearby villages and brought all the strong horses we could find. We thought that there is no inn in this area, and you will definitely not be able to find a place to change horses, so we will use these horses."
Let’s make up the numbers.”
There is no need to say polite words when a good man meets a good man. The team quickly changed the horses pulling the cart and set off again under the bright moonlight, heading south.
Before parting, the owner of the horse village told everyone that from here to the south, the green forest heroes are trying their best to collect healthy horses to ensure that the teams can replace horses in time along the way, so that disaster relief will not be delayed!
After the convoy had gone far away, the flames of the torches of the heroes could still be vaguely seen. This light shone not only in the night, but also in the hearts of everyone in the convoy.
"What do you mean by 'justice kills more dogs'? In this world, heroes who are loyal and upright are often gangsters." It was another evening, and Lao Bai was telling stories to everyone in the motorcade again, "Today I
Let me tell you a story about 'fake green forest meets real green forest, Sha Mingde hangs Sha Mingde upside down'!"
"Speaking of which, there is a Western Qin Kingdom to the west of Kyushu. Its people are strong and fertile, and it is rich in all kinds of green forest heroes..."
"Lao Bai, what do you mean by that? Green Forest Heroes are not radishes in the fields, how can they be abundant?" A young escort who knew him well smiled and joked, "Maybe the soil and water there are special, so we sprinkle them into the ground.
With a handful of seeds, what you harvest is not rice and millet, but a forest hero?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Lao Bai also laughed.
After laughing for a while, he explained: "The land in the Western Qin State is barren. As the saying goes, there are many shrews and unruly people in the poor mountains and rivers. There are so many people in the Western Qin State that they farm when the farming is busy and rob when the farming is slack. They can do both their main and sideline businesses. So.
I just said it is rich in green forest heroes."
"There are many heroes in this green forest, so naturally there will be some famous ones, among them there is Sha Mingde..."
Wu Jie was also in the crowd listening to Lao Bai telling a story. This story is similar to "Li Kui meets Li Gui" in Water Margin, but the "gust of wind" Sha Mingde is not the stupid Li Kui, who will be deceived by lies.
The robber who pretended to be his name couldn't deceive him at all. And he was not a cruel and murderous madman like Li Kui. He did not kill the other person, but stripped him naked like a naked pig and used
The rope is hung upside down on the tree to blow the wind.
"Sha is known as 'a gust of wind' by people in the world. Since you have taken my name, you can enjoy the wind for a few days." Lao Bai imitated Sha Mingde's tone and then changed back to his usual narration tone, "Say
After that, the good man rode away on his BMW, leaving only the fat and white Sha Mingde hanging upside down on the tree, crying and shouting, "Master, don't leave! At least leave some money for me."
The cloth covers his crotch!' As he spoke, his work was blown by the cold wind, and it shrank and shrank, almost invisible..."
Everyone in the motorcade burst into laughter again, not to mention how cheerful the atmosphere was.
However, the happy atmosphere did not last long. When the sun set, the sentry horse who was scouting the way came back. His face was very ugly, and even a child could tell that he was in big trouble.
"The good guys who were supposed to be there to meet us and provide spare horses were harmed!" He had no intention of hiding the news, because the news couldn't be hidden at all. "More than forty people and a hundred horses were all destroyed.
!”
This news shocked everyone in the team, and they all came over to ask what happened.
But there was no need to ask, because after the convoy continued moving for a while, they saw the scene of the killing.
It can be seen that these green forest heroes fought hard, because almost every one of them was injured in the front. But their enemy was powerful, cruel, and efficient.
"The opponent has at least four hundred people, including about a hundred archers and heavy infantry, and the rest are cavalry. First the cavalry came from the front. They did not dismount, but just surrounded the best men." A man who is good at it said.
The escort who judged the battle situation through traces restored the scene at that time, "Then the archers arrived. They were also riding horses, and the horses stopped on that side."
He pointed to a place with many horse hoof prints in the distance: "At this time, they didn't take action until the heavy infantry came over. These people also rode horses, and the horses stopped next to the archers."
"After the heavy infantry arrived, those people started shooting arrows, shooting four times in front and back. Then the heavy infantry raised their guns and pressed in... It was a completely one-sided massacre. There was a hero who was very good at light kung fu and was also very powerful. By chance, he rushed in
Out of the siege - you see, he broke out of the siege from here."
He pointed at a certain place. Wu Jie really didn't see anything special about the traces there, but several experienced soldiers and bodyguards nodded in agreement, which showed that the bodyguard was right.
"This hero is really powerful. He can rush out in such a situation! He even killed a cavalryman on the other side, grabbed the horse and ran in our direction, probably because he wanted to deliver a message to us. But he didn't do it after all.
He was able to escape because one of the opponents had an extremely powerful martial arts master who could run faster than a galloping horse. He should have stabbed the horse in the buttocks to make the horse run as fast as possible in pain, but even so
I was also caught up by that guy..."
The bodyguard walked up to a soldier on horseback, used his hand as a sword, and made a gesture: "This man is not only extremely rare in qinggong, but also extremely terrible in martial arts. He waved a sword - or a sword, in short, he only had one move -
Then he chopped this hero into four pieces, including his horse and man!"
This explanation was extremely clear and concise, especially the last "blow", which was even more horrifying. The soldier who was the subject of the demonstration turned pale with fright, and the other people's faces were also ugly.
"It looks like a regular army." Xu Hai said fiercely, "And I'm afraid it's a first-class strong army. Hundreds of strong bows, hundreds of heavy infantry... Humph! The entire Chu Kingdom can mobilize such an army.
There are not many people in the army..."
"Should the convoy continue to move forward?" Shen Yi asked, "The other party is probably coming for us. These heroes only suffered a disaster because they wanted to help us. If we continue to move forward, I am afraid that we will inevitably fight with them."
"Keep going! Nanping County is waiting for our food!" Guan Xiong, the leader of the convoy, Guan Qian, hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision, "Master Shen, you have great martial arts skills. Please go back and give me a gift." letter……"
"This is not possible. Shen has always only asked for a fight on the spot. He has never handed his back to the enemy in his life." Shen Yi simply rejected the request, "What's more, if there is a fight, with me here, the chance of winning will always be higher. A few more points.”
After some discussion, the convoy sent out several young soldiers and bodyguards to rush back and send the news back. The rest of them buried the bodies of these green forest martyrs and rested on the spot, waiting for the people and horses to recover before moving on. .
Wu Jie was originally one of the people who was going to be sent back to deliver the message, but he insisted that he couldn't ride a horse and said that he was good at treating injuries. The team leaders couldn't resist him, so they had to smile bitterly and let him stay.
The atmosphere this evening was a bit depressing, and even the jokes told by Lao Bai failed to elicit the usual laughter.
"Old Bai, are we... going to die?" A younger bodyguard finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice, his voice trembling a little, "It's just disaster relief! Who is so heartless and crazy that he will even harm the people who are providing disaster relief! They Aren’t you afraid of thunder and lightning?”
"I've never seen anything like thunder and lightning in my life." Lao Bai lay beside the grain truck and said calmly, "Instead of thinking about such unreliable things, why not sharpen your knife? When the time comes, I might as well chop off a few more heads, avenge these heroes, and destroy those damn things for God!"
"Then...when do you think they will take action?" Another escort asked with a trembling voice.
"Who knows...but I guess it's quick." Lao Bai pointed to the moonlit Daguan Road in front of him, "Thirty miles further on, you'll reach the pass of Nanping Mountain; after crossing the pass, you'll enter Nanping. County - there is a very large army there. No matter what the origins of those people are, they will definitely not let us arrive at Nanping County safely like this!"
"So, don't ask about this or that, sleep well and concentrate on sharpening your knife. In the world of martial arts, it is easiest to speak with a knife!"
Only half of Lao Bai's prediction came true. When they hit the road the next day, what blocked the road was not the brutal army of unknown origin, but a pile of big rocks.
On the mountain road ahead, who knows who moved many large rocks and trees, piled up like a hill. Most of the people in the convoy are strong and flexible men, and they can climb over it easily and skillfully, but what is the use of people? The grain truck has no legs. It was absolutely impossible to get through. The convoy had no choice but to stop temporarily, and the escorts and soldiers, shirtless and huffing, moved away the wood and rocks to clear the road.
Blocking roads with wood and rocks is a common method used to rob roads in rivers and lakes, but now that trees and rocks have appeared, the army that was supposed to rob roads has not appeared, which is really puzzling.
"They must be hiding in the dark, waiting for us to be exhausted before they come out..." Lao Bai gritted his teeth and cursed, "Those who kill with a thousand cuts! I will kill them a few times more when I take action!"
While Wu Jie nodded in agreement, he summoned up all his strength to help Lao Bai push the blocking stone. At the same time, he had to carefully hide his strength, lest he accidentally reveal that he had strength far beyond that of ordinary people.
As a peak acquired master, his strength alone is greater than the combined strength of ten or eight strong men. If he is not careful, his secret will be revealed.
In fact, it doesn't matter just having great strength. This world is not the earth. People with supernatural powers who have inhuman blood have never been too rare. For example, in the legend, the founding ancestor of the Chu Kingdom was a half-demon with the bloodline of an ancient giant spirit.
His arms were as strong as tens of millions of kilograms. When he led troops to attack Changning City - it was still called Yuancheng at that time - he wore heavy armor and used unparalleled brute force to knock down the gates of this ancient city.
The Qi troops who were defending the city were so frightened that they surrendered one after another.
Compared with that heaven-defying divine power king, Wu Jie's strength is actually nothing. But strength comes from muscles and bones, and muscles and bones come from food. With the strength of ten people, there will definitely be enough food for ten people, otherwise the strength will not be enough.
Where does it come from?
At least masters at the peak acquired level can rely on absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth to replenish physical energy, thus ignoring this common sense. Wu Jie is like this. But it is not convenient to explain this matter, and he does not want to reveal his identity now, so his strength is far beyond that of ordinary people.
Strength and the same appetite as ordinary people are a big problem.
There was no way to increase his food intake. His stomach was only so big, and he couldn't eat more than half a bowl of rice even if he was full, so he had to carefully control the strength of his hands so as not to let others see that he was extremely powerful.
"I didn't expect that it would be so hard to hide one's strength. Now I admire the legendary senior God of War who has been sweeping the Scripture Pavilion in the Shaolin Temple for decades!"
Jasmine, who listened to Wu Jie's story about the sacred monk who swept the floor of the Sutra Pavilion, immediately shook her head: "Master, I'm just sweeping the floor, not moving the rocks."
