Chapter 1947 Going up the mountain and encountering an ambush
Chapter 1947 Encountering an ambush on the mountain
Erbao Mountain is located in the southeast of Liang County, only a dozen miles away from Liang County.
Gu Yuan and the others hurried along, but within half an hour they had arrived at the foot of Erbao Mountain.
At the foot of Erbao Mountain, if you look up, you can see the mountainside of Erbao Mountain. There are countless torches shining brightly, and the place is illuminated brightly.
Without anyone else having to tell them, the three of them knew that this was where all the heroes gathered to compete for the elixir Qingxuan Mu.
Climbing mountains at night may be difficult for ordinary people.
But for Gu Yuan and the three of them, it was basically the same as during the day.
They didn't even need to light a torch, just relying on the silver light of the moon to climb all the way up.
"careful……"
A strong gust of wind roared in, and Gu Yuan, who was walking behind, quickly threw himself forward, rolling aside a few steps with Yi Wu.
A sharpened piece of thick wood swung over from the side, which was exactly where Yi Wu stood before.
If Gu Yuan hadn't jumped forward alertly, Yi Wu would have been hit by the sharpened wood and his head would have been badly bruised.
After Yi Wen rolled down and avoided the wood, he was suddenly shocked.
While he kept looking around, being cautious, he slowly moved closer to Gu Yuan and Yi Wu.
"Are you guys okay?"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"We're fine, but you have to be more careful! What should you do if you're getting careless every day?"
Yi Wu spit out the sand in his mouth, stood up behind Gu Yuan and Yi Wen, opened his mouth and shouted questions around him.
"Why don't you hurry up, little rat..."
Before Yi Wu could finish speaking, a large number of torches suddenly appeared in the surrounding woods.
"You are lucky to have escaped the trap we set."
"But next time, you won't be so lucky!"
In the woods, three people emerged from the crowd, walked up to Gu Yuan and the others, and revealed their faces.
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man standing among the three people.
The leopard in this life has a head, wide ears, a beard, and looks fierce.
One of his eyes is probably blind and is covered with a black eyepatch.
Listening to this man's words, Gu Yuan and the others immediately understood that the sharp wood that almost hurt Yi Wu just now was a trap set by this man.
Not long after we went up the mountain, we encountered a trap. The mountain was probably full of traps.
Seeing Gu Yuan and the other three with gloomy faces and silent words, this man didn't care.
He just set up a trap to plot against someone. Even if he talks to someone now, it is normal for them to ignore him.
He stared at one eye and used the light of the torch to look at the faces of Gu Yuan and the others.
Then he threatened again.
"Looking at you, you probably want to go up the mountain to fight for the elixir Qingxuanmu, right?"
"Listen to my advice, just go down the mountain obediently and don't go up the mountain again."
"Otherwise, we brothers don't mind letting you become a pile of minced meat in the mouths of wild beasts in the mountains tonight."
As soon as the man finished speaking, the torches in the woods immediately dispersed, like sparks in the dark night, surrounding Gu Yuan and the three of them.
The one-eyed man thought to himself that it would be best if Gu Yuan and the other three could retreat despite the difficulties. If they refused to listen to dissuasion and insisted on going up the mountain, they would have no choice but to take action.
Looking at the mob in front of them, Gu Yuan and the others didn't take it to heart.
Gu Yuan made a rough calculation in his mind and found that there were at least twenty people surrounding them, but they were all ordinary martial arts practitioners with little cultivation, so it was not difficult to deal with them.
In the forest, men holding torches gradually gathered around Gu Yuan and the others.
Seeing this situation, Yi Wu not only didn't feel nervous, but actually laughed out loud.
"You want us to give up going up the mountain just because you are crooked?"
"It's such a dark night, why are you daydreaming?"
Yi Wu's words made the one-eyed man who spoke before his face darken.
"It's hard to persuade those who want to die. Since you are seeking death yourself, don't blame me for being ruthless."
As he spoke, the one-eyed man waved the big knife in the direction of Gu Yuan and the others. Seeing that the three of them were unmoved, the one-eyed man said sharply:
"What are you still doing?
Give it all to me..."
After giving the order, all the men holding torches around them immediately stepped forward, raised their weapons, and rushed towards Gu Yuan and the others.
Facing this ragtag group of people, Gu Yuan and the other three immediately formed a circle around the city, back to back, and faced the outside world in unison.
As soon as they fought, the one-eyed man immediately realized that his men could only get beaten in front of Gu Yuan and the others.
The one-eyed man gritted his teeth and ordered the other two men who were always following him.
"Second child, third child, leave the other two to you, I will deal with the leader."
After saying that, the one-eyed man roared angrily, held the big knife in his hand, and charged towards Gu Yuan to kill him.
"call……"
The big knife in the one-eyed man's hand struck Gu Yuan's head.
Gu Yuan kicked the guy in front of him away and slapped his palms upwards.
The one-eyed man's sword was stuck in Gu Yuan's hands. No matter which direction the one-eyed man exerted force, the sword was firmly controlled by Gu Yuan and could not move.
"Let me go..."
The one-eyed man roared angrily and kicked Gu Yuan violently.
Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows, still holding the big knife in the one-eyed man's hand tightly with both hands.
Facing the one-eyed man's kick, Gu Yuan deftly turned his waist, and the one-eyed man's big foot immediately missed the kick.
It's disrespectful to come back without reciprocating. Taking advantage of the one-eyed man's kick, Gu Yuan suddenly kicked him diagonally.
"boom!"
Gu Yuan kicked the one-eyed man hard in the waist and abdomen with a side kick. He immediately kicked the one-eyed man until he screamed in pain.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Before the one-eyed man could react, Gu Yuan took turns attacking with both feet.
The one-eyed man was confused for a moment and forgot to let go of the sword in his hand. He was restrained by Gu Yuan and was kicked from the side several times by Gu Yuan.
"boom!"
Gu Yuan finally let go and gave up control of the big knife in the one-eyed man's hand.
He kicked the one-eyed man in the stomach, sending the one-eyed man flying straight away and hitting a tree trunk not far away.
"puff……"
The one-eyed man opened his mouth and spat out, and a large mouthful of blood mixed with minced internal organs spurted out.
"Cough cough, cough cough cough..."
"Brother..."
The one-eyed man twitched several times, vomited blood and died, causing all the men who surrounded Gu Yuan and the three men to cry out in grief.
But before they could attack and avenge the one-eyed man, two more figures flew out one after another.
Yi Wu dealt with the third child in the one-eyed man's mouth, clapped his hands disdainfully, and sneered at the remaining people around him.
"Hey, a bunch of rabble actually want to stop us."
"Your eldest brother is dead, why don't you get out of here..."
