The strong bows shot from a distance and the cavalry advanced. In the blink of an eye, the thieves dispersed. Dozens of horsemen rode past with murderous intent. On the hillside, the thieves yelled at each other and threw stones, but they were ignored.
After walking for a few miles, we no longer heard the bandits shouting. The only sound was the sound of insects and beasts. At this time, we were deep in the mountains and there were still nearly a hundred miles of mountain road. There were still many heroes who had opened the camp ahead. For the sake of safety, Chang Yu decided
Don't travel at night, find a wide place to camp.
The guards who scouted the road ahead reported that there was a mountain village a few miles away. Chang Yu ordered everyone to quickly go to the village to repair it and use the village as a camp, which could be defended or attacked.
Nothing happened all night.
At daybreak, everyone got up, washed and had breakfast, and hurriedly packed up and left camp. They scouted the horses ahead to report that there was a large market town ten miles away.
Wande Town.
The midpoint of the mountain road from Jinan to Tai'an is also the largest market town in the mountains, with hundreds of households. There is a market every other day, and people from all over the country come here to make a living. It is very lively.
Today coincides with a big market, and the mountain road is crowded with people. From inside and outside, we can hear the noise, the sound of hawking, the sound of blacksmithing, the wailing of livestock, and even the sound of quarreling and swearing in the street.
Chang Yu and his entourage came on horseback with dozens of horses. The strong men and horses and their murderous aura naturally attracted the attention of the people in the market, who pointed and commented.
There were too many people in the market and the roads were crowded. Kuang Ren led a few people to open the road ahead: "Make way, fellow villagers, make way."
Chang Yu was full of curiosity about the market. He looked around on his horse and saw a game stall reining in his horse to ask for a price. He stuck his head out of the lake in the carriage and said excitedly: "It's so lively, like a temple fair in Jinan."
Chang Yu bought some game, paid the money, and hung it on the saddle. Just when he was about to look at the rest, he suddenly heard a warning signal from the front. He couldn't help but frown, and the guards around him immediately drew their swords and bows to surround him.
In the middle of the market, a shirtless man with a ghost head and a big knife leaning on the ground yelled at Kuang Ren: "You killed Zhensanshan."
"Kill!" Kuang Ren's face was expressionless. A guard next to him shot an arrow. The big man roared and slashed the sharp arrow away with his sword.
Hey, this is a tough one. You have to know that the one who can serve as Chang Yu's personal guard is not one of the toughest soldiers in the world. The one who follows Kuang Ren is a sharp archer. But he can knock the arrow away with his sword at such a close range. That's absolutely
There is skill in hand.
Kuang Ren sneered, took the strong bow from his subordinates, and was about to nock an arrow when suddenly he heard shouts of surprise from all around, and suddenly many big men with guys came out of the crowd in the market and surrounded Chang Yu and his party.
There were more than a hundred people.
The real people were scared and screamed and fled in all directions.
"Good guy, they are well prepared and waiting for us." Chang Yu sneered and looked around. They were all reckless and fierce, and they felt very awesome about themselves.
"I was the one who killed him, what do you want me to do?" Wuzhong clapped his horse forward, drew out his red tasseled sword, raised his hand and pointed at the shirtless man, saying, "Are you here to thank me?"
The man shook his ghost-headed sword in his hand and said: "Kill people to pay debts and pay back money. What kind of brother do you think you are? You are so ruthless. You have done such cruel things to women. Their bodies were separated and abandoned in the wilderness."
Hahaha, Wu Zhong laughed so hard that he almost lost his breath: "Why didn't you think of yourself as a woman when you were robbing your house? Once you entered the green forest, you should have been prepared to abandon your corpse in the wilderness. Is it possible that the three mountains in the town blocked the road and killed me?
I still want to give him away?"
"There are rules in the world of martial arts. A couple from the Three Mountains and Three Mountains who are not as good as others will fall into trouble. But he and I are brothers, and we still have to get back together. Otherwise, we will not be able to survive on the road in the future." The man snorted coldly.
He said: "Today, this brother must give an explanation."
Explain? Wu Zhong laughed angrily: "You are so blind that you asked me to give you an explanation?"
"Could it be that you are officers and soldiers?" The big man's eyes narrowed. It was summer. Tianyu and his party were wearing black single clothes and no armor, but we could still tell the clues from the war horses and standard weapons. Ordinary green forest heroes did not have such good equipment.
.
"So what if we are officers and soldiers? It's not the officers and soldiers' turn to act like grandfathers in this mountain." The big man shouted, and the thieves everywhere shouted and cursed, making the scene a mess.
"I don't plan to be a master in the mountains, but I definitely don't want to be a grandson. Anyone who stops me will be killed." Wuzhong snorted and glanced around: "With just such a small number of people, do you think you can keep me?"
"
"I didn't want to keep you, I just wanted to kill you." The shirtless man raised his hand, and saw more than ten archers appearing on the houses on both sides of the market, with bows and arrows drawn and aiming at Chang Yu and his party in the encirclement.
Mr. Wu curled his lips and shook his head: "Not yet, you can't kill me, and you can't keep me."
"Then you try..." Before the big man could finish his words, he saw a man riding a horse more than ten feet in front of him: "That man, do you need to find a place for Nazhen Sanshan to put yourself in?".
"This is the rule of the rivers and lakes..." The big man opened his mouth when he suddenly heard screams. Then he saw archers on both sides falling off the roof one by one. He was shocked: "You, you, you"
It turned out that it was Li Muxian who had a small discussion with Kuang Ren while Wuzhong was exchanging insults with the big man. He deliberately came to attract the big man's attention. Kuang Ren immediately ordered his men to eliminate the archers.
Kuang Ren's men are all sharpshooters in the army. It is not easy to kill these thieves. He fired his strong bow and eliminated this threat in a few breaths.
"Kill them, kill them!" the thieves around them yelled angrily and were about to swarm them.
"Come on!" Wuzhong shouted: "I don't know whether to live or die."
The big man's face was ashen. His opponent was so cunning that he attacked and killed his archers first. In this way, the opponent had no scruples, and he had little chance of winning with infantry against cavalry.
"But Jianghu is talking about the word righteousness. If this is not the case, I will not be able to hang out in Mount Tai in the future." The big man gritted his teeth and was about to order a fight, but Wuzhong suddenly jumped off his horse.
: "I think you are a man and I will give you justice."
Hei Ergouzi frowned: "How do you say that?"
"You and I fight alone, whether we win or lose, we will only be separated by life and death. If you win, in addition to my life, I will pay another hundred taels of silver, and the matter will be settled."
"What if I lose?" Hei Ergouzi sneered.
"If you lose, you will be dead. I will not hold anyone accountable, but if your people dare to force you to stay, then we will wash this place with blood." Wuzhong said proudly.
"Okay!" Hei Ergouzi punched the ghost-headed sword in his hand vigorously, and shouted to his subordinates: "If I lose, you can disperse and not be held accountable. I can't lose the face of Jiguanshan and let the Taoist laugh, otherwise I will
I will never die with my eyes in peace."
The thieves responded with relaxed expressions, clearly indicating that they had great confidence in their leader.
"Come on" Hei Ergou raised his foot to pick up the handle of the knife, clasped his hands tightly, bent slightly and stared at Wuzhong and said fiercely.
Wuzhong roared angrily and struck with his sword.
Three steps after blood splattered, Hei Ergouzi's body holding the ghost-headed sword fell straight down, and his head rolled several meters away.
Quiet, completely silent.
The thieves around him were stunned on the spot, looking at Hei Ergouzi's body and couldn't believe what they were seeing.
It's not the same enemy!
Wu Zhong returned to the scabbard and glanced at the body: "If you are not a thief, you are my friend." He sighed and got on his horse. He looked back and nodded to Chang Yu.
"Is this your world?"
Chang Yu did not appear in this conflict from beginning to end, but it was thrilling to watch.
"This black man is a very particular person, but there are many treacherous and shameless people in the green forest." Su Jing said calmly beside her.
"So, do you think it's a pity that this black bitch died?" Chang Yu smiled slightly.
"Now that he has entered the Jianghu, there is no regret in killing or being killed, not to mention that he often commits evil crimes after falling into the trap of a bandit." Su Jing shrugged.
Chang Yu and his entourage left. I don't know whether the thieves were moral and kept their promises, or were shocked by the aura of the personal guards. No one stopped them, not even a word.
"This world is a bit sad." Chang Yu had mixed feelings in his heart. Hei Ergouzi lost his life in vain for the so-called righteousness.
"My lord has always hated thieves to the core, why do you still feel compassion for me?" Li Muchian said with a smile.
Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's an indescribable feeling. I always feel that it's not worth it."
