Liu Xiu held Dou Rong hostage and slowly retreated with his soldiers. Ju Guuba was wary of the relationship between Dou Rong and Wang Yi and did not dare to charge rashly. He could only lead his troops to follow closely behind.
One of the two sides retreated, the other followed, and they walked for more than ten miles. Long Yuan came to Liu Xiu's side and whispered in his ear: "Lord, it's almost time, it's past Chen hour!"
Liu Xiu nodded, stopped, and shouted to the giant giant opposite: "Stop!"
Juwuba patiently asked, panting heavily, "Liu Xiu, what do you want?"
"Don't follow us anymore. When we withdraw ten miles away, Dou Rong will be released naturally!" Liu Xiu said.
"Why should I believe what you say?" Ju Guuba asked angrily.
Liu Xiu shrugged and said: "But I will never go back on anything I promise. If you don't believe it, then I have nothing to do. I can only kill him first, and then fight to the death with you!"
As he spoke, he raised his sword upwards, seemingly intending to pierce Dou Rong's throat with the sword.
Juwuba hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute!"
He glared at Liu Xiu opposite him, was silent for a long time, and said: "Okay, Liu, I believe you this time. If you dare to go back on your word, I will kill all the Lius in the world and let them do it for you."
Buried with him!"
Liu Xiu smiled indifferently and did not take the threat of Juguba at all. He took the reins handed over by Long Yuan, jumped on the horse, and then let Long Yuan take Dou Rong, and the group went straight to Pingding Mountain.
After running for ten miles, Liu Xiu looked back and saw that Ju Guuba and other reckless soldiers had really not caught up.
He reined in the horse and asked Long Yuan to put Dou Rong down from the horse. He drew out the Chixiao Sword, swung down, cut off the rope tied to Dou Rong, and said: "Dou Rong, you can go.
!”
Dou Rong slowly opened his eyes, first looked down at himself, then raised his head, looked at Liu Xiu in surprise, and asked in disbelief: "Are you really going to let me go?"
Liu Xiu said: "A gentleman's word is like a whip! I will never regret what I said unless I can't do it."
Dou Rong looked at Liu Xiu eagerly and said nothing for a while. He was Wang Yi's brother-in-law. Liu Xiu neither killed him nor detained him, but just let him go. Dou Rong still couldn't believe it.
.
Regardless of whether he believed it or not, Liu Xiu waved to Long Yuan, who understood, took an ownerless war horse, handed it to Dou Rong, and said: "Okay, we don't have time to delay with you here, hurry up
Let’s go!”
Dou Rong subconsciously took the reins, looked at Liu Xiu, then at the people around him, tentatively turned the horse's head, and walked back a few steps.
Seeing that Liu Xiu and others really had no intention of stopping him, Dou Rong felt a little more at ease and felt that Liu Xiu was really planning to let him go.
He took a deep look at Liu Xiu, raised his hands and said: "General Liu's kindness of not killing today has been recorded by Duke Zhou. In the future, General Liu should be more careful about Ju Guba. This man is not only powerful in martial arts, but can also control all kinds of beasts."
.”
After a pause, he said in a more serious tone: "That is definitely not a rumor! That's all, I'll take my leave!" After saying that, he urged the war horse under his crotch and ran out quickly.
The giant has the ability to control all kinds of beasts. This is not a secret. Rumors have long been known to everyone.
However, in the eyes of most people, it is just a rumor and not credible. How can a person command such ferocious beasts as wealth wolves, tigers and leopards?
Looking at the back of Dou Rong Yiqi Juechen, Ma Wu snorted angrily and said: "Before leaving, he also deceived the lord, he is a complete villain! The lord should not let him go!"
Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and murmured: "What if Dou Rong didn't lie?"
Ma Wu was stunned and asked in surprise: "Master, do you really believe that Ju Guba has the ability to drive the wealthy tigers and leopards?"
Liu Xiu smiled calmly and said: "The world is so big that there are many wonders. Even if there is a person who can control all kinds of beasts, there is nothing surprising." Moreover, just looking at the appearance, Ju Wuba is indeed a strange person.
Without further delay here, Liu Xiu led more than a hundred Han soldiers and quickly entered Pingdingshan.
Speaking of Dou Rong, he ran all the way back to the main formation of the Mang Army and met up with Ju Wuba and others.
Seeing that Dou Rong had come back safe and sound, Ju Wu Ba also breathed a sigh of relief, and then he became furious again. If Dou Rong hadn't done something bad this time, he would have really ripped off Liu Xiu'er's head.
He didn't say a word to Dou Rong. He waved his hand to the men behind him and shouted: "Chase! Liu Xiu's son hasn't gone far yet. Today, we must not let him escape!"
Ju Wu Ba was about to lead his cavalry to pursue Liu Xiu. Dou Rong urged him forward, stretched out his hand to stop him, shook his head and said: "General Ju Wu, don't chase the enemy when you are in trouble. Look at the direction Liu Xiu and others are going, it is Pingding Mountain.
The terrain there is steep and it’s easy to set up an ambush, so we’d better send scouts to investigate clearly first!”
Send scouts to investigate? How long will it take? By the time the scouts find out, the day lilies will be cold!
Ju Wuba glared at Dou Rong with dissatisfaction and said in a deep voice: "If General Dou was not greedy for merit this time, how could he be captured by Liu Xiu? How could Liu Xiu take the opportunity to escape?"
Now Ju Wuba had suppressed a lot of resentment. When he looked at Dou Rong, his eyes were blue. He gasped and said, "If General Dou is afraid, just wait here. I don't have time."
Spend time with you here!"
After speaking, he ignored Dou Rong and headed straight for Pingding Mountain with his cavalry.
Dou Rong could not persuade Juwuba, so he had no choice but to take his subordinates and follow the first group of Juwuba to Pingding Mountain.
Entering Pingding Mountain, the terrain begins to become complicated, with mountains and forests. Even if you want to find a guide to lead the way, you can't see anyone.
Juwuba led his cavalry and walked forward from east to west. After passing a large area of rocks, horseshoe marks could finally be seen on the ground. Juwuba squatted down and took a closer look.
, he judged that they were all new horse hoof prints. He was overjoyed, stood up, pointed in the direction where the horse hoof prints extended, and said, "Liu Xiu is running that way! Chase him!"
Under his leadership, the reckless cavalry gradually went deep into Pingding Mountain. Going further, there was a large mountain blocking the way. In the center of the mountain, it seemed as if it had been split open by a giant axe. There was a path that could accommodate two horses.
Parallel canyons.
Judging from the horse hoof prints on the ground, Liu Xiu and others had passed through this canyon. Just as Juguba was about to command his cavalry to pass through the canyon, Dou Rong caught up and said in a hurry: "Wait a minute!"
Ju Wuba's face was filled with impatience. He turned back to look at Dou Rong, who was running quickly, and asked: "General Dou, what can you do?"
Dou Rong did not speak immediately, but stared at the canyon in front of him with wide eyes.
The canyon is narrow and long, and the ground is full of rocks, making it extremely difficult to walk. If there is an enemy ambush at the top of the mountain, our soldiers will be in danger when passing through this canyon.
After looking around for a while, Dou Rong shook his head at Juwuba and said, "General Juwu, the terrain of this canyon is too steep. It's better... to explore it clearly before crossing!"
Ju Guuba was almost angry. Before entering Pingding Mountain, Dou Rong said there might be an ambush in the mountain, but he couldn't even see a single person. Now that he was here, he said there might be an ambush, but where was the ambush?
Can Liu Xiu and others grow wings to fly up to such a high mountaintop?
He said angrily: "If General Dou is afraid, let me wait and pass first. Is that okay?" As he spoke, he started to move forward again.
This time, Dou Rong did not give in. He quickly dismounted, grabbed Juwuba's sleeve, and said in a deep voice: "General Juwu, you must not act rashly!"
Ju Guuba was also anxious. Time was running out. If he was delayed any longer, Liu Xiu would not know where he would go. He first waved his hand to his cavalry and said, "Hurry into the canyon!"
Then, he turned to look at Dou Rong, his face full of displeasure, and said: "Why did General Dou repeatedly stop me from pursuing Liu Xiu? Could it be that General Dou has had an affair with Liu Xiu?"
His words made Dou Rong's expression suddenly change, and he subconsciously loosened Juwuba's sleeves. He said with a gloomy face: "General Juwu, be careful what you say!"
Ju Guuba rolled his eyes at him and said nothing more. Dou Rong was Wang Yi's brother-in-law. Others might have had an affair with the rebels, but Dou Rong had absolutely no chance.
After being delayed by Dou Rong, the cavalry under Ju Wuba's command entered the canyon in batches, at least hundreds of them. With so many soldiers and horses entering, except for the sound of horse hooves, there was no other movement.
Ju Wuba glanced at Dou Rong, as if to say, so what, where are the ambush soldiers you are worried about? He chuckled and strode into the canyon.
He entered the canyon and walked about ten steps forward. Suddenly, he heard a loud banging sound above his head. Big Boss subconsciously looked up and saw a stone struck by a basin coming from the top of the mountain.
Roll up and down.
Dou Rong, who was standing at the entrance of the canyon, could see this scene clearly. He subconsciously exclaimed: "Be careful..."
Before he finished speaking, the big stone had already hit Juwuba.
The latter gave a loud shout, swung the hammer in his hand upwards, and heard a loud bang in his ear. A large stone weighing dozens of kilograms fell from the top of such a high mountain, and was hit by the giant.
Hammered to pieces.
But soon, the second, third and even more stones fell one after another from the top of the mountain. The giant stood in the canyon, with his legs spread apart, swinging the double hammers in his hands, and kept
Hit upwards.
Bang, bang, bang——
The loud sounds of hammers breaking stones came one after another, and the echoes lingered in the canyon for a long time. Such a scene made Dou Rong and the surrounding soldiers stunned. There was no human being here, it was just a human-shaped monster!
Jumbo smashed more than a dozen boulders in one breath, but the rocks on the top of the mountain were still falling down continuously. At this time, even Jumbo was a little unable to support itself.
He roared unwillingly, and used both hammers to smash two falling rocks again. Then, he retreated backwards, staggering back from the canyon to the outside.
Looking at Juwuba again at this time, he looked like a native, with his head and body covered with dust and gravel. On the other hand, in the canyon, pieces of falling rocks were still falling down.
Juwuba successfully exited the canyon, but none of the hundreds of reckless cavalry who entered the canyon failed to exit.
In the canyon, people were constantly being hit by falling rocks and falling off their horses. Some people and horses were knocked to the ground together. The screams of these hundreds of cavalry were heard in the canyon.
