He reached into the banyan leaves on the ground with both hands, and after groping for a while, Heifu finally found the knife with great difficulty.
Holding it tightly, he bent over hard, slowly cut off the vine roots on his feet, and fell heavily to the ground!
After he stood up, he immediately checked his wound, only to see that the crossbow arrow had penetrated the leather anklet and was embedded within three inches of the calf meat, but it did not penetrate. Perhaps it was because Zhongli Mei had picked up the crossbow arrow.
When placed on a bow, the crossbow arrow is short and cannot fully fire the bow, and the speed of leaving the string is not very fast.
Fortunately, it didn't hurt any bones, and it was still considered a "flesh injury". Otherwise, Heihu would have been injured, and the leg might have been completely destroyed.
But don't be careless. There are no future medicines these days, and the chance of death from wound infection is still very high.
While tearing the strips of cloth on his body and preparing to pull out the arrow and bandage it, Heifu remembered the real name of the Chu spy's departure newspaper.
"Zhongli Mei, he is actually Zhongli Mei..."
If it weren't for the coincidence of having the same name, Zhong Lizhen would have been the most important general under Xiang Yu twenty years later, known as the "Minister of Bones", ranked only after his father Fan Zeng.
"This was my first contact with a historical figure."
Hei Fu was a bit dumbfounded, there was no chance encounter, sympathy for each other, and the bastard spirit subdued him. He was a Qin official, and the other party was a Chu spy. It was a life-and-death chase. In the end, he was tricked and was brutally beaten. If it weren't for this weirdo Zhong Lizei
He was let go in a superfluous manner. At this moment, Hei Fu was already a dead body.
What the hell is this!?
But after hearing that the man was Zhong Lizei, Heifu no longer felt surprised about the failure of this reckless pursuit.
Zhongli Mei was good at using troops. When the Chu and Han Dynasties were fighting, Han King Liu Bang was defeated by Zhongli Mei several times. Afterwards, he could not forget this man and wanted to kill him quickly. When we saw him today, although he was still a little Chu spy, he acted with stratagem.
, already has some skills in the art of war, and he is indeed an extremely difficult person to deal with.
Hei Fu couldn't help but sigh to himself: "I was still too complacent. After becoming the director of the pavilion, I handled a few cases smoothly, and I became a little carried away. I actually underestimated the people in this world. But I didn't expect that in An
In Lu Xiao County, there is still a wolf from Jingchu lying there. As soon as he showed his fangs, I was at a disadvantage. "
Specially trained spies are indeed very different from ordinary bandits.
Failure is not something to be afraid of, what is afraid of is failure and not learning a lesson. This incident was like a wake-up call to Heifu, waking him up!
"My original intention is to survive in this great era, slowly climb up the ladder, look for opportunities, and do valuable things. It is not really about being a conscientious and dedicated pavilion chief of the Qin State who is busy with trivial matters and pursues thieves without caring about his own life!"
"I should keep this incident in mind as a lesson. I should be more diplomatic in the future and not put myself in danger again."
"I am a descendant of future generations, and my life is more valuable than Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, or even the First Emperor!"
Even so, Heifu was still a little dissatisfied, and the humiliating feeling of being hung upside down filled his heart. But at this moment, Zhongli Mei had already escaped, and Heifu was injured again, so he had no way to vent his emotions.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps trampling on branches and leaves suddenly came from the front. Heifu quickly grabbed the knife and cut it. When he looked up, it was an old acquaintance, You Youshu Wu...
…
"Chief Heifu Pavilion, I finally found you." Shuwu shouted from afar.
"It turned out to be a parade. Didn't you go chasing the scattered horses?" Heifu was a little cautious. He had always been at odds with this person.
Shuwu walked up to Heifu and said, "The murderer is cunning. I was afraid that Mangdian and the chief of the pavilion, Heifu, would not be his opponents. So I went to the third pavilion and informed the local chief of the pavilion, and immediately chased him on horseback. Sure enough, Mangdian
I fell into a trap and he showed me the way, so I looked for the mark left by the pavilion chief and found this after entering the forest."
The thing in his hand was none other than Heifu's red turban that had been hung up by branches and leaves.
"Hei Fu is ashamed, he fell into the murderer's trap." Hei Fu was a little embarrassed. His most embarrassing scene was actually seen by his old enemy.
"The criminal is cunning and it is common for him to escape. Please don't blame yourself, Mr. Pavilion Chief."
Shuwu smiled and handed the red ribbon to Heifu, but the moment Heifu took it, he suddenly put the sword in his hand across Heifu's neck!
"Heifu, put down the knife in your hand."
"Youyou, what do you mean by this?" Heifu looked at the sword and sighed secretly, wondering if Mercury was retrograde today? But he still threw away the sword.
Shu Wu kicked the knife far away with his kick. At this moment, Hei Fu was unarmed, so he stopped pretending and laughed: "The murderer, no, he should be called Chu Spy. In fact, you let him go on purpose, right?
"
Heifu looked at Shuwu coldly: "What are you talking about?"
Shuwu made a serious face: "No need to pretend, Pavilion Chief Heifu. I arrived here half a moment ago and happened to hear the last few words of conversation between you and the thief. He could obviously kill you, but he chose not to.
When I left, I announced my real name and made an appointment for the next meeting. If you hadn't colluded with him, why would you do this? No wonder the Chu spy led us everywhere, it turned out that Pavilion Chief Heifu was assisting us!"
"I don't understand wandering words."
Heifu shook his head: "I tried hard to catch the thief, but fell into the trap by mistake. Although I neglected my duty, I have a clear conscience. You can take me back to the county seat, and you and I will confront each other in court! If the accusation is untrue, You You can
I was falsely accused and sat back! Instead, I was wandering around. I didn't help him when I was there. I just sat back and watched the criminal leave. It was a crime to not save him within a hundred steps. As a wanderer, I let the thief leave.
One crime. When it comes to being someone who secretly colluded with Spy Chu, you seem to be more likely to be suspected!"
"you!"
Shu Wu's face turned green and white. He wanted to compete with Hei Fu, so he came so quickly. But when he arrived, he saw that Hei Fu, a famous warrior in the county, was hung upside down by the thieves. Shu Wu immediately gave up.
Where do you dare to show up?
He knew what he was capable of, so he dared to walk out cautiously after the murderer left. Seeing Hei Fu in such a mess, he couldn't help but feel proud again, and had evil thoughts in his heart, wanting to use the few words he heard to smear Hei Fu all over.
Unexpectedly, Hei Fu was not afraid at all. Shu Wu was not able to see his panicked look and couldn't help but feel very angry.
Over the past few days, the right lieutenant of the county has relied more and more on Heifu, but often reprimanded himself, and even said that he would remove him from the post of wandering and replace him with Heifu...
Jealousy took root in Shuwu's heart, and now it has grown into a towering tree, overshadowing the big banyan tree in front of him!
Just as Heifu said, if he is accused of being a spy without any evidence, the possibility of being found guilty is low, and he might even be falsely accused of being a spy.
But what if, in this deserted mountain, the injured black husband was killed, and then it was said that it was a thief?
"Kill him! No one will fight with you anymore!"
As soon as this thought appeared, Shu Wu could no longer stop it. He looked around guiltily, but there was no one around him. It would take a while for the guards to arrive, not to mention the lame Mang Dian.
When Hei Fu saw Shu Wu's eyes rolling, he knew that he had murderous intentions, and secretly thought that something was wrong!
"By the way, you can't use my sword to kill people, otherwise your order will find out."
Shuwu's eyes fell on Heifu's own sword a few feet away.
"Don't move!" Shu Wu continued to point his sword at Hei Fu, with a fierce look on his face. His other hand reached for Hei Fu's sword...
"I killed him with Heifu's sword, and said he was stabbed by a thief who seized the sword. When I arrived, there was only one dead body left. This way no one would doubt..."
Just as he was thinking about it, Shu Wu suddenly heard a noise behind him!
He didn't care about anything else, and quickly turned around and stabbed with his sword, but Heifu had already jumped up, dodged Shu Wu's sword, and at the same time, holding something in both hands, stabbed Shu Wu!
The crossbow arrow that was inserted into Heifu's calf just now was completely inserted into Shuwu's eye socket!
"Shu Wu."
Shuwu's face was covered with blood, and he screamed in pain and retreated, while Heifu smiled ferociously at the side: "Do you think everyone is Zhongli Mei!"
…
A moment later, when Mang Dian limped and arrived with three pavilion soldiers, Heifu, who had washed away the blood of Shu Wu by the pool, was walking out with difficulty holding a sword, also limping...
"Heifu Pavilion Chief!"
Mang Dian was overjoyed and quickly asked the pavilion guards to help Hei Fu and asked eagerly: "Are you okay? Where are the thieves? Where is Youyou?"
"Blame me."
Hei Fu looked sad, raised his head, and said regretfully: "I was careless just now and fell into a trap by a thief. I was hung upside down on a banyan tree and couldn't escape. In order to save me, Shu Wu was also shot by the thief with a crossbow.
