In a place that was originally inaccessible, a team of people stopped here.
After taking a closer look, I realized that these were not ordinary hunters, nor the people around them, but a group of heavily armed men and horses, a total of eighteen people and eighteen strong horses, who had set up three large tents, each with his own body.
Wearing black clothes and covering their faces, they move quickly, like an army.
In the middle tent, there was a sudden sound of something falling to the ground.
Then, a man in black came out.
Standing at the door were two men in black. They were dressed in black but not masked. Their lives were very similar.
One of them said: "Brother, my lord means to kill the person immediately after finding him, but you insist on staying... This woman is very stubborn. She has not eaten or drank for two days. If this continues, won't she still die?"
"
The leader said: "Second brother, I understand what the Lord means. He is worried that this girl will escape and fall into the hands of the Yuchi family, which will be detrimental to us. However, she is just a weak woman. If she falls into our hands, how can she survive?"
Damn it, this little lady is so beautiful, wouldn't it be a pity to kill her, and starve her for a few days, then tame her, and stay with her as a maid... When this happens, even if the Lord knows, he will
I won’t blame you.”
"……All right!"
At this time, the leader said: "Second brother, please quickly take people to the wine shop that day to investigate and see if there is anything unusual. If a wine shop is burned down, the people nearby will find out sooner or later."
"yes!"
…
It's quiet at night.
In the mountain col, it was eerily quiet.
There were two large tents in the open space next to the burned-down wine shop.
It was Du He and others.
Everyone was stationed here, not even torches, it was dark and quiet.
In each large tent, there is a simple iron stove, which burns charcoal. There is a vent, which is covered with a lid and does not emit any light.
Wang Laowu was sitting behind everyone. He felt warm in front of him, but the cold wind was blowing behind him, and he could feel the cold through the big tent.
He was shivering.
Because of the cold, but also because of fear.
Just ten steps away, that night, he saw with his own eyes the tragic scene of corpses lying on the ground.
Nowadays, I can't help but recall the situation that day, and my whole body breaks out in cold sweat.
Although there were several people in the big tent, everyone was silent. It was eerily quiet, as quiet as if no one was there.
"Ouch..."
In the distance, a wolf is howling.
In the snow.
The ruins of the wine shop.
Snap.
There was a violent sound.
"ah……"
Wang Laowu screamed in fright.
Swish.
Immediately, two figures ran straight over.
Not long after, the two people came back, it was Xu Zhengdao and Guishen.
Xu Zhengdao said: "Brothers, don't worry, the earth wall collapsed, huh? What does it smell like?"
Everyone couldn't help sniffing and found a strange smell in the big tent.
Finally, everyone came looking for Wang Laowu.
Someone shouted: "Wang Laowu was so scared that he peed..."
Everyone suddenly realized that the strange smell just now was the smell of urine.
Everyone scolded Wang Laowu.
Just as everyone was talking and laughing.
Hooves clatter.
Hooves clatter.
In the distant snow, the sound of galloping horse hooves could be heard.
Swish swish swish.
Everyone rushed outside with weapons in hand.
I saw Du He had already appeared outside the big tent.
Du He said calmly: "This place is a dead end. It is obvious that those horses are coming here to ambush."
Xu Zhengdao and Guishen each took three people, quickly ran not far away, and laid an ambush in the woods.
As he watched, the three horses were coming this way.
At the intersection, the three horses suddenly stopped.
I just heard someone say: "Second brother, something is wrong... Why are there so many horse hoof prints on the snow?"
It snowed yesterday, and it won't snow again today.
The horse hoof prints on the snow are very obvious.
The leader suddenly pulled out the long knife from his waist: "Proceed with caution!"
Three horses were circling back and forth, and three masked men in black looked around cautiously.
Swish swish swish.
Swish swish swish.
At this moment, Xu Zhengdao and others suddenly rushed out from the side.
The six people moved quickly. Before the three masked men in black could react, they had already stepped forward and cut off the legs of the three healthy horses.
The three men in black fell off their horses.
He was then captured by Xu Zhengdao, Guishen and others, and escorted to Du He.
There were torches going up all around.
Only then did the three men in black see that there was actually a troop stationed here.
Du He came over and pulled off the mask of the leading masked man.
I saw this man, who looked to be in his thirties, with a beard, a thin face, and a rebellious look on his face.
"Tell me what you know and I can spare your life!" Du He said coldly.
Pooh.
The guy sighed and cursed: "Humph, you want me to speak, who do you think you are... Hahaha, are you from the Yuchi family? Are you here to find that woman? To tell you the truth, people...
He has been killed by us, and you will never find him again..."
Du He smiled and said: "You are half right, we are here to find that woman, but she is not from the Yuchi family."
The man was stunned for a moment, a little incomprehensible: "You...who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. I'll give you another chance. Tell me, where is that woman and who are you working for?" Du He asked.
"Bah!" The man was very tough, "If you want to kill me, just do it. If you want me to speak, there is no way. Hum, I told you, I have already killed you... No matter who you are, it is useless."
Xu Zhengdao sneered: "Stupid pig, do you really think we can't find your lair? Just follow the horse's hoof prints and you can find everything?"
"Hahaha……"
The man laughed loudly and said, "Do you think I would be that stupid? To tell you the truth, the horse hoof prints along the way have been cleaned up. You can't find anything when you walk out of this col."
Du He waved his hand.
"What a fuss!"
Lu Bu next to him didn't say a word, but raised his sword and dropped it.
The man fell to the ground, struggled a few times and then lost his breath.
Du He didn't blink an eye: "The most annoying person... you two, whoever speaks first will live, and the one who doesn't speak or is slow to speak will die!"
"I said!"
"I know……"
The two masked men scrambled and said at the same time.
Du Huahe smiled and said: "Take them separately. Whoever gives the details and knows more will live, and the other will die."
The two of them were frightened to death when they saw their second brother died tragically on the spot. Now after hearing Du He's words, their hearts were completely broken.
Xu Zhengdao and Guishen are each responsible for one person.
In a short time, everything was asked.
Du He breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Unexpectedly, Xiu'er is not dead yet... There is still hope for this matter. Let them lead the way and save people immediately without further delay."
"yes!"
Everyone acted quickly, put away the big tent, remounted their horses, and followed the direction given by the two masked men in black, Du He and others galloped away.
