Chapter 48: The King of Hell Comes to the Door
Torches were inserted everywhere in Hongshan Shui Village, and there was a natural danger in the lake. The water village was not always tense. Only a few scouts stood on the arrow tower and stared at them. The water bandits gathered between the houses to drink and roll dice, and there were noises everywhere.
In the middle of the meeting hall, the boss Sun Gan sat in the main seat, with a thin body and a literati, but his face was gloomy and he showed a bit of hostility.
The third and third Ma Sihu have not come back yet. There is only the second leader Quartz in the conference hall. Quartz is several rounds thicker than Sun Gan. He doesn't look very smart. At this time, he is still making fun of Ma Sihu's affairs a few days ago, and he is spitting out all over the place.
Sun Gan couldn't stand it and slapped the handrail with a little annoyed:
"You still have the heart to laugh. You finally recruit more than a thousand people and your reputation has been gained. I am in contact with the big guys in Jiangnan. In a few days, we three brothers can do a good job. But the result is that if you turn around, you will lose such a big person. Even a thousand people can't manage them well. If there are tens of thousands of people in the future, how can others hand them to me with confidence?"
Quartz coughed lightly, but didn't dare to laugh, and asked curiously:
"Brother, we just recruit people to save money, but we don't know where to send the money. The brothers are suspicious when they stay in the village, and they think the three of us have divided it privately. You can give me some clarity, so I can give them some clarity and comfort..."
Sun Gan and this brother who grew fat but had no brains could not communicate, so he waved his hand and said:
"The time is not right, just wait. Ye Jiuniang probably has run away long ago, so she asked the third brother to come back to find a way to tie some meat tickets..."
While speaking, running and shouting suddenly sounded outside the chamber:
"Enemy attack! The officers and soldiers are coming..."
Sun Gan suddenly stood up after hearing this, his eyes were very surprised.
Quartz was also puzzled and said in confusion: "The government didn't say that he was going to hit us, why did he come here without any notice?"
"How do I know?"
Sun Gan took advantage of the famine to collect so many war-capturing soldiers, so naturally it was not to be kind enough to keep them. He connected with the King of Wu a few months ago and reached an agreement with each other that the King of Wu would not send troops to attack, and the small-scale officers and soldiers organized by the government would also ventilate in advance.
Sun Gan thought for a while and raised his hand and said, "Let the young men be wary, go out and see how many people are there."
Quartz nodded, got up and took the long-handled copper hammer from the wall, and walked out of the chamber on his shoulder.
When the people in the water village heard the shouts, they had gathered together and ran to the fortresses with swords, guns, bows and arrows. Although hundreds of elite soldiers took the lead, most of the water bandits were still the mobs who had just joined. The situation suddenly became a little confused, which attracted a lot of scolding.
Quartz brought more than 20 elite water bandits to the wooden wall of the water village, stood on the platform and looked at the lake in the distance. There was no light at all, only a little fire was lit on the dock on the other side, and it appeared and disappeared in the snowy night.
"Damn it, did those stupid guys order the house?"
Quartz's face was slightly dark, and he looked at his subordinates: "Send someone to the lake to take a look."
The subordinates held the knife and looked cautious: "The two groups of people sent out, but they all went but didn't return, and there was no response. The officers and soldiers probably had already touched the shore."
Quartz was not very smart, but he was not stupid either. He had to attack the Thousand People Water Village, at least a dozen large ships and thousands of officers and soldiers. How could he just stool silently? He lit a few good hands, held a long-handled hammer and slid down the gate of the Water Village, and walked along the black road to the lake.
The fire in the water village was bright, but the road outside was dim and dull, and it was snowing. Even if you held the torch, you could only look down on a few feet in front of you.
Quartz walked with a copper hammer in one hand, and wanted to scold the sentry on the other side. He never thought that before he could walk a hundred steps, a "Sa" sound came from the snowy night.
"Beware!"
Although Quartz is strong, he moves very quickly. He lifts the hammer and picks it gently. He knocks out the speeding feather arrows. The arrowheads draw a few sparks on the copper hammer.
The minions behind him were as if they were facing a great enemy and quickly raised their weapons and pointed forward.
In the quiet night ahead, a man's slightly surprised "Huh?" sound was made, and then a little cold light pierced through the wind and snow in front of him. The white shadow's feet were as if they were ghosts. When they saw it clearly, they had already arrived.
Seeing this hand, Quarine's face changed suddenly, and she roared and swung the long handle to sweep at the attacking spear, and quickly retreated.
The copper hammer hit the spear, making a crisp sound of metal and iron fighting.
Quartz only felt an incomprehensible huge force coming from his hand. He felt a numb copper hammer on his face and the long spear was only slightly offset.
The long spear stabbed a minion beside him and pierced through the minion's upper body effortlessly, like a poisonous snake spitting a letter and then pulling it away.
Quartz took three steps in a row before he could barely dodge the long spear. The blood spurted out from his side splattered on his face. He looked up and saw that the white shadow had already hidden in the night, but the minion's body had not yet fallen.
"who?"
"What..."
The faces of more than a dozen elite water bandits changed drastically, and the night ahead was as quiet as usual. If it weren't for the corpse of their companions' blood, no one would have suspected it was an hallucination.
"withdraw!"
Quartz's copper hammer fell three steps away, but he didn't dare to go forward to pick it up. He stared at the black road and quickly retreated, with more than a dozen minions following behind.
Unfortunately, the white shadow appeared again without running far, and this time it fell directly from the head of everyone. The spear appeared silently and pierced the top of a minion's head, and everyone noticed it.
Quartz was so shocked that he was scattered and did not care about his subordinates around him. His speed soared, and he rushed out a few feet away with two big strides. Behind him, the crisp sound of bone bursting and the terrified screams of his subordinates.
In just one breath, after just two slight sounds of "swish" and there was no movement behind me.
Quartz still didn't see what the other party was. He ran around and looked back. The one he chased from behind was the long-handled copper hammer he threw on the ground. He just turned around and hit the back with great force. He threw the strong Quartz beside him out and threw it on the snow for a few rounds.
Blood surged into his throat, and Quarine's face turned red in an instant. Fortunately, people who have been walking in the world for many years will keep some life-saving hands. They have armor plates on their front chests and backs, and they are all fat all over. They are not treated as breaking their spine. They get up and continue running, shouting:
"Shoot!Shoot!"
Sausa--
Quartz and others held up torches. The water bandits on the Water Village Arrow Tower had already noticed the movement here. After seeing Quartz rushing into the land of an arrow, more than a dozen bows began to pour water into the night to cover Quartz's escape.
The ghost white shadow in the night also gave up the pursuit and temporarily lost sight.
After several waves of arrow rain, the wounded Quartz was pulled up to the gate of the village. More than a hundred water bandits with swords were guarding the walls. Several warships sailed out of the dock, preparing to pick up the "official and soldier"'s back path. The archers pulled their bows like a full moon, searching for the traces of the white shadow in the night.
The water village was quiet for a short time, and everyone held their swords and soldiers to pay attention to the surroundings, and the elusive shadow seemed to have quietly retreated and never appeared again.
Just as many water bandits looked at each other and were about to send a large group of people out to see, a muffled "bang" suddenly came from behind, like a city hammer loaded on something.
Many water bandits were frightened and quickly turned their heads, but they saw a white shadow rushing towards the wooden pillar of the Looking Tower at a nearly terrifying speed, and a clamping against the mountain bend directly hit the pillar that was thick with its thighs, breaking the foundation of the Looking Tower.
With the crisp sound and screams of "Kaku", the building collapsed and smashed into the house behind it, falling into pieces. The white shadow did not stop at all and hit another one.
