Chapter 30 Traitor
The leader of the Yanzi Bandits is named Kong Yuexin.
He was originally the battalion commander of the Yancheng Guard Battalion, a master who specialized in guarding the Lord of Yancheng City.
But he had no choice but to hook up with the young and beautiful wife newly married by the lord of Yancheng City, and by the way, she gave him the daughter of the lord of Yancheng City to sleep with.
As a result, the city lord's daughter committed suicide in shame and anger, which led to the revelation of the matter. Kong Yuexin escaped from Yancheng and got the Yanzi thief.
At the beginning, Yancheng raised troops to encircle and suppress the army, but they failed one after another due to various reasons. In the end, they could only die down. Especially when the original city lord was transferred and a new city lord came, no one cared about it.
It's over.
As wars raged across the country, the Swallow Bandits remained here without anyone to deal with them, ultimately causing suffering to the surrounding people.
Perhaps the sky is the limit, but Yanzi Bandit spent all day hunting and was blinded by pecks. He encountered a tough fight during a robbery, Kong Yuexin was killed, and Yanzi Bandit was defeated directly.
But soon afterwards, the second leader Luo Yongsan's strength increased, reaching the level of gathering strength and strength, and continued to lead the Yanzi robbers to cause harm to the surrounding areas.
In order to stabilize the hearts of the original members of the Yanzi Pirates, Luo Yongsan announced that the position of the big leader would always be Kong Yuexin, and he would only be the second leader.
Although it seems quite ridiculous to many people, it does win people's hearts.
This Luo Yongsan is also not simple. He was originally a disciple of the Quefeng Sect, but he secretly killed his mentor for personal gain, and then poisoned the Quefeng Sect to destroy it. Finally, he came here with the sect's martial arts "The Quefeng Needle".
Que Feng Zhen is a very powerful soft fist martial art.
Ordinary soft fist warriors are already very fast, but after practicing the bird-bee needle, they become more like ghosts and cannot be caught.
They are also the rare warriors who do not use swords. They only use their hands for close combat. The main damage comes from the special gloves they wear, with sharp iron nails on them to pierce their vitals.
Being able to know so much is thanks to the people in the caravan.
Since they want to guard against swallow thieves, they will naturally spend their energy investigating and then make targeted preparations.
Although the caravan's guards are basically ordinary people with big shoulders and round waists, dozens of crossbows have been prepared to deal with this soft fist master.
After all, soft fist warriors cannot resist sharp blades, so bows and crossbows are the best offensive weapons.
There are two types of caravan guards. One is raised by the caravan itself. They are trained since childhood and have high loyalty.
The other type is those temporarily recruited by Shi Kang, which are short-term jobs and require all kinds of dangerous and dirty work.
As the guard captain, Shi Kang not only needs to be alert to the surrounding environment, but also needs to restrain the people under him.
His height and weight are much higher than ordinary people, which can easily give people a sense of oppression. The few people under him are like a mouse seeing a cat when they see him, and they don't dare to do anything to stab him.
After all, the bigger the body, the more advantages it has before concentrating strength.
"Captain Shi!"
In the hot weather, Meng Xiang walked over quickly and handed him a bag of water, "Drink some."
These are people from the caravan, who follow the caravan director and are responsible for their protection.
"Well, thank you." Shi Kang took it, took two sips, frowned slightly, and then handed the water bag back, "What can I do?"
Meng Xiang watched Shi Kang drink the water and said with a smile: "It's nothing. I just want to ask if the people above can find a place to rest for a while. The weather is too hot and many people can't hold on."
Already."
Hearing him say this, Shi Kang looked at the other person.
Ahead is the Swallow Forest, which is the most likely place for the Swallow Thief to appear. It would be interesting for the other party to rest here.
However, this forest is indeed the only place on this official road that can be used as a resting place. After all, if you are exposed to the strong sun, you may die from the sun.
Shi Kang smiled and said: "Okay, let's take a rest in front."
Watching Meng Xiang leave, Shi Kang curled his lips slightly, and a wisp of water quickly dripped from his lips.
The moment he drank it, he realized there was something wrong with the water.
It's not a poison, but it's a slow, paralyzing drug.
"It seems that this Meng Xiang is a spy of the Yanzi Thieves?"
Shi Kang was quite surprised. It was normal for a spy to be mixed into this caravan, but how could it be one of his own people in the caravan?
He originally guessed that there were some talented people among these newly recruited guards.
Could it be that the Yanzi Thieves had anticipated this and buried the person in advance?
A bit weird.
But it doesn't matter, he doesn't care at all what kind of strength Yanzi Pirates has.
And this medicine has no effect on him.
After the strength is penetrated, he has a high resistance to drugs, and these two mouthfuls will not have any impact on him.
But just in case, he secretly took out a black pill and put it in his mouth.
The refreshing feeling in your mouth is accompanied by the saliva in your stomach, and your mind feels much clearer.
Leading a group of people, Shi Kang found a relatively shady place beside the official road to rest.
The caravan behind them also gradually stopped, and everyone found a comfortable place to sit on the ground.
The stewards in the caravan also walked out of the carriage, wiped their sweat, and sighed uneasily.
"Everyone needs to take a break and leave. We can't stay here any longer."
"I know, I know."
Everyone sitting on the ground responded listlessly.
Shi Kang kept his eyes fixed on Meng Xiang to see what he was going to do.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Meng Xiang to be unable to sit still. He began to move his body and came to the side of several other people, talking to them in a low voice.
This allowed Shi Kang to also include these people in the suspect list.
"Everyone, drink some water, drink some water!" At this time, another person came over with a bunch of water bags, and handed one to everyone he saw.
From beginning to end, there was no one left behind.
"I just had a drink, no need." Shi Kang smiled and addressed the other party, then watched him sit down among Meng Xiang's group of people.
As everyone drank the water and began to rest, Shi Kang, who had been alert to his surroundings, finally discovered that someone was snooping around in the distance.
It seems that Meng Xiang and the others have already sent out a signal, and Yanzi Pirates' men are ready to come.
Tap tap tap tap...
The sound of horse hooves trampling the ground gradually sounded from far to near.
The smart people jumped up immediately, looked into the distance, and couldn't help shouting: "The swallows have been stolen!"
In an instant, everyone jumped up and looked into the distance.
A group of dozens of people came galloping from the forest, holding swords and without saying a word, they just went to kill everyone.
"Prepare for war! Prepare for war!"
The caravan steward shouted loudly, and the guards quickly drew their weapons and faced the enemy.
But at this moment, a person suddenly touched his forehead, screamed twice, and then fell to the ground, unconscious.
Like dominoes, the guards fell one after another, and soon there were only a few people in the caravan still standing.
Shi Kang lay on the ground, looking for traces of Luo Yongsan.
