13. A man is a murderer(1/2)
"Senior Brother..."
Qingqing raised her voice and grabbed Chen Qiu's wrist and refused to let go.
She was like a pitiful child, not wanting her relatives to leave. In front of the house, she looked at her senior brother who had changed into black clothes and inserted his two axes on his waist, and looked at the mountain ghost who was already waiting in the distance.
She pursed her mouth and said to Chen Qiu:
"Don't go, okay? Don't leave me here alone, senior brother~ I'm scared."
"Be good, Qingqing."
Chen Qiu looked at Qingqing's face that she was about to cry and her heart was quite fluctuating.
He did not have such a cute sister who acted coquettishly to him in his previous life, let alone sharing weal and woe with Qingqing, experiencing life and death, and dependent on each other for half a month, this simple girl really entered Chen Qiu's heart.
He said to Qingqing seriously:
"The mountain ghost said that the Northern Dynasties dog thieves are about to withdraw from Taihang. Once they leave, our revenge cannot be avenged. I was almost killed by them, you were almost plundered by them, and there is also a master..."
Chen Qiu stopped. He touched Qingqing's hair and said to the girl:
"No matter what the result is, we will be back at most three days. I have taught you to cook and left you some dry food. The mountain people around here are afraid of mountain ghosts and dare not get close to this place."
"Just stay here obediently. When your senior brother comes back, I will take you back to Suzhou."
"You ask me to go with you."
Qingqing saw that it was useless to act coquettishly, so she grabbed Chen Qiu's hand and said to Chen Qiu:
"I can help too. Brother Shangui gave me this bracelet. I used it to kill the rabbit yesterday. This is the Mo family's agency, and it is very powerful."
"good."
Chen Qiu sighed, and he reached out to hug Qingqing's head gently. The junior sister did not struggle. She pressed her head against Shen Qiu's abdomen, and there was a hidden sob.
"Senior brother, a great man, how can you take risks with me?"
"You just leave it here. There is a knife under my bed in my room, and that horse is left for you. When you encounter danger, go to the mountains. There is a village 3 miles away here."
"Just say you are a member of the Shangui family, the Shangui will protect you."
Chen Qiu lowered his head, looked at Qingqing's eyes with tears in his eyes, and he pursed his lips and said to the girl:
"Senior brother, I will definitely come back. I will help you avenge your bully!"
"Then you must come back quickly."
Qingqing wiped her eyes, she stretched out her little finger and said to Chen Qiu:
"I'm waiting for you here, pull the hook?"
“Hahaha, hook.”
Chen Qiu hooked his little finger and Qingqing's finger together.
This was the one he taught Qingqing to play when he was free a few days ago.
Saying goodbye to the reluctant Qingqing, Chen Qiu followed the mountain ghost down the road down the mountain. When he looked back, Qingqing was holding a horse on the hillside, waving to him.
Chen Qiu also reached out and shook his hand.
After a while, the two walked into the forest. The mountain ghost was a dull gourd. This was the first time Chen Qiu took the initiative to fight. He was a little nervous and was constantly adjusting his breathing.
Fortunately, the true qi flows in the body, which can relieve the fatigue of long-term running much, and is not very tired.
Gongsun Yu had a very good understanding of this deep mountain. He took Chen Qiu on a small road and walked down a river. After two hours of trekking, they arrived at the outskirts of Taihang Mountain.
"I'm actually very curious, how did you find those Northern Dynasties in this vast mountain?"
Chen Qiu followed the mountain ghost and asked:
"Is there a way to track thousands of miles?"
Shan Gui turned around and looked at him with a strange look, and whispered:
"The traces, the traces left by people in the mountains, are very different from those left by animals, and can be distinguished at a glance."
"Oh, it's like a hunter."
Chen Qiu nodded.
He asked again:
"Brother Gongsun, you... are born as a hunter?"
The mountain ghost shook his head, he didn't want to answer this question.
But Chen Qiu asked questions, probably because he was annoyed by the question, so the mountain ghost said:
"I have been in the mountains for 18 years and learned it myself."
18 years?
This guy has lived alone in this mountain for 18 years...
Chen Qiu couldn't help but flick his tongue.
It's really amazing.
No wonder this mountain is the same as the back garden in his eyes.
"Stop!"
After another three incense sticks, the two climbed up a small hill. Chen Qiu was about to stand up, but was held down by the mountain ghost and lay on the ground.
The mountain ghost pointed to the location of the hillside on the other side and lowered his voice and said:
"In front, there are horses neighing."
Chen Qiu glanced at the mountain ghost.
This guy's ears are so useful, but he didn't hear anything.
He and Gongsun Yu lay there for almost 3 minutes. Sure enough, a team of black knights galloped past hundreds of meters below.
7 people.
"The Northern Dynasties entered this mountain, at first, there were more than 20 people, and then 40 people reinforced them."
Shan Gui whispered:
"If there is no reinforcement, there will be only more than 10 left, and this is the last batch."
Chen Qiu pursed his lips.
According to the mountain ghost, he killed more than 40 people in the mountain alone in the past half month?
Chen Qiu immediately gained a new understanding of the destructive power of martial arts masters.
He asked:
"What if there are reinforcements?"
"Then withdraw."
The mountain ghost said without hesitation:
"When they disperse, then attack."
Chen Qiu nodded.
After the team left for a few minutes, the mountain ghost and he went down the hillside and followed the road until the riverside. The team seemed to rest in the forest and were still talking to each other.
The mountain ghost was lying in the grass, and he showed great patience.
After the team had enough rest, they set off on the road again, but the mountain road ahead was difficult and it was inconvenient to ride horses, so the group led the horses all the way forward.
The black-clothed guard was seriously injured under the attack of the mountain ghost, and the third day of Lord Dutong was already the second day.
These people were somewhat false, and they were afraid of being attacked by elusive mountain ghosts, so they did not disperse to look for clues, which was similar to an outing.
Shan Gui and Shen Qiu followed them for more than an hour, and it was not until the sunset was about to set that Shan Gui made a decision.
He said to Chen Qiu:
"There is no one around to pick him up, so this should not be a bait."
"I used to attack and kill more than 5 people, so I waited until it was late to prevent some from running away and causing trouble."
Chen Qiu nodded, he understood the meaning of the mountain ghost.
Now there are two people, so he can try to kill the team at dusk. He held the axe tightly and prepared for the battle, but was held down by the mountain ghost.
The latter shook his head at him and whispered:
"I will be the bait first, and you will be behind you, and you will be up and down... Don't get close to you, use a flying axe!"
"good!"
Chen Qiu agreed immediately.
The mountain ghost was still worried about his martial arts. As he said before, this group of people and horses were carrying crossbows, and the crossbows were useless at night.
But it is dusk, and once the target is locked, it is still very troublesome.
Chen Qiu's technique of lifting and raising the vertical skills, that is, light skills, are basically considered a beginner to practice. It is not systematic and it is difficult to avoid crossbow shooting.
So, the decoy will do it yourself.
The mountain ghost was carrying a sword on his back and quietly jumped onto the branch. His figure was like a monkey. He squatted on the branch and looked down. There was a lot of meaning in his eyes.
Chen Qiu probably understood it.
The mountain ghost was worried that Chen Qiu could complete the mission of sneak attack behind the scenes.
"Don't worry."
