Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 244: Night Sneak Attack

On the main road, shortly after Hu Yicheng and others left the pavilion after resting, an arrow was shot from the nearby jungle.

The arrow came so suddenly that everyone was startled. Fortunately, they had just had a conflict with Ouyang Ming and the others, so they were still somewhat vigilant, so the knight's figure flickered, barely avoiding it.

However, this arrow also aroused the anger of the crowd. Several knights jumped off their horses, took their shields off their horses, and quickly approached the jungle. Their movements are neat and orderly, obviously after years of training.

It is absolutely impossible for ordinary mobs to be so calm in the face of danger, and only soldiers who have been on the battlefield can have such a temperament.

However, when they entered the jungle at the risk of arrows, they could only see a figure that was about to disappear. This person turned his head abruptly in the distance, and gestured a contemptuous gesture towards them.

Several knights were furious, and were about to chase after them desperately, but the leading knight frowned and said, "If you meet Lin Moru, let's go back!"

He has a very high prestige among the crowd, and once he speaks, no one dares to question or object.

Hastily retreating to the carriage, the leading knight said in a deep voice, "My lord, we are in trouble."

Hu Yicheng said indifferently: "What?"

"Among the people we drove out at the pavilion, there were a few daring ones. They hid in the roads on both sides and ambushed us."

"Oh? What audacity!" Hu Yicheng snorted angrily, with a hint of anger on his face.

He never thought about whether his behavior of waiting for others in the pavilion caused public outrage, because in his heart, people had already been divided into ranks, and he never cared about the thoughts of those lower ranks.

"Ling Feng, did those people come out of anger, or did they have a plan?" Xu Wenshi asked in a deep voice.

This knight leader is originally a junior in Hu Yicheng's family, so he is naturally loyal to him. However, after hearing Xu Wenshi's question, he gave a wry smile and said, "Uncle Xu, my nephew is not sure. However, they seem to just want to vent their anger and have no intention of killing people."

Although the arrow was fierce, it was not aimed at a fatal place.

Hu Yicheng snorted softly and said, "Brother Xu, it's just some petty thieves blocking the way. When I return to Beijing, I will definitely urge the government to catch them all."

Xu Wenshi shook his hand slightly, and said: "If it's just because you are not angry, you don't need to get angry because of it. But..." He frowned slightly, showing a trace of solemnity, and said: "I just feel, This matter is not simple."

Hu Yicheng was startled slightly, and said, "Brother Xu, what do you mean?"

Xu Wenshi thought for a while, and said: "Forget it, let's move on, if they are still entangled, it will be a bit troublesome."

Hu Lingfeng took a look at the uncle of the clan, and went straight to accept the order. Although this Xu Wenshi is not from the Hu family, he is very knowledgeable, and Hu Yicheng is even more obedient to him, so he does not resist.

The convoy continued to drive, but soon, there were various arrows shooting from the jungle on both sides. Although it would not make it difficult for them to move forward, it would undoubtedly be a dream to go fast.

Naturally, many knights refused to let it go, but whenever they rushed into the forest, they could not see any trace of the enemy at all. Although the tactic of shooting and running with one arrow is simple, it is extremely practical. The team seemed to be stuck in a quagmire,

It's hard to keep going.

Hu Yicheng and Xu Wenshi had already left the carriage. They looked at each other and felt a chill welling up in their hearts.

Naturally, this kind of delaying technique cannot be hidden from them. If you still believe that the other party blocked it because of the previous conflict, then you are too underestimating their IQ. However, what puzzled them was who would spend so much effort to intercept it halfway.

After being harassed by arrows again, Hu Yicheng glanced at the sky, and said in a deep voice, "Lingfeng, find a place to camp." He lowered his voice, and said, "When the sky gets dark, you quietly send someone to a nearby city for help. .”

"Yes, my lord." Hu Lingfeng also whispered.

Their convoy has more than 20 heroes in the army, at least they are strong and cultivated, even compared with the personal guards of the generals, they are not inferior.

A few small thieves were not in their eyes at first. However, after the enemy's sneak attack all the way, they also became worried. Because everyone knew that a major change might happen tonight.

As night was approaching, Hu Lingfeng resolutely gave up driving and ordered the barracks to be set up.

The camp tents on several carts were taken down, and Hu Yicheng had prepared sufficient supplies for this trip, even if he was camping outside, he would not be stretched.

However, the dignified atmosphere in the convoy was getting heavier and heavier.

The knights dismounted, and when the camp was being built, two knights disappeared one after another under the cover of everyone.

However, even Hu Yicheng and Xu Wenshi were not absolutely sure whether they could successfully seek rescue.

As the night darkened, a raging bonfire was lit in the camp. The tents were even looser on the outside and tighter on the inside, and all the people resting were fully armed, even if there was a slight change, they could immediately react the most quickly.

In the jungle, the dwarf quietly looked at the pile of bonfires on the road, his eyes flashed with a fierce and murderous look.

"Where are the two communication guys, have you caught them?"

"Brother, don't worry, we have already arranged manpower to intercept them, so that they can't escape!"

"Okay." The dwarf nodded heavily, waved his hand, and said, "Let's do it, don't leave a single one behind!"

When he said these words, he actually felt a sense of relief.

After all, the person they were going to attack this time was the official of the imperial court. Once they did this, even if it was for the sake of face, the imperial court would never let it go easily. If possible, he would absolutely not want to get involved.

However, when he thought of those terrifying eyes full of deathly hostility, his body couldn't help but shiver a little, completely throwing away that trace of luck.

After doing it, there may still be a possibility to fly away. But if he didn't do it, he wouldn't even have the possibility of escaping.

With a change of mind, he immediately put aside all worries, his figure flickered, and walked towards the bonfire with everyone.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Dozens of arrows were suddenly shot from the dark place and flew towards the camp.

However, Hu Yicheng and others had been prepared for a long time. They raised their shields one by one, or used carts to cover them. This round of arrow rain could not bring them any real damage except to make them sure that there was a sneak attack.

"kill--"

A ferocious roar sounded, and several strong men rushed to the outside of the camp.

But at this moment, several torches were suddenly thrown out of the tent, illuminating the surroundings like daylight. Afterwards, sharp arrows shot out from the inner circle, immediately knocking down the strong man who was hit by several numbers to the ground.

The defensive circle made by Hu Yicheng and others was very solid. Although the time was tight, it did not leave any obvious flaws.

The injured man lay on the ground and howled in pain, which immediately chilled the hearts of many strong men. They are not battle-hardened lions, and they are fine when they fight against the wind, but when they encounter adversity, they immediately hesitate to move forward.

However, at this moment, a short figure suddenly appeared in the flames.

Holding a big knife longer than his height, he walked towards the campfire step by step.

Hu Yicheng's face changed slightly, and he said sharply, "Shoot!"

If such an obvious target appears on the battlefield, it will undoubtedly be attacked by concentrated fire.

In the next moment, at least seven or eight arrows were shot one after another.

The short figure kept walking, and with a flick of his wrist, the big knife on his shoulder suddenly set off a dazzling light.

All the arrows shot at him were instantly shattered by the light of the knife, turning into debris on the ground.

"Yang grade strong!" Xu Wenshi gasped, sweat stains had already leaked from his vest.

They expected someone to ambush, but they never thought that there would be a man with a strong Yang rank among them. This is a strong man of Yang rank, with just a few of them, how can it be worth such a strong man's shot?

Everyone looked at each other, and they all saw the despair in each other's eyes.

The dwarf sneered, and continued to advance step by step. He just wanted to rush into the camp with absolute strength, so that the hearts of these people would be shattered, so that his subordinates could catch them all.

"Whoosh..."

Another arrow was shot, but when the arrow was shot, there was a trace of strangeness on everyone's face.

This arrow was not shot from the bonfire circle, but from behind the dwarf.

Even the dwarf himself felt unbelievable at this moment. He let out a soft drink, and the light of the saber in his hand flashed again, like a thunderbolt, slashed fiercely on the arrow.

Then, there was a bang, and the arrow exploded, turning into countless steel fragments, and continued to fly towards the dwarf.

The dwarf's expression changed drastically, he swung his knife around without thinking, only hearing the sound of a violent clash of gold and iron, he tried his best to barely block most of the fragments.

However, there were still two pieces of iron sheets flying past his body, leaving two bloodstains on his body.

Everyone's scalps were numb. What kind of weapon is this? It can actually hurt a strong male. If they get along in different places, wouldn't they be dead?

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The next moment, several arrows were fired in a row. The power of these arrows was not very great, but the dwarf didn't dare to resist any more.

His figure flickered, and he let out a fierce roar, tried his best to avoid the arrow attack, and ran towards the shadows, not even caring about the bonfire tent behind him.

Because he knew better than anyone else that if this hidden incident was not resolved, he might not have any chance to fulfill his ambush wish.

In the camp, Hu Yicheng and Xu Wenshi looked at each other, they both had a feeling of narrow escape.

"ah--"

Miserable screams continued to ring out from everywhere. Although no one was seen in the dark night, the screams were enough to make one's hair stand on end.

Xu Wenshi asked in a deep voice, "What should I do?"

Hu Yicheng gritted his teeth and said, "Get out!"

The two jumped up and rushed out with all the knights.
