Chapter 621: Rescue
The old monk Huijing mentioned that Xu Jin walked out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall first, and more than a dozen monks such as Huiyuan and Pujing followed, plus Chen Dong and Zhixin Meizi and other robbers, a total of thirty people.
Outside the main hall, fifty five hundred battalion soldiers were so hateful that their eyes were split, and the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at Hui Jing and the others, but no one dared to shoot rashly, it was really once an adult had an accident, no one could afford it.
At this time, Guo Jindiao, the sharpshooter of the 500th Battalion, was hiding on an old banyan tree outside the temple, and his position was just enough to cover the 30 horse-drawn carriages parked on the official road, which was the best position to shoot.
Although the old monk Huijing was bold, he still had a little numb scalp in the face of dozens of black holes, and he lifted Xu Jin high in front of him, and the bright ring knife rested on Xu Jin's neck, and cautiously walked towards the temple gate. The monks of the Ming Dynasty surrounded the old monk Huijing in the middle in a semicircle, and moved forward cautiously.
Shi Haoran estimated that the salt transport was too heavy, so the monks untied the ropes on his feet and forced him to walk by himself with a ring knife against his back.
"Brother Guo, are you sure to hit?" Xie Sangun was lying on the branch next to Guo Jindiao, and when he saw Huijing Lao Shang carrying his brother-in-law out of the temple gate, he couldn't help but ask nervously in a low voice.
Guo Jindiao was also so nervous at this time that a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, from his position to the temple gate is about thirty meters, at this distance, he is confident that he can blow up an orange with one shot, but at this time he did not dare to shoot rashly, because the old monk's ring knife is on the adult's neck, and the ring knife may also cut the adult's neck when it falls, the risk is too great, and he has to be cautious.
The old monk Huijing walked out of the temple gate with Xu Jin in his hand, and shouted loudly like a bell: "All retreat, be careful that the poor monk's knife is not long-eyed, and the neck of Lord Qincha is golden, but he can't withstand the gentle touch of this knife." ”
The officers and soldiers of the Jinyi Guard and the Yangzhou Guard, who were in charge of blocking the road, had no choice but to retreat and give way to the road.
The old monk Huijing's triangular eyes swept around ferociously, and his eyes finally glanced at the tall and dense old banyan tree, and then walked down the stone steps to the official road below, and intentionally or unintentionally blocked Xu Jin's body on the side of the banyan tree.
"Damn, he found out?" Xie Sangun exclaimed.
Guo Jindiao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "No, it's just that this old monk is too cunning and cautious." ”
The thirty carriages brought by Xia Yan stopped on the official road outside the temple, and the old monk Huijing got down the stone steps, and immediately carried Xu Jin to one of the empty horses, and then Guo Jindiao completely lost the opportunity to snipe.
At this time, a group of monks and Japanese thieves such as Miko Orishinobu also got into the carriage and drove away.
Wang Lin'er and Xie Erjian didn't wait for Guo Jindiao's gunshot, knowing that things were going to go bad, they could only order to follow closely behind the thieves' convoy, and at the same time urgently discuss countermeasures.
The old monk Huijing didn't seem to care about the officers and soldiers following behind, and led the convoy to move forward unhurriedly on the official road, and arrived outside Yangzhou Wei's camp after about half an hour.
At this time, Xia Yan, Wang Lin'er and others suddenly realized that the thieves were planning to escape by water, because Yangzhou Wei's camp was on the edge of the canal, and there were many boats.
In addition, the thief has Qincha as a hostage, and it is still easy to coerce Suzhou Wei and Zhenhaiwei, who are blockading the Yangtze River estuary, to give way to the waterway, and maybe they will also take advantage of the situation to ask for sea boats, which is broken!
Xia Yan's face was extremely ugly, and he immediately ordered someone to prepare for the ship to pursue. Xie Erjian angrily smashed the saddle and said in a deep voice: "You must not let the thieves escape by boat, otherwise the possibility of saving the adults will be even slimmer, and we can't always be led by the nose by the other party." ”
A trace of guilt flashed in Guo Jindiao's eyes and said, "Boss Xie, it's all my fault for being indecisive just now." ”
Wang Lin'er patted Guo Jindiao's shoulder and comforted: "Lao Guo, don't blame yourself, I wouldn't dare to shoot if I was in the same situation just now." ”
Guo Jindiao gritted his teeth and said, "Commander Wang, I want to try again, this time I will definitely blow up the thief's bald head." ”
Wang Lin'er nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead, you can take advantage of the opportunity freely." ”
Guo Jindiao waved his fist, and Xie Sangun and the two of them galloped out, and went around the downstream of the Yangzhou Wei camp, which was close to the water village, and Yangzhou Wei's ships were moored on the dock of the water village.
Besides, the old monk Huijing led the convoy to rush into the camp of Yangzhou Wei in a grand manner, at this time the camp of Yangzhou Wei was empty, only dozens of old, weak, sick and disabled guards, and when they saw the thieves rushing in, they were so frightened that they scattered and fled, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.
Hui Jing seemed to have expected this to be the case, laughed and got out of the carriage, took the lead in boarding a large ship on the dock, and ordered the grain and gold and silver on the carriage to be loaded onto the ship.
At this time, Wang Lin'er and Xie Erjian had already led their soldiers to gradually approach the dock. Seeing this, the old monk Huijing sneered, carried Xu Jin to the bow of the boat, and threatened loudly: "All of them take thirty steps back, otherwise you will unload one of your Lord Xu's arms, Lao Tzu will do what he says." ”
"!" Wang Lin'er and Xie Erjian couldn't help but curse in their hearts, but this old thief was bald and cruel for all to see, so they could only order to retreat.
When the old monk Huijing saw that the officers and soldiers had obediently retreated, he laughed with satisfaction: "Everyone move slowly, don't be in a hurry, move all the grain, gold and silver to the ship, and the day after tomorrow at the latest, everyone will be able to live happily at sea." ”
After the old monk Huijing finished speaking, he returned to the cabin triumphantly, casually threw Xu Jin on the plank, ordered the two warrior monks to take care of it, and went to do other things himself.
In the cabin, Xu Jin, Wang Cuiqiao's master and servant, and Shi Haoran, the salt transport envoy, were all tied hand and foot and thrown to a corner, except for the two warrior monks, everyone else went to help carry food and money, and some people were ready to set sail.
Xu Jin obviously also understood that once the ship started, it would be more difficult for him to get out, so he was also very anxious at the moment, and his mind was turning rapidly, thinking about how to save himself.
Cuckoo ......
A vivid cuckoo call came from outside, but Xu Jin's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he moved his body slightly unconcernedly, and turned his head to look out of the ship's window.
Soon, Xu Jin's eyes locked on a dense willow tree on the shore, and at this time, the breeze blew, revealing a black muzzle under the wicker.
Xu Jin was overjoyed in his heart, lowered his head casually, and moved to Wang Cuiqiao's side.
Wang Cuiqiao was sitting on Xu Jin's left side at the moment, while Yan Yun made Shi Haoran sit on the right side, and his mountain-like body just blocked the sight of the two guarding monks, which undoubtedly brought convenience to Xu Jin.
Xu Jin was unconcerned, and moved towards Wang Cuiqiao's side little by little......
