Chapter 161: Half a Pound and Eight Taels (Asking for Subscription)

As a sharpshooter, Ren Tianming's vigilance and the sound of bows and arrows breaking through the air are all too familiar. Although, at this moment, he is being distracted by the woman in his arms, and he is also a little lax. He was not always on full alert as he usually was.

But when Adou's arrow was shot, Ren Tianming still felt it, and his body that had just stood up straight immediately sat down violently.

"Whoosh...... Woo! ”

The arrow grazed his scalp and pierced a wooden beam behind him, the tail of which whined as it shook incessantly.

Ren Tianming's face changed greatly, and a drop of bean-sized cold sweat slipped down his cheeks. didn't have time to look at Ruyin in his arms, he reached out and grabbed the Wanshi bow on the table, turned over from under the wooden table to the window, and quickly glanced at the direction where the arrow had just shot.

With his own superior experience, Ren Tianming immediately found that the courtyard opposite was the most suspicious. But he didn't dare to take it lightly, and the archer on the opposite side was obviously also a sharpshooter, there was no doubt about it.

If he comes out at will, he will be in danger of being killed by an arrow at any time, which Ren Tianming knows better than anyone else.

After Adou's first arrow was fired, he didn't care about the result, but immediately prepared the second arrow. He has absolute confidence that the other party will not be solved by him with one arrow.

If you really shoot the opponent with one arrow, then it also proves that the archer in front of you is not a qualified archer.

It turned out that Adou was right, Ren Tianming really dodged the first arrow, and he had quickly disappeared from his sight, no longer appearing.

Ruyin only came back to her senses a little at this moment, and she looked at the sharp arrow behind her that was still shaking and whining.

Only then did she realize how dangerous she and Ren Tianming were just now, and she was still hiding under the table in fear, and she didn't dare to get up at all.

"What's going on?" Ruyin, who was in a panic, thought at this moment that what the two of them said just now was known by the sect leader, and this would be to kill her and Ren Tianming.

"Keep lying there and don't make a sound." Ren Tianming didn't look back, and roared in a low voice.

Ruyin didn't dare to disobey at all, she continued to lie on the ground as she said, and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Ren Tianming was already sure at this moment that the archers outside were hiding on the roof of the courtyard opposite. It was right in front of the window where he was hiding, and it was a good vantage point, and as a sharpshooter, he was sure of that.

Obviously, at this moment, Ren Tianming is already at a disadvantage, and the first opportunity is hidden in passivity. Like this, he didn't even dare to take another look at the situation outside.

Adou was still calm, staring directly at the window where Ren Tianming was hiding at the moment. As long as the other party shows a little flaw, he will not hesitate to shoot with an arrow.

As time passed, Ren Tianming had completely calmed down, leaning against the window, he simply closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.

But if you look closely at his expression, it is not difficult to see that he is paying close attention to any disturbances outside.

Now the two sides are more patient, and whoever loses patience is doomed to die.

From morning to evening, Ren Tianming and Adou have been in a stalemate, and no one dares to relax at all.

However, as night fell, Adou was the first to give up and choose to leave.

Under the black light and blindness, no matter how good his archery skills are, he can't do it!

Ren Tianming has also been waiting for night to fall, and he clearly knows that only when night falls will the archer outside choose to give up.

Adou left, but Ren Tianming didn't dare to get up immediately, he still waited until he felt completely safe in his heart before he began to try to investigate carefully.

In the end, he made sure that the archers outside had left, and Ren Tianming lit the oil lamp in the house.

Ruyin only then stood up from under the table, and she was terrified of the day. Ren Tianming is a sharpshooter, and such an archer is also scared like that, it can be seen that the person who shoots an arrow outside must be very powerful, at least like Ren Tianming, he is a sharpshooter.

"It's ......." Ruyin was still scared at the moment, and her tone was still a little trembling when she spoke.

Ren Tianming waved his hand to stop Ruyin from continuing, he would have returned to his usual cold and quiet appearance, only to see him open his mouth and stretch out three words: "Archer!" ”

Hearing this, Ruyin already understood everything, but she had even greater doubts in her heart: "Could it be that the sect leader found out about us and wanted to kill us?" ”

Ren Tianming shook his head: "No, I am the only archer in the Fusang Sect, and there is absolutely no second one." ”

Ruyin breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Then who is going to kill us?" ”

Ren Tianming fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he looked up at Ruyin and said coldly: "Don't go there tonight, stay at home." I'll find out! ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Ruyin to say more, he took the Wanshi bow and left directly through the window, and disappeared into the vast night in the blink of an eye.

Ruyin knew the danger of being targeted by the archers, and he didn't dare to slack off for the sake of his own life. As soon as Ren Tianming left, she immediately blew out the oil lamp, closed the doors and windows, and went to bed with her portable sword.

After nightfall, Adou felt that there was no longer a chance to send a second arrow, and he immediately chose to give up. Then returned to the place where he had agreed with Qingfeng, and the two quickly returned to Mao's mansion.

Mao Wenlong and Hong Chengchou were chatting in the living room about Shaanxi at the moment, when they heard movement outside, and hurriedly came in to report, saying that Adou and Qingfeng were back.

There was nothing to hesitate about, Mao Wenlong immediately asked Haoda to bring people in.

Adou is very weak at the moment, squatting all day, and he is always on alert, without the slightest moment of relaxation.

He is not only physically exhausted at the moment, but his mental strength is actually more depleted.

"See the General Soldier." Adou was saluting Mao Wenlong at this moment with the support of Qingfeng.

"What's wrong, are you hurt?" Mao Wenlong was shocked when he saw Adou's weak look.

With a wry smile on his face, Adou shook his head and explained, "No, it's just that I've been in a stalemate with that sharpshooter for a whole day, and I'm just going to be tired and hungry and almost collapse." ”

Hearing that this was just the case, Mao Wenlong was relieved, and immediately ordered the cook to bring some wine and food, and signaled that Adou would come back to talk after he was full of wine and food.

After Adou thanked him, he was not polite, he didn't eat a drop of water all day, he was already hungry, and he ate and drank nonsense when he picked up his rice bowl.

Such an appetite made Mao Wenlong look very envious, and seeing him eat sweetly, Mao Wenlong, who had just eaten for a short time, suddenly had the urge to eat again.

After a while, Adou was full of wine and food, and Mao Wenlong asked about what happened today and what Adou found?

Adou did not hide it, and told Mao Wenlong what happened. At the end, he concluded: "Chief soldier, now we can be sure that the archer is indeed a sharpshooter." The only pity is that I haven't seen him shoot an arrow yet, so it's not clear if he's using a Wanshi bow or not. ”

Mao Wenlong didn't care, waved his hand and said, "Well, these are not important, now tell me what you think of this archer, do you think he is your opponent?" ”

Adou hesitated for a moment, and once again exerted his modest nature: "Chief soldier, it's really hard to say now, but one thing is certain. The strength of me and that archer should be between the best, after all, after all, after I have the upper hand, he can't fight back and dare not take the lead. ”

Hearing this, Mao Wenlong was completely relieved, he just wanted to make sure that Adou had a fight with that archer. Now that I know that the strength is equal, it means that the next time I meet that archer, Mao Wenlong will no longer be helpless, which is enough.

But with a big scruple in his heart, Mao Wenlong was much more relaxed. After glancing at Hong Chengchou, he asked with a smile: "Adou, I am in urgent need of talented people under my command now, especially those who have both ability and political integrity like you." I wonder if you know someone like you? ”

Suddenly, Mao Wenlong asked like this, Adou obviously hadn't reacted yet, and after a while, he asked uncertainly: "Is the chief soldier going to recruit people?" ”

Mao Wenlong nodded: "Yes!" ”

Adou immediately frowned and recalled, Mao Wenlong didn't rush to interrupt when he saw him thinking, but let it go on.

But Adou's embarrassed appearance made Mao Wenlong feel stunned, and he also turned his head to look at Hong Chengchou. From the very beginning, Hong Chengchou patted his chest and said that Adou must know some talents who are as capable as him.

However, now it seems that Mao Wenlong feels that it is not what Hong Chengchou thinks. At least Adou still needs to think so hard, and in the end, I don't know if there is or not?

Hong Chengchou is also up and down in his heart at the moment, if Adou comes to the end, he doesn't know such a person. Then he really didn't have the face to face Mao Wenlong.

While the two anxious and anxious guys were waiting, Adou finally remembered something, and immediately said: "Chief soldier, I remember, my father once mentioned to me that our Dou family still has a family friend, the Ling family. This Ling family is also the inheritor of the Divine Bow, maybe as long as you find the Ling family, you can recruit a Divine Archer. ”

"Then do you know where the Ling family is now?" This is the key, Mao Wenlong opened his mouth and asked.

Adou showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, and said with a wry smile: "At that time, my father didn't mention that the Ling family was there, so he ....... ”

"Alas! Forget it, let's talk about it later. It's just that you haven't recognized some capable people except for this Ling family? Mao Wenlong was still unwilling, and asked again.

Adou shook his head and said with certainty: "No! ”

Seeing the disappointment on Mao Wenlong's face, Adou was anxious and hurriedly explained: "I was born two years after my family moved to this Ye County. Our Dou family is here to escape the world, and my father in order not to let the grievances on the rivers and lakes be entangled, so he directly closed the contact with the outside world. And I grew up in Ye County since I was a child, and it can be said that I have never stepped half a step out of Ye County. ”

After hearing this, Mao Wenlong already understood that it would be in vain to ask any more. Then he asked Adou to go down and have a good rest, and the rest of Qingfeng also asked him to closely monitor the Fusang Sect.

Qingfeng naturally didn't dare to disobey, and immediately retreated after receiving the order.

Only Hong Chengchou and Mao Wenlong were left in the hall, and the latter squinted and sneered and stopped talking. Adou's answer has proved that what Hong Chengchou said in the morning is his family's words.

Now the facts have proved that Adou only knows one Ling family, and this Ling family still doesn't know where it is. In fact, in other words, there is no difference between not saying it!

Hong Chengchou never expected such a result, he was indeed very embarrassed at the moment, and at this time he realized that he was too self-righteous.

wants to open his mouth to apologize to Mao Wenlong, obviously he can't pull down this old face, if he doesn't apologize, he really has some regrets in his heart.

Mao Wenlong obviously didn't want to have a stiff relationship with Hong Chengchou, he laughed and said, "Okay, isn't it just a trivial matter, you are so embarrassed." What has not been confirmed in the future, don't say too sure. ”

Hong Chengchou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Mao Wenlong said this, obviously breaking the embarrassing situation just now. This will Hong Chengchou is also considered a bachelor, and he hugged his fists and said: "Indeed, I am too self-righteous, and I admit my mistake in this regard." ”

Mao Wenlong waved his hand indifferently, and then said, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Now it is certain that we can't find any clues from Adou here. So what's next? Do you have any good ideas? ”

Hong Chengchou has learned the lesson just now, and now he doesn't dare to pretend to be deep or rely on the old and sell the old. Honestly: "People who really have the ability are rare, and they are unattainable." I think it's better to let it be. ”

Indeed, in troubled times, those who have the ability either come out to do it themselves, or have long been dragged into the gang. There are also some things that have been hidden deep in the world and ignored the outside world.

It's really hard to suddenly find such people to use for yourself. Mao Wenlong was also relieved, this matter was not in a hurry at all, and it had no effect to be in a hurry.

Mao Wenlong nodded in agreement with Hong Chengchou's proposal, and then said, "For now, let's get rid of that damn Fusang Sect first." Adou is back now, and how to deal with that sharpshooter has to be considered in the long run. ”

"Yes, the Fuso Sect and the Sharpshooter are the things that need to be solved urgently. If we don't get rid of that archer for a day, we won't be at peace for a day. Speaking of this, Hong Chengchou was also quite distressed.

Being targeted by such a sharpshooter, no one will have a comfortable life! Although Adou, who is also a sharpshooter, has come, before this matter is resolved, the safety of Mao's Mansion is still a big hidden danger.

Mao Wenlong saw that there was nothing he could do about the two laymen talking like this, so he defined it and said: "Then wait for tomorrow and let Adou talk about it himself!" After all, he is the key to dealing with that sharpshooter! ”

After the agreement, the two dispersed and went back to rest!

At this time, on the roof directly opposite the Mao Mansion, a black shadow was staring at the still brightly lit Mao Mansion with a cold gaze!
