The little bosses present were all frightened, for fear that the two in front of them were not the main masters, but unfortunately soon a person who said to know the main lord came, and he identified these little bosses with a completely cold heart, and the main lord ran away!

Even the new Qu Shuai was so frightened that he almost collapsed to the ground, and the messenger let out cruel words before leaving, if he couldn't catch the person wanted by the great sage and good teacher after dawn, everyone present would die!

Just as they were desperate, there was a shout of killing from the southeast, and the leaders could hardly believe their ears, could it be that those people got lost in the dark and came back?

Don't think about it too much, it's a matter of small lives, this time the enthusiasm of all the small leaders has been fully mobilized, leaving only a dozen thieves to guard Cheng Guan and Gao Teng, scrambling to lead the others to rush to the southeast.

Although nothing could be seen except for the sporadic fire, the remaining dozen or so thieves still turned their heads and looked southeast from time to time, hoping to get the news of the capture of the other party.

Wu Chang Niu Er was born poor, his parents didn't even give a name to both fell ill and died, he only knew that he still had a starving brother, Niu Er has been wandering and begging for a living, he has been a thief for nearly ten years, Qu Shuai has changed five or six, everything is more innumerable, he has his secret is that the premonition is very effective, every time he feels bad before the war, Niu Er will find a chance to escape, and if he can't run, he will play dead, and he will continue to beg when he is caught by the official army, and he will be a thief again when he is coerced by the thief army, so he has traveled most of Yizhou and has been living well.

This time, Niu Er's premonition was very bad, and the feeling was very strong, but he never found a chance to slip away, until the unlucky people who had escaped reappeared, and the leaders ran to surround them, and finally no one was watching, Niu Er's mind moved again, looking around at his companions who didn't know each other, ready to find a gap to escape.

His heart was beating more and more, Niu Er didn't dare to delay any longer, and slowly moved his body into the darkness lightly, and after being sure that his companion couldn't see it, he threw away his weapon and pulled his legs away.

It's a pity that his good luck came to an end, a big hand like iron tongs covered his mouth and nose, and before he could struggle his neck to get cold, he felt his strength being drained quickly, "It's over!" Still a step slow! Niu Er lost consciousness before he even felt the pain.

When everyone arrived, Cheng Guan's consciousness was already blurred, and he couldn't recognize Liu Qilai, but he still subconsciously wanted to raise his hand and wave the iron sword to drive them away, Liu Qi didn't care about the tears on his face at this time, and checked the injuries of the two with trembling hands, confirming that the two were just in a coma with excessive blood loss, and they regained their composure after not being in danger of life for the time being.

Since he didn't have any medicine on him, he had to re-bandage the wounds of the two first, carry them and find someone else to join them.

Although the thieves who stayed in the village had a great advantage in numbers, because they had originally gathered here temporarily from all over the vicinity, they nominally obeyed the orders of Qu Shuai, who had been hacked to death by Zhang Jiao's envoy, but now that the envoy has left, Qu Shuai is dead, how can anyone listen to the words of the new Qu Shuai?

And Gan Ning clearly saw this breakthrough, and led a few subordinates to wait for an opportunity in the dark, whenever he encountered a group of thieves who shouted orders, he immediately killed from behind like lightning and took the head of its leader, while the remaining thieves rarely resisted, and most of them scattered in a hurry.

The thieves, who had no concept of coordinated operations, lost their command again, and the degree of chaos can be imagined, and the already not very strong will was quickly completely crushed by their own people who were constantly disrupting!

Seeing that the situation was developing in the direction he wanted to see, Gan Ning quickly gathered his subordinates when he saw that it was good, and quickly found Liu Qi and the others to prepare to finally rush out of the village and flee away.

Driving the panicked thieves to open the way, everyone passed the burned bamboo building and encountered a group of forty or fifty thieves who had barely gathered together.

The gathering of these thieves is the new Qu Shuai who was promoted in the line of fire, although he does not look strong, he is eight feet tall and handsome, and he also has a majestic appearance in armor and a knife, at least his tall body can bring some sense of security to the frightened thieves behind him.

The new Qu Shuai's surname is Lu Mingliang, after he was originally a businessman, his father used most of the money earned from the small business to study for Lu Liang to visit famous teachers, hoping that his only son could learn and excel, and could get rid of his cheap business that was despised by the world.

It's a pity that Lu Liang is not a good student who is diligent and studious, and like many children who don't like to learn, he has not been able to get a full stomach for ten years, and Lu Liang's biggest gain is to associate his restless heart with the heroes of the war and killing in history.

Lu Liang, who had poor grades and low background, naturally could not have the opportunity to become a leader, so he was idle all day long, mingling in the market with a group of gentlemen and scoundrels, and finally listened to the demagoguery of a so-called "preacher master" with a dozen or a dozen social idle people who were full of whimsical ideas or were strongly dissatisfied with life, and went away from the thief without hesitation.

Lu Liang still inherited some of the unique calculating cleverness of the businessman in his father, who was angry with him, plus he was literate and hyphenated, so he was quickly favored by the illiterate Qu Shuai, was promoted to his think tank, and was also decently given the title of "Military General".

The action to arrest Liu Qi Lu Liang is clear, he not only saw the legendary great sage and good teacher, but also participated in the whole process of the highest level of planning, since getting the news of Liu Qi's whereabouts in Guling, the great sage and good teacher personally came to convene the core of Taiping Dao in Yizhou, mobilized almost all the forces that can be mobilized to lay a net for the young man named Liu Qi.

For the sake of this young great sage and good teacher, he even watched the strongest Xu Xi department in Yizhou Dao be wiped out in Jiangzhou and ignored it, which shows how much the great sage and good teacher value this person, if anyone can capture this person, he can rise to prominence, if he can be appreciated and follow the great sage and good teacher, the day of the future change of dynasty will be from the dragon minister!

It's a pity that Qu Shuai made meritorious contributions, and after getting the news that Liu Qi appeared in Linjiang County, he only brought more than 200 people to surround it, if he could wait for two days for the great sage and good teacher to lead enough people, how could he end up at this point? !

At this moment, Lu Liang completely forgot that he wanted to monopolize the great merit and contribute his own Qu Shuai to throw off the friendly army and act alone, Lu Liang and his Qu Shuai, who did not know the art of war, thought that more than 200 people were not able to deal with four people? Even if Gan Ning and the others appeared unexpectedly, in their eyes, it was just a thin bone under the fat that could be swallowed in a few more bites.

Unexpectedly, this bone was harder than iron, and first a small courtyard was guarded as impregnable, if it weren't for a few small groups of friendly troops who rushed to grab the merit when they heard the news, they were afraid that their own people would be eaten by prey that was only a quarter of their own.

When he learned that the prey had fled unnoticed, Qu Shuai died, and Lu Liang's spirit almost collapsed.

But Lu Liang didn't run away, he was really unwilling, now he is Qu Shuai, although he knew that the position of Qu Shuai might only change hands until dawn, but he was really reluctant to let go in his heart, so he was waiting, waiting for a miracle to appear and the pursuers could capture Liu Qi, and he could keep a bright future!

Lu Liang, whose mind was blank, waited blankly, feeling that he was in a dream, everything that happened in the past few days was a dream scene, and when his subordinates reported that the prey was going and returned, Lu Liang did not react at all, but kept muttering slurred words in his mouth, until his subordinates pulled him up and let him hear the shouting of killing before he woke up.

The excited Lu Liang looked elated as if he had captured Liu Qi, and hurriedly gathered his subordinates and rushed over.

It's a pity that the cruel reality ruthlessly shattered Lu Liang's dream, and the cunning prey did not fight Lu Liang head-on at all, but went around and around, suddenly rushed out and bit hard when he was unprepared, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Until this time, Lu Liang had not given up his dream, and stubbornly believed that the prey was fighting the trapped beasts, and he could crush them if he worked harder, even if most of his men escaped, but now there are still more people around him than the other party.

The wreckage of the bamboo building that was still burning illuminated the two sides of the confrontation, although there were many thieves under Lu Liang, none of them dared to rush forward, Gan Ning did not rush to order an attack when he saw this, he was also very tired, and he had to take the opportunity to recover some physical strength.

Now counting the incapacitated wounded there are only twenty-seven people in total, and the main force of the team has become those gangsters under Guan Zhao, compared with Gan Ning and Guan Zhao, their martial arts are sparse and ordinary, if they encounter a real confrontation between the two armies, I am afraid that no one can survive until now, but they can fight guerrilla attacks in the dark and labyrinthine alleys of houses and alleys, but they are what they are best at, dealing with unorganized thieves who are about to collapse, although they do not kill many enemies, it is more than enough to protect themselves.

On the other hand, there are only four of Gan Ning's subordinates who can stand, and if they form a phalanx during the day, it will be difficult to gain the upper hand even against three or five times the number of thieves, but in this harsh environment, they obviously can't adapt to it, even if they are as strong as Gan Ning, they are also in the chaos of the army.

Under Gao Tan's reminder, Liu Qi found that a long opening in the clavicle of his right shoulder kept bleeding, and the blood that was about to boil cooled down.

After this relaxation, Liu Qi felt pain everywhere in his body, his clothes had already leaked everywhere, and there was a bruise under every hole, but compared to others, Liu Qi was much more decent, and there were only three wounds that saw blood, except for the one on his right shoulder, which had stopped the bleeding on his own.

Recalling the scene when he was injured at that time, Liu Qi couldn't help but be afraid, if this knife deviated half an inch to the left, then his carotid artery would be cut......

Although Yu Ji said that he would not die if he was seriously injured with the protection of the Taiping Sutra, Liu Qi didn't believe it at all, or he couldn't believe it, although he had personally experienced the unimaginable things such as the Heavenly Array, the Heavenly Book, and so on, Liu Qi still didn't dare to risk his own life to test whether the Taiping Sutra's body protection was really as magical as Yu Ji said.

Liu Qi looked at Gao Jing and Gao Tan nodded gratefully at them, if it weren't for the two of them desperately protecting them, there would be more than these three cuts on their bodies.
