Chapter 179: Deserters on the Road
"Boss, is it really okay for us to do this?"
Broken armor, scarred weapons, these are five soldiers who have come out of the battlefield, but now they are deserters.
"What else can I do. The one who spoke was a one-eyed old man, medium stature, thin build, wearing black iron armor, wrapped in a hero's scarf on his head, carrying a spear, while talking, he looked around vigilantly with the only eye left: "Is it possible, do you still want to go back?"
If you go back, it is naturally impossible to go back.
The other four shivered at the same time, those giant-like witch people were too terrifying, not only were they infinitely powerful, but they would not die.
Many colleagues died so miserably, some were killed in front of them, and once they were caught, it was even more miserable, because those Wu people were cannibals.
This is not a rumor, the food of the Wu people is partly animal meat, partly wild vegetable fruits, and partly human flesh.
Those who were caught by them were thrown alive into the huge cauldron and screamed so miserably that they could be heard for ten miles.
In order to hit the military spirit of the human race, the Wu people also performed outside Handan City, which made all the human soldiers feel cold.
"But ......," said a thin middle-aged man with a wince, "wouldn't it be more dangerous if we ran into such a small number of people." ”
"Rest assured. The one-eyed old man smiled: "Those Wu people are obviously fighting south, and there are not many people, so it is not appropriate to divide more troops, we are going east, it will definitely be safe." ”
The other four were relieved and continued to move forward silently.
"Wait. After walking for a while, the one-eyed old man suddenly stopped and listened: "What is this sound?"
"It seems to be...... Ringtones?" said one of them, somewhat uncertain.
"Alert!" The one-eyed old man's body was shocked, and he hurriedly put down the gun, grabbed it with both hands, and pointed the gun straight ahead.
The bell was getting closer and closer, and a figure loomed in front of him, and he was coming this way along the path.
"Dadongzi. The one-eyed old man roared.
"Yes!" Da Dongzi was the strongest of the five, he took out his bow, pressed it hard, quickly wound it, and then drew his arrow, put it on the bow, and aimed it in front of him.
As for the other three, the two tacitly carried shields to block the left and right sides of the one-eyed old man, and the thinnest middle-aged man drew his knife and protected Dadong's side.
The one-eyed old man shouted ahead, "Stop!"
The figure paused, and I continued in my direction.
The one-eyed old man's eyes flashed fiercely, and he no longer spoke, but silently estimated the distance.
Gradually, as he got closer and closer, the figure became clearer and clearer, and his appearance appeared in the eyes of several people.
He was wearing a hat, his face could not be seen clearly, and he was carrying a long knife, the kind of narrow long knife made the one-eyed old man's pupils shrink, he recognized the knife, and the person who used that kind of knife was not easy to mess with.
The bell at the head of the knife swayed, apparently from where the bell rang.
And on his body, a pair of fine-scale armor was hung, which gave the one-eyed old man a headache. Wearing obviously ill-fitting linen clothes and pants, and the boots on his feet made the one-eyed old man extremely vigilant, the dull color of the boots, I don't know how much blood it would stain to make this appearance.
"Boss, it's already twenty steps. Fine sweat broke out on Da Dongzi's forehead, obviously as a veteran of the battlefield, he also saw a lot of things, and his heart was extremely stressed.
"Wait. The one-eyed old man exhaled a breath of turbidity, he was originally going to wait for someone to get close to twenty steps before letting Dadong shoot him, but Dadong used a strong bow with one stone, and shot an arrow from a distance of twenty steps, and ordinary people couldn't react at all.
However, the person on the other side was different.
Looking at his figure, looking at his dress, he is obviously the kind of strongman in the army, with a distance of 20 steps, he is likely to be able to react, or dodge, or dial, plus the armor on his body, Da Dongzi may not even be able to hurt him.
"He took five more steps and shot him. The one-eyed old man said in a low voice, Da Dongzi nodded vigorously, pulled the string hard, and the bow made a creaking sound, and was bent into a full moon.
However, just as the two sides were sixteen paces apart, the man suddenly stopped.
All five seemed to hear the thud of the foot on the ground, and their hearts jumped at the same time, and a huge pressure rushed over them.
Dadongzi fell into a contradiction, he had already drawn the bow, if he couldn't shoot it in time, he couldn't guarantee the accuracy of the arrow, and suddenly, the sweat that broke out became more and more.
"Are you deserters?" asked the man opposite.
The old man laughed dryly: "What about the general?"
"I'm separated. The man on the other side replied, and then asked, "Where is the army now?"
"I don't know, I just know that I'm going to Chaoge City. ”
The man on the other side nodded slightly, and then said, "Put away that bow, it won't hurt me." ”
Da Dongzi looked at the one-eyed old man, the one-eyed old man turned his head and bowed slightly, Da Dongzi breathed a sigh of relief and put away his bow.
The man on the other side lifted his foot and continued to walk this way.
The five of them were very nervous, especially the very thin middle-aged man who was protecting Da Dongzi, and the knife in his hand was shaking.
"I don't know what the general is called. ”
"Ghost cry. ”
"It turned out to be the ghost crying general, looking up for a long time. Despite the strange name, and even though the one-eyed old man had never heard of a guy called General Devil Cry, he made the appearance that he was the famous General Devil Cry.
After five or six breaths, the two sides were only three steps apart, and the gun in the one-eyed old man's hand was about to poke into Devil's chest.
At this time, he saw the eyes of the ghost crying, and immediately gasped, after so many years in the army, he could be regarded as going south and north, but he had never seen such eyes, he couldn't help but gasp, and his heart was even more cowardly.
In a trance, he was easily brushed away by Ghost Cry and walked to the front.
"Why deserter?"
Everyone was silent for a long time, and the one-eyed old man sighed: "We are from the same village, and we have been away from home for 20 years. ”
The ghost cried slightly, and the one-eyed old man asked again, "Is the general going to arrest us back?"
"I'm not a Zhou person. The ghost cried, "What do you have to do with me?" ”
The five of them were immediately overjoyed, they knew that the general in front of them deliberately wanted to let them go.
"Thank you, General. The one-eyed old man hurriedly bowed his hand and was grateful: "The general is really a good person, if there is an afterlife, he is willing to repay him as a cow and a horse." ”
The ghost cried disappreciatively, and said casually: "Don't use it to live, repay it now!"
"Hmm......" The one-eyed old man was choked, and now he wanted to slap himself, and said with a sad face: "General, please speak." ”
"I'm going to Chaoge City, how do I go?"
The one-eyed old man breathed a sigh of relief again, only to feel that his heart was a little throbbing, the ups and downs were too exciting, he was a little old, but he couldn't bear it.
Finally sent this general called Ghost Cry, and the five of them continued on their way, and after walking for long, they came across a village.
One man said, "Boss, let's rest." ”
Before the one-eyed old man could speak, Da Dongzi hurriedly stopped: "There seems to be someone in the village." ”
"Isn't someone better?"
"You idiot. The one-eyed old man directly slapped someone: "Don't you want to think about what kind of ordinary goods can be staying here at this time, hurry up, let's get out of here quickly." ”
"Oh!"
The five of them left in a hurry, and not long after, a woman came out of the village and walked along the path they had just come.
After a while, an old fisherman came out of the village and headed towards the place where the five had left.
