Chapter 176: Five Tiger Generals, Eyeless Soldiers(1/2)

It was already late at night and the rain continued.

The night sky of the Fengfeng Ferry is covered with large pot-like dark clouds. Among the dark clouds, thunder rolls, and under the dark clouds, heavy rain pours down. The water of the Yellow River originates from the sky. Now it catches the rain, and in the dark night, the waves are surging and howling.

The rain slapped the yellow earth, the water puddles were everywhere, and the mud was muddy. Since it was midnight, the inns at the market were already closed. Originally, when there was a plague weather, how could anyone come to complain at this time?

And then again, even if someone comes to complain, they have no place to live for him?

"Haqiu!!!"

The rain was still falling, and at this moment, a branch-like lightning in the dark clouds shattered through the night sky. In the short distance, there was a group of men in black trembling under the three crooked trees on the edge of the market.

That's right, they are the "Former" Tiger Camp who dared to endorse the unfortunate. The leader is Cheng Kegui. Although he has a vicissitudes of life, he is only twenty-eight this year, which is younger than Shisheng.

Even Cheng Kegui himself didn't know why he was so anxious. He still remembered that his mother told him that he had a beard at the age of three and an Adam's apple at the age of eight, and an old blind man who could pretend to tell fortunes at the age of twelve to cheat money everywhere. He had a good relationship with him and his brothers were talking about him secretly, asking if he was fermented with feces, otherwise why would twenty-eight die so outrageously than forty-six?

However, Cheng Kegui no longer had the leisure and elegance to think about this. At that time, the few of them were so happy that they were photographed by the rain that they couldn't help but sneeze. They saw one person on the side stroke his face and said to Cheng Kegui: "Brother Cheng, I don't understand why we are all here and we are still being patted by water? Why don't we stay in the room? "

Cheng Kegui stood in the rain, but he turned his head and squinted his eyes and said to those people, "You're so stupid, have you forgotten what we are here? Why can't you even bear this little rain? Just think of taking a bath?"

How did they come here?

It’s not that Cheng Kegui’s ears are causing trouble. You know, although Cheng Kegui has been in trouble, his head is very tight. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to get to where he is today. I think they were scared by Chiu today and fled in a panic. But when they recovered, Cheng Kegui felt something was wrong, because he was eavesdropping on the conversation between the two women in a distance. In their conversation, they once mentioned the words “Three Ghosts of Wushan”, “Peacock Village” and “True Dragon Magic Weapon”.

From their words and skills, Cheng Kegui inferred that these two girls should be from Peacock Village, and they said that their companion was a three ghost in Wushan named Shisheng. It is very likely that the guy who snatched their blood snail that day.

When he thought of this, Cheng Kegui was immediately overjoyed. He knew that this was a desperate situation. He really didn't expect that they would meet that boy again in this poor place.

They had already known that kid's purpose of snatching the blood snail. It was for the last clue of the magic weapon in troubled times that such a big thing happened in Dragon Lake. The boy said that he was looking for a real dragon and a magic weapon. Let's not talk about the real dragon for now, but as he talked about the "magic weapon", he ignited hope in Cheng Kegui's heart.

If you want to say that it is a magic weapon in troubled times, if you get it, why are you worried about being sad?

Although that guy named Shisheng is ruthless, he can't stand the enemy's openness and secretness. Anyway, they had this plan at the beginning. After the boy found the magic weapon, he would steal it while he was not paying attention. Wouldn't he have a happy life?

It is said that these guys are already at a loss, so after hearing Cheng Kegui's thoughts, the fire of hope really appeared in everyone's hearts.

Wealth and honor are in danger, and they have no reason not to fight. And you see, they are all unlucky now, so they don’t believe that they can be unlucky again?

Since ancient times, there is a saying: Don’t resist everything, so even they themselves did not expect that they would be even more unlucky.

Just after they hurriedly followed the people to the market, they didn't expect it to rain heavily again and the inn was full, so they could only stand here and drink water for half a night.

Cheng Kegui once comforted them: It's okay, it's a shower, and it stopped in a while. But the rain seemed to be free, but it got heavier and heavier, so no one believed in Cheng Kegui's crow's mouth at that time.

So after hearing Cheng Kegui's words, they immediately felt contempt for him: What is it like to take a bath? Is it that simple? Is it good to have been taking a day?

Is this a bath? Isn't this a turtle?

So after Cheng Kegui finished talking about his "bathing theory", some people who had already given up began to say to Cheng Kegui: "Why, Brother Cheng, why don't you take a bath here yourself first? Brother Brother can't stand it anymore. Let's go to a hotel to rest and find you a bath towel."

After saying that, those people turned around and left. They had already agreed to be a bandit. With their ability, why should they listen to the owners of the shop? If you don’t let them live, don’t we, you will fight and force them to live?

Seeing that they were like this, Cheng Kegui rushed forward and stopped the few people and said fiercely: "Don't go!!"

"Why are you allowed to go!" Finally someone broke out, and they shouted at Cheng Kegui with a fierce look: "It's your business to be like being a turtle here, why do you still have to implicate us?"

This sentence was full of strong smell of gunpowder, and Cheng Kegui could naturally hear it. He knew that if he didn't deal with it carefully, there would be a strife in the middle, and all his efforts would be wasted. So he gritted his teeth at that time and shouted to everyone: "What does it mean to implicate you!! Are you so useless? Forgot what we are doing here? You can smash a store, but you don't think about who lives here. If they are alarmed, which of you is their opponent? Wouldn't the suffering we suffer be in vain? Is what I said right? If it is not right, then you go. Let's go!!"

After saying that, Cheng Kegui made way out in fear. To be honest, if those people really wanted to go, he would have no choice, but fortunately, his words still awakened everyone.

Everyone, look at me and I look at you, and when they think about it, it is true that this is true. You must know that they have suffered too much along the way, but what is not there? They also understand in their hearts that now they have finally found the goal of struggle, how can they give up so easily?

Thinking of this, everyone was depressed, and Cheng Kegui breathed a sigh of relief. He understood that after this, his status among the people would definitely be higher, so although he was in the rain, he was in a good mood. At this time, he saw everyone with a frustrated look. He said excitedly to them with a general-oriented tone: "What are you afraid of? Are you just getting wet a little rain? You must know that Lao Meng once said that if God gave great responsibilities to this person, he must first suffer his will, yes, or suffer his will. But you must believe me, the future is beautiful, and with me, you will definitely become famous one day!!"

His words really made everyone angry. So everyone gradually regained their confidence. Even if they were watered by the rain, it seemed that it was not that difficult to get over it. So someone excitedly said to Cheng Kegui: "Is it really Brother Cheng?"

"All scholars, can I lie to you?" Cheng Kegui whistled to the sky: "I, Cheng Kegui, have made another vow. If I can't lead everyone to become famous and powerful in the future, I would rather die from thunder than to death!"

These words really made everyone feel excited, so they all shouted passionately in the storm, and the scene was quite touching.

In this way, the night passed and the rain still did not stop.

Some families were happy and some were sad. This night, Shisheng didn't sleep well.

I thought that the few people had a very scheming conversation with Mu last night. It was not until late at night that everyone rested with the sound of rain. Zhiyuan and Xiaobai slept in the wing room of Mu's suite. Because there was no room, Shisheng slept in the woodshed after getting the consent of the store. In fact, he had long been used to sleeping in the wind and dining in the open, so it didn't matter where he slept.

But for some reason, his sleep during this night was intermittent, maybe because he heard the "Shadow of the True Dragon". Shisheng always felt that the "angry" here was a little strange, but he had no idea why it was like this. In addition, the widow whipped Fan Xiaoxiao, the woman looked cruel and ruthless, and Shisheng had obviously mocked him before, so he didn't dare to be careless in the middle of the night. All things combined together, Shisheng didn't even sleep well that night.

At dawn, Xiaobai and Zhiyuan came to find him. Seeing that his eyes were quite heavy, Xiaobai asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you? Didn't sleep well last night?"

"Don't mention it." Shisheng said to the two while picking a straw from his head: "There were wolves howling in the second half of the night, and they didn't stop all night."

That is not howling of the wolf, it is the passionate cry of Cheng Kegui and his group.

But Shisheng naturally didn't know, so after drinking some porridge in a hurry, Mu came downstairs, and Fan Xiaoxiao and two maids followed. Last night, she had promised Shisheng to go out with them and also listen to the legend of the "dragon" mentioned by the old fisherman.

After a night, Fan Xiaoxiao changed his expression and looked at Shisheng with two eyes, with cold eyes. Shisheng did not look at him on the pretext, but just kept drinking porridge.

Although the rain did not stop, the rain became much smaller. So everyone went out and the servants of Mu walked towards a dirt house not far from the market. There were many such dirt houses, which were temporary places for local fishermen and boatmen to live. There was no way, people waited for time and time, and for the sake of life, they could only live here, just waiting for God to be kind to go into the water to earn food after the rain stopped.

They found the old fisherman as they wished, but did not get very useful clues. The old fisherman only told them about the local customs and the occurrence of the "Dragon Shadow" in the Yellow River in recent years. What he said was not as detailed as what Mu said, so Shisheng was still a little disappointed. He thought to himself: It seems that he still has to sneak into the Yellow River to find out.

Although they were looking for the true dragon emperor, Shisheng still wanted to go down the river to see it. After all, if there were really dragons, they might not find some clues in it.

So since the fisherman's house came out, Shisheng whispered his thoughts to the two. Since Mu was very frustrated in the inn, he also wanted to take this opportunity to take a walk back in the light rain. So Zhiyuan and Xiaobai accompanied him, while Shisheng left first.

Looking at Shisheng's back, Fan Xiaoxiao thought. This smart woman might have thought of something, but only she herself can understand.

And the stupid thief who were also watching Shisheng's every move behind his back was the tiger camp who had already changed into stolen clothes. They also didn't sleep all night, had been soaked in the fishing night, and looked clean during the day. So they sent two people to sneak into the inn and stole some old clothes and dry food. After eating some in a hurry, they kept lurking around Ruxin Inn.

Because the rain covered the smell on them, even Shisheng did not notice them.

In this way, they followed Shisheng all the way to the old fisherman's home. After a few people left, they immediately entered the house and gave the old fisherman some money. They learned from him what they had just talked about.

Cheng Kegui was puzzled. He thought to himself that this person was asking about the "Long"? Could it be that this is a clue to the magic weapon? When he thought of Long, Cheng Kegui couldn't help but recall his experience of wetting his pants yesterday, and he was immediately scared. At this moment, the person responsible for following Shisheng had returned to report to him. He said that the boy had jumped into the Yellow River and didn't know what he was doing.

After hearing the news, Cheng Kegui became more convinced that there was a treasure in the river, so he led everyone to the place where Shisheng came to the water.

Of course, he naturally dared not let him go into the water. After all, he had seen the shock of the dragon in the river yesterday, but fortunately they had no intention of going into the water. This time they were just investigating the information and were prepared for it in the future.

So after they looked at the river for a while, Cheng Kegui thought: Now, I'm just waiting for that little brat to find the magic weapon. Then......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Thinking of this, Cheng Kegui was in a good mood, so he took turns to keep an eye on it, and the rest returned to the market. After so much trouble, he finally learned some good news today, so they found a good restaurant to eat and drink to celebrate.

I have been vegetarian for a while, so this meal must be a big piece of meat and a big bowl of wine. After three rounds of wine, Cheng Kegui and his men were drunk. At this moment, five or six people dressed in a straw hat walked into the hotel. Cheng Kegui didn't pay attention at that time, but just continued to brag about the better life of the future. He saw a person next to him standing up and holding the wine said excitedly to Cheng Kegui: "Brother Cheng, thanks to you this time. I finally understand what a small impotence means to mess with big plans. If it weren't for you, how could brothers and others have the chance to turn over?"

Cheng Kegui laughed, and someone next to him spoke: "That's right, our Brother Cheng is worthy of being a scholar. We just look at things thoroughly. With Brother Cheng here, what are we afraid of? What are the tiger camps? I'm no longer interested in them. If they want to chase us, let him come. I don't believe that Brother Cheng can do anything to us."

"I'm not bragging about this." Cheng Kegui was already praised by them at that time, and with the stimulation of the strong wine, he stood up and patted his chest and said, "Brothers follow me. What if someone comes in the camp? You know, I'm afraid of them. What if you don't want them to do? Do you want them to come? Come on?"

He was speechless, and at this moment, Cheng Kegui suddenly felt a pain in his back, and then with a snap, a bowl fell to the ground.

Everyone was furious and saw five people on the table behind them also looking at them. It was obvious that the bowl was thrown away by them.

Oh my, aren't you looking for trouble?

You should know that my brothers have been angry for so long, and now they can still bear it? So someone slammed the table and cursed: "How many things do you mean? Do you know who he is? Believe it or not, I'll kill you here?"

And the five people looked at them, and at the end, one of them said unhappily: "Just because of you guys, you still want to touch us?"

"What the hell are you talking about?" After hearing the man's words, everyone was furious, stood up and pulled out the weapons in their hands. When the shopkeeper saw that they were about to take action again, he couldn't help but be frightened and immediately got into the table.

Cheng Kegui looked at the few people who were seeking death in front of him, and wanted to establish his authority in front of everyone, so he reached out to stop everyone, and then said aloud in a master's tone: "All scholars, don't cause trouble to the people. Do you guys dare to come out and fight?"

You can't say it, as soon as this sentence came out, they immediately seemed to be much higher. One of the five people stood up and came close to him. Everyone thought Cheng Kegui would give him a warning in an instant. But they didn't expect that Cheng Kegui was stunned when he looked at the man.

Because the man lifted his cloak and exposed a precious sword around his waist. The knife handle was red, swallowed the mouth in a tiger shape, and the scabbard was wrapped in leopard skin, which was very exquisite.

You should know why Cheng Kegui was stunned because he recognized this knife. This knife was the sword of the five tiger generals under the command of the "Forehand General" of the Tiger Camp!!

Cheng Kegui's mind buzzed, and cold sweat flowed down. At the same time, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that everyone was familiar with him. Isn't this one of the five tiger generals?

God, how could he be here!

Just when Cheng Kegui didn't know what to do, the five people had already stood up and showed their weapons to them at the same time. In an instant, everyone's wine was awakened. They were shocked and didn't dare to speak again. You must know that these five people are all capable generals under the general. The Taoist practice is more than a little higher than them. Now that they are in their hands, where can they still have a way out?

And at this moment, the leader of the Five Tiger Generals said coldly: "Shameless. Come with me."

After saying that, the five people left the meal money and got up, while everyone was crying and didn't know what to do. Someone asked Cheng Kegui in a low voice: "Brother Cheng, what should we do now?"

"Don't ask me." Cheng Kegui said with a sad face: "I'm just a scholar."

There is no way. They really have one way in front of them, that is, follow the five people. Otherwise, they might not have lived half the time for incense sticks.

So, Cheng Kegui and his group followed the five people except the restaurant with a feeling of attending funerals, and then walked towards the market in the rain.

After walking about a mile, the five people led them into a small woods and then stood still. Cheng Kegui and the others were so scared that they almost cried. The leader of the Five Tiger General suddenly turned around and shouted, "Don't you kneel down yet!?"

Crackly, this is better than anything else. How dare everyone who was frightened at that time hesitated? So they all knelt on the ground tremblingly, and the leader drew out the cold sword and came to Cheng Kegui, and said to them: "You must be Cheng Kegui, a rebel army who had escaped with magic weapons before. Let me ask you, do you know what military discipline punishment should be accepted as a deserter?"

"It's unfair!" Cheng Kegui had long ignored the matter of why these people were here. In order to survive, he could not care much about it. So he quickly told all his experiences in one breath like dumplings.

"That's it. Please check it out and let us go!" Everyone begged bitterly.

But their words seemed to have failed. The leader of the Five Tiger Generals sneered and said to them: "It is useless to make sense in the final analysis. Today I will deal with you with military law and die."

Speaking of this, all five people drew their swords.

Now it's over! Cheng Kegui and his friends were completely disappointed, and they seemed to have no strength to curse fate. The only thing they could do at that time seemed to be waiting for the god of death to slowly approach.

But this time, the god of death has not yet arrived.

Just as the five tigers were drawing their swords, a slow and old voice suddenly came from behind a tree not far away: "Forget it, there is a shortage of people now, and there will be big things in a few days, so let's leave these people's lives for the time being."

And this person's words were really useful, and for some reason, after hearing the sound, the five tiger generals stopped and then turned around to salute.
To be continued...
