"Attack the mountain!"
Zhang Long took the lead with a knife in hand, like a tiger descending from the mountain or a dragon emerging from the sea.
Swoosh! A whistling arrow broke through the air and exploded in the sky.
at the same time.
Several arrows were shot at Zhang Long and his companions, who were spies responsible for outer perimeter security.
Ding ding!
With a flash of the knife, Zhang Long split the arrow with ease.
As he was at the third level of body refinement, it was difficult for arrows to get close to him. Even if they did, it was difficult for them to cause serious damage to him.
After achieving success in skin refining, the skin will be as leathery as cowhide and difficult to be damaged by ordinary swords. After completing flesh refining, the muscle strength will increase dramatically and the defense will be greatly improved.
Even if the arrow manages to break through the skin, it will get stuck in the muscles.
Zhou Chen did not stand out too much. He had already discovered the hidden spy, but he did not shoot him.
Instead, he waited until the enemy was exposed before raising his hand and shooting two arrows, killing the exposed spy with one shot.
"Good archery!"
Zhang Long praised and continued to move forward with his men.
We encountered many ambushes along the way.
But with Zhang Long, a warrior of the third level of physical training, leading the charge, and Zhou Chen, a sharpshooter of the second level of physical training, assisting them, they pushed forward easily.
This is the power of a warrior.
Even if ordinary people occupy the advantage of terrain and defend themselves, they cannot stop the warriors.
Half an hour later.
Zhou Chen followed Zhang Long and his party to the gate of Wolong Village, where they saw many archers standing at the gate, ready for battle.
This is the most important checkpoint in Wolong Mountain.
As long as we break through this gate, Wolong Mountain will also be broken.
"Zhang County Lieutenant, I don't know how Wolong Mountain has offended us. I have troubled you to mobilize your troops. If you have offended us, please forgive me. I will definitely offer you a generous gift to make amends in the future!"
Tie Xiong held a ferocious mace about ten feet long in his hand, and looked at Zhang Long like an iron tower, bowing and speaking.
"Stop talking nonsense and hand over the county lord's daughter immediately, otherwise I will destroy your Wolong Mountain in an instant!"
Zhang Long pointed his long sword, his voice and expression were stern.
"The daughter of a county noble? What county noble daughter?"
Tiexiong was stunned, full of confusion, and cried out in injustice:
"My Lord County Lieutenant, are you mistaken? I don't have any daughter of the County Lord. Even if I had the guts of heaven, I wouldn't dare to have any idea of robbing the County Lord's daughter!"
Although he wanted to lure Chen Fan over, he couldn't show it. Moreover, he had to pretend that they did it themselves and there was no one behind it.
Since there is no one behind the scenes, bandits like them naturally dare not openly oppose the government and must deny it.
Unless you can't hide it anymore.
There are more than a hundred people in Wolong Mountain. All of them know that Chen Feng has been arrested, and most of them have already lined up.
No matter how he tries to argue, Zhang Long will definitely find out unless he is a good-for-nothing.
Things turned out exactly as he expected.
When Zhang Long saw him mention the county lord's daughter, the faces of the bandits at the village gate changed, with fear and uneasiness, and he knew that Chen Feng must be here.
These are the people who did it.
Zhang Long heaved a sigh of relief, but his eyes became even colder, and he shouted:
"Stop your bullshit! I'll count to three and you hand over your enemy immediately, or I'll attack you!"
"Sir, this is a misunderstanding. We really didn't..."
"three!"
"two!"
"Zhang Long!"
Tiexiong roared, the humility on his face was replaced by violence, and he stopped pretending.
"Zhang Long, don't blame me for not reminding you. If you dare to take a step forward, I will throw down the head of your county lord's daughter!"
“You can try!”
Tiexiong had a hideous smile on his face, cold and cruel.
Zhang Long was in a dilemma and he had no doubt about the opponent's methods.
Since the other party dared to rob the county magistrate of his daughter's gold, killing him is even more of a piece of cake.
If he was the cause of the death of the county lord's daughter, then he would be guilty of a great crime!
"Tie Xiong, if you dare to hurt the county lord's daughter, you will surely die!"
Zhang Long started arguing with Tiexiong, and the two sides reached a stalemate.
But there were supplies in Wolong Mountain, and Zhang Long and his group came in a hurry, so they couldn't hold out for too long.
Zhang Long has secretly sent someone to notify Chen Fan.
Chen Fan must be the one to make the decision on this matter.
Tiexiong asked his men to bring a throne, and he sat there, eating and drinking, leisurely and comfortable.
He was not panicked at all.
He knew that Zhang Long must have asked someone to notify the county magistrate Chen Fan and ask for help.
But this is exactly what he wanted!
"Tiexiong, if you release the county lord's daughter, I can let you leave safely!"
"I won't believe you unless the county lord promises it himself!"
Zhou Chen stood quietly aside. He had no intention of making any contribution, nor was he too lazy to think about how to save people.
A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.
He just needs to do his job well.
After all, in everyone's eyes, he was just a warrior who had completed skin refining and had just been promoted to the second level of body refining.
However, he did not waste time. His soul merged with Ji Fengxia in the Fengyue Treasure Mirror to practice dual cultivation, and he did not miss any opportunity to earn Fengyue points.
…
Qinghe City.
County government office.
"Asshole!"
"court death!"
When Chen Fan got the news, he was furious and extremely angry.
After being angry, Chen Fan did not get carried away. Wolongshan had never provoked the government before, but this time they dared to touch his daughter. Could there be someone behind the scenes?
County Magistrate Chen Dao pondered and said, "County Master, there must be something fishy going on. I think it would be better to spend some money and ask the Salt Gang and the Fishery Gang to help rescue the people."
What he meant was to tell Chen Fan that he couldn't do it himself.
Chen Fan has completed bone refining and entered the fifth level of body refining. In Qinghe City, only the heads of the three major families and the two leaders of the Salt Gang and the Fishing Gang have this level of cultivation.
“Although there is only one road in Wolong Mountain and there are cliffs behind it, warriors at the third or fourth level of physical training can climb up.”
Chen Fan pondered and said, "Zhang Long and the others are in the front to attract attention. You go to the Salt Gang and the Fisherman Gang and ask them to send people to sneak in from the back mountain to rescue Feng'er!"
"If you can rescue Feng'er, I will reward you generously!"
"Yes, sir!"
Chen Dao left in a hurry and came to the Salt Gang and Fishing Gang branches in Qinghe City.
The leaders of the two gangs heard the news, thought for a moment, and agreed. They each sent a third-level body-refining expert to go.
Two masters of the third level of body refining quietly left the city and rushed to Wolong Mountain as quickly as possible.
When they arrived at Wolong Mountain, they quietly went to the back mountain.
"Chen Fan didn't come!"
On a mountaintop behind Wolong Mountain, a woman in white looked down at the two warriors climbing up the cliff and raised her eyebrows: "Chen Fan, that old fox!"
She knew the operation had failed.
If she killed these two third-level body-refining warriors, Chen Fan would be more vigilant and would not come.
But if you don't kill.
It is impossible to stop the bandits in Wolong Mountain.
"Forget it, let's not alert the enemy!"
The woman in white sighed inwardly and gave up the action.
As for sneaking into the county government office to kill Chen Fan, she could do it with her strength, but killing the county magistrate in the county government office would be like stomping on the face of the Daqian officials.
Although Daqian was established 800 years ago, its days are numbered, and local sects and gangs are at their peak, occupying every inch of land and ruling the land.
But order has not collapsed after all and still dominates the land of Daqian.
If she dared to go to the county government office and kill the county magistrate, Daqian would definitely send strong men to investigate thoroughly.
Once the imperial court gets serious about it, not only her, but even the forces behind her won’t dare to intervene.
Kill her and make an example of her to scare the monkeys. It's easy.
If Chen Fan was lured to Wolong Mountain and killed, the commotion would be smaller.
It was because the county magistrate was ineffective in suppressing the bandits and was incompetent, so he was killed by the bandits.
Afterwards, the imperial court sent people to wipe out Wolong Mountain to demonstrate the court's majesty, and the matter was over.
The woman in white remained motionless as she watched the two third-level body-refining warriors climbing up. The two warriors seemed not to have seen her and just passed by her.
The woman in white turned around, her beautiful eyes dim, as if a ray of light was blooming. A spy who was distracted not far away immediately came to his senses and instinctively took out a flare and fired it.
The whistling arrows exploded in the air, and blood splattered on the necks of the two spies.
“Exposed!”
The two warriors looked at the fallen spy with gloomy expressions.
They moved very quickly, but unexpectedly they were still discovered by the spies.
But they still had a trace of doubt in their hearts. Logically, the two spies should not have discovered them, but now they had no time to think about it.
"Save the county lord's daughter as quickly as possible!"
The two men rushed towards the bandits' lair with swords in hand.
The woman in white looked at their backs and did not take any action.
She didn't want to cause any trouble.
The reason for controlling the spies to fire the flares was just to remind Tiexiong and Lu Xiao.
Whether they can escape depends on their luck.
Even if I can't escape, it doesn't matter.
Not to mention that Tiexiong and Lu Xiao don't know her identity and true appearance, what's more, she has a backup plan.
