Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 461
All the soldiers were fighting to the top, so they naturally responded one after another, so they followed Xue Lince and went after the bandits.

The night wind howled past, and when it blew on the wounds of the soldiers, they didn't feel any pain. The moon poked out from behind the clouds at some point, and the earth was rendered into a vast and pale color by it, which broadened the field of vision a lot.

Ke Ran followed closely behind Chai Jin with a dagger in her hand, and Chai Jin looked back from time to time to see if he was still following her. Shen Huai's steps were light and fast, as if walking on grass blades. The dark armor was particularly eye-catching, after the fight just now, it was not stained with any blood.

Those bandits were very cunning, after chasing them, they were led to a fork in the road. After turning around a hill, they lost their chase. An ominous premonition flashed in Xue Lince's heart, and he quickly stopped the soldiers who were about to continue chasing.

Everyone stopped at the bottom of a steep hill, looking around, there were lush vegetation all around, the night wind was gentle, and when it blew over the sharp rocks, there was a sound like howling ghosts and howling wolves, in addition to the sound of the soldiers breathing one after another.

"What's going on?" Ke Ran supported her chest that was still heaving violently, "Aren't they so panicked? How could we even chase them away?"

Chai Jin patted his shoulder, cracking the armor on his body, which was particularly obvious in the silent mountain stream.

"This is their territory," Shen Huaizhong said nonchalantly, waving his fan, "They have a hundred ways for us to chase after them. The so-called Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit, maybe they escaped from a secret path on a certain mountain."

The soldiers behind him started to make noise. Xue Lince only stood there holding the long knife that had been curled. He was originally tall and slender, but now the armor on his body made him look much bigger. When he stood there, he looked like a The standing black rock exudes a calm and calm aura.

"My lord," said a soldier beside him, "Are we going to catch up? The group of bandits just now must have been injured. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Why don't we..."

At this time, a rumbling sound suddenly interrupted his words.

Everyone was also startled, and looked up one after another, only to hear the sound coming from the top of their heads, like a thunder rolling past, but when they looked up at the sky, they saw the moon was still hanging high, and the moonlight was still moving and vivid.

When he was wondering, suddenly his feet trembled, and Ke Ran was startled, "Could it be that the earth dragon turned over?"

Xue Lince frowned, and felt that the sound was getting closer, like a thunderbolt hitting the top of his head. An ominous premonition crossed his mind. When he looked up, he saw a big stone rolling down the mountain, and the stone hit the cliff with a loud noise. , It is no different from Tianlei.

His heart twitched suddenly, and he quickly reminded loudly: "Avoid the mountains!"

All the soldiers just woke up like a dream, they avoided the cliffs one after another and hid aside.

The boulder almost whizzed past everyone's heads. Fortunately, there were plains and swamps below. After the boulder rolled down, the speed dropped sharply, and finally welded to the plain, like a meteorite falling on the ground, smashing a huge pit.

Having just experienced such a thrilling scene, before everyone could react, they heard the rumbling sound explode above their heads again.

"It's coming again! Run away!" Ke Ran yelled, "Follow me! There is a path ahead!"

Fortunately, he and Chai came here before when they were looking for the lost girl in Yuedong City, and they had a little impression of this place, so they volunteered to rush forward and led the soldiers to the mountain path.

The slope there is gentle and the space is narrow. As long as they arrive there safely, these bandits will no longer be able to attack with boulders.

Hearing the words, all the soldiers hurriedly followed Ke Ran to flee for their lives. There was a loud bang around them, and shattered stones whizzed by from time to time. The bandits above probably sensed the intentions of the crowd, so they sped up the action of throwing stones. I feel that the sky and the earth are shaking, and there are deafening sounds all around.

Fortunately, Ke Ran was flexible and good at adapting to changes, and soon lived up to everyone's expectations and brought everyone to the small road. Only then did the loud rumbling noise calm down reluctantly, and the world gradually returned to peace.

There are relatively gentle soil slopes on both sides of the path. The slopes are full of old trees with lush branches, covering the sky and the sun, covering most of the already cold and fragile moonlight, and there is no light at all.

Everyone didn't dare to light the lamps, for fear of revealing their positions, so they could only breathe and rest in the dark for a while.

The sweat on Xue Lince's body had already soaked his clothes, and the hair on his forehead was also wet, sticking tightly to his face. He stuck his long knife in the ground and simply counted the number of soldiers.

Luckily, Cai Cai reacted quickly just now. Although Stonehenge happened suddenly, there were no casualties.

In the darkness, people gasped one after another. Ke Ran leaned back against the tree, his heart beating fiercely on his chest. After confirming that the person beside him was Chai Jin, he pulled his sleeve hard, fearing that he would fly away in the next moment.

"What should we do now?" Shen Huaizhong's voice sounded in the dark ink, still as calm and calm as before, as if the surprise attack just now hadn't affected him in the slightest.

"These bandits must be waiting outside. If we go out of this mountain stream, they will definitely catch us by surprise. If we go forward, then they can continue to push down the rocks. Not to mention attacking the top of the mountain, it is safe It’s hard to tell when passing by.”

Chai Jin pinched his chin, his voice was low and a little depressed.

"But this is their territory, if we wait here, we will also wait for them to go back and call for reinforcements to make dumplings." Shen Huaizhong put away the fan with a "snap", "Anyway, it's an ambush, why don't we rush in. "

Before the words fell, there was a sudden sharp sound of breaking wind in the darkness. Everyone present quickly realized that someone had shot a cold shot, and hurriedly hid behind the tree trunk.

"They are here!" A rough voice rang out from above, "Shoot them all into hedgehogs for Lao Tzu, and avenge the Third Master!"

not good!It's the bandits who can't wait to come and seek revenge!

As soon as the words fell, the sound of "咻咻" broke through the wind again, and everyone had to find the leeward place and stick their bodies tightly to the tree trunk, not daring to show their bodies.

The bandits took advantage of the heights, and it was especially beneficial to shoot arrows at the crowd. They yelled and cursed loudly while shooting arrows, but Xue Lince and others naturally had no one to answer.

Fortunately, the slopes were full of trees, so hiding behind tree trunks was considered safe for the time being.

But Xue Lince couldn't feel at peace for a moment, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his back.

Going on like this is not an option. When the bandits have shot enough arrows, they will come down in person. This is their territory. They have a large number of people, and they are quite familiar with the terrain. It is only a matter of time before they are caught.
