Chapter 23 Ambush
No matter how high the kung fu is, the bricks will fall down.
This common saying is the most appropriate way to describe the fragility of a practitioner.
Because even if practitioners understand the exquisiteness of the movement of qi, they can absorb the essence of heaven and earth into the meridians, and use it to temper the functions of the body, and they also work diligently to exercise, making their physical fitness and reactions very different from ordinary people, but as long as they are not extraordinary and saints, they will still be unable to escape the state of physical body and mortal body. If they are not careful and have no precautions, they will be no different from ordinary people.
They will also be injured or even die, whether it is swords, guns, bullets, or even meals may choke to death...
In addition to the great tidal weakness of the spiritual energy of the world at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the decline of modern practitioners was not only because of the great decline of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, but more importantly, guns and cannons were introduced to the mainland, which made many practitioners sadly discover that they would even be solved by a cheap bullet for a lifetime of practice by a person who had just learned guns for three or two days.
How ridiculous is there? Only practitioners who are in the torrent of that era can experience it personally.
When he returned to the ambush scene by the river, the little carpenter felt something strange the moment he was shot. However, what he was different from ordinary practitioners was that his body not only had the Qilin True Fire repeatedly tempered, but also had undergone the magical power of the dragon vein energy to cleanse the meridians.
The existence of these powers makes his physical fitness very different from that of ordinary people, and even much stronger than most practitioners in this world.
Although he did not concentrate on his body, hardening the surface of his body and blocking this attack, his muscle reaction was completed the moment the bullet entered the body, so that the bullet did not enter too much, and the damaged blood vessels were tightening quickly, causing the surging blood to stop suddenly.
Then he reached out and locked the bullet out.
But when he finished this, he heard the sound of rapid footsteps coming from the alley. He turned his head and saw seven or eight black shadows emerging from there, and then he vaguely raised the guns.
The little carpenter did not hesitate at all. He kicked his right leg and used the ladder to climb the sky, and the person went straight to the wall.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped on the wall, gunfire immediately sounded on the commanding heights not far away.
However, at this time the little carpenter had already sobered up, and both mental and physical reactions had reached their peak.
Almost the moment the gunshot was blowing, his body was shifted by a meter, causing the bullet to whistle past him without causing any threatening damage to him.
Then the little carpenter raised his head and instantly locked the roof of a four-story building not far away.
There was a gunman holding a rifle, aiming at him.
The eyes of both sides met in the air, as if sparks were flashing, but the other party's response pulled the trigger again without hesitation.
Bang……
Bang, bang, bang...
It was not only the gunman on the commanding heights that shot. Several gunmen in the ambush circle were powerful people, and they all climbed up to the wall and poured bullets at the little carpenter, hoping to cause as much as possible to kill.
And the moment the little carpenter pulled the trigger, he also moved.
Even though he was injured and ambushed by at least ten gunmen, he had no intention of retreating.
But he rushed towards the gunman on the commanding heights.
His figure was like a ghost.
Even the bullets could not catch up with the speed of the little carpenter. Just in front of everyone, he had already reached the commanding heights.
During this period, the gunmen on the commanding heights had fired several shots in a row.
That's a master.
Every shot he almost bit the little carpenter's flesh. Even with the extreme method of climbing up the ladder, he could barely lock in someone.
But even so, he could not stop the little carpenter's offensive like a tiger and a cheetah.
However, the guy had a strong judgment. When he felt that the little carpenter was about to approach, he disappeared from the roof. At the same time, the gunfire around him became more and more intense, and countless bullets were tilting towards the little carpenter, as if he was fighting a company-level battle...
But a few seconds later, the little carpenter who broke through the wall threw the master with a gun who wanted to flee in panic to the ground.
That guy is also a tough guy. Even if he was knocked down, he did not stop resisting.
He almost subconsciously pulled out his pistol from his waist, but the little carpenter's wrist was held by his hand like an iron hoop. After he couldn't move, his left hand moved, and a sharp dagger slid from his sleeve, which stabbed towards the little carpenter's heart.
Everything is obviously the result of thousands of training sessions.
However, these methods seem to be in front of the little carpenter, so when his dagger stabbed out, he felt a soreness in his left hand. When he came to his senses, the dagger had turned direction and directly pressed against his master's Adam's apple.
Everything happened like lightning, but the final result was that the little carpenter pressed the man to the ground, then pressed the other person's neck with a dagger and controlled it.
Hearing the fierce footsteps coming from outside the house, the little carpenter asked quickly: "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"
The man fought desperately but couldn't help but show a look of despair in his eyes. Then he took the initiative and shouted angrily: "Gan Mo, just wait. Our brother Pao will never let you go!"
He shouted hysterically, but the little carpenter was very calm and asked, "Brother Pao? Brother Ghost Face Boo, or Brother Yucheng Boo?"
The man turned his eyes for a moment, and then said, "Hmph, we Cheng Longtou..."
Before he finished speaking, someone broke into the door and shot directly in their direction, regardless of whether he was hostage or not. It was a bit surprisingly fierce. The little carpenter did not hesitate and lifted the guy under him. After blocking the first round of bullets, he felt that the guy had no breath anymore, so he suddenly hit the wall and went out from the other side.
When he came outside, the little carpenter glanced at him and didn't stay here for a long time. He took a deep breath, and then suddenly raised his head and disappeared into the vast night of this block...
Half an hour later, the little carpenter returned to the place on Xiahao Old Street.
When he entered the door, he didn't see anyone. After asking, Qu Menghu and Qu Feng walked out of the darkness.
At this moment, the little carpenter had changed into a piece of clothing, and the wound on his left leg was scabbed due to his strong physical fitness. There was nothing on the surface, but he had a little high and low legs when walking.
But Qu Menghu saw it at a glance and asked, "What's wrong?"
The little carpenter found a chair to sit down, and then said lightly: "On the way back, I was ambushed. There were about ten people, and there were even fifteen or sixteen people, all of whom were guns, with rifles and pistols, and the firepower was very strong... I accidentally shot at the beginning, but then I killed a master and ran back."
Qu Menghu asked: "Where did you hurt?"
He insisted on checking the wound, but the little carpenter had to take off his pants and show him the scabbed wound, and then said, "It's okay, just have a sleep."
Qu Menghu said enviously: "The Qilin bloodline is powerful - we also heard gunshots, and it may be that something happened to you. Fortunately, you are powerful enough, so we don't need to worry too much. By the way, do you know which side of the person is?"
The little carpenter said, "It was Brother Pao. When I asked if it was Brother Pao or Brother Ghost Face, the guy glanced at the lower right corner and said, 'Cheng Longtou won't let you go'..."
Qu Menghu said, "So, it's someone from the Ghost Face Brother Association? After all, you killed their ex-Dragon Head Ghost King."
The little carpenter shook his head and said, "Not sure, the man acted too harshly, and his accent seemed a bit weird, so I can't figure out who the character is..."
Qu Menghu thought about it and said, "In this way, you can rest here and I will go out."
The little carpenter knew that he might be going to find Li Niang from the Huamen to find out the news.
The little carpenter was not sure how powerful those women were, and was not sure if they knew the people hidden behind the ambush, but it would be okay to give it a try.
As long as Qu Menghu is sure, those women will not betray them.
However, he still stopped Qu Menghu and said, "Don't you want to know what happened when I went there this time?"
Qu Menghu heard this, but laughed: "It can't be said that he returned without success, at least he didn't get much."
The little carpenter was stunned and asked, "Why do you say this?"
Qu Menghu said: "No matter whether the person who ambushed you was Yucheng Pao Brothers Club or the Ghost Face Pao Brothers Club, one thing is certain - someone in Yucheng Pao Brothers Club revealed your whereabouts. If this is the case, Chen Long must have been warned, that is, even if those people did not confirm that you lied yesterday, they would have been guarded against you, so what you heard in the past was just some unnutritious words..."
When he heard Qu Menghu's series of logical gaps, the little carpenter was speechless.
This guy's mind is really very useful. With just a few clues at present, he actually connected the causes and consequences of the matter directly, and he was very knowledgeable and had no flaws.
How did his head grow?
The little carpenter stopped talking and allowed Qu Menghu to leave, while he went to clean the wound again and then rested.
