Chapter 36: Desperate attack

Hearing Batulu's words, Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu were shocked and looked at each other.

"What are you looking at?" Batulu looked innocent. "You didn't ask me whether it was a wooden bridge or a stone bridge."

"Do you still need to ask?" Chen Liqiu was worried and worried, "Nowadays, most of the bridges are wooden bridges. We have traveled all over the country, how many bridges are stone bridges?"

"There is no point in arguing about this," Li Zhongyong turned to look back. "They will catch up soon. Since we can't burn the bridge, we can only stop them from the bridge head."

Chen Liqiu nodded heavily, "Okay, the two of us will stay."

"I'll stay too." Takeda Mayumi said loudly.

"You can't stay," Chen Liqiu shook his head and said, "We have only traveled less than a thousand miles now, and there are still more than three thousand miles left. You and the boss have to deal with other chasing troops."

"There are three of them, and their martial arts skills are higher than yours. Even if I stay, I may not be able to stop them." Takeda Mayumi shook his head and said.

After Takeda Mayumi spoke, Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu did not answer immediately. Takeda Mayumi's words were indeed reasonable. One-on-one might not be able to stop the opponent, and two-on-three was hopeless.

"My martial arts skills are the best. Me and the second and third sons will stay," Batulu said to Takeda Mayumi, "Fourth brother, you will take the fifth brother and leave first in a while."

"It won't work, I don't know the road." Takeda Mayumi shook her head anxiously.

Zi interjected from the side and said, "I won't leave either. Let's not leave. We'll fight them."

"Have you forgotten Master's instructions?" Li Zhongyong looked serious, "What's more, you don't know martial arts, what's the use of staying here?"

"The second brother is right," Chen Liqiu said, "the fifth brother, I won't tell lies to ease your heart. No matter who stays, it will be in danger, but the person who leaves first will not be safe. Without us

If you are accompanied by an escort, your situation will be even more dangerous."

Everyone was chatting eagerly while galloping on their horses. After crossing the ridge, everyone saw the stone bridge. The stone bridge stretched across the mountainside of the two peaks. The bridge was two miles long and about two feet wide. Under the bridge was rolling eastward.

The river is surging, and the stone bridge is at least ten feet above the river.

"Fourth, we'll take action later. Attack the opponent's mount first," Li Zhongyong said to Mayumi Takeda. "Destroy their mounts. Even if we can't stop them, they won't be able to catch up with Boss and Fifth."

"Okay." Takeda Mayumi nodded.

Li Zhongyong added, "We can't keep our mounts to prevent them from taking them for their own use."

Chen Liqiu and Takeda Mayumi both nodded.

"The horse still has to be left to you," Batulu said, "in case something happens

If you win, you can also catch up with us on horseback."

"Haha," Chen Liqiu asked with a smile, "Boss, do you think it's possible?"

Batulu knew that the three of them were no match for the enemy, so he was concerned and worried, "I'll stay too, and let Lao Wu go on his own."

"No," Chen Liqiu shook his head repeatedly, "If he encounters pursuers again, how do you want him to deal with them?"

Batulu was in a dilemma and couldn't take both things into consideration. He was so angry that he cursed his mother repeatedly.

Shiqiao is getting closer and closer to everyone, and the pursuers behind him are getting closer and closer to everyone. He knows that the separation is imminent, and he also knows what kind of danger the three people left behind will face, but he does not know martial arts, even if he is anxious, he will do it

Nothing.

Li Zhongyong took off the money bag from his waist, raised his hand and threw it to him, "Go on."

After catching the money bag, Li Zhongyong said eagerly, "I thought I could send you to Ganzhou, but now it seems that you won't be able to get out even a thousand miles. If you encounter the pursuers again, I will have to leave you behind."

You, to divert the pursuers away from you, you can only walk on your own in the future."

Without waiting for a reply, Li Zhongyong said to Batulu, "Boss, you have to continue going south. It's not a last resort. Don't leave Lao Wu behind. He has never traveled far and it is too dangerous to go alone."

Batulu heard what Li Zhongyong said, but he didn't answer, he just kept scolding his mother.

"When it comes time to separate, just put it down and drive south," Li Zhongyong said, looking in the direction, "Lao Wu, don't go south, go west."

Without waiting for a reply, Batulu spoke first, "Why did you ask him to go west? It's not right to go west."

"It's too dangerous to take the land route, and we can't avoid the pursuing troops," Li Zhongyong explained. "We can only go west, and rush to Yuzhou first..."

Li Zhongyong was interrupted by Batulu before he could finish his words, "Why are you going to Yuzhou? Yuzhou is thousands of miles away. It would take more than half a month to go around in such a big circle."

"It's the low water season now, and there are boats going downstream on the river," Li Zhongyong said, "Lao Wu, you rush to Yuzhou and try to board the boat, and go down the river, passing through Ezhou, Xiangzhou, Poyang, and Ganjiang

, until Ganzhou, the place you want to go is in Ganzhou, take the waterway from Yuzhou to Ganzhou, it will take at most half a month."

Worried that he might not remember it, he said eagerly, "Second Senior Brother, please tell me the path again."

Li Zhongyong repeated it again,

He also warned, "It's very dangerous to go here. You have to be more careful. In addition, you must remember that you can throw away anything, but you can't throw away the Golden Pill of Return to Heaven. Master is no longer here. His last wish must be given to us."

I have to help him finish it."

"Second Senior Brother, don't worry, unless I die, I will definitely send the things over." He said solemnly.

While everyone was talking, the carriage had already arrived at the bridge. Takeda Mayumi took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve and threw it to him, "Fifth Junior Brother, take care."

The separation was imminent, and I was worried and reluctant to say goodbye, "Sister."

The pursuers followed closely, and there was not much time for everyone to say goodbye. After the carriage drove onto the stone bridge, Li Zhongyong, Chen Liqiu, and Takeda Mayumi dismounted from their horses at the same time and stood at the bridge head.

The horses the three people were riding and the horses driving the chariot were originally in the same group. They did not slow down after breaking free and followed the carriage wildly forward.

Batulu didn't want to leave at all, but he also knew that he had to go. He didn't look back when he got to the bridge. He shook the reins urgently and shouted to urge the horse.

When he stood up and looked back, he saw that Li Zhongyong and others had already displayed their weapons and were waiting attentively. The three pursuers on good horses were less than fifty feet away from the bridge.

Seeing Chen Liqiu standing in the car and looking back, Chen Liqiu shouted loudly, "You must hand over the proceeds from the tomb to the miracle doctor with your own hands."

For a moment, I didn't understand what Chen Liqiu meant. After thinking about it, I suddenly realized that Chen Liqiu's words were actually misleading the pursuers. Sun Zhenren was the Qihuang Sage during his lifetime, and there must be medical books buried with him in his tomb. Everyone got the medical books.

It is also very reasonable to give it to the living miracle doctor. Then the pursuers will think that they may rush to Jizhou, because the miracle doctor Xue is in Jizhou.

Before the carriage left the stone bridge, the pursuers had already arrived at the bridge. Before the pursuers could rein in their horses, Li Zhongyong and the others rushed forward. Their target was not the three middle-aged masters, but the horse they were riding.

horses.

The meaning of targeting horses is very clear. If there is even the slightest chance of winning, Li Zhongyong and others will not kill the horses first without attacking the people.

The horses ridden by those three people were indeed magical. After being attacked, they almost raised their front hooves at the same time and stood upright to avoid the attack.

The three people missed a hit and immediately rushed to attack. No matter how magical the horses were, they could not move around like martial arts practitioners. In the blink of an eye, all three horses were injured. The three people on the horses raised their spirits at the same time and escaped.

horseback.

The two middle-aged men drew their swords and faced Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu, while the middle-aged woman jumped onto the stone bridge, arched her back and rushed after the carriage.

Takeda Makoto

Seeing this, Gong hurriedly turned around and waved, firing several hidden cross weapons at the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman did not dare to lift her up, so she hurriedly heard the sound to identify her position and moved to dodge.

Just after dodging those hidden weapons, Takeda Mayumi's second wave of cross concealed weapons followed. The middle-aged woman could only dodge again. Takeda Mayumi took the opportunity to step forward and entangle the middle-aged woman.

Li Zhongyong and Chen Liqiu were not as skilled as others, so they could only attack blindly without giving the two middle-aged men a chance to attack.

Although the two middle-aged men were only dodging and defending, they were quite calm and did not appear embarrassed at all.

"Leave him alive, Taiping Inn ordered us to arrest him alive," one of them said to the other.

Hearing what the other party said, the grief and anger in my heart eased slightly. As long as the other party didn't kill them, there was still a chance of survival even if the three of them were captured.

At this time, the carriage had already left the stone bridge and entered the mountains and forests on the south side. After a while, the bridge head on the north side would no longer be visible.

At this moment, something unexpected happened. Takeda Mayumi quickly rushed towards the middle-aged woman after sending out the third wave of hidden cross weapons. When the woman was dodging sideways, she hugged her waist and hugged the middle-aged woman while shouting.

The woman rushed towards the stone railing beside the bridge.

The bridge railing was no more than three feet high, so Takeda Mayumi, determined to share the fate of both sides, used all her strength to climb over the bridge railing at the same time.

At the critical moment of life and death, the middle-aged woman reacted quickly, reached out quickly with her left hand, grabbed the bluestone beside the bridge the moment before she fell, and hung Takeda Mayumi in the air.

Seeing his companion in danger, on the line of life and death, the middle-aged man who was fighting Li Zhongyong hurriedly shouted, "Li Chong, save Chen Guanying quickly."

Hearing the shouts of his companions, the middle-aged man named Li Chong hurriedly dodged to avoid Chen Liqiu's soft sword, turned around, accelerated, and strode forward.

Takeda Mayumi did not expect that the middle-aged woman would cling to the stone bridge at the critical moment. At the critical moment, he did not have time to think too much and grabbed the woman's clothes and lowered them with strength.

Takeda Mayumi's original intention was to bring the middle-aged woman down with him, but he never expected that his move would be a mistake. He killed two birds with one stone. While dragging the middle-aged woman down, he also jumped up with the force of the recoil.

Seeing Takeda Mayumi escape from death, he was overjoyed and cheered.

But before the good word could be said, something unexpected happened again. The middle-aged man who came to the rescue saw his companion falling into the water. He was so angry that he clung to the bridge railing, kicked up in the air, and kicked Takeda Mayumi straight away.
