277、Airborne
The elderly often say that it is always good to bring a rope when going out.
Xu Xiaole had heard this old saying, but did not take it seriously, so he could only be trapped on the stone platform. The bandits obviously understood the meaning of old wisdom, and they brought ropes long enough.
Xu Xiaole raised his head and watched the bandits wearing swords on his waist slowly descending. Although the descent speed was not fast, it didn't take much time to fall on the stone platform.
Judging from the height, weight, equipment, combat experience, etc., Xu Xiaole could only lose completely.
However, from the perspective of mind, Xu Xiaole has a great chance of winning.
These bandits didn't have any brains when they went out today. Or they knew that their opponent was a teenager, and relying on the advantage of 5 to 1, they did not take Xu Xiaole seriously at all. This expansion even made them feel that Xu Xiaole was a weak doctor who could run and jump, and could kill him with just one stretch.
In addition to being good at escaping, Xu Xiaole did not have outstanding performance. No wonder they made such a judgment.
The sword bandit who fell down on the rope could clearly see Xu Xiaole's face. He smiled at Xu Xiaole grimly, as if saying: I'll let you taste the taste of being incomplete. However, what surprised him was that Xu Xiaole actually smiled brightly for him.
At this moment, the whole sky became brighter.
Xu Xiaole suddenly jumped, and used his hands and feet to grab the feather arrow in the bush.
The arrow cluster is a triangular pyramid made of fine iron. It is very bright. I don’t know how many lives it has taken away, and it exudes a murderous aura.
Xu Xiaole raised the arrow with a smile and said, "Come down quickly."
The sword bandit calculated the distance, considered the distance Xu Xiaole had just rushed up, and said to himself: If I go down a few more feet, I am afraid that the guy will use this arrow to stab his ass without hesitation!
This is still the case of Xu Xiaole being kind. If Xu Xiaole hated them to the core, the arrow cluster would pierce into extremely tender parts, and once injured, it would cause serious psychological shadows.
If this area is injured, it will cause pain every day.
A layer of cold sweat oozed from the forehead of the sword bandit. As soon as he lowered his head, he saw Xu Xiaole showing a paradoxical smile, and the sweat dripped down.
Xu Xiaole laughed and said, "Come down, come down quickly."
The sword bandit looked up and saw that the archer was still behind the stone wall. He could not see his own situation and was slowly laying the rope at the rhythm just now.
He thought for a while: Only by jumping from the height where Xu Xiaole could stab him can he avoid the threat of arrow clusters. However, this monkey crawling and jumping is far beyond ordinary people. Even if he descends to the point where he jumps down from the bush, his body may not be able to bear it.
Thinking that he was not stabbed to death by Xu Xiaole, but fell to death, the sword bandit was very frustrated.
"You have a habit!" After thinking about it, the sword bandit decided to climb up and go back. However, the archer did not know what was going on below and was still putting the rope.
Xu Xiaole jumped up without hesitation, holding an arrow in his hand, and stabbed the sword bandit. Unfortunately, he overestimated himself, because he was inconvenient to jump and climb with the arrow, so he was still a small part away.
"Ah!" The knife bandit screamed in fear and tightly wrapped around the rope.
After Xu Xiaole landed, she smiled at him: "Sorry, I'm anxious."
The sword bandit trembled in his heart and shouted, "What are you going to do? Don't do it randomly!"
Xu Xiaole's face was stunned: "How can you have the attitude to say this? What did I do? You want to beat and kill. What did the Gu family do? You killed him without saying a word? The murderer Huan killed him. I am avenging my companions and saving myself. How can I call you a mess?"
The sword bandit sweated and said, "What you said makes sense, let's talk about it in detail later." As he said, he was about to climb up.
Xu Xiaole smiled and said, "Don't move, if you move or scream, I will have to spend some effort to catch up and stab you."
The sword bandit stopped indeed and lowered his head and said, "We are also using people's money to eliminate disasters."
Xu Xiaole said: "Yes, you want to eliminate my disaster. But my surname is not Dongguo, nor is it a farmer, so it is probably not enough to ask me to repay my grievances with kindness."
The sword bandit looked confused: "Dongguo, farmer?"
Xu Xiaole couldn't help but feel disappointed: "You said you didn't even read books, but you didn't know the story of Mr. Dongguo saving the wolf and the farmer saving the snake. Well, I think you have a short life and may not be able to go to school. Today I will show you mercy."
The sword bandit is neither above nor below. Even though he knows that Xu Xiaole is delaying time and talking nonsense, he can do nothing.
The bandits up and down the mountain could not hear the conversation between the two, and they didn't know that Xu Xiaole was holding a sharp weapon, and they were a little dissatisfied with the sword bandit: What a simple thing, just jump down and cut the thief's head? Why haven't it done yet!
The bandit leader shouted: "Hey! Why are you talking about him?"
The sword bandit hanging on the rope was full of confusion: He wanted to talk to me! He took advantage of Xu Xiaole's opportunity to tell stories and climbed up secretly...
Sure enough, Xu Xiaole jumped up and raised his hand to throw out a stone. The stone had half a palm, and it was very painful to hit the body. After landing, Xu Xiaole shouted: "If you climb again, I will be throwing an arrow!"
The sword bandit quickly said, "No, no, no, my hand hurts, move your seat."
Xu Xiaole laughed and said, "Okay, then I'll continue to tell you."
The sword bandit was about to cry, but he didn't believe that the wolf would reason with people... The ropes made his hands look like fire. If he continued to waste like this, he would fall without Xu Xiaole stabbing him with an arrow.
Xu Xiaole smiled and told the story of Mr. Dongguo and the wolf, and then began to tell the farmer and the snake. Compared with the previous "The Legend of the Wolf in Zhongshan", the story of the farmer and the snake is much simpler and clearer. When the sword bandit heard this story, they knew that Xu Xiaole was determined to take his life.
The sword bandit made up his mind and said to himself: Instead of being exhausted by him like this, it is better to fight to the death! From here, the stone platform is only two meters high, about one and a half meters high. My hands and feet slid down against the mountain wall, which is probably okay. He slowly loosened the rope, looked for a place to land, and fought with his back.
Xu Xiaole is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. He seems to be telling stories and delaying time. He keeps staring in his heart and never relaxed. Seeing that the sword bandit is about to survive in desperate situations, he naturally cannot let him succeed.
He had just climbed and had already seen several places where the sword bandit could reach. At this moment, based on the shape of the sword bandit, he immediately predicted his position, stepped on the stone wall, and stabbed it with an arrow.
The sword bandit saw Xu Xiaole coming in a fierce manner, and the arrow cluster shone again, and his body stiffened in the air. Not only did he not step on the landing point, the rope in his hand was also loosened. If it weren't for the rope tied to his waist, he would have fallen.
Xu Xiaole didn't expect him to fail, but failed to stab him and landed on the stone platform again. He stood up and smiled and said, "Come on, let me dance another one."
*
The mainstream saying of "The Legend of the Wolf in Zhongshan" was Ma Zhongxi, who was only four years old in the first year of Jingtai, but there is also a saying that it was written by the Tang Dynasty; the story of the farmer and the snake comes from "Aesop's Fable", and there are still 175 years before Jinnige brought it to the Ming Dynasty. The novel story cannot be studied in depth. (To be continued.)
