Tang Fei could feel his rapid heartbeat at this moment: "Am I really going to die here?"
"Whoosh!"
The ear-piercing sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded in the ears, and countless huge arrows as thick as small trees were shot out from the surrounding woods. The rain of arrows all bombarded the giant wolves that had just jumped, although they did not penetrate their bodies.
, but also knocked those giant wolves away.
Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly became excited.
"Dragnet! It's my father and the others!" Sha Wanli shouted excitedly.
As soon as the giant wolves stood up, there was another round of dense arrow rain. These arrows were all made from the trunks of mature trees. It required a very powerful giant crossbow to launch them. This is
The bandits’ secret weapon—a dragnet!
Of course, a heavy crossbow cannot be called a dragnet, but when there are hundreds of giant crossbows placed there, the bows and arrows shot at the same time can definitely be called a dragnet.
The giant wolves roared unwillingly, but just halfway through the roar, the next wave of heavy crossbows hit them hard.
Although the skin of the giant wolves is extremely hard, they were hit by such heavy crossbows one after another. Although there was nothing serious on the surface, internal injuries were already caused inside the body.
"Aww..." A sad wolf howl came from the distance, and then the giant wolves rolled to their feet and ran into the darkness with their tails between their legs.
After repelling the giant wolf, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, they thought they were all going to die today.
Their eyes focused on the place where the crossbow arrows had just been shot, and they knew that they should have found their large army.
Sure enough, several strong men walked out of the darkness. Seeing Sha Wanli and the others, their faces showed joy. The leader strode over, touched Sha Wanli's little head and said with a smile: "Little
Wan, it's great that you're okay, your father and uncles are worried about you..."
"Uncle Murong, you guys..." Seeing these familiar faces, Sha Wanli choked up for a moment.
The person who saved Tang Fei and the others was Murong Xing, a very senior figure in the village. Seeing that the young village leader was safe and sound, he felt happy. He glanced at this group of people, and most of them looked familiar.
But when he saw Tang Shaokun, his pupils shrank slightly without any trace.
Although the aura of this man was deliberately concealed, you can still see from his behavior and expression that he has a temperament that is different from ordinary people. There are only a few people in the village who can have this kind of transcendent temperament, but now they are here to see
When he saw a strange and powerful man, his eyes suddenly became wary.
"Who is this?" Murong Xing asked slightly warily.
Sha Wanli looked at Tang Shaokun and said with a smile: "Uncle Murong, that is Tang Fei's uncle Tang Shaokun."
Tang Fei's uncle, Murong Xing, chuckled, cupped his hands to Tang Shaokun and said, "Thank you, my friend, for escorting me along the way..."
Tang Shaokun smiled and nodded. He had been practicing hard and was not very good at interpersonal communication. In such situations, he was also used to keeping silent.
Although he greeted him warmly on the surface, Tang Fei could still see a vigilant look in Murong Xing's eyes. After all, the village had just suffered such a terrible impact, so it was normal for some outsiders to be suspicious.
"Uncle Murong, are my dad and the others okay?" Sha Wanli asked.
"Well, the village leader and the others are hiding in a safe place now..." After glancing at Tang Shaokun, Murong Xing fell silent.
Sha Wanli understood that Murong Xing was suspicious of Tang Shaokun, so he could only smile and said: "Uncle Murong, don't worry, before this, Uncle Tang has been with Fei Ge, Xiao Mo and the others, and he is not a bad person."
Hearing what Sha Wanli said, Murong Xing's alertness eased slightly and he said, "Well, then you can follow me. This is not the place to talk. We will talk in detail later when we get to the camp."
The mood of the team suddenly rose. Being able to encounter the stronghold of the village leader in such deep mountains gave them a backbone of their own.
Under the night, Tang Fei and the others were walking at the front, chatting about one thing or another.
"Uncle Murong, how did you find our location?" Tang Fei asked curiously.
"The bonfire, you lit the bonfire and the smoke rising from it was seen by us. I originally thought it was those bastards who massacred the village, so I took the dragnet to seek revenge on them. Unexpectedly, I met you instead." Murong Xing said calmly.
said.
Behind him were an elite team of more than a hundred people, all of whom were carrying heavy mechanisms. The original heavy crossbows were assembled from these mechanisms in a short time and were easier to carry.
After walking for who knows how long, everyone finally saw the trace of fire in front of them.
"We're here, our base camp is ahead..." After Murong Xing finished speaking, he glanced at Tang Shaokun with some worry. However, the latter didn't have any unnecessary expression on his face at the moment, so he couldn't see anything.
As soon as he approached the fire, Tang Fei could sense that there were many masters hidden in the surrounding darkness. A figure suddenly appeared in front of them. After respectfully saluting Murong, he said: "Elder Murong is back."
Murong Xing nodded and said happily: "Hurry and report to the leader of the village that I have brought Xiao Wan back!"
"Young Village Leader?!" The man was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Sha Wanli's figure. He responded excitedly and ran back to report.
Murong Xing led everyone into the camp, which was an open grassland with some tree stumps still everywhere.
Tang Fei casually scanned the camp and found that there were still many people patrolling: "It seems that a lot of the elites in the elite group have been retained. If the interference of the unknown enemy is eliminated, it should be very easy for the bandits to rise..."
Unlike Tang Fei and others, Sha Tongtian and others were relatively well prepared when they came out. More than a hundred tents were erected at this moment.
As everyone followed Murong Xing towards the depths of the tent area, a burst of excited laughter came, and Sha Tongtian's strong figure suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
After seeing Xiao Wan, he immediately picked him up and spun him around excitedly, making Desha Wanli's face turn red: "Dad, I'm not a child anymore!"
Sha Tongtian laughed loudly and said: "You brat, I am happy today!"
After putting Sha Wanli down, he also noticed Tang Shaokun in the team. He raised his thick eyebrows and couldn't help but ask: "Who is this brother?"
Tang Shaokun smiled and clasped his fists, saying: "I'm Tang Shaokun."
"Tang Shaokun?" Sha Tongtian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Are you Tang Shaokun of the Tang family?!"
As soon as these words came out, Murong Xing was stunned for a moment. No wonder the name felt familiar just now. It turned out that the unassuming middle-aged man in front of him was actually known as the second generation strongest master in Huaiyang County.
