Martial Arts and Longevity: Starting from the Spiritual Beast Picture

Chapter 104

Zhao Lin planned to go deep into Huzi's camp this time, so he didn't take Liang Song into the mountain with him, otherwise it would be difficult to take care of him.

I used to be able to run with Liang Song, but it was beyond my ability to fly.

He moved carefully along the top of the rock, and there was no one in the valley, only the occasional sound of a horse snorting not far away.

According to the confession of the two minions caught last time, there is a stable in the valley with dozens of horses.

The mountain roads are difficult, and if you keep your horses on the top of the mountain, it will be inconvenient for you to get in and out, so you keep them in the nearby valleys.

After observing for a while, he made sure that there was no one nearby, so he jumped off the top of the rock, releasing his strength downwards and backwards respectively, pushing his body to fly forward slowly.

There is a gravel road in the middle of the valley leading to the mountain road, and many irregularly shaped pebbles are embedded on the ground.

There are traps in this area, and only bandits know how to get through.

Although Zhao Lin also asked about the location of the trap from Hu Ziluo, but it has been a few months, and there must have been some changes, so he simply flew over it.

Flying over the valley, there is a winding mountain road ahead.

There are towering peaks on one side, and bottomless ravines on the other. The road only allows two or three people to pass side by side.

Zhao Lin slowly landed on the ground, glanced up the mountain, and thought: "It's a good plan for the bandits to put their lair in this ghostly place!"

There are some inconspicuous small pits on the ground. These small pits are places where animal traps are buried. Before dark, the bandits will send people down to do this, and they will not be removed until dawn.

Although Zhao Lin felt that it was impossible to dig traps on such a narrow road, he still carefully opened two acupuncture points and sprayed energy downwards to reduce the weight under his feet.

If you accidentally fall into the trap, you won't fall right away.

It was about mid-afternoon, and the setting sun shone on him, casting a long shadow on the ground.

Halfway through the journey, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes from the direction of the valley mouth behind him, followed by a few noises.

"Someone is back!"

Zhao Lin looked back in surprise, his sight was blocked by the mountain and he couldn't see anything.

Although he didn't know who it was, he guessed it was definitely not an ordinary beard.

Since the bandits were attacked several times by him and Liang Song, they were accompanied by strong hands when they came out of the mountain, and they did not give them a chance to attack.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lin couldn't help speeding up his pace.

Although they are far away, they may appear in the other party's field of vision as they go around the winding mountain road.

After a cup of tea, just as he was about to reach the top of the mountain, footsteps came from ahead.

"Is there someone in front?"

Zhao Lin stopped immediately, his eyes flashed.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, it was two people who came down from the mountain, and they seemed to be holding something in their hands, making a "creaking" sound.

"Damn, people are not full, and they have to feed the animals."

"Oh, it's no wonder others, who made us feel unlucky."

"Do you think Huang Laogui is cheating, how can he win..."

It turned out to be two bandits who went down the mountain to feed their horses.

Zhao Lin glanced at the bottom of the dark cliff, thinking that although he would not die if he jumped down, it would be difficult for him to come up again.

He quickly made a decision and continued to walk up the mountain.

The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer. Seeing that they were about to bump into each other head-on after turning around a mountain depression, Zhao Lin jumped up, sprayed his energy downward, and rushed straight into the air, his body clinging tightly to the cliff.

After a while, two bandits appeared under their feet.

Each of them carried a pole with large wooden barrels hanging on both ends of the poles, and the barrels were filled with forage mixed with beans and wheat bran. They walked down the mountain one after the other.

Zhao Lin held his breath and watched the two silently.

The two bandits didn't expect that there would be someone on top of their heads, and they walked on their own.

Not far away, the bandit walking behind suddenly put down his shoulder pole, rubbed his shoulders and said, "Big Ya, take a rest when you're tired."

The bandit named Big Ya in front threw down his shoulder pole, turned his head and said with a sneer, "Did you grow up eating chaff? You only walked a few steps and you can't do it..."

He was taunting his companion, and inadvertently looked up, his eyes met Zhao Lin who was in mid-air, and his mouth opened wide instantly.

Without hesitation, Zhao Lin put his toes on the cliff, opened all the acupoints on his back, and under the acceleration of his strength, he swooped down quickly.

Like a goshawk pouncing on its prey, it punched that bandit named Da Ya in the face.

Da Ya didn't even hum, and fell directly off the cliff.

At the same time Zhao Lin was punching, he pulled out the iron ruler around his waist with the other hand, and hit the bandit behind him on the head.

"what……"

The bandit just opened his mouth and was about to shout, but before the voice escaped from his throat, he passed out.

Zhao Lin walked over and kicked the person, the pole, and the barrel off the cliff together.

After a long time, a few muffled sounds came from below.

After listening for a while, he made sure that he did not attract the attention of others, and then walked to the top of the mountain again.

Not long after, a camp made of stones appeared in front of them.

The camp is located on a huge rock, and only two walls were built according to the situation of the mountain. The top of the wall more than ten feet high is covered with thorns and thorns.

At the main entrance of the camp, there is a watchtower made of wooden frames, and a bandit who looks young is sitting on it.

With a gourd of wine in his hand, he would take a sip from time to time and never look down the mountain for a long time.

Zhao Lin went around to the side of the mountain, under the cover of weeds, touched the corner below the camp, and hid in the bushes without moving.

After a while, a group of bandits came meandering.

There were more than [-] bandits in total, some were carrying rice bags, some were carrying chickens and ducks, and several people were carrying a pig together.

It looks like he just came back from grabbing food from the mountain.

The leader was a burly man with two big iron axes in his waist and a man on his shoulders.

"Yin Hu!"

Zhao Lin's heart moved, and the name of this person came to mind.

In front of the city gate of Qinghe County, there are portraits of bandits offering rewards. Zhao Lin once showed the portraits to the captives for identification.

The other bandit leaders were only three points alike, or even completely different. Only this person looked exactly like the portrait, so he recognized it at a glance.

Yin Hu was the third child among the bandits, and he was quite an important figure.

"Third Master, are you back?" the bandit on guard laughed.

"Your grandma's, you know it's the third master Ni, why don't you hurry up and open the door."

Yin Hu cursed coldly, and strode towards the gate of the village.

The person on his shoulder twisted twice, Yin Hu patted the person's buttocks with a smile, "Don't make trouble, I will make you feel comfortable when you go back."

Only then did Zhao Lin see clearly that he was carrying a woman on his shoulders.

"Let's go!"

The bandits on guard quickly jumped down from the watchtower, opened the gate of the village, welcomed the group of people in, and quickly closed the gate again.

The sun slanted westward, and smoke rose from the camp.

Zhao Lin took out a few pancakes from his bosom, untied the water bag on his waist, ate the pancakes with water, then grabbed two handfuls of soil from the ground, wiped off the oily spots on his hands, sat on the ground and waited quietly. .

Time passed bit by bit, and the camp gradually became quiet.

When the afterglow of the setting sun was about to end, with a "squeak", the gate of the village opened.

Seven or eight bandits filed out from the inside, talking and laughing, holding animal clips and stabs that were threaded together, and it looked like they were going to set a trap.

"I can't wait any longer. After dark, there may be these unpredictable things in the camp."

Zhao Lin stood up silently, listened for a while, then let out a light jerk, bursting out of strength, slowly rose to a height of several feet, glanced down, and immediately had a clear view of the situation in the camp.

The entrance to the camp is a wide courtyard, which leads to a large hall, and the three characters "Juyi Hall" are written on the plaque in front of the hall.

Behind the Juyi hall is a pile of miscellaneous buildings, and further inside is row upon row of houses.

The manpower and material resources on the mountain are limited, and the accommodation conditions of the bandits are quite poor, even worse than that of the villagers outside the mountain.

Zhao Lin had seen the map of the camp drawn by the captives, and knew that the places where the bandits lived were roughly divided into three floors.

The outermost layer is where the low-level minions live. It is a bit like a Hakka enclosure, or a reduced Kowloon Walled City. 200 people live in a circular three-story building.

The low-rise row houses in the middle are occupied by small bosses, most of whom are in the skin training or bone training period.

The innermost layer is the residence of the core members of Huzi, such as the diamond mountain leopard, the second and third masters, and the four beams and eight pillars.

In short, the higher the status, the stronger the strength, the further you live, the bigger the house.

So far, Zhao Lin has killed a total of thirty or forty beards, except for Shuntian Liang Diaoliu and the cruel pillar Zhao Feilong, they are all young men.

For bandits, it's not even a muscle injury, so this time he wants to kill a few big ones.

He had assassinated Zhao Feilong, the ruthless pillar, just after he practiced the skin. Now that he has reached the first level of Qi and has added flying skills, he is sure to take down all the bandits except the mountain leopard whose strength is unknown.

There was a lack of recreational activities on the mountain, and the bandits had nothing to do except drink and gamble, and only three or five "motivated" bandits beat themselves up in the school grounds.

Zhao Lin sneaked all the way without attracting any attention, and easily entered the innermost layer of the camp.

This place has a name called "Heifengkou".

Heifengkou is located in a mountain depression, with cliffs on both sides. The terrain is like terraced fields, rising step by step.

Zhao Lin glanced around, looking for a target.

Somewhat strangely, there were no people in many houses, only a woman's sobbing came from one room.

"Is it Yin Hu or the Diamond Mountain Leopard?"

Zhao Lin's heart skipped a beat. He just saw Yin Hu grab a woman from the foot of the mountain. If it wasn't for filial piety, then it was for her own enjoyment, so it should be one of the two.

"Cry like a bird, cry again and throw you to your brothers, let them serve you together!"

The sound of shouting and cursing sounded, it was Yin Hu's voice.

"It's Yin Hu!"

Zhao Lin gritted his teeth, took out the iron ruler and held it in his hand, and slowly approached the house.

Yin Hu had just finished that matter, and he was unprepared, now is the time to make a move.

But after all, this person is the number three character in the beard, brave and fierce, it is impossible to solve it with three moves and two moves.

Once the stalemate was too long, other bandits were attracted, and he was blocked inside instead.

As Zhao Lin walked forward, he looked at the surrounding environment, wondering whether to rush in and kill him, or to find a way to lure him out.

At this moment, there was a voice floating from a height.
