Chapter 464: Three-Edged Bone Knife(1/3)
Near the official road near the pier outside Kaifeng Imperial City, under a big tree, there is a tall gray horse standing.
If you look closely, the horse is actually not gray, but gray spots are covered with white hair, and the mane is gray. When you look from a distance, it looks like a gray horse.
Judging from the saddle stirrup, the horse was very particular. There were two bows hanging on the saddle, one big and one small.
It was the hottest time in the afternoon. The sun was fierce, and the dirt road on the entire official road turned white. There was a shady area nearby.
There was a large bucket of water, a large bucket of forage and a small basket of apples in front of the horse. The horse was full and was shaking its tail gently to rest, looking quite comfortable.
At this moment, four people walked over from the pier at the other end of the official road.
These people wore the uniform number clothes of the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty, but depending on the color of the clothes, they should be navy soldiers. Because of the lack of training in daily life and the quality of recruitment, these officers and soldiers have their own characteristics, and their only common point is that they don’t look combat-ready, and they don’t stand or go in the same direction.
The four of them walked while wiping their sweat, fanning their sleeves, and complaining about the ghost weather.
When they passed by the tree, all four of them saw the gray horse.
The tall one walked in the front and pointed at the three people behind him. That's what it means - look!
The three of them took a look at their luggage on the saddle together.
The tall raised his eyebrows to the shortest of the four, and the small one nodded.
So the other three people let the news, and the little man ran to the gray horse and reached out to touch his luggage.
As soon as his hand touched his luggage, the gray horse suddenly turned around and his butt was facing him.
The little man was wondering when he heard a "pop" sound... The gray horse farts at his face.
"Puff..." The little man was short, with his face facing the horse's butt. This fart smelled strong, and he didn't miss it at all, and his face turned green.
The short man flew out and rolled on the ground with a stinking smell.
The other three were speechless, and the fattest and the largest of the four walked over and kicked the short man, "You're a stolen guy."
After saying that, he strode over and wanted to reach out and grab the luggage on the horse's back, but he saw the gray horse suddenly turn back.
The fat man and the gray horse were face to face, and were slightly stunned. He heard the sound of "guru" in the horse's neck. When he was confused, he saw the horse suddenly raised his face and said, "Cough... puff."
When the fat man understood, he couldn't see it!
The horse spit out a mouthful of saliva or phlegm at his face, and the sticky face was covered with a handful of smear and smeared it, and there was a bitten apple.
The gray horse blinked and looked at the fat man who was so disgusting that he was rolling all over the ground.
The remaining two soldiers looked at each other.
The tall man and another slightly hunched thin man acted on both sides, one after another, surrounding the gray horse.
The gray horse retreated two more steps back, and still stood under the tree like before.
The tall man rushed to the front, and the gray horse suddenly screamed, raised his front hooves and stood up, shouting at the tall man's face.
The tall man was kicked by two horses, sitting on the ground with his butt, covering his face, almost kicking the bridge of his nose, and bleeding from his fingers.
The thin man happened to be behind the horse. The gray horse hit the ground with the front hooves, and then kicked it back with one kick. This kick... How far did the thin man fly out?
The gray horse shook his mane and stood under the tree and tilted his head to look at the four people.
"Your grandpa."
The four soldiers got up and stopped working. They thought they could still make you a horse stump?
All four of them drew their knives.
The gray horse looked at the knife in the hands of the four people, turned around and trotted behind the tree, whispering "sparse" in his mouth, and it sounded like a mess of thoughts, and I don't know what he wanted to express.
"Are you afraid?" The tall man in the leader wiped his nose with a thrust, and was so angry that he grabbed the knife and rushed over.
But as soon as he ran to the tree, he tripped by something, and he staggered out, and his forehead hit the trunk of a tree, which made the boss have a bag. He covered his forehead and turned around and saw that he had tripped by a foot just now.
The other three also walked to the tree and saw that there was a person lying behind the tree. The man was dozing off with his arms and wearing blue clothes. Judging from his body shape, he was a well-proportioned and tall man with his face that could not be seen, and he was covered with a big hat.
The gray horse stood beside him, looking at the expressions of the four people, and was a little provocative.
The four of them were a little hesitant. This place was not far from the wharf. The pier was almost all from the Zhao family army, and Zhao Pu was there. The reason for the incident was that they wanted to steal things. If Zhao Pu knew about it... the three of them felt their hair standing up when they thought about it.
The three people who came in later wanted to calm down and retreat, but the tall man who had just fallen and was kicked by a horse in the face was hit by a fire. He walked over and raised his foot to kick the man in blue, who had just tripped his leg.
But just as he was about to kick the other party, the man in blue suddenly arched his legs lazily, changed his position and continued to sleep.
The tall man used too much force and couldn't hold it in one go. He put his foot on the trunk. He screamed in pain and jumped around with his legs in his arms.
The other three looked at each other, is it such a coincidence?
At this time, the man in blue stretched his waist and stretched out his hand and squeezed his hat and lifted it a little.
Everyone saw that after the hat was lifted, they first had two eye-catching mustaches, and half a lotus tattoo was on their hands holding the hat.
The gray horse kicked the ground with its hooves and sniffed. Looking at the expressions of the four people opposite, I wonder if it was an illusion, but I felt a little gloating.
At this moment, the tall man calmed down, and the four of them saw the man who was lying on the dozing side, put his hat aside, leaned one hand on his knees, and looked at the four of them, who looked like a man who looked very handsome.
Looking again, it turned out to be a man in his thirties, with sharp eyebrows and strong eyes, and his two beards were particularly eye-catching.
The four of them subconsciously swallowed their saliva. This person seemed not very good to offend. Looking at the crossbow hanging immediately, he might be a martial arts man who knows how to do Kung Fu.
After sitting up, Xiaowang yawned, stretched out her hand, waved to the four people, and asked, "Do you want to gamble?"
The four of them were stunned and looked at each other - gambling?
The beard stretched out his hand, and the gray horse walked forward two steps and reached his side. The beard didn't even look up, and took a wine gourd from the saddle, opened it and took a sip, and took two gold ingots from the sleeve. He raised his eyebrows and smiled so badly, "Betting on the big or small."
As the saying goes, the four of them are jealous of money, and they can no longer take steps when they see the ingot.
"We don't have that many gambling bills..." the tall man said.
"It's okay." The beard smiled, "If you win, take the gold, I'll ask for something if I lose."
The four of them discussed for a moment, and finally the tall man nodded, "Okay!"
Xiaomoustache took a jar and asked them if they were colored.
The tall man took out a pair of lust and threw it at him, his beard shook his hand... I don't know why lust went into the sieve cup, and his hand swayed loudly.
The four of them held their breath and listened to the clamor. Finally, they saw the beard pushing the scent to the ground and raised their eyebrows to look at the four of them.
The four of them also communicated and bet together, "Big!"
Xiaomoustache smiled and raised her hand to lift the sieve cup... The moment he lifted the sieve cup, the three sieves that were originally big "four, five, and six" rolled along and turned into "one, two, and three".
The mustache smiled at the four people.
The four of them were discouraged, but it didn't matter if they didn't lose money, so the tall man asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"Are you the navy of the Song Dynasty?" Xiaowang touched Hu Zi and asked.
The four of them were slightly stunned and a little confused, "The Navy of the Song Dynasty"? Could it be that this old man is a foreigner?
The four nodded.
A different smile appeared on the mustache, which seemed a bit dangerous, "Is Zhao Pu in the military camp?"
The four of them were stunned and did not answer. They looked at each other and swallowed to look at him.
The fat man asked, "What are you doing... asking about this?"
"He is in the military camp alone? I heard that the defense of the navy is not very tight and there are not many people." The bearded man narrowed his eyes slightly, "How many people are there?"
"What do you want to do?" The tall man was shocked. Could it be that this man wanted to assassinate?
At this time, the short man standing outside the forest suddenly saw the smoke and dust rolling on the official road in the distance, and it seemed that a large number of people were galloping towards him.
Four frowned.
"Three camps and two docks in the navy." Xiaomao picked up two gold ingots and shook them at the four people, "Tell me where Zhao Pu is, these are yours."
The four of them turned pale, and the tall man shook his head, "What do you want to do? We won't say it."
Xiaomoustache raised her eyebrows and pulled out a short knife about two feet long from behind. She looked up at the four people with a scary expression, "If you don't say anything... you can't go back and report it."
The tall man suddenly kicked the short man out, "Go and notify the marshal!"
After saying that, the remaining three men drew their swords to surround the beard. The short man rolled and crawled out of the woods, rushing towards the direction of the dock while firing arrows.
The bearded eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand to pick the short bow on the gray horse's back, and pulled an arrow. None of the three of them could see clearly what was going on... and then he saw that the contact was still in heaven and was shot down with a sound arrow.
The short man looked back.
The remaining three men drew their swords and rushed towards the beard, but they were kicked out of the woods before they could get close.
The mustache walked out, stepped on the tall man's head with one foot, and unsheathed the knife.
The tall man lay on the ground and shouted, asking the other three to go back and report the news quickly.
The three of them ran forward and looked back as they ran.
The short-mouthed sword with his beard pressed against the tall neck and said to the three escaped soldiers, "Don't care about brothers?"
The three of them were obviously hesitant.
The tall man was covered in blood and shouted, "What are you looking at! Let's go!"
"Zhao Pu is not your father, so what?"
