Chapter 141
The light is unclear.

There were many bandits, many officers and soldiers, and it was noisy.

The military advisor's words distracted his attention again.

As for that arrow, the person who shot it not only had extraordinary arm strength, but also had a small amount of internal strength. The arrow tip was locked, which was a deep and terrifying death pressure.

The military advisor was stunned for a moment.

The fourth master has extraordinary strength and is unique in the village; the third master has extraordinary martial arts and is a master of martial arts. In the village, he ranks first in terms of martial arts.

But he is not good at archery, what he is good at is assassination.

Where did this arrow come from?
It didn't matter where the arrow came from, as long as they could kill Xia Chixiao and the officers and soldiers were in chaos, they would have a chance to rush out and seize a way out.

The military advisor was overjoyed.

However, he seemed to be happy too early. When the arrow shot with murderous intent came in front of Xia Chixiao, Xia Chixiao just tilted his head slightly, then reached out and grabbed the arrow in his hand.

He looked sharply towards where the arrow came from, which was in the direction of Xizhai.

At this moment, there was a melee between bandits and officers and soldiers over there. The forest was dense, there were many people, and the night was dark. The little torches were not enough to illuminate people's faces. A person quickly ducked behind a tree to avoid Xia Chixiao's gaze.

Huo Ci led the garrison up and rushed up, giving them chicken blood while charging: "Brothers, the officers and soldiers led by General Xia have killed the mountain bandits to death. We just need to use the three moves we have practiced." , you can harvest a lot of heads. Every head is a credit, grab it quickly!"

Several ambushes at the bandits' strongholds at the foot of the mountain made the garrison weak at first and unable to hold their swords. Later, they were able to slash at the bandits without blinking an eye.

At that time, more people defeated less people, but their courage was really developed, and they had seen blood. Now, seeing the officers and soldiers killing like crazy, their blood was boiling.

Huo Ci turned around and said: "Mei Shouwei, with today's achievements, maybe you will be promoted. Let's go and have a big killing!"

Fighting hand to hand with bandits.

Except for a few garrison soldiers who fell into the trap, the other garrison troops rushed forward, howling and screaming, as if they had been given blood.

Mei Shijie couldn't believe it. This was the garrison he brought with him?
Those soft-haired shrimps, apart from their eyes shining when counting money and their strength, can run away faster than rabbits when faced with bandits. Usually, they tremble with fear when they hear that they go to suppress bandits.When did you take the initiative to rush towards the bandits?
There was no doubt in his mind that although the garrison was not as brave and well-trained as the officers and soldiers, none of them retreated.

At this time, he heard the military advisor shouting to Xia Chixiao.

The military advisor wants to surrender?

He was suddenly shocked.

If the military surrenders, in order to survive, he will explain everything clearly, and he will also explain everything about his previous visits to him with gifts.

Collusion between officials and gangsters adds another crime, does he still have a way to survive?

He glanced sideways and saw that Huo Ci had already led his men to kill him. There was a tree beside him and no one paid attention to him. There was a corpse of an officer and soldier who died in the melee on the ground, with a bow under his body.

He looked at Xia Chixiao in the distance, his eyes struggling.

He thought of Xia Xinhe's words, and finally, the struggle slowly turned into determination.He lifted up the corpses of the officers and soldiers and kicked them away, picked up the bow, took another arrow, stretched the bow string, aimed the arrow tip, loosened his hand, and shot the arrow with a whoosh.

The moment he ejaculated, he felt relaxed.

It's normal for people to die in a melee.

If Xia Chixiao is dead and the officers and soldiers are fighting with the bandits, who knows who shot the arrow?

Xia Chixiao actually dodged.

How could this young man dodge an arrow from his top ten warriors?
Mei Shijie hurriedly hid behind a tree so that Xia Chixiao could not see him.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he stepped aside, there was a heavy weight on his neck, and there was a dagger pressed there.

At the same time, three knives were pointed at him.

The owner of the dagger is Huo Ci, and the other three knives belong to the garrison.

Huo Ci had to smile before, but his eyes were cold, and he said: "General Xia received the news yesterday that his march plan was leaked, and he knew that there was a traitor among us, collusion between officials and bandits, Mei Guard, do you remember Are you a martial arts scholar and an official of the imperial court?"

Mei Shijie's lips trembled as he defended: "You say I'm a traitor, what evidence do you have?"

"You are hiding in the dark and firing cold arrows at General Xia. Doesn't this count as evidence?"

Mei Shijie refused to admit it: "I didn't shoot a cold arrow at General Xia. I shot at the bandit next to him, but my hand was crooked! Not everyone has the same archery skills as General Xia. My archery skills are not good, so I missed the target." It’s also normal!”

"You really can't shed tears until you see the coffin!" Huo Ci sneered: "You don't think we do anything except suppress bandits, do you? When you go to a place, the first thing is to understand the character and ability of a local official. Take a look Can you provide help in suppressing the bandits? You have privately interacted with the military advisor of Anping Village and accepted his gifts at least nine times. Do you think that the person who did everything was unaware of it? "

Mei Shijie's eyes trembled. Every time the military advisor came, he always dressed up in disguise, with different clothes and different looks. No more, no less. He came exactly nine times. How did they know?
Huo Ci added: "General Xia made a march plan and summoned me to discuss it. Everyone came with him to suppress the bandits. Everyone is trustworthy and there has never been any mistakes. But it happened here. Even if we didn't find out the private dealings between you and the military advisor regarding the leak of military information, we still know that it was you who did it!"

Mei Shijie suddenly turned pale.

He leaked Xia Chixiao's battle plan to the military adviser, hoping to use the power of Anping Village to get rid of Xia Chixiao.

What others do has nothing to do with him. If he dies at the hands of bandits, no one will doubt him.As long as he gives Xia Xinhe some gifts and then completes the roster, the matter of having to pay for his money will go smoothly.Even if the court sends people to investigate thoroughly, he is not afraid.

Before at the foot of the mountain, he had been expecting Xia Chixiao to die unexpectedly. He would see the situation at that time. If the officers and soldiers had the upper hand, he would also bravely kill the bandits, and he would be indispensable for the suppression of the bandits. If the officers and soldiers were defeated, he would take advantage of the chaos. Leave and save yourself.

He had calculated everything, but he didn't expect that he had become a traitor, but the officers and soldiers actually had undercover agents in Anping Village?Moreover, the undercover agent's status was not low, he was actually the leader of the village.

Fortunately, he had always had one-way contact with the military advisor. Even the undercover agent didn't know that there was a deal between him and the military advisor.This was also the reason why he dared to shoot Xia Chixiao just now.

Huo Ci glanced at him with disdain: "General Xia already knew about your free salary. He was not prepared to expose you, but was prepared to let you take away your merits. Even if you and the military advisor secretly communicated in private, General Xia also said Well, if you work hard to kill the bandits this time, you will be forgiven of the past, and you will even be given a share of the credit. It was you who narrowed your own path!"

Mei Shijie suddenly raised his head and said: "Impossible, how could he not expose me?"
