After running for a quarter of an hour, Gu Liang looked back and saw that the people were still following him. Gu Liang realized that something was wrong and drove very fast. As long as he passed the Huangtu Ridge in front, there would be people ahead. Huangtu Ridge was where Gu Liang had put the bear's body down before, and the road was between two mountain ridges. Li Donghua also noticed something was wrong and reminded Gu Liang that the people following behind did not look like locals. She had been in the village for half a year, and even if she was not familiar with the people in the village, she would have a familiar face. Obviously, she had never seen these people before. Gu Liang naturally knew that these people had ulterior motives. Most people on this road were usually from their village. Since their family started selling wine, more and more strangers came to their house to buy wine. However, since these strangers bought wine, most of them drove carts or carried loads, and they would never leave the village empty-handed like them.

"Auntie, hold on tight, I'll let the ox run faster. These people have been running with us for a long time, and their physical strength is not that good. After passing Huangtuling, there are people in front of us, and we will be safe then."

Gu Liang said to Li Donghua who was sitting on the cart while swinging the whip quickly, making a puffing sound in the air to remind the yellow ox to run faster.

Their car is basically empty, so it is relatively easy to get rid of others.

Just as Gu Liang was about to climb the slope of Huangtuling, a pine tree fell straight in front of their car, preventing him from passing.

It seems that they are preparing to attack from both sides, Gu Liang thought to himself, and at the same time, he took out his crossbow from the space in the chaos. After storing it many times, his movements were smooth and flowing, and ordinary people would basically not notice it if they didn't pay special attention.

Many people came out from both sides of the fallen pine tree, all dressed as normal civilians, and they couldn't be distinguished among the crowd.

Gu Liang thought that although Huangtuling was a good place for highway robbery, there were relatively few people walking here, all of them were civilians, so there was no ambush value. Moreover, their place has been prosperous for many years, and they have never heard of any mountain bandits. In this case, this group of people must be coming for him.

The road in Huangtuling is narrow, and only one car can barely pass through. There is no chance to turn around, otherwise the cow can rush back, and no one can stop it.

"Gentlemen, I am from Lanxi Village, and this is my aunt's elder sister. We are both farmers in the village. We are here to deliver things to people this time. There is really nothing to rob. Please let us go!" Gu Liang said in a very loud voice, thinking of dealing with it first, and then looking for any chance to escape. Moreover, although their family is rich now, they only pay attention to food and drink, and don't pay too much attention to clothes, so there is no difference between what they wear and what the people in the village wear, except that there are no patches on their clothes.

And Li Donghua also added tremblingly: "Heroes, we are really ordinary people, and we don't have much money. As the saying goes, rob the rich but not the poor, please let us go."

However, Gu Liang and the others did not get a response. Some people who came out from behind the pine tree silently took out a few axe from behind, with threatening expressions in their eyes.

Since this trick didn't work, Gu Liang could only suppress his fear and said to them: "If you don't want to return empty-handed, the most valuable thing in our family is this cow. If you don't mind, I am willing to give you both the cow and the car. Can you let us go?"

But the other side remained motionless, just fiddling with the tools in his hands.

Seeing that the people behind were getting closer and closer, Gu Liang could only give Li Donghua a hint, reminding her to find the right opportunity to run. Li Donghua has been close to Gu Liang since the group of people blocked them, and she also understood Gu Liang's eyes at this time.

At this time, the people on the top saw that the people behind had already reached the bottom of Huangtu Ridge, and the two men had no chance of escaping, so they said: "Good boy, you have been surrounded by us, so don't try to delay time. Gu Liang, someone wants to talk to you about something, you'd better follow us!"

Gu Liang thought to himself that it was not good. His name was known by the other side. It seemed that they came prepared and had been planning for a long time.

If this group of people did not have weapons, he could really go with the other side. Since they were not here for money, but came for him, they came for the secret recipe of white wine. As long as the other party offered good conditions, he could naturally sell the secret recipe.

However, this group of people

If they had weapons in the mountains, it would be hard to say. Who knows if they would kill people to silence them? In this case, he just wanted to run quickly. He was familiar with the terrain of Huangtuling. As long as he entered the mountain, everything would be fine.

Gu Liang sat behind the cow to block the view of the people below, so he secretly wound up the crossbow. Only four people in the group had knives, and the others had sticks. It might be easy to scare people if they all had knives. In order to hide on the road, most of them had sticks. It was enough to chop some on the roadside.

But this also provided an opportunity for Gu Liang. They would never have thought that Gu Liang had a crossbow in his hand. After all, hard bows and crossbows were prohibited by the court from private ownership.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~" Gu Liang shot three arrows in a row while everyone was not paying attention, all at the people with hatchets. Because it was in a hurry, Gu Liang did not dare to shoot at their vital points, just wanting them to be intimidated and retreat. The first two arrows hit the thighs of the two men, and the last arrow was noticed and dodged.

"Aunt, run quickly."

Gu Liang gave an order and quickly jumped out of the car and ran to the earthen ridges on both sides.

These people were obviously frightened by the arrows shot by Gu Liang. No one knew that this kid actually carried such a weapon with him. The two people who were shot by Gu Liang at the same time also burst into miserable shouts.

Gu Liang and Li Donghua ran to the bottom of the earthen ridge. As long as they climbed up, they could enter the mountain.

However, they obviously underestimated the sloping cliff that had just rained yesterday. After a fierce rush, neither of them climbed up.

At this time, the group of robbers also reacted and shouted to rush quickly, not to let Gu Liang run away.

Gu Liang quickly turned around again, activated the crossbow and shot a bow at the person in front. The situation was urgent, and Gu Liang was afraid of missing the target, so he shot a little bit downwards, just hitting the man's... crotch.

The person who was shot couldn't stand up in pain, and knelt on the ground and kept shouting. When the others saw that the man was shot in the crotch, they suddenly felt a chill in their crotch and covered their crotches.

Gu Liang took the opportunity to climb up again and grabbed a thatch on the slope. However, as expected, when he was about to climb up, due to the sticky loess after the rain, his feet lost their support and slid down, and his whole body was hanging on the beam like smoked bacon during the Chinese New Year.

Seeing Gu Liang like this, Li Donghua quickly stuck to the slope, hoping that Gu Liang would step on her shoulders to climb up.
