Chapter 358 Gu Chen deliberately involved Qi Heng's Ninth Legion, of course, he also had his purpose.
In fact, it is very easy to convince Qi Heng, and there is no need to find Guo Jue as a lobbyist at all.
Now Qi Heng's status in the Wind Country is already very high, he is a dignified legion leader, and the only thing he lacks is prestige.
The kidnapping of Monroe's son by bandits this time is not a trivial matter, and if he can really succeed in rescuing people, it will undoubtedly increase his prestige a lot.
This kind of good opportunity to earn fame without effort, how could Qi Heng miss it Gu Chen's estimation was not wrong at all, when he found Qi Heng and asked the latter for help, Qi Heng didn't think much about it, and even patted his chest and agreed.
That night, as soon as the hour passed, Monroe went to the place where the ransom was agreed to be paid, taking the gold and silver borrowed from Tang Yin at the request of the kidnappers.
He was accompanied by four porters dressed as grooms, and the other was Montaigne dressed as a subordinate.
The kidnappers' intentions were unknown, saying that they were asking for ransom, but who knew if they had other plans, he was not worried about letting his father go alone, and insisted on following, and finally Monroe couldn't resist him, so he had to nod and agree.
Meng Luo and Montaigne were six people, and they took five cars together, except for the one of the Meng family's father and son, the other four cars were full of gold and silver.
There was nothing to say on the way, and after leaving the city, they successfully arrived at the place where the ransom was paid.
It was a glade in the middle of a forest, twenty paces square, surrounded by dense woods.
When they arrived, there were already people waiting here.
It was four men in black of different heights, all dressed in black power suits, black thin-soled fast boots under their feet, black scarves on their faces, and only two sparkling eyes were exposed from top to bottom.
Seeing these four people, Montaigne, who was driving the car, trembled, even if he didn't use the technique of insight, only through the spiritual pressure that naturally emanated from the other party's body, he could already feel that the other party had a good spiritual martial cultivation.
He glanced at the four men in black for a moment, then jumped out of the carriage, raised his head and asked, "My son-in-law is in your hands."
None of the four answered, and after a while, when Montaigne couldn't help but want to ask again, one of them walked out, he took two steps forward, his voice was low and cold, and asked, "Have you brought all the things we want?"
Sure enough, it was the kidnapper Montaigne who took a deep breath, pointed behind him, and said, "Twenty thousand taels of silver, two thousand taels of gold, a lot of money, all in the car." ” Hearing this, the other party's eyes lit up obviously, and a strange brilliance was emanated.
That's the brilliance of seeing money.
It's not a fake, it's an instinctive reaction. 20,000 taels of silver, 2,000 taels of gold, they have never seen so much money since they were young, to say that they are not impressed at all, it is absolutely a lie.
The man in black paused for a moment, then looked Montaigne up and down and asked, "Who are you and we are going to see Monroe." ” Montaigne snorted and said, "What you want is money, and now that I have brought the money, you can release it, and tell me where my son-in-law is being held."
"We won't tell you anything until we meet Monroe," the man in black was resolute.
Montaigne secretly wondered if these kidnappers didn't care whether the gold and silver they brought was real or fake, why did they repeatedly ask to see their father, could it be that they were really drunkards who didn't want to drink, and wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate their father Before he could speak, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and Meng Luo walked out of the car and said loudly to the black-clothed man opposite: "The old man is the gold and silver that Meng Luo asked for, and the old man has already brought all of it, now, you should let Meng Chong go."
The four men in black looked at each other, and then nodded their heads one after another, and the man in charge raised his palm, slapped three times in a row, and with a crisp slap, two more men in black dressed exactly the same came out of the woods on the side.
One of them was still carrying a round winter package in his hand.
When the two men stepped forward, the man who wrapped the package shook his arm and threw the package directly in front of Monro and Montaigne.
The father and son of the Meng family were shocked, and Meng Luo subconsciously asked, "What is this?"
Montaigne didn't ask much, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and quickly crouched down and unwrapped the package.
Inside was a bloody human head, the expression of the human head was hideous and terrifying, but it was vaguely visible that it was Meng Chong's severed head.
Seeing his brother's head with his own eyes, Montaigne's head buzzed, and he was struck by lightning and stayed where he was.
At the same time, Meng Luo on the side also saw the appearance of the severed head clearly, and the old man's body trembled, as if he had been drained of his strength in an instant, and he collapsed to the ground on the spot.
"You just want money, why did you kill my brother" Montaigne lowered his head, others could not see his expression clearly, but they could see drops of water dripping from his face to the ground.
From his trembling voice, it can also be judged that he is at this time extremely sad and angry.
"He saw what we looked like, and it was a last resort to kill him."
The man in black at the head said lightly, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
"You" Montaigne looked up sharply, his white face was already full of tears, his eyes were red, and a fierce light as sharp as a knife shot from inside, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "All of them deserve to die" As he spoke, his body that was originally squatting on the ground was like an arrow from the string, and he rushed straight forward, and before the man in black approached, his sword was already in his hand, and he completed the spiritualization.
When he is fast, the black-clothed man led by him is not slow, drawing his sword, spiritualizing, and raising his sword to block, all in one go.
The two spirit swords collided in one place, emitting a piercing golden sound, and the cloud of sparks that burst out was particularly dazzling in the dark night.
"Today, you all have to die" The spirit swords of the two were in one place, not separated for a long time, Montaigne gritted his teeth and roared at the man in black, and while speaking, the aura emanated from around his body, enveloping his body layer by layer, and in an instant, the aura turned into spirit armor, wrapping his head and torso tightly.
On the other side, the black-clothed man who was the leader was almost completely armored at the same time.
Subsequently, the two started a desperate fight.
Montaigne and the man in black moved their hands, and the four men who accompanied him were all around Monroe, and one of them reached into his arms, took out the letter cannon, and lit the twist, only to hear a muffled sound, and a large dazzling fire burst into the sky.
"Killing" the remaining men in black either drew their knives or drew their swords, and rushed towards Monroe's side together, and the solitary battle between Montaigne and the man in black on the field turned into a chaotic battle between the two sides.
The four doormen brought by Meng Luo are all outstanding top players in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone's Lingwu is not weak, but the Lingwu of the man in black is obviously superior, and the number of people is more than that of the doorman, so he has firmly gained the upper hand on the scene.
Let's say that the letter cannon released by the doorman attracted the Ninth Legion, which had been waiting for miles away.
Its corps commander Qi Heng personally went into battle, with 5,000 heavily armored cavalry, and rushed over.

Before the hoplites could reach the scene, they were attacked by men in black as they marched into the woods.
The man in black who appeared first held a spirit spear and jumped down from the treetops, the person was still in mid-air, and the spirit spear had already swept out.
Two crisp sounds were heard in the ear chakra, and the two hoplites who rushed to the front were swept in the chest by the spirit spear, and the two screamed and both dismounted their horses, and their bodies bounced backwards and flew out.
After landing, the two struggled for a while, but they couldn't stand up.
The strength of the spirit spear of the man in black is not small, and thanks to the thick armor they wear, they were able to save the lives of the two, but after the two of them fell to the ground, the life-saving armor became a heavy burden, and they couldn't even sit up by their own strength.
Seeing that there was a sneak attack from the enemy in the forest, the hoplites immediately stopped advancing, and quickly shrank and gathered into a group, forming a battle formation that was both offensive and defensive.
When they lined up in formation, the man in black who had just made a sneak attack was gone.
For the cavalry, the woods were definitely one of their nightmares, not only was the high mobility greatly weakened, but the trees also greatly blocked their view.
The sound of fierce fighting in the middle of the woods could be faintly heard here, but the subordinates stopped, Qi Heng was furious, and shouted at the surrounding people: "It's just a few kidnappers, what battle formation are you still arranged, force me to rush over" As soon as he gave the order, both up and down, and the five thousand heavily armored cavalry began to charge towards the center of the dense forest again.
As soon as they moved, the men in black reappeared, some coming out from behind the trees, some out of the haystacks, and some jumping straight down from the trees.
As the men in black appeared one after another, the screams of the heavy cavalry team also came and went, and from time to time someone fell off their horses, lying on the ground or lying down, struggling to get back up.
Before he had taken twenty steps, there were no less than a hundred heavily armed knights who had fallen off his horse, and Qi Heng was angry and angry, separated his subordinates in front, and he ran to the front.
He also wanted to see what kind of people and what kind of outstanding skills the bandits who could make his carefully trained heavy cavalry suffer one after another.
He rushed to the front first, and after walking not far away, a man in black locked him, and with two whistles, two men in black fell from a tree, and one shot out of the grass, one up and down, hitting Qi Heng's head and lower abdomen.
The two of them came suddenly, and the speed of the move was also fast, if it was replaced by someone else, he might be caught off guard, but Qi Heng's Lingwu was too strong, he sat upright on the horse, not moving like a mountain, and when the attack of the two black-clothed men was about to approach, the Nine Turns Soul Breaking Knife in his hand was as fast as lightning and swung a knife up and down.
The person who sneaked up from the grass was shocked by Qi Heng's heavy knife and his wrist was numb, and he took a few steps back, and the one who jumped down from the treetops was shaken by Qi Heng's knife and was shaken up two meters high by Qi Heng's knife, and how he jumped from the treetops and was bounced back.
"Hum the little ones, they dare to compete with the sun and the moon" Qi Heng sneered, and between waves of his arms, the chaotic wind was released overhead
