Chapter 8: The Siege!
Cuicui recalls her painful experience - she can't find a job outside, let alone in this unfamiliar place?
Unconsciously, Cuicui walked to a temple, not like a Buddhist temple, not like a Taoist temple, the big red wall painted with a variety of totemic-like rare birds and beasts, the scale is very grand. People at the main gate are in and out, a prosperous scene.
Maybe it's the worship of the country's special gods, Cuicui guessed casually.
After entering the door, I saw a sitting statue of the goddess about six or seven meters, with bright lacquer and thin gilding. The facial expression is extremely delicate, the eyebrows seem to have the bearing of fraternity for all beings, and the slightly upturned corners of the mouth make her appear soft and kind.
Such ingenious skills may have come from the hands of the best carvers in China, and the status of this goddess in the hearts of the people can also be imagined.
"It's the goddess of our peach source country, Sequoia Niangniang. "It's a man's voice, not too deep, not too crisp and frivolous, and it makes a good first impression.
But Cuicui is still nervous, won't she be beaten again?
She looked at the man, who was wearing a pair of sunglasses and his long hair was tied in an unruly ponytail. He has a straight smile on the corner of his mouth, looks at himself with a friendly face, and his tough face lines and freehand thick eyebrows are also a little handsome, at least they are not annoying!
Cuicui, who is not good at socializing, planned to wait for the man to continue to confirm his intentions, but the man did not continue......
After a long silence...... "Who are you?" asked Cuicui.
"Ah, I'm a handsome man. The man suddenly shook his long black hair and took off his sunglasses. His eyes were clear, reflecting confidence and purity, but Cuicui didn't know why, and he felt a little broken.
The man still smiled very kindly, and shouted, "Ah, my new invention has succeeded, see? Sequoia Niangniang!
His expression didn't change, but he raised the sunglasses in his hand and waved them at the statue of the Sequoia Lady.
The people in the temple neatly stopped their movements and quickly exited the gate, and the whole process was smooth and smooth, without a trace of panic, as if they had been trained.
Amazingly, a large number of soldiers sprang out of nowhere in the lobby, quickly surrounding the man and Cuicui.
The soldiers, about a few hundred people, surrounded them on the inside and outside of the three floors, and it seemed that there was no way out.
Who am I? Where am I? Why is this happening?
"The prince really appeared in the Phantom Mountain Temple again, it's really good, the one next to him seems to be a new wanted criminal, right?"
Well, Cuicui's plan to pretend to be innocent was shattered in an instant.
"Don't be too happy, it's useless if you can't catch it!"
"Be quiet, take it seriously!" a stern female voice made the whispering soldiers clench their weapons and prepare to attack.
The woman in the lead had a bow and arrow in her hand, while the other soldiers had spears in their hands, and she didn't know how much weaker she was compared to the group of demons she had encountered when Cuicui first came here.
However, who is weaker than Cuicui?
"I said Aunt Leng Shu, if you hurt me, the imperial brother will blame you~Na~ Let me go, Aunt Leng Shu. The man said this in a cheerful tone, but he was not afraid in the face of hundreds of troops.
The leading woman was unmoved, and said sharply: "Rebel Jiangchuan! Hugh wants to make a fuss about the emperor's benevolence." Marshal Zhang has an order to capture Jiang Chuan at all costs, whether he lives or dies!"
Leng Shu waved her right hand, and the soldiers were about to swarm up.
"I throw in the towel!" Cui Cui shouted.
The audience was silent for a second.
Jiang Chuan said: "No, she didn't. ”
The soldiers still swarmed up.
What else can Cuicui do? It's too unlucky to be passively tied to this big criminal Jiang Chuan.
Looking at the bright weapons in front of her, Cuicui dodged the attack of the soldiers, hugged the goddess statue very shamelessly, and climbed up.
Looking at Cuicui's despicable behavior, Leng Shu snorted coldly and ordered: "Be careful not to hurt the Sequoia Niangniang!
Leng Shu looked at Cuicui who was constantly climbing up and raised her eyebrows, she had already set up troops on the roof of the temple, Cuicui was already a turtle in the urn, and it was difficult to fly with wings.
Jiang Chuan kept dodging, although this was a weak army, but once he made a move, it was not as simple as casualties.
Leng Shu is the user of the Leaf Bow, a powerful dryad, and she is also the supreme commander of the entire Phantom Continent army.
The defeat of her clan had made her well aware of the power of the invaders, and she had not expected this ordinary human army to capture two criminals, and as an archer, the human soldiers had created her favorite chaotic scenes.
A powerful shooter that only needs distance. Chaos doesn't bother her, because she doesn't miss.
Jiang Chuan in the hall knows Leng Shu too well, this woman has definitely surrounded the temple, even from the roof, he can't escape, he looked at Cuicui sitting on the shoulder of the sequoia lady, a little puzzled, why do you want to go to the road to death?
"Be careful!" Cuicui yelled.
The flying leaf, which was sharper than a feather arrow, broke away from the bowstring, and was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it approached Egawa. At that moment, a powerful killing intent enveloped him......
"Amazing speed. The flying leaf sank into the walls of the temple, and the place where it passed opened a passage in the encirclement, and the dead and wounded soldiers fell to the ground neatly, with no other scars, only a small opening through the body.
The soldiers who were attacking just now all stopped their movements and just looked at Leng Shu blankly.
"Lord Leng Shu, why? Why do you want to hurt our companions!"
"Why is this happening?
......
The soldiers' anger immediately made them go berserk, but they still believed Leng Shu in their hearts.
Isn't it normal for Cuicui to sit on the head of the Sequoia Lady and quietly stretched out her little thumb to compare, not daring to be really seen by them.
Whispering before the fight is worthy of criticism, is it so unorganized and undisciplined? Cuicui now hopes that these hundreds of soldiers will quickly pit their leader to death, and then they will be safe!
"Hey, there's one thing, I have to apologize to you!" Jiang Chuan kept a polite smile, "I don't have enough time, so I have to go!"
Jiang Chuan unhurriedly took out a long rod-shaped iron weapon, and the movements of the soldiers who were attacking him suddenly slowed down a lot, as if they were worried about something.
"Prohibited weapons?" Even Leng Shu, who had a tough attitude, didn't look good.
"All soldiers get out of here and surround the temple!" Leng Shu shouted, deciding to fight against the two "most vicious" criminals on her own.
The soldiers poured out of the main entrance of the hall with swiftness, like a flock of ducks being chased by a farmer.
Jiang Chuan stroked the weapon in his hand, and a polite smile appeared on his face: "Aunt Leng Shu, just to catch the handsome me, are you ready to accept the punishment of destroying the temple?"
Leng Shu pulled out the bowstring, and an emerald green leaf was pasted on the string with cold light: "General Zhang will bear all the consequences...... There are no people in the way, you should worry about yourself first!"
Talk, off the strings. This attack felt completely different from the last time, and the flying leaves turned into a phantom in the air, splitting into two pieces, and attacking Cuicui and Jiang Chuan respectively.
Jiang Chuan freely avoided the title page and looked in the direction of Cuicui.
Unexpectedly, Cuicui was really hit, and the blood at the shoulder joint continued to ooze.
She grinned in pain: "Attack a little girl who has no ability to resist! Ah, I'm convinced!! don't hit me!"
Jiang Chuan sighed softly, the reward of 5 Jiang coins is still a little more for this girl......
He stroked the weapon in his hand: "I don't want to use my baby either, you forced me~"
