Chapter Twenty-Three: The Enemy Arrives Again
Xue Wuying didn't wake up until midnight, and the fatigue of yesterday had been eliminated after a night's rest, and his spirit was back to his best state. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info left the inn, mounted his fierce horse, and whipped out of town. In a hurry, he didn't notice that in the restaurant opposite the inn, there was a person dressed in a flowing dress who had been paying attention to him, looked in the direction he left, and then turned back into an inconspicuous courtyard, and after a while, a carrier pigeon flew out of the courtyard.
On this day, Xue Wuying came to a small town called Yuhu, which is the only way to Guizhou. At this time, it was getting late, Xue Wuying casually found an inn, hastily ate dinner, and rested early.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, which woke up Xue Wuying in his sleep.
It was the sound of someone stepping over the roof, and there were more than one or two people.
Xue Wuying got out of bed gently, put on his shoes, and didn't take off his clothes when he slept, so he didn't need to wear them. He tiptoed to the window, dipped his index finger in a little saliva, and made a small hole in the window paper to look out.
There were more than a dozen black-clothed men in the courtyard of the inn, which should have been empty, all of them standing there straight, but they didn't make a sound. Each of them had a bright eye, and they all held a long knife in their hands, and one of them was still looking at the roof from time to time, obviously waiting for someone.
These people looked like well-trained people, and from the way they stood and the way they dressed, it was clear that they were people of the same sect.
The men didn't make a sound, just like stakes standing upright. With so many people coming here late at night, what are they going to do? Could it be that there are their enemies in this inn? They came late at night.
After a tea time, three more people jumped down from the roof, and they hugged their fists at one of the black-clothed men who looked like the leader, and said, "Captain, it's all arranged." ”
The captain was the man in black who looked at the roof from time to time, nodded, and said to one of them, "Go and call him out." ”
They all have Hubei accents.
Sure enough, there is an enemy here, I don't know who their enemy is? The three people who came down from the roof should have gone to arrange assassinations at various exits, and even if the enemy family could escape these people in the courtyard, they would not be able to escape from this inn. Xue Wuying said in his heart: "Could it be someone sent by the second uncle?" ”
The man in black came directly to the door of his room, knocked lightly twice, and said, "Xue Daxia, come out." He spoke in an unhurried tone, as if he had come to talk to an old friend. He seemed to have known that Xue Wuying was in this guest room, so he came to knock on the door directly.
Xue Wuying said in his heart: "It seems that it was really sent by the second uncle, how could they know my whereabouts?" I had been very careful to hide my tracks along the way, but they still found out. He took out the fire breaker, lit the oil lamp, and took the steel sword on the table in his hand.
The man in black saw the light in the room, took two steps back, and stood there quietly looking at the door.
The door squeaked open, and Xue Wuying stood at the door and said, "Who sent you?" The man he asked was the man in black standing in the doorway, but his eyes were on the captain.
It was the captain who answered him, and said, "My name is Zhang Yiji, and I am the captain of the guard team of the 'Hubei Sword King' family. ”
Xue Wuying said: "Is it my second uncle or the 'Hubei Sword King' Cai Hua who sent you?" ”
Zhang Yiji smiled slightly: "Is this any different?" ”
Xue Wuying said: "It's no different for you, but it's still different for me." "If it is someone sent by the Hubei Sword King, at least Xue Tengjiang still thinks of that trace of uncle and nephew, and he doesn't want to kill them all. If it is the ...... sent by Xue Tengjiang, I am afraid that I will never be able to go back to the Xue family, no matter what the final result is, I will not be able to go back.
Zhang Yiji said: "Of course, Xue Tengjiang Xue Second Master sent us. ”
Xue Wuying only felt a "buzz" in his brain, and his eyes were blank for a moment.
It's really a second uncle! Is that really a second uncle who treats him as his own son? Why is he so ruthless?
Xue Wuying forced himself to calm down, there was no time to be sad now, and he was surrounded by people who were ready to arrest him back to the Xue family.
What he wanted to know now was, how did they know their whereabouts?
"How do you know I'm here?"
"From the time you went ashore in Luzhou, everything about you is clear to us."
"You actually have eyeliner in Luzhou?" Xue Wuying's words couldn't help but reveal surprise, you must know that this place is more than a thousand miles away from Hubei, if every town has their people, at least thousands of people will be able to do it, where did they come from so many people?
"There are no people from us in Luzhou, and no one has so many manpower and financial resources." He looked at Xue Wuying, who was frowning, and continued: "I'll let you die to understand, the reason why I know your whereabouts is because you used a trick to disappear without a trace!" ”
"Lu Meng saw that I was using the Shadowless Sword Technique?"
"How could he see that you were using the Shadowless Sword Technique." Zhang Yiji explained: "It was Lu Meng who learned the trick you used to show others. ”
Lu Meng didn't know the Shadowless Swordsmanship, but when the injured Lu Meng showed others the move that made him injured, others saw that this was the ...... of the Shadowless Swordsmanship, no, someone already knew from Lu Meng that I was Xue Wuying, why didn't the 'Shuanghou of Sichuan' know? If they had known that they were Xue Wuying, they would definitely not have humiliated themselves, could ......
Xue Wuying sneered: "It was the Shuanghou of Sichuan who told you my whereabouts, right?" ”
Zhang Yijian asked rhetorically: "How do you think that your whereabouts were leaked by the Shuanghou of Sichuan?" ”
Xue Wuying said: "The Shadowless Sword Technique is the only one in the world, and I don't use it much, so I don't know too many people." Therefore, it is impossible to see the ordinary characters in the rivers and lakes, and the Shuanghou of Sichuan has been famous in the rivers and lakes many years ago, although he is not a first-class master, but it is not far away. He thought for a while and added: "When Fang Tiehou and I fought that day, he was defeated by my move 'immediate', and he must not have seen it clearly, because he was still very dissatisfied, and he wanted to join Fang Jinhou to attack me together." ”
Zhang Yiji just said "oh" and didn't answer, but waited for Xue Wuying to continue.
Xue Wuying said again: "Fang Jinhou is different, he is watching the battle from the sidelines, Fang Tiehou has always had the upper hand, and he is even more relaxed because of him." When he found that Fang Tiehou couldn't dodge my sword, it was too late to make a move, but he saw my move clearly. When Fang Tiehou wanted his brothers to join forces to deal with me, Fang Jinhou stopped him instead. When he turned his back on me, he must have used some method that I don't know to tell Fang Tiehou about it. Therefore, although Fang Tiehou did not make another move in the end, he still had a look of disbelief on his face when he left. ”
Zhang Yizhen nodded and said, "I don't know how the Fang family brothers moved with you, but your whereabouts were indeed told to us by Fang Jinhou." For Xue Wuying's inference, he obviously agreed.
Although his inference was correct, he was not happy in his heart.
No matter who it is, they can't be happy at this time.
Xue Wuying not only couldn't be happy, but even secretly blamed himself for being too careless, thinking that he would not be recognized if he used a sword technique with chopsticks, but he still leaked his whereabouts.
Zhang Yizhen didn't give him much time to regret it, and said, "Then you can go with us." ”
Xue Wuying said: "I don't know if my second uncle asked you to bring me back alive or dead this time?" ”
He has always hoped that Xue Tengjiang will not poison him, after all, he should know him very well after decades of close relationship like father and son, and he only hopes that someone is making trouble in secret, and he can't let go of this family affection.
Zhang Yiji smiled "hehe" and said, "Then it depends on whether Xue Daxia is willing to go back with us." ”
Xue Wuying said: "What if you don't want to? ”
Zhang Yiji said: "That is, it doesn't matter if you live or die." ”
Xue Wuying's heart was half cold, he was so sad, the second uncle actually believed that woman's words, and he wanted his own life indiscriminately, and he didn't even want to listen to his explanation.
When he was sad and desperate, a wave of anger also rose in his heart, he pulled out the stainless steel long sword in his hand, raised his hand, and said, "If Xue Mou voluntarily goes back with you, it is impossible, unless you bring my body back!" ”
Zhang Yijian showed a treacherous smile on his face, and said, "Then we can only invite you back." ”
Xue Wuying said angrily: "Are you on one by one, or together?" ”
Zhang Yiji said: "Xue Dagongzi's shadowless swordsmanship, there is no next certainty, only we can understand it together." After speaking, he said to the people left and right: "Let's go up together, this time we must 'invite' Xue Dagongzi back!" ”
Sixteen or seventeen black-clothed men pulled out the knife in their hands with a brush, the tip of the knife pointed at Xue Wuying, and no one made a sound.
Zhang Yiji said: "Do it!" ”
More than a dozen people surrounded Xue Wuying, and the circle of encirclement also changed from one to two inside and outside. There were only seven people in a circle inside, and twelve people in an outer encirclement.
The seven people inside used the Big Dipper Seven Star Array, which is a relatively common array, but the power is really not small, and the first-class masters are also dead when they fall into the array.
Twelve people outside, using a relatively rare twelve-day dry formation, each person represents a day, twelve people just form a circular formation, although this formation does not have much effect on the enemy, but the enemy is indeed a first-class formation.
It took Jiang Pei, the world's number one master, to break the Twelve Days Dry Formation.
With such two formations, even if he broke the Seven-Star Beidou Formation inside for a while, the Twelve Heavenly Dry Formation outside would trap him, and would not give Xue Wuying a chance to escape.
