Chapter 45: The Price of Blood
Hearing someone knocking on the door outside, Lin Feng's expression immediately sank, and his eyes, which were as clear as water, also condensed into a layer of frost in an instant.
However, Huzi, who was still immersed in the hero's dream, did not realize the imminence of death at all, and just pouted to express his dissatisfaction with the fact that there were still people disturbing him late at night, and then shifted his attention to the old man.
At this time, the old man seemed to realize the approaching danger, and the cheeks, which were already thin like walnut skin, looked even more shriveled at this time. The cloudy eyes also dimmed in an instant, faintly, as if they were covered with a layer of dead ashes.
"Open the door, open the door, open the door quickly!" A more rapid knock on the door came again, making Lin Feng, the old man, and even Huzi suddenly startled in their hearts.
Lin Feng hesitated slightly for a while, and said in a condensed voice: "Uncle, you take Huzi to the inner room, no matter what happens, don't come out again!" ”
Before Lin Feng's words fell, two muddy and hot old tears rolled down from the corners of the old man's eyes.
"Are all the people inside dead, hurry up and open the door, if we don't open the door, we will just break into the door!" There was another angry roar outside the door.
"Big brother, is there a bad guy coming?" Huzi gently grabbed the corner of Lin Feng's clothes, and his big eyes, which were full of innocence and innocence, flashed back and forth.
Lin Feng gently patted Huzi's head, forced out a smile, nodded, and said, "Well, they are bad guys, brother, I'm a hero, I'm going to fight bad guys!" ”
Huzi suddenly patted his chest, which was not very strong, and swore and said: "Big brother, I am also a hero, and I will also fight the bad guys!" ”
Lin Feng smiled and responded: "Huzi is still young now, when he grows up, he will fight the bad guys with his brother, okay?" ”
Huzi nodded very obediently, and then stretched out the little thumb of his left hand and said, "Okay, big brother, you are not allowed to lie to Huzi, let's pull the hook!" ”
Seeing Huzi's outstretched little thumb, Lin Feng's expression was slightly stunned at first, and then he stretched out his little thumb and put it together with its groove.
"Pull the hook hook, hang the hook, whoever becomes a puppy is a puppy!"
Lin Feng gave the old man a look and motioned for him to take the tiger to the back room to hide.
The old man understood, secretly wiped away the old tears, and hugged the tiger.
Lin Feng watched the old man enter the inner room with the tiger in his arms, and muttered slightly for a while. The eye was drawn by the more and more rapid knocking on the door.
"Someone, knock the door open for me!"
However, the two guards were about to bang their bodies against the door when the door suddenly "creaked" open.
"It's the thief Lin Feng, brothers, come on!" The little leader at the head recognized Lin Feng, his expression was a little flustered, and his tone was a little hurried.
"Bang!"
Before his shout fell, a sword shadow flashing with cold light had already broken through the air!
The few guards who responded in a hurry didn't even have time to shout out a scream, and they had already died under Lin Feng's sword.
The guards who went to search for other courtyards noticed the anomaly here, and they rushed over like a rolling tide.
Lin Feng didn't dare to fight, the spirit sword in his hand waved left and right, and everywhere he went, blood gushed out, like a rain of blood. In an instant, the dark night when I couldn't see my fingers was stained red with blood.
However, at the moment when Lin Feng was about to take the road and kill, a childish shout had already reached his ears: "Big brother! ”
Hearing this shout, Lin Feng's heart was suddenly shocked, and the guards who surrounded him were also stunned.
However, soon a guard seized the great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, lifted his bright saber, and rushed towards Huzi.
However, in the face of the approaching death, Huzi was not afraid, picked up the wooden knife he usually played with, and shouted in a childish voice: "I am a hero, so I am not afraid of you bad guys!" ”
The guard showed a fierce face, and the cold and glittering saber in his hand suddenly raised, intending to slash at the tiger.
"Don't!" Lin Feng's face was full of horror, and he raised his throat and shouted.
At this moment of life and death, Huzi's grandfather suddenly rushed out and used his elderly body to protect Huzi to the death.
When the guard saw that he had slashed an old fellow to death, he felt even more proud in his heart. The butcher's knife, which was still full of blood in his hand, had been raised again.
However, before the scimitar could fall again, a sharp sword pierced his choked throat from behind.
"Uncle, uncle......" Lin Feng drew his sword and picked up the old man who was lying in a pool of blood.
Seeing that Huzi was safe and sound, the old man couldn't help but raise a faint smile on the corner of his shriveled mouth, turning the last life into five intermittent words: "Quick, bring, bring, Huzi, go, go, go......"
Before the word "go" fell, the old man had closed his eyes forever.
"Grandpa, grandpa!" Looking at his grandfather in a pool of blood, the shocked tiger instinctively howled and cried.
Looking at the old uncle's corpse, Lin Feng nodded heavily, and said with tears in his eyes: "Uncle, even if I, Lin Feng, die, it will be difficult to repay your great kindness, you can rest assured, as long as I, Lin Feng, am alive, I will definitely protect the tiger!" ”
Before the words landed, Lin Feng resolutely hugged Huzi, his blood-red eyes lingering with soaring killing intent. Like a bloodthirsty wolf in a state of madness, he glared fiercely at the guards who could pounce at any moment.
Those guards didn't dare to make eye contact with Lin Feng, or dodged and avoided, or were directly forced to retreat.
At this moment, a general of the Baili family raised his voice and shouted: "The head of my family said that anyone who captures the thief Lin Feng alive will have a reward of 100,000 coins!" ”
As soon as they heard that there was a reward of 100,000 gold coins to be awarded, the eyes of those guards suddenly flashed with brilliant golden light, and Lin Feng looked at him as if he was looking at a mountain of gold.
"Capture Lin Feng alive and offer a reward of 100,000 gold coins, brothers, on!" A small leader with a bright eye shouted at the top of his voice.
Before the words fell, he had already raised his bright scimitar, and rushed towards Lin Feng like a hungry tiger pounced on food.
Seeing this scene, the other guards were worried that the golden mountain in front of them would be taken first by others, so they all raised their swords one after another, like a group of bloodthirsty wolves, and rushed forward.
Lin Feng glanced at them coldly, and the spirit sword in his hand was like a poisonous snake out of a hole, flashing with a cold shadow and piercing through the air.
The little leader of the guards who rushed to the front had not yet recovered from the dream of 100,000 gold coins, and his whole body had become a puddle of mud, and he fell in a pool of blood forever.
Seeing the situation, Lin Feng hugged Huzi tightly with one hand, swung his sword and raised a wave of nine qi waves, breaking through the air and slashing out a gorgeous and dazzling sword shadow.
The guards who pounced on him were forced to retreat again and again by the fierce sword momentum.
At this time, Lin Feng did not have the slightest desire to fight, and after breaking through the air to make up for a sword, his toes suddenly clicked on the ground, like a dragonfly in water, jumped into the air, and used all his strength to perform the Misty Void Phantom Step, and walked over the wall to seize the road.
"Chase me, you must not let the thief Lin Feng escape!" When a general saw that the duck, which had been cooked, was flying under his nose again, his anger did not come anywhere, and after shouting in a rage, he led the crowd to chase after him.
Lin Feng's was already injured, and he also brought a tiger with him at this time. Therefore, the speed exerted by the Void Phantom Step is naturally greatly reduced. The shouts of the chasing soldiers behind him were getting closer and closer, as if the thunder of the Nine Heavens was ringing in his ears. And everywhere you look, there are all fire dragons moving closer to here.
"Dada, dada, dada......"
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from the street not far away, like a lulla.
Lin Feng's expression was like frost, and a rolling black cloud had already condensed between his eyebrows, so that he was almost out of breath.
At this time, the road to the Zhu Family Spiritual Hall had been blocked by the chasing soldiers who surrounded it. And now that there are chasing soldiers all around, he and Huzi have fallen into a desperate situation, and there is no way to escape!
Just when the deep despair resurfaced in Lin Feng's heart again, several ghost-like black shadows suddenly burst out.
Seeing this scene, Lin Feng's brows furrowed suddenly, and he raised his vigilance and asked coldly, "Who are you?" ”
The black-clothed man at the head glanced at the tiger in Lin Feng's arms, showed a disdainful sneer, and said, "It's all dying, and you're still in the mood to save others." ”
Hearing this voice, Lin Feng's heart sank suddenly, and he asked in a condensed voice, "Zhu Dan?" ”
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and the shouts of killing were also coming one after another, like a rolling tide, surging here from all directions.
The man in black at the head didn't care about Lin Feng's question, but coldly dropped a sentence: "If you don't want to die here, just follow me!" ”
With that, he turned around and walked into the deepest part of the night. However, the other guards did not have the slightest intention of moving.
Lin Feng hesitated slightly for a while, then glanced at the tiger in his arms who was in a trance, and quickly followed.
Just as Lin Feng had just followed, and after walking only a dozen steps, a group of iron horsemen had already killed.
But none of the black-clothed men followed, they all stayed where they were, fighting with the chasing dragon armor iron horsemen.
"These people have no intention of going back alive!" A very shocking thought sprung up in Lin Feng's heart.
Night, it's dark!
And the night of the alley, which is surrounded by high walls, is even darker. It's like a thick ink that can't be dissolved, and the black one can't perceive the existence of other life.
However, at this time, Lin Feng heard the sound of rapid breathing and the sound of hot blood rolling. And these voices all came from the leader of the men in black who led the way.
At this time, Lin Feng was already able to determine that this person must be Zhu Dan. Those black-clothed killers are also loyal dead soldiers raised by the Zhu family, and they may even be the children of the Zhu family. But now they are going to risk their lives for a person who has repeatedly destroyed the interests of their Zhu family, which is really unreasonable!
When things happen, there must be demons!
But Lin Feng racked his brains and didn't come up with a reasonable explanation, what is all this for?
Just as Lin Feng was meditating, Zhu Dan's cold voice came over again: "We have arrived!" ”
Hearing this, Lin Feng instinctively glanced around, and asked in a condensed voice, "Where is this?" ”
Zhu Dan replied coldly: "Where are you going!" ”
Lin Feng was stunned when he heard this, blurted out, and said, "Zhu Family Lingtang!" ”
Zhu Dan didn't speak, but snorted coldly with some resentment.
Then I saw him clapping his palms a few times, and the applause of "snapping" seemed a little weird in this gloomy environment.
Ben burst into applause, and several ghostly black shadows suddenly came out of the ground, only to hear one of them say, "Master, you're back!" ”
Zhu Dan nodded expressionlessly, and asked in a cold voice, "Are you ready?" ”
The man in black replied, "Back to the head of the family, everything has been arranged." ”
Zhu Dan sighed softly, with a little reluctance and helplessness, and said, "Okay, open the secret passage, and after we leave here, set a fire to burn this mourning hall." ”
The man in black was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his eyes like yin owls glanced behind Lin Feng, as if he was looking for something. Then I only heard him ask in a tentative tone: "Family master, don't you wait for Zhu Qiang and them?" ”
Zhu Dan didn't answer his question directly, but looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, and said, "Don't wait, they can't come back, do what I say!" ”
The man in black hesitated slightly, but still responded respectfully: "Yes, family master!" ”
Then I saw him walk quickly in front of Lin Feng, with a little anger in his gloomy eyes, and said coldly: "You two come with me!" ”
