Chapter 16: Behind Bars
The old man was restless at home, but Zuo Chen was very calm, taking advantage of the cover of night, before the old man's two apprentices could follow, the sedan chair had quickly arrived at the shop.
"Third child, what's the situation? Why are you so flustered? ”
Just turned the corner, the little sixth son who peeked behind a stout old locust tree, asked the third child behind him, such a panicked and hurried task, he was very puzzled, this is very different from the master's previous steady style, usually the master carefully arranged and advised, this time it was different, he didn't even see the master's face, and was taken out of the general's mansion by the third child.
"It's the little boy who is hiding from the master and wants to take action, and it is estimated that there will be danger......"
"Be careful, someone is following."
Without waiting for the third child to explain in detail, Xiao Liuzi found the clue, two people who obviously had some skills appeared on the corner of the street, glanced at each other, and quickly ran up, must have found that the two people who were following were gone.
Pulling the third child, the little sixth son who squatted down whispered: "What is the identity of the other party, and how is he from the army?" Is it an official family? ”
After a half-circle around the old locust tree, the third child became a little anxious, "The master's guess is right, the little boy will really be in danger, do you know that there is a shortcut to copy the past?" ”
"What do you think? This is a gathering area for dignitaries, and the roads are all horizontal and vertical, how can there be ......, and here it is again......"
With Xiao Liuzi's whisper, people in a hurry appeared on the corner of the street one after another, all of them were windy, and there were about a dozen people, holding the handle of the knife at their waists, and running forward at great speed.
The third child was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and he couldn't stop Zuo Chen, but he was entrusted by the master, and he didn't have a short way to rush to the shop, which made him even more helpless, and before he could stand up, more than a dozen people ran over.
"The situation is unexpectedly serious, I have to go back to the house to report to the master, and I will follow...... You go and come back quickly......" The third child didn't wait for the little sixth son to answer, so he hurriedly followed.
"Be careful! These two teams of people are not ...... all the way" Xiao Liuzi, who lowered his voice, saw the third child waving his hand and returned in a panic.
Zuo Chen naturally didn't know anything about the old man's arrangement.
The shops on both sides of the street were already holding their lamps, and the lanterns hanging high outside the doors showed a dim yellow light, although Zuo Chen could not see the faces of passers-by clearly, he could still tell from his vigorous steps and the saber at his waist that he was a pedestrian, which was a possible enemy.
"Uncle Zhang, this sight is not good at all, quickly remove the archers on the roof, and leave a few with good eyesight in case of emergency." Zuo Chen, who discovered the problem, hurriedly instructed Zhang Youcai to adjust the plan, "I can already see the people with swords hanging from their waists one after another, and I ordered to go down and prepare for battle!" The idlers and others all retreated to the backyard house, and they were not allowed to go out half a step! ”
I don't know if I will rush into the shops in a swarm, Zuo Chen is a little worried that the newly decorated shops will be destroyed, and he muttered, "The miscellaneous pieces raised by the son of a bitch, dare to destroy Lao Tzu's shop, Lao Tzu has to burn down your old nest!" ”
Wu Jiang hid by another window and said disdainfully: "Still in this idle mood? I don't know the situation, they dare to rush in, either stupid or crazy, rest assured. Want to burn down someone's nest? You'll have to find another reason. ”
The embarrassed Zuo Chen's face was flushed, but fortunately, the night was getting darker, and there was no lamp in the house, so naturally he couldn't see it.
"Wait another two quarters of an hour, ...... the miscellaneous don't rush in, let's create a chance for him, and will he not do it on the way home?"
"What? Didn't you want them to gather more men? Wu Jiang asked puzzled.
“…… Something doesn't feel good! Looking at the steady pace of these people, they must be well-trained and a little tricky! We have too few people, and we are afraid that something will happen! ”
Two quarters of an hour of time, quickly flowed away, just like Wu Jiang said, the opponent really did not rush into the shop, everyone knew in their hearts, the more this is the case, the more it shows that the opponent is calm and calm, the more it shows that the opponent is not a grass chicken and a dog, not as easy to deal with as a garrison soldier. On the way back to their homes, everyone was finally able to confirm that the opponent was really not easy to match!
The sedan chair traveled halfway through the commercial street, and the opponents ignored the horror of passers-by, and waved their knives one after another, so frightened that passers-by ran to the eaves in a panic. The quick-eyed "sedan chair man" threw down the sedan chair, and Zuo Chen quickly retreated, making all the opponents stunned - what was the situation, throwing down Lao Liu Tou and running for his life? Is this the work of a grandson? Why is there no shouting in the sedan chair?
The round arm was rounded, and there was a chopping, and after a few clicks, the sedan chair was broken and scattered on the ground, where was the shadow of the old Liu Tou? A few rocks rolled out, presumably to confuse everyone into looking like the sedan chair was a bit heavy.
"Fooled! Old Liu Tou is not in the sedan chair, follow me to kill the general! One shouted, "Quick! Don't let them escape......"
The matter has come to this point, there is no reason to return and retreat in vain, otherwise, how to go back and explain to the head of the family? There is no shadow of Lao Liu Tou in the sedan chair, it must be in the opposite team, the eyeliner is clear, and Lao Liu Tou did come to the shop in a sedan chair.
With this shout, a group of people screamed, raised their knives and rushed in the direction of Zuo Chen's retreat.
"Son of a bitch! Why are there so many people, there are almost twice as many people before and after! Zhang Kang's face was full of nervousness, and he shouted angrily.
"Shut up!" Zhang Youcai held a long knife in his hand, calculated the distance of his opponent without blinking, quickly raised his hands, and quickly waved down.
"Buzz......" There was a sound of arrows.
"Ahh ……”
"There is an ambush! Disperse! ”
"I'm grass!"
After a period of noise, they hid in the shadows of the street, and no one paid attention to the first to bear the brunt, and the people who were wounded by the arrows rolled on the street "Ahh
"Quick! Rush over and fight, and the archers lose their power! The leader who had been shouting again shouted loudly.
Zuo Chen knew that the scuffle was inevitable, but it was a pity that the lurking archers could not exert enough power in the dark night to inflict more damage on the opponent.
The frightened passers-by have retreated, leaving only the blood of the people with swords in their hands, and for a while a group of people are in disheveled clothes and sweating.
A force split, blocked by the enemy's horizontal knife, Zuo Chen flew up is a kick, the opponent rolled the ground gourd to the ground, and before he could get up, he was made up by Wu Jiang, who was quick with his eyes, and screamed miserably, it was already a life!
With this free time, Zuo Chen waved his arm vigorously at Wu Jiang - break through!
"Roar......" Wu Jiang sent a signal to break through in his mouth, and his hands increased his strength, and few opponents could fight in close quarters.
Zuo Chen was also a little anxious, being dragged desperately by the opponent was simply struggling, looking at it was a state of stalemate, Wu Jiang and Zhang Youcai even if they were outstanding in martial arts, they only had a slight upper hand, and the overwhelming idea of abusing and killing the opponent was far from having the slightest hope. It is not known whether the opponent has backup.
Fortunately, Zuo Chen was prepared and injured several opponents with arrows and crossbows. Otherwise, this battle will be even more difficult.
"Someone!" At this time, Zuo Chen could no longer care about the plan of letting the people after the break attack and kill the enemy, and shouted loudly.
"Ahh......h
The voice of "roaring ......" in response sounded, and Zuo Chen's hearts were suddenly full of confidence.
"They have a back! Kill ......" The leader of the enemy noticed the clue, and shouted to urge his side to kill the enemy bravely.
"Dog offal!" Zuo Chen scolded angrily, followed the prestige to remember his position, and moved horizontally and vertically in his direction.
Before he could move a few steps, he heard the noisy shouting of killing in front of him, and he didn't need to think deeply about it, knowing that the ten people who were lurking at the corner of the street to rescue were also entangled. couldn't help but reddened his eyes even more, he was already holding the long knife with both hands, and it was completely a posture of looking at death as home.
"Childe! I'll cover you to get out......" Wu Jiang, who was red-eyed, was stabbed in the back, still unabated, brandishing a long knife, moving to Zuo Chen's approach, "I have to go back to the house and call people to support at all costs, otherwise our team of people is really over!" ”
