Chapter 213: Sharp Blade
"Don't run." Hou Qu directly raised the stick and hit it hard, stirring up a gust of wind. The man with the axe was instantly knocked to the ground.
Hou Qu then picked up the axe again, and with a quick flick of his hand, the axe spun and chopped off the flesh of the two barbarians and stabbed them into the ground.
Those three barbarians were finally eliminated. At this time they looked ahead, and there was a huge thing with hemp rope tied to it.
Liu Yichen looked closely, and it turned out to be a huge trebuchet, with many boulders thrown on one side, with hard edges and corners, and black sludge.
"It seems that these stones are the ones they are going to use to attack the city." Just as he was looking over there in distraction, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance.
Liu Yichen waved his hand, and they all knew that it was a large army coming. I drove my horse into the dense forest on one side, and there was a stream behind me.
King Ling was standing on it, looking around domineeringly. "From now on, you can only obey my orders!" Those barbarians applauded one after another.
It turned out to be him, and he recruited many barbarians from the barren mountains, as well as many homeless scoundrels, holding messy weapons and constantly dancing.
Liu Yichen looked over there, and there seemed to be thousands of people who had been newly recruited. "Looks like we can't wait, we have to go back quickly."
Together, they went to the back, wading across the stream, their feet damp with water. "Go over there, go around for a while, and you'll be back in town."
They returned to the city in the middle of the night. At this time, Ren Wang, with a large number of elite cavalry, ran over to greet them.
"Brother Huang, just now, there were many people in the city who made trouble, and they said nonsense, my lord, that you want to make a rebellion, so that the people of the city will starve to death."
Liu Yichen listened to his words and said with a smile. "How can we back down here, that is, all the soldiers, hold them down, don't let them rebel."
So saying, he took the soldiers and rushed into the city. It was noisy and chaotic inside, the ground was full of corpses, and the houses had collapsed.
The men shouted. "There will be no food to eat tomorrow!" With a knife in his hand, he stabbed the people from behind, under the cover of night.
The people were so frightened that they also turned into fleeing groups. Liu Yichen stabbed down a thief with a shot and threw it hard behind him.
"The imperial army is coming, don't panic." The rest of the soldiers also rushed in quickly, and the thieves ran out one by one.
The next morning, they distributed food to the poor people. According to some people, those thieves had already hid in King Ling's Mansion.
Liu Yichen followed their guidance and led the horse over. There were many footprints in it, and when they arrived at the door, they disappeared directly.
"It's just food, and it's running out of food now, so what should I do?" At this moment, a burly figure suddenly appeared on the wall, and an arrow shot over.
That person was King Ling, looking at Liu Yichen, he laughed wildly. "You thing, but dare to challenge me, dare to meet this king again?"
Liu Yichen hurriedly pulled the reins and headed towards the back. King Ling sneered. "This king has no other meaning, but just to clarify the matter and seek justice."
Those soldiers also hurriedly blocked the front. A thick wall of people was formed. and the archers on the wall, nervously confronted.
The bowstrings were pulled on both sides, and the sharp arrows were approaching the front, and the nerves were very tense, but no one dared to move, and they all stared at the opposite side.
Over there, King Ling, with a hideous face, smiled evilly. "Good brothers, they both belong to the dragon species, but this is the case, the emperor has a spirit, so he is also ashamed."
Liu Yichen looked at his face, it was so pale and terrifying. "It's just that this is so bright and clear, and I really can't bear it."
A cold wind blew and blew the bangs on his head. King Ling pointed at him and laughed wildly. "If you don't let go of the arrow, naturally I won't either."
Liu Yichen waved his hand back, and King Ling also waved back. Those with bows and crossbows stepped back together. King Ling stepped onto the city tower and shouted.
"Today, you and my brother, Fang is for grace and righteousness, it is you, why do you want to do this? Those people who are not whipped, how can they pay their taxes. ”
Looking at his resentful and somewhat puzzled eyes, Liu Yichen responded with a smile. "The world has its own royal law, and the people should not be abused like this."
The atmosphere on both sides was suddenly tense. Song Zhiyao looked at it from behind, her heart was beating nervously, and she almost fainted.
King Ling listened to his words and whistled disdainfully, "It's just that the Holy One, how to deal with this king is not up to you, hehe." ”
Liu Yichen took another step forward and stomped his foot. "Inherit the will of heaven and obey all the people, how can the affairs of this world be watched by you."
Listening to his words, Ling Wangqi's teeth trembled, and he pointed over there and scolded. "You thing, if you deserve to die, you will be reincarnated as a pig and dog, a beast."
At this time, the people below picked up their bows and arrows one after another, making a rattling sound. For a moment, the two sides looked at each other solemnly.
Song Zhiyao saw it in her eyes and was anxious. Ran over quickly, gently pulling the reins of the horse that flowed Yichen, and his face was as tender as water.
"Good husband, go back quickly!" Her beautiful eyes sparkled with loveliness. "If you do it again, you will die."
King Ling looked over there fiercely and laughed wildly. "Then Your Majesty's affairs, can you call the shots? If so, it is also a joke. ”
Liu Yichen took a step back and said solemnly. "Holy grace is unpredictable, these things have nothing to do with you, but you just have to follow your will and be punished."
Listening to his words, a wave of fear surged into King Ling's heart. "Even when I get to the capital, I don't necessarily think about what happens to me, and I can't imagine how miserable it is."
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. His temples swelled, and he strained his hands. With a click, the shaft of the arrow and the arrow snapped together.
It's just that he was still not convinced, and said with his lips curled. "The things of the world are nothing more than the four words of the beauties of the country, this little girl is really interesting."
Song Zhiyao ignored him, jumped up with a sturdy body, and hugged Liu Yichen. "Xianggong, that person will definitely not be so sincere."
Suddenly, a dart flew towards her. It turned out that the thing was a curved shape, bringing up a gust of cold wind, and it was forced towards Song Zhiyao.
She subconsciously hugged her head, and the dart brushed off, shaving off a few hairs. King Ling's hand turned, and the dart went straight back to his hand.
It turned out to be the hairpin, hanging on it. Liu Yichen hugged Song Zhiyao and comforted. "Good Yao'er, don't cry, there's nothing to be afraid of."
King Ling held the hairpin in his hand, thoughtful. "It's a pity that such a beautiful girl is obsessed and doesn't know what to do."
Song Zhiyao was so frightened that she couldn't do it, cold sweat flowed from her head, but she shouted with her mouth closed. "You bad lord, what else is there to say?"
A gust of wind blew, covering both sides. King Ling took the hairpin, broke it into several petals, and stepped on the ground with one foot, making a loud noise.
He squinted his eyes and read poetry. "I don't know why I'm too anxious, I just say that people's hearts are unpredictable, whoever is a dragon and who is disobedient is a sword and a soldier."
A rain, booming down. It made them all wet. "Behold, the hour has come, and the great rain of heaven and earth will drown everything."
King Ling waved his hand resolutely, and the bow and arrows over there flew as fast as rain. The soldiers below, blocked by armor and crossbows, fought back.
Before Song Zhiyao could react, she was held by Liu Yichen with her arm stretched out and grabbed her hard. "Yao'er, don't be afraid, we'll go back right away."
Song Zhiyao felt a clammy chill all over her body, and her body continued to tremble. Liu Yichen waved his spear in his other hand, blocking the arrows that came from there.
Suddenly, there was a thunderclap, and a flash of lightning struck. In front of the door, a fireball appeared, and it exploded in an instant. King Ling laughed loudly.
"Such shameless people will be struck by lightning." Those family members, listening to his words, one by one, kept screaming more vigorously.
Liu Yichen and them quickly hid back. The armor on Liu Yichen's body was full of sharp arrows, and it was easy to pull it off.
Song Zhiyao looked at him, and was also scarred by the arrow. Guilt in my heart. "Xianggong, if it weren't for me, I wouldn't have suffered this sin."
Liu Yichen looked at her lovely face and smiled slightly. The slender arm wrapped around her neck and stroked her gently. Love her delicate skin.
"Good Yao'er, no matter how many things are, it has nothing to do with you, so you can sleep." With his other hand, he covered the silk quilt and pressed it hard.
Song Zhiyao looked at the neat silk quilt over there, exuding a burst of incense. "Xianggong, if in the next life, I only want to be a cow and a horse."
Her eyes were so excited that she even burst into tears. Liu Yichen smiled, stroked her hair, and said slowly.
"Yao'er, what the ancients said is good, you don't know how to live and die? It's just that in this life, you and I are destined, so we stay together, like wild geese and mandarin ducks, and never leave. ”
She looked at Liu Yichen's back and fell asleep peacefully. I don't know why, in her mind, she suddenly remembered Si Baihong's matter again.
"He has also suffered for me for a long time." Song Zhiyao snickered in the bed. "I don't know how he has come so far, and he still misses him a little."
The thought that came to her mind made her feel ashamed. "It's ridiculous, I didn't expect such a thing to become like this."
Thinking about it for a moment, she fell softly to sleep. Liu Yichen looked at the sky after the rain, which was exceptionally clear and refreshing, and he was not in the mood.
"Your Excellency." At this time, Ren Wang quietly walked over. "It's the army's food, it's not enough to eat, they seem to have bought a lot of mercenaries."
Liu Yichen turned his head and looked at him seriously. "That's it, he is killing himself, and the charges of the court are confirmed, so there is no way out."
Ren Wang scratched his head and tugged at the bun on his head. "It's just like this, there are many people in the county town next to him who support him, and they also come along."
Hearing this, Liu Yichen was suddenly shocked in his heart. "How so? He is a rebel, how can those people be thieves? ”
The current situation in the imperial court is already very delicate. If it's because of this, something happens. Chaos, that will inevitably stir up a storm and waves.
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. "Let's go back first, tomorrow we will go out to explore the way, it shouldn't be like this."
Ren Wang thought in his heart, it seemed that Liu Yichen had no good way, and said with relief. "That's it, there's nothing to be afraid of, as soon as Tianwei arrives, I can't help but admire."
After saying that, he walked directly back to the tent and rested. Liu Yichen looked into the distance for a long time in a daze, and suddenly heard the sound of salad.
"Could it be a mouse?" As soon as he turned around, he saw a shadow that seemed to be holding a sharp handful of things in his hand, heading towards the back of the tent.
Liu Yichen stared over there, and the figure stabbed towards the tent on the side. "It's really an assassin, it seems that King Ling has sent someone over again."
Thinking of the tent and his beloved Yao'er, his heart instantly burst into flames. "What do you want to do, you dog assassin? Get out of the way. ”
Several guards over there, armed with sharp spears, rushed over fiercely together. In the cold moonlight, the assassin did stare at them.
"When it comes to it, it's really fate." He threw five darts in his hand, glowing green, and threw them at them together.
The guards on both sides were stabbed one after another, and with a pop of mouth and blood spitting out, they did not move. Liu Yichen forged ahead with all his strength and stabbed it with a sword.
This sword directly stabbed into the gap, instantly cutting off the assassin's thigh. The remaining guards stabbed hard with their spears.
