Chapter 493: Marionette

Chen Fusheng watched all this silently, and he gestured behind him with his backhand, signaling Gu Xing and the others not to act rashly.

From the moment of light of the dark path, everything in the city was exposed to this well-armed pursuer. It seems that their arrival will put an end to this chaotic war. These well-trained soldiers only pulled arrows along the way, but did not open any of the doors of the houses.

Maybe they're just cleaning up the rogues, and then they're going to clean up the mess and leave. But when they had finished clearing, they suddenly lined up on both sides, and from outside the city came the sound of horses' hooves rising on the high ground, trampling on the main stone-paved road. Chen Fusheng saw that the soldiers on both sides of the column raised their hands one after another, pressing their left hands diagonally upwards on their chests, looking ahead.

And the general who was riding on a tall horse, his whole body was covered by pitch-black armor, and only the scimitar hanging from the side of the horse seemed to reveal the identity of this person. The person who came was not the reinforcements of Longshou County, but the pursuers of Luoyang!

Chen Fusheng didn't know the identity of this group of soldiers, and he didn't dare to be sure until Gu Xing stepped forward to check. Gu Xing's heart was agitated, and he wanted to raise his hand several times, but was stopped by Chen Fusheng. Although Chen Fusheng didn't know why Gu Xing was like this, he knew that going out at this time was tantamount to falling into the mouth of a tiger.

Waiting for the general to walk by, Gu Xing let go of his fist and let out a long sigh. Chen Fusheng hurriedly asked, "But someone who knows each other?" ”

Gu Xing pulled his head and nodded, "This person is one of the 'Twelve Nights' of Mingyue Tower, the Green Snake." It's only been a few months, but I didn't expect that this person had already sought an official position in the army and led the troops out of the city. It seems that he must be going to Jincheng to help Nalan. ”

"If that's the case, then things won't be good. But he took the road here, and the direction was not Jincheng, but the head of the dragon, Luoyang Zhi was not here, but he wanted to take advantage of this place to establish his prestige, knock on the mountain and shock the tiger! Chen Fusheng peeled off what he had just seen, combined with what Gu Xing said, and told it eloquently.

But that curved blade alone is not enough to show identity, and it is unknown whether the face under the black robe is really a green snake. But what is certain in the immediate moment is that the comer is not good.

Monk Lichen shook off his tattered monk's robe, and suddenly sat down cross-legged, ignoring the argument between the two. Gu Xing and Chen Fusheng did not look back, but they reflexively retreated at the same time, retreating to the side of Monk Chen, and then stopped. Monk Lichen suddenly opened his eyes at this sound, and the six eyes of the three of them stared at the gate together, like six quenching secret weapons, not giving the enemy the slightest room to turn.

Only Tong Hatzhu closed his eyes, for some reason. She suddenly felt a chill hit her, and she shuddered along with the despair of the homeless people before they died.

The door was slammed open without warning, and the dust monk took the lead and struck at the intruder. The two well-trained soldiers fell in response, and were killed on the spot before they could even make a move. But as Chen Fusheng expected, those soldiers did not pour here. On the contrary, it was the man who rode the horse just now, and the horse came.

When the horse's hooves stepped into the door of the liquor store, an oppressive killing intent suddenly struck. Gu Xing fixed his killing intent and looked up, and saw those incomparably familiar eyes, which were flashing with a vicious light in the firelight. The person who came took off his head armor, drew his knife and dismounted in one go. It's just that this time is different from the past, and there is no Jia Hongdao or Ge Lao beside Gu Xing.

At this time, the strength of the green snake has skyrocketed, and it is no longer comparable to a few months ago. I don't know if I took some kind of drug to forcibly improve, or I made rapid progress under Nalan's guidance. Either way, it will bring catastrophe to the four people at this time.

Without superfluous words, the green snake had locked on Gu Xing, "Gu Xing? It's been a long time, but it seems that tonight is the time for me to have good luck. ”

As soon as the words fell, the scimitar danced a "flower" in the hand of the green snake and flew towards Gu Xing. Gu Xing took a step forward, and the "Silver Jiao" turned his back behind him, blocking it back the moment the scimitar flew in.

Chen Fusheng came to the door with lightning speed, and slammed the door shut, and the green snake was frightened by the fierce horse, raised his front hooves, and rushed out at the moment of closing the door. The green snake seemed to be reluctant to let the soldiers outside the door enter, and shouted loudly: "Control the 'snake horse', I will solve it here, and you will clean up the mess as soon as possible, and there must be no mistake." ”

Outside the door, the soldiers responded in unison, and the sound of footsteps faded away. Chen Fusheng blocked the gate and stared at him. And Gu Xing had already separated the northeast and southwest corners from the dust, trapping the green snake in it.

The green snake raised his hand to catch the scimitar that flew back, and sneered softly: "Gu Xing, this is your hospitality?" On the other day, they belong to the same door, and I will leave you a whole corpse. As for the others......" Before the last sentence was spoken, Lichen had already flashed up to meet him.

I saw that the sleeves of Monk Chen's robe were quickly closed, and his palms turned into fists, blasting towards the face of the green snake. I don't know if it was because the master of the art was bold, or because he relied on the soldiers in the city to suppress the formation, the green snake did not panic in the slightest, but his body retreated sharply and dodged the blow.

Chen Fusheng and Gu Xing shot at the same time, Gu Xing's "Silver Jiao" was divided into two, the tip of the spear struck the waist eye of the green snake, and the body of the gun shot towards Chen Fusheng. Chen Fusheng raised his hand to catch the body of the gun, and then pulled hard, and the dust had already jumped high at this time, and struck towards the green snake Tianling cover with one palm.

Just when the three of them thought they had succeeded, the green snake slipped under his feet, his body stagnated, and the bones around his body made a crisp sound, and he slipped out of the "silver jiao" entanglement. And the dust monk didn't expect this, and slammed his palm on the place where the green snake was standing just now, causing bursts of smoke and dust.

When the smoke and dust dissipated, the green snake that was originally in the horn was already on the side of Tong Hate Bamboo, and the curved blade was on Tong Hate Bamboo's neck, and a cold light burst out. Tong Hatzhu put his hands at his side and couldn't help trembling, while the green snake spit out his scarlet tongue and looked at the three of them with an arrogant face.

"Gu Xing, do you want to do it again?" Gu Xing was a little unsure, but Chen Fusheng quietly raised his hand and signaled him not to act rashly.

But the green snake seemed to have fallen into madness, and began to howl and said, "Gu Xing, do you know the torture I suffered when I failed my mission that day and was carried back to Mingyue Tower?" Have you ever tasted the pain of being devoured by worms? If I hadn't persevered, I would have been a corpse by now, and I don't know where to be fed to a mass grave. However, thanks to you, I have been able to survive until now, and I can finally take charge of the army alone, go to that rebellious place, and kill the rebels. It's just that I never expected to meet you here, it's really nowhere to find it, and it takes no effort to get there! ”

Gu Xing's face sank like water, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the blade of the scimitar, for fear that the green snake would cut Tong Hatzhu's throat "accidentally".

Before Gu Xing could speak, Monk Lichen first advised: "Donor, I don't know what kind of hatred you have between you and Gu Gongzi, but this child is innocent, please raise your hand......"

"Raise your hand, Master! Did I hear me right? I entered the door only a few moments, and the three of you attacked me, when did you leave a trace of affection? Now let me raise my noble hand, master, just because you are a member of the Buddhist sect? The green snake has fallen into extreme madness, I don't know if it is the sequelae of suffering from inhuman treatment, or the excitement that overflows with the thought of being able to cut off Gu Xing's head here.

Monk Lichen was about to speak, but was interrupted by Chen Fusheng raising his hand. Without any extra movements, Chen Fusheng kicked a stone towards the green snake with a little foot. The green snake laughed softly and pushed Tong Hatzhu up. saw that Gu Xing had already arrived together, snatched Tong Hate Bamboo, and used the "Silver Jiao" to block the fatal blow of the green snake.

Chen Fusheng's kick was just a feint, and the real killing move was still in Monk Chen. The monk wanted to persuade him, but he never thought that this person was crazy, so he no longer had any worries, put his arms behind him, jumped up, and came with his head hammered.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the green snake hurriedly turned around and retreated, jumped to the courtyard wall of the wine shop, and did not forget to mock, "You and the other four will die here!" After saying that, he whistled forward, and the group of well-trained soldiers began to kill one after another.

Gu Xing picked up Tong Hatzhu, and the four of them turned around and swept away. The green snake did not rush to pursue, but mounted his fierce horse again and walked in the direction of the city gate.

At this time, the garrison outside the city saw the fire in the city and the rain of arrows, and they had already retreated in their hearts. But the leader did not give the order to evacuate, and they had to continue to stay here. Finally, waiting for the city to ignite a fire, a general in a pitch-black robe stepped forward and shouted into the darkness: "Why don't you surrender quickly? ”

There was a commotion in the garrison, but no one spoke.

Seeing that this group of garrisons was stubborn, he raised his hand and immediately ordered: "Shoot them all, and leave no one behind." ”

Only then did the garrison here realize that the "yellow sparrow" that was originally going to be ambushed has now become a "praying mantis" that has no power to resist. The generals of the garrison hurriedly ordered to retreat, but it was too late, and when the first arrow fired, completely revealing their position, everything was already the end.

It seems that all this is in the hands of the green snake, and when he came, he already knew the information, and another small city rushed to the aid first, so he took this route, and wanted to kill all the ambush soldiers here. It was only when they came that the spies bumped into a group of rogues on the way, so they had a plan to delay the troops entering the city.

It's just that this rogue doesn't know, and the garrison doesn't know either, so he ended up like this. I didn't know that when the black smoke was ignited, all this was made public to the world. The green snake was ordered to sneak attack Longshou County, but it was just by the way. But he never thought that he could bump into his henchman Gu Xing by the way, which made him happy.

Now that most of the ambush soldiers have been shot, and the rest of the people are scattered and fleeing, he has no heart to pursue, turned his gun, and pointed in the direction of the four people in the city fleeing for their lives. At this time, the green snake is no longer reckless, but more like a general who marches and arranges the formation, and it seems that this identity is more in line with him.

But he didn't know that this was just a "idle chess" used by Li Cunqiao to contain Nalan. Among the soldiers he led, there was actually one person who held the power of marching and arranging, life and death. The green snake is just a "marionette", playing out a story that has been arranged by others......
