Chapter 173: Anti
"Huh?"
The autumn equinox trembled, the clothes he was holding fell to the ground, Xu You bent down to pick it up, his expression remained unchanged, he looked very calm, patted the head of the autumn equinox, and said, "Don't panic, the sky can't fall!" He turned to Zuo Yan and said, "Have you found out?" ”
"No, I heard movement, but I went to the north gate to take a look. There are no stars and no moon tonight, and it is dark and oppressive outside, and it is not real, there are about a dozen people in front of the city gate, but I don't know how many people are ambushed in secret. Some people shouted that they were victims of the disaster who had fled from Jinling County and wanted to go into the city to beg for work. However, the person who shouted was full of energy, and he should have cultivated himself, and he was by no means a disaster victim. ”
"What will be the reaction of the land?"
"The gatekeeper of the city has sent soldiers to the county government to inform the Lu Hui, and if he were not a fool, he would not have opened the door to let these people in. It's just that I'm worried about ......"
"Worried about what?"
"These people come here with great fanfare, and they won't be helpless just because Lu Hui doesn't open the door, and they will obediently stay in the city for one night, there must be another way to seize the door."
Xu You frowned for a while, and his heart suddenly beat violently, because he remembered a sentence he had heard from Du Sanxing's mouth: Liu Yan sent two beautiful maids to Lu Hui to warm the bed and play with lewdness, and usually showed up in and out of the county office, which was known to many officials. After all, Qiantang City is not a big city, there has been no war for many years, and the access control has long been lax, if they pretend to hold the warrant of the Lu Society, it is enough to make it effortless to let the gatekeeper open the door and release people.
He said solemnly: "Autumn equinox, quickly go and gather all the tribes in the palace to gather in the courtyard." Fenghu, you tell Shanzong, the situation is urgent, let him go to the north gate immediately, if he encounters someone from the county government who asks to open the door with a warrant from the Lu Society, he will take it down, and if necessary, he can kill him to control the situation! Also, tell the winter solstice that no matter what it takes, I want to know immediately what's going on outside the city! ”
After a while, with the hiss of knowing, Xu You appeared in front of everyone in a black uniform, he has always worn a robe and crown belt, rarely dressed like a martial artist, his body is slender as a pine, and he looks heroic. In the courtyard, a group of people were pulled out of the warm quilt, and they didn't know what was going on, staring at Xu You with big eyes, looking at Xu You and looking at each other.
"I just received news that Qiantang City was surrounded by gangsters, and the intention is unknown, but it must harbor evil intentions. Just in case, from now on, I want you to be in good spirits. Wu Shan, you quickly go and inform Du Sanxing, ask him to organize the guards, prepare for the emergency, and then rush back as soon as possible. Fang Sinian, you take ten people, gather women and children in one place, and protect them tightly. Li Mu, you take ten people to guard the front gate, and Yan Yang takes ten people to guard the back door. In the firmament, you take eight people with me, sit here, and support everywhere at any time. ”
"Wait for my orders!"
Xu Youjun's eyes gave birth to a cold light, and he said, "The knife is out of the sheath!" ”
Boom, boom, boom!
Dozens of long knives came out of their sheaths in response, and the cold current that gathered directly washed away the boredom and heat of the summer night, and even the cicadas who knew that they kept screaming were also frightened and silenced.
"Tonight, prepare to kill!"
However, the Mountain Sect still came late!
After receiving the order, he immediately left the Jingyuan, and sneaked all the way to the north gate, just in time to see two maidservants-like people talking to the gatekeeper, and after a few words, the doorman ordered his soldiers to go and open the gate. At the critical moment, Shan Zong didn't have time to think about it, flashed out of the shadows, and shouted: "Don't open the city, it's full of thieves outside......"
Before the words fell, a strong wind struck from the rear like lightning, extremely vicious and vicious, like left and right, up and down, making people unpredictable where the attack would fall.
This is a master!
The mountain sect didn't look back, the true qi was instantly poured into the palm of the hand, and the short knife slashed back with a decisive mountain splitting momentum.
Since he became a pirate, he has walked on the brink of death many times, and has long honed the art of adapting to distress. This knife cannot be hesitated, let alone retain strength, and must fight for his life, otherwise, he will fall into the enemy's calculations, and he will fall into the wind with one move, and there is no room to turn over.
Bang!
Fires are flying!
Shan Zong's chest was suffocated, and he almost wanted to vomit blood. His martial arts are more subtle and clever, and it is not the best strategy to hit hard, but with the power of this blow, his body rushed forward seven feet, and finally got out of the man's qi traction, and his toes were on the low earthen wall next to the street, and a harrier turned over and rose into the air.
Condescending, attacking and defending, he is confident that within ten moves, solve the battle!
Flutter!
A small hole was drilled in the earthen wall, and Shan Zong saw that the attack on him was a chain gun several meters long, and the head of the spear was tied with a red tassel. The man who made the spear hid in the night, and before he had time to take a closer look, the soft chain that was wilting on the ground suddenly bounced straight up, like an iron rod swept towards the mountain whip in the air.
Before the chain arrived, the wind was heard first, and the cold energy covered the breath of the mouth and nose, as if the sharp blade had stabbed his eyes. Shan Zong made thousands of calculations, but he didn't count the other party's such a remote weapon, he was in the air, and he had nowhere to borrow his strength, so he had to scream strangely, and once again hit it hard, and the short knife slashed through the thick night, slashing from above.
Bang, bang, bang!
Tie, wrap, belt, draw, dance, pull, split, sweep, wrap, take, cloud, pendulum, the man's chain gun made a superb, twelve moves in a row, such as mercury pouring on the ground, without any flaws, forcing the mountain sect to split twelve knives in the air, but could not find a place to stay, and he was still too busy to take care of himself, and he had no energy to distract from the movement of the city gate.
The gatekeeper guarding the city is not a fool, opening the door late at night has violated the curfew, not to mention that there are so many victims gathered outside, so because of Lu Hui's warrant, plus these two maidservants, they all know that they are Lu Hui's favorite concubines, so they obey orders. Now there is a warning from the Mountain Sect, although it is a little weird, but everything is comprehensive, and caution is the best.
"Wait, don't ...... yet"
The word "door" has not yet been spoken, his waist is numb, and the doorman falls softly into the arms of the maidservant, and at first glance, it seems to be whispering in his ear. Another maid said sharply: "The Ming Mansion warrant is here, why don't you go and open the door quickly?" If you make a mistake, you are the only one who asks! ”
These lowly soldiers have no knowledge, let alone quick wisdom, and Qiantang is in the hinterland of Yangzhou, there has been no turmoil for decades, where did I think that someone would dare to cheat the city, the eight people in the past who were confused, worked together to lift down the thick door latch and horizontal wood, and the squeaky heavy city gate slowly opened, through the door hole, the dark outside of the city, like a monster with a big mouth open, can swallow the entire Qiantang City into the belly at any time.
More than a dozen people walked in in tattered clothes, and the maid who held the doorman hostage suddenly stabbed into the doorman's heart, and blood flashed, splashing her in colorful clothes, like an asura coming out of hell.
"Do it!"
Without waiting for the soldiers in the door to react, they fell to the ground with stabs in the chest and abdomen, and before they even had time to make a sound, they all went down to the Yellow Spring and became nameless ghosts who died unjustly.
"Ignition!"
Sesame oil poured on the pyre, the north gate city wall lit two fires, ten miles can be seen, faintly heard from the outside of countless people's hideous shouts, the mountain sect can not do anything, and if it is delayed, I am afraid that the life is not guaranteed, more than a dozen iron eggs are spilled in the hand, and a knife is slashed at the tip of the gun, a few volleys are upside down, falling on the ridge, between the ups and downs, and disappearing into the alley.
By the time Xu You received the report from the Mountain Sect, the entire northern city had fallen into chaos, and when he climbed the rockery of Jingyuan, he could see the smoke billowing and the burning houses.
"Jun Xun, except for the two maidservants who were given to Lu Hui by Liu Yan, I seem to have seen that among the first batch of thieves to enter the city, there is one who seems to be Tang Zhiyi's subordinate."
"Tang Zhiyi ......"
Xu You hadn't heard this name for a long time, or since the Buddha Bathing Festival, Liu Yan has almost disappeared from his field of vision, and now that he thinks about it, he is still too careless.
Wu Shan also hurriedly came back from the Du San Provincial Mansion, he didn't see anyone, and he heard that the Lu Hui had a banquet tonight, and Li Dingzhi, Du San Province and others were all drunk and stayed in the county office.
"Banquet guests? Why Feast? ”
"It seems that Liu Yan got a new ancient jade and dedicated it to Lu Hui, so Lu Hui set up a banquet and invited all the officials in the county government to accompany him."
Xu You and He Wei looked at each other for a moment, and Xu You sighed: "Good calculation! ”
He Wei immediately made a decision and said, "Go from the west gate, and we will go out of the city immediately!" ”
Shan Zong asked, "Why do you go to the West Gate?" Wouldn't it be better for the thieves to come from the north, and for us to withdraw from the south gate? Or go east by water......"
"Since ancient times, how can there be a reason to attack only one gate? Thieves come from the north, and people will subconsciously run south, which is just a dead end, waiting for the fool to fall into the net. The east water wharf, vertical and horizontal, if not sealed, the thieves can only get an empty city, if my expectations are good, there must have been a warship to block the water gate, to go there is also a death. Only outside the west gate is a mountain, rugged and difficult to travel, it is not easy to escape, even if the thieves have deployment, they will not arrange too many manpower. ”
Shanzong was not annoyed when he was ridiculed as a fool, because he knew that He Wei was the temperament of this poisonous tongue, and he really admired his wisdom in his heart, and said: "Listen to Lang Jun, let's leave from Ximen!" ”
"Its wings say that the thieves have warships? Isn't it similar to the fighting ships of the navy? Zuo Yan said: "But where did they get the warship?" ”
Xu You interjected: "Don't forget, Dark Yao went to Fusang with Chen Chan, and he rode the golden-winged green dragon of the navy, and he can get a fake death Heavenly Master Daoxia Sacrificial Wine, not to mention Du Mingyu, the Yangzhou Sacrificial Wine!" ”
Zuo Yan was silent for a moment and said, "Heavenly Master Dao...... Is it really the other way around? ”
Xu You, He Wei, Shan Zong and the others were all silent, combined with all the signs tonight, the Heavenly Master Dao should be about to rebel. But there is no reason for this, even if he is forced by Buddhism step by step, and he is about to leave by An Zidao, but Sun Guan pressed the treasure on the prince, and before the matter is broken, choosing to rebel now is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg and seeking his own death.
At this time, Dong Solstice quickly ran into the courtyard and came to Xu You, with a panicked expression and a pale face, and said: "My people sent news that someone in the city deliberately set fire to the house and create chaos, and there are also rangers who took the opportunity to rob the house, * woman. Now the situation is out of control, the north gate is lost, about hundreds of thieves are going straight to the city, there are big boats cruising outside the water gate, patrolling the periphery, there is a dead silence outside the south gate, suspected of fraud, we must immediately go out of the city from the west gate, can go to the Mingyu Mountain to take refuge for the time being......"
She held the intelligence network in her hand, and the conclusions she came to were no different from what He Wei had speculated out of thin air just now. And the facts are all there, Liu Yan is Du Mingyu's person, there is no doubt that tonight he first controlled Lu Hui, Du San Province and other officials in the county office, and then sent the maid placed next to Lu Hui to deceive the city gate. Then kill people and seize the road, set fire to the city, how is it different from rebellion?
"It's useless to think too much, we must get out of here now, and then decide what to do next when it's safe." Xu You stood up, walked to the front of the dark man, his voice was gentle and low, and said: "Tonight is extremely dangerous, we have old and young, men and women here, and we may not all be able to get out alive." Follow us, but it will drag you down, Wind Tiger, untie his ban! ”
Zuo Yan bent his fingers and clicked on a few points under his abdomen, and the long-lost flow of true qi spread back to the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, and secretly moved his hands and feet, looked at Xu You, and said lightly: "You let me go?" ”
"Let's go, if I'm lucky enough to escape this catastrophe...... Xu You paused and said with a smile: "You are welcome to seek revenge again!" ”
Darkly stretched out his hand and pulled out the long knife on Xu You's waist, the whole process was extremely slow, but Xu You didn't move, Zuo Yan didn't move, the autumn equinox was a little worried, but it made the winter solstice stop.
The tip of the knife pointed to the ground, the dark eyebrows and eyes were lowered, and he said word by word: "Tonight, where you are, I will be there!" ”
