Three watches in the middle of the night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In a large hall next to the altar.
At this time, Yingji was sitting on top of a meadow, closing his eyes and recuperating, and his front was the "ancestors and ancestors" of the Qin State.
Next to him, the Qin State Sacrifice Wine Lord and the two courtiers who were in charge of the etiquette also sat behind Yingji, although it was already the middle of the night, but the three of them were still full of energy, focused, solemn and solemn, and they didn't look sleepy at all.
In such a large hall, there were more than thirty armor soldiers standing densely outside, walking back and forth, and it seemed that it was heavily guarded.
In a deep pit in front of the main hall, Su Ming rubbed the Lique Sword in his hand and sat quietly. Su Ming raised his head by the light of the fire in the main hall, and could vaguely see the armor soldiers hiding in other places.
To be honest, Su Ming has been worrying in his heart, and he hasn't slept well for three days in a row, although he is very sleepy, he doesn't dare to close his eyes at all. Obviously, the person behind Yingyue also seems to know the truth of one blow, then decline, and three exhaustions.
On the first night, Su Ming had already arranged everything, divided the hundred people into ten shares, and alternated light and dark, lurking day and night, laying a big net, but after waiting all night, those assassins did not appear.
Su Ming knew that this time, this was their last chance, and he had a gut feeling that they would definitely appear.
According to the principle of one go, if the first night does not come, the second night will not come. On the second night, Su Ming sent out twenty people, as scouts, and the rest were to eat and sleep well, and nourish their spirits, so that nothing would go wrong now.
Right now, this is the last night, and they will definitely come, because after this night, Yingji will return to Xianyang, and when they return to Xianyang, they will enter the palace as king, so they will never have a chance again.
This night, Su Ming waited for a long time.
Sou!
Suddenly, a sound sounded, like something flying past my ears.
It's not good, it's the sound of a crossbow.
Then there was another sound, a thud, like the sound of a bowstring flicking.
Not good, it's coming, and it's already very close.
Su Ming was shocked, why didn't the scouts he sent out respond?
While!
Suddenly, as soon as the golden gong sounded, the whole pine forest suddenly lit up, and the fire soared into the sky, like day.
When the defenders at the foot of the mountain saw this, they could also guess what was going on, and they urgently prepared for it, and the whole army rushed up.
The disciples of the Yue Kingdom Sword Furnace on the other side also immediately moved and rushed towards the altar.
In the hut where Yingji was, the door was slammed shut, and twenty armor soldiers guarded it, guarding Yingji's group, and the arrows reached the wall, and they could no longer enter.
Su Ming saw these through the big tent, yes, everything was going according to his own plan, and now the assassins who were just waiting for him approached and had a fight.
At this time, the sound of the bow and crossbow was still heard in the ears, coming from the surrounding pine forest, and only the sound of the bow and crossbow could not be heard. This kind of thing as a bow and crossbow is very difficult to make, this is not something that ordinary workshops can make, thinking of this, Su Ming was slightly surprised, but now he can't take care of it so much.
Fortunately, there were preparations for a long time, all the armor soldiers were hidden, and no one could come out without Su Ming's order, and the damage of this bow and crossbow was not very great.
The Assassins also knew that the defenders were at the bottom of the mountain, and there was no time to delay, and finally, they came out.
Faintly, the shadows of the Assassins could be seen in the pine forest, and gradually, like ghosts, these people suddenly appeared.
Su Ming looked around and found that there were no less than a hundred of these people from the beginning of one or two, and after only a few breaths, and they were still constantly moving out, which was not at all as expected.
Soon, Su Ming found that there were three or four hundred people coming out of the pine forest.
These Assassins were highly trained, and their steps were fast, yet light. In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed to the front.
Su Ming looked back at the hall where Yingji was, put the Lique Sword on his back, and then pulled out a long sword from the side and raised it high. Assassin, he is already fighting for his life, although he is good from the sword, but the blade is still a little worse, not enough to kill!
The golden gong sounded again, and the armor soldiers brought by Su Ming did not show timidity, and rushed forward with the long sword in their hands.
The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.
The armor soldiers in front had already exchanged hands with the assassins, and they could only hear the sound of clanging and stabbing the long sword on the body, and by the light of the fire, they could see blood splashing everywhere, with stumps and broken arms, and they were thrown high in the crowd, Su Ming saw it for the first time, and he was a little disgusted and retched.
The two soldiers wanted to pick it up, but the white horse passed through the gap, and there were already many corpses on the ground.
The assassins, a little stunned, obviously did not expect that they had been tricked, and after hesitating for a moment, they rushed forward again. This did not affect their morale, on the contrary, they had the courage to face death as if they were home.
The armor soldiers led by Su Ming, although their bravery was abnormal, but the number of the opponent was more than three times that of their side, and they were invincible with two fists and four hands, and at this moment, they were retreating.
The effort of this meeting has already retreated to the front of the main hall, and there are many casualties.
Su Ming's face was covered with blood, he didn't have the time to be sentimental here, he was very anxious. I have been preparing for a long time, but in the end, I will still underestimate the other party.
Just look at the disciples of the Sword Furnace, can you really use one as ten, but now even one is not enough.
Su Ming only walked for a while, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, he didn't know when, a Wu hook with a chill in the night was already coming towards his neck.
Steady and horizontal!
Su Ming was frightened, and a little cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He didn't care who it was, so he instinctively raised the long sword in his hand.
Jingling.
The long sword was against Wu Hook, and Su Ming was able to block this move.
With such a great strength, Su Ming's arm was slightly numb from the shock, if it weren't for his strong body, it is estimated that this sword would have come out of his hand.
Taking this opportunity, Su Ming saw the assassin's eyes, coldly towards him, it was obvious that he was coming for him.
Before Su Ming could react, a sharp pain in his abdomen followed, and the inside of his body was like a river and a sea, and there was a suffocating feeling.
Looking at it again, Su Mingren had already flown out and lay on the ground, with a lot of dust splashed in his mouth.
This kick kicked Su Ming to a big game, and Su Ming knew that he was not his opponent and could not be beaten.
Seeing this, the assassin adhered to the principle of beating the water dog, and took a few big steps, and Wu Hook once again aimed at Su Ming's neck, this time cutting horizontally.
It's fast!
If you get hit, you will definitely die.
Thinking of this, Su Ming kicked his legs hard and rolled backwards directly, and escaped death again.
Suddenly, Su Ming coughed violently for a while, and fell to the ground, bright red, coughing up blood.
Su Ming knew that it was not a way to go on like this.
Sure enough, the assassins are in hot pursuit, and they want your life.
"Die!"
The assassin roared, and when Su Ming heard it, he was terrified, no matter who he was, he didn't want to die. What's more, Su Ming felt that he had just begun to live and couldn't die.
