Chapter 45: Heavy losses
But retreating was faster than a frontal impact, and just less than three steps back, the long sword in Qi Xiaotan's hand was already on Shen Chongming's chest.
A sneer appeared on Qi Xiaotan's face, and with a fierce force in his hand, the long sword stabbed into Shen Chongming's shirt fiercely.
"Brother Shen!" "Your Excellency!" With a few exclamations, Shen Chongming, who seemed to have been hit in the chest, rose into the air and fell backwards fiercely.
Among all the people, only Qi Xiaotan felt that something was wrong, and when he stabbed down with a sword, he didn't feel like he was in the flesh at all! I didn't have time to think about it, I jumped up and stabbed at Shen Chongming who fell to the ground again, this time it was the eyes, even if I practiced the golden bell jar, it was impossible to practice to this kind of place!
At the moment when he fell to the ground, the two firearms in Shen Chongming's hands had already been raised, but unfortunately although there were many torches nearby, it was impossible for others to see clearly what was in his hand when a person fell to the ground.
So, Qi Xiaotan, the fourth-ranked man of the Eight Great King Kongs of the Wuwei Sect, changed direction and flew again without waiting for his body to fall under two loud bangs, like a kite with a broken string twitching a few times in the air and falling heavily to the ground.
Two accidents in a row suddenly made everyone stand there. Looking at Qi Xiaotan who fell to the ground motionless, the fool also knew that this guy was completely planted this time, Xiao Xuefeng, **, Bu Qingyun and the three of them shook their throats at the same time, and they all jumped backwards in unison, and ran towards the gate to slip away.
As soon as they moved, Liu Shouyou, who looked at Shen Chongming staggering and standing up, also reacted, and chased after him with a loud shout. At this time, the captains in brocade clothes armed with bows and arrows also arrived, and without commanding, they drew their bows and shot arrows at the three fleeing people.
There were many arrows, and it was difficult to dodge the three of them with strong martial arts, and Serangjun was the first to let out a miserable scream, and an arrow was firmly inserted into his hip.
Fortunately, Bu Qingyun has always been next to him, and when he saw Selangjun rushing forward with an arrow, he pulled him with a force at his feet, which saved his life. Otherwise, once he falls to the ground, the captain of the brocade clothes who arrives later can divide his body with a knife.
However, Xiao Xuefeng didn't have such good luck, because he was entangled with Liu Shouyou, he was the farthest away from the gate, and most of the arrows that came greeted him.
There was only one blade in his hand, and he was overstretched on the left and right, and he was caught off guard by an arrow in his knee, and fell to the ground with a muffled snort. At this moment, Liu Shouyou also chased after him, and slashed his head with a loud shout! Xiao Xuefeng was startled, and hurriedly raised his knife to resist, his eyes full of fear.
"Bell!" Sparks flew from the blade handover. With the help of momentum, Liu Shou's knife was extremely powerful, and Xiao Xuefeng, who hurriedly raised his knife to resist, only felt that his arms sank, and his blade came towards his head.
It can be regarded as a quick reaction, and on the side of his head, the blade smashed on his shoulder. It's a pity that this blade is a sword, and the blade of the sword scrapes through the clothes and flesh for three points.
Without waiting for Xiao Xuefeng to scream, Liu Shouyi flipped over the treasure knife in his hand, and the sharp blade slashed through Xiao Xuefeng's throat.
Liu Shouyou's hand was clean and neat, and when Bu Qingyun turned his head to check how Xiao Xuefeng was, all that fell into his eyes was the blood that came out of his neck!
"Hall Master Xiao!" Bu Qingyun was dumbfounded, turned around and went back, but was pulled by Serangjun, "Hurry up!" ”
"Alas!" Bu Qingyun was reluctant, but seeing Xiao Xuefeng fall to the ground, he also knew that the person was finished, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and rushed towards the gate with a faster pace, and there was already a shout of killing over there, and Roy did it.
The speed of the two was not slow, and Serang Jun was on guard, running left and right erratically, and the arrows were all dodged by them.
In a blink of an eye, there were only more than ten Jinyi guards in front of the door, and at this time they were all put to the ground by Na Roy with people, and when they saw that only two people appeared, there were Jinyi guards behind them, and Roy couldn't help but be surprised, something was wrong!
Throwing Serangjun to Na Roy, Bu Qingyun shouted: "Hurry up!" "Anyway, he turned around and blocked the door with a horizontal sword, and the Jinyi guard chased too closely, if he didn't block them, none of these people would be able to escape today!
That Roy was taken aback, "Old Seven! "The Eight King Kongs are ranked seventh, Na Roy is sixth, and Serangjun is the oldest, although everyone often has some contradictions, but when it comes to life and death, that is brother and sister!
"Seventh brother!" Serangjun was also startled, and turned around to go back to pull him, but he didn't expect to be pulled by Na Roy. Tears poured down, looking at Bu Qingyun, who was already fighting with Jinyiwei, he grabbed Selangjun and ran.
Bu Qingyun, who carried a group of brocade guards with his own strength, and more than ten knives in his body finally fell to the ground, and every time his body twitched, a large mouthful of blood gushed out.
Shen Chongming, who chased out of the yamen, looked at the night that had returned to calm again, waved his hand angrily and turned back, there were too many places to hide in the middle of the night, and he couldn't catch up at all.
Seeing that Bu Qingyun, whose flesh and blood were blurred under his feet, was still moving, his brows furrowed, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart, "Erdan, give him a good time!" ”
Ma Erdan, who was following closely behind, nodded, drew his dagger and squatted down, "Brother, I'm sorry." As he spoke, a knife was inserted into Bu Qingyun's heart.
In a big battle, Liu Shouyou also suffered a few blows, and after abolishing Xiao Xuefeng, he fell behind and didn't do it again, and he also saw the scene of Bu Qingyun blocking the doorway, and he inevitably had a little admiration in his heart, he was a man.
"Brother, what the hell is going on with you?" Looking at Shen Chongming, Liu Shouyou couldn't help but ask, obviously looking at a sword in the chest, why didn't this kid have anything to do?
When he asked him this, Shen Chongming felt a pain in his chest, and when he untied his coat, the golden silk soft armor was revealed. Although this thing is invulnerable, it is not completely immune to physical attacks, although the sword did not hurt the flesh and skin, but the force was all released in the chest, and it hurt terribly.
"It's ...... Golden Silk Soft Armor?! "Liu Shou is well-informed, although he has never seen the golden silk soft armor, he has heard of its name, and he didn't say that it is an absolutely good thing.
"Yes, if it weren't for this thing, I'm afraid that the little brother's life would be explained today." Thinking of the scene just now, Shen Chongming had palpitations, and he was ashamed that he had been wearing this thing on his body since he got it.
"Tsk, tell me quickly, where did you get this thing?" Liu Shouyou couldn't help but be interested, if he also had one, how good it would be, then he would be able to compete with Dongchang Lei Leopard.
Looking at his coveted look, Shen Chongming hurriedly tightened his clothes, "This is a very commemorative trophy that the junior brother seized from Zeng Yiyi. ”
Liu Shouyou smiled and was seen by this kid.
After the battle, it was quickly counted that no less than 50 Jinyi guards were killed and wounded, and the losses were heavy. However, Wuwei Sect is not much better, according to their names for each other, the identities of two of them can be deduced, one is Xiao Xuefeng, the master of the Law Enforcement Hall, and the other is Bu Qingyun, who is ranked seventh in the Eight King Kongs, although the other person does not know who it is, but if he can mix together, he must also be a person in the Eight King Kongs.
In general, the results are quite rich, this is the three people with the highest status in the Wuwei Sect this time, one of the four hall masters, and the second of the eight King Kongs, which is enough for the Wuwei Sect to feel distressed for a while.
"Rice bucket, damn it!" Zhao Wenyi, the sect leader who received the news, was really distressed, and the losses of the branch altars in various places were heavy enough, but he didn't expect to get into three important people in the sect when he came. Counting with his fingers, there are only twelve people in the four hall masters plus the eight King Kongs, and this time they will fold into three, which is definitely a big loss.
"The father-in-law is angry, and the daughter is willing to go and assassinate Shen Chongming to avenge several brothers." Zhao Ziqian got up and said.
Looking at this daughter who was almost picked up, Zhao Wenyi's anger in his heart dissipated a lot. For the sake of safety, the family is not around, and she is this girl who rubs her shoulders and backs with tea and water on weekdays, but she is a rare good child.
"Ziqian, the master of Jinyi Wei is like a cloud, Xiao Xuefeng has been planted in it, you just lost your life if you go. Let's stay by my father's side. ”
"Father-in-law, my daughter knows that Shen Chongming, so you can start with him." Zhao Ziqian suddenly said something shocking, not only Zhao Wenyi was cold, but Cai Wenyuan and Zheng Shanchuan were also stunned.
Originally, Cai Wenyuan always felt that Shen Chongming's three words had some impressions, but unfortunately he never remembered where he had heard of it, and when Zhao Ziqian said it, he immediately remembered it, isn't it the small household official who broke his own affairs in Hangzhou back then!
"Alas, a mistake!" Cai Wenyuan patted his leg full of self-reproach, got up and said: "Sect Master, my subordinates remembered who this Shen Chongming was, this person was the small household official who broke his subordinate plan in Hangzhou back then, but I never expected that he would be promoted to the commander of Jinyiwei in just a few years." Saying this, Cai Wenyuan didn't notice that a trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of Zhao Ziqian, who was standing aside.
"I see. Hmph, it seems that this Shen Chongming exists because he can't teach me Wuwei, and this person can't be left. Zhao Wenyi said angrily, fortunately, Zhao Ziqian did not save the life of Emperor Longqing in the Royal Hunting Garden in the capital at the beginning of the year, and it was also Shen Chongming, otherwise Zhao Wenyi would have to personally go out to kill him.
"Sect Master, rest assured, these days, his subordinates have already had some understanding of Shen Chongming, and they have also thought of tricks to deal with him, ensuring that he will die without a place to be buried!" Cai Wenyuan said with a ruthless face.
"Oh, what's the solution." Cai Wenyuan was a member of the Wuwei Sect back then, and had a very personal relationship with Zhao Wenyi, and when he was young, he was ordered to participate in the imperial examination and enter the officialdom, so he also laid a nail in the imperial court in Wuweijiao.
It's a pity that there are very few officials with such luck as Shen Chongming in the Ming Dynasty, who have worked hard in the officialdom for more than ten years.
But after a long time in the officialdom, he has felt the Tao in it clearly, it is too simple to kill a person, as long as he blows the wind on his opponent, it is definitely enough for him to drink a pot. And Shen Chongming's opponent is Xu Jie, the head of the cabinet who leans towards the government and the opposition. In Cai Wenyuan's opinion, as long as Xu Jie feels that Shen Chongming threatens his status, then Shen Chongming is a dead end, and no matter how bad it is, he has to go home and farm.
As soon as he talked about his plans, Zhao Wenyi couldn't help but nod and smiled: "The Dharma protector has a good strategy, so do as you say." ”
"Yes." Cai Wenyuan hurriedly responded, and then proposed: "However, in order to be foolproof, my subordinates suggest that the Holy Maiden also make a move, and approach Shen Chongming to see if there is a chance to assassinate him." ”
"Okay, Zi Qian, then I'm going to have to work hard for you." Zhao Wenyi looked at Zhao Ziqian and smiled. "Father-in-law, please rest assured, my daughter will live up to her mission."
