Chapter 20: A Shocking Accident
The sound of drums finally stopped, and the official in front of the incense case unfolded a volume of yellow silk books, cleared his throat, and began to read out the sacrificial texts of worshiping heaven and earth, which were nothing more than some high-sounding contents such as praying to the heavens and blessing the prosperity of Yunnan and the people living and working in peace and contentment.
After reading the sacrificial text, Sun Decheng also finished worshipping heaven and earth with three bows and nine knocks. The drum music sounded again, and after Sun Dechengzhi scanned the audience proudly, Shi Shiran just stepped down from the altar.
Suddenly, from the team of musicians in the west, a red figure swept up from the ground, holding a dazzling cold light, swept like a flame, and rushed towards Sun Decheng.
This sudden change of events immediately confused me. No way! This person clearly wants to assassinate Sun Decheng! But I remember very well that there were really no people in the musicians in the plan, and besides, without my orders, how could anyone act in advance?
In the moment of my reverie, the red shadow was already wrapped in a sharp sword and stabbed in front of Sun Decheng. And that Sun Decheng is worthy of being a battle-hardened veteran, although his body is a little bloated and fat, but at this moment when he can't be helped, he is still a surging fish, and he actually dodged this fatal blow, although he has fallen sideways under the altar, and his image looks a little embarrassed, but his life has been saved temporarily.
At this time, seven or eight more people with various blades rushed out of the musician procession, and quickly entangled the honor guard around the altar.
And the red-clothed assassin missed the blow, without the slightest hesitation, and quickly adjusted his body, twisted his waist, and the sword group fell down, stabbing towards Sun Decheng again. At this time, a tall and thin Chinese character who was originally crowded in the crowd had already jumped out of the crowd, jumped in front of the altar, and a green steel sword quickly and incoherently struck, blocking the thunderous attack of the red-clothed assassin.
The red-clothed assassin was even more anxious when he was stopped by this, and with a shake of his left hand, another short knife in his hand, his blades flew up, and he attacked like a storm, leaving no room for error.
And the tall and thin man was unexpectedly inferior for a while because of his hasty move, but although he was a little passive for the time being, his sword moves were fierce and his defense was tight, so that the red-clothed assassin couldn't succeed for a while.
At this time, the field was already in chaos, although those generals wanted to rush up to answer, but because they had no weapons in their hands, they couldn't help at all, and the tooth soldiers guarding in the distance only then came to their senses and rushed to the altar from all directions.
I reacted from the confusion, and I don't have to think about it, these assassins are not our group at all. They would have chosen the day, and although they seemed to have helped us, they attracted the palace soldiers too early, and greatly reduced the chances for us to do it. If Sun Decheng is allowed to get away because of this, it will be a disservice.
And that Sun Decheng took this opportunity to get up and drag his bloated body towards the main hall. Seeing that Sun Decheng was about to run in front of me, I hurriedly glanced at Lin Yi, took off the burden behind me, and showed the five-shot shotgun.
Sun Decheng was running, and when he saw me take out a swarthy object, his eyes were full of surprise.
Before he could speak, I had already quickly loaded the bullet and shouted at Sun Decheng: "Yunnan Xuanfu made Li Yi to beg for the thief, and the Sun thief took his life!" ”
Then, I pulled the trigger, only to hear a loud 'boom', Sun Decheng covered the exploding chest, looked at me with frightened eyes, and showed an expression of disbelief, then staggered back a few steps and then fell to the ground, convulsed a few times and then did not move.
I was about to step forward and give him another shot, but I didn't expect Yang Baocheng, who was standing nearby, to react, and had already rushed behind me quickly, holding me tightly with my arms, although my strength was much greater after crossing, but Yang Baocheng's strength was not to be underestimated, and I couldn't use my strength left and right, and I couldn't break free for a while.
When I was struggling, I heard a thunder explosion in the air, presumably Lin Yi had already released the thunder in the sky, my heart was wide, and I immediately exerted all my strength, my arms rounded, broke free from the shackles behind me, and was about to turn around and give him a shot, but I saw a flash of cold light, and a bright flying knife had flown in front of me, seeing that I couldn't dodge, I didn't expect a long sword to fly from the oblique stab, and just right to knock the flying knife to the ground.
All of a sudden, my whole body was soaked in cold sweat. That flying knife just now was so powerful, if it hadn't been shot down by the long sword in time, I would have been passed through my chest, and this trip would have been over.
Based on the direction and direction of the throwing knife, I quickly judged that it was the damn Su Baojian, who took the time to shoot it during the fierce battle with the red-clothed assassin, but who threw that long sword?
I looked around, only to see that there was already a sound of fighting in the field, and in the direction where the long sword was thrown, I don't know when there was a young man in black, who was vaguely one of the few people I met in the 'Jade Huchun' restaurant, he stood with his hands in his hands, as if he didn't see the killing in the field. Although I don't know if he is friend or foe, judging from the situation of throwing a sword to save me, at least he will not be the enemy's helper.
At this time, Lin Tong and the others had already drawn out the blades hidden in the box, rushed forward one after another, and fought with Sun Decheng's tooth soldiers, but after a few face-to-face efforts, more than a dozen tooth soldiers had already fallen to the ground, and it seemed that Lin Tong and the others were still able to deal with these tooth soldiers.
At this time, at the gate of the palace, there was already a sound of killing, seeing that the guards at the door were fleeing in embarrassment, Lin Duo and others bravely entered the palace, and the corpses of tooth soldiers were already lying on both sides of the road. The palace gate has been successfully occupied by our people, and none of the generals who were arrogant just now dared to rush in front of me because they were afraid of the shotguns in my hands, and they were looking for opportunities to flee for their lives. And those so-called civil officials fled to the main hall for refuge.
Yang Baocheng had already been frightened by my divine power at this time, and he was cowering and running towards the crowd, trying to flee with the flow of people, and I didn't care about him, anyway, this kind of villain couldn't run anywhere.
I was about to thank the young man, but he was nowhere to be seen. I was about to look left and right, but I saw that the tall and thin Su Bao saw that he had gotten rid of the entanglement of the red-clothed assassin, and was quickly rushing towards me, seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, I quickly picked up the shotgun and hooked the trigger, but I didn't expect Su Bao to see that his body changed very quickly, and he avoided this fatal shot with a sideways move between the lightning and the stone fire, and the long sword in his hand was already pointing at my throat. In my panic, it was too late for the bullet to load, so I had to block it with the barrel of the shotgun in my hand, who knew that Su Bao saw that he didn't wait for the trick to be old, and quickly moved the tip of the sword down, heading straight for my chest.
While I secretly screamed that it was not good, it was too late to dodge, and my heart was suddenly discouraged, alas! I was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe just now, but this time there is no hope at all.
Unexpectedly, the long sword never moved forward an inch, and slowly fell down a few inches in front of my chest, I looked at it in amazement, only to see Su Baojian not far in front of me, but there was a painful expression on his face, and a sharp blade appeared on his chest, and behind him stood the red-clothed assassin.
It turned out that the red-clothed assassin had already tracked him down, and while Su Bao was concentrating on dealing with me, he delivered a fatal blow from behind.
I breathed a long sigh of relief, and saw the red-clothed swordsman kick over Su Baojian's body, slowly pulled out the long sword from behind him, and carefully wiped it clean on his corpse, and then slowly raised his head.
Suddenly, my eyes lit up, and a beautiful face appeared in front of me, wow! It's unexpected! Unexpectedly, the red-clothed assassin with such a high level of martial arts turned out to be a delicate woman, and she was also a beautiful woman with bright eyes and bright teeth and a peerless appearance.
I opened my mouth wide, looking at her flower-like face in disbelief, and slowly felt fascinated, and there was a short circuit in my brain. No way! This is the most beautiful woman I've ever met. Although that brutal and willful Guo Rong is also good-looking, compared with the girl in red in front of her, it should still be inferior.
Of course, after all, I am a person who has seen the world, and how can I be confused by the beauty in front of me, so after quickly adjusting my mood, I still said with gratitude: "Li Yi, the Xuanfu envoy in Xiayunnan, thank you for the girl's help and the strong enemy for us, thank you here!" ”
The lady in red stared at me with a playful smile in her big clear and beautiful eyes, and only after a long time did she lightly open her lips and say with deep meaning: "You are Li Yi?" I've heard for a long time that you're the best of the best. Hee-hee! I don't know what Badou looks like, but the champion of the Han is such a bold and knowledgeable person, which is really impressive. Feed! You killed the Sun thief for me, avenged my extermination, and I also saved your life, but we don't owe each other, hehe! Master Li, there will be a date later. ”
After saying this, she smiled at me, turned around and drifted away, and the seven or eight people who were with her also followed her over the wall.
The woman in red floated away like this, which made me feel a little lost, such a beautiful woman is rare to see in a hundred years, and I don't know when I can see again. Alas! But loss is loss, now is not the time for me to miss women, there are still many things waiting for me to do.
