Body 116 Assassination
Li Hong chose to build the city at the foot of Taiyi Mountain precisely because he knew better than anyone how important Taiyi Mountain's vast and boundless resources were.
In the previous life, Taiyi Mountain is still mined again, because it is one of the largest gold mines in China, and there are other metal and non-metal minerals, building materials and stones, which are the most valuable wealth of Taiyi Mountain.
With his experience in the ninth and tenth lives, if he didn't build the city at the foot of Taiyi Mountain, he would really be kicked in the brain by a donkey.
A group of more than a dozen people walked slowly on the mountain road, but for some reason, Li Hong felt more and more frightened, and a dangerous aura made him feel very uncomfortable.
stepped forward and silently grabbed Wu Mei's hand, looked around vigilantly, and whispered to the palace maid: "Xiaohan, Bai Lu, protect the queen mother." Lian Tie, let your people be vigilant, always feel that something is wrong. ”
The sun was shining directly on the mountain road, and the birds in the woods on both sides did not know when they stopped chirping, and even the insects in the grass occasionally made one or two sounds.
The guard ran back from the front road and said, "The mountain has collapsed in front of you and is impassable. ”
Li Hong's brows tightened, and he said decisively: "After Liantie, Banmei, and Xunlan protect their mother, Bai Lu and Xiaohan take four people to break off, and the six of you will open the way with me." ”
"Hong'er......." Wu Mei also felt that something was wrong, as if there were many eyes staring at her in the dark.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother, it's okay. Here you go, take this. Li Hong took out a swallow-winged crossbow, put the arrow on behalf of Wu Mei, and handed it to her.
More than a dozen people began to slowly retreat down the mountain, Wu Mei was protected in the middle, left and right were occupied by her palace maids Banmei and Xunlan, Li Hong and Lian Tie were in front of her, and six guards opened the way, Bai Lu, Xiao Han and four guards were at the end, protecting Wu Mei behind.
The entire mountain forest was quiet, the unusual and strange atmosphere was getting stronger and stronger, and Wu Mei's brows were also wrinkled more and more, but there was no trace of panic on her face, and she followed Lian Tie and Li Hong steadily, and slowly walked down the mountain.
In a wide area of the mountain col ahead, Li Hong suddenly hesitated, and under the cover of the mountain path, Li Hong motioned for everyone to stop, looked back and forth, and said lightly: "Don't go forward." ”
"How's that going to work? Could it be that we are sitting here and waiting to die? Wu Mei held Li Hong's shoulders, pulled him into her arms, and said vigilantly.
"The enemy didn't have crossbow arrows, so they cut off the way up the hill and saw the wide area ahead? That's where they've got, and I'm sure the road has been cut off any further. Li Hong said firmly, reaching out and patting Wu Mei's hand on his shoulder.
"So what now?" Wu Mei asked softly.
And so on. When they can't bear it, they will naturally rush out, we now occupy a geographical advantage, and it is difficult for them to attack up and down, only in this way can we be invincible. ”
Li Hong said while signaling everyone to step back, the place where he passed by just now was relatively flat, and there were big stones on both sides of the mountain road that could be defended, like a small mountain gate, only there was the safest.
Seeing that everyone had already entered the relatively open mountain road and occupied a favorable position, Li Hong looked up at the sky, then looked at the dense forests on both sides, and said, "White dew, send a purple distress signal." ”
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, Li Hong raised the danger level to the highest, which is enough to show that Li Hong attaches great importance to this danger, not to mention that he has already felt that the thick murderous aura is gradually spreading in the woods on both sides of the mountain road.
Almost at the same time, as Bai Lu's whistle arrows burst into the sky with purple fireworks, figures began to appear in the dense forests on both sides, and the weapons occasionally reflected the cold light in the sunlight that penetrated into the forest.
Wu Mei looked coldly at the masked black-clothed man who rushed out, at this moment she was not in the mood to guess who was going to see the assassination of her, she was only concerned now about how many people there were, and whether the dozen or so people could handle it.
There was not a trace of shouting and killing, only the occasional sound of iron weapons colliding when two and two collided, and the muffled snort after being killed.
The two swallow-winged crossbows in Li Hong's hand did not shoot, and he would not shoot them indiscriminately until the number of enemies was known.
Li Hong only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and Lian Tie next to him only left an afterimage in his sight, and the whole person had already rushed to the edge of the mountain road.
There was no weapon in his hand, but those hands were deadlier than any weapon!
The two arms like poisonous snakes twisted and flipped unconventionally, and before the enemy could react, one hand had already choked off the enemy's neck.
Without waiting for the enemy to fall, even the iron cat waist and bowed down, like a civet cat, his elbow was like a thorn, and smashed straight into the heart of the person behind him, and suddenly the man snorted and curled up to the ground in pain.
The whole mountain road is quiet and frightening, except for the sound of weapons breaking through the air and muffled grunts, only the occasional sound of bones being snapped can be heard.
There were enemies pouring in from all directions, Bai Lu and Xiao Han had a dagger shot by Li Hong in their hands, like a sickle of death, their graceful bodies were gentle and soft, shuttling among the enemies, and every shot could bring out a handful of blood flowers.
The ten guards were obviously carefully selected by Lian Tie, and they were besieged by three or four people, but they were still able to stay unflustered, even if they were slashed and stabbed with horizontal knives, the expressions on their faces remained unchanged at all.
As his pupils narrowed and the light of death flashed, he grabbed the enemy's horizontal knife that pierced his body with one hand, and cut off the opponent's head with the other, and before his arm could be withdrawn, his arm was cut off by another enemy who rushed to him.
With a muffled snort, at the moment when he couldn't grasp the balance of his body, he suddenly pulled out the horizontal knife inserted in his body, and pulled a cushion for himself with his backhand, and at this time, he was hit by two more knives behind him, and then slowly fell to the ground.
Li Hong looked at the bloody scene in front of him, shook his head unconsciously, bumped Wu Mei with his shoulder, and motioned to go to the top of the mountain, this place should not be far from the Zongsheng Palace, hoping to get some help.
Wu Mei also looked at him, the eyes of the two were opposite, both flashed with composure and calmness, and under the protection of Banmei and Xunlan, they slowly continued to walk up the mountain.
But there were many enemies rushing down from the mountain, and at this time, I saw Lian Tie break the neck of an enemy, and with a leap, he flew towards Wu Mei, and when he was in the air, his two feet were like sledgehammers, one kick at the other, and kicked on the enemy's head.
After the unsuspecting enemy was kicked, he crashed uncontrollably into the rocks on the nearby mountain road, either breaking his head and bleeding and losing his combat effectiveness, or fainting at once.
Lian Tie didn't wait for Li Hong's order, he already knew what to do, snatched two horizontal knives, one in each hand, and Banmei and Xunlan were afraid of death to block the enemy's approach.
The three of them struggled to open a gap in the dense crowd, but there were too many enemies to break through at once.
Li Hong and Wu Mei did not walk a distance of about ten steps at this time.
Quietly watching the tragic and silent killing scene, Li Hong's eyes passed through the crowd, his arm was raised quickly and calmly, and a cold light flew through his hand, quickly shooting towards the outermost part of the encirclement.
The outermost enemy in the encirclement, obviously a leader, saw the cold light flashing in Li Hong's hand, and immediately raised his knife to block it, and with a "ding" sound, the cold light was separated and shot into the temple of the unsuspecting enemy next to him, and immediately fell to the ground.
Li Hong's murderous aura was even stronger, and without waiting for the man's reaction, after the first arrow was blocked, he immediately fired the second and third arrows, the second was blocked again, and the third shot did not give the enemy a chance to breathe, and shot the man's throat with great accuracy.
Immediately, blood oozed from the man's fingers, soaking the black clothes on his body, and the whole person slowly fell down unwillingly.
As the man was shot by Li Hong, the enemy on the road up the mountain suddenly panicked, and under the impact of Lian Tie and Banmei and Xun Lan, plus Bai Lu and Xiao Han, a gap had been opened.
Li Hong was silent, and quickly took out a row of arrows from his waist, and the three arrows were quickly wound by him, and then he took Wu Mei's hand and slowly walked forward.
The dense forest on both sides is still a narrow mountain road, and at this time it is already full of corpses, and the ten people who were originally guarded are only three people who are holding on at this time.
Bai Lu's face was also pale, a long wound on his waist and abdomen was bleeding out, and the dagger in his hand was not as fast and sharp as it was at the beginning.
A person stabbed out obliquely, the horizontal knife stabbed out silently from behind Bai Lu, and when Bai Lu found out, it was too late to turn around, at this moment, I saw a cold light flashing, the horizontal knife was about an inch away from her back of the heart, and suddenly softened, and her temple was shot by a small arrow.
Li Hong frowned, glanced at Bai Lu's miserable appearance, took a deep breath, pulled Wu Mei and continued to walk forward without looking back, at this moment he knew that he couldn't stay, and he couldn't save Bai Lu.
Lian Tie brought out three blood waves with a single sword, and at once Wu Mei and Li Hong walked a few steps forward quickly!
The horizontal knives in the hands of Banmei and Xunlan also did not show weakness, and they struggled to point the enemy's wrists, at this moment they were already more than capable of killing, and what they could do was to make the enemy lose their combat effectiveness as much as possible.
Xiao Han has been dispersed by the crowd, lost contact with Bai Lu, and was also besieged by three black-clothed people, each move is to hack Xiao Han's fatal place, Xiao Han relied on his body to be erratic, wandering uncertainly, and at the same time relying on the shelter of the trees in the woods, for a while, the three of them couldn't help him.
Lian Tie snorted, woke up Li Hong, who was looking at Xiao Han's direction, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Wu Mei like herself just now, the swallow-winged crossbow in her hand was quickly raised and put down, and a cold light flew by, shooting into the shoulder of the enemy behind Lian Tie, and between the lightning and flint, it bought a favorable time for Lian Tie.
