Chapter 5 The moonlight is shadowless, and the killing is merciless
In the ancient city at night, the quiet moonlight illuminates the city, but in the darkness that even the moonlight cannot penetrate, there are faint figures flickering. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Childe, what should I do with this child, those people are about to find here, taking her is a burden after all, and those people will not embarrass a child." In a simple courtyard, a big man looked anxious and tired, and there was still blood on the wounds on his body, and in front of him was a handsome young man. While they were talking, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl in the corner was staring at the ground in a daze, the tears on her face had dried up, leaving only two long tear stains, she was the vegetable washing girl on the pancake stand.
The handsome young man turned his head to look at the child's sluggish expression, let out a sigh, and his eyes became more determined: "No, I must take her, I owe her a life." ”
Seeing that the young man had fixed his mind, Dahan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was a moment of life and death, but with a child, many years of experience in the rivers and lakes, he couldn't help but feel that the young man was still too tender.
"But......" The big man tried to persuade again, but he heard the sound of broken tiles from the roof, and there were already figures shaking in the yard. The boy jumped out of the room like an arrow, and the Qinghong sword cut through the moonlight, and then the crisp sound of swords colliding sounded in the courtyard.
The big man glanced at the girl who was squatting in the corner again, and rushed into the courtyard with him.
In just a few back and forth, there were two more corpses in front of the young man, and blood slowly flowed out of his body.
"Give me a name."
"Have the ability to ask my sword."
"Do you know who we are? You're looking for death! ”
"Who lives and who dies depends on the ability."
After a brief conversation in the dark night, the two sides were entangled again, and people kept falling down in the courtyard, and people kept pouring in.
The young man's martial arts are extraordinary, under the cover of the night, his body style is even more strange and changeable, dozens of people can't get close, and the smell of blood in the air is even thicker.
"Boy, martial arts are good." At the gate of the courtyard, a middle-aged wealthy businessman walked in slowly, with a faint smile on his face, but in the night, it looked particularly infiltrating.
"Look at your swordsmanship, it should be from the northwest, Manichaeism? Qinglong Mountain? It can't be from Ten Mile Fort. The rich merchant casually said a few names, testing the other party's reaction.
"Hmph, no matter whose power you fight, this is SD or Yecheng, if you hit my attention, you will be killed." Seeing that the young man did not react, the rich businessman thought that he should not be a person with a background, so he paid attention to it, and his slightly bloated body suddenly accelerated, and rushed directly in front of the young man, his clothes bulging slightly, and a strong wind rushed to the back of the young man's heart.
The young man's body is weird, but he can't completely avoid the other party, plus there is a master next to him, so he can only connect the horizontal sword, and the strong wind slapped on the Qinghong sword, and the two people were separated in an instant.
"Young Master!" The big man in the room, seeing that the young master had been hit by the other party, hurriedly rushed over and blocked in front of the young man.
The rich merchant's face was slightly red, he didn't expect that the other party was young, but he was so internal, he couldn't control the enemy with one move, "Young man, leave a hand, and you can go." ”
"Old horseman, ask for my hand, in exchange for your life," the young man said coldly, holding back the churning of the sea of anger.
"Look for death!" There was a burst of shouts, and it was another strong wind, which was even more murderous than just now.
"Young Master, let's go!" The big man who was in front of the young man pushed him out, and the big knife in his hand slashed towards the rich merchant with all his might, only to see that the thick back of the knife was instantly shattered, and the strong wind slapped directly on his chest, and one hand sank deep into the big man's chest.
Seeing this, the young man turned his head and left, and after a few moves, he turned out of the yard.
The rich merchant stepped on the big man's head and looked at the direction where the young man was going, "See if you can catch up and find out the way." Several black figures chased in the direction the boy left.
The girl who was originally huddled in the corner of the wall was also brought out, looking at her trembling appearance, a smile appeared on the rich merchant's face again, "Your grandfather and grandson can be reunited, I am compassionate." As she spoke, her thick palm slapped towards the girl's heavenly spirit cover.
"Whoosh!" In the night, he suddenly remembered a strange sound, the rich merchant turned his head, a short arrow flew over his forehead, looking at the crossbow arrow deep into the ground, the rich merchant's heart suddenly felt cold, he knew that this was a strong arrow in the army, and it should not appear here.
In just a moment, the rich merchant had already raised the true qi of his whole body to the highest, and at the same time, in the night outside the courtyard, a voice came, "You can go, leave the child behind!" ”
"Dare to ask which way is the hero?" The rich merchant asked coldly, and what answered him was a rain of arrows in the night, and in just a moment, there were less than ten people left in the courtyard.
"Let's go!" The rich merchant's face was gloomy, and he jumped out of the wall with the people under him.
The girl was spread on the ground, her face was pale, and the fear emanating from the bottom of her heart made her unable to stay awake, and when the figure of the young man vaguely appeared in front of her, she fainted.
The young man is Li Huai, the cold moonlight shines on his face, it looks even whiter, and the air is filled with the smell of blood, which has made him almost vomit, he has been in this world for so long, even as the third son of the General's Mansion, it is the first time he has seen so many corpses, and most of them died because of him, so his heart will naturally not be calm.
Li Huaiqiang endured the bad feeling rolling in his chest, walked to the girl's side, looked at her face, and saw that the other party just fainted, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Young master, are you still chasing" The one who spoke was the guard of the General's Mansion, called Li Chaonian, the head of the guard of the Li Mansion, more than a dozen soldiers dressed like Li Chaonian walked out of the night, each of them had a crossbow in their hands, they were all veterans in the army, and they had been in the General's Mansion for some years, and this was the first time they had killed people in the city, and all because of the young man who was pale and forced to vomit.
Li Chaonian still remembers the first time he saw Li Huai, when he was still Li He's close guard, and the other party was just a gentleman in his eyes, a few years have passed, and the gentleman has become more and more unruly, until after that serious illness, the other party has settled down, but it is still a daily loitering and playing, until tonight, the other party found himself, and the two of them really met.
He met the gentleman named Li Huai, and Li Huai also got to know the head of the guard in the Li Mansion, Li Huai gave him what he was going to do, and he still remembered how shocked he looked, until the other party said that the bow and crossbow were taken out, he was sure that the other party was not joking, and after half an hour, Li Chaonian understood all the arrangements and arrangements of the young man, and he felt that the tiger father had no dog in his heart.
Li Chaonian could have refused tonight's action, but the half-hour conversation made him decide to put his future on the young man, he was sure that tonight was just the beginning of everything, and the young man would not always be just a young master.
"Don't chase it, wait for the news, Li Jiaotou will let the girl go back to the house first." Seeing that the girl was safe and sound, the nausea in her heart was slightly relieved, "Leave a few people to dispose of the corpses in the yard and leave that person for me." He pointed to the big man who died at the hands of a wealthy merchant.
Li Chaonian nodded, and several people quickly packed up, and the news quickly came back......
In the alley south of the city, several black-clothed people climbed over the wall under the leadership of a wealthy businessman, and there were more than a dozen porters in short clothes in the courtyard.
"Hall Master, didn't you catch it?" He saw that behind the rich businessman, dozens of brothers went out, and less than ten people came back, which showed that things had been unexpected.
The rich businessman didn't speak, but the murderous aura in his eyes made the people around him shudder, they all knew that the hall master in front of him was nicknamed "Smiling Buddha" on the rivers and lakes, and now he didn't even have a smiling face on his face, which showed the strength of anger. "Take the goods with you, the water here is too muddy."
After a while, more than a dozen trucks were lined up at the door, the rich businessman and his subordinates all changed into short clothes, looking at the car in front of him for more than ten years, the rich businessman looked grim, he wanted to come out and use them for a way to make money, but he didn't think that before the transaction, there were so many accidents, and he didn't know what to do next.
However, when the rich merchant hesitated, he turned his head to look at the street in the distance, and the figure of a young man suddenly appeared in his sight, it was a somewhat immature face, and the moonlight shone on his pale face, which was even more cold, in the eyes of the rich merchant, this was definitely a strange picture of clothes.
"Withdraw!" Almost at the same time as he gave the order, he had already moved backwards, and watched as short arrows flew out of the night, a rain of arrows that was even denser than in the small courtyard, and slapped like a summer rainstorm without leaving a gap, and then the second round, and then the third round...... It wasn't until after the fifth round of arrow rain that a soldier with a crossbow bolt stepped out behind the young man.
This courtyard was mentioned in Uncle Jiu's letter, so Li Huai arranged ten machine crossbows early, which was the private collection of the General's Mansion, and he insisted on coming out, because Uncle Jiu's information mentioned a rich businessman, known as the master of the "Smiling Buddha", although he didn't know how high, but Li Huai felt that ten machine crossbows were enough.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, which was no longer human, Li Huai's face turned even paler, Li Chaonian stopped in front of him, signaling him to follow him, at the back of the convoy, the rich merchant was still panting, after all, he was a martial arts person, although he was hit by several arrows in his back, he was still alive.
"Who the hell are you!?" The ninja was in severe pain, and he shouted in the direction of the boy.
Li Huai patted Li Chaonian on the shoulder, whispered a few words, and walked over, "You can go, the goods have to stay!" The boy's tone was calm and unmistakable.
Although these goods are the root of the mountain, but they are not comparable to their own lives, and there are dealings, rich businessmen believe that they have temporarily retreated, and there will always be a time to get back, and then not only the goods, but also their lives! "Good!" The rich merchant smiled coldly and prepared to get up and leave.
"Mountains and rivers meet, seniors go well!" The young man bowed his hand from afar, looking full of pride, but in the eyes of the rich businessman, after all, it was just a chick, and at the moment when he was about to return the salute, he saw several black shadows in the corner of his eye, and before he could react, two crossbows fired in a salvo, and five soldiers held arrows and crossbows to shoot arrows from the rooftops on both sides of the street.
If he had been in the past, he would never have been unaware, but today's many accidents have exhausted him, and with the sincerity of what the young man said, he was negligent.
After the rain of arrows, the rich merchant fell to the ground in terror.
Li Chaonian stepped forward, cut off the head of the rich merchant with a knife, looked at it carefully, threw it to the soldiers behind him, and walked in front of Li Huai, "It's the Smiling Buddha, the four masters of Dulonggang in the north." ”
Li Huai nodded, and muttered, "Dulonggang, it's a little familiar." ”
