It's past three watches at night. Under the quiet moonlight, a cold air floats in the air like a dream, and the earth seems to be shrouded in a light veil. The silhouette of the distant peaks and peaks was difficult to identify, and the night sky was like a black cauldron, buckling above the black and majestic Xiangwu City. The high and wide city gate seemed to be like a monster, with the mouth of a black hole open, as if it was about to devour something. Except for the sound of the guards on duty on the city tower walking back and forth and the sound of low conversation, even the barking of dogs was gone, and Xiangwu City fell into a deep sleep.

Outside the east gate, two hundred men clenched their swords and clung to the city wall on the left and right sides, trying to suppress their increasingly heavy breathing. Many people shook and clenched the weapons in their hands, tightened and tightened, swallowed two mouthfuls of foam, and concentrated their minds completely at the city gate. Out of nowhere, a swarm of bats flew out, spreading their black wings, making silent whirls, sometimes almost pounced on people's heads, and the inky black night stuck to every corner, and also stained every heart.

At the forefront of the team, Chen An's left hand knife and right hand spear, hidden next to the black snake doorway, his face was difficult to distinguish, only a pair of sharp triangular eyes, reflecting cold light in the dark. He listened intently, as if he were not breathing.

A strange owl howl suddenly came, and everyone had goosebumps all over their bodies. Chen An's eyes widened suddenly, and he raised the spear in his hand upward, and everyone didn't dare to come out, only feeling that their heartstrings were about to break.

"Ahh

There were a few terrible screams from inside the doorway, which was especially terrifying in the dark night. The next moment, the muffled sound of Galala sounded, and the heavy city gate slowly opened. At this time, the soldiers on the city tower had already noticed the abnormality, and while the fire was bright, the footsteps and shouts also suddenly sounded.

"What's going on downstairs?"

"Lao Huai, Lao Huai! Is it a thief or a thief? ”

"It's an enemy attack! Fast! Fast! There is a sneak attack from an unknown enemy army! ”

In the midst of the crowd, a large number of Ulala's soldiers rushed down from the city tower, and sent Chen An into the city to lurk in advance, and suddenly burst out at night to kill the guards of the gate, and then quickly opened the city gate, all of them were hacked to death, and then rushed to try to close the city gate again.

Seeing that the crack in the door that was a few feet wide was opened and was about to close, Chen An jumped up, and stabbed to death the soldiers in front of the door with a spear in his chest, he squeezed forward, while holding the city gate with his body, trying to slow down the speed of closing, while holding the knife and spear in his hand, slashing and stabbing frantically, in less than a moment, he had killed more than a dozen Longxi soldiers.

The defenders in the city were suppressed by Chen An's ferocity for a while, and after a slight delay, the two hundred outlaws outside the city had already squeezed open the crack in the door, and they poured in, and when the blood was splashed, the screams sounded, and the drums of warning on the city tower began to sound rapidly. Chen An rushed to the forefront, and with a group of subordinates, like sharp knives, he quickly and fiercely stabbed into the unprepared Xiangwu City.

Ah Chi was suddenly awakened. It was still dark and quiet inside. She rubbed her eyes, and she could already hear all kinds of strange noises in the distance. On the closed window, the flickering light and darkness did not seem to be moonlight. She was a little uneasy in her heart, and turned her head to see that Gao Yue was sleeping soundly.

Ah Chi thought about it, got up and put on her clothes gently, and quietly walked to the window, she pushed open the window, and couldn't help but widen her eyes immediately. All kinds of shouts were mixed with the neighing of horses and the sound of footsteps, which were amplified in the ears, and even the occasional howls were so clear, and the night sky in the distance had been reflected in the skyrocketing fire into a purple red, which looked extremely strange.

Ah Chi subconsciously wanted to scream, but he covered his mouth again. She looked back in amazement, Gao Yue had woken up at some point, and was sitting on the bed leaning over, listening intently.

"Husband, outside, something seems to be wrong."

Ah Chi bit his lip and said worriedly, while simply lighting the lamp. Gao Yue jumped out of bed, walked to the window, stuck his head out of the window, and stood on tiptoe to look out. After a few moments, he retracted, his face grim.

"Ah Chi, you are in the house, don't walk around, there may be a lot of bandits making trouble, I'll go out and take a look." Gao Yue picked up his robe and put it on his body, picked up another saber, turned around and rushed out of the door, but his brain was dizzy, and the soles of his feet were still a little floating.

The door opened, and a gust of cold wind swept in the cold air, and Gao Yue couldn't help but shiver. He had just slept for an hour, and the drunkenness had not yet dissipated, when the cold wind blew and surged up, and he felt dizzy and short of breath. Seeing that his figure was stagnant, Ah Chi hurriedly ran over and hugged him tightly from behind, his worry overflowing.

"Husband, you were suddenly woken up before you slept for an hour, and you were dizzy and weak at regular intervals. And the wine is not gone, and I don't want you to go out on an adventure. Ah Chi's face was tightly pressed against Gao Yue's broad back, but she could feel Gao Yue's slight trembling, which made her heart even more uneasy.

"It doesn't matter, if I go out to command, my subordinates will feel a lot more at ease." Although he still felt a little weak, Gao Yue gritted his teeth, pretended to be indifferent, turned his head and comforted Ah Chi: "Besides, don't you still believe in your husband's ability, where is there anyone who is my opponent?" ”

Just as he was about to go out, he saw a figure running towards this side from the opposite wing, Gao Yue hurriedly pulled out his sword and shouted: "Stop, who is it?" ”

"Master, it's me, I'm Luomei!"

The figure stumbled out of the darkness and ran in front of him, it was the little maid Luomei. She held her chest in her hands, out of breath, and said tremblingly: "Master, it seems to be very chaotic outside, I, I'm a little scared, I want to come and be a companion with my wife." ”

Gao Yue nodded, and when he let Luomei in, Ah Chizao stretched out his hand, hugged the little maid tightly in his arms, and gently stroked her thin back.

The noise is getting a little closer. Gao Yuefang was about to take a step, but he stopped talking, and reluctantly smiled: "Ah Chi, don't be afraid, I'll go back as soon as I go." Go into the house, shut the doors and windows. Remember, don't open the door without me coming personally, whoever calls. ”

"Husband, I'm not afraid. You just have to be bold and bold to kill the enemy, and I will wait for your triumphant return. Ah Chi's face suddenly turned a resolute and heroic, and the second half of the sentence, she hid it in her heart and did not say it, in case Gao Yue had a good one, she would definitely die immediately.

Gao Yue gritted his teeth and strode away. As soon as I came to the front hall, I saw fifty or sixty pro-soldiers, crowded behind the gate of the government in the dark, and the thick door panel was smashed by something outside, and several cracks had been cracked, and at the same time, chaotic shouts kept coming in, and it was obvious that many enemies were attacking with all their might.

"Lord, lord is here!"

"Lord, the thieves outside seem to be coming straight to the lord, lord and beware!"

Seeing Gao Yue's arrival, the soldiers felt that their hearts were settled, and when they were talking nonsense, the door panel finally couldn't support it, and Kara fell down with a small half of the door, revealing more than three feet wide. Gao Yue hurriedly raised his eyes to see, under the reflection of the sky-high fire outside, there seemed to be a dense crowd of figures, and the spears and spears were all erected like tree branches, this was really not like an ordinary bandit.

Seeing that the gate of the government was finally broken, a burst of cheers immediately broke out outside, and there were many people rushing to cross the threshold and squeeze inside, all of them with hideous faces.

"Who the hell is the thief?"

Gao Yue roared angrily, leaned forward, the sword in his hand flashed, and he immediately hacked the first enemy soldier to death, and then raised his foot and kicked the second one who followed, and before he could turn over, he stabbed him to the ground cleanly. Those ferocious enemy soldiers did not answer, but shouted that Gao Yue was here, come and kill him, and so on. Gao Yue was furious, and he didn't ask any more, only took the lead in slashing wildly. Although he was still a little drowsy, and his strength was not as strong as usual, he felt that he could still support these miscellaneous soldiers. The soldiers on the left and right also swarmed up, and they all had no brains to just send their blades out to greet them.

The enemy side was not to be outdone, and rushed inside as if they were desperate, but the place where the door was broken could only squeeze in at most two or three people at the same time, although there were many people outside, they could not enter at the same time for a while, so the situation became a stalemate. In a short time, the corpses of the men killed in battle on both sides were piled up in a horizontal and vertical pile at the threshold of entry and exit, and stacked as high as the roots of adult thighs.

When it was intense, I suddenly heard a loud shout: Get out of the way!

Gao Yue raised his head sharply, and a spear with a pointed tip reflecting the light of fire had already pierced in front of him. Gao Yue hurriedly turned his head sideways to avoid, but there was a long knife that slashed down heavily, Gao Yue hurriedly raised his sword to block, when the bell sounded, sparks splashed everywhere, Gao Yue immediately felt that the weight of the sword in his hand was insufficient, he was awe-inspiring in his heart, this is a fierce enemy.

As soon as he returned to his senses, there was a person in front of him with a knife in his left hand and a spear in his right hand, attacking each other one after another, not only with great strength, but also extremely fast, and the move went straight to the point. The appearance of that person is unremarkable, only a pair of cold and fierce triangular eyes, as if they can penetrate people's hearts, and they are as sharp as a cone. Gao Yue didn't have time to care, a sword was blocked left and right, but his arm was weak, so he had to fight with all his strength.

"Gao Yue, today is your death date!"
