Lu Ling hurriedly hugged Xi Zhicai, who was almost falling, and persuaded: "Mr. Xi, don't be sad. The slave family often hears people say that Luan Ziqi, the leader of the Holy Mother of God, is a person who values love and righteousness. In the past, Cao Mengde forced his dear second uncle to death, and he was still tolerant. Now, Mr. Xi has no grievances with him, why did he take Mr.'s life? ”

"That's right!" Xi Zhicai suddenly realized. Luan Yi, whom he knew, cherished the friendship between them when they were young, and belonged to the kind of person who would rather give up his life than have his friendship damaged. I will never murder him.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you want to kill him, you have to have a reason. Yuan Shaojian said at that time that Luan Yi killed him to cut off Yuan Shao's right-hand man, but now that Yuan Shao is dead, Hebei is scattered and sandy, and it can no longer pose any threat to Luan Yi. What's the point of going to great lengths to kill him at this time? Isn't that an extra move?

Xi Zhicai immediately understood that the gang in front of him was definitely not sent by Luan Yi.

So apart from Sun Ce, who else in this world wants to take his life? The answer is about to come out - Sun Ce.

Sun Ce's invitation was rejected by him. was resentful, afraid that one day after he crossed the river north, he would take refuge in Luan Yi and become Luan Yi's arm, so he sent men and horses to take his life.

Definitely.

Xi Zhicai immediately understood. Secretly sighed that although he had already reached this point, he hurriedly took out Moling (the predecessor of Moling Jianye), but he didn't expect to be blocked by Sun Ce's people.

Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai said to the leader of the men in black: "I'm afraid that you are not Luan Yanzhou's subordinates, but sent by General Sun!" ”

The man in black didn't defend himself when he saw through it, and laughed, "Okay! is worthy of being a genius of salvation, and he can see our identity so quickly. But so what, your death is just around the corner, and there is nowhere to say if you know. He drew the sword in his sheath and said to his men, "Brothers, do it." ”

"Woo ......" Hundreds of black-clothed people took out bright sharp weapons at the same time.

Facing the hundreds of heavily armed men in black, Xi Zhicai suddenly felt nervous. However, he was as strong as him, but he never thought of kneeling and begging for mercy. In other words, no one in the Eight Talents of Salvation has ever succumbed to a strong enemy. Neither can he.

He stiffened his spine and pulled out the long sword at his waist with his sweat-stained hand, wanting to hide Lu Ling behind him. But he never thought that Lu Ling took the first step and went around to the front of him, and in turn blocked him with his delicate posture.

"Lu Ling, you?" He was stunned, but he heard Lu Ling say: "Bold! Plotting in broad daylight, the murderer doesn't look at what kind of place this is. ”

Lu Ling's voice was still crisp and pleasant, but at this time, it was full of obvious anger.

The leader of the man in black glanced at Lu Ling, and through those delicate and pure eyes, he saw through the men's clothes on Lu Ling's body. In an instant, there was a lustful (yin) look in his ruthless eyes that made Xi Zhicai extremely disgusting. He squinted and asked, "Where is it?" ”

"The hinterland of the parish is bright and clear, and it is not possible to wait for the rampant night." Lu Ling's angry rebuke syllable.

"Parish? Haha...... "The man in black remembered that the Church of Our Lady was accustomed to calling the Qing Yan and Xu Yu under Luan Yi's rule a diocese, and the rest of the place as a non-diocese. "What about the diocese? This barren mountain range is inaccessible to people, and your Virgin's hand cannot reach here. ”

"Hmph, Rat-eyed Disciple, do you know that the Virgin's light is everywhere?" As soon as Lu Ling's voice fell, Xi Zhicai was stunned. How can you listen to this, Lu Ling looks like a member of the Holy Mother?

He remembered that on the way to get up, the Lu Ling sisters and brothers would sit in their seats and stay in the seats for a while before eating. I didn't think about it before, but now it seems that prayer before meals is not the custom and code of conduct of the Virgin.

Stunned, the man in black laughed arrogantly and said, "The glory of the Virgin is everywhere? So where is Our Lady now? Why didn't they come to your rescue? ”

"Hmph. Saying that you are a rat's eye, it's really a rat's eye. Lu Ling snorted coldly and said to Lu Qi: "Seventh brother, send a signal." ”

Surprisingly. Lu Qi, who was said to be Lu Ling's brother, bowed respectfully to his subordinates, and then nodded to the twenty guards holding steel knives behind him.

The head of the guard understood, took out a short bamboo tube from his bosom, lit the fuse and held it high into the sky. With a thud, a dazzling ball of light burst into the sky and exploded in the sky, emitting a piercing roar.

The guards used signal cannons that had been modified by ordnance making.

After a cannon shot, I saw a team of carts and horses pouring out at the end of the road in front and at the corner behind the road, and there were more than 40 carts in total.

These two teams of carriages and circuses are very familiar, aren't they the caravans that passed by him just now?

The convoy soon came to the front from far and near, and with the neighing of the tall horses pulling the cart, the wheels came to an abrupt halt, and the grain, rice, brocade, and other goods contained in the body of the cart suddenly opened, and four or five soldiers in armor appeared in each cart. More than 40 carts add up to more than 200 people. Together with the servants who escorted the carriages and horses, there were as many as three hundred.

Among the more than 300 people, more than 200 soldiers hiding in the car body climbed out of the car with steel knives, revealing bright armor. If you look closely, the carving on the chest of the armor is particularly clear, and it is actually a cross badge with a pattern.

More than a hundred servants in civilian clothes found a short and delicate steel crossbow out of nowhere, and the bright crossbow bolts on the steel crossbow were facing the man in black, ready to attack.

The man in black and Xi Zhicai were at the same time. "It's ......"

As soon as the words fell, I heard Lu Ling say coldly: "Kill them!" Not a single one is left. ”

"Whoa!"

The leader of the men in black was shocked, and before he could recover from the shock, there was a fierce sound of breaking the air in his ears, "Buzzing ......"

Hundreds of crossbow arrows left the crossbow at the same time, and after a round of crossbow arrows, a hundred black-clothed people fell in a pool of blood. The two hundred armor soldiers immediately stepped on the shocking steps and slaughtered violently.

The men in black still wanted to fight back, but they sneaked into Jiangbei without a piece of armor. However, the team of guards of the Cult of the Virgin Mary in front of them were wearing solid armor, and the blades in their hands were unstoppable. If you slash it with all your strength, it will leave a deep gap in the blade of the man in black.

In addition, this team of armor soldiers has a small shield to protect the body, and after blocking the attack, they will counterattack with a long knife, cover each other, integrate attack and defense, and cooperate with each other very tacitly. Where are the Men in Black their opponents? In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people fell.

The leader of the men in black panicked, and if he continued like this, he would have to be wiped out. In a hurry, the dog suddenly jumped over the wall and focused his eyes on Xi Zhicai and Lu Ling. "It's not so easy to let Lao Tzu die. Kill him for me. ”

Xi Zhicai saw more than 30 big men, turned the knife edge, and frantically killed himself, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat. At the critical moment, he anxiously urged Lu Ling, "Come to me soon." I'm here to protect you! ”

Lu Ling's lips rose and she smiled gratefully, "Let the slave family protect you!" The words jumped out with a bang. The action was so fast, and the drama only felt a flower in front of him, and Lu Ling was already five steps away. With a shake of her hands, a pair of silver nine-section whips flung out of her sleeves and fell into her hands. With a flick of his hand, the whip of his right hand shot out, binding the steel knife in the hand of the leader of the man in black. The spike attached to the end of the whip pierced the back of the man in black's hand.

Lu Ling then made a swift leap, wrapped the whip around the shoulder of the man in black, and pulled it hard behind the leader in black. The man in black was in pain, screaming and throwing away his blade. At this time, Lu Ling whipped out with his left hand, hit the neck of the man in black, and used inertia to entangle it for several weeks. She then kicked the leader of the men in black in the back of his knees, kicking him to his knees. Lu Ling shook his right hand, restrained the nine-section whip in the right hand of the black-clothed leader, and pierced the whip head into the temple of the black-clothed leader.

At the same time as Lu Ling made a move, Lu Qi and more than 20 servants who were traveling with him were not idle. Lu Qi never leaves his hand on weekdays, and Xi Zhicai also said that it is Lu Qi's habit to hold a feather fan. At this time, Fang knew that the fan could not only fan the wind, but also be a sharp weapon for killing. The feather fan looked like a normal fan, but in fact, there was a pair of iron bones under the cover of the rich wings, and when the dark groove on the fan was broken, three sharp iron hooks would pop out from the top of the fan bone, which looked like the sharp claws of a goshawk. As soon as you fan it, there are three deep scratches that can be seen in the bone.

Lu Qi held the feather fan and swept left and right, and the more than 20 servants who walked with him were also brave and martial.

The brother and sister teamed up with the outer armor to join forces with the outside and left the corpses all over the ground.

Xi Zhicai, who was standing in a pool of blood, was holding a seven-foot long sword and looked at all this in a daze. It was only when the last man in black fell to the ground that he relented, "You guys? Who the hell is it? ”

Lu Ling smiled slightly, wiped a handful of blood stains on her cheeks with her sleeve, walked up to Xi Zhicai, raised her right hand and made a standard salute to report to the house, and said, "The Slave Holy Sect Aegis is fine Lu Ling, number 60, meet Mr. Xi." She pointed to Lu Qi behind her, "This is also an Aegis detail, numbered six or seven." We are under the orders of the Patriarch, the Bishop of Aegis, and we are responsible for your safety. ”

"Keeping me safe?"

"Yes." Lu Ling nodded, "Actually, since you started working in Hebei, the sect leader and the cardinal lord in the sect have always been very concerned about your safety. and he will send someone to protect you secretly. If you encounter any danger, the Cult of S.H.I.E.L.D. will do whatever it takes to rescue you. Two years ago, it was the senior who was responsible for keeping you safe. Later, due to his poor martial arts, the sect leader was afraid that he would not be able to take on this position, so he transferred him to Youzhou and let the slave family and Lu Qi take over his task. ”

"You said the dove is your man." Xi Zhicai was shocked. He also knew this dove, and it was his former neighbor. This person is very enthusiastic, seeing that Xi Zhicai is single, and the people in the Ping Suri family will always invite Xi Zhicai to taste it when they make some delicious food and drink. Knowing that Xi Zhicai is not high, he will also send Xi Zhicai cloth and clothes during the New Year's holidays, and has established a good neighborhood friendship with Xi Zhicai
