Chapter 51: Close Quarters Assassination

The gate of Qingyun Fort is about 100 steps away from the righteous platform. When Chu Tianya and Meng De walked out of the walled gate, every step they took felt that the pressure on their bodies was a little heavier.

It's not that they're timid or scared. Instead, the atmosphere here is gradually becoming tense and dignified, as if there is a more oppressive force in the air. Of the seven or eight hundred monk cave leaders and minions brought by Zhang Duyan, none of them were not cold-blooded and violent lords, and killing people was like killing chickens, without blinking an eye.

Right now, these seven or eight hundred cold-blooded madmen are staring at Chu Tianya, Meng De and the others like butchers, and everyone is holding the weapons in their hands.

This situation does not look like an alliance between the two parties at all, but like one side is on the execution platform, and the other side is full of executioners preparing for execution.

Meng De saw Zhang Duyan sitting on the stage from a distance, hated itchy, and said in a low voice: "Brother, Zhang Duyan is too treacherous!" obviously said that we would all hand in our weapons, but he asked his subordinates, a group of minions who killed people without blinking, all of them to bring weapons. Also, he is wearing armor today, and his whole body is under protection. What's more, this fight is as powerful as Niu Biao, but we only have a short dagger at close range, and it is more difficult to kill him with one blow. ”

Chu Tianya smiled slightly, "No matter how tightly he covers it, his toad eyes without an eyepatch have nowhere to hide." ”

"Brother is smart, just prick him blind first!"

Chu Tianya looked around, and said, "It's too quiet around, and there are no birds." There will be an ambush in the mountains and forests. Our time is extremely short, and once we do it, we will kill him at any cost! Otherwise, the wounded beast will be even more ferocious! ”

"I didn't say it, I fought it!"

Zhang Duyan watched Chu Tianya, Meng De and the others come over, the toad's eyes were full of cold light, and he stared at them without taking his eyes off. When they reached twenty steps in front of the righteous platform, Zhang Duyan suddenly stood up and shouted, "Stop! ”

The nerves of the leaders and minions beside him were already highly tense, and at this time, almost reflexively, all of them pulled out their knives. Over there, Meng De and the others also stood still when they heard the sound, and they all subconsciously touched the place where the blade was hidden.

"Ha, hahaha!" Zhang one-eyed laughed wildly, "Sure enough, all of them are hiding blades!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Chu Tianya's face turned white: It's too cunning!

"The surname is Chu!" Zhang One-eyed thundered loudly, pulled out the ring-headed knife on his waist and thrust it into the righteous platform, and roared angrily, "Is this the righteous platform or the guillotine?" -- What is your intention to come out with your blades hidden! ”

Xiao Linglong, who was standing behind Zhang Duyan, was holding a flying knife in her palm, and she was about to break the skin of her hand and bleed, and her heart was also nervous to the extreme, and she couldn't help but tremble slightly. She looked up and down at Zhang Duyan, who was standing three or five steps away from her, her entire back was tightly wrapped in armor, if this flying knife was hit, even if it could hurt him, it would be difficult to kill him with one blow!

"How's that good?" For a while, Xiao Linglong, who was originally prepared for a sneak attack, was also annoyed and anxious.

"Brothers, don't be nervous!" Chu Tianya raised his hands and said loudly, "Master Zhang Zhai likes to be witty, so he made a little joke with us!" - Master Zhangzhai, you are a hundred steps and fifty steps! Look at us, all of us come out with bare hands; The brothers around you, each of them has a weapon in their hand that is not less than three feet! To borrow the words of Zhang Zhaizhu, the heart of defense is indispensable! Could it be that we can still rely on these small daggers to cut flesh to fight with Zhang Zhai's big knife? ”

After saying that, Chu Tianya took out the short dagger hidden in his boots, patted it on his hand, and threw it aside.

Meng De and the others gritted their teeth, and also took out the short dagger blades they were hiding and threw them aside.

"Haha!" Zhang Yiyan laughed wildly, "What a clever mouth!" Well said, well said - brothers, put the guys away, don't freak out our good friends! ”

Zhang Duyan also thought it through, if the fight started like this now, Meng De and the others could run back, and as soon as the gate of the village was closed, it would be over today. First, they have removed their hidden weapons, and it will be much easier to fight!

When the thieves heard this, they all put down their knives. The tension touched the atmosphere of the hair, and it eased slightly.

Chu Tianya's forehead was already wet with cold sweat. Look at Zhang Duyan standing opposite, there are still twenty paces away - now his own people have thrown away the only talisman weapon; Once the fight starts, the odds of winning are much lower! But in order to shorten the distance of these twenty paces and give Zhang Duyan a close blow, this sacrifice is inevitable!

"Okay, Meng Laoqi, Chu Tianya, come here!" Zhang Duyan pretended to be relaxed and generous and smiled, "Just kidding, don't be so nervous." The other brothers who came out with you will all stand there and watch the ceremony. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chu Tianya, Meng De and the others scolded in their hearts again: Okay, you cunning one-eyed, you only asked the two of us to step forward, but the others stayed twenty steps away; There are seven or eight hundred people standing around you like iron bucketsβ€”even if we succeed in one blow, we will inevitably fall into your encirclement, and the best result will be the burning of jade!

But at this point, there is no choice.

Chu Tianya and Meng De walked towards the righteous platform. The other Qingyun Fort Ding Zhuang was surrounded by a group of mountain thieves with knives and guns, blocking the periphery, and they could only stand on tiptoe to see the situation on the righteous platform.

Chu Tianya and Meng De stepped one step at a time and stepped onto the righteous platform. Zhang One-Eyed was always like a hungry tiger hunting for food, and One-Eye watched them approach without blinking.

Xiao Linglong was taking a deep breath, so that her nervous mood was eased a little.

"Master Zhangzhai, we're here." Chu Tianya hugged his fists and bowed to Zhang Duyan, still with that soft and relaxed smile on his face, and said, "This is the master of Meng Zhai, presumably the master of Zhang Zhai is not a stranger, so there is no need to introduce it here, right?" ”

Meng De stepped forward, smiled coldly and hugged a fist.

"Well said, well said." Zhang Duyan got up from the tiger skin chair lazily, grinned, raised his chin and pointed his nostrils at the two, and said in an urn voice, "Yes, they are all very courageous." I, Zhang, have been in the country for many years, and I haven't seen anyone like you. ”

"Master Zhang Zhai laughed." Chu Tianya smiled indifferently, "Today is the day of reconciliation between Monk Cave and Qingyun Castle, and it is also a good day for the two of them to marry Jinlan. Chu, congratulations first! ”

Zhang smiled one-eyedly and raised his hand - "Please!" ”

He asked Meng De to stand side by side with him in front of the incense platform.

"Brother Zhang, please!" Meng De was not ambiguous, and took a step forward to stand side by side with him.

In contrast, Zhang One-Eye is like an adult black bear, his body is a circle larger than Meng De, and he is also half a head taller.

At this time, Chu Tianya's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated. glanced at Xiao Linglong next to her, her face was already a little red from nervousness, and the fists in her right hand were so clenched that the joints turned white.

At this time, a little minions came over with a tray with a pot of wine, two bowls and two daggers on the plate, which Zhang and Meng used to make blood.

"Meng Laoqi, the two of us have been fighting for so many years, and each side has suffered countless casualties." Zhang Duyan said leisurely, "Originally, Zhang had a deep hatred of blood, and he had to take revenge." But for the sake of our own brothers, I would like to reconcile with you today and become brothers, and the two sides will fight from now on! ”

"Brother Zhang is so righteous. This Qingyun Castle is your ancestral business, and it should be returned to you now. From today onwards, Meng De is willing to lead the horse and fall into the stirrups for Brother Zhang, only asking Brother Zhang to treat the old and young women of Qingyun Castle well. ”

While the two of them were talking nonsense and nonsense, they were beating drums quickly in their hearts and ready to go.

What Zhang Duyan thought about was to deal with Meng De and this group of unarmed lambs to be slaughtered as quickly as possible, occupy the gate of Qingyun Castle, and prevent them from leaving the gate of the fortress again. If the blow fails, it will startle the snake and fall into a scuffle, and the gate is very likely to be closed.

Meng De thought even more simply, just looked at his throat and the toad eye, and quickly calculated the move and the next step in his heart, hoping to hit with one blow!

"Two village masters, please drink blood!" When the little minions said this, their voices trembled a little.

"What are you shaking, it's useless!" Zhang stretched out his hand with a big grin, and was about to get the dagger on the plate. Meng De's heart tightened, and he quickly stretched out his hand to get another dagger.

"Slow!" Chu Tianya, who was on the side, suddenly shouted.

The nerves of everyone present were already very nervous, and at this time, all of them were neatly shaken, and they couldn't help but break out in a layer of cold sweat.

"What are you yelling about!" Zhang Duyan was also startled, and shouted angrily after retracting his hand.

Chu Tianya stepped forward, stood between Meng De and Zhang Duyan, and said with a smile: "With such a heavy etiquette, how can no one preside over the procedure?" Chu is a middleman, so how about I preside over it? ”

Everyone present took a long breath in unison!

Nervous!!

"You're really troublesome." Zhang Duyan snorted impatiently, "Just let it be!" ”

"Alright, let's get started." Chu Tianya smiled slightly, took the tray in the hand of the little minions, stood in front of the incense platform decently, recalled the scene when he married Meng De last night, and said loudly, "The sky is above, the earth is below, and there are two heroes of Xishan Zhang and Meng today......

Chu Tianya's mouth opened, but it was endless, like a surging river. Zhang Duyan was extremely impatient when he heard it, "Are you okay?" ”

Mengde's nerves did not relax at all. He knew that Chu Tianya was deliberately delaying time at this time, in order to wear down Zhang Duyan's patience and let him relax his vigilance, so that he could find the best chance to kill with one blow!

"Please bow down and kiss the blood!" Speaking of this, Chu Tianya took a step forward and handed the tray to the two of them.

Meng De and Zhang Duyan both stared at the two daggers on the tray. They are all in a stalemate, waiting for the other party to kneel down first.

"Well, the two village masters...... What are you ......" Chu Tianya saw that neither of them would kneel first, so he pretended to be confused.

"What a hassle!" Zhang Duyan scolded impatiently, bent his body slightly, and made a gesture to kneel down.

At the same time, Meng De also leaned forward slightly and made a kneeling action.

At this moment, the plate in Chu Tianya's hand suddenly flipped over and hit Zhang Duyan's face!

Meng De had already prepared, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed a dagger thrown from the tray at the moment when the white horse passed by, and stabbed at Zhang One-eye's head that was already slightly lowered like lightning, and stuck straight into the toad's eye!

The three of them stood very close, and although Zhang Duyan was on guard, the wine in the bowl spilled out first and spilled into his eyes. Out of instinctive reaction, he turned his head, closed his eyes, and reached out to block it!

Therefore, Meng De's knife did not stab him in the eye, but slashed his palm-the three fingers of Qi Brush flew up!

"Straight sissy thief! them!! ”

After being injured, Zhang Duyan reacted very quickly, retreated to the back with a jump, covered his hands and screamed loudly!

This scene happened so suddenly that even those present did not react for a while.

It deserved to be Zhang Duyan's life, and he didn't have time to think about it, he jumped back a few steps and landed in front of Xiao Linglong.

"Poof!"

With a muffled sound of a knife and dagger breaking flesh, the flying knife that Xiao Linglong had held in her hand for a long time pierced into Zhang Duyan's waist!

The set of armor on Zhang Duyan's body wrapped all the vital points on his body extremely tightly, only this waist left a soft wear that was convenient for the armor-piercing person to fight on the horse-Xiao Linglong had seen this kind of thing a lot, so he knew its weakness!

With a knife, blood splattered three feet!

Xiao Linglong's face was like a peach blossom, and suddenly a blood mist dyed her into a flower face pockmark.

"Stinky!!" Zhang Duyan was completely crazy, and he roared angrily and hit Xiao Linglong with an elbow with his backhand. Xiao Linglong shrank her head and dodged lightly. Zhang Duyan kicked out immediately, and Xiao Linglong, who had just dodged weakly, couldn't dodge, so she had to reluctantly reach out to block it. And it is expected that Zhang One-eyed is infinitely powerful, Xiao Linglong blocked his kick, but he was still kicked away directly by a kick!

At that moment, Xiao Linglong felt as if her arm was about to break inch by inch!

It's also a shame that she has already practiced a good light body kung fu, and her reaction is not slow, and she endured the severe pain and borrowed the strength, she flipped in the air like a spirit fox, and wiped it to the side of a stunned thief next to her, and there was an extra Pu knife in her hand!

Chu Tianya and Meng De couldn't help but be frightened when they saw this, so they didn't care about killing Zhang with one eye. Meng De still had a dagger in his hand, and Chu Tianya was simply bare-handed. At this time, the nearby bandits also reacted, rushed over to protect Zhang Duyan, and raised their knives to slash at the three of them!

The men and bandits of Qingyun Castle in the audience also fought closely. The whole scene was suddenly like a drop of water falling into a pot of boiling oil, and it exploded!
