Late-night pursuits

After getting on the road, Ke Yinyue asked Li Jinzhong, "What did you promise your mother-in-law?" Li Jinzhong smiled and didn't answer, touched the box on his waist, and remembered that Granny Xu asked him to talk alone the night before leaving. After thinking for a while, he said to Ke Yinyue: "Mother-in-law asked me to take good care of you." Ke Yinyue rolled her eyes and said, "Mother-in-law, your name?" You're really good at relationships. Li Jinzhong approached Ke Yinyue with a hippie smile and said, "Isn't your mother-in-law my mother-in-law?" Ke Yinyue pushed Li Jinzhong away and said, "Stinky and beautiful." As soon as Ke Yinyue's voice fell, a loud voice rang out: "Can you two be more numb?" Didn't you treat my old iron as a human being? Am I stone or wood? Ke Yinyue's face suddenly turned crimson, and Li Jinzhong was also extremely embarrassed, he really forgot that there was Lao Tie with him at this moment. Li Jinzhong and Ke Yinyue relented a little. After arriving in Zhuozhou, it was already evening. The three of them found a nearby inn, and after a day's walk, all three of them were exhausted, and immediately fell asleep with their heads covered after entering their respective rooms.

When Li Jinzhong woke up, it was still dark, and he was awakened by a rush of footsteps and sporadic fights. Li Jinzhong hurriedly came to the window of the room, opened the window and looked out, only to see the two of them running along the street at the entrance of the inn one after the other. Behind him, several black-clothed men with hats and strange-shaped weapons in their hands chased after him all the way. Just as the two of them ran to the door of the inn, Li Jinzhong saw an extremely familiar figure by the light of the lantern in front of the inn. Although this person has a full beard, he can't hide that delicate face, and he has a big package on his back and I don't know what it contains. Li Jinzhong almost exclaimed. This person is Luo Nanyue, who has not been seen since he left Suning and joined the army for more than two years. Luo Nanyue and his companions swept past the door of the inn quickly, and the pursuers behind them were in hot pursuit, and when the pursuers rushed past the inn, Li Jinzhong quietly opened all the windows of the inn. Turned over and rolled out of the window with a somersault, and at this moment, Li Jinzhong made an incredible move, stared twice with his feet in the air, and his body actually violated the principle of inertia and shot on the roof of the inn in the opposite direction. Then he flipped and leaped all the way along the roof of the inn, hanging behind the men in black. After nearly a quarter of an hour of wild pursuit, the men in black finally surrounded Luo Nanyue and the two, Li Jinzhong saw clearly, there were a total of eight men in black surrounding the two, and a figure who seemed to be the leader stood behind the men in black. At this time, Luo Nanyue had already taken off an iron-tired bow wrapped in cloth on his back before, and the arrows were also attached to the bowstring, and his companion also took down the cloth bag behind him at this time, pulled out three gun barrels, and put them together into a spear. It seems that the two are ready for a desperate fight.

At this time, one of the men in black spoke up: "Don't resist stubbornly, hand over your things, you can save your life, otherwise you will be killed." The man with the spear in his hand said angrily: "I will only hand over this thing to General Qi." Come up if you're not afraid of death. At this point, the two sides were tense, and Ronan Yueji was back to back, carrying the enemy who was surrounded on all sides. The battle was about to break out, at this time, Li Jinzhong on the roof took out a box from his waist, opened the lid of the box and appeared two delicate small crossbows, the crossbow body was only the size of a palm, the string was connected to the handle, and the handle under the crossbow body was more empty than an ordinary crossbow. Li Jinzhong took out the finger-length crossbow arrows in the box, then untied a hidden buckle on the box, divided the box into two pieces, and put the crossbow arrows as close as a box, and then inserted the box into the empty box on the crossbow's body, which was just stuck. Li Jinzhong, who was holding a crossbow in both hands, aimed at the man in black who took the lead.

When the two sides below were facing each other for almost a cup of tea, the black-clothed man who took the lead shouted: "Up" The black-clothed people on all sides immediately rushed up, looking at the agility of these black-clothed people when they started, Li Jinzhong knew that these people were all masters. As soon as the man in black launched, Luo Nanyue's arrow shot out, and the target was directly aimed at the person in front of him, who immediately threw out his long knife, and with a bang, directly shot down Luo Nanyue's arrow. The long knife that shot down the arrow swirled and drew an arc back into the hand of the man in black, this hand is enough to show that this person is a great expert in using knives regularly, this move is off the hand knife, the strength of the throwing knife, the angle of the wrist turn, must be just right. If you don't have more than ten years of experience in using knives, you can't practice this trick. Although this person's knife can be described as superb, but he is facing Luo Nanyue, a master of archery, when this person's knife is back in his hand, the two arrows do not know when they have quietly approached his face. The man was taken aback, he didn't see when Ronanyue's second and third arrows were fired. Hurriedly erected the blade of the knife, only to listen, poofed twice, one arrow hit the blade of the man in black, but the other arrow shot directly into his eyes, and the man in black suddenly fell to the ground. The moment Luo Nanyue hit the other party, he immediately launched a light skill and flew up, heading in the direction of the side, at this time, one swordsman was knocked down by Luo Nanyue, and three more swordsmen chased Luo Nanyue away. On the other side, the other four swordsmen have already exchanged hands with Luo Nanyue's companions, the man's spear dance is impenetrable, the four sword bodies can not get close for the time being, they can only fight on the periphery, Li Jinzhong on the roof did not dare to move at this time, because he felt the fierce momentum on the big man who had not moved, it seemed that he was looking for an opportunity, a chance to kill with one blow, once Luo Nanyue and the two showed their flaws, he would immediately shoot without mercy.

Luo Nanyue rushed around the field, while the other three swordsmen, one in hot pursuit, and the other two kept running towards the direction that Luo Nanyue might change direction, trying to block his escape route, when the swordsman who was chasing Luo Nanyue forced Luo Nanyue into a corner, it was when Luo Nanyue was captured. Luo Nanyue's eyes quickly swept behind him, and he shot arrows with a bow in one go, and the arrows went straight to the knife hand who was chasing him, with the experience of the knife hand who was in the arrow just now, the knife hand immediately flew back and cautiously picked up the arrow with his knife, and then immediately went all out to guard against the arrows that might follow, but this time Luo Nanyue did not shoot three arrows as he did just now, but immediately after shooting an arrow, he immediately reflexively rushed towards the retreating swordsman, and the two swordsmen who were assisting in the defense knew that Luo Nanyue must want to break through from one direction. So they immediately gathered around. And the other swordsman who picked up Luo Nanyue's arrow also rushed forward, trying to shorten the distance between the two companions rushing over, and Luo Nanyue instantly fell into the encirclement.
