Chapter 17: The Night Rain Makes Noise
The raindrops are continuous, full of murderous energy, and one of the brocade guards is the first to make a move!
This person is a well-known good hand in the brocade guard, the official to thousands of households, a person who practices outside, a body of steel and iron bones, just fierce people, fierce to the extreme, people are also like this, straight to the point, because the name Russell, so people give the nickname Iron Luo.
Although Russell is even fierce on the outside, his invincible fists and feet are invincible, although everyone says that people who practice outside are consuming their lives, but their cultivation will never be as good as those who practice inside, but Russell doesn't think so, as long as I am strong enough, my defense is strong enough, no matter how fast you are, no matter how many tricks you have, hit me with ten punches, I don't have a, I slap you, and you burp directly.
But Russell's strongest thing is his knife skills. Because since he was a child, his father, who is his master in martial arts, in order not to let him lose at the starting line, let Russell learn a lot of martial arts types, knives, guns, sticks, whips, hammers, and grasps, and let Russell learn everything he can learn.
Then Russell became an all-rounder, but none of them were fine, plus Jinyiwei paid attention to strength, if you don't have strength, you are a dog, you can only run errands, Liu Jing relied on his superior martial arts to get mixed with the head of Jinyi Weinanzhen.
Russell finally couldn't wait, there would be evil thoughts with **, and Russell also came up with two mountains on his head, one was Liu Jing, and the other was his father. If you bring down Liu Jing, you have to surpass his martial arts, and Russell has always respected his father, as long as his father is there, it is impossible for him to abandon Quan Jingyi, and it is almost impossible for him to surpass Liu Jing if he is not proficient in a martial arts. So Russell's father didn't let Russell lose at the starting line, and Russell didn't let his father lose at the finish line, so he found a way to get his father to drive to the west.
After that, Russell desperately specialized in knife skills, because he wanted to be in the position, and he didn't want to be called by people like a dog like now, with this belief, he didn't want to have something to achieve! It can also be regarded as a new height in knife skills.
But in terms of all-rounder, he ran too early, so he is still called like a dog, the only thing that has changed is that he has been called more, and this mission is for a person who never dared to dream of it to personally ask him to do it, and even Ji Gang doesn't know.
So Russell can't help but work hard, if this mission is completed well, it is possible to soar, he didn't dare to waste this opportunity, so Russell made a move.
As the name suggests, thirty-six Tiangang, seventy-two earthly evil, Russell's knife contains one hundred and eight changes, he wants to block all the opponent's retreats, he wants to kill him with one move, so that this person who looks down on him and looks down on Jinyiwei will have a different head.
In an instant, Russell rushed in front of Qiao Luming in front of the rain curtain, and where he passed, the shack actually collapsed completely.
Russell entered, Qiao Luming retreated, Russell is the lightning of radical training, Qiao Luming is the silky rain, the knife light of the Tiangang Knife Method is dense like stars, but it can't stop the ethereal rain traces. Qiao Luming stepped a little under his feet, and peeked into the gap from it, his figure was like a catkins swaying in the wind, flashing, and directly floated out three feet away, leaving the range of Russell's sword light.
Russell's attack failed, but his figure skyrocketed again, the embroidered spring knife in his hand flipped over, the trend was more urgent, his footsteps moved, and he actually jumped up, twisted his waist, and actually used the move of lying on the ground in the air, but Russell didn't expect Qiao Luming to turn back halfway, bring out a white light, pass by him, and then run away at a faster speed than the other brocade guards behind him.
The thunder shook the sky, but the downpour could not extinguish the anger in Russell's heart, because he felt that he was being despised or even ignored.
So Russell turned his anger into strength, and before his feet fell on the roof, he turned around and moved quickly, and the embroidered spring knife turned into a sword light in the sky, and directly took Qiao Luming's head.
But Qiao Luming didn't dodge, because Russell's knife had fallen on the roof with a 'bang', and Russell himself knelt on the roof with a 'plop', staring at his wrist, full of disbelief!
Because there was a blood-colored mark as thin as a hair on his right wrist at this time, this subtle wound would not hurt the muscles and bones, but Russell himself knew in his heart that it was not that the masked man couldn't do it, but that he didn't want to waste himself, so he just scratched his skin in a warning nature and clicked his acupoint!
This seems to be a light technique, but it is ten times more difficult than cutting off Russell directly, when will the masked man move? Russell didn't see Qiao Luming draw his weapon from beginning to end!
Qiao Luming didn't have time to care about Russell, because he saw that the nine brocade guards in front of him actually put their knives back into their sheaths, turned their backhands, and took out their pocket crossbow arrows from under the flying fish suit and aimed them at Qiao Luming, who was flying by. No matter how good Qiao Luming's body technique is, no matter how good his martial arts are, he doesn't dare to confront so many crossbow arrows head-on, after all, no matter how fast his body is, it is impossible to be faster than crossbow arrows.
But it can be faster than the person who shoots the arrow, so Qiao Luming not only did not slow down, but increased his speed, and with his backhand, there was already an extra white light, which was the soft knife he hid on his waist!
The nine brocade guards originally wanted to use Russell's skills to solve this person, but they didn't want to just fight in the blink of an eye, Russell had already lost, so everyone gave up hand-to-hand combat, took crossbow arrows, and shot the incoming person!
This bow and crossbow is carefully developed by the craftsmen of the imperial court, although the size is small, the power is not bad, it is not an exaggeration to wear gold cracked stones, and it also imitates the design of the Zhuge crossbow of the Three Kingdoms, but the imitation is not in place, and it can only be loaded with two arrows at a time, but even so, nine people, nine bows and crossbows, there are also eighteen arrows, plus the time to change the arrow box is simply a blink of an eye, nine people take turns to shoot, it is completely possible to do no gap, seal all the lives of Qiao Luming. In addition, the arrows are highly poisonous, and they will die if they touch it! It can be said to be Jinyiwei's biggest killer.
As for whether the crossbow arrow will shoot Russell behind Qiao Luming, who cares? Commander Ji Gang gave a death order, in order to complete the task, he did not hesitate, this did not hesitate, including Russell, of course. So they didn't hesitate to pull down the bolt firing mechanism.
The sound of the arrow is sharp, cutting through the water droplets falling in the air, like fingertips provoking the strings, making a crisp sound, trembling and trembling! The bowstring is also like a string, still trembling, but the arrow has already reached the door of Qiao Lumingmian!
Qiao Luming's eyes flashed fiercely, and with a flick of the soft knife in his hand, the sword light flashed, forming a shield that emitted white light, and it was like an oil-paper umbrella that was opened. But no matter how heavy the rain is, it can't break through the barrier of the umbrella. In an instant, Qiao Luming had already shot down all the arrows!
The "buzzing" bowstring sounded again, and the thunder echoed, and the flying arrows were accompanied by a blinding thunderous light. Enveloped Qiao Luming again, Qiao Luming's figure swept out of the air like a moth, knowing that the fire was fast, but he did not hesitate and threw himself away!
The thunder came suddenly, and it went quickly, and the world fell into darkness again, but the sword light rose again, like a swimming snake in the darkness, flying endlessly. The letter of the spirit snake is the sword, and the dragonfly is a little bit on the arrow, although the arrow was not shot down, but it was slightly off, just rubbing Qiao Luming's clothes and flying over, exactly the same!
The eyes of the nine brocade guards were horrified, what kind of eyes and sword skills did they have to be able to use so many swift arrows so accurately? And how powerful this arrow is, they know very well, the power is no less than the secret weapon issued by a hidden weapon master. Just when they thought that Qiao Luming was going to rush into the crowd to kill, they saw that Qiao Luming's figure was abrupt, but he was already on tiptoe, and he turned into the small alley between the shacks, like clouds and mist in the mountains, and when the breeze blew, he had disappeared. The nine brocade guards waited for a moment, until the thunder started again, and they didn't see Qiao Luming appear.
When Qiao Luming reappeared, he was already in a shack a hundred meters away, although the distance was close, but in the dark night of pouring rain, it was almost impossible to find a person in such a dense shack area! Qiao Luming waited intently, half a cup of tea passed, and made sure that no one was approaching, so he dispersed the internal force in the dantian, and a mouthful of black blood gushed out of his throat and spit it out.
It seemed to be resolved just now, but Qiao Luming was definitely uncomfortable, and when he avoided Russell's Tiangang Knife Technique, Qiao Luming used his internal force to resist Russell once, not wanting this guy's strength to be so great, and without prevention, Qiao Luming had already suffered a dark loss. But what really made Qiao Luming retreat was the two rounds of arrows later, the crossbow arrows seemed to be light, but the strength was amazing, and the archers also attached internal force to the arrows. Although Qiao Luming relied on skills and internal force to resolve it, but the dantian has been shaken upside down, if you don't get rid of this breath in time, I'm afraid it will not be easy for the rest of your life!
Seeing Qiao Luming appear, Jinyiwei naturally had a task for them, and they also knew in their hearts that this masked man's martial arts were very high, but it was not so easy to annihilate them! But it's not impossible. On the other hand, if the masked man were to run, it was not something they could intercept.
"Luo Qianhu, what should I do now!" These brocade guards looked as usual, walked up to Russell's side, and helped Russell unlock the acupuncture points.
Russell also understands in his heart that Jinyiwei does things just to complete the task, except for the emperor, anyone can be killed, including Ji Gang, the head of Jinyiwei, if these people and Russell's situation are reversed today, Russell will not hesitate to deduct the transmitter of the crossbow arrow.
So Russell is very bland, not at all like a person who has just come around from the Ghost Gate, but this is Jinyiwei, "Complete the task first, find what Commander Ji said, as for the masked man just now, I will make plans after reporting to Commander Ji!" ”
"Yes!" The other nine Jinyi guards didn't speak again, this thing of sycophants, you have to shoot with people with butts, Russell is only a thousand households at most, and he was only suddenly appointed a few days ago, although he is also an official, but in Jinyiwei, all the positions with real power are held by Ji Gang's henchmen, and Nanzhen Fusi has Liu Jing's grasp. It can be said that if Jinyiwei wants to pat himself on the back, then only the leader of Jinyiwei Ji Gang, or the sycophant of Zhu Di, the emperor of Yongle on the spot! But in front of Zhu Di, who dares to slap the sycophants?
When the others walked away, a sneer rose at the corner of Russell's mouth: "This Hangzhou is getting more and more interesting!" ”
He likes the chaos in Hangzhou, because the more chaotic it is, the more opportunities he has to make meritorious contributions, and the more opportunities he will naturally get appreciated by that big man, Ji Gang? Ji Gang is a fart!
After Qiao Luming adjusted his internal strength, his eyes also showed a look of surprise, and the most famous method of external practice is undoubtedly the eighteen bronze men of Shaolin, and ordinary knives and guns are not afraid at all. But Russell's method of external practice is also restrained, just like an inner master breaking a boulder in the chest on the street!
This feeling is very strange, there is a feeling of imbalance between yin and yang, according to Qiao Luming's experience, there is only one kind of person who will have this strange internal force, that is, the Yellow Gate, which is often referred to as a eunuch, but how can a eunuch get mixed into the Jinyi Guard?
