Chapter 257: The Raid of the Would-be Bandits
The wind came very suddenly that night.
A few days after the forces of the Gangbuk Province Martial Arts League gathered at the designated location, a belated gale began to sweep across the coast of Tongnan Province.
Strong winds accompanied by heavy rain, for two days, the water level of the Yangtze River rose in a straight line.
Heavy rain poured down and the wind howled.
The rain finally stopped after two days of rain, but the wind was still blowing.
The only waist-high earthen dam on the coastline's first line of defense has been swallowed up by the soaring sea level, which has risen by more than a meter in just a few hours.
It cannot be said that the officials of Tongnan Province did not act and made the seaside embankment useless. The shallow beach of the Yellow Sea is too long, and the tide rises and falls, and there can be a muddy land at least twenty miles long.
In Binhai, there is no need to worry about any big waves rushing into the people's villages. Even if it is a big tide that occurs once in more than ten years, it will not be fierce.
The tide goes out, and even the house does not damage a few rooms. As for the crops close to the sea...... That would be even more pointless. Even the land on the seashore is salty, and the people who live by the sea may have to run to the high ground more than ten miles away if they want to plant a piece of land.
Therefore, the people near the coastline almost do not rely on farming to make a living, and usually weave nets and fish. If it weren't for the appearance of the Japanese Bandits, this was the time for them to go to sea.
Huangyan Slope is a high slope pushed by the waves in the offshore area, with a height of about thirty or forty meters, and it is a rare farmland by the sea.
In the past, the Loess Slope was the farthest point of the coastline, and unless it was a major tide once every ten years, the sea would never overflow here.
Liu Jiannan and Ning looked at their feet, the sea water had entered the villages near the sea, and the original wasteland road had been completely submerged by the sea water.
"Master Ning, did you say that the Japanese will come this time?"
"If that Juggernaut didn't lie to us, he should come back. With the big tides, this is their best chance. ”
"It's a good fortification to dig the Tuyin Gate...... Not only hidden, but also ventilated. It's not boring to hide in there!"
"That's nature, when the Japanese come and let you see the art of our Tuyin Gate, that's the real killing move. ”
"The Japanese invaders slaughtered my Fog Shadow Gate and robbed the Fog Shadow Gate's secret martial arts, and we must not let one go this time. The mastery of the Fog Shadow Gate must not fall into the hands of this group of pirates. Liu Jiannan said angrily.
"They, at best, they've only scratched the surface. Master Ning sneered and pursed his mouth, "Since you have the heart to reopen the Fog Shadow Gate, I won't break the rules with you." Do you know why we're so opposed to your inheritance of the Mistshadow Gate?"
"Because I'm not a disciple of the Fog Shadow Sect?"
"Yes and no, the root cause. The same root and same origin of the Five Hidden Sects is not a casual talk, but the same root and the same origin in the real sense, and what the Five Hidden Doors practice is actually the same set of exercises.
It's just that because of the limited manpower and limited qualifications, the exercises are divided into five people to cultivate, and because of this, the five hidden doors are separated. In fact, the Five Hidden Sects should have been united a long time ago, maybe one day a brilliant disciple will appear and be able to cultivate the martial arts of the Five Hidden Sects at the same time?"
"The martial arts of the Five Hidden Sects are of the same origin and I have heard Yong'er say it, but ...... But I really didn't know that the Five Hidden Sects were cultivating the same set of martial arts......"
"Do you think it's the magic of the water? hehehe...... No, that set of martial arts is passed down by word of mouth at the Wuyin Gate, and it cannot be obtained unless the head of the house. When the head of Jiang was suddenly killed, we thought that the mastery of the Five Hidden Sects was going to be broken. I didn't expect ...... This is a blessing in disguise. ”
"Master, there's movement, it seems to be a Japanese ship-"
Suddenly, a disciple poked a head out of the earthen wall and said.
Master Ning's face changed, his figure flashed, Liu Jiannan didn't know how he disappeared, anyway, there was no trace of Master Ning in front of him.
The wind is howling, northeastward.
Ten large ships approached the coastline in a fierce wind. The sea is still rising. Normally, such a large ship would not have been able to get so close to the shoreline.
But with the help of this big tide, the big ship approached like a dark cloud.
"Inform the lord of Liuzhuang behind him that the Japanese are coming-" Master Ning shouted to a disciple, and the disciple did not hesitate for a moment, and quickly disappeared into Huangyanpo and ran in the direction of the large army behind him.
Outside the city of Tongdong, ten miles of village. Villages and towns washed by heavy rain look muddy. Especially after more than 10,000 martial arts heroes were hidden here, the whole village seemed even more messy.
All the people on the eastern outskirts of Tongdong City were dispersed by them into the county seat of Tongdong. Lu Sheng's request was that there could not be a single common person in the entire east of Tongdong City.
Liu Shengyan stood quietly on the eaves of a house. The oncoming sea breeze has a slight fishy smell. They were assembled here when the great wind blew, and they were drenched in torrential rains, and ate the sea breeze, and how much they suffered.
Although the heroes of the rivers and lakes have no complaints, they are not very comfortable in their hearts. Now that the water level has risen, if the Japanese really take advantage of this big tide, then it should be news from Huangyanpo, right?
Just when Liu Shengyan was a little worried, a fast horse in the distance stepped on a muddy country road and galloped quickly.
Seeing someone coming, Liu Shengyan's eyes suddenly lit up, his figure flashed, and the person had turned into a goshawk and rushed towards the fast horse.
"Lord Liuzhuang, the Japanese Kou, the Japanese are here. ”
"Go back and rest, brethren, cheer up and the pirates are coming!"
After waiting for so many days, the wind and rain were blowing, and finally the Japanese came here. The martial arts heroes who got the news were all holding their breath. The disciples of the Tuyin Sect seem to know the immortal method one by one. With a turn of the body, the person burrowed into the depths of the earth like a spinning top.
Away from the Fire Gate, Benlei Gate and a group of martial arts people all hid in the house.
News came from the Huangyan Slope that the would-be wouldn't be in an hour at most.
"The Japanese are coming!" In Xingren County, Lu Sheng also received information.
"Duan Fei, I'll leave it to you here, I'll go over there and have a look. Lu Sheng stood up and said lightly.
"Didn't you say that we should guard Xingren's official road?"
"But I always felt a little uneasy, we counted all the when, where, and route of the Japanese attack, but ...... We don't yet know the strength of the Wakos.
Judging from the three Japanese robbers encountered in Tongnan City, the strength of the Japanese is not bad at all. Moreover, 5,000 children were abducted fifteen years ago, and after fifteen years of training, their martial arts are probably not low at all. ”
"Okay, leave it to me here, you can go with confidence. ”
"Can you speak human language?"
I waited patiently for an hour, but the team of the Japanese had not yet arrived. This made the heads of the Five Hidden Sects mutter. Is it overestimating the speed of the Japanese army? It stands to reason that the Japanese only have two hours, and even if Huangyanpo was discovered relatively early, it is impossible that it has not been here for so long.
While everyone was muttering, at the end of the wilderness in the east, a group of blackened human heads began to appear above the horizon.
The Woko are coming.
All black clothes and masks, all running postures.
All of them were bent over, their right hands resting on the hilt of their swords at their waists, like a flock of roosters running fast in the field.
Liu Shengyan raised his hand slightly, and a group of martial arts people appeared from the hidden corner, fighting in a row.
When they saw that someone was intercepting in front, instead of stopping, they accelerated their charge.
"Throw—"
Liu Shengyan gave an order, and one by one wooden barrels were thrown from the hands of the martial arts heroes to the Japanese invaders.
"Uhhh
The front of the Japanese Kou took out the knife, the knife flashed, the knife qi was vertical and horizontal, and most of the wooden barrels were cut in half by the sword qi in the air. Countless jet-black waters, sprinkled like ink.
"There are three thousand pirates...... And sure enough, all of them are masters!" Lu Sheng, who had already arrived, stood not far away and looked at this group of would-be robbers. It's just that every widow is dressed in the same attire, so it's impossible to tell who is the leader and who is the minion.
"Kill, leave no one behind—" The Woko charged at a rapid pace after dodging the barrel attack, as if no matter what the world, there was only one tactic for them. Rush, rush, rush!
"Disciple of the Fire Gate, on-"
As soon as Liu Shengyan's voice fell, a group of disciples from the Fire Sect suddenly rushed out of the corner, their exercises were very peculiar, they could shoot flames from the void with their internal force.
Several flames burst out, igniting the oil in the barrel. The flames touched the oil, and with a bang, a raging fire was a foot high.
Flames are not meant to kill, and ordinary flames do not hurt martial arts masters very much. But people have a natural fear of flames, and when they see the flames suddenly rising, normal people will be paused.
But the Japanese on the other side seemed to be a group of machines, and the moment the flames burst out, their speed became faster.
The sword flashed, and the wall of fire shattered like rags.
The Flame Leaving Disciples behind the Fire Wall obviously hadn't expected such a situation. The moment the flames shattered, the pirates were already approaching in front of them.
Just about to perform the exercises, the moment when the whole body was wrapped in flames. The sword qi has already swept through like a gale.
"Thorn-"
A sound like a tearing rag exploded, and seven or eight disciples from the Fire Gate were instantly split by the sword qi.
At this moment, the martial arts heroes present understood what it meant to be cruel and cruel.
The Japanese are a group of killing machines, and their sword energy is the harvester of life.
Liu Shengyan's eyes were cold, he knew that just with the little tricks he thought of before, he was afraid that he would not be able to stop the widows. The only ones who could resist the charge of the Japanese were their group of masters of the Innate Realm.
The masters of the Five Hidden Sects and the various sects also realized this problem, and they all walked out of the bunker and came to Liu Shengyan's side. Looking at the would-be robbers rushing like a flood, a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the disciples behind him.
"We are inseparable from the Japanese Invaders!
Liu Shengyan took the lead, and many masters surged. A group of martial arts heroes led by Liu Shengyan turned into a sharp cone and stabbed fiercely into the team of Japanese robbers.
Jingle Bell –
The rush of the Japanese was finally blocked for the first time.
Once Liu Shengyan and the others blocked the edge of the Japanese Invaders, the disciples of the various factions behind him immediately made up for it and fought with the Japanese Invaders.
But it is obvious that the Japanese are well-trained, but the martial arts are fighting on their own.
Luo Tian Mist——
A coquettish shout sounded, Gai Ying and Jiang Yong suddenly converged, and the two of them cast the Luo Tian Mist at the same time, and in an instant, the ten zhang range around them was engulfed in the mist.
"Benlei Sect disciple, hurry-" Gai Ying hurriedly shouted.
"Here, Ben Lei Zhu—"
Countless electric lights exploded, forming a brilliant power grid in the mist. The fierce knife of the Japanese was suddenly frozen. The power grid of this thunder pillar will paralyze all the Japanese in the covered area.
"Plop, plop, puff—"
The disciples of the Tuyin Sect underground suddenly rushed out, and their sharp daggers slashed through the throats of one by one......
