Chapter Twenty-Six: Demons!

In the city of Taizhou, a group of panicked people ran around, dodging the rolling stones and fireballs that fell into the city, the exclamations of women and the crying of children came and went, making a mess, and there was a young man about twenty years old in this group of people, running back and forth in the streets and alleys of Dongcheng, he was always surrounded by four teenagers, two men and two women, although they were dressed like ordinary people, but there was no tension and anxiety in their eyes, and their skills were not bad, and they could easily dodge fireballs and stray arrowsThe needle of the compass shook a few times and pointed in one direction, the young man looked in the direction of the pointer, only to see a dozen raged beggars squatting on the corner of the street, one of them covered his ears and stared at his eyes, and muttered nonsense that others could not understand, the young man snorted coldly and glanced at the four teenagers around him, and the four of them rushed up with a nod, and quickly covered the beggar with a sack, carried it and left, although the beggar next to him was very surprised, but he didn't get up to ask, just watched a few people leave in confusion.

Soon, the five people entered a courtyard where no one was around, and as soon as the sack was thrown into the middle of the courtyard, the beggars inside rolled out, staring at the few people who surrounded him, their faces were full of panic, and several people ignored him, and they took out exquisite small swords from their sleeves one after another, and the young man in the lead gave an order to "set up the formation" , Several people immediately danced the small sword in their hands and turned around the beggar, and there were words in their mouths, and then an invisible pressure was formed in the beggar's brain, the beggar covered his head and roared loudly in pain, snot and saliva were left out, and after a while, the five people suddenly stopped at the same time, putting on different sword postures, and the short sword in the hand of the leading young man stretched forward and shouted, "Demon! A piece of white light shot out from the short sword and did not enter the back of the beggar's head, only to hear a piercing scream from the back of the beggar's head, which quickly disappeared, and after the screech, the beggar's eyes suddenly lost their look, and he fell to the ground.

Seeing this, several people immediately put away their short swords, tidied up their clothes and walked out of the courtyard to the street, one of the young girls asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, this is already the sixth we have disposed of, presumably the other senior brothers and sisters have also dealt with a lot, this time the demon seems to be different from the previous one, and can divide himself into so many distractions"

The young man in the lead didn't reply, looked at the compass in his hand, and then looked at the battle situation on the city tower in the distance, frowned and said, "It's too bad, the remaining one is not in the city, it should be in the army that is fighting in front, and looking at the compass's reaction, it should be the strongest distraction of this demon."

The others were shocked. One of the teenagers said, "It's all because we came at the wrong time, just in time for the day they attacked the city, senior brother, it's a big matter to eliminate demons, but the sect has explained that we can't intervene in the mortal battle, and we can't easily reveal the magic in the mortal world, how should this be good?"

The young man who led the team stood in place and looked at the fiery city wall that was being fought in the distance, and finally said helplessly, "Meet with the other fellow men first, and then make plans" Several other people replied, "Yes, "As soon as everyone turned around, they ran towards the city in the opposite direction."

There are more than a dozen such groups in Taizhou City, each group is five or six people, led by the elder brothers, very purposeful, and the means are very neat to deal with the evil demons they say, and the people who have been removed from the demons are all like beggars, falling to the ground and not waking up, and even some people are foaming at the mouth on the ground, constantly convulsing, these people only care about their own business, this war seems to have nothing to do with them at all.

Under the city wall in the east of the city, Ma Xiao, who was carrying the wounded soldiers like a machine, was already sweating profusely, and the casualties of the Pei army were getting bigger and bigger, but the miscellaneous servants who saved people under the city were getting fewer and fewer, and the officers guarding couldn't manage it at all, and there was no one on the city tower to go down the wounded soldiers, it seemed that they were too busy to fight with the Pei army, but there were people who came down from the steps by themselves, one by one either missing arms and legs, or full of arrows, Ma Xiao returned from the infirmary, picked up a wounded soldier and walked to the infirmary, just took a few steps and a loud roar sounded on the city tower" Attack - city - artillery!" , and then seemed to respond to this roar, and another huge roar exploded at the city gate, and countless bricks on the city wall were suddenly shaken down, and the soldiers on the top of the city gate were knocked down again, and the already crumbling city gate finally couldn't hold on, and fell down violently, this city gate was made of hard red iron wood, covered with iron sheets, and weighed thousands of pounds, more than a dozen soldiers who didn't have time to withdraw were instantly pressed under the heavy city gate, and even screamed for their lives, Ma Xiao was prepared to not fall down this time, but his ears were still screaming by the sound of cannons, and his chest was uncomfortable。

After the city gate collapsed, but a few breaths of time, the soldiers on both sides poured into the city gate cave at the same time to fight, the soldiers inside and outside the city all gathered to the four-zhang wide city gate, like two torrents that finally found the vent mouth collided, and suddenly stirred up the stormy waves, the two sides poured arrows mercilessly through the narrow city gate hole, a large number of people fell, the people behind hurriedly made up, the casualties increased sharply, the killing cry outside the city also spread to the city through this hole at this time, people who don't know thought that the Chu army had been killed into the city, and a group of timid miscellaneous servants left the wounded soldiers to run into the city。

Ma Xiaoke didn't have time to watch the excitement, he carried the stretcher and continued to carry the wounded who fell, but there were many wounded soldiers who couldn't lift it at all, several infirmaries were soon overcrowded, and the medical officers were also busy with dizziness, from the city gate to the infirmary There were wailing wounded soldiers all the way, Ma Xiao gradually calmed down, it seemed that the more chaotic the situation, he was more sober, he began to select seriously injured soldiers to send to the infirmary, and after sending them, he also helped the medical officer treat the wounds of the wounded, pull out arrow clusters, sprinkle gold sore medicine, Tie a tourniquet, under the repeated demonstration of the doctor, Ma Xiao is also learning and selling, the more he does, the more skilled he becomes, and he becomes a half-hung medical officer in less than half an hour.

。。。。。。

There is a mountain more than 20 miles away from the east side of Taizhou City, because the shape of the mountain is like a hat with a point, the people in the city call it Jianmao Mountain, just when the siege of Taizhou is in full swing, there is a group of people on Jianmao Mountain who are observing the battle situation from afar, this group of people are wearing gray-white sheepskin jackets, dark skin, slender eyes, all kinds of braids on their heads, and Pei, Chu, Chen, Dai people from these countries have a big gap in dress and appearance, in this group of people there is a great figure, The man with a dignified appearance, wearing a black big ao, all the people around him faintly looked at his horse's head, obviously the leader of this group of people, the black man put his hands in his sleeves at the moment, standing on a high place and squinting at Taizhou City, I don't know what he was thinking, a woman in white mink came forward and said, "Third brother, you just saw the power of the siege cannon, this is a good opportunity, when will we do it" The woman's accent was also exotic.

The black man turned his head and glanced at the woman and said, "Don't worry, the time has not yet come, let the warriors fill the tiger's belly first, and then do it when they are full of wine and food."

"Yes" The woman nodded and went down the mountain with her back to the side of Taizhou City, walked a distance and blew a long whistle towards the bottom of the mountain, and immediately returned a whistle under the mountain, and then a group of similarly dressed aliens appeared from the woods, and there were also tall horses, this group of people were all carrying bows and arrows, holding weapons, and there were more than 5,000 alien troops hidden on the small pointed hat mountain.

。。。。。。

Just when Ma Xiao was busy in the chaos, a chief led a team of soldiers to run over and shouted, "The city gate is about to be unguarded, except for the medical officer, all those who can be changed are going to guard the city gate with Lao Tzu" The officer's order is absolute, a group of miscellaneous servants and the head of the soldiers gave up the wounded soldiers to the city gate when they mentioned the weapons that had been prepared on the main street for a long time, no one dared to slack off, this is a battle of life and death, if the city gate can not be saved, no one can run when the army comes in, and the soldiers who were originally slightly injured also rushed to the city gate with their weapons, as if they have the determination to live and die with the city.

Finally at this moment, Ma Xiao remembered that the boss of the gang had said to him that the leader of the gang did not have to fight with the enemy, but as long as the enemy entered the door, it was the time to fight desperately, and he did not go to the main street to get weapons, because since Wei Chao reminded him to sharpen the knife, the baby Yanling knife was carried with him, ready for this moment at any time, before going out, he seemed to suddenly think of something, turned around and swept his eyes among the injured soldiers, and finally stared at a thin and small body, Shi Chang, who was wearing a copper helmet, rushed forward to untie his helmet and tied it to his head, the helmet was a little bigger, but it was better than nothing, this Shi Chang was hit by a boulder, and he was unconscious in the hospital at the moment, and he didn't know that someone had untied his copper helmet, otherwise he would have been furious, Ma Xiao had a copper helmet on his head, holding a Yanling knife, and rushed to the city gate with a group of miscellaneous servants and wounded soldiers.

As soon as I arrived at the city gate, Ma Xiao was startled, the city gate fell down for less than half an hour, the city gate hole actually stacked a high mountain of corpses, the door hole flowed out of the river of blood, countless soldiers who came to attack the city gate rushed inward like a tide, they were surrounded to climb the corpse mountain, stepping on the corpses of the predecessors and fighting with the Chu army on the opposite side, the people crowded in front of them couldn't retreat if they wanted to, both sides were killed at the moment, roared, The screams were endless, the small city gate hole became a meat grinder, the soldiers on both sides were crowded together, the raindrops of arrows flew overhead, the spears shuttled back and forth between the limbs and flesh, such a dense crowd, the spears never returned empty-handed, every time they stabbed out, they could pierce into the human body, whether it was the enemy's or their own people, the arrows were not missing, a large number of people kept coming down, and the people behind continued to hug the people in front of them while pumping the spears forward.

Ma Xiao, who was wrapped in the crowd, held a Yanling knife, stepped on the corpse under his feet with a deep foot and a shallow foot, and was pushed to the top of the corpse mountain by the people behind him little by little, he felt that there were several hands below desperately grabbing his feet, but the crowd made him unable to see the situation under his feet at all, and he was getting closer and closer to the top of the corpse mountain, his heart was in his throat, his feet were getting weaker and weaker, and his hands began to sweat and tremble, he was afraid, this kind of battle was completely different from the battlefield he knew, in his eyes, this city gate hole was no longer a city gate hole, but a demon that could devour life, and the cold spear shuttling back and forth between the flesh was the teeth of this demon chewing flesh and bloodFinally, in the midst of the screams, Pei Jun, who was lined up in front of Ma Xiao, fell.
