752 Happy (Second Watch)
Xiao Tian, who had just received the new tea, blinked inexplicably.
Mu Yan nodded, "That's him." β
Jun Lingxi looked at Xiao Tian again, and asked, "Have you ever killed raw or eaten meat in the past two days?" β
Although Xiao Tian didn't know why, he still thought about it and said, "Does a sparrow count?" β
He couldn't steal too much food in the past two days, so he had to make a slingshot and catch two sparrows to eat, but unfortunately, although the roasted sparrows were fragrant, there were not a few taels of meat.
"Count!" Jun Lingxi was happy.
She knew that she had guessed correctly, that is, someone was secretly killing raw meat, hum, the mother concubine laughed at her just now!
Wuyang also smiled, she knew that Jun Lingxi was still worried about what happened before.
Xiao Tian looked at Jun Lingxi and then at Wuyang, still confused, and said in his heart: The people in the capital are really weird!
Jun Lingxi was in a good mood, watching Xiao Tian eat white steamed buns a little pitiful, and said generously: "Do you want to eat dim sum?" We also have some golden silk date cakes and almond cakes there. β
"Miss Jun, you are such a good person!" Xiao Tian's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded again and again.
Jun Lingxi instructed the maid to go to the wing room where he lived to get snacks, and then looked at Mu Yan again, straightened his chest and said, "Ah Yan, I also learned to ride a horse and shoot with a bow from my father since I was a child!" β
Meaning, she also has to help guard the temple together.
Jun Lingxi originally prepared a full stomach of words to persuade Mu Yan, but Mu Yan only gave one word:
"Okay."
Mu Yan deserves to be so happy because King Jian knows the roots, and he also understands Jun Lingxi's skills, no worse than ordinary men. Now is also a special period, and all the combat power that can be used must be used.
Jun Lingxi's mouth opened slightly, and after being stunned, he smiled, smiled like a flower, and sighed with his palms: "Ah Yan, if only you were my eldest brother!" Scarlet is really discerning! β
If it was the eldest brother Junran, he would definitely have to twitter at her before he reluctantly agreed.
Fortunately, she also brought her bow and arrow to Jianning Temple!
Jun Lingxi pointed to his two big maids with great interest and said, "The bow shooting of the two of them is also good, and they can also help." β
"Okay." Mu Yan simply agreed, feeling that Jun Lingxi was really good at talking, and of course Zhen Zhen was very discerning.
Xiao Tian glanced at Jun Lingxi in surprise, it turned out that she also knew the little wrongdoer of the Duanmu family.
Looking at Jun Lingxi who was on the rise, Wuyang didn't object, she knew that Mu Yan was not a person who talked on paper, since she should be sure, she should be sure, so she let Jun Lingxi go.
"Xiaoxi, this palace is going to accompany the concubine, you don't have to worry, be careful yourself." Wuyang admonished, and at the same time tied his peace charm to Jun Lingxi.
Jun Lingxi, who got what she wanted, was very well-behaved, no matter what Wuyang said, she should do anything.
Jun Lingxi had already changed into a dark purple riding uniform, and after carrying a bow and arrows on his back, he was full of heroism. After sending Wuyang away, she looked at Mu Yan, "Ah Yan, what should I do next?" Is it going to the wall to defend? β
She looked eager to try.
Xiao Tian had already eaten the golden silk jujube mud cake, and when he saw that Jun Lingxi wanted to climb the wall, he sighed again in his heart: The girl's family that Xiao Gang Datou knows is not ordinary.
Mu Yan shook his head: "Xiaoxi, you just follow me!" β
Jun Lingxi was even happier. She heard her eldest brother say that Mu Yan has never been the kind of coach who sits dry, and if she follows him, she will definitely be useful!
Soon, the temple gate was reinforced, and everyone went to their own places to stand by.
The door was blocked, so even the spies had to climb the wall to get in and out, and the spies went back and forth to report the latest situation, and as the enemy got closer, the air inside the temple became more and more tense.
When the night had completely fallen, the spies came again: "They have gone outside the temple. β
Xiao Tian narrowed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I think my luck doesn't seem to be unlucky." β
Now it is blowing the south wind, they are locked in this Jianning Temple like a turtle in an urn, the easiest way should be a fire attack, a fire burned here, a hundred, can all be extinguished.
But with the current wind direction, if the fire is set on fire, the fire will only spread in the direction of the Jinjiazhai group, and there are many trees in the mountains.
At this time, it is a while to be able to delay for a while, and if it can be delayed until Mu Yan's reinforcements arrive, the odds of victory can be a few points greater. Xiao Tian pondered with gold absorption.
Mu Yan smiled slightly, and said meaningfully: "Wrong, it's my luck." β
Mu Yan made a gesture, and the young general surnamed Pu immediately leaned over to obey the order.
Mu Yan ordered: "Don't be too fierce at the beginning." β
The young general surnamed Pu had been following Mu Yan for a while, and he immediately understood and took the order to leave, but Xiao Tian was confused.
As he spoke, he heard a burst of messy footsteps and noisy talking outside the temple, getting closer and closer, and there were torches illuminating the sky outside the temple......
Even if you don't see it with your own eyes, everyone in the temple can tell that the number of people is really quite large.
There are 1,000 people on the other side, and the force on their side is less than 70 people, so you can think about it and know that this is a battle with a huge disparity in strength between the two sides.
In the Guanyin Palace, those monks all recited Buddhist scriptures, with solemn expressions, while those ordinary pilgrims were panicked, and some of the girls' families couldn't help but start crying silently, and even prepared to kill themselves in order to protect their innocence.
"Bang!"
A thunderous sound suddenly exploded on the wall, causing everyone in the Guanyin Hall to subconsciously look in the direction where the sound came from.
However, they couldn't see the movement outside at all in the Guanyin Hall, and could only pray for the blessing of the Buddha in their hearts.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen "bang-bang" sounds sounded one after another......
Not only did these people not know what was going on, but so did the mountain bandits outside Jianning Temple.
At this moment, outside the temple is a black oppressive human head, nearly a thousand people holding torches and all kinds of weapons gathered on Daning Mountain, from the top of the mountain to the mountainside, the torches in their hands almost illuminated half of the mountain.
The dozen or so people who rushed to the front fell to the ground crookedly, each of them killed with a single shot, and each corpse was left with a bloody hole, and blood gushed out of the bloody hole.
The smell of blood and gunsmoke filled the air.
This change happened so quickly that the mountain bandits who had been rushing to the front stopped and looked at the dense canopy in front of them one by one, not daring to go any further, as if there were some demons and monsters hidden in the shadows.
"We were ambushed!"
"Trap, this must be a trap!"
"They...... What kind of magic is it using? β
"What sorcery? Don't be ashamed, it's a firebolt! β
ββ¦β¦β
The mountain bandits in front were like ants on a hot pot, talking nonsense, and the mountain bandits in the back couldn't see everything that was happening in front of them, so they didn't know why.
A thin man in Tsing Yi turned his head to look at a tall beard, frowned, and said, "Dong Ying, Xiao Tian doesn't know where he got the firecracker, do you think it's more appropriate for us to retreat this time?" β
Dong Ying's face sank like water, squinting at the Jianning Temple in front of him.
At this moment, the gate of Jianning Temple is closed, when the sound of fire guns stops, there is a dead silence inside, if it is not for the fire light of torches in the temple, it almost makes people think that this is an empty temple.
Dong Ying squinted and thought for a moment, and said categorically: "Mu Laoqi, I think they are just bluffing." β
Mu Laoqi thought about it, and then understood what he meant, and said: "Yes, even if they have firearms, they should only be four or five shots at most, otherwise how could they stop after only injuring a dozen or so people, they should take advantage of the victory to pursue." β
Dong Ying's gaze slowly withdrew from the direction of Jianning Temple, and finally landed on the dozen or so lifeless corpses in front of him.
He thinks so too!
A sneer hooked up at the corner of Dong Ying's mouth, but four or five firearms, no matter how powerful they are, they are not to be afraid, and they can't make any big waves.
Dong Ying said coldly: "Mu Laoqi, I'll lead the vanguard to rush in!" As long as the temple gate is broken, there are only a few firebolts to be afraid of! Xiao Tian must be taken today! β
"Bang!"
Before his words fell, there was a deafening sound of firing from behind him.
Three or four feet away, a gray-clothed young man had an extra blood hole in his forehead, and he fell straight down, and the people next to him were so shocked that they took several steps back at once.
The branches of a large tree not far away swayed in the wind, and a figure seemed to flash by, followed by drowning in the shadows of the trees.
It has always been these mountain bandits who kill people, but at this moment they feel as if they have become the object of hunting, and no one knows if they will be the next target to die.
Mu Laoqi's face changed in an instant, and he said, "I'll take someone in, I'll definitely take Xiao Tian!" β
He suddenly took the initiative to ask Ying to compete with Dong Ying, of course, he had his own little abacus: going in and taking Xiao Tian was a great achievement, and staying outside the temple to guard it was not only useless, but now it seems that he has to take great risks.
As if to verify his guess, there were two more "bangs", and then there were two more dead corpses on the ground.
Mu Laoqi squinted, his eyes dark.
There were many of them, and even if they would lose some people this time, it would be impossible for Xiao Tian to kill all of them with the mere four or five firearms in his hand. Moreover, when he takes Xiao Tian, these firecrackers can also become his trophies.
"No way!" Dong Ying immediately objected, "Mu Laoqi, we said it a long time before we left, this time your people are guarding outside, and I will bring people in." β
Mu Laoqi sneered: "Dong Ying, this time and that time." No one thought that Xiao Tian would get the firecracker, right? Be flexible, people! β
"Rules are rules! Mu Laoqi, you are breaking the rules! Dong Ying said angrily.
Where would he watch the credit slip away from his hands, it was rare for Xiao Tian to be alone, although he didn't know where he got a helper, but it was certain that he wouldn't have many helpers. When Xiao Tian returns to Taichu Village, it will be difficult to have such a chance next time.
"You're not alone!"
Dong Ying and Mu Laoqi quarreled directly, and no one refused to retreat.
In this silent night, the noise was faintly carried into the temple with the night wind.
Xiao Tian raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Yan with a strange expression, this benevolent brother seemed to be a little sinister.
Fang just watched a good show of tea kung fu, Xiao Tian had already understood that although Mu Yan only brought fifty people, all of his fifty people were elites with firearms, and the lethality of each of them was far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers.
At first, Xiao Tian thought that since Mu Yan's subordinates had such a divine weapon as a firecracker, they should be able to scare the people of Jinjiazhai away in one go, but he didn't expect that Mu Yan seemed to be hanging them, intending to lure them to the temple.
At this moment, recalling the sentence that Mu Yan instructed his subordinates to "don't be too fierce at the beginning", Xiao Tian felt that Mu Yan was a bad person, Mu Yan should be setting up a bureau, or a very greedy bureau.
Thinking about it, Xiao Tian suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the five big and three rough people in Jinjiazhai outside, they knew that they would go straight and win with more people, unlike Mu Yan, a native of the capital, who had a twisted stomach and was very cunning.
Xiao Tian touched his chin and accidentally remembered Duanmu Fei again. By the way, does that girl know that her fiancΓ© is this kind of person? After passing through the door in the future, it won't be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger and be bullied by him, right?
Xiao Tianyi's thoughts diverged a little, and he heard an earth-shattering shout from outside the temple:
"Rush!"
"Brothers, let's go together!"
"Whoever wins Xiao Tian will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold!"
The chaotic footsteps came towards this side together, and thousands of shouts of killing overlapped, and the shouts shook the sky.
"Boom!"
The door of the temple was slammed with a bang, followed by another one, and at the same time, seven or eight more firecrackers were heard outside.
At this time, Mu Yan suddenly stood up, Xiao Tian turned his head to look at him and raised his eyebrows.
Mu Yan patted Xiao Tian on the shoulder with a smile, "Xiao Tian, next, it's your turn to appear!" β
"......" Xiao Tian, who thought that he was only responsible for watching the play, blinked stupidly, and always felt that the other party was smiling badly.
Xiao Tian couldn't help but tears of sympathy for Duanmu, and could only stand up, who let him be in the same boat with this benevolent brother now!
Jun Lingxi's eyes showed a look of anticipation, and he was already gearing up. It's their turn, isn't it?
"Boom! Boom! Boom! β
The red-lacquered door was repeatedly hit by the people outside, and it was worse than the other, and the bolt of the door appeared a crack under the repeated impact, and it was in danger.
"Boom!"
After another loud bang, the red-painted gate was smashed open by the combined efforts of the mountain bandits outside.
Dong Ying and Mu Laoqi outside the door looked happy and glanced at each other.
On the one hand, they were happy that the gate of Jianning Temple had finally been knocked open, and on the other hand, because they confirmed one thing, Xiao Tian was really pretending, and the fire guns in his hand were really only a few shots, so by now they had shot a total of more than 20 of them.
What is the death of twenty or so people, even if it is the death of a hundred people, it is just a loss of one percent, and it is a great achievement to be able to win Xiao Tian, which is enough to make their status in Jinjiazhai go to the next level!
Moreover, the firecracker is a good thing, and it has to be taken.
If you can find out where Xiao Tian got the fire gun by the way, maybe it will be the second great achievement!
Just thinking about it, Dong Ying and Mu Laoqi felt that their hearts were pounding faster, and their eyes were burning.
"Brothers, rush me!"
The two of them couldn't wait to rush into the gate with their mountain bandits, and they rushed in like a flood that burst the embankment.
At this moment, the open space in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall has long been empty, only a few chairs and a square table are still placed there, and there are two cups of herbal tea and a few empty dishes on the square table, there is a feeling that people are walking tea and cooling.
Dong Ying stretched out his hand and touched the teacup, and said, "The tea is still a little warm, and they haven't been gone for a long time." Search for me, little ones! β
"Yes, General!"
A group of mountain bandits hurriedly received the order, but they were stopped by Mu Laoqi: "It's not easy to find people in such a big temple, but now that the wind direction has changed, just burn the temple and force people out!" β
"You don't want a firebolt anymore?" Dong Ying glanced at Mu Laoqi with disgust, feeling that this person was really stupid.
If this is set on fire, the whole temple will be burned, and the fire will be gone.
The firecrackers that Xiao Tian got looked much more powerful than the firecrackers they knew, light and easy to use. They also have more than 100 firecrackers in Jinjiazhai, but they are all distributed to the cronies of the owner of the village, they don't even have a chance to touch a handful, they only see it from a distance, those firecrackers in Jinjiazhai look heavy and clumsy, and it is impossible for people to walk through the trees with that kind of firecrackers.
If they can get this new type of firearm that Xiao Tian and they use, then they will be developed in the future!
Mu Laoqi also reacted, nodded and said, "Dong Ying, what you said is true." Then search for it! Let's search in several ways! β
At this time, a male voice suddenly came from the direction of the temple gate in the rear: "General, do you want to close the door first, lest people take advantage of the chaos to escape!" β
As soon as Dong Ying thought about it, he immediately responded: "Quick, close the door!" No one must escape, not even a fly can fly out! β
"Squeak!"
The door of Jianning Temple was closed again, and a small minion replaced the broken deadbolt with a scabbard.
At this moment, Xiao Tian, who was hiding in the Daxiong Treasure Palace, naturally saw this scene, turned his head to look at Mu Yan beside him, and always felt that something was wrong, Mu Yan seemed to be catching a turtle in an urn?
So the voice shouting to close the door just now wouldn't be ......
