Chapter 176: Long Huai in distress
Judging from the kung fu of the latest batch of assassins, there is no doubt that Yi Chenxuan's subordinates, Zhan Ting and Qiao Qingxu discussed and entrusted Concubine Jing and others to the general of the Yaoguo Soldiers and Horses, and the two rode horses overnight and galloped in the direction of Xichu.
Zhan Ting hurriedly unfolded the note, the four big characters on it were all written with blood, and the last word was obviously weak, and the tail end was long and weak.
"Longhuai has changed." Writing the note tightly in the palm of his hand, the battle court was anxious but helpless.
Qiao Qingxu was also full of worry, kissed Xiao Zhen's forehead and let it squat on his shoulder, and turned his head sideways to the battle court: "Longhuai County is far away from here, and Fu Chu and they must pass through, at this time, it is too late to rush to Bengen, and now they can only contact the nearby brothers for help." ”
"You arrange people, I really don't know them well." Zhan Ting took out a blank note and ink block from the package and handed it to Qiao Qingxu, and suddenly felt a little sad, "It seems that Brother Luo has encountered an accident...... I'm sorry, Qingxu, I always make trouble for my brothers and hurt them......"
"Since you have chosen to help the Seventh Prince, we are no longer all the way, but the brothers are willing to sacrifice their lives to help you, even if they give their lives for this, no one will complain, why should you blame yourself. We only hope that one day you can come back, and the matter of saving Li'er may not be only that Seven Princes can do. ”
Unexpectedly, Zhan Ting shook his head lightly: "No, it's not because of Li'er, I serve His Highness and don't ask for anything in return." Halfway through his words, Zhan Ting's face showed a serious expression that Qiao Qingxu was very familiar with but always couldn't read: "My Highness and I have known each other since we were children, and he has never treated me as a courtier, and he will give me half of any good things." Later, when Li'er had an accident, His Royal Highness, who was very disgusted with Emperor Yao, did not hesitate to kneel down to intercede for Li'er, I will never forget these kindnesses, let alone betray His Highness. Qingxu, I also miss the days with you and my brothers, but I have a more important task, that is, to protect His Highness for the rest of my life. ”
People who are familiar with the war court know that he is simple and honest, but Qiao Qingxu knows that he still has stubbornness that no one can resist, and anyone who is recognized by the war court, he will be good to that person wholeheartedly, such as Yi Chenjing, the prince general of the distant country who has nothing to do with the rivers and lakes. Qiao Qingxu can somewhat understand the loyalty of the battle court, although she is reluctant in her heart, she never says it, she only silently helps him and supports him, and hopes that one day he can open his eyes and see clearly, what kind of mood she is waiting for.
"Alright, explain to me what you're doing with all that. I didn't say I wouldn't let you protect him. Pulling off the horse's back hard, Qiao Qingxu let go of Xiao Zhen with the note, and regained a hearty smile on his face, "You fool, it doesn't matter if you don't come back, I, our hearts are all towards you." ”
Zhan Ting nodded gratefully, not noticing the bitterness on the face of the woman who was no longer young.
This is the eighth year since the war family was all over the house, and the war court was forced to fall into the grass and get acquainted with Qiao Qingxu for a long time.
The man surnamed Luo who delivered the news to the war court was indeed dead, and when Fu Chu knocked on the door and no one responded, he had no choice but to break into the door, and the corpse of the head catcher in Longhuai County, who everyone respectfully called Brother Luo, was already stiff.
"The person who started the attack is very experienced, and he will kill him with a knife in the most important places." Yi Chenjing briefly checked the wound on Luo Chu's head and neck, got up and clapped his hands, and looked past Fu Chu to the door, "It seems that our whereabouts have been exposed, if nothing else, as long as we step out of the yard, we will be besieged." ”
Luo Zhutou is the person in charge of receiving them in Longhuai County, and he is the only one, who can find him here to show that the enemy has figured out their human pulse, and after killing Luo Zhutou, he closed the door and let them break in by himself, it should be to catch turtles in the urn.
In other words, the probability of ambushing the enemy outside the courtyard is as high as ** points, and they have already walked into a trap.
It turned out that Yi Chenjing's speculation was completely correct, and the reality was even worse than he expected, and the anxious enemy couldn't even wait for them to walk out of the room to the empty courtyard, and in the blink of an eye, more than twenty men in different costumes jumped down from the wall, surrounding the houses where everyone was.
"The scene is too spectacular, do you need to come so much to bully six people." When everyone's heartstrings were tense, they would rather be drunk than be in a hurry and smile bitterly, and the folding fan in their hands kept shaking.
"Close the doors and windows." Bai Qige made a quick decision, "Everyone go into the back room, don't disperse, try to find other ways out." ”
Bai Qige's reaction was slightly unexpected by Fu Chu, and the calmness and calmness she showed at the tense moment were all under the young man's eyes, and there was a hint of admiration in her bright eyes. Ye Huawan was frightened by Luo Zhutou's corpse just now, and she was still in shock at this moment, so she followed behind Fu Chu in a daze, closed all the windows and doors, and when she returned to the center of the room, she subconsciously pulled Yi Chenjing's sleeve and hid behind him.
Yi Chenjing originally wanted to protect Bai Qige behind him, but his movements were restricted by Ye Huawan's little tail, but Ning Xi's drunken action was preempted, and Luo Tuo's free-flowing blue-eyed boy stood in front of Bai Qige with light blonde hair, and turned around and smiled warmly like a spring breeze: "Bai girl, I'll protect you." ”
"Mind your own business." Holding Ning Xidrunk's collar in one hand and throwing people aside, Yi Chenjing snatched back his position domineeringly, and the idea of killing Ning Xidrunk first and then dealing with the enemy flashed in his mind.
That guy is obviously more attentive than himself, and his skin is extremely thick. Yi Chenjing sneered, and took the time to glance at Ning Xidrunk coldly.
The house where Luo Zhutou lived was not big, there were only two inner rooms except for the living room of the corpse, and there was no back door for Bai Qige and the others to escape, that is, they were completely trapped. Yi Chenjing held Luo Zhutou's saber in his hand and pushed everyone to the farthest corner from the gate, while he stood behind the door, his raised blade ready to slash the enemy who broke through the door at any time.
It's just that how can he deal with more than 20 enemies alone.
Ye Huawan took a brief look, pushed open the window and said in despair: "Three steps outside the window is the courtyard wall, there is no way to escape,"
"There is a way to escape, will the enemy give you a chance?" Bai Qige pushed through the bookcase and blocked the door, raised his hand and pointed out the window, "Fu Chu, stack all the things that can be stacked high and climb over the courtyard wall." ”
Seeing Bai Qige take out the short sword at her waist, Yi Chenjing immediately understood what she wanted to do, and couldn't help frowning: "There's no time for you to mess around." Go with them first, and I'll try to stop them. ”
"I admit that I am incompetent when it comes to kung fu, but when it comes to killing, I may not be inferior to you." Bai Qige ignored his scolding, and faced Yi Chenjing face to face and clinged to the door on the other side. She was born in a special forces, and the memory of her experience in hand-to-hand combat has always existed in her mind, even if her strength is far inferior to her previous life, killing people with skills is still not a problem.
Yi Chenjing was helpless, he knew Bai Qige too well, so he naturally knew that persuasion could not be persuaded, so he had to nod and let her do it.
Although Fu Chu emphasized righteousness, he did not lack calm and rationality, he understood that now was not the time to argue about who should stay and who should go, and every extra moment wasted was adding pressure to Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige. The rustling footsteps of the enemy outside were approaching, Fu Chu patted the top of Ye Huawan's head, and at the same time took a deep breath and looked at Ning Xidrunk and Feng Wujiang: "Do what Sister Bai says, otherwise you can only sit and wait for death." ”
Inside and outside the house, separated by a door, on one side is the sound of cautious and slowly approaching footsteps, on the other side is the sound of tables and chairs and low cabinets moving, and the people between life and death are silent, pressing their violently beating hearts and trying to save themselves in an orderly manner.
Those enemies probably didn't know the strength of the few people in the house, so they didn't dare to act rashly, and it was only when Fu Chu and they poured everything they could move between the window and the courtyard wall, and only when they escaped over the wall after the base was high, someone tentatively pushed the door, causing a screeching sound of the dilapidated wooden door.
Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing glanced at each other, and at the same time bowed slightly, beads of sweat in the palm of the short sword.
There was no sound for a long time after the initial sound, Fu Chu stood outside the window and stuck his head into the room, and just wanted to open his mouth to let the two of them jump off the wall together, when suddenly the wooden door made a loud noise, and the thin bookcase on top of the door was knocked away in an instant.
"Do it," I don't know if it was Yi Chenjing or Bai Qige shouted, and the stunned young man saw the blood mist burst into the sky, and the fishy sweet taste burrowed into his nose, strong and disgusting.
The door of the small house is not very big, and the door of the nursery room is narrow, and the enemies who suddenly break in have to enter in a column in turn. This brief moment gave Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige a chance, the sword rose and fell, and the four lives were already whining, and the enemy behind was inevitably shocked or cowardly when they saw this, and in the moment of a pause, two more people were killed.
However, even if the first hand took a little advantage, the number of the other party was more than ten times that Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing could not completely block, after killing nine people neatly, the remaining ten or so enemies suddenly decreased by half, Bai Qige was puzzled, only to hear a series of green tiles breaking above his head, and then several figures fell from the sky, and several people outside the door joined forces to surround the two. Killers who are accustomed to quietly killing people always have many methods, and climbing on the roof of the house is simply commonplace for them.
"Sister Bai, Brother Chen, go quickly, quickly," Fu Chu shouted with all his strength, but those two had no chance to escape. It was already very difficult to dodge enemy attacks in cramped houses, and no matter how much they dodged and tried to move in the direction of the window, they could not move forward even half a step.
If this continues, will we not surely die?
Fu Chu didn't dare to imagine what the result would be, his voice was hoarse, and he still couldn't wait for those two bloody figures.
The chaotic and swaying figure could no longer tell who was who, screams and roars in his ears came and went, swords and swords in his eyes, stumps and broken arms were all over his eyes, Fu Chu, who had never seen such a brutal killing, was gradually dazed, and even the blood stains on his face were unaware.
Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige teamed up to deal with it very difficult, and the red-eyed enemy heard someone shouting outside the window, and he didn't want to swing it with a knife, and was slashing at the top of Fu Chu's head.
Seeing the sword light coming, Fu Chu, who didn't know anything at all, had no way to dodge, Ye Huawan, who was climbing over the wall, looked back at him in a daze, and was so frightened that he was paralyzed for a while, and fell from the wall with a poof. At the same time, another cold light suddenly appeared, and before the long knife fell, it slashed sharply, and the long knife, which was less than a foot away from Fu Chu's scalp, was knocked out and flew out, and a round object rolled to the window.
It was a human head scarlet with scarlet blood that had been cut off by a sharp blade.
"Yezi, pull him away," Bai Qige, who came to the rescue at the last moment, shouted angrily, and with a push of his hand, he pushed Fu Chu heavily against the hard courtyard wall three steps away.
Ye Huawan, who fell back into the courtyard, hurriedly got up when she heard the sound, grabbed Fu Chu's arm and pulled it to the wall, and before she could reach the place, Fu Chu's exclamation that changed tone exploded in her ears.
"Sister Bai, back,"
Ye Huawan turned around and looked, and behind Bai Qige, the fierce man raised his bloodstained fist and quickly fell, holding in his palm was a cold iron thorn with cold light.
