Chapter 90: Rupture
||->->
Sui Tang stood up silently, walked to Li Que's body, touched him, and turned out two small porcelain vases. One of the small porcelain bottles contained the Scattered Spirit Pill, and the other porcelain bottle contained the Gathering Spirit Pill.
The Scattered Spirit Pill is an elixir specially refined for spiritual cultivators, after taking it, the spiritual energy in the body will not be able to condense, which is no different from ordinary people, and the Gathering Spirit Pill is the antidote to cracking the Scattered Spirit Pill. These two medicines are also essential for spiritual cultivators to walk the rivers and lakes.
She took the Scattered Spirit Pill into her arms, poured out two Gathering Spirit Pills, took one for herself, and then handed the other one to Jia Caixuan.
Her eyes fell on Shangguan Xiu's shoulder, and after looking at it for a moment, she squatted down, unbuttoned Shangguan Xiu's clothes, took out the gold sore medicine from her arms, and applied it to Shangguan Xiu's wound.
Shangguan Xiu smiled at her gratefully.
Jia Caixuan continued: "Ah Xiu, I think you should convince the public with virtue, just now Li Gen, Zhang Qiang, and Ye Hai obviously begged you for mercy, why do you have to kill them." ”
Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "I've given them a chance." ”
Sui Tangjing, who was silently helping him bandage his wounds, suddenly asked, "If they give up resistance at the beginning, will you really spare them?"
Shangguan Xiu subconsciously looked at her, and after a while, he sneered, shook his head and said, "No! As the saying goes, I'd rather have no one around me than someone to be able to trust. ”
Unreliable one's own people are more terrible than powerful enemies.
Sui Tangjing couldn't help laughing, with a look of appreciation in her eyes.
During this time, she could clearly feel the changes that had taken place in Shangguan Xiu, when she taught him Lingwu, he was still like a half-grown child, and now, he has grown into a smart, capable and decisive man.
She helped Shangguan Xiu bandage his wounds, and helped him lift his clothes and tie them neatly.
Jia Caixuan said quietly: "It turns out that you didn't plan to keep them alive in the first place!"
Shangguan Xiu Zhengse said: "Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself! If you let them go today, they will never be grateful to you in their hearts, and in the future, they will only retaliate against you even more!" Tang Ling is a bloody lesson, and this lesson also makes Shangguan Xiu remember it in his heart.
"Brother Xiu—"
With a shout, Luo Ren, Zhan Xiong and the others rushed down from a small dirt bag.
Seeing them, the corners of Shangguan Xiu's mouth raised, and a smile appeared on his face, these are his brothers, his partners! He stood up with a smile and said, "You guys are too slow, the battle here is over!"
Seeing clearly that Shangguan Xiu, Sui Tangjing, and Jia Caixuan were all safe and sound, everyone's hearts finally fell when they mentioned their throats.
Luo Ren said: "Brother Xiu, you ran too fast, and we didn't catch up with you with all our might!" While speaking, he jumped up the hill, looked at the corpses on the ground, frowned and asked, "Brother Xiu, ...... are they?"
"It's all Wang Dao's men!"
"This dog officer, he himself abandoned the city and fled, and left so many people in the city to attack us, is he afraid that the soldiers will not be able to come in?" Luo Ren said angrily.
Shangguan Xiu smiled and said, "Of course, he hopes that we can't defend the Huya Pass, so that his escape will become a foresight, not only will he not be condemned by others, but he will also help him win more people's hearts!"
"This damn bastard!" said Roshinobu through gritted teeth, and the rest of the group clenched their fists with angry faces.
If Wang Dao was here now, they would all be able to pounce on him and bite him a few times to relieve their hatred.
Shangguan Xiu changed his words and asked, "Have all the enemy troops withdrawn?"
"Yes, Brother Xiu, Fanzi has already withdrawn!" Cao Lei replied loudly.
Shangguan Xiu looked at everyone, raised the corners of his mouth, and laughed. Everyone was stunned by his laughter at first, and then they all laughed one by one.
With less than a thousand defenders, it was not easy to repel thousands of soldiers, and still without defensive weapons, and now of course they had a reason to laugh.
The next day, at noon, Wang Dao finally returned to Huya Pass with dozens of cronies.
There were only three battalion commanders left around him, and there were less than fifty soldiers.
Shangguan Xiu was able to successfully repel the soldiers, which really made Wang Wei unexpected, and what he didn't expect was that none of Li Que and his party who stayed in the city went back, and it wasn't until this morning that he heard that Li Que and the others had died in Gucheng Mountain, and they were killed by Shangguan Xiu alone.
Since Shangguan Xiu came to Huya Pass, he has lost six battalion lieutenants, as well as more than a dozen spiritual cultivators, and the money hired by these people has all been wasted, and Wang Dao's hatred for Shangguan Xiu can be imagined.
When he returned to the city, he inquired about the officers and soldiers on patrol, and learned that Shangguan Xiu was in the school military field, so he immediately rushed over with a group of henchmen and his subordinates.
The military field of Huya Pass is not large, but there are not many officers and soldiers who can train Shangguan Xiu, and there are only five or six hundred officers and soldiers left after removing the officers and soldiers who defend the city, patrol and recuperate from the wounded.
The Feng soldiers stood in the center of the school's military field, holding knives in their hands, practicing the swordsmanship taught to them by Zhan Xiong, while Shangguan Xiu and the others stood on the sidelines and watched.
At this time, Wang Dao came to the school military field with his subordinates, he first glanced around, and when he saw Shangguan Xiu, his eyes were about to erupt with fire. He gritted his teeth tightly, suppressed his anger, laughed twice, and said loudly: "It turns out that the brothers are all here, and the official is looking for you! The official has set up a celebration banquet in the mansion to celebrate the brothers' success in resisting the attack of Fanzi, the brothers should stop practicing, go for a walk, and drink wine and eat meat with the official!"
The soldiers present stopped their drills one after another and looked towards Wang Dao, but everyone stood in place, and no one moved.
Shangguan Xiu also turned his head, stared at Wang Dao for a moment, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang is finally willing to come back, I thought Lord Wang would stay in Yicheng for a few more days!"
Wang Dao's face was straight, and he said loudly: "This official is going to Yicheng to ask for help, don't you think that this official really escaped from the battle?"
Luo Ren and the others scoffed at his words, and Shangguan Xiu asked curiously, "Lord Wang, have you asked for reinforcements?"
Wang Dao said in a deep voice: "Now Yicheng is not peaceful, the rebel party is rampant, yesterday the city captain of Yicheng led the army to exterminate the rebel party, failed to return to the city, and did not come back until this morning, but I also heard that the fan who attacked Huya Pass retreated. After a pause, he continued: "What are the brothers still doing in a daze?
Hundreds of Feng Jun stood in place like wooden stakes, their eyes brushing at Shangguan Xiu. The latter glanced at Zhan Xiong lightly. Zhan Xiong understood, and shouted to the wind army: "One!"
Hearing him shout a 'one', the people immediately took an offensive posture and slashed forward in unison. Zhan Xiong put his hands behind his back, walked slowly beside the camp of the Wind Army, and shouted, "Two!"
"Kill, kill, kill!" the wind army first slashed once, then three times in a row, accompanied by a deafening shout of killing.
Wang Dao frowned, he was the city captain of Huya Pass, but the people present acted as if they hadn't heard his words, and they simply thought they were transparent.
He took two steps forward, and was about to shout, Shangguan Xiu sneered and said: "Lord Wang, the soldiers are just temporarily retreating, and they may fight back at any time.
"You ......," Wang Wei said loudly in anger, "This official is out of good intentions and wants to reward the brothers in the army......"
Before he could finish speaking, Shangguan Xiu interrupted: "Put away your set! If you want to reward the brothers in the army, what did you do earlier?
"Bold!" Wang Dao was so angry that his body trembled, pointed at Shangguan Xiu's nose, and shouted angrily: "Shangguan Xiu, you are so bold, you dare to openly slander this official!
Wang Dao angrily pointed at Shangguan Xiu and said sharply: "Take down this Shangguan Xiu who committed the following crimes for me!"
"Obey!" The three battalion lieutenants all intervened in to salute and walked over to Shangguan Xiu. Before they could get to Shangguan Xiu, Luo Ren and the others had already stepped forward and stopped the three of them.
"What are you going to do? Do you want to rebel?" Wang Dao is also out now, that is, he wants to tear his face with Shangguan Xiu, and use himself as a city lieutenant and Shangguan Xiu as a battalion lieutenant, and the official will crush him to death.
Luo Ren and the others stared at Wang Dao, and at the same time pulled out the sabers under their ribs. Seeing this, the three battalion lieutenants were startled and involuntarily retreated backwards.
"It's the opposite, it's the opposite! It's all the opposite!" Wang Dao glared angrily at Shangguan Xiu, Luo Ren and the others, and shouted: "All the soldiers of our Feng Army obey the order and take down Shangguan Xiu and his henchmen!"
Crash!
With his order, hundreds of wind soldiers in the school military field swarmed up. It's just that they didn't rush towards Shangguan Xiu, Luo Ren and others, but rushed towards Wang Dao, surrounded Wang Dao and his dozens of cronies, people were holding steel knives, sharpening knives, grinning, looking at the posture, as if they were going to swallow Wang Dao and the others alive.
"You ...... You're all the opposite......"
"I told you yesterday," as Shangguan Xiu's words sounded, the wind army automatically and consciously separated, he walked out of the crowd unhurriedly with his hands behind his back, and said: "If you are willing to fight the enemy together with us, you are still the city captain of Huya Pass, and if you flee without a fight, then you are nothing at Huya Pass." ”
While speaking, Shangguan Xiu walked up to Wang Dao, stood still, raised his hand and gently patted the dust on his body, and said softly: "Go home, before everyone is completely angered by you, otherwise, even if you want to run away without a fight this time, I'm afraid you won't have that chance." ”
