Chapter 200: No advance or retreat
Ye Suiyun turned around and said, "It's just a few Japanese swordsmen, don't be afraid, let's eat our own, don't stare at them." ranwe?n?w?w?w?.? r?a?n?w?ena'com" As soon as everyone heard him, they all withdrew their eyes and ate the soup cake in their bowls.
At this time, one of the swordsmen walked up to their table with his hands in his hand and kept looking at Ye Suiyun. Ye Suiyun was uncomfortable when he was watched, so he had to say, "Is there anything wrong with the honorable driver?" ”
The swordsman pointed at him and said, "You, Ye Suiyun?" Ye Suiyun just drank a mouthful of soup in his mouth, and the knife man was full of face. The popular man yelled, and he didn't know what he was talking about. Before Ye Suiyun could speak, Tang Xiyao preemptively said, "No, you recognized the wrong person." ”
The swordsman said angrily: "Why are you spitting on me? ”
Ye Suiyun hurriedly picked up the rag left by the shopkeeper to wipe his face, and said, "It's a cough, a cough, an unintentional mistake." Seeing that the swordsman's face was getting darker and darker, Ah Bu and Xiaomo didn't dare to laugh, and their faces were flushed. Bao Yueniang didn't know what was going on, and her face was dazed.
At this time, there was a sneer from the side, and everyone looked at it, there was a man in purple sitting on a table at the root of the wall, and the laughter just now was from him, so he said: "Ye Suiyun, he doesn't even dare to show his real name, how can he live more and more like a turtle with a shrunken head." ”
Ye Suiyun saw that a strand of white hair on his forehead was very dazzling, and immediately recognized it, and blurted out: "Ji farewell." "The person in front of him is one of the eighteen masters of the Great Inner in the past, Ling Xue Pavilion Lord Ji Beiqing.
Ji Beiqing snorted and said, "My memory is not bad. With a quick wave of his right hand, a white light shot at the swordsman standing aside. Ye Suiyun's eyes were quick, and he used the rag in his hand to roll up the hidden weapon. It turned out to be a throwing knife, and the tip of the knife was pressed against the knifeman's neck at this time, but it did not pierce in.
Listening to the sound of the cang, the rest of the many swordsmen sitting in the distance realized that the situation was wrong, and they all drew their long knives and threw themselves at Ji Beiqing.
Ji Beiqing sneered again, and his body flicked out of the inn window. At this time, someone shouted "Ye Suiyun". Everyone turned their heads and saw a person standing at the door, their faces were full of astonishment, Ye Suiyun and Tang Xiyao both sighed, that person was actually nameless.
Nameless said a few words to those swordsmen, and all the swordsmen immediately put away their swords. Tang Xiyao said: "Do you know them?" Nameless nodded and said, "It's all my senior brother." I've been waiting for you for days ... Ye Suiyun knew that these Dongying warriors were brought by the nameless, so he immediately relieved himself, said "I'll talk about it later", and turned out along the window.
Ye Suiyun turned over on the roof with a harrier, and saw that Ji Beiqing had not gone far, and was standing at the corner of the roof, as if waiting for him. Seeing Ye Suiyun chasing after him, Ji said goodbyely: "When you went to Fengxiang Gambling House to make trouble, I really didn't expect you to set off such a big storm in the future. ”
Ye Suiyun said: "The surname is Ji, what do you want to do?" In his heart, he was always haunted by the death of Fang Qingya. At this moment, the murderer is in front of him, no wonder Ye Suiyun can't hold his breath.
Ji Beiqing said: "Naturally, I came to see you on the road." Originally, I only needed your life, but now it seems that my life is much heavier. ”
Ye Suiyun knew what he was referring to Tang Xiyao and the others, and raised his palms and said in a deep voice: "Let the horse come." ”
Ji Beiqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, look over there." As he spoke, he pointed with his hand and said, "Maybe I don't need to bother." Ye Suiyun turned his gaze and saw that not far from the inn was gathered at this time many people dressed as warriors, each with a long knife hanging on their waists, lying or sitting densely crowded on both sides of the road. Ye Suiyun asked, "What do you mean?" When I turned around, I saw that Ji Beiqing was gone.
When he returned to the inn and saw Nameless, he asked why, and Nameless said, "You have seen those samurai outside." Ye Suiyun nodded, and said namelessly: "They are all ghostly people." "It turns out that those samurai were all swordsmen who came to the Central Plains with Ghost Shadow Kojiro. And the ghost shadow Kojiro was ordered by the Japanese minister Fujiwara Hiroji to come to help Li Linfu. Since returning from the battle in the Sky Fog Peak five years ago, Ghost Shadow Kojiro realized that the hidden dragon and crouching tiger in the Tang Dynasty martial arts was not as simple as he imagined, so he retracted his wings and hibernated to wait. Xie Yunliu understood that these people would never stop there, and he ordered Nameless to secretly monitor them to prevent elbow changes. For several years, there was no movement under the ghost shadow gate, but a few months ago, I didn't know what order I received, and suddenly began to mobilize people to rush to Nanping. After noticing it, he reported it to his master, Xie Yunliu immediately found Li Wusheng and others to discuss, and Yu Rui contacted the cause and effect, and deduced that this move must be aimed at Ye Suiyun. The Pure Yang Princes immediately sent Yan Wuwu and the nameless soldiers to come to help in two ways.
Nameless said: "I and many juniors and disciples have been here for three days, and the number of people who have found ghosts is increasing every day, and now I am afraid that there are no less than sixty or seventy people. Far outnumbered us. There was concern in his words. Ye Suiyun looked at the dozen or so warriors behind him and found that most of them had met him on Kou Island.
Tang Xiyao suddenly smiled and said, "Your Chinese has made great progress." It seems that you have memorized what I said last time. Nameless was stunned for a moment, remembered what happened after the battle of Caozilin, and grinned: "What the girl said is true." Ye Suiyun smiled: "Nameless brother, it's the first time I've seen you smile." ”
Nameless said: "Now is not the time to joke. Now that you've appeared, the ghost will get the news sooner or later. It's too late to look for help, so you have to leave as soon as possible. "Everyone knows that Nameless's worries are not unreasonable, the ghost shadow is not trivial, not to mention that the number of the other party is far greater than their side, and if they really fight, it can be said that there is no chance of winning. The men immediately agreed to flee after dark.
A group of people were anxious until late at night, packed their luggage, and quietly left the inn. Nameless and several other swordsmen walked in the front, with Ye Suiyun and his party in the middle, and finally the rest of the swordsmen. Everyone held their breath for fear of causing a disturbance.
The boundary of the Guantangyi market is not large, and everyone walked quickly for a while before coming to the official road, and everyone will be relieved to see that the surroundings are unusually quiet. Suddenly, I heard a shout in the dark, and it seemed that an order had been issued, only to see countless Dongying warriors shouting in their mouths, raising their long knives and slaughtering them.
Nameless and many of his brothers hurriedly took out their swords to resist, and a scuffle broke out in an instant. Bao Yueniang and Ah Bu's brothers and sisters don't know martial arts, Ye Suiyun didn't dare to take half a step away, protected close to the left, and every time he saw someone killing, he repelled it with three punches and two kicks. Although Tang Xiyao's skills are mediocre, fortunately, his body is not weak, and he can protect himself.
Although Xie Yunliu's men were more skilled in swordsmanship, there was a huge difference in the number of people on both sides, and six or seven people were besieged and killed in just a while. Looking into the distance, Nameless unleashed his swordsmanship to kill several people in a row, but there was also a steady stream of samurai who came forward to besiege him. Ye Suiyun saw it clearly, among the six samurai besieging the nameless at this time, one of them was thin and thin, and the person with long hair was none other than the ghost shadow Kojiro who had been seen on the Sky Mist Peak. This person's knife skills are ruthless and tricky, and the knife goes straight to the point.
I only heard Nameless angrily scolding: "Ghost, it is a shame for the samurai that you have so many people ambushing us. ”
Ghost shadow Kojiro snorted coldly: "I am now carrying out Dazai's order, not a duel with you, if you are afraid, you can quickly retreat." He will compete with you one day. It is not difficult to hear that the two have a grudge for a long time, but what they said was Dongying Japanese, but Ye Suiyun and the others couldn't understand it.
Seeing that Nameless can resist it, as long as it takes a while, more people will inevitably surround him. Hearing his own screams, Ye Suiyun had the heart to help, but he didn't dare to walk away, so he had to shout: "Nameless, come back quickly." His shout immediately attracted the attention of the enemy, and six or seven samurai rushed forward. Ah Bu shouted: "Be careful. Ye rose up with the clouds, his body rotated and his legs flew in a row, and the enemies were all in the face and feet, and they all fell to the ground.
Seeing that the road ahead was impassable, the group had no choice but to flee back. Ye Suiyun opened the way in front, and after Nameless and the others broke off, he rushed back to the inn. At this time, except for Ye Suiyun and others, there were only nine nameless brothers left.
As soon as they returned to the inn, they turned and stood on the inside of the door. The swordsman who was chasing after him rushed into the store before he could stop, and was split in two by several swordsmen. Immediately after that, two more samurai rushed in, and like the previous man, they had not yet been able to resist twice, and they were also in different places.
This time, the samurai in the back did not dare to rush into the store rashly. The door was spacious and limited, allowing at most two or three people to rush in side by side, and the original advantage of the superior number of people suddenly disappeared and stopped outside the store. And Nameless and his brother guarded the door at a distance, and finally had a chance to breathe.
At this time, the other shopkeepers who lived here, as well as the three shopkeepers and the shopkeeper, were also awakened one after another, and they saw a large group of fierce Japanese samurai holding murder weapons surrounding the inn, and they were all frightened.
A few residents thought that this was a fight between two groups of Dongying people, and they had nothing to do with themselves, so they wanted to leave the store, but as soon as they went out, before they could explain, they were hacked to death by a group of samurai who were blocked outside. Now everyone knows that these murderous samurai are indiscriminate and want to kill all the people in this shop. Sure enough, I heard the ghost shadow Kojiro say a few words out loud, and all the samurai agreed in unison.
Tang Xiyao couldn't help but ask, "What did he say?" ”
Nameless muttered expressionlessly: "According to your words, it is to kill a hundred by mistake and not let one go." The rest of the people were shocked, and the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper hugged their heads and cried.
Ah Bu said indignantly: "It's too much, there is simply no royal law." Cui Xiaomo said: "These Dongying people don't care about any royal law at first glance, not to mention that there are big people behind them. Luckily, we were hiding in the inn, and they didn't dare to break in. Ah Bu was stunned and asked, "What if they set fire?" Xiao Mo was angry and said, "Shut your crow's mouth." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Nameless say, "Oh no, they're setting fires." The crowd hurriedly looked through the crack in the window, and saw that a stream of people was surrounding the inn with bundles of haystacks, and then a fire burned. A shopkeeper ran back from the back kitchen and told everyone that even the back door of the kitchen was surrounded by samurai, and there was really no way to escape.
Seeing the fire growing, everyone knew that there was only one way to die if they stayed in the inn. Ye Suiyun hurriedly said: "Let's rush out." Tang Xiyao said: "It's useless, those warriors are not ordinary warriors, they must be carefully selected." Except for you and Nameless, there is no way for the rest of the people here to break out of the encirclement. Ye Suiyun looked at her and stopped, and asked, "What do you think of?" Tang Xiyao smiled and shook his head. She originally wanted to persuade Ye Suiyun to escape alone, but after thinking about it, she knew that what she said was in vain, and Ye Suiyun would never leave these people behind.
At this time, the cook in charge of cooking said timidly: "Firewood room... There is a small door in the firewood room that leads to the outside. People were overjoyed, and Ah Bu scolded with a smile: "You guy, since you have a road, why didn't you say it earlier." The cook snorted, "I... I.. As he spoke, his eyes kept glancing at the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper also said strangely: "Yes, why don't I know that there is a door in the firewood room." It turned out that this cook and several shopkeepers liked to go out to gamble on weekdays, and they were afraid that they would be scolded by the shopkeeper if they returned too late, so they privately sawed a small door in the firewood room for returning at night. Covered with firewood during the day, it is difficult to detect. What's more, the big shopkeeper would not have entered the firewood room on weekdays.
Everyone didn't have time to listen to the shopkeeper's scolding, so they all bypassed the hall and rushed to the firewood room. Nameless said to Ye Suiyun: "Let's stay and help you drag the ghost shadow Kojiro." Ye Suiyun didn't allow it, shook his head and said, "Let's go together." Nameless said: "If he finds that the store suddenly becomes empty, he will definitely search and intercept it, and then you still can't run, go quickly." Saying that, he pushed Ye Suiyun hard.
Ye Suiyun knew that what he said was reasonable, and the situation in front of him had no choice but to hesitate for a moment. When they came to the firewood room, everyone scrambled to squeeze out of the door, and in the end, Ye Suiyun and the others helped each other out.
At this moment, a swishing sound was heard in the dark night, and many shopkeepers who ran in front of them suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. Ye Suiyun shouted, "Be careful. He heard the sound of breaking the sky, and cast a small dragon descending hand to pluck and pluck, and there was a chaotic sound of ding ding dong, blocking all the dozens of hidden weapons that were shooting. Holding one of them in his hand and looking closely, it turned out to be a flying needle with a thick little finger, with the word 'snow' engraved on it. Ye Suiyun's heart sank, and he secretly thought that Ji Beiqing was going to block himself.
"Oops", at this time, there was a shout next to him, it turned out that in order to protect Bao Yueniang, Ah Bu was hit by a flying needle in his shoulder and buttocks, and the blood did not stop. Although Ye Suiyun tried his best, he still couldn't block it all after all.
The five of them hurriedly retreated to the firewood room, and Tang Xiyao hurriedly treated Ah Bu's injuries to stop the bleeding. Ah was dissatisfied with the sweat and said, "Thank you, Miss Tang, I'm fine." Cui Xiaomo's anxious tears fell straight down, and said, "When is it, you are still a hero." ”
At this time, there were only five of them left in the firewood room, and the others, including the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper, were all shot to death outside the door, and Ye Suiyun slammed into the ground.
Bao Yueniang asked, "Ah Yun... Is it that the fire is about to burn, I feel hotter and hotter. Only then did a few people realize that there was a faint green smoke around them, the red light outside the window jumped wildly, and the beams above their heads also creaked non-stop, indicating that the firewood house was about to be burned.
is in a dilemma at the moment, staying where he is and sooner or later he will be burned to death, Ye Suiyun scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously. But seeing Tang Xiyao's face, Ye Suiyun was surprised, and said, "What are you laughing at?" Tang Xiyao said: "I remember that I was trapped in a hole with you, and I was almost made into a 'flower chicken'." The heat was much harder than it was now. Ye Suiyun knew that what she was talking about was an emergency on the shore of Yingxiu Lake many years ago. It was at that time that the two had to confide in each other in a desperate situation of life and death, and made a white head covenant. Tang Xiyao also thought of this, and her heart was overflowing with tenderness, so she was not afraid of the current crisis. As soon as Tang Xiyao said it, Ye Suiyun seemed to be a lot calmer, and it seemed that the fire and the killer were not so terrible.
At that moment, a tricky whistle passed through the raging fire and reached everyone's ears. The whistle was thin and high-pitched, and it sounded like it was blowing from something like a bamboo leaf.
Tang Xiyao heard this, her eyes lit up and she said happily: "My cousin is here." ”
