Chapter 148: Fish Lantern Flower (11)
As twilight rises and the ceremony is over, many people prepare to leave in groups after sending their lamps.
Some people who only came from other places this year heard that there was still a fireworks, so they decided to stay, watch it first and then go back, and complete the last step of the Fish Lantern Festival.
The disciples of the Xianyang Sect are not easy today, in previous years, they were all done in accordance with the rules, but this year there are many more foreign mortals and monks, don't say that small frictions need to be mediated, order is maintained, stalls can not occupy the road and other small things, that is, later the divine tree suddenly gathered, and the very dense crowd also needed to be channeled.
The piles and piles are all tired and sweaty.
Everyone was tired enough, and when they saw that the hour was about the same, they waited for the fireworks to be released, and finally after the trip, they went to rest and rest.
Several younger disciples were chattering and discussing, and when they were going to buy spirit fruits, they suddenly heard several explosions from the crowd, and the sound was deafening, and for a while it was louder than the fireworks that rushed to the sky.
"Help!"
The disciples of the Xianyang Sect suddenly became busy, saving people, evacuating, and blocking the explosion. The captain who led the team avoided the splashing mud in a flash, reminding everyone to pay attention to safety, and while feeling with a bitter face that he really shouldn't have come today, he took the communication jade pendant to find Li Yi.
At this time, Li Yi had eaten the closed door soup of his female cultivator several times, and felt that he was really going to become an old bachelor like his master, and he was depressed in the tea shop and drank tea as wine.
Before the tea was imported, I turned my head and heard this unusual explosion sound, and when I came out, I was greeted by a rioting crowd, and many people were covering their wounds, obviously something was not small.
At the same time, the anxious voice of the leading disciple came from the end of the communication jade pendant:
"Senior brother, something is wrong!"
Li Yi's heart sank.
At this time, Sang Ling and Su Luo happened to walk to the first half of the market, where there were the most stalls and the most mortals, but they didn't expect this to happen in the next second.
Everywhere there was flying dust, people running around, and every now and then a sudden explosion would make the scene extremely chaotic.
A little doll sat in the middle of the road, and a round bead thing beside her was smoking, Sang Ling quickly extinguished the fire and picked up the doll into her arms.
Su Luo found a low table, flipped over and stood up as a block, avoided the side of the road, turned his head and wanted to go to Lasangling, but his hand was soft, and when he turned his head, it was a little doll that was still hanging with tears and clenched in his fists.
"Su Luo, he is separated from his parents, you help me watch."
Sang Ling waved her hand from afar, turned her head and continued to run into the crowd to help evacuate, looking for the hidden gunpowder beads.
Su Luo frowned, and was trying to keep up, not wanting the little doll to be scared, he moved, grabbed it tighter, like an octopus, and held it firmly.
But there was a pause, and Su Luo couldn't see Sang Ling's shadow anymore.
Meanwhile.
Sang Ling had already followed the crowd to the second half of the market, and the situation here was even more serious with the frantic running crowd and the dense sound of explosions.
She shot a few times, helped mortals a few times, and saw a little orange-yellow fire that was burning, because of the dark twilight, this fire was put to the maximum at this time, she quickly approached, but there were too many people passing around, as if they were going backwards in the turbulent water, and the speed was too late.
"There are explosives hidden in the southeast, everyone pay attention to dodge!"
The sound of the reminder was drowned in the dense footsteps before it came out three meters, and the people nearby heard the reminder and ran even more disorderly, and the direction Sang Ling wanted to move in was suddenly blocked.
Dense sweat seeped from her hairline, and just as she hesitated whether to take other inappropriate measures, she saw a white figure approaching through the crowd, and after a few light collisions, finally wiped the burning lead unhindered, and extinguished the gunpowder.
It was Xie Hanzhou who arrived.
I saw that his clothes were stained with dust and slightly messy, and even his shoes, which had always been clean and dust-free, were stepped on several times, and I understood that he was going to extinguish the fire powder lead just now and stop the explosion from being trampled on by mortals.
has always been a neatly dressed person, but now in order to stop the explosion and save the lives of mortals, he is willing to put down his body, but Sang Ling has a slight change in his opinion.
"Thanks to your timely action, otherwise there would have been another death or injury."
Xie Hanzhou walked quickly and protected Sang Ling, resisting the collision of the crowd:
"Someone should want to make trouble, I'll take you away first. For the rest of the matter, I will find the Xianyang Sect to deal with it again. ”
"I'm not weak in my cultivation now, and I don't need your protection." Sang Ling stepped out of his protective posture and said seriously:
"It's too late, this gunpowder seems to have been deliberately buried by someone with a heart, and we must find these people out quickly, so that they can't ruin this fish lantern festival. If Xie Xianjun has a heart, we will go our separate ways, I will go to find someone, and you will go to find gunpowder. ”
The Fish Lantern Flower Festival is held by the Xianyang Sect, and if something happens, both the Lesan Zhenren and the Xianyang Sect will be to blame. Moreover, she had a vague premonition that today's affairs were not simple, and the purpose of those people did not seem to be aimed at mortals.
Xie Hanzhou still wanted to persuade again, thinking of what the stall owner said before, he wanted to respect her preferences, but he didn't insist on it after all. However, he handed a spirit rune to Sang Ling:
"If you can withstand the blow of the Jindan monk, you don't want me to protect you, so you will accept the spirit rune."
Sang Ling glanced at Xie Hanzhou, his eyes were dark and heavy, but there was a touch of warmth in the dim sky.
She paused for a moment, then finally took the talisman and went deeper into the market.
Xie Hanzhou stood where she was, watching her leave, and only after a moment turned his head to clean up the hidden gunpowder. It's blazing fast, though.
The more Sang Ling walked forward, the fewer mortals there were, and in the cloud of smoke and dust, she saw a few more fuses that had just been ignited, she took action to extinguish the fire, and quickly chased forward. This fire has just been lit, and the people behind it must not have gone far!
There was a rustling sound when he stepped on the scorched earth under his feet, and soon there was a rustling sound in front of him, and there were not many of them, and there should have been only one person who set the fire.
At Sang Ling's feet, a person had already jumped in front of the man, and found that the other party was actually a mysterious person who covered his facial features.
She immediately went out to arrest people, not ruthlessly, just to capture them alive.
"I'll spare your life!"
Suddenly felt the palm wind attacking, the mysterious man was startled, and when he hid again, it was too late, so he could only accept this palm, and at the same time threw out a few small gunpowder beads in his hand, smashing Sang Ling's forehead.
Sang Ling hurriedly avoided it, and when she raised her eyes again, the mysterious person had disappeared into the smoke and dust. Quickly pursued, but in the smoke and dust ahead, I heard the sound of fighting!
A bad premonition came to her mind, and she hurried closer.
Behind the smoke and dust were two groups of people fighting, one group was dozens of people who were hiding their faces like the mysterious person just now, and the other group was "mortals", the number was seven or eight.
The fight between the two sides was not fierce, and the "mortals" mostly dodged, while the mysterious man made a few killing moves to force the other party to make a move.
There were also a few badly injured mortals around, hiding in large and small dirt pits, looking at the fighting crowd in front of them in fear.
She frowned, and spun around the head of the "mortal", but she first fed the elixir to the injured mortal, and when she saw that they could walk together, she escorted them out.
After listening to the report of his subordinates, the leader of the mysterious people swept his eyes, and when he saw Sang Ling appear, he sneered in his heart. At the same time, the weapon in his hand was even more ruthless, and he rushed to the black hat on the opponent's head.
"Bang Bang!"
After three more strokes, the opponent fought to be injured and protected the black hat tightly, and the leader smiled mockingly and made a killing move.
The "mortal" on the other side turned pale. They are not many in number, and they can't reveal their demon clan identity, so they naturally can't go all out. Now that the mortals are gone, but limited to the black hat on the head, there is not much demonic power that can be fully exerted for a while, and it is still in a disadvantaged position, which is even more difficult than just now.
As soon as Sang Ling sent the mortal away with his front foot, he saw the mysterious man doing this to the "mortal" wearing a black hat on his head, and quickly stopped him.
In the fight, a person was inserted, and the two sides were opposite, and the leader saw Sang Ling, sneered, and warned hoarsely:
"You save your mortals, don't meddle with it!"
confirmed the guess in her heart even more, Sang Ling only felt her heart sink for a moment:
"Aren't these mortals too? How I can't be saved! ”
The leader sneered:
"These things are not mortal, you will be able to see them later. I don't like nosy people, though. ”
With a fierce flash in his eyes, his subordinates came out vigorously, and at the same time, several of his subordinates came out, and quickly stabbed Sang Ling in the back, which was already a siege.
The little demons were trying their best to resist, and they couldn't get out to save each other, so they immediately screamed and reminded:
"Watch your back."
Sang Ling suddenly felt a cool breeze behind him, and was about to turn around to deal with it, when he suddenly heard the sound of the three swords of "brush, brush, brush", and the cold and familiar sword qi turned around a few times behind him, which had already repelled the dangerous feeling just now.
Someone assisted, Sang Ling seized the time to continue to fight with the leader, the opponent's strength was not weak, Sang Ling was also a hundred moves, spirit runes, thunder beads, all kinds of means came out, and there was a draw.
It's just that she wants to be caught alive, but the other party is as difficult as a loach, but it is a stalemate for a while.
The spirit rune was thrown away, and was dodged by the other party, Sang Ling quickly slapped a palm and slapped it on the leader's chest, the leader slipped under his feet, bent down and dodged again, and dodged a few moves like a loach. Sang Ling suddenly smelled a familiar aroma, and before she could remember where she smelled it, she heard a scream behind her.
"Ah——!h
One after another, it was Xie Hanzhou who scratched several mysterious people with a few swords, and the mysterious people were already injured, and finally couldn't help but speak.
The leader realized that the person who suddenly appeared was powerful, and his eyes turned on Xie Hanzhou's face, and he immediately let out a series of strange whistles.
"Squeak, squeak!"
Sang Ling raised her vigilance, but she didn't wait for any change in this group of mysterious people, her eyes were half-narrowed, and she decided that she couldn't let go of this leader, and her shot was even more swift and powerful.
After a few clicks, Sang Ling suddenly felt the other party's delay in staying hands, and immediately raised his voice:
"Xie Hanzhou, be careful that they want to withdraw!"
As he spoke, he saw that the rest of the mysterious people had immediately regained their momentum, and at the same time, countless small gunpowder beads in their hands were ignited and thrown into the crowd wearing black hats.
Xie Hanzhou had already taken out his sword to block it, and there were a few more swords to "brush and brush", and the gunpowder bead that was about to explode was bounced towards the position of the mysterious person, and it exploded suddenly, flying down countless stumps.
Sang Ling also tacitly accelerated the speed in his hand, thinking that even if the shrimp soldiers and crabs ran to death, leaving this leader behind would break the game.
The leader didn't expect this girl to be so dead, and hurriedly avoided a few moves, but her wrist was already slightly tingling, and there was blood, she was really fierce, this person was actually thinking of abolishing herself?
At the same time, Xie Hanzhou had already followed the mysterious person who had left the dead body of his companion and was running away, and now there were seven or eight people left. Seeing him chasing after him, the last few people quickly turned around and fought together with their swords.
The situation has taken a turn for the worse.
The mysterious person who was still standing in the winning position at the beginning became a weak person in a blink of an eye because of the appearance of Sang Ling and Xie Hanzhou.
The leader just wanted to make a quick decision, and opened Sang Ling's attack with all his strength, and immediately approached Xie Hanzhou's position a little under his feet, and shot to stop a few swords:
"Let's go!"
A few mysterious people were stunned, but they still obeyed the order and chose to leave.
Sang Ling frowned, increased her determination to capture alive, gritted her teeth and endured the stinging pain of the wound on her body, and quickly joined the battlefield.
There was already an anxious state in the leader's eyes, and suddenly he saw the sword stabbing at his dantian position, and he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, hurriedly dodged, and subconsciously used the magic technique that the monk was accustomed to, and used the aura to open the sword's attack. At the same time, with a stroke of his feet, countless dust was outlined, and he said hatefully:
"I will perish with you!"
