Chapter Eighty-Six: A Stick of Incense in Taoyuan, Half a Life of Brotherhood
Shout!
Ratting arrows shoot into the night sky.
In the procession to the east, west, and south gates, the cavalry rushed to hear the sound of arrows in the night sky, and tightened their reins.
'Huh~~'
Yun Yaohou pulled the reins, looked back at the night sky suddenly, and shouted: "Something happened in the city, turn around-"
Sigh Rule!!
While the left and right foot soldiers and cavalry turned around, the rest of the princes also turned around in the streets at this time, and rushed in the direction of the rising arrows.
Some marquis guessed that the marquis took the opportunity to kill them; Others drew their swords and shouted, "Follow me!" The cloak was lifted, and the horses galloped straight through the streets, and the surrounding soldiers and horses galloped after them.
The long street was filled with slaughter.
The Assassin swam the lantern and threw out his weapon, striking the shield and iron helmet, and bouncing it open, followed by a short axe flying and slashing at the nearby pillars. Five hundred large shield halberders blocked the street, like a thick wall, blocking a large number of assassins, and a figure pounced on him, and was pushed back by the great shield, and fell to the ground, and several halberds came to stab him to death.
This group of assassins, I don't know if it is the rivers and lakes and green forests, or the dead soldiers, can only be regarded as good hands in terms of martial arts, but the cooperation with each other has caused a lot of trouble to the shield halberders, and what really made Su Chen know the identities of these people is the sentence of the man wearing iron gloves, "This seat!" β
Aragami Cult!
Generally speaking, only those of high status in a religion call themselves so.
And this sect is the only one who has a grudge against Su Chen.
Su Chen picked up the spiritual position that fell to the ground, and there were two shield halberders by his side to follow, when he walked towards Fang Xuejun over there with a spiritual position in one hand and a knife in the other, there was a bang in the distance, and the assassin who claimed to be in this seat folded his hands on his chest, and was forced out of the darkness of the alley.
The other party's figure crossed the light of the lantern, half-knelt on the ground, and then arched up, kicked under his feet, and the moment he stepped on the ground, his body rushed back like a cannonball, and collided with the black man with a leopard's head and eyes on the opposite side, and the skin and flesh and bones collided, and several black-clothed assassins nearby took the opportunity to pounce on the black man with sharp weapons.
"I'm Yan Zhang Yideβ"
The snake spear whistled and swung sideways!
A fan-shaped cold light swept out of the black man's hand, and the blood light turned into a fan-shaped splash, and the assassins who pounced flew back one by one, and the walls were swept by snake spears, drawing long ravines and splashing countless food crumbs; The wooden pillars under the eaves were also broken by the waist, dragging the eaves to topple over, and the tiles were scattered all over the ground, covering the lanterns that had fallen to the ground.
The leading assassin dodged in panic, his palms almost with an afterimage blocking the frantically pouring snake spear, and with every touch between the iron hand and the spearhead, sparks splashed one after another, and in an instant, in the shadow of the collapsed eaves, countless sparks rose in all directions and disappeared.
As soon as the whistling sound passed, the assassin waited until the snake spear had passed, he directly stretched out his hand, his iron hand grabbed the snake spear violently, and the moment he pulled the black man over, he made a fist with his other hand, swung it away, and hit the opponent in the face.
Iron Fist moves away.
Only then did the assassin clearly see that the face of the black man in front of him was full of the word "anger", and in the next second, Zhang Fei returned it directly with a hammer, pressing the iron palm blocked by the assassin, and slammed the assassin's door, blood splattered.
The Assassin jerked backwards with his mouth and nose clutched under the force of the impact.
"You ......"
The assassin covered his mouth and nose, his eyes revealing as he watched the opponent's decisive momentum change slightly, and he took a step back, the burly and vicious black man taking a step forward with the snake spear. The next moment he landed on the ground, his body was pushed up, the huge soles of his feet kicked out, the assassin returned with both hands, and was still pushed back a few steps, he finally stepped heavily to stabilize his body, and in his field of vision, the black man rushed towards him with a spear like a chariot, and his hands almost instinctively grasped.
The spearhead like a snake letter was held by his iron hands, wiping a series of sparks. The snake spear twisted violently, and the terrifying force directly pushed the assassin holding the snake spear into the air. Su Chen said: "Go!" Pulling Fang Xuejun to turn around and run, the two shield halberders raised their shields and moved, and the moment they left, Zhang Fei roared again and again, pushing the assassin into the shop behind, the counter and shelves were exploded by the air wave at this moment, and the assassin hanging on the spearhead, with the snake spear opened the circle, was thrown on the eaves like a rag doll, smashed down the tiles, and smashed heavily on the earthen wall, and the wall was directly concave outward, revealing the gap in the masonry.
"Huh!"
The corners of Dian Wei's mouth showed a cruel smile, he walked around with his halberd in both hands, slashed the two assassins to death, and returned to Su Chen's side to guard, "Zhang Yide is still so fierce!" β
Over there, on the side of the headless kneeling corpse, the figure of the upside-down Qinglong also looked over, and the moment he saw the black man, he murmured: "Yide ......"
Picking up the glaive knife and striding over, he didn't seem to be sure of it, and called again: "Yide?!" "The pace became faster and faster, more and more urgent, and then, rushing in.
The figure wielding the snake spear over there stopped, turned back in the direction of the sound, the mottled white tiger whiskers trembled slightly, Zhang Fei looked at the striding figure in disbelief, the angry tiger eyes gradually became wet and red, and the thick voice choked.
"Second brother!"
Then, as if happy, he laughed, and tilted his head back sharply, picking up the assassin at the spearhead, "Ah! Smashed to the ground, the latter let go of both hands, stepped on the snake spear and pounced on Zhang Fei, the latter directly abandoned the spear handle, grabbed the opponent's hands directly with both hands, twisted the iron hand and pulled it in front of him.
Then, facing the bloodied assassin, he opened his mouth.
- Drink off the sun!
"Get outβ"
The moment the short, but terrifying sound came out, it seemed to turn into a tiger's roar, and Su Chen, Fang Xuejun, and those shield halberders who were a few feet away all subconsciously covered their ears.
And the assassin who faced Zhang Fei was directly shocked and convulsed, fell backwards, and blood flowed out of his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears, but he was not dead, he stumbled backwards, fit and crashed into another shop, Su Chen's voice: "The halberders killed him!" The Assassin grabbed the beam with one hand, and watched more and more fires in the city spread in this direction, and whistled at the Assassin on the street.
"Thief, come down and fight me to the death!" Zhang Fei's voice resounded through the long street.
The assassin glanced at the figure of the tiger whiskers who were angry and roared at him, and immediately shuddered, and his eyes fell to Su Chen below, leaving a voice: "This seat will still come to you!" The figure swung under the eaves, soared into the air, landed on the nearest roof, and with another leap, the cloak sounded, and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.
On the long street, more than 20 assassins who were alive looked at the shield-wielding warriors, and they all opened their mouths to make biting movements, and the next moment, blood spilled from the corners of their mouths, their eyes were round, and they fell to the ground one after another.
"The Aragami Sect really has a set of raising dead soldiers." Su Chen pulled open a black-clothed assassin's face scarf, it was a young man, pinched his mouth open, and found that the tongue had been cut off, and there was a small black grain in the recess of the back molars, Su Chen carefully picked out the thing, this is the poison.
"Xuejun, wrap it in a handkerchief, and keep it alive."
"Oh." Fang Xuejun obediently took out a handkerchief and wrapped the black grains, as for whether it would crush this thing and cause poisoning on the skin, the woman didn't think about it at all. At this time, the light of the lantern was overcast in the afterglow, the woman turned her gaze, and two figures, one green and one black, stood under the eaves, so frightened that she hurriedly got up and was about to draw the knife, and as soon as she touched the handle of the knife, she was held down by Su Chen on the back of her hand.
She looked at the two majestic faces, one red and one black, and felt depressed for no reason, but she still moved to stand next to Su Chen and asked in a low voice, "When did you get acquainted with these two people again." β
Su Chen didn't answer, he put the knife back into the sheath, he picked up the spirit seat in his other hand, and before he could speak, the two tall and strong figures on the opposite side saw the name on the spirit position, and trembled, and the weapon in his hand unconsciously loosened and fell to the ground, and then, 'wow' cried out.
"Big brother!"
Guan Yu knelt down against the spiritual position, his hands stretched out in the air and trembled, "My brother was just plotted by the rats, and I only saw Yide today, why did I see your spiritual position again!" β
"Brother! My three brothers agreed to die on the same day, the same month, and the same year, but my brother really doesn't want you to die with you! Zhang Fei also cried out, "The Han family is not prosperous, how can you die with me and my second brother!" β
Su Chen was about to speak, when a wind suddenly rose behind him, blowing on his back, and the words he wanted to say suddenly changed, unfamiliar to the people around him, but falling on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were crying in front of him, it was a familiar tone.
"Yun Chang and Yi Demo are in a woman's posture."
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were kneeling in front of the spiritual seat, suddenly stopped crying, looked at the spiritual position with wet red eyes, and Su Chen, who was holding the spiritual seat, as if dazzled, saw the outline of their brother, and was looking at them gently.
"When I go back, I will talk to you in detail for my brother, and I will listen to his arrangements for the time being."
At this time, the surrounding streets were flooded with soldiers and horses.
Marquis Yun and Marquis Haixing arrived first, and their voices were shouting: "General! "In the other streets, the departing princes also came with their troops.
Seeing a black-clothed corpse, they dismounted one after another, ordered their soldiers to be under martial law, broke into the surrounding houses to search, and then strode to this side, and saw two big men who had stood up.
"General, but you're injured?"
Su Chen handed over the spiritual position to Guan Yu, who respectfully held the spiritual position, picked up the weapon with Zhang Fei, and stood on the eaves on the ground, as if he was standing behind Liu Bei.
"When I encounter a wave of assassinations, just like last year, I have long been used to it." Su Chen walked out of the eaves and bowed his hands to the several princes who had arrived, thanking them for hearing the movement and rushing to help.
When asked if it was the person of the Marquis of Changqi, Su Chen shook his head, "Don't guess, Marquis Chang's invitation to enter the city is the friendship of the landlord, don't guess the relationship, right now, the person who assassinated me, Marquis Yun should know." β
Wu Huizhi frowned, and then thought, "Desolate God Sect." β
Hearing him say this name, the rest of the people more or less also know a thing or two, last year, two Hou Ye, who had little power, died inexplicably, and they heard a letter from Yun Yaohou, mentioning this sect.
And behind the sect, it is implicit to the imperial court.
"It's all at this time, and I'm still thinking about assassination, so it can be seen that the emperor doesn't have any ability to do it." Haixinghou Zhao Guangwei kicked the corpse on the ground.
Zhong Ji, the confidant general of the Xianghou, also laughed.
"Then the Northern Expedition to Yanzhou, we are bound to win!"
Everyone talked for a while, and probably regarded this assassination as a last resort that the other party could use.
At this time, Duan Jin, the Marquis of Changqi, also brought soldiers and horses, and when he saw so many corpses, his face was very ugly, you must know that the person was invited to the city by him, and there was an assassination, so it was easy for others to think that it was his instructions, but fortunately, when he came over, Su Chen spoke away, and everyone did not blame him, so he put his mind at ease.
Soon, the people of the Marquis of Changqi stayed behind to clear the streets, and the rest of the princes simply went out of the city together, and only returned to the military camp with their troops when they got outside.
Su Chen was welcomed back to the camp by Li Dao and the cavalry, and the Xiliang army on standby was all unarmed.
The night was dark, the military camp became quiet, Su Chen sent Fang Xuejun back to the tent next to him, and led Dian Wei back to the Chinese army's tent, inside, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood on both sides waiting for him to come, his eyes were full of anxiety.
"Wait a minute!"
Knowing what the two meant, Su Chen asked Dian Wei to guard the tent, he took out the long incense he carried with him and lit it, inserted it into the ground, and slowly rose into the green smoke.
A figure appeared on the spiritual seat where the long case was placed.
