Chapter 226: Revealed! The Last Hole Card! It's time for the drama to come to an end!
Inn.
The flames soared into the sky, and the rooms were lit up with fires, and from a distance, it seemed as if a fire dragon was entrenched in the inn, and the red firelight actually reflected the night sky red.
The door of the inn is suffering from what it has never experienced at the moment, and the members of the four elephants in the inn are desperately hitting the door with their bodies, even if the door is nailed with wood, but it is also gradually twisted and cracked in the impact again and again, and the gate is either about to be knocked open, or it may be smashed directly.
The desire to survive has made the members of the Four Elephants emit a stronger potential than usual.
And the Du family nursing home outside the gate is also waiting for it at this moment.
A large knife had been lifted, the tip of the knife pointed straight at the door, and once the door was smashed open or shattered, their blades would be the first to pierce into the door, and a second door would be constructed with the blades.
At the same time, behind them, archers had already placed their arrows on the bowstring, waiting for the order to draw their bows at any time.
The atmosphere of slaughter spread in the street in front of the inn.
There was a shout inside the inn, and there was silence outside the inn, just a door, as if the inside and outside of the inn had become two worlds.
At this time, behind the archers of the Du family, there was a horse shaking its head and sneezing, and on top of the horse, a young man in a strong suit was sitting.
The man is in his twenties, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome appearance, his eyes are hidden and sharp, he is very sharp, and he carries a spear behind his back, and the tip of the spear is tied with a red ribbon.
"The Third Son."
A burly man with a plate axe in hand came to the horse, bowed and said, "The door of the inn will not last long, and it will be broken." β
Du Cheng looked at the gate that was trembling and trembled, his fingertips slowly rubbed on the reins, and after a little muttering, he said: "Prepare the oil and pour it on the gate, and then set the gate on fire...... Don't they like to bump? I'd like to see if they dare to hit a door that is burning with fire! β
Hearing Du Cheng's words, the man's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Du Cheng with admiration, and said, "The third prince has unparalleled means, and his subordinates admire him." β
"It's not a match."
Du Cheng's expression was calm, and he said lightly: "The scope of this inn is very large, and there is also a vacant space in the backyard that can be avoided, so that the flames cannot quickly burn them directly to death, but can give them a chance to breathe, so I kept the gate and this building, and did not burn it directly, just to prevent the gate from being burned down, and then there is no obstruction, and they can rush out directly." β
"But now that the gate is about to be smashed, it can no longer play the role of blocking the enemy, my son can only let it play its last value, and delay for a short time, but the gate can't bear the flames, and can only delay for a little longer...... Once the gate is completely burned down, they will definitely rush out desperately, and it will not be easy to stop them at that time. β
The man hurriedly said: "The flames of the inn have been formed one after another, giving them less and less breathing space, if you can delay a little more breathing time, you can make a few more enemies be burned to death, the young master's plan is enough to let them kill dozens or even hundreds more, looking at the young talents in the world, I am afraid I can't find a second one who can make hundreds of people die as casually as the young master." β
When Du Cheng heard the man's words, his chin raised slightly, as if he was a little useful, and he said, "Go, hurry up, if they smash the door, it will be too late." β
"Yes!" The man did not dare to delay, and hurriedly took the axe and ordered the others to pour fire oil on the door.
Then he directly picked up a torch and looked at the wooden door that was completely soaked with fire oil, and the man sneered: "You guys are unlucky enough, you met the third son, and the gods will not be able to save you tonight." β
As soon as the words fell, the torch in his hand directly crossed an arc in the air and slammed into the door.
Just listen to the pop sound.
The flame of the torch touched the oil of fire, and in an instant, the flames flew directly to all directions, engulfing the entire door in the blink of an eye.
And the flames centered on the door, and quickly spread to the door frame and window, and the entire three-story inn attic began to become a new target for flames, and the last bit of the inn where there was no fire also began to burn.
At this time, I saw that the door that had just been knocked down and trembled suddenly quieted down at this moment.
Exclamations came from behind the door.
"Fire ...... The door was also on fire. β
"What to do? How else is this hitting? β
"What should I do when I see that the door is about to be slammed open, but it is on fire?"
The panicked voice sounded in the inn, and the anxious tone could feel the despair of the other party anyone who heard it.
After all, the door is about to be slammed open, and it looks like it is about to be able to escape from the fire.
Who knows, but at this moment, the only channel of hope in front of him has also turned into a sea of fire, and hope has turned into despair, which is enough to collapse the hearts of most people.
Seeing this scene, the burly man with the axe on his shoulder sneered directly, he quickly returned to Du Cheng's side, and said: "Childe, they have given up hitting the door, and their subordinates heard their shouts, full of despair, I am afraid that now they themselves have to give up." β
When Du Cheng heard this, he looked at the door that was engulfed in flames with his hidden sharp eyes, his white face was red by the firelight, and he said slowly: "If everything goes well, this fire can at least make them lose more than 100 people, plus the previous sneak attack and fire, even if they can rush out next, the number of people will definitely not be too much......"
"And they are exhausted from running for their lives, and their mental and physical exertion is extremely high, and we are waiting for our work...... With so many factors, we can't afford to lose! Tonight's victory and defeat have been decided. β
When the burly man heard this, he only felt excited, and he hurriedly said: "It will definitely go well, there is no way for this Shenshan County to be beyond the control of my Du family." β
He looked at Du Cheng and said with joy: "Childe will command Ruo Ding tonight and annihilate hundreds of thieves at the minimum cost, once this matter is reported, Childe's name will be famous all over the world!" Maybe the son doesn't have to start as a soldier, he can be valued by the military, so that he can directly step into the ranks of military generals, realize the wish of the head of the family, and open up the road of military generals for the Du family! β
When the calm Du Cheng heard these words, he finally showed a different expression, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he said with a smile: "If this is really the case, you will perform well tonight, and this son will not treat you badly." β
When the burly man heard this, he immediately showed a look of surprise, and he hurriedly bowed to Du Cheng, just to thank Du Cheng.
But at this momentβ
"Kill!"
A killing roar full of murderous machines suddenly came from a distance.
The night was silent, and these killing roars, like thunder on the ground, came into everyone's ears very clearly.
"Where's the killing roar?"
The burly man looked up blankly.
Bang! Bang!
At the same time, I saw that the door, which had just been quiet and had been burned by the flames, suddenly made a violent noise again.
The door was slammed, and the trembling was even greater.
The already fragile door is even more fragile when it is burned by the flames, and it looks like it is about to collapse at any time.
Seeing this scene, Du Cheng's calm expression couldn't help but change, he quickly judged the situation, and said, "The enemy has reinforcements!" β
"What? Reinforcements!? β
The burly man let out a direct exclamation.
Just now, he also packed the ticket and said that there would be no accidents and that it would go well, but in the next moment, enemy reinforcements came, was this stepping on a little bit to slap himself in the face?
"Newspaperβ"
A Du family spy rode directly and said anxiously to Du Cheng: "Son, it's not good, two streets away from here, suddenly a house door was opened, and more than 200 people rushed out of it with big knives and were rushing towards us. β
"Judging by their clothing, they are exactly the same as these thieves trapped in the inn, they should be their accomplices!"
"Do they really have reinforcements!?" The burly man's face changed completely.
The door was violently slammed again, indicating that the enemy did not give up hope of rushing out at all, but plucked up all his strength to smash the door in one go.
In this case, their people can't move at all, after all, they still need to stop the enemy at the door, so that the enemy can easily break out of the inn.
But the enemy's reinforcements came, and there were two hundred of them, and so many reinforcements were killed, and they had to divide their men to fight them.
But once the manpower is divided, it is useless to have less, and it will not be able to stop these reinforcements at all, what about more...... Once the door is slammed open, they can't stop the enemies inside the inn.
Now that the flames have just been connected, the number of enemy casualties is not so large, once the enemy rushes out at this time, their plan will be directly shattered, and at the same time, they will face the dilemma of flanking the front and rear.
At that time, it is not a matter of whether they win or not, but whether they can live or not!
The situation took a turn for the worse, and the burly man didn't know what to do.
He couldn't help but look at Du Cheng on the horse and said, "Childe, what should we do?" β
Du Cheng's brows tightened at this moment, the sharpness in his eyes quickly turned into solemnity and heaviness, and he quickly mobilized the knowledge of the art of war in his brain, wanting to find a way to deal with the predicament in front of him.
However, he could not find any way.
He has already brought out all the people who can be brought out by the Du family, and it is impossible for the remaining people of the Du family to leave the Du family again...... After all, the Du family also has to guard against other accidents, and once the huge Du family has no power to protect itself, nothing will happen.
But the Du family couldn't give him any more troops, and his existing strength alone was not enough to stop the members of the Four Elephants Organization in the inn, and then stop these reinforcements of more than two hundred people who suddenly appeared.
Former wolf and then tiger!
Du Cheng couldn't help but think of this word, it was the first time in his life that he encountered such a sudden accident that made him feel at a loss.
His eyes kept flashing, and he finally gritted his teeth and said, "There is no way, there is no solution!" β
"We can't divide our forces to stop those reinforcements, but if we don't stop them, they will rush here, and even if we don't want to, we will be entangled by them and scatter our forces...... Seeing that the door is about to be smashed, once our forces are scattered, we will definitely not be able to stop the enemy in the inn, and once they rush out, we will face a catastrophe! β
The burly man couldn't help but feel nervous, he subconsciously held the board axe tightly, and said, "What about us?" β
Du Cheng's expression flickered, and he quickly made a decisive decision: "Get out of here...... Return to the mansion, use the high courtyard wall of the mansion as a line of defense, and fight with them. β
The burly man's face changed directly: "This ...... Doesn't this shift the battlefield to the Du family? β
Du Cheng looked at him coldly: "Do you think I am willing to do this?" This kind of battle is bound to cause some damage to my Du family, but if we don't do this, all of us will die...... Once we die, they will not let go of the Du family, but at that time, the Du family will not have us as a person, how can we fight with them? β
"It's really ...... moment"
The burly man's heart hung up, and he looked at Du Cheng nervously, and then heard Du Cheng say in a deep voice: "It's not about the damage to the Du Mansion, it's about whether my Du family will suffer a catastrophe!" β
These words directly made the burly man feel a chill, and he rushed straight to the heavenly spirit cover, making him feel like thunderbolt in an instant.
He never thought that just the reinforcements of more than 200 people would make things so bad!
He couldn't calm down anymore, and hurriedly said, "Yes! Then go back to Du's house! β
Saying that, he couldn't help complaining: "It's all Lin Feng's fault!" If it weren't for Lin Feng begging our Du family, how could the head of the family interfere in this matter? How could we be in such danger! The head of the family is just too kind, and as soon as the others ask for help, they go to help. β
"Results...... He Lin Feng didn't know where to hide and was at ease, but we were facing such a dangerous situation. β
Du Cheng's eyes flickered, and he did not respond to the burly man's words.
After all, as a descendant of the Du family, he knows more inside information...... They helped Lin Feng, not for Lin Feng at all, but because they had to make a move, and at the same time, because the people of the Four Elephants Organization followed their Du family's spies to Du Mansion, Du Mansion had already jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it, even if it was for themselves, they had to take action.
But these secrets are only known to the descendants of the Du family, so the subordinates complained about Lin Feng, and he also let the other party complain, splashing all the dirty water on Lin Feng, and letting Lin Feng bear the consequences of all this defeat.
The glorious image of the Du family must be maintained.
"Order: Go down ......"
Du Cheng looked at the sparks splashed by the violently slammed door, and saw that the good situation was fleeting, even if he was unwilling, he could only grit his teeth and say: "Withdrawβ"
But before the word "retreat" could be uttered, suddenly, he heard a voice that surprised him.
In the silence of the night, the killing roar that was originally full of murderous intent suddenly turned into exclamations and fighting sounds at this moment, and the sound of weapons clashing came from afar.
Although it is not too real, but the night is too quiet, Du Cheng has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his ears and eyes are stronger than ordinary people, and he still hears it.
"Did I hear me wrong?"
The burly man couldn't help but turn his head and look in the direction where the voice came from, he didn't dare to be sure: "Childe, I seem to hear the sound of battle......"
Du Cheng's brows jumped, and he couldn't help but say, "You heard it right." β
"Is there really a sound of fighting!?"
The burly man was directly stunned: "How can there be a sound of fighting?" Could it be that someone has fought with enemy reinforcements? But where did they come from? Isn't there no way for the Du family to send more troops? β
Du Chengmo held the reins, pondered for a moment, and said, "Could it be that the people from the yamen guarding the city gate came to support?" β
The burly man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "It must be them!" Now only the Yamen still has the strength to fight! But the city gate is not close to here, how could the people from the yamen arrive so quickly? Could it be that the prefectural order sensed the danger in advance? β
Du Cheng shook his head, he couldn't figure it out either.
"Newspaperβ"
At this time, another Du family spy rushed over.
He hurriedly said to Du Cheng: "Childe, when the enemy's reinforcements were halfway through, they were suddenly stopped by a group of masked black-clothed people, there were hundreds of black-clothed people, they took a sneak attack, and directly killed the enemy's reinforcements by surprise, and now those reinforcements have been stopped, and they can't come to support for the time being!" β
"Men in Black!?"
The burly man was stunned: "There is no need for the officials of the yamen to be masked, right?" They are not blinded to the light...... Aren't they members of the Yamen? β
Du Chengjunxiu's face could not hide his confusion and surprise, he and the burly man had the same thoughts.
He frowned and said, "Do you know the origin of these men in black?" β
The spy hurriedly said: "They said that they came to exterminate the thieves in the name of Lin Sizheng. β
"What!? Lin Feng!? β
The burly man's eyes widened violently, and his face was filled with even more stunned expression.
"The person sent by Lin Feng! Could it be that Lin Feng had expected that the enemy would have reinforcements in advance, so he arranged the manpower to block it in advance? β
Just now, he was still complaining about Lin Feng, saying that Lin Feng was hiding and free, so that their Du family was in danger, but in the blink of an eye, the people arranged by Lin Feng came out to block the reinforcements...... He only thought that he was not in trouble with something tonight, and why did he keep saying the wrong thing.
Du Cheng's expression was also constantly changing, his eyes with a hint of edge, his expression was very complicated, there was astonishment, surprise, and a trace of hidden jealousy and jealousy, but soon, all his expressions were hidden.
He looked at the door again and said, "Since Lin Sizheng also has hole cards, then we will seize the time they have bought for us, stop these thieves, and do our best to let them die in the fire of the inn." β
Rumble!
At this time, the fragile door of the inn was finally smashed.
Mars rushed abruptly in all directions.
At the same time, several people wrapped in flames let out a howl of pain and rushed out of it.
Seeing this scene, the burly man and Du Cheng couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, they realized that the four elephants organized these people, and they were banging on the door with their lives.
The door slammed open, and they couldn't survive.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Du Cheng quickly regained his composure and gave the order.
In an instant, the archers who had been prepared for a long time shot arrows.
The arrows pierced the flame-encased quadruple members, pinning them to the ground, preventing them from charging into the crowd and staining the others with flames.
And as these fire men rushed out, behind them, there were members of the four elephants who were not stained with a little spark, and they seized this moment and rushed out desperately.
But Du Cheng had already prepared, and what was waiting for them was a sharper sword.
The narrow door of the inn directly became the most terrifying meat grinder.
Du Cheng knew very well how much the Sixiang members in the inn wanted to rush out, and he knew even more about the consequences of these people rushing out, so his eyes flashed, and he said directly: "Give up, with my Du family guarding, you can't come out...... In addition, I have the bad news for you, your reinforcements have been stopped by the people who are being arranged by the Lin Temple, they cannot come to support you, and you have no hope. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The backyard of the inn.
An area completely soaked with well water.
Kuisu was still wearing a black robe, but the black robe was already soaked with water, and it was directly close to Kuisu's body, revealing Kuisu's strong figure.
Kuisu held a wet handkerchief in his hand, covering his mouth and nose with it while listening to his subordinates' reports.
"This Du family's third son, Du Cheng, has some ability."
In spite of this danger, Kuisu remained calm, and said, "When he saw that the door was about to stop us, he lit it with fire oil to stop our collision and delay time...... Seeing that we had slammed the door open, he didn't give us a chance to rush out of the door, and just blocked us at the door, and now he seized the opportunity to hit us with words and try to weaken our morale...... Even if he was placed in the ranks, compared to some generals, his reaction was not bad. β
The thin monkey listened to Kui Su praising Du Cheng, and he was about to jump to his feet anxiously: "Xingjun, why are you still praising him!" Now that he's out there, we'll not be able to get out for a while. β
"And this flame is getting stronger and stronger, if you don't go out, I'm afraid there will be danger here, he wants to burn us alive."
Rao is scarred face with few words, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious at the moment: "This Lin Feng, how can he be so insidious!" Xingjun secretly left people outside, just to deal with sudden accidents...... But who knows, he Lin Feng also has arrangements, and now our reinforcements can't come, and we can't get out, how can this be good? β
Kui Su listened to the words of his henchman, looked at the raging fire, felt the discomfort of the scorching fire, and said in a special tone: "I finally understand Lin Feng's intentions, he doesn't want to avoid our pursuit at all, he wants to kill us back." β
"What? Anti-kill!? β
Skinny Monkey and Scarface were both shocked.
Kui Su said: "Think about all the things we encountered tonight, one by one, one by one, in fact, it is the consumption and encirclement of us one by one, until now, even the reinforcements I hid outside have been stopped by Lin Feng, Lin Feng clearly wants to make this place our burial ground!" β
He sneered, "I originally wanted this to be his burial place, but I didn't expect that he had the same idea as me...... It's really worthy of the stand-in I chose, it's really worthy of the official position that I can't even do as my body, he is more ruthless than my real body! β
The thin monkey's heart tightened, and at this moment, for the first time, he questioned his thoughts...... He has always said that fate determines that the stand-in will inevitably die at the hands of the ontology, but the current situation makes him feel that things don't seem to be like that anymore.
But Scarface seemed to realize something, and he couldn't help but look at Kui Su and said, "Xingjun doesn't seem to be worried at all...... Could it be that Xingjun still has a backhand? β
"What? Xingjun still has a backhand? β
When the thin monkey heard this, he hurriedly looked at Kuisu.
I heard Kui Su say lightly: "Think about the power that Lin Feng used tonight." β
"At the city gate, he can stop the strength of the hundred people I sent, and he has at least used the strength of the hundred people."
"And then there are Jin Fenglu, who are the strength of one hundred and fifty or sixty people."
"After that, there are more than 300 people from the Du family."
"Finally...... It is the strength to stop my reinforcements of 200 people, at least more than 100 people, otherwise they will not be able to stop them at all. β
"In this way, there are four forces...... But Lin Feng first came to Shenshan County, which is a small county town, and its powerful power is limited, that is to say...... These four forces, not surprisingly, were already the limit of what Lin Feng could use. β
"Otherwise, we are trapped in a good situation here, if Lin Feng has other forces, he should also be sent out to fight with the Du family, in this way, we can be completely trapped here at the minimum cost, and let us be buried in the sea of fire."
But Lin Feng didn't ...... With his ability, he would never miss such an opportunity, but he didn't do it, which means that he has no extra people in his hands, and his hole cards have been used up. β
Listening to Kuisu's words, both Thin Monkey and Scarface couldn't help but nod their heads again and again.
Kui Su continued: "The two armies are facing each other, and the chessboard is playing against each other, and the competition is whose hole cards can be saved to the end...... The first person to use the hole cards will be unreservedly displayed in front of the other party, so the person who still has the hole cards can also be targeted. β
The thin monkey and Scarface glanced at each other, they finally understood what Kuisu meant, and this guess made them excited and excited.
The thin monkey couldn't help but say, "Xingjun...... Do you really have your hole cards? β
Everyone else looked at Kuisu expectantly.
Seeing that the corners of Kui Su's mouth were slightly hooked, his gaze swept over everyone, and he said slowly: "Lin Feng, as the number one confidant of my Star Palace, intercepting and killing him is such an important matter, with such a cautious habit of the Star Palace, how can it be possible to only arrange for you people?" β
"What!?"
The pupils of the thin monkey and the scarred face jumped suddenly at this moment.
"Could it be!?" They couldn't help but cry out in shock.
Kui Su walked out slowly, and said, "Lin Feng is too smart, so if you want to hide him, you must first hide yourself, and when you don't know, Lin Feng will naturally not know...... Let's go, it's time to put an end to all this farce tonight. β
Next, let Lin Feng take a look...... My last hole card. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
A room with flickering candles.
Lin Feng, who was reading a book, raised his head as if he had a feeling, he glanced at the dark night outside, and said, "Fifteen, what time is it?" β
Zhao Fifteen hurriedly said: "It's already ugly, and the husband just passed by not long ago." β
"When it's ugly...... Before you know it, it's been this hour. β
Lin Feng put down the book, got up suddenly, he stretched his waist, and said slowly: "Everyone, you've been stuck here and only listening to information, you're tired of it, right?" β
Sun Fujia, who had a tacit understanding with Lin Feng, couldn't help but move in his heart when he heard this, he seemed to understand something, and hurriedly said, "Zide, do you mean it?" β
Lin Feng nodded to Sun Fujia, he smiled and walked out directly: "Let's go, we should also go out and join in the fun, there are not many opportunities for all the forces of such a wonderful Quartet to gather...... It's time for this big drama to come to an end. β
