Volume 2: The Golden Scroll Chapter 43 The duties of the Wen family

The night cage is in the sky, the mountains are lonely, everything is speechless, in front of the Nanwen Mansion of Weiju, the guests are endless, and the excitement is extraordinary.

Tomorrow is the fiftieth birthday of the old owner of Wen, the dinner party set up in the front yard is coming to an end, the east courtyard for the guests to live is overcrowded, and the west courtyard, which was originally the residence of Zhuang Ding's servants, has also vacated some rooms to accommodate guests.

Compared with the east and west courtyards, the backyard of the Wen Mansion is a different scene. Within the courtyard walls, the seven-storey Star-Picking Tower is like a huge barrier, isolating the noise in front.

The second son, Wen Haocai, stood quietly in front of the building, and several teams of Zhuang Ding under his command quickly and silently guarded their respective posts. In front of the Star Picking Tower, behind the top wall of the tree, there are figures stirring. The bright posts are dark and dark, and each is in its place.

Standing in front of the building, Wen Haocai's heart was not as calm as it appeared. Famous families are like a fierce beast in gold armor, and under the prosperous coat, there are often other appearances that are unknown to people.

The night before yesterday, Wayne, the world's first thief "Black Bat", had been captured, and Liu Zhutou left on official business. He thought that as long as he had two more days, until his father's birthday banquet was over and the secret treasure was given to the dynasty, there would be no major incident. But who would have expected that he only relaxed for a moment, and last night's solid star-picking tower was actually touched to the seventh floor without anyone knowing!

The other party actually regarded the heavy mechanism as if it were nothing. If it weren't for the last mechanism on the top floor, the people of the Wen Mansion would not have known that their treasures had been stolen. This is really a great shame in the history of the Wen Mansion.

The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, especially in front of so many birthday guests, so the Wen Mansion claimed that it was just a fire. Wen Haocai looked at the mansion behind him, his face becoming more and more gloomy.

At that time, Wenfu was built according to the mountain, and it was divided into the front yard, the east and west courtyards, and the back yard. The mountain ends in the backyard, and beyond the backyard wall is the cliff wall, just like the current situation in Wenfu, and if you take a step back, you will be crushed. If the secret treasure that has been guarded for many years is stolen, the aftermath is unimaginable.

When Junan Villa was first built, he was only a ten-year-old boy. He vividly remembers how his father led the family from the thriving capital to this deserted mountain.

On the night of their stay in Junan Villa, their father gathered the three brothers in a secret room and told them with a rare solemn look that the secret treasure in the Star Picking Tower would be guarded with the lives of all the Wen family. Although his father did not say what the secret treasure was, the sentence that it was the duty of the Wen family to protect the secret treasure was deeply engraved in his heart.

More than ten years have passed, and the Wen Mansion has jointly resisted countless large and small enemy attacks and invasions for this secret treasure. This secret treasure has already penetrated the blood and sweat of the Wen family.

When he was younger, he had also been curious about the secret treasure, but now, that curiosity has long since disappeared.

Wen Haocai's eyes flashed with insistence, as long as he stayed tonight, after his father's birthday tomorrow, the imperial court would send someone to take the secret treasure away. No matter how amazing the secret of that secret treasure is, it has nothing to do with the Wen Mansion.

The formation has been quietly deployed, and Zhuang Ding has all performed his duties. However, at such an important time, the fourth brother, who was the soul of the array, was nowhere to be found. Wen Haocai had a lingering boredom in his heart, why did I work so hard every time?

"Enemy attack!"

With the outpost's alarm, Wen Haocai's pupils shrank suddenly, and he had no time to care about anything else.

Several figures broke into the courtyard with the wind, and after careful counting, there were as many as eleven people. The offenders were all dressed in black tights and ghost masks, dressed like hellish ghosts.

"Formation. Wen Haocai snorted and drew his sword in his hand. The Zhuang Ding who were guarding their respective positions immediately drew their swords in unison, and the future offenders surrounded them.

"Rush over!" the leader of the ghosts snorted, his voice was low and crisp and magnetic, and his voice turned out to be a woman. Her mask was very different from the rest of the ghosts, carved in black gold, with gold thread strokes, shaped like a dying phoenix, noble but hideous, shining with a strange golden light in this dark night.

The demons took out their blades one after another and pounced like wolves.

Wen Haocai, who was standing in the center of the formation, raised his long sword and shouted solemnly: "The frost sword captures the brilliance." ”

"Frost Sword Shine!" Zhuang Ding raised all his swords and drank with a bang.

Countless silver rays poured out from under the sword forest, and the chill suddenly came, and the frost sword crashed into the ghosts like a torrential rain, and the agitated sound of the sword clashing suddenly sounded, and the already dark sky lit up.

This move was obviously unexpected by the ghosts, and as soon as the two sides came into contact, some ghosts suffered a secret loss.

"Be careful, this is the Wen family's frost sky sword array!" A burly man among the ghosts knew it well, and shouted loudly: "Don't break in, keep your own position, and advance through the gaps." ”

After the initial slight chaos, the ghosts began to familiarize themselves with the formation and gradually leveled the battle.

Wen Haocai, who was in the center of the formation, looked at the situation and hurriedly changed the formation, "Manhua Frost Hidden!"

The figure flickered, and the Zhuang Ding quickly shifted their shapes and changed positions.

Frost flowers bloomed from under the sword, and the broken rays flew one after another, as if frost fell, and the ghosts were suddenly lost in the frost flying in the sky.

In the Flying Frost Array, the phoenix-ornamented ghost head girl stood safely under the protection of the burly man.

Through the flying frost, she couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Every Wen family Zhuang Ding is not very strong. However, its swordsmanship is intertwined, and it can be combined into a huge sword net that covers the sky and the sun. She had seen Wen Haowu use this move when he was competing with the cold sword, but she didn't expect that a hundred people would use it together, but it was another kind of power. This Wen family's frost array is gorgeous and tight, and it is really rare to see the ghosts with unique skills in the entanglement.

Wen Haocai became more and more frightened the more he fought, Zhuang Ding on the field was the elite of the Wen Mansion, he had always practiced diligently, and the cooperation was perfect enough to be comparable to an army, but he couldn't capture the other party for a long time. Looking closely, all the ghosts who come to commit crimes are all agile and extraordinary, and there is no weak person. Each of the ghosts has different martial arts, and it is clear that they are not from the same sect. The enemy is as powerful as ever. Where did the other party come from, and where did they find so many masters of various factions?

Without Wen Haowu as the sword formation of the soul, it is like a puppet lacking the soul, and the power of the sword array is greatly lost. The urging of Manhua Shuangyin consumes extremely energy, and the skills of Zhuang Ding are obviously not as good as those ghost masters, if they continue to fight for a long time, the sword array will break without a fight!

Damn, why do I work so hard every time! Thinking of the fourth brother who disappeared at that critical moment, Wen Hao was furious, gritted his teeth and held on, not retreating.

He let out a loud shout and flew to the front of the formation, "The Wen family's sons and daughters obey the order, the survival of the Wen Mansion is all about this battle!

The main general is the soul of the sword array. Seeing that the second son, who was not good at martial arts, personally charged into battle, the Zhuang Ding were inspired by his momentum, and although people were constantly injured, they did not retreat.

For a time, the battle was stalemate. Zhuang Ding couldn't take down the ghosts with superb martial arts, and the ghosts couldn't break through the frost array that was in full swing.

The long war is unfavorable!

The phoenix ghost head girl was also thinking about the same question.

Of the ten ghosts who came with her, only four were her cronies, and the remaining six were all hired by her at great expense. Although the individual combat ability of the ghosts is extremely strong, they are obviously not suitable for such a large sword formation. Moreover, this is just in front of the Star Picking Tower, if you can't even get past this formation, how can you crack the other party's back move......

Thinking of this, the phoenix ghost head girl gave an order to the burly ghost man who had been guarding her side: "You can't waste time here, you must pass as soon as possible." ”

"Yes. The burly ghost man replied in a deep voice. The muscles of his whole body burst out, and he sank his waist immediately, and suddenly exerted his strength.

"Boom!"

The vigorous and blazing energy erupted like a flame, and the frost and mist within three zhang suddenly melted, and all the Zhuang Ding who collided with its strength flew out upside down.

Wen Haocai was not weak in facing the enemy, and after being shocked, he hurriedly commanded Zhuang Ding to fill the position. Such a fierce move will not last, as long as it can resist the past, the enemy will have nothing to do.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The burly ghost man strode forward and continued to exert strength. He seemed to be shrouded in a layer of dark gray flames, and his strength was as strong as a hurricane. Zhuang Ding, who had just made up for it, was so shocked that he flew upside down again.

Seeing this, a demon who made a short axe and a ghost who made a sword attacked together, and the sword formation was suddenly rushed through a gap. Another ghost girl saw the opportunity and was quick, and the group flicked straight and rushed through the gap with a strange figure.

Wen Hao saw that the situation was not good and just wanted to change the formation, but he was entangled by a ghost who made a double fist, and saw that the sword formation was torn open by the burly ghost boy, and the ghost head and the three ghosts passed quickly.

When the rest of the ghosts saw their accomplices breaking out of the formation, they suddenly lifted their spirits, and suddenly used their own tricks, and the sword formation immediately faltered.

At this moment, a person dressed in white like a fairy descended, stabbing a beautiful and gorgeous sword in the air.

The silver sword, with a faint coldness, was like a cool night breeze blowing across the earth, and a pale colored firefly swept up.

The ghosts present couldn't help but be excited, and they were all attracted by this beautiful sword.

However, none of the ghosts are mediocre, and they have awakened in just a moment.

However, it was just a moment of less than half a second, and the sword intent of the man in white suddenly exploded!

Countless ice star debris rushed down, and the agitation caused by the burly ghost man just now was replaced by clear frost. This brilliant sword, like a needle of the sea god, hurriedly held the sword array that was about to break.

"The Fourth Young Master is here!" someone among Zhuang Ding exclaimed in surprise.

Wen Haocai breathed a sigh of relief, retreated, and gave up the position of the main general, and at the same time complained loudly: "Where are you? Why are you here now?"

"Without me, you can't even command the sword formation?" Wen Haowu replied coldly.

Wen Haocai choked for a moment, and said angrily: "The other party has already five people who have broken into the Star Tower!"

"Then let's clean up all the rest first. Wen Haowu said coldly, swinging his sword.

......

"Are you sure the secret treasure is in this building?" downstairs from the star picker, the phoenix ornament ghost girl asked the ghost girl.

"The subordinates are confirmed. The ghost girl replied without hesitation, "According to the previous intelligence and the analysis of the Wen Mansion's defense, that treasure must be hidden in the Star Picking Tower." Last night, his subordinates traced from the second floor of the Star Picking Building to the top floor of the Star Picking Building, but nothing was found. Then there is only one possibility left: the seven-story Star Picking Tower is just a cover, and the real secret treasure should be hidden on the first floor of the Star Picking Building, which is the most easily overlooked!"

"Let's get started. The phoenix ghost head girl waved her hand and stood in all directions with the other three ghosts.

"Yes. The ghost girl bowed her head and replied.

Walking to the door of the building, she took out a scroll and unfolded it for a long time, and it was "The General Guide of the Organ"!
