Chapter 233: Confusing
Under the moonlit night, seven or eight miles north of Taohuawu, there were bursts of fierce fighting.
At this moment, the three black-clothed masked men joined forces to besiege Lu Tai and Xu Zhun, and several people fought and fought, swords and swords, and the battle situation was stalemate.
Among them, Lu Tai was hit by three arrows, one of which was in the left back shoulder, piercing the pipa bone. An arrow in the right rib and pierced through the body. There was also an arrow in the left leg, bleeding profusely. He was pale, panting, and badly wounded. But even so, Lu Tai still gritted his teeth and insisted, hurriedly wielding his sword blade, and struggling with a black-clothed masked man.
Xu Zhun's situation was slightly better than that of Lu Tai, and he was only hit by an arrow in his left arm. The arrow feathers pierced his forearm, staining its entire arm a blood-red color.
Xu Zhunzheng is one enemy and two, and has no time to look around. I saw that he was holding the silver dragon sword tightly in his right hand, flashing and moving, flying up and down, and it was inseparable from the two black-clothed masked men.
The three black-clothed masked men are all masters, not only strong in martial arts, but also fierce in their moves and fierce momentum. Even if Lu Tai and Xu Zhun were in their heyday, they might not be able to win the second and third. What's more, at this time, they were seriously injured and physically and mentally exhausted, so the battle situation became more and more passive.
said that it was a few people fighting, but in fact, Lu Tai and Xu Zhun were struggling to support the joint efforts of the three black-clothed masked men to kill.
Just now, the East Cross Courtyard was attacked by the Flying Fire Meteor, and the two of them did not avoid life and death, relying on their high martial arts, they just managed to kill the Taohuawu in the chaos, and happened to see a group of masked people shooting arrows with bows outside the courtyard wall.
The two were furious, so they stepped forward to chase and kill, but the group of crossbowmen did not kill but retreated, and instantly scattered as birds and beasts, and fled in all directions.
Lu Tai and Xu Zhun were willing to give up? They pursued and killed all the way here, but unexpectedly, three black-clothed masked men with strong martial arts suddenly appeared halfway and blocked their way.
There was nothing else to say, the two stepped forward to fight, and the crossbowmen who had been hiding and fleeing from the west did not know when they went and returned, hiding around with hidden arrows and hurting people, so that Lu Tai and Xu Zhun were injured one after another. After that, there was a scene in front of me.
"Third child, stop him, Hugh let this old thing run!"
With a loud shout, a black-clothed masked man suddenly swung his knife to kill Lu Tai, forcing Lu Taisheng, who wanted to take advantage of the situation to escape, back into the battle.
Lu Tai was extremely seriously injured, bleeding countless times, and his physical strength was already exhausted, and at this moment he was even more staggering, his eyes were dilated, and he was drowsy. In the face of wave after wave of attacks by the black-clothed masked man, although he had the intention to kill the enemy, he could no longer lift half of his strength in his hands.
"Elder Lu, be careful!"
Xu Zhun shouted, and the silver dragon sword in his hand swung suddenly, instantly shooting out a fierce sword aura, approaching the masked man in front of Lu Tai.
With a loud "clang" sound, the sword qi hit the masked man's sword heavily, knocking the masked man back two steps back.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Zhun swung his sword hard, forcing the opponent in front of him to retreat, and then with a little foot, he flew to Lu Tai's side, stood with his back to him, and supported each other with his body.
The two of them were panting, sweating profusely, and they were already exhausted, but at this moment, they had to be strong and vigilant left and right to prevent a sneak attack.
"Elder Lu, how are you?" asked Xu Zhun quickly without looking back.
"Old man...... I can't hold it anymore. Lu Tai swallowed weakly, and at the same time, he covered his most seriously injured right rib with his hand, and slowly clenched the shaft of the arrow with his five fingers, and then his eyes were fierce, and he pulled it outward, and the arrow feathers came out, and at the same time a large stream of blood rushed out, splashing several feet. The sharp pain in his heart made him snort, and his wrinkled forehead was once again covered with a layer of beads of sweat the size of beans.
Lu Tai pulled out the arrow feathers, trying to stop the bleeding, but unexpectedly, the blood flow was even more rapid, Rao is left hand desperately blocked the wound, but the red blood was still like a river bursting its banks, "gurgling" along his fingers.
As if feeling Lu Tai's increasingly paralyzed body, Xu Zhun couldn't help but feel anxious.
On the other hand, the three black-clothed masked men stood around them lightly, watching with great interest as the two of them fought the trapped beasts.
"Big brother, they're dying!" a playful and hoarse voice suddenly sounded.
"I still think how powerful these people are, in the past, I heard how they boasted of the Central Plains martial arts? When I saw it today, it was really better to be famous than to meet, but it was just a group of people who were selling their fame and reputation. Haha......" another black-clad masked man mocked unceremoniously.
"If the people in the Central Plains Martial Arts only have this ability, there is really no need to make us rejuvenate. The burliest masked man said coldly, "It's so easy to kill them, so why do you need to do any more tricks? I've lost interest in them, let me shoot my arrows!"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Tai and Xu Zhun's faces changed suddenly. At the same time, around the inky woods, there were suddenly sound of "whooshing".
In an instant, dozens of sharp arrows fell from the sky like a storm, like a big net, covering the two of them several feet around, covering the clouds and avoiding the moon, roaring.
"You go!"
Lu Tai, who knew that there was no hope of escape, turned around suddenly, struggled with the last bit of strength, and slapped Xu Zhun on the back with a wave of his palm.
Xu Zhun, who wanted to escape, with the help of the power of Lu Tai's palm, was like a tiger with wings, like a sudden wind, and his body flew forward like lightning, and the speed of his body was three points faster than when he was in his heyday.
Before Xu Zhun could rush out of the arrow circle, several sword winds had already rushed to his face, leaving several deep blood cuts on his body in an instant.
Even so, Xu Zhun was still as indomitable as an arrow from the string, swinging the silver dragon sword in his hand wildly, slashing sharp arrows like Xiaoxiao rain, and struggling to resist the attack of the three black-clothed masked men in turn.
Although Xu Zhun can't completely defuse the threat, at least he can save the vital point and leave a life.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Zhun had rushed out of the range of the arrow rain attack. At the same time, more than a dozen shocking wounds were added to his body.
Xu Zhun, who could have escaped the catastrophe, was undecided, but suddenly looked back, only to see that Lu Tai had been hit by dozens of arrows at the moment, like a huge blood hedgehog, standing straight in the middle of the arrow rain, staring at a pair of unwilling old eyes, silently staring at the darkness in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.
The last rays of luster quickly disappeared from Lu Tai's eyes, and he lost his vitality in an instant. At this moment, he was full of holes and bleeding, but he did not fall until he died.
"Elder Lu......"
This situation and this scene made Xu Zhun feel like a knife, and he broke his liver and intestines. In his opinion, Lu Tai used his life in exchange for his life.
Xu Zhun wanted to cry bitterly, but in the end, he could only raise his head to the sky and let out a roar full of grief and despair.
"Don't be sad, you'll be going to be with him soon. ”
The masked man led by him snorted coldly, and then the steel knife flipped over, like a tiger pounced, and swept towards the dying Xu Zhun.
At the same time, the other two black-clothed masked men were not to be outdone, one left and one right, and they came together to attack.
"Brother Xu be careful, Liu Xunyi is here!"
A shocking roar suddenly sounded in mid-air, which woke up Xu Zhun and made the three black-clothed masked men stunned for a moment.
Before the words fell, several arrows had been shot into the sky around him, shooting towards Liu Xunyi, who was coming from the air.
"Sonorous!"
The silver light flickered, and several arrows fell to the ground in an instant. Liu Xunyi climbed into the water, like a shadow, and his figure flashed from the air like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, he had swept over the heads of the three masked people.
The three of them were shocked, and they changed their tactics one after another, and killed Liu Xunyi who fell from the sky. A sword and sword shadow, the two sides were close to each other, accompanied by a series of dense Jin Ge crashing sounds like a torrential rain, Liu Xunyi was one against three, but he was not weak at all.
In a hurry, Liu Xunyi swung his sword to force back the three black-clothed masked people, flew down beside Xu Zhun, quickly grabbed his waist with his left arm, and at the same time, the two of them rose to the sky.
At this moment, they were greeted by a new round of overwhelming arrow rain.
I don't know if it's God's favor, this round of arrow rain shot at Liu Xunyi and Xu Zhun at the same time, and also forced the three black-clothed masked people to retreat.
Taking this opportunity, Liu Xunyi did not avoid the chaotic arrows in his head, Qing Feng swung sharply, and the sword aura was like a rainbow, sweeping down countless sharp arrows in an instant, and forcibly tearing out a gap in the arrow net above his head.
Liu Xunyi grabbed the half-conscious Xu Zhun tightly, flashed out of the gap, and escaped under the angry gaze of the three black-clothed masked men.
"Big brother, maybe you can still ...... chasing now"
"No need!" the masked man at the head suddenly interrupted with a wave of his hand, "Our goal has been achieved, and the poor Kou Mo will chase after us." ”
"Then let them go?" said the other, reluctantly reluctantly, "they've fought us, and they might be able to guess the telling." If you don't kill them, will it ...... Leave a legacy behind?"
"So what? Now that the general trend has been achieved, do you think that with just the two of them, they can turn the tide and turn the tide? Hmph! Let's go!"
......
Liu Xunyi took Xu Zhun and rushed all the way to the Chenfu Inn.
At this moment, the night is late.
Xun Qin and the others had already settled in the Chenfu Inn, and when Liu Xunyi appeared in front of them with Xu Zhun covered in blood, they were exchanged for a burst of exclamation and wail.
Although Xu Zhun had many wounds, fortunately, he struggled to save the vital point just now, so he asked the doctor to deal with it in time, and finally saved his life.
After tossing for nearly an hour, Xu Zhun and other injured people had already fallen asleep peacefully, and Liu Xunyi, who was busy before and after, was finally able to pause for a while.
"It's so weird. Xun Qin poured a cup of tea, slowly pushed it in front of the uncertain Liu Xunyi, and said in a condensed voice, "Too many doubts, too many eccentricities, all of which make me puzzled." The only one that can explain all of this today is ...... There is only one person. ”
"You're talking about...... Ye senior?" Liu Xunyi groaned.
"Yes. Xun Qin replied, and then smiled evilly, "It's just that after this calamity." Do you still dare to go back to him and ask him what is going on? According to the current situation, it is very likely that Ye Tong has joined forces with Jin Jianwu and the Four Great Families, intending to deal with us. ”
Liu Xunyi looked at Xun Qin suspiciously, and thought: "But there is one thing I don't understand." ”
"Are you talking about Tang Gan's death?" Xun Qin Bingxue was smart and to the point.
"Not bad. Liu Xunyi nodded and said, "If Senior Ye joins forces with the four great families, then who killed Tang Gan?" I dare to assert that Tang Qian did not die at the hands of the Emei faction, and the real culprit was someone else. ”
"There's another possibility. Xun Qin's expression was straight, and he said in a condensed voice, "From beginning to end, it was Ye Tong who was making a stumbling block, the person was him, and the ghost was also him." ”
Hearing this, Liu Xunyi was suddenly stunned, hesitated for a moment, and hesitated: "Is it possible?"
"Until we find out the truth, we can speculate. Xun Qin said with a smile, "Suppose Ye Tong first killed Tang Gan, blamed the Emei faction, and then set up a mechanism in the guest room of Taohuawu, and then Caidie deliberately lured Huichun to live in, and then triggered the secret weapon to create the illusion that Huichun died in the revenge of the Tang Sect." In this way, Tang Gan's death was because he had a dispute with the Emei faction, and Huichun's death was the result of Tang Men's revenge for Tang Gan, and everything seemed reasonable. In the end, there was a fire in the East Cross Courtyard, but the people in the West Cross Courtyard suddenly disappeared, which easily led people to suspect that it was Jin Jianwu and the Four Great Families who deliberately set up an ambush to deal with the Xianwang Mansion and the Six Great Sects. In fact, in the final analysis, the initiator has always been Ye Tong. He did this with the intention of provoking the contradiction between the Tang Sect and the Emei faction, or ...... provoked the war between the six major factions and the four major families. ”
"Senior Ye is highly respected, and he is a martial arts master, why did he do this?"
"Why Ye Tong did this, I don't know. But to confirm my suspicions, it's easy. Xun Qin smiled mysteriously, "Find out the people of Jin Jianwu and the four great families, and confront them face to face." Their sudden disappearance is indeed suspicious. ”
Looking at Liu Xunyi, who was frowning and thinking about it, Xun Qin suddenly changed his words and asked curiously: "Are you sure there is no one in the West Cross Courtyard?"
"I'm sure I was ...... Brother Chen at that time"
As for this, Liu Xunyi's eyes changed suddenly, and half of his words came to an abrupt end.
Liu Xunyi looked nervously left and right, looked around, and without waiting for Xun Qin to ask, he suddenly asked urgently: "I've been back for so long, why haven't I seen Brother Chen and Brother Xu for a long time?"
seemed to be awakened by Liu Xunyi's words, Xun Qin's eyes suddenly changed, and the two looked at each other, with a thoughtful look of horror on their faces.
"Are they still in ...... Peach Blossom Dock?"
......
