Chapter III
Lou Gengzhong saw that the people of the Lou clan in the courtyard had fallen to the ground, and then saw that Lou Gengnian, who was fighting fiercely with Qiu Sihai, could only support it hard, and had no strength to fight back. Gritting his teeth and jumping onto the eaves, the black-robed man on the eaves saw someone jumping up, and hurriedly swung his knife and slashed, and Lou Gengzhong blocked with a horizontal sword. Where is the general black-robed person who is the opponent of Lou Gengzhong, who is the five-fold heavenly cultivator of the "Five Phases Dao", the sword light flickered, and a group of black-robed people fell from the eaves one after another. Lou Gengzhong took the gap to the back of the house, swept to the east, the sound of chasing and killing behind him was endless, and occasionally there was a sound of sneering, knowing that the enemy had put a hidden weapon, he listened to the sound and discerned the line, and avoided them one by one.
Lou Gengzhong knew how well the terrain of Shouyang Villa was, and he had already thrown off the people of the Demon Sect behind him, and then came to a big wall, and said in his heart: "As long as you cross this wall, you will have the hope of keeping my Lou's bloodline." Turning his head to look at Yun'er on his back, he saw that he was not crying, he was extremely well-behaved, and he felt a little at ease at the moment. Thinking of the eldest brother Lou Gengnian, I can't help but worry in my heart, I am afraid that something has happened, thinking about the more than 100 people in the Lou family, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape the clutches of the Demon Sect.
Although my heart is broken, I can only cheer up. At that moment, the soles of the feet exert force and fall on the wall like flying birds. At this time, he suddenly felt a strong wind coming, and when he was frightened, the soles of his feet exerted his strength again, and his body rose diagonally upwards, only to see a whip shadow sweeping from the soles of his feet, and a black-robed man holding a thirteen-section soft whip standing outside the wall. Seeing that the blow missed, the black-robed man shook his wrist, and the soft whip drew a circle in the air, and rolled towards the place where Lou Gengzhong landed again. Lou Gengzhong was in the air, with nowhere to borrow strength, and when he saw that the soft whip was about to wrap around his legs, he had to swing his sword and slash at the whip body. The blades intersected, and with a bang, the soft whip made of fine iron broke in response, but the whip head continued to gain momentum, and still hit Lou Gengzhong's right leg.
Seeing that Lou Gengzhong was injured, the black-robed man threw down the broken soft whip, gave a whistle, and retreated backwards. Lou Gengzhong only felt a tingling pain in his calf, followed by a little numbness, and his heart was horrified. A silent bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and then at the head of the whip that had fallen to the ground, covered with iron nails, faintly glowing with a faint blue light. Several black-robed people jumped out from the side, and they complimented their horses: "The leader is a good whip." The black-robed man laughed twice and said, "He has been poisoned and can't escape." At this time, there was a noise in the distance, and the black-robed man knew that his companions would be able to arrive soon, and they no longer attacked, and several people just watched Lou Gengzhong from a distance.
Lou Gengzhong was anxious, and said in his heart: "I don't care if I give up my old life today, it's just how to protect Yun'er behind my body, as well as the secret book of "Five Phases Dao" in my arms, I must not fall into the hands of traitors." Now that I am in a desperate situation, I can't say that I can only destroy the secret book, and as for the lives of my grandfather and grandson, I have to pray for the heavens. At that moment, he regained his spirits, tore off his shirt, wrapped it around his calf, to block the flow of poisonous blood to his whole body, and tightened the belt of his clothes, tying Yun'er behind him more tightly, and the bricks rushed down the mountain. When the black-robed man saw that he was about to flee, he just followed closely behind, and only waited for him to be poisoned before making a move, while running, he kept whistling in his mouth to guide the direction of his companions behind.
On the official road leading from Luoyang City to Shouyang Mountain, dozens of cavalry officers and soldiers galloped towards Shouyang Villa, the middle-aged military attache headed by him looked anxious, and the rest of the people did not speak, blindly stepping up to urge the horses to gallop, seeing that Shouyang Mountain was in front of them, they traveled for a while, and the heavy rain stopped slightly. One of the cavalrymen suddenly said, "Captain, there is a fire in the woods ahead." The middle-aged military attache checked and saw that there were sporadic fires in the woods, and there seemed to be a figure crowded, so he hurriedly ordered all the officers and soldiers to divide into two ways and cover up in the woods.
Lou Gengzhong escaped all the way out of Shouyang Mountain, he was already sweating profusely and exhausted, the clouds behind him seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and his right leg was completely unconscious at this time. At this time, Qiu Sihai had also led the crowd to catch up. At this time, I suddenly saw another group of people in front of me to intercept him, and I couldn't help but see the darkness in front of my eyes, and I almost wanted to faint.
The middle-aged military attache saw a person in the forest staggering and rushing, and he was very familiar with his figure, and when he saw the person's appearance clearly, he shouted: "Second uncle." He jumped down from his horse and strode towards Lou Gengzhong.
Qiu Sihai saw that some officers and soldiers had arrived, and he couldn't help but be suspicious, if a large number of officers and soldiers arrived, he was afraid that his party would suffer heavy casualties today, and he would not be able to get the secret book of "Five Phases Dao". Seeing that the officers and soldiers were only forty or fifty horsemen, he felt a little calm, and hurriedly called a few leaders, and ordered them to lead the men and soldiers to divide the road, outflank them left and right, and surround the cavalry and Lou Gengzhong's grandfather and grandson.
At this time, the middle-aged military attache had already picked up Lou Gengzhong, and the young man named "Yun'er" couldn't help but shout excitedly when he saw the middle-aged military attaché: "Daddy, daddy." Then he burst into tears. The middle-aged military attache comforted Yun'er while injecting a piece of true qi into Lou Gengzhong's body, seeing Lou Gengzhong waking up slowly, he hurriedly asked: "Second uncle, how is the situation in the village?" Although Lou Gengzhong was grief-stricken, this was not the time to elaborate on the details, and said: "Ji Yuan, the Demon Sect is powerful, go quickly, take Yun'er quickly." ”
This middle-aged military attache is the fourth son of Lou Gengnian, named "Lou Jiyuan", Lou Jiyuan has been practicing "Five Phases Dao" since he was a child, but unfortunately his qualifications are not good, and he only reached a heavy heaven at the age of fifteen, and there is no benefit in the next few years, and it is only "Five Phases Dao" to this day Erzhongtian's cultivation, so he joined the army very early, determined to promise the country with his body, and those rough men in the army, he was a family heirloom, and he was proficient in swords, guns, cavalry and archery, but he was particularly outstanding, but he was not good at patting horses, and he was always depressed for more than ten years, and he made countless meritorious contributions but only got the rank of a knight lieutenant.
Today in the army on duty, originally planned to return to Yangshan Villa after the handover and the clansmen to gather, who knew that before the shift suddenly received a report from the army to explore the horse, there are more than hundreds of unknown origin to the direction of Shouyang Mountain to assemble, see that the situation is not good. Lou Jiyuan knew that the Demon Sect had resurged, and he was trying to do wrongs against Shouyang Villa, so there was no doubt that they were Demon Sect bandits. Busy asking for instructions from the upper seal, he wanted to send people to exterminate this gang of bandits, but he usually had a bad relationship with the chief, and only said that he intended to use public weapons for private purposes, and ignored them. When he was helpless, the brothers in the camp were all indignant when they learned of this, and after some discussion, they decided to rescue Shouyang Villa with him. I didn't expect it to be late.
At this time, even though Shouyang Villa was close at hand, Lou Jiyuan couldn't enter, so he had to pick up Lou Gengzhong and hand it to the knight next to him, and then put Yun'er on his horse, turn over and get on the horse. Qiu Sihai had been watching from the sidelines for a long time, and probably understood the relationship between the middle-aged military attache and the Lou family, and said, "Lou Shaoxia, are you going to leave like this?" Lou Jiyuan's eyes were red, but he didn't answer, slowly pulled out his saber, pointed at Qiu Sihai and said word by word: "Today's revenge will be avenged in the future." Then he turned the horse's head and shouted, "Charge." Then all the horsemen raised their sabers and rushed forward.
The people of the Demon Sect are all on foot, and they usually kill people without blinking, where have they ever looked at the officers and soldiers in their eyes, and they will kill them when they say they will kill, and at this time, they saw a high-headed war horse rushing over, and they are good at fighting alone, they have never seen such a scene, they are all in a hurry, and they don't know what to do. The cavalry had rich combat experience, and they slashed and slashed, and only one charge came to the avenue. Lou Jiyuan glanced back at Shouyang Villa and led the cavalry to gallop east.
Qiu Sihai was suffering from the lack of horses around him, and seeing that he couldn't catch up, he returned to Shouyang Villa. Turning over the boxes and cabinets, Shouyang Mountain turned upside down, and there was no trace of the secret book of "Five Phases Dao", it was determined that it was taken away by Lou Gengzhong, and he was furious and burned Shouyang Villa, and ordered people to go around to find out the whereabouts of Lou Gengzhong and his party.
It was late at night when everyone came to Luoyang City in one breath, and when they counted the number of people, everyone was unscathed, and they were secretly glad in their hearts. Lou Jiyuan knew that he had violated military law and would die if he went back, so he said to everyone: "Brothers, I am grateful for helping each other today." This is goodbye, and where you are affected, if there is a coming day, you will be rewarded. Everyone also knew his intentions, and they all laughed and said: "It's just a big board, and the brothers' butts can stand it." Then they dispersed, and waited until tomorrow the gates of the city were opened, and then they entered the city and returned to the camp.
Seeing everyone away, Lou Jiyuan was so confused that he had to let Lou Gengzhong and Yun'er ride together, and lead the horse slowly forward. I don't know how far I walked, I suddenly heard a "bang", and when I looked back, it was Lou Gengzhong who fell from the horse, still unconscious. This way, he only cared about running away, but he knew that Lou Gengzhong was already poisonous. Seeing that there was a ruined temple not far from the roadside, he hurriedly carried Lou Gengzhong into the temple, dragged over the door panel that had collapsed to the ground, and put Lou Gengzhong on it. found hay to make a torch for lighting, and then hurriedly stepped forward to check Lou Gengzhong's injuries. I saw that Lou Gengzhong's entire right leg was black and purple, and there was also black gas on his face.
At this time, Lou Gengzhong was deeply poisoned, and it was only because of his internal strength that he saved his life and persisted until now. Lou Jiyuan hurriedly used a knife to cut a hole in Lou Gengzhong's calf, and streams of black blood flowed out immediately, and the smell was extremely fishy. He also sat Lou Gengzhong on the door panel, put his hands against the back of his heart, and injected a stream of true qi into his body to help him expel poisonous blood. After a long time, the black qi on Lou Gengzhong's face receded, gradually showing red, and he woke up after a while.
Lou Jiyuan hurriedly asked him how he felt, and Lou Gengzhong said: "I have been deeply poisoned, and the poisonous gas has already attacked my heart, but I am afraid that my life will not be long." Lou Jiyuan stood up, and wanted to send internal force to help him heal, but Lou Gengzhong hurriedly stopped: "Don't waste your internal strength in vain." I have something very important to say to you now, and you should listen carefully. I told me in detail about today's Shouyang Villa. The more Lou Jiyuan listened, the more frightened he became, and the more he listened, the more sad and angry he became, until he was in pain at the end. The young man Yun'er on the side didn't understand what happened today, but after listening to Lou Gengzhong's narration, he also knew that his mother, grandfather, and those uncles and aunts who usually loved him very much, and the brothers and brothers who played together all day long were all killed by the bad guys, and they cried even more.
