Chapter 224: Ambush
After that subconscious "ah", Yu Meng maintained the same posture and fell into a long period of sluggishness. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
A quarter of an hour later he asked, in a tone that was difficult to hear, "Did I bring out my sword?"
Lili retrieved his sword from under the straw mat of the wheelbarrow. The splendid gems set in the scabbard and hilt sparkle in the light of the runes. She walked into the room, gave the long sword to Yu Meng, and knelt down again.
Yu Meng held his sword and was silent for a while, saying, "I don't blame you. Let me be quiet. ”
Wusu and Lili glanced at each other and quietly withdrew. But before closing the door, Wu Su poked his head in again, lowered his eyes and said, "Young Master, before the Taoist priest killed the master, he said that he helped that Li Yunxin do things and was an accomplice of the demons. We are afflicted because of him. ”
Yu Meng glanced at Wu Su with dull eyes, and whispered, "It's not to blame him." ”
So Usu withdrew.
They sighed softly at each other. Then he carried a small sword that was still stained with blood, and walked through the barren garden.
I can't remember whose family the garden belonged to. It is located in the middle of nowhere, next to a section of the city wall. It has been abandoned for a long, long time, and is full of green weeds and trees. The two girls were frightened and tossed for a long time tonight, but they didn't feel sleepy at this time, but their minds were numb, and they only had one tendon to think about things.
They roamed the ruined garden in the sun-like light, beware of the thugs and rangers who might wander in.
Surrounded by the rustle of grass and trees shaking in the wind, there seemed to be the shouts of people in the distance. Wu Su and Lili walked around the garden and returned to the room where Yu Meng lived, and found that the young master had not come out yet, and they felt like two fallen leaves.
Such a night passed with the crow of chickens.
By morning, there was still no one chasing after them.
Usu changed his clothes and walked out the street from the back door of the abandoned garden to investigate the situation—and found that the street was not so chaotic anymore.
Someone was patrolling the streets. The people patrolling the streets are not officials, and there is even a face that she is familiar with.
Then she realized that it was the other families in the city who had joined forces to maintain order. His master had wondered if he would become the rightful controller of Weicheng, but now it seems that the answer is no. It was the hounds and sharks who controlled Weicheng.
She walked for a long time and found a noodle shop. I bought some breakfast, but I frowned. I don't know if my young master can eat this kind of thing.
But he was not in a hurry to go back, but asked for some news.
I learned that Yu was not the only one who died last night, and it was not only Yu's family that was destroyed. The people who funded the Divine Dragon Sect and helped the Divine Dragon Sect a few days ago were almost all killed. The Taoist priests didn't care what kind of hardships those people had—for example, they thought that maybe the backstage of the Shenlong Sect was the Taoist system, and that the heads of other families might be coerced by the Yu family—the Taoist priests didn't care.
They killed those who had helped the Dragon Cult, "only the first evil". But just like the Yu family, the Taoists kill one person, and the hounds and sharks kill many people. Wusu didn't know if the Taoists understood this.
The Taoist priests were no longer interested in her young master. But there will be many, many others who will be interested. For the first time in more than a decade, Usu felt that the city had become terrifying and unfamiliar, like a monstrous beast. And she herself was like dust.
The morning sun rose, drowning out the light emitted by the runes that hung high above the city. This made Wusu feel a little more at ease. She left and returned to the ruined garden before the streets became lively.
I saw Lili sitting on a low pier outside the house with a small sword in his arms, staring forward--Mu Mu looked like he was too sleepy.
A spider weaves a tiny web between her ponytail and the wall, and tiny drops of dew hang from the silk.
Wusu walked over, brushed the cobwebs off her head, stuffed two warm sugar cakes into her hands, and asked, "Where is the young master?"
"Sit still. Lili said. She stared at the candy cake for a moment before realizing what it was, and took a bite into her mouth. But apparently it didn't taste anything, and it was swallowed as "food".
Usu reached out and touched his sister's face gently, pushed the door open and walked in.
Yu Meng raised his eyes to look at her, and lowered his gaze again.
The young master of the Yu family held the gorgeous long sword in his arms, like holding a cane or a tree to lean on. His eyes were large, and they were even bigger at the moment. It's like getting angry with something you can't see, and it's like you're practicing some weird exercises. He stared at his hand as if it were hiding a big secret.
Usu called at him, he shouldn't. The girl gently rested the snack wrapped in oiled paper on the legless wooden table next to his bed, walked over to him and sat down slowly.
Yu Meng did not object, nor did he take any action.
The two of them sat in silence for a while, and Wu Su slowly leaned his head on Yu Meng's shoulder, squinted his eyes, and said, "Young Master, we are all so sleepy. ”
Yu Meng has not yet responded to her.
Wusu leaned into the air - she was next to Yu Meng, and Yu Meng fell down with her head up, her eyes still open.
The girl was so frightened that she almost screamed, and immediately reached out to probe his breath - only to find that his breathing was even and steady.
She was stunned for a moment...... One thing comes to mind.
Her young master, Yu Meng, studied under Lu Gongjiao, the sword of Bishui. Wusu and Lili also practice martial arts, but they know that they are not as clever as their own young master. And how clever is their own young master? They don't really know. I know the legend about the young master's master, Lu Gongjiao.
It is said that when he cultivates the water-splitting sword to an extremely high depth, he can cultivate to the point of the unity of man and sword. There is a rumored saying that Nalu Gongjiao sleeps with a sword on weekdays, and his soul will be in the sword. When relatives and friends came while he was sleeping, the sword did not react. If a villain with bad intentions comes, the spirit in the sword will have a sense of it, and it will kill when it flies.
In the past, it was only a rumor - a hero like Lu Gongjiao, who would dare to really test him.
But now Wusu sees his young master......
She was stunned, subconsciously covering her mouth and not speaking for a long time.
Until I heard the sound of the door opening—I poked my head into it, and my face turned blue from sleepiness and worry. She opened her eyes wide and gestured to Usu, who quickly stepped out with her sword and closed the door.
"Look. "A dozen steps away from immediately pointing to the door of this house.
Usu looked over and his face changed.
The road leading to the entrance was originally paved with bluestone slabs, but now there are wild grass growing in the cracks of the stone slabs. But it's not as lush on both sides, and you can see the ground. And he saw a small burden lying on the slate. The furoshiki of white flowers on a blue background has been untied.
"I just leaned on and accidentally squinted for a moment. Lili said, "When you open your eyes, it's there." I opened it and saw that there were fifteen taels of silver, two bottles of gold sore medicine, eight plasters, and this—"
She spread out her hand, a small piece of paper in her palm, half the size of a palm.
Some words were written crookedly on the piece of paper - her young master was better than this when he was five years old when he was just literate: "Yu Longshou met Da Nan, and he couldn't repay it, so he sent some silver money to medicine to show his heart." ”
Usu frowned, thinking that there was at least one typo in it, maybe two or three. But the meaning can be seen clearly - someone said that Yu Meng Yu Longshou was in trouble, so he sent money and medicine to express his heart.
But it also means......
Usu and Lili glanced at each other uneasily.
It means that someone has discovered their hiding place.
Yu Meng used to be the dragon head of the dart guild who didn't care about anything. To say that the master of the Yu family has many enemies with him, there are really not many enemies of the young master of the Yu family. Not only is there not much, but the popularity is also very good - who would hate a young master who smiles and spends money at every turn.
Perhaps a family that had been too indifferent in times of crisis and wanted to say something now. But it seems that he is a small person, and he only dares to do it to this extent, and he does not dare to get into trouble.
But the problem is that the man knows they're here......
What about the others?!
Maybe that person threw a burden here, and also reminded them that they should not stay here for a long time!
It was at this time that two sounds of breaking the air came and went straight to the two girls.
Wusu and Lili had been on guard before, and immediately jumped forward at this moment to avoid the hidden weapon. But the sound didn't stop, and it followed. The two girls flashed left and right, and in a few breaths, they were forced to leave the room two feet away by more than a dozen hidden weapons one after another.
The other party seemed to deliberately drive the two of them away, and he didn't know how many people were in ambush.
Wu Su took advantage of a gap and lost his vitality and shouted: "Young master, someone is coming!"
But Yu Meng in the room didn't react, but the breath she took when she jumped and moved dissipated. I couldn't avoid it at the moment, so I could only use a small sword in my hand to open an oncoming hidden weapon.
But when the hidden weapon collided with the sword, it was not the sound of metal colliding.
With a pop, a white mist burst out, enveloping Wusu all over his face.
When I smelled the smell, I knew it was bad, and I hurriedly shouted: "Close your eyes!"
She and Lili closed their eyes and held their breath together, jumped out of two steps diagonally, rolled into the barren grass, and finally temporarily left the range of the hidden weapon.
But it's far away from the room where Yu Meng is.
"Lime. Lili gritted his teeth, feeling that the other party was extremely inferior.
The sneak attacker appears.
Eight of them stood up from the grass in the distance, apparently coming in through the back door—Usu didn't know if he had been exposed when he went out. Maybe she was cautious on weekdays, but now she ...... One is sleepiness, and the other is worry. Many things can't be done well with enthusiasm and ruthlessness. She is sleepy, and her eyes and ears are not as good as before, which is something that secular people cannot change.
There were eight people on the other side, and she and her sister were sleepy and tired. But even on weekdays, the two of them may be able to easily escape from the hands of these eight people, but they may not be able to protect her young master from these eight people—they are not Taoist priests or swordsmen. All they could rely on was the small sword in their hand, as well as martial arts and courage. But in front of eight people, these things can't make them one against ten. It's impossible even for the enemy four.
Those eight people, no matter how you look at it, are not those gangsters and rangers who can be easily frightened last night.
Wu Su and Lili didn't know what would happen to her young master—they didn't know what would have happened to them if they had experienced it themselves.
At this time, one of the strong men among the eight people spoke as he walked slowly towards the house.
His tone of voice was slow and clear, and his voice was full of malice and arrogance: "It is said that the Yu family is superior in dragon head martial arts. In the end, he had to rely on two female dolls to protect him. If you have real skills, you really want to understand what a powerful method is. ”
Lili knew that the other party was provoking them to speak, so that they could find a position. But he couldn't swallow this breath. Then he pinched his throat and breathed up, so that the voice was so ethereal that he couldn't tell where it came from: "Leader, you stupid thing, I'm afraid of dirtying my young master's hands." If you want to talk about real skills, huh. Those who have seen the true skills of my young master are now drinking tea with Yan Jun, you don't think you have a long life!"
The strong man was slightly stunned when he heard her words. But he quickly calmed down and laughed: "Your young master has not shown up or spoken so far...... Even if he really has the ability, what if he is seriously injured and is about to die? But someone spends money to buy his life, but he doesn't give money when he dies! I think you are also bluffing-brothers, ignore those two little sissies, rush in and catch Yu Meng!"
A few people behind him had slowly surrounded the room by this time. Hearing what he said, they all responded in unison, and they were about to rush into the house.
Wu Su and Lili's hearts squeezed to their throats.
The two girls weren't worried at all that their young master wouldn't be able to beat these eight people. However...... At the moment, I don't know if my young master is willing to fight these eight people.
His cowardly appearance, Wusu and Lili both felt that he was dead and didn't want to live anymore - I really don't know if it was right or wrong to transport him out of a stun last night!
Just as they couldn't help it and were about to rush out, they heard another voice coming from the roof behind them.
Wusu and Lili were taken aback - what kind of kung fu did the two of them not notice?!
Look back. Then he saw a man standing on the roof. The man was dressed in black, wearing a black hat and holding a black knife in his arms. He has a broad, powerful chin with stubble on it. It's like sleeping in the open for days and nights, and I can't take care of my appearance.
"I saved this man. The man in black said in a deep, powerful voice.
After saying this, he put the brim of the hat on the top hat with the handle of the knife, and then revealed a pair of shining eyes: "Those who know each other, go farther." ”
Wusu and Lili were a little stunned, not knowing where this person was sacred, and why his tone was so big.
The eight people were naturally even more stunned - they didn't know when the other party appeared, nor did they know what the other party's identity was. But the calm momentum of the man in black shocked them. The strong man who spoke before raised the short knife in his hand and pointed at him from afar: "Your Excellency has such a big breath, and you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue." The person we want to take from the Eight Tigers of Weishui - how can Your Excellency protect it?"
