Chapter 49: Fight to the Death
"Shadow, it's not good!" Wen Qihua broke through the door and gasped.
Shadow withdrew the bone-piercing nail that he had pinched between his fingers for a moment and was about to punch it back into his palm, and asked lightly, "What's wrong?" ”
Wen Qihua cried with a sad face: "It's over, it's messed up." ”
It was supposed to be in the puppet palace to prepare for the move, but Wen Qihua appeared here......
The shadow frowned, and soon understood what he meant: "What should you do directly?" Wen Qihua "pounced" and knelt down, and said dejectedly: "It's too late, it's already dark, they're about to start fighting, it's too late." ”
The shadow got up and took the mask and put it on, and his tone was still calm: "Now I'm going to the puppet palace, can you go with me?" If you go, get up, tell me what you pass by on the way, and you will cry with your master after the rest." ”
Wen Qihua was stunned and asked, "Are the two of us useful?"
The shadow scribbled a few words on the rice paper on the table, and whistled a carrier pigeon: "I don't know, but I don't want to disappoint the master." He ignored him and walked straight out. Wen Qihua woke up from his sluggishness and hurriedly got up and chased after him.
————————————————————————
At the top of the Puppet Mountain, in the Dark Palace, the battle has begun.
The light and dark palaces are each a faction, and the costumes are almost the same, except for the different decorations of the cuffs and plackets. The fight of thousands of people, against the backdrop of the dark night and cold wind, the embellishment of killing and blood, is really a wonderful scenery.
The ragged beggars appeared in the dark palace in advance when they shouldn't have appeared, and rushed directly into the crowd to start fighting. After a brief period of turmoil, the two forces, which had been evenly matched, simultaneously turned their attacks to the beggars who suddenly appeared.
"What's going on?" the demon duck stood in the treetops, his pupils shrunk slightly, "What about Wen Qihua?"
The killers looked at each other, but they didn't say anything, and waited quietly.
Blood Kill thought for a while, and asked out loud: "Hall Master, these people are obviously messing around on their own, and they didn't follow the original agreement. Do you want to send someone closer to see it?"
The demon duck nodded slowly: "It's better to go and have a look." ”
The young man in white standing beside the bloody killer said loudly: "I'll go." ”
The Demon Owl shook his head: "Shallow marks, you should be careful in your movements." ”
Shallow marks said: "I understand. The figure flashed, sliding down against the tree, approaching the scuffle without attracting anyone's attention.
The white clothes should have been the easiest to spot at night, but he was never noticed, and only a few of them could see the shallow marks. Shallow Scar quickly finished probing and returned to the tree: "Wen Qihua is not here, he should have been separated from them a long time ago." The number of beggars is different from what Wen Qihua said before, nearly half less. The indiscriminate attacks were also incoherent, and Wen Qihua may not even have made the specific arrangements clear to them. ”
Bloodkill frowned: "Then they came by themselves." ”
Shallow marks nodded: "I'm afraid so." ”
Yu Shu clenched his teeth when he heard this: "It seems that you still know the arrangement, right? What is this? A group of old beggars rushed in to fight in a mess?"
The Devil bowed and confessed: "I'm sorry, it seems that there should be a problem with the arrangement now." ”
Yu Shu said angrily: "I'm not interested in knowing if there is a mistake in your arrangement, I just want to know what you plan to let us do? Go up and work hard, don't forget what promise your son made!"
The demon duck glanced at the killer behind him: "We split half of the people to work hard, and we will make up for the mistakes." ”
Yu Shu sneered: "With just a few dozen of you, can you beat hundreds of people?"
The demon duck said: "If we can't beat it, we will only kill people until we kill enough two hundred people." After a pause, he half-turned around: "Hidden sin." ”
A man crossed over from the tree behind him, stood firmly on the branch, bowed and said, "My subordinates are here." ”
The demon duck lightly ordered: "Take everyone in the Hidden Character Hall, kill enough two hundred people and then come back to me." ”
Hidden sin: "The subordinates receive orders." ”
The demon duck looked at the blood kill again, and his expression was still calm: "I will let the Hidden Character Hall pave the way for you, and it will be up to you when I finally fight with Luo Changxiu." Bloodkill nodded in understanding.
Yu Shu's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he didn't accuse any more, and snorted heavily and twisted his face.
Ascarlet rubbed his wrist: "I'll go too." ”
The demon duck said: "Yes, save your strength, and I will be able to use you for a while." The implication is already clear - he will give up all the killers he brought with him to ensure that the assassination that has been arranged in advance will not be affected.
Shallow Scar's gaze swept around the people fighting below: "I'll go down first, let them wait, and wait for someone to die again." Now they are all very strong, and it is too bad for the killer. I went to open a gap, and the hall master saw an opportunity for them to insert it. ”
Demon Owl Bow: "Well, then I'm sorry for you." "Opening a gap among thousands of people can't be completed without too strong martial arts. And as the shallow mark of the right envoy of the Stygian Valley, among these people who came, his martial arts were second only to the Demon Duck, which was enough to be competent. The Devil Bird is in charge of the overall situation, and it is inconvenient to do it himself, so it is obviously the right decision to do it by the shallow mark.
Without further ado, Shallow Marks removed the two hooks from his waist, rolled over, and inserted them directly into the crowd. At the same time as the hook of both hands was swung, with the "click" of the mechanism, a short sword popped out of each elbow, and quickly took away his own life.
The number of people in the Dark Palace is actually a little stronger than that of the Ming Palace, and it has the advantage of location, so it should have the upper hand. But because of the presence of Mo Wai and Tang Xiaoyu under the Ming Palace, the Ming Palace is not a weak force, so that the strength of the two is temporarily equal.
However, the struggle for the position is an internal strife, and the emergence of the beggar gang belongs to the external enemy. The strength of the beggars gang must not be said to be weak, but in the face of the numerical advantage of more than half of the puppet palace, it is also doomed to final defeat. No matter who you kill now, the most important thing is to attract the attention of the puppet palace and keep the beggars alive as long as possible. Only by giving the beggars, a group of beggars who are fighting alone, have time to adapt can they show a greater effect.
Shallow Scar was originally a raw face, and he was wearing a white dress that was so conspicuous. He killed indiscriminately and indiscriminately and tore a crack in the crowd. The attention of the two forces of the puppet palace was really on him, and the pressure on the beggar gang was suddenly greatly reduced.
In the final analysis, the puppet palace is only an organ sect, and its actual combat ability will definitely not be strong. The shallow light power is also a hundred existences in the rivers and lakes, and it is closely attached to the backs of the people around him and other places that are not easy to be discovered, constantly drilling into crowded places, completely ignoring the puppet palace's best mechanical secret weapon. The puppet palace was caught off guard, and really let the shallow mark kill dozens of people at once, and the formation was chaotic.
The demon owl had been watching the actions of the shallow mark, and when the shallow mark's physical strength was gradually decreasing, he suddenly commanded: "Hidden sin, half." ”
Hidden Sin turned around and said, "Hidden Word Hall, come out and go with me." The killer, who had long been called to wait, silently followed, and approached their "prey" by the darkness of the night.
At this time, Shallow Scar also pulled away, and turned around to shake off the people who might be following him, and then returned to the tree and squatted on the branch to breathe. The demon duck glanced at him, and saw that his breath was only slightly disturbed, and his face did not change, so he was a little relieved: "Well done." ”
Bloody clenched his fists, looked at the crowd below who quickly adjusted the formation, filled the vacancy and returned to the original rhythm, and gritted his teeth fiercely: "Not enough, still not enough." ”
Shallow Scar evened out his breath, raised his head and looked at the blood kill: "The number of people is too disparity, our side is all assassinated by the master, and the physical strength does not allow it." Even if you try your best, one pair of ten is not enough to make up for the loopholes. He added: "I still have two altar masters to be responsible for, and I basically have no spare strength after that." ”
Blood Kill gave Shallow Scar an approving look, and turned to the Demon Owl: "Is it useful?" he asked about the five Blood Character Hall killers that the young man in Tsing Yi had ordered to stay behind and be responsible for the "cleanup". According to the current situation, the role that those five people can play is also extraordinary.
The Devil Bird shook his head: "Wait a little longer. Blood Face, Blood Song, Blood Moon, Blood Liu, the four of you prepare and go with me for them in a while. Remember, as long as the physical exertion is less than 50%, or the strength will drop to less than 80% of the peak due to injury, withdraw immediately, and do not pause for any reason. "Four people should be.
The blood slaughter also picked out six people, instructed them to prepare, and then asked, "Hall Master, don't you need me to do it?"
The demon duck said: "You don't have enough physical strength, you won't be able to recover for a while, forget it." ”
Blood Killer also knew his shortcomings, so he had to agree: "Yes, my subordinates understand." ”
Shallow Scar was still squatting, his right hand on his left wrist and recovering his internal strength: "Hall Master, it is more than enough for you and the two people of Blood Killing to be responsible for Luo Changxiu and the left and right Dharma protectors, how about separating one person to massacre?"
Demon Duck and Blood Kill glanced at each other and asked, "What do you mean?"
Shallow Scar said: "The three of us all have the strength to die with them, and it will be much easier to get one." ”
The demon duck thought for a moment and nodded: "It's okay, then let me come." I don't think it's very difficult to kill the three of them, at most they will be injured. You should do your best, it is best to protect me after the war, who is not enough to protect myself. ”
Shallow Scar moved his fingers and said faintly: "As a killer, never imagine that someone will save you." ”
The Devil smiled: "No, what I taught you won't be forgotten first." Jumping back, the four killers on standby immediately followed.
"Shallow marks?" Bloodkill suddenly spoke.
Ascarlet looked up at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
Blood Killer asked, "Do you have any other plans with the hall master?"
Ascarlet stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "You're thinking too much. Turning the hook in his hand, he said leisurely: "I'm a little worried about Wen Qihua......
Blood Kill looked at the battle below, and when he saw that he denied his own question, he didn't ask more, and followed his words: "Wen Qihua will be beaten to death by Gongzi?"
Shallow Scar spread his hands and said, "I can't say, it's possible." ”
Bloodkill clenched his fists: "I can only do my best." ”
Shallow marks gave him a helpless expression, and then said, "I'm going to rest and recuperate." ”
Bloody said: "Hmm. ”
Shallow Mark reminded: "Don't think too much, take it easy, maybe the situation is not so bad, and the rescuers may be on the way?"
There was a faint hint of a smile in Bloodkill's eyes: "As a killer, never imagine that someone will save you. ”
Shallow Scar smiled and said, "Yes, it's good if I didn't say it." "No more chattering and delays, a few longitudinal and far-flung away.
The demon duck soon came back, and when he saw that the shallow mark was gone, he asked casually, "Did he go to rest?"
Bloodkill said: "Yes." ”
The demon duck nodded to indicate that he understood, and did not speak again, watching the battle situation side by side with the blood kill, his face solemn.
Shallow Scar went to breathe and rest, and the Demon Owl and Bloodkill didn't speak. The rest of the killers naturally didn't say much, and each quietly hid in the canopy with their breath, always waiting for the order of the hall master.
After the Demon Bird returned, the six killers who were sent out returned to the tree in turn after their physical strength was exhausted to fifty percent, and the Demon Bird did not send another killer out again.
The beggar gang, which had already lost most of its members, was slowly decreasing at this time, and it was not even the previous three CDs. And these thirty percent of the beggars are basically the most skilled in martial arts. If they want to leave, the puppet palace may not be able to stop it, and it will not stop it.
Whether the five Blood Character Hall killers left behind can wipe out all of these people is secondary, and the number of people who survive in the Puppet Palace is far greater than the number they can deal with. And so it goes...... Bloody slaughter is a little unthinkable. If these people are all folded here, then the Liquor Hall will really be seriously damaged, and it will even take nearly ten years to recover......
As the killer of the Liquor Hall, the blood slaughter has long abandoned the fear of death, but he can't be indifferent to the rise and fall of the Liquor Hall.
The fingers of the blood killer shrunk in his sleeve clenched a few points, and he wanted to speak, but when he saw the indifferent eyes of the demon duck, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and slowly took a big breath to force himself to calm down.
The devil's expression was indifferent, not because he was not in a hurry, but because he couldn't panic.
When a killer loses his cool, he abandons his life.
And what they bear on their shoulders is no longer the life and death of individuals, but the lives of dozens of killers behind them and even the future of the wine hall.
He can't panic, he can't be afraid, he can't back down.
