Chapter 6: The Death Order is Out
At the moment when Yang Ning was about to draw his sword, Ling Chong's shout came from his ears: "Prince Zijing, Commander Ximen, you must not kill each other, the strong enemy has not yet retreated, if you make a move, wouldn't it be bitter and hateful." Hearing the familiar voice, Ximen Rin and Yang Ning both looked moved, and their eyes fell on the Youjilou boat, only to see Ling Chong standing at the bow of the boat, his body was shaky, his hair and clothes were wet, obviously he had just woken up, his voice was lacking in qi, and the look of exhaustion between his eyebrows was extremely strong. And beside him, the two young men who had fought so hard that their hands and feet were weak also stood there palely, supporting Ling Chong left and right, obviously they saw that something was wrong and forcibly woke up Ling Chong, presumably hoping that Ling Chong could persuade the two, but they didn't know that it was useless at all. Ling Chong didn't understand what was happening, and the two teenagers were also vague, but seeing the confrontation between Ximen Rin and Yang Ning, Ling Chong's heart was really burning, and he said sharply: " I don't care what happened between you, but Zijing Gongzi, what the Lord Commander has done to you these days, you should be clear, Commander, Zijing Gongzi went into battle for me, and it took even more effort to save Zhiheng's life, although he has no name, but Ling also treats him as a friend and brother, if you offend him, you should apologize in public, how can you self-destruct the Great Wall and embarrass him. What grievances and grievances do you have, you have to wait until the settlement in the future, how can you fight here, isn't this a joke for Jiangdong's friends?"
Hearing Ling Chong's persuasion, Yang Ning clenched the hilt of the sword, eager to kill Ximen Rin with a sword, but somehow the originally light sword became so heavy, and the scenes since he met Ximen Rin were reflected in his mind one by one. But all this is gone, Yang Ning clearly felt that from Ximen Rin's eyes, there was no longer a trace of warmth, and all that was left was the bone-chilling cold and naked murderous intent.
Ximen Rin quietly looked at Yang Ning Tieqing's face, knowing that the original seven points of sincerity, three points of deliberately created a deep relationship between uncle and nephew, has become a bubble, presumably in the mind of this young man, he has become the most hateful enemy, somehow, this is obviously the inevitable end, but Ximen Rin is still a little melancholy in his heart, if Yang Ning is only under the sword of the master of the colorless nunnery, or it will be better, at least he does not have to face his anger and accusations. However, Ximen Rin also felt a little uneasy, because he should have been very regretful, but he actually had a trace of joy and comfort from the bottom of his heart, could it be that he was willing to see such an ending, how could this be possible, Yang Ning was the most dangerous enemy for His Royal Highness the Prince, how could he be happy about his escape? But the most important thing now is to keep Yang Ning from discovering his true purpose, although so far, Yang Ning's hope of escape is still not great, but in order to prevent it, even if Yang Ning hates himself very much, it can't make him doubt his true intentions.
Thinking of this, Ximen Rin suddenly smiled, followed Ling Chong's persuasion, and said in a good manner: "Why is Zijing so angry? This seat is just a few jokes with you, although some are sorry for you, but this is also a helpless move, the colorless nunnery master swordsmanship, even if the two of us join forces, it is also defeated, so this seat has to sacrifice your safety, with you as bait, tempting the colorless nunnery master to shoot at you, this seat has a chance to succeed, although it backfired, almost let this seat give his life, but after all, you and I won, if Zi Jing holds a grudge against this matter, this seat will compensate you for it, and please Zi Jing look at the same door, don't worry about it。 ”
Ximen Rin smiled when he spoke, but the kind smile that Yang Ning had been accustomed to these days seemed to have become as vicious as a devil at this moment, how could he say such words after making such a despicable act, when the two sides had already broken off their righteousness, Yang Ning only felt that his heart was tingling, could it be that the person he was attached to and admired these days was such a villain?
Before Yang Ning could reprimand angrily, Ximen Rin had already laughed and said, "Shihou, now that the outcome has been decided, the rest is only our own business, Shihou should also let me and others pass, right?"
Shi Ming sneered slightly, the master of the colorless nunnery was injured to death, it was not a blow to him, in fact, he was still very happy to see such an ending, the master of the colorless nunnery is a master of Cuihu, and has a shocking swordsmanship, if he becomes an enemy, it will be terrible, even if there is Juzhong as an intermediary, Shi Ming will not be assured of the existence of such a person. It's a pity that the master of the colorless nunnery didn't kill Yang Ning before he died, and now he is bound to do it himself or Ximen Rin himself. For what Ximen Rin did, he only felt cold, destroying a teenager's trust alive, even a person like himself who thinks he is ruthless may not be able to do such a vicious thing, right? Although the failed ending made this matter a laughing stock, Shi Ming still added a little jealousy to Ximen Rin, so he was not ready to interfere, it was best for Ximen Rin and Yang Ning to fight to lose both, but he didn't expect Ximen Rin to let him watch the play on the side, now he can't do it without interfering, it's just that, now how to kill Yang Ning is the first priority.
Waving his hand and making a gesture, Shi Ming smiled faintly and said, " Where is the victory or defeat has been decided, it is only the ninth formation, but this array is out of line, the commander of Simon actually intervened halfway, although it is not a violation of the prior agreement to one to two, but it is unfair for the commander of Ximen to do this, but these details Benhou will not care about the commander, or please prepare for this last formation, my four guards have practiced a set of joint formation, originally they were four people, it is inconvenient to play, but since the commander of Ximen and Zijing Gongzi have two swords, then it is also in line with the agreement to fight with the four of them。 ”
With Shi Ming's words, the four ghost-faced guards in green clothes who were originally guarding him began to move their bodies, as if they really had plans to make a move.
Ximen raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart, Shi Ming is very calculating, where is this four to two, it is clear that I and the four guards joined forces to kill Zi Jing, it is high-sounding, but presumably it can only be said, no matter how naïve Zi Jing is, he will not accept this challenge.
Sure enough, Yang Ning smiled coldly when he heard this, and he didn't look at Ximen Rin, Chunjun pointed to Shi Ming and said: " The dispute between Jiangdong and Youji was originally not related to the prisoner of the next step, but it was not pleasing to the eyes of you below, so I intervened in a few battles, although it doesn't matter who of you wins or loses, but since I am involved in this matter, I can't let you mess around, just now when Ximen Rin and I joined forces, it has been explained that it is the tenth formation, you didn't deny it at the time, you should admit it, and now it's you who loses, it's better to let you go, otherwise I won't say much to you, just kill a bloody way, but I don't know who dares to block my way. ”
Although Shi Ming knew that Yang Ning would not accept the challenge, but seeing that he was still defending Ximen Rin between his words, he couldn't help but say tentatively: "Zijing Gongzi, since you know that you are a prisoner of the ranks, why bother to meddle in things, Ximen Rin will take revenge, this kind of thing Ben Hou also feels indignant in his eyes, it is better to Zijing Gongzi to fight back and kill Ximen Rin, if so, Ben Hou will definitely introduce Zijing Gongzi to Yue Guogong, when the time comes, glory and wealth, at your fingertips, it is better than falling into the rivers and lakes, and the wind and dust are wasted." ”
Yang Ning's expression was cold, he glanced at Shi Ming coldly, and said: "Ximen Rin En will take revenge and frame the same door, naturally he will die, I will deal with him, I don't need you to talk too much, whether you are willing to let you go, if you are unwilling, let me send you to Huangquan Road first, so as not to let you talk too much here." After saying that, he was about to make a move, but before he left the pontoon, he had already blocked the way for Ximen Rin.
Ximen Rin asked with a strange expression: "Zijing, why do you still want to help me? You don't have to take Deputy Commander Ling's words to heart, I have treated you well these days just to take advantage of you, and I don't have any sincerity. ”
Yang Ning said coldly: "What are you, now I just want to break your body into thousands of pieces, how can I help you, it's just that Zhiheng was rescued by me personally, and Deputy Commander Ling is also a good man, I always have to protect them thoroughly, don't worry, after I kill these people who stand in the way, I will come to kill you, after killing you, I will also ask Luo Chengyu, En will take revenge and sacrifice the same door, such a person is actually his subordinate, it seems that he is not very good in this life, it is better to let me do it." ”
Yang Ning was already a little scheming when he said this, although he was simple, he also knew that the disciples of the Martial Dao Sect might disagree with each other, but this kind of framing the same sect was not tolerated, so Ximen Rin's actions made him hate it and give birth to some suspicions. Ximen Rin really just wanted to get the opportunity to sneak attack the master of the colorless nunnery, if the two of them really joined forces to fight the enemy, there was still a three-point chance of winning, Ximen Rin's actions were superficially in line with the actions of a leader who held a lot of power and commanded a master like a cloud, but it was too incredible for a disciple of the Martial Arts Sect. Did Ximen Rin learn his identity and want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots for Luo Chengyu? Or is this what Luo Chengyu means at all, he has revealed his identity as a disciple of the Martial Arts Sect, can't they really think of who I am? Such a question made Yang Ning deliberately add the last sentence, and as soon as the words came out, he stared closely at Ximen Rin's eyes, hoping to see some clues.
But when Ximen Rin heard this, he just said with a gloomy expression: "If Zijing wants to ask about the crime, all the blame, this seat will bear it, this matter has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the prince, and if His Royal Highness knows, most of them will reprimand and surrender, but Zijing should also be cautious, His Royal Highness should not say that there is no fault, even if there is something wrong, he is still the only heir of Youji, and it is not the turn of Zijing Gongzi to covet the position of the prince of the world by an outsider." As he spoke, his eyebrows showed a look of anger and tolerance, as if he saw his nephew talking nonsense.
Yang Ning was a lot more relaxed in his heart, this matter may really have nothing to do with his life experience, but a deeper ridicule was revealed between his eyebrows, yes, he is just an outsider, what reason is there to go to Youji, is it really to regain the position of the prince who should have belonged to him, but was given to Luo Chengyu by his mother? Thinking of this, Yang Ning only felt that even his hatred for Ximen Rin had gradually faded, and he glanced at Ximen Rin in a daze, and he said a little impatiently: "Get out of the way, don't stop me, don't you really want to be my enemy?" If it's true, I'll kill you too, so as not to get in the way here." ”
Ximen Rin smiled slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes, he originally prevented Yang Ning from asking that question, but it was because Yang Ning was willing to help him, even with his iron heart, it couldn't help but touch the soft place in the depths of his heart, if Yang Ning's answer was not like this, or he might change his original decision. But Yang Ning's last sentence made him completely sober up like ice water pouring on him, things have reached this point, there is no room for redemption, even if he wants to let go, it is too late. Calmly letting go of his figure, he turned to look at Shi Ming, and laughed loudly: "Okay, I won't stop you, why don't we let our uncle and nephew join forces one last time and wipe out these rabbles in front of us in one fell swoop?"
Yang Ning snorted coldly and said sharply: "Who wants to join forces with you." Before the words fell, his body and like an arrow from the string rushed towards the building where Shi Ming was. Ximen Rin smiled faintly, and actually followed behind Yang Ning and rushed out, but his eyes were firmly fixed on Yang Ning, not the enemy in front of him.
Yang Ning's figure had just stepped on the top of the building boat, and the four snow-bright sword lights intertwined into a net of heaven and earth, blocking him, Yang Ning sneered slightly, and waved his sword to meet him without care, but a pair of eyes looked at Shi Ming through the heavy sword light. And behind him, although Ximen Rin was stopped by many masters who reacted, he was flying and jumping, blood gushing out, screaming again and again, as if he was ready to kill a bloody road.
Shi Ming gritted his teeth, knowing that he could no longer sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, although he didn't understand why Ximen Rin seemed to have changed his mind, but after all, there was still room for turning between Ximen Rin and Yang Ning, but he definitely couldn't watch Yang Ningsheng leave here, glared at Ximen Rin angrily, Shi Ming said sharply: "Listen to my order, whoever I belong to Jiangning, will kill everyone present, and leave no one alive." ”
At the same time, the brocade-clothed boy known as Eleven Lang took out an iron pipe, pressed the motion spring, and three black projectiles shot into the air, exploding in an instant, and the colorful fireworks patterns were bright and dazzling, even from a distance of more than ten miles, they could be seen clearly. With the strict orders of Shi Ming and the rise of fireworks, there was suddenly chaos on the river, and the sound of fighting rose to the sky.
Shi Ming's order surprised many people, and what shocked them even more was that it was not the master on the Shi Ying Mansion ship, the first to shoot was actually the two major forces of the Tianyu Alliance and the Flying Fish Hall, and the object of their attack was not the building ship of Youji, but the two warships of the Yang Gang and the Skull and Bones Society, which were also the six great Kou. Although all the forces had scruples before, but after watching the battle for a long time, most of the water cowards were concerned about the battle situation, and they did not expect that the Tianyu Alliance and the Flying Fish Hall would do anything to them, almost in an instant, the warships of the Canyang Gang were already shrouded in the rain of flames and arrows, and the Tianyu Alliance was the head of the six major Kou, and the Canyang Gang was caught off guard and was almost powerless to fight back. The Skull and Bones Club is different, the warship of the Flying Fish Hall has just landed on the warship of the Skull and Bones Club, and Boss Chu was the first to climb onto the warship of the Flying Fish Hall with a heavy sword, and with one sword, the two bandits in front of him who were about to kill the Skull and Bones will warship stop and cut off the waist, and at the same time as he started, the second master, Wen Jinru, shouted loudly: "Kill, leave no mouth." While shouting, while waving the order flag in his hand, the water of the Skull and Bones Society swarmed up, but the Flying Fish Hall did not expect that the Skull and Bones Society would be prepared, and fell into a bitter battle for a while.
Four of the six big robbers on the river are fighting each other at this moment, the Blue Dragon Society has collapsed because of Yang Ning's killing, those lone thieves or small groups of water robbers are at a loss, there is no need to discuss with each other, they have already fled in small warships, the forces on the Jiangning side seem to be unaware of this situation, just put down a lot of boats from the five-masted ship, and the boats are all brave and good sailors, and each boat is equipped with several white road masters, these boats are extremely strong, they disperse and intercept, and eliminate those weaker water warships one by one, and avoid the more powerful and fierce water boats, until this time, everyone understood why Shi Ming's order said "everyone present will be killed".
Shi Ming stood proudly in front of the Tongjun Pavilion, his eyes staring closely at Yang Ning, who was stopped by the four Tsing Yi guards, and the sword skills displayed by these four Tsing Yi guards were clearly "Great Bright Knife" , forming a bright sword array, extremely powerful, the sword light is overwhelming, even Yang Ning seems to be trapped for a while, these four guards are the masters of the secret training of the Bright Sect, even if the master is surrounded by them, it can only support seventy or eighty moves, so Yang Ning not to mention that he wants to kill four people in one fell swoop, it is also extremely difficult to break through their defense line, not to mention the hard battle between Fang Cai and the master of the colorless nunnery, Yang Ning consumed a lot of inside, so for a while, it was actually a stalemate, Yang Ning looked calm, and there was no intention of breaking the formation in a hurry, but the four guards did not rush to achieve quick success。 Comparatively speaking, although Ximen Rin was a few feet behind, he was splashed with blood and killed under the red, which added countless unjust souls.
In this chaotic situation, there are two places that are extraordinarily calm, one is the building ship of Youji, when the battle situation is together, the sailors on the ship have already been prepared, strong crossbows and arrows, fire oil and stone bullets are ready, but no one came to attack, in fact, it is strange to say, but it is normal to think about it carefully, now Shi Ming has no spare strength to attack them, but it is impossible for them to escape from the chaos, not to mention that Ximen Rin is still on the Jiangning ship, that is, there is no restraint in this regard, their huge building ship wants to break free from the muddy water in front of them, I am afraid that they will have to fight a bloody way, Jiangdong and Youji have been hostile for many years, once the war starts, I'm afraid that these water bandits who are fighting in front of me will not regard it as an ally, so it is better to stay where they are for the time being, and wait for the opportunity. Another place where no one attacked was the warship of the Jinfan Society, and the battle end was together, and the Jinfan warship that was originally on the outermost side was separated, and the three warships that had the strength to attack the Jinfan Society, Tianyu League, Feiyutang and Jiangning could not get out, and those small and medium-sized speedboats immediately had the courage, as long as they were within a distance of fifty zhang from this warship, they were defeated and retreated under the magic arrow of the Jinfan Society.
However, the warships of the Jinfan Society are different from the warships of Youji, although they have not officially participated in the war, but the small group of water robbers above the river have always respected and feared the Jinfan Society, so under the melee, some of the weaker water bandits in order to avoid the massacre of Jiangning and the Tianyu Alliance, Flying Fish Hall's handy cleaning, subconsciously approached the Jinfan Society, and to their surprise, the Jinfan Society just issued a flag order for them to go around, and the pursuing Jiangning warships were intercepted by a fierce rain of arrows, so that almost all the small groups of water thieves who could get out rushed towards the Jinfan Society, and hurriedly escaped under the command of the Jinfan Society's flag order.
Seeing this situation, Shi Ming frowned slightly, and then raised his voice: "Lord Yihui, Ben Hou respects you very much, and has never ordered to attack your warship, this time Ben Hou was ordered by the Yue Guo Gongjun, to take advantage of this alliance to clean the Yangtze River water Kou, the water Kou is rampant, blocking the waterway is not a day, Pingkou's move is in line with the people, the master is a number of heroes and heroes on the waterway, why not take advantage of the situation to accept Zhao'an, Bo a wife and a son, glory and wealth." His voice was not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly above the river, and the Chuyang Gang, the Skull and Bones Society, and the small group of water thieves who had been trapped on the battlefield and had been unlucky and had not escaped were all scolding loudly, some of them scolded the master for not believing in their words, and some of them scolded the Tianyu League and the Flying Fish Hall for not preaching morality.
Yi Buping sneered slightly, and King Yi's bow and three arrows shot through the throats of the three Baidao masters who were letting go of the killing, and then said sharply: "Yue Guogong wants to level the water Kou? Who in the world does not know that if there is no Yue Guogong's wanton conquest, if there is no Yue Guogong's acquiescence, how can there be so many water Kou on this river, Yue Guogong raises Kou's self-respect, and now he is in power, he wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world?" Let me go of the Jinfan Club, if it weren't for the fact that Qinglong Hall was picked by Prince Jing of Zijing, I'm afraid that it will be Qinglong Hall that is attacking my Jinfan Club now, right?"
Yi Buping's cold words made many people feel like a Daigo empowerment, especially a smart person like Wen Jinru, he glanced at the fire that was burning more and more on the warship of the Canyang Gang, as well as several leaders trapped in the sea of blood, knowing that the Canyang Gang was no longer good, wiped the blood on his face, he didn't ask Boss Chu's opinion, and shouted to himself: "Lord Yihui, if you talk about fighting on the water, you are the first on the river, and my skeleton will strictly obey the orders of the Lord of the Hui, and the two of us will join forces to kill together." ”
Before Yi Buping could answer, Duan Tianqun, the leader of the Tianyu Alliance, had already cut off the head of the leader of the Canyang Gang with one sword, and shouted loudly: "Wen Jinru, you still want to hug the thick legs of the Jinfan Club, to tell you honestly, Duan Mou's most unaccustomed person is the surname Yi, if you order surrender now, Duan Mou will spare you from dying." Yi Buping, you have repeatedly embarrassed Duan, Duan Mou has hindered you from fighting on the river for many years, and you can't bear to do it, today Duan Mou is to take the entire Tianyu League, and he will not let you escape. ”
Yi Buping sneered and didn't answer, the bowstring sounded like a thunderbolt, an arrow shot at Duan Tianqun, the black light flashed and disappeared, Duan Tianqun's hand was fast, flashed to the side, but the arrow pierced through the heart of a guard behind Duan Tianqun, the arrow was not finished, and it shot deeply into the chest of the other guard, in the firelight, the screams of the two guards dying were annihilated in the deafening shouting and killing, Yi Buping gave Duan Tianqun the best answer to the battle post.
Just when Yi Buping was about to give the order to attack the Tianyu Alliance, Qingping's eager voice came from his ears: "Uncle Yi, it doesn't matter if the Tianyu Alliance is concerned, you must get rid of the Flying Fish Hall." Yi Buping frowned slightly, he still valued Qingping's talent in water warfare, and it didn't matter what the overall situation was to attack the Tianyu Alliance or the Flying Fish Hall left and right, so as soon as the flag order waved, the warship attacked the Flying Fish Hall.
At this time, Ximen Rin had already killed Yang Ning and the four Tsing Yi guards, he ignored Shi Ming, who was protected by many masters a few zhang away, the sword light flashed, the blood light burst out, a Tsing Yi ghost-faced guard had a sword on his arm, and he couldn't help but stumble, the knife array leaked a trace of flaw, Ximen Rin Sword Changhong had broken into the formation, although Yang Ning, who was trapped in the knife array, looked as usual, but when he saw such a scene, a trace of light still flashed in his eyes, and he rushed out without hesitation. At the moment when Yang Ning's figure and Ximen Rin staggered, Ximen Rin's sword turned and slashed towards Yang Ning's neck, and at the same time, the steel knives in the hands of the three Tsing Yi guards who came after him were glorious at the same time, and in the lightning conflict, with a thunderous killing machine, and the guard who was originally in the sword was also slashed at the head, without the slightest appearance of injury.
Yang Ning faced such a desperate situation, but he was not moved in the slightest, but his eyes were already a blend of ice and fire in an instant, the blue light flashed, and there was already an extra Ning Qing Sword in his left hand, a "Su Qin Back Sword" , is blocking the back of the neck, in front of a red blade, the pure Jun sword slashed out horizontally, the ghost-faced guard with a sword wound only felt as if the mountain was pressing on the top, and unconsciously forced to retreat, and Yang Ning had already turned around with the power of the double sword impact, the sword light of the autumn water broke through the air, like a flat wind and thunder, more like an angry sea roaring, the three Tsing Yi guards who bore the brunt of the brunt exclaimed at the same time: "The king's sword!" The three swords of light combined to strike a blow, but in the blink of an eye, they were completely broken by the sword technique used by Yang Ning Chunjun's sword, and when the three of them retreated, they were already blood-stained clothes.
The sword light and sword aura around him were all gloomy, Yang Ning smiled faintly, holding a sword in each hand, and it was not sheathed, Chunjun was protecting him, Ning Qing pointed to Ximen Rin, and said coldly: "Uncle Shi, do you think I will still be fooled?"
