Chapter 45: Escape
When the four disciples of the Three Pillars of the World let go of their hands, the scene caused was much more chaotic than Ning Liang had originally imagined.
Ruan Songyu and Lin Qian entangled the two fish dragon guards who directly gave orders to the people in black, and Ouyang Tianhui and Lan Sumei both had the ability to kill people on a large scale, especially Lan Sumei, who was afraid of poison with one hand. The black-clothed people, who had lost their direct command and were slaughtered by giant swords and poison skills, gradually fell into chaos, and lost the discipline they had at the beginning.
Ning Liang took advantage of this opportunity to quietly move a little bit in the shadows. There were a lot of people in black running around in Qidong County, but compared to a county that is much larger than a prefecture, and there are so many houses, it is not so easy to find a person, so Ning Liang kept being careful to avoid the search of one man in black after another.
Although he doesn't know martial arts in his old age, he is not clumsy, but he is surprisingly agile. After making a few circles around Qi Dongli, Ning Liang identified a direction and began to flee there.
East.
At Fu Jie's request, the black-clothed people set a fire to the east of Qidong, and to this day, this fire is still burning. Although they deliberately chose a relatively open area, in order to achieve the effect of dispelling the poisonous fog, this fire is still very large, in fact, if it is not controlled, this fire may even burn the entire mountain forest. Therefore, some black-clothed people were arranged here to control the fire, and at this time, the large army had gradually entered the county, and these black-clothed people in the east also began to extinguish the fire. After all, burning the mountain is a trivial matter, and if the wind blows in the county and burns all his companions to death, it will be a big trouble.
Ning Liang found that it was precisely because of this that there were not too many black-clothed people in the east of Qidong, because of the fire, it was not easy to escape from here, and one might accidentally fall into the fire, not to mention that it was not without defenses here. It's just that compared to the east, other directions are more difficult to break through, and with Ning Liang's ability, the east is the only place where there is a chance to escape.
However, the howling of the wind had gradually become quieter, and Ning Liang hid under the eaves of a dilapidated house, but he didn't know how to escape from this place. There were at least a dozen black-clad men patrolling ahead, and it was by no means easy to get out of here.
And...... Ning Liang's eyes sank, the position on the east side was left blank too deliberately, at this time, if a few people came to pick up, they were stronger, and they could deal with these black-clothed people at the moment, wouldn't they be able to easily pick them up? If Ning Wushu really came here, then she could even call characters like Leng Qianqiu, and it would not be difficult to find a few people to answer at all! Such an obvious gap, is it a way to survive or a dead end?
"Mr. Special Envoy, are you really not afraid that Ning Liang will escape from your so-called 'Wai San Que Yi'?"
In a high place, Fu Jie, wearing a mask, stood side by side with Li Hangyun, who had taken off his disguise. When the battle really began, Li Hangyun came here and watched everything that happened in Qidong County with Fu Jie.
Fu Jue laughed dryly: "Master Supervision Secretary, no matter how 'que' I am, I have also arranged manpower, but it is just to create an illusion for Ning Liang that there is a chance here, and it makes no difference whether he chooses to go or not." No matter how strong the opponent's master is, he can only block it for a while, and in this heaven and earth net, there is no need to worry about Ning Liang escaping. ”
"Really?" Li Hangyun said lightly: "Originally, I thought the same way. But after Leng Qianqiu made a move, I felt that something was wrong. Leng Qianqiu appeared inexplicably, killed a few people and left, this matter is very strange. He didn't save anyone, he didn't target us key people, as if he was announcing his own existence, and as if he was sending some kind of signal, which made me really confused. With this layer of variables, I can't let go. ”
Fu Jue smiled: "Didn't you send your own junior brothers and sisters to follow Leng Qianqiu?
Li Hangyun's indifferent eyes suddenly became sharp, and he turned his head to look directly at the mask of the three-eyed demon on Fu Jie's face, but he couldn't see anything. Fu Jue faced Li Hangyun's gaze, just calmly pointed to his mask, and said, "The Supervision Envoy doesn't have to look at me like this, this third eye is not white...... Joke joke, since I am in charge of the planning of this operation, of course I will find a way to control all the situation in my hands, although your junior brothers and sisters are well disguised, but that powerful and powerful momentum is really impossible to hide, it is difficult not to be noticed. ”
Li Xuanyun looked away, frowned, and said, "The main purpose of this operation is to kill Ning Liang, and I can't explain to the master if I don't see him die with my own eyes." Mr. Special Envoy, why don't you go to the front with me, since you said that Ning Liang will go to the east, then let's go to that place and have a look. ”
"Uh...... Don't you need it?" Fu Jue was stunned: "We have to look at the overall situation here, strategize, isn't it good to go to the front line?" In case something special happens, such as two thousand households can't beat the master on the opposite side, or Leng Qianqiu's guy killed a horse pistol, someone has to be in command, right?"
Li Xuanyun glanced at Fu Jue deeply: "Since this is the case, Mr. Special Envoy will continue to grasp the overall situation here, let me go there to take a look." ”
"Huh?" Before Fu Jue could react, Li Xuanyun had already jumped down from this high place with his arms outstretched like a big bird, disappearing into the wind. Fu Jue stretched out to hold Li Hangyun's hand and stretched out halfway, but only grabbed the air. Seeing that Li Hangyun left without a trace of hesitation, he withdrew his hand again, and snorted coldly: "It's really a difficult supervision envoy......" After speaking, he didn't hesitate, and also jumped and chased after Li Hangyun.
Li Hangyun's light skills are not necessarily very clever, but simply rely on pure internal force to run. When Fu Jue caught up with him in a few jumps in the forest, Li Hangyun didn't go far.
"What are you doing here?" Li Xuanyun didn't even turn his head to look at Fu Jie, but asked lightly.
"Well, I can't help it...... After all, you are the eldest disciple of the Commander Envoy!" Fu Jue sighed, "If something happens to you, I can't afford to explain it." Besides, anyway, as long as you get Ning Liang, it doesn't matter if you take care of anything else, then what else do I command, you are all yourself, I'll come and accompany you. ”
Li Hangyun didn't answer, but just sped up.
The two of them ran wildly all the way, and it didn't take long for them to come to the vicinity of the east of Qidong, and they had already begun to feel the scorching sensation of the raging fire. Li Xuanyun stopped, closed his eyes, tilted his head, moved his ears, and said coldly: "Someone went in the direction of Qidong." ”
Fu Jue laughed dryly and said, "Obviously, several of our people have been killed, and the corpses are lying there." ”
There were several dead men in black on the ground, all with the same sword wound on their bodies. The wound of this sword is very thin, but the wound is extremely deep, and the position of each sword is different, but it is undoubtedly the vital point of the human body, and the sword is fatal. Li Hangyun walked to the corpse, squatted down and briefly examined it, and said, "You Feng Sword Technique." ”
"Youfeng Sword Technique?" Fu Jue was taken aback: "Are you talking about Leng Qianqiu's sword technique?"
Li Xuanyun stood up and shook his head: "It's not him." Judging from the situation where he made a move just now, although his strength seems to have been damaged a little, his sword qi is still extremely pure, you see these corpses, although they are Leng Qianqiu's swordsmanship, but the speed and strength of the sword are much worse, they should be Leng Qianqiu's apprentices. ”
"Apprentice?" Fu Jue put on a look of deferential listening, Li Hangyun thought for a while, and said: "Leng Qianqiu has accepted a lot of apprentices, and there is a mysterious force behind it, and the master calls it 'Leng Jiazhuang'. There are a lot of fish and dragons in Lengjiazhuang, and we still don't understand what their real purpose is. ”
"Lengjiazhuang? Fu Jue nodded: "Then let's go up and have a look." ”
The corpse of the man in black spread all the way, and the two followed the direction of the corpse, and soon came to the place where the fire was burning. Originally, there were some black-clothed people here to control the fire, but now they have all been killed with a single sword, and the fire is gradually burning again without being controlled. Li Hangyun briefly checked the situation at the scene and said, "They haven't left yet." ”
Before the words fell, I saw a group of black-clothed people walking from the other side of the path, but these black-clothed people were not holding short knives in their hands, but each holding a long sword in their hands, walking out in a circle, guarding one person in their circle, who was it not Ning Liang?
Li Xuanyun glanced at Fu Jie: "I didn't expect Mr. Special Envoy's clever plan to be fully recognized by the other party." ”
Fu Jue coughed dryly: "It's not enough to see through, I didn't expect it, and there is still a force like Leng Jiazhuang...... Thanks to the supervision secret, the adult's mind is like electricity, and he is discerning!"
"Stop talking nonsense, kill. Li Hangyun's eyes flashed with murderous aura, and he pounced with his empty hands.
Rewind to a recent past. After Wu Hua and his entourage received Ning Wushu's order, they all set out and began to run towards the east of Qidong County. All of them changed into black clothes like the fish and dragon guards, which was especially convenient in the dark of night. Soon, they came to the vicinity of Qidong, and they also saw the raging fire, and even saw the black-clothed people who were controlling the fire and patrolling the perimeter.
A few people hid in the dark and watched for a while, and a young man stabbed Wu Hua in the back and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, what should we do, didn't you say that we don't have a head-on conflict with Yulongwei? But the people we want to pick up are all martial arts, and if we don't kill those people, the people inside won't be able to escape!"
Wu Hua gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "We still have to do it when we are entrusted by people and loyal to people...... But fortunately, there were not many people here, so we made a quick decision, picked up the people and left quickly. ”
The young man who spoke just now muttered, "Senior brother, but in this way, won't we be exposed?"
"Hmph. Wu Hua snorted coldly: "I don't believe that Ning Wushu's woman will not be able to solve these watchdogs, she just wants us to expose them." But there is no other way now, junior disciples, move quickly, and then ......" He took out a piece of drawing paper with a portrait of Ning Liang from his arms and showed it to his junior disciples, "Take another look, remember the appearance of the person we are going to pick up!"
The next tea kung fu passed in the staggered sword light and blood light. Although Leng Qianqiu's apprentices are not very old, they are obviously veterans of killing, every sword is a fatal move, they ran wildly all the way, and the black-clothed fish dragon guards didn't have time to react at all, so they were killed by Wu Hua and his party who had no intention of fighting back. In just a moment, they bypassed the fire and came to Qidong County, Wu Hua was about to wave his hand to let the junior disciples disperse to find Ning Liang, when he saw a person striding all the way in front of him, by the light of the fire, he saw that this person's figure and appearance were similar to the person in the portrait, and it didn't look like he had martial arts, most of them were the target, but he still pointed out his sword and asked, "Who is coming?"
The person who came was Ning Liang, he hid in the shadows and waited for the opportunity, but he never waited for the opportunity, and he was hesitating whether it was a trap or an opportunity. At this moment, I saw a few people killing all the way, my eyes suddenly lit up, and my mind turned sharply. Of course, these people may also be a scam, making the illusion of "saving people", but in fact, they are trying to deceive Ning Liang to take the initiative to show up. However, when he turned his head and vaguely saw more and more black-clothed people flocking towards Ouyang Tianhui and Lan Sumei in the distance, he knew that there was probably no other way to go except here.
In this case, it is better to gamble than to be picked up and killed in humiliation by others.
So, Ning Liang strode out and greeted the black-clothed men with long swords. When Wu Hua asked "who is coming", Ning Liang raised his head and said, "No matter who you are, I am the person you are looking for." ”
Several of Wu Hua's juniors looked at each other, Wu Hua frowned, and asked, "How do I know that you are the person we are looking for?"
Ning Liang also frowned, and asked rhetorically, "Are you people sent by Wushu?"
This question is very skillful, because in fact, in this whole incident, the only people who know that Ning Wushu exists are his own people. Being able to say this name undoubtedly indicates his identity, and if the other party has even the slightest hesitation...... It's fake.
Fortunately, Wu Hua reacted quickly enough, and when he heard Ning Liang say the word "no book", he immediately put down the sword pointing at Ning Liang and said to his junior disciples: "It's him, quickly, take him and let's go!" Seeing this, Ning Liang also breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand he was holding in his wide sleeves also relaxed a lot.
However, they didn't go far before they met Li Hangyun and Fu Jie.
Fu Jue stood in place and didn't move, but Li Xuanyun pounced without hesitation. He didn't have a weapon in his hand, but brandished a pair of fleshy palms, and attacked Ning Liang impartially, completely indifferent to the few people around Ning Liang. Standing in front of Ning Liang was none other than Wu Hua, and in the face of this person who came out of nowhere, he didn't care too much, but just swung out his sword as usual.
