Chapter 82: Run when you're done
"I thought he had listened to what you just said. Liu Wencheng wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and his heart palpitated.
If he was told by Li Tai, he and Gu Yuan were likely to be beheaded Liwei, although he didn't want to admit it, but he, the little marquis, was indeed no different from civilians, and even had a lower status. No matter what kind of military exploits he makes, there is no possibility of entering the officialdom.
He has few relatives, his mother has long since passed away, the eldest sister is a favored concubine in the harem, and the second sister died as early as ten years old, so he is the only one who was exiled.
When he was escorted to Shangzhou by the Black Dragon Iron Cavalry, he happened to encounter Zheng Cheng's conscription, so he was thrown into this team. Although the future was bleak, he had no intention of seeking death, and he began to feel that being classified under Gu Yuan was the second worst thing in the world.
"What are you afraid of when he hears it?" Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm running fast." ”
“......”
"So I was the one who suffered in the end?" Liu Wencheng's expression became very resentful.
......
The two rays of light that were rolling and entangled in the sky gradually faded, and soon, sure enough, there was a noisy shout of killing that was rapidly approaching.
I could clearly feel the earth shaking, the stones jumping, and a black tide appeared on the horizon hundreds of feet away, rushing like a flood.
The shamans in grass clothes roared and howled, their steps were chaotic, but every step they took was full of power. As they approached, the ground shook more violently, and the miscellaneous soldiers guarding the front licked their lips nervously, and finally someone couldn't bear it anymore and threw the iron bracelet on his wrist with all his might.
The bracelet was too heavy, the shaman was too far away, and their strength was too small, so they threw a few zhang outer bracelet and smashed it on the ground, smashing countless pits.
Gu Yuan got the benefit of the iron spirit bracelet, did not throw out the bracelet and anklet bracelet on his body, and watched calmly as the distance between the witch and him quickly shortened, and then when the witch was still forty zhang away, he ordered the people around him: "I'll count three, let's run to the side, remember to shout out and let others ......."
As he was talking, Gu Yuan suddenly stopped, a little uncertain.
"Let someone else?" asked Azie uncontrollably.
"Are you stupid?" Ah Wu slapped Ah Qi on the shoulder and said, "Of course it is so that others can hear it." ”
"Yes. Gu Yuan smiled, "That's what I want to say." ”
Liu Wencheng looked at Gu Yuan with deep meaning in his eyes, he knew what Gu Yuan hesitated at the last moment, if he let the hundred or so people guarding the first line of defense flee with them, the witch people would probably chase and kill them.
On the contrary, if they escape quietly and use these 100 or so people as bait, they may be able to leave easily.
If it was the latter, then Gu Yuan would be too cold and ruthless, and Gu Yuan would choose the former in the end......
"Actually, it's the same choice for every choice. Gu Yuan shrugged his shoulders and whispered, "I let these people escape, won't the people behind them also die?"
Liu Wencheng was surprised: "Do you know what I'm thinking?"
"Huh?" Gu Yuan looked at Liu Wencheng blankly, "What did you say?"
Liu Wencheng frowned and asked, "What were you talking about just now?"
"I'm talking to myself. ”
“......”
"My lord, it's been three years earlier. Ah Qi reminded in a whisper behind him, and unconsciously, the witch man was closer, and Gu Yuan could even see the spots on the face of the witch running in front.
"Okay, start counting. ”
"Three ......"
Gu Yuan saw a ring of bloody ears around the necks of several witches, and shivered violently.
"One!"
Turn around and run to the left!
The two brothers who were waiting for Gu Yuan to say "two" were stunned for a moment, shouted "Mom", and ran away with Gu Yuan.
Liu Wencheng followed, and Zhao An didn't know what the situation was, but when he saw that Gu Yuan and the others had run away, he also chased after him.
The big bear was even more so, carrying Li Tai to squeeze through the crowd and run wildly, and the other three disciples of the Lieyang Palace glanced at each other, and they all spread their bodies and followed.
Zheng Cheng, who was standing on the stage, had an unobstructed view of the situation below, and the strange appearance of Gu Yuan and the others was naturally seen by him, and a sneering smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, pointing at Gu Yuan and the others: "Let go of the sword and shoot them." ”
"Brother, wait, we haven't shouted yet. Azzie shouted.
Ah Wu, who was running in front, glanced around a few times, stomped his feet and said, "Still shouting a fart, you didn't see that people were messed up?"
Zheng Cheng's face turned pale, he miscalculated, the hundred or so people guarding the front were not the vine armor army that was absolutely obedient to orders after all, Gu Yuan and these people gave them a head, and everyone ran to the side.
The swordsmen who spit out the flying swords were stunned on the spot, and the crowd was in chaos, how could they find Gu Yuan who was mixed in the crowd?
"Kill!" Zheng Cheng was furious: "Kill them all!"
"Your Excellency, think twice!" the centurion of the sword master hurriedly advised, "It is really unwise to waste energy on these miscellaneous soldiers. ”
Zheng Cheng's eyes flickered, and finally sighed: "Resist the enemy with all your might." ”
"We can't let the city guards mess up anymore. Zheng Cheng added.
With a buzz, a hundred green flying swords hung above the city guards, and the fierce sword aura enveloped everyone's body.
How dare everyone have any other thoughts, they looked at the fleeing hundred or so people angrily, and cursed loudly in their mouths.
Suddenly, they were happy again, and a group of witches separated from the crowd, and soon chased after them, slaughtering them wantonly, and for a while the heads were rolling, and the blood waves rushed from time to time.
Zheng Cheng withdrew his gaze from the deserters who annoyed him, pointed his hand forward, and roared: "Release!"
Hundreds of flying swords poured out, like a cavalry charging through the crowd quickly, and then turned around and shot back again, the air was filled with a blood mist, and the flying swords took countless lives away one by one.
At the same time, the city guards took off all the bracelets from their bodies and threw them violently, and they chose a much smarter time than those who fled, and most of the bracelets hit their targets, smashing the heads of many witches out of their holes.
There are too many witches, not to mention thousands, even if you throw them with your eyes closed, they will hit people.
Zheng Cheng was slightly overjoyed, the previous wave of attacks had taken at least more than two hundred lives, and just as he ordered the flying sword to shoot out again, the witch man stopped, and there was an extra ball of blue flame in his hand.
Zheng Cheng's eyes tightened, and he pursed his lips, the current situation did not allow him to hesitate, and the sorcerer holding the blue fire in his hand was clearly waiting for him to draw his sword.
"Release the sword!"
The moment the sword rained down, the blue light was thrown, and the moment the flying sword pierced through the flames, the sword body stained with residual flames decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a moment, it burned to ashes.
The hundred sword masters who lost their natal magic weapons sprayed blood together, and even if they didn't fall to the ground, they were still staggering and struggling.
Zheng Cheng's face changed greatly, when did the witch learn this hand?
Didn't they all rely on their savage bodies to collide?
