Chapter 39 The Battle of the Siege of the Enemy
As soon as the sky turned white, there was a sudden sound of paddling on the silent lake. Qiu Qiyuan followed the prestige, but saw a small boat approaching on the lake covered by light smoke, vaguely two old men, one tall and one short, standing on the bow of the boat, and behind them, a young man quickly rocked the oar.
"Who's coming!Stop!" Qiu Qiyuan shouted loudly.
After all, there were several warships and hundreds of enemies in front of him, and the young man seemed to be quite nervous when he heard this, but he did not stop, and still desperately rushed towards the enemy formation. The two old men standing in the bow of the boat were not afraid.
"Shoot!" In Qiu Qiyuan's broken shout, dozens of feather arrows fell towards the three figures like a frenzied swarm. The two old men shouted loudly, their sleeves and robes fluttered wildly, and the arrows crashed into a solid wall and fell into the lake one after another.
"It must be the enemy's reinforcements! Hurry up! Intercept them!" Qiu Qiyuan shouted as he commanded the warship he was on to crash straight over.
There was a loud "click", and the boat was knocked into pieces. Fortunately, the young man was quite good in the water, and he plunged into the lake and disappeared without a trace, and after a long while, he emerged on the surface of the lake dozens of feet away and swam to the shore.
The two old men shouted angrily, and they both rose into the air like big birds and jumped down to the bow of the incoming ship. Several gangsters snatched out, and before the two of them landed on the bow of the boat, in the sound of "brushing", Sen Hanxueliang's blades came out and slashed down at them.
These two old men are naturally Dou Xingkong and Yao Yuan.
The second elder waved his sleeves and swung his blades, and the two leaders couldn't help but exert great strength, and the sound of "plopping" was mixed with screams, and they were already shaken into the lake. The second old man put his feet on the side of the ship a little, and then pulled up his feet, and in mid-air, he turned over the heads of everyone and landed on the deck.
Qiu Qiyuan was shocked when he saw that the enemy's martial arts were so strong, and waved his hand: "Let's go together!" In the midst of the cheers, he held a green bamboo cane to meet the medium-sized old man. Yao Yuan sneered, grabbed the head of the cane with his hand, and his tongue bloomed with spring thunder: "Let go!"
Qiu Qiyuan felt a huge force coming from the head of the cane, which shook his arm numb, and he almost got out of his hand, and then he shouted violently, and his right arm was forced, and his shoulder shook and pulled. Yao Yuan didn't expect that the arm strength of this middle-aged black thin man who seemed to be a little trivial was not weak, and the green bamboo cane was slippery and could not be grasped firmly.
So he slammed his wrist and wanted to break it, but he didn't know what kind of texture the green cane body was, I don't know what kind of texture it was, it was unusually hard, and he couldn't even push it twice. And under the opponent's force, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he abandoned the cane, leaned up, and slashed his right palm at Qiu Qiyuan's neck.
Qiu Qiyuan didn't dare to pick up his front and took a step back, but his green bamboo cane was smart, pointing, poking, sweeping, and entanglement, the moves were fast and strange, and he made more than ten moves in a row, Yao Yuan couldn't help him. His heart became anxious, and he pulled out a pair of copper maces around his waist.
Yao Yuan, with a pair of 32-pound double hammers, became famous 40 years ago. With this kung fu, he started from scratch and founded the Sanxiang Dart Federation, which was known as one of the "Eight Dart Bureaus of the Jianghu". One year, the Sanxiang Dart Union escorted a batch of dart silver to Guangzhou, and was robbed of the dart silver by the "Lingnan Three Evils" and the "Dongjiang Seven Monsters" in Shaoguan. When Yao Yuan heard the news, he chased after him single-handedly, did not sleep or eat for three days and three nights, fought the ten evils alone, caused him to die four times and suffer three heavy injuries, and recaptured the dart silver. This incident caused a sensation in the martial arts, and it was still talked about many years later. Since then, those green forest ringing horses in the rivers and lakes, even if there are illiterate people, as long as they see the pair of bronze dart flags painted, they will be like encountering a bad star, and they can't avoid it early.
At the moment, Yao Yuan's double gong is one vertical and one horizontal, one defending and one attacking, the momentum is fierce and vicious, the moves are wonderful, and the green bamboo cane is gradually unable to cover it. Qiu Qiyuan was in a cold sweat and couldn't stop retreating. Seeing this, more than a dozen helpers beside him hurriedly raised their blades and surrounded each other to help.
Qiu Qiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, and for a while, the two sides were inseparable. During the fight, one of the gang members screamed miserably, was hit in the chest, and immediately spurted blood from his mouth and fell to the ground.
Several people with strong martial arts surrounded Dou Xingkong. Dou Xingkong pulled out the Yanling knife with his backhand, and in the midst of the loud shouting, one of the helpers retreated a little slowly, and he had already been stabbed in the arm.
A man in his forties shouted, "This old man is very strong in martial arts, everyone be careful!" Then more than a dozen gangers rushed up, surrounded Dou Xingkong at the core, and the bright blades beckoned to him. Dou Xingkong was not afraid, rushed left and right, the sword light flew over, and after a while, two more gangsters hung up.
Yao Yuanshen was majestic, and in the blink of an eye, he severely damaged several enemies. While fighting fiercely, he shouted: "Brother Dou, don't fall in love with the war, let's go!"
The second elder quickly broke out of the encirclement, jumped into the lake and swam to the shore not far away. Under the cover of the arrows of the clump feathers, the "poof" shot into the lake. The two elders are quite good in water, while diving to dodge, they swim forward hard, and they will be drenched in water for a while.
Qiu Qiyuan left half of the gang down and led dozens of other gang members to pursue.
Yao and Dou both made good efforts, and soon jumped over the Xianmei Pavilion, and the shouts and killings in their ears became clearer and clearer, gradually shaking the heavens and the earth.
Seeing that there was no enemy outside the helm of Yueyang Tower, they were anxious, obviously, the Chu Xiang League had already killed them.
※※※
As Shang Xiaotian expected, after both sides had rested for half an hour, as soon as the sky was bright, the Chu Xiang League launched a general attack.
Shang Xiaotian stood on the second floor of Yueyang Tower, looking nervously at the battle between the two sides below. Standing next to her was Xie Feiyan, who looked blank, and in her eyes, a trace of sadness and despair flashed.
Hundreds of archers were scattered on the second floor, condescendingly firing arrows at the enemy bushes that were pouring into the gap, and the screams of the enemy could be heard from time to time. From time to time, archers in the enemy bushes returned fire, and after about a pillar of incense, twenty or thirty archers upstairs fell.
The dozens of gangs in the south led by You Yuanjiang couldn't resist it first, and were rushed out of a big gap, and immediately, the tide of enemies poured in, quickly surrounding the Yueyanglou gang in this area, and the two sides fought chaotically. The archers upstairs were afraid of hurting their own people, and did not dare to shoot down in this area again.
In the enemy formation, a strong man in a black coat who made a chain gun was unstoppable, hooking, locking, stabbing, picking, and from time to time shooting a three-edged diamond tip to attack. You Yuanjiang's spear flew over, and he joined forces with three gangsters with strong martial arts to fight, but he was forced to retreat.
"Landlord, who is this person? is it one of the Four Hidden Dragons?" Xie Feiyan frowned and asked softly.
"It's not. He is the 'Rainstorm Gun' Luo Junfeng Protector. In today's rivers and lakes, his marksmanship can definitely be ranked within the top 20! Hey, the hall master is not his opponent!"
It didn't take long for the gang led by Qu Feng in the east to be unable to withstand it and were washed away. Shang Xiaotian looked at it in surprise, but saw that the leading enemy was a powerful middle-aged man in white clothes, holding a Tang knife nearly four feet long, with sharp and unpredictable knife skills, like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, and in the blink of an eye, he knocked down several gangsters.
Shang Xiaotian remembered that this person had killed a lot of his own gang yesterday, and wondered: Who is this person? With such a high sword technique, there will definitely not be more than ten in the martial arts! Could this be Bai Zhanhong, the master of the Divine Sword Hall?
The Qufeng steel knife with flying knives on his back covered the left and right, and he was forced to avoid the torrential knife momentum of the man in white, but fortunately, he was excellent in light work, and he could always fly away when he could not be attacked, and there was no danger for a while. Seeing that he was nervous, two subordinates hurriedly gave up their opponents, raised their blades and came up to help, and after a few fights, one of his subordinates was cut off with a knife, and blood splashed.
"Huang Fei!" Qu Feng's eyes were about to split, and the two flying knives shot at Bai Zhanhong. In the sound of "sonor" and "sonor", the flying knife was knocked off, the wind swooped down in the air, and a knife sealed the opponent's waist and slashed violently, only feeling the numbness of his arms and tightness in his chest, he couldn't care about breathing for a moment, his left hand had already buckled Bai Zhanhong's left arm, and he picked up twelve broken gold and jade, and wanted to crush his arm bones, but he felt like pinching on a copper pillar, and was surprised.
The dazzling sword light came to the face, and Qu Feng hurriedly sealed it with a knife, and came out vertically, and a cold sweat broke out on his back. If it was only a few moments late, his head would be split in half.
The gaps in the west and north have also been broken away.
A strong black man with a beard roared again and again, and a pair of meteor hammers danced "flickeringly" in the wind, smashing and sweeping like an electric switch, and the blockers were invincible. This person is naturally Teng Haiming, the 'Flying Star Spreading Hatred'.
Fan Wei is also known for his strength, holding a mace, and Teng Haiming's meteor hammer collided hard, but his skills are slightly inferior, and the change of moves is not as agile as the other party, the two fought one-on-one for more than ten moves, Fan Wei could only defend while retreating, and he was unable to fight back at all.
A white-faced man in his thirties danced with two swords, and his body was surrounded by Dao Sen's cold sword light, and in the blink of an eye, he knocked down several people. Chai Jing held the Yuntou knife to resist, but his martial arts were decent, which enemy could withstand the opponent's unpredictable sword moves, and after a few rounds of fighting, his left arm was already hung with color. But he was very brave, and he did not scare his wounds, but still gritted his teeth and fought bloodily.
Half an hour later, the opponent had completely attacked the rudder of Yueyang Tower. The archers of Yueyang Tower abandoned their bows and arrows one after another and came down to meet them. More than 2,000 members of the Chu Xiang League surrounded more than 500 Yueyanglou gangs in this circular area, and strangled them with a disparity of five to one, and not long after, the Yueyanglou gang lost dozens more.
Shang Xiaotian saw that his subordinates couldn't resist it, and was about to jump into the enemy formation to kill the enemy, when he suddenly saw Yao Yuan and Dou Xingkong both arrive, so he stopped.
Dou Xingkong saw that Bai Zhanhong was fierce and vicious, and attacked him with two knives of "brush" and "brush". Bai Zhanhong blocked two knives, only to feel that his arm was slightly numb, and his heart sank. Encountering a strong enemy, he shook his spirit, and made a series of three tricks "black clouds crush the city", "soar clouds and drive fog", "clear clouds and see the sun", and attacked Dou Xing like a sea of mountains.
Seeing that the opponent was so strong, Dou Xingkong was addicted to it, and in the midst of loud cheers, he launched the unique move of the Lone Goose Cloud Piercing Knife Method to resist the enemy. I saw the sword light vertical and horizontal, the stones and sand flying, and the two fought inseparably.
Yao Yuan saw that You Yuanjiang was covered in blood, and a few people besieging the opponent couldn't get any cheapness, so he rushed to Luo Junfeng with a double fist, and attacked him with a silent head and face.
Yao and Luo fought for more than a dozen rounds, whether it was the chain gun in Luo Junfeng's hand attacking like a storm, or shooting a three-edged rhombic tip sneak attack like lightning, Yao Yuan did not move at all, and the double mace swept the block frame vertically and horizontally, and resolved them one by one in the future.
In the fierce battle, Luo Junfeng made a hard block, and the chain gun was almost knocked off, and he was horrified, and he hurriedly retreated. Before he could stand still, a cold light like lightning came straight to the center of his eyebrows, and he couldn't block it, and he withdrew a foot away, and the wedge was like a shadow, and the split surface swept down, Luo Junfeng barely blocked a wedge, his arm was like an electric shock, and he could no longer grasp the body of the gun, and the sound of "dang" was split away. Seeing that he could no longer stop the meteor-like move, with a "sonorous", a cooked copper rod blocked Yao Yuan's pursuit.
Yao Yuan looked up and saw that the person who came was a tall and sturdy old man in black who was over fifty years old, and shouted, "Who is coming?"
The old man sneered and said loudly: "'Stick Demon' Tian Kunpeng!"
※※※
"Hahaha! Shang landlord, it's been a long time!" came a smug laugh, and for Shang Xiaotian, this voice was all too familiar.
Before the words fell, a tall and thin middle-aged man in purple with a cold and domineering attitude walked into the arena unhurriedly. Shang Xiaotian followed the prestige, showing a slightly nervous and excited look, he had waited for so long, just waiting for this person to appear. Of course, this person is Shangguan Xiong.
On the left side behind him, followed by a poor scholar who looked like a fan in his hand, about thirty-two or three years old, Shang Xiaotian had seen his portrait and recognized him as Ma Mingshan, but the middle-aged white-faced man on the right did not know him.
"Pap", "Pap", "Pap" In the crisp clapping sound, Shangguan Xiong ordered the crowd to stop. The Yueyanglou gang, who was fighting bloodily, suddenly saw that the enemy had stopped, and they didn't know why for a while, they gasped and looked at each other, not knowing whether to continue to attack or stop for a while.
Shang Xiaotian shouted, "Stop!"
So the Chu Xiang League still surrounded the Yueyanglou gang, but both sides stopped.
Shang Xiaotian covered his face with frost, and shouted sharply: "Shangguan Xiong! Now, it is you who provoked the trouble! You have set off a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes like this, you are not afraid of the joint crusade of the world's martial arts colleagues!"
Shangguan Xiong said goodbye and sneered: "This problem is not to worry about the owner of the commercial building! Shangguan knows it in his heart. ”
After a pause, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, "Come, the owner of the commercial building, I will introduce you to a few new friends of our alliance." Pointing to the old man with the stick, he said: "This Tian brother has already reported his name, so there is no need to introduce it!" Then he pointed to the yin owl man beside him and said: "This is the 'Soul Hooking' Xi Fenglie Brother." He pointed to the man in white and said: "This is the "stormy waves" Bai Zhanhong brother. ”
Shang Xiaotian was expressionless, hugged his fists to the three of them one by one, and said coldly, "Jiuyang". The three of them also returned the salute with their fists.
"These two old gentlemen are good at kung fu!" Shangguan Xiong smiled and arched his hand to Yao and Dou, "May I ask the name of Gao?"
Yao and Dou ignored him and turned their faces away.
Shangguan Xiong touched his nose, but he didn't mind, smiled self-deprecatingly, raised his head and asked Shang Xiaotian: "Shang landlord, I didn't expect you to quietly recruit such a master, can you introduce it?"
Shang Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, pointed at Yao Yuan and said: "This is the old hero of 'Zhen Sanxiang' Yao Yuan Yao!" and pointed to Dou Xingkong and said: "This is the old man of 'Night Thief Thousand Families' Dou Xingkong!"
Shangguan Xiong hugged his fists to the two elders one by one, and Yao and Dou saw that Shang Xiaotian paid attention to him, so they ignored him anymore, and also hugged their fists and saluted back.
Shangguan Xiong seemed to be particularly interested in Dou Xingkong, his eyes lit up with excitement, and he stared at him with a smile and said, "Old Mr. Dou, you not only have extremely high martial arts, but your stealing skills are even the best in martial arts. I heard that even the Nangong family, known as the first family of martial arts, was stolen by Mr. A batch of treasures of the world, not only have they not been able to find those treasures, but they have not been able to find the whereabouts of Mr. Dou! Unexpectedly, Mr. has lived in Yueyang Tower! Shangguan has heard the name of Mr. Dou for a long time, and he has a long hatred for a shallow relationship, and he can't see the style! It is really a blessing to be able to see it today!"
Everyone didn't expect Shangguan Xiong to be so polite to Dou Xingkong, and they were surprised.
The people of the Chu Xiang League all thought: The alliance leader loves talent as his life, and this old thief Dou has a skill, which has made the alliance leader have the idea of loving talent again, and wants to appease him!
Including Shang Xiaotian, most of the people in Yueyanglou also had this idea, and for a while, they all looked at Dou Xingkong's pimple horse face.
Dou Xingkong was also a little embarrassed for a while, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Mr. Shangguan has praised it falsely! Dou Mou's little skill of carving insects is not able to climb into the hall of elegance!" After a pause, he continued: "As the old saying goes: 'A man dies for a confidant!' Over the years, the owner of the merchant building has taken him in, allowing Dou to live for more than ten years, and the contemptible people are grateful, and they will definitely repay him!"
Shangguan Xiong understood what he meant, and praised: "What a good man who values love and righteousness! Shangguan admires it so much...... Everyone under the Chu Xiang Alliance listened: Today's battle must not harm Mr. Dou's life!"
Dou Xingkong's face turned cold when he heard this, and he sneered: "Mr. Shangguan, don't be pretending! Dou will never accept your affection, and he will never show mercy to your subordinates!"
Shangguan Xiong sneered and glanced at him, ignoring him no longer.
Yao Yuan's face was red and white, and his heart was quite unpleasant. He saw that Shangguan Xiong was respectful to Dou Lao Thief, but he didn't take himself seriously at all. For a while, I felt a little sad in my heart, I have been away from the rivers and lakes for nearly 30 years, and my name in the rivers and lakes has long been forgotten. He secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely have a big battle with this Shangguan Xiong later, so that he could know how powerful he was!
Shang Xiaotian looked at Shangguan Xiong's unpredictable and profound expression, and became suspicious in his heart, feeling that what he said to Dou Xingkong just now should not be as simple as trying to appease him, but have some other deep meaning...... But what was it? Why did he order the gang not to hurt Dou Xingkong's life?...... Did he want to capture him alive and then slowly persuade him to surrender later? Or is it for some other purpose?
While he was thinking wildly, he suddenly introspected himself: Shang Xiaotian, Shang Xiaotian! At the moment of the great enemy, why do you want to think about these inconsequential things? You have to cheer up and fight hard with the enemy!
Shangguan Xiong also seemed to think of it with him, no longer paying attention to Dou and Yao, and raised his head to Shang Xiaotian and said, "Shang Lou Master, I want to discuss something with you." ”
Shang Xiaotian said coldly: "Please speak!"
Shangguan Xiong stared intently at Shang Xiaotian upstairs, and said slowly, "Now, you have been surrounded by us. What do you think will be the result if the two sides continue to fight fiercely?"
Shang Xiaotian sneered: "Are you threatening Shang?"
"No," Shangguan Xiong waved his hand, "I just want the landlord to tell me the results that should be produced in a matter-of-fact manner." ”
Shang Xiaotian snorted coldly, his face was ugly, don't look away.
Shangguan Xiong said slowly: "Let me speculate: if we continue to fight fiercely, we will lose three or four hundred brothers, and yours will be wiped out!
Shang Xiaotian said angrily: "Shangguan Xiong! Don't be complacent! How could Shang care about this life! But the sect has a breath, and he will fight you to the end!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Shangguan Xiong's mouth: "You don't care about your life! But what about your brothers?...... You and I are both the leaders of the gang, how can we watch our brothers die for nothing?"
Yueyanglou and the Chu Xiang League gang didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so they all looked at Shangguan Xiong suspiciously.
Shang Xiaotian shouted: "Shangguan Xiong! If you have something to say, say it quickly, let it go quickly! Don't talk about it like a! What do you mean? Say it quickly!"
Shangguan Xiong's face was as pale as the water of an ancient well, and he said slowly: "My meaning is very simple: I want to fight you one-on-one! If I win, you have to let me fall, and your brothers have to surrender to me; if I lose, I will also let you fall, and my brothers will also surrender to you! Do you dare, the owner of the commercial building?"
