Chapter 21: The Death of the Dark Guard
Watching the sun rises at the head of the peak, listening to the wind and watching the clouds in front of the clouds, it is the famous scenery of Lingbo Mansion.
Viewing the sun peak, the cliffs on three sides are as high as 100 zhang and the flying ape is difficult to cross, the white clouds on the mountainside are circling and changing endlessly, the other side of the mountain wall opens a line of sky, looking up but seeing the stone layers stacked up, the mountain stream next to it gathers into a waterfall like a white veil that spreads out.
Climb to the top of the peak, scattered around the fine house, close to see the independence of quiet and elegant, far view the horizontal and vertical into the depth of the field of mystery, the so-called view of the sun peak in the Tibetan fairy garden, listen to the wind in the view of the cave sky.
At dusk, after listening to the wind and watching the Cangyun Pavilion, the old man's old hat and broken robe held the teacup and lowered his head to smell the fragrance of tea, and the middle-aged brocade robe and jade belt pinched the black chess piece and it was difficult to fall, and the conversation between the two had nothing to do with the wind and the moon and implied murder.
The old man looked up, saw that the middle-aged man was still frowning and pondering, and sighed leisurely: "When the empire laid out this chess game, how many heroes were stumped for thousands of years, why should you be persistent?"
"Whose chess piece is the layout person?" The middle-aged man flicked the black chess pieces with his fingers, raised his eyebrows and picked up the teacup, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of mockery: "The head of the standard camp is humble and does not forget the affairs of the world, hehe." Now that I'm here today, do you think those chess pieces can escape from this net?"
"Since I've found this place today, why do you bother asking. The old man put down the teacup and slowly stood up from the side of the stone platform: "You're right, I'm a standard camp master, and it doesn't matter if I accompany a few children to die here, but you are a nobleman, hehe, I don't know how many you have to be buried with." ”
The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly: "Decades of intercourse, you really want to do this!" The old man chuckled: "It's been fighting for decades, although I'm always losing, but you haven't won, hehe." ”
The clouds rolled under the Cangyun Pavilion, the center of the Cangyun Pavilion was turning around, the old man stood still, the middle-aged man sat silent, and a warrior in iron armor ran quickly outside the pavilion, standing outside and nodding to the middle-aged.
"Looks like they're coming. The middle-aged man's face was gloomy, and he threw the teacup outside the pavilion casually when he got up, and before the teacup fell to the ground, the fireworks in the hands of the ironclad man rose into the sky, and there was a sudden shout of killing in front of the wind view.
"For the sake of old friends, I'll give you a chance, if your secret guard can protect people under the iron guard, I won't deliberately make things difficult for you in the future, and you don't make trouble with me. ”
"From the moment you sent someone to assassinate us, we had to fight again. Playing chess, you lose. Fighting spirits, you can't win!"
Cangyun Pavilion has the wind, the wind is not strong, even the old and middle-aged robes have not been lifted, but the heavy eaves tile roof is separated from the stone pillar in the purlin breaking sound, like a lotus canopy rotating with the wind, the dust of the rafters for many years is shaken away, the bare stone pillar has no roof, only a few thin layers of dust and mist remain. The ironclad warrior outside the pavilion was like a giant hammer in his body, and his body fell to the ground with a soft and soft body, and when the ironclad touched the ground with a heavy muffled sound, the wind stopped, and the top of the pavilion suddenly dispersed, falling into the depths of the clouds and mist under the cliff.
"If you don't rebel, friends are still friends, so why should I make trouble. I'm gone, and I'm not going to shoot again. The old man walked slowly out of the pavilion.
The middle-aged man's face was pale, his hand was pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and he seemed to be eager to crush the inlaid jade, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you not afraid of my move?"
"You won't, and you won't dare. The old man didn't look back.
The old man turned a deaf ear to the shouts of killing, and seemed to be walking fast, but in the blink of an eye, he had turned over the cliff, and when he fell down the mountain, he could faintly see red blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Cangyun Pavilion, middle-aged sat up cross-legged, his expression changed between respect, hatred, and confusion, and it took a long time to close his eyes and settle down. Only the flowing wind heard him say to himself: "I can recover after ten or twenty years of recuperation, old friend, you are twenty-four years older than me, six months and twelve days, how long can you hold on." ”
After Gao Yuan and a few people arrived at the thatched hut, they did not encounter any risks, and they walked up the steps in front of the mountain to Guanri Peak, and they were all fascinated by the magnificent scenery.
Mei Ying hates to wear a strong outfit, if she changes into a beautiful dress and integrates her beautiful style into a good environment, she will definitely make Takagaki fall for it. Mei Ying's face turned red, Hua Yue turned her head and smiled but did not speak, the faint dimple hid the girl's thoughts.
Qin Rufeng's tense nerves all the way finally relaxed, and that long-lost evil smile appeared on his handsome face, and he deliberately walked a few steps quickly to block Gao Yuan's body, blocking him and the two girls in a line behind him.
"The beautiful scenery in front of me is picturesque, accompanied by beautiful women around me, Gao Yuan, hahaha. ”
Mei Ying's face turned even redder, and she was secretly grateful to Qin Rufeng in her heart, this villain turned out to be not completely annoying, I only hoped that his words could wake up the wood-like high wall. From the day the small restaurant wiped the water droplets and removed the wine pot and glass, the shadow of Gao Yuan lurked in the girl's heart. There have been few individual contacts for three years, but the shadow has gradually become clear, and the moment Takagaki rushes out of the lake and begins to show his strength, Mei Ying finally knows that that kind of affection is not just sympathy and pity.
Qin Rufeng joked in his mouth but his feet were fast, and Gao Yuan fled as if he was following closely, leaving a feeling of Sichun behind him, full of incomprehensible anger. Mei Ying subconsciously quickened her pace to pull Hua Yue at the end of the line.
"Gao Yuan, this fool, will definitely be able to Mei Ying to death. Hua Yue looked at the figure in front of him who was fleeing and chasing, and his heart was a little complicated for no reason: "Accompany the road of eternal life, Gao Yuan, hehe." ”
"Along the way, the scenery goes down the mountain to take a closer look, the beauty is always there, the high wall, and the scenery of the peak is important in the morning. ”
Qin Rufeng had no worries in his heart, he only hoped to watch the scenery of the peak as soon as possible, and his steps were like flying to lead the way, and the three of them had their own thoughts and could only chase after them slowly, and finally walked to the front of listening to the wind at dusk.
"Kill-" Guanmen, a group of ironclad warriors, holding long knives in their hands, shouted, scattered the tourists in front of the view, and rushed towards the high wall. On the courtyard wall, long arrows shot out from the hard bow, and the ironclad man quickly drew arrows and put them on the bowstring.
"Hurry back!" Qin Rufeng shouted, and there were a few more tourists in front of him, tourists holding short knives. The short knife chopped, as fast as lightning and thunder, laid a tight knife net, and the long arrows shot at the courtyard wall were twisted one after another, and one person took the opportunity to turn his head and order: "Like the wind, take them down the mountain, and someone will answer." Then he raised his short knife: "Wrap it up!"
"Dark Guard!" Qin Rufeng instantly understood the identity of the visitor, raised his long knife and advanced instead of retreating, following the dark guard towards the ironclad warrior. "Get out!" the dark guard who spoke turned around and raised his legs, kicking Qin Rufeng to the ground and rolling backwards. Gao Yuan hurriedly threw the spear to Hua Yue, pulled out the short knife from the boot, and stood in front of Qin Rufeng. Another round of sharp arrows came at the courtyard wall, once again blocking the sword net of the dark guard, and the few that missed the net were also knocked away by the Takagaki short knife.
"Down the mountain, Takagaki. Qin Rufeng bounced up from the ground and raised his sword to kill the way up the mountain, where the five secret guards fought with a group of ironclad men, retreating while fighting, and approached Hua Yue and Mei Ying.
Hua Yue's spear was in front of him, covering Mei Ying to block the ironclad man with a short bow, and when he saw Qin Rufeng suddenly kill from behind, he shouted while rushing in his mouth: "Follow the dark guard down the mountain, you protect, I will open the way." As he spoke, he rushed into the middle of the five guards.
"Kill!" In a low shout, the retreating Dark Guard's body suddenly changed, and the three of them formed a cone to meet the ironclad warrior in front of them, and the other two followed closely behind the tip of the cone. The long knife collided with the short knife, the flesh and steel competed, leading the dark guard to open the long knife, and pounced into the ironclad crowd, the short knife slashed through the blood light and collapsed, and several ironclad warriors next to him fell to the ground with swords in their throats, and the long knives on both sides were only slightly slower by half a minute, and they fell down on the dark guard one after another, and the leading dark guard became a severed piece of flesh on the ground.
"Kill!" The dark guard behind the tip of the cone picked up the long knife on the ground, and the partner had become a corpse, and raised the long knife in anger to charge, replacing the peak position of the partner, the long knife was like a rainbow, and several ironclad people were killed one after another, and the cone formation followed and moved down the mountain.
"Bastard, release the arrow!" The dark guard dagger behind the palace flew out of his hand, shot into the cheek of an ironclad man on the right, turned his head and scolded angrily, snatched Qin Rufeng's long knife, and chased after the tip of the cone.
Bold as Qin Rufeng, he was also shocked by the bravery of the dark guard before, blindly moving behind him, hearing the scolding of the dark guard, his heart was ashamed and his face turned red, and he hurriedly untied his longbow and put on a sharp arrow to shoot out, and shot the ironclad man in front of the conical array with an arrow.
Mei Ying has been holding a short bow in her hand, and she turned her head while rushing behind Hua Yue, worried about the safety of Gao Yuan behind the palace, but Gao Yuan chased a few steps to her side, and snatched the short bow in her hand, and the short knife cut the quiver strap around her waist in a flash, and unconsciously cut Mei Ying's strong suit. Before Mei Ying could scold, Gao Yuan was already stretching her bow and setting up her arrows. Looking at the side again, Hua Yue's short bow shot short arrows one after another, and the arrows shot at the ironclad warrior who was blocking the way, Mei Ying was extremely disappointed in her heart: "He is still stronger than me, maybe only the senior sister is as good as her." ”
One long, two short three bows and arrows joined the battle group, and the arrows and arrows were killed at close range, and the dark guards who rushed to kill were even more fearless of death, and the sharp guards fell again, and the dark guards behind the palace made up for it, although the dark guards on both sides were covered by bows and arrows, but they were also covered with blood, and the long knives they wielded desperately reduced the pressure of the sharp edges.
In front of the gate, several secret guards have completely different fighting styles. One by one, they do not seek to kill, they aim to intercept the ironclad people to chase and kill, cooperate with each other to swim in the crowd and attack and kill, relying on flexible body methods to delay the speed of the ironclad people. The two sides scuffled together, and the archers of the courtyard wall did not dare to release their arrows, and finally abandoned the long and short, and pulled out the short knife to kill from the view. Although the dark guard is brave, but the ironclad samurai are many after all, in the melee in front of the view, the dark guards fell to the ground one by one, and the last dark guard pierced the enemy's lower abdomen, but also let the long knife cut in the chest, and turned his head with difficulty before falling to the ground, and the figure of the partner was no longer visible behind, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his head was cut off by the angry ironclad samurai.
The cone-shaped array of the dark guard wrapped around Takagaki and several people, and finally rushed out from the interception of the ironclad warriors, rushed into the mountain road with a few people, and disappeared from the eyes of the chasing ironclad men as the mountain turned.
The narrow mountain road couldn't hide many people, and the dark guards covered Gao Yuan and they went down the mountain, killing a few groups of intercepting warriors along the way, and only two of the three dark guards remained, one of them had a long knife mark on his back and was bleeding profusely, and the other had a broken right arm and was holding a knife in one hand.
The mountain road turned again, and in front of me was a straight step, and the trees below the peak could already be seen. The secret guard with the knife in his back stopped, threw the long knife in his hand at Qin Rufeng, and indifferently ordered: "Leave all the bows and arrows behind, and take them along the way they came, someone will secretly protect you." Qin Rufeng was about to open his mouth to thank him, but the broken arm dark guard scolded impatiently: "Get out, this is the task of the dark guard, and there is no need for you to talk nonsense." ”
Leaving the bow and arrows, under the indifferent gaze of the two secret guards, Qin Rufeng took Gao Yuan and them down the mountain, and the way back was not thrilling, but several people were no longer in the mood to talk and laugh.
A team of dark guards in the standard battalion, listening to the wind and watching the battle, killed two sentinels, and reduced nearly half, which was the heaviest loss since the establishment of the dark guard, in order to protect a few students, in order to lure out the hidden spies. There were no casualties among Gao Yuan, and the secret guards completed their protection task, and if the spy was and what the ending was, they didn't want to know and couldn't know anymore, it was the task of the leaders of the Ling Bo Biao Battalion, and perhaps the answer would be buried in the dusty pile of books in the Biao Battalion.
