Chapter 25: The Way of the Killer
These Golden Praetorian Guards had no way to start, they were originally aiming at Sun Hucheng, but when they stabbed out of this position, they became Dongyang's. I can't help at all, so I can only do it in a hurry.
Here at the north gate, Sun Li fought against the eunuch Wei Qian, Sun Li struggled very hard, and was completely suppressed by Wei Qian. After only a dozen rounds, there were many blood marks on his body, although the wounds were not deep, but he clearly felt the gap in strength. Sun Li blocked Wei Qian's finger to seal his throat many times, and he also tried his best to do his best, and he only wanted Zhou Lang to retreat as soon as possible.
Wei Qian also saw a black snake enter the dormitory, and as soon as he was about to retreat inside, he was stopped by Sun Li and fought with him, the more eager he was to kill Sun Li but repeatedly failed to succeed, the more impatient his heart became.
Zhou Lang jumped into the dormitory, and the palace maids, eunuchs, and concubines in the dormitory had all been awakened by the noise outside, and each of them had an extra crossbow in their hands. Zhou Lang looked at the surrounding environment, it was already pitch black, and there was no sound in the quiet of the dormitory, or it was probably buried by the shouts of killing outside.
When Zhou Lang was observing outside, he saw a faint light in the dormitory, which was extinguished after entering. Remembering the location of the light, the cat approached. Suddenly, a dark shadow passed not far away, Zhou Lang threw out the flying snake cone in his hand, only to hear a "plop" sound, and then heard countless arrows shooting, accompanied by the eunuch's shrill voice, the screams echoed in the silent dormitory.
Zhou Lang continued to approach the place where the light was originally lit by the faint light outside, which was a large bed, with high bedposts in the four corners, reaching out to touch it, engraved with a dragon head.
Zhou Lang knew in his heart that the Son of Heaven in Jincheng was near here. At this time, he didn't dare to act rashly, he didn't know where to shoot arrows in the dark, and no matter how strong his martial arts were, it would be difficult to resist this close, many and invisible hidden weapons.
The king of Beiling heard the sound at this time, and although the old wounds on his body were not healed, he still carried his spear and took all the guards around him and rushed to the dormitory of the emperor of Jincheng. Seeing that Wei Qian was fighting with Sun Li and wanted to come forward to help, Wei Qian said loudly: "Lord Wang, enter the dormitory, the snake-eyed man who fought with me last night is in the dormitory." ”
The King of Beiling did not know that the Son of Heaven of Jincheng had issued an order not to allow any man other than himself to enter his dormitory, and it was a felony to exterminate the Nine Clans. Therefore, the Golden Praetorian Guard outside anxiously wandered outside, not daring to enter.
King Beiling quickly opened the door of the dormitory, but was shot by an arrow from nowhere, this arrow was shot by the palace concubine in a nervous tension, right in the chest on the right side of the King of Beiling, King Beiling fell to the ground with a scream. The guards behind him hurriedly dragged the King of Beiling out, only to see that the King of Beiling was out of breath but not in breath, the guards hurriedly carried the King of Beiling to the direction of the imperial doctor, and the remaining guards no longer dared to enter the dormitory.
Zhou Lang didn't have time to think about this change in a hurry, he heard a very light footsteps, a flying snake cone flew in the direction of the sound, and a woman's scream was accompanied by a "poof" sound of falling to the ground.
The footsteps hadn't stopped, and Zhou Lang was a flying snake cone again, this time with the sound of a man's scream, and it fell heavily to the ground. Zhou Lang expected in his heart that this was the Son of Heaven in Jincheng, because the voice of the eunuch would be somewhat sharp, and there were only concubines and eunuchs in the Son of Heaven's bedroom, and the Golden Praetorian Guard was not allowed to enter.
The injured person was the Son of Jincheng, and he heard the Son of Heaven of Jincheng shouting loudly: "Praetorian Guard, come in and rescue the driver." ”
Zhou Lang's cat body walked forward quickly, but he found that many black shadows quickly surrounded the person who was injured by the flying snake cone, and heard the sound of installing arrows into the crossbow. Zhou Lang stopped again, and after a long time in the dark, his eyes slowly adapted to the darkness. Looking around, there is a table not far away. At this time, many Praetorian Guards had poured in, holding torches in their hands, Zhou Lang rolled under the big bed, and pushed the head of the bed violently with both hands, and a big bed was pushed up, and the palace maids, concubines, and eunuchs around Jincheng Tianzi were overly nervous, and before they could see what it was, they all hit the crossbow in their hands on the big bed, and the bed surface of this big bed instantly became a hedgehog.
Zhou Lang grabbed the corner of the table beside him sideways and threw it hard at the Praetorian Guards who had just entered the door, and this fierce force slapped the Praetorian Guards who had just entered the door out of the door.
The table was obliquely and deeply stuck on the door frame, and at this time, more than a dozen Praetorian Guards rushed in from the north gate, Jincheng Tianzi was injured, and he was obese, sitting on the ground and couldn't move, Zhou Lang walked straight to Jincheng Tianzi, and the Praetorian Guards rushed over to block Jincheng Tianzi, Zhou Lang's sword skills were so fast that he couldn't even see clearly, let alone defend. In the flash of the sword, two Golden Praetorian Guards fell, and the Praetorian Guards behind them kept blocking in front of the Golden City Heavenly Son, but they only fell down the moment they stood there. Even the ten-man captain couldn't withstand two moves, and in the end, the two hundred-man captains were left to resist desperately, and the guards outside poured in even more. There were too many people in the target in front of him, the room was so big that there was no place to put his feet at this time, the ground was full of corpses, blood stained the floor, and blood and flesh felt sticky when stepped on his feet.
Zhou Lang alone turned this gorgeous dormitory into a hell on earth, but he couldn't kill the Jincheng Heavenly Son who was close in front of him. Just as Zhou Lang was struggling forward, a man in black flew in through the window, wearing the night suit of a black snake, holding a heavenly robbery knife in his hand, standing in front of the Son of Heaven in Jincheng. I saw that the person put the Heavenly Tribulation Knife in his hand and plunged it straight into the fat neck of the Son of Heaven in Jincheng, and the blade of the knife was nailed deep into the wall behind him through his neck, and blood gushed out. After the man in black succeeded, he rolled over and walked out of the window and disappeared into the depths of the palace. Behind him, the Praetorian Guards and some of the palace guards chased after him, and the speed of this person's footsteps had already disappeared.
This sudden change made Zhou Lang very puzzled, and he didn't remember that there was such a character in the Black Snake, although his martial arts were not as strong as his own, but he was also a good hand, such a vicious technique should be easily reused in the Black Snake. With his mind in mind, the knife in his hand became faster and faster, quickly clearing out the few remaining Praetorian Guards in the dormitory.
At this time, the Praetorian Guards saw that the Son of Heaven in Jincheng was dead, and they had lost the will to fight, and the errand of escorting them was not done, and they would only die worse than here when they returned to Jincheng. The Praetorian Guard, who was already invincible to Zhou Lang, thought that there would no longer be much resistance here, and it was cleaned up in an instant. Stepping forward and seeing that the incredible expression of the Son of Kinjo was already frozen there, he cut off the hand of the Son of Kinjo with the ring, and the whistle in his mouth blew out the tone of retreat.
Sun Li jumped a few steps back, and with Zhou Lang's help, the two of them shot more than twenty flying snake cones at Wei Qian, each of which was aimed at the vital point, sealing the way to dodge. Wei Qian dodged and resisted, blocking all the flying snake cones, and then saw that Sun Li and Zhou Lang were already a hundred steps away.
When Sun Hucheng heard the whistle, he retreated while fighting, and the janissary Chang Dongyang always blocked the way and did not give him a chance to escape. Sun Hu's cost is evenly matched with Dongyang, and now he wants to retreat, but he can't, seeing more and more people rushing to this side, his heart began to be impatient. When fighting between masters, what you have to fight for is the difference between the stars and a half.
Sun Hucheng was impatient, and it was inevitable that he would have omissions in his moves, and he was seized by Dongyang and cut off with a horizontal knife. This force used all his strength, and Sun Hucheng didn't have time to dodge, so he could only flip the handle of the Heavenly Tribulation Knife in his hand and hold it upside down, and try his best to block the blow in his waist.
Mo knife is a long knife, this time it is the full strength of the circle, Sun Hucheng was hit by this heavy blow and retreated a few steps, barely standing firm, although the knife is still in his hand, the tiger's mouth has been shaken to the point that he can't use his strength, the palm of his hand is cracked, and the blood flows. Dozens of guards rushed behind him, holding spears in their hands, and surrounded Sun Hu in a group.
Sun Hucheng still didn't give up at this time, his right hand was already numb from the shock, and he couldn't use his strength at all. Instead, he held a knife in his left hand and jumped into the ranks of soldiers to slash left and right, in a vain attempt to break out of the encirclement. If there is still a glimmer of life in the past, but the left hand makes the knife completely uneasy. Dong Yang also jumped into the ranks of soldiers at this time, and these soldiers all consciously retreated and withdrew from a circle, in which only Dong Yang and Sun Hucheng were fighting.
Sun Hucheng knew that he was not Dongyang's opponent at this time, but the knife in his hand never slowed down, but became more and more comfortable, and this kind of life and death situation stimulated people's inner potential even more. The knife in his left hand is getting faster and faster, coupled with the already desperate posture, Dongyang can't take him for a while.
Sun Hucheng saw more and more soldiers around him surrounding him, and thought of the rules set when he and his eldest brother created the black snake, he would rather die than be captured alive, even if he had to be captured alive, there was no antidote poison in the whistle in his mouth, and he swallowed it and died. If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, you will only live for a while, and the black snake will do whatever it takes to get rid of you.
The knife in Sun Hucheng's hand did not stop, nor did he slow down, but he used the tip of his tongue to pick out the poison hidden in the whistle and was ready to swallow it at any time.
At this moment, a whistle was heard in the distance, coming from the south, and the rhythm means "persistence". Sun Hucheng immediately ignited his fighting spirit, the knife in his hand made it faster, and his right hand slowly recovered, although the tiger's mouth was cracked and the blood flowed, now he also regained consciousness, and pulled out the slightly short knife on his waist.
Dongyang originally saw that he was already a trapped beast, but he didn't expect that there would be rescuers not far away, and there were only twenty or thirty Golden Praetorian Guards left under him, so he didn't know if he could withstand it. At this time, Dongyang didn't know that the Son of Heaven in Jincheng had died in the dormitory.
And Wei Qian was holding the body of the Son of Heaven in Jincheng in the dormitory at this time, and cried with a sharp voice.
Zhou Lang was the only one who came to save Sun Hucheng, Zhou Lang covered Sun Li to kill ten miles outside the palace in one go, handed over the ring to Sun Li, turned around and rushed into the palace again to save Sun Hucheng.
At this time, the riot had spread to the point that all the people in the palace knew that the 100,000 soldiers outside the palace had been ordered to be on guard inside. The guards in the palace had already surrounded Sun Hucheng, Wei Qian with that crying face also participated in it, and Dongyang Wei Qian and the two joined forces to fight Sun Hucheng. Sun Hucheng can only resist, and he has been injured in many places on his body, although it is not fatal, but it is also bloody, I don't know how long he can resist.
