Chapter 11: The Inn
As night approached, the inn had been lit up with a few remaining lights.
There was a soft knock at the door, not loud, but in the silence of the night, it seemed to knock on everyone's heart.
The crowd looked at the past, but there was no response, and no one dared to open the door, but everyone held the weapons in their hands.
It didn't take long for the knock on the door to continue to sound, still so softly and politely.
After the third knock on the door, someone finally mustered up the courage, Li Si suddenly stood up, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Who is outside!
"Hello, I'm the one who wants your life. ”
The outsider replied politely, and his voice was gentle, but the words he said were so terrifying.
Li Si was stunned, and almost everyone was stunned, but no one dared to answer.
The fifth Xiaolou frowned and looked at Zhan Yunran, only to see that he still hadn't moved, but he suddenly squatted down in autumn and hid under the table again.
The outsider then knocked on the door and said, "If you don't open the door again, you will be forced to enter." ”
There was still no one to answer from inside the door, but a hoarse male voice suddenly came from outside the door: "I said that you have a little white face and something to talk to them, just knock the door open." ”
"As long as it is a person, we must knock on the door first when we enter the room, even if we are here to kill people, this is a kind of politeness, but also a kind of cultivation. ”
"Then we can't get in today!"
"Enter, of course you have to enter, not only to enter but also to kill, not only to kill but also to kill. ”
The outsider let out a series of rust-like laughter, sounding as if they were crying and laughing.
The dart masters looked at each other, and quietly unsheathed their blades, ready to rush up at any moment to chop the outsiders into pieces of meat.
Suddenly, there was a flash of sword light in the darkness, and the door latch was neatly split in two by the sword light in the crack of the door, and then, the two wooden doors "creaked" and were slowly blown open by the wind.
The twenty-man dart master led by Li Si shouted loudly in unison and flew out of the door one after another.
Dark clouds obscure the waning moon.
It was pitch black outside, and it took twenty people to rush out, and immediately they heard the roar and the sound of the sword coming out of its sheath, and in just a dozen breaths, only screams were left outside.
The fifth Xiaolou had already grasped the sword and stood up again, his face even more solemn.
She looked at Zhan Yunran, only to see that Zhan Yunran also held the sword and frowned slightly.
The sudden silence in the inn was a little terrifying, and the fifth small building felt that the people upstairs were probably dead.
In order to kill one person, so many innocent people's lives were put on the line.
Fifth Xiaolou secretly said in her heart, either she had the boss's ulterior secret, or she killed the boss's father and wanted to rob other people's property. Otherwise, the fifth small building really can't think of any deeper grudges.
In fact, both of these things, one person did it in the fall.
After a long time, there was no movement outside, and the two sides seemed to maintain some kind of delicate balance.
The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, in the absence of the other party's whereabouts, not only the fifth small building, but even Zhan Yunran will not act rashly.
Few people dared to face the Shocking Sword in Zhan Yunran's hand. Although they are murderers, they don't want to become killed people, so they are waiting, like hungry wolves waiting for their prey to consume their last bit of strength.
But whoever is the prey, who is the hungry wolf.
The wind was blowing, and the two doors kept making a "creaking" sound.
Zhan Yunran still stood in place like a stone, and Autumn stood between the two of them, protecting a candle that had just been lit with his hand.
Fifth Xiaolou looked at the two of them, looked around again, and yawned secretly, she was already starting to feel sleepy.
Gradually, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and her hand holding the sword loosened a lot, and she suddenly wanted to lie down comfortably and sleep all night, but she knew that if she lay down here, she would never get up again.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the fifth small building was overjoyed, and then he was startled, secretly praying that the person who came would not be the other party's person.
The sound of horses' hooves came to an end, and then suddenly the roar stopped, and then only the distant sound of horses was left.
Yuwen Xia had been on the road for a day and a night, only to feel thirsty, hungry and sleepy, and saw an inn from a distance, and before he could be happy, he smelled the smell of blood in the air.
Yuwen Xia, who was still half-asleep on horseback, suddenly woke up, and in a few breaths, his body was temporarily adjusted to the best state, he jumped up from the horse, and quickly swept to the treetops on the side.
As soon as he stood firmly, he saw a figure flying past the eaves not far away, it was coming towards him, it was clearly to take people's lives, Yu Wenxia's face was solemn, and he quietly pulled out the long knife behind his waist.
The horse roared uneasily and softly, and suddenly, a throwing knife appeared on the horse's neck, followed by a bloody arrow rushing out of the wound, and the horse struggled, the knife fell off in the struggle, and the blood had flowed into a stream, and soon it fell to the ground without moving.
Yu Wenxia's pupils were shrinking, and the hand holding the knife couldn't help but tremble slightly.
This is his favorite horse, which has followed him for four years, and now he is so alive and dead in front of him,
He took a deep breath and exhaled softly. His eyes had already seen the direction in which the mysterious figure had disappeared, and he was sure that the man was still hiding nearby, because there was still a murderous aura left there.
Before he could make a move, there was a commotion at the inn.
The balance had been broken because Zhan Yunran had heard the location of those people.
Zhan Yunran's person was like suddenly turning into a slingshot bullet, and suddenly flew out and crashed through the roof.
Waiting for him on the roof were four fast swords, attacking from his four directions, Zhan Yunran dodged these four swords just by being short, and then, the Shocking Sword suddenly came out of its sheath, the sword light flashed, and the four swords were stabbed out in an instant, so the throats of these four people immediately had a hole.
When the body fell from the roof, the fifth building was still standing in place, but there was one more person in front of her.
turned out to be a very delicate and weak scholar, without the slightest murderous aura, and there was always a faint smile on a fair-skinned handsome face.
Now he was smiling and saying, "Give me the man behind you, and I'll spare you a way out." ”
Fifth Xiaolou didn't smile, just frowned and said, "Take out your sword." ”
Qiu Qiu, who was behind her, suddenly whispered: "This person is the 'jade-faced scholar' Liu Qiuyu, so it is a soft sword, be careful that there are five hidden arrow in the sleeve of his left hand." ”
Liu Qiuyu's smile was a little praised, and he was going to say something, but the fifth Xiaolou didn't plan to continue talking nonsense with him, Aji's sword suddenly came out of the sheath without warning, and the short sword stabbed into Liu Qiuyu's chest, and the scabbard brought the sword wind to cross his throat.
The blade of the sword had pierced his shirt, and at this moment, Liu Qiuyu slipped six feet backwards, and his back was already attached to the wall.
Not to be outdone, the fifth Xiaolou swooped forward, and Aji's sword stabbed straight at Liu Qiuyu.
Liu Qiuyu had no way to retreat, he instantly pulled out a cold light soft sword from his waist, and his hand shook as if it was about to wrap around the sword body of Aji Sword.
Fifth Xiaolou just frowned slightly, retracted the sword slightly, and then put the scabbard in her left hand to meet the soft sword, the soft sword entangled the scabbard like a poisonous snake, she snorted coldly, pulled the scabbard, and raised the Aji sword again, slashing towards the soft sword.
Only heard the crisp sound of "ping pong", the soft sword was immediately broken in two, Liu Qiuyu's eyes widened, he would never have thought that his ancestral divine sword would be split in two so simply.
When he looked at Aji Sword again, his eyes were full of greed.
With such a slight startle, the Aji sword stabbed at his throat again, and with a kick under his feet, he suddenly swept six feet sideways, and a cold arrow shot out of his sleeve in the air.
The fifth small building, which had been prepared for a long time, just used the scabbard to gently pick up the cold arrow, and at this time, Liu Qiuyu had already retreated outside the door.
The fifth building didn't plan to catch up again, but ran quickly to Autumn's side, because she had seen two figures fall from the roof.
Another person landed beside the fifth small building, it was Zhan Yunran, he gasped slightly, his face was already a little tired, but his body was straighter than a sword.
The fifth small building was also tired, not only tired, but also very hungry and sleepy.
Then, nearly ten more corpses rolled down from the hole in the roof, no one cared, almost everyone was staring at Zhan Yunran, only Liu Qiuyu was looking at the fifth small building, looking at the short sword in her hand.
It seemed to be a break, and neither side was in a hurry to make a move.
Suddenly, I heard someone say: "Zhan Yunran, the sword of the Amazing Rainbow, is really extraordinary when I see it today." ”
Zhan Yunran didn't speak, but he smiled and said, "Mr. Qiu, I haven't seen you for a few years, but your deadly double hook is still so sharp." ”
Old Mr. Qiu stroked his beard and smiled, with some wheezing and hoarseness in his voice: "I really want to ask you, where did you invite this god out of the mountain." ”
Autumn covered her mouth and smiled: "If you can make someone stab a sword, I will sue you." ”
Mr. Qiu said: "If you come alone, I will let you stab a sword." ”
Autumn snorted and laughed, and Mr. Qiu laughed too. Seeing that he couldn't fight for a while, the fifth small building breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment, the person who had been silent suddenly burst out, and flew out of the air and sprinkled more than a dozen silver needles with a ghostly light.
The silver hook has also been shot, and a cold arrow flies towards the head of the fifth small building!
