Chapter 39 Midnight Visitor
"Ten, nine, eight??????" The leader of the team below started to count the time. Obviously, the people besieging below were not ordinary Jianghu gangs or ordinary guards, but well-trained warriors. This kind of
The simplest and most practical strategy is to fire thousands of arrows first and then lead the army to attack. Since the entire inn has been sealed off and no one is allowed in or out, firing arrows like this will kill and injure many innocent people.
Xi Yingzhen looked from the window, and sure enough, downstairs a Yulin army had been surrounded by an iron barrel, and a general was commanding the army. Looking back at Lan Yue, the operation was at its last moment.
"Three, two, one!" shouted the general downstairs: "Time's up, archers, nock your arrows! Full bow!"
Xi Yingzhen glanced at Lan Yue, and saw that Lan Yue's eyes suddenly opened, and two golden lights flashed away! Knowing that Lan Yue was done, the old Taoist shouted: "Follow me!" and kicked the window open.
, pulled down the curtains smoothly, and jumped down from the third floor, followed closely by Lan Yue.
The general downstairs heard a sound from a window somewhere upstairs, and then someone jumped down, pointed his sword with his hand, and shouted "Fire the arrow!" Only a "bang" sound was heard, and the sound of thousands of bowstrings was only heard.
With a single sound, thousands of arrows gathered together and turned into an evil dragon, roaring towards Xi Yingzhen and Lan Yue.
At this time, Xi Yingzhen was still in mid-air, and saw that the curtain in his hand turned into a huge high-speed rotating shield under his dance. However, Lan Yue was a little behind him when he jumped. When the arrow came,
, there will be no cover for the blue moon.
At this moment, something incredible happened. Xi Yingzhen, who was already in the air, paused for a moment, as if he suddenly stopped while walking on the stairs. He just waited for Lan Yue and placed him behind the "shield".
At this time, the rain of arrows arrived as promised. There was a "crackling" sound in my ears, like rain hitting the window sill.
When the "rain of arrows" first subsided, there was an extremely brief silence on the street, as if time had stood still for a brief period at that moment. The sergeants raised their eyes to look, and there was no corpse that had been shot into a hedgehog as expected, but they saw a
The old man, the young man, were standing lively on the street.
When He Cheng, the general of the Yulin Army, saw this scene, he was furious. He waved his long sword in his hand and led his men to charge over. Suddenly, the street was filled with the flash of swords and the sound of horse hoofbeats.
Xi Yingzhen regarded it as nothing, and just whispered to Lan Yue: "You have just completed Dafa, so don't act rashly. Just follow me closely." Lan Yue nodded in agreement.
The cavalry was in front, followed closely by the infantrymen holding spears and halberds. You must know that the emperor's imperial edict did not say that Lan Yue must be captured alive. It only said that "regardless of life or death, he must be punished before the law." This was also known to Sergeant Yu Lin.
Lan Yue is extremely brave. Who would risk their lives to capture Lan Yue alive? Everyone wants to take credit for Lan Yue's head, so everyone rushes to be the first to kill Lan Yue on the spot.
Xi Yingzhen looked at the horse cavalry getting closer and closer, showed a rather helpless expression, and said to himself: "You are old, no one remembers who you are. Decades ago, the old Taoist stood like this on the street, who dared to pat the horse?
What’s the next step forward?”
In an instant, two groups of cavalry had rushed forward from both sides. The Yulin soldiers immediately waved their long swords in their hands, and the cold light shone, turning the warm early summer into a freezing cold.
The cavalry has arrived. Suddenly, two rays of golden light emitted from the slits of Lao Dao's narrowed eyes. The golden elixir in his body that had been dormant for a long time seemed to come to life, triggering powerful and explosive energy. The Lao Dao in Lan Yue's eyes had changed from real to virtual.
, turned into a high-speed rotating golden light, spinning around itself. Lan Yue could no longer see the figure, but screams continued to be heard from all around.
After ten breaths of time, the golden light disappeared. Xi Yingzhen stood with his hands behind his back. Lan Yue looked around again and realized what had just happened. It turned out that the old Taoist had used the golden elixir method, spinning at high speed while dropping nearly a thousand pieces of gold around him.
The feathered arrows were shot with unparalleled speed, but the movement was extremely fast, so fast that the naked eye could no longer see clearly, and each feathered arrow was full of the true power of the golden elixir. The whole street was filled with feathers injured by arrows.
The sergeant, the wailing and the neighing of the horses were heard together. Only a few people missed the arrow, not because they missed the shot, but because there were only those arrows around Xi Yingzhen at that time, and there were no extra arrows to shoot.
Lan Yue carefully looked at the wailing people lying on the ground, but found that none of them had been shot in the vital point, and no one had been shot to death. They just temporarily lost the ability to do anything. Lan Yue immediately admired Xi Yingzhen. On the one hand,
Although the old Taoist uses thunderbolt methods, he also has the heart of a Bodhisattva. What is even more rare is that the sense of propriety in the technique can be so accurate. Unless I have witnessed it with my own eyes, I cannot believe that the Golden Elixir Dafa is so powerful. I secretly make up my mind to work hard and work hard.
, practice this method quickly.
Looking at the injured people lying on the ground all over the street, Xi Yingzhen murmured: "Why bother?" He turned to look at Lan Yue and smiled: "I'm old! My sense of propriety in striking is not as good as before, and a few people were seriously injured.
.Are you okay?”
Lan Yue nodded and said softly: "I'm fine."
The old Tao also nodded, raised his hand, signaling Lan Yue to follow him, and headed out of the city with his hands behind his back, Lan Yue following behind. Those who fell to the ground saw the old Tao coming, and they all made way. Only that
The leading general muttered as if he wanted to ask the old Taoist his name, but he didn't dare to ask when he came up to him. He swallowed the words on his lips and had to watch the old Taoist leave as if nothing happened.
Lan Yue came to the general, stopped and asked, "I'm curious. I've only been in Zhenjiang for a long time. How did you know that I was in Zhenjiang and how did you find my place to stay?"
General Yu Lin took a sip, turned his head away, and proudly did not answer.
Lan Yue knelt down, a faint golden light flashed in his eyes, and whispered: "Wrong answer." After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the arrow shaft that was still inserted into the man's body, stirred it hard a few times, and pulled it out.
The arrow had a barb, and it immediately tore off a piece of flesh.
The general of the Yulin Army was so painful that he was sweating, but he still did not answer or say a word.
Lan Yue nodded and said: "What a good man! I admire you the most." After saying "Puff", he inserted the feather arrow back into the original wound, and inserted it deeper than before. This time the arrow hit the bone.
Go ahead, the general couldn't help but screamed.
Lan Yue stared at him with her pale golden eyes and said softly: "Do you think we can play a game? I will use this feather arrow to insert it back and forth into your wound and pull it out to see how many times you can stand it?
How many times do you think you can survive before you die?" As he spoke, he pulled out the arrow and immediately inserted it heavily into the original wound.
The man was dying of pain, and when Lan Yue wanted to prick him again, he couldn't hold it in any longer, and said in a trembling voice: "Lan??????, little Marquis, please stop torturing me, I'll tell you everything??????"
?”
"I was ordered by Commander-in-Chief Zhu Bai to blockade the waters of the Yangtze River in Zhenjiang and Yangzhou to prevent you from crossing the river and escaping to the north or flying down the river and across the sea to escape from China. We also just arrived at the garrison at noon yesterday. Who
At midnight, a awning boat came from the other side of the canal. When my men went to check, two masked men came ashore. They could tell me my name and position in the Yulin Army, and said there was an emergency.
The sergeant wanted to meet me on official business. Although the sergeant saw that the man was masked, he was very official and powerful. He hurriedly led him to my tent. The man claimed to be a friend of Zhu Datong, but it was inconvenient to reveal his identity, and told us
You are in the city of Zhenjiang, and even the inn where you are staying has been described in detail. When I was half-convinced, the man took out a Mongolian silver sheath and gem-encrusted dagger. I immediately recognized it as the commander's favorite thing, and then led the troops.
As for who that person is, I really don’t know at all, just??????"
Lan Yue asked: "Just what?"
