Just when Marquis Jinghai was busy directing the soldiers to line up and resist the waves of Mo Ling guards who rushed forward, Jiang Yan finally got rid of the corpse that almost overwhelmed him. Helplessly, the body on his shoulders
The arrow wound was quite serious, and blood dripped down his arm in clusters at his feet, making him feel dizzy.
"Zi Yin! General Baili! Where are you? Are you still alive?"
Jiang Yan felt that his voice had become muffled and could not be heard clearly, but he still roared at the top of his lungs. After fighting for his life with Yu Li and experiencing two more arrow rain attacks, he just wanted to confirm his voice as soon as possible.
Whether his companions were well or not, he did not realize that this reckless and impulsive move made him once again an extremely obvious target on the execution ground.
It wasn't until he saw the soldiers of the boat division rushing towards him again brandishing their weapons that the black-eyed boy hurriedly picked up his Xiaotianmo again in the blood soaked everywhere. At this moment, he was already staggering due to blood loss and
He became weak due to the severe pain, and tried hard to put up a defensive posture, but his numb left arm could not be raised at all. What's worse, this feeling was gradually spreading from the injury to the whole body.
At that moment, a black armor warrior had already attacked within three steps of Jiang Yan. The long knife in his hand had not tasted human blood, and glowed with a permeating greed. But what could be seen clearly in the young man's blurred vision was
, but there was only the face of a young man in front of him who looked even more immature than himself, and a twisted and ferocious expression on his face that seemed to have sworn hatred.
For the first time in his life, the black-eyed boy took half a step back out of fear of death, but the weapon in the opponent's hand still struck him firmly on his left rib, which was almost unable to move.
At first, Jiang Yan could not notice any pain at all. He only felt as if a leaf was lightly scratching his body. But soon, he gradually felt the pain caused by the cold blade traveling between his skin and flesh.
The hot touch is like a piece of solid ice pressing on the chest, gradually burning in the cold winter sun.
When the hot blood gushed out from the wound, the young man finally felt a sharp pain. His breathing suddenly became labored, as if the god of death was announcing his arrival. Jiang Yan understood that one of his
His feet had already entered the gate of hell, but even so, he still used all his strength to dodge while continuing to call his companion's name:
"General Baili! Ziyin! Where are you?!"
"They are dead a long time ago. You should accept your fate obediently!" The soldier on the opposite side rushed forward again brandishing his sword.
The young man watched helplessly as the opponent's knife tip stabbed towards his heart, but he could no longer lift up Xiao Tianmo to block. He wanted to take another step back, but his feet felt as heavy as lead.
As soon as he moved, his center of gravity became unstable, and his whole body fell backwards.
Jiang Yan only felt his chest tighten, and blood spattered all over his face. The soldier on the opposite side hit him hard, pressing him so hard that he couldn't breathe. However, the long knife in his hand failed to stab him.
Instead of wearing the cowhide armor on the boy's chest, it plunged into the ground only half an inch away from his left ear with a "plop".
It turned out that even when he fell to the ground, Jiang Yan was always holding Xiao Tianmo tightly in his hand. The Mo Dao swept forward, making the soldier who rushed forward unable to dodge. Instead, he was cut into two pieces, killing him.
on the spot.
In the blood and excrement all over the floor, the black-eyed boy who was still breathing struggled to hold up his body with his uninjured right arm. All he could see was red. Along with his heavy breathing, the sound in his ears gradually
A familiar voice came:
"Jiang Yan! We, we are here! General Baili - he was hit by an arrow!"
Jiang Yan immediately followed the sound and saw vaguely in the middle of the execution ground a few steps away. Qi Ziyin, dressed in white, was still imprisoned under the shackles. Although the clothes all over his body were stained with different shades of red by blood, they were not.
He was not injured at all. Instead, Xiang Baili knelt down among the mountains of corpses, holding two swords in his hands. His back was hit by seven or eight iron arrows.
No one could have imagined that when the arrows hit, the highly skilled "Land War Hundred Miles" actually used his body to block those deadly iron clusters for the opponent in order to protect Qi Ziyin who had not yet broken free from the shackles!
At the moment, he was seriously injured, but he still waved the weapon in his hand and cut off the last iron chain that tied Qi Ziyin. The young master immediately got up and ran to his mentor, helping him who was covered in blood. However, there were no two people just walking out.
After taking another step, the man made a plop and weakly knelt down on the ground again.
General Tsing Yi picked up the two swords that had fallen at his feet, and handed them to the young man's hands. A trace of bright red flowed from the corner of his mouth: "Young master, hold Yin Ya firmly, and go to help Yan."
!You two must escape from the city alive today!"
"If I had known this, why would the general come to rescue me? I will carry you on my back!"
Qi Ziyin shook his head vigorously, gritted his teeth and lifted Xiang Baili onto his shoulders, but was stopped by General Qingyi:
"Zi Yin, don't forget, your identity is the young master of Ye Kingdom! Although I, Xiang Baili, am not a gentleman, if I let my beloved disciple die unjustly like this, I will be scolded in the spine!
The set of five swords I taught you over the past three years was prepared for today!"
"But how could I leave the general like this -"
The young man in white took Yin Ya reluctantly, still wanting to pull him away together. At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of a string behind him. The young man immediately looked in the direction of the sound and saw Marquis Jinghai outside the venue.
He was holding an open-string crossbow in his hand. And the direction he was aiming at was General Yan, who had fallen to the ground not far away and was unable to dodge!
"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!"
The seriously injured General in Tsing Yi suddenly pushed Qi Ziyin away from him, and then jumped up from the ground like a gust of wind. His speed was surprisingly fast, and he used all his strength to block the black-eyed boy!
Hearing a pop, Jiang Yan, who thought he was doomed, suddenly saw a cyan shadow colliding with a nearby feather arrow. At this time, Xiang Baili could no longer control his body, and his whole body was iron-clad.
The force on the arrow caused it to flip several times in the air before it fell heavily to the ground. It had been shot in the heart!
Under the command of Qi Shouyu, the soldiers of the Marine Division have also successfully repelled the Mo Ling Guards under the Crown Prince's command. More and more weapons have turned their direction, like rows of devouring teeth, heading towards the execution ground.
The three masters and disciples came and bit each other hard!
Seeing his mentor shot with an arrow in front of him, the black-eyed boy suddenly felt a buzzing in his head. Sadness and anger instantly filled every corner of his heart. It was like the feeling he felt when he witnessed the tragic death of his parents many years ago.
I could hear my own heartbeat clearly, just like the rumbling war drums beating on the battlefield, gradually covering up all the sounds around me.
The heart-wrenching sadness became more and more intense, causing the blood in the young man's body to surge, and an inexplicable powerful force burst out from his body that had been almost completely numb before!
Before Jiang Yan realized the changes that had taken place in his body, Xiao Tianmo, who was tightly held in his hands, had already rushed out like a black dragon. In just a moment, the face of a young soldier a few steps away
His muscles suddenly twitched, as if he couldn't figure out why this opponent, who seemed to be so weak and like flesh on his body, could still attack.
However, before he could think clearly, Xiao Tianmo, who was cutting iron like clay, had already stabbed into the soldier's chest covered with black armor with ease. In front of the sharp blade, the thick iron armor was as fragile as a piece of paper.
The young man's skin and flesh were pierced in an instant, his bones were cut off, and his internal organs were chopped into pieces. His eyes quickly dispersed, and the long knife he held high in his hand fell to the ground with a crash.
However, the black-eyed boy did not stop there. Instead, he shouted loudly and gathered strength to press the blade down, splitting the man in front of him in half from his chest to his crotch!
Facing the blood-stained corpse, the young man did not show any pity on his face, but seemed to be looking at a freshly slaughtered pig. There was murderous intent in his eyes, and he only glared forward, and was frightened.
The other soldiers who came forward stopped and immediately lost the courage to go forward and fight.
"Now that the other party is dead and the other is seriously injured, what is there to be afraid of?! Kill them for me, and one head can be exchanged for a thousand pieces of gold!"
The voice of Marquis Jinghai came from behind the soldiers who were as dense as black ants. The high bounty tempted the young people to attack again with swords. However, this scene was enough to make ordinary people fall into despair, but it made a lone soldier fight.
The black-eyed boy became more and more brave. He looked up to the sky and roared, the sound shook the roof tiles, then shook the blood-stained Mo Dao in his hand, and charged forward with the momentum of saving the river and burning the boat, even more with Xiao Tian
Mo merged into one and turned into a jet of black-gold lightning, which plunged straight into the opponent's encirclement!
"Jiang Yan, are you crazy?!"
Qi Ziyin understood that this was the last ditch effort of his companions, but he did not dare to look at it. He could only hear the blood-curdling wails and screams coming from the execution ground.
For a time, blood and internal organs were scattered everywhere, and stumps and broken arms were everywhere. General Yan, who looked like a moth flying into the flames, seemed to be possessed by the dragon soul left in Xiaotianmo in ancient times.
Rushing from left to right in the airtight enemy formation, they forced their way out of a bloody path!
And the end of this bloody road is none other than Jinghaihou Qi Shouyu!
"Come and accept your life!"
The black-eyed boy was determined to avenge Xiang Baili, and in anger, he resorted to destroying the mountain with an aura that could kill all ghosts and gods. However, the short and fat prince did not panic because of this, and faced the attack.
The person in front of him laughed coldly:
"Kid, your life is really tough! But do you think that you can stop this king with just a moment of bravery? If I hadn't planned ahead and prepared everything in advance over the years, how could I have achieved this step by step?
Today? Your miserable life will be decided by me. Even if you continue to struggle, it will be nothing more than a mantis trying to beat a chariot!"
After finishing speaking, Qi Shouyu in front of Jiang Yan once again disappeared out of thin air like a mirage in front of everyone, leaving only a strange black crystal the size of a fingernail on the ground! It turned out that he himself had never come to the execution ground from the beginning.
It's just a magic weapon that can be used to cast an illusion that's real!
The black-eyed boy jumped into the air, and finally came to his senses amidst Qi Ziyin's exclamation. But he only looked back at his companions, and then he was completely surrounded by black armor warriors. Although relying on Xiao Tianmo in his hand,
It can still temporarily prevent enemy soldiers from approaching, but one person's physical strength is limited after all, and the endless stream of naval reinforcements are still lined up from outside the field and rushing over non-stop for reinforcements!
At this seemingly desperate moment of life and death, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded over the execution ground. The sound penetrated the sky like the cry of a skylark, causing the black armor warriors to raise their eyes one after another. But before anyone among them could wait,
After reacting, dozens of figures rushed out from the alleys around the execution site.
The one-sided situation was instantly broken by this new force. No one knew when the newcomers were already ambushing here, let alone whose orders they obeyed. However, this group of people seemed to be a force
The strong current rushed straight into the closed circle on the execution ground, and in the blink of an eye the ranks of black armor warriors were scattered into pieces, and they were scattered and disorderly!
Although the costumes of the visitors were the same as those of ordinary people in the city, they were all experts who could match a hundred. They also held standard weapons of various colors in their hands, and in just one confrontation, they killed nearly 30% of the enemy army. Previously.
General Yan, who was still surrounded by human walls of three floors inside and three floors outside, was no longer the target of public criticism in the blink of an eye.
The black-eyed boy couldn't help but secretly rejoiced that he was still alive, and hurriedly ran towards his companions. Seeing that Qi Ziyin had survived, he also cried and shook his body towards Baili again, not letting up.
He closed his eyes:
"General Baili, the reinforcements you arranged have finally arrived! We will take you out. You will be fine!"
After hearing this, the young man with black eyes covered in blood could not hide the surprise on his face:
"Ziyin, what nonsense are you talking about? General, he has not arranged any reinforcements!"
"Then what are the origins of these people now? And why do they want to save us?"
"Why do you care so much? Ziyin, please help me help the general up quickly. Our horses are tied under a purple locust tree in the northwest corner of the execution ground. Let's fight out of the city first!"
With that said, the two children struggled to hold up General Tsing Yi's body and ran forward. But Xiang Baili, who was already dying, shook his head and pushed away their hands trying to steady himself:
“You two—go—that’s an order!”
"Teacher! If we want to live, we will live together, and if we want to die, we will die together!"
Jiang Yan's eyes were red from holding back, but he still couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes. This young man, who was as strong as a stone, was wailing at this moment and couldn't stop at all.
"Why are you crying, you brat... Everyone is destined to die, but you should die well. You and Ziyin are the only students I have taught in this life, and you are also the pride of my life... The next road must be walked by yourselves...
Remember, there is no road in this world, and everyone’s future is determined by themselves. There is no right or wrong in troubled times. Whatever you care about most in your heart, hold on to it! For your own sake,
And for the sake of the promise between each other...live..."
The corners of the Tsing Yi General's mouth raised slightly, and he squeezed out the last smile on his face, but he was no longer as free and easy as usual. At the moment, his Tsing Yi was dyed purple-black with blood, but his left hand still felt that he had always hung on it.
The nine-hole pottery Xun on his body was tremblingly handed to the two young men:
"My only regret in this life is that I can never see Xiaojia again... A few days ago... I bought a house in Jiushanpan, and the key is hidden in this pottery xun. You... take this xun
Bring it to her and tell her to forget...me..."
Xiang Baili's voice gradually weakened. No matter what Qi Ziyin and Jiang Yan said, he couldn't hear it. At this moment, he only felt that everything around him was shrouded in white light, and his limbs and bones were filled with blood loss.
The chill that had come suddenly disappeared. The former top warrior on land raised his head and looked at the autumn sun hanging high in the sky, with a drop of cold tears shed from the corners of his eyes.
"If you two don't leave quickly, won't you be living up to the sacrifice of General Baili in vain?!"
At the same time, a man's voice boomed behind the teenagers. The two turned their heads, and in their eyes blurred by tears, they saw a somewhat familiar face, but for a moment they couldn't remember where they had seen it.
When the other party saw this, he became more and more anxious. He was very strong, and without saying a word, he held the two children in his arms and ran towards the outside of the execution ground:
"My name is Mo Chen, and I had a chance encounter with you two three years ago. Now you leave the city quickly through Taichun Gate. Someone is waiting to meet you under the old ginkgo tree in Huxieping. If you have anything to say, we'll wait until we get there.
!”
These words made Jiang Yan and Qi Ziyin suddenly think of the night of Zhongyuan three years ago, the man holding a pole on the boat and the silver-haired boy telling fortunes in the cabin. They realized that the person who saved them was Yun Zhi's Mo Mo.
They didn't ask any more questions, got on their horses one after another, and drove away.
As soon as the two people came out of the city gate, the bronze bells on the bell and drum towers in Mulu City were rang hastily. The city gates and markets were all closed after hearing the news, and the guards all over the city came out, but no one was found again.
