Chapter 48 Shadow of the Profound Palace

Zhang Yu quickly put on his hat and walked out of the tent with Xia Jian. He saw someone outside Li Xu walking towards them quickly. There were about a hundred people in total. The team was spread out and covered all directions.

, it looked like it was going to surround them.

With his extraordinary eyesight, he could clearly see the appearance of the visitor even at night.

Many of these people wore clothes decorated with feathers and rattan, and their faces were painted with oil paint. However, they held hammers, spears, swords and other metal weapons in their hands, and carried bows and arrows on their backs. A few people even wore ancient

Shijia, whose footsteps are extremely heavy, is probably the so-called pagan cultist.

Unexpectedly, before they could find him, the other party had already taken the initiative to come to the door.

But how did the other party find this place exactly?

His mind changed. It was very possible that there were some spies among the militiamen during the day and saw them coming downstream.

The Wen brothers also heard the noise outside at this time, came out of the tent, and also saw this group of people.

But at this time, they discovered that Cai Yong was not there.

However, they couldn't care about that at this time, and it was more serious to deal with the enemy in front of them. Since they didn't know the details of the other party, a rash attack might be detrimental to their own side. The two exchanged opinions with Zhang Yu in a few words, and decided to stick to one direction each.

The other side is given to the eight assistants.

The assistants could be seen to be well-trained, they were all lying down with their clothes on, and their reactions were very fast. When there was a noise, they came out of the tent one by one. At this moment, after receiving the order, they immediately took out the weapons they carried. Three of them

Holding shields at the front, four people stood at the back holding firecrackers, and one person stood at the back holding a bow and arrow, waiting with bated breath.

Zhang Yuze came to the position to the south. It could be seen that there were the fewest people coming this way, only twelve people. This group of people should have come from the north. Maybe they had the intention of catching them all, so this group of people

They probably planned to go around and block their escape route.

But the other party probably didn't expect that they would notice Fang as soon as he got close. This meant that the other party at least knew their number, but they didn't have an accurate estimate of their combat effectiveness.

After these people discovered the movement inside the station, they knew that they had been exposed. They were also brave and immediately launched an attack. Five or six people opened their bows and arrows and shot towards the station.

Zhang Yujian did not take out the sheath, but waved his arm gently to push it away. However, he soon saw some of them lifting something in their hands, and immediately moved to the side.

Several flames flashed on the opposite side, followed by the sound of firecrackers. A large piece of the antlers on one side was shattered, and countless fragments flew out.

He casually slapped away the fragments. At this time, he also heard the sound of firecrackers coming from several other places. Apparently, he also encountered the same situation.

The assistants were facing north, and there were forty or fifty people rushing towards them in an aggressive manner. Their shields were also hit by a few blunderbuss, but this thing was obviously made by the Xuanfu secretly, and the fire blunderbuss was not even hit.

It was able to penetrate it, but the two assistants holding shields seemed to have been hit from the front, vomiting blood and half paralyzed on the ground.

However, the four gun-wielding assistants at the back seized this opportunity and fired a round of fire guns, knocking down several people on the opposite side immediately. Then they immediately abandoned the guns and took bows, and shot them flatly one after another. In just a few breaths, they were knocked down.

More than a dozen people.

The person standing at the end of the assistants suddenly shot an arrow, hitting a leader-looking man in the face. The man raised his head and fell backwards.

As soon as this person died, the group of people was stunned for a moment, and their pace slowed down, as if they were at a loss. Some people ran away in a hurry. This action immediately attracted everyone to follow, but they were immediately followed by bows and arrows.

They were constantly shot down on the road, and most of them died in the blink of an eye.

There were the largest number of people attacking here, but it was actually the weakest place in terms of combat effectiveness. It was defeated almost as soon as it came up.

The people attacking the two sides of the Wen brothers were very fierce. First they fired a row of firecrackers from close by, and then they fired a wave of spears and axes, and then they rushed forward with howls.

But not long after the rush, most people started to stumble.

The assistants filled the entrance and exit with stones and dug some shallow pits on the way downhill, which made them appear rugged and uneven, which affected their momentum and naturally made them slower.

The Wen brothers, however, were not in a hurry. They each grabbed a few rocks in their hands and squeezed them easily, turning them into a handful of gravel. Then they leaned back slightly and poured down with all their strength. The extremely powerful force was no less than

With the muskets fired, amidst the crackling sounds and screams, a large number of the two-faced attackers suddenly fell down.

On Zhang Yu's side, he found that although the people opposite him were the smallest in number, they were the most calm. They did not rush forward, but kept shooting from a distance with firecrackers and bows and arrows.

His mind changed. Now that he didn't have the protection of his heart light, he still couldn't block the attacks of the fire guns. Although it was not easy for the opponent to hit him, standing here and getting beaten was definitely not a good choice.

It seems that the only option is to take the initiative.

He also knew that if the other party dared to block the retreat, he must have some skills, and from the beginning to now, this group of people had been extremely calm, so he also paid 100% caution, "Minsi", "Zha"

The three seals of "Sound" and "Strong Life" were activated at the same time, and at the same time, with a force of his feet, he rushed down from the high slope!

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

Several bows and arrows fell from the sky, but they only landed where he originally stood.

The opponent obviously didn't expect that he would choose to rush down alone. Several people picked up the firecrackers again, but found that he was moving extremely fast and couldn't aim at all, so they simply threw them on the ground and pulled them out one after another.

He took out the short sword beside him and stepped forward to meet him.

Zhang Yu had already rushed forward at this moment. As the others arrived, a dazzling sword light also slashed into the enemy. Broken limbs and broken bodies flew in an instant, and several short pitiful groans were heard at the same time.

Almost in the blink of an eye, four of the twelve people fell.

Three-thirds of his men were lost in a single encounter. Ordinary people would have lost their fighting spirit on the spot. However, these people were not frightened by this. Instead, they quickly moved outward and spread out, vaguely surrounding Zhang Yu.

When one of them rolled out to avoid the sword light, he picked up the firecracker on the ground and spit out a strange syllable at him while standing up.

Zhang Yu suddenly felt a force that seemed to be entering his mind. He knew that this must be the other party trying to influence his mind, but under the protection of "Zha Sheng", he was not shaken in the slightest, and he took a step forward.

, the sharp sword light flashed past, and immediately rushed to the next target, and the man holding the gun froze for a moment. In a moment, a blood line appeared on his body, and half of his body slid down with the cut open gun.

Come down.

Under the darkness of night, the sword light was like lightning, flashing and dancing continuously.

Zhang Yu's big sleeves fluttered and he killed one person with one sword. In just a few breaths, all the enemies here were killed, and he was the only one standing in the field holding the sword.

He vibrated the blade and looked up again. The battle there was almost coming to an end. The enemies on three sides had been beaten to pieces. But the strange thing was that most of the pagan cultists who retreated did not flee towards the way they came.

Instead, they withdrew to the east side of the river with no retreat, and organized themselves on the river beach. However, they did not look like they were going to continue fighting with them, but looked back frequently, as if they were waiting for something.

He realized that maybe things were not over yet, and there might be enemies that had not yet arrived.

At this moment, several auras suddenly appeared in his inner lake. These auras were extremely chaotic and twisted into a ball. They did not look like a person at all, or in other words, they had broken away from the category of a human being.

A burst of water mist rose from the river. I don't know when five people appeared and walked over step by step from the water. But what was surprising was that these people were all wearing Xuanfu Taoist robes, and they stood out against the surrounding mist.

Underneath, I walked leisurely, as if I were a fairy.

After hearing this, the Wende brothers did not think that the other party was one of their own just because he was wearing Xuanfu robes. However, they also realized that the person coming was not an ordinary person, so they immediately ordered the assistants to clean up and prepare to meet the enemy.

The assistant with the bow estimated the distance between the two sides, and seemed to want to try an arrow to test it, but before he could take action, a voice came from behind, "Don't do it!"

Everyone turned around, and Cai Gong appeared behind them at some unknown time.

Wen De said happily: "Uncle Cai, are you back? Where have you been?"

Zhang Yu looked at the person and said nothing.

Cai Yong did not answer. He came to the front of the crowd with a solemn expression and looked in the direction of the river.

After hearing it, he asked: "Uncle Master, who is that person opposite? Why does he feel a bit like a fellow Taoist from our Xuanfu?"

There was something inexplicable in Cai Yu's eyes. He sighed heavily and said in a heavy voice: "They... you can think of them as people from another Xuanfu."
