Hearing Meng Xiuyuan's words, Shang Qingya and Shang Xiuxun, mother and daughter, looked at each other with solemn expressions and found it difficult to say anything for a moment.
It's not that they looked down on Meng Xiuyuan, it was just that as Pegasus Ranch was their business's ancestral business passed down from generation to generation, they couldn't help but be cautious.
The city gate was three feet wider and surrounded by enemies on both sides. It was an impossible task for Meng Xiuyuan to block the advance and retreat of the enemy army alone until the enemy forces in the city were completely annihilated.
As the two owners of Pegasus Ranch, the Shang family and their daughter are also innate martial arts masters themselves. They know best the insignificance of personal power on the battlefield.
Objectively speaking, even if great martial arts masters like Ning Daoqi, Fu Cailin, and Bi Xuan were here today, they still wouldn't trust the life and death of the ranch to them and let them guard this city gate alone.
"Mr. Meng, it's best to consider this matter in the long run and not take too many risks..."
For a long time, Shang Qingya did not want her daughter, who was the owner of the venue, to offend anyone, so she declined to Meng Xiuyuan very tactfully.
However, as soon as she said this, before Meng Xiuyuan could explain anything, Lu Miaozi interrupted her and said with a determined look:
"Qing Ya, Xiu Xun, since Brother Meng proposed this, I think he must be very confident.
Tens of thousands of enemy invaders are outside, and the city is about to be destroyed. There is no time to hesitate anymore.
From my point of view, just do what Brother Meng said."
Lu Miaozi had never interfered with matters at Pegasus Ranch, and now he suddenly supported Meng Xiuyuan so much, which surprised Shang Qingya, Shang Xiuxun, mother and daughter.
But as he said, there is no better way at the moment. Defending the city gate may not be possible, so why not place your bet on Mr. Meng, who is always mysterious and unpredictable, and win a miracle?
"Okay, Mr. Meng, the life and death of our Pegasus Ranch this time depends entirely on you.
I will now gather the troops to shrink back to the inner fort. After the city wall is broken, you will act according to my signal..."
Shang Xiuxun took a deep breath, bowed his hands to Meng Xiuyuan neatly, and then left without saying another word. Her mother, Shang Qingya, was worried, and after saluting Meng Xiuyuan, she hurried after her.
In the room, Meng Xiuyuan and Lu Miaozi were the only ones left in the blink of an eye.
Lu Miaozi suddenly lifted up his sleeves, looked at a terrifying scar on his arm, and then said sternly to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Brother Meng, I know that your physical strength is unparalleled in the world, and no matter how many stupid thieves there are, they can't hurt you.
However, that witch Zhu Yuyan’s methods are mysterious and sinister, and her skills are unfathomable, so you must be extremely careful.”
Meng Xiuyuan didn't say much when he heard this, he just smiled and cupped his hands towards Lu Miaozi, said "Don't worry", and walked away immediately.
…
Meng Xiuyuan left the inner fort and ran straight to the city wall along the rancher's road.
Along the way, many wounded soldiers from the pasture were evacuated from the front. They were all disgraced and scarred. It was obvious that the battle on the city wall was not going well.
Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan did not dare to delay, and immediately stepped up his pace. When he was close to the city wall, he ran into the mountains and hid on the side.
As mentioned before, the reason why Pegasus Ranch is easy to defend and difficult to attack is because of its special terrain. It is surrounded by high mountains and cliffs, and there is only a narrow opening for entry and exit. The outer city wall is built in the narrow opening between the two mountains.
at.
Unfortunately, even relying on such natural dangers cannot bridge the huge gap in combat power between the two sides.
Arrows were missed and rocks were flying down the city wall, killing the soldiers of the four major bandits in a row, but every moment, there were still carriages and ladders climbing up the city wall.
Seeing that the situation was not good, and having just received the order from Shang Xiuxun to shrink into the inner fort, the defenders did not choose to resist. They immediately began to withdraw the city walls in batches and evacuated to the inner fort.
This attitude of going with the flow and retreating while fighting did not arouse the other side's suspicion. On the contrary, seeing that the ranch soldiers on the city wall were gradually unable to resist, the armies of the four major bandits became more and more excited and their offensive became more fierce.
In this way, in less than half an hour, the city wall was completely occupied by the troops of the four major bandits. The city gate was opened wide, the suspension bridge used for the entrance was lowered, and countless enemy troops filed in.
"Hurry up and rush towards me. Don't be immobilized by looking at some junk..."
Caught that beautiful owner, I drank too much soup, everyone will have a chance to have a taste!"
Among the crowd, the first man with a fleshy face and a swollen head yelled hurriedly while galloping on his horse. Judging from his appearance, he must be one of the four bandits mentioned before.
See the tripod.
"Haha, Third Brother Fang really loves soldiers as much as his own son, and he is generous with his actions.
I would be reluctant to share such a beauty...
Kids, we can’t fall behind. Whoever breaks into the inner fortress first, I will give him the beautiful farm owner’s mother and reward him with another thousand taels of silver!”
Next to him, a tall and thin man dressed as a scholar said with a sinister smile. Judging from his appearance, he must be the "Scorched Earth Thousand Miles" hairy one among the four bandits.
When the thieves behind him heard this, they seemed to have seen the treasure and beauty right in front of them. Their morale was greatly boosted, and they followed him howling like ghosts, heading straight for the inner castle of the ranch.
There was a sound of horse hooves, dust and smoke filled the sky, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of enemy invaders poured into the city.
At this time, Meng Xiuyuan was facing the mountains and forests, and suddenly a loud arrow shot into the sky, and a sharp buzzing sound echoed throughout the countryside.
Meng Xiuyuan saw the situation and knew that this should be a spy sent by Shang Xiuxun in advance. He had been observing secretly before. Now that he saw that the leaders of the four major bandits and most of the masters had entered the city, he sent out a signal.
"Something is wrong..."
The four major bandits have been wreaking havoc on the world for many years. They have gone through many wars and have rich experience. At this moment, when they saw the sound of arrows piercing the sky, they immediately realized the problem.
Sure enough, the next moment, the gate of the inner fort opened in the distance, and groups of well-armored and energetic heavy cavalry ran out of it. After rearranging their formations, they rushed straight towards them.
"Damn it, how dare this little bitch...
Do you think the land in this pasture is flat and you can defeat us with cavalry?!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Xiang Batian, one of the four great bandits, saw this scene, he couldn't help but spit and immediately cursed.
"Don't be careless. Our situation is like crossing a river, and our opponent is trying to attack us halfway across the river."
We don't want to suffer her loss and retreat to the city gate.
After more brothers enter the ranch, they will wipe out these cavalry in one fell swoop.
Our advantage lies in the large number of people, not in the quality of our soldiers. It is difficult to defeat these elite heavy cavalry in a head-to-head fight..."
Among the four major bandits, Cao Yinglong, the "Ghost Crying God" who had been silent before, suddenly spoke and gave instructions to his colleagues around him.
Cao Yinglong was the eldest among the four bandits, with the strongest martial arts and the greatest power. Therefore, as soon as he said this, the remaining three people did not dare to disobey him, no matter how anxious they were.
Immediately, these hundreds of people changed from the front group to the rear group, and then retreated towards the city gate. But it was at this time that they discovered that something was wrong with the situation.
"Why are there so few people...Didn't the people behind follow you?!"
Fang Jian Ding glanced at the team behind him and immediately shouted loudly.
"No, look at the city gate, there is someone blocking the people behind.
Fuck her, we fell into a trap!"
The four bandits suddenly understood, and they understood Shang Xiuxun's plan in an instant. The four of them exchanged glances with each other, and without saying a word, they hurriedly accelerated their horses, passed many of their soldiers, and rushed straight to the city gate.
Sure enough, when they got closer, they saw dozens of corpses piled up in front of the gate of the city wall. Many soldiers surrounded a handsome young man in his early twenties, but they only dared to wander about three feet away from him.
Looking past the young man and looking into the city gate passage behind him, he saw the same corpses strewn on the ground and blood flowing in rivers. Even though this handsome young man had his back to the city gate, there was still no one outside the city wall who dared to Come and attack him.
For a moment, the faces of the four major bandits showed expressions of surprise that could not be concealed. None of them expected that just one person could stop their rear army.
"You losers, did you just let this kid block the road alone?!
I usually spend my free money to support you, it’s really better to feed you dogs..."
The fourth among the four bandits, Xiang Ba Tian, looks rough on the outside, but is very insidious. As he turned around and yelled at his subordinates, he suddenly took out a pair of steel rings full of sharp teeth from his arms and used them at a hidden angle. It shot toward Meng Xiuyuan like lightning.
And his subordinates obviously knew the character of his boss very well. While they were yelling at Ba Tian, more than ten good fighters sprang out from the formation and fired at him in coordination with the two deadly tooth rings.
Meng Xiuyuan was not surprised at all by this scene. He immediately stretched out his sword fingers with his right hand, and an invisible air sword more than two feet long burst out from his fingertips.
The next moment, "whoosh" sounds were heard continuously piercing the air, and the bodies of the more than ten masters who were attacking Ba Tian's subordinates were separated and cut off at the waist without even taking a single blow.
The stumps fell to the ground like rain, and the air was filled with blood mist. For a moment, the city gate seemed like Shura purgatory.
"What?!"
Xiang Batian's eyes widened when he saw this, and his face turned red. He never imagined that a dozen of his most powerful acquired masters would be killed in just an instant.
"careful!"
While Xiang Ba Tian was stunned, his elder brother Cao Yinglong suddenly reminded him urgently.
Sure enough, the next moment a cold light shot out from the blood mist, it was the deadly ring that Xiang Ba Tian had just released. However, compared to just now, the speed and momentum of this iron ring had more than doubled.
It was too late to dodge towards Batian, so he had to use all his strength in his hands to catch this flying ring.
The third brother Fang Jian Ding next to him saw this and knew that Xiang Batian would never be able to survive on his own. He quickly pulled out a stainless steel mace from behind and stretched it out with all his strength to help Xiang Batian resist the blow.
But then there was a sharp and sharp "squeak!" sound, and the flying ring only left a white mark on the mace, and then it circled around from below as if it was spiritual, and its speed hardly slowed down at all.
The next moment, blood was seen rising into the sky. The flywheel not only cut off Xiang Batian's hands, but also embedded itself deeply into his face, almost splitting his head in half in the middle.
"Fourth child?!"
Seeing this scene, "Scorched Earth Thousand Miles", the second largest bandit among the four bandits, couldn't help but exclaimed. Although he had no brotherhood with Xiang Batian, he was saddened to see the man with the same name as him die so miserably.
, I couldn’t help but feel extremely frightened in my heart.
At this moment, Fang Jian Ding felt a heat in his hands and slowly opened his palms, only to see that the palm holding the mace was already a lake of flesh and blood.
"This is a tough idea. If we don't work hard today, we will all have to stay here..."
As the leader of the Four Bandits, Cao Yinglong could not help but frown when he saw this scene and whispered to the two people around him.
As if to confirm his words, soon the heavy sound of horse hooves gradually sounded behind the thieves. Without looking, one knew that the heavy cavalry from Pegasus Ranch had already rushed forward.
"Everyone inside and outside the city wall took action together to kill this kid!
If he succeeds, I will reward him with a thousand taels of silver and make him a general!
If you flinch, I will go back and kill his whole family, rape his wife and daughters, and I will not spare any of them!
"
Cao Yinglong knew that this was a critical moment of life and death, so he quickly gathered his energy and roared loudly. Mao Cao and Fang Jianding, who were nearby, heard the sound and immediately agreed, repeating his words loudly.
Hearing this, all the traitors inside and outside the city wall couldn't help but become agitated. They immediately roared angrily and rushed towards Meng Xiuyuan.
Their subordinates knew very well what the three thieves leaders were doing on a daily basis, and no one thought they were joking at this moment.
Meng Xiuyuan was standing at the inner entrance of the city gate. In front of him were hundreds of elite bandits, behind him were the rear troops of the bandits pouring into the city gate passage, and even above his head were the vanguards of the bandits who had climbed onto the city wall earlier.
Suddenly, from five directions, front, back, left, right, and up, there were sounds of breaking through the air at the same time. Swords and spears were like a forest, and arrows were missing like rain, trying to stab Meng Xiuyuan into a hedgehog.
Unexpectedly, Meng Xiuyuan suddenly closed his eyes at this moment, slowly raised his hands to his chest and hugged him in a circle. He did not look at the attacking enemy at all, and only used a move "Rushuo Sihuo" in Tai Chi.
Immediately, Meng Xiuyuan saw a mixture of energy surge around his body, causing the swords, guns and arrows that were attacking him to miss, and all the energy in his fists and feet to be ejected.
There were continuous screams, and in just this moment, more than ten people had broken bones and tendons, and fell to their death.
This move is a fusion of Meng Xiuyuan's "Tai Chi Chuan" and "Xuan Jia Gong", in order to deal with such a situation where he is attacked from both sides. Since it was created half a year ago, this is the first time it has been used against the enemy.
"Damn it, this kid's kung fu is so weird. If we just let these incompetent men attack, so many people will be useless!"
Seeing this scene, Mao Cao couldn't help but shouted in a low voice to the two people beside him.
"I don't believe that his true energy is endless. There are many of us, and we can wear him to death even if we use it up."
Fang Jian Ding's palms were still aching at this moment, so after understanding the meaning of Cao Cao's words, he subconsciously wanted to object in order to avoid direct confrontation with Meng Xiuyuan.
"We don't have time to waste time with him. The heavy cavalry at Pegasus Ranch are not vegetarians.
There is no need to think too much. The three of us attack together. Even if we are defeated, we can force him to reveal a flaw and take the opportunity to escape.
No one should be playing tricks, otherwise I will drag him with me even if I die!"
Cao Yinglong immediately interrupted the restless words and shouted in a low voice.
After hearing what the boss said, the two of them could not refute further, so they could only grit their teeth and nodded.
A moment later, when Meng Xiuyuan was using his Tai Chi energy to frighten away a group of enemies, the three bandits suddenly appeared beside Meng Xiuyuan under the cover of his soldiers.
"Boy, die!"
The three men shouted in unison, and then the weapons in their hands also attacked together. As the strong wind roared, they tacitly sealed off all the space for Meng Xiuyuan to dodge, seemingly forcing him to take the combined blow of the three men.
However, just when Meng Xiuyuan waved his palm to attack, he discovered that all three of them had lost their weapons. At the same time, their bodies turned into three lightning bolts, passing Meng Xiuyuan and running straight out of the city gate.
Obviously, the three of them had thought together and wanted to take advantage of the remaining two people and Meng Xiuyuan to take advantage of the opportunity to escape.
Meng Xiu saw this scene, and although he laughed secretly in his heart, he did not give them any chance. He turned around and channeled his true energy, and struck out with the "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms", the sound was like a dragon's roar, and went straight to the vests of the three of them.
.
And at the moment when Meng Xiuyuan used all his strength to strike, a white silhouette floated quietly from the forest nearby, silently passing through a group of thieves like a ghost, and attacked Meng Xiuyuan from behind.
"Meng Xiuyuan, I actually like you quite a bit, but it's a pity..."
When Dandan let out a delicate sigh, a slender ribbon was already tightly wrapped around Meng Xiuyuan's neck.
