Waves of screams pierced the sky. In the center of the city lord's mansion, the woman's screams were painful and hysterical.
Everyone is very familiar with that kind of sound. When a woman is about to give birth, most of them will not be able to bear the severe pain...
Even Liu Shengsheng is no exception.
The maids in the courtyard were in a hurry, and Wen Po, who had been prepared, had all rushed into the house.
Across a screen, Nan Muze stood expressionless at the other end, listening to the cries coming from the other end, his heart was already in a state of extreme distress.
His hands pinched into the flesh unconsciously, and he didn't even notice the bleeding.
After a period of training, the stable mothers have already cooperated very well. At this moment, they are preparing for the birth in an orderly manner.
Everyone's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
This includes everyone outside the house.
Because in addition to Liu Shengsheng's screams, there were also various sounds of fighting mixed in outside.
"What's going on with these assassins? Didn't they retreat just now? Why are they back again?"
"Their goal is the empress! We must prevent them from approaching that room!"
"Damn it, it turns out that the assassination just now was just a cover-up, there are more people coming this time!"
"..."
There were shouts and shouts outside the door, and it was no longer clear whose voice it was.
Xiao Jiang stood guard at the door with a gloomy expression, "Sir, all the secret guards have been dispatched, and the soldiers outside the house have also crowded the courtyard. Anyone who breaks in will be killed by my subordinates. You can stay safe inside." , in such a situation, there is no need for you to take action!"
As he said this, a dark shadow appeared in front of his eyes.
Although countless soldiers in the courtyard rushed forward in an instant, the black shadow had excellent light skills. He dodged the attacks of the soldiers and rushed straight towards Xiaojiang! .
Before Xiao Jiang could fight back, Yichen suddenly rushed over and kicked the black figure to the ground!
"Master, I'm still here!"
Xiaojiang nodded to him slightly gratefully.
Yichen raised his eyebrows proudly, and just as he was about to say something more, Xiaojiang suddenly rushed over with his sword in hand.
Seeing that the sword was about to hit Yichen, Yichen was so frightened that he quickly hid aside.
As a result, before he could dodge, Xiaojiang's sword had already stabbed him hard from the side of his neck, and finally sank into the belly of a man in black.
Only then did Yichen realize that someone had just wanted to sneak attack him!
Looking at Xiao Jiang who had saved him, he curled his lips unwillingly and said, "It's even."
Xiao Jiang did not speak, but looked coldly at the people fighting in the courtyard.
Yichen also became more and more serious, "The assassins this time are very strange. Some of them have extremely high martial arts skills, and several others are ordinary and have no strength. Who are they?"
Xiao Jiang said coldly: "Wouldn't it be clear if we kill them all?"
After saying that, he rushed into the crowd in a flash!
But this time the killer is obviously not to be underestimated.
Not to mention their martial arts, their number is at least twenty or thirty times greater than before!
The dense mass of men in black were like ants, and they couldn't be killed.
The sky is covered with dark clouds and there is lightning and thunder!
The sounds of fighting, shouting, and the hysterical screams of women were deafening in the heavy rain!
The courtyard was already packed to the brim. Ordinary soldiers were obviously no match for those professionally trained killers. Most of those who encountered those who knew Qinggong could only stand in the courtyard and watch.
As a result, the only main force that fought against the assassins was the secret guards hiding in the dark, as well as Xiao Jiang and Yichen.
But as the number of assassins increased, Yichen was obviously unable to resist them.
"Damn it, these people must have planned to take action today, right? Why does it have to be today!"
After saying this, a dark figure suddenly stepped forward
With one kick, he was kicked off the roof!
Soon enough, Xiaojiang dodged and rushed forward, immediately holding him up and saying, "Be careful!"
Yichen glared angrily at the black shadow on the roof, "If you have the ability, come down here! How can you be a hero with your face covered?"
Xiaojiang said speechlessly: "They won't listen if you tell them this. It's better to save your energy and fight!"
But at the moment of speaking, suddenly, an arrow pierced Xiao Jiang's back!
Xiao Jiang screamed in pain and knelt on one knee on the spot!
Yichen was shocked, "Hey, are you okay?"
Xiao Jiang shook his head, "There are archers, be careful!"
Yichen immediately looked around, and sure enough he saw many men in black holding bows and arrows on the surrounding rooftops.
"These people are indeed well prepared. They are probably waiting for my girl to be at her most vulnerable to attack. They even have archers. How despicable!"
As more and more arrows were shot, many of the soldiers in the courtyard were hit by arrows and fell down. Yichen had to take out his sword and kept blocking the arrows.
He originally wanted to jump on the roof and tear down the black shadow.
But looking at the pale Xiao Jiang, he finally decided to stand beside him and block the arrow for Xiao Jiang.
Xiaojiang looked ugly, "Stop standing here stupidly, stop those people quickly, they are about to break in!"
Yichen gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going over, what about you?"
Xiaojiang clenched his sword tightly, gritted his teeth, stood up from the ground, and said word by word: "Back then, I was sorry for the queen. Now, if I can fight for her, I will fight for the little master who is about to be born. , even after death, I would still be happy with it!"
As he said that, he gave Yichen a hard push, "Hurry up!"
Yichen was pushed by him and immediately rushed over, fighting with the men in black who were about to rush to the door of the house.
He gritted his teeth and his eyes gradually became bloodshot.
Someone wanted to rush in, so he tried his best to knock that person down!
There were two people who wanted to get closer, so he rushed forward and fought with those people!
"Are you kidding me? If I don't protect the girl today, my brother will skin me!"
"If you want to rush through this door, just step through my corpse!"
"..."
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw another arrow stabbing Xiao Jiang's arm.
Yichen clenched his fists, "Don't worry about killing those assassins, just protect your own safety! Protect the safety of your brothers around you!"
In fact, there are many, many more of them than assassins.
But the courtyard is only that big in total, and can only accommodate so many people.
Assassins came from all directions, almost all using light skills to avoid the soldiers on land. Therefore, the only ones who could stop them were some soldiers with higher martial arts skills, including the secret guards hiding in the dark.
But if you count the number of secret guards, compared with the assassins who came to assassinate this time, they are much less...
Coupled with the limited space in the courtyard, most of the soldiers could not squeeze in. Once the killers got rid of the hidden guards, they immediately drew their bows and arrows to clear out the soldiers in the courtyard.
The form is very unfavorable to them!
Until, Du Tingyun's voice suddenly came from outside the hospital.
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you hurry up and deal with those archers!"
