The two soldiers who came to deliver the message saw that their general and the young man were beginning to discuss. They also remembered what they had told the general earlier. When they were about to step forward to report again, they suddenly felt some noise behind them. They were curious. He quickly looked back.
There are no pedestrians on Yanbei Street, only the rising moon is shining. Although the moonlight is bright tonight, it is full of weirdness. Looking back for a moment, I don't find anything unusual, but the chill is lingering in my heart. Don't go.
"What's going on! There's no reason to be cold..." The messenger soldier frowned and murmured to himself. Since he didn't find anything unusual, he turned around, tightened his armor, and looked towards the people who were still talking not far away. The general and the young man went on a trip...
It was not only this soldier who also felt the chill, but Shan Bin's knife and axemen who were ambushing outside the Yunlai Inn. The leading captain tightened his cotton clothes tightly, and looked back at the knife and axemen under his command, his eyes filled with tears. Bloodshot, remembering that tomorrow was the day to take action, he immediately gave the order softly.
"Tomorrow is the time to take action. I will keep an eye on you tonight and keep your spirits up. I will prick up my ears tomorrow. As soon as we hear the signal, we will rush into the inn."
After hearing the order, everyone retreated and went to have a rest. Only one young swordsman and axe-sitter looked hesitant. When there was no one else in the house, he quietly walked to the captain's side and confessed his feelings to the elder captain.
"Sir, but...those are the generals of our Yanbei camp, do we really want to..." Before he could finish his words, he was so frightened by the sharp look in the captain's eyes that he forced himself to swallow the rest of the sentence.
Seeing that the young junior student was scared away by him, the school captain looked out the window with alert eyes and looked out into the alley. Nothing was out of the ordinary. He then retracted his gaze and turned to the young junior student. He raised his hand to signal him to come closer and said, "Boy, we are in the army. Listening to military orders and acting on them is what we should do. As for whether those generals should die or not, that is not our consideration, understand?"
Hearing the captain's advice, the young swordsman seemed to understand but was still unwilling to give up: "Sir, I am also from Yanbei. If these generals hadn't guarded the border for us in Yanbei these years, I am afraid that the people of Yanbei would have died long ago. Under the iron cavalry of the Northern Jin Dynasty, we should also consider good and evil in our actions, right? If not, I would not join the army..."
"That's enough!" the captain shouted softly to stop the young swordsman and continued to speak, not because he was angry at him for not obeying the military orders, but because the school captain had the same doubts in his heart as the young swordsman said, and he was afraid that he would let the sword go again. The axe-man continued to speak, and his heart would be shaken, so he stopped speaking. Just when he was about to persuade the young axe-man with the words "obey military orders" and to convince himself, he heard a loud sound from hiding in the small courtyard. The slight sound of clothes.
"Swish-swish-swish-"
Although the voice was soft, it was clearly heard in the quiet night. The captain immediately shut up and said no more. He turned to look at the young swordsman and saw the same vigilance in his eyes. He hurriedly waved his hand and the two of them lowered themselves. He slowly approached the window, stood up slowly, and looked through the window lattice into the small courtyard.
Looking around for a moment, an old man and a young man opened their eyes at the same time. In the small courtyard, at some point, several figures in black had stood up, all with black cloth covering their faces. Regardless of the bright weapons in their hands or these black The man in clothes was only exposed, and his eyes filled with cold murderous intent made people shudder.
Among the people in black clothes, when they stood still for a moment, they raised their palms slightly. The people in black clothes immediately understood, clutched the steel knives in their hands, and walked quietly towards the room in the courtyard where snoring was loudly...
"They want to..." Seeing this, the young swordsman instantly understood what these people were thinking, and he was about to call out, but the moment he opened his mouth, the captain covered his mouth.
The swordsman and axehand were still young, so there were no clues, but the captain had been in the army for many years. Just from the steps of these people, he could tell that these people were all from the training family, from the courtyard to the door. There was still snow in front of them, but these men in black walked without hearing any movement, which showed that their martial arts were far superior to that of themselves and the swordsmen and axemen under their command.
Before the two of them could wait and see, they heard the doors of each room in the courtyard being gently pushed open. Just for a moment, the figure of the man in black had already entered the room like a ghost, and then all the rooms in the courtyard were opened. There was a muffled sound of drinking....
Hearing this sound, he looked at the young swordsman's slightly immature face and thought for a moment. The captain had already thought about it in his mind. He put his arm around the young swordsman's shoulders, leaned close to his ear, and tried his best to lower his voice.
"From old age
Turn out the window behind you, walk quickly along the way, don't look back if you hear any noise, go and report to the general, just say that things have changed, remember this! "
"What should I do, sir?" He felt the hand covering his mouth loosen a little, but the young swordsman didn't want to leave, so he hurriedly asked, but even with this slightly higher tone, the black-clothed leader standing in the courtyard was stunned. The person turned his head slightly and looked towards the front hall of the small courtyard.
Seeing that the leading man in black had changed his pace, holding the steel knife, and slowly approaching the front hall, the captain's eyes became anxious, and he pushed the young swordsman to the window, shouted in a low voice, and said the word "go" , has stood up and held the knife, standing by the door, pressing down with one palm, holding the knife horizontally to cover his face.
When the swordsman and axe-hand saw this move, they knew that it was a move that would kill everyone in the army. He immediately understood the captain's determination, and his eyes turned red instantly. He wanted to speak, but was glanced back by the captain who looked back slightly, and swallowed his words. .
The silent farewell, anger and unwillingness turned into determination in the end. The young swordsman no longer hesitated, opened the window gently, turned over into the alley, and walked out, only to be able to do it. He only heard the sound of breaking the door in the house behind him. ...
——
"Brother Mu, are you really sure that Lu Jin is from Jin?" Yu Lie was in confusion at this moment and looked at the young man.
Gu Xiao nodded and said: "Other than that, there is no better explanation."
While the two were discussing, they saw the messenger approaching them. He seemed to have something important and wanted to report it to them. Yu Lie frowned slightly and was about to ask a question, but heard the young man beside him speak eagerly.
"careful!"
Almost subconsciously, Yu Lie turned sideways to dodge. Just for a moment, Yu Lie lowered his head and heard the sound of piercing the air. Several rays of cold light passed by his face. Before he had time to draw his sword to resist, he heard the sound of piercing the air again...
"Ding ding ding——" In a moment of despair, he saw the green shirt flashing, leaping in front of him, waving the long sword in his hand, like the moonlight turning, cutting off all the incoming cold rays, making a crisp sound.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Lie hurriedly looked for the figures of his soldiers, but what he saw were the corpses that had been killed by several cold rays of light.
When the general saw this scene, the sharp weapon was close, and then several figures in black appeared on the street. These people seemed to blend into the night. They appeared for a moment without making any sound, and their eyes were exposed. , looked at himself and Brother Mu coldly, as if looking at two corpses.
Even if Yu Lie is an upright general, he has no choice but to believe the fact that Shan Bin wants to rebel at this moment. He also knows why the black-clothed killers in front of him are here. He looks at the man holding a sword in front of him to protect him. The young man's back, before he could speak, he heard the sound of a hidden weapon piercing the air again behind him.
Standing up and drawing his sword, Yu Lie used military formation sword skills to protect his back, and swung down the hidden weapons shot from behind. He stood with his back to the young man and looked coldly at the black-clothed killer approaching quickly on the empty street. Shen Sheng spoke to the young man behind him.
"Brother Mu, there may be a fierce battle today!"
Gu Xiao didn't care about these killers, but what he was worried about was the Yunlai Inn and the city gate defenders. These killers dared to attack in the street. It seemed that the city defenders were just returning to their camp gates just as the soldiers under his command had said. , in this way, these killers can do whatever they want...
"North Gate!" Gu Xiao suddenly remembered the crucial place and said to Yu Lie behind him.
When the young man said something, Yu Lie reacted instantly. The soldiers in the city returned to their camps. The city gate defenders were already isolated and helpless. If a killer attacked the city gate defenders at this moment, it would be difficult to resist them. Once the city gate fell into the hands of them, When the Jin army's iron cavalry arrives at Yanbei City...
Yu Lie panicked and wanted to ask Yu Juvenile about his plan, but the black-clothed killer approaching the two of them didn't give them time to discuss. Seeing that the hidden weapon was useless, he drew his knife and killed him.
More than a dozen killers in black rushed towards them. The two people who had no time to speak were separated by the steel knives that came from them. Gu Xiao quickly jumped away. The two steel knives did not give the young man a chance to stand still and breathe. They followed him like a shadow. Opposite door.
The young man resisted with his horizontal sword, and struck out with a single palm, hitting the chests of the two killers. The two men groaned, flew out, and fell to the ground.
Hearing the movement behind them, the dozen or so killers who were surrounding Yu Lie looked back. The one they were ordered to attack and kill was the general in armor, but they didn't expect that the young man next to the general was so troublesome.
It's better if you don't look at it.
At first glance, the leader finally remembered the feeling of déjà vu in this young man. Where did he come from? Outside Tongguxuan, he was ordered to ambush the young man. Wasn't it the young man he was waiting for? It was precisely because of this. It was only a young man who ruined Tonggu Xuan, which had been in business for many years.
The enemy was extremely jealous when they met. The incident at Tongguxuan allowed the young man to escape. Unexpectedly, in just one night, he saw the young man again. The young master wanted the young man's life. When they met, the leading killer seemed to have seen what he could easily get. Thanks for the credit, I couldn't help but smile coldly, and the whistle sounded...
Although Yu Lie is a strong general in the army, if he has to fight against these dead soldiers and killers, he may be able to resist it one on one, but it is difficult to resist when surrounded by a few people. Fortunately, he has armor to protect him, and he is only hit by several knives. The chop struck on the armor, only injuring a little bit of skin and flesh, but not life-threatening. When he was about to be unable to resist, he heard a whistle from the leader of the dead soldiers, and the dead soldiers who surrounded and attacked him immediately retreated away...
With his mind relaxed a little and holding his sword to catch his breath, Yu Lie raised his eyes and saw a group of dead soldiers surrounding Mu Xiaoxiong...
Gu Xiao originally wanted to help Yu Lie, but after hearing a whistle, a group of dead soldiers stopped chasing Yu Lie and rushed back to surround him. He was secretly glad in his heart. If he wanted to break tonight's situation, he would finally have to mobilize. A military commander, otherwise even if he has three heads and six arms, it would be difficult to take care of the Yunlai Inn and the city gate at the same time.
The young man did not run away, but just stood there and waited quietly. Seeing that the siege was coming, the leading soldier sneered and said, "Boy, you were lucky to escape with your life last night, but you are not so lucky tonight."
The leader of the dead soldiers was confident, as if he had seen Po Tian's achievements waving to him, but when he heard the young man speak, he stood blankly on the spot.
"Brother Yu, just go to the south gate and tell General Sun what you and I know just now. Maybe he can help you... I will take care of it here."
Yu Lie also didn't expect that the young man actually knew that the guard of the south gate had been replaced by General Sun Pian. He felt a chill in his heart and became suspicious of Mu Yi's identity again. But now was not the time to care about these things. There were no Yanbei soldiers in the city. He thought To save the Yanbei generals in Yunlai Inn, we may have to rely on the soldiers guarding the city under General Sun Pian.
After making up his mind and covering the wound, Yu Lie did not hesitate. He followed the young man's words and just looked to Nancheng.
Discussing the countermeasures openly and openly in front of themselves, the dead soldiers looked at each other. I don't know whether the young man's head was damaged or he was simply ignoring everyone. His eyes moved slightly. The two people beside him had already understood and chased after Yu Lie who turned around. .
The leading dead soldier glanced at the injured general who was about to be overtaken by two of his men after just a few steps. He sneered. Just when he was about to taunt the young man, he heard the sound of clothes and sleeves and looked back. The young man who was surrounded by everyone was nowhere to be seen.
In panic, he hurriedly raised his hand to look for it, and saw that under the moon in the middle of the night, the green shirt blended in with the night, and the long sword in his hand was as bright as the bright moon in the night...
"Be careful!" In shock, the death warrior Tou Lin exclaimed, but unexpectedly, the moon-like sword light was faster than his voice. The moment he spoke, it had already fallen from the night.
The gushing blood was not conspicuous under the moonlight, but the bright red color of the moonlight sword in the young man's hand was particularly dazzling.
"No wonder he would tell his heart so openly..."
The leader of the dead soldiers instantly understood that the young man was not worried because he had already regarded them as dead people. Without any hesitation, the order was given immediately.
"withdraw."
The dead soldiers also saw the young man knocking down two people with one sword, and they were already afraid in their hearts. After hearing the order, they hurriedly retreated along the way. However, when they turned around for a moment, they saw the long sword in green shirt had appeared. forward.
The blue shirt is like a night sword like the moon, and the eyes are fixed with cold stars, and the murderous intent is fierce.
"Don't leave in a hurry. Maybe the answer satisfies me and I can spare your lives!" The young man dropped the red stain remaining on his sword and blocked the road with his sword, showing a dimple on his lips as he smiled.
