The thirty dead soldiers were composed of three parties.
Eight of them were wearing coarse linen clothes. Most of them had thick eyebrows, dark skin, and thick waists and big hips.
In addition, the large cloth hanging casually on the shoulders of the eight people was enough to wrap the entire head to block the scorching sun and wind and sand, as well as the crescent moon dagger hanging on the waist, all indicating that these eight people were horse bandits from the north. .
There are nine other people, all wearing black robes, who are all blind in one eye, have a broken hand, and have a broken foot.
The blind eye was covered with a silver eyepatch, a silver hook was installed on the broken part of the palm, and the broken foot was replaced by a silver thorn.
The remaining thirteen people were not dressed in the same style as the first two, but were all ragged, slovenly, and expressionless.
The word "death" could be seen vaguely on the torn and dirty loose-fitting sweatshirts worn by some of them, and several people still had severed thick chains tied to their hands and feet. These thirteen people were presumably death row prisoners.
The dead soldiers from the three parties all had unabashed murderous auras escaping from their bodies, but these murderous auras were not the same.
The murderous aura in the eight horse bandits was similar to that of Kaede and Hongye from the Feather Tribe.
If you want to survive in the north, you must have the courage to move forward, otherwise you will succumb to the cold and wild sand without waiting for a fight with the enemy.
The murderous spirit of the eight horse bandits is a courageous spirit that is not afraid of death.
The nine men in black robes looked malicious from inside to outside.
Fifteen years ago, Zhongzhou, which had just emerged from the war, was in ruins. At that time, many sinister people were looking for opportunities to burn, kill, and loot, regardless of justice. Nine bandits suddenly appeared on the mountain road of Jiufeng Mountain, ten miles outside Chongqing, calling themselves The "Nine-Life Demonic Cat" came and went without a trace. It specialized in robbing merchants and causing trouble. Later, it was punished by Long Yao, who blinded one eye, chopped off a hand, and chopped off a foot with a sword. He never heard of it again. The name of "Nine Lives Demon Cat".
Although these nine people now have a stooped posture, their other physical characteristics are consistent with those of the "Nine Lives Demon Cats" after being punished. If nothing unexpected happens, they are the nine people who disappeared back then.
No one knows how they endured the humiliation of these ten years.
The demon cat is called Nine Lives, but it has nine cripples. It was once regarded as a street rat, and everyone yelled at it. It was once treated as a temporary joke, and everyone laughed at it. Once upon a time, they thought about committing suicide, but failed to do so. Until now, They were still being ordered around humiliatingly, because disobedience would only lead to greater humiliation.
They hated why Long Yao didn't kill them with a single sword back then, they hated why he deliberately sought death but was made worse than death, and they hated anyone with sound limbs, not the slightest bit of disability, and who could live a normal life.
The murderous aura of the nine-life demon cat is the resentment that comes from the deepest part of the heart and has been accumulated for many years.
As for the thirteen death row prisoners, their steps were heavy and their eyes were lifeless.
It was the result of not seeing the light of day for many years and being tortured to the point of physical and mental numbness by various means.
They should have been executed for committing serious crimes long ago, but they were spared their lives due to theft. Of course, they are no different from dead. Their past has been eaten away by all kinds of torture, and now they are just invisible. God’s walking corpse is nothing more than a tool that can be used for sacrifice at any time.
The murderous intent on the thirteen death row prisoners is the murderous intent given to them, but it is also the most stubborn murderous intent among the three parties. Unless the current task is completed, the murderous intent will not be dispersed.
For a while, Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen were unable to make any further inferences. Just before the three parties were about to step into the fence, the two of them jumped out of the wooden house and went straight to the side where the nine people of the "Nine Lives Demon Cat" were.
The hand behind the scenes has not yet appeared, and there is no need for the two of them to confine the battle to the confines of the wooden house and let their last reliance, or the last escape route, be destroyed.
Breaking a siege is the same as fighting the enemy alone. Only by attacking the opponent's biggest weakness can you avoid falling behind.
Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen had no way of knowing how the three parties were "invited", but the fact that the nine-life demon cat lingered for so long meant that these nine people did not regard death as such, but rather cherished their lives.
That kind of resentment and murderous intention that is willing to be a slave, when it encounters a more ruthless and decisive killing intention, you will definitely not choose to confront someone head-on, but retreat to protect yourself.
As long as they step back a foot, Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen can get closer.
As long as one of them dies, the siege force of thirty people will immediately be reduced by one point.
Leng Meiyu stepped lightly and flew in the air. Dozens of silver needles from her sleeves scattered like fireworks, forcing a gap in the encirclement.
As soon as the silver needle fell, Jiang Yichen plunged into the gap like a meteor, his sword energy scattered in all directions, lashing out at Fang Qiu.
During the ten-wheel battle, the two of them had figured out how to fight. They could no longer separate themselves and attack the enemy without any scruples.
But the two of them are not ordinary people. They have worked together to deal with the enemy many times and have developed a certain tacit understanding.
How to avoid mutual influence and how to complement each other does not require many words.
At the gap in the encirclement, there was no one else within a foot to the left and right of the two men in black robes. They separated from the group and stayed on their own.
Jiang Yichen's meteor style arrived first, and pierced the throat of a man in black robe with one sword.
Leng Mei followed closely behind, her target was another man in black robes, the double thorns in her hands flashed past, and she easily sliced open the other man's neck.
Although dead soldiers are not afraid of death, they will make the most instinctive reaction when faced with avoidable crises.
The horse bandit is fearless, the nine-life demon cat is vicious, and the death row prisoner is numb. Naturally, the one who retains the greatest avoidance instinct is the nine-life demon cat.
When the Nine-Life Demon Cat cannot unite with one another and can only fight on its own, none of them will be a match for Leng Mei or Jiang Yichen.
Therefore, as soon as the two of them took action, two lives were lost.
However, the reason why dead soldiers are dead soldiers is that they are not afraid of death and will not shrink back when they are defeated.
Before the two men in black robes fell to the ground, the encirclement quickly shrank from large to small, and another twenty-eight people were already swarming in.
Silver hooks came one after another, and silver thorns came after one after another. The remaining seven nine-life demon cats were closest to Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen, and their moves were naturally the first to arrive.
The two stood back to back, blocking the silver hooks and silver thorns in front of each other.
Before Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen could fight back, eight horse bandits rolled on the ground and bullied them. When they were only half a foot away from the two, a ferocious tiger quickly moved toward the two of them, and some directly moved towards them. They opened their arms to knock down or grab the two of them to restrict their movement, but some of them had already shown the scimitars at their waists to greet the two of them.
This is the most common, most proficient, and quickest trick used by the horse people in the North after they went to the ground.
Because it is fast enough, proficient enough, and commonly used enough, it is the most reliable.
Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen could only fend off those more lethal scimitars and kick away the arms that were wrapped around them. However, their legs and feet were tightly locked by several hands, restricting their movement!
Immediately afterwards, two black shadows accelerated and enlarged under their feet.
A death row prisoner in the air was wielding two mourning axes and was about to chop them down!
The other death row prisoner had nothing in his hands, but he turned his body upside down, using his thick back, shoulders and elbows as a mountain, and pressed down on the two of them like a mountain!
The other death row prisoners were either gearing up or wielding knives and hammers, standing outside. No matter which side Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen broke through, they would be able to block the way out immediately!
The three parties seemed to have nothing to do with each other, and they had not had any chance to fight together before. However, after giving full play to their respective strengths, they achieved a siege situation that complemented each other. It is no wonder that the people behind the scenes would form a group of these three parties.
Nearly thirty dead soldiers were like a stretched out dragnet, leaving Leng Mei and Jiang Yichen with nowhere to go.
