Yao Yao was stunned for a moment.
Going down from that wall is the most dangerous, not to mention the crossbowmen who are all aiming at the top of the wall. As soon as they come up, they will be shot into a sieve. It is not said that they have to pass through the shaky fire net above their heads. A simple thing.
The tip of her nose wrinkled.
In addition to the smell of burning, there is also the smell of paraffin water in the air. Paraffin water plus crossbows are a real military method.
Naturally, the military's methods must be used to deal with them.
She pushed Meng Hui to Han Changmu's side and said firmly: "Master, I leave Meng Hui to you. I will take care of the ambush outside the door."
Han Changmu was about to speak when suddenly there was a loud bang, another burst of exclamations and tragic screams, and a two-story building next door couldn't stand the fire and fell down.
The burning beams, pillars, bricks and tiles hit the back wall of Hu's store.
Several crossbowmen squatting on the back wall were caught off guard, screamed, and were buried in the sea of fire.
Sparks, dust, and thick smoke were scattered everywhere, making people cough. Han Changmu, the others, and the ambushed crossbowmen were not spared.
The scene suddenly became chaotic, and it was a good time to take advantage of the chaos.
Without waiting for Han Changmu's instructions, Yao Yao and others jumped up and rushed in their respective directions.
The crossbowmen usually saw people trying their best to avoid crossbows. Never had they seen such a rampage coming towards them. They were a little panicked, but the crossbows in their hands still did not stop, and rain of arrows fell in the courtyard.
There was no threat on the back wall, but the fire was still burning brightly.
Gu Chen and others formed a team of two with great tacit understanding, and swept to the left and right sides respectively.
Han Changmu held Meng Hui's waist and kept spinning to avoid the crossbow arrows.
Then there was the sound of the blade touching the wall, short and crisp.
Han Changmu looked up and saw Yao Yao like a piece of snow flying against the wind, with several translucent filaments hanging down between his fingers.
She flicked her wrist, and the soft filaments directly hit a burning fire net.
She spun around and slipped through the fire net. Then she straightened the filaments in her hands and bounced away all the fire nets wrapped around her.
Her body is as soft as a drop of water, and can be twisted into any shape. She quickly travels through the fire net without catching any sparks.
The flickering firelight illuminated her face, which was gorgeous and enchanting.
She paused on the wall for a moment, then fell down lightly.
Han Changmu's eyes froze slightly, this movement looked very familiar.
Without thinking much, there was a slight cracking sound above his head.
He hurriedly hugged Meng Hui, took advantage of the brief pause of the crossbow arrows, turned around quickly, and hid in the corner between the front door and the wall. It was the only place where the fire net could not reach, but there were many crossbowmen around. The most unobstructed view.
If Gu Chen and others hadn't restrained the crossbowman and killed him, he wouldn't have dared to stand here.
The fire net was finally overwhelmed and hit the ground heavily. The flames found more outlets to vent, burning along the pillars and the walls to the eaves.
The door and windows were licked by the flames and fell to the ground in an instant.
Han Changmu reached out and touched the front door and the wall. His guess was good. There was no fire at the front door, but there must have been a lot of people ambushing him.
He was a little worried and wondered how sure Yao Yao was.
Yao Yao paused at the top of the wall for a short moment, and then several crossbows were aimed at him.
She sighed and moved softly across the night sky, like a traceless wind blowing through the cold crossbow arrows.
The shadowless thread in his hand became sharp and hard, and when it fell on the crossbow arrow, it made a clear sound like gold and stone colliding.
Dozens of crossbow arrows were all broken at the waist, as if being blown by the wind, grazing her fluttering clothes and deflected to the side, and they were thrown away one after another.
She landed lightly, and before she could turn around to recover, there were several daggers in front of her, slashing at her.
She subconsciously swung the long sword in her hand.
Her sword struck at an angle and soundlessly, and the sword wind was like the shadowless thread on her hand, transparent and invisible but sharp and unstoppable.
Those people let out short screams and flew backwards far away.
Han Changmu was in the courtyard. When he heard the screams outside the courtyard, he could no longer hold his temper. Without waiting for Yao Yao's signal, he kicked open the courtyard door. When he saw Yao Yao flicking his wrist, several shadowless threads were stretched. Straight up, he rolled over the crossbows in the hands of several people squatting on the treetops.
He pulled Meng Hui over without hesitation, protected her with one hand, and rushed into the shadow of the sword.
Gu Chen and others also freed their hands and quickly began to kill the assassins who were ambushing at the entrance of the alley.
Han Changmu and Yao Yao bumped into each other and asked in a low voice: "How are they? Are they hurt?"
Yao Yao raised his eyes and chuckled hastily: "Guess."
The surrounding fire became more intense. Neighbors carried buckets of water to put out the fire. Even the government offices in the city were alerted and dispatched government officials to put out the fire.
In the chaos and noise, the assassins lost the opportunity to kill all Han Changmu and his party. Instead, most of them were killed by this group of people. The remaining few were also lightly and seriously injured and had no strength to fight, so they fled one after another. .
The owner of Hu's store and his wife stood outside the store, looking at the store that was burned to ashes. Finally, they couldn't hold on anymore and sat down on the ground, slapping the ground and crying: "My store, my store." Store, how can I live in the future?"
Han Changmu walked over slowly, handed the shop owner a banknote, and said calmly: "This money is enough for you to buy another shop."
When the shop owner opened it and took a look, he burst into tears: "My dear sir, thank you very much."
Han Changmu was upset because the shop owner was crying, and he said coldly and impatiently: "If you cry again, I will take the money back."
The shop owner shut up immediately, not daring to cry anymore.
Yao Yao supported Meng Hui who was still in shock, looked at this scene, and sighed.
It's great to have money. From today on, she will work hard to become a rich person and shut up whoever she wants to shut up.
Gu Chen and others also retreated, and Meng Suige whispered: "Master, we didn't catch anyone alive."
This was expected. Han Changmu said calmly: "Even if he is caught alive, he will take poison and commit suicide."
The surrounding fires have gradually extinguished, and there are still some sparks, which is nothing to worry about.
This fire destroyed countless houses and killed countless people, all for the purpose of surrounding and killing a few people. It was too cruel and ruthless.
Han Changmu looked at this tragic situation and couldn't help but feel hatred in his heart.
In order to kill him, these people really spent a lot of money. Large areas of houses were reduced to scorched earth, and many human lives were regarded as nothing, and they were not hesitated.
No matter what the cost, he would never let these people go unpunished.
Han Changmu turned to look at the embarrassed and exhausted people, and said calmly: "Let's go, find a place to stay first, and then make plans."
Several people checked their belongings and found that the most important money and road documents were all there, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
Meng Hui hesitated and refused to leave. She looked at the ruined Hu shop and pursed her lips for a long time before turning around with tears on her face.
As soon as I walked a few steps away, someone rushed towards me from the entrance of the alley. I couldn't see his face clearly in the dark night.
He ran very fast and reached the burned-out Hu's shop in one breath. Regardless of the burning residual heat still lingering on the ruins, he stepped on it and threw himself to the ground. While pulling at the rubble, he said in sorrow and pain: "Ah Hui, Ah Hui." Ah, where are you, Ah Hui, wait for me, wait for me, I will rescue you right now."
Han Changmu and others suddenly stopped and turned to look at the man who kept pulling.
Wang Xian recognized the man and whispered sideways: "Master, he is Helian Wenyuan."
Yao Yao looked at Meng Hui, then at the strong back whose shoulders were shaking, feeling a little confused.
Doesn’t this beauty’s eyes look bad? Helian Wenyuan looks a little silly.
Ever since Helian Wenyuan appeared, Meng Hui couldn't help but want to run over, but was caught back by Han Changmu.
Only then did she wake up, she was someone else's now.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at Helian Wenyuan who kept crying, unable to say a word.
He did come, and he did not let her down, but he still missed her.
Han Changmu raised his chin at Yao Yao. Yao Yao understood, walked over quickly, patted Helian Wenyuan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hey, it's too early to cry, Meng Hui is there."
Helian Wenyuan stood up suddenly and looked in the direction of Yao Yao's finger. The haunting figure was under the lamp.
He ran over in three steps and was about to hug Meng Hui, but unexpectedly missed her. When he looked up, he saw Meng Hui being held in the arms of a young man.
He guessed that this was the person who bought Meng Hui, and his heart hurt like a needle. He was filled with anger and could only endure it, and said with a smile: "Master, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Han Changmu smiled and hugged Meng Hui's waist tightly as if to demonstrate: "No need, let's talk here."
Helian Wenyuan took a deep breath and said with a gentle smile: "Master, I wonder if I can sell Meng Hui to me."
"Not for sale." Han Changmu said two words firmly.
Yao Yao held back his laughter and almost gave up.
Helian Wenyuan stood up and nearly punched him.
He took a deep breath again and said with a smile: "Young master, no matter how much you offer, I will never make a counter-offer."
"I don't have the habit of selling my concubines." Han Changmu checked the playboy's attitude, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I only have the habit of giving them away."
Helian Wenyuan staggered angrily, giving it away, might as well resell it.
He forced out a smile, and his attitude could not be more humble: "I don't know how the young master would give Meng Hui away."
"I just bought it and haven't enjoyed it yet. It will probably last ten or eight years." Han Changmu said calmly.
Yao Yao couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.
She waved her hands quickly, showed an apologetic expression, turned around, covered her mouth and laughed silently, her whole body shaking with laughter.
Gu Chen and the others could no longer hold their nerves, and they all held on to a poplar tree that had survived the fire, and laughed silently.
Helian Wenyuan was not in the mood to laugh, so he suppressed the thought of hitting someone and asked calmly: "Young Master, I really like Ah Hui, please help me."
