The moonlight is like water, leisurely falling on the roof of the official post office.
In the middle of the night, the street was so quiet that even the buzz of mosquitoes seemed a bit harsh.
However, in this silence, there is a deep crisis hidden.
At this time, Liu Qi was in his room, quietly looking out the window, enjoying the fragrance of tea and the moonlight alone.
He looked calm and composed, as if there was no trouble in the world.
However, the cup of scalding tea was like a piece of ice in his hand, so cold that it penetrated the heart.
The assassin was approaching, but he didn't panic at all, because Bai Qi and others had already laid a dragnet around them.
Just waiting for the group of assassins to appear, Liu Qi wanted to take a look. What are they capable of?
As the night deepened, the tense atmosphere became more intense. The chirping of cicadas revealed a chilling tone, and every sound was like the footsteps of an assassin.
Liu Qi breathed in and out, his fingers unconsciously fidgeting with the teacup in his hand.
Suddenly, the guards outside were heard pulling out the blades in their hands.
Continuous noises. Liu Qi knew clearly that the assassin was finally here!
Holding the tea cup, Liu Qi quietly stood up and gently opened the curtains. Passing through the guards, he slowly walked to the window near the street. With piercing eyes, he looked at the shadows wandering in the night through the cracks in the window.
The corners of Liu Qi's mouth were slightly the same, he picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.
That cup of tea was like an enlightenment, instantly cooling his mood.
Under eyes full of expectation. The fun finally begins!
"Brothers, the prince is here, kill him and avenge my elder brother!"
Luo Cheng gave a low drink, and then rushed towards the official post with his brothers.
But what surprised them was that the guards at the door didn't react at all.
suddenly!
In the dark night, around them, countless bright torches appeared on the roofs and in every window.
Sudden changes. The thieves and bandits who were still full of confidence suddenly woke up!
"No! There's an ambush!"
For a moment, everyone was panicked.
What followed was Qin Wei, Zhao Wenhui and others, coming to fight Luo Cheng and others as if they were falling from the sky!
In the panic, these people still had no fighting spirit at all. They quickly turned around and wanted to break out of the encirclement.
How could the same scene happen again?
How could Wei Qin let them get their wish?
In just a few dozen breaths, he rushed in front of the group of thieves. With a wave of his mace, two thieves who were unable to react immediately fell down.
"Luo Cheng, hurry up, hurry up!"
Everyone gathered around Luo Cheng, with only one thought in their mind: as long as Luo Cheng is still there, there must be hope.
However, this idea is obviously futile.
Soldiers from both sides of the street rushed over like a flood.
"Can't leave!"
Luo Cheng's face turned pale. He couldn't figure out how the prince knew that they would carry out a sneak attack tonight.
But now, it's too late to think about anything.
Such a scene must be about death but not life!
The others saw Luo Cheng's angry expression and said nothing. At this time, the only thing that can be done is to fight to the death.
"Go! There!"
While fighting hard, Luo Cheng was shocked to find that there was an undefended alley.
Several people quickly broke through and fled towards the only way out!
But when Liu Qi looked at their actions, he smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
As the saying goes, "The enemy must be surrounded by a barrier."
Our ancestors said that when besieging the enemy, do not completely encircle it to death.
Because if there is a complete siege, the enemy will see that there is no way to survive, and they will fight like a trapped beast and fight to the death.
And if you leave a way for the enemy to survive, the enemy will only want to escape and will have no fighting spirit.
"Brothers, follow me and fight out!!"
...
People's desire to survive will stimulate unlimited potential.
Even though there were several times more officers and soldiers to resist, Luo Cheng and others still fought their way into the alley.
...
"Brothers, as long as we pass through this alley, we will be safe!"
There were less than thirty people around Luo Cheng at this time.
They were destitute and extremely nervous, but there was a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
The sound of the pursuit behind him gradually faded in his ears, and even the firelight dimmed a lot.
This means that they are one step closer to escaping.
Everyone kept breathing heavily, and they all looked very depressed. Where is the heroic and fearless look from before?
But at this time, who cares about this?
At this time, they only have one thought, and that is to find a way to survive.
“Brothers, hold on a little longer and we’ll be out in no time!
Luo Cheng turned around to encourage everyone.
Regardless of whether it is useful or not, at least it can give some inner comfort to the brother who is already on the verge of collapse.
But, right now!
Several piercing sounds came speeding from around the alley before they could react.
Whoosh! Whoosh! ! !
The rapid sound pierced the air, and then ruthlessly penetrated the first few people who stepped out.
Puff puff!
The sharp arrows penetrated directly into their hearts, and these people fell down and died on the spot without even reacting.
Their eyes were still open until they died. .
Just when everyone was panicking, countless officers and soldiers suddenly appeared from around the alley!
Whoosh! Whoosh! ! !
Sharp arrows kept coming. Although Luo Cheng and others reacted, it was a pity that they had no chance.
In just a few breaths, several more figures fell down!
Including Luo Cheng, there were less than twenty people still standing!
A dozen people stood in the alley, looking at the soldiers waiting for them around them, feeling only despair in their hearts.
Luo Cheng couldn't figure it out. He had obviously observed carefully and there was no one in the alley.
But why does it appear here quietly like a ghost! ?
But no matter what, the final outcome has been decided.
Lost! Completely defeated.
At this time, Luo Cheng held the silver gun tightly and sighed longly.
The person standing behind him had a bloodless face, as pale as a dead person.
They are afraid, it is a sense of fear derived from the bottom of their hearts.
"Put down your weapons! You have no way out!"
Bai Qi's voice echoed in everyone's ears.
Ding ding ding ding!
In an instant, everyone dropped their weapons and knelt down towards the black figure in front of them.
Only Luo Cheng was still standing there holding a spear in his hand.
Suddenly, hearing the footsteps behind him, Luo Cheng looked nervous, and immediately turned around with a spear in hand.
As the figure approached, Luo Cheng's breathing began to become rapid.
Finally saw it.
It's the prince!
The two were no more than five steps apart.
Eye to eye!
The anger in my heart suddenly rose, but what can I do?
Luo Cheng could even imagine that as long as he raised his spear, he would be immediately shot to death by soldiers around him with thousands of arrows.
"I won."
Just three words, but extremely harsh.
Luo Cheng had a complex look on his pale face.
He was unwilling to admit it, but it was the truth.
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit!"
"I, Luo Cheng, have nothing to say. If you want to kill or cut into pieces, it's up to you."
But after closing his eyes for a moment, Luo Cheng didn't expect anything. After slowly opening them, he looked at the prince in front of him with doubts.
"You won't kill me?"
