After nightfall, members of the Qinglong Gang who sneaked into the inner city during the day and stayed in inns and restaurants took advantage of the darkness to quietly take to the streets.
Working in groups of three, they skillfully used shadows, alleys, stalls and other buildings to avoid city defense patrols and ran toward Guangping Street, Xiaguang Street, and Chengle Street.
Approaching this area where dignitaries gathered, the patrols of the city defense army intensified.
However, the members of the Qinglong Gang learned about the patrol rules of the city defense army from the gang leader, cleverly avoiding them and looking for their targets.
Wang Beiwang was in one of the teams, and he was the team leader. He led two young and strong men from the Qinglong Gang, each of whom was carrying a heavy package.
Soon, Wang Beiwang led the two brothers to the house of the Minister of Punishment.
The three of them skillfully climbed over the high wall and fell into the courtyard. They also skillfully stayed behind the flower garden to avoid the inspection of the palace guards.
"Let's set fire to the outer courtyard. There will be experts in the inner courtyard and they will be easily discovered." Wang Beiwang took out three and a half finger-thick bamboo tubes from his arms and gave them to his teammates.
The bamboo tube is filled with red fire sand, which was grown in the cellar of Duan Mansion at the training ground of Gang Leader Duan.
The sand and soil in the cellar have absorbed the power of the fire spirit over the years and evolved into red and crystal fire sand. Once this kind of thing is ignited, it can continue to burn for several hours and cannot be extinguished by water.
The three of them took advantage of the darkness to pour red fire sand on window frames, thresholds, pillars and other places that were prone to catching fire.
Then, each took out the fire sticks and lit the red fire sand.
The flames instantly burst into dazzling sparks, melting the window frames, thresholds, and pillars red, and then burned fiercely.
The three of them then went to the next building. Soon, blazing fire came out of the Yun Mansion, reflecting the red night sky, and they fled in panic.
The sound of "water running" is endless.
Wang Beiwang did not leave immediately. He took advantage of the chaos with his two brothers to kill several family members and men, and escaped from the Yun Mansion over the wall while being chased by the guards.
They cannot be regarded as charlatans who are willing to take revenge. They have always been decisive in killing. The families of corrupt officials are also sucking up the people's fat, and no one is innocent.
After they all escaped from the Yun Mansion, the three of them carried their packages and ran quickly towards the Zheng Mansion along the shadows on the street.
They had a common mission tonight, to create chaos. However, during the mission, they were located in the female building on the city wall. A dozen defenders gathered around the table, shaking the dice, their faces both tired and excited.
The defenders outside were hunched in the cold night wind, yawning tiredly, wanting to sleep, and waiting to go into the enemy tower to gamble after the shift was over.
"The weather is getting colder and colder, and the wind is like a knife." A defender lowered his head and looked down at the refugees in the city, tut-tutting: "I don't know if these refugees can survive the winter. If your majesty can continue to provide porridge and disaster relief, it will be better." Okay, now the porridge is all thin."
The companions around him spat, "No matter what happens to these pigs, we ourselves are in danger. If Linxia falls, we have to face the Northern Dynasty army directly. While there are still a few days of peace, let's play more and sleep more." Women are the way to go.”
Just as he was talking, the roar of refugees suddenly came from under the city wall: "The Northern Dynasty army is coming, the Northern Dynasty army is coming!"
Immediately, a large fire appeared in the darkness in the distance and rushed towards the city gate.
One of the defenders at the top of the city was so excited that he lost all sleepiness and shouted: "The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking."
After a while, the heavy sound echoed in the night.
In the inner city, in a small restaurant a few hundred meters away from the Zheng Mansion, Zheng Wenshi, wearing armor, stood at the window and vaguely heard the sound of drums and horns coming from the outer city.
He turned a blind eye when he saw the flames igniting in many places on Guangping Street, Xiaguang Street, and Chengle Street, and stared intently at the Zheng Mansion in the distance in the night.
The sound of footsteps came quickly. The adjutant pushed open the door of the private room and came to Zheng Wenshi's side and whispered: "There is an urgent report from the outer city that the Northern Dynasty army is attacking."
Zheng Wenshi said calmly: "The soldiers and horses of the other two battalions have passed?"
The adjutant led the way. .
Zheng Wenshi's tone was cold: "Inform our people to stand still and wait for my order."
The adjutant hesitated to speak, and instead of mentioning it again said: "The inner city is on fire, why do we still wait and see?"
Zheng Wenshi said coldly: "You only need to obey orders instead of questioning your superiors."
The adjutant retreated silently.
Zheng Wenshi looked at the calm Zheng Mansion and snorted coldly: "It's a small trick."
If the inner city is set on fire, the patrolling city defense troops will inevitably be lured over. If the "enemy army?" approaches the city, the capital's defense forces will also be mobilized urgently to prepare for the battle.
These are all conspiracies made by the foolish king.
But what about this ring?
As long as his elite troops stand still, no matter how many conspiracies and schemes come out one after another, there is no way to lure him away.
A crimson fireball, dragging a bright tail flame, fell towards Zheng Mansion.
The fireball exploded over the Zheng Mansion and illuminated the entire mansion. In the expanding firelight, Duan Bangsheng appeared with dark red hair and a green robe.
He looked down with tiger eyes, opened his arms without hesitation, and condensed a ball of high-temperature fire with red flames and bright white flames. Thirty-six balls fell towards the backyard of the Zheng Mansion, directly burning the Zheng Mansion.
In the east room of the backyard of Zheng Mansion, an invisible ghost in white came out of the house and blew softly.
"Wing" The dark wind suddenly blew up, blowing into the sky. The whole Zheng Mansion seemed to be trapped in the middle of winter. The eaves were covered with white frost. The red fireball quickly lost its heat when blown by the dark wind. Some of them were extinguished, and some were dim and dim. They fell into the eaves, courtyards, The flower garden failed to cause the expected explosion.
The evil spirit that couldn't be seen, but caused drastic changes in the climate as soon as it appeared, suddenly opened its arms.
Suddenly, the Yin Qi billowed in the backyard of the Zheng Mansion, rolling up the cold and withered rubble and gathering towards the resentful spirit. The Resentful Spirit held up his small hand, wrapped up the Yin Qi of many debris, and pushed towards the Vulcan in the air. The majestic Yin Qi Like the ocean tide, rising against the sky.
Duan Bang's main body hit the flames and burst into flames, his hair turned into flames, and the flames converged on his fist.
With his punch: a red fire carrying high temperature hit the ocean tide of Yin Qi.
If two forces, one cold and one hot, collide, they will form an exaggerated tornado, which will blow up the dust and dead branches in the courtyard and lift the tiles on the roof into the air.
In the strong wind, the door of the east room opened wide, and Zheng Wenhan, dressed in brocade clothes, stepped out, his beard flying in the wind. He stared at Gang Leader Duan in mid-air, and said lightly: "Duan Huoshen of Su Wen Qinglong Gang, is a great name in the world. Ding Ding, a heroic hero, did not expect that the thieves changed their temperament and used force to invade the forbidden country. Tonight, I will be the common people of the Southern Dynasty, except for you, who is a scourge."
Seeing the target figure appear, Gang Leader Duan's eyes were blazing with fire, turning into a red stream of light and swooping down to take the enemy's head.
Suddenly, the master-level resentful spirit on the roof appeared behind Gang Leader Duan and gently pressed against his back. The momentum of completing the possession and diving was immediately interrupted.
Under the eaves, Zheng Wenhan stood still, stroking his beard and smiling confidently.
"Gang Leader Duan, although you are one of the top speed masters in the world, you are far behind the National Master. The two 'slaves' of the National Master are enough to make you your mortal enemy." "
As the words fell, the roof of the east room was shattered, revealing a figure in black shorts with a pale complexion and green eyes.
He was filled with Yin Qi that was not inferior to that of a spiritual servant, but it was tangible and qualitative, and could be seen by mortal eyes.
This is a master-level Inferi that breaks through the back of the house. Wearing a black short-striking suit, the Inferi is like a black lightning. It instantly kills in front of Gang Leader Duan, preparing to kill this strong man who is possessed by the spirit servant.
Spirit servants and Inferi work well together and can easily kill practitioners of the same level, as long as the other party does not have the means to restrain themselves.
But at this moment, golden flames burst out from the gang leader's chest, and the flames spread quickly, covering his whole body and the spiritual servant behind him.
The spirit servant's body was ignited with golden flames, and he let out a shrill scream that could not be heard by mortals.
It tried its best to stimulate the Yin Qi in an attempt to extinguish the golden flame, but the golden flame seemed to specifically restrain the Yin Qi and continued to burn steadily.
Duan Huoshen's face was also distorted. The Jinwu family was extremely domineering. They did not distinguish between friend and foe, burning their enemies and themselves.
Before taking action, Hunjun gave him a talisman - the Yang Fire Talisman.
The talisman contains the Golden Crow's extinguishing resentful spirits and Yin corpses, but Hunjun said that there is only one Yanghuo talisman.
Duan Huoshen can only use it once to burn out the resentful spirits, because he lacks the means to deal with the resentful spirits. On the other hand, the Inferi, no matter how powerful they are, are still physical and qualitative enemies. Melee killing has always been the strength of the fire master.
The next second, red flames
The water spurted out and swallowed up the Inferi.
"Bang!" Headache
The Yin Corpse bathed in flames flew forward and hit Duan Huoshen's chest. The latter turned into a golden stream of fire and flew out of the Zheng Mansion and crashed into a large mansion in the distance.
The Inferi immediately chased and killed. The brief battle awakened the servants of the Zheng Mansion, from the wife and young lady to the maids, housekeepers and nannies. They all woke up one after another and rushed out to check the situation.
At this time, a misty, melodious, soft and melodious song echoed in the night sky, like a mother's whisper, making people feel extremely peaceful and drowsy.
Plop, plop, the four people who had just rushed out of the room fell down one after another and fell into a deep sleep.
Two beauties in colorful clothes used Qinggong to leap between the roof ridges and arrived at the backyard of the Zheng Mansion.
Hypnotizing ordinary people was to prevent Zheng Wenhan from hiding in the chaotic crowd and escaping, and also to clear the place.
Get rid of those soldiers who are not qualified to participate in this battle but are in the way.
Just when Zheng Wenhan was attracted by the two women on the roof, a cold dagger appeared behind him, and the woman holding the dagger appeared.
Wearing a black and white Taoist robe, his face is round and somewhat sweet.
Ding!
The dagger struck a layer of yellow light, and the attack failed.
The stones under Zheng Wenhan's feet cracked, and the broken stones quickly reorganized into a huge hand, lifting him up high, with his fingers clasped together, protecting Zheng Wenhan inside.
A ball of fire whizzed over and hit the gravel. The condensed big "fist" head was expanding. A beautiful girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, every pore of her was spraying flames, and every hair was wrapped with red light.
The girl came with fire, punched the giant hand in the void and exploded with flames, making a deafening explosion. The rubble flew everywhere, a huge gap broke out, and green smoke came out.
Immediately afterwards, in the exploding fire, another figure walked out of the flames, also spraying flames all over his body, and punched the gap like a relay.
Crashing, under the all-out attack of the two fire demons, the giant hand condensed with gravel fell apart, sending out high-temperature fragments.
Zheng Wenhan's embarrassed figure appeared. Before Jiang Jingwei, Red Chicken Brother and Sun Miaomiao could finish their attacks, a black shadow swooped down from the sky, clamped Zheng Wenhan's shoulders with sharp claws, and took him into the sky.
It was a giant eagle with a wingspan of two meters.
Boom.!
The sound of the strings was like a thunderbolt, and an arrow shot out, hitting Zheng Wenhan. The arrow made a shrill whistle in the air.
At the same time, two flying swords, one long and one short, were like silver threads, attacking Zheng Wenhan and the black-feathered giant eagle.
In several courtyards of the Zheng Mansion, flying swords were used to intercept arrows at the same time. The flying swords made a "ding-ding" sound in the night sky. Several flying swords collided with each other and sparks flew everywhere.
Zheng Wenshihan avoided the assassination by the flying sword with great surprise. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the "buzzing" sound of the knife coming from his ears.
Looking around, he saw a black shadow passing by at an incredible speed, reaching his eyes in the blink of an eye.
More flying swords rushed up from below the Zheng Mansion, trying to intercept the black shadow.
However, the black shadow was able to avoid the attacks of the flying swords with lightning speed. One of the flying swords was clearly about to pierce the opponent, but it strangely changed its trajectory and took the initiative to get out of the way.
This is the effect of praying.
"hiss…"
Black shadows and giant eagles passed each other, Zheng Wenhan's body split from the waist, and his lower body fell with blood and organs.
"Killed? It's very easy!"
Brother Hong Ji and Jiang Jingwei had such thoughts in their minds at the same time, with victorious smiles on their faces.
Applause of "papapapa" suddenly rang out, and the closed door opened, and another Zheng Wenhan in brocade clothes came out with gentle applause.
"What a great show." Zheng Wenhan stepped out of the threshold, stood under the eaves, looked around, and said with a smile, "Are these people who have extraordinary skills and tacit cooperation so much want to kill me?"
"What a pity. I am actually the imperial master of the dynasty. I am the protector of the country and can easily avoid disasters. Now that they have all shown up, what are you waiting for?"
As soon as these words came out, many figures jumped up from all directions and stood on the roof, surrounding Jiang Jingwei, Brother Hongji, Sun Miaomiao, the palace master, Xiao Yuan, as well as Guan Ya, Xu Changlao, Yang Mansion Zhou Keqing and others who took action secretly.
A total of twenty-two people.
Jiang Jingwei looked around and even though she was not good at math, she noticed something was wrong.
Are there too many saints in the Zheng Mansion?
Moreover, there were eight saints who gave her a sense of extreme danger, and they were the pinnacle saints.
This is inconsistent with the number of five peak saints and nine ordinary saints previously speculated.
Where there was an assassination, it was obvious that they had thrown themselves into the trap.
A burly middle-aged man with a beard glared at Jiang Jingwei angrily: "My father arranged for you to enter the palace to kill the faint king to avenge blood, but you were obsessed with lust and took refuge in Zhao Shun. My father will kill you tonight." This little beast."
A private room in a restaurant two hundred meters away.
Zheng Wenshi finally looked back at the Zheng Mansion from a distance and summoned his adjutant, "The time has come to issue orders. Inform the entire army to support the Zheng family."
When the adjutant loudly agreed, he held the sword on his waist and strode out of the private room with his armor clanking.
Tianji Tower.
In the dim room, the Imperial Master stood at the observation deck with his hands behind his hands, and said with emotion, "Wouldn't Your Majesty take part in such an interesting appearance? It's not too late to rush there now."
Six or seven meters away, Zhang Yuanqingpan was sitting in front of the desk, slowly making tea.
"Lure me out of the Tianji Tower and use the Zheng family to kill me?"
He lowered his head and chuckled: "The Imperial Master made a good plan, and everyone in the Northern Dynasty heard it.
The Imperial Master remained silent for a few seconds without replying, and then said slowly, "Your Majesty, you are still able to remain calm even when faced with a great calamity. You were looked down upon in the past."
"It's hard to say who will be in trouble. The Imperial Master will keep an eye on it," Zhang Yuanqing said.
