Among the buildings in the streets and alleys that are under siege. A middle-aged woman named Liu Niang, with disheveled hair, scolded her mother; without hesitation, like a whack-a-mole, she hit the sneak attacker who came over the edge of the building in the back alley and knocked him down with a club. Submerged in dumped garbage and filth.
But just like that, two or more people jumped and climbed from the side building to approach again. Then, he was stabbed in the shoulder by a long pole in Liu Niang's hand. He lost his balance and fell into the air. The others successfully climbed up the windows and railings.
At this time, Pingting, who was crouching and hugging her trembling little Yao for comfort, gritted her teeth and struggled to get up and waved a short thorn; it suddenly pierced a human face behind the wall panel, causing a shrill scream; Then he suddenly pushed the window and slapped another person on the face, causing foam and teeth to fly and he fell down.
However, another body was carried up the bamboo ladder on the opposite roof. Under the combined force of two ghost-faced warriors, it smashed through the tile roof and threw it on top of the pavilion here; then someone was eager to try. Stepping on it, the unstable bamboo ladder jumped over. With another crash, it rolled into the room covered in rubble.
But when the man shook his head and tried to get up in the smoke and dust; but he couldn't avoid the stick that Liu Niang knocked down, and could only barely turn his head and was hit on the shoulder. He let out a muffled groan but failed to fall. Instinctively, she grabbed Liu Niang's stick; suddenly she screamed loudly;
However, Pingting suddenly turned to the blind spot of his vision, and immediately stabbed the man's neck and jaw with a short thorn impeccably. She suddenly fell to the ground without a sound and spurted blood. As for the blind Ayun, he took advantage of the situation and was frightened again. He could only hold his head and crouch defensively, and was dragged inside to a relatively safe place.
But Liu Niang, who gave up the stick at this time, picked up the deceased's horizontal knife without hesitation, chopped it with her backhand on the palm of the other hand that was climbing up her arm, and the two pieces she cut off slid down together with her hand. At the same time, Pingting knocked her companion who was lifting him down and rolled into a ball; Pingting, who had pulled out the short thorn again, quickly raised it with quick eyesight and hands.
In the middle, another attacker came over the bamboo ladder, and suddenly screamed and fell on his side; then Liu Niang grabbed a lamp that was half filled with oil and threw it out of the smashed window. After crossing the sky, he was right next to the two ghost-faced warriors who were responsible for fixing the bamboo ladder in the opposite building;
Suddenly, the two people were burning close at hand, and they started beating and rolling in a hurry, but they also ignited various debris on the other side of the building. At the same time, Liu Niang took advantage of this opportunity and raised the long pole again, calling on Pingting to work together to push the bamboo ladder out of place and stuck in the roof.
As the bamboo ladder crashed down, there were screams and whines, and as the fire on the opposite roof grew bigger and bigger, people rushed to jump down to escape; for a while, the back alley where the building was located was destroyed. The crisis of a sneak attack was actually resolved again by these women.
However, the fierce battle and fierce fighting in the pavilion ahead were still going on. Although he broke into this pavilion and was shot, chopped down, and stabbed to death, the corpses of ghost-faced warriors were scattered all over the lobby among the stairways, cupboards, tables and chairs. But the ghost-faced warriors who besieged this place still had no intention of giving up.
However, Murong Wu, Chen Wentai and others who were guarding it had already shot all the arrows and chopped off the swords in their hands; even the only person who followed the mark under the guidance of Liu Niang and came to join them was also Most of them were dead or injured, and the rest were all wounded and exhausted.
In fact, the unreasonable disaster they encountered now was due to the fact that this team, called backup, was brought to their door by more than a dozen men who were treated as bait to catch a big fish in a long-term way. For this reason, the other party seemed to have given up suppressing riots and putting out fires in various parts of the ghost city, and tried their best to capture them alive.
That's right, just to capture them alive; otherwise, they might not be able to hold on until now. However, at this moment, neither Murong Wu nor Chen Wentai could take into account the exclamations and screams mixed with screams and screams in the back compartment where the women were hiding behind a wall. .
The bleak-looking Chen Wentai looked like a bloody man. He grabbed a long-handled sword and blocked the stairway opening left on the upper floor. He only felt that his strength and perception were slowly increasing with the wounds on his inner armor. The slowly passing warmth dissipated little by little; and the scene in front of him also became intermittent blurry.
Despite this, he was still muttering to himself to the unknown existence in the air;
"Hold on..." Gu
"As long as we hold on for a while, our backup will come."
"The Jinwu Guards and Xantai will definitely not ignore me and others."
Behind him, leaning on a half-cut spear, ready to support at any time, was Murong Wu, who was leaning against the wall with a large stain of blood. He didn't even have the strength to respond to him; only the eyes that he tried to open and the rising and falling of his chest could prove that. Signs that he continues to live.
As for the stairways and railings that were piled up with various debris to serve as obstacles and fortifications, the few remaining catchers and officials who were alive almost had their arms and legs broken, and almost all lost their ability to move; We relied on mutual support and encouragement to avoid collapse on the spot.
However, after such an extremely torturous time, there was still no sign of backup or reinforcements; a certain invisible aura of despair and decadence slowly spread among them. They even agreed to help each other to avoid falling into the hands of those thieves.
Therefore, when blind Ayun dragged Xiaoyao back to the front hall on the second floor, he was faced with such an atmosphere of sadness and determination. But the outside began to shout again, threatening and intimidating, saying that if the inside didn't come out and be captured, they would have to be set on fire.
However, after hearing this, Blind Ayun's scarred face revealed a certain expression of relief and tranquility. Because, she suddenly felt that this result was not bad for her; although she had had more expectations, she still felt a little regretful if they were shattered.
Then, as if she had spent all her life's tenderness and emotions, she hugged Xiaoyao tightly and whispered in her ear, "I have a way. As long as you endure it, you won't have to suffer anymore in another world."
The next moment, as a kind of warning and announcement, the strong smell of kerosene began to slowly come in from the street outside; through the broken doors and windows, one could see large barrels of refined kerosene that had been opened in the street. ;Ready to splash and dump on the building.
"Wait a minute..."
Chen Wentai, who was in the middle, also opened his mouth to say something, thinking that it would be good to delay for a moment; but he found that his throat was so hoarse that he could not speak loudly at all. Seeing those ghost market warriors scooping up fire oil with various utensils, they were about to step forward and splash it.
The next moment, a voice that rang in the sky echoed in the zenith above this ghost market, overwhelming all the noise in an instant: "Adhere to the way of heaven, transform the two rites, generate yin and yang, turn the universe, and respond to the situation." Pardon order. Heaven and earth are boundless and the universe borrows the law." (from the "Taiyi Awakening Sins, Killing Demons, and Protective Curse" of the Southern and Northern Dynasties)
In an instant, the upper floors of several buildings that were burning nearby suddenly collapsed with a roar; and then at the moment when they were scattered and falling, a long fire dragon suddenly turned and rose up, suddenly passing through the air. A hundred steps away; and the sudden fall hit the besieging ghost city warriors.
In an instant, it was like a cloud of fire exploded out of thin air, burning the crowd inside it to a crisp; then, in the midst of large sheets of screaming and rolling struggle, it ignited the overthrown flames of the fleeing crowd. The various utensils poked and discarded by kerosene instantly contaminated more bodies.
As a result, the siege on the building at the street corner seemed to collapse in the blink of an eye, and the army was completely defeated.
