Several riders appeared from the direction where the cloud-piercing arrows were launched, galloping towards Fulong Temple.
On horseback were the night watchmen, waving their flags wildly.
This is the local night watchman in Guankou County. Qin Qiaoer arranged him around the battlefield to be responsible for investigation and security.
At this moment they obviously made a discovery.
Sun Xianzong was the best at flag language. When he saw the command flags waved by the night watchmen from a distance, his expression changed. After flying away a Black Lotus cult demon in front of him, he turned to Qin Shaoyou and said loudly: "Sir, this flag language is meaningful. Enemy troops appear all around, let us retreat quickly!"
enemy?
Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and others all raised their eyebrows.
Could it be the reinforcements from this group of Black Lotus Sect monsters?
How many people came here to make the night watchmen in Guankou County so nervous that they should evacuate immediately?
These questions were soon answered.
But after a few breaths, several groups of cavalry appeared behind the warning night watchmen.
The number of people in each team is nearly a hundred!
Seeing the appearance of these cavalry, Qin Shaoyou immediately concluded that they were definitely not followers of the Black Lotus Sect.
Not only because they were fully armored and armed, but also because their weapons, costumes, etc. were completely different from the style of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Especially in each group of hundreds of cavalry, there is also a man riding a war horse but without armor.
These people were wearing dark red robes, and their faces were covered with masks made from the skulls of cows, sheep and other animals. In their hands, they were either holding staffs wrapped with countless sutras, or they were holding some magical instruments that looked like tambourines and bells. .
"Qingtang Barbarians! They are Qingtang Barbarians and Qingtang Wizards!"
Ever since Qingtang invaded, Qin Shaoyou had read a lot of information related to Qingtang. When he saw these groups of cavalry, especially those wearing dark red robes and wearing bone masks, he immediately regarded them as identified.
Qin Qiaoer and the red-clothed envoys under him also recognized the identities of these Qingtang barbarians and Qingtang wizards, and their expressions became increasingly ugly.
Different from the demons of the Black Lotus Sect, the Qingtang barbarians are regular troops after all. They master the method of military formation and can gather the strength of soldiers to leapfrog and kill high-level monks.
Even if there are five or six levels of masters in the Red-clothed Messenger and the Mianyuan County Demon Division, once they fall into the formation of hundreds of Qingtang barbarians, they will probably not be able to escape from being hacked to death with random swords or killed in random battles. The consequences of being shot to death by an arrow!
Not to mention, the strength of this group of Qingtang barbarians is not bad, almost all are eighth or ninth grade warriors, among them there are even more powerful centurions and Qingtang wizards!
This is obviously an elite force from Qingtang.
But why are they here?
Did he collude with the Black Lotus Sect and become their reinforcements?
wrong.
Qin Shaoyou keenly noticed that the few remaining Black Lotus Sect demons on the battlefield were full of shock and astonishment after seeing the appearance of these Qingtang barbarians.
It seems that they didn't know that the Qingtang barbarians would appear here.
In addition, Qin Shaoyou also discovered that there were human heads with evil spirits tied around the waists of some Qingtang barbarians.
These heads were still bleeding, as if they had just been chopped off.
These heads were the reinforcements of the Black Lotus Sect demons. They met the Qingtang barbarians on the way and were massacred. Their heads were chopped off as trophies!
Since these Qingtang barbarians are not associates of the Black Lotus Sect demons, why do they appear here?
Is it a coincidence?
Or are they also here for Qin Erlang?
How did they cross the front line and arrive in Guankou County?
Countless questions instantly appeared in Qin Shaoyou's mind.
The red-clothed envoys cursed in surprise:
"What the hell is Marquis Dongchuan doing? Hundreds of Qingtang barbarians were just released into the hinterland of Yizhou? Is he building a defensive front on the front line, or a big colander? When we get back to the capital, we must be fine Get him a copy of raw ginseng!"
Although Qin Qiaoer was surprised, he maintained his composure and quickly analyzed:
"The Marquis of Dongchuan is building a defense system between the city and the fort on the front line. There are gaps between the city and the city, and between the fort and the fort. The large group of Qingtang barbarians crossing the border can be easily discovered, but if they are organized It was zero, and it was still possible to cross the border at night. However, from the front line to Guankou County, there were several prefectures and counties, but none of them found this group of Qingtang barbarians. They gave warnings, which shows that these Qingtang barbarians were not only divided into They dispersed, and even disguised themselves to sneak into the crowd of refugees. They didn't regroup until they reached Guankou County and Lishan..."
Speaking of this, she and Qin Shaoyou looked at each other.
The two of them were almost sure at the same time that this group of Qingtang barbarians were coming for Qin Erlang.
Otherwise it would not have been such a coincidence!
I just don’t know what Qingtang wants Qin Erlang to do?
Taken as hostages? Or does it have other uses?
From the warning of the Cloud-Piercing Arrow to the present, it was only a matter of ten breaths.
The Qingtang barbarians who appeared all around were already shouting and catching up with the warning night watchmen. With just one knife, they shattered their protective blood and split open their copper skin and iron bones.
These night watchmen were either trampled to pulp by horses' hooves after falling off their horses, or their heads were beheaded and became the trophies of the Qingtang barbarians.
When Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and others saw the tragic death of their colleagues, their eyes were split open, and they wanted to rush forward to avenge their fallen colleagues.
But reason tells them not to do that.
Qin Shaoyou exhaled a breath of turbid air, and without hesitation, immediately ordered: "Go back to Fulongguan quickly, take Qin Erlang and Qin Gong with you, and evacuate this place quickly!"
"What to do with these Black Lotus Sect demons?" Cui Youguo asked.
He really wanted to go meet the Qingtang barbarians, but after looking at the inventory in the Nine-turn Flying Talisman Gun, he gave up the idea.
Just now, in order to earn performance, he had a blast, but it also caused the talisman stored in the Nine-turn Flying Talisman Gun to be bottomed out.
Without the big explosive tactics, it is impossible to defeat so many Qingtang barbarians by relying only on the flaming sword and spells.
What he, Cui Youwei, wanted was to show off, not to become an idiot.
Qin Shaoyou said quickly: "Capture the killing Bodhisattva and torture him. Leave the rest alone. When the Qingtang barbarians come, they will all die!"
Although the Bodhisattva of Killing Life was seriously injured, he did not die.
It was not because he was lucky, but because he was the leader of this group of Black Lotus Sect demons, Qin Shaoyou and the others wanted to arrest him alive for interrogation, so they spared his life.
Otherwise, in the first round of raids, he would have been shot to death by the red-clothed messenger under Qin Qiaoer!
Upon hearing Qin Shaoyou's instructions, Monk Ma immediately flew towards the Killing Bodhisattva who was trying to escape in the chaos, threw him down and pinned him down.
Zhu Xiucai immediately followed, took out the shackles and chains, and trapped the Bodhisattva of Killing Life.
Monk Ma quickly stood up, picked up the killing Bodhisattva who had fainted from being crushed, put it on his shoulders, and turned back to Fulong Temple.
The Qingtang barbarians who were flying from a distance saw this scene and let out sharp screams.
They took out something like a stone rope from the leather bag on the horse's back, and after shaking it vigorously a few times above their heads, they threw the stone-like things on it in the direction of Fulong Temple.
The few Qingtang wizards in the team raised their staffs, leather drums, bells and other magic weapons at the moment when the stones flew out, and chanted spells and cast spells.
"Boom boom boom..."
With the blessing of blood energy and witchcraft, the stone's range was extremely exaggerated, and it fell directly next to Qin Shaoyou and others.
After landing, these stones exploded one after another.
Countless pieces of gravel were like bullets, flying towards the surrounding night watchmen.
Groups of poisonous mist also billowed up, flooding everyone.
