Things like the divine fire flying crow, the rifle gun, and the squatting tiger cannon in the Ming army could not be obtained in a hurry, not to mention the in-laws of the prefect, even the prefect himself. However, the fireworks and firecrackers, with the Liu family's connections, could not be obtained in a hurry. After notifying the county magistrate, we can get a lot.
It is also because July and a half is coming soon, and the custom here in Nanyang is to burn paper on the graves, worship ancestors, and set off firecrackers during clan reunions. Now is the time when there is a lot of inventory, and more than a thousand kilograms were obtained at once.
Qiu Di was outside the old house and used his magic mirror to vaguely sense the location of his three senior brothers. He was 90% sure that they were in the backyard.
Guan Luoyang chose to rush straight from the main entrance.
With the crackling sound of firecrackers and the fireworks that exploded one after another in the sky, a small part fell into the water and did not have time to explode, but some fell into the water and still exploded continuously with splashes of water.
There were fires, smoke, water sounds everywhere, and there was so much movement.
But in fact, Guan Luoyang overturned the fireworks and firecrackers on the entire cart and scattered them. Not only did they scatter throughout the yard, they even fell on the roof of the lobby.
This kind of density may cause serious injuries to ordinary people, but for those with some skills and knowledge of magic, it will be a little troublesome at best.
Several people on the roof used their own methods to dodge or block.
Zhao Qianniu danced his steel sword, and no fireworks came close to him.
Boss Wen turned sideways and swept twice with his sleeves, knocking down a few firecrackers.
Even at this time, he still maintained the Feng Shui illusion, and people outside could not see the people on the roof.
But just when he saw those firecrackers changing their trajectory and falling to the side, a bright light seemed to flash in his mind.
"Um?"
As the fireworks exploded all over the courtyard in front of the hall, the largest splash of water suddenly exploded, roaring forward.
Guan Luoyang stepped heavily on the ground, and before the water on the ground could close up, it was split open by his subsequent steps. After a few steps, his whole body gathered momentum and went up to the roof from the middle of the yard.
The sword was unsheathed.
Qiu Di's Bagua bronze mirror was now firmly tied to the inside of his left wrist. The mirror surface was cold and did not heat up. The invisible people in front of him were not from the same sect.
call out!
The evil-destroying ancient sword screamed in front of his eyes, as if cutting open a false curtain diagonally, and by the way cut open the old man's body hidden behind the curtain.
Guan Luoyang moved sideways and moved in a lunge. The blade of the ancient sword just happened to meet Zhao Qianniu's steel sword. The blades collided and a string of fire appeared.
Boss Wen looked at the two swords fighting over there and felt the coldness passing through his body diagonally, turning into heat.
Blood spurted out, and when the body fell, it split into two pieces.
When the blood spread on the roof, the two swords over there blocked it in a thrilling way and slashed in the opposite direction. They had already fought a dozen times without missing a beat.
Fighting a knife like this is the most damaging method to the blade. An ordinary knife will basically be useless after fighting it like this for more than a dozen times.
Guan Luoyang and Zhao Qianniu are both expert swordsmen. Normally, they would never waste their blades like this.
But the two of them were too close at this time, and they were both surprised by the speed of the opponent's sword swing. Apart from high-intensity continuous slashing, there was no chance to change their styles.
Sparks flew everywhere and there was a loud explosion.
Guan Luoyang noticed a slight chill on his spine, he quickly lifted up his chest and abdomen, exhaled loudly, and deflected the blade.
when! ! ! !
The two knives were chopped together, and Zhao Qianniu's mouth spurted bright red blood. He saw his own knife break, and the opposite knife hit his neck.
His steel knife was not cut off, but smashed.
Guan Luoyang used the back of the knife.
At that moment, there was a sudden increase in force. If the blades fought with each other, Guan Luoyang's sword might break together, but with the back of the blade, it would be different.
Relying on the explosion of Qi training, he used the back of the knife to break the steel knife on the other side, then slashed down from the opponent's neck, breaking Zhao Qianniu's thick collarbone and getting stuck between the broken bones.
Guan Luoyang didn't even have time to draw his sword, so he dodged sideways.
Tuk, poof, tsk!
Three iron picks passed by and were nailed to Zhao Qianniu's body. One pierced the bones of his face, one pierced his lungs, and one pierced his intestines.
Guan Luoyang retreated to a corner of the roof and looked over half sideways.
Only then did he have time to take a closer look at how many people were on the roof.
In addition to the two who were hacked to death just now, there was also an old man with a stick, a masked man in a hat with a little monkey squatting next to him, and a skinny young man with iron picks between his fingers.
Master Luo's slit old eyes suddenly widened. Even if he pressed them back again, his eyes still looked bigger than before.
"who are you?"
He was furious: Where did such a killer come from? ! !
In an instant, he could be sure that this was definitely not a person from the Zhenwu Temple.
Those Taoist priests fight monsters and imps, and they have fought many battles in their lives.
But exorcism is exorcism, killing is killing, they must not be confused.
Even a Taoist priest like Jiuhe who had participated in the encirclement and suppression of water pirates and had seen big scenes could not have such a murderous intention to kill anyone on sight.
The situation was unclear and the right path was lost. Even if Jiuhe could also sense the general location of the little Taoist priests, he would still be helpless.
As the saying goes, the older you get in the world, the less courageous you are. It’s not that you are really timid, but that after you have gained experience, you have strong association skills and worry too much. You are afraid of accidental injury, fear of enmity, and fear of being implicated in too many things after killing a special person. Hard to clean up.
The young boy is reckless, courageous but weak, unable to seize real opportunities. There are too few opportunities for Lao Jianghu to act unscrupulously. Only one kind of person is an exception...
The sound of the southern firecrackers has basically disappeared, but the movement of some large fireworks continues.
The fireworks were going off in the night sky, Master Luo stared at Guan Luoyang, and the more he thought about it, the more he became a little hairy.
It can be seen from the few moves this man fought with Zhao Qianniu just now that if they were face to face, one Zhao Qianniu could entangle him, and it would not be difficult for two or three of them to kill him together.
But the result was a face-to-face encounter, and two of the five people died. It was so frustrating.
This vision of creating opportunities by oneself and the decisiveness of using the knife even reminded Master Luo of the person he followed.
The murderous star who unified the five water pirates back then and secured his position as the leader as a woman.
During the brief confrontation on the roof, the sound of cracking wood and the sound of water could be heard in the backyard.
Qiu Di dived in, broke through the decaying back door of the old house, and broke into the backyard.
"Brother!"
Qiu Shi was originally paying attention to the situation on the roof. He turned his head when he heard the sound, his expression changed, and he shouted quickly: "Be careful!"
It was extremely dark in the backyard. Except for the area illuminated by the lantern in Qiu Shi's hand, everything else seemed to be indistinct.
Just when Qiu Di stepped in, strange chirping sounds came from all directions. In the darkness, one after another quickly shrinking short figures jumped out and pounced on Qiu Di.
That weird animal, like a monkey that had all its hair shaved off and then coated with a layer of blue-grey, but the black nails were sharp and long and had a metallic sheen, but they definitely didn't look like what a monkey could grow out of.
The strange man in a bamboo hat on the roof, the monkey official Tang Zhi, touched the castanets in his hands.
Most of the strange monkeys in the backyard bounced up like balls and jumped towards Guan Luoyang.
