Qiu Shuang and Dong Xue insisted that Feixiang come with them. Naturally, they couldn't watch others taking risks to protect their villages while they stayed behind and watched.
Feixiang saw this and hurriedly told Luo Chuan. Time was pressing and there should be no delay. Luo Chuan had no choice but to agree to them. So Ximen Shan took Luo Chuan, Feiying, Feixiang, Zheng Bai, Lu Mei, Qiu Shuang and Dong Xue out of He's house, jumped on his horse and headed straight for the valley.
The eight people from Ximen Mountain galloped all the way, and they arrived at the road of more than two miles in a blink of an eye. Ximenshan waited until they reached the foot of the mountain and immediately went straight to the top of the mountain. Four of Hongxing's servants came forward and told them that there were five or six large boats coming by the river, and they should be members of the boat gang.
Luo Chuan nodded and looked up, and sure enough he saw six large boats parked by the river. Judging from the size of these boats, at least four to five hundred people were coming.
At this moment, a group of people appeared in front. Luo Chuan looked up and saw that the leader was the one who escaped. This person's name is Li Xing, the master of Shantang.
Luo Chuan immediately shouted sharply: "The defeated general still dares to come. Do you really want to die?"
It turned out that Li Xing was very good at water and his injuries were not serious. He swam out of the river for some time when he came across a fishing boat. Li Xing immediately killed the fisherman, robbed the fishing boat, and fled back to the boat gang headquarters.
Seeing Li Xing in such a mess, everyone in the boat gang was so angry that they gathered more than 400 people and six large boats to take revenge.
After Li Xing took the medicine, in order to save his face, he volunteered to be a pioneer. Also traveling with Li Xing was Li Wu, who was also a leader of the Boat Gang. Li Wu had just been reprimanded for his poor performance.
Li Wu and Li Xing were both criminals in the boat gang, so they wanted to make atonement for their sins. As soon as they got off the boat, they led more than a hundred people to set off first and headed straight for Taohua Village.
Unexpectedly, he didn't go far when he saw someone blocking the road in front of the mountain, and then heard Luo Chuan's shout. The two of them were stunned for a moment, then looked up and saw that they were enemies on a narrow road. The person blocking the road in front of them was Luo Chuan, who had defeated them.
Although the two of them hated Luo Chuan in their hearts, they also knew that they were no match for Luo Chuan. At this moment, Luo Chuan occupies a favorable location. There is only a narrow path in front of them, which cannot accommodate a few people and cannot take advantage of the large number of people.
Although Li Xing saw that there were only eight people in Liu Luochuan's group, the two of them had doubts and stopped in their tracks. They did not dare to step forward rashly and asked someone to quickly notify the leader of the Boat Gang behind them.
After a while, the leader of the Boat Gang came to the front with several hall leaders and guardians. The sun had already set at this time, but the afterglow of the setting sun still illuminated the earth. Seeing that Li Wu and Li Xing did not dare to come forward, Luo Chuan said no more.
For Luo Chuan, the longer the delay is, the more time it will buy for people from various villages to come. Soon, several people from the boat gang came out from behind. The first thing Luo Chuan saw were two young men and women. The man was Li Zhen, the new leader of the Boat Gang, and the woman was Ruoxue, the saint of the Boat Gang.
While Luo Chuan was thinking, Feixiang said first, "Everyone, this road is blocked, please find another way."
Seeing Feixiang speak, Luo Chuan knew that she was trying to delay time, so he nodded towards her to express his approval of her plan.
Li Zhen ignored Feixiang and said to Luo Chuan: "Who are you? How dare you block the way of our boat gang. For the sake of God's kindness, I, the gang leader, will spare your lives."
Luo Chuan snorted coldly and shouted: "No, we have something to do here and we can't leave. You'd better take a detour."
Li Zhen was furious and was about to scold Feiyun when someone responded: "Gang leader, I would like to take the lead." Li Zhen saw that it was Li Wu. Although Li Wushang knew that he might not be his opponent, he took the lead in asking for a fight in order to claim credit in front of Li Zhen.
Li Zhen nodded, and Li Wu immediately waved his sword and rushed towards Luo Chuan. Lu Mei suddenly jumped up, pulled out the sword, crossed the flying eagle from behind, and met Li Wu.
Li Wu struck straight at him with his sword, and Lu Mei waved her sword to meet him. Li Wu couldn't figure out the opponent's strength, so he didn't dare to touch him head-on. He hurriedly flipped his wrist, rounded his sword, and changed his moves to slash horizontally.
Lu Mei saw that the opponent did not dare to attack him forcefully, and knew that he was holding a sword in his hand, so he attacked with confidence. Li Wu was indeed not weak in martial arts. He relied on his flexible body skills to fight with Lu Mei, and for a while they were inseparable.
When Li Xing saw Li Wu being blocked by Lu Mei, he immediately shouted and charged towards Luo Chuan with his sword. Luo Chuan was about to step forward to fight, but Feixiang flew over to meet him first.
Feixiang has seen that Li Zhencai is the strongest opponent, so she doesn't want Luo Chuan to waste his energy on these minions, and naturally she doesn't want Ximen Shan to be too tired. Li Xing felt relieved when he saw Feixiang coming to intercept. He had just been defeated by Luo Chuan, and he was no match. It was just that due to the situation, I had to show off in front of Li Zhen, so I reluctantly played.
Li Xing had never fought against Feixiang. Seeing that she was just a young girl in her twenties, he didn't take her seriously. As soon as Li Xing came up, he slashed with his sword. Feixiang sneered and faced him with the sword. There were only two clanging sounds, and the two swords collided. Li Xing felt a light touch in his hands, and the sword had been cut into two pieces. Li Xing was shocked and realized that in his hand was a sword that was as sharp as clay.
While Li Xing was stunned, Feixiang attacked with his left palm at the same time. Li Xing came to his senses and hurriedly waved his hands to greet him without having time to think about it. Hearing a snap sound and pressing his palms together, Li Xing was shaken and flew backwards.
But Li Xing is not an ordinary person. He was caught off guard just because he despised Feixiang. As soon as Feixiang succeeded, he swung his sword and stabbed straight at him.
At this moment, a figure flew over and struck Feixiang's sword away from the side with a swing of his sword. Feixiang took a look and saw that it was Ruoxue. It turned out that Ruoxue saw that Li Xing was in danger and hurriedly jumped out to block Feixiang.
Li Zhen immediately said: "Brothers, don't underestimate this woman. Don't underestimate her when you meet her in the future. Let me deal with the person opposite, while Li Wu and the three hall masters will deal with the other four men and women. , the four guardians led people to Chengtaohua Village. I suspect that they are deliberately delaying the time, and we cannot be fooled." Everyone naturally agreed.
So Li Zhen gave the order and rushed over with the three hall masters Li Wu and Feng Yulei. Li Zhen hated Luo Chuan so much that he stabbed him with his sword. Luo Chuan jumped up and raised his sword to meet him. The two met in the air, their swords collided, and their bodies were knocked to the ground.
Luo Chuan felt that the opponent's internal strength was no worse than his own, so he did not dare to be careless at the moment and concentrated on fighting. Both of them were very cautious, so they were evenly matched for a while. Of course, if Luo Chuan goes all out, he can definitely defeat Li Zhen. It's just that he has to be distracted to observe other people's situations, and his martial arts performance will inevitably be compromised.
At the same time, Li Wu and the three boat gang leaders also fought against the four old men of Ximen. Li Wu rushed over, Qiu Shuang greeted him with his sword, and the two fought fiercely. Li Wu was obviously more skilled, and after a few moves, he had the upper hand.
The leader of the Fengtang of the Boat Gang fought with Dongxue. After a few moves, Dongxue gradually lost to him. Lu Ying and Zheng Bai met the Yutang Hall Master and Lei Hall Hall Master of the Boat Gang respectively, and they were no match. After a few moves, he could only parry.
At this time, Luo Chuan noticed that Li Zhen seemed to be deliberately trying to lure him away from the mountain pass, and so did everyone else. Even though Li Xing and others had the upper hand, they moved out of the way intentionally or unintentionally while fighting.
While Luo Chuan was thinking, he saw the boat gang suddenly rushing towards the valley under the leadership of four guardians. Luo Chuan immediately understood Li Zhen's intention. They just wanted to rely on the strength of the crowd to entangle a few of them and let others go straight to Taohua Village.
Luo Chuan didn't know at this time whether the nearby villages had arrived, so he could only try his best to stop them. Luo Chuan immediately used all his strength to draw out his sword and palm. Li Zhen was attacked by him and couldn't resist, so he had to take a few steps back.
Luo Chuan took the opportunity to fly over and blocked the four guardians who were about to move forward. Feixiang also saw through Li Zhen's plot at this time, so he swung his sword repeatedly, but Ruoxue did not dare to take it hard and had to retreat. Feixiang took the opportunity to fly over and stood next to Luo Chuan.
At the same time, Feiying also fought off Li Wu and flew to Luo Chuan. The four guardian martial arts of the Boat Gang and the four hall leaders are not much different, so they are naturally no match for Ximen Shan.
Ximen Shan swung his crutch around and struck hard with his left palm, knocking back the two guardians in one fell swoop. Feiying and Feixiang slashed straight with their swords, cutting off the steel knives of the other two guardians. The four guardians were shocked and had to retreat. Due to the small space, Li Zhen and others were blocked at the back.
Qiu Shuang and the others were already at a disadvantage, so upon seeing this, they hurriedly turned around and retreated. Li Xing and others wanted to catch up, but were blocked by Luo Chuan and Feixiang. Luo Chuan said to Lu Mei and others: "Everyone, be careful, we must not leave the mouth of the valley. Fei Ying, Fei Xiang, you use the swords in your hands and don't worry about any moves. They don't dare to use force. We don't seek to kill the enemy. Just hold on here. Qiu Shuang, Dong Xue, the four of you must join forces to fight against the enemy, never separate. Master, you are the last line of defense." Everyone agreed in unison.
Seeing that his success fell short, Li Zhen was so angry that he cursed the four guardians. Li Zhen thought for a while and then said to Ruoxue and Li Wu: "Sister Ruoxue, Hall Master Li, you two will join me later to entangle Luo Chuan and the others. We still have to fight and retreat at the same time. After trying to lure the three of them away, Li Xing continued to lead his people to deal with the remaining four. Those four are not very good at martial arts, so you can definitely take them down." Everyone agreed.
After Li Zhen finished explaining, he rushed over again with Ruoxue and Li Wu. Luo Chuan sneered and waved his sword to greet him. Feixiang and Feiying Feiying also fought against Ruoxue and Li Wu at the same time. Li Zhen and Luo Chuan exchanged a few moves, then pretended to be unable to resist Luo Chuan's palm power and flew backwards.
But Luo Chuan remained unmoved and did not pursue him at all. Ruoxue and Li Wu also retreated after exchanging several moves. Feiying and Feixiang just sneered and did not pursue them. It turned out that Feixiang and the other three had been prepared for their move for a long time, so they would not fall for it.
Li Zhen was furious when he saw that Luo Chuan and the others did not fall into the trap. So he ordered the gang to take out their bows and arrows, and fired arrows at Luo Chuan and others. Suddenly arrows flew straight towards Luo Chuan and others like locusts. Luo Chuan was calm and kept waving his sword.
When the flying arrows arrived in front of Luo Chuan, they were all deflected away. Even if they missed a few, they were shot down by Feiying and Feixiang with their swords. Li Zhen was so angry when he saw this. He had no choice but to order a pause in firing arrows and think of another way.
