Cloud of the Qing Dynasty

The north, west, east and three sides of the villa are surrounded by mountain walls. The strongest warehouse in the villa was dug out of the rocks. Now the iron gate has been sealed from the inside. The flames of war are still standing still, and they have more important tasks.

One of the sergeants shifted his focus anxiously, and finally gritted his teeth: "I'm a little urgent to pee, I'll be back soon."

"Hurry up!" urged another.

The sergeant raised his gun and wanted to deal with it at the corner of the wall. He walked away for a few steps when he heard a strange sound behind him. He looked back and saw his companion was covered by a man in black. The throat was slit from behind, and the blood spurted out, forming an arc in the air.

In extreme shock, he immediately put the bamboo whistle hanging around his neck into his mouth, but before he could blow it, he felt a pain in his chest, and a sharp knife pierced out of his chest.

A ten-fingered hand grabbed the bamboo whistle and threw it on the ground and crushed it. The dying sergeant was pushed aside. Before he took his last breath, he watched in despair as more than a dozen men in black appeared in the night. , Gathered at the gate of the iron gate.

"It's here, I watched them go in with my own eyes!" A boy from Tingquan Villa pointed to the iron gate and said with certainty, "Witnessed by the holy fire god, if the villain deceives the holy envoy with a word, he is willing to suffer the karma of hell forever." The torment of fire!"

Seeing the frenzy in his eyes, the envoy in black nodded silently: "Go down."

A congregation tried to pry open the iron door with a weapon, but the iron door didn't move at all. The emissary in black told the others to back away. With luck in his palm, he was about to slap the iron door open when he heard a thunder from behind. roared like: "The thief will die!"

Qin Chu, who arrived in time, stabbed fiercely at the back of the black-clothed holy envoy, but was immediately stopped by the black-clothed holy envoy's subordinates.

Qin Chu was able to become the captain of the personal guard. Apart from the fact that Lu Zhiqian took him by his side to teach and train him personally, his own martial arts are not weak. At any rate, he learned the unique marksmanship of a certain senior in the army. Even the men in black couldn't get close, but he was the only one who firmly guarded the iron gate.

The two sergeants who followed him were far behind him, and they also arrived at this time, and blew the bamboo whistle for help, and the sharp whistle spread in the dark night.

The black-clothed holy envoy knew that he could not delay the time, and his move was a killer move. He stabbed at Qin Chu with a sword. Qin Chu barely parried his spear, but his mouth was numb from the shock. He knew that he was not the assassin of the Red Lotus Sect in front of him. Opponent, but behind the iron gate is General Lu, whose life is hanging by a thread, and he can't retreat even a step.

The two sergeants who came with him might be considered able to fight in the army, but they were powerless to resist the siege of cult masters several times their own, and were quickly killed.

When Zhang Chi, Ye Hai and others rushed to hear the whistle, Qin Chu was covered in injuries and was still resisting the siege of the black-clothed envoy and his men alone.

Seeing the reinforcements coming, the envoy in black became anxious. He knocked Qin Chu back more than ten steps with his palm, then turned around and hit the iron gate with a palm that could split mountains and rocks.

There was a loud bang, and the bolt of the iron door was visibly deformed, revealing a gap about a finger's width between the two crumbling iron doors.

***

The sudden loud noise made Mu Liuyun, who was exercising his skills, frowned. He only felt that the zhenqi in his body stagnated, but he immediately calmed down and continued to concentrate on the movement of zhenqi.

Holding the sword, Qing Ling nervously guarded Mu Liuyun's side. She has only just started for a while, and her martial arts are not very good, but she also has the determination to fight the enemy to the death in order to protect Grand Master Uncle.

The envoy in black had vaguely seen the pair of figures in armor and Taoist robes through the gap, but suddenly hearing the sound of a sharp weapon piercing the wind behind him, Qin Chu, who was so anxious, broke through forcefully regardless of two more wounds on his body. The siege of the black-clothed envoy's subordinates once again killed the black-clothed envoy.

The envoy in black was all focused on the two people inside the door, and without looking back, he stabbed behind him with his sword, trying to force Qin Chu away, but Qin Chu didn't expect that Qin Chu would not dodge or dodge, and let the sword go in. between his chest and belly.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the holy envoy in black wanted to withdraw his hands and dodge it, but it was too late. Qin Chu shot him with all his strength, and almost pierced him through. He sent a palm flying horizontally, but after all, he seriously injured the Red Lotus Sect master who was far above him in terms of martial arts.

The envoy in black pulled out the tip of the gun that was stuck in his chest, clutching the bleeding wound in disbelief, he looked at the desperate guy in shock and anger, after Qin Chu was hit by him and fell to the ground There was no more sound. Under such serious injuries, no one could survive.

This time, the people who followed the envoys in black were all fire guard-level masters of the Red Lotus Sect, and they forced the sergeants who came to support them to be unable to take a step forward, but after all, those sergeants cooperated with each other tacitly. Five people formed a small army formation, and stabbed the enemy one after another from different angles. Even the masters of the Red Lotus Sect couldn't resist, and they were stabbed by a single shot if they were careless. He was stabbed to death by random guns.

Ye Hai also held a long sword and led some guys who knew martial arts from Tingquan Villa to join the battle. His martial arts were not bad, even if he was besieged by several men in black, he would not be defeated.

The envoy in black spat out another mouthful of blood. He saw more and more reinforcements running towards this side. Although the Red Lotus Sect's amazing soldiers were skilled in martial arts, they were outnumbered after all. It was only a matter of time before they were wiped out. After the Iron Gate, Mu Liuyun and Lu Zhiqian, who were healing their injuries, had no power to resist at all. Even if someone pushed them violently, it would be enough to kill them.

Taking advantage of the short time when his subordinates could resist for a while and the reinforcements couldn't kill them for a while, the black-clothed envoy endured the severe pain of the wound and the bursts of dizziness, and desperately hit the crumbling iron again. On the door.

Under his desperate blow, the iron gate finally collapsed.

The black-clothed envoy's wound also spurted a lot of blood because of the forceful palm. He knelt down with all his strength, and watched several subordinates rush into the door.

But what awaited them were not two targets that could only be slaughtered at will, but two sharp swords coming towards them.

Qingliu, who was wearing Lu Zhigan's armor, and Qingyue, who was wearing Mu Liuyun's Taoist robe, rushed out together, beheading a man in black who was caught off guard on the spot, and then they stood back to back, using the defensive formation in the Liangyi formation to resist The siege of other men in black.

"We were fooled!" a man in black shouted.

The envoy in black looked desperately at the warehouse where there were only stacks of goods and no other people were seen at all, and shouted with the last of his strength: "Everyone spread out! No matter what the price is, we must find that Lu!"

***

The people behind the iron gate were actually Qingliu and Qingyue. Not only the people of the Red Lotus Sect did not expect this, even the sergeants of the Iron Wolf Cavalry were shocked.

The man in black couldn't find Lu Zhigan's whereabouts in the end, and when all the assassins were killed, the sergeants couldn't wait to ask Zhang Chi, wondering where General Lu had been hidden by him.

Zhang Chi ignored them, but anxiously inspected the corpses all over the floor with a bloody spear in one hand and a torch in the other.

He finally found Qin Chu in a corner.

Seeing the young captain of the personal guard lying motionless in a pool of blood, Zhang Chi was filled with unspeakable pain, and he turned Qin Chu's body over as gently as possible.

Qin Chu took a deep breath, but he was still alive. He grabbed Zhang Chi's hand with the last bit of strength, and said a word with difficulty: "General..."

Zhang Chi squeezed out a smile: "Don't worry, the general is safe, the assassins have all been wiped out, and we have won."

Qin Chu heaved a sigh of relief, and finally closed his eyes with peace of mind.

Zhang Chi hugged Qin Chu's body, looked up at the blood-soaked brothers around him, and said calmly and even a little flatly: "Don't stand still here, clean up the wound quickly, and those who can still be beaten go to the city wall , ready to deal with the next wave of attacks."

These Red Lotus Sect masters who broke into the villa caused huge casualties to the few remaining iron wolf cavalry guards. If the Red Lotus Sect continues to attack like this, Zhang Chi is not sure how long they can resist.

But no one knew these iron wolf riders better than him. Even if they fought to the last person, they would not let the Red Lotus Sect members step into Tingquan Villa.

Looking at these sergeants who were dragging their wounds and getting busy again, Ye Hai sighed softly, and ordered everyone in the village to help treat the wounded and collect the corpses.

***

In the woods outside the villa, Wei Fantian silently looked at the flames of the city through the gaps between the branches, without showing any expression on his stone-like face.

Beside him, several congregants carried a bamboo recliner, on which leaned a pale old man with bandages on his chest and abdomen. It was Yin Yang, the elder of the Red Lotus Sect who was almost cut to pieces by Lu Zhiqian. flag.

Wei Fantian had stood motionless for a long time, and the attack at the city wall was repulsed again, but the signal he was waiting for had never appeared. Seeing that the east was slightly pale, Wei Fantian finally turned around and said: "Send the order!" Get down, retreat."

Hearing these words, Yin Yang Qi ignored the pain of the wound on his body, propped up his upper body anxiously and persuaded: "Young Master, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, are we just giving up for nothing like this?"

Wei Fantian turned his face and looked at him expressionlessly: "Are you questioning my decision?"

"Subordinates don't dare." Under Wei Fantian's power, Yin Yang Qi had no choice but to bow his head and submissively, but his tone was obviously not very convinced, "It's just that we have sacrificed so many congregants and believers, and it seems that the black clothes have also suffered. Unexpectedly, if we go back without gaining anything like this, I'm afraid the leader will blame me and I won't be able to bear it."

"Oh?" Wei Fantian's voice could not hear any joy or anger, "Then with the elder's opinion, what can we do?"

"We have so many congregants, and dozens of blood slaves." Yin Yang Qi, who was so injured that he couldn't stand up, said with a hoarse voice, looking at Wei Fantian excitedly, "There are not many people left in the city. Well, the young master's martial arts are world-class, if he can personally attack, he will be able to attack the top of the city in one go, as long as the suspension bridge is lowered, with our large number of people and the blood slaves as the vanguard, we will definitely be able to take this villa."

Behind them, dozens of blood slaves were chained in chains with shackles around their necks. Since the priests of the Red Lotus Sect who could control the blood slaves with flute sounds had not issued a signal, these blood slaves just stood there with a dull expression.After all, these blood slaves like mad dogs don't know how to climb walls and attack the city. Even if they are released in this situation, they will only hurt people indiscriminately.

Wei Fantian sneered: "The elder has full confidence in me, but I don't know when our goal became to occupy this villa?"

"As long as this villa is taken down, are you afraid that no one will be found?"
