Chapter 33 Escape

Youdao means - speak from both ends with one mouth.

Now that the book is here, we have to go back a little and talk about the situation of Sun Yixie and Jiang Muchan.

And that quarter of an hour ago, Shi Xuanzi fell into Sun Yixie’s plan to bring the tiger back to the mountain, so he led the four hall masters to leave the altar in a hurry. Before leaving, he shouted loudly: Ordered the Fire Lotus cultists around the altar to "chop Sun and Jiang into minced meat" on the stage.

He said so...but when it came to the actual implementation stage, it was not so smooth.

We have mentioned many times in the previous article that the minions of the Fire Lotus Sect are all a mob. They have no problem bullying the common people with their strength in numbers and armed with weapons, but you let them deal with people who know martial arts. People, that's quite embarrassing.

They had also seen Sun Yixie's surprise attack and Jiang Muchan's Qinggong skill just now. Without any other, these two moves alone were enough to scare away the Fire Lotus Sect's chief officials; But now...the leader and hall master are not here, and the one with the highest martial arts skills among them is Xi Guan. Who is willing to go up and die rashly?

But no matter what, the leader's order has been issued, and they have to go even if they are just showing off.

Ever since, such a funny scene occurred...

In the two minutes after Shi Xuanzi left, hundreds of Fire Lotus cultists around the altar Holding the weapon high, shouting and shouting, they approached the altar with teeth and claws, but after walking for a long time... they only advanced a few steps, and no one dared to climb up.

"Huh...what did I say?" Seeing this, Sun Yixie also smiled coldly. He had obviously guessed that this situation would happen, so he whispered to Jiang Muchan beside him. road.

"Brother Sun is really good at predicting things." Jiang Muchan, who couldn't laugh or cry at the scene in front of him, could only respond with a dry smile, and continued, "However, now that they are like this, let's go "Don't take it off."

"Huh?" Sun Yixie was stunned when he heard this, "No...didn't you just step on their heads and swish up? Now you are leading the way." Isn’t it going to be over if I just swish over them and escape?”

Jiang Muchan was also stunned: “Brother Sun, what did you say? I was able to come up like that just now?” We are unprepared, and now they are all staring at us with their weapons. If I just jump down like this, I am afraid that I will be stuck in a string in mid-air before my feet touch anything."

"What?" Sun Yixie's expression changed immediately, "Then why didn't you mention this when I mentioned this plan before?"

Jiang Muchan said : "Is this something unclear? Needless to say, I thought, Brother Sun, you had a quick way to get out of trouble."

Sun Yixie was also stupid now: "Oh! I I thought you could 'fly' me out because of how you came up, but it turns out you can't?"

At this point, they both figured out that they were one of them who didn't know how to plan. One person does not know Qing Gong, and they all think that the other person can easily do it in the field that they do not understand.things in one’s imagination.

An example that is easier for us modern people to understand is: when discussing cooperation, both parties thought that they were Party A and the other party was Party B. However, it was not until the actual work started that they realized at the same time that Party B was actually Party B. myself.

Tap-tat-tat-

While they were stunned, several Fire Lotus cultists finally ran up from the steps on one side of the altar.

This is not surprising. When hundreds of local gangsters get together, there will always be some who are not very smart or particularly courageous.

As for these people, I won’t mention their names because I can’t make them up. In short, they are also a few ruthless people. They are basically the masters who had their lives on their hands before joining the Fire Lotus Sect. There is also a little bit of kung fu on the body.

The state of mind of a person like this who has killed someone is very different from that of someone who has never killed anyone. This is called difficult once and easy twice.

No one dares to take part in the current situation, but these few people feel that it is an opportunity. As long as they can successfully kill these two troublemakers, they will be able to mess around in the future. Sir, right?

With this in mind, they rushed over with spears and steel knives.

What a pity, these guys are not very lucky... The person guarding this side of the stairs is Sun Yixie.

If it were Jiang Muchan here, it would be okay, because Xiao Jiang is a kind-hearted person. Even in this situation, he would not take people's lives easily. The so-called "sparing people" Just be merciful.

But Sun Yixie doesn’t care about this. You want to kill me, why should I be polite to you?

Wow——

The next second, the trident was seen thrusting into the ground, killing the minions who rushed up with their weapons. Sweeping it into two pieces is as simple as splitting several fruits in one go in "Fruit Ninja".

And because the positions of those who were struck were different, some were cut off from the waist and abdomen, some were cut off from the chest, and some had half of their heads cut off... so this scene , red, yellow, and white, spraying everywhere on and off the stage... That's scary.

When Brother Sun made this move, the crowd of Fire Lotus cultists and ordinary people who were watching were shocked.

Under the stage, there were also people who had seen Sun Yixie at the gate of the ruined temple a few days ago. As soon as they saw this scene, the gang started making noises and started spreading " There are rumors that this person is the descendant of Emperor Zhenwu, who is invulnerable to weapons and can cut people like clay."

This is great... no one dares to go on stage.

But this group of Fire Lotus cultists are not too stupid, and soon someone came up with a very good method - fire attack.

Is this altar made of wood? Even if it doesn't burn instantly, it's not difficult to burn it, right? Although we don't dare to attack, it is difficult for the opponent to kill them. If we use this fire to burn those two people on the stage, wouldn't it solve the problem without any bloodshed?

After discussing the countermeasures, the guys in the audience got busy., originally there were a lot of sesame oil, yellow paper, brazier, torches and other things prepared near the Dharma altar, but they were just in use now.

Not long after, the gangsters in the audience poured oil on the altar from all directions and quickly lit it on fire.

Although Sun Yixie and Jiang Muchan on the stage also knew that the situation was not good, they had nothing to do: just rush down, just the two of them, surrounded by hundreds of people, even if they They are a mob, and the swords and spears are constantly surrounding them. Their physical strength and internal strength cannot sustain them for long. They should not rush down. The fire has already started. Although the altar is not small, it is afraid that it will burn down. Before long, thick smoke enters the lungs, and it is the point of death.

And just when they were in a dilemma...

At the same moment, on a roof at the edge of the market entrance.

There were two figures standing there, looking leisurely at the black smoke gradually rising in the distance.

One of these two people was the old eunuch who "taught" Jiang Muchan that night, and the other was the one the old eunuch called "General Zhao Qi" middle-aged man.

"Eunuch Wei, why don't we... give them a hand?" Mr. Zhao looked in the direction of the altar and tentatively said to the old eunuch beside him.

"Huh?" When Eunuch Wei heard this, he glanced at General Zhao Qi and said slowly, "General Zhao, where did you start talking about this?" He paused. , "Not to mention that they may not be able to defeat the Fire Lotus Immortal, even if they can...it doesn't mean we owe them anything."

Zong Qi Zhao nodded and said solemnly: " Yes, with or without them, we would have to deal with the Fire Lotus Sect sooner or later, but if they really succeed in doing this today, it will save us a lot of effort..."

" Ha..." Eunuch Wei laughed when he heard this, "What Mr. Zhao is thinking in his heart is probably not 'they helped us', but 'they helped the people', right?"

Mr. Zhao? Flag didn't take the words.

Eunuch Wei also knew why he didn't answer, so he quickly continued: "We understand~ Mr. Zhao, you are a decent person. You have to say such ugly words from me, a slave." Tell me..." He said, tilted his head slightly, flicked a whisk in his hand onto his arm, and said eloquently, "Those of us who eat royal food must eventually use the word 'loyalty' First of all, as for the word 'righteousness', it's good to have it, but it doesn't matter if you don't have it..." He said, slowly turning around and looking directly at the other person, "You go out to help them now, even if it's just. Covering your face means exposing yourself in front of others... nothing will happen after that, but what if the Great Immortal Fire Lotus is not dead? Can you bear the consequences if you scare him?"

"What the father-in-law said is true... Zhao is out of touch." Zhao Zongqi really couldn't refute this.

Since he is a member of the public, between duty and chivalry, he naturally has to protect the former first, otherwise he will probably have to pay the price.

"Let's talk again..." After a breath, Eunuch Wei continued,"If they really all died here today, it was their own choice. Who told them to be 'heroes'?"

As soon as he finished saying this, General Zhao Qi had not yet There was a response, and suddenly...

On the empty road in the distance, there was the sound of horse hooves. If you follow the sound, you can see five fast horses galloping all the way from the direction of the city gate.

There are five horses, but there are only two people on the horses. One is Wen Yuzhai and the other is Laughing Wuji.

In the blink of an eye, the horses arrived near the market entrance and stopped suddenly outside the crowd.

Before the neighing of the horses was over, the flute in Wen Yuzhai's hand was already playing.

The music he played this time did not have a "melodious" artistic conception at all, but it was like the river flowing into the sea and the roaring waves destroying the mountains.

With the sound of the flute, the area within a hundred meters away was in chaos...

After hearing the sound of the flute, everyone around the altar They all seemed to have suddenly become seasick. They felt dizzy, staggering around, and some of them were in poor health. They sat on the ground on the spot.

"Haha..." Eunuch Wei who was standing on the roof smiled when he saw this scene; with his internal strength, he would not be affected by the sound of the flute, so he said He spoke as calmly as ever, "General Zhao, look, isn't there someone coming to save them?"

General Zhao was also standing very steadily, and his eyes were brighter than before. Feeling enlightened, he stared at Wen Yuzhai's back from afar and said: "If I'm not mistaken, this young man playing the flute should be Wen Yuzhai, who is known as the 'Thatched Cottage Young Master' in the world... I didn't expect them to be related to this person." The No. 1 figure is also related. It seems that Zhao has taken them lightly."

"Oh?" Eunuch Wei didn't seem to care, "This flute boy... is very good in the world. Is it great?"

"Uh..." Zhao Zongqi thought for a while and replied, "There is some talent, but compared to my father-in-law...it's not worth mentioning."

The two of them were chatting happily there, but Sun Yixie and Jiang Muchan on the stage were feeling uncomfortable.

Jiang Muchan's internal strength was already poor, and the internal injuries suffered by Eunuch Wei had not yet healed. At this moment, he was surrounded by thick smoke and had difficulty breathing. After being frightened by the sound of the flute, his whole body became numb. He fell down softly.

As for Sun Yixie, because of the five-year skill foundation gained by Tie Monk Yihuai and the magical skill of reversing the universe that he has practiced, his current condition is actually better than that of Jiang Muchan. , but that's all... With Brother Sun's Qinggong, it would be impossible for him to "fly" out with Jiang Muchan.

Just when the two of them were in crisis, suddenly! A figure flew up from a distance. After a few leaps and falls, it approached the altar. Then it stepped forward, flew straight up, and broke through the fire.

Treat himWhen they stood on the altar, Sun Yixie and Jiang Muchan saw clearly that the person who came... was none other than Xiao Wuji.

"Why are you here?" Sun Yixie blurted out this sentence when she saw him.

Xiao Wuji just smiled and said: "Heh... I'm here to save you."

"Are you so kind?" Jiang Muchan said with a face. Confuse.

"What's there to be suspicious of?" Xiao Wuji said, "If I want you to die, I can just watch from a distance. What are you doing here?"

He This is indeed reasonable. In addition, Sun Yixie has also heard the sound of Wen Yuzhai's flute, so after a few seconds of thinking, Sun Yixie roughly guessed who rescued Xiao Wuji from the thatched hut. , he followed closely and said: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up! Your butt is on fire!"

Xiao Wuji was amused by him, but he didn't talk to Sun Yi either. No matter how much you argue, the fire around you is indeed burning very fast.

The next second, Xiao Wuji took two steps forward, one hand in each hand, and grabbed the waists of Sun Yixie and Jiang Muchan from behind. Then he used Qinggong and jumped out of the altar. .

At this moment, since everyone in the audience was dizzy and lying down, their condition was worse than that of Sun Jiang and the others, so Xiao Wuji could just step on them and "fly" .

Not long after, Xiao Wuji brought Sun and Jiang to Wen Yuzhai, and threw them directly onto the backs of two empty horses.

Wen Yuzhai stopped playing the flute when they were still more than ten meters away from him. When the people came closer, he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Sun, Brother Jiang, you are polite."< /p>

"I'm not polite to you anymore..." After Sun Yixie mounted the horse, because the sound of the flute had stopped, he quickly regained his breath, so he grabbed the reins and said, "Let's go find Huang first. Brother, I know where he is ambushing, come with me!"

Before the other three answered, Sun Yixie had already shaken the reins and rode away.

When Wen Yuzhai, Xiao Wuji and Jiang Muchan saw this, they exchanged glances with each other and then followed suit.

Not long after, they rode their horses through the alley and entered the main road connecting the entrance to the market and the main altar of the Fire Lotus Sect. They happened to meet Huang Donglai who was running towards the market. .

"Eh? What's going on?" Huang Donglai was stunned when he saw the four people and five horses opposite.

"I don't know, but you can come up and talk about it first." Sun Yixie replied.

"Oh...ok." Huang Donglai hesitated for a moment, and then he came to his senses - at least at this moment, Xiao Wuji had no ill intentions towards them; besides, Wen Yuzhai was also present. , so Huang Donglai was relieved to mount his horse.

"By the way, where are Shi Xuanzi and his several hall masters?" Sun Yixie asked again when Huang Donglai got on his horse.

As soon as Huang Donglai sat down, he heard these words, and he replied proudly: "Ha! What do you think?"

"So they have all been beaten by you. Are you done?" Sun Yixie looked at him.You will know the answer.

"Not only was it done, but the ashes were also raised." Huang Donglai raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Okay, Brother Huang, you have the strength." Sun Yixie said.

"Hey~ It's all normal operations." Huang Donglai was ready to start blowing.

However, Wen Yuzhai interrupted him: "You two, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. We should wait until we leave the city to talk about anything we have to say."

Mr. Wen is still reliable. Of course, everyone agreed, so the five people quickly turned their horses and headed towards the city gate.

Eunuch Wei and Mr. Zhao, who had followed him all the way from the roof, stopped chasing him because they had already heard a key piece of news - Shi Xuanzi was dead.

"Ha...these boys are very capable. I didn't expect that they could really get rid of the Fire Lotus Immortal with just a few people and a few tricks and ambush." ​​Wei The father-in-law smiled so happily at this moment, "Mr. Zhao Qi... In this case, we have to step up the next few steps."

"Don't worry, father-in-law, Zhao will be here soon "Go ahead, none of the remnants of the Fire Lotus Sect can escape," Zhao Zongqi continued.

"It doesn't matter what the person is, you can deal with it however you want." Wei Gonggong said, "The important thing is... we must first send someone to 'manage' their main altar; what about the things inside... You don’t need our family to teach you which ones are important and which ones can be reported in a timely manner, right?”

Any Jin Yiwei can understand what he said, not to mention the general banner.

In other words... when a house is searched, the gold and silver found are fine and soft, and it is okay to let the person who handles them take away some of it, but "letters" and other things must be checked You have to be rigorous and check that there are no leaks... If anyone leaks, your house will be searched tomorrow.

"Zhao understands, let's do it now." After Zhao Zongqi finished speaking, he ran away like a ghost; this light skill was also as fast as wind and lightning. Compared with that Jiang Even if Mu Chan is afraid, she won't give in too much.

After he left, Eunuch Wei clasped his hands behind his back and once again looked in the direction in which the five young people were leaving, muttering in his mouth: "'The east is harmonious and the west is poisonous'... Hmm … Let’s just remember you.”
