"The king's envoy killed more than a dozen brothers" Lu Jian was heartbroken.
These elite believers are the elite of Jinling Province. Wouldn’t it be heartbreaking to see such a loss?
Wang Xianxiang also felt angry. He looked at the scholar's house next to him and said angrily, "How can these guards in his mother's court be so powerful?"
"The emperor, I am too I'm so afraid of death."
Swearing and cursing couldn't solve the problem. After thinking for a while, Wang Xianxiang said in a deep voice, "It seems that it will be difficult to capture the Zhu family boy alive."
"Hermit Wang, time But wait for no one, we have to get things done quickly, otherwise the officers and soldiers will come." Lu Jian was full of anxiety.
Wang Xianxiang looked ruthless and said, "Let the brothers find firewood and burn them inside."
"Yes"
Here In the countryside, it is not difficult to find firewood, and there are many in the surrounding farmers' homes.
And you don’t need too much firewood, you just need to set the house on fire. After all, the Xue Family Courtyard is a wooden structure.
Finding the two nearest farmers, the White Lotus cultists moved a lot of straw and firewood and placed them in key places outside the Xue family's house.
In addition to firewood, they also found tung oil to serve as kindling.
After getting ready, Wang Xianxiang gave an order, and the Bailian sect went into flames. Soon the Xue family residence was on fire every week.
After the flames climbed up, they began to ignite the houses near the wall, but the burning speed was slower.
"Pour more fuel, pour more fuel," Wang Xianxiang shouted.
At this moment, in the Xue family's courtyard, looking at the flames burning around them, those who could still move tried to extinguish the fire.
Some people are looking for water to splash, some are shooting with brooms, and some are using things to fan themselves
However, the fire is not a big threat now, but the thick smoke is unbearable and choking. The person keeps coughing out.
Everyone else was fine. When those injured people coughed, their wounds would immediately be affected, causing them to scream again and again.
Not even two or three minutes after the fire started, it was already very busy inside.
Fortunately, Zhu Jinghong kept calm and asked people to move the wounded to a leeward place, while also having people cover their mouths and noses with wet cloths.
Hearing the wails coming from the courtyard, Wang Xianxiang finally felt a little more comfortable, and then whispered, "My dead brothers, I will avenge you. Return to the Mother Goddess with peace of mind." ”
“Get ready to fire arrows, shoot them all”
“Yes”
Lu Jian quickly called to his men, summoned the archers to the front of the house, and lined them up. The formation prepared to fire a volley.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the screams inside were getting louder and louder. Wang Xianxiang felt it was time, so he ordered the arrows to be fired.
From the beginning to now, their arrows have been running out, and they have been used up after just five volleys.
With such a projectile, whether it can hit or not depends entirely on chance.
The reality is that these arrows are almost useless because everyone is hiding in the corner.
"Thirteenth Master, I will protect you to break out of the encirclement." Hou Jing looked resolute.
Zhu Jinghong said sadly, "What happened today is all because of my insistence on my own way, which has caused you all to suffer like this." The huge risk of something happening, even if you are unlucky once ten thousand times, it will be an unbearable weight on you.
Hou Jing hurriedly said, "Thirteenth Master must not blame himself. All these ministers are incompetent."
Before he could finish his words, Zhu Jinghong clenched his sword and said, "If today, If we can escape, we will be brothers of life and death, and we will never be incompatible with each other no matter how rich or powerful we are in the future."
What Zhu Jinghong said was true, and it was what he said from the bottom of his heart.
Having never experienced life and death, I cannot say that I am so solemn and firm.
At this moment of life and death, the dignified royal heir is willing to be worthy of all brothers and never be incompetent. Everyone present is young and easily infected by Zhu Jinghong.
"I swear to follow the Thirteenth Master to the death and never fail." Hou Jing knelt down on one knee.
About to face the most brutal fight, all the guards were filled with enthusiasm, and they all knelt down and said, "Swear to follow the Thirteenth Master to the death and never let him down."
Zhu Jinghong was also at this moment. His blood was boiling, and a surge of heroism arose in his heart. He said, "Brothers, follow me and fight out."
After saying that, Zhu Jinghong turned around and walked outside. He planned to give it another try, even if he was about to die. He did not want to be burned to death.
They walked out of the inner courtyard, but before they reached the front yard, they heard shouts from outside.
"Kill the thief, Mr. Xue family will be rewarded heavily"
"Kill the thief, you will be rewarded heavily"
The voice came faintly, But Hou Jing was ecstatic.
"Thirteenth Master, it's Wang Jie who Yuxin and the others"
Zhang Lin was equally excited and said, "They are here"
Since these two people left, until now After more than half an hour, I finally found help.
We really can’t blame Wang Jie and the two for procrastinating. It is not an easy task to find the hidden farmers and mobilize them.
"The Xue family master said that there will be a heavy reward for killing the thieves, including money and land."
"Those people are not Japanese pirates, they are just thieves from other places. There is no need to be afraid."< /p>
"There are not many of these thieves, and the officers and soldiers are coming soon. If we don't take action, the family fortune that will be hard to earn in a few lifetimes will be lost."
Wang Jie and Lu Yuxin continued Shouting, inspiring the courage of the young people.
They found more than two hundred young men. These people were holding hoes and long shovels, and they were really impressive when they marched together.
"Silver and land can be obtained by killing thieves. Come on, everyone."
There must be brave men under heavy rewards. These young and strong people are real brave men, and they are also brave. been effectively organized.
"Who are these people?" Wang Xianxiang was a little shocked.
"They seem to be some farmers," Lu Jian replied.
"They don't want their lives"
After being surprised, Wang Xianxiang immediately ordered "stop them and kill them"
It doesn't matter that these people are seeking death, but they must not To thwart his plan to kill "Zhu", he killed as many as he came.
Dozens of White Lotus cultists held knives and rushed towards the young men. Although there were fewer people, they had the advantage of weapons.
"Throw"
Wang Jie roared, and the young men threw the stones in their hands with all their strength. Hundreds of stones flew towards the White Lotus Sect, causing everyone in the White Lotus Sect to run away holding their heads.
"Kill them, beat them to death" Wang Jie rushed forward.
Lu Yuxin then shouted, "Kill the thief, earn a fortune, come on"
Soon the two sides came into contact with each other, but the battle situation was simply unwatchable.
Although the White Lotus Sect has a small number of people, there are still more than a hundred people. They cooperate with each other tacitly and use weapons to gain the upper hand. They can defeat the young men in a direct attack.
This is not to be blamed on the young men. They usually only farm, so how can they fight like dead soldiers?
As long as they see blood, these people will collapse when their blood is pumped up, and of course they will disperse in a rush wrapped in fear.
Of course, there were some really ruthless people among them, who killed and injured more than a dozen people under the wild dance of hoes and shovels.
At this moment, someone shouted, "The officers and soldiers are coming, the officers and soldiers are coming."
Looking in the direction of the sound, Wang Jie saw in the distance , there were cavalry approaching quickly, and the few people in front were carrying the banner of the Ming Army.
At this moment, Wang Xianxiang was frightened.
He couldn't figure out why the imperial army came so quickly. From the time they took action until now, it had only been an hour at most.
The cavalry were very fast. In only a few seconds, they came within a hundred meters. A few breaths later, a hail of arrows struck.
The young men have fled, and everyone in the White Lotus Sect has been shot into hedgehogs, crying for their parents and running away in all directions.
The first cavalry to arrive were more than 40 people from Jinling Qianhu Station. They relied on continuous crossbow fire to make the White Lotus cultists unable to resist.
