215. The manor fell

After riding on the current of Longquan River, the speed of the ferry is faster than that of a horse.

The boating skills Lan En acquired from Bernie were not even enough, because the Oriden hunters who had been living on the lake had no experience in traveling in such a river at all.

It is still Kotaro among his subordinates. Because he has lived near Longquan River for generations, he has practiced the craft of rapid boating.

He avoided the shoals and strange rocks along the way with ease.

According to him, before the situation in Ashina Country was not so bad, his family also had a ferry.

However, as the blockade of Ashina by the imperial government became more and more severe, the flow of people crossing the river became increasingly sparse, and it was gradually no longer possible to support the family's expenses.

A group of people were drifting in Longquan River. The sky was getting darker and everyone’s hearts were getting heavier and heavier.

Because as the sun's light gradually fades, the direction of Pingtian Village emits a warm orange-red light from the ground to the sky.

In this era, this can only represent one situation: a large-scale fire

Kotaro's movements of holding the oar suddenly became more violent.

He has not yet married, and only one mother still lives in the castle town of Pingtianzhuang. If something happens

The ferry will soon approach Pingtianzhuang.

When passing by a raised shoal in the center of the river, Lan En's ears swayed slightly, and then he frowned and looked there.

But on the shoal in the center of the river, there was only an old jar that was abandoned by someone and washed up by the current.

"Did you hear anything?"

Lan En asked the Rongrants around him.

The person in question frowned and tried to get closer to Lan En.

"What did you say?"

The witcher opened his mouth, then shook his head.

Just now, he seemed to hear a strange and gentle voice calling him over to do some business.

The water flow in this section of Longquan River is fast and strong, and the sound is so rumbling that it can even cover the words of people around you.

Even a demon hunter's hearing would not be able to pick up the sound on the shoal more than ten meters away in such a noisy environment.

Is it a supernatural power similar to magic?

Lan En is not sure, but he does not dare to underestimate it either.

Although so far, he has only seen humans' in-depth exploration of martial arts in this world. He had never seen many supernatural phenomena.

But after passing through Aria's world, he would not easily conclude that it did not exist.

"No, I heard wrong, get ready to go ashore."

After calming the somewhat panicked Ronin group, Lan increased his tone and issued the order.

Not far away, the gate of Pingtian Manor when we came out in the morning now has no guards.

Many ferries are crowded on the beach next to the wooden bridge at the entrance.

In the darkness, there were faint light spots of torches flickering.

It’s going to rain tonight, and sometimes there will be a sudden flash of thunder in the sky, briefly illuminating the world.

The demon hunter's cat eyes glimpsed the scene at the gate at this moment.

The gate is still strong and there are no signs of damage, and there are no blood stains or knife marks from the combatants fighting here.

The gate of Pingtianzhuang was unprotected from these intruders from the beginning

When the organizational system is not strict enough, as long as the person in charge of the defense system slightly changes the shift time, It can create a short gap.

In other words, someone who can create such a gap has a high status in Hirata Village. I just don’t know who was present when I first went to see Yuzi.

Now most of the armed forces in Zhuangzi are following the main force of Ashina to the frontal battlefield against the inner government army.

And if the Hirata family falls again at this moment, Lan En's mouth twitches.

It is rare in the world for an army to win despite being attacked from both sides.

Once Ashina loses and lets the inner government march in, it will not be unusual to be killed by the inner government army.

Based on his limited knowledge during this period, Lan En made some speculations about possible future situations. But none of them are optimistic.

If this unoptimistic scenario does not become a reality, the Hirata family must hold on.

"Kotaro, don't stop. Just rush to the beach." Lan En said generously He patted Kotaro's shoulder with his palm.

"There are only five or six people guarding the door, kill them in the shortest time"

"Oh" n

The ronin muster up their courage and hurry up arms. Their eyes already revealed the ferocity of being ready to fight.

The wooden bottom of the ferry slid onto the muddy beach, making a Carrara sound as it collided with the gravel.

The six bandits occupying the gate of Pingtian Village were complaining about not having the chance to go to the village and plunder.

But then, the person standing near the door suddenly had his head jerked back as if he had been punched.

Then the body lost its ability to balance and adjust. The muscles suddenly tightened and the board straightened, then fell backwards.

His brain had been pierced by the projectiles projected from Lan En's arm armor just now.

The surrounding bandits did not even have time to react.

Because the visibility is too low for ordinary people, this kind of attack reaction is often seen on the battlefield when being shot directly by a heavy blunt weapon.

But now there are no outsiders around, so where are the heavy blunt weapons?

Pictures that violate common sense can temporarily confuse people's brains.

Although it was only a few seconds, it was still enough for Kotaro to stabilize the boat on the beach.

When the bandits reacted, they were ready to shout an enemy attack into the manor, but the wolf-like rogues led by Lan En, has rushed directly from the beach to the wooden bridge

"Nishiuchi"

Both sides are veterans skilled in fighting, and they used very ferocious roars as a shock as soon as they met.

Then the cold blades slashed at each other, or collided with the blades, causing sparks to appear. Or go directly into the meat and sprinkle blood.

Lan En arranged the candidates for the Ronin assault on the ship, as well as their opponents.

So as soon as they went into battle, the two spearmen directly relied on the length and agility of their spears to stab to death two bandits holding two-handed axes.

A spear thrust is faster than a katana slash, let alone a two-handed axe.

The two bandits had not swung their axes even half a circle, and there was already a direct passage between their bellies and their backs.

The rest is almost the same. In order to avoid being noticed by the enemies in the manor, Lan En tried his best to shorten the combat time to the shortest possible time.

He used his observation skills to set up an opponent for each Ronin that could finish as quickly as possible.

So the Ronin group, whose numbers were not that big apart, actually ended the attack on the bandits at the gate within five seconds of the start of the battle.

Everything was going according to plan, Lan En didn't even look behind him.

His palm completely grasped the neck of a bandit, and with a click, the other person collapsed completely.

Lan En pushed the closed door of the flat farm slightly and found that the door bolt had been locked from the inside.

With his extraordinary hearing, the sounds in the manor were still noisy.

The clash of swords, the ignition of muskets, and the fighting and shouting

He breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that at least he did not rush back until it was irreversible.

Just when Lan En was thinking about how to lead people into the manor, the wanderers on the wooden bridge suddenly came over to report.

"Sir, we found a ninja who still has breath."

The "ninja" demon hunter frowned and said, "Take me to have a look."
