Among the buildings in the streets and alleys that were being besieged, a middle-aged woman named Liu Niang, with disheveled hair, scolded her mother. Without hesitation, she stepped on the edge of the building in the back alley like a whack-a-mole to find the sneak attacker.
With all his strength, he hit his head with a stick and fell over, drowning in the dumped garbage and filth.
But just like the one who fell, there were two or more people, jumping and climbing from the side building in the same way, approaching again. Then, they were stabbed by a long pole in Liu Niang's hand.
One of them fell into the air due to loss of balance, but the others successfully climbed up the windows and railings.
At this time, Pingting, who was crouching and hugging her trembling little Yao for comfort, gritted her teeth and struggled to get up and waved a short thorn; it suddenly pierced a human face behind the wall panel, causing a shrill scream;
Then he suddenly pushed the window and hit another person in the face, causing foam and teeth to fly and he fell down.
However, another body was carried up the bamboo ladder on the opposite roof. Under the combined force of two ghost-faced warriors, it smashed through the tile roof and threw it on top of the pavilion here. Then someone was eager to try.
Stepping on it, the unsteady bamboo ladder jumped over and rolled down into the room with a crash and covered in rubble.
But when the man shook his head and tried to get up in the smoke and dust; but he could not avoid the stick that Liu Niang knocked down, and could only barely turn his head and was hit on the shoulder. He let out a muffled groan but failed to fall.
Instinctively, she grabbed Liu Niang's stick; suddenly she screamed loudly;
But Pingting, who unexpectedly turned to the blind spot of his vision, immediately stabbed the man's neck and jaw with a short thorn, and immediately fell to the ground without a sound, spurting out blood. And the blind Ayun took advantage of the situation to move from the side.
Being frightened again, Xiao Yao could only hold his head and crouch defensively, and was dragged inside to a relatively safe place.
But Liu Niang, who gave up the stick at this time, picked up the deceased's horizontal knife without hesitation, chopped it with her backhand on the palm of the other hand that was climbing up her arm, and then the two pieces of her body slid down together with her hand.
At the same time, Pingting smashed the companion who was pushing him down and rolled into a ball; Pingting, who had pulled out the thorn again, quickly raised it with quick eyesight and hands.
In the middle, another attacker came over the bamboo ladder, and suddenly screamed and fell on his side; then Liu Niang grabbed a lamp that was half filled with oil, and threw it out through the smashed window.
It passed through the sky and was right in the opposite building, next to the two ghost-faced warriors who were responsible for fixing the bamboo ladder;
Suddenly, the two people were on fire very close by, and they hurriedly slapped and rolled, igniting all kinds of debris on the other side of the building. At the same time, Liu Niang took advantage of this opportunity to raise the long pole again and say hello.
Pingting worked together to push the bamboo ladder out that had lost its grip and was stuck in the roof.
As the bamboo ladder crashed down, there were screams and whines, and as the fire on the opposite roof grew bigger and bigger, people rushed to jump down to escape; for a while, the back alley where the building was located was destroyed.
The crisis of a sneak attack was actually resolved again by these women.
However, the fierce fighting and fierce fighting in the pavilion ahead were still in full swing. Although he broke into the pavilion, he was shot, chopped down, and stabbed to death in the stairway, cupboards, tables and chairs. The corpses of the ghost-faced warriors were already lying everywhere.
The hall was covered with carpets. But the ghost-faced warriors who besieged this place still had no intention of giving up.
However, Murong Wu, Chen Wentai and others who were guarding it had already shot all the arrows and chopped off the swords in their hands; even the only man who had followed the mark under the guidance of Liu Niang and came to join them had also
Most of them were dead or injured, and the rest were all wounded and exhausted.
In fact, the unreasonable disaster they are encountering now is because this team, called backup, was brought to the door by more than a dozen men who were treated as bait to catch a big fish in a long-term way. For this reason, the other party
It seems that they have given up suppressing riots and putting out fires in various parts of the ghost city, and are trying their best to capture them alive.
Yes, it was to capture them alive; otherwise, they might not have been able to hold on until now. However, at this moment, neither Murong Wu nor Chen Wentai could take care of the rear compartment where the women were hiding, separated by a wall.
, the exclamations and screams that occurred were mixed with screams and screams.
Chen Wentai, who was described as bleak, looked like a bloody man. He grabbed a long-handled sword and blocked the stairway opening left on the upper floor. He only felt that the strength and perception of his body were slowly increasing with the wounds on his inner armor.
The slowly passing warmth dissipated little by little; and the scene in front of me also became intermittent blurry.
Despite this, he was still muttering to himself towards the unknown existence in the air;
"Hold on..."
"As long as we hold on for a while, our backup will come."
"The Jinwu Guards and Xantai will definitely not turn a blind eye to us and others."
Behind him, leaning on a half-cut spear, ready to support at any time, was Murong Wu, who was leaning against the wall with a large stain of blood. He didn't even have the strength to respond to him; only the eyes that he tried to open and the rising and falling of his chest could prove that.
Signs that he continues to live.
As for the stairways and railings that were piled up with various debris to serve as obstacles and fortifications, the few remaining live-in officials and officials had almost broken arms and legs, and almost all lost their ability to move;
We relied on mutual support and encouragement to avoid collapse on the spot.
However, after such an extremely torturous period of time, there was still no sign of backup or reinforcements; a certain invisible aura of despair and decadence slowly spread among them. They even made an appointment.
Help each other to avoid falling into the hands of thieves.
Therefore, when blind Ayun dragged Xiaoyao back to the front hall on the second floor, he was faced with such an atmosphere of sadness and determination. But the people outside started shouting again, threatening and intimidating, if
If they don't come out, they will be captured, and they will have to be set on fire.
However, after hearing this, Blind Ayun's scarred face showed a certain expression of relief and tranquility. Because, she suddenly felt that this result was not bad for herself; although there had been more
I had so many expectations, but it’s still a little regretful to have them dashed.
Immediately, as if she had spent all her life's tenderness and emotions, she hugged Xiaoyao tightly and whispered in her ear: "I have a way. As long as you endure it, you won't have to suffer anymore in the other world."
The next moment, as a kind of warning and announcement, the strong smell of kerosene began to slowly come in from the street outside; through the broken doors and windows, you could see the large barrels of refined kerosene that had been opened in the street.
;Ready to splash and dump on the building.
"Wait a minute..."
Chen Wentai, who was in the middle, also opened his mouth to say something, thinking that it would be a good idea to delay for a moment; but he found that his throat was so hoarse that he could not speak loudly. Seeing those ghost city warriors using various methods one after another,
After using the utensil to scoop up the fire oil, he would step forward and splash it.
The next moment, a voice that rang through the sky echoed in the zenith above this ghost market, overwhelming all the noise in an instant: "Follow the way of heaven, transform the two rituals, generate yin and yang, turn the universe, and respond."
"Pardon Order. Heaven and earth are boundless and the universe borrows the law," (from the "Taiyi Awakening Sins, Killing Demons, and Protecting the Body" written in the Southern and Northern Dynasties)
In an instant, the upper floors of several buildings that were burning nearby suddenly collapsed with a roar; and then at the moment when they were scattered and falling, a long fire dragon suddenly turned and rose up, suddenly passing through the air.
A hundred steps away; and the unexpected fall hit the besieging ghost city warriors.
In an instant, it was like a cloud of fire exploded out of thin air, burning the crowd inside it to a crisp; then, in the midst of large sheets of screaming and rolling struggle, it ignited the overthrown flames of the fleeing crowd.
The various utensils poked and discarded with kerosene instantly contaminated more bodies.
As a result, the siege on this street corner building seemed to collapse in the blink of an eye, and the army was completely defeated.
