The situation is critical and there is no need to delay.
If you are really trapped in a tight siege and are trapped layer by layer by Taoist gates, Shimen gates, and Xingying formations, you will not be able to escape even with wings.
Luo Changqing naturally saw something was wrong, and immediately shouted to the "Four Lowly Friends": "Old friends! Don't be too lazy to fight, it's more important to save people!"
"Nanshi Butcher" Zheng Liulang, "White Camel Old Monster" Du Shazhou, and "Caibo Sanshu" Su Juanjuan all responded and immediately moved closer to the "male and female hegemons".
"Elm-headed" Liu Carpenter was not slow in his movements. He left behind Tong Chunxi and Gongsun Xuantong in the blink of an eye and ran to the side of "Female Ba Lin Gu Yue". Only after a few breaths did he seem to remember something and returned calmly.
One sentence: "Oh."
Seeing the six people approaching quickly, Yang Chaoxi hurriedly wiped away her tears. She immediately leaned down, slowly lifted the unconscious Liu Xiaomu up, and carried her on her back. He held her round buttocks with one hand, and held the sword box with the other hand.
Li Xiaoman, who was guarding the front, said: "Xiaoman, we are under heavy siege right now, is there any way to escape?"
Xiaoman frowned tightly, waving his flail and short stick, blocking all Ke Shenxing's aggressive attacks, and then said: "Don't worry, young master! Protector Luo and the others have prepared a 'killing weapon'. If they can't fight hard, they will use
This method breaks the situation..."
Before Xiao Man finished speaking, he heard Luo Changqing shout: "Everyone! Wear armor!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the six people rushed out at the same time, forcing the Taoist priests, monks and nuns several feet away; then they violently retreated back, each taking out a white lotus robe from their arms, shaking it open and putting it on, like a pair of alert animals.
Egret.
After Xiaoman put on the white lotus robe, he pulled out a neatly folded piece of white cloth from under the skirt. He waved it and spread it, which was two feet square. He draped it on Yang Chaoxi and Liu Xiaomu, and slapped Yang Chaoxi on the chest.
Knot to prevent falling off.
Just when Yang Zhaoxi didn't understand why, the Taoist priests, monks and nuns who had been forced away ran up again, each with their weapons in hand, blocking them in Gaixin.
Farther away, there are murderous soldiers, guards, private soldiers, rangers and the like. Under the shouts of Ge Shuyao, Tian Chengsi, Li Miaolan and others, brandishing long soldiers and short swords, they surrounded them from all sides.
The eight people were surrounded with swords and there was no way around them.
When Luo Changqing saw this, he shouted: "Old friends, get ready to show off your special moves!"
While talking, Luo Changqing and Xiaoman were already standing close to Liu Xiaomu. Zheng Liulang, Du Shazhou, Su Juanjuan, and Liu Carpenter, the "four low-ranking friends", each occupied the four directions, attacking and defending accordingly, forming a "small army".
"Four Elephant Formation" came to block attacks from all sides.
Gongsun Xuantong led several veteran Taoists and temple masters to guard the east and north sides. Their long swords and magical weapons echoed each other, forming an airtight line of defense. Abbot Lingche led a group of monks and nuns to block the way.
On the west and south sides, Zen staffs, copper sticks, flesh palms, and swords flew together, all doing their part.
Tian Chengsi, the king of Yanmen County, was the first to shout: "The monsters inside! Stop resisting! I will tell my brothers to strike faster and give you a good time! Hahaha!"
Brother Shu Yao, the king of Xiping County, also said in a persuasive way: "You are all masters in the hidden world! Instead of hitting stones with eggs, why not throw them into our camp in Luocheng, and you can make up for your mistakes and make meritorious deeds..."
"Hmph! What a shame! You must first defeat my dog-killing knife."
"Nanshi Butcher" Zheng Liulang's voice was like a bell, and his refutation made everyone's ears buzz. As he spoke, he took off a butcher knife from his waist, "There is also this 'Cattle-Exerting Knife', if you have the guts,
Come try it!”
Abbot Lingche saw that this man was extremely ferocious. If he attacked forcefully, even if he could win, he would lose his men. He thought for a moment and then said: "Since these donors are here to save people, if we can persuade the two bandits to take the sword box
Stay, I will release the door and wish to open the net and let you leave!"
Gongsun Xuandong and others on the opposite side heard this and felt that this method was feasible. They shouted: "People leave! Swords stay! Don't be ignorant of current affairs!"
Zheng Liulang was about to sneer a few more words when he heard Luo Changqing roar: "Everyone! Enlarge your moves!"
After everyone heard this, they were all suspicious. Su Juanjuan first took out a light gauze bag from her bulging arms. The bag was snow-white, and it was hard to tell what was inside. She didn't know what it contained. When she first took it out, it was not as big as Cuju.
Big and small. As she shook her arm, the light bag suddenly expanded a lot, covering most of her body.
The other three followed the same example, taking out light bags one by one from various parts of their bodies. Shaking them up, they shook out many flying catkins like snowflakes, which were slowly scattered by the passing wind.
.
Just when everyone looked stunned and didn't know why, they saw the "four cheap friends" take out the fire sticks from their arms, hit them with ease, and threw them at the large balls of flying catkins. Silently, the
A few balls of milky white flying catkins have turned into golden flames!
The flames became more and more intense, and within a few breaths, they expanded from a small clump into a raging flame. Following the direction of the wind, the flames drifted straight to the west, immediately igniting the beards of Zen masters such as Kuzhu, Lingzhen, and Huicong, and shot up several feet high.
There were flames; Kuzhu and the others hurriedly dodged and immediately made way for a gap.
The "four cheap friends" kept taking out a few more light bags one after another and throwing them to the southeast; several burning huozhezi followed closely behind and landed on the light bags——
"Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly..."
Slight explosions sounded one after another, and the flying catkins in the bag exploded into a rain of fire that filled the sky and fell to everyone. Some of them burned up in the air and fell between the heads and faces, which was just a false alarm. Some of them burned their heads and hair.
When it was ignited, from a distance, it looked like a long-legged torch. The people burned so hard that they screamed repeatedly, and soon they made several "pops" and jumped into the distance one after another...
In an instant, the offensive and defensive situation on the bank of the canal suddenly changed. The people surrounded by flying fire and flowing catkins, some jumped, some scurried, some shouted, and they were already in a mess. They couldn't care less about the eight people who were surrounded in Gaixin.
A man's sword?
Yang Zhaoxi, Liu Xiaomu, dressed in white cloth, Li Xiaoman, and Luo Changqing were dressed in white clothes, and were protected by the "Four Lowly Friends". The eight people took advantage of the cover of the sky and the rain of fire, and ran wildly to the west, barely encountering them.
What kind of obstruction? Running left and right, as if in a deserted place.
Just when the eight people broke out of the siege and thought they could take a breather, they saw several Donggong guards a few feet away leading the "Moon Formation", holding an iron skin and rattan armor shield in one hand and a stainless steel repeating crossbow in the other, intercepting them.
Halfway to the canal bank.
Prince Li Shi, under the protection of "White Mountain Man" Li Changyuan, hid at the bottom of the formation and said in a calm tone: "The methods of these heroes are indeed amazing! But if I want to break through my 'Yan Yue Formation', I am afraid there will be casualties.
How about we each take a step back, you lay down your sword, and we let you go?"
Luo Changqing twisted his eyebrows and uttered two words decisively: "Let's move!"
As soon as the words came out, the "four lowly friends" each took out their light bags and threw them at the prince Li Shi. The indispensable fire breakers naturally followed him one after another.
However, they saw that the "Yan Yue Formation" suddenly changed. Seven or eight Donggong Guards held their iron and rattan armor shields high and ran towards the bottom of the formation, forming a huge arc-shaped shield wall.
He formed a shield wall and huddled back. The Vajra Repeater in his hand also fired through the gaps in the corners of the rattan shield at the "Four Lowly Friends".
The flying fire is silent, the crossbow arrows are clanging.
The "four cheap friends" tried their best to deflect the rain of arrows. The "Flying Fire Flowing Catkins" that exploded from the light bags only stayed on the vine shield for a moment before they were all burned up.
Not even a scorch mark was left.
The Dong Palace Guards, who were hiding behind the shield wall, decisively took arrows from the quiver behind their backs and loaded them into the stainless steel repeating crossbow. Hearing Luo Changqing, Li Xiaoman's heart tightened.
But the expressions of the "Four Lowly Friends" changed drastically.
"Three Girls of Colorful Silk" Su Juanjuan's voice was slightly cold: "Brother Luo! We have finished using the 'Flying Fire Flowing Catkins'. If we want to break the formation, we have to fight hard!"
"Nanshi Butcher" Zheng Liulang said resolutely: "Brother Luo, the four of us will build a formation in front of us, open a gap, and drag down these imperial eagle dogs! You don't need to pay attention to us, just protect the 'male and female hegemons' to escape.
Get out of town!"
Luo Changqing frowned and was about to reply when he suddenly heard a weak but unmistakable female voice coming from Yang Chaoxi's back: "Little Taoist priest, give the sword... give it to them! Survival is important."
Yang Chaoxi was unwilling to give up, but suddenly he saw his master, Chang Yuan Zhenren, performing a strange technique next to Prince Li Shi in the distance.
At first glance, it looks like the "Three Mountains Technique". The three middle fingers are curled into a fist. However, the thumb and little finger are not tightly attached to each other. Instead, they are separated to both sides, forming an inverted "eight" shape.
This technique was actually the first technique taught to him by Master Changyuan Zhenren on that winter day a few years ago under the ancient trees in the back mountain of Shangqing Temple. Because of his clumsy hands, he kneaded the "Three Mountains Technique" into
Such an appearance was once ridiculed by fellow disciples in Guanzhong as the "Sheep Head Technique".
Yang Chaoxi's thoughts flashed through his mind, and he immediately understood that his master had already seen through the identity of "Lin Duyang" and recognized him. The reason why he made a move instead of verbally recognizing him was because he understood his intention and deliberately helped him cover it up.
.
Without any further hesitation, he suddenly raised his left arm holding the sword box and threw the "Water Sword" that he had worked so hard to win towards Master Changyuan.
The Taoist priests, monks, nuns, soldiers, guards, etc. who were not affected by the "flying fire flakes" behind him had already formed a group and were chasing after him.
Seeing the yellow sword box being thrown out by Yang Chaoxi, everyone screamed in surprise. When the sword box fell firmly into Li Changyuan's hand, all kinds of noises started to ring out——
"The sword has been obtained by Li Changyuan! Everyone, stop him quickly, don't let him take it for himself!"
"Bitch thief! I'm so angry! How can I snatch the divine sword if it falls into the hands of His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Why are you so anxious! Didn't His Highness the Prince say that he wants to use this sword as a 'lucky prize' to be awarded to the winner of the 'Shendu Martial Arts Tournament'? Let's go and see the excitement then!"
"This is bad. My lord is determined to win this 'Sword Like Water'. Who would have thought that today he missed it, and will be furious when he gets back... We must be careful!"
"Amitabha! How can this be unreasonable! I, Shimen, can take down two bandits with one sword. There is no suspense. It's all because of these Taoist priests and Qiu Ba's messing up... Humph!"
"Master, you have such a good relationship with Master Chang Yuan. If you can give your disciples a chance to hold the 'Sword Like Water' and play with it, you will have no regrets in this life! Hehe!"
"What a wonderful idea! The general hasn't touched it yet? When will he get your melon seeds..."
"What did you say?! I'll beat you up!"
"..."
The night is getting dark, and the dusk drums are sounding.
But he said that Li Changyuan took the "Rushui Sword" sword box and immediately presented it to Prince Li Shi.
Prince Li Shi suppressed the excitement in his heart, waved his silk sleeves, and the East Palace Guards immediately retreated to both sides, leaving a passage about ten feet wide.
Yang Chaoxi, Luo Changqing and others did not dare to delay at all. They were immediately on full alert, holding their swords in front of them, and ran out of the passage without any danger. They immediately stepped on the mud and water, walked through the walls and passed the square, and after a short circle, they finally
Go up to the east gate and prepare to escape from the city.
It's just that the eight people have different professions and different attires. They look out of place together in one place. And they are walking in groups on Shangdongmen Street, so it's hard not to attract attention.
When they were about a hundred steps away from the upper east gate, they saw dozens of bad guards mixed with the city gate guards, checking people who were leaving the city one by one.
Anyone who hesitates to speak or answers questions that are not what he wants will be taken aside and his hands and feet tied up with ropes. He will wait until the night ban begins and then be taken back to the nearby Wuhou Pu for more detailed questioning.
At this moment, if you want to force your way out of the city, you're probably going to be in a lot of trouble. Even if you can get rid of the bad guards who bully the weak and fear the strong, and avoid the cold arrows of the guards on the tower above the city gate, there are still thousands of soldiers in the Luocheng camp outside the east gate.
Once we hear the news and leave the camp, we will be absolutely sure to capture them.
Thinking of this, the eight people stopped in unison and hesitated.
