A knife in love

Chapter 1070

Ji Dingzhong heard the thin man's vicious words, he felt annoyed, sneered, and said: "Just because of you number one hundred and ten, you also want to get rid of us? Just now, the five or six hundred Japanese pirates also had the same wishful thinking as you. In the end, more than a hundred corpses were abandoned and fled. Do you want to repeat the same mistakes?"

The skinny man snorted and said: "When you are about to die, you still want to struggle to your death. My surname is Ji, I have to deal with you well today, lest you bastard think we are worthless."

After he finished speaking, he raised his right hand into the air.More than 100 cavalry put away their swords and sheathed them, took out their bows and set up their arrows, aiming at Li Qiufeng, Ji Dingzhong and others standing in front of the main hall.

At this time, the momentum of the fire beside the wall on the left side of the courtyard had weakened, and the surrounding area immediately dimmed.The heavy snow had stopped for the first time, and the gust of wind had subsided for a while. Against the background of the snowy ground, the flashing arrows were even more frightening and disturbing.

At this time, Yin Butou, Feng Shiye and others have already retreated into the hall with Tolerance.On the stone steps in front of the hall, only Li Qiufeng, Ji Dingzhong, Huang Chong, Huang Xu and the nuns of Kule Nunnery remained.Everyone watched Ruyang Guard's cavalry bend their bows and set up arrows, and they were about to shoot at everyone when Xu Chengzong gave an order, and they were a little terrified.Ji Dingzhong took a step back quietly, planning to flee back to the hall first if the enemy shoots an arrow.

Xu Chengzong did not give the order to attack, his eyes turned around the faces of the people, and finally fell on Li Qiufeng's face.I saw Xu Chengzong smiled slightly and said: "Lord Li, why do you bother to stand with these traitors? You might as well listen to my words, it is not too late to turn to the light and fight back. As long as you kill these traitors , Anti-thief, I will report the truth to Master Lin, and make sure that Master Li is not only innocent, but also meritorious."

Li Qiufeng didn't answer.He looked past Xu Chengzong and the others, and kept looking outside the temple.Perhaps it was because the Ruyang Guard cavalry who had guarded outside the temple had all bypassed the Chenghuang Temple to hunt down the escaped Japanese pirates. There were no torches soaring to the sky outside the temple, and the western sky was already dark.Most of the scattered corpses in the courtyard were covered with snow, and were trampled badly by war horses.Standing on the stone steps and looking forward, the firelight reflected on the snow, emitting a faint light.

Seeing that Li Qiufeng was silent, Xu Chengzong was about to say something more, but he heard the officer on his right in armor said in a rough voice: "Fifth brother is right, it's at this juncture, why are you still talking to these traitors?" With the order of the eldest brother, we shot them all to death. Then we burned down the Chenghuang Temple, seized Fengmen Village, and killed all the men, women, and children in the village. Our Xu family’s blood feud for hundreds of years is in the hands of our brothers It's over. The ancestors have spirits underground, but they are also full of joy."

This person hadn't finished speaking, when someone in the hall suddenly sneered, and then said in a sullen voice: "Although your plan is good, it may not be what you want!"

As soon as the voice fell, there was only a sharp sound, and a feathered arrow shot straight out from the hall with a "swish".

Xu Chengzong never expected that someone in the hall would dare to attack with arrows, and he was terrified.The officer on the right side of him swung his saber across, knocked his legs on the stirrups, and the horse under his crotch leaped forward, blocking himself in front of Xu Chengzong.

I saw a feathered arrow flying out of the main hall, but it didn't fly towards Xu Chengzong and the others, but passed a few feet above the heads of the people in the courtyard, and flew straight to the temple gate.

Xu Chengzong and others all thought that the strength of this man's archery was astonishing, but his accuracy was too far off.Presumably it was shot by a member of the Nie family or a Tolerance police officer who fled into the palace, it made people laugh out loud for no reason.

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled.He heard the voice of the person speaking quite familiarly, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.It's just that he believes in his heart that this person will definitely not be Mrs. Nie, let alone Yin Butou, Master Feng and others.

Just when everyone was surprised, they saw that feathered arrow was flying across the courtyard as quickly as a shooting star, and with a "poof", it hit a lantern on the high pole on the left side of the temple gate.

Everyone was shocked, not knowing that the archer shot the lantern indiscriminately.Still intending to shoot at the lantern.

Just when everyone was surprised, they heard the sound of "whoosh" in the hall, and in an instant more than ten feathered arrows flew out like meteors chasing the moon.It's just that these feathered arrows were not aimed at Xu Chengzong and the others, but all shot at the lanterns hanging on the tall poles around the courtyard.All I could hear was the sound of "噗噗噗" coming from the high pole.All these feathered arrows hit the lanterns on the tall poles.

At this time, whether Xu Chengzong and the others, or Li Qiufeng and the others, they all knew that the archer in the hall definitely did not shoot arrows indiscriminately, but aimed his arrows at the lantern on the high pole on purpose.The lanterns on the high poles from the main hall to the yard are more than thirty feet long. Not only did the archer aim his head just right, but also judging from the sound of the feather arrow piercing the sky and the sound of the arrow shooting into the lantern, the arrow was shot with great strength. It is definitely not what ordinary archers do.

Ji Dingzhong didn't expect such a change in the hall, he was both surprised and happy.It's just that he thought to himself, although this person's voice sounds familiar, he is definitely not a member of our Nie family.It's just that this man is so good at bow and arrow, why didn't he shoot the dog thief surnamed Xu in the courtyard to death, what's the use of shooting those lanterns?

While Ji Dingzhong was in shock, arrows from the hall shot out in a row.In the blink of an eye, more than [-] feathered arrows have been shot from the hall, all of which hit the lanterns on the tall poles in the courtyard.

Xu Chengzhong, the iron armored officers and the thin red robes around him also looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering why the archers were so good at shooting feather arrows at them and the officers and soldiers under them, instead of trying to get past the lanterns on the high poles.

The thin man in red robe whispered to Xu Chengzhong: "Brother, I don't know what the Nie family's thieves are doing. Let's start as soon as possible, slaughter these thieves, and get out of here earlier. I always feel that the situation in this temple is It's a bit weird, if you delay it, I'm afraid..."

Xu Chengzong sneered, and said: "This is a temple to worship the ancestors of the Xu family. We are here to get rid of these traitors from the Nie family. The old dog at home has never shown up. We can’t just set fire to the temple. Don’t forget that 14 years ago, 27 uncles from our Xu family surrounded Old Dog Nie in Baoding and forced him to escape into an abandoned kiln. At that time, there were three guards around him, who were proficient in hidden weapons. Uncles wanted to rush into the abandoned kiln to kill Laogou Nie, but they were killed and injured many people by the three guards with hidden weapons. Later, the uncles brought firewood and burned the abandoned kiln. He thought he burned Nie Laogou and the three guards alive. Unexpectedly, Nie Laogou escaped from the cave by some means. Later, while his uncles and uncles thought they were done, they were defenseless. At that time, Old Dog Nie sent masters from the Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du families to sneak attack, and almost slaughtered all the uncles, greatly hurting the strength of our Xu family."

When Xu Chengzong said this, he glanced at the red-robed thin man, and then said: "The lesson from the past, don't forget it. We must see Old Dog Nie come forward, and then we will attack with all our strength and kill all these people, so as not to leave future troubles!"

When the two were talking, no feathered arrows shot out from the hall.The armored officer laughed loudly, put his sword across the horse, and said proudly to Li Qiufeng and the others standing on the stone steps: "This archery skill is really eye-opening. Could you invite archery friends to come out? Let me see what it looks like. It is a rare thing in the world to meet such a strange person here!"

Ji Ding was also at a loss in the center, but even though he was in a dangerous situation at this time, he must not lose to the opponent in terms of momentum.So Ji Dingzhong sneered, and said, "Who do you think you are? If you really want to meet this archery hero, you might as well jump off the horse and bow three times and nine times. Maybe I will be merciful and you will see me." Open your eyes."

As soon as Ji Dingzhong said this, the armored officer flew into a rage, held up a big knife with both hands, and shouted angrily: "Shameless thief, you dare to tease me when you are about to die. Wait until I cut off your dog's head with a knife and hang it on a high pole Come on, let's see what else you can spit out from your dog mouth!"

After he finished speaking, he was about to urge his mount and charged straight at Ji Dingzhong.Suddenly, there was a flash of a figure at the entrance of the main hall, and a black figure leaped out from the main hall, rushing towards him swiftly and inexorably.

Seeing this situation, the Iron Armored Officer's heart trembled.However, he has fought many battles with Hu Kun, and he is not panicked when he is suddenly attacked at this time.He swung his big knife and slashed towards the figure with one stroke.
