A knife in love

Chapter 699

Hearing what he said, Yang Ye's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Mr. Gao, how is this possible?"

The red-robed man took a deep breath and calmed down.He said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the Skull King's Temple according to the route that Xiao Er said, but before reaching the Skull Mountain, the sky suddenly darkened. We realized that something was wrong, and we were thinking about how to move forward. Suddenly, countless skeletons drilled out of the ground, bent their bows, set arrows, and wielded knives and guns, and they came to kill us. We couldn't resist, so we had to flee back along the original road. When we got to the wooden bridge, one of my subordinates The entourage desperately blocked the bridge and protected the four of us to escape the wooden bridge. However, not long after we escaped the river, the skeleton chased after us, and the entourage had already been killed. Fortunately, he fought desperately and made the skeleton It was about a mile away from us. After we escaped for several miles, we saw a figure swaying in the archway from a distance. I was afraid that the enemy would ambush here, so I sent a follower with excellent archery skills to investigate first. Then there was a misunderstanding. After we killed the dozens of skeletons that were chasing us, we also fled here. Mr. Liu, a large number of skeletons will arrive in a blink of an eye, so we should run for our lives as soon as possible."

After the red-robed man finished speaking, Yang Ye and Yang Zhao looked at each other in disbelief.However, Li Qiufeng, Situ Qiao, Sun Guangming and Su Yan had all seen skeleton soldiers before, so they knew that what the man in red said was true.Thinking of the invulnerable appearance of that armored general, Li Qiufeng and the others changed their complexions drastically.

Yang Ye was sitting on the horse, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Gao, how could the skeletons violently kill people? I'm afraid it's just that the enemies they met wore masks. These people may be hiding their faces to prevent being recognized, maybe It's an intentional mystery to scare everyone. When everyone is terrified, they will start killing people. I don't know. Since Mr. Gao's surname is Gao, I want to know that there is a great person in Gao's ancestors, and that is Gao Changgong, the king of Lanling in the Northern Qi Dynasty. Although the king of Lanling was brave and invincible, but he was handsome, he was afraid that his subordinates would despise him, and he was afraid that he would not be able to deter the enemy on the battlefield, so he invited skilled craftsmen to make a bronze mask for him. It is said that this mask was It is in the shape of a skull, and when others look at it, they will be terrified and afraid to look at it. After King Lanling put on this mask, he became the majestic commander of the three armies on the battlefield, and his soldiers would naturally admire him. The enemy was terrified. During the battle of Jinyang in the past, he led the horsepower to retreat the Turkic cavalry, so that the Turkic people who had ruled the world mentioned the word "Lanling King". In the Battle of the Battle of Lanling, King Lanling wore a bronze mask and defeated the [-] army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty with five hundred cavalry, breaking the siege of Jinyong City. With this battle, King Lanling shocked the world. People in the world do not know how powerful King Lanling is, so it is rumored He possesses supernatural powers and can drive ghosts and gods to work for them. He has five hundred skeleton soldiers who kill people and kill Buddhas when they encounter Buddhas. Mr. Gao, with your wisdom, do you believe these nonsense legends?"

Seeing that Yang Ye didn't believe his words, the red-robed man saw that the situation was urgent, and he was anxious. When he was thinking about how to persuade Yang Ye, suddenly there was a burst of drumming behind him. Although the sound was a little dull, the momentum was extremely alarming.

Everyone didn't expect that the sound of drums would suddenly sound in this strange place. Situ Qiao, Monk Xuanji, Sun Guangming and Su Yan were all figures in the world, and they didn't know the situation of the battle. Although they heard the sound of drums, they were surprised , but not too much panic.Yang's father and son, Gao's master and servant, Li Qiufeng and others have all seen the scene of a large army fighting in the field. When they heard the drumbeat, they knew it was a signal that a large number of troops were gathering.So Yang's father and son and Gao's master and servant's expressions changed drastically, and they all looked in the direction of the sound of the drum.

Fifty or sixty feet away, a line of black shadow suddenly appeared, like a huge wave of rising tide, boundlessly forced towards the archway.The red-robed man turned his head and said to Yang Ye: "Old Mr. Liu, there were only a few hundred skeletons chasing us just now, and it is extremely difficult to resist. Look at the current situation, and a large number of skeletons are coming. We can no longer Hesitate for a moment, otherwise..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a rush of clappers, followed by the sound of feathered arrows piercing through the air, and countless black spots rose from the black line, flying straight towards the archway as if covering the sky and blocking out the sun. come over.

Yang Ye's face changed drastically, and he shouted: "The enemy shoots arrows, everyone, hurry up and dodge!"

Before he finished speaking, everyone felt that the surroundings had darkened in an instant, and they couldn't help but looked up together, only to see countless feathered arrows flying to the sky above the archway.The sky was originally gray, but thousands of feathered arrows flew over and immediately covered the light, so the surrounding area became dark.Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao held Pu Dao in their hands and shouted loudly, telling everyone to dodge quickly.

When the sound of the clapper sounded, the man in red and his two attendants knew that something was wrong, so they galloped wildly towards the archway.It's just that they were still more than ten feet away from the archway. Seeing that the Yang family father and son, Li Qiufeng and others had avoided the back of the archway, the three of them were still two or three feet away from the archway.It's just that at this moment, the feather arrows fell down like covering the sky and the sun, and the sound of the feather arrows piercing through the sky was palpitating.The red-robed man galloped forward desperately, only to hear several screams behind him, and the neighing sound of the war horse continued, but it was the two entourages in Tsing Yi who were shot like hedgehogs and fell to the ground in an instant.

The red-robed man was more than ten feet ahead of the two blue-clothed attendants, and he heard the screams behind him. He felt chills in his heart, thinking that he had worked hard for many years and failed to achieve a major event, so he unexpectedly died here.Just as he was in despair, suddenly a figure flashed in front of his eyes. He felt that his collar was tightened, and he was already grabbed by someone. He pulled hard to the right, and immediately flew up from the horse's back, and was dragged directly to the left side of the archway. behind the stone pillar.

His body was barely behind the stone pillar, only the sound of "crackling" could be heard continuously, but countless feather arrows shot on the archway, some were bounced out, and some were broken in two and fell to the ground.Although the man in red was torn off from his horse, his mount was still galloping forward. The horse's head had just passed through the doorway under the archway, and he had already been shot by countless feathered arrows.The horse neighed miserably, rushed forward a few steps, and fell to the ground. It didn't die for a while, but was still struggling on the ground.The sound of "噗噗" was heard continuously, but there were countless feathered arrows shot at the horse. After a while, the horse was covered with feathered arrows, like a hedgehog. alive.

When the sound of feathered arrows piercing the air sounded, the green-robed man who was thrown to the ground by Yang Yansi before saw everyone hiding everywhere, and became very anxious.At this juncture of life and death, a burst of strength came from nowhere, and the man struggled to stand up from the ground, staggering and trying to hide behind the archway.It's just that he was seriously injured. Although he was running desperately, he was not as flexible as usual.Seeing that he was about to be shot by the feather arrow, Yang Yansi turned his horse's head, stretched out his hand to lift him up, and galloped towards the town.Although the feather arrows were coming fast, the mounts of the Yang family and his son were all selected BMW horses, so countless feather arrows seemed to hit the Yang family's father and son, but they were still a few feet away.But the three war horses were flying with all four hooves, running faster and faster, the feather arrows were getting farther and farther away from the three of them, and finally the power of the feather arrows was exhausted, and they fell to the ground continuously.The father and son of the Yang family reined in their mounts and turned the horse's head. They were forty or fifty zhang away from the archway.

Yang Yansi put the green-robed man on the ground lightly, and said: "You run for your life, don't hinder us from killing the enemy!"

The green-robed man was still in shock, knowing that his life was saved by Yang Yansi, he cupped his hands and said: "Thank you for saving my life, my lord!"

Yang Yansi waved his hand, ignored him, turned to Yang Ye and said, "Father, although the man surnamed Gao pretends to be a ghost and speaks insanely, but judging by the momentum of the enemy, there may be no less than tens of thousands of people. How should we deal with it?"

Yang Ye looked up and saw that the feather arrows were still shooting towards the archway.In the blink of an eye just now, it was Li Qiufeng who rescued the man in red.At this time, he had dragged the man in red to hide behind the stone pillar, and hid side by side with Situ Qiao.Monk Xuanji hid behind the stone pillar on the other side with Sun Guangming and Su Yan.The feather arrows were numerous and urgent, suppressing the six people so that they did not dare to move an inch.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Yang Ye said in a deep voice: "Although these people met us by chance, the enemy and friends are unknown, but we must not see them in a desperate situation. Although the enemy opened his bow and arrows, I saw that the arrows were not strong enough. Let's use arrows against arrows, and shoot the enemy's commander to death first. If the enemy loses command, there will be chaos, and we can rescue everyone and escape from this place."

Yang Yanzhao said: "Father, is it true that the Song army has really arrived here and is going to attack our Han country again?"

Yang Ye shook his head, and said: "The situation is unclear now, and I don't know which country's army is on the opposite side. But I heard that Cao Bin, the general of Song State, was very wise and cautious, quite like Zhuge Wuhou in those days. The style of soldiers. According to the news from our secret agents in Bianjing and Luoyang, although the Song army has assembled tens of thousands of elite soldiers, it is definitely not enough to attack our Han country. Therefore, if Cao Bin leads troops Before the army is fully assembled, it will never rush to Gaoping. Therefore, the army on the opposite side will most likely not be the Song army."

Yang Yanzhao was suspicious, and said: "If it's not the Song army, it's our Han army. But before Dad set off, he had already told the generals not to act rashly, lest the treacherous officials in the court frame us and force the soldiers to be self-respecting, let alone leave it to Song Guo. The pretext for attacking our Han country. The boy thought that the generals under the tent respected his father like a god, so he would never dare to lead troops into Gaoping without authorization. Neither our soldiers nor the Song army, whose soldiers could they be? "

When Yang Yanzhao said this, his heart skipped a beat, and he said in a trembling voice, "It won't be true, as the surnamed Gao said, the army on the opposite side is not soldiers from Yangjian, but some kind of skeleton army?"
