Swordsman Fengyunzhi

Chapter 140 Five: Late Night Enemy Attack

"That's true, but there is one more strange thing. According to common sense, if the dispute between the two factions is fierce, it is usually mediated by the monarch. But why didn't they make any move this time?"

Regarding this matter, Ouye Changfeng had some guesses, and he spoke contemptuously:
"I'm afraid it's not Luo Yunguo behind it, but Luo Yunzong."

"You mean Xu Xianzhi? But why would he do this?" Feng Huzi was puzzled.

"Maybe I want to test the background of these family powers."

Although the strength of the entire Luo Yunguo court is attached to Luo Yunzong, who knows if they will do some tricks behind the scenes, and Xu Xianzhi has a strong desire to control Luo Yunguo, how can he let them do nothing?

Feng Huzi couldn't figure out why the government officials made it so complicated, so he didn't ask any further questions. Compared with these trivial matters, he still found the refining tool more attractive.

"By the way, why haven't you seen senior brother Ou Yezi recently?"

"He went to Fallen Leaf City, saying that he had to do something, and he should be back in a few days."

……

In the Lord's Mansion of Fallen Leaf City, a middle-aged man was standing quietly, not daring to breathe. In front of him was a slightly stooped old man. In the entire hall, there was no one else except the two of them.

"What's going on with your six big families in the past few days?"

Facing Ou Yezi's question, Ji Shenfu didn't dare to be careless, and he replied respectfully:

"Let me tell you, senior, Luo Yunzong issued an order a few days ago to let Yunxi County pay tribute directly to them. According to the information I have inquired about, the Zhang family and the Lu family seem to intend to attack the Tan family's bodyguard team."

The stooped old man glanced at the middle-aged man with his head sideways, and after seeing that there was no sign of lying in the other's expression, he continued to ask:

"Then does your Ji family intend to participate?"

Ji Shenfu bowed his head and cupped his hands and said:

"Senior, you were joking. My Ji family is just the last one among the six major families. It's too late to avoid it. How dare you intervene."

Just as he was talking, suddenly the middle-aged man began to sweat continuously on his forehead, and his expression gradually became distorted, as if countless maggots were gnawing on his body. It was very painful, but it was so, Ji Shen Fu still didn't dare to shout out, for fear of disturbing the old man in front of him.

Ou Yezi naturally saw this scene, but to him, the pain of the other party was not worthy of pity at all. He said coldly:
"Do you really want to kill me now?!"

The middle-aged man was like a bolt from the blue when he heard this sentence. In fact, he did have such emotions when he was first marked with the Qingyun sword pattern, but as time passed, the pain became more and more intense, so that every time he When thinking of Ou Yezi's appearance, he would always shudder and couldn't help trembling in his heart. Until now, he didn't even dare to show the slightest bit of hatred for him, let alone his killing intent.

Ji Shenfu hurriedly lowered his back and cupped his hands forward. Apart from pain, there was only fear in his current expression.

"Junior...don't dare..."

The stooped old man just let out a cold snort, then flung his sleeves and disappeared into the hall.

As soon as Ou Yezi left, there was a bang, and the middle-aged man curled up on the ground, moaning in pain.

An hour later, the pain finally disappeared, but Ji Shenfu still couldn't stand up. At this moment, his whole body was exhausted, his sleeves had already been soaked in sweat, and he looked as if he had fallen into a lake. Same, very embarrassing.

Not long after, the middle-aged man lay on his back on the ground, panting heavily, recalling the figure of the old man just now, his heart throbbed uncontrollably, the miniature pupils showed his fear, but Amidst this fear, there was another glimmer of sternness.

……

After a whole day's journey, everyone felt exhausted, and the highly tense mental state caused the entire team's physical strength to drain rapidly. It was not until evening that the leader of the Qingjia guard ordered everyone to camp in place.

Although this place is a broad avenue, it is still too far away from the next town. Fortunately, there is a river around them for them to fetch water.

Due to solar terms, the fish in the water don't grow too big, the longest is no more than half a foot, but eating meat is better than eating dry noodles.Although the fish is not big, but fortunately there are enough, enough for everyone to have a full meal.

The camps of the Fire Front Escort Bureau are located on the edge, and they are classified according to their status. The closer they are to the inside, the higher their status. They were exhausted one by one at night, and those disciples who didn't have to watch the night even fell asleep, snoring loudly.

Although there were night guard disciples standing guard around, they were too tired to hold them back. After standing for a while, they sat on the chairs on the ground and took a nap against the trees.

However, Zhao Feng couldn't sleep. When he was dormant in Tiexin Village back then, he understood a truth, the more tired the enemy is, the easier it is to strike, so he can be sure that someone will definitely attack them tonight.

That's why he reminded the other bodyguards of the Huofeng Bodyguard Bureau during the day so that they don't have to be too nervous. The real battle is tonight.

At this moment, Zhao Feng suddenly sensed a black figure galloping away not far away. The speed of the other party was very fast, and he disappeared into the dense forest in the blink of an eye. In fact, he was not the only one in the field who sensed the change. The sleeping Helian Haixin also noticed it.

Just when they were wondering who that person was, a burst of light footsteps came from all directions. Judging from the sound, there should be at least 80 to [-] people. Awake.

"There are enemies coming, prepare to fight."

In an instant, all the bodyguards stood up in response, quickly picked up the long knives in their hands, and stared fixedly at the front. Fortunately, listening to the shopkeeper's words during the day did not consume too much energy, otherwise I am afraid that I am still drowsy now.

Apart from them, Helian Haixin had already woken up the disciples of the Helian family. As soon as Helianjing woke up, he heard footsteps outside, which made him stand up quickly. At this time, there was a sudden scream from the south.

The night watchmen stood up hastily, only to see fires and smoke in the south.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

"There are enemy attacks in the west!"

"There is also in the north!"

…………

The noisy crowd made the already loose team even more chaotic, and the warriors present didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

"What the hell happened?"
