King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 90
"The king's envoy... killed more than a dozen brothers!" Lu Jian was heartbroken.

These elite believers are the elite of the Jinling province, so the loss is not heartbreaking.

Wang Xianxiang also felt annoyed, looked at the scholar's house next to him, and said angrily: "Damn... how can these guards of the imperial court be so powerful!"

"Old Emperor, you are too afraid of death!"

Cursing and cursing couldn't solve the problem, after thinking for a while, Wang Xianxiang said in a deep voice: "It seems that it is difficult to capture the Zhu family boy alive!"

"Shenshi Wang, time waits for no one, we have to get things done quickly, or the officers and soldiers will come!" Lu Jian was full of anxiety.

Wang Xianxiang showed a ruthless face, and said: "Let the brothers find firewood and burn them to death inside!"

"Yes!"

In this countryside, it is not difficult to find firewood, and there are quite a few farmers in the surrounding area.

And there is no need for too much firewood, all you need is to ignite the house, after all, Xue's other courtyard is a wooden structure.

After finding the two nearest farmers, the Bailian disciples brought a lot of straw and firewood and placed them in key places outside Xue's house.

In addition to firewood, they also found tung oil as a kindling.

When they were ready, Wang Xianxiang gave an order, and the members of the Bailian sect lit the fire together, and soon Xue's house was on fire.

After the flame climbed, it began to ignite the houses near the fence, but the burning rate was slower.

"More oil, more oil..." Wang Xianxiang shouted.

At this moment, in the Xue family's house, seeing the flames burning around them, those who could still move tried to put out the fire.

Some are looking for water to splash on, some are using brooms to shoot, and some are fanning with things...

However, the fire is not a big threat now, but the thick smoke is unbearable, and the choking people keep coughing.

Everyone else was fine, but when those injured coughed, the wounds would be affected immediately, making them scream again and again.

Within two to three minutes of the flames being lit, the inside was already extremely busy.

Fortunately, Zhu Jinghong remained calm, and while having someone move the wounded to the leeward side, he also asked someone to cover his mouth and nose with a damp cloth.

Hearing the wailing sound from the courtyard, Wang Xianxiang finally felt a little more comfortable, and then said in a low voice: "Brothers who died, I will avenge you, please return to the seat of Goddess with peace of mind!"

"Get ready to shoot the arrows, shoot them all!"

"Yes!"

Lu Jian hurriedly greeted his subordinates, called the archers to the front of the house, lined up and prepared to shoot.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more screams inside. Wang Xianxiang felt that it was time, so he ordered to start shooting arrows.

From the beginning to the present, their arrows are not many, and they have been exhausted after only five volleys.

Such a projectile, whether it can be hit or not is entirely dependent on fate.

The reality is that these arrows are almost useless, because everyone is hiding in the corner.

"Master Thirteen, I will protect you to break through!" Hou Jing's expression was determined.

Zhu Jinghong said sadly: "What happened today is all because of my own will, which has caused you such a field..."

What happened today made him realize first-hand that the huge risk that Bailongyu takes in such a thing, even if he is unlucky once in [-] times, it is an unbearable burden if it falls on him.

Hou Jing quickly said: "The Thirteenth Master must not blame himself, this is all incompetent ministers, just now..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Jinghong held his saber tightly and said, "If we can escape from birth today, you and I will be brothers in life and death, and we will never lose each other regardless of wealth or wealth in the future!"

What Zhu Jinghong said was true, and it was exactly what he dug out from the bottom of his heart.

I can't say that I am so solemn and firm without going through life and death.

At this time of life and death, the dignified heir of the royal family wishes to be equal to all brothers and never lose. All the people present are young people and are easily infected by Zhu Jinghong.

"I swear to follow the Thirteenth Master to the death and never lose!" Hou Jing knelt down on one knee.

About to face the most tragic fight, all the guards were all bloody, kneeling on one knee and saying: "I swear to follow the Thirteenth Lord to the death, and never lose!"

At this moment, Zhu Jinghong's blood was also boiling with pride, and he said with pride: "Brothers, follow me to kill!"

After saying that, Zhu Jinghong turned around and walked outside. He planned to fight again, even if he died, he didn't want to be burned to death.

They walked out from the inner courtyard, but before they reached the front yard, they heard shouts from outside.

"Kill...kill the culprit, the master of the Xue family will reward you!"

"Kill the thief, there will be a lot of rewards!"

The voice came faintly, but it made Hou Jing ecstatic.

"Master Thirteen, it's... Wang Jie Yuxin and the others!"

Zhang Lin also excitedly said: "They are here!"

It has been more than half an hour since the two of them left, and they finally found a helper.

This really cannot be blamed for the delay by Wang Jie and the others. It is not an easy task to find the hidden farmers and mobilize them.

"The master of the Xue family said that there is a big reward for killing a thief, including money and land..."

"Those people are not Japanese pirates, but thieves from other places. Don't be afraid, everyone..."

"These thieves are not many people, and the officers and soldiers are coming soon. If the big guys don't do anything...the family business that is hard to earn in a few lifetimes will be gone!"

Wang Jie and Lu Yuxin kept shouting, inspiring the courage of the young and strong.

They recruited more than 200 young and strong people. These people were holding hoes and long shovels, and they had some momentum going hand in hand.

"Silver land, you can get it if you kill the thief, come on, big guy..."

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men. These young men are real brave men, and they have been effectively organized.

"Who are these people?" Wang Xianxiang was a little surprised.

"It seems...they are farmers!" Lu Jian replied.

"They don't want to die?"

After being surprised, Wang Xianxiang immediately ordered: "Stop them and kill them..."

It doesn't matter if these people seek death, but they must not hinder his plan to kill "Zhu", so he will kill as many as they come.

Dozens of Bailian believers rushed towards the young and strong with knives in hand. Although they were few in number, they had an advantage in weapons.

"Throw……"

Wang Jie let out a loud roar, and the young and strong men tried their best to throw the stones in their hands. Hundreds of stones flew towards the White Lotus Sect, causing everyone in the White Lotus Sect to run away with their heads in their hands.

"Kill them, kill them..." Wang Jie rushed forward.

Lu Yuxin yelled, "Kill the thieves to death, earn a fortune, come on..."

Soon the two sides came into contact with each other, but the situation of the battle was almost impossible to watch.

Although the number of the White Lotus Sect is small, there are more than 100 members. With the tacit understanding of weapons, they are superior, and the young and strong who fight directly are defeated.

This is not to blame for the young and strong, they only know how to farm on weekdays, how can they fight with others like dead soldiers.

As long as they see blood, these people will collapse when they are inflated with blood, and of course they will disperse under the wrap of fear.

Of course, there were some really ruthless people among them, killing and wounding more than a dozen people under the flurry of hoes and shovels.

It was at this time that someone shouted: "The officers and soldiers are coming, the officers and soldiers are coming..."

Looking in the direction of the sound, Wang Jie saw in the distance, there were cavalrymen approaching quickly on horseback, and the people in front were holding the banner of the Ming army.

At this moment, Wang Xianxiang was terrified.

He couldn't figure out why the imperial army came so quickly, it was only an hour at most since they started.

The cavalry was very fast, and within a few seconds, they were within a hundred meters, and after a few breaths, arrows rained down.

The young and strong had already fled, and everyone in the White Lotus Sect was shot into hedgehogs, crying for their father and mother and running away in all directions.

The first cavalry to arrive were more than 40 people from the Qianhu Institute in Jinling. With their crossbows, the Bailian believers could not resist.

"Take it down as soon as possible and save the Thirteenth Master!" Li Wenzhao roared angrily.
