Chapter 402 Chapter 400 [A glance for ten thousand years]

For Lu Chen and the soldiers of the Hou Mansion, the real threat was the crossbowmen standing condescendingly on the horizontal wall.

Although the power of the waist-zhang crossbow at the end of the long street is terrifying, it can't stand up to the sturdy carriage Lu Tong specially built for Lu Chen. After all, the waist-zhang crossbow is not a weapon for defending the city such as the bed crossbow or the eight-niu crossbow.

Facing the protection of the carriage, the men in black holding crossbows and the eight strong archers could only remain vigilant to prevent Lu Chen and others from escaping. At the same time, they moved forward with extra caution, not daring to speed up a little.

Whether it is a crossbow or a strong bow, it can exert absolute suppression at a certain distance. However, once the opponent's master breaks through at close range, they will become fish on the chopping board.

On the contrary, those black-clothed crossbowmen relied on the convenience of hand-held crossbows to dare to rush forward quickly. Although the power was not as powerful as the waist-opening crossbow, they could play a huge role in a short distance. They only needed to come to the side of the carriage to attack Lu Chen. A deadly threat.

However, these crossbowmen did not expect that what they saw was not a group of people hiding behind the carriage with panic-stricken faces, but a wooden shield covering the body of the incoming person, and a brilliant sword light piercing the sky!
In this dangerous situation, Lu Chen's heart was still clear and clear.

The defense force around him is not weak at all. The more than 20 personal soldiers have certain martial arts strength and rich fighting experience. They cooperate with each other tacitly and are not afraid of death. It is not a problem to deal with several assassins. In addition, masters such as Captain Chi Gui are accompanying him. Protection can be considered quite comprehensive within the boundaries of the capital city.

To put it simply, he couldn't be accompanied by one or two hundred cavalry every time he traveled, or even everyone was in full armor. Otherwise, before the assassin showed up, he would be engulfed in the saliva of the government and the public.

It's just that the middle-aged swordsman invited by the mastermind behind the assassination entangled Yuchi Gui. Although he was unable to break through the obstruction and threaten Lu Chen, Yuchi Gui was also taken away from the carriage by him. Otherwise, Yuchi Gui would have been able to easily deal with the crossbowmen. .

If he didn't have enough self-confidence, how could he take risks himself?

These thoughts flashed through Lu Chen's mind. While retreating to the back of the carriage, he had already figured out the current situation, so he immediately removed the door.

The black-clothed crossbowman blocking the front raised his sword to block the attack.

In an instant, it seemed as if countless crossbow arrows were coming towards me and nailed to the wooden board, like a downpour falling on the world, and like a sad and majestic piece of music playing continuously.

The strange thing is that these crossbowmen in black didn't panic at all. They held the crossbow in one hand without hesitation and picked up the steel knife at their waist with the other hand. They faced it without any fear, their eyes were extremely cold and indifferent.

They didn't have much time to think about it now, because after the first round of crossbow arrows were fired, the board had already rushed in front of them.

What's wrong with all the soldiers being killed? As long as you are willing to spend money, you can always recruit more masters, but if you die here, wouldn't everything be over?
Lu Chen didn't think so.

"puff!"

"puff!"

The crossbowmen in black now hope to hold the more powerful waist-opening crossbow. Although the hand crossbow is easy and fast to cast, it is difficult to cause damage when the opponent is blocked.

Lu Chen had experienced too many fights and could tell the qualities of these people just by looking at them, but he had no mercy at all.

Obviously, this is a group of real dead warriors, unlike those assassins who would care about their own lives at the most critical moment.

"puff!"

However, these crossbow arrows could not penetrate the wooden board blocking Lu Chen's body.

Just like what he once said to Lin Xi in Guangling City, there are things people should do and things they shouldn't do when they live in the world. The most important thing is that he doesn't think he will die here today!

The light of the sword pierced the sky, and Lu Chenxiang stepped forward, protecting his body with a wooden board, and rushed forward as fast as he could!

Then he saw the brilliant sword light suddenly blooming. After accumulating for several feet, the sword carried all Lu Shen's anger and exploded in front of everyone's eyes like a blooming fire lotus.

On the killing field, there is only distinction between ourselves and the enemy.

Perhaps in the eyes of some superiors, Lu Chen's choice to stay was a stupid decision.

In fact, the unfathomable middle-aged swordsman is being stopped by Yuchi Gui. Lu Chen can completely escape with his own physical skills, but that will abandon all his soldiers. After all, their strength is not as good as Lu Chen's, and he wants to attack the opponent from both sides. It is obviously impossible to escape under such circumstances.

The wind was strong, blowing the hair on the back of his head, but it couldn't blow away the courage in his eyes or extinguish the raging anger in his heart!

"boom!"

The steel knife breaks!

Lu Chen's sword did not stop, there was not even the slightest lag, and he continued to strike with Wanfu's undue force, along the black-clothed crossbowman's forehead to the lower abdomen, the violent sword power came out of the black-clothed crossbowman's body, and the black-clothed crossbowman was struck down. A gash was cut in front of his body, with flesh and blood dripping out and the bones visible!
The black-clothed crossbowman didn't even say a word and fell backwards toward the wall.

Lu Chen landed steadily on the horizontal wall. He quickly dashed forward with his short body and slashed away with another slash. The lower abdomen of another black-clothed crossbowman was cut open and his intestines slipped out.

At this time, all the crossbowmen in black understood that after being approached by Lu Chen, the only outcome waiting for them was death.

However, it was impossible to distance themselves in a hurry. These crossbowmen were like dumplings thrown out of the pot. They jumped off the horizontal wall one after another, either actively or passively. A few people fell behind the wall, and more people landed on Qingfeng Street. Up, not far away is the sturdy carriage.

There were also the soldiers of the Hou Mansion who rushed towards them. In the distance, men holding crossbows and eight strong archers looked solemnly at the fight near the carriage. They really did not expect that the young prince's force was so powerful, and he actually disrupted the crossbowmen with a shield and a sword. Their formation turned into a melee.

It is conceivable that under the siege of masters like Lu Chen and those soldiers of the Hou Mansion, the crossbowmen would not be able to hold on for long.

This is also true. When Lu Chen was alone in danger and forced the crossbowmen to jump off the horizontal wall, the angry soldiers of the Hou Mansion descended from the mountain like tigers and rushed forward regardless of their own safety. The crossbowmen lost the blessing of their sharp weapons and died one after another. Fall to the ground.

Among the men holding the crossbow, Meng Xuan gritted his teeth and said: "Wind the string!"

The meaning of this order was extremely clear, but everyone else was stunned.

They are indeed soldiers who may die at any time. However, dying in the hands of the enemy and dying in the hands of one's own people are completely different concepts. Now those crossbowmen in black are in a bitter battle, but they want to kill them all regardless of the enemy. This Not an easy decision to make.

Meng Xuan said sternly: "If Lu Chen doesn't die, neither you nor I can live!"

Everyone's expressions changed, and then they heard the sound of bowstrings being pulled and crossbows being tightened.

Meng Xuan looked at the fighting in the distance and suddenly saw Lu Chen looking towards him from a distance.

Although the distance was relatively far, the sharp gaze made Meng Xuan's eyes hurt.

The next moment, a sudden change occurred in the field. The coachman who had been hiding earlier jumped up onto the shaft of the carriage, suddenly pulled the reins with both hands, and the two horses turned to the front.

The coachman was also a soldier who had been following Lu Chen for a long time. He pinned his body in a weird posture, whipped the horse's butt hard with his long whip, then passed the reins around and roared: "Master Marquis, move forward! "

The horse was so painful that it spread its four hooves and galloped away towards the end of the long street in the clouds and mist!

Lu Chen pursed his lips tightly and walked away from the battle with his shield and sword. After a few ups and downs, he followed the carriage and headed towards the real killing weapons in the distance.

The coachman leaned against the half door, looking at the crossbows and strong archers in front of him, and said sternly: "Bastards, grandpa is here!"

There was only one speeding carriage on the long street, but it was like a thousand troops coming through the waves.

This scene even calmed Meng Xuan and the dead soldiers around him.

The driver obviously knew that he had no hope of surviving when facing those terrifying arrows and crossbows, but there was no trace of fear on his face, only a maniacal laugh as if he was about to die!

The carriage was Lu Chen's barrier. As long as he got close to the other party, he could disrupt the situation.

No one expected that things would change like this. The dead soldiers did not fire arrows to try to kill the coachman. At this time, they heard Meng Xuan yell: "Send the carriage over and swear to kill Lu Chen!"

Suddenly, the wind picked up at the street corner.

A woman with a dusty face and a weathered face appeared. She looked at the situation on the long street and then stepped forward.

Her eyes were frighteningly bright, with an icy murderous intent that was as cold as the wind in the wilderness.

The sword that killed the horse was held in his hand, and the blade was filled with a cold light that cleansed away all the filth in the world.

Her speed became faster and faster, creating a roaring wind.

Meng Xuan and other dead men suddenly discovered the knife-wielding woman appearing behind them, and they could not react at all in their minds, because the location of today's assassination was well chosen, whether it was the imperial center or the Sutra Weaving Department, even though they knew it immediately The situation here means that it will take a long time to send someone here.

It was just a middle-aged man who could block Yin Qianjue before. How could an extremely powerful woman appear now?

On the other side, the carriage had rushed near everyone. The driver couldn't believe that he was not dead. When he saw the woman rushing towards him clearly, a look of excitement suddenly appeared on his face.

Lu Chen, who was hanging behind the carriage, spread his wings like an eagle, holding a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, leaping in the air towards the men in black who retreated hastily to the street.

At this moment, a more splendid, more astonishingly powerful sword light filled with endless murderous intent lit up not far away.

Lu Chen turned his head and looked around, and saw that face that was missing him so much appeared in his sight.

Lin Xi also looked at Lu Chen, with a thousand words hidden in that look.

The two sword lights complement each other, like a big net that covers the sky and the sun, covering the dead men in black holding crossbows, the archers holding strong bows, and Meng Xuan.

They have nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide, and nowhere to escape!
The light of the sword fell from the sky, smashing the crossbow that could easily take people's lives, smashing a strong bow made of tensile gold stone, and smashing all the reliance of these dead men in black!

Lu Chen and Lin Xi passed by each other without saying a word, and they already had the same understanding.

In front of these two accompanying sword lights, all enemies were turned into powder!
