Is it a trap?
No, it was discovered here!
Li Yan made a quick judgment and then hid in the darkness.
He still used his escape technique, like a civet cat climbing up a tree, jumping to the roof of a nearby shop, galloping, leaping, climbing over walls and cruising around the area.
Today, Chengdu Prefecture and King of Shu have completely gained the upper hand.
This is not a battle between rivers and lakes. Only two masters are sent to deal with it. Only a fool would do this.
Sure enough, he soon discovered more people.
There are guard soldiers, armed with spears or ordinary firearms, divided into several small teams, and several people work together to carry the barbed iron net.
This is the yamen's habit of dealing with people in the world.
But this time, neither the Chengdu Yamen nor Commandery Commandant Office showed up. Obviously King of Shu did not trust them and was even on guard.
Even more troublesome is Black Feather Guard.
These people were also divided into small teams, holding Divine Firearm, and cooperated with the evil people to occupy the commanding heights quietly.
The good thing is that there are not many people.
Li Yan had a guess in his mind. Shu King Residence should have obtained the information, but he didn't know who was inside.
If we knew he was coming, I'm afraid the battle would be even bigger.
But if you want to get out of the siege, you can't do it forcefully...
Ghost Opera Troupe masters are powerful, but the biggest threat is firearms.
Thinking of this, Li Yan jumped onto a roof quietly. Not far away, there was a group of Black Feather Guard who were aiming their guns.
At the same time, changes occurred below.
In the wind, snow and darkness, the two Ghost Opera Troupe are getting closer and closer.
This Huaiqing Carriage Guild is also a force in Chengdu's Jianghu Road. He has black, white, and gray businesses, and he has all kinds of businesses, and he is naturally very careful in his actions.
Not only were there men squatting beside the fire and keeping vigil outside the store, but there were also spies posted in two nearby houses.
Right away, two masters Ghost Opera Troupe were discovered.
"Who!"
Seeing the two men appear from the darkness, the gatekeeper was shocked.
One person pulled out the broken blade from his waist and shouted loudly.
The other man quickly pulled the hemp rope on the door.
Clang clang clang!
In the seemingly dark room, a ringing sound was immediately heard.
Then, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps.
With a creak, the back door opened.
Boom!
The sound of gunfire rang out, and the man who had just emerged was immediately beaten to a bloody pulp, and his body flew upside down. Even the two people behind him were injured.
In the room, it was Faceless Young Master and others.
Fragrant Tea Pavilion Shopkeeper Lu asked someone to send a message and contacted Faceless Young Master who was hiding underground in Chengdu.
Because King of Shu is a common enemy, Faceless Young Master readily accepted the invitation, but to ensure safety, he only brought Sha LiFei with him.
The Huaiqing carriage and horse shop became a meeting place.
"Senior brother--!"
A bearded man hugged the bloody body on the ground and shouted angrily, "Someone leaked the secret! Who betrayed us!"
You can tell something is wrong with your feet even with your feet.
Fragrant Tea Pavilion's Lu Qingshan asked someone to take the message in the morning, and Faceless Young Master set the location in the afternoon, which can be said to be extremely hasty.
Exposed in such a short period of time, only a mole can explain it.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the store became solemn.
Everyone held their weapons and were on guard against each other, but they were vaguely divided into two gangs, the Chengdu underworld and the Huaiqing Car and Horse Shop.
The leader of the carriage shop in Huaiqing is an old man in brocade clothes. He is tall, dark-skinned, with white hair and a curly beard. He is also blind in one eye.
This old man's name is Xie Huaiqing, and he is also the leader of the Five Elements in Chengdu.
Different from Chang'an, because there are dense waterways in central Sichuan, Chengdu Prefecture's car dealership mainly operates several Sichuan Road and Tea Horse Road.
Xie Huaiqing has Tibetan blood and is also an outer disciple of Iron Buddha Temple, so he supports this business.
Seeing this situation, he said with a gloomy face, "King of Shu is a formidable enemy. I risked my life and property to do this. If I betray all my comrades, how will I be able to gain a foothold in the world in the future!"
"We will discuss this later."
Faceless Young Master is indeed the Chengdu gangster Chief. At this time, he was still calm. He pinched Yang Seal and looked out the window through the slit, his pupils flashing. "He is a man from Ghost Opera Troupe. He has deep moral knowledge and is difficult to deal with. There are also firearms ambushes around him."
"They are Shu King Residence elites. The only solution now is to break out. There is a secret passage under Lock Dragon Well two streets away. If you hold on there, you can survive!"
After saying that, he turned to look at the crowd and said with a solemn expression, "With masters restraining us and firearms harassing us, even I can't escape death. Now that things have happened, we can only break through with unity."
"Okay!"
"Laozi, fight for it!"
"Please give me your orders!"
Others also spoke in agreement.
"Okay!"
Faceless Young Master quickly made arrangements in a low voice.
Only Sha LiFei looked out the window uneasily.
He didn't forget that Li Yan is coming too...
"Stop, don't move!"
Outside the carriage shop, two men were sweating on their foreheads.
The two people walking on the street put too much pressure on them. Ghost Zhong Kui and the dutiful daughter in white were just like the strange stories in folklore, which made them tremble even if they didn't take action.
"Let you pretend to be so stupid!"
Finally, a man couldn't bear the pressure and took the initiative.
But he was not a fool. He didn't rush to kill anyone. Instead, he took two steps forward, touched the back of his waist with his right hand, and immediately took out several willow leaf flying knives.
His middle and index fingers hold the knife's spine at three points near the tip, and his ring finger clasps the tail of the handle, which coincides with the three talents of heaven, earth, and man.
This technique, called "Three Talents Intercepting Meridian Style", is suitable for mid-range spinning shots.
This man works at Sichuan Road all year round. When he has nothing to do, he will let the porters hang copper coins on both ends of the poles, pick leaves to make the coins rotate, and exercise his Martial Power hands and eyesight. This is a skill he is proud of.
Whoosh!
A handful of flying knives cut through the wind and snow, and went straight to the necks of Ghost Zhong Kui and Bai Xiaonu, one after the other.
The willow leaf flying knife was thrown out, and the man felt confident in his heart.
The flying knives are all in tandem, slow in front and fast in the back. They seem to be aimed at the neck, but they are all decoys.
When approaching, the flying knife from behind will hit the flying knife in front, causing it to change direction and shoot towards the heart.
He had practiced this wonderful technique for a long time.
Unexpectedly, under today's pressure, I succeeded directly.
However, his eyes widened immediately.
I saw four flying knives whizzing out. When they were approaching the enemy, there was a sudden Yin Wind noise all around, and the flying knives stopped in the air.
"Hehehehaha..."
Strange laughter came from the darkness.
On the snow, dense footprints appeared at some point.
The black mist surged, and five little ghosts with green skin and red hair appeared, holding willow leaf flying knives in their hands, tossing them around like a juggler.
"Ghost... ghost!"
The two men felt the coldness rushing into their hearts, and they had no intention of resisting anymore. They turned around and came to the door, banging, banging, banging, and shouting:
"Quick, let me in!"
But as soon as he said a word, his whole body became stiff.
Waves of cold breath wrapped around them like horses, making their whole bodies numb and their brains unconscious.
In the distance, Flowing Cloud Water Sleeves in Mourning Dress Dan Bai Qi Hong's hand is swaying slightly like a living thing.
Bang!
At this moment, the door suddenly shattered.
Hu Lulu!
The sound of war horses neighed.
Seven tall horses rushed out, spraying white air from their nostrils, with blood-red eyes, and several bamboo baskets hanging on their bodies.
These are the animals from the carriage shop, which have been driven crazy by poison.
Inside the bamboo basket, acrid smoke was also burning.
Bang bang!
The two men guarding the door had already been cursed and did not know how to dodge. They were directly knocked seven or eight meters away by the crazy horse.
There was the sound of hoofbeats and the crazy horse rushed out of the street.
Wolf smoke was billowing, mixed with wind and snow, obscuring the view.
"Hehe, he is quite smart."
Mourning Dress Dan Bai Qi Hong covered his mouth and smiled, shaking his right hand slightly, Flowing Cloud Water Sleeves suddenly roared out like a training horse, wrapping around the neck of a crazy horse.
Poof!
The horse rolled over in practice, and its head broke and flew up.
Blood splattered everywhere, staining the sleeves red and white.
In the dim light, you can see that the water sleeves are actually made of metal threads. As long as the strength is enough, they can be compared to the blade of a knife.
Bang bang bang!
At the same time, gunfire continued in the distance.
The flames disappeared and smoke filled the air, and Crazy Horse fell down one by one with headshots.
The shot had been fired before, and Black Feather Guard no longer covered it up.
However, although Crazy Horse is dead, the smoke of war remains.
Thick smoke billowed, quickly making the streets hazy.
Immediately, a large number of footsteps sounded.
I saw more than thirty people rushing out of the carriage and horse shop, holding sharp-edged crossbows and arrows, and quickly dispersed, running towards the places where people were eager to ambush.
"What a beautiful thought!"
Ghost Zhong Kui Situ Qian As soon as he saw it, he knew what they wanted to do. He sneered and took off an umbrella from behind.
This umbrella is made of iron-framed cowhide, with a Yin-Yang diagram and Blood-colored Talisman painted on it. It has a strong yin energy, and is obviously some kind of magic weapon.
But as soon as he took it out, his expression suddenly changed.
"Get out of the way!"
Situ Qian roared and jumped sideways.
Bai Qi Hong next to him also turned around and quickly flashed past as if wrapped in Flowing Cloud Water Sleeves.
Boom!
On the second floor of the horse and carriage shop, fire was everywhere.
Where the two were originally staying, a large area of snow exploded, and dense holes of various sizes appeared on the ground.
Second floor window, Sha LiFei looks calm and replaces the magazine.
"Seeking death!"
A sharp female voice sounded, and a white bolt spun in the air, like Swallow drawing water, leaving half a footprint on the ground, and then shot towards the second floor inn window.
Sha LiFei, saw it but did not panic, still quickly replaced the ammunition, and at the same time touched his waist Flintlock Firearm with his right hand.
He is very talented in the use of firearms.
Although I am in a hurry this time and cannot bring those powerful Fire Caltrop with me, I still have ways to deal with it.
The short musket was filled with fragmented projectiles.
Even if the opponent is very skilled, he still has to retreat.
Keep the distance and then use Divine Firearm.
He has awakened Body Mystical Power, and his movements are sharp and fast. In theory, as long as he has enough ammunition, he can continuously push people back.
As for close combat, he had already given up.
Although Body Mystical Power was awakened and allowed to break through Hidden Strength, giving him a chance to enter Transformed Strength, his talent was limited and it was far from enough to deal with masters like Ghost Opera Troupe.
Moreover, the other party's spells are a big problem.
Sure enough, sensing that he was about to use a musket, Bai Qi Hong immediately stepped back, only to see a white bolt flying up and down in the dark night wind and snow, like a phantom, moving left and right.
This is an escape technique that cannot be aimed with the naked eye alone.
Not only that, but sad songs could be heard in the dark night.
"Ah~ The moon is coming in the first watch, and Nezha is making trouble in the sea at the age of seven..."
The voice is euphemistic, Ghost Qi dense.
This is the Tang Dynasty filial song <Five Watches Ancient People>, arranged by update, with historical allusions embedded in each update.
It is quite popular among the people to do white things. If you invite people to sing condolences, this song is often indispensable.
But Bai Qi Hong's filial song is nothing short of easy.
The heroes who were charging in the distance suddenly felt dizzy, their eyes were swollen, their chests were tight and they felt like vomiting, and they staggered and almost fell down.
Eighteen Beats of the Night Terrace, called Soul Technique!
Bai Qi Hong seems crazy, but his methods are really extraordinary. While attacking Sha LiFei, he can also interfere with the field control.
But what surprised her was that Sha LiFei at the window still had clear eyes and showed no signs of being injured.
There was even a hint of sarcasm in the corner of his mouth.
What Bai Qi Hong doesn't know is that Li Yan got a Buddhist Treasure bracelet from Guangde Temple, with <White-Robed Great Being Divine Mantra> engraved on it. Hundreds of years of incense Attendant can keep people away from inner demons.
Because it can help with spiritual practice, Sha LiFei is always carried with me.
It's more than enough to resist the soul-calling spell.
At the same time, another figure flashed out of the window.
Tall, with white hair and one eye, he is the leader of the Huaiqing Carriage Guild, Xie Huaiqing.
He held a huge Precept Blade with a string of copper bells hanging on it. He pinched the Mystical Gestures in his hand and shook it slightly. At the same time, he recited. "Reveal the truth, uncover the truth, Polo reveals the truth..."
This is also the secret method of Buddhism.
It is the <Prajna Heart Mantra> at the end of the <Heart Sutra>.
Xie Huaiqing's Daoism is naturally not as good as Bai Qi Hong's, but once the spell comes out, it will interfere with the soul-calling technique after all.
He was originally hiding in the dark to help Sha LiFei protect the law.
But in this situation, we can only take action.
The streets below were also in a war situation.
Ghost Zhong Kui Situ Qian originally wanted to cooperate with Bai Qi Hong's attack, but he frowned and looked at the carriage shop.
I saw a person slowly walking out of the broken door of the carriage shop. He was tall and thin, dressed in green clothes, and the facial features on his face were slowly changing.
Sometimes he becomes an old man, sometimes he becomes a young man.
It is none other than Chengdu underworld Chief, Faceless Young Master.
"Acrobatic Arts Sect's face-changing technique?"
Ghost Zhong Kui Situ Qian saw it and immediately sneered, "I heard that you are the 'An Zuo Zi' of Chengdu Bee, Hemp, Swallow, Sparrow four-door. It seems to be more than that, but after all, it is just a charlatan and can only deceive ordinary people."
"Small skills are also skills, as long as they can kill people."
Faceless Young Master's facial features are constantly changing. If you look carefully at the many acupuncture points on his face, you can see that there are tiny needles that are growing and shortening.
At the same time, with a shake of his hand, two steel awls appeared, and he said in a cold voice, "Last time you Ghost Opera Troupe relied on the large number of people and caused heavy losses to me. This time I want to see what you are really capable of!"
"Hahaha... as you wish!"
Ghost Zhong Kui Situ Qian laughed, held up the leather umbrella in his hand, and spun quickly. The five little ghosts around him were tumbling close, lying on the ground with their hands and feet.
And Situ Qian jumped on top of them.
But seeing the black mist billowing up, his figure suddenly disappeared.
"Five Ghosts Escape Technique!"
Faceless Young Master was startled, jumped up, used a Azure Dragon Emerges from Water movement technique, and then twisted around.
Phew!
Two steel cones roared out and shot to the left.
There, the black mist surged, and Situ Qian appeared.
He was also a little surprised when Faceless Young Master found his bearings. He moved his leather umbrella to the left and right, swung the steel cone away, and sneered, "You have some skills, but none of you can escape today!"
Bang bang!
In the distance, the sound of gunfire continued.
But it was those Black Feather Guard who pulled the trigger.
Faceless Young Master looked at it, and his face suddenly turned gloomy.
The most important thing in the assault plan he arranged was speed, but due to interference from Bai Qi Hong's soul-calling technique, those fellow Jianghu comrades were a step too late.
This step is the difference between life and death!
