Luo nine needles

Chapter 255

Following this shout, several people appeared in the quiet inn and looked towards the wall.

On the fence, or in other words, there are strange shelves embedded in the fence, like a raised bed. There are no bedding curtains on this bed, only rows of sharp arrows. If the officers and soldiers outside can see clearly, It will feel a bit like the bed crossbows that are common in their barracks.

But it has a range that even bed crossbows can't reach.

If they are real officers and soldiers.

Chen Shi sat on it, looking back at the girl who was turning the winch behind her.

The girl is small and thin, but she can turn a winch that is bigger than she looks.

"Hey, little cat, I'm the one who handles archery, why don't you call me amazing?" Chen Shi asked.

The girl stared: "My name is A Mao, not a little cat."

Chen Shi said, "It's not all cats."

The girl didn't argue with him childishly, she just looked at Qi Xing standing in the courtyard: "If sister Qi Xing hadn't fixed this, no matter how good you are, it would be useless."

Qixing said: "It's also because the guards here are powerful, and the mechanism is well preserved, otherwise I won't be able to repair a new one no matter how powerful I am."

Everyone looked at another person, an old man with gray hair, who was carrying a bundle of firewood to the kitchen.

Hearing what Qi Xing said, he stopped and said respectfully, "Miao Zan, the sect leader, has nothing to do with me, it's the great sage."

One of Mo Sheng's skills is organs. These organs can be used for daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, and more are used for military equipment. When Mohism was flourishing, cities in all countries regarded the Mohist city as a treasure. , Where the Mohist disciples are, there are often institutions.

When Mohism declined and Mohism fell into the rivers and lakes, the establishment of Mohist institutions became less and less, and became more and more secretive, and even disappeared after the chaos in Jin Dynasty.

Who would have thought that this deserted inn by the roadside turned out to be an institution.

Although the walls of this inn are intact, the house is dilapidated. There is only a stooped old man guarding it. There are people staying there, who don’t know what to ask. They are deaf, dumb and demented. It’s no different from sleeping in the wild here.

In recent years, some Mohists passed by, and when they saw the sign, they kept silent about their identities, and the old man also liked to ignore them, until Mohism gathered here one after another.

There is a young man carrying firewood on a pole but does not seem to intend to sell it, there is an old man who claims to sell tea with his granddaughter in a cart, there is a silent knight with an iron hand, and there is a cripple who got out of the cart and shook the cart Old man, there is a girl riding alone...

They came one after another, greeted each other, stayed and did not leave, obviously they knew each other and were summoned by someone.

Hearing a name that kept appearing, the old man couldn't help but ask, "Who is Seven Star?"

It was late at night last night, the dilapidated house was filled with firelight and these people were talking and laughing, and it looked lively. The old man was still cooking hot vegetables in a pot. Hearing the old man's question, some of them were surprised and some sighed. .

"There are still people who don't know who Miss Seven Star is?"

"It can be seen that my ink door still hasn't really recovered, and the message transmission is still blocked."

Although the old man hadn't dealt with people for a long time, he still had a temper. He was about to get angry and said, is there anyone in Momen that everyone should know?

"It's the head." The girl Ah Mao shouted, holding up a wooden stick and waving it, "Our new head of the Mo Sect, a very powerful head."

The old man was stunned, the head...
The Mo Sect actually has a new head?
He was surprised and a little inexplicably irritable. Although the Mo sect was defeated, not just anyone can be the master. Just as he was about to continue asking, the knight with an iron hand suddenly stood up and looked outside.

"Here comes the master."

The old man looked over subconsciously, only to feel that his dizzy eyes had become even more dizzy, and saw a figure rushing in like an arrow, which seemed to engulf the night wind between heaven and earth, and the torch danced and swayed. Everyone will be torn apart.

But in an instant the night wind dispersed and the torch stopped beating, and the world returned to peace.

It seemed that it was just an illusion before, but it was definitely not an illusion. The old man saw more people in the hall. It was a young girl in Tsing Yi, with black hair and a face as fair as jade. It's like standing here all the time.

"Sister Qixing—" the girl was the first to jump up and shout, rushing towards the girl.

The girl didn't seem to know how to hold the child, so she simply caught the child and picked it up.

The girl giggled.

Others also surrounded the girl, and the room was once again bustling.

"It's coming so fast."

"I thought it would take a few more days."

"Miss Qixing, long time no see—Amao, come down quickly!"

This is the new head, so young?But it seemed that everyone was familiar with her. The old man stood there and looked at the surrounded woman. Which elder or junior of everyone?

He lowered his gaze, whatever, Momen has already disbanded, whoever wants to be in charge can be in charge, he is not interested in paying attention to it, but just about to leave, he heard the woman's voice.

"There are officers and soldiers surrounding here."

……

……

"Officers and soldiers?" Wei Dongjia asked. "Could it be that our whereabouts have been leaked?"

"I have never been questioned by officers and soldiers during my journey," Hua Ling said.

Chief Meng Xi also nodded: "There are many thieves among Mo Xia, but the government has never stopped them along the way."

Chen Shi sneered: "But the Chief Inspector knows our movements. Huo deliberately let us leave the capital and then got rid of us."

Qixing shook his head decisively: "He won't."

Chen Shi's voice choked, so he believed in Huo Lian.

"I said these people were officers and soldiers because of their attire, but as you said, there was no movement from the government along the way, and these soldiers and horses seemed to appear suddenly." Qixing said, "If the imperial court really dispatched troops, it would be impossible to be so silent …”

"So they are not officers and soldiers?" Wei Dongjia took the words and asked.

"But these people's horses and equipment are real." Qixing said again, "Even if they are not officers and soldiers, they must have something to do with them."

Chen Shijiang smashed the shoulder pole in his hand: "It doesn't matter what his background is, it's because he came from a bad place."

Meng Xichang nodded: "Everyone leave immediately, I will deal with the aftermath."

His eyes looked at the old and small wheeled carts in the hall, thin...

"Don't look at me." Chen Shi waved the pole in his hand, "Your iron hand may not be able to carry this pole of mine."

Meng Xichang smiled, looked past him, and then looked at Qixing: "I know that you are also very powerful, but the Great Wall of the North cannot do without you, you should hurry on your way, don't delay because of these small hours, me and This brother stays with them."

Qi Xing shook his head: "Those people have surrounded this place silently, it would be dangerous for everyone to go out."

That's true, so what Meng Xi said about dealing with the aftermath is actually to lure them away and buy time and opportunity for everyone to escape.

"We can't escape, the casualties are huge." Qixing said, "The best way is to defeat them."

crush?

"How many are there?" Meng Xichang asked.

Qixing said, "About a hundred people."

Hundreds of people... Regardless of whether they are real officers or soldiers, not only Chief Meng Xi, but even Chen Shi glanced at the room. There are only seven of them here, and they are old, young, and disabled...
"What do you look at? I'm disabled, but I'm not a waste." Wei Dongjia said angrily, shaking the armrest with both hands, and the iron sword popped out from the front and back of the wheelbarrow, "Do you believe that I have killed more people than the two of you?"

Chen Shi pouted.

"Yes, there are many ways to kill people." The old tea seller said with a smile, "Don't look down on us old people."

Ah Mao also made faces at Chen Shi: "There are still children."

Qixing looked at everyone, smiled again, and said, "This time what everyone has to do is not to fight desperately, but to defend the city."

Defend the city?What kind of city can be defended in this wilderness?Chen Shi and the others were puzzled for a moment, but the old man in the inn who had been silent all this time raised his head, and Qi Xing also looked at him.

"This should be one of Momen's organs." Qixing said, "Excuse me, are all the organs still there?"

Office?

Chen Shi and the others were surprised. They had heard about the Mohmen’s institutions, but they rarely saw them. The last time they heard of them, they were lucky enough to take a look at the casting pool in Jindi. They didn’t expect such an inconspicuous place to exist?

There was also a hint of surprise in the old man's eyes: "How do you know?"

Qi Xing said: "Because I am the head."

The inheritance of the head will pass on many secrets of the Mo sect, but first the head died in a hurry, so where is the inheritance.

Maybe I heard from the elders in the family that although the agency is a secret of the Mo sect, it is not only the head of the sect who knows it. The old man stopped asking. .

"Is there a flue?"

The old man froze for a moment and nodded.

"Is it possible to refuse a horse?"

The old man nodded again.

"Is there a moat for the moat?"

The old man nodded in a daze.

"Is the hanging door tired and ready?"

Hearing the questioning, the expression on the old man's face became more and more serious, and he stood up straight. When he heard the "transfer machine", he hesitated a bit.

"Go back to Ms. ...," he said. "There is a trans-transmitter, but one of the bearings is broken."

Qixing snorted, and asked, "Do you have any preparations?"

The old man nodded: "Yes."

Qixing said, "I'll fix it."

The old man was surprised again, even if he knew where the organ was, he would still repair it?real or fake?Waiting to see Qixing sit down with his own eyes, quickly carve out new bearings with wood, and embed them into the transfer machine with perfect fit. With the rotation of the winch, the transfer machine that has not been moved for many years slowly rises from the enclosure.

Without any hesitation, the old man leaned over and saluted heavily: "Thank you, Sect Leader."

Thinking of that moment and thinking of hearing the sound of dozens of arrows piercing the air from the shooting machine, and the noise of the army formation of soldiers and horses scattered in the distance, his heart was stirred again.

"They changed their formation, scattered and attacked—"

The roof is fluttering like a flag clinging to a high pole, and the flower bell that is in charge of guarding with a telescope shouts.

Accompanied by this shout, the people in the courtyard looked solemn again.

Qixing looked towards the kitchen: "Old tea man, is the fire ready?"

The voice of the old tea seller came from the house: "Okay, the smoke has burned enough."

Amao jumped and shouted: "I'll blow the wind—"

……

……

The sun was getting brighter, and the chaotic soldiers had calmed down. They dragged the wounded soldiers and horses away, looked at the arrows all over the ground beyond the range of recognition, and looked at the inn in the distance where the walls had no weapons. The atmosphere was angry and dignified.

"That's just a bed crossbow, the bed crossbow can't move, spread it apart—" shouted the leader.

The soldiers spread out and formed wild goose wings. Although some people may die under the fierce arrows when they charge forward, not everyone will be unlucky. As long as they charge forward and reach the outside of the inn, no matter how powerful the weapons are, there will be no threat.

The drum noise sounded again, and the horseshoes stomped forward.

But before walking a few steps, there was no bed crossbow exposed on the fence, only the weeds in front were shaking, like a breeze blowing, there was smoke rising, first curling up, and then like a pot of water boiling, countless smoke gurgled from the ground Emerging, it seems that a curtain has been drawn in front of my eyes.

The soldiers and horses walking in the front didn't care at first, but they just noticed the smell and were still wondering what it was, when the horses under them neighed and swung their hoofs wildly, the soldiers were instantly thrown off their horses, dizzy.

"Poisonous smoke, cover your mouth and nose—"

"The horse is poisoned—"

"Back up—"

"Back quickly—"
