Lanting prelude
Chapter 63 Desperate
Chapter 63 Desperate
At this moment, Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang, who were covered in bruises, were like two candles in the wind, trying their best to maintain the last light of their lives.
The rain and snow still showed no signs of stopping, and the mountains were gray.
After Pei Tinglong and his entourage arrived at Zangfeng Mountain Villa, they found dozens of corpses scattered all over the place inside and out, and they didn't see half of the living people.Pei Tinglong immediately asked where Luo Biao broke up with Xiao Junmo, but Luo Biao hesitated and refused to speak.Pei Tinglong was furious, kicked him hard, and then ordered his men to search.
Although the rain and snow were heavy and covered many traces, the men still found a few horseshoe prints and some blood in the birch forest in the southeast corner of the villa.Pei Tinglong immediately led people to follow the traces, but unfortunately, when they chased to a three-way intersection, all the traces on the ground disappeared due to rain and snow.
"Where do these two roads lead?"
Pei Tinglong rode his horse and stood at the intersection, squinting at the rain and fog ahead, and asked Xue An beside him.
"On the left is Huaping Mountain, and on the right is Yuzhu Peak." Xue An replied.
Pei Tinglong thought for a while: "According to my impression, there seem to be more villas in Huaping Mountain than here?"
"Yes General."
"Is there less at Yuzhu Peak?"
"Yes, Yuzhu Peak is high and dangerous, and it's very difficult to walk. It can almost be said that there are few people on the road." Xue An said, "However, my subordinates remember that there is a temple in the depression under Yuzhu Peak."
"Temple?" Pei Tinglong's eyes lit up, "What temple?"
"It seems to be called... Lingjiu Temple."
Pei Tinglong thought about it, and smiled triumphantly: "It seems that this Lingjiu Temple is also a den of thieves."
"What do you mean, General?"
"You think, where can Xiao Junmo go with a comatose Wang Hongyi and many injured men? He neither dared to go to the densely populated Huaping Mountain, nor dared to climb the high and dangerous Yuzhu Peak. Isn’t it the Lingjiu Temple that came down?” Pei Tinglong looked at the mountain road on the right, with a look of determination on his face, “If my prediction is correct, this Lingjiu Temple must be one of their strongholds!”
Xue An suddenly said: "The general is wise."
Pei Tinglong turned his head and glanced at Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao, and saw that they both looked sad, and couldn't help laughing a few times: "Dieyi, Luo Biao, don't be downcast, we are going to meet General Xiao soon, fight now!" Get up!"
After finishing speaking, Pei Tinglong raised his horsewhip and flicked it hard. The mount suffered pain and immediately galloped out like an arrow off the string.
With the beginning of the rain and snow, the scenery in the mountains became clearer little by little.
Lingjiu Temple is low-lying, just like a bowl, embedded in the depression between Bixiao Peak and Yuzhu Peak.
As expected by Pei Tinglong, it is indeed a secret stronghold of the Chongyuan Rudder of the Tianxing League.
The scale of this temple is small, there are no more than twenty resident monks, and the abbot is a young monk with the Dharma name Juekong.He is not only a disciple of Xuan Guan, but also a backbone member of Chong Yuan Tuo.
At this time, Xuanguan and Juekong, with a dozen or so monks, were standing outside the mountain gate, looking anxiously at Bixiao Peak to the west.
After a while, Xiao Junmo and his party finally appeared on the winding mountain road, Xuan Guan had a gratified smile on his face.
Due to the steep and difficult road leading to the mountain depression, and there was a horse-drawn carriage and many wounded in the team, Xiao Junmo walked very slowly. He clearly saw the red wall and green tiles of Lingjiu Temple in front of him, but he still walked for less than half a hour Time came to the mountain gate.
As soon as the carriages and horses stopped, Juekong and his monks immediately stepped forward to help the wounded, including Lao Gu and the two tea doctors.
Zhongnan Mountain has luxuriant plants and many herbs. Juekong and others not only collect and make a variety of medicinal materials on weekdays, but all of them are medical experts.Xiao Junmo had long expected that there would be many casualties in today's battle, so he agreed with Xuan Guan to rush to Lingjiu Temple as soon as the operation was over.In addition, this place is remote and uninhabited, so it is not easy to attract attention, so Xiao Junmo also intends to temporarily detain Wang Hongyi here.
However, Xiao Junmo never expected that at the same time they arrived at Lingjiu Temple, Pei Tinglong and others had already rushed to the halfway up the mountainside of Bixiao Peak.
Standing in the middle of the mountain overlooking, the whole Lingjiu Temple under the mountain can be seen at a glance.
And every move of Xiao Junmo and others was naturally seen by Pei Tinglong.
After secretly tracking down Xiao Junmo for so long, he still found nothing. He never thought that today he and his followers of the Tianxing League could be wiped out, and Wang Hongyi could also be arrested along the way. Pei Tinglong couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy.
"Dieyi, Luo Biao, have you seen it?" Pei Tinglong ordered Xue An to bring the two of them here, without concealing his pride, "General Xiao brought so many friends from the world, shouldn't he come here to burn incense and worship Buddha?" Also, you two might as well guess, is the person lying in that carriage now Wang Hongyi?"
Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao looked at each other, speechless.
Afterwards, Pei Tinglong immediately launched a round-up operation.He ordered Pei San and others to tie up a dozen people including Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao, and guard them on the spot. Then he ordered dozens of crossbowmen to spread out in a half-moon shape, to get as close as possible to Lingjiu Temple, and to occupy the forest. The vantage point, ready to shoot at any time, finally led Xue An and other dozens of cavalry, and galloped down the mountain quickly.
When the rapid sound of horseshoes came rolling from the mountain, Jue Kong and others were helping Lao Gu and other wounded people to walk into the temple, while Xiao Junmo, Chu Lisang, Xuan Guan, Xi Yan and others were still standing beside the carriage and talking—everyone Everyone thought it was safe, so they naturally relaxed their vigilance, but unexpectedly the most terrifying danger came roaring at this moment!
Xiao Junmo raised his head suddenly.
The figure of Pei Tinglong taking the lead immediately caught his eyes.
There was a wry smile on the corner of Xiao Junmo's mouth.
He realized that he had made an unforgivable mistake - he underestimated Pei Tinglong too much!
Right now, the only way to make up for the mistake is to fight to the death.Xiao Junmo slowly drew out the dragon head knife at his waist, and said to Xuan Guan beside him: "Master, let Jue Kong and the others bring the wounded in first."
Xuan Guan immediately waved to Jue Kong.
However, Lao Gu and the others broke free from the support of the monks one after another and limped over.Seeing the soldiers pressing down on the situation, they would never allow the leader to block the knife for them.
When Xiao Junmo saw it, he couldn't help but let out a desolate sigh in his heart.
He knew that Lao Gu and the others were bloody men with iron bones, they would rather die in battle than run away, just like Cai Jiande and Meng Huairang in Jiayugou back then.
"Sang'er, if we were heroic here today, would you have any regrets?" Xiao Junmo asked Chu Lisang beside him as he faced the approaching enemy.
"Do you think I will?" Chu Lisang also showed his weapon and smiled sweetly, "My mother taught me that sacrificing one's life for benevolence, sacrificing one's life for righteousness, is far better than living like a dog; my father also said that people live in the world. When you hold on to the time, you can die and live every step of the way, so you can be fearless."
"Well said!" Xiao Junmo couldn't help being moved, "With these few words alone, you are enough to make most of the men in the world ashamed."
In fact, Chu Lisang still wanted to say something in his heart: if he can fight side by side with the one he loves, no matter whether it is life or death, he will have no regrets!
Pei Tinglong arrived in no time with dozens of riders, and reined in three feet away.The two sides confronted each other silently for a moment, Pei Tinglong glanced at the carriage beside Xiao Junmo, and spoke first: "Xiao Junmo, if my guess is right, the real Wang Hongyi, should he lie there now?"
"Don't you know if you come over and have a look?" Xiao Junmo said lightly.
Of course Pei Tinglong didn't dare to go over, so he smiled coldly: "Xiao Junmo, do you still remember what I said? I said that it won't be long before you will show your original shape. Now that I have done what I said, are you surprised?"
"A wise man will lose a thousand things, and a fool will gain a thousand things." Xiao Junmo said with a sneering smile, "You have lost so many times, you must give you another chance, otherwise our game would be too dull ?”
"Yes, I admit, you beat me a few times." Pei Tinglong said in a dazed voice, "but that's all in the past. Today, you're bound to lose. I'll give you two choices now: [-]. Surrender, plead guilty and submit to the law; second, resist in the corner and kill on the spot. You choose yourself."
"What if I choose neither?"
"Then do you have a third choice?"
"Of course there is."
"Tell me."
"Fight against the wall, live to die."
"Live to die?" Pei Tinglong chuckled, and couldn't help but glance at the wounded around Xiao Junmo, "Why? Just rely on you half-dead brothers from the Heavenly Punishment Alliance?"
Suddenly, Pei Tinglong's eyes glanced over Xuan Guan's face inadvertently, and he was stunned, and blurted out: "Xuan Guan? You are still alive?!"
Xuan Guan smiled lightly: "Yes, the poor monk did not die, which disappointed General Pei."
Pei Tinglong was stunned for a long while before he laughed and said: "No, I'm not disappointed, I'm very pleasantly surprised. I'm very pleasantly surprised to be able to take all of you gangsters from the Heavenly Punishment Alliance here today!"
"Pei Tinglong, don't talk nonsense anymore." Xiao Junmo clenched the dragon head knife in his hand, "Anyway, you and I can only walk out of Zhongnan Mountain today. If you want me to say, let's settle it ourselves."
"You mean, let me fight you one-on-one?"
"If you have the guts."
Pei Tinglong was silent for a while, then shook his head and smiled: "Xiao Junmo, I won't be fooled by you. It's a common man's courage to fight you one-on-one, I'm not that stupid."
"Since you are so afraid of me, then hide back and stand so close, it will only make the brothers laugh."
Xiao Junmo didn't say this sentence standing still, but rushed towards Pei Tinglong while speaking, the speed made everyone present dumbfounded.After saying a word, Xiao Junmo jumped up, and the knife in his hand drew an arc in mid-air, and slashed at Pei Tinglong.
In the situation where the enemy is outnumbered, Xiao Junmo can only adopt the tactics of capturing the thief and capturing the king.
Faced with Xiao Junmo's sudden attack, Pei Tinglong was caught off guard, and quickly tilted his body and rolled off the horse.Before he got up from the ground, Xiao Junmo's saber light came again.Pei Tinglong put his hands on the ground and retreated desperately, feeling extremely thrilled and embarrassed at the moment.Fortunately, Xue An and others around him reacted in time, four or five swords were shot at the same time, and Xiao Junmo's sword was blocked from Pei Tinglong's chest.
Immediately afterwards, all the cavalry surrounded them.
But Xiao Junmo not only didn't panic in the siege, but as if he was in the land of no one, he flew up and down with a knife, and cut four or five people off the horse in an instant.
Seeing that Xiao Junmo disrupted the opponent's position with his own strength, Chu Lisang and the others were very excited, and immediately rushed forward.However, at this moment, dozens of crossbow arrows suddenly roared out from the mountains on both sides, and immediately shot down more than a dozen people, including the two wounded Dr. Tea.
In front of the mountain gate of Lingjiu Temple was an open land, without any shelter or obstacles, Chu Lisang and the others undoubtedly became live targets for crossbowmen.
"Back! Back to the temple!" Xiao Junmo yelled violently.
However, if they retreated, it would be tantamount to leaving Xiao Junmo alone on the battlefield.Chu Lisang and the others couldn't help being very anxious, and they were in a dilemma for a while.
The second wave of crossbow arrows struck again.
Everyone had to wave their knives to block.
Crossbow arrows have a shorter range than bows and arrows, but they have a faster firing rate and greater lethality, and people with slightly inferior martial arts cannot resist them at all.In an instant, with the blunt sound of crossbow arrows shooting into the flesh, a puff of blood mist exploded, and the members of the Sky Punishment Alliance fell to the ground one after another.
Xi Yan and Lao Gu's blood boiled immediately, and they rushed towards the woods on both sides with their subordinates.
At the same time, Chu Lisang, Xuan Guan, Jue Kong and others fought their way into the cavalry group.
Lao Gu's road was far away from the woods, so halfway through the charge, a dozen or so men were all shot down.Lao Gu was hit by several arrows, but he still staggered forward, roaring at the top of his lungs.When he finally rushed to the edge of the woods, he was still shot through the chest by a crossbow bolt at close range, and he fell on his back with his eyes wide open.
There were twenty or so people on Xiyan's journey, and they rushed straight to the forest to the west, and more than half of them fell down one after another in the middle.But in the end, Xi Yan managed to enter the woods with four or five brave men.Soon, the sound of crossbowmen in the woods became mute, replaced by the clang of swords and the screams of those crossbowmen.
After Chu Lisang entered the cavalry group, he tried his best to join Xiao Junmo.The two sometimes stand side by side, sometimes leaning back, attacking and defending, and cooperated tacitly, killing six or seven people in the blink of an eye.
The killing in front of the Lingjiu Temple was very dark, while Huan Dieyi, Luo Biao and others were tied up in the middle of the mountain and could not move.
They were each tied to the tree trunk, each of them was separated by a distance of ten feet, and there was no way to rescue each other.
"Marshal Huan, what should we do?" Luo Biao blushed with anxiety.
Huan Dieyi next to him pouted nonchalantly: "This is a good thing you and Xiao Junmo did, don't ask me."
Luo Biao sighed, but there was nothing he could do.
Huan Dieyi struggled a few times to loosen the rope, then slid down the tree trunk, then sat down on the ground with his head against the tree trunk, and simply closed his eyes.
Pei Sanou, who was standing on the edge of the cliff watching the battle, turned around and seeing her so carefree, couldn't help but walked over and said with a smile, "Hey, Huan Dieyi, your lover Xiao is about to die, and you're not in a hurry?"
Huan Dieyi rolled his eyes at him: "Go away, this brigade commander is in a hurry to none of your business!"
"Yo ho, it's quite arrogant!" Pei San smiled lewdly and approached her, "Huan Dieyi, why don't you just follow me, I'll go and plead with General You to let him let you go."
As soon as the words fell, a mouthful of saliva was spat on his face.
Pei San became furious and drew out his saber in a snap.
"Pei San!" Luo Biao snarled, "Are you crazy? Marshal Huan is the General's niece. If you dare to hurt her hair, be careful that the General will peel off your skin!"
Pei San thought about it, but finally he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he walked away cursing.
Huan Dieyi closed her eyes again.
Luo Biao sighed heavily: "Oh, you only see people's hearts in times of adversity! My brother is in trouble, but he can still ignore it and sleep. How ruthless this person must be. I am really convinced!"
"Luo Biao," Huan Dieyi said lazily, eyes still closed, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
"Old Master Confucius said it well, only women and villains are hard to raise!"
"I can't see that you, Luo Biao, can still remember Confucius' words."
"Just remember this sentence, and forget everything else."
"No wonder you can't marry a wife in your thirties. I only remember this sentence."
"Hey, Huan Dieyi, you can't be so unkind, can you?" Luo Biao was angry, "Even if we can't go down to save him, we can't be as peaceful as you..."
Suddenly, Luo Biao was stunned, dumbfounded.
Huan Dieyi let go of the rope silently, then tiptoed to behind him, and said in a low voice, "Keep cursing, don't stop."
"You...how did you untie it?" Luo Biao was surprised and delighted.
"I tell you to continue scolding!" Huan Dieyi emphasized, "Don't make them suspicious."
Luo Biao came to his senses and quickly said loudly: "Huan Dieyi, has your conscience been eaten by a dog? Who dares to marry you, a cruel, ruthless, selfish woman like you? Marrying you will ruin eight lifetimes." Blood mold! I think you will definitely not be able to marry in this life..."
"Does it have to be so ugly?" Huan Dieyi said coldly.
"How can swearing be nice?" Luo Biao said the words, only to realize that the rope on his body had been untied, and he quickly smiled, "Don't get me wrong, it's not because you scolded me for not being able to marry a wife that I retaliated. I really can't find a wife." What curse words..."
"Have you heard of 'The more you paint, the darker'?" Huan Dieyi gave him a hard look, and then went to save the others.
Luo Biao also quickly untied a few of his men, during which he caught a glimpse and found that Huan Dieyi's wrists were dripping with blood, and then turned to look at the tree she was tied to just now, and saw a sharp-edged stone on the ground , also covered with blood.
Luo Biao suddenly realized, and couldn't help slapping himself, calling himself a jerk repeatedly.
As soon as the two unleashed six or seven of their subordinates, Pei San and the others found out and rushed over immediately, and the two sides immediately started fighting...
The battle at the foot of the mountain was extremely tragic.
At the beginning, there were more than 20 people on Xiao Junmo's side and more than 30 people on Pei Tinglong's side. It could have been a tie, but the problem was that the crossbowmen in the woods to the east kept casting cold arrows.Although they also accidentally injured a few of their own people due to the chaotic battle situation, most of the crossbow arrows still effectively shot and killed the opponent.
After the two sides fought for half an hour, only him, Chu Lisang, Xuan Guan and two or three other subordinates were left on Xiao Junmo's side, while Jue Kong and his monks were completely wiped out.In addition, both Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang were slightly injured, while Xuan Guan was hit by two arrows, greatly weakening his fighting power.
On Pei Tinglong's side, there are still fifteen or sixteen people, and there are more than a dozen crossbowmen in the woods, it is obvious that they have won the battle.
Xiao Junmo kept trying to get close to Pei Tinglong, but was always blocked by Xue An and others, and Pei Tinglong also consciously stayed on the periphery.Seeing that the battle was coming to an end, the crossbowmen in the woods emerged one by one, forming skirmishers and approaching Xiao Junmo and the others.
Another round of crossbow arrows was fired, killing the last few members of the Heavenly Punishment Alliance, and two more went straight to Chu Lisang's back.She was fighting with three soldiers without realizing it.Xiao Junmo was entangled by Xue An and others, unable to get away, so he could only shout "Be careful, Sang'er", but the arrow arrived in an instant, and there was no way to dodge it.At a critical juncture, a figure next to him flew forward, and the two arrows pierced his chest.
Xuan Guan fell backward heavily, splashing the snow on the ground.
Fine flakes of snow flew in mid-air and landed on his face one after another.
Xuan Guan looked up at the gray sky and slowly closed his eyes.
"Mage! Mage!" Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang uttered heart-piercing shouts at the same time.
Their shouts soared into the sky, echoing among the towering peaks around them.
So far, apart from Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang, the rest on the battlefield are all enemies.The approaching crossbowmen threw away their crossbows one after another and pulled out their sabers—although the round of shooting just now had exhausted their last arrows, but now even if they fought hand to hand, Pei Tinglong's side could rely on their absolute superiority in strength to easily Kill Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang without hesitation.
The final moment has come.
Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang were back to back, their bodies and faces were covered with blood.
"Sang'er, where are we going to live in seclusion, have you figured it out yet?" Xiao Junmo asked.
Chu Lisang thought for a while: "How about going back to our Yi Que?"
"Well, it's a good idea. But I have to declare in advance that if I'm just an ordinary neighbor, I won't go."
Chu Lisang smiled: "Then what do you want to do?"
"Longmen wins in shape, Yique is romantic, if you don't become a couple of gods and immortals, how can you be worthy of that beautiful mountain and river?"
"Beautiful thinking!" Chu Lisang's face flushed a little, "Have you proposed to me yet?"
"As long as you agree, I'll beg now."
"You are so unreasonable. You haven't asked, how can I agree?"
Just as Xiao Junmo was about to say something, Pei Tinglong suddenly stepped forward and smiled grimly: "Xiao Junmo, our game is almost over, do you have anything else to say?"
"I just want to say that you are not worthy to be my opponent." Xiao Junmo said lightly.
Pei Tinglong chuckled: "Xiao Junmo, the biggest problem with you is that you are too conceited. You have always looked down on me, so you will be paralyzed and underestimate the enemy, and finally die at my hands! You say you die, you die, but you still want to make people look beautiful Miss Chu buried with you, what a waste of money!"
"Pei Tinglong, shut up your dog mouth!" Chu Lisang said angrily, "A person who hides behind his back in battle is also worthy of being a general of the imperial court? I don't think you are even worthy of being a man! How dare you have the face to speak nonsense here ,you disgust me!"
Pei Tinglong became furious and could only yell out through gritted teeth: "Kill them!"
Xue An and others immediately besieged them, and those crossbowmen had also arrived just now, and the power balance between the two sides became even more disparity.
This was the final battle of life and death, Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang both tried their best.A burst of knife light flashed, and clusters of blood spattered.In an instant, the red-eyed pair of deadly Shuangsha cut down another six or seven people.But at the same time, Xiao Junmo was stabbed again, and Chu Lisang was stabbed twice.As the blood gradually stained their armor and clothes, their physical strength gradually weakened, their footsteps began to falter, and their movements became more and more sluggish.
Seeing that the final victory was within easy reach, Pei Tinglong, who had been conserving his strength, finally joined the battle group.
At this moment, Xiao Junmo, who was at the end of his strength, was no longer his opponent.
As soon as Pei Tinglong came up, he spared no effort to attack, his sword skills were sharp, and his moves were deadly.Xiao Junmo couldn't resist, and retreated step by step, forced to distance himself from Chu Lisang.The two were immediately divided and surrounded, Pei Tinglong and others focused on Xiao Junmo, Xue An and others besieged Chu Lisang...
Snowflakes fell again at some point, and the leaden sky shrouded the valley like an impenetrable pot lid.At this moment, Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang, who were covered in bruises, were like two candles in the wind, trying their best to maintain the last light of their lives.
In the woods to the west, Xi Yan, who was wounded in many places, was fighting three soldiers alone.
Halfway up the mountain, Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao were still fighting with Pei San and the others.
They are all in a desperate situation, and they can only fight on their own until they die...
Just when Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang were on the verge of despair, Pei Tinglong stopped suddenly, and at the same time ordered Xue An and others to stop, and then said arrogantly: "Xiao Junmo, for the sake of our colleagues, I will give you a Chance, as long as you kneel down and admit that you lost, I'll let Chu Lisang go, how about it?"
Before Xiao Junmo could react, Chu Lisang said sharply: "Jun Mo, don't listen to him, he just wants to humiliate you! We would rather die standing up than live on our knees!"
Of course Xiao Junmo knew that Pei Tinglong wanted to humiliate him, and he also knew that this guy would not be trustworthy, but even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance to save Chu Lisang, he would never give up.
So, Xiao Junmo bent his right leg and knelt down.
"Jun Mo, stand up! I don't want you to save me like this!" Chu Lisang shouted anxiously and angrily.
Xiao Junmo turned a deaf ear.
Pei Tinglong looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Xiao Junmo, what's the matter with kneeling on one leg? Can you be a little sincere? What I want are your two knees! Do you hear me? Two!"
Xiao Junmo trembled slightly, the veins on his forehead suddenly popped up, and the masseter muscle in his jaw twitched.
"Not only do you kneel down on two legs, but you also kowtow to me, say loudly that you have lost, and then beg me to let you go! Do you understand? Kneeling, kowtowing, admitting defeat, and begging for mercy are all necessary!"
"Pei Tinglong, do you count what you say?" Xiao Junmo seemed to be shaken.
"Of course it counts!" Pei Tinglong beamed with joy, "So many brothers are listening, how could I break my promise?"
"Let her go first, and I will do as you say." Xiao Junmo raised his head and looked at Pei Tinglong.
Pei Tinglong rolled his eyes and chuckled: "You are really suspicious. Forget it, I will help you!"
Chu Lisang has been wounded in many places and her body is bleeding profusely. Where else can she escape in this cold and barren mountain? !Thinking so, Pei Tinglong signaled Xue An and the others to get out of the way.
But Chu Lisang remained motionless.
"Sang'er, go!" Xiao Junmo shouted loudly, "There's no need for us both to die here!"
"I won't leave, I will die with you!" Chu Lisang said firmly.
"You are confused! Only by surviving can you avenge me, Cai Jiande, Meng Huairang, Xuan Guan, Lao Gu and all the dead brothers! Did you hear that?" Xiao Junmo shouted hoarsely with his blood red eyes open.
Chu Lisang was shocked, and two lines of tears welled up in his eyes.
After standing there blankly for a while, Chu Lisang took a deep look at Xiao Junmo, then turned around resolutely, and staggered towards the mountain path when he came, but turned his head every three steps and walked very slowly.
"What a pair of fateful mandarin ducks who will never give up, it's really tear-jerking!" Pei Tinglong sneered, gave Xue An a wink, implying that he should not let people run away, and then turned to Xiao Junmo, "I have fulfilled my promise, now it's time Are you?"
Xiao Junmo looked at Chu Lisang's receding back, and suddenly grabbed a handful of snow and threw it at Pei Tinglong's eyes.Unexpectedly, Pei Tinglong was on guard, turned sideways, and sneered loudly: "You don't keep your promise!"
"You don't have to tell beasts about your credit!" Xiao Junmo stood up, and the knife in his hand flashed a cold light, and it stabbed directly into Pei Tinglong's left chest.
In fact, the handful of snow just now was purely Xiao Junmo's trick.He intentionally let Pei Tinglong notice it, and made a dodging movement, and the direction of his blade was exactly where Pei Tinglong moved, so Pei Tinglong had no way to avoid it.
Pei Tinglong let out a scream.
However, at the same time as stabbing this knife, Xiao Junmo was ready to die with Pei Tinglong.Because there were still six or seven soldiers around at this time, Xiao Junmo insisted on taking Pei Tinglong straight, which was equivalent to exposing his sides and back to them.
Sure enough, the group of soldiers attacked almost at the same time, and six or seven gleaming dragon head knives slashed at Xiao Junmo one after another.
As long as these weapons fall, Xiao Junmo will definitely die!
At the very moment, more than a dozen sharp arrows pierced through the air without any warning, and instantly sank into the bodies of these six or seven soldiers.Xiao Junmo had no time to be amazed, and quickly drew his knife, spinning sharply on the spot, the blade drew an arc, and slit the throats of these soldiers one by one.Even if they are not killed by the arrow, this knife is enough to kill them instantly.
Pillars of blood gushed out from those gaping throats.
This sudden scene shocked Xue An and others.They had already chased after Chu Lisang, but seeing this change, they had no choice but to turn around and come back to rescue Pei Tinglong.
At this time, Xiao Junmo also saw clearly the group of rescuers who "fall from the sky".
From the direction of Yuzhu Peak, that is, in the woods to the northeast, a group of knights are galloping towards this side at the fastest speed. There are forty or fifty of them, half of them are holding bows and arrows, riding on horseback while running. Shooting, the leader turned out to be a heroic woman in military uniform.
After seeing her face clearly, Xiao Junmo could hardly believe his eyes.
This woman is actually Hua Ling'er!
The situation suddenly reversed, at this time Xue An and the dozen or so soldiers under him became living targets instead, four or five people were shot to the ground in the blink of an eye.Seeing that the general situation was over, Xue An had no choice but to ignore the seriously injured Pei Tinglong, turned around and ran towards the nearest woods to the east.However, after running about ten steps, a horizontal knife whizzed towards him, pierced his back impartially, and pierced out from his chest.
Xue An ran a few steps forward according to his inertia, before he fell heavily on the snow.
After Chu Lisang threw the knife far away, he finally collapsed due to exhaustion of physical strength...
Pei Tinglong crawled hard on the snow, with a long trail of blood trailing behind him.
There was a circle of people around him, of course they were all his enemies.
At this moment, all his subordinates have been wiped out, leaving no one left.
Xiao Junmo's knife was originally aimed at his heart, but due to lack of energy, he lost his normal aim, and the blade deviated half an inch from his heart, which only caused serious injuries to him, but was not fatal.Pei Tinglong climbed forward a few more feet, and was finally blocked by a human wall, so he had to raise his head, and saw Xiao Junmo standing in front of him with Chu Lisang supported, and Huan Dieyi, Luo Biao, and Xi Yan standing beside him covered in bloodstains, On the other side stood Hua Ling'er and his subordinates, including the Pang Bur whose arm he had cut off.
"You plan to crawl back to Chang'an just like this?" Xiao Junmo smiled softly.
Pei Tinglong smiled bitterly and vomited a mouthful of blood.
Hua Ling'er gave his subordinates a wink, and immediately two strong men came over, set up Pei Tinglong one on the left and one on the right, and made him kneel in front of everyone.
"Brother Xiao, let me go, I...I won't say anything." Pei Tinglong drooped his head and said weakly.
Xiao Junmo handed Chu Lisang to Huan Dieyi and Hua Linger, took a step forward, squatted down, and looked at him: "I'm curious about one thing, you did a good job in the military department, why did you go to Xuan Jiawei coming?"
"My eldest grandson told me that I can...make contributions here."
"But it turns out that Xuanjiawei is not suitable for you."
"Yes, Brother Xiao is right." Pei Tinglong raised his eyelids and smiled obsequiously, "So, you let me go, I will resign when I get back, and we will never mess with each other in the future."
Xiao Junmo looked at him and didn't speak.
"Brother Xiao, look, I have kneeled down to you now, and I have two knees." Pei Tinglong was terrified by his silence, "I can still kowtow to you, admit defeat, beg for mercy, you can ask me to do anything... "
"No need, I'm not you."
"Yes, yes, brother Xiao is a chivalrous gentleman, and there are many adults, so you don't need to be as knowledgeable as a villain like me."
"Of course I don't have the same knowledge as you." Xiao Junmo stood up and said coldly, "It's a pity that Cai Jiande, Meng Huairang, Xuan Guan, Lao Gu, all the righteous men of the Heavenly Punishment League who died in your hands are watching from the sky at this moment. You, I want you to give them justice."
Pei Tinglong looked up at Xiao Junmo, various expressions such as fear, hatred, anger, and unwillingness flashed alternately on his face, but in the end there was only a grim expression left: "Xiao Junmo, you can't kill me! I am the grand third-rank general and the nephew of the grandson Xianggong , if you kill me, how will you explain to the Holy Majesty and the court?!"
"I don't need to worry about it, I have my own way." Xiao Junmo said, motioning for the two strong men to let go, and then slowly drew out the knife.
"Pei Tinglong, if you have anything to say to your family, I will definitely bring it for you."
"Xiao Junmo! You can't kill me!" Pei Tinglong roared at the top of his voice, "The Holy Majesty can't spare you, and the grandson can't spare you either..."
"Is that all?" Xiao Junmo frowned, "Is there anything else?"
"Xiao Junmo, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go!"
Xiao Junmo sighed softly, and the dragon head knife drew an arc.
Pei Tinglong's head flew into the air, his open mouth seemed to be still screaming...
Lingjiu Temple stored a lot of herbs to stop bleeding and heal wounds. After dressing up, Chu Lisang, Huan Dieyi, Luo Biao, and Xi Yan fell asleep in their rooms.
Xiao Junmo didn't have time to rest, because Hua Ling'er had just applied the medicine for him, and someone came to report: Wang Hongyi woke up.
Wang Hongyi was detained alone in a firewood room.When Xiao Junmo walked in, he saw him half lying against the wall, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was still in a coma.
"I've been asleep for a long time, and you still don't want to wake up?" Xiao Junmo came over and kicked his feet.
Wang Hongyi opened his eyelids and smiled: "You saved me?"
"Because of you, more than 100 people died today." Xiao Junmo's expression darkened, "People like you are really a disaster in this world!"
Wang Hongyi laughed loudly: "If that's the case, why do you still save me? Wouldn't it be a one-shot for me?"
"You ask knowingly." Xiao Junmo knelt down and stared into his eyes.
"Oh? I don't quite understand what you mean."
"You know."
Wang Hongyi met Xiao Junmo's gaze, and suddenly acted suddenly: "By the way, I remembered. A few days ago, my subordinates met two lost women in Huaizhen Square. Out of good intentions, I took them in. Xiao Lang is saving me now because he wants to inquire about their whereabouts?"
"Since you and I know it well, there is no need to talk nonsense. Where are they?"
Wang Hongyi shook his head: "I can't tell you that."
"But you are in my hands now."
Wang Hongyi looked seriously at the rope tied to his body, and nodded: "That's true, but what can I do if I'm in your hands?"
"Notify your subordinates and replace them."
"Substitution?" Wang Hongyi chuckled, "What a pity!"
"What a pity?"
"Let me tell you the truth, before I went out this morning, I told the people under my command that if I make any mistakes, or if I don't return within twelve hours, those two women... will be killed! "
Xiao Junmo was startled suddenly: "You are lying!"
"Try it if you don't believe me." Wang Hongyi smiled triumphantly, "I am a person who often tells lies, but this time, I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me, lock me up for twelve hours, and you will see me again tomorrow." Until that Xu... no, by tomorrow, you will never see your mother again!"
Wang Hongyi emphasized the last two words.
Bang, Xiao Junmo punched him hard in the face.Wang Hongyi's eyes were full of gold stars, and he almost fainted, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.He spat out bloody saliva and said with a smile, "I can't kill me with this kind of beating. As I said just now, you'd better give me a knife, so we can both have a good time."
Xiao Junmo grabbed his collar suddenly, his eyes seemed to burst into flames.
Wang Hongyi was always smiling.
After a long time, Xiao Junmo pushed him hard and let go.The back of Wang Hongyi's head hit the wall, and he gasped again in pain.
"Xiao Junmo, I know you're very angry, but this won't solve any problems." Wang Hongyi looked at him, "You are a smart person, you should know why I kidnapped your mother."
Xiao Junmo stared at him without speaking.
"Xiao Lang, in fact, there is no need for you and me to be in the same situation." Wang Hongyi continued, "For so many years, I have been looking for Prince Yin's orphan, but I never thought that this orphan is you! You know, At that time, Prince Yin and I... No, your father and I were of the same mind and wanted to create a great cause together, but in the end everything was destroyed by the ambitious Li Shimin! He killed your father with cruel, ruthless and despicable methods. And your five brothers took away everything that belonged to your father! Don't you hate him? Don't you want to seek justice? As long as there is still a little man's blood, you should join hands with me , to avenge your father, and take everything back from Li Shimin's hands!"
Xiao Junmo stood up, turned around, and closed his eyes in pain.
He had to admit that Wang Hongyi's words hit his heart to some extent.
Li Shimin is indeed his father-killing enemy.If King Wei killed his adoptive father, and he wanted revenge on King Wei, why did Li Shimin kill his biological father, but he could remain indifferent, and even remained loyal to him? !
"Xiao Lang, think about it carefully. Is Li Shimin our common enemy?" Wang Hongyi said in a heart-to-heart tone, "Your father was my lord back then, and I can treat you as lord today. Let's join forces and kill him." Li Shimin, the only husband who killed his brother and forced his father to usurp the throne, then you can justifiably inherit the throne of the Tang Dynasty, and it was originally your father's..."
"Enough, stop talking." Xiao Junmo suppressed the pain and entanglement in his heart, and turned to look at him, "You keep saying that you want to join hands with me, but you kidnap my mother. Is this the way you treat your allies?"
"Xiao Lang, don't worry, Lingtang has never suffered any grievances from me, I just invited her over as a guest, and I will never treat her badly."
"You let my mother go, maybe I can consider working with you."
Wang Hongyi smiled lightly: "Xiao Lang, it's not that I can't trust you. The situation in Chang'an is so complicated now. If you say you want to cooperate with me now, what if you change your mind tomorrow? So, it's better for Lingtang to stay with me for the time being. Let's finish the big things together, I will not only return the Lingtang personally, but also send another person to you..."
Xiao Junmo heard what he meant, and smiled coldly: "Sang'er is by my side now, why do you need to send it?"
"Yes, yes, I know, I know that Sonny likes you, and you also have a deep affection for her, so you always talk about marriage, right? I am Sonny's biological father, and I said I will send you there It means that I entrust my daughter to you and hope that you will make her happy all her life, am I right?"
Xiao Jun was silent.
He knew that Wang Hongyi at this moment was sincere.
As Wang Hongyi said, the joy from the heart was on his face, and the light of longing flashed in his eyes: "If you become the emperor in the future, then Sang'er will be the queen, right? Isn't this the greatest gift you can give her?" So, whether it is for your father, your mother, yourself, or Sang Er, you should stand with me and deal with Li Shimin together, right?"
"The prerequisite for standing with you is that you must let my mother go."
"This..." Wang Hongyi smiled wryly, "Why did you come back again?"
"Unless you let her go, there's no way you and I can reach any consensus."
Wang Hongyi was silent, and his expression gradually turned cold: "I said, if I can't be seen within twelve hours, my subordinates will take action."
"You notify them immediately and cancel the operation."
"Impossible." Wang Hongyi's tone was firm.
Xiao Junmo wished he could rush up and punch him a few more times, but as he said, this wouldn't solve any problems.
Having dealt with Wang Hongyi for such a long time, Xiao Junmo knew very well that this guy's way of doing things has always been unpredictable, and it is difficult to speculate with common sense.What he said about the twelve o'clock is likely to be true, not to scare himself.
How to do?
This is almost a dead end.
Xiao Junmo found helplessly that just as he got out of the desperate situation where his life was hanging by a thread, he fell into an unbreakable deadlock again!
(End of this chapter)
At this moment, Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang, who were covered in bruises, were like two candles in the wind, trying their best to maintain the last light of their lives.
The rain and snow still showed no signs of stopping, and the mountains were gray.
After Pei Tinglong and his entourage arrived at Zangfeng Mountain Villa, they found dozens of corpses scattered all over the place inside and out, and they didn't see half of the living people.Pei Tinglong immediately asked where Luo Biao broke up with Xiao Junmo, but Luo Biao hesitated and refused to speak.Pei Tinglong was furious, kicked him hard, and then ordered his men to search.
Although the rain and snow were heavy and covered many traces, the men still found a few horseshoe prints and some blood in the birch forest in the southeast corner of the villa.Pei Tinglong immediately led people to follow the traces, but unfortunately, when they chased to a three-way intersection, all the traces on the ground disappeared due to rain and snow.
"Where do these two roads lead?"
Pei Tinglong rode his horse and stood at the intersection, squinting at the rain and fog ahead, and asked Xue An beside him.
"On the left is Huaping Mountain, and on the right is Yuzhu Peak." Xue An replied.
Pei Tinglong thought for a while: "According to my impression, there seem to be more villas in Huaping Mountain than here?"
"Yes General."
"Is there less at Yuzhu Peak?"
"Yes, Yuzhu Peak is high and dangerous, and it's very difficult to walk. It can almost be said that there are few people on the road." Xue An said, "However, my subordinates remember that there is a temple in the depression under Yuzhu Peak."
"Temple?" Pei Tinglong's eyes lit up, "What temple?"
"It seems to be called... Lingjiu Temple."
Pei Tinglong thought about it, and smiled triumphantly: "It seems that this Lingjiu Temple is also a den of thieves."
"What do you mean, General?"
"You think, where can Xiao Junmo go with a comatose Wang Hongyi and many injured men? He neither dared to go to the densely populated Huaping Mountain, nor dared to climb the high and dangerous Yuzhu Peak. Isn’t it the Lingjiu Temple that came down?” Pei Tinglong looked at the mountain road on the right, with a look of determination on his face, “If my prediction is correct, this Lingjiu Temple must be one of their strongholds!”
Xue An suddenly said: "The general is wise."
Pei Tinglong turned his head and glanced at Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao, and saw that they both looked sad, and couldn't help laughing a few times: "Dieyi, Luo Biao, don't be downcast, we are going to meet General Xiao soon, fight now!" Get up!"
After finishing speaking, Pei Tinglong raised his horsewhip and flicked it hard. The mount suffered pain and immediately galloped out like an arrow off the string.
With the beginning of the rain and snow, the scenery in the mountains became clearer little by little.
Lingjiu Temple is low-lying, just like a bowl, embedded in the depression between Bixiao Peak and Yuzhu Peak.
As expected by Pei Tinglong, it is indeed a secret stronghold of the Chongyuan Rudder of the Tianxing League.
The scale of this temple is small, there are no more than twenty resident monks, and the abbot is a young monk with the Dharma name Juekong.He is not only a disciple of Xuan Guan, but also a backbone member of Chong Yuan Tuo.
At this time, Xuanguan and Juekong, with a dozen or so monks, were standing outside the mountain gate, looking anxiously at Bixiao Peak to the west.
After a while, Xiao Junmo and his party finally appeared on the winding mountain road, Xuan Guan had a gratified smile on his face.
Due to the steep and difficult road leading to the mountain depression, and there was a horse-drawn carriage and many wounded in the team, Xiao Junmo walked very slowly. He clearly saw the red wall and green tiles of Lingjiu Temple in front of him, but he still walked for less than half a hour Time came to the mountain gate.
As soon as the carriages and horses stopped, Juekong and his monks immediately stepped forward to help the wounded, including Lao Gu and the two tea doctors.
Zhongnan Mountain has luxuriant plants and many herbs. Juekong and others not only collect and make a variety of medicinal materials on weekdays, but all of them are medical experts.Xiao Junmo had long expected that there would be many casualties in today's battle, so he agreed with Xuan Guan to rush to Lingjiu Temple as soon as the operation was over.In addition, this place is remote and uninhabited, so it is not easy to attract attention, so Xiao Junmo also intends to temporarily detain Wang Hongyi here.
However, Xiao Junmo never expected that at the same time they arrived at Lingjiu Temple, Pei Tinglong and others had already rushed to the halfway up the mountainside of Bixiao Peak.
Standing in the middle of the mountain overlooking, the whole Lingjiu Temple under the mountain can be seen at a glance.
And every move of Xiao Junmo and others was naturally seen by Pei Tinglong.
After secretly tracking down Xiao Junmo for so long, he still found nothing. He never thought that today he and his followers of the Tianxing League could be wiped out, and Wang Hongyi could also be arrested along the way. Pei Tinglong couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy.
"Dieyi, Luo Biao, have you seen it?" Pei Tinglong ordered Xue An to bring the two of them here, without concealing his pride, "General Xiao brought so many friends from the world, shouldn't he come here to burn incense and worship Buddha?" Also, you two might as well guess, is the person lying in that carriage now Wang Hongyi?"
Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao looked at each other, speechless.
Afterwards, Pei Tinglong immediately launched a round-up operation.He ordered Pei San and others to tie up a dozen people including Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao, and guard them on the spot. Then he ordered dozens of crossbowmen to spread out in a half-moon shape, to get as close as possible to Lingjiu Temple, and to occupy the forest. The vantage point, ready to shoot at any time, finally led Xue An and other dozens of cavalry, and galloped down the mountain quickly.
When the rapid sound of horseshoes came rolling from the mountain, Jue Kong and others were helping Lao Gu and other wounded people to walk into the temple, while Xiao Junmo, Chu Lisang, Xuan Guan, Xi Yan and others were still standing beside the carriage and talking—everyone Everyone thought it was safe, so they naturally relaxed their vigilance, but unexpectedly the most terrifying danger came roaring at this moment!
Xiao Junmo raised his head suddenly.
The figure of Pei Tinglong taking the lead immediately caught his eyes.
There was a wry smile on the corner of Xiao Junmo's mouth.
He realized that he had made an unforgivable mistake - he underestimated Pei Tinglong too much!
Right now, the only way to make up for the mistake is to fight to the death.Xiao Junmo slowly drew out the dragon head knife at his waist, and said to Xuan Guan beside him: "Master, let Jue Kong and the others bring the wounded in first."
Xuan Guan immediately waved to Jue Kong.
However, Lao Gu and the others broke free from the support of the monks one after another and limped over.Seeing the soldiers pressing down on the situation, they would never allow the leader to block the knife for them.
When Xiao Junmo saw it, he couldn't help but let out a desolate sigh in his heart.
He knew that Lao Gu and the others were bloody men with iron bones, they would rather die in battle than run away, just like Cai Jiande and Meng Huairang in Jiayugou back then.
"Sang'er, if we were heroic here today, would you have any regrets?" Xiao Junmo asked Chu Lisang beside him as he faced the approaching enemy.
"Do you think I will?" Chu Lisang also showed his weapon and smiled sweetly, "My mother taught me that sacrificing one's life for benevolence, sacrificing one's life for righteousness, is far better than living like a dog; my father also said that people live in the world. When you hold on to the time, you can die and live every step of the way, so you can be fearless."
"Well said!" Xiao Junmo couldn't help being moved, "With these few words alone, you are enough to make most of the men in the world ashamed."
In fact, Chu Lisang still wanted to say something in his heart: if he can fight side by side with the one he loves, no matter whether it is life or death, he will have no regrets!
Pei Tinglong arrived in no time with dozens of riders, and reined in three feet away.The two sides confronted each other silently for a moment, Pei Tinglong glanced at the carriage beside Xiao Junmo, and spoke first: "Xiao Junmo, if my guess is right, the real Wang Hongyi, should he lie there now?"
"Don't you know if you come over and have a look?" Xiao Junmo said lightly.
Of course Pei Tinglong didn't dare to go over, so he smiled coldly: "Xiao Junmo, do you still remember what I said? I said that it won't be long before you will show your original shape. Now that I have done what I said, are you surprised?"
"A wise man will lose a thousand things, and a fool will gain a thousand things." Xiao Junmo said with a sneering smile, "You have lost so many times, you must give you another chance, otherwise our game would be too dull ?”
"Yes, I admit, you beat me a few times." Pei Tinglong said in a dazed voice, "but that's all in the past. Today, you're bound to lose. I'll give you two choices now: [-]. Surrender, plead guilty and submit to the law; second, resist in the corner and kill on the spot. You choose yourself."
"What if I choose neither?"
"Then do you have a third choice?"
"Of course there is."
"Tell me."
"Fight against the wall, live to die."
"Live to die?" Pei Tinglong chuckled, and couldn't help but glance at the wounded around Xiao Junmo, "Why? Just rely on you half-dead brothers from the Heavenly Punishment Alliance?"
Suddenly, Pei Tinglong's eyes glanced over Xuan Guan's face inadvertently, and he was stunned, and blurted out: "Xuan Guan? You are still alive?!"
Xuan Guan smiled lightly: "Yes, the poor monk did not die, which disappointed General Pei."
Pei Tinglong was stunned for a long while before he laughed and said: "No, I'm not disappointed, I'm very pleasantly surprised. I'm very pleasantly surprised to be able to take all of you gangsters from the Heavenly Punishment Alliance here today!"
"Pei Tinglong, don't talk nonsense anymore." Xiao Junmo clenched the dragon head knife in his hand, "Anyway, you and I can only walk out of Zhongnan Mountain today. If you want me to say, let's settle it ourselves."
"You mean, let me fight you one-on-one?"
"If you have the guts."
Pei Tinglong was silent for a while, then shook his head and smiled: "Xiao Junmo, I won't be fooled by you. It's a common man's courage to fight you one-on-one, I'm not that stupid."
"Since you are so afraid of me, then hide back and stand so close, it will only make the brothers laugh."
Xiao Junmo didn't say this sentence standing still, but rushed towards Pei Tinglong while speaking, the speed made everyone present dumbfounded.After saying a word, Xiao Junmo jumped up, and the knife in his hand drew an arc in mid-air, and slashed at Pei Tinglong.
In the situation where the enemy is outnumbered, Xiao Junmo can only adopt the tactics of capturing the thief and capturing the king.
Faced with Xiao Junmo's sudden attack, Pei Tinglong was caught off guard, and quickly tilted his body and rolled off the horse.Before he got up from the ground, Xiao Junmo's saber light came again.Pei Tinglong put his hands on the ground and retreated desperately, feeling extremely thrilled and embarrassed at the moment.Fortunately, Xue An and others around him reacted in time, four or five swords were shot at the same time, and Xiao Junmo's sword was blocked from Pei Tinglong's chest.
Immediately afterwards, all the cavalry surrounded them.
But Xiao Junmo not only didn't panic in the siege, but as if he was in the land of no one, he flew up and down with a knife, and cut four or five people off the horse in an instant.
Seeing that Xiao Junmo disrupted the opponent's position with his own strength, Chu Lisang and the others were very excited, and immediately rushed forward.However, at this moment, dozens of crossbow arrows suddenly roared out from the mountains on both sides, and immediately shot down more than a dozen people, including the two wounded Dr. Tea.
In front of the mountain gate of Lingjiu Temple was an open land, without any shelter or obstacles, Chu Lisang and the others undoubtedly became live targets for crossbowmen.
"Back! Back to the temple!" Xiao Junmo yelled violently.
However, if they retreated, it would be tantamount to leaving Xiao Junmo alone on the battlefield.Chu Lisang and the others couldn't help being very anxious, and they were in a dilemma for a while.
The second wave of crossbow arrows struck again.
Everyone had to wave their knives to block.
Crossbow arrows have a shorter range than bows and arrows, but they have a faster firing rate and greater lethality, and people with slightly inferior martial arts cannot resist them at all.In an instant, with the blunt sound of crossbow arrows shooting into the flesh, a puff of blood mist exploded, and the members of the Sky Punishment Alliance fell to the ground one after another.
Xi Yan and Lao Gu's blood boiled immediately, and they rushed towards the woods on both sides with their subordinates.
At the same time, Chu Lisang, Xuan Guan, Jue Kong and others fought their way into the cavalry group.
Lao Gu's road was far away from the woods, so halfway through the charge, a dozen or so men were all shot down.Lao Gu was hit by several arrows, but he still staggered forward, roaring at the top of his lungs.When he finally rushed to the edge of the woods, he was still shot through the chest by a crossbow bolt at close range, and he fell on his back with his eyes wide open.
There were twenty or so people on Xiyan's journey, and they rushed straight to the forest to the west, and more than half of them fell down one after another in the middle.But in the end, Xi Yan managed to enter the woods with four or five brave men.Soon, the sound of crossbowmen in the woods became mute, replaced by the clang of swords and the screams of those crossbowmen.
After Chu Lisang entered the cavalry group, he tried his best to join Xiao Junmo.The two sometimes stand side by side, sometimes leaning back, attacking and defending, and cooperated tacitly, killing six or seven people in the blink of an eye.
The killing in front of the Lingjiu Temple was very dark, while Huan Dieyi, Luo Biao and others were tied up in the middle of the mountain and could not move.
They were each tied to the tree trunk, each of them was separated by a distance of ten feet, and there was no way to rescue each other.
"Marshal Huan, what should we do?" Luo Biao blushed with anxiety.
Huan Dieyi next to him pouted nonchalantly: "This is a good thing you and Xiao Junmo did, don't ask me."
Luo Biao sighed, but there was nothing he could do.
Huan Dieyi struggled a few times to loosen the rope, then slid down the tree trunk, then sat down on the ground with his head against the tree trunk, and simply closed his eyes.
Pei Sanou, who was standing on the edge of the cliff watching the battle, turned around and seeing her so carefree, couldn't help but walked over and said with a smile, "Hey, Huan Dieyi, your lover Xiao is about to die, and you're not in a hurry?"
Huan Dieyi rolled his eyes at him: "Go away, this brigade commander is in a hurry to none of your business!"
"Yo ho, it's quite arrogant!" Pei San smiled lewdly and approached her, "Huan Dieyi, why don't you just follow me, I'll go and plead with General You to let him let you go."
As soon as the words fell, a mouthful of saliva was spat on his face.
Pei San became furious and drew out his saber in a snap.
"Pei San!" Luo Biao snarled, "Are you crazy? Marshal Huan is the General's niece. If you dare to hurt her hair, be careful that the General will peel off your skin!"
Pei San thought about it, but finally he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he walked away cursing.
Huan Dieyi closed her eyes again.
Luo Biao sighed heavily: "Oh, you only see people's hearts in times of adversity! My brother is in trouble, but he can still ignore it and sleep. How ruthless this person must be. I am really convinced!"
"Luo Biao," Huan Dieyi said lazily, eyes still closed, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
"Old Master Confucius said it well, only women and villains are hard to raise!"
"I can't see that you, Luo Biao, can still remember Confucius' words."
"Just remember this sentence, and forget everything else."
"No wonder you can't marry a wife in your thirties. I only remember this sentence."
"Hey, Huan Dieyi, you can't be so unkind, can you?" Luo Biao was angry, "Even if we can't go down to save him, we can't be as peaceful as you..."
Suddenly, Luo Biao was stunned, dumbfounded.
Huan Dieyi let go of the rope silently, then tiptoed to behind him, and said in a low voice, "Keep cursing, don't stop."
"You...how did you untie it?" Luo Biao was surprised and delighted.
"I tell you to continue scolding!" Huan Dieyi emphasized, "Don't make them suspicious."
Luo Biao came to his senses and quickly said loudly: "Huan Dieyi, has your conscience been eaten by a dog? Who dares to marry you, a cruel, ruthless, selfish woman like you? Marrying you will ruin eight lifetimes." Blood mold! I think you will definitely not be able to marry in this life..."
"Does it have to be so ugly?" Huan Dieyi said coldly.
"How can swearing be nice?" Luo Biao said the words, only to realize that the rope on his body had been untied, and he quickly smiled, "Don't get me wrong, it's not because you scolded me for not being able to marry a wife that I retaliated. I really can't find a wife." What curse words..."
"Have you heard of 'The more you paint, the darker'?" Huan Dieyi gave him a hard look, and then went to save the others.
Luo Biao also quickly untied a few of his men, during which he caught a glimpse and found that Huan Dieyi's wrists were dripping with blood, and then turned to look at the tree she was tied to just now, and saw a sharp-edged stone on the ground , also covered with blood.
Luo Biao suddenly realized, and couldn't help slapping himself, calling himself a jerk repeatedly.
As soon as the two unleashed six or seven of their subordinates, Pei San and the others found out and rushed over immediately, and the two sides immediately started fighting...
The battle at the foot of the mountain was extremely tragic.
At the beginning, there were more than 20 people on Xiao Junmo's side and more than 30 people on Pei Tinglong's side. It could have been a tie, but the problem was that the crossbowmen in the woods to the east kept casting cold arrows.Although they also accidentally injured a few of their own people due to the chaotic battle situation, most of the crossbow arrows still effectively shot and killed the opponent.
After the two sides fought for half an hour, only him, Chu Lisang, Xuan Guan and two or three other subordinates were left on Xiao Junmo's side, while Jue Kong and his monks were completely wiped out.In addition, both Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang were slightly injured, while Xuan Guan was hit by two arrows, greatly weakening his fighting power.
On Pei Tinglong's side, there are still fifteen or sixteen people, and there are more than a dozen crossbowmen in the woods, it is obvious that they have won the battle.
Xiao Junmo kept trying to get close to Pei Tinglong, but was always blocked by Xue An and others, and Pei Tinglong also consciously stayed on the periphery.Seeing that the battle was coming to an end, the crossbowmen in the woods emerged one by one, forming skirmishers and approaching Xiao Junmo and the others.
Another round of crossbow arrows was fired, killing the last few members of the Heavenly Punishment Alliance, and two more went straight to Chu Lisang's back.She was fighting with three soldiers without realizing it.Xiao Junmo was entangled by Xue An and others, unable to get away, so he could only shout "Be careful, Sang'er", but the arrow arrived in an instant, and there was no way to dodge it.At a critical juncture, a figure next to him flew forward, and the two arrows pierced his chest.
Xuan Guan fell backward heavily, splashing the snow on the ground.
Fine flakes of snow flew in mid-air and landed on his face one after another.
Xuan Guan looked up at the gray sky and slowly closed his eyes.
"Mage! Mage!" Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang uttered heart-piercing shouts at the same time.
Their shouts soared into the sky, echoing among the towering peaks around them.
So far, apart from Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang, the rest on the battlefield are all enemies.The approaching crossbowmen threw away their crossbows one after another and pulled out their sabers—although the round of shooting just now had exhausted their last arrows, but now even if they fought hand to hand, Pei Tinglong's side could rely on their absolute superiority in strength to easily Kill Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang without hesitation.
The final moment has come.
Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang were back to back, their bodies and faces were covered with blood.
"Sang'er, where are we going to live in seclusion, have you figured it out yet?" Xiao Junmo asked.
Chu Lisang thought for a while: "How about going back to our Yi Que?"
"Well, it's a good idea. But I have to declare in advance that if I'm just an ordinary neighbor, I won't go."
Chu Lisang smiled: "Then what do you want to do?"
"Longmen wins in shape, Yique is romantic, if you don't become a couple of gods and immortals, how can you be worthy of that beautiful mountain and river?"
"Beautiful thinking!" Chu Lisang's face flushed a little, "Have you proposed to me yet?"
"As long as you agree, I'll beg now."
"You are so unreasonable. You haven't asked, how can I agree?"
Just as Xiao Junmo was about to say something, Pei Tinglong suddenly stepped forward and smiled grimly: "Xiao Junmo, our game is almost over, do you have anything else to say?"
"I just want to say that you are not worthy to be my opponent." Xiao Junmo said lightly.
Pei Tinglong chuckled: "Xiao Junmo, the biggest problem with you is that you are too conceited. You have always looked down on me, so you will be paralyzed and underestimate the enemy, and finally die at my hands! You say you die, you die, but you still want to make people look beautiful Miss Chu buried with you, what a waste of money!"
"Pei Tinglong, shut up your dog mouth!" Chu Lisang said angrily, "A person who hides behind his back in battle is also worthy of being a general of the imperial court? I don't think you are even worthy of being a man! How dare you have the face to speak nonsense here ,you disgust me!"
Pei Tinglong became furious and could only yell out through gritted teeth: "Kill them!"
Xue An and others immediately besieged them, and those crossbowmen had also arrived just now, and the power balance between the two sides became even more disparity.
This was the final battle of life and death, Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang both tried their best.A burst of knife light flashed, and clusters of blood spattered.In an instant, the red-eyed pair of deadly Shuangsha cut down another six or seven people.But at the same time, Xiao Junmo was stabbed again, and Chu Lisang was stabbed twice.As the blood gradually stained their armor and clothes, their physical strength gradually weakened, their footsteps began to falter, and their movements became more and more sluggish.
Seeing that the final victory was within easy reach, Pei Tinglong, who had been conserving his strength, finally joined the battle group.
At this moment, Xiao Junmo, who was at the end of his strength, was no longer his opponent.
As soon as Pei Tinglong came up, he spared no effort to attack, his sword skills were sharp, and his moves were deadly.Xiao Junmo couldn't resist, and retreated step by step, forced to distance himself from Chu Lisang.The two were immediately divided and surrounded, Pei Tinglong and others focused on Xiao Junmo, Xue An and others besieged Chu Lisang...
Snowflakes fell again at some point, and the leaden sky shrouded the valley like an impenetrable pot lid.At this moment, Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang, who were covered in bruises, were like two candles in the wind, trying their best to maintain the last light of their lives.
In the woods to the west, Xi Yan, who was wounded in many places, was fighting three soldiers alone.
Halfway up the mountain, Huan Dieyi and Luo Biao were still fighting with Pei San and the others.
They are all in a desperate situation, and they can only fight on their own until they die...
Just when Xiao Junmo and Chu Lisang were on the verge of despair, Pei Tinglong stopped suddenly, and at the same time ordered Xue An and others to stop, and then said arrogantly: "Xiao Junmo, for the sake of our colleagues, I will give you a Chance, as long as you kneel down and admit that you lost, I'll let Chu Lisang go, how about it?"
Before Xiao Junmo could react, Chu Lisang said sharply: "Jun Mo, don't listen to him, he just wants to humiliate you! We would rather die standing up than live on our knees!"
Of course Xiao Junmo knew that Pei Tinglong wanted to humiliate him, and he also knew that this guy would not be trustworthy, but even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance to save Chu Lisang, he would never give up.
So, Xiao Junmo bent his right leg and knelt down.
"Jun Mo, stand up! I don't want you to save me like this!" Chu Lisang shouted anxiously and angrily.
Xiao Junmo turned a deaf ear.
Pei Tinglong looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Xiao Junmo, what's the matter with kneeling on one leg? Can you be a little sincere? What I want are your two knees! Do you hear me? Two!"
Xiao Junmo trembled slightly, the veins on his forehead suddenly popped up, and the masseter muscle in his jaw twitched.
"Not only do you kneel down on two legs, but you also kowtow to me, say loudly that you have lost, and then beg me to let you go! Do you understand? Kneeling, kowtowing, admitting defeat, and begging for mercy are all necessary!"
"Pei Tinglong, do you count what you say?" Xiao Junmo seemed to be shaken.
"Of course it counts!" Pei Tinglong beamed with joy, "So many brothers are listening, how could I break my promise?"
"Let her go first, and I will do as you say." Xiao Junmo raised his head and looked at Pei Tinglong.
Pei Tinglong rolled his eyes and chuckled: "You are really suspicious. Forget it, I will help you!"
Chu Lisang has been wounded in many places and her body is bleeding profusely. Where else can she escape in this cold and barren mountain? !Thinking so, Pei Tinglong signaled Xue An and the others to get out of the way.
But Chu Lisang remained motionless.
"Sang'er, go!" Xiao Junmo shouted loudly, "There's no need for us both to die here!"
"I won't leave, I will die with you!" Chu Lisang said firmly.
"You are confused! Only by surviving can you avenge me, Cai Jiande, Meng Huairang, Xuan Guan, Lao Gu and all the dead brothers! Did you hear that?" Xiao Junmo shouted hoarsely with his blood red eyes open.
Chu Lisang was shocked, and two lines of tears welled up in his eyes.
After standing there blankly for a while, Chu Lisang took a deep look at Xiao Junmo, then turned around resolutely, and staggered towards the mountain path when he came, but turned his head every three steps and walked very slowly.
"What a pair of fateful mandarin ducks who will never give up, it's really tear-jerking!" Pei Tinglong sneered, gave Xue An a wink, implying that he should not let people run away, and then turned to Xiao Junmo, "I have fulfilled my promise, now it's time Are you?"
Xiao Junmo looked at Chu Lisang's receding back, and suddenly grabbed a handful of snow and threw it at Pei Tinglong's eyes.Unexpectedly, Pei Tinglong was on guard, turned sideways, and sneered loudly: "You don't keep your promise!"
"You don't have to tell beasts about your credit!" Xiao Junmo stood up, and the knife in his hand flashed a cold light, and it stabbed directly into Pei Tinglong's left chest.
In fact, the handful of snow just now was purely Xiao Junmo's trick.He intentionally let Pei Tinglong notice it, and made a dodging movement, and the direction of his blade was exactly where Pei Tinglong moved, so Pei Tinglong had no way to avoid it.
Pei Tinglong let out a scream.
However, at the same time as stabbing this knife, Xiao Junmo was ready to die with Pei Tinglong.Because there were still six or seven soldiers around at this time, Xiao Junmo insisted on taking Pei Tinglong straight, which was equivalent to exposing his sides and back to them.
Sure enough, the group of soldiers attacked almost at the same time, and six or seven gleaming dragon head knives slashed at Xiao Junmo one after another.
As long as these weapons fall, Xiao Junmo will definitely die!
At the very moment, more than a dozen sharp arrows pierced through the air without any warning, and instantly sank into the bodies of these six or seven soldiers.Xiao Junmo had no time to be amazed, and quickly drew his knife, spinning sharply on the spot, the blade drew an arc, and slit the throats of these soldiers one by one.Even if they are not killed by the arrow, this knife is enough to kill them instantly.
Pillars of blood gushed out from those gaping throats.
This sudden scene shocked Xue An and others.They had already chased after Chu Lisang, but seeing this change, they had no choice but to turn around and come back to rescue Pei Tinglong.
At this time, Xiao Junmo also saw clearly the group of rescuers who "fall from the sky".
From the direction of Yuzhu Peak, that is, in the woods to the northeast, a group of knights are galloping towards this side at the fastest speed. There are forty or fifty of them, half of them are holding bows and arrows, riding on horseback while running. Shooting, the leader turned out to be a heroic woman in military uniform.
After seeing her face clearly, Xiao Junmo could hardly believe his eyes.
This woman is actually Hua Ling'er!
The situation suddenly reversed, at this time Xue An and the dozen or so soldiers under him became living targets instead, four or five people were shot to the ground in the blink of an eye.Seeing that the general situation was over, Xue An had no choice but to ignore the seriously injured Pei Tinglong, turned around and ran towards the nearest woods to the east.However, after running about ten steps, a horizontal knife whizzed towards him, pierced his back impartially, and pierced out from his chest.
Xue An ran a few steps forward according to his inertia, before he fell heavily on the snow.
After Chu Lisang threw the knife far away, he finally collapsed due to exhaustion of physical strength...
Pei Tinglong crawled hard on the snow, with a long trail of blood trailing behind him.
There was a circle of people around him, of course they were all his enemies.
At this moment, all his subordinates have been wiped out, leaving no one left.
Xiao Junmo's knife was originally aimed at his heart, but due to lack of energy, he lost his normal aim, and the blade deviated half an inch from his heart, which only caused serious injuries to him, but was not fatal.Pei Tinglong climbed forward a few more feet, and was finally blocked by a human wall, so he had to raise his head, and saw Xiao Junmo standing in front of him with Chu Lisang supported, and Huan Dieyi, Luo Biao, and Xi Yan standing beside him covered in bloodstains, On the other side stood Hua Ling'er and his subordinates, including the Pang Bur whose arm he had cut off.
"You plan to crawl back to Chang'an just like this?" Xiao Junmo smiled softly.
Pei Tinglong smiled bitterly and vomited a mouthful of blood.
Hua Ling'er gave his subordinates a wink, and immediately two strong men came over, set up Pei Tinglong one on the left and one on the right, and made him kneel in front of everyone.
"Brother Xiao, let me go, I...I won't say anything." Pei Tinglong drooped his head and said weakly.
Xiao Junmo handed Chu Lisang to Huan Dieyi and Hua Linger, took a step forward, squatted down, and looked at him: "I'm curious about one thing, you did a good job in the military department, why did you go to Xuan Jiawei coming?"
"My eldest grandson told me that I can...make contributions here."
"But it turns out that Xuanjiawei is not suitable for you."
"Yes, Brother Xiao is right." Pei Tinglong raised his eyelids and smiled obsequiously, "So, you let me go, I will resign when I get back, and we will never mess with each other in the future."
Xiao Junmo looked at him and didn't speak.
"Brother Xiao, look, I have kneeled down to you now, and I have two knees." Pei Tinglong was terrified by his silence, "I can still kowtow to you, admit defeat, beg for mercy, you can ask me to do anything... "
"No need, I'm not you."
"Yes, yes, brother Xiao is a chivalrous gentleman, and there are many adults, so you don't need to be as knowledgeable as a villain like me."
"Of course I don't have the same knowledge as you." Xiao Junmo stood up and said coldly, "It's a pity that Cai Jiande, Meng Huairang, Xuan Guan, Lao Gu, all the righteous men of the Heavenly Punishment League who died in your hands are watching from the sky at this moment. You, I want you to give them justice."
Pei Tinglong looked up at Xiao Junmo, various expressions such as fear, hatred, anger, and unwillingness flashed alternately on his face, but in the end there was only a grim expression left: "Xiao Junmo, you can't kill me! I am the grand third-rank general and the nephew of the grandson Xianggong , if you kill me, how will you explain to the Holy Majesty and the court?!"
"I don't need to worry about it, I have my own way." Xiao Junmo said, motioning for the two strong men to let go, and then slowly drew out the knife.
"Pei Tinglong, if you have anything to say to your family, I will definitely bring it for you."
"Xiao Junmo! You can't kill me!" Pei Tinglong roared at the top of his voice, "The Holy Majesty can't spare you, and the grandson can't spare you either..."
"Is that all?" Xiao Junmo frowned, "Is there anything else?"
"Xiao Junmo, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go!"
Xiao Junmo sighed softly, and the dragon head knife drew an arc.
Pei Tinglong's head flew into the air, his open mouth seemed to be still screaming...
Lingjiu Temple stored a lot of herbs to stop bleeding and heal wounds. After dressing up, Chu Lisang, Huan Dieyi, Luo Biao, and Xi Yan fell asleep in their rooms.
Xiao Junmo didn't have time to rest, because Hua Ling'er had just applied the medicine for him, and someone came to report: Wang Hongyi woke up.
Wang Hongyi was detained alone in a firewood room.When Xiao Junmo walked in, he saw him half lying against the wall, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was still in a coma.
"I've been asleep for a long time, and you still don't want to wake up?" Xiao Junmo came over and kicked his feet.
Wang Hongyi opened his eyelids and smiled: "You saved me?"
"Because of you, more than 100 people died today." Xiao Junmo's expression darkened, "People like you are really a disaster in this world!"
Wang Hongyi laughed loudly: "If that's the case, why do you still save me? Wouldn't it be a one-shot for me?"
"You ask knowingly." Xiao Junmo knelt down and stared into his eyes.
"Oh? I don't quite understand what you mean."
"You know."
Wang Hongyi met Xiao Junmo's gaze, and suddenly acted suddenly: "By the way, I remembered. A few days ago, my subordinates met two lost women in Huaizhen Square. Out of good intentions, I took them in. Xiao Lang is saving me now because he wants to inquire about their whereabouts?"
"Since you and I know it well, there is no need to talk nonsense. Where are they?"
Wang Hongyi shook his head: "I can't tell you that."
"But you are in my hands now."
Wang Hongyi looked seriously at the rope tied to his body, and nodded: "That's true, but what can I do if I'm in your hands?"
"Notify your subordinates and replace them."
"Substitution?" Wang Hongyi chuckled, "What a pity!"
"What a pity?"
"Let me tell you the truth, before I went out this morning, I told the people under my command that if I make any mistakes, or if I don't return within twelve hours, those two women... will be killed! "
Xiao Junmo was startled suddenly: "You are lying!"
"Try it if you don't believe me." Wang Hongyi smiled triumphantly, "I am a person who often tells lies, but this time, I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me, lock me up for twelve hours, and you will see me again tomorrow." Until that Xu... no, by tomorrow, you will never see your mother again!"
Wang Hongyi emphasized the last two words.
Bang, Xiao Junmo punched him hard in the face.Wang Hongyi's eyes were full of gold stars, and he almost fainted, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.He spat out bloody saliva and said with a smile, "I can't kill me with this kind of beating. As I said just now, you'd better give me a knife, so we can both have a good time."
Xiao Junmo grabbed his collar suddenly, his eyes seemed to burst into flames.
Wang Hongyi was always smiling.
After a long time, Xiao Junmo pushed him hard and let go.The back of Wang Hongyi's head hit the wall, and he gasped again in pain.
"Xiao Junmo, I know you're very angry, but this won't solve any problems." Wang Hongyi looked at him, "You are a smart person, you should know why I kidnapped your mother."
Xiao Junmo stared at him without speaking.
"Xiao Lang, in fact, there is no need for you and me to be in the same situation." Wang Hongyi continued, "For so many years, I have been looking for Prince Yin's orphan, but I never thought that this orphan is you! You know, At that time, Prince Yin and I... No, your father and I were of the same mind and wanted to create a great cause together, but in the end everything was destroyed by the ambitious Li Shimin! He killed your father with cruel, ruthless and despicable methods. And your five brothers took away everything that belonged to your father! Don't you hate him? Don't you want to seek justice? As long as there is still a little man's blood, you should join hands with me , to avenge your father, and take everything back from Li Shimin's hands!"
Xiao Junmo stood up, turned around, and closed his eyes in pain.
He had to admit that Wang Hongyi's words hit his heart to some extent.
Li Shimin is indeed his father-killing enemy.If King Wei killed his adoptive father, and he wanted revenge on King Wei, why did Li Shimin kill his biological father, but he could remain indifferent, and even remained loyal to him? !
"Xiao Lang, think about it carefully. Is Li Shimin our common enemy?" Wang Hongyi said in a heart-to-heart tone, "Your father was my lord back then, and I can treat you as lord today. Let's join forces and kill him." Li Shimin, the only husband who killed his brother and forced his father to usurp the throne, then you can justifiably inherit the throne of the Tang Dynasty, and it was originally your father's..."
"Enough, stop talking." Xiao Junmo suppressed the pain and entanglement in his heart, and turned to look at him, "You keep saying that you want to join hands with me, but you kidnap my mother. Is this the way you treat your allies?"
"Xiao Lang, don't worry, Lingtang has never suffered any grievances from me, I just invited her over as a guest, and I will never treat her badly."
"You let my mother go, maybe I can consider working with you."
Wang Hongyi smiled lightly: "Xiao Lang, it's not that I can't trust you. The situation in Chang'an is so complicated now. If you say you want to cooperate with me now, what if you change your mind tomorrow? So, it's better for Lingtang to stay with me for the time being. Let's finish the big things together, I will not only return the Lingtang personally, but also send another person to you..."
Xiao Junmo heard what he meant, and smiled coldly: "Sang'er is by my side now, why do you need to send it?"
"Yes, yes, I know, I know that Sonny likes you, and you also have a deep affection for her, so you always talk about marriage, right? I am Sonny's biological father, and I said I will send you there It means that I entrust my daughter to you and hope that you will make her happy all her life, am I right?"
Xiao Jun was silent.
He knew that Wang Hongyi at this moment was sincere.
As Wang Hongyi said, the joy from the heart was on his face, and the light of longing flashed in his eyes: "If you become the emperor in the future, then Sang'er will be the queen, right? Isn't this the greatest gift you can give her?" So, whether it is for your father, your mother, yourself, or Sang Er, you should stand with me and deal with Li Shimin together, right?"
"The prerequisite for standing with you is that you must let my mother go."
"This..." Wang Hongyi smiled wryly, "Why did you come back again?"
"Unless you let her go, there's no way you and I can reach any consensus."
Wang Hongyi was silent, and his expression gradually turned cold: "I said, if I can't be seen within twelve hours, my subordinates will take action."
"You notify them immediately and cancel the operation."
"Impossible." Wang Hongyi's tone was firm.
Xiao Junmo wished he could rush up and punch him a few more times, but as he said, this wouldn't solve any problems.
Having dealt with Wang Hongyi for such a long time, Xiao Junmo knew very well that this guy's way of doing things has always been unpredictable, and it is difficult to speculate with common sense.What he said about the twelve o'clock is likely to be true, not to scare himself.
How to do?
This is almost a dead end.
Xiao Junmo found helplessly that just as he got out of the desperate situation where his life was hanging by a thread, he fell into an unbreakable deadlock again!
