Volume 1: Wind Rises in the Mountains and Lakes Chapter 175: Abandoned
Half an hour later, the Tianlong Sect's numerical disadvantage became apparent. At first, they could still take care of each other, but as people continued to fall, gradually, one person had to face two, three, three or four people, and finally one person was surrounded by four or five people.
If something like this happened in the past, Lin Yi would not stand idly by. But tonight, he just watched indifferently as each living person turned into a dead corpse and fell.
Occasionally, someone would rush towards him with a knife. With a flick of Lin's finger, the person would fall down. Jin Ke was surprised and happy. He stayed on the horse and did not dare to take a step away.
Another half hour passed, Hall Master Liu was already covered in blood, and his sword was broken. He held a steel knife he picked up from the ground, dodged the wind of the knife behind him, and chopped down the oncoming enemy with a wave of his hand.
Before he could even take a breath, a cold blade came to Hall Master Liu's face. He stepped back quickly and waved his knife to block it. "Hey——!" The steel knife in his hand was knocked away.
Hall Master Liu was shocked. He staggered, rolled back in an extremely embarrassed manner, picked up a long sword from the ground and stood up. He took a long breath, opened his eyes wide, and looked at his opponent with unabated murderous intent.
Liu Juhu from the platoon gang also had cold eyes and surrounded him again with four or five of his men.
The hand holding the sword trembled slightly, Hall Master Liu felt helpless. If he had fought alone, he would have killed the opponent long ago. But after repeated battles, no less than ten people had been killed, and they were already exhausted. Faced with a tight siege, he could only support himself.
Hall Master Liu glanced around, a deep sadness welling up in his heart. There are only forty or fifty disciples left, but the opponent still has nearly half of them. The order of the sect is difficult to violate. Before this trip, he had already predicted this outcome. It’s just that these subordinates of his died in mysterious circumstances!
Several more miserable screams were heard, followed by the sound, and the last few disciples also fell under the sword. The corners of Hall Master Liu's eyes twitched, and there was a sharp burning pain in his waist. He couldn't help but press the foot-long stab wound on his abdomen with his hand. The blood has soaked into the robe. If the knife edge penetrated half a finger deeper, I am afraid that he would be disemboweled.
In the flickering light of the torch, Hall Master Liu's face turned gray.
"You are not a traveling disciple of the Tianlong sect!"
Liu Juhu took a step forward, pointed his long knife at Hall Master Liu, and said, "Where are the other people sent by Tianlong? Tell me and I will spare your life!"
After fighting for an hour, these Jianghu people also understood that if the inner disciples of the Tianlong Sect were here, how could they be killed so easily? Perhaps, they would be the ones who escaped in the end. But if you know where the Tianlong Sect goes to sea and follow it, you might be able to find the fairy mountains overseas!
Hall Master Liu knew that he would not escape death tonight, and he looked solemn and solemn, and said with a sneer: "I guess not all of the people waiting for you are here, right? Liu will not tell you the real place to go to sea!"
"Hmph! You are just a dog abandoned by the sect. You will die as soon as you die. Unfortunately, you are still kept in the dark when your death is imminent. This move of the Tianlong Sect is just to let you and your men distract me and others. You When they left the capital, there were two big ships, one in the south and one in the north. Although we, the Jianghu comrades, did not know what was inside and what was true, we also knew that our troops were divided into two groups. Can you hide it from the sky?"
The one who spoke was Liu Juhu from the Pai Gang. He pointed his long knife at Hall Master Liu and continued: "You are also a man. I would like to advise you, why would you die for others in vain?"
Hall Master Liu shook his body and clenched the long sword in his hand. He understood that the other party's words were irritating, but he was also panicking in his heart. When I brought people here, I also wanted to board the ship, but I wanted to board the ship and go back, not to go to sea. The real intention of this trip is to attract the attention of the world and make the traveling disciples less burdened.
However, Hall Master Liu also knew in his heart that if he really attracted people from the Jianghu, he would suffer a narrow escape. As the leader of the hall, he has always been loyal to the Tianlong Sect. Even if he dies, his loyalty as a man is still intact. But what about the wife and children at home? What about the families of these dead disciples? Are you working hard for the Tianlong Sect for many years just to die today?
At this point, what can I do if I don't die? I hope the sect can be kind to my family! Looking at the disciples who fell on the ground, Hall Master Liu shook his head and sighed secretly. Suddenly, he thought of something again and looked back.
I saw two outer disciples driving the carriage safe and sound on the carriage behind them. One had a face full of panic, while the other had a calm expression.
Hall Master Liu frowned. He wondered why the two coachmen were still alive. It must be because no one cared about them. But after his death, these two people would not be able to survive. He straightened his body, and the thought of dying made his tone a bit desolate.
"I, Liu, died at the hands of all of you. It is my fate to be like this. No one else is to blame. I just hope that you will let those two coachmen go!"
Liu Juhu snorted, deeply puzzled by Hall Master Liu's stubbornness. With a wave of his hand, several people ran over and surrounded the carriage.
Seeing that the two coachmen were unable to escape, Liu Juhu raised the long knife in his hand and said conspiratorially: "Since Hall Master Liu is stubborn, we will not act like that woman and leave you to your own devices." Trouble. This time next year will be your memorial day!”
Hall Master Liu's expression darkened, his eyes widened, and he raised his sword resolutely. Just when he was about to fight with all his strength, he saw Liu Juhu's steps stagnant and he looked behind him in shock.
Still thinking that the other party was cheating, Hall Master Liu felt a chill in his heart and did not dare to look back. At this time, I heard a voice behind me say:
"That's enough! That's it."
Hall Master Liu heard the familiar voice in his ears and was surprised. He carefully took two steps back and then turned to look sideways. I saw several people surrounding the carriage falling to the ground, and Lin Yi walked over with his hands behind his back and a sarcastic smile. Jin Ke held a long sword in his hand and followed behind in a panic.
Lin Yi had endured it for a long time and felt uncomfortable being deceived. Since the Tianlong Sect is so self-righteous, they will reap the consequences, and there is no need for him to worry about it.
In just an hour, Hall Master Liu's men were all dead. The depression of the past few days has not disappeared, but Lin Yi felt a little guilty in his heart. These are just innocent people who suffered. What is abominable is that the commander of the Tianlong Sect treated himself and these dead disciples as abandoned sons.
Walking past Hall Master Liu, Lin Yi raised the corner of his mouth, nodded and said, "I didn't want to meddle in other people's business. I wanted to save your life today out of friendship with my fellow disciples. However, I don't like others to lie to me!"
Hall Master Liu looked stunned. When did this outer disciple speak so arrogantly? He was trapped in a tight siege and no one could get out alive. Why did you save me?
"Hmph! A coachman dares to utter arrogant words. Who do you think you are? Are you trying to talk fast before you die?"
"Pa—!" A loud slap shocked everyone.
Liu Juhu took a few steps back and almost fell down. He was covering his cheek, and blood was flowing from the gaps between his fingers!
"Who are you?
In the light of the torch, everyone didn't know what happened. Liu Juhu seemed to have been slapped because the slap was too loud.
I haven’t seen any young people taking action! Who hit him?
However, a thin man in the crowd looked at this familiar scene with a wry smile on his face.
Hall Master Liu was also stunned. He was the closest to Lin Yi and didn't see how he made the move.
"You dare to hit me in the face?"
Half of Liu Juhu's cheeks were swollen, and he vomited out several broken teeth with blood. His eyes burned with anger and he growled lowly.
"With so many people killed and injured, it's time to stop! If you keep nagging me, I'll kill you!"
Lin Yi had met Liu Juhu in Taiping Town a few years ago, and he didn't want to care too much about these Jianghu people.
"Haha! Kill with a knife, not with your mouth!"
Liu Juhu opened his big bloody mouth and slapped him haha. He lowered his body, and the long knife brought a sound of wind. Following the movement of the knife, his whole body turned into a shadow of the knife, and he rushed towards Lin Yi. The humiliation of the slap made him just want to kill the other person with a knife.
Lin Yi still had a faint smile, but a cold light flashed in his eyes, he stretched out his hand to make a sword, and moved forward a little -
A wisp of finger wind flew out, and the shadow of the sword that danced like silver light immediately dissipated.
Liu Juhu stepped back a few steps, his eyes widened, and he fell to the sky, followed by a string of blood drops. The bloody hole on his forehead appeared so suddenly and shockingly.
With a muffled "pop" sound, Liu Juhu turned into a dead corpse in an instant and fell heavily to the ground. The muffled sound of a corpse falling to the ground was like a blow to everyone's heart, shocking all the gangsters and taking a step back with shock on their faces.
Lin Yi had killed several people before, and no one noticed in the night. But now, in front of everyone, he pointed his finger in the air, which was shocking!
Seeing this, Hall Master Liu couldn't help but take a step back and looked at the dead Liu Juhu in disbelief. Is this sword energy?
In the Tianlong Sect for many years, I have never seen anyone use sword energy. Such skills cannot be accomplished without being an extremely skilled person!
But this is just a disciple who raises horses. Although he has a lot of strength, it is not easy to know how to use bow and arrow. How could he have such superb martial arts? Also, he just said he would save his life, but he had no hope of doing so. But now, I feel that what this person said is true.
Hall Master Liu was shocked and felt bitter in his heart. Why did the sect abandon such a master?
"If you still want to die, please come here. If you don't want to die, please leave!" In the light and darkness of the torch, blood was everywhere. Lin Yi put his hands behind his back and faced the murderous gangsters. His expression was calm, as if he was talking to himself.
Before Lin Yi finished speaking, several disciples from the Pai Gang wanted to step forward, but one of them shouted coldly: "Everyone, get back!"
Following the voice, a thin man emerged from the crowd. He stared at Lin Yi for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "Your Excellency is extremely skilled. I can't defeat you, so I'll leave now!"
Lin Yi looked at the man in front of him and folded his fists, but he smiled and said nothing.
There were no signs of fighting on the man's body. He had obviously been hiding behind him until he finally stood up. He nodded heavily at Lin Yi, waved his hand, and walked away with more than 20 people.
The Pai Gang is obviously the backbone of these people in the world, and they are now leaderless. What's more, so many people have been killed and injured, but nothing has been found. The young coachman is not easy to provoke, and the rest of the people dispersed after a brief hesitation.
On the water's edge in the distance, there are several large boats docked in Yingchuo.
