Chapter 440 Chapter 6 Escape from Chang'an

"Clang"! Jing Zhongyue got out of the sheath and pointed at the dozen or so people headed by Rong Jiaojiao and Qiao Gongshan. The piercing saber aura pressed over like a wall. Caught off guard, everyone felt like they were in an ice cellar, and they dared not move. Although it is just a nodding and flicking movement, it will also attract Kou Zhong's kindly attack. Four big men appeared behind Kou Zhong, shouted at the same time, and attacked Kou Zhong's broad back with both swords and swords. Unexpectedly, the figure flashed, and what they saw was not Kou Zhong's back, but Xu Ziling who was free and easy.

Due to the mysterious timing of Xu Ziling's appearance, the two who attacked first had no chance to change their moves. Suddenly, they found that the strength of the weapon in their hands had completely disappeared, and it fell into Xu Ziling's crystal clear, flawless, slender and powerful hands. Xu Ziling smiled and said: "The adults are talking, but the children dare to come and harass and beg for beating!" Although the big man who attacked was an old Jianghu, he still didn't know that Xu Ziling had borrowed all the energy he had focused on the sword. He was horrified and tried to draw the sword back, but suddenly his chest was struck by lightning, he fell backwards, and fell hard on his back On the two partners, the four groaned in unison, rolled into a ball, and no one could get up again.

Xu Ziling tossed the snatched weapon casually, and the other two Rong Jiaojiao's subordinates who had just rushed up from the lower floor, who didn't even see the situation clearly, hit the Jianjing point with the hilt of the knife respectively, their internal force attacked their bodies, and they fell to the ground slumped. The threat from the rear was cleared away by Xu Ziling at once. Xu Ziling's jokes were what Kou Zhong and he loved to say when they were pickpockets in Yangzhou. Kou Zhong felt naughty when he heard it, and the old hooligan temperament was activated in his heart again, and he stepped up his saber energy. Chang smiled and said: "Miss, please forgive Kou Zhong for disobeying orders. Although you told my younger brother to hide, I, Kou Zhong, am not a generation who hides in Tibet. Even if I leave, I have to go in a fair manner."

Rong Jiaojiao was so angry that she almost vomited blood, and said angrily, "Don't spit blood on people." Not only was she totally defenseless, she didn't have any weapons with her, and Kou Zhong took the initiative, so even though she was furious, she still didn't dare to fight back to show her will. Kou Zhong laughed and said, "Miss, you don't need to say these things, as long as I silence all the people brought by Old Qiao, who will know our relationship?" He shouted again: "Qiao Gongshan, please don't act rashly by your subordinates in the room, otherwise you will be the first to suffer."

Qiao Gongshan's eyes were fierce, and he said sharply, "Go!" He said "up" in his mouth, but he retreated quickly. Kou Zhong's Jing Zhongyue, under the traction of the Qi machine, turned into a hob light and swept towards the enemy. Rong Jiaojiao scolded coquettishly, forced to break through the left wall, and escaped into the cabin. The two Changlin soldiers were the first to bear the brunt, barely raising their knives to fight. The others either rolled into the rooms on both sides, and retreated in a panic like Qiao Gongshan, hoping to retreat to the deck. At that time, it was up to them to decide whether to fight or flee.

The corridor was chaotic like the coming of the end, full of fear. The sword light is everywhere, people are turned on their backs, fortunately Kou Zhongfei is an indiscriminate killer, although he looks aggressive on the surface, he is very measured in his strikes, using only internal force to seal the victim's acupuncture points, it is more difficult than killing the enemy. There was a series of shattering sounds from the windows and doors, obviously someone broke the window and jumped out of the window to escape. All of a sudden, the enemy in the corridor either fell to the ground after being stabbed, or retreated to the cabins on both sides to seize the windows to escape, only Qiao Gongshan retreated to the open cabin door.

Kou Zhong let out a long laugh, Jing Zhongyue turned into "Zhi Qi", he walked away with the saber, and shot towards Qiaogong Mountain. Qiao Gongshan felt that Kou Zhong's saber energy was locking him away, although he was only two steps away from exiting the cabin, but these two steps were like a world away, difficult to cross, he had no choice but to pull out his saber, and tried his best to block it. Jin Huanzhen jumped up from the bed at this time, and was about to seek bad luck for Rong Jiaojiao, when Xu Ziling blocked the door and said, "If Big Sister Jin doesn't leave now, then there is no need to leave!"

Jin Huan really understood what he meant, this place is the land of the Great Tang Dynasty, once the Great Tang army is mobilized, the only way to survive at that time is to escape from the city, she will definitely not be able to rescue Zhou Laotan, whispered Said: "Be careful." Go through the window. "when"! Sparks and splashes. Qiao Gongshan threw the kite out of the door in response to the knife breaking the string, fell on his back on the deck, and turned seven or eight times in a row, until he hit the lower seat of the sail mast, he couldn't stop. The six or seven Changlin soldiers guarding the deck have not really figured out what happened in the cabin until now. Seeing Qiao Gongshan falling to the ground and rolling out like a gourd, they stood in front of Qiao Gongshan who had fallen to the ground in amazement, and opened their hands Escort formation.

Kou Zhonghao stepped out of the cabin door with a knife in his spare time, glanced around, the gongs and drums on both sides of the bank were beeping, horses galloped and people ran, the battle was imminent. Those who jumped off the channel to escape desperately swam to the shore, and Rong Yaonv appeared on the west bank. Of course, none of the sailors and boatmen on the boat stayed. Just look at the Changlin soldiers on both sides, bowing their bows and aiming at the big boat. Everyone knows that this is a dangerous place not to stay for a long time. "boom"! Xu Ziling bent his back and smashed through the cabin roof, came to the front of the wheelhouse on the second floor, looked towards the bow of the ship, there were still more than fifty feet to pass through the barrier at the mouth of the canal, but this was an impossible obstacle.

On both sides of the mouth of the canal, there are two stone fortresses built against the city walls. There are winches on them, and cables control the lifting and lowering of the iron gates that seal the canal. There are trebuchets on the stone castle, all of which are ready to go.Both sides are densely covered with archers, ready to fight. A group of people rushed along the canal from the east bank, the leaders were Li Yuanji, Da Dazhi and Mei Xun, only these three masters were enough for them to deal with. The unmanned ship rushed towards the pass with the wind and the water, with a heroic aura of failure or success.

With the sound of arrows, hundreds of powerful arrows were shot from both sides of the bank, attacking Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling on the upper deck. Kou Zhong surged his saber light, and knocked down the arrows with ease. With the cover of the cabin behind him, it was easy to only deal with the arrows from both sides. Xu Ziling lacked his favorable situation and became the target of public criticism. He immediately withdrew from the hole to avoid the arrows. Seven Changlin soldiers shouted at the same time, and attacked Kou Zhong, Qiao Gong struggled to get up with blood on his mouth. Kou Zhongjing drew out in the middle of the moon, bringing a circle of saber light, the enemy soldiers were fended off one after another, and they were routed. Then Kou Zhong stepped forward with arrows, Jing Zhongyue slashed left and right, two Changlin soldiers threw their sabers down, and he kicked another one down. Li Yuanji shouted angrily, "Leave the ship immediately." All the soldiers wished that Li Yuanji would have this most popular order, and immediately dispersed in a rush, and jumped out of the big ship desperately. Kou Zhong didn't pay any attention, he swung his long saber and slashed towards Qiao Gongshan who had just got up. Qiao Gongshan tried his best to raise the saber, and with a sound of "clang", the sword was cut off by Kou Zhong, and he sighed that he would die, but Kou Zhong's saber turned and touched his throat without a trace, as if he had planned to do so Do it. The wonderfulness of the sword technique is hard to believe. Qiao Gongshan showed the true colors of a tough guy, and said fiercely: "Kill! Isn't it soft?" Kou Zhong completely ignored the tense situation on both sides of the strait, and said with a smile: "I have no grudges with you in the past, and I have no grudges these days, why kill you!" With one kick flying out, Qiao Gongshan threw his foot sideways and fell into the ditch, feeling extremely useless. The three people who had been knocked down by him earlier crawled and rolled to the edge of the boat, and fell into the water to escape for their lives. Without any scruples, arrows from both sides of the strait flew over like locusts. Kou Zhong retreated straight to the entrance of the cabin, and while pushing the arrow, he laughed loudly and said, "King Qi is so kind, you don't need to send it away!" Li Yuanji and his group just arrived and galloped alongside the big ship that was only twenty feet away from the pass. Li Yuanji shouted sharply: "Well said! This king is indeed here to see you off, but he wants to send you to the underworld." Kou Zhong shouted, "Is it Western Paradise or Abi Hell under the 18th floor? Let's wait and see!" After that, retreat into the cabin. Xu Ziling just opened the acupoints for the Changlin soldiers who were knocked down by Kou Zhong, and forced them to jump out of the window to escape. At this time, he met Kou Zhong and said: "The waterway is blocked, and the only way is to leave from the top of the sluice. Even if we are not afraid of arrows, It is not easy to pass Li Yuanji, Da Dazhi, Mei Xun and many other masters." Kou Zhong whispered: "Although we can't order the sky to snow, we can set fire, right?" Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Good plan!" Li Yuanji and his horses flew into the air and landed on the pedestal of the stone castle on the east bank. Everyone drew their weapons and prepared to wait. The city guard guarding the north entrance of Yong'an Canal, and the Changlin army who came for reinforcements, all bent their bows and arrows, but they couldn't aim at the approaching brigantine. All trebuchets and crossbow arrows are all ready, just waiting for Li Yuanji's order. The sluice is slowly lowering into the water, and the winch makes an unpleasant grinding sound, which adds to the tense atmosphere of the already tense situation. Thirty feet, twenty-eight feet... Suddenly two of the cabins were filled with fire smoke, followed by two other rooms. Li Yuanji didn't expect them to do this, thick smoke spread in all directions, it is conceivable that the two of them must have ignited something inflammable such as pillows, blankets, otherwise the fireworks would not have risen so quickly and densely. Li Yuanji had no choice but to shout, "Attack!" The horn sounded. Boulders, crossbow bolts, and strong arrows rained down on the target. For a while, the mast broke and the ship was broken, sparks splashed, water sprayed up, debris flew randomly, and the entire canal mouth area was engulfed in thick smoke. "boom"! The sail hit the sluice heavily, the bow immediately shattered, and the two masts broke at the same time, and fell towards the place where Li Yuanji and others were standing, sending a cloud of smoke mixed with fire shavings. The people scattered and avoided in all directions, forming a mess. "boom"! The traction of the canal water and the broken mast caused the hull to spin, and the stern of the ship hit the sluice hard, and the people on the shore could also feel the violent impact. The solid hull finally cracked and rolled. The archers blindly fired arrows at the ship in the thick smoke, and no one knew what they were going to shoot. The fire grew stronger. At this moment, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling soared into the sky from the fireworks, and all four feet touched the top of the gate at the same time in an instant, then flew into the air and threw them into the ditch outside the gate, disappearing. No matter how many people, Li Yuanji and others are powerful and powerful, they can only watch the two of them escape and sigh helplessly. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling lay on their backs on the snowy slope, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, they couldn't help panting. Kou Zhong laughed hard, and said: "That kid Li Yuanji will definitely not be able to sleep tonight." Xu Ziling said with a smile: "It's not that he can't sleep, but he refuses to sleep. It will take at least two days for us to leave Guanzhong. How could he let us go willingly, so he had to sacrifice his sleep time." Kou Zhong said: "Do you think that our kung fu is indeed profound? In the past, we should have been exhausted by diving in the water for nearly half an hour, and then traveling fifty miles without a stretch, but now I There is still room to spare.” Xu Ziling nodded and said: "We should have taken advantage of the evil emperor's relic, and rushed down desperately, the effect will be seen immediately." Kou Zhong sat up and said, "We are not out of danger yet, what should we do next." Xu Ziling was still lying leisurely on the snowy slope, feeling the coldness of the snow, and said: "If we just want to escape, of course we have to go on the road immediately. But our current task is to lead the pursuers, so we should take this opportunity to adjust our breath and maintain our health." Recharge your batteries and see who will come to us first." Kou Zhong glanced around and saw that the entire vast and boundless Guanzhong Plain was covered with heavy snow, and it was a vast expanse of whiteness. The footprints they left on the snow seemed to extend from an infinite distance. It was shocking, and he couldn't help smiling wryly: "Isn't there a kind of light work in this world?" Treading the snow without a trace'? Although our lightness kung fu is not so great, it should not be far behind Yun Shuai, the world's number one light kung fu master, so why do we still have to step on the snow to leave a trace?" Xu Ziling sat up in shock, frowned and looked at the footprints that were faint but still visible, and sighed: "How is Yun Shuai's lightness skill compared to the birds in the sky? There are also claws left on the snow and mud, let alone human beings, alas! The second is that the sky does not make beauty, if there is no more snow, or a bit of strong wind, anyone can come to us." Kou Zhong scratched his head and said: "Although we want to lure the enemy, we are not in this way of seeking our own death. The only way in front of us seems to be to run away again." Xu Ziling shook his head and said, "It's not good for us to walk exhausted. This place is always the land of Li Yuanji, Pang Yu and others. They can change horses along the way, but we still run around on four legs." Pointing to the southeast, Kou Zhong said: "Over there is the Guangtong Canal that connects Chang'an and Dahe. There are two big cities Xinfeng and Weinan in between. The section from here to Weinan will be the most dangerous, because the enemy can Hurry ahead of us from the waterway, and then set up a net to wait for us to send up." Xu Ziling murmured: "Only when we reach the big river will we have a chance to escape. At that time, we can buy a boat and sail it eastward, and we can leave the customs in one day. It is not easy to intercept us on the big river. And we can abandon the boat and go ashore if necessary." , it is very convenient to fight or flee.” Kou Zhong said: "Then go straight up to the north. According to my estimate, we should reach Dahe tonight." Xu Ziling jumped up and said with a smile, "Look!" Flying obliquely, skimming up the top of the slope, the toes are everywhere, leaving only faint enough to be recognizable footprints. At this time, although the gentle wind blowing on the snow field is not strong, it is enough to eliminate the traces in a short time. Kou Zhong walked up to him according to the scriptures, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Master Ling is indeed wise. Although we can't leave no trace for thousands of miles, we can leave no trace for ten or five miles. A short-term hard work can be exchanged for the next one." Half a lifetime of scenery, what is cheaper than this." Xu Ziling said: "However, this is a bit of a risk, because it will deplete our true energy. If Ning Daoqi intercepts us during this time, my two brothers will have to eat and walk around." Kou Zhong took a breath and said, "Do you think this old boy will be so smart that he will wait for us on the south bank of the river drinking and watching the moon?" Xu Ziling said: "It's very difficult to say. We know nothing about him. Only God knows what methods he will use. There are no men without a reputation, let alone Lao Ning, who is known as the number one person in the Central Plains." Kou Zhong sighed: "I have an ominous premonition that no matter how we two escape experts try our best, we still can't escape his cactus in the end." Xu Ziling smiled and said, "You're not afraid, are you?" Kou Zhong's eyes brightened, a confident smile emerged from the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly, "It's not because of fear, but because of respect, but I'm proud to think that we were able to disturb this old man." He said again: "Do you think Fairy Master is willing to take action against you Ling Shao?" Xu Ziling showed a bitter expression, and said: "What we have done has made her completely disappointed in us. With her selfless disposition, she will never talk about friendship with us again, what do you think?" Kou Zhong gazed at the end of the snowfield, nodded and said: "She must be forced to take action, because no matter how powerful Ning Daoqi is, she still can't kill me Kou Zhong with the joint efforts of my two brothers, but I still don't understand why she would completely kill me. Disappointed? It is indeed our loss that the relic fell into the hands of Shi Zhixuan, but it has achieved the goal of splitting the evil sects, and there are merits and demerits." Xu Ziling sighed: "You seem to have forgotten that in her eyes I have become a person who does not keep my word. If you, Young Commander Kou, cannot get the treasure, I still won't persuade you to let go, and there is no Yi Nuo to part ways with you. What do you think will happen to her?" Look at me?" Kou Zhong sighed with him, put his hand on his shoulder, hugged him tightly comfortingly, and said with a wry smile: "This is the way people communicate with each other, because you can only understand the truth from your own standpoint and angle, even if a fairy It is still difficult to see the whole leopard, and misunderstandings will abound, and I am the one who harmed you." Xu Ziling smiled, and said, "What are you brothers doing with these words? Is the young commander interested in comparing foot strength to see who can reach Dahe first?" Kou Zhong let go of his hand, took a breath of true energy, swept down the hillside, and said with a smile: "The one who strikes first controls others, and the one who strikes late is controlled by others, this is the ultimate principle of military strategists." Xu Ziling let go of his arms, and ran after him. The two left faint marks on the snow, which were instantly covered by snowflakes when the breeze blew.
