Chapter 14 Suicide
The screams of the two little girls, Jiang Zhiwei and Qi Xia, were still echoing. A figure suddenly appeared from the stone wall above. He was dressed in black and had white hair disheveled. He looked like a ghost. His palms and feet were clasped in the cracks of the stone, as if The ape came to Qi Xia's head in two or three clicks and struck down in the air with the posture of "goshawk fighting rabbit".
The direction in which this person came in was exactly opposite to the direction in which the head flew in!
Qi Xia had received many "practical trainings" in sneak attacks and assassinations in the Dajiang Gang, and was basically vigilant against similar situations. He understood that if unknown objects were thrown in, he should first hold his breath to prevent poisons, and secondly, keep an eye out. Six roads, listen to all directions, and prevent the east from attacking the west.
Therefore, even if she was momentarily shocked by the clear scene of the deceased and screamed, losing the best opportunity to defend herself, she still quickly came to her senses, exerted force on her feet, swayed her body, and avoided the vital point above her head.
Then, a hand wearing an iron glove dug deeply into her left shoulder, and then, the "white-haired ghost" jumped in front of the water-splitting thorns flowing with green light, turned over with a kite, and brought a huge rain of blood, fell to the other side.
When Qi Xia fought with this "white-haired ghost", Jiang Zhiwei also reacted and shouted in a low voice: "Second from the left."
Meng Qi immediately took two steps to the left, and then saw the sword light shining like water towards the "white-haired ghost".
Soon enough, a gray shadow rushed in from the direction where the head flew in. The long knife in his hand reflected the torch on the wall, casting a dim light, aiming directly at Jiang Zhiwei, who was unable to move.
It turned out to be two attempts to make false claims in the east and attack in the west!
The long knife fell and struck Jiang Zhiwei's left shoulder and Meng Qi's head.
The sword light "throwing" at the "white-haired ghost" suddenly disappeared. Jiang Zhiwei's long sword had been reversed at some point. Without even looking back, it stabbed diagonally upward behind him. The gray shadow seemed to be actively using his body. Jump towards the tip of the sword.
She was actually luring the enemy!
Gray Shadow turned around forcefully, stretched out his left palm, and pressed against the tip of the sword.
With a pop, the sword pierced his palm, but he took advantage of the situation and threw himself to the left, avoiding the sword.
"Two jumps back." Jiang Zhiwei said in Meng Qi's ear. Although the words were fast, they were as clear as big beads falling on a jade plate.
Facing a battle of this level, Meng Qi's pitiful combat experience was of no use at all. He could only keep telling himself that he must trust the "experts" and Jiang Zhiwei.
After jumping two steps back, Meng Qi finally managed not to lose his balance because of his practice of Arhat Fist. After the man in gray landed, the sword he slashed horizontally was blocked by Jiang Zhiwei who had distanced himself. The swords struck each other, making a clanging sound. Crisp sound.
At this time, Ge Chongshan and others who were exploring the road outside and searching nearby had heard the movement here and rushed back.
Seeing this, the "white-haired ghost" and the "grey-clothed man" suddenly became fierce in their offensive. Although Jiang Zhiwei had Meng Qi take his place, Meng Qi's own strength was just that he had just completed the "hundred days of foundation building" and had never learned how to lift. Technique, the pace is relatively slow, and the dictation is limited, making it impossible to complete tedious cooperation, so Jiang Zhiwei can only focus on defense, except for the necessary steps, greatly reducing movement. For a while, she and Qi Xia, who suffered heavy injuries to their left shoulders, both They were forced to keep their doors shut.
Meng Qi moved according to Jiang Zhiwei's instructions while feeling the sharp force of the sword. His heart felt cold and slightly frightened. He subconsciously thought that compared with the sword skills of the man in gray, the fight he had just fought with Cheng Yong was like a child's fight. !
After a fierce attack, the "white-haired ghost" and the "grey-clothed man" jumped back and got out of the fighting range. While Ge Chongshan and others were still some distance away, they rushed towards a temporarily deserted corridor.
They are trading an attack for a chance to escape!
Qi Xia and Jiang Zhiwei were suppressed and were defending with all their strength. They were unable to pursue them for a short time and could only watch as the two figures rushed to the door.
Suddenly, a long sword stabbed out from outside the corridor, as agile as a snake, forcing the "white-haired ghost" and the "grey-clothed man" to step back to avoid the sharp edge.
"Senior Brother Zhang!" Qi Xia saw that the man who drew the sword was Zhang Yuanshan with a sad face.
Jiang Zhiwei said without thinking: "Forward five."
Meng Qi strode forward and blocked the retreat of the "white-haired ghost" and the "man in gray". Jiang Zhiwei stretched out her long sword and trapped the "man in gray" within the light of his sword.
Zhang Yuanshan did not lose his mind because of his grief and anger. The long sword drew circles one after another, tightly entangling the "white-haired ghost". Sometimes the sword acted like a snake, forcing the "white-haired ghost" to scramble and find it difficult to escape.
The water-splitting thorn appeared with green light flowing, and Qi Xia also rushed over to help Jiang Zhiwei, so that the "man in gray" could not find a chance to escape.
"Brother Ma! Brother Tan!" Ge Chongshan entered the stone house and recognized the "white-haired ghost" and the "man in gray" at a glance. They were actually the two heroes Ma Lianghan and Tan Wenbo who were trapped before.
The two of them had green faces and green eyes. They didn't speak. They tried hard to find flaws in Jiang Zhiwei, Zhang Yuanshan and others, and tried to escape.
"Hey." Ge Chongshan sighed and led other masters to join the battle group.
As a result, the battle gradually became one-sided. Within ten breaths, Tan Wenbo, who looked like a "white-haired ghost", was pierced by several long swords and died on the spot. After Ma Lianghan was injured by the sword, he was hit by Ge Chongshan's iron fan. He was attacked and temporarily lost his combat effectiveness. Ge Chongshan hit several large acupoints and subdued him.
"Who are these two?" Ge Chongshan asked as he looked at Zhang Yuanshan and Qi Zhengyan who joined the battle behind.
Jiang Zhiwei sighed: "Both of them are juniors from the same sect, and so is this one on the ground."
Since she has already told Su Wuming, there is no need to involve other people's masters, so as not to make Ge Chongshan suspicious. It is normal for a reclusive master that others have never heard of. There are always accidents, but several people have never heard of him. Then It's a little weird.
"Senior Brother Zhang, you guys?" Qi Xia's previous and current titles dispelled Ge Chongshan's suspicion about the difference in swordsmanship. Perhaps the "senior" Su Wuming was a peerless swordsman who had mastered many swordsmanships and martial arts, and was very useful to his disciples. We teach students in accordance with their aptitude.
Zhang Yuanshan said with sadness on his face: "Junior Brother Qingjing, Junior Brother Zhengyan and I rescued Hero Tan Wenbo first, everything was as usual, and then immediately rushed to rescue Hero Ma Lianghan from trouble, but just when we opened the last stone door, The hero Tan Wenbo from behind made a sudden attack and assassinated Junior Brother Qingjing, but I was held back by the hero Ma Lianghan who jumped out from the front and could not turn around to help."
"Junior Brother Qingjing fought back before his death, and also injured Hero Tan Wenbo. With the desperate efforts of Junior Brother Zhengyan, we were able to repel them and pursue them. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, they actually took us in a circle and even circled back. In the original stone chamber, Junior Brother Qingjing’s head was cut off!”
Although he still called him a hero, his tone was extremely sad and angry.
Meng Qi did not gloat because Qingjing had tripped him up to test Jiang Zhiwei's sword skills and repeatedly targeted him. Instead, he felt a sense of sadness. If Qingjing died, who would be next? alone?
This feeling reached its extreme after seeing Zhang Yuanshan, who had always been calm and calm, rarely show uneasiness, irritability and sadness. Before seeing the Lord of Yinhuang Castle, two companions had already died. How tragic would it be during war?
After Ge Chongshan and others listened quietly to Zhang Yuanshan's story, they also thought of their friends who had died in the hands of Ding Changsheng, and they all had the same look of grief on their faces.
"Little friend Zhang, don't be too sad. Little friend Qingjing died for the righteous path of martial arts. We will remember it, and there will be retribution in the bright world! I also ask a few friends to calm down and rush to the central hall with me. Meet the commander and others," Ge Chongshan said with a somewhat sympathetic tone.
"Well, without further ado, seniors, let's set off now." Zhang Yuanshan calmed down his grief and became calm and determined again, as if he had matured a lot in a short period of time.
Ge Chongshan nodded: "Okay, Brother Zhang, Brother Zhao, please stay here and watch over Brother Ma until we return after finding the antidote."
You can't take Ma Lianghan with you at this time. If someone unlocks his acupuncture points, he will have a powerful enemy.
"Brother Ge, that big devil is plotting evil in the central hall. We can also come in handy. We must not be careless now!" the master surnamed Zhao said eagerly.
Ge Chongshan sighed: "I know, I know, more effort means more hope of success, but we can't just leave Brother Ma here, right? Maybe there will be a man in black to save him."
After Ma Lianghan was injured, the greenness on his face faded a lot. At this time, the power of the medicine seemed to be relieved a little, and he shouted in pain: "Chongshan, kill me! Kill me!"
Ge Chongshan only controlled his internal energy by tapping acupuncture points, but did not make him unable to move or speak.
"He seems to be even more out of control than Hero Cheng Yong..." Jiang Zhiwei lay on Meng Qi's back and whispered to him.
"Perhaps the longer it goes on, the harder it will be to compete with the power of the medicine." Meng Qi guessed.
Ge Chongshan's right hand holding the iron fan trembled slightly: "How could this happen! How could this happen!"
If killed during a fight, he would only feel guilty and would not struggle. But after he had restrained himself, he still had to personally kill his best friend. That would definitely be torture to the soul.
Ma Lianghan took a breath and said with all his strength: "I, I can't make it! After eating that damn thing, I, I am worse off than dead! Chongshan, kill me! This is to save me!"
Suddenly, he seemed to have accumulated a little strength, jumped up suddenly, and hit the sword of a nearby master with his throat.
The master was caught off guard, thinking he was being attacked by surprise, so he extended his sword without retracting it and pierced Ma Lianghan's throat.
Ma Lianghan slowly fell down, with a smile on his face.
"Brother Ma!" Ge Chongshan shouted in shock and grief.
At this time, Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei saw the fire shadows on the opposite stone wall move like ghosts, forming three rows of words.
"Jiang Zhiwei, Zhang Yuanshan, Qi Xia, Qi Zhengyan, and Zhending rescued Tan Wenbo from the sea of suffering controlled by the Heart-Robbing Pill. They completed one of the side tasks and were each rewarded with ten good deeds."
"Jiang Zhiwei, Zhang Yuanshan, Qi Xia, Qi Zhengyan, and Zhending rescued Ma Lianghan from the sea of suffering controlled by the Heart-Robbing Pill. They completed one of the side tasks and were each rewarded with ten good deeds."
"All side tasks completed."
Meng Qi and the others were silent, and their mood did not improve at all. Even Ma Lianghan blamed himself and the others.
