Chapter 66, County fight
Seeing the knife guard approaching, Lv Wei did not move for a moment.
However, at this moment, several dark shadows suddenly appeared on the walls of the west and north courtyards. Immediately after that, there was a few strong sound of bow strings. Before people could respond, the "swhis" feather arrow cut through the air and shot down all the guards on the terrace who were about to arrest Lv Wei.
The change suddenly broke out, and everyone was surprised.
In the hall, Liu Taishou's face turned pale, and other guests and subordinate officials all changed. Only the county lieutenant and the county lieutenant of Pinggang County hurried forward to protect Liu Taishou and other cadres. Everyone looked up and saw that more than a dozen people in black had climbed on the two courtyard walls not far away. Some people held bows and some people carried knives, jumping from the courtyard wall to the courtyard one after another. The man in black with the knife sewed and cut it. Several servants who didn't have time to dodge were killed, and they went straight to the hall.
Several people in black who are still left on the wall of the courtyard also shoot arrows into the courtyard from time to time, hardly distinguishing any targets, but anyone in sight has become a living target.
"Come on, come on, protect Lord Taishou." Sun Changshi shouted at the top of his voice.
"Your Excellency, go south, quickly." Zhou Zhi, the county lieutenant, could still keep calm, make an analysis from the chaotic scene, and quickly pulled Liu Taishou's arm and ran to the south porch.
The rest of the guests in the rear were all at a loss, couldn't think much, and blindly followed Zhou Zhi and others.
On the terrace, Lv Wei saw that Liu Taishou and others were about to escape, so he raised his sword in three steps and rushed up in two steps.
The county lieutenant of Pinggang County waved his knife to greet him. The cook was not Lv Wei's opponent at all. In only three or four rounds, he was scratched by Lv Wei's sword and his wrist. The blade fell off, and he could only escape to one side in confusion. Lv Wei didn't care about the others at all. His murderous eyes stared straight at the guests and Liu Taishou and others, and continued to chase them. A backward virtuous old man was caught up. He couldn't help stabbing the other party's back with a sword, penetrating his whole body like assassinating Han Xi.
The old man couldn't scream at all. He fell into a pool of blood and pulled out.
At the same time, at the guest table at the bottom of the hall, the people who participated in the county's inspection this year were also stunned earlier. They not only did not expect such a big accident to happen at the originally solemn dinner party, but also did not expect that Lv Wei, who usually attended to eat and drink together, turned into a murderer in a blink of an eye. However, as more and more people in black jumped into the hospital, waved knives and killed people, they had to immediately take counterattack measures.
Tian Kai first picked up the copper spoon that scooped up the wine and rushed to a single man in black. The two sides quickly fought.
Li Xin first raised the copper tripod, wine stove, utensils and other objects one by one and threw them fiercely at the people in black. Several people in black had just climbed over the wall and landed. They had time to dodge and were injured by heavy objects on the spot. After that, he directly picked up his table, as easily as carrying a wooden stick, and waved it up.
The rest of the people also came forward to fight, or retreated to pick up the weapons of the arrow guards, or came forward with their personal skills. They really can't throw utensils and other things at the assassins in black in the distance for the warriors.
At this time, Zu Zhao was not in a hurry to act. He tried his best to keep calm and looked around the situation around the scene. He noticed a strange phenomenon early in the morning, that is, although these people in black dress uniformly, no one is masked. That is to say, these assassins in black came very well, either outlaws or dead men with a dying heart. It is not difficult to imagine that this incident must have been premeditated, and it is even more terrible to install one person among the people who will be examined this year. The difficulty can be imagined that there is a powerful character behind all this.
Not only that, he also observed that these black assassins were quite good and extremely cruel, as if there was no specific purpose of assassination this time, and the only purpose was to slaughter the Taishou Mansion!
The action of the assassin in black was very meticulous. In addition to climbing over the two courtyard walls from the west and north, even the corridor from the west courtyard to the north courtyard quickly killed the third wave of assassins. And a porch and a side door in the north also ignited a fire in a blink of an eye. The fire was so fierce that it had blocked the way out.
From the start of the fire to now, in less than a moment, three batches of black assassins with a total of more than 20 people have been killed.
"The traitor, die!"
"Quickly, protect the lord, hurry up!"
"Ah, help... help me...ah!"
In the hall, there is still a bloody wind. Lu Wei chased Liu Taishou and others all the way and killed many guests.
When Zhou Zhi saw that Lv Wei was about to catch up, he handed Liu Gan, the governor, to Sun Changshi, and waved a knife to fight against Lv Wei.
It's just that Zhou Zhi is old and has just drunk a few more glasses of wine, and his pace is not stable at this time. Lu Wei was stimulated by the killing, and the intention to kill was strong for a while. The two met with swords, and Zhou Zhi suddenly showed an invincible momentum. He retreated step by step, and the knife in his hand became more and more difficult and unable to fight. Lv Wei took advantage of Zhou Zhi's return of the knife too late and stabbed him in the chest with a sword. Zhou Zhi shouted in pain and turned to the ground.
Lv Wei was about to continue to chase Liu Taishou and others, but Zhou Zhi, who fell to the ground, grabbed the pleats of each other's clothes tightly.
"Hmm, the one who blocks me will die!"
Lv Wei shouted angrily, waved his sword and cut off Zhou Zhi, but his arm was abrupt.
Blood rolled down with his broken arm, and Zhou Zhi shouted miserably and soon fainted.
Liu Taishou, who was still fleeing to the South Gate, heard Zhou Zhi screaming and couldn't help looking back. He happened to see the bloody scene. He was immediately scared that his legs and feet were weak and fell to the ground. Sun Changshi hurried back to help, but was hit by other fleeing guests and fell down.
Lv Wei came to Liu Taishou, and his mind had already let the killing rush past. He let out a heartbreaking sneer, pointed his sword at Liu Taishou, and roared hoarsely: "Dog officer, outside Zhumen, there are frozen bones, but inside the pink wall is singing and dancing. It is because of you and other dog officials that the people of the world will be trapped. In water and fire. I, Lu Wei, will kill your dog head for the world today!"
Liu Taishou panicked and climbed back repeatedly.
Lv Wei raised his long sword in his hand and cut it fiercely according to the door of Liu Taishou.
At this critical moment, something suddenly flew not far away, impartially, just hitting Lv Wei's blade.
The flying thing is a bronze cup. Lu Wei suddenly became angry: "Who is it!" While roaring, he turned to find the person who threw the glass. Suddenly, a fast figure rushed from the direction of the terrace, like lightning, lightning, extremely agilely shuttling through the chaotic crowd.
Lv Wei was not in a hurry to see who the figure was. Suddenly, he only felt the wind in front of him. The figure had been forced in front of him for a long time and flew up and kicked directly to his abdomen. He staggered back, but with the momentum of running, his retreat was obviously slow.
With a muffled sound, Lv Wei ate this foot abruptly. In addition, he had retreated before and was suddenly washed away three or five feet away and knocked down on a porch pillar.
Liu Taishou, who had lost half of his soul, stroked his undulating chest and opened his eyes to see clearly that the person who kicked Lv Wei was Zu Zhao. He quickly waved his hand and said, "Oh, ah, Zu... Zu Zhao, help... help..."
Zu Zhao glanced at Lv Wei. His foot just now was really light, and the other party hit the stone pillar again, and he must not be able to move for a while. Immediately, he came to Liu Taishou, pulled him up and said in a straight voice, "Your Excellency, don't panic, I will protect you to get out."
Seeing that Zu Zhao was really good, Liu Taishou couldn't help calming down and said repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
At this time, Sun Changshi also rushed over and hurriedly held Liu Taishou.
Zu Zhao turned around and looked at the rear. The assassin in black had killed the terrace and was rushing this way. Tian Kai, Li Xin and others were very injured. Several people were either shot by dark arrows or couldn't stand it because they had no weapons. He immediately said to Liu Taishou and others: "Go south quickly. I'll block them."
Sun Changshi said, "Zushi, be careful." He dragged Liu Taishou and continued to walk south.
Liu Taishou suddenly struggled to open Sun Changshi's hand and shouted at Zu Zhao, "Zu Yishi, be sure to save my son..." As he spoke, he pointed to the stone pavilion in the south.
Zu Zhao took a look at Shiting, which is still stable at present, and no assassins have killed him. However, because Shiting connects to the porch, it is often full of people coming and going, and he is not sure where the girl who played the piano just now is now. At present, he can't even take care of the North Courtyard. Naturally, he can't go to Shiting separately, but he still complains that Liu Taishou is insignificant.
Just as I was about to open my mouth and make a perfunctory sound, I suddenly heard a "swish" from behind my head.
Sun Changshi's eyes were sharp and shouted, "Be careful, there are arrows."
