The earthen jar filled with kerosene fell into the city lord's palace and immediately broke into pieces. The kerosene inside spilled all over the floor, and the torch that flew in immediately ignited the kerosene. For a moment, the city lord's palace was filled with flames and screams. As the sound spread, many Sichuan army guards who were on fire fell down from the courtyard wall one after another, and in the blink of an eye they were chopped into pieces by the people outside the courtyard wall.
Soon, even the gate of the City Lord's Mansion was on fire. The people rushed forward in a swarm, crushing each other and forcing the door open by relying solely on human power. Afterwards, the people outside swarmed in and rushed into the city lord's mansion like a tide.
At the same time, the people who were digging tunnels also pierced the tunnels one after another. Some people crawled out from the ground in the yard, while others made holes in the ground inside the house and got out one after another. It can be said that the fall of the City Lord's Mansion only happened in an instant.
The dozen or so Zhenren led by Ju Zhuo did not attack the City Lord's Mansion. Ju Zhuo was sure that if the people who stormed the City Lord's Mansion could not kill King Sichuan, King Sichuan would definitely escape from the tunnel. They only needed to set up an ambush at the entrance of the tunnel. Just wait for King Sichuan to come and throw yourself into a trap.
Ju Zhuo thought that his mastery of the secret passage of the City Lord's Mansion was a trump card, but Atong was not the only one who knew this secret.
When they hurried to the exit of the secret passage, more than a thousand people had gathered here, and they had set up an ambush before them.
Not only were a large number of animal traps buried inside and outside the secret passage, but countless large nets were hung over the entrance of the cave, just waiting for people to emerge from the secret passage!
Seeing this scene, Ju Zhuo, Atong and others grinned secretly, while Tang Yin and Asan also smiled bitterly. Who said Zhenren was stupid, but he was actually very smart.
Ju Zhuo really guessed it right. Someone in the city lord's palace did escape from the secret passage. It is not known whether it was Xiao Xiang or not.
While people were waiting anxiously outside the entrance of the secret passage, they suddenly heard the sound of springs snapping in the secret passage, and then, a scream came from inside.
Soon, there was a second, third scream from inside, and everyone who was guarding the entrance of the secret passage involuntarily stepped back, their eyes widened, staring intently at the dark hole.
After a while, a man stumbled out of the secret passage. This man was wearing Sichuan Army armor and had a beast trap hanging on one foot. As soon as he rushed out, his other foot was caught by the beast trap outside the entrance of the cave. Sichuan Bing screamed, unable to stand any longer, and fell to the ground. But the moment he fell to the ground, his head touched another animal trap. There was a click, and the animal trap retracted, and the sharp blade on it retracted. The saw teeth nearly snapped his neck.
This Sichuan soldier had just fallen to the ground. Following him, a large number of Sichuan soldiers ran out of the secret passage. Similarly, they also entered the trap that Zhenren had arranged in advance. The sound of the animal traps being bounced was endless. Sichuan soldiers also fell to the ground one after another.
Some Sichuan soldiers with deep spiritual and martial arts skills were not afraid of animal traps. They jumped through the traps and then rushed towards the surrounding people with swords in hand.
Zhenren was also well prepared. When he saw the spiritual cultivators from the Sichuan army coming out, he immediately cast out the large net he had prepared in advance. It was easy to avoid one net, but dozens or hundreds of big nets flew from all directions, and they couldn't escape even if they wanted to. The Sichuan Army spiritual cultivators were entangled in the big nets one after another, and they didn't even have the chance to use their spiritual soldiers to break the ropes of the nets. None of them, the people around them rushed forward one after another, slashing at the Sichuan soldiers with their swords, daggers, and axes.
Under Zhenren's continuous attack, the spiritual armor on the spiritual cultivator could not withstand it. First it cracked, and then it was completely shattered. Then, the people who were protected by the spiritual armor were torn into pieces by the crazy people around them. Broken pieces.
Now, the scene was more than bloody. The Zhenren people who had their faces splattered with blood did not look like humans, but more like bloodthirsty beasts.
As more and more Sichuan troops rushed out of the secret passage, the fighting outside became more and more intense. Similarly, the fierce fighting attracted more Zhenren people.
When a maid in a dress came running from the secret passage, the scene fell into an even crazier state. All the people in Zhenren had bloodshot eyes and emitted a strange red light. They knew that since there was a maid here, Sichuan King Xiao Xiang must also be there. this.
Many crazy chastity men broke through the guards' defense line and rushed to the maids, causing screams everywhere. Amidst the cries, the maids were thrown into the crowd of virgins one after another, and then a large number of virgins rushed directly into the secret passage.
It¡¯s just that they get in faster and get out faster. When it went in, it ran in intact, but when it came out, it was cut into pieces and ejected along with the blood mist.
Looking at the secret passage again, two spiritual cultivators slowly walked out wearing spiritual armor and holding spiritual swords. These two, one tall and one short, were both covered in pure white spiritual armor, exposed on theThe eyes outside shot out a cold light.
Seeing these two people, Ah San was shocked and whispered: "It's Elder Shenchi!"
Tang Yin had recognized it a long time ago, which was why he didn't immediately rescue him.
The elders of Shenchi are no ordinary spiritual cultivators. If you pick any one person at random, he will be a top-level spiritual cultivator who is hard to beat outside the Shenchi. What¡¯s more, there are still two Shenchi elders who protect Xiao Xiang.
Sure enough, with the appearance of the two Shenchi elders, the scene immediately changed. Although the Zhenren people were in large numbers, they were as fragile as grass in front of the two Shenchi elders. They just released their spiritual martial arts skills at will. Let hordes of virgins be killed and injured all over the ground.
"It's the elder of Shenchi! It's the elder of Shenchi who has come out. King Sichuan is in the secret passage. Everyone, please work harder!" Some people among the people shouted repeatedly. Zhenren also have their own way of dealing with spiritual cultivators. Not long after, a large number of people rushed towards Elder Shenchi regardless. Although a large number of people died tragically on the ground under Elder Shenchi's spiritual sword, there were still people who successfully rushed to Elder Shenchi. Before the two of them could continue to draw their swords, Zhenren swung their clenched fists forward. .
For a moment, clouds of white mist dispersed and flew towards the two elders.
The tall elder reacted very quickly and immediately realized that something was wrong. He raised his palms to cover his face, while the short elder failed to dodge and was hit by the white mist coming towards him. superior.
He screamed out in pain, and then he could no longer open his eyes. All the white ash emitted by the people of Zhenren flew into their eyes, and even the most spiritual cultivators couldn't bear it.
Seeing that the short elder had fallen into Zhenren's way, the tall elder exclaimed: "Elder Peng!" As he spoke, he rushed forward and pulled the short elder to the side.
It didn¡¯t matter that the two of them retreated, but they gave way to the tunnel entrance.
Seeing the opportunity, the people around him immediately rushed into the tunnel. They were fast, but the tall elder was even faster. He was holding his companion in one hand, and the spiritual swords in each hand were shining brightly, and the chaotic wind was released.
¡°Ah¡ª¡ª¡± There were screams from inside and outside the secret passage. Dozens of Zhenren people were affected by the spiritual chaos. Their bodies were chopped into pieces by spiritual blades, and their stumps and broken arms were scattered all over the ground.
"Your Highness, get out quickly and follow me to break out of the encirclement!"
The tall elder killed the chastity outside the secret passage, turned around and shouted loudly inside. As soon as he finished speaking, a large group of Sichuan troops ran out from the secret passage. And the woman in gorgeous clothes in the center of the crowd of Sichuan troops, was it Xiao Xiang or someone else?
Seeing that King Sichuan finally showed up, the eyes of all the people present were filled with greedy light. The way they looked at Xiao Xiang didn't seem like they were looking at a person, but more like they were looking at a golden mountain.
Xiao Xiang's appearance completely turned Zhenren's madness into a fever pitch. People were completely forgetful and rushed forward. Even Ju Zhuo, who was beside Tang Yin, couldn't stand it anymore. He took out the ax from his waist, raised it high and shouted. He shouted and rushed towards Xiao Xiang.
As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. Now is the best embodiment.
In order to take off Xiao Xiang¡¯s head and get the thousand taels of gold, Zhenren simply no longer saw the existence of the elder Shenchi in his eyes, and rushed forward like crazy, even though they were killed one after another as they rushed forward.
The tall elder had to take care of the short elder who had an injured eye, and at the same time he had to protect Xiao Xiang and resist the huge crowd of Zhenren people on the opposite side. It was understandable that the pressure was great, and what was even worse was that he was now unable to cover Xiao Xiang's escape quickly. , but there are more and more people around.
Feeling that if this delay continues, King Sichuan will definitely not be able to escape. The tall elder turned around and said urgently: "General Wu, you take His Highness away first. Elder Peng and I are here to rear His Majesty!"
The general surnamed Wu was Xiao Xiang¡¯s guard. After hearing what the tall elder said, his expression suddenly changed and he said anxiously: ¡°I can¡¯t leave these two elders here¡±
"Don't be wordy, hurry up and protect His Highness and break out. Hurry! If you wait any longer, no one of us will be able to leave!"
The guard surnamed Wu raised his eyes and looked behind him, right? The crowds of people who had gathered were so dense and dense that it was hard to distinguish them. If the delay continued and they were surrounded by crowds of people, it would indeed be difficult to distinguish them. Got away.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, pulled Xiao Xiang and said urgently: "Your Majesty, let's go first!" As he spoke, he pulled Xiao Xiang and ran towards the west gate of Pingcheng.
The guards protected Xiao Xiang and evacuated, which allowed Elder Shenchi to have no worries, the pressure was suddenly reduced, and he could concentrate on killing Zhenren who came up.
The elder whose eyes were injured just couldn't see, but the spirit weapon was still there, and the spirit weapon skills released just by feeling could do great damage to Zhenren.It's just that they are two people after all. No matter how powerful the spirit force is, they can't stop all the Zhenren. Seeing that they are blocking the way like door gods, and they can't rush through, the Zhenren disperse to the left and right, deliberately going around. Pass them and continue to chase Xiao Xiang.
¡° Let¡¯s talk about the guards protecting Xiao Xiang and running quickly towards the west gate.
But when they came to the west gate, the guards felt a little cold. It turned out that the west gate was full of people at some time. Looking around, they were all covered with black heads. There must be thousands of people at least.
The guards looked at each other, then took a deep breath and shouted in unison: "Kill¡ª¡ª" Everyone surrounded Xiao Xiang, and then rushed towards the dense crowd in front.
