In the city, the sound of gongs and the sound of the arresters guiding the people home, fires lit up in several places, swords clashed in several places, and some people confronted members of the Huaxia Army on the street.
On a busy street, seven Lvlin people who were performing arts took out knives and guns, trying to incite the people to rebel together. Soldiers of the Huaxia Army blocked them from front and back. Some of these green forest people spit fire, some repeatedly flipped, threatening the soldiers. When one of them took out a dangerous throwing knife and threw it, the Huaxia Army soldiers raised their shields and swarmed them, and then threw out fishing nets with barbs to tie them one by one. overturned.
During this process, the nearby Zhuji storytellers came out loudly to appease the people, and vividly introduced the martial arts used by several people, which are not popular in the rivers and lakes. The Huaxia Army used the small-scale battle formations written by the iron-armed Zhou Dong... After a few people were knocked down one by one and tied up with chains, the crowd on the roadside applauded excitedly, and then continued to go home under guidance.
Several warehouses and yamen in the city were either attacked, or the murderer with the intention of making trouble was caught in the middle.
Small chaos that could not be controlled for a while naturally also appeared. Fortunately, the green forest knights also wanted to win the hearts and minds of the people. The situation of hacking and slashing on the street with a big knife never happened - if it did, they would also be nearby snipers and musketeers. The first target to kill. The people at this time were unusually simple. If there were bad guys who made trouble, were beaten and killed on the spot, and the blood was on the floor, it was a very legitimate thing. Witnesses would be able to have a lot of after-dinner talk in the future, which would easily be admired by the audience.
Ning Ji ran wildly in the city.
He ran two more blocks and was stopped.
"Hey, hey hey two two two... that..."
At the intersection of the street, a soldier of the Huaxia Army waved his hand and ran down the ramp on the side. He obviously recognized him, but he couldn't call him by name. Ning Ji looked at the man, stopped when he got close, and widened his eyes. Surprised, I found the organization.
"Hey, hey, babe... crow mouth... Lao Yao! You're not dead yet—"
At this time, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army were all acting in groups, and there were obviously a few people behind the soldiers. Hearing Ning Ji's words, the other party's shoulders slumped a little. This man's name is Yao Shubin. He was an elite soldier who was incorporated into Zheng Qiming's squad in the Southwest War. After the battle at Wangyuanqiao, Ning Ji was dragged behind by his father and brother by despicable means, and he was separated from these comrades.
On the battlefield is a life-threatening friendship, especially Ningji, who is ruthless and skilled in black martial arts. He has never been a drag-and-drop bottle, and Yao Shubin will not treat him as a child. At this moment, he came over and said, "Um, second young master, how are you..." He looked back at his companions behind him, obviously conscious of the need to keep Ning Ji's true identity secret.
"Dragon!" Ning Ji nodded to himself, "Long Aotian, my name is Long Aotian now... just call me Brother Tian."
"Ah..." Yao Shubin was stunned for a while, and then several companions had come to the vicinity, and then introduced: "This is... my brother, Long... Aotian. Just call Xiaolong."
"Hey, that's a good name..."
"Brother Long's name has gained a lot of air..."
Several soldiers were taken aback by the imposing manner of the name, Ning Ji also smiled and greeted everyone: "Hello everyone, my own people, all my own people..." He took out a sign from his arms as he spoke. Everyone saw that he was just a young man, and thought he was a relative of Yao Shubin's younger generation, and then they were startled: "Wow! Special warfare!"
"Like Lao Yao, I was with Brother Zheng Qi during the war."
"Family-educated and highly skilled in martial arts, you may not be able to beat him. Moreover, he is mainly in charge of the military doctor, and he is very good at treating injuries and diseases."
Yao Shubin explained Ning Ji properly, and everyone understood at this time. During the Southwest War, there was a shortage of manpower. Although the teenagers tried their best not to go to the battlefield, it was not impossible. This little brother Long with a scary name is obviously from some martial arts family, and he knows medical skills and is quite eloquent. It will also be squeezed dry. This young man is so powerful that it is evident that he has lived up to his good name.
Everyone was in awe for a while and shouted loudly. Later, Ning Ji followed Yao Shubin to the sloping land on the side. The terrain here is relatively high, and there is a tower built in the temple next to it, which looks like it has been requisitioned. When he saw the posture here, he knew that the preparation was quite appropriate this time, and he couldn't help asking: "Hey, Lao Yao, when did you come to Chengdu? How long have you been preparing?"
"I arrived at Thirteen. These preparations were not made by us. We are responsible for arresting people. As for preparations, Chengdu has not been peaceful recently. They started taking precautions more than a month ago. You don't know... By the way. What are you doing these days... Forget it, if I can't tell you, I won't ask."
"I didn't do anything. After the Wangyuan Bridge was over, my brother caught me and stayed in Shiling. Later, I was not allowed to go to the front line again, and then I was sent to the rear. My mother and I... go. I visited some dead ghosts' family members, like monkeys, monkeys' wives, sons... Then I was here in Chengdu, and now I am a doctor in the first martial arts tournament... I live in a yard in the south, you can remember the address Come on, it's on the second word of Pingrong Road..."
When Yao Shubin asked this, Ning Ji rambled about his recent whereabouts, Yao Shubin also nodded: "Oh, monkeys and the others... Back then..."
Ning Ji waved his hand to interrupt his memory: "Don't talk about this, how did you arrange it, who to fight? Who to deal with? Take me one..."
"How do you bring this? You know the order, we are the only team here, how can we lead people randomly... Hey, I was about to tell you, it's not like you don't know how tense the situation is tonight, you are running around in the city , and also use light power, fly over the eaves and walk the walls, did you know that there are snipers above, who are already staring at you, if I hadn't glanced at you, you are running around the city now, wouldn't a group of people follow you behind you."
"No wonder I feel nervous..." Ning Ji glanced at the tower on the side, then spread his hands innocently: "How do I know the situation is tense, and no one said hello to me beforehand, I want to come and help..."
Yao Shubin frowned: "...you don't know?"
"I can't say I don't know. There is a lot of buzz in the city. I also think that something will happen sooner or later. There must be preparations above... But I've been busy recently, so I didn't specifically ask."
"That's no wonder, it's your brother who is in charge of liaising with all parties. You joined in when you asked if you didn't..."
"Ah?" Ning Ji opened his mouth wide, "What am I... I want to quarrel with him in the future, where is my brother now?"
"He was in charge of liaison with all parties before. When we entered the city, he led the team. Now in this situation... it is estimated that he will be in the middle, and I will..."
"I'm going to find him now... I'll go to the Maha Pond, and I'll find someone..."
Yao Shubin dragged him: "Second Young Master, you can't run around now, there are dozens of snipers in the city, if any of them don't recognize you, you still run around..."
"What's your reason, many people are going home, why can't I go."
"Anyway, you can't leave. The city is so chaotic. I can't take the responsibility when you leave."
"Where is the chaos in this city, where is the chaos, let me go!" Ning Ji jumped up on the ground, stomped his feet, and then looked at Yao Shubin: "It's okay if you don't let me go, then you bring me one, there are bad guys here. , I'll help fight."
Yao Shubin thought for a while: "... this matter is not impossible... I have to follow up and ask for instructions... "
"It's all my own, don't fool me, my father told me that if you can't do what you want, you should ask for more instructions..."
"That's the first time I've asked-"
"Bamboo gangster, you're raising the bar with me, right! I understand, you just don't want me to go, and you don't want me to have fun... In this way, we will duel."
"I'm not afraid of one-on-one, but not today."
"Why?"
"To save your energy, it's tonight. The order above is that you are not allowed to fight against anyone. If you encounter a gangster, you will directly fire the gun. I also want to fight, but there is an order..."
"You... I..." Ning Ji pointed at him, stunned and angry, and after a while, he said: "Forget it, there is nothing to talk about, I have to go to Mahachi to ask for a task, so many people are here. On the way, don't fool me, I'll tell you, I'll be yours if I die... Now you either agree or let me go."
"Why are you being a rogue? You..."
Ning Ji raised his head, stared at him and stretched out his fingers, Yao Shubin tilted his head and frowned and put his hands on his hips, the leaves of the tree blown by the night wind fell in the air, and the two faced each other for a while in the open space in front of the temple.
Finally, Yao Shubin chose to back down: "Okay, when I'm unlucky, we'll be together tonight, then we'll agree, you'll take the task, and act together anyway, you're not allowed to run around. A gentleman said a word."
"Hurry up and whip!"
The two fists touched in the air, and then they laughed.
"You said that I shouldn't meet you today, you know what you're risking."
"Hey, Lao Yao, I don't really like doing things with you. When I meet a gangster, I use a musket? Is this what people do? Who are we afraid of in a duel?"
"The above said to save energy. Look at so many bad people in this city. They have to come out one by one. Tonight, if there is a one-on-one confrontation, only a few of you will be added to our side? It's impossible."
"That's right, it will come out in waves, right?" Ning Ji's eyes lit up, looking left and right.
"Well, that's the plan. The first is to deal with their most thorny and famous ones. There are already people there to say hello. After this group of people is finished, it is inevitable that there will be people who want to find out, or feel that It's getting late at night, and the Huaxia Army will take it lightly... Anyway, it's possible all night... We can't do anything about it, the above said, this is someone outside who wants to greet us, get to know us, then make this greeting well , whatever means they have, let us swallow them all, and there will be fewer people who want to say hello next time, and people all over the world will know us..."
Yao Shubin babbled, and Ning Ji nodded: "Is there any Wang Xiangfo, Xu Yuanzong, Chen Wei, etc. who made the first thorn?"
"Yes, they have arranged for them. The one named Chen Wei doesn't seem to be found anywhere. I have to beware of him tonight. Xu Yuanzong said that it was distributed to Wang Dai. On Wang Xiangfo's side, Niu Chengshu and Liu Muxia went..."
"Oh, then I saw Wang Xiangfo... Weak chicken... Niu Chengshu, Liu Muxia and the others surrounded him, hitting one out of five, kicking on the ground. It was too much..."
"Well, it's a bit too much for you to say that. The five of them swarmed up, who can't stand it..."
The two of them sighed and shook their heads in unison, and then Ning Ji cheered up: "Forget it, it's alright, there will be bad guys next, just wait for them..." He walked to the front, and began to greet a group of people, almost: "Brothers Good, good uncle, good uncle, let's do things together today, my name is Long Aotian, just call me Xiaolong..."
Yao Shubin also reluctantly started to introduce.
Ning Ji's excitement lasted for a long time...
****************
The Milky Way flowed across the sky, with fireworks with roaring arrows streaking across the night like a meteor. The beacon smoke rose several times in the city, and there were also tragic killings.
"I fought for the people of the Wu Dynasty—"
"Many people will starve to death this winter—"
"You Huaxia Army just take care of yourself!"
"The crime of killing a king is unforgivable—"
"As long as there is no Ning Yi, my Han family will be able to negotiate peacefully, and the great rivers and mountains will not be fragmented, and the recovery of the Central Plains is just around the corner—"
"You and other heroes, why do you have to follow that rebellious devil? Look at the suffering and starving people in this world—"
In the city, some people were persuaded to go back, some people were deterred by the power of the sniper rifle, and dared not act rashly, but in some streets, blood splattered and corpses fell on the ground.
Xu Yuanzong's brothers fought hard, and in the end, he was the only one who escaped the two streets full of blood. Wang Dai and others chased and blocked him, cutting him with scars all over his body. Later it became a plea and persuasion to the crowd. But not surrender.
"Pharaoh, what did he say? I don't understand a few words..."
"The words over there in Hankou." Wang Dai said, "If you are obsessed, kill it."
The voice fell, he rushed forward, Xu Yuanzong attacked with a knife, Wang Dai moved like an electric shock, the long knife slashed his ribs, and then another slashed his back, and the third knife reached his left shoulder and kicked him out. Xu Yuanzong was indeed a master, with extremely strong vitality. He was still staggering and fighting back with blood all over his body. In the next moment, he was finally slashed by the knife light through his neck, and his head flew out.
Xu Yuanzong's team fought and fled all the way, and at this moment, they were all slaughtered.
In fact, Wang Dai and others still had some respect for their group of people who fought and fled and refused to surrender, and persuaded them to surrender several times. Wang Dai also maintained his physical strength as much as possible, hoping that if possible, he would focus on arresting and let the other party live a few more people. However, it was not until Xu Yuanzong reached the end, full of eloquence, that he really angered Wang Dai, and finally cut off the opponent's head four times in a row.
"Idiot, bah!" With a wave of his hand, Wang Dai spat out a mouthful of saliva and looked back at the corpses that came all the way, "A good group of people, but why are their heads broken!"
…
"A mighty hero, a song and a cry—"
In a yard three streets away from the street where Xu Yuanzong died, Huang Nanzhong clenched his fists. As he spoke, he turned to Huang Jianfei, Huang Shan and other generals and said, "Did you hear that voice? That is my Wu Dynasty. The cry of heroes, tonight is the time to decide the lifeline of the whole world, even if you and I may die here, we will be remembered by the world and history together with those heroes, and will be immortal in this world—"
Everyone nodded, their blood boiled.
On the other side of the city, Guan Shanhai was sitting in the yard, listening to all the movements outside, clenching his fists and trembling.
"Wait, wait, wait..."
he muttered to himself.
…
The members of the Huaxia Army counted the events that happened in the city one by one. After more than an hour after the initial explosion, they began to summarize and make periodic reports.
"… The first round of chaos basically appeared in the first half hour. After being quickly suppressed, the chaos in the city began to decrease, and the enemy's intentions and goals began to become irregular. We estimate that there will be some small things tonight. A large-scale incident has appeared... However, the overly resolute suppression seems to have frightened some people. According to the secret reports we released, many Green Forest people who secretly gathered together have begun to discuss giving up the action, and some of us have not yet warning..."
…
When the members of the headquarters went up to the lookout tower to report to Ning Yi, the second young master Ning Ji, who was in high spirits, was questioning an old grandma who was slow to get home. The grandma was carrying a jar of pickles: "I brought something back from my daughter. , the jar is heavy, so I rested for a while..."
Ning Ji checked the pickle jar - he thought it could be filled with gunpowder, but unfortunately it didn't: "Where is your home?"
"Just up the hill ahead."
"Oh, thank you, little brother."
Ning Ji's face was gloomy, the old grandmother walked forward with the pickle jar with difficulty, his shoulders slumped even more, and he followed.
"Grandma, let me take it back for you."
"Oh, thank you, little brother."
"...No thanks, that's what I should do."
…
"...In addition, when the sixteenth team was performing the task, they accidentally found Ning Ji running around the city. In order to avoid too much trouble, the team leader Yao Shubin left him and temporarily agreed to take him on the task. This is not long. It was reported earlier."
"Ning Ji..." Ning Yi, who was bored looking around on the tower, was stunned for a while, then thought about it, it was very reasonable, it would be strange that this guy didn't scramble around, he brought the map, "Which side is the sixteenth group in charge of? come..."
"Pine Tree Pavilion."
"Did something big happen over there?"
"At the beginning, a few people were arrested. After he arrived, it seemed that nothing happened. The arrest of Wang Xiangfo was nearby, but later reported that Ning Ji did not participate in it... Really lucky general."
"...Forget it." Ning Yi thought for a while, "Let him go, it's not the first time I've participated in an operation anyway. Hmph, I'll leave him in the school and lock him up in September..."
****************
The night wind was blowing unhurriedly, and the stars and the moon in the sky gradually moved their positions. In the open space in front of the temple on the slope of the pine tree pavilion, Ning Ji was sometimes nervous and sometimes bored, walking around, chatting with people occasionally, and climbing occasionally. I went to the big tree and looked into the distance. I also ran up to the tower to borrow a sniper's telescope to see the liveliness of other places.
Also sent the old grandmother home.
But there is no enemy.
"I think you're targeting me... Lao Yao, did you crow mouth secretly say something that shouldn't be said... "
"I am also on a mission! Then this area is very peaceful! What can I do! Brother Tian!"
"I don't care, I'm going somewhere else. I'm not staying with you!"
"It's all agreed upon, the gentleman will be quick with every word, if you want to break your word, you will leave. Brothers, I won't say anything to you, and I don't like to chat with people, you know..."
"Ah ah ah ah ah —" It would be better to shout in front of Yao Shubin, holding his face in his eyes, and Yao Shubin pushed him away, only to find it funny. Ning Ji's appearance is beautiful, and it is not ambiguous to kill people on the battlefield, and his murderous aura is especially scary, but when he does not have any murderous intentions, he looks a little stupid.
"Don't be like this, brother, at this time, you run to other places, and you have finished the fight, and maybe you just ran away, and something happened here, right? Where is the accident in the city? It's all the same, let's wait and see, the important thing is to be patient..."
Feeling that what Yao Shubin said actually made sense, Ning Ji suddenly felt a little autistic.
Halfway through the hour, something finally happened nearby. A few thieves who wanted to be heroes went to a nearby house and set fire to it. When they arrived, they quickly knocked the gong. Ning Ji and others rushed over and surrounded them from both sides. When they arrived, the three thieves were taken away. The two soldiers who had copied the bread were knocked down with one punch and one kick, curled up and rolled on the ground.
Ning Ji walked over and kicked a little thief on the back.
Hai Shi gradually passed, and when time entered Zi Shi, there were very few pedestrians in the city. Occasionally, there seemed to be the sound of beating gongs and drums, all of which sounded in the distance, as rare as the hair of some senior researchers in the Gewu Institute. Ning Ji finally gave up.
"I want to go home."
"We're on duty until tomorrow morning."
"I'm going home, I'm not on duty, I'm going back to sleep."
"Oh, I'll find someone to take you back. At your age, you should go to bed earlier..."
"Old Yao, you crow's mouth, remember it for me..."
"After finishing the work, I will find you to eat hot pot tomorrow, and apologize. This time it was my fault. I was unlucky. I didn't meet a thief, so Brother Tian didn't have a good time..."
Yao Shubin said, he couldn't help laughing.
Ning Ji didn't want to see his mouth again, so he turned around and left. Yao Shubin called a catcher and followed him back. Euphemistically called escort, in fact, it is naturally surveillance - Ningji knew this, but he had no choice. He had promised the other party before that he wanted to perform the task together, and Yao Shubin had indeed taken the responsibility. If you want to blame this, you can only blame the bad guys in the city. I swore before me that the guy who was clamoring in front of him could form a division. When no one did it, he didn’t dare to move. Someone here did it first. , There are so few people who really dare to come out as bad guys, why can't they seize the opportunity...
Stupid stuff! Coward! unreliable—
He scolded in his stomach all the way, and returned to the small yard where he lived angrily. The chaser who followed made sure that he had entered the door before waving away. Ning Ji sat in the yard for a while, only to feel physically and mentally exhausted. I knew it would be more interesting to monitor the little dog this night. The old dog saw the chaos in the city and would definitely say some shameless nonsense...
But at this moment, he didn't want to go any further, mainly because there was indeed a strong defense of the Huaxia Army in the city. It's okay to dodge some masters with your own skills without thinking, but in such a situation, if you run around somewhere and are suddenly discovered by the masters and instructors in the Huaxia Army, the situation will be embarrassing. It's good to be beaten in a daze, but if you are judged to be a threat and shoot from a distance, it's too worthless.
He sighed for a while in the yard, listening to the faint commotion in the distance, which made him even more annoyed. He went to the kitchen pot to get some cold rice and ate it. He had no intention of practicing martial arts and was ready to sleep.
Lying on the bed, he just ate something to support his stomach, then got up again and took a walk in the courtyard. At this time, most of the time has passed, it is the early morning of July 21st, the sky is shrouded in stars, at a certain moment, Ning Ji stopped in the yard.
There was movement outside.
It was the sound of cautious footsteps from many people, and then someone knocked on the door.
Ning Ji stood under the eaves and waited for a moment, the door knocked three times, he was excited, and then walked over to open the door with heavy steps.
Someone was climbing over the wall and peeping inside.
Ning Ji opened the door, and there was a dark figure outside, with a bloody aura. Two people stretched out their hands at the same time, pushed Ning Ji's shoulders, pushed Ning Ji to the side, staggered back, and fell to the ground. The fastest man ran towards the courtyard at a high speed with light effort to check whether there were other people in the room, and there was also steel. The knife stretched out and stabbed in front of Ning Ji.
Several familiar faces emerged in the crowd, one of them was a strong and honest-looking man: "Little Brother Long, please don't yell." He then introduced to the others: "This is the martial arts tournament. That little military doctor, surnamed Long and named Aotian, secretly resells military supplies to us, and once the matter is exposed, he will not be able to get rid of it..."
Countless stars in the sky seemed to be blinking playful eyes, Ning Ji was lying on the ground in the yard with his hands open and defenseless. He was quietly feeling the most intense and exciting moment of the summer.
Bad guy, here we come...
