Chapter 41 Night Attack
The night breeze is cool.
The forest was silent.
The silence makes people feel uneasy.
As if to confirm this uneasiness, two men in black suddenly flew over.
Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu spotted each other immediately, then rushed forward with swords in hand, and soon became entangled with each other in mid-air.
For a moment, under the reflection of the campfire, the flashes of swords and the shadows of knives stood out, and the hissing sound of the swords colliding immediately woke up the sleeping people.
The awakened officers and soldiers didn't know if there were any other people besides these two people. They quickly divided into two teams with swords in hand to protect Ouyang's family.
Meng Yi and Xiao Qi, who were awakened just after falling asleep, looked at the four people fighting with a very calm expression, then looked at each other, nodded slightly, and flew in front of the Ouyang family to protect them.
After a few breaths, Xu Yuzhu suddenly said to Xiao Qi, "It's best to end this battle quickly. These two are as strong as them and must be top-notch."
Xiao Qi also noticed the problem. Although it was only a few breaths, more than ten moves had already been exchanged and both sides were evenly matched.
If we continue like this, not only will it be too time-consuming, but the outcome is also uncertain.
So, Xiao Qi nodded to Xu Yuzhu, and then shouted: "Meng Yi, go ahead, and fight quickly and decisively."
"yes."
The two flew towards the two fighting circles...
Two to one.
Even if the strength is equal, the number of people can suppress the other party.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Yuzhu carefully observed the moves of the two men in black again.
Every move was fatal, and left them no way of retreat.
The meaning is very clear. These two people are determined to die and are filled with murderous intent.
Although two to one sounds like they can suppress the opponent in terms of numbers, the opponent's strength should not be underestimated. In just a moment, Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu were both injured.
Seeing this, the three Ouyang Minglou brothers' eyes sparkled with excitement, and they looked eager to try.
However, Xu Yuzhu said, "Watch their moves carefully. If you go up, how will you break these killer moves?"
Xu Yuzhu's words immediately made the three brothers more excited, and they watched more seriously.
Although Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu were injured by the newcomers, they cooperated well with each other, and their attack power was not weak even though they were injured.
Sometimes they attacked from the left and right, sometimes from above and below, and even when they were right in front of the man in black night clothes, they switched their attack directions...
This level of tacit understanding surprised the other party slightly. He hadn't expected to actually meet his match this time. It seemed that the deaths of those people before him were not in vain at all.
The man in black saw Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu, swung his sword, and then retreated like a white crane. He then said, "I didn't expect that three of Lord Wu's capable men would actually act as yamen runners. No wonder all the people around Lord Wu lately are strangers."
When Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu heard the man in black mention Lord Wu, their eyes narrowed and they looked at the man in black with slightly squinted eyes.
Seeing the two men remain silent, the man in black was startled, then looked at them and continued, "You two, are you not worried about the safety of your Lord Wu?"
Seeing that the man in black did not attack them but chose to talk to them, and mentioned Lord Wu from the Ministry of War in his words, the two of them thought for a moment, and then looked at the man in black with amusement at the same time.
The venomous Xiaojiu even said, "Speak directly of what you want to say. Don't beat around the bush. Sir Wu, are you trying to attack Sir Wu and are being hunted down instead?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that Lord Wu was also your target. I have to thank you so much."
Xiao Jiu, who was speaking, had just finished this sentence when he immediately changed the subject: "Sir, are you trying to buy time and wait for reinforcements? It's a pity..."
Having said that, Xiaojiu immediately attacked the man in black like a cannonball.
Xiaoqi followed closely behind with sword in hand.
The three men tangled up again, swords and knives facing each other, going back and forth at such a fast speed that it was hard to keep up.
The battle here was in full swing, and the men in black over there had been suppressed by Meng Yi and Xiao Ba.
After taking a few steps back, the injured man in black raised his sword and attacked again.
Meng Yi and Xiao Ba had stern looks in their eyes as they swung their swords.
Everyone was paying attention to the two fighting circles and did not notice that Ouyang Hui, who was being protected by officers and soldiers, was looking at Ouyang Jin, who was also being protected, with a pair of cold eyes.
If looks could kill, Ouyang Jin would have been beheaded by now.
After staring at Ouyang Jin for a while, Ouyang Hui set his sights on Ouyang Qin again, thinking: You bastards are bastards. You dare to not take me seriously just by following behind Ouyang Jin. If I can't deal with you this time, I will kill you when I get to the northwest.
Ouyang Jin, Xu Yuzhu, let's just wait and see. Sooner or later, you'll kneel at my feet and beg for mercy, humph!
No one knew what Ouyang Hui was thinking, but his cold gaze, which had not yet been withdrawn from Ouyang Qin, happened to be seen by his eldest son Ouyang Mingqing.
It was precisely because of his father's cold and murderous gaze that Ouyang Mingqing quickly averted his gaze, lowering his head and pretending he saw nothing. He also began to think in his mind...
Seventeen-year-old Ouyang Mingqing was able to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar. In addition to being a good student, he was also quite intelligent. At this moment, he lowered his head and thought about what he could do.
Over the years, his father was not bad to him, but he was not very good to him either. Although he entered the academy based on his own ability, his second aunt gave him a letter of recommendation.
Without this letter of recommendation, he would not have achieved much even if he had been admitted to the academy.
Looking at the robe he was wearing, he realized that it was sewn by his third aunt himself. It seemed that his father and mother had never given him anything except asking him to study hard in the academy.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Mingqing felt a little sad.
Apart from the monthly salary, she had never received a penny from her parents. Ming Yan, who was two years younger than her, was much better off than her, not to mention Ouyang Feilian, who had always been spoiled by her family.
Ouyang Mingqing's nose suddenly felt a little sour, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes that no one could see, and then fell silently to the ground.
Closing his eyes slightly and taking a deep breath, Ouyang Mingqing raised his head and first looked at his two uncles who were protected by the soldiers, and then his gaze fell on the fighting circle.
The two men in black have been surrounded by Meng Yi, Xiao Qi and the other three. Looking at the situation, Meng Yi, Xiao Qi and the others are now in the upper hand.
The two men in black gritted their teeth and fought again, picking up their swords and continuing to fight with Meng Yi and the other four...
However, reality is reality.
After Meng Yi and Xiao Jiu swung their swords, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba also rushed forward with their swords, stabbing directly into the chests of the two men in black, and then slapped them with their palms.
The two men in black immediately flew backwards, and then hit the tree trunk with two bangs, and fell to the ground with a thud...
