As soon as he jumped out of the window, he heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air behind him.

Not only that, there was also the sound of dense crossbow mechanisms coming from the courtyard wall outside the attic.

Shen Lian's face changed, and he finally understood why Lin Zhongtian kicked the table away.

It turned out that Lord Tan had already laid a tight net and mobilized hundreds of officers and soldiers to surround the Jiaofangsi.

At this moment, not only was the attic filled with their people, but the outside of the attic and on the courtyard wall were also filled with officers and soldiers holding bows and crossbows.

Seeing the rain of arrows coming from the courtyard wall, Lin Zhongtian was not in a hurry. He held the girl in his arms and caught up with the table. He stomped his right foot on it, climbed up higher, dodged the oncoming rain of arrows, and flew directly out of the courtyard wall with the force of a leap.

At the same time, the rolling table's falling trajectory was changed by this kick.

As luck would have it, it hit the officers and soldiers standing on the courtyard wall.

The officers and soldiers who were hit were thrown backwards against the wall and fell heavily to the ground as if they had been hit hard.

One of the soldiers covered the back of his head which was severely injured, stars in his eyes, and stood up staggeringly. Suddenly, he was hit hard by a heavy object falling from the sky. He immediately spurted blood from his mouth, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted completely.

"Sorry bro."

Shen Lian couldn't help but apologize, then he gritted his teeth, stood up with the help of his long sword, and continued to stagger forward.

After he took a few steps, seven or eight soldiers rushed out from behind him, locked their eyes on Shen Lian, and rushed over shouting.

The familiar shouts and cries of killing reached his ears, causing Shen Lian to be dazed for a moment.

It was as if he was back to the bloody Shura battlefield eight years ago. Everywhere he looked were vicious enemies, and he was just a small boat isolated and helpless in the vast sea of ​​enemies.

Soon, the enemy's blade brought Shen Lian back to reality.

Shen Lian staggered to avoid the long sword swinging in front of him, roared, and rushed towards the enemy.

“Puff——”

The sharp Xiuchun Sword cut off the enemy's arm, and blood splattered on Shen Lian's chest and cheeks.

Shen Lian wiped his face roughly and glared at the officers and soldiers in front of him with bloodshot eyes.

"kill!"

Shen Lian roared, raised the Embroidered Spring Sword in his hand and swung forward.

At this moment, an arrow flew past him like lightning and hit the officer in the chest.

The rough arrow pierced the soldier's heart and instantly broke all the strength in his body.

Looking at the figure in front of him, who was collapsed on the ground with an unwilling look on his face, Shen Lian could not help but stand there in a daze.

Immediately afterwards, arrows flew past him one after another, accurately killing all the officers and soldiers one by one.

Shen Lian turned his head and saw Lin Zhongtian on the roof of the attic thirty steps away, holding a longbow and aiming in this direction.

Seeing him turning his head to look at him, Lin Zhongtian smiled, pulled the empty bow provocatively, then turned around and jumped off the roof.

“…Damn it.”

Shen Lian gritted his teeth, gripped the Embroidered Spring Sword tightly, turned around and chased in the direction where Lin Zhongtian disappeared.

Things have come to this point, and he has no other way out. He can only go down this path for the time being.

After turning the corner, Shen Lian staggered a few steps, leaning against the wall and gasping for breath.

After experiencing two waves of arrow rain and rounds of fighting, Shen Lian was now exhausted and covered with wounds.

His left arm was hit by two arrows, his right leg was hit by one arrow, and his body was pierced by seven strings shot by Lin Zhongtian.

If it weren't for the tenacious will to survive that supported him, he would have fallen to the ground and fainted.

"Are you still okay?"

A surprised voice suddenly sounded in front of him.

Shen Lian suddenly raised his head and looked at the figure in front of him.

“Fu… Fu Qingyun!”

Shen Lian pronounced the name with gritted teeth.

Although the scene in front of him was a little blurry, he recognized the face that he would never forget at a glance.

Lin Zhongtian blinked, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of his eyes, then waved again. Seeing that he still looked out of focus, he curled his lips and said to the person next to him:

"Forget it, this guy can't hold on any longer, you go and carry him!"

“…”

Shen Lian was stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that there was another person next to Lin Zhongtian.

Just as he was on high alert and was about to push away the man's arm and take a look at his face, a familiar whisper completely froze him in place.

"Second brother, it's me."

Jin Yichuan's low whisper came into his ears.

Perhaps it was because the familiar voice eliminated all his vigilance. Shen Lian was stunned for a moment. Before he had time to think about why his third brother appeared next to Lin Zhongtian, his remaining consciousness was overwhelmed by the tidal feeling of fatigue.

Jin Yichuan reached out at the right time and held the unconscious Shen Lian in his arms.

Looking at the wounds and blood on his brother's body, Jin Yichuan frowned tightly.

Lin Zhongtian turned around, picked up the unconscious girl in the corner, and said softly: "I know you have a lot of questions, but now is not the time to talk. I will explain them one by one when we get to the clinic."

“…”

Jin Yichuan frowned, but when he heard the hurried footsteps coming from afar, he nodded, carried Shen Lian on his back and followed Lin Zhongtian.

At the same time, in the main entrance lobby of the Jiaofangsi, Tan Li and a few of his confidants hurried down the stairs, ignoring the young girls shivering in the corner of the lobby, and quickly walked to a eunuch, bowing respectfully.

"Father-in-law."

"Hmm? Sir Tan, how is the situation upstairs? Have you caught the criminal who robbed the prison?"

"My Lord, the murderer...ran away."

“Run away?!”

The eunuch subconsciously raised his shrill voice.

Tan Li's body trembled, and he lowered his head in shame: "Eunuch, it's not that I didn't try my best, it's just that the thug is very skilled in martial arts, and he has experts to help him. I used a powerful crossbow, but I couldn't take him down."

"...Is there really such a great master?"

"Absolutely true!"

Tan Li nodded quickly and said, "If you don't believe it, you can ask those officers and soldiers."

Seeing that Tan Li spoke sincerely, the eunuch did not dare to press the issue any further. After all, with so many eyes watching him, even if Tan Li had the courage of a bear or a leopard, he would not dare to lie in front of him.

The eunuch glanced at Tan Li, who was hanging his head, and snorted coldly, saying dissatisfiedly: "According to what you said, hundreds of soldiers can't take him down, then in this big world, can he walk sideways?"

"Not necessarily." Tan Li raised his head cautiously and said, "I have been handling cases for decades and have arrested countless martial arts masters. Some of them were even more difficult to deal with than Fu Qingyun, but in the end, I still caught them."

"Oh?" The eunuch raised his eyebrows. "So, Master Tan already has an idea?"

"Yes, eunuch!" Tan Li nodded quickly and said, "Although the origin of Fu Qingyun is still a mystery, I have some impression of the expert beside him. It's just that the situation was urgent just now, so I didn't remember him immediately. Now that I think about it, that person seems to be the general flag under the captain Zhang Ying of Beizhen Prefecture. I met him in the sky prison some time ago."

"Jinyiwei?"

The eunuch's face turned serious and he said solemnly, "Those are the emperor's personal soldiers. Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

Tan Li nodded decisively: "I'm sure."

The eunuch's expression was uncertain: "No wonder the thugs were able to rob the prison, it turns out they had planted a spies in the Royal Guards. I will go back and report to His Majesty. This Northern Pacification Division really needs to be cleaned up!"

After saying this, the eunuch waved his sleeves, turned around and walked out of the Jiaofangsi.

Tan Li quickly called him: "Eunuch, there is one more thing..."

"What's the matter? Tell me!"

"Nothing." Tan Li said carefully, "It's just that musketeer..."

"You think it's too slow, don't you?" The eunuch glanced at him and whispered, "Don't worry, I was wrong this time. I didn't expect Fu Qingyun to escape so quickly. Next time, I will definitely send the musketeers to you as soon as possible!"

"Thank you very much, father-in-law!"

Tan Li immediately bowed respectfully.
