Chapter 53 Gui Yuzong
"Not good." Wu Xiong was furious, only hating himself for being careless.
The subordinate died, and in a rage, he forgot that protecting Wu Yuan's safety is the number one priority!
"No!"
"Young Master." The other five city guard centurions were anxious, but they were separated by more than a hundred meters, and could only watch thirteen armor-piercing arrows shoot at Wu Yuan.
"quick!"
"Protect your son." The four centurions who had been following Wu Yuan closely were all shocked and angry. With their strength, if they took an armor-piercing arrow, they would be seriously injured!
If there were only three or four armor-piercing arrows, the four of them could still hope to protect Wu Yuan together.
Thirteen?
Nearly impossible to cover!
Note, once the armor-piercing arrow is shot, how terrifying is the speed? The thirteen black-armored figures have been hiding in the dark, aiming for a long time, only to hit with one blow.
The guards will not be given much reaction time at all.
... "Thirteen armor-piercing crossbows, worth thousands of gold!"
"They are only protected by four in-class masters, and they cannot be stopped."
"The one protected in the center should be Wu Yuan, shoot him directly." More than a dozen black armored figures stared at him, especially the burly figure in the black armor at the head, full of murderous intent.
If they had attacked with armor-piercing crossbows from the very beginning, under the protection of ten elite experts, Wu Yuan would probably survive.
Ambush with a crossbow, the first blow is the most unexpected and the hardest to avoid!
They recruited a large number of land bandits to launch the first wave of attacks. The purpose was to distract the attention of many guards, and it was best to disperse them.
The goal has been achieved.
Only by shooting and killing Wu Yuan, the mission will be considered complete.
"Hoo!" "Hoo!" "Hoo!" When Wu Xiong and the others saw these black-armored ambushers, in an instant, the terrifyingly powerful armor-piercing arrows had shot in front of Wu Yuan.
One of them, which no guards could stop, shot directly at Wu Yuan's head!
Suddenly.
"Wow!"
"Wow!" "Wow!" A strange sword light lit up out of thin air, and immediately divided into thirteen, turning into a sky full of sword light that enveloped the team that was advancing at high speed.
"Peng~" "Peng~" The thirteen armor-piercing arrows precisely collided with the saber lights and exploded one after another.
In an instant, Wu Yuan's life-and-death crisis was resolved.
Not a single armor-piercing arrow approached Wu Yuan.
"this!"
"It's him? The steward?" The four centurion guards who were about to fight for their lives looked at the incredible Gu Ji who suddenly jumped up and had strong sword skills in shock!
With one blow, thirteen armor-piercing arrows were instantly smashed into pieces!
What kind of terrifying power?
Such a master was secretly sent by the sect to protect Wu Yuan?
"Stop." Gu Ji said indifferently, he had already jumped onto Wu Yuan's horse, holding a knife in one hand and embracing Wu Yuan in the other.
He suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, causing the horse to stop quickly!
"Woo!"
"Wow!" The four centurion guards pulled the reins one after another.
"Young master, I will protect you, you go to help the captain and the others, and kill everyone!" Gu Ji's voice was indifferent, and the murderous intent was prominent: "Remember, just leave a few alive for questioning."
"yes!"
"Kill." The four guards were all excited, and immediately turned their horses, accelerated sharply, and rushed towards the gentle **** of the mountain.
At this time.
"Whoo!"
"Wow!" The knife lights up!
"Peng!"
Still none of them could get close to Wu Yuan.
Gu Ji's terrifying strength is undoubtedly highlighted!
There is no third wave of arrows.
Because, the first batch of guards Wu Xiong and the others to kill, the moment they noticed the black-armored men, they frantically formed an formation and rushed towards the dozen or so black-clothed figures, forcing them to discard their bows and crossbows and draw their knives. Fight!
"team leader!"
"How can there be a first-class master?"
"What should I do?" These figures in black were all terrified, they were well-trained, and they also fought against Wu Xiong and the others.
But, in terms of strength, they are far behind!
Out of the dozen or so black-clothed figures, only two have the strength of third-rate masters, and the rest are only martial artists.
As for the large number of land bandits?
Faced with the terrifying disparity in strength, they all completely collapsed.
Especially the leader of the land bandits, after seeing the terrifying power of 'Gu Ji', his scalp was about to explode.
"A second-rate expert may be able to avoid armor-piercing arrows, or even split three or five arrows, but can he split 13 arrows in an instant? Absolutely impossible!" The leader of the land bandits was terrified.
Can smash thirteen armor-piercing arrows with one blow.
At least a first-class master!
"Licheng obviously doesn't have any first-rate masters. That old guy from Dongye County is already old. Where did this master come from?"
"This mission, how could you provoke a first-class master?" The leader of the land bandits frantically fled to the depths of the dense forest.
No more fighting courage.
If you are a second-rate expert, you can still try one or two with the advantage of numbers and the armor-piercing crossbow, maybe you can win!
Can you be a first-class master?
In terms of physical fitness, they are at least three times that of third-rate masters, plus the gap in fighting skills?
Ten times the difference in strength is not enough to describe.
"Boom!" The air roared faintly.
The bandit leader turned his head in horror, and saw Gu Ji holding Wu Yuan in one hand and rushing towards him at an alarming speed.
Gu Ji stepped on the ground with one foot, dust rose along the way, the knife light was on, and the land bandits who were fleeing in all directions fell down like mowing grass.
Every neck was cut open!
Obviously leading a person, he was still killing enemies along the way, but his speed was actually faster than that of a fierce horse.
rushed directly to the bandit leader.
"Senior, spare your life! Spare me! I have important information!" The bandit leader suddenly knelt down, kowtowed, and begged for mercy.
beat? Can't beat it!
Escape? Can't escape!
Only by begging for mercy can there be a glimmer of hope for survival. The bandit leader doesn't want to die like this.
"Wow!" A terrifying knife light passed by, splitting apart in an instant.
"ah!"
The leader of the bandits showed pain and fear. The light of the spatula swept across his arms and thighs in an instant, breaking the tendons of his limbs and hamstrings.
He flew up in an instant and landed heavily again.
Coughing up blood.
Blood dripping all over his body, it was a bit difficult to get up for a while.
"Escape!"
"It's terrible, run away." Seeing this scene, the group of land bandits finally collapsed completely, without any thought of resisting, some even discarded their weapons, only hating themselves for not escaping fast enough.
But.
"Puff!" "Puff!" Gu Ji grabbed Wu Yuan's inner armor with one hand to protect him, but his speed was still astonishingly fast, the sword lights lit up, and a gangster fell down.
Those centurion guards also divided into four people, and they rushed to both sides of the battlefield in a tacit understanding, and they kept strangling in groups of two, chasing and killing the fastest fleeing land bandit.
Just dozens of breaths.
The sound of screaming and killing disappeared, and the gentle **** forest was completely quiet. Only the corpses and blood all over the ground told the story of how terrible the battle had been here!
Hoo!
Gu Ji finally brought Wu Yuan to a stop, and let go of Wu Yuan's inner armor, allowing Wu Yuan to land.
"Huh! Huh!" Wu Yuan panted heavily, his eyes swept over the **** corpses on the ground, and there seemed to be a trace of fear.
"Young Master, I've surprised you." Gu Ji whispered, "It's just that if we don't kill all these bandits, today's news will leak out, I'm afraid it will cause some trouble."
"I understand, thank you Uncle Ji for saving me." Wu Yuan said in a low voice, his face turned pale, as if trying to maintain his composure.
Gu Ji nodded slightly.
"Sir!"
"It surprised you." Wu Xiong also gathered up with many bloodied guards.
Especially Wu Xiong, his face was full of fear.
"I don't blame you guys, who would have expected that a group of gangsters would have so many crossbows?" Wu Yuan shook his head and said, not blaming Wu Xiong and the others.
He didn't blame it.
"I hope that this kind of thing won't happen again." Gu Ji, who has always been taciturn, said in a cold voice: "Remember, our task is to protect the young master to reach the sect safely."
"Also, forget about my existence, and don't mention me to anyone." Gu Ji glanced at the guards.
"Yes!" Wu Xiong and the others bowed their heads, not daring to explain.
Wu Yuan didn't explain Gu Ji's identity, but his revealed strength already explained everything.
Besides, Wu Xiong and the others are not idiots.
The sect secretly arranged for such a master to protect Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan's importance can be imagined.
"This group of land bandits is weak, and it is impossible to have so many armor-piercing crossbows." Gu Ji said indifferently: "The group of men in black have obviously been trained, and most of them would rather commit suicide than surrender. A living person, hurry to interrogate and find out the reason as much as possible."
"yes."
Wu Xiong and the others quickly dispersed, some went to interrogate the few survivors, while others rummaged through the corpses, looking for clues and... property!
Bandits have a tradition of hiding property on their bodies.
time flies.
In just half an hour, the interrogation came to a conclusion, and the bandit leader and several other survivors were directly killed.
So far.
All the gangsters who participated in the ambush were killed!
"My lord, this is an ambush that was premeditated." Wu Xiong didn't dare to put on airs anymore, and solemnly reported: "According to what the man in the black armor said and the evidence we found from the man's body, we arranged for this The murderer of this ambush should be the 'Gui Yuzong' of Dongzhou."
"Returning to Yuzong?" A trace of doubt flashed in Wu Yuan's eyes.
"The Guiyu Sect is one of the eight major sects in Dongzhou. Its overall strength is stronger than our Hengyun Sect." Gu Ji suddenly said, "If we say that the current enemy of my Hengyun Sect is the Great Jin Empire, then, Gui Yuzong is the undisputed second."
Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
Middle Earth is vast and has a long history, and the history of each state is very complicated. Although I have read many classics in the past few months, I can only say that I have a deep understanding of Jiangzhou and Chuzhou.
Other states? I only know roughly.
The impression of Dongzhou is that it ranks second among the thirteen states in the world, second only to the holy state occupied by the Jin Empire.
The area and population of Dongzhou far surpass Jiangzhou.
Being one of the eight major sects in Dongzhou, the strength of Guiyu Sect can be imagined.
"We have clearly assigned a suspicious army, why did Gui Yuzong ambush it so quickly? Could it be that someone leaked the secret?" Wu Yuan frowned.
"Here, it's just an ambush team arranged by Gui Yuzong." Wu Xiong said: "According to what the Gui Yuzong disciple said, they didn't confirm which direction we would start from, so they arranged four teams Teams, ambush in different paths."
"The strength of the other three teams is no less than theirs." Wu Xiong said solemnly.
Gu Ji's eyelids moved slightly.
"Four teams?" Wu Yuan looked shocked: "Gui Yuzong secretly dispatched so many forces into Licheng?"
"Pay such a high price just to kill me as a specially recruited disciple?"
"Gui Yuzong, are you crazy?"
