Chapter 1052
Yanagi Zongyan is trying to discuss with the Lord of Stone Island about the fire attack on the main hall. And Ji Dingzhong stood on the stone steps, watching Monk Guangzhi walk out of the temple gate with more than a dozen disciples, but Liu Sheng Zongyan walked towards the stone island lord with a gloomy face. Ji Dingxin knew that something was wrong, and secretly thought that this old guy would find out that he had fallen into a big trap, and he was afraid that he would immediately order the hall to be burned. In this way, their own side will inevitably be defeated. Thinking of this, while instructing a disciple of the Nie family next to him to invite the old lady Nie out of the main hall to prevent the Japanese from setting fire to the main hall, he called Huang Chong and the Zhao family patriarch over, wanting to discuss how to deal with the next attack of the Japanese invaders.
Just when Yanagi Zongyan and Ji Dingzhong were thinking about countermeasures, there were feathered arrows flying into the temple from outside the temple. The two were shocked and looked at the temple gate in unison.
In an instant, the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air outside the temple was loud. Immediately afterwards, the sound of "Duo Duo" was heard, presumably the sound of an arrow hitting the wall of the City God Temple. The sound was as dense as raindrops falling into the water, and it was heart-wrenching to hear. Moreover, the feather arrows shot from the temple gate are no longer as weak and powerless as Fang Cai, and after flying into the temple gate, they often have no residual momentum, and they can fly out of five or six zhang before falling to the ground. Those who wanted to shoot arrows were already approaching the City God Temple.
Originally, there were dozens of widows blocking the courtyard in front of the temple gate to prevent the people of Fengmen Village and Luoyang Mansion and Xiuwu County from escaping quickly. However, the feather arrows shot in the temple gate became urgent and fast, and these widows had no choice but to scatter and dodge.
Everyone in the courtyard knew that there must have been a great change outside the temple, and they were all shocked and uncertain. Seeing this, Yanagi Zongyan turned his head and said angrily to the lord of Shidao: "Did you see it? It must be the enemy's reinforcements who saw the fire in the temple, so they rushed to the rescue!"
The Lord of Stone Island also regretted it a little at this moment, and hurriedly ordered his leaders to extinguish the fire. Yanagi Zongyan sneered: "The enemy has arrived, what's the use of you extinguishing the fire now?!"
Before Liu Sheng Zongyan could speak, he saw a figure flickering at the entrance of the temple, and three gray-clothed monks staggered in, each with a few feather arrows inserted in their bodies. I saw that the three monks turned pale and looked frightened, and it was not until they broke into the courtyard that they breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that the three of them just ran down the stone steps, and more than a dozen feather arrows flew in from outside the temple gate. These feather arrows came in a hurry, only listening to the sound of "poof" a few times, the three monks were about to be hit by the arrow, screaming and falling to the ground, just lying on the corpses of Shi Nianhao, Yang Ziqiao, Cai Xiao and others who had been shot to death by the Japanese Kou before. I saw that the three monks twitched a few times, and then they fell silent.
Seeing this, the surrounding pirates were so frightened that they turned blank and took a few steps back.
The face of the Shidao Lord changed, for fear that the disciples of the Tianshan Sect and the Nie family and others would desperately rush out of the temple gate when their subordinates retreated, so they immediately shouted loudly, asking the Japanese to not retreat and defend the temple gate.
When Yanagi Soiwa heard Lord Shidao's order, he was even more annoyed in his heart, secretly thinking that although this person commanded more than a thousand Fuso samurai, he was so reckless. At this time, it was already dark, and although the enemy's reinforcements arrived outside the temple, the Nie family would never dare to rush out of the temple gate, otherwise they would have to die under the arrows. However, the lord of Shidao panicked and asked all the warriors to set up a formation in front of the temple gate. In this way, the enemy outside the temple fired cold arrows, fearing that these warriors would either die or be wounded.
Thinking of this, Yanagi Zongyan was about to remind the stone island master to be careful, when he suddenly heard the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air outside the temple getting louder and louder. Immediately afterwards, two gray-clothed monks appeared at the temple gate in a panic, but before their feet crossed the threshold of the temple gate, they only heard two monks screaming loudly and falling to the ground almost at the same time, each with five or six feather arrows inserted in their vests. Most of these feathered arrows penetrated into the bodies of the two monks, and they were instantly shot to death on the threshold.
Ji Dingzhong stood on the stone steps in front of the main hall, and saw that the situation inside and outside the temple had changed greatly, and his heart was surprised and happy. At this time, the old lady Nie, with the support of the two children of the Nie family, had already walked out of the main hall. When Ji Dingzhong saw that Old Lady Nie had arrived, he hurriedly stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Daddy, someone has arrived outside the temple." These men shot five bald donkeys, and it looks like our reinforcements......"
Seeing Ji Dingzhong's excited expression, Old Lady Nie glanced at him dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice: "The good luck and evil are unknown, but you are so uncontrollable, how can you do great things?!"
Ji Dingzhong was shocked, only then did he realize that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly lowered his head and stood solemnly, and said: "Daddy's lesson is yes, and the child should remember it." ”
The patriarch of the Zhao family was originally depressed and desperate, but when he saw the sudden change in the situation, he was surprised and delighted. Seeing that the old lady Nie walked out, she hurriedly approached and said in a trembling voice: "Now that the Japanese are in chaos, we can take this opportunity to rush out of the temple." As long as Brother Nie gives an order, let's move forward desperately, and we can't stop us if we want to......"
The Zhao family patriarch's voice did not fall, only to hear the old lady Nie sneer. His heart sank, and he immediately stopped talking. Old Lady Nie said, "How do you know that those people outside the temple are here to help us?"
As soon as Old Lady Nie said this, Ji Dingzhong, the head of the Zhao family, and Huang Chong, who were standing beside him, were all shocked. The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what Old Lady Nie meant, and was speechless for a while. I only heard Old Lady Nie say word by word: "It's just such a coincidence. The old man and Master Li were suspicious, and casually said that we and the reinforcements raised the fire as a signal, but we didn't want the Japanese to use the fire attack and burn us all to death in the main hall. When the fire was lit, I think you were all a little apprehensive in your heart, just like the old people. I am afraid that the Japanese will see through our plan and set fire to the main hall, and we will inevitably die without a place to bury. At present, someone outside the temple shot an arrow and killed a few monks, and everyone believed that our reinforcements had arrived, and they were bent on escaping from the temple. Hehe, even if it is our reinforcements, at this time, the black light outside the temple is blinding, if we rush out in a daze, we will die under the random arrows. What's more, who of you dares to assert that it is our reinforcements outside the temple?!"
Ji Dingzhong, the patriarch of the Zhao family, and Huang Chong were shocked, and no one spoke for a while.
At this time, Yanagi Zongyan had already stopped the stone island lord and persuaded him not to force his warriors to block the gate of the City God Temple, otherwise he could only be sent to death in vain. Under the light of the fire, I saw that the face of the lord of Shidao was flushed, and he said viciously: "The entrance of the main hall is only a dozen zhang away from the temple gate, if we can't block the way and let the enemy escape, we will immediately become a turtle in the urn, and we can only be slaughtered." Your Excellency Yanagi, you and I have joined forces to do great things. We can't fail to accomplish a big thing, but let's all bury ourselves in this ghost temple?!"
The stone island lord's voice fell, and he saw a figure suddenly appear at the top of the wall on the left side of the temple gate, and flew straight into the courtyard. At this time, he was facing the wall, looking intently, but saw that the figure was an apprentice of Monk Guangzhi. I saw the monk leaping in the air, but his face was frightened.
Yanagi Zongyan turned his back to the temple gate, and when he saw that the stone island lord's face was different, he looked straight behind him, knowing that something must have happened. He turned around and saw the monk's body over the wall, rising to the highest point he could leap on, and about to fall into the courtyard. At that moment, dozens of feathered arrows rained down from behind him, shooting him like a hedgehog. I only heard the monk's scream, his body fell suddenly, and he fell into the courtyard with a "bang", causing the snow on the ground to fly more than half a person high.
When everyone saw this, they were all shocked. Even Yanagi Zongyan and the Ishishima Lord were heartbroken, and involuntarily took two steps back.
The apprentices of the monk Guangzhi were shot to death one after another, and the children of the Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du families who stood up and down the stone steps of the main hall and the people who were able to catch the fast were surprised and delighted, only to say that the reinforcements had arrived, and all of them were greatly boosted, and they wanted to rush out of the temple gate and join the reinforcements. Yin Zhutou was also excited, and turned his head to Li Qiufeng, who was standing on the side, and said: "Lord Li, let's kill the past, cooperate with the reinforcements, slaughter all these turtle sons and bastards, and avenge the tragic death of the brother!"
Li Qiufeng saw the sudden change in the situation, and his heart was also uncertain. Seeing that the apprentices of Monk Guangzhi were shot to death one after another, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, if Mr. Liu and the others arrived, they would all be martial arts masters, and their sword kung fu would naturally be proficient. It's just that these strong bows and crossbows are not their forte. Looking at the death of these monks, it should be a large group of soldiers from outside. I think it was Hu Kun's men who arrived. Could it be that he had just made up a temporary idea with Old Lady Nie and deliberately made up lies, but he accidentally bumped into Ruyangwei's iron horse and led Ruyangwei's iron horse outside the temple?
