Chapter 178 Moths to the flame
Wu Zhongyuan shouted loudly, indicating that the warning sound could be heard far in the dark night, but the people in the city were beating drums and singing and dancing at this time, and they could not hear his shouts at all. Only a few sentries came out of the gatehouse on the city wall and stretched their heads to the direction where he was.
Seeing that the news could not be transmitted back as soon as possible, Wu Zhongyuan became more and more anxious. Although the people in the city could not hear his shouts, the enemy could hear it clearly. When they learned that their whereabouts had been exposed, they would definitely seize the time to surround them.
At this time, every second is necessary. In order to return to the city as soon as possible, he could only use the same trick again, seal the nine acupoints quickly, and then use the wind and exercise technique.
The sentry on the city wall was shouting loudly, asking what had happened. Wu Zhongyuan did not reply. Even if the sentry ran into the city immediately, it would not be faster than him.
He activated the Fengxing Technique and in a flash he reached outside the city wall, jumped over and ran wildly into the city.
The people in the city did not know that the enemy was approaching and were still immersed in the festive atmosphere. Due to the noisy voices, in order to attract the attention of the tribe members as soon as possible, Wu Zhongyuan rushed to the sidelines and jumped up and shouted loudly, "The enemy is here!"
This move successfully attracted everyone's attention, and the jubilant and noisy instantly returned to silence. After two ups and downs, Wu Zhongyuan fell in front of Wu Qin and others, and said in a brief manner, "The five purple qi masters of the Niu clan approached from the west, and a large number of red and blue warriors surrounded from north to south."
At this time, all the warriors, including Wu Qin, had already stood up. When Wu Zhongyuan said something, Wu Qin frowned. After a moment of thinking, he ordered in a deep voice, "Go away immediately and prepare to face the enemy."
After Wu Qin finished speaking, everyone immediately took action. The scene at this time can only be described in one word, that is chaos. No one would have thought that the enemy would come to attack on the night of the festival, without any preparation. Neither the warrior nor the soldiers carried weapons and needed to go back and get it.
The situation was critical. After the order was issued, Wu Qin also rushed back to his residence to get weapons. The scene was chaotic, and Wu Zhongyuan could not find the grandparents and grandsons of Aluo. In desperation, he could only go to the post station to find the cloth strips and pens. No matter what the enemy's motive was for this trip, their strategy had been exposed, that was to siege the city. He had to release the letter bird before the red and blue warriors from the north and south completed the siege.
Now he is the only one in the entire promenade, and no one helps. In order to pursue speed, he did not write words, but instead drew three crosses on each cloth strip. As long as someone sees these cloth strips, he knows that something big has happened to the Daqiu.
After writing more than a dozen cross-cut strips, Wu Zhongyuan rushed to the birdhouse and began to release the birds. At the critical moment, he had no time to stuff them into the bamboo tube and tied them directly to the birds' feet.
I was worried that the birds of faith might fly randomly after being released. When I was released, I looked at them carefully. The birds of faith did not fly randomly. They were all fixed on any route they flew. After they flew, they flew directly in the established direction. Unfortunately, they were unable to fly out of the hill. At this time, the enemies outside the city were approaching, and all the birds of faith were shot down by the enemy.
Seeing this, Wu Zhongyuan complained and rushed back to the room to write again, but found that because the weather was too cold, the ink had already begun to harden and dry. He had no choice but to grab a handful of cloth strips. He wanted to bite his right index finger, but he only remembered that he had to pinch the arrow and fire the bow later. He hurriedly changed his ring finger. This time he did not rush to release the flying birds, and he tied them up seven or eight before letting them fly together.
These birds flew to all directions. After being released, he looked at them again. He could not distract himself from observing all the birds, but the few people he noticed were also shot down when they flew outside the city.
"Idiot, I don't know how to fly higher." Wu Zhongyuan cursed anxiously.
What to do? What to do? It’s still unclear how many red and blue warriors the other party came. There are five purple qi masters alone. No matter how powerful Wu Qin is, he can’t fight against five. He must send the news and ask for help from the capital.
There is only the last bird left in the capital, and it must be allowed to fly out alive.
After anxious thoughts, I re-drawn the cross cloth strips, tied them on the legs of the bird of letters, grabbed the bird of letters and put them in my arms, lifted up the air, and stepped on the eaves and walls to the east.
At this time, the five purple qi masters of the Niu Clan had already flew over the city and were falling down. Their target was obviously Wu Qin, and the place where they landed was Wu Qin's residence.
At this time, the city was already in chaos. Although the tribe members were not scared and shouted, they were mostly calling on their families who were dispersed by the crowd, and the scene was noisy and chaotic.
The warriors' reaction speed was much faster than that of ordinary people. At this time, most of the warriors had already taken their weapons and rushed towards the city walls on all sides.
Wu Zhongyuan looked around and rushed to the east city wall as fast as possible, jumped up on the ground, and then leaped out after leveraging the force on the city wall.
"Wu Zhongyuan, where are you going?" Wu Pingsu shouted from the city wall.
The enemy warriors who had previously traveled from north to south were now rendezvous, and they were about to complete the encirclement at only less than 200 meters away. Wu Zhongyuan had no time to respond, and rushed forward without saying a word.
"You coward, I saw it wrong!" Wu Pingsu cursed angrily.
At this time, Wu Zhongyuan had only a quick gap in front of him. He spared no effort to urge Fengxing to the extreme, and rushed forward at a rapid speed.
The city was empty, and the enemy soon discovered him. When he entered the range of the bow and arrow, he fired his bow and shot him one after another. Wu Zhongyuan had no time to fight back and ran desperately. The opponent miscalculated his running speed, and the arrows he shot were thrown behind him.
While rushing forward, Wu Zhongyuan urgently estimated that although his speed was amazing, the other party was siegeing against each other, so it was difficult for him to rush out before the other party completed the siege. However, things have come to this point and we have to try it anyway.
As the distance shortened, the arrows shot by the opponent were getting closer and closer to him. The enemies were more than he had expected before. The distance between them was very small. At this time, there were seven or eight of them shooting him. You had to fight back, otherwise you would be shot to death if you couldn't wait to rush out.
Take the bow in your hand, change the vertical hold to the flat grip, take two arrows, shoot the bow and shoot the nearest two people over, and take the opportunity to rush for another ten feet.
When I rushed forward, I estimated that the encirclement had closed and there was no hope, so I would definitely not be able to rush out.
Whether the news can be sent out is related to the fate of everyone in Daqiu. In critical moments, blood surged up, completely ignoring the enemy's presence, gritted his teeth and leaped up hard, reached a high place, took out the letter bird from his arms, threw it over and threw it away.
He was in mid-air without any obstruction and instantly became a living target, and everyone within the range shot arrows at him.
Not everyone's archery skills are very good, but not everyone's archery skills are very poor. Nine arrows are missing and three hits, hitting his left shoulder, right leg, and back hip respectively.
It was precisely because the nearby enemies were targeting him that the trusted bird had the opportunity to flap its wings and climb high. After staggering, he saw someone digging his bow towards the sky and quickly took the arrow. After taking the arrow, he found that the other party had shot an arrow. He had to change his target quickly, bend his bow and chase the arrow off the string.
It was mysterious and dangerous. He himself didn't expect to intercept the arrow before it shot the Xinbird, but he really did. Xinbird took the opportunity to fly high and far away, and the enemy had no hope of shooting it.
These cattle warriors may have been ordered to strictly prohibit the bird of faith before setting off. When they saw a bird of faith leaking the net, they were all surprised. Wu Zhongyuan took the opportunity to pull out the arrow inserted in his butt and turned around and ran back.
Everyone came to their senses and shot him again. Although he ran very fast, he still ran back with two arrows on his back.
After leaping onto the city wall, I felt the pain, but the wall was full of soldiers, so I could not grit my teeth and scream. I could only grit my teeth and hold on.
"Zhongyuan, I have no eyes, I'm wrong..."
"Oh, stop talking about this, help me pull out the arrow." Wu Zhongyuan grinned his teeth and inhale.
The two pieces inserted on the back were shallow and the pain was still tolerated when pulled out, but the two pieces on the left shoulder and right leg were inserted very deeply. After pulling out, Wu Zhongyuan's teeth were trembling and his whole body was trembling.
Women are all emotional. Wu Pingsu had mistakenly blamed Wu Zhongyuan before, and felt very guilty. When he was helping him get hurt, he remembered that he did not hesitate to fly into the fire to release the bird of flying faith. He felt his eyes red, and he kept apologizing.
Wu Zhongyuan was so painful that his body was sweating and his scalp was numb. He tried his best to support him and said, "It's okay." After he recovered, he raised his hand to untie the acupoints he had previously sealed. Fengxing Technique should not be used all the time, otherwise he would lose his energy.
"What are you doing?" Wu Pingsu asked.
"Sealing acupoints and relieve pain." Wu Zhongyuan said casually. Fengxing Shui's sealing acupoints are inconsistent, and the order of sealing acupoints and resolving acupoints is not consistent. Unless he is willing to teach it, even if someone sees it, he will not be able to figure out the trick.
The war will not be suspended or stopped because someone is injured. At this time, the enemies on all sides have begun to attack the city. Although there are only more than 200 people, they are not ordinary soldiers, all red and blue warriors.
Even if the Cow Tribe is stronger than the Bear Tribe, there will be so many warriors in a single city. The opponent's invasion is likely to be the joint efforts of several cities.
At this time, there were only two warriors, Wu Pingsu and Wu Zhongyuan, on the east city wall. Seeing the enemy approaching, Wu Pingsu looked at Wu Zhongyuan anxiously.
Wu Zhongyuan frowned and looked at the enemy warriors who rushed towards him. When the opponent was arrogant, he never transformed into a beast body. There were only a dozen purple qi masters in Daqiu, and a few of them were bedridden. The strength gap between the two sides was too great, and all resistance was to be a mantis armed mantis chariot.
"What should I do?" Wu Pingsu asked anxiously.
"If you can't defend it, you can only retreat from the city wall and fight with them in the streets, and try your best to get time." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"If they were allowed to rush into the city, there would be casualties among the tribe." Wu Pingsu said.
"If we all died in battle, the casualties of our tribe members would be even greater." Wu Zhongyuan said seriously.
