This group of people, no less than a thousand, came from three directions and finally converged.

The fire in Nancheng did not affect this area.

The eminent monks of White Horse Temple are very dedicated. After all, this business is related to whether they can continue to be popular in the future, so they work very hard.

Soon, Shang Wu hurried over with his people.

The captain of the imperial army who was guarding the land and water ceremony came forward and said, "Who is the leader? Tell me your name!"

The leader, Shang Wu, said loudly: "Don't be afraid, there is a fire in Nancheng, the general asked us to protect the masters!"

"Which guard are you from?"

"we are......"

brush!

Shang Wu quickly drew out the sword he carried with him and beheaded the captain of the imperial army in front of him with one blow.

"Ah, what are you doing!"

"No, it's a thief!"

The rest of the Forbidden Army reacted and hurriedly shouted at the city gate, "Enemy attack!"

However, the Water and Land Dharma Assembly is a hundred feet away from Chengtian Gate, and the calls for help merge with the sounds of the monks knocking on wooden fish and chanting sutras, making it difficult to distinguish.

Even if there is an enemy invasion, the Chengtianmen defenders will not open the city gate.

Shang Wu was also sure of this.

He first asked people to use strong fire oil to light a fire and attract all the forbidden troops.

Then he wore the armor of the Forbidden Army and pretended to be a Forbidden Army patrolling the city. This way, it would be safer to escape.

"Quick victory!"

Shang Wu roared, and the people behind him drew out their knives and killed the general.

Someone was running towards Chengtianmen.

Shang Wu took out his crossbow and drew it to the full moon.

Whoosh!

The arrow pierced the sky and plunged straight into the back of the man's heart.

Plop.

The Imperial Guard fell to the ground.

The master of White Horse Temple was also frightened.

They wanted to escape, but what greeted them was ruthless killing.

There are no more than a hundred Imperial Guards guarding here, and they cannot withstand their attack.

Not to mention these defenseless monks.

Xi'er was covered in blood and leaned behind Shang Wu, "Do you feel that things are going too smoothly?"

Shang Wu took a deep breath, "What a success, if it hadn't been for the Nancheng fire, we would have been surrounded by now.

Come on, let’s go to the stage and rescue the princess!”

Shang Wu looked at the altar where the Buddha statues were placed, and there was a woman without limbs lying on her back. This person must be a princess.

Just now, when they came to attack, the executioner was planning to kill him. If they were even a moment late, there would be no hope.

The two of them ran towards the Dharma altar quickly. The lotus lanterns on the ground were so densely packed that it was difficult to get down.

Every time one is knocked over, there is a possibility of catching fire.

At this time, the sound of drumming came from outside Chengtian Gate.

"Dong dong dong!"

"Quick, save people, run away!"

The crowd suddenly became panicked.

When the sound of drums is heard, the Imperial Guards who are putting out the fire will definitely come back to help.

Shang Wu jumped onto the altar and pulled the woman up.

The next second, Shang Wu looked at the bearded man and was stunned, "Oops, I was fooled!"

Xi'er exclaimed: "This person is a fake princess, we were fooled!"

Shang Wu suddenly panicked and jumped off the altar, "Quick, disperse and run away!"

Everyone was already panicking.

Last year, when they were hunting in the suburbs, they already lost a lot of manpower.

Then, there was a general cleaning in the palace, and almost all their chess pieces in the palace were cleaned up.

They turned to the White Lotus Sect and took root in the northwest, but encountered six more doors.

Li Cungong stayed there for half a year and killed them until they had no way to escape.

If they were also damaged here, it would never happen again.

The people were divided into three groups and headed towards three places.

However, the road has been cut off.

Tap tap tap!

Neat steps sounded, and the clash of armor made the sound of gold and iron.

No one said anything, but it was creepy.

The shield glowed coldly in the moonlight, and the spear reached into the sky, its sharp blade flashing with cold light.

The people who fled divided into three groups and got together again.

All escape routes have been blocked.

"I told you a long time ago that this is a ruse and you can't come!"

"It's over, it's completely over!"

"Drop your weapons and surrender, there's no chance!"

The three-pronged army numbered no less than ten thousand people.

They are all well-armed, so what do they use to fight?

"surrender......"

The word 'ba' was still in the man's mouth, and his head left home. Shang Wu clutched the bleeding sword, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes, "Whoever dares to say surrender again will be killed without mercy!"

Everyone was as quiet as a cicada.

"Do you think Li Qian's thieves will spare us? No, find a way to fight your way out, how many can survive!" Shang Wu roared: "Follow me!"

He rushed over first, Xi'er followed closely behind, but what they faced was the flying feathers that covered the sky and the sun!

Whoosh whoosh!

Three rounds of arrows.

There is no one standing on the ground anymore.

Shang Wu's limbs were stabbed through and nailed to the ground. Xi'er was behind him, an arrow penetrated her neck, and there were four or five arrows stuck in her head, like a hedgehog.

"Xi'er, Xi'er!"

He crawled over with difficulty, and an arrow drilled into her big eye and out of the back of her head.

Xi'er is dead, very dead.

Others fell to the ground and howled.

The army stopped in front of them, their shields parted.

People from the six doors ran out from inside.

Xu Que said: "Don't kill the ones who are alive, but take more stabs on those who are not dead!"

He added in his mind, "If the knife is stained with blood, it will be considered a meritorious service!"

A quarter of an hour later, the battlefield was cleared, with only one tenth of the survivors alive, and basins of water washed away the blood on the ground.

The Water and Land Dharma Assembly is still burning with fire.

But if they looked up, they could see a huge Kongming Lantern more than thirty feet above the ground.

It was tied up with a thick rope to prevent it from flying away.

A woman is placed in a hanging basket.

Above her head was a blazing fire.
