Chapter 40: Death Soldiers
Lu Yi ran very fast.
The killer men in the alley are all experienced veterans.
When he saw Lu Yi soar into the air and leap more than ten feet with ease, he knew that even if he tried his best, he would not be able to catch up with Lu Yi.
No one's attack on Lu Yi was in vain. They had expressionless faces and formed a strange killing formation, joining forces to kill Xiong Dingtian.
Poor Xiong Dingtian, he has mastered Kung Fu to perfection and is very powerful.
But since he has been practicing martial arts, he has a natural weakness here.
He couldn't jump very high, at most he could jump five or six feet high.
He can't run very fast, at most one or two times faster than an ordinary person.
Although these killers were not as agile as Lu Yi, any one of them could jump higher and run faster than him.
A group of people surrounded Xiong Dingtian, and all kinds of vicious moves were like a storm, but they enveloped Xiong Dingtian without any sound.
A large number of poisoned hidden weapons were thrown at Xiong Dingtian.
With muscles bulging all over his body, Xiong Dingtian waved his arms, and large numbers of flying knives, flying needles, thorns, iron sand, gold coin darts and other objects flew everywhere.
He exhaled and started shouting, and was about to punch a man who came up to him and stabbed him seven or eight times in the lower abdomen, when a fist-sized paper bag suddenly flew out from the crowd and hit him in the face.
Xiong Dingtian subconsciously slapped the paper bag, and it exploded with a "puff". Large pieces of lime splashed and sprayed towards his face.
Xiong Dingtian let out a strange cry, quickly covered his face with his hands, and took big steps back.
No matter how high one's kung fu is, there are always some parts of the human body that are extremely difficult to practice. The eyes are such a fatal weakness. With Xiong Dingtian's strength, ordinary people's fists cannot hurt his eyes, but they cannot stop the poisonous lime either.
Just after taking two steps back, Xiong Dingtian's belt suddenly loosened.
These killers were extremely ruthless and had almost no bottom line. He retreated with his hands protecting his face. Two killers rushed to him and stabbed him seven or eight times on both sides of his waist with daggers. Finding that they could not pierce his skin at all, they simply cut his belt with two swords.
Xiong Dingtian was so big and strong that his belt broke and his big bloomers slipped down in an instant.
As the owner of the Xiong's Martial Arts School, Xiong Dingtian is undoubtedly a man of honor.
He let out a strange cry, and instinctively reached out his hand to grab his pants that were sliding down. Before he could pull up his pants, he heard a few "chi chi" sounds, and the big waistband of his big bloomers was chopped to pieces by the two killers' swords.
There was another strange cry, and Xiong Dingtian suddenly put his legs together and blocked his body with his hands in a panic.
On the ground, four killers like round fat balls came flying over. They moved their hands and feet together, and wrapped around the legs of Xiong Dingtian, whose steps were unsteady, like cowhide ropes. They gently twisted and pulled him, and Xiong Dingtian roared and fell to the ground with his legs spread out.
Before Xiong Dingtian could struggle to get up, a group of killers pounced on him.
Someone kept throwing lime on his face.
Someone took a steel needle more than a foot long and poked it into his ear hole.
Some people even picked up a delicate mattock and started to hit his little head which was accidentally exposed when he waved his hands.
With a "hissing" sound, dozens of thin black steel wires suddenly wrapped around Xiong Dingtian's neck, elbows, wrists, ankles, and knees, and even crisscrossed his little head in the wires.
Seven or eight killers put all their strength into it, pulling the wire into the air, and then they stood on the walls on both sides of the alley and pulled it hard.
With a creaking sound, the bear's nine-foot-tall body was forcibly pulled off the ground and hung in the air like a bug in a spider web.
The remaining killers used all their methods and launched various vicious moves at Xiong Dingtian.
Xiong Dingtian closed his mouth and eyes, and his ears flickered like pig ears, then suddenly closed, blocking the ear canal tightly.
Lime sprinkled on the face.
The steel needle pierced the ear violently.
The mattock hit the object with a bang.
Daggers, short swords, poisoned steel needles, iron spikes and other objects were stabbing all over his body.
There were even people squatting under Xiong Dingtian's body, holding weapons, and poking at his "humiliating" and "unspeakable" parts.
Xiong Dingtian's muscles bulged all over his body and his blood vessels were throbbing and twisting as he struggled to resist the brutal and shameless beating from these killers.
That is to say, his martial arts skills had really reached an extremely high level, and even the most vulnerable and fatal parts of an ordinary man had been tempered to be as hard as steel. About thirty killers surrounded him and fiddled with him, but in seven or eight breaths they were unable to hurt him at all.
A cold and ruthless voice sounded: "Pour oil and burn it!"
Xiong Dingtian's body suddenly stiffened, and soybean-sized amounts of cold sweat oozed out of every pore on his body.
He is now indeed as strong as steel and invulnerable to swords and guns, but he is still a mortal, not a god. If you throw him into the water, he will drown; if you bury him alive in the ground, he will suffocate; if you burn him with fire, he will also be burned to death.
A loud roar sounded from my chest.
Xiong Dingtian's muscles swelled up due to the killers' weird and despicable methods. His limbs suddenly retracted inward. The seven or eight killers standing on the courtyard wall who were frantically pulling the steel wire lost their balance and fell over the wall.
A loud roar was heard, and blood spurted out of the ears of several killers closest to Xiong Dingtian at the same time. Their eardrums were shattered and their brains were injured by his roar.
Xiong Dingtian fell to the ground, and he didn't care about the problem of his big baggy pants and shorts. He stood firmly on the ground with his legs. "Whoosh whoosh" accompanied by a dull sound of breaking wind, his legs were like battering rams, kicking out more than ten times in a row in the surroundings.
The killers surrounding Xiong Dingtian dodged one after another, except for those whose brains were injured by the roar. They were unable to dodge and were kicked away by Xiong Dingtian.
There were continuous sounds of broken bones, and several killers flew up and slammed into the walls on both sides of the alley.
The courtyard wall collapsed, and several killers turned into a mess of flesh and blood, crashing through the wall and flying inside.
Xiong Dingtian still had his eyes closed, waving his hands around and hitting around.
His movements were swift, and his fists created strong winds and continuous thunderous sounds.
The group of killers were forced to stay away from Xiong Dingtian. They could only run around Xiong Dingtian like a group of ferocious hyenas surrounding a mad buffalo, ready to take advantage of the opportunity and give Xiong Dingtian a fatal blow.
However, there were also traces of anxious emotions on the cold faces of these killers.
They have already wasted a lot of time on Xiong Dingtian.
Lu Yi had been on the run for a while.
They couldn't deal with Xiong Dingtian for the time being.
Their retreat route was carefully calculated and designed. If nothing unexpected happened, they should have already hidden in a safe hiding place by now, enough to avoid the subsequent large-scale raid by the Dayin officials.
However, with the accident involving Xiong Dingtian and Lu Yi, the hiding place prepared by their team in advance was obviously unusable.
"We will surely die today. Take him with us." The cold voice that had just given the order to the assassins burn Xiong Dingtian to death with kerosene sounded again: "Take the Blood Burning Pill and perish together with this fellow."
The killers' attacks suddenly came to a halt.
They all took two steps back, opened their mouths, and bit off their collars.
The collars were torn to shreds with one bite, and the killers simultaneously swallowed a pill that was deep red in color with traces of black flame patterns on the surface, which looked extremely evil.
After a breath, these killers simultaneously made a 'mooing' sound like injured bison.
Their skin turned red, their eyes became bloodshot and bulged, blood vessels bulged strangely under their skin, and the sound of blood flowing became clearly audible.
Their heartbeats suddenly increased several times, and their originally cold and even lifeless eyes suddenly became extremely crazy.
More than a dozen fist-sized porcelain bottles were thrown out by the killers.
Xiong Dingtian swung his fist and smashed all the porcelain bottles thrown at him.
The porcelain bottle shattered, and the shiny kerosene spilled all over Xiong Dingtian's arms. The kerosene contained white phosphorus and other flammable materials. Once it came into contact with the air and the friction of the porcelain bottle fragments, the phosphorous fire burned on Xiong Dingtian's arms with a whoosh.
Xiong Dingtian groaned and cried out in pain.
He was not afraid of being hacked by swords and guns, but the raging fire made him feel indescribable pain.
However, with his martial arts training reaching this level, his skin and flesh were much more resistant to fire than that of ordinary people. Although it hurt, he still gritted his teeth, punched desperately, and slammed his head into the courtyard wall on Xiaoxiang's side.
Behind the courtyard wall was the courtyard where Xiong Dingtian had just hidden, preparing to ambush Lu Yi.
The lights in the courtyard were dim. Xiong Dingtian roared and broke through the wall. He waved his two burning arms and rushed desperately towards the gate in front.
After rushing out of the gate, there is a street. At this moment, the street outside is densely populated with countless imperial guards, yamen runners, military marquises, and palace guards. As long as he can rush through the courtyard and rush out of the gate, these killers will be dead, and he will be completely safe.
After taking the so-called blood-burning pill, the killers became crazy and pounced forward.
Their original physical strength was much faster than Xiong Dingtian's. After taking the Blood Burning Pill, they became as fast as ghosts. Moreover, they became extremely powerful and fearless of death.
They jumped over to Xiong Dingtian, grabbed him with all their might, and threw him to the ground.
Punches, knee strikes, teeth tearing, and all kinds of weapons slashing and piercing wildly.
The fist smashed into pieces.
My knee was banged to pieces.
The teeth were shattered by the recoil force.
Various weapons were also twisted and broken when they hit Xiong Dingtian's body.
Xiong Dingtian screamed in pain and shouted towards the gate of the courtyard: "Someone come, there is an assassin, there is an assassin here!"
Lu Yi, who had just flown out, ran back at this moment.
He had just pretended to flee far away in front of these killers, but in fact he just waited for a while a few hundred feet away and then rushed back the same way.
Seeing those mindless killers attacking Xiong Dingtian madly, Lu Yi took out a bullet from his belt and shot it into the sky.
"Bang!"
A ball of blood-red fire exploded in the air.
There was a loud noise coming from all directions, and one could see the masters of the Palace Guard rising into the air and running towards this side at a rapid speed, stepping on the roof.
The sound of a large group of imperial guards galloping quickly could also be heard on the surrounding streets.
