Chapter 1261 Chapter : Several Times of Falling Leaves and Sprouting Branches (IV)
The sudden explosion was like bursts of thunder, shaking the setting sun.

In the street market near the city wall at the southern end of the city, Chen Shuangran suddenly lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked in the direction of the explosion. The carriage driver and even several pedestrians walking nearby stopped and looked in the direction of the sound, their eyes full of doubt.

"It's a cannon..."

"…What happened again?"

The riot in Houguan County in the morning failed, and even a group of people from the core circle were killed. Considering that the government must be torturing the prisoners intensively, Chen Shuangran responded quickly and transferred some of the people who were still in the city.

However, half a day later, the sound of artillery fire was heard again in the city, which made everyone subconsciously shudder, feeling that another group of people had been exposed.

One wrong step leads to all the wrong steps. If the government follows the clues in this way, the losses will be unpredictable. It is even hard to say whether we will be uprooted by the enemy.

"Get ready to leave town."

Fan Zhong, who was standing beside the carriage, said this.

After the accident in the morning, he had suggested leaving the city immediately, but Chen Shuangran was brave and unwilling to leave. At this moment, he must have prepared for the worst. As soon as the words fell, Tunyun, who was a little further away, had disappeared in the nearby alleys. When he reappeared, he was already on a high place near the houses. He looked far away at the place where the movement appeared. After a while, muffled sounds continued to sound.

Tunyun made a gesture of "calm down".

After a while, he came down from above, his eyes wandering, as if thinking about something.

"In the northeast, it seems like Huaiyunfang is fighting hard..."

"Huaiyunfang?" Chen Shuangran looked puzzled and exchanged glances with Fan Zhong, Chen Yan and the others, "It seems... there is no one here..."

"Huaiyunfang is close to Jinyin Bridge." Deng Nian, the driver, interjected, "It seems to be the place between four feet and five feet..."

"So fast?" Chen Shuangran looked at Chen Yan, "...Uncle Yan?"

Chen Yan shook his head: "Impossible, I haven't been notified yet..."

Everyone had agreed in the afternoon to inform the government of the news of Sun Wukong's assassination of Tie Tianying, but compared with the transfer of many people in the city, this matter was not urgent. In addition, the current situation was sensitive, so how could Chen Yan arrange it so quickly? Feeling the movement from the other side at this time, Chen Shuangran immediately asked Tunyun to confirm it again, and his mind was relieved a little.

"That means Tie Tianying recognized him..." Fan Zhong said, "That kid has a bad temper. He covered himself with a flowered cloth during the day, thinking he was hiding his identity, but his figure was too obvious, so it's not surprising that he was picked out..."

Everyone stood there, listening to the rumbling sound, and after a while, they were all slightly frightened.

"These two people don't seem to have any other followers in Huaiyunfang..."

"…Is it necessary to fire so many cannons?"

"If Tie Tianying is seriously injured, the imperial court will not have many experts to mobilize. It should be the Zuo family who is doing things to be safe... Don't forget that they also used explosives this morning..."

"Since Ning Yi in the southwest has set a bad precedent, the martial arts world is no longer a martial arts world..."

"If this was really a deliberate plan, the two of them should have been blown to death..."

"They are still young, but they have learned a lot of martial arts. This... Sigh..."

Everyone had fought fiercely in the morning and had set up a trap to kill the two puppies, but now they heard the rumbling sound in the distance, and everyone - especially the few warriors - felt a little sad, and they also put themselves in the situation. The Zuo family's puppies learned moral corruption and lack of martial ethics from the southwest. If they set up these guns and cannons and fired at them in the future, they would probably find it difficult to deal with it...

……

The setting sun is rolling.

Ning Ji ran on the flaming street.

His body seemed to be on fire and the restless blood seemed to be burning his whole body. However, he did not feel any of this at the moment. The street scenes and figures in front of him passed by in a flash. People were watching the excitement in the distance. Many people only exclaimed after he swept past like a storm. He ran to an intersection, and in order to avoid pedestrians on the road, he subconsciously turned hastily and even crashed into a tree, causing leaves to explode and fly all over the sky. He did not feel much obstruction.

Countless confusing thoughts flashed through my mind.

Not appropriate……

The Zuo family has already promised me...

Why use the cannon?

Why is there still sound?
The Zuo family agreed...

Is it the Iron Eagle?

Or swallowing clouds?

Oh, yes, swallow the cloud...

If he came to kill them, it would conflict with the Zuo family's arrangement, causing the court to use artillery...

Little bitch...

There's no need to use cannons. They can't hit Tunyun and will only hurt innocent people...

Don’t they understand…

I don't know where I ran to. The sound of artillery in the distance gradually stopped. Ning Ji climbed onto a nearby roof and continued running. He could already see part of the situation in Huaiyunfang. He saw smoke rising from the sky. Indeed, a house had been blown up...

It looks like my own room...

He ran down from the roof again.

When they got to the street near Huaiyunfang, more and more people were passing by. Some of them came to watch the fun, while others seemed to be residents running out of Huaiyunfang. Ning Ji heard a buzzing sound. He shook his head, forcibly suppressed his chaotic thoughts, and grabbed two people on the street to ask, "What's going on over there..."

The other party was also terrified, and in a panic, he seemed to be saying: "Oh... the government said... we were attacked by robbers..."

"…They are catching the bandits…"

"Did you catch him?" Ning Ji asked.

"It seems like he was killed by a cannon... So scary..."

As he got closer, he saw soldiers blocking the street at the entrance of Huaiyunfang. Ning Ji wanted to go in but was stopped by several soldiers.

"I live here! My home is inside!" Ning Ji shouted at them, "I have family members..."

"They are arresting people inside, young man, didn't you hear the artillery fire?" The officers and soldiers consoled them, "You are not allowed to enter now. The bandits are very powerful. Your family members may have escaped. Look around for them."

"That strong man...what strong man..."

"We don't know about this either. We were told not to enter—"

The soldiers' skills were crude and Ning Ji wanted to kill them several times in his mind, but he finally held back. He stretched his neck to look inside and the place where the accident happened was vaguely the circle of his own courtyard.

It would be unwise to force my way in. This might not be because the little bitch was in trouble. I must stay calm. She might have escaped and was aware of my worries, so she was hiding nearby. Or maybe... the Zuo family had promised to help, and she had been rescued. Now I had to find out where they were...

He turned around and looked around the shops and the crowd, but he didn't see Qu Longjun anywhere, nor did he see the people suspected to be arranged by the Zuo family. Instead, his behavior was obviously wrong, and several eyes were stared at him one after another, of course, including government officials.

Ning Ji didn't care. At this time, he would chop anyone who came out to pieces.

After searching for a while, Ning Ji lost his patience and wanted to find an alley to jump onto the roof to break through the blockade. At one end of his sight, a figure appeared stealthily.

"Hey, Sun, Sun... Young Master Sun..."

Ning Ji looked over there, and saw that the person who appeared on the other side of the street was Meng Piao, a henchman of Pu Xinggui. He looked surprised but also anxious. After Ning Ji came over, he said, "Young Master Sun, you... why are you still here..."

"What's still here? Why can't I be here?"

"Ah?" Meng Piao looked around a few times, "Just now... just now I heard over there that the imperial court took action this time, wasn't it to arrest you... you two young knights? Even the cannons were fired, and the fighting lasted for such a long time. I originally thought that something must have happened. I didn't expect that you, young knight Sun, were still unharmed... uh..."

Meng Piao looked Ning Ji up and down, and realized that there were no signs of fighting on his clothes. He then reacted and shrank his head: "So, the one who just fought with the court's masters was only Young Master Long? Young Master Long is really... admirable..."

Previously, when Yu Hezhang and Meng Piao had dealings with the two, they always used the four-footer with lower martial arts to attack. The five-footer Long Aotian was always gentle but arrogant. They only learned from Ning Ji that his brother's martial arts were higher, and if they provoked him to attack, they would usually die. Such rumors used to make people quibble, but after today's incident, there was real evidence.

Ning Ji's hand had already reached out to grab Meng Piao's shoulder.

"What do you mean by fighting against the imperial court? What do you mean by admiration?"

A huge pain suddenly came, Meng Piao clenched his teeth, and his body became shorter. "This, this, this... just now, the fight in the workshop was so fierce, I, I, I... I am also worried about the two young heroes, Young Master Sun... No matter what happened to Brother Long, Long, Long, we should not stay here for long, we should avoid the limelight first..."

In the already strong sunset, Meng Piao saw that the eyes of the young man in front of him seemed to turn red. The pain in his shoulder became more and more severe, and his bones were aching. He wanted to say something, but suddenly, the hand let go of his shoulder, and then the world spun, and his whole body was thrown out.

With a whoosh, something crossed the street.

Ning Ji's figure flashed like a phantom.

Meng Piao's figure flew far away, fell to the ground and rolled several times before getting up. Pedestrians were running around. The evening sky gradually became darker. Not far away, there were soldiers waving command flags from a high place. One end of the street became solemn and murderous. The young man named Sun Wukong was standing on the street. About ten feet away, a figure with half of his body stained with blood appeared in everyone's sight. He had an iron chain in his hand, and at one end of the chain was an octagonal flying hammer.

Meng Piao could vaguely recognize the other person's identity.

——Little King of Hell, Yue Yun.

Even though he didn't understand this person's identity, Meng Piao knew that he had ended up in a high-end situation that he shouldn't have been in.

He could almost imagine how the whole situation would develop.

The imperial court surrounded and killed the two young knights, Long and Sun, today, and even sent out cannons to bombard them. This little King of Hell was obviously also in the siege team. The reason why he was killed like this at this moment was probably due to the counterattack of the young knight Long. Now the life and death of the young knight Long is unknown, and it is obvious that Sun Wukong has become really angry, and he is determined to fight to the death.

Without giving it much thought, he immediately ran into the crowd, hoping that the imperial court would focus on Young Master Sun this time and not bother to arrest him.

A large number of people were running away.

The shops on the roadside closed their doors.

Meng Piao's figure disappeared in the crowd.

On the street here, the wind blew up the grass stems and pieces of paper on the road. Soldiers were gathering in the distance, and no one came forward for a while. Yue Yun held the octagonal hammer in his hand.

Ning Ji raised his hand and slapped his head with his palm, once, and then again.

Yue Yun showed a bloodthirsty smile and slowly walked closer.

"It's true... it was you who killed Master Tie today."

Ning Ji slapped his head, tilted his head and didn't look at the other person.

Speak with difficulty.

"She fought with the bandits for a long time... That's not the case. She doesn't know martial arts... There's no need to fight, no need to use cannons..."

Yue Yun looked at him, laughed, and then paused.

"I originally thought that his martial arts skills were very high, so... I attacked him for a few rounds, but... he was killed directly. It was meaningless..." Yue Yun came over and said, "But fortunately, I waited for you again."

Ning Ji's bloodshot eyes turned around empty. He opened his mouth several times.

"...Iron...Iron Skyhawk...is not dead."

"…Who told you that?"

"..."

"..."

……

The wind blowing from the sea swept across the streets.

In the sky, the blood color turned dark red like a tide.

There were flags waving in the air.

The gaze looking over was fiery.

Ning Ji thought of Qu Longjun's eyes.

In an instant, the iron chain was spinning, and the octagonal hammer was whistling into the sky, and then was pulled across the long street. Yue Yun roared "Ah--" and the activation of his internal skills created a sound like thunder. His boxing and figure were deployed, like an angry king stretching out his Dharma image to suppress everything, and he was about to blast forward with a thunderous attack.

At this moment, Ning Ji was like a rising Asura, facing the opponent's attack, and rushed forward, the two swords in his hands slashed towards Yue Yun's chest like a tide -
