The court lackeys of the eight-hour workday

Chapter 80 Arrive
When the three sect leaders entered the city gate, they discovered that the situation in the city was even more tragic than that in Taishan Sect.

The people in Taishan Sect were either martial artists, soldiers, eunuchs, or imperial guards. Facing the sudden attack of Taishan Sect disciples, they could resist to some extent.

But the people in Tai'an City do not have this ability.

The people are very cautious all day long, and perhaps the biggest conflict in their lives is getting red in the face with someone, swearing at them, and fighting until the corners of their mouths bleed.

Faced with neighbors and relatives who suddenly went crazy, even the people who were not poisoned were thrown to the ground and wailed from being bitten.

At that time, most houses were made of wood. First, a lamp was knocked over in a house, igniting clothes, and then a huge fire spread violently, burning all the way to the street.

The heat wave was overwhelming and the ground was filled with a foul stench.

Blood was splattered everywhere and there was wailing everywhere.

This was the tragic scene that the three sect leaders faced when they entered the city gate.

The three of them had witnessed countless life and death situations, and although it was their first time facing such a big scene, they were still able to remain more or less calm.

Among the disciples of the three sects, those who had never seen blood could not help vomiting for a moment.

This vomiting made the faces of other disciples turn pale as well.

Deng Baixuan sneered and turned to look at the disciples inside the sect: "What's wrong? Where is the heroic spirit you had just outside the sect? You're gone now!"

"If you can't bear it, don't be a burden! Get out of here and wait for me to come back!"

After saying that, without waiting for the disciples to reply, he pointed his hand at a few people and said, "You, you, you! Get out!"

One of them, whose expression remained unchanged, was also called out and was about to open his mouth to argue.

An older man nearby covered his mouth, pressed acupoints on him, and threw him out of the city gate.

Zhou Yingxue snorted coldly and said nothing.

She and Zhang Jingfeng could see clearly what Deng Baixuan was thinking.

The three of them made the decision to enter the city after careful consideration and after being fully aware of the risks involved.

They made this choice only after they knew why they were doing this and what the price would be. They were also prepared to die here.

They can bear the consequences of their choices.

But the disciples were just carried away by their passion for the moment.

Deng Baixuan wanted to leave a few seeds of inheritance for the sect, but if he directly selected people from outside, it would be obvious that he would let a few people live in disgrace, which would leave a flaw in their state of mind and would be detrimental to their future progress in martial arts.

It will also sow the seeds of jealousy in other disciples, making them feel favored.

Therefore, he waited until everyone entered the door before sending out a few talented disciples on the grounds that they were "useless".

In this way, at least they have proved that they are not cowards, and they had to withdraw from the city gate because of Deng Boxuan's order. Other disciples will not feel resentful because of this, but will feel that they are the "useful" ones.

Although this was a bit cruel, Deng Baixuan couldn't care less at this point.

The older disciple also saw what was happening, so he covered the disciple's mouth and pressed acupoints to send him out.

Zhang Jingfeng stepped forward and patted Deng Baixuan on the shoulder. Instead of pointing out the problem, he followed the same method and called out the names of several disciples and sent them out of the city.

Zhou Yingxue snorted coldly and followed suit.

Only when the city gate slowly closed in front of them did Deng Baixuan let out a long sigh of relief.

"Let's go, everyone." Zhang Jingfeng said.

"I heard a noise in the city, one place was particularly loud, and it looked like it was coming from the provincial government office."

"The affairs of this city will most likely be settled there."

After saying that, he used his Qinggong skills and left first.

Deng Baixuan looked at the city gate deeply, said nothing, and followed closely with the rest of the people.

Back at the provincial government, Wang Hai and others were already stretched to the limit.

During this period, Mingjiao disciples had broken through the defense line several times and entered the ten-foot range around Xiao Si.

Among the four people present, only Wang Hai, Liu Baiyun, Mei Qinghe and Gao Ling are first-rate, and only these four can break through the physical body of the Mingjiao Gu soldiers at once.

However, in Wang Hai's opinion, Liu Baiyun and Gao Ling, who had the highest martial arts skills, and Mei Qinghe, were all a little too soft-hearted.

They always have to identify again and again until they are absolutely sure that it is a Gu soldier before they kill it.

In a fight between life and death, the worst thing to do is to hesitate, so the one who takes the lead here is the young man Wang Hai.

Wang Hai crouched down and reached out his hand, reaching under the crotch of the person in front of him, and then suddenly turned the blade!
"what!!!!!"

Even with the fearless spirit of the Gu soldiers, they could not help but cry out in pain and kneel down on the ground. Wang Hai took this opportunity to reach out and scratch the man's face, digging out his eyeballs, and then kicked him into the crowd. Letting him scratch and bump around in the crowd somewhat slowed down the speed of the crowd's influx.

There are only a few Huashan disciples left.

In a fight between the martial arts world, being lenient is a taboo. In a fight between life and death, the first move is to make a clear distinction.

They didn't want to kill anyone, nor did they want to leave anyone disabled, and they also wanted to test who could be killed and who could not. With this mentality, the Huashan Sect's disciples were often caught off guard and knocked down, then poisoned.

The people in the backyard were already piled up one layer after another, and the few people in the front yard were barely holding on, and they didn't know when they would fall into danger.

The first person to fall into danger was Mei Qinghe.

Among the four, she has the lowest cultivation level and the thinnest true energy, and she is not as ruthless as Wang Hai, so her true energy has gradually run out.

But as if things didn't get worse, just as she swept her sword across the crowd in front of her, it actually bounced off two people.

Two Gu soldiers came to her side!

And behind her was Xiao Si, with no obstruction in between.

With no way to retreat, Mei Qinghe suddenly turned his head to take a look, then clenched the sword in his hand.

Then he held the sword across his chest and gathered the remaining energy.

Snow splashes on the eaves!

This was a sword technique that moved from bottom to top, disrupting the lower bodies of the two Gu soldiers and sending them flying off the ground.

Sword roars in the cold river!

Mei Qinghe rushed forward, stabbed a Gu soldier in the chest with a sword, and slapped another Gu soldier with his other hand.

The long sword pierced through the chest, but with Mei Qinghe's true energy and strength, he couldn't do that.

So she pressed her whole body forward.

With two Gu soldiers, he fell into the crowd.

In mid-air, the Gu soldier who was slapped bit Mei Qinghe's arm, held on tightly, and kept biting it, with blood splattering everywhere.

"Qinghe!" Liu Baiyun cried out in pain and was about to draw his sword to save her.

"Oh my god!" Wang Hai shouted, hooking the blades with both hands and tearing a bloody rain in the crowd.

With the four of them, the current situation can barely hold up. There is no time for Liu Baiyun to test it. Only Wang Hai can do this and be ruthless.

Mei Qinghe made this choice because his true energy was exhausted and with Xiao Si behind him, he had no place to retreat.

But without Mei Qinghe, it would be really difficult to sustain now.

Wang Hai continued to fight in the crowd and finally reached Mei Qinghe.

At this time, Mei Qinghe was already in a critical condition. A large piece of flesh and blood was torn off his left arm that was blocking in front of him. He waved the long sword in his right hand and barely forced back the surrounding crowd.

Wang Hai stepped forward, Mei Qinghe understood, and held the sword horizontally at his side. Wang Hai gathered his true energy and kicked the sword with all his strength.

Mei Qinghe slid across the ground and came to Xiao Si.

Xiao Si quickly put the wound on his hand in front of Mei Qinghe. After a while, a poisonous insect crawled out of Mei Qinghe's mouth and nose, and died after being touched by Xiao Si's blood.

Wang Hai struggled to break out of the crowd and looked around.

"I can't hold on any longer," he thought.

With a sudden thought, he turned around and ran away with Xiao Si.

The two of them understood each other's minds. Xiao Si looked at Wang Hai and shook his head gently.

Just when Wang Hai was ready to take Xiao Si and escape at all costs.

Several people rushed in from outside the courtyard wall, looked around, and directly took over the defense line of Wang Hai and Mei Qinghe.

"Master Liu, how can we let your Huashan Sect have all the glory! My Hengshan Sect has come to join in the fun!" Zhang Jingfeng shouted, waving the sword in his hand, and flashed directly to Wang Hai's side, filling Mei Qinghe's position.

Zhou Yingxue rushed to the side of Liu Baiyun, waving the long sword in her hand and snorting coldly: "Why, Master Liu, where is your prestige in Taishan Sect?"

Deng Baixuan smiled bitterly, without hesitation, and immediately joined the battle.

Dozens of disciples also drew their swords.

It was the troops from Hengshan, Hengshan and Songshan who finally arrived!
