Chapter 29 The Killer
After Guo Jing and his friends left, Yin Zhiping returned to the formation and continued to wait. What he had been waiting for before was Guo Jing and Yang Guo, but what he was waiting for now was Huo Du waiting for the enemy.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, a disciple in the formation was turning back to the Chongyang Palace when he suddenly saw a fire flashing in the backyard of Chongyang Palace, reflecting the dark sky red. He was shocked and shouted: "No, Chongyang Palace has caught fire!"
Hearing the disciple's shouting, everyone in the formation turned around and looked back. When they saw that there was indeed a fire in the Chongyang Palace, they were shocked and shouted in abruptly.
Yin Zhiping naturally turned around and looked back. He saw that the fire had indeed caught in the Chongyang Palace. He knew that this was a signal that the enemy was going to attack. He saw that most of the roads in the formation were panicked, and some shouted what to do, and they wanted to go back to put out the fire immediately, and they were in a panic.
"Don't panic, everyone!" Yin Zhiping shouted internally, immediately suppressing the panic screams of everyone, and all looked at him. Only then did he remember that he was the main formation and he watched him wait for him to make a decision.
Yin Zhiping said: "This is the thief's strategy to set fire to disturb the enemy. We want us to get rid of the situation and take advantage of the situation. The head sect and several real people had a solution to deal with it. A few days ago, they asked everyone to store more water in order to prevent the thief. We must not let the thief succeed. Everyone should keep their own position. The palace will respond without worrying."
After hearing Yin Zhiping's explanation, the Taoists remembered that the head sect had indeed ordered the disciples to store more water a few days ago. It turned out that they were prepared for a long time, so they couldn't help but feel relieved and stopped rioting. Some disciples praised: "The head sect and several real people have made great plans. It turns out that they had expected that the thief would have this trick, so we don't need to worry."
The disciples followed each other in a word and agreed, looking to Chongyang Palace, but in this moment, the fire in Chongyang Palace had gradually decreased, and several fires that had risen were extinguished. Everyone knew that it was the defense in the palace that played a role, so they felt more relieved and kept their true colors.
Seeing that the fire was gradually being extinguished, Yin Zhiping breathed a sigh of relief, turned his eyes back and looked at the Tao, and said, "Everyone, if the enemy attacks from here later, everyone must not be merciful and will fight hard to kill the enemy. Although the master sect always teaches us to be kind and kind when we walk in the world, and forgive others when we have to forgive others, even the evil people should give him the opportunity to correct their mistakes; but today the people who came to attack my Quanzhen sect are all evil figures in the world, all of whom are cruel and ruthless. Such evil people do not have to be merciless and ruthless. You should know that eliminating evil is doing good. You will not kill these evil people today, but you don't know how many evil things they will do in the future?"
"Besides, the Chongyang Palace is the foundation of my sect. These people are provoking me to the Chongyang Palace today. If they do not defeat them heavily and spread them to the world, wouldn't people in the world say that I am Quanzhen Cult can be bullied? In this way, it will greatly damage the reputation of my sect. If everyone walks around the world in the future and is mentioned by others, they will not be able to raise their heads. Therefore, it is related to the reputation of my sect, so everyone should not take it lightly. If the enemy really attacks from here later, everyone will kill me."
Since the Taoists are disciples of Quanzhen Sect, if the reputation of Quanzhen Sect is damaged, they will be blind. Thinking of this, the Taoists can't help but feel a sense of hatred against the enemy. They glanced at each other and shouted in a deep voice: "Yes!"
The Taoists shouted in unison, and couldn't help but bring some murderous aura. Yin Zhiping nodded with satisfaction, turned around and faced the mountain road. The fire in the Chongyang Palace had been extinguished, and the Taoists also turned around, with a deep face, holding the hilt of the sword tightly, wishing that the enemy would come now.
This time, after a while, suddenly, there were shouts of killing sounds in the mountains from all directions. I don’t know how many enemies attacked each other. But here they were a shadow of an enemy who could not see it.
"Everyone keep calm and keep their own positions. Don't mess up." Yin Zhiping gave another loud reminder, then pulled out the sword in his hand with a "choke".
"Yes." The crowd responded again, followed by the continuous "clang" sound, and they all drew out the long sword. The sword light shone under the moonlight, emitting a cold air.
Not long after Yin Zhiping drew his sword, several black shadows suddenly fell from the cliffs on both sides of the mountain road entrance. It was still in the air, and everyone shook their hands and swung out a large tent of hidden weapons. There were different hidden weapons, including darts, flying knives, mourning door nails, caltrops, and tiny needle-like hidden weapons.
"Three talents change, the peacock spreads its tail."
After Yin Zhiping shouted loudly, he shook the long sword in his hand, and swung a sword curtain in front of him to protect his body.
The "Three Talent Changes" he called was the change of the Beidou formation, and "Peacock Spreading" was the name of a move in Quanzhen Sword Technique. There are several changes in this "Peacock Spreading" and can be used as an attack move and a change can be used as a defensive posture. During attack, the sword swept across a fan, and the sword was on the chest, and it also spread a fan to protect the whole body. He was afraid that some disciples would be suddenly attacked by hidden weapons, so he could not react in a hurry, so after calling for the change of the formation, he called out this move to remind them to use this move to defend.
After hearing Yin Zhiping's reminder, everyone did not think about it. Subconsciously, they used the peacock to spread their tails to protect their bodies. At the same time, they quickly gathered towards Yin Zhiping, taking Yin Zhiping as the current point, and quickly gathered into a triangle.
The so-called three-talent change is to form such a triangle. This is a change that the enemy will deal with when attacking with hidden weapons and arrows. After becoming a triangle, most people are blocked in the middle of the formation, and only the people on the main array at the vertex and the people on the two edges are exposed. In addition to the people on the vertex, the edges are blocked by the people in front, and only half of the body is exposed, which will minimize the area and number of people being attacked. Usually, those with weak martial arts are surrounded in the middle of the formation, while those with high martial arts are defending on the vertex and edges.
Yin Zhiping led everyone to practice the formation over the days, practicing all the changes very well. Once he shouted out, the formation had been transformed in just a moment. Then, he heard the "ding ding dangdang" sound, and all the hidden weapons that the enemy called were blocked and swept down. After a round of hidden weapons, no one in the formation was injured.
Yin Zhiping blocked the hidden weapons in front of him and shouted: "It's impolite to come but not go. Everyone with hidden weapons will also greet me."
Everyone shouted and responded, and in an instant, all kinds of hidden weapons were shot back.
Although Quanzhen Sect is a famous sect, it also practices hidden weapons. The hidden weapons are not only used for sneak attacks in secret, but sometimes they also need to be used in emergency situations. For example, when you escape, you can slightly block the enemy from chasing them before leaving. When you encounter a lot of people, casting the hidden weapons can also slightly increase the advantage of being alone. Therefore, Quanzhen Sect does not prohibit disciples from using hidden weapons, but it is strictly forbidden to decontaminate hidden weapons. However, usually, Quanzhen disciples do not easily use hidden weapons. Otherwise, people say that you win with hidden weapons, and it is not nice to spread, and there is always a suspicion of winning without fighting.
But Yin Zhiping had just told the people to kill the enemy that was attacking, and he was also a member of the main formation, so when he gave the order, everyone didn't think much about it, and then he followed the order.
