Chapter 15 Small Town in Distress

Dandong is a marginal town in the Liaodong area, across the river from North Korea. People in the town often use the slack season to pick hazel mushrooms, wild fungus, Ganoderma lucidum and other mountain goods in the nearby mountains, and then dry them at home and sell them at the market in the town to supplement their home use. Hunters in nearby villages outside the town also brought the skins of wild animals such as tigers, leopards, and martens to the town for sale. Therefore, although the town is in a remote area, there are many foreign merchants, and most of them come here for a wide range of mountain goods and fur goods.

When the small team members walked into the street in Dandong, located in the middle of the town, it was already dark. The streets of the town were much deserted than during the day.

Several people came to an inn called Yelaixiang. The inn is located on the east side of the street and is a two-story wooden structure. Standing at the entrance of the inn, looking up, two long red lanterns hanging on two large wooden stakes in front of the door, adding a lot of vitality to the town at night. On both sides of the gate are a couplet: "The corners of the earth and the ends of the world, and the guests are from all over the world." The horizontal banner is "Congratulations on making a fortune."

In fact, many buildings in the town are made of wooden structures. The rich wood on the nearby mountains is the main source of materials used by residents in the town to build houses and courtyards. It is said that relying on the mountains to eat the mountains.

The reason why Luo Shiyin chose Ye Laixiang inn is because its location is closest to Yalu River among all the inns in this town. This will make it easier to travel tomorrow morning.

"Several guests, welcome to Ye Laixiang. Come and invite me inside!" A short waiter saw the members of the team coming to the entrance of the inn and quickly came out.

There are about a dozen square tables in the inn hall, most of which are filled with merchants from all over the country. The smoky air is filled with shouts of striking and whistling. Several waiters who run the hall are shuttled back and forth between the guests, and are very busy. The northwest corner of the hall is a wooden staircase leading to the second floor. The entire second floor is a circle of rooms distributed in an oval circular shape.

Luo Shiyin chose a square table against the wall at the northeast corner of the hall. Several people sat down one by one. The square table was in a relatively secluded position. Sitting in this place not only allowed you to see the entire hall, but also did not easily attract others' attention.

The food served by the waiter was also rich, and the table was filled with delicacies and wild mushrooms.

Luo Shiyin instructed everyone: Even if you eat food, you are not allowed to drink alcohol! Based on years of experience in the martial arts world, Luo Shiyin vaguely felt that something unexpected might happen tonight. As for why he had such a premonition, he couldn't explain it clearly. Maybe this is the so-called subconscious effect.

After dinner, everyone is ready to go upstairs to rest.

"Tiaotiao, are you going to protect Sister Rose?" Bawu said to Tiaotiao beside him. He wanted to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere, but he didn't expect that Tiaotiao really walked to Ye Ruliu and snuggled beside her.

"You guy who forgets your friends when you see sex!" Bawu scolded and pouted childishly, looking very angry.

Ye Ruliu was amused and giggled. He looked at Tiaotiao's silly look and reached out to touch Tiaotiao's back.

There are three rooms registered. According to Luo Shiyin's arrangement, Ye Ruliu and Tiaotiao were in the middle, and one room on the east side was lived by him and Shi Lang, while the other four people lived in a larger room on the west side.

After busy all day, Ye Ruliu felt a little tired. She washed her clothes and lie on the bed and sleeped with her clothes. Anyway, with the guardian saint Tiao Tiao, she could sleep for a while.

Tiao Tiao squatted on the wooden floor of the room and closed his eyes lightly, while his sensitive ears were listening alertly to the movements around him.

The night in the town is quiet. The screams of wild wolves come from time to time in the depths of the surrounding mountains.

In the middle of the night, Ye Ruliu, who was sleeping, was awakened by the sound of Juezhao. She opened her eyes and found Juezhao staring at the window in horror, and her mouth kept making "hissing" screams. Ye Ruliu sat up from the bed with a "swish" look, then put on her boots and walked gently to the window. She patted Juezhao's head with her hand, indicating that it would not make a sound. Juezhao immediately calmed down.

Ye Ruliu gently pulled the window a gap and looked out. Under the faint moonlight, a group of people in tight night clothes were secretly stacking firewood under the wall of the inn, and splashing liquid that might be oily on the firewood.

"Not good!" Ye Ruliu felt a stern in her heart. She was about to break out of the window with her weapon, but a flame soared into the sky outside the window. The entire inn was immediately surrounded by the sea of ​​fire.

Ye Ruliu rushed out of the door quickly with Tiaotiao. Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang, Du Heng and others also broke out and stood in the corridor outside the door.

"It's bad, it's on fire. Run away quickly!" The guests in the guest room were also awakened by the fire, and escaped from the room, crowded up the stairs and headed towards the first floor.

Luo Shiyin immediately ordered: Shi Lang, Shi Tianji, Ye Ruliu and him jumped out of the window on the second floor to deal with the enemies outside, and the rest stayed and found a way to organize everyone in the building to rush out.

Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang, Shi Tianji, Ye Ruliu and the other four first observed the terrain outside the window, then broke through the window, crossed the flames in the air and fell steadily on the flat ground outside the flames. As soon as the four of them stood firm, they saw a large net covering their heads. If they wanted to cover this net, the four people could only surrender, because once this thing was wrapped around them, it would bind people's hands and feet, and no matter how powerful martial arts were, it would be difficult to use.

At this critical moment, Luo Shiyin stepped forward and showed his unique skill that he could not show off easily - to subdue the clutches of demons in the wind ten ways.

Among the four people, Shi Tianji used a double mace. Shi Lang used the standard weapon of Jinyiwei's Embroidered Spring Knife, and Ye Ruliu held the deathly rose thorn in his hand. Only Luo Shixian did not have any weapons. I am afraid that Shi Lang knew the reason why Luo Shixian did not use any weapons. Shi Lang judged based on his personal experience of following Luo Shixian for many years. There are two reasons: First, Shi Lang felt that the commander did not seem to be interested in any weapon; second, for any opponent, when facing Luo Shixian, it seems that no one could win under his ten-way wind-subduing devil clutches.

Shi Lang had seen the huge power of Luo Shiyin's ten-way set of devil clutches in the wind once five years ago. That time, Shi Lang followed Luo Shiyin and was ordered to Wenzhou to arrest Duan Wang who colluded with Japanese pirates. At that time, Luo Shiyin mobilized the army of the government to surround Duan Wang's Mansion. When a large number of Jinyiwei rushed into Duan Wang's Mansion, he was fought against several scumbags raised by Duan Wang. Shi Lang and several generals of the official army fought hard against Gao Xiaotian, "Dalien Eagle King" Gao Xiaotian, "Iron Pill Monk Demon" Lu Buzhou and other experts in the martial arts world. After more than a hundred rounds of competition, Shi Lang and others gradually could not resist. Gao Xiaotian, the "Dalien Eagle King" seized the opportunity and came straight to Shi Lang with a move "Gahawk Catching Rabbit". The speed was so fast that Shi Lang had no time to react. Dangerous

At that time, Luo Shiyin jumped to Shi Lang and slapped his palm against Gao Xiaotian's momentum. This palm did not touch the "Strong Eagle King". However, his palm power was strong and powerful, as if it was overwhelming. The powerful shock wave emitted by the iron palm made the "Strong Eagle King" turn over several times in the air, and fell heavily to the ground and spit blood, lying on the ground. Lu Buzhou led several other masters to rushed over immediately and surrounded Luo Shiyin in the middle. Luo Shiyin's mouth was slightly raised and his face showed contempt. He didn't say anything, and his palms danced. The wide courtyard of Duan's mansion suddenly flew sand and stones, and the sky was dark. After a few moves, all the masters of Duan's martial arts under Duan were lying on the ground and could not move. Duan finally surrendered.

As for whom Luo Shiyin taught this set of "Ten Roads to Suppress the Demon Clusters in the Wind", Shi Lang didn't know.

Back to the point, Luo Shiyin saw a large net covering the four people, immediately stole the horse, and used a move similar to Tai Chi cloud hand to hold the net, and then swung the four masked people who were about to close the net into the air. The masked people who were thrown out fell heavily to the ground and let out a few screams. Luo Shiyin scattered the net in his hand towards other masked people not far away. More than a dozen masked people originally wanted to close the net and rushed forward to cut the opponent, but unexpectedly, the other party not only easily broke their moves, but also covered a large net towards them. As a last resort, they had no choice but to use the unearth escape technique to avoid the big net.

Japanese Ninja!

Although Luo Shiyin was already mentally prepared for the arrival of the Japanese, he did not expect that they would come so suddenly!

Just when Luo Shiyin was surprised, "Shuh, Shuh, Shuh...", more than a dozen masked men flashed in front of them like ghostly, each of them holding a bright ninja knife in their hands.

Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang and four others set off and prepared to face the enemy.

This group of Japanese ninjas is obviously well-trained. With the order of a thin masked man among them, more than a dozen masked men came in neatly. They did not just surround the opponent to attack, but attacked in waves in a team of four. One wave was repelled, and then the next wave immediately attacked. This kind of tactic of taking turns to consume the opponent's physical strength and destroy the enemy's will.

Ye Ruliu leaned against Shi Lang's right hand holding the deathly rose thorn. She discovered a plan to break the enemy from the opponent's wave attack. She noticed that every wave of attacks by the masked man was initiated by the thin masked man at the end. Through the person's movement, Ye Ruliu judged with the unique keen observation of a woman: this is a woman. Ye Ruliu seized the opportunity and before the next attack was reached, she soared into the air, crossed the Japanese ninja in front, and appeared in front of the masked Japanese woman. At the same time, the deadly rose thorn in her hand quickly stabbed the thin woman like lightning.

Ye Ruliu's judgment was correct. This was indeed a woman. When she saw Ye Ruliu hitting her in the air, she skillfully rolled to the back of the right and avoided Ye Ruliu's fatal blow. Then, a carp thrust, jumped up from the ground, and fought back at Ye Ruliu with a knife. Ye Ruliu met with a thorn, tightly entangled the Japanese woman, so that she could not take care of other masked people. Without the command of this woman, the formation of the masked people was suddenly in chaos. Luo Shiyin and others took the opportunity to enter the enemy formation. Several masked people were shot dead one after another.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Japanese woman flapped her move and jumped out of the formation, then raised her right hand and three Bafang Shurijians came straight to Ye Ruliu's face. Ye Ruliu's body flipped back, not only avoiding the fatal blow, but also kicked two Bafang Shurijians with her feet in the flip. She didn't want the dart to hurt her companions behind her. What was scary happened? The Bafang Shurijian that was not kicked away flew directly to the fighting Luo Shise. Shi Lang wanted to use a knife to hit the dart, but it was too late. Seeing that the dart went straight to Luo Shise, Shi Lang had to fly on Luo Shise, and blocked the fatal blow with his body. The dart pierced deeply into Shi Lang's back.

This Yafang Shuriken is one of the commonly used shurikens by Japanese ninjas. It is actually a round dart with eight edges and corners. The blades on both sides of each edge are extremely sharp. After being thrown out of the hand by the ninja, it will rotate rapidly in the air. No matter which edge of it is hit, the injured will be severely injured.

"Brother Shi Lang!" Ye Ruliu wanted to rush over to save Shi Lang, but was entangled by three masked people surrounding him.

The Japanese woman whispered a command, and the group of Japanese ninjas immediately divided into two parts, part of which besieged Luo Shiyin, Shi Tianji, and Ye Ruliu, making it difficult for the three of them to separate; the other people, together with the Japanese woman, set up the injured Shilang and retreated to the Yalu River southeast of the town.

Luo Shiyin, Ye Ruliu and the other three rushed desperately, trying to grab Shi Lang back. Helplessly, they were entangled by the masked man.

The masked ninja fought and retreated to the Yalu River. A small boat was already waiting there. The Japanese woman directed her subordinates to put Shilang on the boat, left a few companions fighting on the shore and fled to the other side.

Ye Ruliu tried hard to kill several masked men who besieged him and chased him to the riverside. Luo Shiyin and Shi Tianji also shot his opponent and rushed over.

The boat has gradually faded away.

"Copy Shi Lang——" Ye Ruliu called Shi Lang, bent down helplessly, and tears burst out from her eyes.

"The operation of this group of Japanese ninjas is a planned and premeditated attack on the squad. The squad was ordered by the emperor to enter North Korea to investigate, which was a top-secret operation, but the Japanese actually got the news so quickly, which shows that the opponents they are about to face on this trip are definitely not ordinary people. It seems that the squad's future operations should be extra cautious." Luo Shiyin looked at the shimmering Yalu River with a serious expression.
