Under the shaman's witchcraft, the Hu cavalry, which had already suffered heavy injuries and had already lost their morale, suddenly charged forward once more!
Blood and fire! Life and death! A battle for survival between different races once again unfolded on the Great Green Manor's earthen walls!
What was different from before was that the shaman's appearance raised the Hu's morale and combat power to the peak, while the Great Green Manor's side fell to the bottom.
Under the blood-red setting sun, the Hu charged several times and almost broke through the defensive line. It was only thanks to Wang Yin, Wu Ming, and the other warriors that they managed to resist.
When the stars shone brightly and the Hu retreated, Wu Ming and Wang Yin could not hide their exhaustion, and their armor was riddled with wounds.
"Phew …"
With the help of two village warriors, Wang Yin finally managed to remove the bloody armor that was almost glued to his body. He smiled bitterly at Wu Ming and said, "Young Master Nameless, I've used up a lot of vital energy today. I'm afraid I'll need to rest for a night before I can continue on the battlefield. I'll leave this place to you …"
"Don't worry, I don't want the Hu to invade and die a horrible death!"
Today, Wang Yin had bravely fought on the frontlines, charging even more fiercely than Wu Ming and even taking down the most enemies. This was something that everyone had seen. Wu Ming immediately smiled.
"Very good … When the Hu retreat, I'll make friends with you!"
Wang Yin's attitude toward Wu Ming was very friendly, but it was unknown whether it was because of Huang Ying's influence.
Seeing Wang Yin leave, Qin Hu stepped forward and said, "You've done a lot today as well. Go and rest early! Don't let the beauty wait too long … "
As he spoke, he wore a smile that all men understood. It was obvious that he had misunderstood something.
In reality, although Wu Ming seemed to be very brave, his goal was different from Wang Yin's, and he had secretly held back a little.
Seeing that Qin Hu was going to take up the duty of night watch, he was moved, but he put on a grateful expression and said, "Many thanks!"
Without another word, he went down the earthen wall.
However … Qin Hu did not notice that after Wu Ming went down the wall, a cold expression flashed across his face.
…
"Our mission is to survive … Therefore, we can choose the Verdant Manor's side, but we can also choose the Hu people's side!"
In the dark attic, Wu Ming and Huang Ying stood side by side. They looked at the seemingly peaceful manor and suddenly said.
"You … Could it be that Qin Hu wants to …" Huang Ying covered her red lips. Even though she had a vague guess, she still found it hard to believe when she heard it for herself. "Isn't he afraid …"
"Everyone always thinks that they are special … Perhaps, he thinks that because of his meritorious service, the Hu people will look up to him!"
Wu Ming's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "The Hu people are strong, but the Great Green Manor is weak. If not for a coincidence, the manor would have fallen today. It would have been impossible for it to hold out for seven days. The enemy also has the help of a shaman … This person worships strength and obeys the strong. What do you think he will do in this situation?"
"You knew he was going to donate the manor? Why didn't you take him down …? "
Huang Ying stopped mid-sentence, a bitter smile on her face.
After all, they were outsiders just like Qin Hu! Even if they exposed Qin Hu's plot, they would probably be even more suspicious.
Moreover, even if they got rid of the internal threat, the two of them had no confidence that the Great Green Manor would be able to hold out for seven days.
"Therefore … we have to take the risk!"
Wu Ming suddenly pricked up his ears and discovered that there was a slight disturbance in the earthen enclosure. The rhythmic sound of horse hooves could be heard from outside. He could not help but say to Huang Ying, "It has begun. We will act according to plan!"
"I understand!"
Huang Ying looked at Wu Ming with a complicated expression, then disappeared into the darkness.
…
"Lord Qin, what … what are you doing?"
When they saw Qin Hu suddenly attack and chop the two people beside him to death as if he was chopping vegetables, the villagers around him were dumbfounded.
"What am I doing? Hehe … I'm surrendering, of course! "
Qin Hu licked the fresh blood on his blade, his expression crazed and cruel.
Suddenly, he pounced forward, his blade flashing. He was an expert at the third tier of the physical body realm. Dealing with ordinary villagers was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. In an instant, he killed all the guards.
"Murder!"
"Outsiders are killing people!"
…
Screams and gongs sounded, but Qin Hu only smiled coldly. "Hehe … Wu Ming, Huang Ying, good luck to you adulterous couple!"
He pulled the lever and slowly opened the main gate.
Outside, the well-prepared barbarians immediately charged. Several riders charged in like the wind.
The barbarians were originally a race on horseback. Only with one man and one horse could they unleash their greatest battle power. Over the past few days, they could only give up on their strongest point and use their weak point to attack their strong point. They had been suppressing their anger for a long time. Now that they charged in on horseback, they were incomparably sharp.
"Sirs, I am …"
Seeing this, Qin Hu's expression quickly changed. With a smile, he went up to them.
But in an instant, his expression changed.
When the barbarians saw him, they did not stop. Instead, they urged their horses forward with a sinister smile on their faces.
"Ah …"
A flash of a blade appeared. The barbarian was one with his horse. Using the horse's power to charge, the power of his blade was comparable to that of a true energy realm expert.
Qin Hu barely managed to raise his steel blade to block.
"Clang!"
Amidst the loud sound, his arm shook violently. The web between his thumb and forefinger split open, and his long blade flew out. A huge wound appeared on his chest, and he fell to the ground. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes showed signs of struggle. Clearly, this was the final radiance of a setting sun.
"Thud thud!"
Soon after, a large number of hooves trampled over him, crushing him into minced meat.
"Kill!"
"Kill all the Han dogs!"
The barbarians roared excitedly and spread out. Like tigers entering a flock of sheep, they slaughtered one after another.
The entire Great Green Manor instantly turned into a living hell.
Near the ancestral hall that housed the old, weak, women, and children, the crowd woke up from their sleep and fell into chaos. Wang Yin also ran out, battered and exhausted. "What's going on? Why did the barbarians enter just like that? "
In the chaos, who would answer him? He could only take out his Snake Spear and throw it, piercing through a barbarian rider.
"Brother Wang!"
Wu Ming, wearing leather armor, suddenly rushed over. "The barbarians attacked at night and broke in. It was my fault! Only by killing the leader will we have a chance of survival! "
"I'll go too!"
Wang Yin was unwilling to pass on this responsibility.
Through Huang Ying's investigation, Wu Ming already knew that this person was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He had an honest and straightforward personality. The lives and future of the entire manor were in his hands, so he was even more duty-bound.
"Yin 'er!"
Wang Yin immediately pulled out his Snake Spear and followed Wu Ming, ignoring Wang Qiao who was running out behind him.
…
"Mm! Very good … with the thousand people outside and the living creatures in the manor, I'll definitely be able to refine my Dharma Drum! "
At this moment, the shaman wearing a deer horn mask disregarded the danger of the battle and rode a fine horse. Beside him, a team of ten people nervously followed him into the manor, but they did not participate in the feast of slaughter.
The shaman raised the blood-red Dharma Drum in his hand and beat it continuously while chanting.
Under the light of the fire, the blood-red color on the Dharma Drum was bright and glistening. The strange symbols seemed to have a life of their own, twisting and turning as if they were alive, giving off a strange feeling.
"Damn it, the practices of evil sorcerers!"
Seeing this, Wang Yin's eyes turned red. "The shaman's Dharma Drum uses white bones as the frame, human skin as the face, and blood to collect the power of vengeful spirits …"
In ancient times, the afterlife was extremely important. For the shaman to kill you and make you unable to rest in peace after death, it was even more hateful than digging up the graves of ancestors.
Even Wu Ming felt his scalp go numb.
"Charge with me!"
Wang Yin called out. He pulled out a short spear from his back and threw it out. In an instant, a Hu cavalryman was pierced through.
"Protect the shaman!"
The Hu cavalrymen roared, and the death knights charged forward.
"Kill!"
Wang Yin infused his Snake Spear with strength, causing the long handle to bend at a strange angle, and he threw it out.
"Bang!"
A Hu cavalryman and his horse fell to the ground and were dismembered by the villagers who charged up.
"Release the arrows!"
The two sides clashed, and the battle was extremely tragic.
Seeing this, a hint of disdain appeared on the shaman's face. He suddenly took out a bone whistle from his bosom and blew on it.
Xiu xiu!
The ear-piercing whistle was like an invisible arrow. A villager clutched his neck and fell straight down. His face was completely black.
The shaman continuously blew his whistle, and every time, a person would fall. His ferocious might soared to the heavens, and the surrounding Hu gradually gathered, placing Wang Yin and the others at an absolute disadvantage.
"Don't stand in front of the shaman! His whistle is poisonous!"
Wu Ming had been hiding his head from the start, so he wasn't the first target. After observing for a moment, he immediately shouted.
"That's right! Don't let the whistle face you!"
Wang Yin came and went like the wind, killing another two Hu cavalrymen.
The villagers scattered, taking out their bows and arrows to fend off the enemy. However, the shaman was still calm and unhurried, continuing to kill with his whistle.
Xiong xiong!
Suddenly, the light in the surroundings grew brighter and brighter, and the terrifying flames continued to spread.
"Water is on fire!"
"Water is on fire!"
…
The dazzling flames almost illuminated the sky, causing the entire Great Azure Village to tremble in the sea of fire.
"What's going on?" Wang Yin was anxious. "Are the Hu arson?"
But at this moment, the shaman was also anxious. He shouted loudly, as if he wanted to gather and reorganize the troops.
After all, the spreading fire had divided the entire Hu cavalry, and there was even a possibility of friendly fire.
The Great Azure Village was surrounded by earth, so the space inside was not very big. The buildings were continuous, and the most dangerous thing was that the outermost area was mostly made of wood and grass. Not even a single brick could be seen, so the fire would be very dangerous.
If something went wrong, the villagers and the Hu would all die together.
"Lu lu!"
At this moment, the shaman brought the last Tulu warrior with him and turned his horse around, clearly intending to leave.
But how could Wu Ming bear to let him leave? He immediately pulled out the high-quality horn bow on his back, nocked an arrow, and released.
Xiu!
The wolf fang arrow flew straight at the shaman, but was blocked by the horse. It hit the shaman in the neck, and blood gushed out.
To shoot the man, one had to shoot the horse first. The shaman's mount fell to the ground and rolled pathetically.
"Ha! Hand over your life! "
Seeing that the Hu reinforcements were being blocked by the fire, although he was anxious, how could Wang Yin let go of this heaven-sent opportunity to kill the enemy leader? With a loud shout, the Snake Spear shot out like a spirit snake, knocking the last Tulu warrior off his horse and charging at the shaman.
