Wei Zeng and Wen Di avoided the approaching city defense troops and ran to a secluded place.
When they saw no one around, they stopped to rest.
"Wendi, why are you there?"
Wei Zeng asked.
"I'm passing by."
Wen first said with a relaxed attitude.
"This is really..."
Wei Zeng was speechless.
"Okay, let's not joke.
In fact, I saw that you have been looking strange since you heard the news that the Jingnan Army came to Beijing.
I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I followed you quietly.
I also followed you today.
I saw that you were in danger. , so I came to help."
Wen Di looked at Wei Zeng seriously and said.
"Wendi, this actually has nothing to do with you.
I'm really sorry to involve you.
If it weren't for you today, I wouldn't be able to kill my enemies with my hands.
I would like to thank you."
Wei Zeng said and bowed to Wen Di. .
"Why are you thanking me?
In fact, it's not because of you.
I want to go to them too.
These people harm the people and can walk around in public.
I have long disliked them.
What's more, I also said that I will never see them.
Let them go.
So you have nothing to thank me for, so I have to return the favor."
Wen Di bowed back to Wei Zeng.
"Wendi actually wants to thank you."
As he spoke, Wei Zeng bowed again.
"You, you're not done yet.
Are you going to worship heaven and earth with me?"
Wendy blurted out, but immediately knew that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed her words: "You are hurt, don't move yet, I will give it to you Bandage it."
When Wei Zeng heard Wen Di say this, he was stunned and didn't know how to respond.
Seeing that Wen Di wanted to bandage his wound, he quickly declined and took out the medicine to treat the wound.
"Actually, I'm good at bandaging wounds, although my father and I are almost uninjured."
Wen Di said a little aggrievedly when Wei Zeng refused to let him do it.
Wei Zeng and Wen Di decided to tell Liu Hexin and others the news first, and then find a way to sneak out of the city tomorrow.
On their way back to the house, Wei Zeng and Wen Di discovered that many iron-blooded sergeants were patrolling the streets and shouting about martial law and the prohibition of fire.
Wei Zeng and Wen were careful not to be discovered the first time, but it also took a lot of time.
When approaching Liu Hexin's house, Wei Zeng and Wen Di discovered that a large group of guards had surrounded the community where martial arts people gathered.
The two of them were shocked: "Did things come to light so quickly?"
It turns out that in the name of maintaining public security in the capital and facilitating the holding of martial arts conferences, Yin Yi, the capital master, specially arranged a community for martial arts people to stay temporarily.
Of course, Yin, the capital master, also made such arrangements under the emperor's order.
Most people were puzzled that the court attached so much importance to the convening of the martial arts conference, but some sects who had already learned about the news were very calm.

This was just a show of favor by the court to recruit martial arts people to deal with the cultists.
But no one expected that this was also a move by the emperor to prepare for the encirclement and killing of martial arts people who were unwilling to cooperate.
After the commander-in-chief of the Jingnan Army was killed tonight, the patrol officers immediately reported the incident to the capital defense envoy.
General Zhao, the defense envoy of the capital, was discussing the arrangements for the fifteenth day's operations with Marshal Jingnan Army and Di Xianlan at the Yamen.
After receiving the report from the city patrol officers, Marshal Jingnan kept pacing back and forth in the lobby, thinking about how to deal with the matter.
General Zhao and Di Xianlan did not dare to say anything.
"No, this matter needs to be reported to the emperor.
Just after the Jingnan Army accepted the reward, the commander was assassinated in the capital.
This is beyond our control.
It seems that we can't delay it any longer.
We need to act in advance.
The news must be leaked.
Yes, cultist In retaliation.
General Zhao, please quickly send someone to notify the sects who have agreed to cooperate to hide in the house in Xicheng.
You yourself will lead the soldiers who are already ambushing in Xicheng to surround the community and eliminate the rebels as soon as the emperor's order arrives.
General Di, please quickly lead the eight thousand soldiers under your command to enforce martial law throughout the city.
Anyone who violates the prohibition will be shot without mercy, and cameras will be used to intercept and kill the fleeing traitors.
I will go to see the emperor immediately and ask for orders to attack. " "My subordinates accept the order.
However, many martial arts sects of the Marshal have not responded whether to cooperate.
If we send troops in this way, many people will be accidentally killed."
General Zhao said quickly.
"I can't wait.
With such a big thing happening, we would rather kill by mistake than let it go.
If a moment's hesitation leads to a catastrophe, it is not something you and I can bear.
Just obey the order." said the Marshal of the Jingnan Army.
He was about to go out, but he remembered something and said to Di Xianlan: "By the way, General Di, you should send more people to protect the dignitaries in the city.
This may be an opportunity to ease your relationship with the DPRK and China."
"As ordered, I will do as I am told."
Di Xianlan replied.
The marshal of the Jingnan Army sighed and went out.
"General Marshal Di still takes care of you."
"If it hadn't been for the marshal's care these years, I, Di Xianlan, would have gone home and become a farmer.
If the marshal showed me kindness, Di would definitely repay him with his death."
"This matter in the court is not something that we military men can figure out.
But we are lucky to be under the command of our marshal.
The marshal is not as difficult to serve as the dignitaries in the court, and he is a favor to us low-ranking people."
"That's true."
Not long after, the emperor issued an edict to punish those who caused trouble in the martial arts world.
After the emperor heard that the commander of the Jingnan Army had been killed, he looked panicked and without asking any questions, he hurriedly ordered the siege and killing of the martial arts people.
He had long forgotten his plan to use the power of civilian warriors to deal with the cultists.
When Wei Zeng and Wen Di were thinking about how to go in and inform everyone, a messenger on horseback arrived.
After reading the edict, the city defense army rushed towards the community.
There were flashes of fire in the community, the sounds of swords and shouts continued.
The shouts of killing from the east side aroused a group of more than 300 warriors who broke out of the siege and rushed towards the city gate.
Seeing this, Wei Zeng and Wen Di quickly killed and supported them.

After cutting down a few sergeants, he joined the others.
When Wei Zeng and Wen Di saw that the leader was a warrior who knew Liu Hexin, they stepped forward to inquire about Liu Hexin's group.
It turned out that everyone had already known that they were surrounded.
Some people shouted that they had misunderstood and wanted to negotiate with the city defense army.
When the city defense army was attacking, everyone was fighting and divided into several groups to break through.
Liu Hexin left this group and went to the west.
But everyone who broke through the encirclement rushed towards the city gate.
So Wei Zeng and Wen Di followed the passers-by and went towards the city gate to kill.
Along the way, they met a group of city defense troops who were blocking everyone.
The martial arts masters attacked and defeated the group in a short time.
When everyone turned a corner and reached a thoroughfare, another group of more than a hundred soldiers stood in front of them.
This group of sergeants was different from the city defense army.
Everyone wore steel helmets and plate armor, and held steel shields and spears.
They formed a shield wall and marched towards the crowd in neat steps.
One person shouted "Kill!"
and then charged towards the Jagged Army first, and under his leadership, everyone also attacked together.
However, under the repeated assassinations of the Iron-blooded Steel Formation, more than thirty martial arts masters were killed on the spot, while the Iron-blooded Army suffered minimal losses.
Everyone retreated and fired their bows, arrows, slingshots, javelins, and hidden weapons.
But the Iron-Blooded Army, protected by steel shields and plate armor, was still approaching slowly.
"Everyone ran to the alleys and dispersed to escape, and met together at the city gate to fight out."
After the leading warrior issued this order.
Everyone didn't fight hard and fled to the surrounding alleys.
At this time, more heavy armored infantry and armored cavalry arrived and divided into small groups to hunt down the scattered martial arts people.
Wei Zeng and Wen Di fled to an alley with more than a dozen warriors.
At this time, a group of six iron-blooded infantry appeared in front and blocked everyone's way.
The six people were divided into two lines, front and back, with steel shields and spears in the front, and steel shields and swords in the back, and they pressed towards the crowd.
Everyone knew that there were more Iron-blooded troops chasing after them, and if they wanted to escape, they had to break through the obstruction of these six people.
Wei Zeng struck a javelin under the steel shield of the man in front.
When the man paused, he rushed over and stepped on the javelin.
He crushed the shield and crushed his head, tearing a gap in the formation.
Then he held his shield to block the steel swords from the rear team.
Wen Di and a strong man holding a meteor hammer followed Wei Zeng in the attack.
Wen Di took advantage of the gap in the formation to thrust out with his sword.
While avoiding the spear, he pierced the man's throat with his sword.
Then he retreated quickly, avoiding the long sword stabbed by the rear team.
The strong man struck the last spearman with a star hammer on his shield.
The spearman blocked it.
The rear team's war swords struck, and the strong man was stabbed before he could dodge.
The strong man was injured and wanted to retreat, but saw the spearman slow down and stab the strong man to death with a shot.
The pikemen retreated, and the three shield-swordmen formed a column and continued to advance.
After Wei Zeng and Wen Di retreated, everyone saw that the other party had been killed.
They were inspired and rushed over together.
Three shield-sword soldiers stood in front of him and thrust out their swords between attacks.
The pikemen had thrown away their steel shields and were holding guns in both hands to harm the enemy.
The warriors were not bad at martial arts, but the four of them cooperated well and wore heavy armor.

They missed their vital points and could not be killed.
As a result, more than a dozen people were forced back by four people.
Wei Zeng was anxious when he saw this.
He had just taken the opportunity to break up the formation, but unexpectedly the opponent immediately reorganized their formation and now was specifically defending himself.
Wei Zeng was also unable to do anything.
Suddenly remembering something, he touched his waist, took out a thunderbolt, and struck the four people.
Just hearing a bang, the four of them were blown away.
Wen Di rushed over with his sword and swung his long sword repeatedly, killing two people.
Everyone also rushed over and surrounded them together, finally defeating this iron-blooded army.
At this time, an armored knight appeared behind the crowd, holding a horse spear and stabbed everyone.
Wei Zeng fired a javelin and hit the man's head.
The man fell to the ground and died without saying a word.
"Hurry up, the pursuers are here."
Wei Zeng shouted and led everyone to run towards the city gate.
The first group of Wei Zeng and Wen met up with a few people on the way to the city gate.
From time to time, there were city defense troops and iron-blooded infantry blocking the front.
Fortunately, there were not many people, and everyone was defeated in a hurry.
After everyone defeated another wave of blocking iron-blooded infantry, the sound of horse hooves sounded behind them, and a group of iron-blooded cavalry charged towards the crowd, rushing into the crowd and dividing them up.
Everyone was defeated and scattered and fled.
Wei Zeng and Wen Di broke out of the siege and fled towards the city gate.
When Wei Zeng and Wen Di arrived at the city gate, hundreds of warriors were attacking the city gate, but a hundred iron-blooded soldiers formed a shield wall to block the way.
The Jagged Army stagnated, and the warriors suffered heavy losses in the attack.
More martial arts people came and rushed to kill the enemy troops blocking the way.
Although the Iron-Blooded Army was strong, they retreated to the base of the city wall under the pressure of martial arts warriors who were several times their own.
Liu Hexin and a warrior holding a spear jumped into the retreating Jagged Army, which was somewhat scattered.
They killed five or six sergeants in a burst of fighting, opened a hole, and took advantage of the opportunity to attack with many martial arts masters to expand the results of the battle.
After paying a heavy price, the iron-blooded army was finally split from the middle.
Someone took the opportunity to open the city gate and lower the drawbridge, and all the warriors fled the capital.
Not long after, the Anyun cavalry from the brigade came in pursuit and followed the people who escaped from the capital.
The Anyun cavalry originally dominated the plains, and there were obstacles in the streets and alleys in the city that they could not overcome.
Now that they were out of the city, they were at home on the Anyun plains.
After everyone left the capital, they couldn't enjoy the joy of surviving the disaster, so they fell into flight again with Anyun's cavalry following them.
The people were scattered by the cavalry and fled towards the dense forest and rivers.
The scene was very embarrassing.
Wei Zengwendi and Liu Hexin fought all the way and escaped to a wilderness before getting rid of their pursuers.
Liu Hexin's group now only has about thirty people left, and the others were either killed or dispersed.
This time, nearly three thousand martial arts masters from all over the country gathered in the capital, but now only four to five hundred people have escaped.
The various martial arts schools have suffered heavy losses.
It will not be a good situation for them to continue to avoid the imperial court in the future.
Fortunately, Wei Zhen and Gu Cha were safe and sound, and Wei Zeng finally breathed a sigh of relief
