Chapter 145 Red Light

At this time, knowing that the master had been ambushed, the Rapeseed Gang hurried over with a group of people. There were twenty or thirty thugs holding guns and sticks, and they looked quite serious. But when they arrived at the scene and saw corpses and knives and guns all over the ground, they were dumbfounded. They couldn't help but feel lucky that they didn't make it in time. If they had made it, they would have been lying on the ground. Now it was a good time for them to come and clean up the battlefield. They were experts in this regard, and they guaranteed that they would not even leave behind any underwear. They let these Boxers come naked and leave naked without any worries.

"Clean up this place and then go back." Yan Xu was not surprised to see the rat snake coming, but this guy was not loyal to the point of disregarding life and death. He just knew that he would not die so easily and took the opportunity to show his loyalty, so he said it casually.

"Master, do you need me to bring some people with you?" When Caihua Snake saw that the master was loading bullets into the revolver, he knew that the master was not going to give up the job tonight, so he hurriedly said.

"Okay, but stay away and be smart." Yan Xu nodded, then called the seven wolves to continue heading towards their destination.

Rape Snake called a confidant, gave him some instructions, and then took five or six good men with guns to follow behind him from a distance.

When Yan Xu and his group arrived at the dock, they immediately discovered that there were more Boxers coming to the Magic City than he had imagined. They had just killed dozens of people, but there were still so many here. However, a closer look revealed that something was wrong. These should be the believers developed by the Boxers after they came to the Magic City.

At present, an altar has been set up in the warehouse at the dock, with red lanterns hung all around it. A dozen women in red clothes and red pants, holding red lanterns in one hand and folding fans in the other, are chanting something. Surrounding them are more than a hundred laborers who have been working at the dock all year round.

At this time, a dark-skinned woman was fortune-telling on the altar. When she saw the hexagram displayed after the coin fell to the ground, her face changed.

Lin Honglian slammed the table hard, shaking off the tortoise shell copper coins, then stood up and was about to speak, but looking at the confused and terrified faces of the believers, she didn't know what to say.

The situation now is no longer the same as it was back then. Not only are the Boxers hated by the foreigners, but the Qing Dynasty also has no intention of giving them a way to survive. They have no choice but to wander around.

This time, I happened to take a job and went to Shanghai to deal with a fake foreigner.

Not only was the other party born in a foreign country, he also opened a shop in the concession and killed many people in the Magic City.

Even if it's not about the money, such people should be killed, so Lin Honglian came to the Magic City with the senior brother from another altar.

The employer was indeed quite capable. He managed to get them in without telling anyone and also brought in a batch of pistols.

At this time, Lin Honglian felt something was wrong. How could someone who had such strength but couldn't be dealt with be just an ordinary idiot?

And judging from the other party's behavior, he is probably not a good person.

Before joining the Boxer Rebellion, Lin Honglian had been around the underworld and was at the bottom of the society, so she was very sensitive. After a little investigation, she realized that they were indeed being used.

Lin Honglian didn't care what the other party did, as she was already accustomed to it. What annoyed her was that they were not given this business.

If it were in the past, she would have turned hostile and attacked directly, but now she doesn't have the confidence to do so.

So the eldest brother of the branch temple took most of the people to ambush the other side, while she developed believers on the spot.

Only with enough believers can they get rid of those people and take root in the Demon City to continue their business, so she cannot bring these believers into trouble.

"That's all for today. You should go back and practice well. One day you will be able to escape from the sea of ​​suffering." Lin Honglian calmed down and said to everyone.

After the believers dispersed, Lin Honglian sat cross-legged on the altar, as if waiting for something. Yan Xu knew at a glance that she was waiting for him.

The other party may not have discovered that they were lying in ambush outside, but they had confirmed through some means that they would come, so a sneak attack would not be very effective.

"The old plan. I'll attract attention and you'll take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack." Yan Xu let the seven wolves disperse and walked forward step by step with the Mo Dao in his hand.

"It seems that Senior Brother and the others have died at your hands." Lin Honglian said coldly as he stared at Yan Xu, who still had murderous intent in his eyes.

Although she and the senior brother did not have much friendship, they were all members of the Boxer Rebellion after all. When the rabbit dies, the fox will feel grief, not to mention that the Boxers can only huddle together for warmth now.

"So, what are you going to do?" Although the other party was a woman, Yan Xu always believed in gender equality, so he directly retorted.

The Boxers are no longer the original Boxers. After they committed those unscrupulous things, Yan Xu had no intention of showing any leniency. As for distinguishing the guilty and the innocent, that is the job of the judge and the King of Hell.

Yan Xu's words silenced Lin Honglian. Just give up? She didn't want to, and it seemed that the other party didn't want to either, so she had to fight.

"Junior sisters, set up the red lotus fire formation!" Lin Honglian stood up, took the red lanterns and folding fans from the altar, and then spoke to the dozen women holding red lanterns around her.

Yan Xu had long seen that the other party was a special branch of the Boxers, the Red Lantern Society. It was said that they only accepted women and were good at using magic, so of course he would not give them the opportunity to perform.

The seven wolves hiding in the dark fired at the same time in perfect harmony, and the cross fire covered all the red lanterns. Unexpectedly, the other side was well prepared. The altar emitted a red light to block the bullets. Then all the red lanterns flew into the air as if they were hanging on wires, and then threw out the red lanterns in their hands.

"Hide!" Howling Wolf did not dare to underestimate the opponent, so when he saw the strange red lantern flying towards him, he warned his brothers immediately.

Sure enough, after the seven wolves rolled over to avoid the attack, the red lanterns that fell from the sky burst into flames, engulfing an area of ​​the boss in flames.

Yan Xu, who was not attacked, frowned, not understanding the origin of the fluttering red lantern, which looked like it was filled with kerosene. But it didn't matter anymore. He was only more than ten meters away from Lin Honglian without stopping.

"It's not too late for you to surrender. My red lotus fire can burn everything, even souls can't escape. If you don't want your soul to be torn apart, kneel in front of me and join the Boxers." When Yan Xu approached, Lin Honglian realized that she was careless. The man in front of her was not a cultivator of magic, but a serious martial artist.

There was no time to figure out how a martial artist could deal with the invulnerable senior brother and dozens of boxers armed with swords and guns. Lin Honglian spoke to attract Yan Xu's attention, and then took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. A redder and brighter red lantern flew straight to his face.

Tai Chi's lightning five-shot burst reappeared. Yan Xu drew his gun and fired five shots in one breath without any interval. With one shot, he blew up the red lantern, and it really exploded as if it was filled with kerosene.

Yan Xu did not dodge, he knew that the opportunity was rare, so he just deflected the gun, and except for one shot that missed, the remaining three shots all hit the opponent's cloak.

Unexpectedly, Lin Honglian mastered a skill similar to escaping from a golden cicada shell. She wrapped herself in a big red cloak and disappeared, leaving only the torn cloak on the spot.

Lin Honglian appeared again and was standing far away. She didn't care about the torn cloak. You know, this thing can save her life. She reacted very quickly and took out a pistol from behind her and shot Yan Xu in the forehead.
