Volume 3 The Storm Rises Chapter 170 Hell Ghosts
The token is made of pure gold and engraved with the word "ban", which is a very rare token, and its only function is to enter and exit the palace at will when there is no curfew, without access restrictions.
After Hu Yu took the token, Yu Yi said with some envy: "Lord Hu, this is a pass token given by the emperor, and the emperor has issued an edict to let you enter the palace more often in the future." ”
Hu Yu hugged his fist towards Yu Yi and said, "Thank you, Lord Yu, I still have some things to do next, so I'll leave." ”
Yu Yi hurriedly replied: "Then Master Hu go slowly, come to the palace to have a look when you have time." ”
Yu Yi's tone has a hint of flattery, although he is a palace guard, but when he is not on duty, he is not allowed to enter and leave the palace at will, and the token in Hu Yu's hand is different, it can not only enter and exit the palace at will, but also represents the emperor's absolute trust in a person, so far, such a token has only been issued three, plus this one in Hu Yu's hand, a total of only four, which shows how precious this token is.
Hu Yu turned around, turned his back to the palace and walked towards the street, the right hand holding the token was already pale, without the slightest blood, and his originally somewhat confused eyes also became gloomy and terrifying, at this time Hu Yu seemed to be a demon from hell, exuding an astonishing aura from all over his body.
Looking at the token in his hand and the word forbidden in the center of the token, Hu Yu gasped deeply, and his heart burned with rage.
This token is a supreme honor for anyone else, representing the absolute trust of the emperor, but not for Hu Yu, which is a warning from Liu An, or the most ruthless humiliation of the victor to the loser.
Hu Yu secretly swore in his heart: "Liu An, one day, I will make you pay for everything you have done." ”
With a flip of the wrist, the token disappeared from Hu Yu's hand, and Hu Yu's face also returned to its former calm, now in the imperial city, where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, their words and deeds must be cautious, do not show any flaws, maybe somewhere someone is watching their every move.
Randomly found an inn, Hu Yu fell asleep after walking into the guest room, although more than two months have passed, but for Hu Yu, everything just happened last night, after so many things, he was too tired, he needed time to slowly calm down, Hu Yu, who fell on the bed, soon let out a slight snoring sound, obviously already asleep.
When Hu Yu woke up, it was already the dead of night, and the imperial city, which had been noisy for a day, was also quiet at this time, except for the brothels around Yilian Lake, which were still singing and swallowing, people in other places had already finished their day's activities and lay down in their nests, looking forward to the beautiful scenery in their dreams.
Hu Yu opened the window, the cool breeze blew in the evening, so that Hu Yu's head was completely sober, looking at the wide street, looking at the buildings on both sides of the street, Hu Yu fell into deep thought, and he didn't know how Meng Hao was now, whether he had entered the army of Zhenyuan Kingdom, and how long it would take to take charge of his own power.
Just when Hu Yu was thinking wildly, he suddenly saw a figure appear on the opposite roof, and the sturdy figure was constantly rising and falling on the roof, and finally disappeared after entering a deep mansion compound.
A look of surprise flashed in Hu Yu's eyes, that figure looked quite familiar, and it was a little similar to Zhou Qiaoxin who he had been looking for, could it be that there was such a coincidental thing in the world? Hu Yu didn't have time to think about it, he turned over and walked out of the window, and then with a slight force under his feet, the whole person jumped over the wide street, landed lightly on the opposite roof, and then followed the place where the figure disappeared.
Tan Mansion, the residence of Tan Dong, the chief officer of the Ministry of War.
At this time, except for the candles in the corridor, the lights in all the houses of the Tan Mansion have been turned off, and the people inside have already gone to bed to rest.
Tan Dong was lying on the bed at this time, tossing and turning but couldn't sleep, which caused Jia Xueyan, who slept with him, to complain.
"I don't sleep in the middle of the night, are you thinking about which top brand again?"
Tan Dong turned over and said angrily: "Go and go, what are you talking about, it's too hot to sleep." ”
Jia Xueyan sat up, slapped Tan Dong on the back vigorously, and said with a crying voice: "You slept sweetly in Liu Xing'er's arms yesterday, but you can't sleep in the old lady's bed today, right?"
Tan Dong was slapped on his back, and he felt a little hot pain, so he sat up from the bed all of a sudden, stared at Jia Xueyan and said, "You girl is still finished, I ran to Mengxianglou early this morning to make trouble, and I won't stop yet!"
Jia Xueyan cried and said: "You have the face to go, don't you have the face to let the old lady say? Tell me, if you don't have my Jia family, can you sit in the position of the head of the military department? Before you sit down, you dare to go to the Qinglou to find those indiscriminate women, do you think you have hard wings now?"
Tan Dong listened to the big head, ignored Jia Xueyan, got off the bed, put on a robe and walked towards the door.
Seeing that Tan Dong was leaving, Jia Xueyan cried and shouted, "Where are you going? You have no conscience, and you are still thinking about that woman, right?"
Tan Dong still walked out, ignoring Jia Xueyan.
Jia Xueyan sobbed twice, and then said to Tan Dong, who had already walked to the door: "Hmph! If you dare to go to that again, I will go back to my parents' house tomorrow and tell my father, I don't think you want this official anymore." ”
Tan Dong frowned, his eyes were full of aggrieved anger, and said to Jia Xueyan in the room, "I'll go to the guest room to sleep." ”
After finishing speaking, Tan Dong refused to take one more step, slammed the door shut, and walked towards the courtyard next to him.
Hu Yu quietly sneaked into the Tan Mansion and walked along the corridor, the figure that had entered the courtyard before was gone, and he didn't know where he was hiding.
Avoiding a few night patrols, Hu Yu came to the backyard, and happened to see Tan Dong, who slammed the door, walking towards him angrily, Hu Yu hurriedly hid his figure so as not to be discovered by Tan Dong.
However, Tan Dong didn't take a few steps, he covered his neck in pain, his eyes bulged out, as if he had seen a demon, and he was terrified.
A figure came out from behind a large tree in the courtyard, this man was wearing a night coat, and only a pair of bright eyes appeared on his face.
Hu Yu could clearly feel the fluctuation of the vitality in the courtyard at this time, and when he looked around, he saw that the ten fingers of the man in black were constantly dancing, and the vitality in his body also came out with his fingers, forming a circle of thin threads, which were wrapped around Tan Dong's neck.
The man in black walked towards Tan Dong step by step, and with the movements between his fingers, it looked like he was dancing a dance music belonging to death, and slowly approached Tan Dong.
Tan Dong covered his neck and couldn't speak, and even breathing became more and more difficult, and his body, which was already a little rickety, had completely shrunk into a ball at this time, and there was a silent struggle on the ground.
The man in black came to Tan Dong, squatted down and brought his pair of smart eyes in front of Tan Dong, and then said softly: "I am a ghost from hell, and I have come to ask for your life for the one hundred and twenty-six people who died unjustly, tonight's death is just the beginning, you will fall into that boundless hell, endure endless suffering, and resolve the heinous sins you have committed." ”
Tan Dong stared at the man in black in front of him in horror, his original smart eyes were already covered with strange blood red at this time, just like he said, he was a ghost from hell, and he came to the world tonight just to seek revenge, but Tan Dong couldn't understand what one hundred and twenty-six lives were all about, and when did he provoke such an enemy.
Without making a sound, Tan Dong opened his eyes wide and slumped to the ground, his eyes were more confused than frightened, until the moment he lost his breath, he didn't know why he died, a master from the third grade, died in his own home in this way.
