Chapter 7: The bell rings
Away from the Imperial City, Jingyin Palace.
The hall was silent, with white flags hanging all around, and all the candles on the candlesticks had been lit.
When Fang Tian checked his younger brother's corpse, he was not far from Wang Xuanjiao and the national teacher Meng She, who were standing quietly.
"Don't worry, my brother will avenge you. ”
The two brothers have relied on each other since childhood, and there is no need to say much about their affection. Fang Tian covered the corpse cloth and wiped away a tear from the corner of his eye.
Even though he is a profound cultivator, he can't avoid the feeling of parting from life and death.
"Brother Ling's matter, Jun Shang and I are very sorry, after the incident last night, Jun Shang has asked the Criminal Division to start solving the case, if there is any news, I will quickly tell Gongzi. Meng Shi stepped forward and said. From beginning to end, he didn't ask Fang Qiong why he returned to Panyu.
"You have a heart. Fang Tian nodded lightly at Xuan Hunt.
Jingyin Hall is the place where the mortuary is placed after the death of the Liyue Imperial Family, and Xuanjia can put Fang Qiong's body here, which is enough to show his respect for the Aoki Sect.
"The son is far away, please go to Honglu Temple to rest, and solve the case, Xuanjia will do it with his heart. "The king sent the book to Qingmu Mountain last night, and Fang Tian arrived today, and according to the secret agent's report, the other party had already entered the city in the morning.
Such a speed is enough to show that the other party's realm has been condensed.
Of course, Fang Tian could also come on a fire vulture, but that fire vultures were the mounts of the Aoki Sect Master, and even the five great elders would not dare to use it without permission.
"Honglu won't go, I have my own place to rest. Fang Tian paused and said, "I heard that Xingqing Palace fell yesterday, I don't know why?"
"Xingqing Palace fell into disrepair and collapsed as a result. Meng Shi replied.
"Then why did the monarch block the surroundings of the palace, and why was martial law in the Xuanzheng Hall at night, and even the imperial city was under great array?" Fang Tian looked directly at Xuan Hunt: "It can't be...... Did you get some treasure?"
"Childe is too worried, what is there to leave Yue, I believe in the ...... of the Aoki Sect" Meng Shi was about to continue, Fang Tian suddenly said coldly: "National Teacher, I am asking about the king, not you." ”
Hearing this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Xuan Hunt's eyes, but he still replied: "Yesterday was just worried that someone was fishing in troubled waters, so he sealed the Xingqing Palace. ”
"Winning the Plastic Saint?" Fang Tian smiled disdainfully: "Is the king a three-year-old child?"
Meng Sheyan's face changed when he heard this, and he was about to speak. Fang Tian said lightly: "Please also understand, whose Liyue is Liyue?"
Genkari's fists clenched.
"Could it be that the king wants to kill me?" Fang Tian said as his right hand hung down to his waist.
"Where does Childe speak, Liyue has always respected Aoki Mountain, and please be cautious. "Meng Shi is neither humble nor arrogant.
"Tomorrow at noon, I'll come and fetch the treasure. After Fang Tian finished speaking, his body flickered and disappeared into the Jingyin Palace.
Xuan Hunt's face turned pale: "This son is too deceitful." ”
Meng Shi also said: "If this day is the lord of Aoki, there will be no day when he leaves." ”
......
In the afternoon, under the autumn sun, the front of Haifeng Gate is sparsely populated.
Qu Neng was summoned by the captain of the city gate to discuss the affairs of the government. As soon as he left, the guards of the city were loosened.
There has been no war for many years, and Panyu, as the capital, is even more peaceful.
But Pan Jixing still stood under the city gate in high spirits.
Su Wei finally put Xiaoyu to sleep, and then sat at the wooden table outside the ear room and dozed off.
In the past, if he was like this, Pan Jixing would definitely scold. But today, the old guard did not speak. The reason for this is still on the face of Xiaoyu.
At the corner of the city, Di Yunsheng was still drawing his bow.
Qu Neng once said that it was so useless. But Di Yunsheng did not give up.
As a result, the young man's daily drawing of the bow became a scene in the Hai Feng Gate.
At some point, a dark cloud appeared over the Gate, just blocking the sun. For a while, it was overcast.
Immediately, a man dressed in sackcloth and dressed as a handyman walked along Haifeng Street to the city gate.
His face was covered with a black veil.
He was ready to go out of the city.
Pan Jixing stretched out his hand to stop this person, and said with a serious face: "Please remove the veil." ”
The Mai man's empty eyes glanced at Pan Jixing, and then slowly reached out to remove the veil. Pan Jixing could see that the blood vessels on the back of the other party's hand were strange and clear.
For a moment, his pupils tightened.
Then, he saw the face of the Mai man.
"Gong San ......"
When Pan Jixing spoke, the sword was already unsheathed, but it was still slow. Miyazo's hand was already in his chest.
"Defend against the enemy. ”
The old guards of the city guarding who were standing behind Pan Jixing roared loudly, and at the same time brandished their halberds and attacked the three heads of the palace. Gong Sanyi stretched out his hand, grabbed the halberd branch, and completely ignored the sharp crescent blade that cut his palm.
"Kill. ”
The guards stationed around the city gate rushed towards the palace three with halberds in hand.
Gong San's eyes were already blood-red, he smiled fiercely, snatched the halberd in Lao Qi's hand, and with a wave of his backhand, he cut Lao Qi's head and shoulders into two sections.
Su Wei looked at this bloody scene, he was furious, pulled out the long knife at his waist, and was about to rush over. But at this time, Di Yunsheng pulled him back.
"Don't go, it's a cultivator. Di Yunsheng's tone was a little hurried: "Hurry up and ring the Dengwen bell." ”
The bell hangs at the head of the city, and the bell rope hangs under the city. This bell must not be moved unless it is attacked by the enemy, otherwise it will be killed.
But at this moment, Su Wei can manage so much.
The guards of the Haifeng Gate, except for Qu Neng, are all ordinary people, and they have never practiced, and they are the opponents of Gong San.
But now Qu Neng is still discussing matters in the mansion, and when he comes, it will be too late.
Su Wei ran to the Dengwen bell, untied the bell rope tied to the wooden stake, and swayed vigorously.
Soon, a melodious and long bell rang out.
Under the city gate, Gong San brandished a halberd and killed the guards who rushed over one by one. For a while, the smell of blood permeated the air.
The remaining guards only felt that their legs were weak, and they stayed where they were, not daring to rush again.
But Gong San didn't plan to let them go. Just as he was walking towards a frightened and pale guard with his halberd, there was a sound of breaking wind in his ears.
Gong San was about to stand on the right side of the halberd.
The next moment, a feathered arrow fell to the ground.
Gong San's eyes turned to the side, and he saw Di Yunsheng draw his bow and shoot at him again. After dodging the arrow with ease, he threw the halberd in his hand.
The target was directed at Di Yunsheng.
He is a cultivator at the peak of Qi Gathering, and his halberd is no less than the Heavenly King's armor-breaking crossbow that leaves the string.
Di Yunsheng's qi is wasted, and his physical fitness can't even be compared to ordinary people, where can he avoid this fatal blow.
At the last moment, a figure rushed to Di Yunsheng's side, hugged him and rolled him aside.
"Zheng. ”
The halberd sank into the ground, and the tail trembled.
The sharp crescent blade was less than half an inch away from Su Wei's ankle.
"Go and get the little fish out. ”
As Su Wei spoke, the long knife came out of its sheath and slashed at Gong San, who had already walked over.
Obviously, Gong San has made him and Di Yunsheng his target.
Su Wei has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his martial arts are not weak, but no matter how advanced his martial arts are, they are all floating clouds in front of cultivators.
Therefore, Gong San slapped Su Wei away with one palm and slammed it into the city wall.
Then, his eyes fell on Di Yunsheng.
Originally, Su Wei asked Di Yunsheng to take Xiaoyu out, wanting Xiaoyu to beat Gong San to death with an iron ring, but Di Yunsheng misunderstood Su Wei's meaning. He thought that Su Wei wanted to let him run away with Xiaoyu.
But Gong San blocked the road, how could he run?
Moreover, didn't he hurt the little girl by taking the little fish out of the ear room at this time?
Therefore, Di Yunsheng planned to advance and retreat with Su Wei.
The eldest husband, if he dies, he will die, and he will do it if he does not have a pocket.
It is not appropriate to open a bow in close combat, Di Yunsheng let out a long breath and drew his knife.
In the distance, the guards of the city who were lucky not to die, seeing that Di Yunsheng, a waste man, dared to use a knife, his blood boiled for a while, and he shouted loudly: "Kill." ”
Gong San didn't care, he kicked the ground with his right foot, and in an instant, a wave of energy swept away.
The guards who rushed to his side fell to the ground.
Gong San's fingers opened slightly, and a long knife jumped from the ground to his hand. Then, he raised his knife and slashed at Di Yunsheng's head.
"Bell. ”
With a sound, the long knife in Gong San's hand was broken into two.
The same is true of the knife in Su Wei's hand.
After he was knocked away by Gong Sanyi's palm, he was not seriously injured, but only fell into a coma for a short time.
When he awoke, he took up his sword again and cut down the wicked man.
Gong San was a little puzzled by Su Wei's abnormality, but if he couldn't kill with one blow, he would kill again.
So, he stretched out his right hand sharply and grabbed Su Wei's neck with one hand.
Then, his left palm pressed on Su Wei's abdomen.
