Chapter 12: The Assassination Failed Enemy Appears
Under the mimic spell of Li Ziqiu, he silently crossed the two mansions, and the guards in the two mansions had already slashed their crossbows and bows ready. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info waited for Li Ziqiu to arrive at the scene of the fight, and saw two figures fleeing from the scene of the fight one after another, a person in front of him was holding a huge weapon, and there seemed to be a person on his back.
Li Ziqiu had no intention of chasing the two who escaped, and when he came to the scene of the fight, there were three people in the courtyard surrounded by a group of people, and their bodies were already full of crossbow arrows, and they were still fighting until they were cut into several pieces. The ground was full of corpses, and the people in the courtyard were all wearing standard armor and Qianniuwei's costume, and Li Ziqiu still knew him.
The whole courtyard was filled with a thick bloody atmosphere, and when the fight in the courtyard was over, the door of the main house opened, and a fat man walked out surrounded by several people who looked like military generals. Outside the courtyard, guards in leather armor also poured in, and at first glance it was the family's own courtyard.
Li Ziqiu walked towards the fat man, and he saw a person dressed in Guangming Kai among the guards walking over, it seemed that he wanted to report on the battle situation. The battle just now must have been very fierce, and it didn't take much effort from the time I heard the sound to the time I rushed over, and there was already a river of blood here.
The general wearing Guangming Kai bowed to the fat man, "Master Di, there are nine assassins, seven have been killed, two have escaped, and General Dugu has chased down." The fat man turned a blind eye to the Shura field in front of him and nodded, "Captain Xue!" Clean up the scene now! Send someone to track down, activate all the agents to follow the clues left by General Dugu, and be sure to arrest the assassin! ”。 Captain Xue responded loudly: "Yes."
Li Ziqiu saw that the fat man was called Master Di, and guessed that this person might be Di Renjie, and he just knew yesterday that he was the person in charge of Chang'an, so the army that appeared here was easy to explain. It seems that the Turks launched an assassination operation tonight, but unfortunately they were ambushed by Di Renjie and almost wiped out, but I don't know who these dead soldiers who are not afraid of death are here to assassinate.
Seeing Di Renjie walking towards the front yard with the guards, Li Ziqiu followed. The guards who came over just now followed Di Renjie to the front, and the scene of the fight was left to Qianniuwei's people. The front yard was already brightly lit, and the house was full of guards, and there were also on the roof, with crossbows in their hands.
Di Renjie did not go to the main room, but went to a side room, and when he waved his hand when he entered the door, the guards stayed outside. Li Ziqiu followed unceremoniously. There is only one bed in the room, there is an old man lying on the bed, and a middle-aged man is sitting next to the bed. ”。
Di Renjie returned the salute, "Master Pei, you're polite, General Pei, I have something to ask you about next!" The old man on the bed nodded effortlessly. Di Renjie said: "Although I laid a net, I didn't expect to let the two leaders run away, the leader is a woman, using an iron pipa as a weapon, and another one, with a heavy body, with a phoenix wings gilded boring, the power is infinite, just ran away, General Dugu has already gone to chase." Several other people are also brave and abnormal, and the crossbow arrows hit their bodies as if they were nothing, and they were not killed until they were cut into several pieces, what does General Pei know? ”。
When Li Ziqiu heard this, his heart was like turning over the river and the sea, wasn't this female assassin his father-killing enemy? Suppress your anger and keep listening. The weakened old man lying on the bed said in a very low voice: "The woman with the iron pipa is a Turkic Khan, called Murong Hua. That powerful person is the guardian of the Turkic Great Wizard, those who are not afraid of death may have been used by the Turkic Great Wizard to perform witchcraft, I heard some legends of the Great Wizard when I was in the Western Regions, but I haven't seen it! ”。
Di Renjie asked again, "What legend?" The old man paused for a while before saying, "Legend has it that the great wizard can enslave ghosts, and the soldiers whose souls are controlled by him are not only infinitely powerful, but also not afraid of life and death, not afraid of pain, and very brave!" ”。 The old man closed his eyes very tiredly. The middle-aged man stood up and accompanied Di Renzhuo, and a maid came in from outside to guard the old man's side.
Li Ziqiu had already determined that this female assassin was undoubtedly his enemy, Murong Hua. It's just that the speed of the three of them just now was too fast, and they didn't know where they were running at this time, Li Ziqiu continued to follow Di Renjie, he believed that Di Renjie must have a way to find them, after all, General Dugu, who was following him now, was their person.
The middle-aged man accompanied Di Renjie to the main house, the two sat down, and the middle-aged man said: "Thank you, Lord Di, if it weren't for Lord Di to transfer Qianniuwei and invite General Dugu to sit in charge, my Pei family will definitely be more auspicious tonight" Saying that, he was about to get up and thank him, Di Renjie hurriedly stopped him. "Brother Pei is serious, it is my duty to protect Chang'an. I have not been able to find out the whereabouts of the assassin, I guessed that the enemy has some extraordinary means, so I arranged the masters of the Dao Sect and the masters of Qin Tianjian in the palace and other important ministers who may be assassinated, I originally wanted to ask the Buddhist monks to help, but unfortunately they didn't believe the words of the next, so they had to ask the Sword Demon Dugu General to help, who knows or underestimated the opponent! It was my negligence that allowed the two of them to escape! ”。
The middle-aged man said, "These two people have been exposed, I believe that Lord Di will soon be able to arrest the criminals, and when the time comes, I will definitely play the emperor in the next and ask for credit for Lord Di!" ”。 Di Renjie stood up and said, "Don't dare, there are still things to deal with in the future, so I will leave!" ”。
Li Ziqiu had been following Di Renjie, and he believed that Di Renjie must have a way to track down Murong Hua and them. Qianniuwei had already assembled, and Captain Xue came over to report to Di Renjie. Di Renjie waved his hand, "Go back to the mansion!" Someone led the horse, Di Renjie turned over the horse, and took Qianniuwei towards the Chang'an Mansion.
Li Ziqiu did not continue to follow Di Renjie, and returned to Rongyue's small building, the sky outside was already bright, the people in Cheng's Mansion had already begun to get up, and the maid in the backyard also began to be busy in the courtyard, Li Ziqiu watched Rongyue's window open, and floated in with the wind. Rongyue had already gotten up and walked around the house, seemingly worried about Ziqiu.
Ziqiu closed the window, Rongyue turned her head to stare at the window, Li Ziqiu showed her figure, Rongyue sighed, "Scared me to death, guessed it was you!" ”。 Li Ziqiu took out the Qiankun bag from his arms and handed it to Rong Yue, "I forgot to give you this just now, I'll teach you how to use it!" Rongyue's divine power is now no lower than Li Ziqiu's, and she quickly mastered the use of the Qiankun bag.
Looking at the things taken out of the Qiankun bag, Rongyue asked, "You gave it to me, what should you do?" Li Ziqiu smiled and took out his jade pendant, left the old ginseng and a few spirit stones to Rongyue, took the treasure knife and said, "You should still use this knife in the future, your axe is too powerful, try to use it less in the future." ", and then received everything else to the jade pendant, "My jade pendant also has a storage function, I can use this!" ”。 Seeing Rongyue excitedly put all her things into the Qiankun bag, Li Ziqiu said, "I'm leaving, I may have to go to live with my second sister for a while, her house is outside the city, so I won't come to see it." ”。
Rongyue said: "My brother won't stay here for long, he may return to his hometown in a few days, and I can't say I'm going to find you now, what should I do?" ”。 Li Ziqiu pondered for a while, "If your brother goes back, you will go back first, and I will almost go back when the time comes, and I will go to your house to find you after I go back, okay!" ”。 Rongyue suddenly lowered her head, and Nuo Nuo said: "Didn't you say, say ,,,,,", "What did you say?" "Say you're going to propose?" After Rong Yue finished speaking, she turned around with a flushed face.
Li Ziqiu hugged Rongyue from behind, "I'll tell my mother when I go back this time, let her find someone to go to your house to propose, you can wait for me with peace of mind!" ”。 Rongyue nodded. Li Ziqiu let go of the melting moon, pinched the trick, hid the imitation, slipped out of the Cheng Mansion, and headed towards the Chang'an Mansion.
Di Renjie still didn't rest, when Li Ziqiu arrived at the mansion, Di Renjie was arranging official business in the public hall, an old nun, and a Taoist priest with fairy wind bones, sitting on a row of Taishi chairs on the left. To Li Ziqiu's surprise, Wang Zhenwei and Situ Ruyan stood behind the old nun, and Kongkonger stood behind the old Taoist. Both the old Taoist and the old nun carried the peachwood sword on their backs. Li Ziqiu just heard Di Renjie's last sentence, "Please, two masters!" ”。
The old nun and the old Taoist priest were very good, and they made a mockery of Di Renjie and walked towards the outside of the mansion. Li Ziqiu estimated that he must have gone after Murong Hua and them, and he followed behind them at the moment. At the moment of leaving the mansion, the old Taoist priest suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Li Ziqiu, Li Ziqiu instantly hid behind the wall, and was taken aback, this old Taoist priest has some ability, maybe he felt something.
After a few people left the palace, someone led the horse, Li Ziqiu didn't dare to follow too close, and saw a few people heading towards the east city gate, so he detoured out of the city in advance and waited at the city gate. Sure enough, it didn't take long for several people to ride towards the city gate.
Li Ziqiu shouted at Kongkong'er, "Kongkong'er, wait!" Several people looked at Li Ziqiu, and Wang Zhenwei said, "Li Ziqiu, why are you here?" ”。 Several people looked at Li Ziqiu suspiciously. Li Ziqiu hugged his fists and saluted everyone, knowing what a few people were going to do, he wanted to do his part, and asked the two masters to allow him to follow around! ”。
Wang Zhenwei was just about to speak, but was stopped by the old nun, and Kongkonger whispered a few words beside Lao Dao, who looked at Li Ziqiu, "Who are you?" How do you know what we're going to do? ”。 Li Ziqiu said: "I am a friend of Mr. Wang for many years, and I have no malicious intentions, I heard Master Di's words in the mansion just now, so I know!" ”。
The old nun glanced at Wang Zhenwei, and Wang Zhenwei said: "He is indeed my friend, not a bad person!" The old nun said, "Zhenwei, you and Ruyan go back, and leave the horse to this son!" When the boss saw the old nun speak, he stopped talking. Situ Ruyan was just about to speak, but the old nun said, "Go back, don't say more, the people you deal with this time are not something that the two of you can deal with, and it will be a burden to follow, let's go."
The old nun shook the reins and rushed out first. Li Ziqiu was not polite, rode Wang Zhenwei's horse, gave Wang Zhenwei and Situ Ruyan a fist salute, "Thank you", and then hit the horse and chased the three people in front.
