Chapter Seventy-Four: The Bandits Enter the City
The sky has just turned white, the blood and gas above the Jade Dragon Mountain have not been dissipated, a burst of smoke has blown in the south, the blood and gas are rushing to the sky, and the dark clouds are dense, covering a bright light in the sky in an instant, the sky and the earth are dim, the whole Shu earthquake is deafening, the horse's hooves are splashing, and the screams are desolate.
Zhen Yue was originally drowsy, the slight vibration of the ground made her like a frightened little beast, and she was sleepy in an instant, she quickly ran out of the east courtyard, and saw the owner of the workshop leading a team of people and horses to leave the Xuanling Gate like gunsmoke.
The smoke in the distant south carried a strong smell of blood, and all the crows in the sky spread their wings away, that place was the direction of Ye Ancheng, she smelled a strong uneasiness, and then quickly walked towards the Broken Moon Courtyard.
Qilin Fang suffered a blow, although it is not serious, but it also needs a strong rectification, the night has just passed, but I didn't see the two elders sitting in Qilin Fang, only the shadow guards who are usually there patrol around, her sensitivity has always been very accurate, and the uneasiness in her heart quickly rose.
Before Qiu Sheng had time to freshen up and change his clothes, he received an urgent letter from Ye Ancheng, and hurriedly deployed the Broken Moon Courtyard.
"Childe, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go out now, it's very likely that your identity will be exposed, you should stay in the Broken Moon Courtyard." Akon grabbed Qiu Sheng's reins.
"Let it go! The samurai who had just arrived weren't very peaceful, and I couldn't let them spoil my business. Qiu Sheng said in a deep voice, and suddenly a subtle sound came, like a light step in the soft grass, and the man's warm eyes were murderous in an instant.
With a whoosh, the knife shot sharply and sank into the grass, but there was no sound of flesh and blood.
"Hmph, it's me."
A cold voice sounded, like a wisp of biting cold in the volcano, and then out of the grass came a woman in a white robe and green edges, beautiful as a lotus, with an outstanding posture and an indifferent face, but there was a raging fire in her eyes, as if she was about to burn the man opposite.
"Satsuki?" The man dismounted, and his voice was surprised and then hesitant.
"Where are you going? Is something happening in Ye'an City? When Zhen Yue saw him leading the horse, she knew that he was going out of the Qilin Fang.
After a night of tossing, he knew that her heart must be disappointed and angry with him, trusting them to falter, at this time, he no longer hid anything, and said in a deep voice: "Guan Rixi's bandits led 20,000 horses and horses into Ye'an City, burning and looting all the way, as if entering a no-man's land, now I must rush to Jiuyou Street." ”
Zhen Yue shuddered, and the bloody picture immediately appeared in her mind, and said, "It's so sudden? Haven't your men transported the information out of the city yet? ”
"The Death Squad has been searching outside, my people are limited in their movements, and now they are ready to leave Ye'an City by the river, but I still have a military army in the newly opened backyard of the Wei Absolute Residence, these people are still unstable, I am worried that something will go wrong."
"You have an army in Ye'an!" Zhen Yue was surprised.
"Yesterday, all forty dead soldiers died, I naturally had to prepare the second batch with foresight, there are 50,000 horses in the Praetorian Guard and Iron Cavalry Battalion in the Imperial City of Ye'an City, and they can't stop the bandits who have not undergone orthodox training, don't you think it's strange and suspicious!" Qiu Sheng narrowed his elite eyes, and his handsome body looked even more wise and sharp.
Zhen Yue frowned and was shocked: "Someone behind them let them into the city, even the Praetorian Guards were controlled, and there are only Qilin Fang people with such ability in Shu State, but why did he do this?" "Obviously, two hours ago, the man was still fighting with her in her boudoir, and there was no sign of bloodbathing Ye An.
"I don't know, if it's for intelligence, I won't let him make such a big move, I guess there are other purposes, now I have to rush to Bianhe to live with Wei, I can't let them all be destroyed." Qiu Sheng had already jumped on his horse as he spoke.
"Wait!" Zhen Yue grabbed him and said awe-inspiringly: "I'll go to Bianhe, you go to taste the extinction, and we'll go our separate ways." ”
"You ......." Qiu Sheng probably didn't expect her to help, after all, there were still very serious problems between them that had not been resolved, and the pain in his heart was sour.
"What nonsense! The account between us must be settled slowly, and when the matter is settled, I will definitely not let you go. Zhen Yue snorted and gritted her teeth.
"Give." Time was pressing, Qiu Sheng didn't twist, and handed the jade on his waist to Zhen Yue, "The person who transports intelligence in Bianhe, when you see this jade pendant, you will naturally know your identity." ”
The jade pendant is crystal colored, crystal clear, bright as a bright glow, it is a piece of high-quality streamer glass jade, the jade quality is rare, the reverse side is engraved with a double dragon figure, she didn't seem to have seen him wear a jade pendant before, and she didn't think much about it at this time, put away the jade pendant, and walked away.
"Satsuki." The man called softly, "Be careful. ”
She looked back, and the man was standing on an all-black horse, his body was dignified, his face was like a crown of jade, and his clear eyes were as gentle as water.
"Well, you have to be careful, too." The indifference of her voice softened, and then she faded away.
The clouds were thick, the thunder roared, a rainstorm was coming in a blink of an eye, the air was humid, with a heavy blood gas, and the cold wind was even more bitter than the cold winter.
On the long path, a horse with all the black galloped wildly, the person on the horseback whipped the horse's tail, the horse galloped like lightning, the brown robe showed the embroidery of the green edge of the white robe from time to time, the hat on the top of the head seemed a little large, covering most of her face, the rain was like a long whip pumping to her cheeks from time to time, forming a trail of ravines, and a pair of pink lips were tightly pursed.
Before the horse stepped on the Nine Shadows Street, he saw the gate of the imperial capital open widely, and the boundless Nine Shadows Main Road was full of blood-stained horses' hooves, and the deafening sound of slashing and killing resounded in the sky, and the sky was thundering and rolling, which was even more terrifying.
Zhen Yue pulled out the short sword at his waist, jumped away, and through the rain curtain, it was scarlet, and all the reckless men dressed in brown clothes laughed wildly, and their hands rose and fell, cutting down the people on the street one by one.
High-rise buildings are next to each other, the prosperity and splendid scenery have long been in ruins, the teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the street have all been swept clean by these bandits, and the Shu Kingdom has completely collapsed in the perennial backlog of public grievances, and even some people have joined the bandits, and they have long lost their usual peace, and all of them took their own knives all the way into the house to rob them.
The evil factor in their hearts completely broke out, and under the leadership of the bandits, they were like bamboos, all the way to the bloody rain, the main street of the Nine Shadows had already become a hell of flames, the heavy rain was majestic, and the pungent blood gas was washed all the way, the severed arms and stumps were splashed everywhere, and the screams of women and children came and went.
The squad of 100 people is completely different from the chaotic and bloody bandits, they are all neat and neat, this is the cooperation of perennial training, they search all the way from house to house, as long as the limbs are steady, the eyes are sharp, will become their corpses, they seem to be organized and purposeful to kill these people, the place they pass is even bloodier.
