Chapter 68: The Prince of Tanguo
Immediately, the black-clothed man who was dormant at the foot of the Jade Dragon Mountain was like a ghost of hell, pouring out of the nest, and quickly beheaded the shadow guard who reported the news under the sword, but Elder Feng, who had been wandering in planning all the year round, had the foresight to send two teams of men and horses to inform the owner.
The first team was ambushed, and the shadow guards who followed closely behind them did not hesitate to fight at all, and went directly through the chaos and galloped towards the brightly lit Nine Shadows Main Street.
However, the horse's hooves just sounded in Changping Alley, and the ruthless black-clothed people quickly rushed around, killing the unsuspecting shadow guards in an instant, leaving no armor, the shadow guards never expected that Huang Que was behind, and they thought that they would not be ambushed again when they reached the main road of the Nine Shadows, but they didn't expect that these black-clothed people were so thoughtful that they were not afraid of alarming Ye'an's Praetorian Guards.
The streets of Changping Lane fell into a dead silence in an instant, the smell of blood spread, and the black-clothed man who led the team sent signal flares to the sky with his hands and feet, and with a snap, it was mixed with the fireworks in the sky, without arousing suspicion at all.
Zhen Yue was dragged all the way to the Hundred Corridors by Qiu Sheng, because most of the secret guards went to the northwest corner, it was extremely quiet here, and the corpses of the dark guards could be seen everywhere on the ground, all of them had bruised faces, black lips, poisoned!
"Little master, I just received the signal flare, and things are going well." The man dressed in green cloth strode over, not very old, about twenty years old, when he saw Zhen Yue behind Qiu Sheng, he was slightly stunned, but he didn't ask, as if he already knew who she was.
"Well, Yuanyun, the order goes down, time is pressing, and we must retreat." Qiu Sheng waved his hand, and several black-clothed people came out of the dark shadows, each carrying a few wooden boxes, which were full of information from various countries in previous years.
With a snort, a five-claw hook was thrown on the hundred-meter-high wall, and the man in black carried the wooden box without any delay and jumped over the wall with the five-claw hook.
The five-claw hook was once drawn by Zhen Yue on the drawings, and every time he went on an envoy mission with Qiu Sheng, he disliked that the tools of this era were too backward and inconvenient at all, so he drew a five-claw hook on the drawings, and he was very proud to explain to him at that time, at that time, his expression was just faint, but he didn't enter the imperial city, and he didn't need a five-claw hook, the five-claw hook is suitable for high walls, and it is not used in the mansions of ordinary high-ranking officials, but he didn't expect him to secretly make a five-claw hook, and the flame in Zhen Yue's heart is getting deeper and deeper.
And all the way to the Hundred Corridors, there are black-clothed people wielding knives to open the way, such a rigorous cooperation and combat can be imagined that it has been planned a long time ago, Zhen Yue opened Qiu Sheng's palm hard, and looked at him with sharp eyes, and the river and sea were turned inside.
"You ......." Qiu Sheng felt a pain in his heart, and before he could explain, the sound of hurried footsteps in the distance was getting closer and closer.
The person who came was in his forties, awe-inspiring, with a pair of eyes that seemed to hide countless sharp knives, as if to penetrate everyone, and his figure was slightly burly, and he knew that he had practiced martial arts all year round at a glance.
Zhen Yue saw that the man's eyes swept over, like a sharp edge, this look made her very familiar, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed, it was him! At that time, I met in a hurry in the backyard of Wei Jueju, and Ah Qiu said that it was the steward of the backyard at that time, and she knew early on that Ah Qiu was perfunctory to her, but at this time, the truth was in front of her, and it was heart-wrenching that she couldn't breathe.
"Little master, most of our people have been sacrificed, and we can't delay time, so let's retreat now." Chu Zhong was still holding a bloody knife in his hand, and there were some small wounds on his body.
"It's about to retreat, I'm afraid the front won't be able to support for long." Qiu Sheng looked at the fiery night sky in the distance, his eyes narrowed.
"Then the subordinate will go and let the brothers retreat now." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and was pulled by a powerful force, Chu Zhong turned his head and trembled in his heart, only to see Qiu Sheng's inky black eyes reflected with red light, and it actually exuded a piercing cold glow, like the cool air emanating from the bones.
Qiu Sheng said coldly: "We must retreat now!" They were originally going to sacrifice for the Tan Kingdom, we can't escape far with the remnants of the soldiers, we will only become the lost dogs of the Qilin Fang, if we are exposed, this operation will be a complete failure, there is no meaning! ”
"But ......." Chu Zhong, who was forty years old, was full of pain.
"No, if you want to save them, you won't be able to come back! Our plan is to steal information, and now that it has been completed, there is no reason to turn back, you have been galloping in the military camp for 20 years, and the stakes in this should not need me to remind you again, the chess pieces that should be thrown out should be merciless, and those who have achieved great things should be decided immediately. "It's all over the place.
Chu Zhong's body trembled a little, and finally sighed, and when he raised his head again, he had already recovered his whole body to prepare for battle, without seeing the previous kindness, and said to the group of black-clothed people: "All retreat according to the original plan." ”
"Yes!"
Qiu Sheng turned around, and saw that Zhen Yue's eyes were full of shattered shock, disappointment, and sadness, too many emotions made him have nowhere to hide, and he didn't plan to hide them anymore, there was no reason to turn back when things came to this point, he knew that she was indignant in her heart, not only because of concealment, but also because of the indistinguishable changes in him, he was still a little annoyed in his heart, and almost fought with her in Tianyi Pavilion, and now he couldn't stop palpitating in his heart when he thought about it.
"Satsuki ......." Qiu Sheng had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by her suppressed roar.
"Say no more! I don't want to hear anything right now! She grabbed the five-claw hook and was about to cross the wall, and she had to rush to the main street of Jiuyou according to the original plan, the time was urgent, and she was not allowed to make a fuss at this time, although she was angry in her heart, she did not let the anger drown her reason.
Qiu Sheng grabbed her, with a touch of pain in his heart, and sighed: "Xiaoyue, believe me." ”
Just one sentence made her heart like a knife, she did believe in him for six years, and indeed put a ruined heart into his hands, now when she heard this sentence, in addition to pain, she was more aggrieved and helpless, they obviously broke into Tianyi Pavilion half an hour ago, and trust seemed so strange to them.
Time is pressing, and they are not allowed to make more explanations, and in a thousand words, she can only turn it into one sentence: "Ah Qiu, I understand your hardship, after all, Su Sheng has borne too much, and I can't forgive your hardship, Prince Tanguo!" ”
Qiu Sheng trembled, his face was like a May day, ever-changing, and then a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and suddenly, he hugged the emaciated woman tightly in his arms, although she struggled desperately, she still couldn't break free from his infinitely powerful embrace.
His deep voice came from above his head: "Xiaoyue, I know you understand me, thank you for understanding me, when things settle down, you can punish me as much as you want." ”
Zhen Yue broke away from her embrace, and walked over the wall without looking back, the cold wind blew a strand of broken hair between her cheeks, and her beautiful face looked even haggard.
In an instant, all the black-clothed people in the Hundred Corridors left over the wall, and they left low-key from the mountain trails and trails of Jade Dragon Mountain with information from various countries, hiding their whereabouts along the way.
Zhen Yue's prancing horse whipped and hurried to the main street of Jiuyou, at this time, the Qilin Fang was full of blood, the fiery red of the sky had slowly faded, and some of the stuffy sky was becoming more and more breathless, and the black-clothed people who remained in the Qilin Fang were all killed, even if they intended to keep them alive, they all understood the rules, and they tacitly bit the poison sac between their teeth, and their heartfelt world can be learned, and it will also be recorded in the annals of the Tan Kingdom, but it is only a hurry.
