Chapter 104: The Past Is Endless (8)
As Nangong Xi expected, Nangong Shu had no precautions or suspicions about his "return to his hometown". On the contrary, Nangong Shu has great expectations for this. It's just that Nangong Shu didn't know that his cherished relatives and brothers were about to bring a catastrophe to his people!
Nangong Xi picked out three hundred elites from Situ Bi's army as the advance force. Three thousand men were selected as the main force of the army, which was to stand by on the shore first. Nangong Shu opened a secret passage to the bottom of the lake, so that Nangong Xi's family could enter the shrine and live for a while without having to practice the water repelling technique.
Nangong Xi took Princess Chengping, their daughter Han'er, and two maidservants, and took the lead in entering the secret passage. They were greeted by two female officials of the Nine Heavens Shrine - Liuhua and Duckweed. The two of them were born in the side branch of the Nangong family, they can be regarded as nobles, and they have been selected since they were young, and they are outstanding in terms of appearance and knowledge. The two of them have been waiting by Nangong Shu's side, and they can even participate in politics, and their status is extremely high. The two of them came in person, and it can also be seen that Nangong Shu attaches great importance to Nangong Xi.
Seeing Nangong Xi coming with his family, Liuhua and duckweed saluted respectfully, and their movements, expressions, and language were the same: "I've seen my cousin, my wife, and my little lady." ”
"The two female officers are polite." With a decent smile on his face, Nangong washed his face and motioned for them to get up, "The two of you come to greet each other, and you can't wash the honor!" ”
The two female officials looked neither humble nor arrogant, obviously accustomed to seeing the world. Cheng Ping followed Nangong Xi's side, secretly admiring in his heart, this Nine Heavens Divine Palace was really different. It's just two female officials, but they are more noble than many aristocratic ladies in the Great Zhou. The two of them bowed their heads, stood on both sides with indifferent expressions, and said, "I respectfully invite my cousin and wife into the palace." ”
It's this moment, Nangong Xi thought to herself!
He and Chengping glanced at each other. Striding towards the depths of the secret passage. Nangong Xi walked on the side close to Liuhua, and when he walked in front of Liuhua, he suddenly smiled at the quiet female official......
Liuhua raised his eyes and happened to see Nangong Xi's smile. Treacherous, cunning, as if a conspiracy had been achieved, with a little carried away. Liuhua's heart sank, and an ominous feeling hung over his heart. Her right hand slipped into the wide sleeve of her coat. Three fingers pinched the trick. Just in case.
However, Nangong Xi noticed her small movements, and he sneered at Liuhua and said, "Liuhua female officer." Being too smart isn't necessarily a good thing! ”
Before Liuhua could react to the meaning of his words, Nangong Xi quickly exerted his strength! His movements were extremely fast, his fingers curled into claws, and he stretched out towards Liuhua's slender neck. Liuhua was shocked. The formula comes from the mouth. She stretched out her right hand, driven by the magic. An air sword poured out from her fingertips, straight to the palace. It's just that the difference in strength between the two is too great! Nangong Xi watched the qi sword stabbing at his eyebrows, and was unmoved. The middle finger of his right index finger gripped the air sword straight. Then with a hard pinch, the air sword was actually broken!
Liuhua saw that the blow missed, and the flower was discolored. But she has lost the lead. The murderous aura in Nangong Xi's eyes had been undoubtedly revealed, and he directly choked Liuhua's neck.
Liuhua struggled desperately. I want to fight hard: "Rebel, rebel!" Let go, let go of my ......"
Hearing Liuhua's cry for help, duckweed wanted to rush over to save her. However, she had just made a move when she was noticed by the maid on the side. The inconspicuous maid who was originally standing next to Nangong Xi is also a powerful character! She moved extremely fast, and she got entangled in duckweed at once. Duckweed can't, just want to solve this maid quickly and do her best to rescue Liuhua.
Nangong Xi increased his strength and lifted the Liuhua against the stone wall of the secret passage. Liuhua only felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to breathe, and she struggled desperately, but she was not Nangong Xi's opponent at all. Liuhua's face turned purple, her eyeballs began to bulge outward, and she cursed viciously: "Rebel, traitor, you ...... Come to a sticky end! ”
Nangong choked her neck and said indifferently, "Oh, is it? Even if I don't die, it will be a long time later. But right now, Liuhua female officer, you can't live now. With that, he slammed it hard. only heard the sound of "pop", Liuhua's head tilted to one side, obviously unable to live.
On one side, duckweed was still entangled with the maid. The maid seemed to treat her as an interesting plaything, like a cat and mouse, and did not directly take her life, but kept teasing and torturing her. Seeing Liuhua paralyzed on the ground, the green tendons on his face burst out, the death was hideous, the duckweed was stunned, and he lost his mind for a while, and was noticed by the opponent.
The maid saw that Nangong Xi had solved the Liuhua, so she didn't continue to entangle. The twin knives in her hands danced rapidly, and the whole person quickly and sensitively resembled a ghost. Duckweed only felt that the figure in front of her was shaking, but she couldn't see it at all. The next moment, a thin knife mark crossed her neck, and fine beads of blood oozed out. Duckweed reached out and wiped her neck, staring at the red blood on her hand in amazement, and before she could even notice the pain, she fell to the ground.
"It's a good sign that the situation is like a bamboo." Nangong Xi looked at the two dead female officials with a smile, as if she was looking at the two ants that were inadvertently pinched to death. He turned back to Chengping and said, "The princess will take Han'er to the shore and wait first." After a while, I will really fight with the Divine Palace, and I am afraid that the dark arrow will be ruthless and hurt your mother and daughter. ”
Chengping always wears gorgeous clothes, exquisite makeup, and noble look. She let go of the hand of Helpless Han'er's eyes, and nodded at Nangong Xi: "Be careful, donkey, we are waiting for you on the shore to return triumphantly." With that, she took Han'er's hand and walked out of the secret passage nobly and indifferently. On the shore, there are people who receive and protect them.
Looking at the backs of one big and one small gradually moving away, Nangong Xi's eyes showed a look of appreciation. Undoubtedly, Chengping is a woman of courage and foresight. Although she is arrogant, she is also brave and resourceful. At such a moment, which may be life and death, it is really not something that ordinary women can do to be so calm and not burden Nangong Xi. If it is changed to a reading basket, I am afraid that at this time it will already be teary-eyed, and I will tell you a thousand times.
Seeing that his wife and daughter had left safely, Nangong washed his life, and the entire elite army of three hundred people was divided into two groups, one hundred of them stayed behind to meet the troops outside, so that they could enter along the way, and the other two hundred people began to march towards the interior of the shrine. Every time he took a step forward, Nangong Xi felt a little more excited and proud in his heart. Nangong Shu, even if you never dreamed, I would take all the qiē you easily possessed from you today, including your wealth, your status, and your wife! (To be continued) R640
