Chapter 117: Hibiscus Flower
Without waiting for the man in black to take a step, he saw that on the wall he had just climbed down, there were five men in black who were dressed the same as him, he vaguely noticed the abnormality, turned around and was stunned, looking at the cold momentum of the five men in black, obviously much higher than him, the strong murderous aura can only be revealed after the accumulation of slaughter, obviously more terrifying than him, a killer of the third and ninth ranks.
"Who are you"? As soon as he finished speaking, he only heard the faint sound of tiles on the eaves, and he turned his head suddenly, his face changed greatly, and he only felt his legs tremble involuntarily.
On the eaves stood ten men in black, holding long swords, showing the characteristics of decent killers all over their bodies, through the moonlight, he could still see those people unabashedly showing bloodthirsty killing intent, he swallowed hard, and the hand holding the dagger trembled with his legs.
In an instant, outside the wall in the southeast corner of the Lanxiang Pavilion, ten more people wearing crimson tights and wearing crimson masks climbed over the wall and entered, they were obviously hostile to the black-clothed people standing on the eaves and on the wall, and the short knives in their hands were slowly pressed in front of them, just waiting for the enemy to move, they would rush over.
The man in black who came first was dumbfounded, he never dreamed that tonight would be such a scene, if he had known, he would not have taken the woman's money at all, and in an instant, he only felt that his trouser legs were hot, and he didn't know that he had been incontinent, until a cool breeze blew and his legs were cold, and he didn't notice it.
With a plop, he fell to his knees, and begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "All heroes and heroes, I just collect money from people and eliminate disasters for others, please spare my life, I have a seventy-year-old mother, an eighty-year-old father, and a child waiting to be fed."
"Shut up, Lao Tzu doesn't care what your purpose is, if you dare to come, you must dare to bear the consequences", I saw that in the southeast corner, a man wearing a red mask, raised the short knife in his hand and pointed at him and snorted coldly, as soon as the words fell, the short knife in his hand struck towards the incontinence of the black-clothed man like life.
"Ding", before the short knife arrived, a long sword flew from the direction of the eaves in an instant, knocking the short knife to the ground, and at the same time, the long sword stabbed straight at the incontinent man in black.
"Ding Ding Ding", as soon as the long sword arrived next to the man in black, he saw three plum blossom needles glowing with cold light flying quickly on the opposite wall, knocking the long sword to the ground, and the three plum blossom needles sank into the body of the man in black in the blink of an eye, stabbing into his eyebrows, neck and heart respectively, the technique was steady and accurate, and it was very sharp.
The poor man in black died happily, only to feel a tingling pain, and rushed to Huangquan without waiting for a reaction.
Not to be outdone, more than a dozen people stabbed short knives and long swords in unison towards the man in black who fell to the ground, and in addition to the sound of wind in the air, followed by the sound of blades piercing into the flesh.
Pity the man in black, who is obviously dead, but his body still has to be treated like this.
However, this also blames himself, now Lanxiang Pavilion has been closely monitored by three groups of people, in addition to Nangong Ling's secret guard, which is the shadow of Nangong Yu, followed by the killer of the Cold Flow Cloud Demon Palace, the three groups of people have been standing still, but they didn't expect that his appearance today has become a stepping stone for paving, so that they can find a reason to appear and be able to appear in front of each other in a grand manner.
The ten black-clothed people standing on the eaves are the secret guards sent by Nangong Ling, and they will never reveal their identities without the master's killing order, and the leader can also see that the five black-clothed people on the opposite side are extraordinary, and they can knock down his long sword with only three plum blossom needles, which shows that the internal force is deep above him, he just looked at the person who shot the plum blossom needle from a distance, waved his hand, and led the other nine black-clothed people to flash quickly and disappear into the many attics of Shuifu.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency, but you are the ten demon killers in the Demon Palace"? Among the five black-clothed people opposite, a man with a majestic figure stood out, and he pointed to the ten red-masked men in the southeast corner with his hand and shouted coldly.
Among the red-masked people, there was also a person who walked out, only to see him snort lightly, without putting the five people in his eyes at all, his eyes unabashedly revealing a strong color of contempt, and sneered: "Nangong Yu's Xiaoxiao also dares to be presumptuous in front of the ten demons of my Demon Palace, he is really tired of it, but today I will leave you with your dog's life, and go back to sue Nangong Yu, the eldest husband acts above board, and those things that steal chickens and dogs are better to do less, and it is really beyond my power to eradicate my Demon Palace."
As soon as his words fell, he only heard the wind in his ears mixed with a few cold lights attacking him, he raised his hand slightly, with three plum blossom needles between his fingers, suddenly, he raised his backhand, and the plum blossom needles shot out again against the wind, "Nangong Yu will only use these means that can't be on the table, and the dog next to him is the same, hum, it's dirty to kill you, my knife is dirty, take advantage of tonight's uncle, I'm in a good mood, spare your dog's life, go back and report to your master."
Facing the majestic man in black who had just knocked down the plum blossom needle, he saw the Ten Demon Killers leap and disappear in place, the speed was so fast that he couldn't see clearly, he gritted his teeth, and the killing intent around him was even stronger, and he said coldly to the other four people behind him for a long time: "I'll go back to my life first, and after you clean up here, continue to stay here."
"Yes", the four of them jumped into the courtyard and dragged the corpse full of daggers and daggers away.
And he didn't leave immediately, looking at the house where Shui Lianyue lived with half-squinted black eyes, but he felt very sorry for her in his heart, he never thought that Shui Lianyue was not only related to Nangong Ling, but also involved with the people of the Demon Palace, if it weren't for the fact that the killer of the thirty-ninth rate made a stepping stone this time, made a start, and led to the appearance of the Ten Demon Killers of the Demon Palace, it would be impossible for him to know who sent the other wave of people.
After a long time, he sighed lightly, I am afraid that this time I will go back to my life, and the prince will no longer be able to tolerate this Shui family girl.
At this time, in the palace of King Yu, there is a cold atmosphere everywhere, only in Qiyunxuan, there is still a trace of warm smell, the yard is full of hibiscus flowers, but the clusters of flowers keep falling petals with the wind, and the hibiscus flowers bloom and fall in twilight, but every withering is for the next time to open more brilliantly.
Nangong Yu stood quietly in the corridor, looking at the withered hibiscus, a touch of sadness emerged in his heart, in fact, the hibiscus flower is not his favorite, but his mother, the most favorite flower of the hibiscus, he heard Aunt Yun often say that when the mother concubine was alive, she loved her father very much, and compared her love for her father to the hibiscus flower, tenacious and eternal, because she knew that as long as she persevered, one day, her father's heart could have her place.
It's a pity that on the day of the mother's death, the father was in the queen's bedroom, and the next day, even the mother's coffin ceremony, the father did not appear, this is the man the mother has loved all her life, heh.
The world only knows that the mother concubine passed away due to illness, but he knows that the real reason for the death of the mother concubine is all caused by the Empress Dowager Chu, in vain he remembered the appearance of the mother concubine in his childhood impression, obviously a beautiful woman in the city, but he ended up sick and haggard all day long, this qiē is caused by the Empress Dowager Chu, even if Aunt Yun treats him as if he is a biological child, but in the end it is not a biological child, how can the mother's love be compared?
