Chapter 1836: Rescue, Serial Assassination! (Above)
Grand Commander? Big...... Archon, no! Oh no! General Dugu, who entered the city yesterday, was attacked by a group of black-clothed masked assassins in the South Alley~! ”
The secret guard of the Wang family, who ran out from the place where Duguxin and the black-clothed assassins were fighting fiercely, had just passed through the two people's houses, and met Wang Chengwu, who was escorting Zhu Xisheng and Kang Changan to return to the ancestral house of the Wang family.
"What? Are you saying that someone assassinated General Dugu in the city~? ”
When Wang Chengwu heard this, his face was shocked, and he hurriedly waved his hand to signal the rear team to stop, then looked at the secret guard who reported the news, and asked in a deep voice.
The dark guard panted and said, "Yes! Archon! There are more than 20 people on the other side, and there is only one General Dugu, when his subordinates come over, General Dugu seems to be about to be unable to hold on, should we go ......"
"Hu Daliang, Bai Qing, you take ten brothers to bring Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan back to the ancestral house, and the rest will come with me~!"
Before the guard could finish speaking, Wang Chengwu shouted and ordered left and right.
"Yes! Grand Commander~! ”
A round-faced man with a beard, as well as Bai Qing, hurriedly responded together.
After that, they called ten secret guards of the Wang family and took Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan towards the direction of the Wang family's ancestral house.
Wang Chengwu waved his hand, and the remaining dozen or so Wang family secret guards followed him, and under the leadership of the previous secret guard, they galloped away in the direction of the battle between Dugu Xin and the man in black.
As Wang Yu's direct confidant, Wang Chengwu certainly understands Wang Yu's attitude towards the court and the royal family, and he also knows why the power of the bright and dark sides of the Wang family yesterday will pour out to find two businessmen who have nothing to do with the Wang family, it is precisely because of this that the moment he heard that Duguxin was assassinated, Wang Chengwu almost did not hesitate to take people to the rescue!
Let's not mention that all the forces of the Wang family were dispatched yesterday mainly because Dugu Xin's younger brother Dugu Feiying personally came to Wang Yu to ask for help, let's just say that now the relationship between the Wang family and the imperial court, Wang Yu could not sit back and watch the palace forbidden army being assassinated by a group of unidentified people in Taiyuan City, the base camp of the Wang family! If Dugu Xin really had an accident in Taiyuan City in this way, then the Wang family and the official mansion in Taiyuan City would usher in endless trouble!
Therefore, there is no need to tell Wang Yu about this matter, Wang Chengwu can guess Wang Yu's attitude! The most important thing is that in the current situation, there is no time for him to go back to the ancestral house to explain the situation to Wang Yuyu!
………………………………
On the other side, the post house.
After Li Tai returned, he immediately gathered all the people of the academy and informed the teachers and students of the academy in detail everything he had seen on Yongsan in the morning and his decision to locate the telegraph relay station at Longshan Tongzi Temple.
At that moment, Li Tai took the members of the fifth and sixth groups, took the measuring tools, and prepared to go up the mountain to conduct field surveys.
Out of the door of the post house, Li Tai didn't see Dugu Xin, there were only Dugu Feiying and the forbidden army guarding at the door, Li Tai couldn't help frowning, and stepped forward to ask Dugu Feiying: "General Feiying, where is General Duguxin?" Didn't he come back with the king? ”
Regarding the matter of Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan, Dugu Xin had already roughly told Li Tai before entering the city yesterday, so Dugu Feiying had nothing to hide at the moment, but said truthfully: "Back to His Highness, I just received the news that the Wang family's secret guards found the whereabouts of Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan in Shuorenfang in the southeast of the city, and were about to go to arrest them. I guess I'll be back in a while! ”
"Zhu Xisheng? Kang Changan? This king heard that the Wang family searched for these two people for nearly a whole day yesterday, but they did not find any trace of them, why did they suddenly find them today? ”
Hearing this, Li Tai frowned, and said to himself suspiciously.
Now that the situation in Taiyuan City is treacherous, Li Tai has also become suspicious, he subconsciously feels that something is wrong with this matter, and as for what is wrong, he can't say it for a while.
Dugu Feiying's ears are keen, and he can naturally hear Li Tai's self-talk, but he can only pretend not to hear it, because he can't answer this question!
"You just said that General Duguxin went alone?"
Suddenly, Li Tai raised his voice and asked Dugu Feiying.
There was a faint nervousness in his expression!
Dugu Xin is the strongest combat force in this forbidden army, and he is also the "brain" of this forbidden army, if something happens to him, it is almost impossible for the people of the academy to complete the task and return to the academy safely! Therefore, it is a matter of Duguxin's safety, and Li Tai is not nervous!
Dugu Feiying chuckled lightly and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, my brother is now a grandmaster-level master, and there is no small person in this Taiyuan City who can hurt him!" ”
As Dugu Xin's younger brother, Dugu Feiying certainly has full confidence in Dugu Xin's personal strength.
And that's exactly what happened. As a master of the Grandmaster Realm, Dugu Xin also has peerless swordsmanship such as the Lonely Wind Sword Technique and the Dugu Nine Swords, and his comprehensive strength is far beyond that of ordinary martial artists in the early stage of the Grandmaster, unless he encounters the "old monster" in the late stage of the Grandmaster, otherwise it is difficult for Dugu Xin to be injured at all!
And the "old monsters" in the later stage of the grandmaster, there are only a few in the whole world? How could it be so coincidental that it happened to be in Taiyuan City? And just want to find trouble with Dugu Xin?
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Dugu Feiying's sentence "There is no small thing that can hurt him in this Taiyuan City"!
But Dugu Feiying didn't expect that a master who specializes in assassination and uses all kinds of means is more difficult than ordinary masters in the late stage of the grandmaster.
Hearing Dugu Feiying say this, Li Tai couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart, and after thinking about it, he said: "In that case, then General Feiying, you can take someone to Longshan with us!" ”
In the past, Li Tai never brought a guard when he went out, and the guard had to follow, and he sometimes lost his temper and told the guard to get out of the way and not follow him. Now he took the initiative to ask Dugu Xin to lead a team of forbidden troops to follow him, and the huge change in attitude before and after was precisely because Li Tai realized the responsibility on his shoulders!
"The last general obeys!"
Dugu Feiying's expression was solemn, and he clenched his fists and said.
………………………………
South of Taiyuan City.
The battle on Dugu Xin's side was coming to an end at this time, and Dugu Xin relied on his tenacious willpower and sense of survival, desperately trying to keep himself awake, and then mobilized the true qi in his body to dodge the enemy's attack with all his might. But the medicine is too strong, the number of enemies is too large, and the attack methods are too numerous, even though the Dugu family's unique footwork is exquisite, it is still difficult for Dugu Xin to be alone in this battle!
From the departure of the Wang family's secret guard who reported the news, it is only half a cup of tea now, Dugu Xin has suffered a sword wound and two hidden weapon scratches on his body, although these injuries have not hurt the vital parts, but the other party's blades and hidden weapons seem to be smeared with poison, Dugu Xin can feel that the three parts of his injury are gradually losing consciousness, and the parts of the unconscious are gradually expanding, which means that the toxin is spreading in his body!
He had to use his hands to block the meridians of his wound and slow down the spread of the toxin, but in this way, his reaction speed was bound to be affected. Since his family knows his own affairs, Dugu knows in his confidence that he can only last another half a cup of tea at most, if there are no reinforcements coming, he will definitely die today!
In the middle, Dugu Xin didn't think about escaping, but while the other party's people were attacking, they were also secretly occupying each exit, and it was impossible for him to escape from a certain exit unimpeded, as long as the person at that exit stopped him for a moment, the other people would rush over and mercilessly slash at him!
At this moment, Dugu Xin secretly regretted that he was too careless, before he kept telling Li Tai that Taiyuan City was not peaceful, and he had to pay attention to safety and go out with guards, but it was his turn, not only did he go out without any guards, but he didn't even bring the fireworks that transmitted the distress signal, otherwise he wouldn't be so isolated and desperate now!
The reason for this is that his own strong martial arts strength made Dugu Xin relax his vigilance. There is a saying that if you are killed, you will be able to punch, and if you drown, you will be able to water, and people are likely to be in trouble in what they are good at, because they know martial arts, they don't care about competing with others, and then they are killed. Because I knew how to swim, I thought it was okay to swim deeper, and then I drowned!
Duguxin is now in a desperate situation, and that's for this reason!
At the end of the alley, there were three or three bold people gathered, lying on the wall, secretly paying attention to the fight here, although Dugu Xin was a little embarrassed at the moment, but there were still people who recognized him, but no one dared to step forward to intervene, because these black-clothed masked people were obviously not good at stubble, and the people did not know martial arts, even if they came up, it was estimated that they would be killed by the black-clothed people in an instant!
"What are these men in black coming from? Dare to openly commit murder in Taiyuan City! ”
"Isn't this General Dugu who came from Chang'an yesterday? I heard that he is the commander of the forbidden army of the Imperial Palace! ”
"Huh? It does look a little like that! These black-clothed people dared to attack the commander of the forbidden army, but they reversed, go and report to the official! ”
"Huh! Someone has already gone to report to the official just now, and it is estimated that the street patrol will come over in a while! These vicious assassins will not escape! ”
"But this Dugu general doesn't seem to be able to last long!"
The people watched from afar at the two sides of the battle, some ran to report to the official, and some were secretly anxious in their hearts, but they were helpless.
But everyone's hearts are on Duguxin's side.
After all, Taiyuan City is the land of Longxing, now the Tang Haiqing River Banquet, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the national strength is thriving, the people of Taiyuan City still have a very strong sense of identity with the imperial court, and when they see someone assassinating the imperial court generals on the street, the people will naturally inevitably be filled with righteous indignation!
"Humph! I advise you not to resist fearlessly, maybe I can leave a whole corpse for you! ”
In the field, the leader of the men in black dodged, and after leaving a wound on Dugu Xin's back with his long sword again, he smiled coldly at Dugu Xin.
"Phew! I am the commander of the Tang Forbidden Army, even if I die, I can only die standing up! You are a dignified Han person, who does not serve the country, but goes to be a lackey of the Turks, which is a shame on your ancestors! ”
Dugu Xin wanted to close his eyes at this time, the reason why he was still standing here and fighting against these black-clothed people was completely because he was struggling to support it with his tenacious willpower, in addition, every time there was an extra wound on his body, the hot pain in the injured part at the beginning would also make him sober up a little, but this effect could only last for a while, because as time passed, the toxin took effect, and the injured part of him would become numb and unconscious! At this time, the black-clothed leader slashed a sword on his back, Dugu Xin was a little refreshed, he used the long sword in his hand to support his body, looked at the black-clothed leader, and scolded angrily.
His angry rebuke spread throughout the streets and alleys, and those people who were watching from a distance saw that Dugu Xin was seriously injured, but he still arrogantly reprimanded the enemy chieftain, and their hearts couldn't help but flash a trace of sadness at the end of the hero!
"You, looking for death~!"
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the leader of the men in black, his body moved, and the next moment he appeared three feet in front of Dugu Xin with a long sword, before he was Dugu Xin's back or side to attack, that was out of his assassin's "professional habits", but now Dugu Xin is on the verge of death, he naturally does not need to engage in a sneak attack from behind or sideways, he wants to completely kill this guy who spoke wild words to himself from the front!
This is a nirvana move, the blazing true qi on the long sword pierced the air, and before he reached Dugu Xin, Dugu Xin felt that his whole person had been locked and could not move, and the mortal sword of the leader of the man in black came directly towards his neck!
This is mainly because he is seriously injured now, and his body is highly poisonous, otherwise he is definitely sure to dodge this sword of the leader of the men in black!
But there is no if in this world, Dugu Xin knows very well, with his current physical condition, even if he tries his best, he can't dodge this killing sword, but even so, he doesn't plan to sit still, so he saw that he laboriously lifted the long sword in his hand, and began to unleash a move Dugu Nine Swords-Breaking Sword Style.
With the subtlety of the Dugu Nine Swords-Breaking Sword Style, there is no difficulty at all in cracking the unfancy sword of the leader of the black-clothed people, but with Dugu Xin's current state, he can't even exert one-tenth of the power of the Dugu Nine Swords-Breaking Sword Style, how can he resist this sword?
But as he said before, he is the commander of the Tang Forbidden Army, even if he dies, he can only die standing up! He's going to fight until the last moment! It is impossible for him to give in to a villain who hides his head and betrays his ancestors for glory!
The long sword of the leader of the man in black is getting closer and closer to Dugu Xin's neck, and the sword momentum in Dugu Xin's hand has also been condensed, but it is a useless flower, as long as the long sword of the man in black touches, his sword momentum will instantly collapse, and he himself will be in a different place!
Dugu Xin sighed in his heart, and it seemed that he was going to confess here today!
Just as the two swords were about to intersect, an angry rebuke came from the alley in the north: "Stop! Who is the rat generation, dare to commit murder in Taiyuan City~! ”
Suddenly, the leader of the men in black couldn't help but pause, but then, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and the long sword in his hand stabbed towards Dugu Xin at a faster speed!
He knew that Dugu Xin's reinforcements were coming, but he wanted to kill Dugu Xin before the other party's reinforcements arrived!
"Humph! You dare! ”
The owner of the voice behind the leader of the man in black let out a loud shout again, but the voice was getting closer and closer, and then he saw a person rise from the horse and slash directly at the back of the leader of the man in black with a knife~!
