In this silent night, the bright moon was extraordinarily bright, reflecting this group of people who were fighting.

Qin Xiaoqin and Lin Wu heard Ye Chen's words, looked at each other and smiled, and rushed forward quickly with their knives, their hands up and down, one, two, three, four......

They brandished the long knives in their hands like crazy, just to fight their way out. In order to push away the little jade girl to dodge the Mo knife, Ye Chen was also stabbed in the right shoulder, but he still endured the severe pain and slashed forward. At this time, in their eyes, nothing but enemies are enemies. But the sky was not as good as people wanted, and the dozen or so people still standing opposite were well-trained and cooperated tacitly, no matter how they fought, they could never rush through the encirclement of the bloody knife gate. Ye Chen saw the direction of the blade, stepped in sideways, lowered his body, and dodged like a swimming fish avoiding a reef, and then returned with a knife. Seeing this, the black-clothed leader rushed towards Ye Chen, slashing out the Mo knife from top to bottom, Ye Chen saw the situation and blocked the horizontal knife, who knew that the black-clothed leader was just a false move, the knife light suddenly turned, and swept towards Ye Chen's abdomen! Ye Chen saw that he was about to be stabbed in the abdomen but couldn't stop it, at this time, Qin Xiaoqin's eyes were quick, and he directly knocked the man in black to the ground with his body, saving Ye Chen. Ye Chen reacted quickly, and immediately raised his knife to slash at the leader of the man in black who fell to the ground, but was blocked by the knife of the man in black on the side.

At this time, Qin Xiaoqin suddenly pointed ahead and shouted, "Look, our reinforcements are coming." ”

The group of men in black stopped almost at the same time and turned to look back, but there was not even a single figure in sight. Seeing this, Ye Chen took the opportunity to cut down the black-clothed man in front of him, and pulled everyone to run to the alley on the right.

By the time the people in black reacted, Ye Chen and the others had already entered the alley.

The alley is not wide, it can only accommodate two people walking side by side at the same time, Lin Wu and Qin Xiaoqin stood behind to block the entrance of the alley, and fought and retreated, and even played the momentum of a husband and a man. But the people of the Blood Knife Gate have no choice, and the advantage of having more people is gone.

Ye Chen stood behind Lin Wu and Qin Xiaoqin, and from time to time he saw an opportunity to stab out a Mo knife from between the two, seriously injuring the enemy. Seeing this, the black-clothed leader immediately led people to the other side, trying to block Ye Chen and his party in this alley.

Lin Wu himself was born in the military and was very experienced in this kind of face-to-face fighting, and for a while, they actually turned the situation around and gained the upper hand. However, with the order of one of the black-clothed men, the two or three men in black who were standing at the front slowly retreated, and just as Lin Wu and Qin Xiaoqin were puzzled, Ye Chen shouted: "It's not good, they have bows and arrows in their hands!" ”

Lin Wu immediately rolled to the ground, picked up the man in black who was lying on the ground and was dying, and blocked him, "poof" a few times, most of the arrows were shot at the man in black, but there was still an arrow that was nailed into his calf when Lin Wu rolled. Seeing this, Qin Xiaoqin also pulled up the black-clothed man on the ground to block the arrows.

Just when everyone was panicking, there was a sudden shout of killing behind the man in black, and the person who came was Chen Bing and Lin Zhijiang's personal soldier team of ten! When the three of them saw the rescuers coming, they rushed forward like chicken blood. Although these people from the Blood Knife Sect were well-trained, they were still much inferior in front of the Dahua soldiers. This team of ten pro-soldiers, that is a squad that has been baptized on the battlefield, is a squad that can give its back to its comrades! Never back down!

Seeing this, the black-clothed leader who had just walked around to the exit at the back of the alley gritted his teeth and said, "Withdraw!" Then he slowly exited the alley. When the pro-soldiers saw that they were about to run, they immediately led people to chase after them, only to hear Lin Wu behind them say with difficulty: "Poor Kou Mo chase!" ”

Chen Bing picked up Ye Chen and asked anxiously, "How is it, is the injury serious?" ”

Ye Chen smiled: "It's okay, you can't die." ”

Chen Bing blamed himself: "It's all my fault, if only I had brought someone earlier." ”

Qin Xiaoqin on the side said with a smile: "Brother, don't be self-conscious, if you hadn't brought someone in time, we would have to explain here today." ”

Lin Wu, who was lying on top of a pro-soldier, also smiled with difficulty: "Brother, thank you." ”

Chen Bing looked at Xiaoyu and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Ye Chen's arm around Chen Bing's neck tightened and said, "Brother, can we go back to treat the injury first?" It fucking hurts. Everyone was amused by this sentence, and the tense atmosphere was relieved.

In the Lin Mansion, the housekeeper Lin Bo looked at the few people covered in blood in front of him, and exclaimed, "What's the matter? ”

Lin Wu replied with difficulty: "I met a few little thieves, and I don't get in the way." ”

Ye Chen said: "Don't be reckless, Lin Bo, please send someone to find a Lang Zhong who can treat knife wounds, the sooner the better." ”

Lin Bo saw the appearance of these people, how dare he delay, and immediately ran out himself.

Lin Wu looked at Ye Chen and smiled slightly: "I can't see it, you can fight." ”

Ye Chen replied while wiping his wounds: "I have learned one and a half moves from Chen Bing before, and I can make do with a fight." ”

Chen Bing on the side smiled and said: "Chenzi, if you don't pretend to be forced to die, you still pretend to be like this." ”

Qin Xiaoqin also followed and said, "Ye Chen, although you are inexperienced, you are fierce when you just fought." Chatting and chatting, a few people began to praise each other about the fight just now.

After a while, Lin Bo ran in with a Lang Zhong, Lang Zhong took a look at the injuries of several people, except for Lin Wu, who was more serious and needed to rest for ten days and a half months, the other two were minor injuries, and they would be fine if they were bandaged.

In Lin Wu's room, because of the back injury, he could only lie on his bed to rest, Ye Chen, Chen Bing and Qin Xiaoqin sat opposite him. Chen Bing asked, "What's going on?" ”

Then Ye Chen explained in detail how several people found the little jade girl and the process of the assassination of the bloody knife gate on the way back, and everyone felt afraid for a while, if it wasn't for Chen Bing to bring people over in time, it would be really a big trouble tonight.

Qin Xiaoqin looked at Chen Bing and asked, "Brother Chen Bing, why did you appear there?" ”

Chen Bing replied: "I see that you have not come back for a long time when you went to the Cuihe River to investigate, and it is dark again, and there is always a bad feeling, so I will trouble General Lin's personal soldiers to go to you with me. ”

Ye Chen nodded, and asked Qin Xiaoqin again: "Lord Qin, can you tell me about the Blood Knife Gate and this Mo Knife." ”

Qin Xiaoqin said: "This Blood Knife Sect usually does things low-key and secretive, and never conflicts with the imperial court head-on, so our inspector department actually doesn't know much. This blood knife door specializes in taking money to do things, never asking the reason for things, and the price is also high, ordinary people can't afford it, and they have rarely missed so far. It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the disciples of this Blood Knife Sect have to go through strict training and pass before they can come out to do things, and every time they do something, they will be given a large amount of settling-in allowance, so they are not afraid of life and death. ”

He took a sip of tea and continued: "As far as I know, the Blood Knife Gate usually operates on the Huaxi Road side, and there is no way to know why he came to Annan Road and who he was hired for. ”

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Then what's the matter with the Mo Dao you are talking about?" ”

At this time, Lin Wu continued: "Mo knife, belongs to the long-handled knife, for this type of saber military department is generally strictly controlled, if the civil dart bureau or other people need it, you have to go to the local government for the record, and then the iron shop or refining department designated by the government to build it uniformly." And if the number exceeds 50, it must be reported to the Supervision Department for the record. In our country, a large number of use of Mo knife is the West Xinjiang Tiger Guard and the East Xinjiang spearmen, the infantry with the Mo knife can form a formation to resist the cavalry charge, the cavalry with the Mo knife can rush the enemy army array, because of its advantage, so the West Xinjiang Tiger Guard and the East Xinjiang spearmen are in love with it. ”

Chen Bing was puzzled: "What advantage?" ”

Lin Wu said with a smile: "Because it's long!" ”

Chen Bing always felt that something was wrong when he heard it, but he couldn't say anything was wrong for a while.

Qin Xiaoqin asked someone to take a Mo knife that he had just brought back, carefully measured it for a while and said: "This is not a Mo knife issued by the Ministry of War, I went to Dongjiang to track down the murderer last year, and the Mo knife in their hands is lighter than this, and the handle is slightly longer than this." ”

Qin Xiaoqin looked up at a few people and continued: "This should be a Mo knife privately made by the Blood Knife Sect, the courage is really not small, the imperial court didn't trouble them, they are getting bolder and bolder." I'll send someone to check the origin of these knives and see if I can find some clues. ”

Lin Wu nodded and said, "This group of people is obviously coming for the little jade girl, but why did they spend so much money, just to kill their mouths?" ”

Ye Chen spoke: "I think these people are not just coming for Miss Xiaoyu, it is very likely that we are also the target of their assassination. You think, if it's just the little jade girl, they should quietly do it in Cuihualou, where it is very easy for the assassins to hide themselves, and there is no need for twenty or thirty people to fight. ”

Qin Xiaoqin echoed: "It makes sense, it seems that a few of us may have touched something that shouldn't be touched." The truth feels like it's within reach every time, but the clues are broken at the right time every time, and I haven't felt this way in many years, which is kind of interesting. ”

At this time, Lin Wu got up with difficulty, moved to the edge of the bed and sat down, and said to everyone at the same time: "In Cuihualou, Miss Xiaoyu said that Xu Jing had mentioned the words general, knife, and black market to others before he died, what do you think?" ”

Ye Chen said: "Could it be that the knife in Xu Jing's mouth is the homemade Mo knife used by the man in black tonight?" ”

Qin Xiaoqin pondered for a moment and asked, "How do you say it?" ”

Ye Chen replied: "First, Xu Jing's death should have been done by the people behind him in order to kill him; Second, this little jade girl was also assassinated because of Xu Jing's affairs, and the mastermind behind the two should be the same person or even an organization, the reason why I say this is because the events of the past two days make me feel that the strength of the other party is indeed extraordinary; Third, before Xu Jing died, he must still be doing things for the people behind him, and that night in Cuihualou, I guess Xu Jing's men came to him to talk about this strange knife. As for why they kidnapped Miss Lin, I don't know, but I'm sure it was also instructed by the people behind the scenes, and the specific reason is unknown. What is the connection between this general and the black market will continue to be investigated. ”

Qin Xiaoqin also seemed to think of something, and said, "If your guess is right, then could this mastermind behind the scenes be the general that Xu Jing mentioned with his subordinates that night?" ”

Ye Chen said: "I don't think it's very likely, with the strength of the other party, he won't let a gang gangster like Xu Jing directly contact him, and this general may just be a middleman." I just hope that this general is just a code name, and not a real general. As soon as these words came out, several people in the room were shocked.
