Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Qinhuai Chapter 073 The Seven-String Huqin Thunders
Julong City, Zishi, Futu Palace.
Li Sang Feijing led a team of elite black-clothed men and quickly advanced along the edge of Tusu Pond. With just a few snaps of their fingers, they were already approaching the entrance of the Nine Stars Pavilion.
Due to the closed structure of the Jiuchen Pavilion, in addition to the main entrance of the Blazing Cloud Palace, the passage into the Jiuchen Pavilion has a small arched door about eight feet high on the east, west, south, north, southeast, southwest, northeast, southwest, northeast, and its entrance is extremely narrow, and can only accommodate one person at a time.
The main gate of the Blazing Cloud Hall was strictly guarded by dozens of white-armored guards at this time, and if it was attacked and outnumbered, the various mechanisms densely scattered under its main gate could cause a large number of casualties. Although the underground palace inside the Blazing Cloud Hall is received by Beishui Nanlai and others, there are many Li Sang's important ministers in the palace, if this tough battle really wants to be fought, they will only be in a passive state, which is like being caught by the enemy in the soft underbelly, and every step is an unknown risk.
As early as an hour ago, when receiving the news of the ambush from the north and south, many high-spirited warriors began to shudder, and the fear of defeat without a fight more or less occupied everyone's fierce loyalty.
After the code was issued, all the warriors scattered in all directions, they lurked in the snow like moths, Li Sang Feijing's pair of sharp eagle eyes, melted into a dark night, even more gloomy, palms propped up in the snow to melt infinitely cold, nothing more ruthless than him, except for the ghostly howling north wind.
The palace that he once built with his hard work is now luring wolves into the room for the enemy to burst into the room, and hatred has invaded his eyes, and he can't help but roar in his heart: The fire of the Futu Palace will burn sooner or later!
As for when exactly the fuse was lit and detonated, it was entirely up to another person.
At this time, the Chenghan Chenxi Building was completely shrouded in dense smoke. The vision in the distance is extremely poor, and everything you can see is more than a shadow. From time to time, sparks flew by in the fog, dark red and dusk flickering.
The skylight of a corridor on the second floor of Jiuchen Pavilion is facing the Chenghan Chenxi Building. Standing in front of the window with his hands in his hands, his eyes widened, his eyes burned, and he looked at the Prince Tower in the distance with anticipation, he was exhausted at the moment, but he didn't expect to take the trouble to toss for so long, the mechanism of the thousand-faced glass and the Buddha light of Vientiane was finally over, and the ultimate mechanism he was frantically looking for was finally not started in time, and he wanted to complete the ultimate assassination mission, and now he had to take the last risky move.
Two days ago, when he learned from Wang Fu that the mysterious high-rise building was actually built by Emperor Mocang for Prince Mocang, and Emperor Mocang would unveil the red silk on the night of the prince's night banquet to announce to the world, and give this building to the prince as a birthday gift, he threatened with his life and ordered Wang Fu to prepare firearms to ignite the lamp tower on the night of the night banquet.
When the new building was first built, in order to celebrate, countless wines were sent to the Lantern Tower in the past few days, which was a sharp weapon for detonating and detonating, and this fierce cold wind could also create a prairie fire. He had long expected that on the night of the night banquet, most of the wind people would be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery and lively atmosphere of the prosperous world, and their vigilance and guards would inevitably be very weak. It is conceivable that its firefighting efficiency is naturally very low.
The most fatal blow is that it is now a cold winter, the lake water in the lake and the water tank prepared in advance have been frozen at this moment, and the work of fighting the fire must be extremely difficult, which has to alarm the people of Julong City, and at that time, Emperor Mocang will definitely send many werewolves out of the city to support, so that the power of the Futu Palace will be decomposed, and at this time, it will leave the hand, the Blazing Cloud Palace
It will inevitably become a mess, and taking the head of the Mocang Emperor will have an extra chance of winning.
This is obviously a ruined approach, and he will definitely not make this dangerous move until he reaches the last step. But when he escaped from the wooden plate, he was on the second floor of the Jiuchen Pavilion, and he saw the scene of the Mocang Emperor drinking liquor with the werewolf in the Blazing Cloud Hall safe and sound, and the killing machine in his heart flooded like a flood, and the target was close at hand, how could he fall short? Without the support of the ultimate mechanism, he can kill the wolf empty-handed!
So, after leaving the organ room, the first thing he did was to light the signal lamp, send the news of the explosion of the lamp tower into the night sky, and signal Wang Fu, who was lurking near the light tower, to immediately detonate the building.
At this time, although he lost contact with Prince Li Sang and others, time was tight, so he had to take the first step and take down the head of Emperor Mocang in the remaining time to complete the assassination mission.
Thinking of this step, he couldn't help but withdraw his gaze from the distance, dropped the skylight, turned away from the corridor, and quickened his steps to the railing of the corridor, trying to distinguish the scene below, and his heart was not anxious.
The worse the situation in the Blazing Cloud Palace, the better it was for him. His only concern at the moment was that if the lurkers led by Prince Li Sang confronted the werewolves in the Futu Palace in advance, they would definitely be wiped out. Only in a chaotic and complex environment can they win a glimmer of victory.
According to the distribution of seats seen in the telescope, he suddenly went around to the northernmost part of the corridor, and the Mocang Emperor downstairs was almost sitting opposite this position, his head tilted slightly, and he heard a staccato noise in his ears. This voice had a hundred miles of urgent reports from outside the palace, discussions from guests, and even thunderous anger from Emperor Mocang.
"Suzaku Street urgently reported that the fire in the Prince Building spread for five miles!"
"It's freezing on this day, how could the Prince Tower suddenly go out of the water! What about Zhao Hesi, who is in charge of the security of the Prince Tower tonight? What about people? Go get him to me! ”
Hearing this, you can't help but feel refreshed. Eyebrows and eyes glanced lightly, in the heavy light and shadow, just caught a glimpse of the horizontal eyebrows of Emperor Mo Cang when he was shooting the case, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, and then a whirlwind, followed by several phantom-like leaps on the corridor, he knew that he couldn't slow down any longer, he had to do it before Prince Li Sang!
Just as he was about to rush out of the exit of the second floor along the corridor steps, and then wind down the eighteen steps to reach the first floor and break through the Blazing Cloud Palace, he slowly took three steps back with cautious steps, and before he reached the steps, he had already turned back to the corridor, and his eyes suddenly became vigilant.
It turned out that his whereabouts had long been exposed. In front of him, in addition to the monks guarding the pavilion, there were also many werewolf guards, holding scimitars and approaching little by little, and all of them locked him with unfazed eyes, and these guards were all from the legions under the command of Spaka.
Although the guards were shocked by the sudden explosion, none of them left their posts without permission, but raised their vigilance.
In the face of this situation, there will be a countermeasure as soon as possible.
A puff of smoke inadvertently poured up, and at this point, it became the best cover.
There is more than one exit to the second floor, so take advantage of this opportunity to find another way. This point is thought of, how could the monks who have been guarding here for so many years not think of it?
Just as he was about to turn away, another wave of guards suddenly flashed across the corridor, and their sharp eyes flashed, east, west, north, northeast, northwest, southwest closest to him! Southeast! Sharp sword light flashed like a meteor, and hungry wolves and tigers poked their heads out one after another!
The pupils of surprise were suddenly confused, and it was too late
Hesitating, behind him, the guards who had just fallen into the obstacle revived again, and in the wisps of smoke, a pair of ghost-like eyes appeared, and a soul-devouring ** appeared, and their goal was only one to break into the pavilion to die!
They all took advantageous firing positions, and more than a dozen crossbows were raised at the same time. There is no need for people to give orders at all, and the grasp of the timing is their common tacit understanding.
"Shhh Hiss! Hiss! ......”
The sound of bows and arrows coming and going, these guards were once the elite of the legion, they raised the banner of Mocang, in the sound of Mocang's horn, they have eaten countless small countries, and a hundred steps through them are the basic quality.
More than a dozen sharp arrows shot at him alone in an instant!
For the grasp of timing, I am afraid, it will be even better. With a flick of his fingers, he stepped on the railing lightly, as if he was soaring into the clouds, and like a koi jumping out of the water and jumping into the air, the dozen or so tricky crossbow arrows happened to pass through the gap between his feet, some contradicted themselves and fell, some were stabbing on the red pillar, some were immeasurably sweeping away the dust, and some simply turned against each other and flew to their own camp in the distance.
What followed, in addition to the jagged sound of bows and arrows falling to the ground, there were also inexplicable screams. In just a short moment, most of the guards on all sides fell.
The suspended steps, finally settled slightly on the cornices that extended beyond the railing, and it was clear that Jiang Li had changed his strategy.
Since the eight entrances to the Blazing Cloud Hall have been blocked, in addition to killing a bloody path, you can only jump directly from outside the railing to the Blazing Cloud Palace, and it is definitely irrational to kill a bloody path, because any entrance and exit is destined to be cramped, and it will only force you to a dead end; Jumping off a building, although very risky, is the fastest and most effective way at the moment.
The rest of the guards reacted very quickly, they all rolled over the railing, jumped off the eaves, lowered themselves, swung their scimitars, and charged towards the general.
The sound of the tiles being trampled on was extremely crisp, and if you were in the Blazing Cloud Palace, the sound of muffled thunder would continue to sound overhead! Excluding the time to jump, this means that the werewolf must be able to defend faster than he can sneak attack!
This time, his enemy is no longer the stumbling guards, but time!
Unbelievable, he rushed to the edge of the eaves, flew his arms, jumped over, and in the huge hourglass above his head, the little quicksand left was falling rapidly, and the cold wind invaded, this biting cold not only did not reduce his combat effectiveness, but stimulated his thousands of nerves, and the blood in his whole body suddenly boiled!
When he jumped to the bandstand, he just felt refreshed!
The circle around the bandstand in the heart of the Blazing Cloud Hall is extremely empty, and the stage is full of all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, or colorful, or faintly fragrant, lush, and different shapes, which set off several maids and luthiers wearing silk streamers on the stage to be extremely amazing, however, they stopped at this moment, changed their looks, flew their souls, and lost their heartbeats.
The beating fingertips tore from the first string of the seven-stringed huqin to the last string. The cold string couldn't bear the pressure and torture, and let out a final whimper. The melodious sound suddenly slipped into gloom and desolation, and finally ended in dead silence.
The extremely noisy voice, killing people invisibly, instantly made many listeners nervous and heart-lung nauseous.
A broken cold string has finally torn apart the true face of this conspiracy!
will not change his eyebrows, jumping off the platform. In the middle of the way, eunuchs and palace maids fled in panic amid a scream, and the nearest werewolf was just about to draw his sword, but it was cleanly dealt with. The fateful one struggled for a moment on the bloodshot ground, and escaped by luck, leaving him again.
His goal is only one Mocang Emperor.
