Chapter 35: The Road to Inquiry (2)
Emperor Wanlong was standing at the junction of the Asking Heart Road and the Lotus Platform, holding Yun'er Bing next to him. The corpses were piled up under the high platform, plus the wreckage on the road of asking the heart, and the more than 100 martial arts masters sent by Yu Chengyun were all killed by the ghost-faced man under the prayer platform. Li Chengye shouted wildly: "Yu Chengyun, you are exhausted, and you still don't surrender!" ”
After saying that, the Dingbei Army and the Duwei Army surrounded the only remaining 300 soldiers under Chengyun's command, and the Fengwu Battalion aimed the Wuhou Lian's crossbow at Yu Chengyun and monitored Yu Chengyun's every move. Hearing Li Chengye's voice, Yu Chengyun came back to his senses, looked at Li Chengye, and suddenly deflated, his face died of old age in an instant, as if he had aged many years, and sighed, a picture of the end of the hero.
Suddenly, just when everyone was relieved, a figure quickly rushed up to the road of inquiry like a ghost, and a few ups and downs had reached the ghost-faced man. Xiao Bai died below to see it clearly, his face changed drastically, and he shouted: "Ge Mai! "Man has swooped down like a great bird on the path of inquiry.
As soon as this voice fell, the faces of the eight stars changed together, Li Chengye and Li Chengwen were about to ask who Ge Mai was, but they were sucked by the violent knife light on the road of inquiry, and Yu Chengyun also looked at the figure that rushed up like a return to the light, and even Xiao Baisheng, who jumped up, just commanded and stopped it at will.
The figure is the old man surnamed Ge from the Taishi Mansion, who has been hiding until the end, waiting for an opportunity to make a move. The old man in sackcloth moved his body, pulled out his hands in his sleeves, and wore a pair of gloveled gloves with cold light, which emitted a faint blue light under the moonlight, which was obviously coated with poison. Xiao Baisheng shouted wildly: "Be careful of his fist gloves." ”
The ghost-faced man didn't move, and his eyes didn't even roll after Xiao Baisheng shouted, at this time, the old man in Mai had almost touched the throat of the ghost-faced man with his palms, and suddenly his face changed, and he hurriedly floated back a few feet, standing on the road of inquiry. Xiao Baisheng's hand froze slightly, and he was almost injured by the sword, and muttered to himself: "What a fast knife." ”
The ghost-faced man turned his eyes to the old man in Mai, who was overwhelmed by the ghost-faced man's eyes, and couldn't help but shudder, and was busy calming down, his hands were slightly open, and he laughed strangely, jumped high, and grabbed the ghost-faced man from high down. The ghost-faced man seemed to be stunned, looking at the old man in Mai who jumped up, thought for a while, and suddenly raised his breath and jumped up to meet him, the long knife in his hand burst out of a bright knife light, and everyone had an illusion for a while, as if a full moon appeared out of thin air on the road of inquiry, but the knife light was stronger than the moonlight, and the person who stabbed couldn't open his eyes, only heard the sound of Jin Ge hitting each other dozens of times, and the two separated again, but the old man in Mai was forced to retreat.
As soon as the ghost-faced man touched the ground, the whole person was like an arrow off the string, dragging a bright light, and killed the old man in Mai, the old man in Mai changed color and hit each other, both sides were already injured internally, and the ghost-faced man was even more desperate to force himself to retreat with serious injuries, thinking that he was temporarily powerless to shoot, just guarding the road of conscience, but he didn't want to just fall, so he killed himself from a high place, and he was extremely brave.
When the old man in Mai woke up, it was half a beat late, the knife light had arrived in front of him, the old man in Mai made a hasty move, and was forced back by the ghost-faced man from the top of the road of conscience all the way back to more than fifteen zhang, the long knife in the ghost-faced man's hand was extremely violent, and it was as fast as lightning, only the sound of the knife was heard, but he couldn't see the shadow of the knife, it was really like a ghost in the underworld.
The old man in Mai struggled to resist, if he could survive the long knife of the ghost-faced man, the old man in Mai was ninety percent sure that he could counterattack and defeat the ghost-faced man, but under the light of this knife, the old man in Mai could only dismantle the move, but he did not have the slightest chance to fight back, and suddenly the old man in Mai shouted: "Kill!" The arms intersected, drew a semicircle, forced the knife light with a strong internal force, reached out with both hands, suppressed the blood in the mouth, and hurriedly grabbed the ghost-faced man, seeing that the ghost-faced man could no longer avoid, the old man in Mai was ecstatic in his heart, and he wanted to kill the ghost-faced man under his hands. Suddenly, the old man in Mai saw the eyes of the ghost-faced man, with a little madness, a little disdain and a little cruelty, and smiled, between the lightning and flint, this was the only thought of the old man in Mai, the ghost-faced man laughed, and in a slight trance, the ghost-faced man was no longer in front of him, and everyone below let out an exclamation, and the old man in Mai fixed his eyes and saw that he had changed places with the ghost-faced man, and standing in front of him was Emperor Wanlong on the prayer platform.
The old man in Mai was thinking about it, but he didn't stop under his feet, and he took advantage of the momentum to rush towards Emperor Wanlong, and the ghost-faced man stood in place without looking back. Yu Chengyun was overjoyed, this was the last fight, the old man in Mai was getting closer and closer, one step away from Emperor Wanlong, and he was about to grab Emperor Wanlong, Li Chengde's face was pale, trembling, he stayed on the spot, unable to move half a step, and Li Chengye's army let out an exclamation, and the soldiers in the melee on both sides slowed down, staring at the old man in Mai and Emperor Wanlong, Xiao Baisheng and Chu Ying'er had already grabbed the way of conscience, but they were beyond the reach of the whip, and they could only watch the old man in Mai shoot to capture Emperor Wanlong, and all efforts were in vain in the end, Emotions of great joy and sorrow quickly wandered among the crowds.
Suddenly, the outstretched hand of the old man in Mai stopped in mid-air, and Yu Chengyun shouted wildly: "Mr. Ge! ”
The old man in Mai slowly turned his head, smiled strangely at Yu Chengyun, stood in front of Emperor Wanlong, there was no movement in the middle of the sound, Yu Chengyun and the rebels were stunned, Li Chengye took the opportunity to shout: "Capture the thief Yu Chengyun, reward a thousand taels of silver!" ”
The rebels came to their senses and resisted desperately, but they had no fighting spirit, and their number was no more than three hundred, if it weren't for the dead soldiers of Yu Chengyun's henchmen, they would have already disarmed and surrendered.
Emperor Wanlong settled his mind and gently pushed the old man in Mai, who fell down in response, rolled a few times, and fell under the prayer platform. Xiao Baisheng has been paying attention to Emperor Wanlong, seeing the old man in Mai turning down the prayer platform, Xiao Baidan felt cold in his heart, the last knife of the ghost-faced man shook Ge Mai's heart, but where the knife came from, he didn't even see it clearly, if this knife slashed at himself, I don't know how sure he would be to take it, Xiao Baishou secretly calculated, if he wins Ge Mai, it is not difficult for Xiao Baisheng to die, but such a clean kill, even Xiao Baidie does not dare to say that he will be able to do it.
Seeing that the old man in Mai was already dead, Emperor Wanlong breathed a sigh of relief, moved slightly, and walked down the stairs. Xiao Bai was startled, and was about to help, but when he saw him, he shot Sen Han's gaze, like falling into an ice cellar, and he was cold, Xiao Bai was startled, and hurriedly stopped the idea of stepping forward, and only said: "Your Majesty." ”
Sen Han's gaze flashed, and the ghost-faced man closed his eyes and didn't speak, until Emperor Wanlong was about to walk in front of him, and then he said slowly: "Walk more, you can see more." Xiao Baidan looked surprised, the ghost-faced man ignored it, and turned his head to look at Emperor Wanlong, who raised his head and said with a smile: "This is the first time I have walked this road alone." ”
The ghost-faced man bowed slightly, suddenly vomited, blood flowed down the mask, and Emperor Wanlong exclaimed: "You are injured? ”
The ghost-faced man shook his head and pointed down, Emperor Wanlong groaned slightly, nodded, and said, "Okay, you may go down?" ”
The ghost-faced man nodded slightly, and Emperor Wanlong said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's go." After that, he went down first, Xiao Baisheng and Chu Ying'er were on the side, and the ghost-faced man followed last.
When Li Chengye and Li Chengwen saw Emperor Wanlong coming down, they hurriedly stepped forward and shouted long live, and the Seven Princes also hurriedly ran over and called: "Father." ”
Li Chengde nodded and said, "I have a few words with Yu Qing. ”
Li Chengye shouted: "The generals will listen to the order and retreat." ”
The rebels have been besieged to a corner by Li Chengye and King Mu from the steps of Wenxin Road, and there are less than 100 people in the Yu Chengyun family, this is because there are hostages in the rebels.
The Dingbei Army, Duwei and the soldiers of the Guanshan Battalion who had just arrived stopped their attacks, retreated a few steps, and separated a road from the middle, and Emperor Wanlong and Prince Chun, as well as King Mu and the Seven Princes, walked in together, followed by Eight Stars and One Guard.
Emperor Wanlong looked at Yu Chengyun, then at the crown prince and queen, and sighed: "Yu Qing, why are you suffering?" ”
Yu Chengyun let out a long laugh and said with a sad face: "Li Chengde, your life is good, I have repeatedly underestimated you today, and I also deserve to be killed, and I can't complain about others." ”
"Yu Qing, I asked myself if I took you in the past, the power of the Yu family, although it is not a hand to cover the sky, but it is enough to be above ten thousand people under one person, why do you have today's behavior?"
Yu Chengyun snorted coldly and said, "Li Chengde, don't pretend here. If you become a king or lose, the old man loses and loses, and you don't have to humiliate me. ”
Emperor Wanlong sighed softly and said: "Yu Qing, Yu Qing, you are really a generation of heroes, but how many people have been implicated because of you, and their families have been ruined, have you ever thought about it?" ”
Yu Chengyun said coldly: "If the old man wins today, they will naturally be prosperous and rich, and they will enjoy inexhaustible." In the world, there are gains and losses, who can calculate everything? ”
Prince Xuanyi suddenly burst into tears and screamed: "Father save me, the child was held hostage by this traitor, father save me." After saying that, he wanted to rush over, but was slapped to the ground by the dead soldier next to him with the hilt of his knife.
Yu Chengyun's face twitched and did not speak. Emperor Wanlong looked at the crown prince who fell to the ground and groaned, turned his gaze to the queen, and smelled: "Concubine Rong, is that so?" ”
Queen Rong is still a graceful and luxurious style among the swordsmen, and there is no panic between the victory and defeat, and the beauty is beautiful, no wonder the harem power is favored, and Prince Chun and King Mu are secretly praised when they see this.
When Empress Rong heard Emperor Wanlong's question, she slowly glanced at Prince Xuanyi, and replied in a deep magnetic voice: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, what you think is what it is." ”
"Okay, it's not my queen." Emperor Wanlong said approvingly, and turned to Yu Chengyun and said: "Yu Qing, there is no need to fight the trapped beast again, you surrender." ”
