Chapter 229: Rather than Broken Jade
The sound of weapons colliding in the courtyard of the Lu Mansion became more and more intense, and the injuries on the shoulders of the knife bearers seemed to be getting more and more serious, but they couldn't take care of the injuries, and when they wanted to escape and wanted to find the traces of another wave of black-clothed people, they found that the two black-clothed men were attacking more fiercely, especially one of the tall ones, his swordsmanship was vigorous and fast, the sword was sharp, and he seemed familiar with one move and one style, and his fists were difficult to defeat with four hands, and he couldn't withdraw at the moment.
Just as the sword-wielder was gradually losing his support, the black-clothed man with superb swordsmanship was not paying attention, and suddenly tripped over the gravel under his feet, and fell to the ground in an instant. In an instant, the blade-wielding man realized that he had no chance to miss the opportunity and swung his sword at the back of the person who stumbled, and the other Assassin stabbed the knife-wielder in the face. After all, the assassin's sword was three inches long, and the knife bearer thought badly, if he didn't get rid of the sword dancer in time, he was afraid that his own knife would not cut off the head of the tripper, and he would be in a different place first, so he did not hesitate to raise the knife first to separate the sword of the other assassin, and the sword in the man's hand was instantly shocked by the knife and flew several feet away. The knife wielder's eyes were quick, and by the way, he picked up and dropped the knife, cut off the head of the person in front of him, and then turned around, trying to solve the tripping person together, and when he turned back, a bright sword had stopped at his throat.
Just as the knife wielder closed his eyes and was about to be killed, the man spoke first: "You are Yin Ji, right?" ”
The knife wielder still closed his eyes and did not answer.
"Looking at your righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, you look a little like your master......" The man paused deliberately, then raised his voice a little and continued, "Old Marshal Zhou Zhongwang. ”
The knife-wielding man suddenly flashed his eyes, looked at the man in black in surprise, and asked coldly, "Who are you?" ”
The man in black didn't answer, and continued: "Since you are the apprentice of Marshal Zhou, how can you betray him again, if you really still have a trace of master-apprentice affection, you should tell him the whereabouts of the "Ghost Valley Vertical and Horizontal Theory". Besides, it was his ...... in the first place."
At this time, Yin Ji frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said coldly: "How do you know this?" After a pause, the conversation changed, "Are you ...... Xun Mou! ”
"Huh...... You're not stupid! Xun Mou smiled, "Since we are brothers in the same school, you have to call me a senior brother in terms of seniority......
Yin Ji interrupted indignantly: "So what? I have long had nothing to do with Marshal Zhou. ”
"Really? But Master has high hopes for you, and even when Master is dying, he still misses you. The teacher's kindness is like a mountain, even if you betray the master in the end, but the master and his old man have never complained about you. On the contrary, it is you, treachery first, insult lintel last. Xun Mou saw Yin Ji bowing his head and being silent, thinking that he was still just a child after all, and knowing that it would be effective if he moved with reason and emotion, so he continued, "Master has been thinking about it when he was dying, and I hope to inherit the "Ghost Valley Vertical and Horizontal Theory", glorify the lintel, let me be sure to find you, and tell our brothers to get along in harmony, study the cheats together, and serve the country in the future." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Xun Mou smiled and said with a pleasant face: "Master said before he died, Lu Zuo told you the whereabouts of "The Theory of Ghost Valley", he Lu Zuo has always been contrary to us, how can he glorify the lintel, now there is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, senior brother hopes that you can join forces with me, get back the secret book, and unify the mountains and rivers for the emperor, isn't it a blessing for my family through the ages!" ”
Yin Jiyin smiled miserably, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?" ”
Xun Mou shrugged his nose, and suddenly became murderous, "So you are Ning Weiyu's broken?" ”
Yin Ji resolutely said: "If you want to kill, you will kill, why bother talking nonsense!" ”
Just when Xun Mou was about to make a move, someone suddenly shouted in his ear: "Deng Zhuo's head is here, and he won't die soon." ”
Xun Mou raised his eyes and saw a group of people standing at the gate of the courtyard, led by the county lord who was quiet and drank Lu Zuo, and there was a tall and strong man beside him, who seemed to be familiar with him, and the three of them were followed by a group of family members who were fighting with open fires, all holding sharp blades, looking fierce and vicious. When Xun Mou looked carefully, the strong man next to Lu Zuo was carrying two bloody human heads in his hands, one of which was Deng Zhuo, and the other was Deng Zhuo's henchman, but he didn't expect that the two of them were in different places, it seems that this is not a place to stay for a long time, if he is recognized, he is afraid that he will be harmed, but the Yin Ji in front of him must not stay, solve him first, and then it is too late to escape. Just when Xun Mou wanted to seal Yin Ji's sword in his throat, he found that Yin Ji took the opportunity to swing the sword in Xun Mou's hand open, Xun Mou was stunned, and the sword in his hand also took off his hand, Xun Mou immediately reacted and left quickly, so he quickly turned around and jumped out of the wall in three or two steps.
The family members shouted to continue chasing, but Lu Zuo stopped him, "No need to chase anymore." ”
Chen retreated on the side: "Why don't you chase it?" Deng Zhuo is dead, the confession is gone, this must be a character just now, if we can catch him alive and get the confession, wouldn't it be like a tiger to us! ”
Lu Zuo's face was expressionless, "That man is athletic, you can't catch up." Then his eyes fell on Yin Ji.
Yin Ji was under the firelight at this moment, and the red blood stains on his right shoulder were clearly recognizable, and he was half-paralyzed on the ground, his left hand was covering the wound, and he looked painful.
Everyone didn't know what to do with the man in black in front of them, so their eyes fell on Lu Zuo. Seeing this, Lu Zuo directly tore off the corner of his robe, and then rushed forward, bandaged Yin Ji's wound, and then shouted at the housekeeper: "What are you still stunned about, go and invite Lang Zhong!" ”
Lu Zuo shouted, and Yin Ji also fainted in Lu Zuo's arms.
The anxious and angry night seemed to be extraordinarily long, and when dawn came, the early morning light shone on the window lattice of the inner hall of King Ning's mansion, and the courtyard was already full of many people, and everyone's hearts were touched by the man on the bed in the house. Some family members waited outside the house all night, their faces full of tiredness, but their nerves tensed.
In the hall, Emperor Han leaned on the edge of the couch, half-closed eyes as if he was asleep. Zhang Cen, who served on the side, also stood all night, if it was usual, Zhang Cen would have been crooked for a night, but he knew that today was extraordinary, if he was lazy at this time, he was afraid that even his life would be difficult to protect.
Zhang Cen was also sleepy at the moment, yawned several times, shook his spirits, looked at the emperor on the side of the couch, saw that he was half asleep, and did not bother, he took the opportunity to stretch his waist, just at this time, he saw that outside the crack in the door of the door, there was a little eunuch on duty, who was squeezing his eyebrows and waving his hand. Zhang Cen understood, so he tiptoed to the door, gently pushed the door open, the little eunuch only whispered a few words in Zhang Cen's ear through the threshold, Zhang Cen's eyes instantly widened, and his face turned pale.
