The assassination of Prince Chun's mansion caused an uproar in Zhuocheng, and rumors were spread among the market.

The assassins who entered the palace were almost wiped out, and the three armies in Zhuo City were guarded, all guarded, all guarded, and all rode three battalions to collect the remnants of the assassins.

The front yard of the palace is the place where Prince Chun Li Chengye entertains guests.

Entering from the south main gate of the palace is a stone street corridor, on both sides are the sentry posts of the palace guards, and the palace hall where Prince Chun deals with government affairs is far away, and the book is written by Emperor Wanlong: in the middle hall.

There is also a white jade square between this hall and the corridor, there are five large tripods on it, the left side of the square is the resting place of the palace guards, the martial arts field that Li Luo often goes to is also here, and on the right is some side rooms for the officials who come to the palace to rest.

On weekdays, the Dading cigarettes in this square are curling, which has a unique atmosphere, but on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the white jade is close to blood, but it is a scene of Shura hell.

Now the blood stains on the square have been washed away by the people in the palace, and there is no trace of it, only the corpse of the assassin still hanging on the high pole on the side is still telling the tragedy of the day.

Loel was identified as a member of the Assassins, and her body was displayed in the front yard to prevent a good death.

That night, Prince Chun Li Chengye was originally entertaining a few distinguished guests in the middle hall, and when the banquet was about to end, the assassins suddenly killed, and the timing and place chosen were very exquisite, just the time when the guards changed the guard to rest, and the surprise attack was swift and neat.

The palace guards were caught off guard, and these assassins were all skilled and fearless of death, and they lost more than 30% of their lives as soon as they first fought. The palace guards formed a formation with each other, resisting with all their might, and were slowly forced by the assassins to the front of the central hall, surrounding Prince Chun and others in the main hall.

Prince Chun was not alarmed, stood in front of the palace with his hands in his hands, watched every move on the field with cold eyes, was calm and calm, and ordered the soldiers to form a formation to resist the enemy.

When the guards saw that Prince Chun was so calm, their morale was greatly boosted, and although they were damaged, they were able to withstand the pressure of the assassins.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Shi, the commander of the guard, rushed to Prince Chun and shouted: "Lord Wang, the assassins are powerful, please stay away for the time being, and your subordinates will stay and kill all these thieves." ”

Prince Chun let out a long laugh and said coldly: "I, Li Chengye, have been on the battlefield for so many years, and I will be scared by a few assassins, besides, you have been with this king for many years, have you ever seen this king abandon his soldiers?" Formation, kill! ”

Wang Shi heard this, and shouted: "Yes, we are on the same battlefield with the prince, living and dying together!" ”

"Live and die together on the battlefield!" The palace guards shouted in unison, and their morale was victorious for a while.

At this time, an old man in black among the assassins sneered, and took a few steps forward gently, following the footsteps of the old man, the palace guards who were not afraid of life and death actually took a few steps back in horror, even the same group of assassins saw the old man come forward, they all moved a few steps away, for fear of blocking the old man's way.

Wang Shi was startled, and hurriedly raised his knife to block in front of Prince Chun.

As soon as this black-clothed old man entered the palace, he aroused Wang Shi's jealousy, like a ghost and demon, and the long knife in his hand had hit the opponent's vital point without raising it, and no one could clearly see this person make a move all the way in. The old man in black has not taken the initiative to make a move since he entered the mansion, but as long as the palace guards rushed over, he would fight back, unstoppable, and the sword was killed, and suddenly walked towards the main hall, Wang Shi couldn't help but feel cold in his vest, as if he was being stared at by a giant beast, and cold sweat oozed from his head.

Prince Chun was also slightly taken aback, if this person did not hesitate to live or die, the palace guards might not be able to resist, and immediately shouted: "Who is Your Excellency?" Dare to break into my palace of Prince Chun, please advise. ”

The old man in black stood still and said slowly: "Prince Chun Li Chengye is a little bold, but you can't take revenge, you don't need to know the name of the old man, so you don't have to wait for you to die." ”

After speaking, he slowly walked forward. The rest of the assassins knew that the time had dragged on for a long time, and the Gan Dynasty army would arrive soon, not to mention the assassination of Prince Chun, I am afraid that these people would have to stay here.

Seeing the old man come forward, all the assassins cheered up and killed him.

The pressure on the tiger guard in the palace increased greatly, and in the blink of an eye, the wall of people protecting Prince Chun was in danger, but the soldiers used their lives to resist the assassin to the death, but they couldn't see it for half a moment, and the tiger guard was about to be killed and wounded.

The old man in black snorted coldly, walked a few steps quickly, and was about to break through the human wall with a knife, Prince Chun let out a long laugh, and the old man paused slightly, and then heard Li Chengye shout: "All the soldiers listen to the order, Fu!" ”

The group of assassins looked at each other, not knowing what Prince Chun meant, but they also guessed that it was not good for them and stepped up their offensive.

The tiger guard, who was still fighting for his life just now, suddenly withdrew his blades neatly, and some of them who couldn't retreat were injured and retreated.

The assassin was stunned, but he didn't expect that the guards who were desperate just now actually shrank back, except for a few palace guards who were seriously injured, who were killed by the assassins before they could retreat, everyone else retreated to the bottom of the main hall.

In the middle hall, there are more than 20 steps from the square to the entrance of the main hall, the railings are more than half a person high, and the remaining guards retreat and squat half to cover their bodies, at this time, there is no wall between Prince Chun and the masked assassins, and the master of the hidden weapon is ready to assassinate Prince Chun.

The Assassin was stunned for a moment, then rushed up the steps with a beaming face.

The old man in black's face changed slightly, and he shouted: "Quickly retreat, retreat." ”

After speaking, the person floated towards Prince Chun like a ghost, and the piercing sword light was faster than the person, which lit up in an instant, like a white practice, which had been imprinted on Li Chengye's face.

Li Chengye didn't have time to dodge, the knife light was close, Li Chengye, who was stabbed by the powerful knife qi, half-closed his eyes, and several guard leaders shouted and rushed to the knife, but unfortunately the knife light was too fast, and the knife qi was overflowing, forcing a few people to not be able to move in an inch.

Seeing that Prince Chun was about to break his skull, he suddenly stretched out a thin hand from the empty hall, holding a wooden stick of a length of a few feet, and gently burst into the knife qi, and intercepted the soul-hooking long knife before the knife light broke into Prince Chun's head.

Hearing a muffled sound, the knife had already hit the wooden stick, and I didn't know what kind of tree the wooden stick was made of, but it blocked the shocking knife without breaking, but the knife qi was not completely blocked, and Prince Chun's face was cut out of an inch long bloody wound, if the wooden stick was late, I am afraid that Da Luo Jinxian would not be able to save Prince Chun.

This blow was blocked, lightning and flint, and the assassins had just rushed up at this time, and a few assassins who noticed something bad heard the old man speak, stopped their figures, and paused.

The old man swept his eyes around and scolded: "A bunch of fools, don't all get out of here!" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a buzzing sound in the air, like a million bees flapping their wings at the same time, and immediately retracting their wings, and the buzzing came and went quickly.

At the same time, a scream was heard from the crowd of assassins, and the assassins who rushed up the steps were all stuck with a few sharp arrows in front of them without exception, and a few were convulsed on the ground, most of them were killed on the spot, and those who survived were already stunned, such a sharp weapon had never been seen before.

Someone in the audience took a long breath of cold air and spit out four words with difficulty: "Wuhou crossbow!" ”

Wang Shi and the rest of the palace guards also gasped, and the Wuhou crossbow, as long as it was a Dagan soldier, it was like thunder.

A crossbow and seven shots, within twenty steps of the body is the top master in the martial arts can not retreat from the whole body, with fast, accurate, almost dead power famous all over the world, but it is a pity that the requirements of a crossbow and seven shots are too high, and the power of Dagan poured the country into the country is only to create ten Wuhou crossbows that can shoot seven shots, and the general ones can only shoot three arrows, which requires the craftsman's extremely high skills, even if it can do five arrows at once, it is very rare.

As soon as the rain of arrows fell, more than 50 people rushed from the main hall, half of them surrounded Prince Chun with crossbows, and the other half aimed at the assassins.

Wang Shi saw it, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, the helmet of the bow guard was inlaid with a phoenix feather hanging on the back, the phoenix dance camp, this is one of the most elite barracks in the army of Prince Chun's lineage, the prestige is great, and it is still above the tiger guard, and it is famous for its swift march and mysterious sniping.

In Prince Chun's Dingbei Army, the Fengwu Battalion is only comparable to the Longyin Battalion, but the Longyin Battalion is secretive and not prestigious, which makes the Fengwu Battalion famous.

Seeing that Prince Chun was safe and worry-free, Wang Shi shouted loudly: "Tiger Guard, kill!" "With that, he pounced on an arrow-and-arrow remnant.

The Tiger Guards leaped out one after another, attacking the terrified Assassins.

Although the assassins who slipped through the net still had the strength to fight, they were all frightened birds at the moment, looking at the black crossbows, they all had no intention of fighting, and they were killed by the tiger guard for a while.

Li Chengye was shocked into a cold sweat, his face turned pale, and he reached out to wipe the blood on his face, he didn't expect that there was such a master among the assassins, if it was a little later, I am afraid that he would have died in Huangquan.

It wasn't until a tall and thin monk in the main hall walked up to Prince Chun that Li Chengye breathed a sigh of relief.

If Luo's was present, he would definitely recognize that this tall monk was the presiding monk of the Guanshan Dashu Temple in the east of Zhuocheng.

The incense of Dashu Temple is not too prosperous, but every year some princes have to go up the mountain to visit the Buddha.

Dashu Temple has a high status in the temples of Zhuozhou, Prince Chun will also go to it several times a year, Luo's followed and saw this Jiekong host, but he never guessed that this kind and indifferent presiding monk in the past turned out to be a master who hid deeply.

The old man in black stared at the host of Xie Kong with an expressionless face, and snorted coldly: "Deadwood Zen staff, but that's it." ”

Xie Kong made a noise of the Buddha's horn and said: "It turned out to be Da Luo Dao, is it the master of Duanmu of the Dry Mountains?" ”

"Hmph," the old man said coldly, "Master? Don't you all call the old man Duanmu an old monster, hypocritical. ”
