Chapter 49: Endgame

Everyone waited for the wise and martial decision of His Royal Highness King Anyang, and there was no chaos that night. But the next day, the king of Anyang determined who the murderer was in front of everyone, and he wanted to take the person away without evidence. The person who was taken away was Yi Yunchang, who came to Yuanning Mansion with Xuan Zhuyi and others. Xuan Zhuyi They could see it clearly, when Yi Yunchang was designated by the King of Anyang to take him away, his eyes were full of anger, as if he was still burning with fire. But even so, he did not defend himself, and allowed the officers and soldiers to tie him up, stuff him into a carriage, and escort him to the capital. King Anyang only listened to the people of the Gongsun family to defend Yi Yunchang for a few words, so he didn't listen to their too many explanations, and he didn't leave time to leave for Beijing. This series of actions is too coherent, and it has to make people suspect that King Anyang is prepared. But it was limited to his own crankiness, and no one dared to say it to his face. King Anyang took the murderer Yi Yunchang in such a beautiful way to leave many questions for everyone, and at the same time left in style. Xuan Zhuyi and others also said goodbye to the Gongsun family of Yuanning Mansion after King Anyang left, but they took a shortcut on the way and secretly caught up with King Anyang and his party. The group had just left Xuancheng County and walked to a silent forest when they were stopped by a woman. Xuan Zhuyi and the others took the opportunity to take a detour and hide in the woods, relying on leaves and shade to cover their bodies, silently watching the situation not far away. King Anyang rode on a horse and looked down at the woman. The woman's dress was not luxurious, but her face was very delicate, and her two big eyes stared at King Anyang with blazing eyes, not afraid at all, but it made King Anyang a little stunned for a while, she was carrying a long sword behind her back, as if showing her identity. King Anyang paused and said, "Who is coming?" Dare to stand in my way? Do you know who I am? ”

The woman was not in a hurry and said, "The grass people have seen His Royal Highness the King of Anyang. Caomin's surname is Song, his name is Chang, and his word is Chujiang, and he is a wandering monk. The grass people did not come here with the intention of stopping His Royal Highness the King of Anyang, but just to find someone. ”

"Oh? Who to come to? ”

"Yi Yunchang."

King Anyang narrowed his eyes slightly, gently touched his eyebrows with the thumb of his right hand, leaned forward and said, "Yi Yunchang is a felony who killed Gongsun Yu Min, how can he be easily handed over to you?"

Song Chujiang smiled faintly and said: "The grass people have evidence to prove that Yi Yunchang's move was coerced and instigated by others, His Highness might as well arrest the person behind this scene."

"Oh?" Xiao Yuhuan, the king of Anyang, frowned and said, "What evidence do you have?" ”

Song Chujiang unhurriedly took out a folded piece of paper from his arms, looked at Xiao Yuhuan and said: "This is the evidence of the person behind the scenes and Yi Yunchang, and it is also clearly written that person's request to Yi Yunchang, which shows that Yi Yunchang's move is being used."

Xiao Yuhuan looked around and asked, "Why should I believe you?"

Song Chujiang put away the piece of paper and said, "If Your Highness doesn't believe it, it will be inconvenient for the grass people to say anything." Yi Yunchang, you can take it back, after all, he killed someone. As for me, I went to Yuanning Mansion and handed over this evidence to Gongsun Mufan and Gongsun Wenyu. Presumably, they won't let the real murderer go too far. With that, Song Chujiang was about to go straight into the city. Xiao Yuhuan glanced at a person beside him, who understood and beckoned to the brother behind, and the person behind quickly surrounded Song Chujiang. Song Chujiang was forced to stop, turned around and said, "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"

Xiao Yuhuan also jumped off the horse at this time, stood outside the encirclement and said, "This king suddenly wants to know who the real murderer is now." Miss Song might as well put the evidence in the hands of this king, and she can also exchange Yi Yunchang's life, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone? ”

Song Chujiang: "Your Highness is really polite. I'm afraid that when I hand over the evidence to His Highness, not only will Yi Yunchang not be able to save him, but even I will get in, right? ”

"Hahaha!" Xiao Yuhuan clapped his hands and smiled, "Smart is smart, but it's used in the wrong place." Xiao Yuhuan casually made a gesture, and all the soldiers in the encirclement attacked Song Chujiang together. Song Chujiang didn't draw his sword, but just turned over and kicked the first few people who rushed up, and used another move to sweep the hall and smash all the soldiers into the mud. Song Chujiang clasped his hands in front of his chest, stood in front of Xiao Yuhuan and said, "Is His Royal Highness the King of Anyang so breathless?" In this way, you want my Song Chujiang's life? ”

Xiao Yuhuan: "I can't kill you, but I believe there is one person who can." He took out a copper bell from his arms, and shook it casually, and the carriage parked not far from Song Chujiang suddenly moved. Earlier, with the sound of the bells, the horse felt a little restless, both wanting to gallop away and a little hesitant. The movement inside the carriage became bigger and bigger, and a huge flower snake flew out of the window of the carriage unexpectedly, heading straight for Song Chujiang. Song Chujiang jumped and dodged the snake's attack. In the next second, the carriage was split in an instant, and the true colors of the three flower snakes were revealed, and below the three flower snakes was a person's body, but the two arms of the person had also begun to slowly snake, and it turned out that the three flower snakes were acting as the head of this person. Xiao Yuhuan was also shocked when he saw this, and he didn't know what to do for a while. Song Chujiang was also a little surprised, but she quickly calmed down, drew her sword and used the Mind Fixing Technique on the snake's head, wanting to temporarily stabilize its mood. As soon as Xiao Yuhuan saw Song Chujiang move, he hurriedly shook the copper bell in his hand again. The three snakes spit out the letter at the same time, and they were affected by the copper bell on the one hand, and the restriction of the meditation on the other, and they were in chaos for a while. The person next to Xiao Yuhuan drew his sword and stabbed at Song Chujiang, Song Chujiang was separated, and he couldn't concentrate on using the Divine Fixing Technique to suppress the snake head, so the snake head was free, and obeyed the instructions of the copper bell, and instantly broke through the formation of the Divine Fixing Technique, spitting out the letter and attacking in the direction of Song Chujiang. Song Chujiang swung his sword to block it, but he didn't want to be pushed up to a tree on the other side of the woods by the breath of the snake head that rushed over. The people around Xiao Yuhuan saw the snake head rushing over, and they forgot how to survive nervously for a while, and they didn't have superb swordsmanship to resist, so they were divided into three snakes. When the other officers and soldiers present saw this scene, they were so frightened that their legs and stomachs weakened, but they still did not hesitate to give up their lives and flee. Xiao Yuhuan also shook the copper bell in his hand, and the snake's head dangled in pain, and finally approached a state of madness, and even the copper bell had no way to control it. Xiao Yuhuan saw that the scene was no longer controllable, so he hurriedly flew on his horse and galloped away. Xuan Zhuyi and the others, who were hiding in the shadows, saw that Xiao Yuhuan and the others had left, and the current situation was no longer controllable, so they jumped out of the woods one after another and stood in front of the snake's head. Mu Jinggong helped Song Chujiang up, and asked her to check the pulse, but fortunately, there were no fatal serious injuries, so he simply adjusted himself.

Xuan Zhuyi, Mu Zhixi and Ouyang Ruolin were the forwards to lure, and Shang Ling and Yu Cihe were the rear to annihilate the enemy. Song Chujiang also took a few steps forward and stood at the end of the crowd, in the form of an inverted triangle. Xuan Zhuyi and Mu Zhixi split into two and attacked the snake head, two snakes attacked to both sides, and the middle one attacked Ouyang Ruolin. Shang Ling took this opportunity to wave out the ochre fan and circled around the snake's head, but it was just a little blood that drew out the snake's head. Yu Tzu Hyuk took a few steps forward, and flew towards the upright snake head and flung his whip. Shang Ling and Ouyang Ruolin, who had retracted the ochre fan, stood at two ends, standing behind Xuan Zhuyi and Mu Zhixi respectively, wrapping a red wire around the two blades, and at the same time throwing the two blades towards the snake's body from different directions in a ring. Song Chujiang, who was standing in the rear, also swung his sword and used the Divine Fixation Technique again, forcibly stabilizing the emotions of the three snake heads and trapping them in place. Mu Jinggong stood not far away to watch the battle, but suddenly found that the man's two arms were gradually snakeing and were about to take shape. She yelled at the crowd, "Be careful! His arms are also snaked! Song Chujiang looked at it, was ruthless, and released two half-long swords, cutting off the two arms that were about to be snaked. The arm that fell to the ground turned into two very small cyan snakes and fled. Seeing that the crisis had been resolved, Mu Jinggong took out an incense card from his body, ran to Song Chujiang's side and said, "Senior, I have a wormwood incense card here, and after burning, it is something that snakes are afraid of, see if it can be put into your array."

Song Chujiang looked at the incense card in Mu Jinggong's hand and said, "Okay, you put it on the eye of this array."

"Array...... Array of eyes? Predecessor? Where is this eye? ”

"Right in the middle of me and the head of the snake."

Mu Jinggong took the incense card and measured his steps from the side, while paying attention to the snake's movements. Now the three snakes are busy fighting with Xuan Zhuyi and them, and they can't care about Mu Jinggong at all. Mu Jinggong boldly walked to the middle, put the incense card on the ground, turned around and withdrew. Song Chujiang caused the incense card in the formation, hung it in the air, pointed to the sword incense card, threw out three fires and led the incense card to fly, and the incense card immediately burned. Song Chujiang pushed the burning incense card parallel to the head of the snake, Shang Ling and Ouyang Ruolin also took the opportunity to collect the red silk, and pulled it tightly, the three snakes were trapped together, and the two quickly evacuated. Xuan Zhuyi and the other three also left the snake head and returned to Mu Jinggong's side. Song Chujiang punched the incense card into the snake's body, and the three flower snakes roared for a long time, but they couldn't break free from the bound red silk, so they could only suffer silently. After a long time, the head of the snake gradually became paralyzed, gathered together, wrapped into a ball, and gradually became a human head. This person is naturally Yi Yunchang. Yi Yunchang, who had become a normal person, lost two arms and fell to the ground exhausted, with a lot of red silk wrapped around his neck. Song Chujiang hurriedly ran over to help Yi Yunchang up, and said to Yi Yunchang, who was not very clear, with a slight cry: "Yi Lei? Yi Lei? Do you remember me? ”

Yi Yunchang opened his eyes slightly and said, "Are you ...... Are you Song Chang? ”

"I am! I'm Song Chang! How did you become like this? Who are you being taken advantage of? Tell me! Tell me okay? ”

"It's not helpful to say more. I, Yi Yunchang, have all been ruined here. Ultimately...... I still became the person I hated the most...... Scold! That's probably the greatest irony......"

"It's okay, Yi Lei. No matter what kind of person you end up becoming, I'll be there for you. Even if you kill me with your own hands one day, I have no regrets. ”

Xuan Zhuyi and the others also came over. Song Chujiang helped Yi Yunchang up and said to everyone: "Thank you for your help, let's say goodbye."

Xuan Zhuyi: "Senior? What the hell is going on? ”

Song Chujiang: "When you arrive, you will naturally understand." You just need to remember that Yi Yunchang is a talented and intelligent person, and in my heart, he is a very great monk, whether it was before, now, or in the future. It was indeed him who killed Mr. Gongsun with his own hands, but someone poisoned Yun Chang behind his back, so Yun Chang had to be controlled by them. You are still young, and there are some things that you will not understand. However, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. It is important to follow one's heart, but it is also a quality that a person should have. After that, Song Chujiang didn't say anything more, and helped Yi Yunchang out of everyone's sight. Xuan Zhuyi and the others also listened to it in a fog, but they couldn't help it, so they pretended to understand and set off for Lingxian Pavilion again.
