Chapter 52: A Long Talk
"'Ghost Tsing Yi' Zhou Xiaoting!"
When everyone heard this, they all changed color, the twelve killers of the cold-blooded hall of Tiantuo Mountain, who doesn't know about the rivers and lakes today?
Although the Cold-Blooded Hall is just a small assassin organization with a very small number, the people who can join the hall are all outstanding in kung fu, especially the twelve people who are the leader, but they are all top masters in the martial arts, and "Ghost Tsing Yi" Zhou Xiaoting is one of them, and she is the only female killer among them, an assassin who is famous for her sonic martial arts.
She once created her own "drama sound gong", seriously injured 28 people in Xuzhou Weiyuan Dart Bureau, they did not die, but were shocked into deafness by the sharp sound, not only that, but even the brain will be penetrated, cut off the nerves, become delirious madman, it is more terrible than a knife to end the other party's life, the means of viciousness, so that everyone in the rivers and lakes shuddered.
"If my guess is correct, the trick that Shen Youlan used must be the swordsmanship inherited by Zhou Xiaoting, the 'poisonous snake sword technique' of the Black Snake Dao people. Sword Art Cloud: Where you hit, you will be dead. It just coincides with what Brother Ji said. However, I can confirm that it was not her master who rescued her, but another good assassin. Lu Yunsheng analyzed.
Ji Yun's pupils shrank: "No wonder that woman is so vicious, it turns out that the master is the killer of the Cold-Blooded Hall, there must be a disciple if there is a teacher." โ
Yun Sheng's face was solemn and said: "The poisonous snake sword technique focuses on the word 'poison', and you must practice with the sword of poison, fortunately, you are not injured by her, otherwise, tonight you will either give first aid in the infirmary, or prepare to be buried in the morgue." โ
When Ji Yun heard this, he felt a chill on his body, he had walked the rivers and lakes for many years, and he had seen many thieves, murderers, villains and robbers, but it was the first time he had seen that such a slender woman would be more insidious and vicious than those bandits.
"This Zhou Xiaoting is not ordinary," Xiao Chongguang stretched out his hand to support the table, "She had tangled with Huang Chuanfeng, who was also the Twelve Killers, with a group of thugs two years ago, and instructed them to make trouble in Lingnan County, Yangzhou, smashing, looting, and burning, doing all kinds of evil, and also disguised as innocent farmers who were violated, in the name of the so-called resistance to the oppression of the farming law, attacked the county yamen, in fact, she wanted to occupy Lingnan County, fortunately, the Tiger Ben Army was stationed in Pengfei City, Qingzhou, and quickly supported to eliminate this gang of thugs. โ
"I also know about this matter, I heard that it is the overseas barbarian country, which spends a lot of money behind the inducement, and the real purpose is to take the coastal Lingnan County as its own and become the frontier position for the future invasion of our Chu State, and at the same time disturb the stability of our Great Chu. It is said that at that time, some Hu people had already entered Lingnan County and waited for them. Sure enough, if it is not my race, its heart will be different! Guo Ting said indignantly.
Chongguang said: "Those old things, don't mention them, anyway, there is a Great Chu army, the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it." From this situation, we can at least conclude that the assassination of Liu Yuanzhen is no longer a simple matter of grievances, behind this, there must be a specific organization, carefully arranged, premeditated, and tasked, assassination plan against court officials. โ
"The assassination of the imperial court officials is tantamount to conspiracy, and it is no different from rebellion." Guo Ting said.
Ji Yun said: "According to the clues we have so far, can it be determined that the Cold Blood Hall has been involved?" โ
"This conclusion cannot be ruled out, but Zhou Xiaoting did not show up, and it may be Shen Youlan's private doing." Lu Yunsheng put forward his own ideas.
"If the Cold-Blooded Hall joins, things will be in trouble. That group of killers is not easy to solve, and once they are provoked, they will inevitably attract endless revenge. Xiao Chongguang raised his head and said.
"Brother Xiao, looking at your appearance of 'worrying about the sky', could it be that you are afraid?" Lu Yunsheng laughed teasingly.
"Hey, what am I afraid of?" Xiao Chongguang rolled his eyes, "I'm just worried that it will be difficult to do things thoroughly, which will not be conducive to the safety of Your Majesty and the people of the city." โ
"Brother Xiao, although my martial arts skills are not as good as these thieves, you can rest assured," Guo Ting patted his chest and said, "With my old Guo in one day, no matter what cold-blooded hall or hot-blooded hall he is, if he wants to gnaw on the Eastern Capital, even if he can't let go of their blood, he has to break off a few of his front teeth." Even if I fight for my life, I will not hesitate to do it. โ
Xiao Chongguang waved his hand and said, "Hey, Brother Guo, don't say anything about life or death, it's too unlucky, we just need to do our best." โ
"What, your saber is gone?"
Lu Yunsheng suddenly said this, and Chongguang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and looked at the empty scabbard on his waist before he smiled: "Wow! It's not the last time I attacked you, but I took a lot of effort to deal with him, and the edge of my knife was cut to pieces, so I just gave it up, and tomorrow, I went to the armory to get one. โ
Yunsheng sighed: "Alas, Brother Xiao, your martial arts and character are excellent, but you lack a divine edge, look at Li Jin of the Mingjing Division, hanging a 'tiger spirit' on his waist, how majestic." โ
Sogo still smiled and said: "We are guards, and we are not here to be prestigious, as long as we can do a good job, even if we buckle a plow on my belt, I will admit it." โ
"Hahaha, if you really hang a plowshare, can your waist stand it?" Lu Yunsheng laughed.
When the other three heard this, they also laughed with deep meaning in their eyes.
"Ahem, serious, serious." Sogo coughed lightly, tried to make his expression serious, looked at Guo Ting and Ji Yun and said, "The two brothers have worked hard today, I have arranged your accommodation room in the east wing, you can rest early." I know that the two brothers are not very familiar with our guards and some things in the court, so you will be in the mansion tomorrow, learn some common sense of officialdom first, and it will be more convenient to act in the future. โ
"Got it." Guo and Ji nodded, and then resigned.
After they left, Lu Yunsheng spoke: "Brother Xiao, I heard from the brother who inquired about the news, you showed your power today and defeated that giant sword assassin, I know that your martial arts are extraordinary, and those previous moves are just the surface of it." โ
Xiao Chongguang said: "Martial arts don't have to be known to others, leaving a few tricks to hide, and it can also prevent unscrupulous people from investigating." โ
"You're talking about Kagamiji?"
"And they're not the only ones."
"But you hide too deeply, and sometimes you go out to handle cases and arrest people, but you don't want to show it."
Lu Yunsheng remembered that the last time he caught the prince guard who was eavesdropping on the partition wall to lead Yang Lan, Xiao Chongguang was completely pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, if he used real martial arts, Yang Lan would have no chance to escape.
"In the past, most of the time, it was in full view of everyone, especially when people other than Tiwei appeared, so I couldn't do it," Xiao Chongguang was silent for a while and said, "My master has a life, and the kung fu I learned from him must not be used lightly, only in times of danger and as a last resort." โ
"What's the point of learning that? What kind of rule is this? Yunsheng pursed his lips and whispered.
"Yunsheng! Don't be disrespectful to my teacher! โ
Xiao Chongguang's ears are sensitive, and he heard Lu Yunsheng's words clearly, and he immediately said angrily.
Yun Sheng saw his round eyes and upturned eyebrows, and he was so frightened that he immediately crossed his hands to apologize: "I am open-mouthed, I am very rude, I can't make amends with Brother Xiao, I hope Brother Xiao doesn't have to care." โ
Sogo sighed: "The rules of my master are indeed difficult for ordinary people to understand, but I hope you can understand that he has his own difficulties. โ
The old calendar of Great Chu was 34 years old in Longxing, Yuzhou, Bauhinia Mountain, and ugly
The full moon and stars hang high above the inky darkness of the night.
The Chu army, dressed in red robes and golden armor, with a spear in one hand and a torch in the other, marched towards the Xingyanzong on the top of Bauhinia Mountain.
Liang Ziqing was dressed in armor, with a red bronze sword at his waist, riding a yellow horse, dignified appearance, majestic, at this time he was only in his early thirties, his face was white and flawless, his face was radiant, and he was a high-spirited young general.
Next to him, there is also a white horse general, with a golden armor cloak, wearing a phoenix-wing helmet, a handsome face, and a bit of grace, looking at his appearance, it is clear that he is the current Chu Emperor when he was young, but at this time he is only Song Jizhao, the prince of the East Palace.
Soon after, a scout Pegasus reported: "Prince Yu, Liang Xianxian, the advance army led by Lord Wang has broken through the gate of Xingyanzong, and is only waiting for reinforcements from the army." โ
Liang Ziqing nodded: "I know, you ask Lord Wang Zenghou to stay for a while, and we will be there immediately." โ
"Whoa!"
The scout was commanded, and Pegasus went again.
Song Jizhao asked with a worried face, "Ziqing, can we really beat Xingyanzong?" I heard that all of them in their sect are first-class masters, and I'm worried about ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
"Prince, please relax, we have thousands of troops, and no matter how high their martial arts are, they can't help it." Liang Ziqing comforted.
"I hope so." Song Jizhao sighed.
Liang Ziqing pulled out the sword at his waist, turned back and shouted to the sergeant behind him: "The warriors of Dachu, Jianxun is in front of you, follow me to kill!" With that, he rode his horse and galloped forward with Song Jizhao.
Seven thousand sergeants shouted in unison, and then ran wildly.
The army of black oppression immediately swept through the Star Yan Sect like a surging tide.
The two sides quickly exchanged hands, and the sound of shouts of killing and the clashing of blades shook the earth.
Xu Shaoyang, the sect leader of the Xingyan Sect, had his white hair scattered, and shouted with his sword: "What is the crime of my Xingyan Sect?" Why does the imperial court want to destroy my sect! โ
Wang Zenghou rode a horse and hid behind the soldiers, and said with a wicked smile: "What a madman! The Xingyan Sect intends to contact the foreign clan to rebel! Conclusive! There is still a face to question the court? โ
"I, Xingyanzong, have always lived in seclusion in the mountains, and I don't ask about the world, so why do I rebel? Someone must have framed him! Xu Shaoyang argued sharply while resisting.
"Humph! Until now, you still dare to be hard-mouthed! Forget it, you're going to die today! The Star Yan Sect will also die! Liang Ziqing, who was also on the battlefield, shouted.
Xu Shaoyang's eyes were bloodshot to red due to extreme qi, and the whole person shouted in despair almost madly: "Oh my God! I didn't expect the Xingyan Sect to be cut off in my hands! No matter who frames my Xingyan Sect, I curse him not to die well! Those who attack my Star Yan Sect today will also be punished by God in the future! โ
"Ahh
Liang Ziqing woke up from the bed and sat up.
He was sweating profusely, his eyes were round, and he was panting heavily.
"Xiangye! What's wrong? โ
Cao Zixiao hurriedly came in with a lantern and a group of guards, and asked.
Liang Ziqing took advantage of the light of the lantern to see the surroundings clearly, which was the room of the Xiangfu that he was familiar with.
"I'm fine, I just had a nightmare." Liang Ziqing said, "What time is it?" โ
"Today is the thirteenth day of the lunar month, the end of the ugly." Cao Zixiao replied.
"That's right." Liang Ziqing muttered a little distractedly.
