Chapter 55: Assassination

Xiao Chongguang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he was so angry that he laughed back at Cao Zixiao's remarks, so he immediately refuted: "What nonsense are you talking about!" I don't know your brother, where does the enmity come from? How to make evil? If you don't believe me, then please explain by the way, why is your senior brother wearing a night suit? ”

"Anyone can dress a dead man in a suit." Cao Zixiao still said stiffly.

Lu Yunsheng was also angry: "Cao Huwei, don't be surprised if I say a word, I've seen people who would rather die than admit it, but I've never seen someone like you who doesn't recognize the facts when they see it, if you still don't believe it, you can ask my brothers who are alive in the Tiwei Mansion and look at the martyrs who sacrificed!" ”

Xiao Chongguang took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then said calmly: "Cao Huwei, I heard you say that you have a good relationship with your Senior Brother Dou, if this matter is put on me, it will be difficult for me to believe it, but this is a fact. Otherwise, you can write a letter to Lingshi and ask you what happened to Senior Brother Dou, and maybe Lingshi will give an explanation. ”

"Okay," Cao Zixiao wiped away his tears with his sleeve, got up and said, "I'll rush back to Yangzhou this afternoon and ask for clarification." ”

"That's fine." Xiao Chongguang nodded.

After encountering such a big change, where was Zi Xiao still in the mood to eat, he only asked: "Captain Xiao, may I ask, can I take away my Senior Brother Dou's body for burial?" ”

"Of course," Sogo nodded, "today is for you to claim." ”

"I, Cao Zixiao, thank you here, for today's rudeness, I will personally come to apologize in the future." Cao Zixiao apologized to Xiao and Lu.

"Cao Huwei is serious." Sogo and Yunsheng both returned the salute.

Cao Zixiao looked at the two guards and arched his hand: "Can you ask the two brothers to do a favor and bring my senior brother's body back to my residence." ”

The two Tiwei glanced at Xiao Chongguang, but saw that the other party was silent, so he could only say, "Okay." ”

"Thank you." Cao Zixiao said in a deep voice.

Liang Tiwei thought to himself: "What evil did Lao Tzu hit today?" Good guys, carried the corpse for a day. ”

Seeing that the three people and one corpse had left, Xiao Chongguang couldn't help but sigh: "Although Cao Zixiao looks stronger than ordinary people, he is still a benevolent and righteous child in his heart. ”

"Yes, young people are young people after all," Lu Yunsheng sighed, "I don't know where the prime minister recruited him." ”

Xiao Chongguang said: "I heard that when the first emperor was alive, the prime minister was still the secretary of the military department, and when His Majesty was visiting Yangzhou in the south, Cao Zixiao's village was robbed by bandits, and the whole village was killed. ”

"The prime minister and others just passed by, met Cao Zixiao on the road, and after knowing what happened, he immediately ordered Yin Suntai, the Yangzhou Governor, to send troops to Harrier Mountain to exterminate the bandits.

"It turns out that there is such a story," Lu Yunsheng suddenly realized, "No wonder this Cao Zixiao is so righteous." ”

Xiao Chongguang chuckled: "I think it's very surprising that a person like Liang Xiang who attaches great importance to profit will still see unevenness on the road and draw a knife to help." ”

While the two were talking and laughing, the door of the room was suddenly rushed open by a powerful True Qi, and Sogo and Yunsheng had already smelled the danger, and immediately pulled out their sabers and became vigilant, and the other guards also took out their knives and put on a defensive posture.

At the same time, with a piercing sound of unsheathing, a black shadow attacked from outside the door, a little cold light flashed, and the sword tore through the surrounding air with the sound of breaking wind.

This attack came suddenly, wrapped in full strength, and everyone present could only dodge left and right immediately in a hurry.

But listening to the "click", the table in the center of the room was directly split in half by the sword qi.

The figure flickered, but when he saw a slender man in a black cloak break into the room, he swung his sword and slashed.

"What an endless list of assassins."

Lu Yunsheng gritted his teeth, his position was close to the wooden door, he naturally bore the brunt, and immediately threw his knife to block, swords struck each other, and there was a sound of gold and iron colliding.

The rest of the guards were about to step forward, but they were stopped by Xiao Chongguang stretching out his hand: "Don't worry, there is only one person on the other side, let your deputy guard have a good time." ”

When the guards heard this, they stopped and watched the battle.

Looking at the battle situation again, the black-cloaked man saw that the attack was blocked, and immediately drew back his long sword, squatted down with his legs, and swept away with his lower body shining on Yunsheng's calves!

Seeing this, Yunsheng immediately shrank his legs, flew into the air, and with the help of the momentum of movement, turned defense into attack, and looked at the head of the black-cloaked man slashing obliquely.

The attacker, seeing that Yunsheng not only dodged his own moves, but also took advantage of the situation to attack, couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly raised his sword to catch Yunsheng's knife momentum.

I don't know if the black cloak is too small, or if Yun Sheng's luck is strong, although the assassin reacted in time, he couldn't stand up to the volley with all his strength, and was suddenly shocked to the ground with a weak leg, and fell directly to the ground, and at the same time spurted blood from his mouth.

Lu Yunsheng landed steadily, and said strangely in his heart: "This person is so small, his martial arts are not high, and he actually dares to come and assassinate alone when the number of people is completely unfavorable, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a specially trained assassin." Could it be that he wasn't part of the Assassin Order from last night? ”

Thinking so in his heart, the offensive in his hand did not decrease, and he continued to swing his knife and slash straight over.

The black cloaked man's body had already been hit hard, and he only felt that his internal organs had been knocked to pieces, and when he saw Yunsheng attacking again, he could only use the last bit of strength to resist.

"Boom!"

The swords were intertwined, and then there was a piercing crashing sound, but the black cloaked man did not dare to go further after receiving the move because of his lack of strength, so he had to retreat.

"Your strength is too small."

Lu Yunsheng sneered, and at the same time took the initiative to attack again, stabbing with a knife.

Seeing this, the black-cloaked man retreated to the base of the wall, and sighed back slightly, seeing that Yunsheng's position was only three steps away from him, and suddenly, he slammed his sword into the air!

He urged all the true qi of his body into the sword, and then controlled it with one hand, constantly waving it in mid-air, and even turned into a sword shadow, at first glance, it looked like a hundred flowers blooming, but they fell one after another.

The sword body trembled, making a sword roar, and the air around it swept away, and even those chairs and cracked tables were scattered, and the black cloaked man's sword momentum was completed, so he wrapped his sword qi phantom and counterattacked!

Remnant Flower Sword Technique - Falling Ying is colorful!

Lu Yunsheng was shocked, he saw that the signs were wrong, and he was about to retreat, but because the distance was too close, it was completely too late, and the other party had already forced himself in front of him!

"Not good! Get away with it! ”

Xiao Chongguang exclaimed, and immediately flew forward, and the guards also ran quickly.

"Whew!"

Right now. A sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded, and the cold light appeared, but when he heard the black-cloaked man cry out in pain, he was obviously hit by something, so the long sword was crooked, but it only touched Yunsheng's arm, but the sword momentum was still unabated, and he was directly knocked out, hitting the wall solidly, and fell to the ground again, vomiting several mouthfuls of blood.

The black-cloaked man also dissipated the true qi in his sword in advance because he was secretly attacked, covered his thighs, and fell to the ground, but he was obviously a little unsteady on his feet, and he saw that he was hit by a serpentine dart on his leg.

The guards took advantage of the opportunity and rushed forward with a shout, captured him alive, and confiscated his sword, and at the same time lifted the black cloak from his head, and when they saw the man's true face, the guards were all taken aback, it turned out that this assassin was actually a beautiful woman.

"Yunsheng!"

Xiao Chongguang ignored the female assassin and instead hurried to Lu Yunsheng's side to examine his wounds.

I saw that Yunsheng's face was pale, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his whole body had lost his strength, and his left arm was cut by the sharp sword just now A terrible opening, dripping with blood, and flesh and bones could be seen. If this blow hits Yunsheng's chest, I'm afraid that it will be the liver that will be cut open at that time.

Sogo immediately lit Yunsheng's acupuncture points, stopped the gushing blood, and then ripped off a piece of clothing and bandaged him simply.

"Brother Xiao, I said I could help you."

At this time, a clear voice sounded, and everyone followed the reputation, only to see Yan Lingfeng jumping in from the window with an arrow step.

It turned out that the darts on the black-cloaked man were secretly placed by him.

Sogo frowned, "You won't follow us since we went out, right?" ”

"Of course," Yan Lingfeng wiped his nose and said, "Otherwise, where would I have a chance to save that idiot." Brother Xiao, don't you know, I spent a long time lying on the window with a stick of incense. ”

"You don't deserve it," Sogo sneered, "This time, it's okay to see if you save Yunsheng, don't take it as an example, otherwise, I'll go and tell Master Nie that you are disobedient, and when the time comes, see how Master Nie treats you." ”

"Brother Xiao, you are an adult, why do you still use the whistleblower."

Yan Lingfeng shouted, he is not afraid of the sky, he is not afraid of the earth, but the only one he is afraid of is his teacher Nie Yuntian.

"You, you stinky boy, who did you just say was stupid?" Lu Yunsheng sat up and stared at Ling Feng and asked.

"Whoever gets hurt is stupid." Yan Lingfeng pouted.

As soon as the words fell, Yun Sheng and the female assassin blurted out at the same time: "Stinky boy, what are you talking about!" ”

Ling Feng didn't expect that the assassin next to him also happened to be slandered by him, and turned into two people who questioned him together, and this sudden sound made him tremble.

Yun Sheng and the female assassin subconsciously glanced at each other, and soon both snorted coldly, and immediately separated again.

"Be quiet!" One of the guards who had captured the female assassin shouted.

Xiao Chongguang got up, slowly walked towards the female assassin, and asked with a straight face, "Who are you?" Why assassinate us? ”

The female assassin raised her eyebrows: "Although you are wearing the clothes of ordinary people, I still recognize that you are all the guards of the Tiwei Mansion. ”

Chongguang said coldly: "Do you know that Tiwei still dares to assassinate?" Why are you doing this? We shouldn't have offended your Pomegranate Palace. ”

The female assassin was shocked when she heard this: "You actually know that I am from the Pomegranate Flower Palace? ”
