The thief stood in front of the chair, quite a heroic end,

Seeing Lan Ziyi and them at the door, the thief did not resist, but just smiled bitterly:

"Lei Youde, you are a good means!"

With that, a sword pierced his throat, and he pressed his hands on the hilt of the sword and pushed forward to cut off his head.

At first glance, this thief is skillful with knives, and the section of the neck is flat and neat, without a little unevenness.

As the head hit the ground, blood gushed out of the thief's body, splashing all over the ceiling.

The hut behind the government may be a bedroom or a study, it is not big, the candlelight is fluttering, the lights and shadows are flickering, and the light and shadow shake the visitors and shake them together with the house.

At this time, the blood splashed, and the red did not drive away the cold yin in the house, but added a strong smell of blood to the house, which made the room even more gloomy and cold, like the underworld.

Lan Ziyi, who was standing at the door after the thief fell, saw the king of heaven on the chair behind the thief,

The King of Heaven drooped his head, staring at the floor in front of him with his eyes distracted, motionless, letting the rain of blood wash on himself, staining the King's eyes red,

The King of Heaven is still wearing the colorful feather coat he wore when he last met Lan Ziyi, but his chest was stained red with blood, as if the King of Heaven had vomited himself.

However, Lan Ziyi could see that the Heavenly King's mouth was closed, there was no blood on his lips, and the blood stains on his body were flowing from the wound on his neck.

The Heavenly King was already dead, and sitting on the chair was his stiff corpse, and the moment Lan Ziyi's gaze fell on the Heavenly King, the candle on the table was finally blown out by the wind.

The smoke outside the house gradually spread into the house, mixed with the original bloody and murderous atmosphere, although the small room was not arranged, but it had become a mourning hall, used to place the body of the Heavenly King,

The sky outside the door was stormy, the starlight and moonlight were like nothing, and the declining light shot into the house and hit the body of the king, shaking the king as if he was in another world.

Lan Ziyi raised his sleeves and gently covered his nose to shield himself from the smell of blood in the room, Lan Ziyi had also seen a bloody scene worse than this, but Lan Ziyi just wanted to block this smell out today, at least let Lan Ziyi put some respect for the king in his heart.

This king of heaven still has some ways to do, and he is dead upright.

Tao Zhulu saw Lan Ziyi raise his hand to cover his nose, clenched his fists and said:

"The young master atoned for his sins, it was my fault that I failed to stop the thief who committed suicide just now, and I failed to let the young master catch him alive."

On the side, Tao Zhutu also said:

"Young master atonement, I am also at fault."

Lan Ziyi didn't answer, and only put his hand down after a while, but his eyes never left the body of the Heavenly King.

兰子义 says:

"The two brothers are polite, this thief moved too fast just now, and it's normal that he can't react."

Seeing that Lan Ziyi didn't move, Tao Zhulu stepped into the house first, stepped over the corpse of the thief who had just fallen to the ground and came to the king, grabbed the king's hair and pressed the king's head back to the backrest.

Tao Zhulu examined the wound and said:

"The corpse is stiff but not hard, and in my opinion, the king has been dead for about five hours."

After Tao Zhulu entered the house, Lan Ziyi also followed in, and was slightly surprised when he heard this, and asked:

"Five hours? Second brother, you read that right, right? We didn't have much time to get here, and the scout came back to report that the delay was not even half the time of five hours, which was unbelievable. “

Tao Zhulu looked at it again and said:

"I may not be able to see it accurately, but it was about five hours, not like I had just been killed."

Peach Rabbit said at this time:

"Listening to the thief's shouting outside the house just now, he didn't seem to know that the king of heaven had died in the house."

桃扵鹿 says:

"The thieves are all gone, why is the King still here? And it was someone who cut his throat and locked it in the house, and the defenders outside the house are very likely to not know about the death of the king, what is going on? “

Lan Ziyi walked up to the Heavenly King, looked at the white eyes of the Heavenly King and said:

"Do you still remember the disposal method of Lei Youde that Mr. Wen Ruo analyzed before? Now it seems that Lei Youde is going to kick away the king and do it himself. “

Hearing this, Peach Rabbit asked:

"But in that case, why did Lei Youde leave the body in the mansion?"

兰子义 says:

"No matter how capable Lei Youde is, killing the master is always an ugly thing, it's too ugly to spread out, and it will make his subordinates learn the same.

And the homeless people who have just joined the gang are not good at stubble, I think Lei Youde still wants to borrow the demon law to control the thieves, so he left the body of the king here...... Leave it to me.

The servants guarding the Heavenly King outside had been fighting hard for a corpse, and they didn't know it. “

桃扵鹿 says:

"Since none of the king's attendants knew that the king was dead, the other thieves wouldn't know about it.

So Lei Youde is going to blame the young master? “

When Lan Ziyi heard this, a sneer hung on his lips, and he said:

"Blame? I think he's giving me a gift. “

Then Lan Ziyi avoided the corpse behind him, took a few steps back, and said:

"Beheaded him off and sent him to Jingshi.

Third brother, you go to the capital in person and make a contribution to me. “

Hearing this, Tao Zhutu hugged his fist and took his life, and Tao Zhulu took out his waist knife from the scabbard, looked at the corpse of the Heavenly King, and was about to make a move, and said before swinging the knife:

"The fate should be Wuchen and the moon should be Mao, and the red clothes and silver should be wrapped in the sky of Beijing

Now it's Zhu Yi and silver, it's really the right time. ”

Lan Ziyi heard Tao Zhulu sing these two sentences without a beginning and an end, and asked:

"Second brother, what are you singing?"

Tao Zhulu replied:

"This is a popular saying among the thieves and the army, saying that the king of heaven promised everyone that he would enter the capital to inspect before the first month of the Wuchen year."

Lan Ziyi thought for a while and said:

"This year seems to be the year of Wuchen."

桃扵鹿 says:

"The young master is right, and February hasn't passed yet, so I will send the heads into the capital as soon as possible, and it will definitely be within the month."

Lan Ziyi couldn't help but smile and shook his head, there are always some fools in this world who feel that they are the chosen ones who inherit the destiny of heaven, but fate is always reflected in people in a very ironic way.

Before he was about to swing the knife, Tao Zhulu remembered another thing, turned around and asked Lan Ziyi with a smile:

"Didn't the young master say that he wouldn't rob it? Why are you in a hurry to send me back to the capital now? “

Lan Ziyi heard Tao Zhulu's question, and replied with a smile:

"Of course I don't fight, but I can't help but eat the meat that is brought to my mouth."

Then Lan Ziyi turned around and went out, saying as he walked:

"The third brother can only go south to Luzhou when he enters Beijing, I estimate that there is a great possibility of meeting King De on the road, and if I don't get the credit, I will rob King De.

But if you can get lucky enough to get into Beijing, you can also make us a success, and it never hurts to try. “

Saying that, Lan Ziyi walked out of the house, and Tao Zhulu chose a good direction, cut it out with a knife, and neatly cut off the head of the king of heaven.

The soldiers in the government are still searching the yamen in groups, for fear of missing the thieves and allowing the fish to slip through the net.

However, the thieves who committed suicide in front of the Heavenly Throne were already the last thieves in the palace and even in the city, and the soldiers were actually only left to clean up the battlefield.

Although Tao Zhuhu and Li Guangzhong's team are still in the other two directions of the city and have not returned, but the Heavenly King has died in the city, Lan Ziyi can rest assured that he can sleep, the mansion is a good place, but so many people have died, even if he can clean up tonight, he will not be able to sleep.

Lan Ziyi came to the outside of the mansion, and a sergeant had already found an inn, which was full of things and could just rest.

So Lan Ziyi instructed one or two, ordered Tao Zhulu to prepare to patrol the city, Tao Zhutu also found a place to rest and rest, and went to the capital early tomorrow morning, and then Lan Ziyi went back to the room to rest.

Maybe it was because of the killing of the thief Kou Tianwang, Lan Ziyi was in a particularly good mood, and he slept very comfortably this night.

Although Lei Youde's army is outside, the location has not yet been determined, Lan Ziyi's subordinates are still short of major generals, and the beheading of the Heavenly King is only symbolic, and this symbolic victory is also due to Lei Youde, but this is the first time since the victory outside Yuzhou City that night that there has been some gain, even if there are still many annoying things put aside for the time being, let's sleep tonight.

Lan Ziyi slept soundly this night, and in his sleep he dreamed that he was leading the sergeants to pacify the thieves, and was walking on the road into the capital, and was welcomed by the people.

Lan Ziyi was naturally full of spring breeze, and hugged his fists high to thank his father and fellow villagers.

The city wall of the capital has approached, the city gate is in front of him, and he is about to enter the city, suddenly the team behind Lan Ziyi has all disappeared, and the people who welcome him have also disappeared without a trace, Lan Ziyi was frightened in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to call someone, but a white-fronted tiger jumped down from the city gate and blocked Lan Ziyi's way.

Lan Ziyi was shocked, he wanted to draw his sword but couldn't touch it, and he wanted to turn the horse's head but there was no horse to ride.

The fierce tiger stared at Lan Ziyi and paced back and forth, and suddenly flew up with a long roar,

Lan Ziyi screamed in his dream, and then woke up sweaty.

After settling down, Lan Ziyi realized that he was just dreaming.

Lan Ziyi sat up and spat a few mouthfuls on the side of the bed, scolding the bad luck, then got up and found the copper basin for washing, wiped his face and sobered up.

It was already bright outside the window, and Lan Ziyi was not in the mood to continue sleeping, so he put on his armor and went outside.

On the way out, Lan Ziyi was still recalling the dream he had just had, could it be that there was something missing in the city? What important military intelligence has not yet been discovered? Or even that Lan Ziyi fell for Lei Youde's tricks again? Why is there a roadblock at the end of the dream?

Thinking that Lan Ziyi came to the inn, he wanted to find a sergeant to ask about the situation, but he happened to meet Tao Zhutu and ordered people and horses to prepare to leave.

Since he caught up with Tao Zhutu to go to Beijing, Lan Ziyi immediately went over to arrange a few words, and instructed Tao Zhutu to go southwest after going out, and take a boat to the south on the dock in the southwest of the city, which is much faster than riding a horse and walking.

After sending Tao Zhutu away, Lan Ziyi asked the sergeant where the generals were, and the sergeant replied that the other three generals, Tao Zhuhu, Tao Zhulu and Li Guangzhong, had already arrived at the palace, and according to the order, the soldiers came to report that Qi Rongxun led the main force to open at dawn, and was about to enter the city today, and General Sanwei was discussing the matter of welcoming and arranging the stationing,

So Lan Ziyi asked the sergeant for horses and went to the mansion.
