On the tenth day of the first month, Luoyang, the capital of God, is outside the door.

After the morning bell, the city gate opened as usual, and the robbery not far away the day before seemed to have been forgotten, as is the case in a metropolis like Shendu, as long as it is not their own business, few people will really care.

Not far away, a carriage drove slowly, driving a man, thirty years old, wearing a dark round-necked robe and cloth robe, with a handsome face, long beard, thin, and a sword behind his back, the sword was wrapped in black cloth, this person was Li Ke.

The carriage drove under the city gate, and the city gate order blocked the way, ready to check the identity of the visitor. At this time, a person came out of the city, it was Xue Liang, he walked to the city gate order responsible for inspection, and took out the Liang Wang token from his arms, the city gate order saw that it was the Liang Wang token was shocked, and immediately prepared to kneel, Xue Liang pulled the city gate order that was about to kneel, and whispered: "This person is the distinguished guest of the King of Liang, and I hope that the city gate order will be convenient, and the king of Liang will be grateful in the future." The city gate Ling looked embarrassed, but still said: "Since he is a distinguished guest of King Liang, then... Release! ”

Xue Liang took out a silver bag from his arms, stuffed it into the hand of the city gate commander, and whispered: "There is labor! So he jumped into the carriage, looked at the driver, nodded slightly, and motioned to go on, and the city gate order was no longer obstructed.

A moment later, the carriage arrived outside the palace of King Liang, the person in charge of the reception outside the house was the Dali Temple Qing Wujiang, seeing the carriage stopped, he immediately stepped forward to greet him: "I have heard the prestige of Li Gongzi for a long time, King Liang specially ordered me to wait here to greet him, King Liang has been waiting for a long time, please also enter the mansion." ”

Li Ke didn't answer, but just bowed his hand, turned around and lifted the curtain behind the car, and whispered: "It's here, come out." I saw a woman out of the car, it was Li Ke's wife, also wearing a plain cloth robe, covered with black veil, holding a sleeping boy in her arms, the boy was about three or four years old, although the woman was covered with black veil, but from the eyebrows can see that her female appearance must be very beautiful, the three got off the carriage and followed Wu Jiang and Xue Liang all the way to the study of Liang Wang Wu Sansi.

Wu Sansi couldn't wait to see this person, and he was already waiting in the study, and whether he could seize power from the prince this time depended on this person. As soon as a few people entered the door of the study, Wu Sansi immediately greeted them with a smile and said, "Mr. Li and Mrs., please sit down, it's hard work all the way!" ”

King Liang is so enthusiastic, Li Ke is panicked, as a person who has just committed an incident, this kind of courtesy is really not daring to accept it, and the person in front of him is still the big celebrity Liang Wang Wu Sansi above the court, the power covers the sky, he is so enthusiastic, he is a little uncomfortable, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Thanks to King Liang's love, I am in trouble here, King Liang is willing to take it in, I am grateful, I never thought that King Liang is so courteous, Li really dare not be." ”

Wu Sansi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Where is it, Li Ke, the sword god of the Western Regions, kill one person in ten steps, and the prestige of leaving a name for thousands of miles shocks the world, the old man has already heard of it, and I just hope to see it!" ”

As soon as Wu Sansi said this, Li Ke was even more frightened, he was still standing, but now he wanted to kneel, Wu Sansi grabbed him, pointed to the futon, and motioned for them to sit down and talk.

As soon as he sat down, Wu Jiang on the side spoke: "I heard that Li Gongzi's swordsmanship is like a god, Wu has always wanted to see and see, I don't know if I am lucky?" ”

Xue Liang heard Wu Jiang say this, his face was a little uncomfortable, he knew that this matter must be instructed by Wu Sansi, otherwise Wu Jiang would not dare to make a mistake, but after thinking about it, such an important matter should be handled by Li Ke, and it is natural to test it, but it is indeed a bit rude for this person to be like this as soon as he arrives, so he hurriedly said: "Li Gongzi must have been in a hurry all night, why don't you take a break and show it again?" ”

Li Ke was not stage frightened, and replied: "It's okay, just click until you get there." ”

Xue Liang was about to speak, but Wu Jiang preemptively said: "There are several Wu Hou under Wu, and they have been lacking training, so I will ask Li Gongzi for advice today." After speaking, he clapped his hands and ten people immediately came in the study, all holding swords, and Xue Liang recognized these ten people. These ten people are the Wuhou under Wu Jiang, these ten people are the top ten personal guards under Wu Sansi, each of them is one in a million martial arts masters, this is not good, Xue Liang hurriedly said to Wu Sansi: "King Liang, is this inappropriate?" Wu Sansi didn't answer, Wu Jiang continued: "The study is too narrow, let's compete outside the hospital." Ladies and gentlemen, please! ”

Li Ke motioned to his wife to stay in the house with the child and go out to compete by himself, and the woman said, "Be careful!" And he spoke no more.

Outside the house, ten warriors were ready, and Wu Jiang said: "Li Gongzi, you can choose one of these ten people to compete, you have no eyes in your fists and feet, you have to worry." ”

Li Ke glanced at the ten warriors in front of him, and said in a positive voice: "Don't delay everyone, you ten can go together." ”

"What?" When Wu Jiang heard Li Ke say this, he was immediately shocked, is this Li Ke planning to die? He originally thought that Li Ke's reputation might be blown out, these ten warriors are all good at one in a million, and any one of them can fight with them, this competition is a test first, and secondly, it is also ready to give Li Ke a dismount, so that he can be less arrogant and obey King Liang's orders with peace of mind. How can it be that he wants to challenge ten so suddenly, and if he doesn't get it, he'll die here?

Xue Liang also felt that it was inappropriate, and hurriedly said: "Li Gongzi, do you want to think about it again, it's tiring to travel and horses, or try it one by one?" ”

Li Ke said again firmly: "No need, let's go together." ”

Wu Sansi was happy, it was the first time he had seen someone like Li Ke, so he said with a smile: "Li Gongzi is really courageous!" Good! This king also wants to open his eyes, so let's start! ”

Hearing King Liang's order, the ten warriors couldn't help it for a long time, how to say that they were also one of the best masters in this god capital, and now someone actually wanted to challenge ten of them at one time, which was a great humiliation for them, so they rushed up, ready to dismantle Li Ke into eight pieces, in order to vent the hatred in their hearts. Seeing this, Li Ke quickly took out his long sword from behind him to face the battle.

But what happened next shocked everyone present, in less than twenty snaps of their fingers, ten warriors had already fallen in response, and there was no strength to get up, and the sword in Li Ke's hand had not even been unsheathed, and Wu Jiang and the others' jaws of shock were about to fall to the ground.

At this time, the boy in the house woke up, stood at the door of the room and said, "Grandpa is trying martial arts with others again?" Taibai was woken up by Grandpa again. ”

As soon as Xiao Taibai said this, he called back everyone who was still in shock.

Wu Sansi said loudly: "From this moment on, Li Ke is the captain of Shenlong, full-time to assist Liang Wangfu in investigating the case, and his family temporarily lives in Liang Wangfu, and the supply of food and clothing is responsible for Liang Wangfu. The subordinate soldiers and officials of the Liang Wangfu can be called if the case is necessary. I will now enter the palace to ask for an order, and Li Duwei will ask for a rest in the palace for a while, and I will return to the palace to discuss matters. ”

"Whoa!" Li Ke returned the salute.

Wu Jiang entered the palace with Wu Sansi to face the saint. On the step, Wu Jiang said, "That... That Li Ke's martial arts are really outstanding, breathtaking! Wu Sansi didn't respond, and he himself was still in shock, how could there be such a strong person in the world, so I am afraid that even Qin Qiong and General Wei Chigong, who were beside Emperor Taizong back then, were not his opponents, and the Sword God of the Western Regions really lived up to his reputation.

Wu Jiang continued to speak: "This kind of martial arts, even if the robbery and killing of the caravan outside the gate was done by him alone, I believe it. ”

"What did you say?" Wu Sansi suddenly drank like this, and Wu Jiang didn't dare to answer. Wu Jiang's unintentional sentence really reminded Wu Sansi, could this matter have anything to do with it? Even if it doesn't matter, I must not mention in front of the empress that this person's martial arts are so high, or it may arouse the empress's suspicion. Thinking of this, he also told Wu Jiang what he was thinking about, and repeatedly instructed him.

In this way, Bu Bao drove all the way into Ziwei Palace.
