Volume 1 The First Involvement in the Warring States Chapter 037 The Sword in the Sleeve

There was no nonsense, no bells and whistles, Hou Rong was like a wild leopard attacking, leaning forward like lightning, and directly attacking Zhu Hai.

Seeing that Hou Rong had already made a move, Lu Yu also quickly pulled out the short sword from his arms and stabbed at Zhu Hai.

This angle was grasped just right, Lu Yu's face was just blocked by Hou Rong, and he had not faced Zhu Hai head-on for the time being.

That Zhu Hai also reacted very quickly, and the meteor hammer in his hand swung out, and the pumpkin-like copper hammer shot towards Hou Rong like an arrow off the string. Hou Rong didn't dare to make a hard connection, so he could only dodge sideways, and Lu Yu was also busy slashing at the soft rope of the copper hammer with his short sword. At this time, Rong was only three or four steps away from Zhu Hai, and suddenly punched Zhu Hai again.

The lack of space caused Zhu Hai to use the weapon inconveniently, so he could not use it with all his strength, so he had to change the direction of the copper hammer with his strength, and bent his knee against Hou Rong's elbow, blocking his punch. Without waiting for Lu Yu to get close, Zhu Hai turned the long handle in his hand again, only to hear a crisp metallic sound of "Zheng", and a sword blade of about three inches popped out from the end of the handle and stabbed at Hou Rong. Lu Yu was shocked, seeing that the direction of the copper hammer was aimed at Hou Rong's back, and he hurriedly intercepted it with a short sword.

There was a sound of fighting outside, and it was thought that Zhang Wu was dealing with the people outside.

At the moment when Zhu Hai's sword blade collided with Hou Rong's right arm, another piercing metallic sound sounded. In Hou Rong's right arm, there was a sword hidden!

The two swords intersected, sparks splashed, and Hou Rong hooked his left fist like lightning.

The cuff of his left arm that he swung out, the blade of the sword also popped out, and it turned out that he was using a double sword in his sleeve.

At this time, Lu Yu's short sword just intercepted the copper hammer, stuck the soft rope, and stepped on the ground with his foot.

At this time, Zhu Hai saw clearly that it was Lu Yu, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Lu Yu boy! How dare you plot against the old man! ”

Lu Yu sneered: "Go down and talk to King Yama!" ”

Seeing that the weapon was controlled, Zhu Hai couldn't help but be shocked, hurriedly took a big step back, and quickly released the long handle with his left hand, and went to draw the sword at his waist. How could Hou Rong give him a chance, he bullied himself while he was retreating, unfolded the word entanglement, and danced with his two swords, not allowing Zhu Hai to have a moment of respite.

Lu Yu seized the opportunity, and with a strong swing of the short sword, he slashed at the soft rope.

Another sparkle flew around.

The short sword was broken in two, but at the same time, Zhu Hai's meteor hammer was also abolished. This is the disadvantage of heavy weapons, no matter how powerful you are, you will not be able to reach it in terms of speed, as long as the copper hammer is stuck, you can't pull it back at the same time in dealing with a melee attack like Hou Rong. And Lu Yu guessed that the soft rope of the meteor hammer should also be made of special materials, which is difficult to cut in ordinary fights, but as long as the copper hammer is stuck, it will be different to cut it with a sharp sword. Sure enough, the moment it fell, the soft rope splashed with sparks, it seemed that it should have been mixed with metal, but it turned out to be so tough that it was necessary to pay for a short sword.

Zhu Hai lost the meteor hammer, and only the remnant of the blade was left in his hand, although he was entangled by Hou Rong, and the sword at his waist could not be unsheathed, but he was still barely able to cope. Lu Yu spotted the opportunity, quickly pulled out the dagger in his arms, and stabbed Zhu Hai almost close to Hou Rong's armpit.

Hou Rong's body and fist are the "Snake Fist Method" in the "Yin Fu Seven Methods", Lu Yu is extremely familiar, although the movement when he passes out from his armpits is not elegant, but it is skillfully avoiding Hou Rong's hands, let alone affecting his moves. The two snakes attacked at the same time, where is Zhu Hai's opponent? Although Lu Yu's dagger flew into the air, it made Zhu Hai stagger back, and with a "bang", his back had hit the wall, and there was no way back. With Lu Yu suppressing him, Hou Rong no longer has to be distracted by the kung fu under his feet, and the double swords in his sleeves are like spiritual snakes, which is dazzling.

blocked Lu Yu's dagger, and couldn't stop Hou Rong's double swords. Suddenly, Zhu Hai shouted violently, and his right hand was hard to hit Hou Rong's sword, but he took the opportunity to grab his left hand and slammed his forehead into Hou Rong's door. It was too late, and in this lightning and flint, Lu Yu suddenly made a swallow soar into the sky, and the dagger in his hand opened from Zhu Hai's lower abdomen to his lower jaw like killing a pig, and before it was over, he stabbed his heart with his backhand.

Suddenly, the intestines flowed to the ground, blood splattered everywhere the dagger went, and the scene was so bloody that even Lu Yu didn't dare to look back. But Zhu Hai still let out the terrifying screams and struggles before he died, and the two of them were splashed with blood, as if they had been sprayed wet by someone who had turned on a faucet.

Hou Rong lowered his head and shouted as a signal to inform Zhang Wu, and said to Lu Yu: "Let's withdraw quickly." ”

Lu Yu saw that his entire face was stained with Zhu Hai's blood, and he believed that his situation was definitely not much better than him. The two took off their blood-stained coats and still came out of the window.

Two guards fell in the courtyard, and the sound of metal intersecting was heard. The two jumped from the eaves and jumped into the backyard, only to see a person fighting and retreating behind them, who was also dressed as a civilian, and that should be Zhang Wu. Hou Rong directly pushed Lu Yu to the back wall, and he retreated to Zhang Wu's side to help him get rid of the haunted guards. Since the dagger was in his heart when he killed Zhu Hai just now, Lu Yu didn't have any other weapons in his hand now, so he ran a little, rushed to the bottom of the tree, quickly climbed up, and then jumped up the tree to the wall.

At this time, Rong had already helped Zhang Wu solve the remaining guards, and the two of them also climbed to the wall one after another.

Zhang Wu was the last to go up the wall, and as soon as he got on the wall, he pointed to the wall and shouted: "Not good! Look! ”

Lu Yu looked at it and secretly called Mom, not far from under the wall, a person with dozens of warriors rushed towards the martial arts hall. Looking at it, the leader was Ximen Hou. At this time, he also found the three people on the wall, only to see that his eyes showed a fierce light, and shouted: "Hurry up and catch them!" At the same time, he drew his sword and led the samurai towards the martial arts hall.

Hou Rong shouted softly, "Disperse!" He pulled Lu Yu to jump off the wall, and Zhang Wu quickly jumped off the other side. Seeing that Simon was about to catch up, the three of them hurriedly split into two and fled.

I don't know how many detours, Hou Rong and Lu Yu got rid of Ximen Hou behind them. For the sake of safety, Hou Rong dispersed with him in two directions.

Fortunately, after escaping here, Lu Yu already knew the way, went through an alley, and deliberately turned over two private houses before he came to the back door of Zuilanfang. According to the agreement, the back door was just a cover, Lu Yu quickly came in, immediately bolted the door, and rushed directly to Yu'er's room.

Yu'er was also anxiously waiting at this time, and when she saw Lu Yu's hair spreading, her face showed joy, and she hurriedly got up to greet her, and asked, "Is it done?" ”

Lu Yu nodded, he was about to be unable to support himself after a long time of running, and he didn't care about drinking water to quench his thirst, so he immediately asked Yu'er to help him remove his clothes, wash the mud makeup on his face and the blood stains on his body.

Unexpectedly, before he could get dressed, there was a strange noise downstairs, and then a noise.

Lu Yu and Yu'er glanced at each other, but they didn't expect them to chase here so quickly.

When Ximen Hou kicked the door open, Lu Yu and Yu'er exclaimed at the same time. Ximen Hou was stunned, because what he saw was that on the bed, Yu'er only had a Luo Yi left on her body, hugging Lu Yu's neck, and Lu Yu's upper body was naked, pressing on her delicate body. A large quilt just covered their lower bodies, blocking the parts that shouldn't be seen.

And the clothes on the ground are in disarray, and the spring is infinite.

Lu Yu hurriedly used his body to block Yu'er's delicate body and asked, "Brother Simon, why is he in such a hurry?" ”

Ximen was stunned, Lu Yu clearly saw him swallow a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help but secretly scold him in his heart for being a pervert. Ximen Hou glared at Yu'er's body fiercely again, and then said to Lu Yu: "Brother Lu, something is wrong, I bother you to get dressed, and the younger brother is waiting outside the door." With that, he retreated first, and the samurai behind him withdrew, closing the door.

Lu Yu broke out in a cold sweat, and Yu'er was also a little nervous, Lu Yu felt that her hands holding her were trembling, and both of them could clearly hear each other's heartbeat. In the quilt, the basin of water for Lu Yu had overflowed a lot, and the bed had already been wet, and the lower bodies of both of them were soaked. When Yu'er found that her hand was still around Lu Yu's neck, and the two were clinging to each other tightly, she hurriedly let go of her hand, and her faces turned red on both sides.

Lu Yu hurriedly climbed out of bed, put on his clothes with his back to her, and arranged his hair again, before turning around and whispering softly in her ear: "Be careful." Then he walked out of the room without looking back.

As soon as he came out, Ximen Hou said to him: "Brother Lu is still here, but he doesn't know that there is a commotion outside. ”

Lu Yu pretended to be at a loss and asked, "What happened?" ”

Ximen Hou approached him and whispered, "Mr. Zhu Haizhu was killed in the Samurai Pavilion just now. ”

Lu Yu's eyes widened, and he pretended to be disbelieving and said to him, "Brother Simon is joking, right?" ”

Ximen Hou glared at him and said, "How can the little brother joke with such a thing? Don't hide it from Brother Lu, the younger brother had already seen those three assassins in the hotel just now. ”

Lu Yu pretended to be nervous and asked, "Did you catch anyone?" ”

Ximen Hou sighed and said, "I haven't caught half of it, and the junior brother has already sent more people to track it down." Jun Shang is now in the hotel, and Brother Lu will go with his younger brother. ”

When we arrived at the hotel, it was heavily guarded, not to mention hundreds of people.

If they were kept like this from the beginning, Lu Yu and their plan might not be able to be carried out by the way. Zhu Hai's body had been taken away, and the room had been cleaned up, only to see Xin Lingjun alone in the room, thinking about something. Seeing him and Ximen waiting for the arrival, Xin Lingjun opened his mouth and asked, "Is there any news?" ”

Ximen Hou replied respectfully: "Your Excellency: The villain has sent people to search all the nearby houses, and he will not let go of any information. ”

Xin Lingjun slapped the case and said angrily: "If Ben Jun finds out who did it, he will definitely be told to break his body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

At this time, a person hurriedly walked in, and Lu Yu saw that it was the fake Long Wuzhi. After glancing at Lu Yu, he said to Xin Lingjun: "The villain searched a house nearby, and found that the house had been moved out a few days ago, and there was nothing inside, suspecting that the assassin had been planning for a long time. ”

Xin Lingjun scolded: "Isn't this nonsense? Don't hurry up and investigate, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death! ”

Long Wuzhi agreed, and immediately retreated.

Lu Yu deliberately stepped forward and said, "A few days ago, we killed Long Yangjun's men, will Mr. Zhu be retaliated against?" ”

Xin Lingjun was stunned when he heard this, and said a little vaguely: "Benjun also has some doubts. ”

Lu Yu laughed secretly in his heart, Xinlingjun had words of suffering, but he couldn't help but pretend to agree with Lu Yu's words.

At this time, another samurai came to report: "Qiyu Jun, the villain picked up a waist card in the backyard." As he spoke, he handed over an object, and Ximen Hou took the thing and handed it to Xinlingjun.

Lu Yu wondered in his heart, why is there a waist card? He would never wear such a thing, and with the carefulness of Zhang Wu and Hou Rong, it would never be possible for someone on Xinlingjun's side to catch the handle in the action just now. At this time, Xin Lingjun had finished reading the waist card in his hand, and saw him slap it on the case, with an angry face. Lu Yu was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty..."

Xinling Jun asked Ximen Hou angrily: "Do you recognize this thing?" ”

Ximen Hou took the sign and studied it in his hand, and Lu Yu saw that the wooden sign was square, with sleek corners, and a seal character carved on the front, which was an upper and lower structure, like two birds flying with wings spread above, and a Japanese character below. Lu Yu thought quickly in his mind, and suddenly realized that this word was the word "Jin" in the seal body.

This brand, could it really be that Zhang Wu or Hou Rong deliberately fell?

At this time, Ximen Hou also put the waist card back on the desk, and said to Xinling Jun: "According to the villain, this Jin waist card is likely to be him..."

Xin Lingjun waved his hand to stop Ximen Hou's words. I saw that his expression was gloomy, and he seemed to think of some sad things, and muttered: "Old Zhu, have you seen Hou Sheng down now?" ”

Ximen Hou and Lu Yu glanced at each other, not knowing what he was talking about.

The candidate mentioned in Xinlingjun's mouth is called Houying, and he is the strategist of Xinlingjun Wei Wuji. At that time, Xinlingjun was still a son, Wuji. And it was someone who introduced him to Zhu Hai, the butcher in the market. When Handan was besieged by the Qin army, the King of Wei originally wanted to send troops to rescue Zhao, but was warned by the King of Qin. Intimidated by its might, the King of Wei hurriedly sent people to stop the general Jin Contempt, who was about to go on the expedition. Hou Sheng tried his best to obtain a talisman for Gongzi Wuji, and took Zhu Hai to take over the army of Jin Contempt. As a result, Jin Contempt suspected fraud after checking the military talismans, refused to hand over the military power, and was killed by Zhu Hai at a critical moment. And Hou Sheng even committed suicide to motivate Childe Wuji.

It was with the army of Jin Contempt that Gongzi Wuji became famous overnight. Therefore, Hou Ying and Zhu Hai have a very important position in Xinling Jun's heart, and until today, Zhu Hai finally lost his life in Huangquan and abandoned him.

Lu Yu had seen this story somewhere a long time ago, and after listening to what Xin Lingjun said, he knew the weight of the love between them, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. However, people can't be resurrected after death, and each is its own master, Zhu Hai, as an important arm of Xinling Jun, is a person who must be eliminated, and Lu Yu has no other way.

After Xin Lingjun finished speaking, he returned to his terrifying anger, gritted his teeth and said: "Back then, Ben Jun thought that he was born and died for my Great Wei, and it was a last resort to kill him, and in the past ten years, he has allowed his people to stir up trouble in every way, and Ben Jun has also ignored a lot, if this matter is really done by other people, Ben Jun must be buried by his whole clan for Zhu Lao!" ”

He said to Lu Yu again: "In two days, you will escort the princess to Handan, and tomorrow the king will summon you to the palace first. ”

Lu Yu and Ximen Hou responded loudly.

Xin Lingjun said again: "Even if this matter is not done by Long Yangjun's people, it is definitely related, you tell it to be done, it must be done, this gentleman hopes that the sooner the better!" With that, he held his forehead with one hand, and waved to them with the other: "You stand down first, and this king should be alone and quiet." ”

Xin Lingjun is really treacherous, and a single waist card will never make him eliminate his suspicion of Long Yangjun.

The two of them responded in unison and withdrew.

It seems that Lu Yu was right, Zhu Hai's death did cause a certain blow to Xinlingjun, Housheng would never introduce an ordinary butcher to him back then, and with Zhu Hai's ability, he was able to stay by Xinlingjun's side for so many years, which shows this person's ability. If it is said that the candidate is his left arm, then no one can take the position of the right arm except Zhu Hai. If Zhu Hai was not removed, even if Lu Yu left the Wei State smoothly, Long Yangjun's side would never be so happy. If Xinlingjun catches the opportunity, he will definitely get rid of Long Yangjun openly.

No wonder Long Yang Jun will vigorously agree to get rid of this person, now the identity of King Wei in the palace is doubtful, Long Yang Jun is equivalent to losing half of the backer, if Xinling Jun continues to sit big, then Long Yang Jun "" The fight with him will be defeated. So this plan can be said to be using each other, Lu Yu and Zhang Wu avenged Xiao Zhengwen, and Long Yangjun and Hou Rong won a round.

The struggle between Xinlingjun and Longyangjun began to become more and more intense.

After coming out, Ximen Hou apologized to Lu Yu and said that he couldn't send him back to his house, and ordered a warrior to drive him back in a carriage.

Lu Yu returned to the room, and sure enough, Ling Fan and Dai Ji were together.

As soon as he saw him come back, Daihime immediately threw herself into his arms and sobbed, "Daihime was frightened just now!" Mr. Simon broke in, if it weren't for Xiaohuan, Dai Ji really didn't know what to do! ”

Lu Yu was stunned, and when he saw Ling Fan looking at him, he was a little overwhelmed. Daihime in his arms, neither is he hugging him, nor is he pushing it away. I had to ask: "Don't be afraid, take your time, what happened?" ”

Dai Ji sobbed and said: "An hour ago, Xiao Huan was talking to Dai Ji in the room, Mr. Simon kicked the door angrily, and when he couldn't see you, he shouted loudly to the two of us, fortunately Xiao Huan immediately said that you went to Zuilanfang in the morning, and he slammed the door and left." ”

Lu Yu thought to himself that Ximen Hou really doubted himself. If he hadn't come to Lu Yu's room first, Ximen Hou might have chased him to Zuilanfang early in the morning, which was really dangerous. When he looked at Ling Fan, he only heard her say lightly: "The slave maid has been accompanying Dai Ji here, but Lu Ye is getting along with other women in the Zuilanfang. ”

Lu Yu was embarrassed, although Ling Fan said this on purpose, he also heard the vinegar in her words. was about to explain, but heard her say again: "Since Lu Ye is willing to come back, Xiaohuan is also about to retire." ”

After saying that, he smiled mischievously at Lu Yu and hurried out.

Lu Yu felt funny in his heart, this woman's heart is really unguessable, she is jealous for a while, and she smiles at you for a while, hot and cold, which makes people itch.

Dai Ji raised her head and asked Lu Yu with a crooked face: "Why does Dai Ji always think that Xiaohuan has a very strange attitude towards you?" ”

Lu Yu secretly thought that the woman had an accurate intuition, and gently hugged her little waist and said softly: "She is just a maid in the house, how can there be any strange attitude, it is Dai Ji who is too worried." ”

When I saw her rosy cherry lips, I couldn't help but kiss it.

Dai Ji let out a "huh", hugged Lu Yu tightly with both hands, and reacted enthusiastically, not knowing what he was afraid of.

After a while, Lu Yu gently pushed her away, it was not completely dark, he didn't want to be unable to control himself and get along with her at this time, if Ling Fan went and came back, it would be something he didn't want to happen.

Suddenly, he thought of the meaning of the name Ling Fan. Xiaohuan, Huan, the world. Maybe it has something to do with Yu'er. Yu and Yu add up to Yu Yu, which is the immortal hall where the legendary immortals live, and Ling Fan may have been angry at that time, so he named himself as a slave and maid as Xiaohuan. Huanyu is the universe, and it is naturally higher than "Yuyu".

This is undoubtedly a naked challenge to Yu'er.

Daiki was a little surprised that he suddenly pushed herself out of his arms, and her eyes were full of complaints.

Lu Yu didn't dare to look at her, took her hand and said, "You haven't been out of the room since you came here, have you?" Go, I'll take you to meet my little brother. ”

Daihime is naturally obedient and obedient, like a tame little sheep.

When he came to Xiao Zhengwen's room, Lu Yu found Ling Fan who was "peeping" outside the door, and couldn't help but feel funny, and deliberately coughed loudly a few times. Ling Fan glared at him faintly before leaving.

Dai Jiqi said: "Doesn't Xiaohuan need to serve Madame?" Why is it here? ”

Lu Yu laughed and said, "Maybe this slave is often lazy." ”

Xiao Zhengwen saw Lu Yu arrive with a strange woman, and said strangely: "Second brother, this is..."

Without waiting for Lu Yu to answer, Dai Ji had already walked over kindly, took Xiao Zhengwen's little hand and said, "You are Lu Ye's little brother, right?" ”

Xiao Zhengwen looked at her, then at Lu Yu, and said mischievously: "I am the second brother's sworn brother, Xiao Zhengwen is also, you can call me Xiaowen, or you can call me Master Wen or Xiao Ye." ”
