Chapter 11: Shangguan Junyue (3)
The Peach Blossom Source Inn under the cliff lit up a fire, is there a fire?
Jing Ge stood on the edge of the cliff, saw this scene, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he turned around and ran down the mountain wildly.
"In the first war in the past twenty years, there must be a lot of spies in the Xiliang Qi Kingdom to check the situation, and the Fifth Division will naturally not let go of this opportunity." Shangguan Junyue said.
"Are you in such a hurry to die?" Shangguan Junyue shouted behind him.
The Fifth Division was the secret intelligence agency of the Great Qin Empire and was only accountable to the Emperor. even has the right to deal directly with the officials of the imperial court, and I don't know how many officials died tragically in that gloomy prison. The spy eyeliner spread all over the country, collected all kinds of military intelligence information and reported it to the headquarters, mastered countless secrets, and it was also a means used by the Qin State to deal with the Xiliang Red Spider.
"My friend is still there." Jing Ge ran faster.
When Jing Ge returned to the Peach Blossom Inn, there were several corpses lying on the ground, already dead, belonging to the shopkeeper and a few guests. Most of the inn was burning, Jing Ge hurriedly rushed to the second floor, pushed open the room where Yu Jue was, and there was no one.
A wooden hairpin was left on the bed, Jing Ge went over to pick it up, turned around and ran out of the inn, and the inn behind him collapsed in the fire and fell into nothing.
Shangguan Junyue also returned.
"Why didn't you remind me?" Jing Ge was a little dissatisfied, and he was also a little worried about Yu Jue.
"I'm sorry, I thought you could think of it." Shangguan Junyue said slightly apologetically, she didn't use this to mock Jing Ge for boasting about her intelligence and peerlessness on the top of the mountain before.
"Didn't those two men remind you?"
Nima, Sun Changqing and Zhuge Yin, the two sluts, no wonder they left overnight, Jing Ge thought to himself.
Most of them think that I am like them, expecting that the Qin State Eagle Dog will attack here, and they have their own ways to deal with it, so they don't need to be reminded. But I didn't know there was such a thing as a Fifth Division.
Jing Ge felt very depressed, and what was even more depressed was that in the brilliant firelight, dozens of black-clothed people surrounded the three of them.
"You guessed someone was going to attack here tonight, so why didn't you alert your guards." Shangguan Junyue was accompanied by a team of guards, but now he has disappeared.
"For their lives." Shangguan Junyue replied lightly.
There are only a few guards, obviously she already knows the existence of these men in black, and those guards will not escape death if they resist, so it is better to let the people of the Fifth Division capture them back, maybe there is still a chance of life.
"So, these people aren't from the Fifth Division, they're coming for you." Jing Ge said.
"Yes."
"That's good."
"Brothers, I'm just passing by, I'm not in the same group as them, I'll leave first if there's nothing to do."
Jing Ge raised his hands in the air, and while surrendering loudly, he walked out towards the gap surrounded by dozens of black-clothed people.
The scene was quiet, there was not a single murmur, except for the beep of a burning flame. The leader of the men in black looked at him. One hand was raised.
Jing Ge's back was already soaked, he was very nervous, he knew that when that person's hand swung down, those people with bright swords would rush up and cut him into eighteen pieces, and now he could only pretend to be calm and walk out.
But the leader's hand didn't wave, he had already shifted his gaze to Shangguan Junyue's body, no longer paying attention to Jing Ge, and he walked out of the encirclement like this.
To be precise, the leader's gaze was on a jade box in Shangguan Junyue's hand.
"Miss Shangguan, give it to me, and I'll let you go." The leader of the man in black with a black veil stared straight at him.
"What a boldness, you dare to grab something from the Prime Minister." The maid in Tsing Yi shouted.
Shangguan Junyue didn't speak, this group of people in black may not be smaller than the prime minister, as long as they are clean, why don't they dare.
"He's strong, at least not weaker than me, and I can't protect you from leaving." The maid in Tsing Yi whispered to Shangguan Junyue.
Shangguan Junyue nodded calmly and handed her the jade box in his hand.
"I'm sorry, do you have anything you want me to bring to General Shangguan?" The maidservant took the jade box.
Shangguan Junyue shook her head, and the maid in green clothes didn't say anything more, and directly turned into an afterimage, swept out quickly, and fled into the distance.
The leader of the man in black watched her hand over the jade box to the maidservant, and his eyes were full of fierceness.
"Leave two people and send one to Miss Shangguan. Do it cleanly. ”
The maidservant was not Shangguan Junyue's personal attendant, but was sent by the prime minister to take her back to Kyoto. In fact, the prime minister sent to pick up the only purple lingzhi in the Medicine King Valley, which was used to renew his life.
The man in black felt the strength of the maid in green clothes, and her light skills were excellent, and he thought about what the consequences would be if this mission failed. couldn't help but shudder, didn't dare to delay for a moment, and took someone to chase the servant. He wanted to snatch the purple lingzhi.
The remaining two black-clothed men didn't say a word, holding a long knife and forcing forward, Shangguan Junyue's face was as usual, and there was no trace of panic in sight. There is even a mood to comb slightly messy hair.
The two men in black are trained dead soldiers. Usually there is no emotion to speak of, and only meticulously executes orders. At this moment, seeing Shangguan Junyue so calm, with a look of a bamboo in her chest, she was faintly a little uneasy, if it weren't for the fact that Shangguan Junyue was just a weak woman who was proficient in medical skills, she really thought she was a peerless master.
Is she really not afraid of death?
The man in black raised his long knife and aimed it at her snow-white neck, and before he could cut it down, a companion beside him slowly fell limp.
His reaction was quick, and he turned around and slashed sideways, blocking a short arrow, which was stuck in the back of his companion lying on the ground. The speed of the dark arrows shot from behind these two was very slow, and it was worthy of piercing the skin. If it weren't for a sneak attack, it would have been easy to block with the strength of the two of them.
The person who came out was naturally Jingge who didn't go far. With all his might, he threw two steel arrows that only scratched the skin of one person, but the venom of the mandala flower quenched on them left a man in black unconscious.
The other man in black narrowed his eyes into a slit, but he didn't expect that the timid young man just now was not frightened, and dared to come back and attack them.
Jing Ge took out the dagger and held it in his hand, and calmly walked towards the man in black, while at the same time recalling the moves that Ye Xin taught him in the broken temple.
The bright long knife was slashing at Jing Ge, Jing Ge was engrossed, and the sound of the long knife cutting through the air clearly indicated that this knife was enough to cut a person into two pieces. But Jing Ge had an illusion that the speed of this knife was not fast, and he could easily dodge it.
Jing Ge slid a step back when the long knife swept by, dodging it, and then quickly stepped forward. The man in black didn't have time to react at all, and at this moment, Jing Ge realized that his speed had become so fast. He reversed the dagger and slammed the handle of the dagger into the temple of the man in black, knocking him unconscious.
Jing Ge exhaled a long breath, looked at Shangguan Junyue with a calm face and said, "How do you know that I will come back?" ”
Shangguan Junyue stood in front of the ruins of blood and fire and smiled, as if she had returned to the past. The thin figure stood in front of him, and there was nothing to fear.
"Of course I know, you just said you wanted to protect me."
"If you hadn't taken that thing out before, the men in black wouldn't have let me go, and they'd be suspicious of me." Jing Ge said that she was the one who helped her out of danger first.
"Kill them two, let's get out of here." Shangguan Junyue approached him.
"Uh... Why kill them, let's just go. Jing Ge felt that there was no need to kill, and he couldn't bear to do it.
"They are outlaws, they have their own way of death, and besides, mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself." Shangguan Junyue glanced at him.
"Nope." Jing Ge shook his head.
"Am I wrong?" Shangguan Junyue walked up to him.
"Even if it's right, I don't want to kill." Jing Ge replied that he couldn't be ruthless enough to kill people.
Shangguan Junyue snorted coldly and snatched the dagger from Jing Singer. Walked up to a man in black and pierced the dagger through the gap between the two ribs in the man's chest. Effortlessly inserted into the heart, pulled out, and wiped out another person's neck.
Precise and elegant.
Jing Ge inexplicably remembered the phrase that the most poisonous woman's heart, and there was no one who held grudges more than women.
"What, you think I'm too cruel and don't like me anymore?"
"Miss Shangguan, in fact, I'm quite afraid that you will cheat me, I just thought about it, and your calmness doesn't seem to be because you believe that I will protect you. It's all in your calculations, you use the box to get the attention of those people, let me go, and then give the box to the maidservant. Let her lead those people away, and expect me to come back. If I'm not mistaken, all you gave her was an empty box. ”
"Haha, at least you're not worthy of my trust, and you don't have the strength to protect me. Purple Lingzhi, I'll leave it to you for me to keep it now. Shangguan Junyue took out something from his arms and threw it to Jing Ge.
"It's horrible, it's horrible. I'm leaving, not with you. ”
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
"Now I don't even believe punctuation in what you say."
"Smack." There was a crunch. "Hmph."
"Wow,, I saved your life anyway, why do you do it again." Jing Ge covered his face and said.
"Do you believe me?"
"I don't believe it very much."
Syllable.
"I'll give you another chance to answer again."
"Faith."
"Actually, you're really special, your skin is super thick, and my hands hurt when you beat you." Shangguan Junyue rubbed his palms and said.
"Miss Shangguan, can you not always pretend to be very calm and unfazed, you are not a fairy, just a girl, you should have seven emotions and six desires, live freely, laugh when you should laugh, cry when you should cry, don't you?"
"Hmph, what do you know about an idiot who broke your soul." Shangguan Junyue pinned her face to the side and didn't look at him.
"Come on, Niu'er will give Ye a smile." Jing Ge reached out and picked her chin.
"Looking for death, aren't you?" Shangguan Junyue pushed his hand away, his eyes were furious, Qiong nose gritted his teeth, and said. If it was ordinary, she would never make such an action, maybe under the influence of Jing Ge's words just now, there was a slight inexplicable change.
It's only been one night to see him, so many things have happened, his words and deeds are so maverick, they are far from when he was a child, and I don't know what he has experienced over the years. Shangguan Junyue thought secretly.
The two figures walked side by side, disappearing into the vast night. It was the first day of their reunion.
It was also on the first day that Shangguan Junyue knew that he would never be able to maintain a calm and calm temperament in front of this person.
