Yipintang is an institution set up by the Western Xia to recruit martial arts masters, at the beginning it was just to do some teaching soldiers in the army guns and sticks martial arts or to protect their own diplomatic missions when they go to other countries to strengthen the prestige of the Western Xia, and later many masters came to serve, including some strange people, but also made a lot of contributions to the Western Xia.

Tuoba Hong, who is currently the imperial historian of the palace and the head of Yipintang, is shrewd and capable, with great ambitions, and after taking office, the rewards and punishments are clear, and the deacons are fair. Deeply trusted by Empress Liang, his authority is getting heavier, and now the people in Yipintang are exploring the enemy's military strategy externally, and supervising hundreds of officials internally. There has gradually been the prototype of the Ming Dynasty brocade guard.

Early the next morning, Li Qingcang came to the front of Yipintang. Looking around, I saw that it covers an area of about 100 acres, a circle of brick walls about a foot high, and blue glazed tiles are paved on it. A pair of stone lions carved from white stone stand left and right at the main entrance, mighty and hideous, the copper nails on the vermilion lacquer gate are shining, the light can be seen, two Xixia soldiers in armor on the side of the door hold iron spears, shoulder sabers on both sides, a pair of government officials are heavy, and the people are not allowed to enter.

Li Qingcang circled around Yipintang, found a nearby high-lying slope, climbed up and looked inside for a while, but saw that the pavilions inside were covered and the trees were lush. Secretly compare the layout of the courtyard with what the patriarch said, keep the surrounding terrain in mind, where to hide, and where to retreat after success, and have a rough idea in his heart.

Then I found a grocery store, and bought a new pair of fire folds inside, thinking that if I found the military strategy and martial arts secrets of the Great Song Dynasty, it would be fine, and if I couldn't find it, I would set fire to the treasury where the documents were stored, anyway, I couldn't let the Tangut people easily get these things.

When I returned to the inn, I thought that no matter whether this matter was successful or failed, tomorrow there would be a big fanfare in the capital to arrest the important criminals. Take out a piece of silver and call the little second brother, let him feed the horses, wait for lunch, and send dinner to the room to eat, don't bother the rest of the time, and the rest of the day after settling the day's meal money is a reward. The little two went away happily. After Li Qingcang entered the house, he closed the doors and windows, and took out the leather armor that he took off from the patriarch last night. After trying it on, take off the leather armor and start wiping the single knife.

Every tiny detail before the action must not be neglected, and every time you do something, you must not think about winning and losing first. This is the truth that his father taught him when he was young. After dinner, I began to meditate and vomit, and after a week of practice, my whole body was full of energy.

When he was about to get closer, Li Qingcang changed into leather armor, cleaned up his whole body, went out of the window, and went straight to Yipintang. Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and it is a good weather for killing people and setting fires. Along the way, they swept high and low, hiding their traces, and after a while, they came to the front of Yipintang.

At this time, there were already soldiers patrolling around Yipintang, and Li Qingcang came to a tall tree near the courtyard wall, and waited in the shadows.

When the patrol soldiers walked by, ran to the tree, lifted their breath, and tapped the trunk with their toes in mid-air to borrow the force, the person had entered the canopy, squatted on the branch and looked at the courtyard, and a few lanterns on the corridor path in the courtyard moved slowly, faintly reflecting the human figure, presumably the soldiers patrolling the courtyard with lanterns.

Observing for a while, when the lantern floated away, Li Qingcang jumped into the courtyard gently, and walked towards the location of the treasury in the east. After tiptoeing for a while, he suddenly saw the lights flickering in front of him, and he was busy hiding behind the flowers.

I could only hear the footsteps from far and near, and two people walked over, one was a soldier wearing a helmet and carrying a lantern, and the other was a small man in Tsing Yi with a small hat and a food box. The little guy said as he walked: "Master Wang said that after sending Master Tuoba for supper, I want you to go to his place to drink after changing shifts." ”

The soldier with the lantern replied: "Your master is afraid that he will lose money by gambling money, and it is fake to ask Lao Tzu to drink, but it is true to borrow money." "The little guy was just a burst of laughter, and he didn't match it.

When Li Qingcang heard that he was sending supper to Lord Tuoba, he was overjoyed, and secretly said, "God help me!" Why don't you go over and take a look, if it's convenient to start, just hold this Tuoba Hong and ask for the military strategy cheats of the Great Song Dynasty, and the province will find it in the treasury. Having made up his mind, he followed the two men far behind them to a house.

I saw the soldier knock lightly on the door, and then said respectfully, "My lord, supper has arrived." ”

A deep voice came from the room: "Put it at the door, and you go down." The soldier and the servant put down the food box and left.

A moment later, the door opened, and a colorful streamer spilled out of the door, and a tall figure came out and picked up the food box and reflexively entered the room, and the light disappeared as soon as the door closed.

Li Qingcang was secretly surprised! What is it that emits such light, isn't it the rare treasure that the patriarch talked about? Curiosity, close to the wall of the house, dark luck, the "gecko swimming wall skill" refers to the steel chisel, the foot is like an iron drill, buckle the brick joint along the wall, a moment has been silently climbed on the roof, lying on the ridge, a moment, a moment, see that there is nothing strange around. Gently peel off a piece of glazed tiles on the roof, and look down through the cracks in the bushes.

I saw the colorful light flickering in the room, and the glowing thing was a strange object on the desk, the size of a goose egg, as the patriarch said, saying that it is not round, and that it is not square. The exterior is as crystal clear as the outside, and the inner is like a living thing, slowly moving, reflecting the changing colors in the room, and it is confusing.

There was also a short rod on the table, which was also shining and colorful. The light of the two things reflected each other, and the candlelight in the illuminated room was dim. In the room, a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe and five long strands of hair was eating supper with a bowl, but his eyes were staring at the glowing thing, and his face looked thoughtful. was reflected by the colored light, the light and shade were uncertain, and the expression was quite weird.

Seeing this scene, Li Qingcang had already determined in his heart that Tuoba Hong was below, since the main owner was here, all that remained was how to open the door, and then grabbed him and forced him to ask.

Looking up at the sky, when it was already ugly, my mind was already in the middle of the lightning, and I had a plan. Slowly retreat from the roof to the ground, lie down in the flowers and grass next to the house, and wait for the patrol soldiers to pass by. Standing up, he came to the door of the house, knocked lightly on the door, and said in a tone imitating the voice of a soldier who had just delivered supper: "My lord, there are people in the palace who ask to see me." "The knife in his right hand is in his hand, but his left hand is as strong as his index finger, just waiting for the door to open and catch people.

I only heard Tuoba Hongqi in the house say: "At this time, there are people in the palace coming to look for it, what is the matter?" Footsteps sounded towards the door. The door opened with a "squeak", and Li Qingcang was already full of strength at the door, and he pointed to the Fengchi point on Tuoba Hong's chest. Tuoba was shocked, but his reaction was extremely fast, his body leaned back, his chest and abdomen were tightened, his heels were forced, but his knees were not bent, and the person had already slid backwards, so clever that he avoided Li Qingcang's inevitable finger.

Li Qingcang missed a move, and secretly screamed in his heart! After thousands of calculations, I didn't count that this Tuoba Lord is a master, not only a master, but also a big master. He was unintentional and unprepared, and he was well prepared, so he avoided his secret calculations. What a underestimate of him! At this point, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and since it can't be captured alive, it can only be killed.

Xiao Wuxianggong was already born out of thought, and the knife in his right hand was already slashed away like Tuobahong like lightning, and in his eagerness, the internal force forced the head of the knife to stretch out an inch of green knife, buzzing. Li Qingcang also saw this kind of vision for the first time, and couldn't help but be very surprised, thinking that this could be the effect of practicing the "Returning to the Yuan Jue".

Li Qingcang was still annoyed and surprised here, but Tuoba Hong was even more frightened over there, the assassin who suddenly appeared was so powerful that he forced him to turn his anger sharply, and he kept retreating, and he couldn't even open his mouth to call, but he was afraid that as soon as he opened his mouth, his true anger would disperse, and if he slowed down his retreat, he would die under the knife.

The knife is like electricity, the knife is like a tiger, all the way to the force, only to force the Tuoba Hong has retreated to the edge of the desk, and then there is the wall, there is no way to retreat, as long as the footsteps stop, there is no parry, it is a mortal situation. This Tuoba Hong was also calm, his eyes were fixed on the coming of the knife, his hand grabbed the table, and he felt a hard object in his hand, no matter what it was, he raised his hand and went to the knife head.

Just listen to "Poof! The sound of the sword, like a defeated leather, has been resisted, and the hand is unharmed. Only then did Tuoba Hong exhale the stuffiness in his chest, and he was about to yell at the assassin to capture him.

However, he saw that the assassin on the other side had a look of horror in his eyes, staring at his left hand with a knife. I couldn't help but raise my eyes and look at my left hand, this look was also heartbreaking, and the souls of the dead were all rushing, only to see that the left hand was holding the crystal object that emitted colorful light.

At this time, the colored light in the object had disappeared, and a black light shot out from it, and a black hole the size of a desktop had been born in the room, this black hole stood in the air, so strange that it could not be described in words, and the air around the hole actually gave birth to water-like ripples, visible to the naked eye. The cave is pitch black, like a bottomless well! It looks like even your soul is going to be sucked out by it!

And his left hand is rapidly shriveling, the original flesh and blood arm is now gray and withered, and the strength of his body is also being lost, the fairy baby the size of a goose egg seems to be devouring his flesh and blood, trying to throw it away. But he found that he had no strength to even blink his eyes, and he could only watch his arm turn into dry bones.

Li Qingcang watched Tuoba Hong, a big living person jumping around, and in a moment, he turned from a strong and burly man to an aging man with white beard and eyebrows, and then turned into a dry corpse like a dry bone standing in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel creepy, he couldn't imagine that the thing in Tuoba Hong's hand was so terrifying!

At this time, the black hole's sucking force gradually increased, and the items in the room rolled and poured into the black hole.

Li Qingcang only felt a strong pull pulling himself into the black hole, and a chill rose in his heart, so he hurriedly let go of the knife, moved to a house pillar, and hugged the pillar with both hands.

At this time, the large objects such as tables, chairs, cabinets, and other objects in the room had been tumbled and sucked into the black hole, and the doors and windows were also sucked into the black hole, and the whole room flew towards the black hole except for the dry corpse that Tuoba Hong had changed.

Li Qingcang was also sucked up like a banner while holding the pillar, and he couldn't hold on for long. As soon as his hand is loosened, he will be inhaled into the hole, Li Qingcang's arm is gradually unable to bear the strength, and he only feels a strong wind on his face, and his long hair is sucked back and erected. The boots on the feet were the first to be torn off the footboard, and then there was a cracking sound, and the pants were also torn off, and they were all sucked into the black hole.

The situation is getting more and more critical, and Li Qingcang has no choice in his heart. Suddenly, a strange feeling rose in my heart, and I only felt that all around me was dead, and I vaguely felt that there was a trace of life in that black hole?

At this time, he couldn't hold his hands anymore, and as soon as his hands were loosened, he flew towards the black hole involuntarily.

As soon as he entered, his eyes were dark, and he was already unconscious. After this black hole devoured Li Qingcang, a living creature, it seemed that the man-eating beast had eaten enough, and it shook a little, as if it had a full burp, and the suction in the house suddenly stopped. Then the black hole began to shrink, from the size of a tabletop, to the size of a basin, then to the size of a bowl, then to the size of a fist, and finally to disappear.

However, the crystal object held in the hand of the dry corpse that Tuoba Hong had turned into was a flash of black light, and it exploded violently, and a shock ripple spread out in all directions, unstoppable, but there was no sound.

Where the shock wave passed, everything turned into nothingness, and even dust was left, and all the houses, plants, trees, earth and stones within a radius of ten zhang centered on the study room disappeared, leaving only a deep pit with a diameter of ten zhang long.

After a while, the patrol soldiers came here, and they were greatly surprised, and shouted in panic, which made the chickens and dogs jump in the Yipintang, and everyone was frightened and uneasy, and the next day the officers of all the departments came one after another, and they were all dumbfounded and did not know what to do.

Thinking that Tuoba Hong was also nowhere to be seen, and later, according to the report of Yipintang, the strange incident of the construction of the imperial tomb in Helan Mountain was contacted, and the matter was finally concluded to be a miracle. If it is not done by manpower, it will be included in the file, and it will not be done. Later, Western Xia was destroyed by Meng Yuan, and this document was destroyed in the war, but it was annihilated in the world, and no one knew about it.
