Chapter 266: Between Life and Death (Part II)

The only thing Lu had to rely on was the ability to make time stand still suddenly. However, he didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to do it after he hadn't used this trick for a long time, so he wouldn't take the initiative unless he had to.

But now, as the Japanese man went down to the river little by little and slowly searched for it, Lu Zhen had no choice but to take the risk and try it. After taking a deep breath, Lu Zhen let go of Yu Wanting's hand, which had been clenching, and completely sank his body into the water, and then swam slowly and silently towards the location of the widow with a knife.

If it weren't for the fact that it was late at night and the sky was pitch black, it would have been impossible for Lu Zhen to approach from underwater. But now, under the cover of the night, he really touched it little by little, and the distance between the two was getting closer and closer, five zhang, three zhang, one zhang......

Clenching his fists and concentrating, Lu Jin's feet slammed into the water, and with the rebound of the water, he suddenly jumped up. Without the slightest hesitation, the short blade in his hand was directly stabbed into the chest of the unprepared Japanese man in front of him.

In Lu Jin's plan, the moment he comes out, he can control the time around him, and the other party is bound to be still. As long as you give yourself even the slightest chance, this knife can pierce the opponent's heart and kill the enemy with one blow! And then think about dealing with another wolf.

But at the moment when he thought he was about to succeed, a sudden change occurred!

The widow who should not have been able to move actually screamed softly, and the sword in his hand was lifted and flovered, and it happened to block the path of Lu Jin's stab! "Choke!" At the same time, with his angry shout, Lu Jin's tiger mouth was numb, and even the short knife was knocked out of his hand.

"How so?" Lu Zhen didn't expect that he had tried a hundred times in the past, and the ability to help himself kill the enemy and protect himself many times didn't work this time, and his heart immediately tightened. But before he could recover from the panic, the man kicked him in the chest.

When Lu Jinden was hit by a giant tree, the whole person was kicked sideways by this kick, and in a miserable snort, he smashed back into the river with a bang.

The fight on this side immediately attracted the second wolf, who was still looking for clues in the woods on the other side, and he immediately turned and leaped up, only a little on the road, and his body jumped high again like a ball that touched the ground, and swooped straight towards the river.

However, it is clear that the situation here is completely unsuitable for him to come to help. After kicking Lu Zhen into the water again, the widow already laughed evilly, raised the knife in his hand, and moved forward quickly, and in a blink of an eye, he ran to Lu Jin, who had just taken a breath, and in the loud shout, the knife had drawn an arc in the darkness, straight to Lu Jin's chest.

The Japanese forging swords, it all has to go through countless tempering, countless attempts to chop and chop before it can be used by these ronin warriors. It is said that famous knives such as Muramasa used the torsos of living people, and the judging criteria were how many living torsos could be cut with one sword.

The real treasure knife can split three carcasses or even five carcasses, maybe this Japanese man's knife is not in the realm of a sword treasure knife, but obviously as long as he is really cut by it, Lu Zhen will also end up with a knife and two sections.

But at this time, he was in the water, and he was kicked again, and he hadn't even fully adjusted his breath, let alone dodged, I was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to get up. So when he saw this knife attacking, he could only watch.

The "......" knife fell with a strong wind, and Lu Zhen couldn't help but close his eyes. This time, it seemed that he was really going to die. He clenched his fists several times just now, but he couldn't stop time, and even this last straw had left him.

Beside him, a sharp cry sounded, it should be the sound that Yu Wanting made when she saw that she was about to be killed, but this obviously couldn't stop the Japanese from killing herself.

I have traveled to this era of the Ming Dynasty, although it has only been four or five years, but I have a lot of feelings for the people here. I have also thought about changing this prosperous world on the surface, but there are many crises inside. It's a pity that these ideals will completely come to naught with the fall of this knife.

Maybe he's the most failed of all the traversers, right? In the past few years, not only has he achieved almost nothing in his career, but until now he is only a government official, and he doesn't even have a woman who really belongs to him...... Think of it as a dream, hoping that when I wake up again, I will be back in the 21st century, 500 years later.

Countless thoughts come to my mind, all saying that people can see their lives before they die, and this is the proof of this statement. Lu Zhen couldn't help but think, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, and even Yu Wanting's exclamation stopped, but why didn't the knife fall yet?

Lu Zhen opened his eyes suddenly, but what he saw was the one who stood in front of him, holding the sword high, but did not cut it down. At this time, his face was full of shock and pain. With a whimper from his mouth, his legs weakened, and he knelt down into the river with a bang, and the whole person lay on the surface of the water.

"This is ......" It wasn't until the other party fell down that Lu Zhen finally understood the reason for all this change, only to see that a two-foot-long arrow was still trembling slightly into his back!

"Judge Lu Tong, are you okay?" With a shout, several horses rushed straight towards them like a whirlwind. It wasn't until they stopped on the road on the bank of the river that the widow who had jumped up and jumped just now also slammed to the ground. On his body, there were also two arrows nailed, one into the heart and the other into the throat, completely taking his life!

It took a long time for Lu Jin to come back to his senses, looked at the few men in red clothes on the shore, and hesitated: "Yang Baihu...... You saved me? ”

Seeing Lu Jin's stunned look, these people on the shore couldn't help but laugh, they were the elite of the brocade guards led by Yang Zhen.

Just now, when Lu Zhen wanted to fight to the death, Yang Zhen had already led someone to rush to the scene. When they found out that the Japanese wanted to kill Lu Jin, they were still a hundred steps away from the place where the accident occurred.

At this moment, it was obviously too late to rush to the rescue, so Yang Zhen immediately made a decision, took out the crossbow machine he was carrying, and shot an arrow at the Japanese who were swinging his knife in the distance and wanted to slash the fatal knife.

This was made by the craftsmen of the Imperial Court Shenji Battalion, and it could only be used by the most trusted armies of the Son of Heaven, such as the Forbidden Army, the Jingying Sanwei, and the crossbow machine used by the Jinyi Guard. Although he was separated by a hundred paces, he only shot the target in the blink of an eye, and penetrated through his back and into his heart, killing him instantly.

At the same time, the other two brocade guards also raised their hands and shot arrows at the other Japanese who were rushing towards the riverbank. Unsuspecting, he didn't have time to swing his sword to block, and the arrow pierced his chest and throat, and he was shot before he could scream.

Soon, Yang Zhen and the others dismounted and galloped quickly to the riverside, and stopped Lu Jin, who was trying to support Yu Wanting: "Let Lu Tong be frightened." ”

Lu Jin's face was still pale at the moment, and he didn't know if it was caused by being overly frightened, or because the river was too cold. Hearing this, he still cheered up and hugged Yang Zhen: "Thank you Yang Baihu for coming to the rescue, you saved me again." ”

To talk about it, Yang Zhen has really saved Lu Zhen many times. There was one time in the capital before, and then in Hangzhou, if he hadn't warned him in time, I am afraid that Lu Zhen would have fallen for Xie Jingchang's tricks. And this time, he rescued Lu Zhen under the knife of the Japanese people, which made Lu Jin really sincerely grateful to this brocade guard.

It's just that he is still a little puzzled, why did even the people of Jinyiwei come here this time, and they actually ran all the way here?

Seeing Lu Jin's question, Yang Zhen pointed his hand at Yu Wanting, who was shivering with cold at this time: "Actually, we are here to rescue Miss Yu." As he spoke, he had untied the big coat he was wearing and wrapped it around the girl's slender body: "Miss Yu, I've frightened you." ”

I see, Lu Zhen finally understood this. They did all this to protect the people of the Yu family.

In the city of Hangzhou, when it comes to the big family or something, the first reaction of many people is naturally the family of the four wealthy landlords Xie Zhao Suchang. But in fact, in the eyes of many people in the government, the first family in Hangzhou should be the Yu family. Because there is a well-known Yu Qian in his family.

Today's Yu Qian does not have the reputation of a few decades later, but in the court, he is already a famous minister that everyone admires. Although he is not an official in Beijing, in the past few years, every performance is enough to arouse the amazement of the court, and also seek countless benefits for the local people. And what is even more amazing is that he is still deeply respected by today's son, although he is only a foreign court official, almost every book can be approved by the emperor.

As a result, his reputation as Yu Qian became more and more famous in the officialdom, and Hangzhou, as his hometown, was naturally proud of him. The Yu family has become an existence admired by the local government.

However, the Yu family is very low-key compared to the four families, not to mention bullying, and they have not even had any conflicts with ordinary people. It is this humble and low-key style that makes the Yu family's reputation among the people not high.

However, as Yu Qian's family, the government still attaches great importance to and protects them. Tonight, when they found out that Yu Yanzhao and Yu Wanting's ancestors and grandsons were not in Hangzhou, but went outside the city, and at the same time, there were more likely to be widows outside the city, many people panicked.

So, Yang Zhen led people out of the city in a hurry to track him, and arrived at the most critical moment, shot and killed two widows, and saved Lu Zhen and Yu Wanting.

Lu Jin, who understood all this, immediately had another question: "What about the battle with the Japanese in front of him?" How's it going there? ”
