Chapter 64: Assassination of the Celestial Master
Zhang Tianshi and Qingfeng Mingyue set off on the second day, and came to the territory of Yuzhou on this day.
The three of them stopped the horse, "Heavenly Master, we should have arrived at the border of Xiping County in front, and it is almost dark, let's hurry up and find a place to stay." Qingfeng said.
Zhang Tianshi looked around, and at this time, a woodcutter came over on the road and asked him for directions: "This old brother, is there a place to stay in front?" ”
The woodcutter said: "After walking ten miles, you will arrive at Tangxi Town, and there is no problem with food and accommodation." ”
"Thanks for the pointers." Zhang Tianshi thanked the woodcutter and said to Qingfeng Mingyue: "Let's hurry up, let's stay in the town tonight, where there is a Taoist temple of our Heavenly Master's Dao." ”
"Yes, Heavenly Master."
The three of them got on the horse and arrived at Tangxi Town, which is a bustling town.
Tangxi is at the foot of Funiu Mountain, is the holy land of sword casting, since the Spring and Autumn Period, here is the place where sharp weapons come out frequently, the town is full of smelting and casting workshops, the shops are dense, the wine is raging, the furnace fire illuminates the world, the red star is chaotic purple smoke. Businessmen, chivalrous people, and miscellaneous artists came and went, and business prospered.
The three of them inquired that there was indeed a Taoist temple in the town, which was the territory of the Heavenly Master's Dao, so they didn't live in the town and went directly to the Taoist temple outside the town.
This Taoist temple of the Heavenly Master Dao, called Huquan Temple, is under the jurisdiction of Nanshanzhi, there are several Taoist priests in it, and the Taoist temple is the Taoist chief of Yuanzhen who is more than sixty years old.
Yuan Zhen saw Zhang Tianshi coming, and felt very honored and entertained him to the fullest.
After eating, Zhang Tianshi and the others rested early, Qingfeng Mingyue was already tired, and fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
In the middle of the night, a dark shadow jumped into the Taoist temple, and he was Jin Zhanhong.
Liu Yao wanted to assassinate Zhang Tianshi, so that he could prevent him from unraveling the poison of the zombies, and second, he could cause civil strife in the Heavenly Master Dao, so he sent Hu Yanyi and Jin Zhanhong.
Jin Zhanhong told Liu Yao that this was the last thing he would do for Guiyitang, because Liu Yao had previously said that he wanted him to do three things for Guiyitang, in addition to changing his voice for Liu Ji and Liu Zhen, and also helping Guiyitang steal the account books, and then participating in the assassination of the Heavenly Master was already the third thing.
Liu Yao promised Jin Zhanhong that after this was done, the two would not owe each other, Jin Zhanhong agreed, and Hu Yanyi came to Tangxi a few days ago.
On this day, they heard that the Heavenly Master had entered the Tiger Spring Temple, but they were not sure that they would do it immediately, so Jin Zhanhong came to feel the situation alone.
Jin Zhanhong jumped into the Taoist temple, saw that there was no light inside, and thought: "It is said that the Heavenly Master is the best in the world in martial arts, but I want to see what kind of high law he has when he sleeps." So he walked straight towards Zhang Tianshi's room lightly to make a sneak attack.
Just walked a few steps, but unexpectedly, Zhang Tianshi walked out of the room, wearing pajamas and no coat, Jin Zhanhong hurriedly hid behind a pillar.
I saw Zhang Tianshi come to the courtyard, he was a little strange when he walked, his steps were very slow, not like during the day, and then he looked at his eyes as if they were not open, Jin Zhanhong was very strange.
Zhang Tianshi sat on a stone bench, his hands on the stone table in front of him, as if staring at something, his right hand was pointing and scratching on the table, his lips were moving, Jin Zhanhong stared at him, not knowing what he was doing.
But he didn't dare to step forward to move him, because he was still a little sure of sneaking up on the room, and he would definitely have no chance of winning if he fought him in the courtyard.
He continued to watch, and after a while, Zhang Tianshi got up and brushed his gray beard, laughed, and then walked back and forth a few times with his hands behind his back in the courtyard, and then came to a well, leaned in and looked inside, looked at it, took off his shoes, and was about to jump into the well!
Jin Zhanhong's heart tightened, the Heavenly Master couldn't commit suicide, but no matter what, as long as he jumped into the well, no matter how high his martial arts were, he would die.
is also urging him in his heart, Zhang Lao Dao, you are jumping quickly.
At this time, Qingfeng Mingyue ran out of the room, and when she saw such a scene, she shouted to the Heavenly Master and ran towards the well. The two grabbed Zhang Tianshi, who was about to jump into the well.
Mingyue pulled out a silver needle from his head and stabbed it at his temple, Zhang Tianshi stopped moving, after a while, he slowly woke up, Mingyue said: "Tianshi, scared us to death, you were about to jump into the well just now!" ”
Zhang Tianshi slowly stood up, laughed, stroked the back of Mingyue Qingfeng and said: "Hahahaha, two apprentices, just now I went to someone else's house to play chess in a dream, played a game with people, won the chess game, and then came to a river, for the teacher to see the water flow is clear, the fish are jumping, so I want to take off my shoes and jump into the river to catch fish, but I don't know that I have arrived next to the well, my sleepwalking problem is thanks to the two of you to take care of it, otherwise, I don't know how many times I have died for the teacher." ”
Qingfeng said: "Heavenly Master, don't say that, if it weren't for your old man taking us in back then, I'm afraid we would have starved to death, Heavenly Master, let's go back to the house." ”
Zhang Tianshi said: "Okay, let's go back to the house, it's only the middle of the night, and I'm tired from traveling these days, so you can rest." ”
Jin Zhanhong saw this and understood it, it turned out that Zhang Tianshi had a problem with sleepwalking, isn't this his flaw? If you take advantage of this to kill him, wouldn't it be effortless! Liu Yao once said that if he found Zhang Tianshi's flaw, the two would join forces to kill him, and now he found his flaw, he went back and told Hu Yanyi, he immediately came to the spirit when he heard it, and immediately sneaked into the Taoist temple with Jin Zhanhong, hoping that Zhang Tianshi could sleepwalk again tonight.
Sure enough, the Heavenly Master sleepwalked again after the third watch, and this time he jumped directly out of the courtyard wall and came outside, Qingfeng and Mingyue heard the movement and followed them to the courtyard, knowing that the Heavenly Master was out of the door, and hurriedly wanted to open the door bolt to open the door, but was clicked by Jin Zhanhong to sleep, and the two leaned against the door and fell asleep.
Hu Yanyi asked, "Brother Jin, is the Heavenly Master sleepwalking?" ”
Jin Zhanhong said: "Of course he was sleepwalking, you didn't hear me say that he had to jump into the well just now." ”
"Okay, let's go along."
Jin Zhanhong and the two followed all the way, seeing that the Heavenly Master seemed to have the intention of going outside the town, so he thought that it would be better to start in a quiet place, so the Heavenly Master came all the way to the river of Tangxi Mountain, Jin Zhanhong was ecstatic in his heart, thinking that the opportunity to start had arrived, so let him go to see the king of Hades in his dream unknowingly!
Without waiting for him to make a move, Hu Yanyi raised his palm and was about to hit his back, but he didn't expect to be smashed to the ground by an object that slashed his head and face, and he immediately fainted!
It turned out to be a person, and this person was lying on Hu Yanyi's body, and it looked like he jumped down from the mountain!
Jin Zhanhong was stunned, it's really better to be a human being, where did this flyer come from?!
The man slowly got up and said in frustration, "God, why is it so difficult to find death?!" ”
Jin Zhanhong faintly saw that it was a woman, and shouted: "Who are you!" Mind Lao Tzu's business!? ”
This person is the assassin Yue Tong who Zu Ti saw that day and wanted to assassinate Jia Nanfeng!
"Whoever wants to meddle with your affairs, I want to die, it's because he gets in the way that I didn't die, how can you blame me for meddling!" Yue Tong said angrily.
Jin Zhanhong watched Zhang Tianshi turn back for a while, and then walk forward again, he thought: "You can't miss the opportunity, kill this person who is in the way first!" ”
Yue Tong saw Zhang Tianshi, and then saw Jin Zhanhong staring at Zhang Tianshi, and also understood what was going on: "I understand, it turns out that you want to kill him!" ”
Jin Zhanhong waved his palm at her: "No matter what, you have to die!" ”
"It's so unreasonable, let's die together!"
The two fought together, and it seemed that Yuetong's martial arts were difficult to compete with him, but Yuetong didn't want to live in the world anymore, and she had no scruples about making moves, only knowing that there was no defense at all, and Jin Zhanhong was difficult to win for a while: "This girl, why are you so desperate!" ”
"Less nonsense! Kill me before you kill me! ”。
