Chapter Ninety-Eight: Man Will Die and Speak Badly 4

The servants of the Fang Cai family and the samurai of the Xiangfu Guard all thought that it was damp in the rain and that the fire would not be able to start. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info who knew that the torch fell on the sack and burned for a few breaths, which caused a sky-high fire, and the entire granary instantly turned into a raging sea of fire, and the fierce black smoke scattered out, and the choked people were breathless.

"Anxi soldiers, keep the granary! To meet the enemy, I am enough. Wei Boyu, whose eyes were as red as blood, was worried that another robe would be killed for no reason, so he followed the sound alone and killed the direction where the archer was lurking.

The samurai of the Prime Minister's Guard poured buckets of water into the granary against tongues of fire, but to no avail. In a few moments, the Anxi soldiers had just passed through the east gate, only to hear a loud bang, and the roof of the granary was burned down. The rain falling from the sky collided violently with the flames of fangs and claws, and white mist rose around the granary. The white mist and black smoke are mixed and entangled, which is particularly eerie.

"Fierce oil fire?" Several Ansiyah soldiers who had lived through the Battle of Talas gasped as they finally recognized the culprit who set the granary on fire. But before they could figure out how to put out the fire, they saw the whole granary fall to the ground, and the smell of burnt grain and the smell of dust were mixed together, which was extremely pungent.

In the haze, the black shadow flashed like a ghost, bypassing Wei Boyu, raising his sword and stabbing at the caravan warrior who was lying on the ground to ensure that there was no living mouth left.

"Damn!" Wei Boyu cut a piece of his robe and covered his face, stepped forward, slashed with his sword, and went straight to the throat of the woman in black. The wind of the sword was fierce, stirring the raindrops and lapping on the black veil of the woman's face.

"Carving insect skills!" The woman in black slumped back, dodging the sword strike, and the long sword stabbed Wei Boyu in the abdomen.

"Die!" Wei Boyu relied on his double armor, did not dodge or dodge, and the sword drew two arcs in the rain curtain, cutting towards the ribs of the woman in black.

"A little bit of a trick." The woman in black chuckled and spun sideways, like a butterfly in a flower, escaping from a sword net.

"Where to run!" Wei Boyu Dantian exerted his strength and jumped up, but he was greeted by a piercing scream, forcing him to hurriedly retract his strength and dodge. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the woman in black stabbed to death the last injured caravan warrior before Shi Shiran prepared to leave.

"Bastard!" Wei Boyu was furious with the other party's indifference to human life, and he swung his knife at the woman in black despite the threat of the archer lurking in the darkness.

The long sword in Wei Boyu's right hand had already been prepared to resist the dark arrow, but the delay in the arrival of the long arrow made him feel a little weak.

The woman in black grabbed his horizontal knife with a sword, and said in a low voice: "Wei Boyu, I don't want to hurt your life, don't leave it today, it's best for him to never see each other." ”

"What a big breath!" Wei Boyu is not a person who easily admits defeat, he was about to swing his sword to sneak attack, but the woman in black twisted her wrist, the tip of the sword changed direction, suddenly to the left, knocked Wei Boyu's long sword, and then the frost blade stabbed obliquely, grabbed the gap between the horizontal knife and the long sword, and quickly stabbed Wei Boyu's throat without cover.

"How did you know that?" Wei Boyu was dumbfounded, ignoring the blade in his throat.

"General Pei is full of momentum, have you learned everything?" The woman in black laughed, but the long sword in her hand did not stab.

"It was General Pei who taught a certain sword technique?" Wei Boyu was surprised and delighted, the name of Pei Min, the first sword of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, resounded all over the world, how could he not know, but Wei Boyu never expected that he would be fortunate enough to have Pei Min to guide him in swordsmanship.

"What a stupid boy who picked up the treasure for nothing, I don't know what General Pei likes about you." The woman in black withdrew her long sword: "For General Pei's sake, I will spare your life again." ”

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) "You are a disciple of Gongsun Sect?" "Wei Boyu doesn't like the inequality of the enemy and the dark, the general public may not know the inheritance of Gongsun Sect, how can he not know the origin of Gongsun Auntie and Pei Min after a long time of swordsmanship.

"There are as many people who practice General Pei's swordsmanship as a carp crossing the river, so it's better not to guess." The woman in black turned to leave.

"Stop! No matter who you are, how can you just walk away by burning down the granary and killing innocents indiscriminately? Wei Boyu tensed up and pulled away.

"Farewell General, half of the people on the ground were killed by you, and you and I are half a catty and eight taels, regardless of whether they are up or down." The woman in black scoffed.

"As a general of Anxi, I am ordered by the army to guard this place, and I have the right to execute anyone who threatens the granary. These Nanzhao warriors pretend to be merchants, and they want to do wrong, so why not stab them? Besides, a certain move has its own measure, unless it is forced to do so, never make a dead hand. How can you and I talk the same thing! Wei Boyu retorted.

"Someone paid for their lives, and I took the money, of course I want to eliminate the disaster for others." The woman in black raised her long sword, obviously not putting Wei Boyu in her eyes: "Although you are a general of Anxi, you can't stop the three-foot Qingfeng in my palm, so don't waste your efforts." ”

"Anxi Yabing, the fire in the granary is difficult to extinguish, you don't need to save it, come and end the battle quickly!" Wei Boyu thought that she was not the opponent of the woman in black when she fought alone, so she had no choice but to use the technique of military formation to trap her.

"Look at the knife!" The woman in black brushed her left hand from her waist, as if she wanted to launch a flying knife.

Wei Boyu shook his body to dodge, but the sound of breaking the air did not come.

"Farewell General, I hope we will have no time in the future!" The woman in black chuckled, turned around and left, she had no intention of resisting the formation.

"Don't you just say go!" Wei Boyu swung his sword to stab, trying to delay time.

Several eagle feathers came like black thunderbolts through the wind and rain, Wei Boyu did not stop at his feet, resisted several feather arrows with armor, and continued to pursue the woman in black. Dozens of feet away, more than a dozen Anxi soldiers were riding horses.

"It's another guy who doesn't give up if he doesn't reach the Yellow River!" The woman in black sighed helplessly, pinched out a poisonous needle and flicked it back.

When Wei Boyu vaguely identified the location of the poison needle, his throat had been pierced by several long needles, and a numbness was like a long snake surging, Wei Boyu felt that his eyes were black and his limbs were weak, and he immediately collapsed in the blood.

"Hateful! Why did they inherit General Pei's sword skills, but they did not learn General Pei's benevolence? Before Wei Boyu fainted, his thoughts were chaotic: "If you fail to keep the granary, Li Xianghe and Jie Shuai will inevitably blame, and simply take the opportunity to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion...... Battlefield skills may be able to defeat the enemy, but they are not suitable for dealing with ghostly and poison-savvy assassins......"

Torrential rain, wind, fire, and smoke. July 27 is destined to be an unquiet night.

When the granary of King Sheng's Manor was illuminated by huge torches on the eastern outskirts of Chang'an City, dozens of masked knights lurking between Weiqiao Cang and King Sheng's Manor charged with their guns, and the Shengwang Mansion family, who was responsible for escorting more than ten carts of grain, was killed in a single look.

After the knight dispersed the generals and the coachmen, he threw the grain on the carriage on the official road and drove away.

At the same time, in the Ruyiju warehouse in the southern suburbs of Chang'an, several women with long swords hanging from their waists are spilling buckets of tung oil into the granary, and only a few piles of firewood and grass are left in the warehouse that should be full. When the tung oil had completely penetrated the firewood and grass, the woman threw the torch into the granary and rode away. The men and samurai of Ruyiju waited until they were far away before shouting, "There are thieves arson!" ”

Early in the morning of July 28, the civilians who rushed to the eastern suburbs to buy grain in the rain were stunned to find that overnight, there was only a pile of black ashes left in Shengwang's granary, and thousands of victims were making a big noise around the manor steward, and the fame accumulated by Shengwang for releasing grain for disaster relief fell into the quagmire.

Civilians flocked to Wenheetang and Suyeju to buy them, and the victims of Gyeonggi also turned to Liujia Village in the western suburbs. In just half a day, Wen Xitang announced that the grain was exhausted and closed early, and all the pressure was concentrated on Su Yeju. Fortunately, Wang Fei hoarded a lot of food by giving bronze mirrors, barely able to support three or two days.

When Li Linfu learned that King Sheng's granary had been burned and his disaster relief plan had been blocked, he breathed turbidity in his chest and almost fainted. But he ignored the advice of Li Xiu and Li Renzhi, gritted his teeth and took the last three snow lotus pills, and forced his sick body to enter the palace to face the saint.

Halfway through the road, the bad news continued, first Jing Zhao Yin Xianyu said that last night there were Nanzhao soldiers and horses disguised as caravans to infiltrate Gyeonggi, burn Shengwang Manor and Ruyiju granaries, and rob and kill several convoys of grain from Weiqiao Cang, according to the surviving horsemen, the destination of the convoy was the Shengwang granary in the eastern suburbs; Then, after the Winter Solstice Dynasty meeting, because Yang Guozhong strongly recommended Ji Wen, who took over as the middle of the imperial history, attacked Li Linfu for bullying the monarch, and privately transferred the grain stored in the Weiqiao warehouse to the Shengwang granary. All of a sudden, the officials of Chang'an looked sideways and the crowd was in an uproar, and everyone speculated whether the right minister could escape this catastrophe.

In the face of one after another blows like Mount Tai's overwhelming, Li Linfu was unmoved, and scolded the coachman to hurry up and gallop into the palace. As soon as Li Linfu entered the Danfeng Gate, Gao Lishi, who had been in the door for a long time, said with a cold face: "The saint dragon is unwell, and he ordered a certain person to tell Li Xiang that the matter of transferring food is difficult to be punished, and I hope that the right minister will deal with it properly." ”

"Good! Good! I know something, thank you General Gao. Li Linfu's face was depressed, and he silently said goodbye, and said nothing more.

Gao Lishi stared at Li Linfu's lonely back, and only when he got into the carriage did he shake his head and sigh: "In a hurry, give people a handle, Li Linfu's life will not be long!" ”

A few months ago, Li Linfu entered the palace and asked the sage for permission to secretly use the Weiqiao storage grain for the name of Shengwang City, and the sage praised it at that time. But once the incident happens, the high-ranking saint will never be tainted with the slightest notoriety. Gao Lishi had expected that Li Linfu might have such an ending, but if he really came to this point, he couldn't help but feel a little chilled.

The battle for the storage position, which was provoked by Li Linfu and acquiesced by the sage, became surging and becoming more and more intense, but Gao Lishi, who was in the key position of the harem, gradually retreated. He tried his best to help the prince for the stability of the court, but Li Hengquan's desire was getting stronger, and he actually put his hand into the Dragon Forbidden Army of the Arch Guarding the Sage. Gao Lishi can tolerate the prince's small actions to counter Li Linfu's suppression, but he will never agree to the recurrence of the Xuanwumen Incident.

For this reason, Colliers invited Chen Xuanli to reminisce at a special family banquet, and hinted that he should not get too close to the prince. Chen Xuanli swore that he was loyal, and he only had a saint in his eyes, and he had no two hearts.

Regarding Chen Xuanli's oath of pointing to the sky, Colliers can't and dare not believe it all. Therefore, he urged the saint to set up a new Flying Dragon Forbidden Army, and was determined to firmly control this strong army.

As for King Sheng, Colliers' attitude is indispensable. Li Linfu pushed Li Qi hard, and what he valued was that the saint never forgot Concubine Wu Hui; However, Gao Lishi, who was familiar with the thoughts of the sage, knew that the sage connived and even drove Li Linfu to challenge the crown prince, after all, in order to stabilize the throne and avoid repeating the mistake of Gaozu becoming the emperor.

While Gao Lishi was thinking about it, a small yellow door holding an oil-paper umbrella hurriedly came and whispered in his ear: "Gao Weng, the saint has something urgent to ask for." ”
