Chapter 066: The First Person of the Ming Dynasty
Sun Degong was in a hurry and didn't care about the pain, and rolled over, rolled off the bed, and rolled to the corner of the house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sun Yueling stabbed the air with a sword, and hurriedly chased after him who had not yet gotten up, and the third sword slashed at his neck. Sun Degong's right hand was weak, so he had to use his left hand to raise the scabbard again to block.
The swords struck each other again, and with a "snort", Sun Yueling's sword cut a long wound on his left arm, and the scabbard in Sun Degong's hand fell to the ground.
Seeing that Sun Degong was no longer powerless to fight back, Sun Yueling was about to take his dog life directly with a sword again. Suddenly, I felt a chill in the back of my neck, and a chill that invaded the bone marrow spread from my neck, and my back was cold.
At this moment, he had been in battle for a long time, and knew that someone was attacking from behind, so he quickly turned around and swept with a sword.
With a "dang" sound, the two swords intersected, and he was so shocked that he staggered back, his arm was sore, and he almost couldn't hold the iron sword.
When he looked up, he saw a person standing in front of him with the moonlight on his back, he couldn't see his face clearly, his body was long, and he didn't know who it was.
"Who dares to assassinate the Liao army generals?" The man snorted coldly, his voice was like a sharp sword, and the sound seemed to be Fang Yichen, the white-robed scribe he saw in Ningyuan's yamen.
Sun Yueling didn't answer, shook the sword in his hand, and stabbed Sun Degong in the chest who stood up. Now that he has alarmed others, he doesn't have much time, and he must finish off this thief as soon as possible.
"Mr. Fang, save me!" When Sun Degong saw the comer, he was finally relieved and shouted at him.
Fang Yichen saw Sun Yueling stabbing at Sun Degong, and sneered: "Rats dare to do so? A sword stabbed at his throat again, and he didn't even use the sword to block the iron sword that stabbed at Sun Degong, but directly took Sun Yueling.
If Sun Yueling didn't defend, even if he could stab Sun Degong to death, then he would inevitably be pierced through the throat by a long sword. The situation is critical, even if he has the intention to kill the thief, he doesn't want to die with Sun Degong like this, besides, this Fang Yichen's long sword is castrated, I'm afraid he won't have time to stab into Sun Degong's body, this long sword will be stabbed into his throat first.
Unable to do so, he could only turn around again and slash at the long sword as cold as the wind with his iron sword.
With a sound of "dang", the two swords were framed, and his iron sword was so overwhelmed that it was broken into two, leaving only half of the bald sword in his hand.
"With such swordsmanship, you dare to be an assassin, let me see who you are?" Fang Yichen laughed, and a sword came at the black scarf in front of him.
Sun Yueling's chest was churning with blood and blood by his second sword shock, and his whole body was weak, thinking that this person was so powerful, I am afraid that even Yuan Hongdao was not his opponent, and the current assassination operation was definitely a failure, and the only way was to escape quickly.
With a decision in his heart, he slammed into the window lattice.
With a "boom", the window shattered, and he jumped under the courtyard wall outside the door.
"Haha......" Fang Yichen let out a long laugh, "Where to go?" A flying man followed and chased him out.
Sun Yueling climbed up the low earthen wall with one jump, and threw the remaining half of the bald sword in his hand at Fang Yichen with his hand, then jumped off the earthen wall and ran forward quickly.
Fang Yichen flew the bald sword that came towards him with a sword, and one flew over the earthen wall and chased after him.
Sun Yueling ran for a while, and he had come to the intersection of the Patriarch Temple Hutong and the Second Lane of Beili, as long as he ran out of seven or eight zhang, he could return to his residence. Fang Yichen behind him chased after him like a maggot on the tarsal bone, extremely fast, so that he would be caught up if he didn't run back to his residence.
Just as his heart was pounding, suddenly a voice from the side of the alley on the left whispered, "Here, quick." It turned out to be Qi Liao's voice.
He hurriedly ran over as Qi Liao said, Qi Liao pointed to a pile of wood and stone debris at the mouth of the alley, and said, "Hide in." ”
Sun Yueling hurriedly shrunk into the pile of wood and debris. As soon as he retracted his head and blocked it in front of him with a wooden board, he heard a "whew", and it seemed that someone had fallen not far away, and through the faint light between the gaps, it was Fang Yichen, who was chasing after him.
"What's wrong?" Qi Liao pressed the knife on his waist, stood at the crossroads, and said to Fang Yichen.
"Mr. Qi Qian?" Fang Yichen was surprised for a while, and said, "Do you see someone running over here?" ”
Qi Liao said: "It seems that someone ran in the direction of Chunhemen in front of him, what, who is it?" ”
"It's a rat who assassinated General Sun!" Fang Yichen threw down this sentence and chased forward.
"I'm here to help you!" Qi Liao also chased after him.
Sun Yueling waited for them to go away, quickly pulled off his mask, ran all the way back to the post house, and when he arrived at the room, he quickly took off his coarse cloth clothes. While undressing, he heard the noise of people in the distance, and seemed to faintly see the fire, he knew that Sun Degong had been assassinated, and he must have provoked a lot of soldiers patrolling the city, and he was searching for him.
Sun Yueling was trying to hide in bed and go to sleep, pretending that nothing had happened. But in the blink of an eye, there is such a big movement in the city at this moment, there is no reason for him to lie on the bed and pretend to be asleep? After all, even Qi Liao ran out to get the thief?
Thinking of this, he put on his cotton robe, put the coarse cloth clothes under the bed, and also picked up a stick, ran outside and shouted, "What is the situation, what is the matter? At a glance, he saw Sun Degong, who had wrapped his wound in cotton yarn and was surrounded by many soldiers, and said, "General Sun, why are you injured, who injured you?" ”
……
In the early morning of the next day, Qi Liao and Sun Yueling rode out of the west gate of Ningyuan, which was strictly under investigation, and headed in the direction of Shanhaiguan, without saying goodbye to Xiong Tingbi and Li Rukui.
Along the way, Qi Liao's face tightened and he didn't say a word. When Sun Yueling saw him like this, he couldn't speak, so he had to ride his horse and chase after him sullenly.
But because he doesn't know how to ride a horse, he is not very familiar with the control, and his speed is far less than Qi Liao. Qi Liao saw that he was riding slowly, so he had to slow down his horse slightly, and sometimes waited for him in front.
After riding his horse nearly a hundred miles away from Ning Yuan, Qi Liao waited for Sun Yueling, who was slowly chasing, and frowned, "Why are your riding skills so bad?" ”
Sun Yueling took the reins of his horse and sneered: "I ride very little, hey, I didn't expect to be so troublesome to ride a horse!" "He had ridden horses before, but he had always ridden them for fun, and he had never galloped so long as he did now. remembered what happened last night, and said, "I was fortunate to you last night, otherwise I am afraid that I will be caught up by that Fang Yichen." ”
Qi Liao snorted coldly and said, "You are really not small, you dare to assassinate Sun Degong alone." You are so reckless, do you know that this thousand households can take you down and punish you? ”
Sun Yueling looked at Qi Liao with a serious face, knowing that he was just angry, if he wanted to take him, he would have taken it a long time ago, and he didn't have to wait until now, and said: "It's me who acted recklessly, it's all my fault, hey, I didn't have time to tell you." ”
Qi Liao said again: "There is no evidence, and you rashly assassinate the general of the army based on personal assumptions, you are really the first person in my Ming Dynasty." ”
Sun Yueling was "complimented" by him, went around the back of his head, and said: "I'm too impulsive, I will never do this again in the future." "What I thought in my heart was that history really can't be changed, and I can't do this kind of thankless thing in the future.
"If you know, it's good." Qi Liao's face softened slightly, and said, "Your assassination has turned the entire Ningyuan City upside down, and the military preparation Dao Yamen still thinks that the city has infiltrated the Tartars to work carefully, and is searching and investigating in the whole city, and idle people are not allowed to go out of the city." After a pause, he said: "Fortunately, Jinyiwei has the privilege of passage, otherwise you and I would both have to stay in Ningyuan, and you don't have to go to Beijing to save the United States." ”
Sun Yueling knew that what he said was the truth, and he could feel it from when he went out in the early morning, and hurriedly smiled: "It's really thanks to the fourth brother, otherwise I would have to be sudden" by Fang Yichen's sword." ”
After counting Sun Yueling, the anger in Qi Liao's heart calmed down a lot, raised his whip and pointed to the distance in front of him, and said: "The front is about to reach Ningyuan Zhongyou, let's go in and rest for half an hour, and then change horses and go straight to Shanhaiguan." ”
After the two entered the center left to rest, they changed their horses and headed towards Shanhaiguan again.
