Seeing this, the leader of the palace guards was furious in his heart. This thief was discovered by himself, and he didn't want to escape, and took the initiative to provoke. He glared angrily and roared: "Thief, so daring! Then he swung his sword at him, vowing to cut him down.

After a few fights, Xu Anping already had a general understanding of the level of the guard leader, and he definitely couldn't take it down for a while, not to mention that there was a powerful assassin and a group of guards who were eyeing and being temporarily dragged not far behind. So, he weighed it a little and secretly made up his mind. Seeing the oncoming knife momentum, Xu Anping stabbed into the right arm of the guard leader by swinging a dagger from a tricky one, and he himself was stabbed in the left shoulder that had been tightened in advance.

"Ahh The leader of the guards screamed, and the steel knife fell to the ground, covering the wound on his right arm with his left hand.

Xu Anping snorted, turned around and kicked the locust tree not far from the wall without hesitation, and then the dagger in his right hand pierced into the gap in the wall and pulled hard, and his body had jumped onto the wall with the help of force. Just as he was about to jump off the wall, there was a sudden sound of a hidden weapon breaking through the air behind him. At this time, he had no time to dodge, so he could only turn sideways slightly to avoid the vital point, and let the hidden weapon pierce his back. After being injured again, his body fell from the wall.

The leader of the guards simply wrapped up his wounds and reported to King Jing outside the study: "Lord Wang, the assassin has escaped from the palace, please show me how to act." ”

King Jing slammed open the door of the study, kicked down the leader of the guards who was kneeling on the ground to report, and roared angrily: "Waste, it's all a bunch of waste!" Don't give this king to chase it! Remember, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death! ”

"Yes, yes. The subordinates will take people to chase after them, and they will definitely bring people back. The leader of the guard hurriedly got up, not daring to slap the dirt on his body, and turned to lead the men to chase the assassins.

"Come back! When chasing people, don't meet the people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division. If that person falls into their hands, you know what to do, right? King Jing stared coldly at the leader of the guards, like a vicious wolf.

The leader of the guard heard a fine cold sweat break out on his forehead, and said with trembling lips: "My subordinates know what to do. In the future, the subordinate family will have Lord Lao. ”

"Well, go ahead. Bring me back, and the king will reward him. ”

The leader of the guard chased after him with dozens of capable men, following the trail of blood all the way.

In order to avoid the possible pursuit, Xu Anping has been running non-stop. He was injured twice in a row, and his body was already a little unbearable. In particular, the shoulder wound is quite large, and it is bleeding all the time, and now I have symptoms of blackness and dizziness in front of my eyes. If the bleeding is not stopped in time, I am afraid that it will bleed to death. At this time, he heard messy footsteps behind him, and smiled bitterly in his heart: "It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight!" However, he still refused to give up, not for himself and for the few people who had been waiting for him at home, so he gritted his teeth with the last strength and continued to think about not leaving.

I don't know how long it took, Xu Anping's body was already shaking, as if he was about to fall to the ground in the next moment. His eyelids were fighting up and down, his face was pale, his lips were blue, his breath was as weak as a gossamer, and his shoulders and back had reached the point where he couldn't shed blood, and he really couldn't hold it anymore. He fell to the ground suddenly, the dagger in his right hand falling into the gutter, and then his hands clutched unconsciously, as if trying to make a final struggle. The footsteps were getting closer.

At this time, Xu Anping touched the wall beside him, supported it with his hands and tried to stand up, and his whole body was shaking. He tried to open his eyes and looked up at the low courtyard wall, and in a bit of a daze, he grabbed the last strength he had just gathered with both hands and climbed up to the wall, and then fell into the courtyard with a "bang". At the last moment of losing consciousness, Xu Anping couldn't help laughing at himself: such a wall, which Lao Tzu could have come in with his legs before, is now about to be thrown to death, what a joke.

The head of the guards of the palace came here with people, and everyone stopped at a beckon. One of the guards, who was good at tracking and leading the way, said, "Chief, the assassin has disappeared here. It's a fork in the road, and it's hard to know where he tends to run. ”

The leader of the guard looked around a few times, then turned around and asked, "Who is this courtyard?" I suspect the Assassins may have entered this courtyard. ”

A guard who was familiar with the terrain stepped forward and said, "Chief, the courtyard is from the mansion of Lord Shang Shuyi of the Ministry of Rites. Well, this old man is not easy to deal with, and even the emperor gave him three points. If you annoy him, even our prince won't be able to hold it! ”

The leader of the guards was in trouble, and if he could not find the assassin, the prince would surely skin him; If you annoy the Ministry of Rites, it is estimated that your life will be gone. In a dilemma, he was anxious to think of a way, and suddenly a flash of inspiration beckoned a cronie to speak in his ear, and the latter nodded again and again. He then asked a dozen people to chase in one direction, and he himself took the others in the other.

A moment later, one of the guards who stayed behind knocked the back door of Yifu a few times, screamed a few times, and quickly disappeared into the night. "Damn, I'm not so stupid! Let Lao Tzu sneak into the mansion of the Ministry of Rites to check, if he is caught, won't he die? Fuck your uncle, I'm afraid of death and want to hurt Lao Tzu! ”

Yi Mingtao, the official of the Ministry of Rites, heard the movement and came to check, but found no one, so he scolded and continued to patrol, or found a place to take a nap.

Xu Anping had a dream. He dreamed that he was sleeping in a well-groomed room, with a faint fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose, a little like a plum blossom and a little like a gardenia, and he felt comfortable. At this time, Deng Xiaoke suddenly appeared, glaring at himself angrily with his little tiger teeth. "Deng Jiu, what's the matter with you? How did you get yourself covered in blood? Do you want to die early and let me stay alive? Miss Ben tells you that there are no doors. I'm going to tell Daddy that you're a big bastard and you're out there all day making trouble. Xu Anping wanted to refute and ridicule as usual, but he couldn't open his mouth. Yi Lian'er pulled Deng Xiaoke away and whispered a few words of persuasion, and then gently came over to wipe her face. The ends of her hair brushed against her cheeks, tingling and itchy, and it was very comfortable. I really want to never wake up for the rest of my life! At this time, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, I was being chased and killed, and I was running for my life! Then, he opened his eyes and met a young girl with a weak face.

The girl was wiping his face when she suddenly saw him wake up and was immediately frightened. Before he could scream "Ah", he quickly covered his small mouth with his hand. There was still panic in his eyes.
