Chapter 762: Murder with a Knife (Part II)
It is said that people are naturally better than rabbits, especially those with noble status, who have become more cautious in their own safety. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As a vassal king who was sealed to a place where various ethnic groups lived in Guangxi, King Jing and his family have always had the practice of leaving a way back for themselves, and the secret passage hidden in the palace is naturally one of the means. It's just that I didn't expect that this escape passage, which has not been used since it was built, has become a shortcut to rescue the contemporary King Jing today.
When the attention of those White Lotus Sect thieves in the dormitory was attracted by the white rails and Zhou Jiao outside, Yang Zhen had already led a few brothers to burrow into the secret passage from a corner on the side under the guidance of the inner attendant, and quietly appeared behind these thieves.
At this time, these people from the White Lotus Sect were still pestering with the guards outside: "You all heard clearly, I will only give you the last half of the incense to disperse, otherwise your prince will have to give us a funeral!" The ferocious threatening words were all the more real with the scars that had been left on King Jing's body again.
This made Bai Rail's heart even more anxious: "Zhou Jie, do you really plan to kill the prince?" Why don't you get rid of me! Bai Changshi, who didn't know the inside story, was already really angry, and he didn't leave any emotion and room to speak.
In order to buy more time for Yang Zhen and them, Zhou Jiao can be regarded as letting go this time: "Bai Changshi, do you dare to guarantee that if we let them out, they will not be able to move the prince?" So, not only can we not save the prince, but we can't even get the murderer, so how can we explain to the court? You're not alone! ”
"You ......" Bai Liang didn't expect this always low-key and obedient guard leader to contradict himself so much, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while. Suddenly, he turned around and stared at the other party's face fiercely, wanting to use his momentum to overwhelm the other party, after all, he was the chief of the palace, and his official position was far higher than that of a guard leader.
But this pair of last week's eyes, Bai Rail noticed a trace of strangeness, and the other party who said resolutely in his mouth was constantly making eye contact with himself at this time, although he couldn't understand what he meant for a while, but Bai Rail already understood a little, he was plotting, maybe he was delaying.
Bai Liang is a smart person and knows how to improvise, since Zhou Jiao is not as he said that he does not care about the safety of the prince, then he must have some kind of tricks, in the case of being completely helpless, he can only believe in him this time and cooperate. So he spoke again: "You really refuse to give orders? Okay, the official himself will tell them! As he spoke, he walked away from the palace gate, and spoke again to the guards to tell them to retreat.
But it's a pity that after all, he is only an official in charge of civil affairs in the palace, and he really has no prestige for these guards, and before Zhou Ji gave this order, those guards did not dare to disperse, and the situation once again fell into an embarrassing stalemate.
Seeing this, those White Lotus Sect disciples in the palace also felt a little restless in their hearts. Although they are not afraid of death, it would be better if they could hold King Jing hostage and leave, not only killing people, but also retreating. And now it seems that things are a little out of their control.
After giving each other a look, the leader gestured to the subordinate who held the prince's concubine hostage, and asked him to give the other party some color first, anyway, he and outsiders only value King Jing, so let's use this woman to make a threat, so that they don't dare to kill people.
"Listen, who are you?"
Hearing the shouts inside, Zhou Bai and the others, who were pretending to quarrel, couldn't help but look back at the palace gate, and saw the prince's concubine with a pear blossom and rain on her face, and then, the black-clothed man who controlled her stabbed the knife in his hand into her towering chest.
With a pop, the knife stabbed directly into the woman's chest without mercy, and with a sharp scream, the concubine fell to a pool of blood.
"Yuzhu ......" King Jing saw that his beloved concubine was killed, and his heart was also painful, and he couldn't help but cry out.
At the same time as he spoke, the man in black spoke again: "Now it's just this woman, and the next one is your prince, our patience has run out, think about it yourself!" ”
Everyone outside was stunned again, and Zhou Jie's head was also full of sweat, why didn't Yang Zhen and them see movement for so long? If this plan fails, and the prince really makes a mistake, then his own guilt will be too great, and then not only his own head, but also the lives of his entire family may not be enough to atone.
Just when he was both entangled and a little regretful, Yang Zhen inside finally gave the order to attack. He was holding the leader of the black-clothed man who was holding King Jing hostage, and pointed at himself, Cai Yingyang and the other two immediately understood what he meant-the prince and the people who kidnapped him would be personally disposed of by Yang Zhen, and as for the rest of the people, they would have to rely on the three of them to deal with it.
With Yang Zhen moving forward, the four of them rushed forward like arrows from the string. At this time, the black-clothed men in front of the palace gate just threw Yuzhu's body aside, wanting to see how those guys outside would react.
Suddenly, they felt a gust of wind coming from the back of their heads, and several people were heartbroken, and hurriedly drew their knives and turned around. After all, they are people who often live a life of licking blood from the knife, and even if they encounter a sudden mutation, they can deal with it in time.
But after all, they were half a beat slower, and at this time, a figure had already swooped down close to the ground in an extremely strange and strange way, and then twisted and turned, and actually got into the guards of the people at the back, and went straight to the leader who held King Jing hostage in the middle.
And just when they were stunned for a while, and then they were shocked, and when they waved their knives to help the leader resist the comers, they found that there was a strong wind behind them, and the three men in strong suits rushed like the wind, especially the big man in the first place, and in the middle of shouting, he smashed the man in black closest to him with a stick and flew out, and then stepped forward again, and grabbed the placket of one of them with one hand, and smashed him with enough strength to smash him on the other man in black who still wanted to help.
Cai Yingyang's hand really helped Yang Zhen a lot. Because he was going straight to the head of the enemy who had kidnapped King Jing with all his might, he didn't care about other people's attacks on him at all, and he could only pass with his strange and swift body, but his back was obviously flawed.
But Cai Yingyang's subsequent round of attacks made him have no worries, and also allowed him to pounce on the leader of the man in black very smoothly, and with a flash of the dagger in his hand, he went straight to the throat of the other party.
This change really surprised everyone. Those White Lotus Sect thieves didn't expect that someone in the Jingwang Mansion would dare to take such a risk, nor did they expect that there would be another secret passage here, and what they didn't expect in the end was that the person who made the attack was so decisive and fast, and in just a moment's stunned, the person actually killed in front of him.
Fortunately, how many times has the leader been born and killed, even in the face of such a sudden attack, his expression remained unchanged, seeing Yang Zhen's dagger attack, the knife in his hand was too late to parry, so he simply pulled and withdrew with his other hand, and actually used King Jing as a shield and sent it straight towards Yang Zhen's knife edge.
This blow was indeed wonderful, and it immediately made Yang Zhen slow down the dagger that was about to hit the target, and then his body shrank to the side, so as to avoid hurting King Jing.
And King Jing was so frightened at this time that his face was like earth, and he screamed again and again. This kind of sword slashing in front of him, threatening to hurt himself, he had never dreamed of before.
The leader of the man in black laughed, used King Jing as a meat shield again, and pressed towards Yang Zhen, and said, "Why, do you really want King Jing to die here?" ”
Looking at King Jing's wretched appearance, listening to the other party's words, Yang Zhen's eyes suddenly flashed a trace of murderous intent, and he only heard him shout: "Hugh injured the prince, and at the same time, the dagger in his hand stabbed forward again." ”
But the other party repeated the old trick again, blocking his move, and at the same time taunted in his mouth: "Just because you also want to save King Jing?" As he spoke, he cut everything into the knife that was pressed on King Jing's neck: "Then I will fulfill you!" It seems to have the intention of killing King Jing with a knife.
"Stop!" Yang Zhen screamed urgently, and the dagger in his hand slashed a strange arc from King Jing's side, avoiding his body and snatching the opponent's wrist.
The man didn't care much at all, just dragged King Jing back again, trying to block it again. But at this moment, the dagger that Yang Zhen stabbed forward flipped over on the side of the king, and smashed the back of the opponent's knife with the blade of the knife in a way that the opponent did not expect at all!
Originally, the knife was tightly attached to King Jing's throat, and as long as he used a little force, he could cut a cut. Now, after being beaten by Yang Zhen like this, the man in black was completely unprepared, and the blade of the knife was like a nail driven into wood by a hammer, and with a snort, half of it fell into King Jing's throat.
King Jing only had time to make a half-snort, and then the sound was completely cut off by this one, and then he looked at the two people in front of him with a pair of surprised eyes, just with unwillingness and doubts, and he didn't bat a glance!
This time it was too weird, so weird that even the leader of the White Lotus Sect didn't expect that Yang Zhen's target was actually the hostage in his hand, and just when he was stunned, the dagger in Yang Zhen's hand, who didn't have the slightest concern, flipped over again, and stabbed into the opponent's throat with a bang, and at the same time let out an exclamation from his mouth: "Lord Wang......"
At the same time, those guards outside the palace also rushed in at the fastest speed under the leadership of Zhou Jiao, but unfortunately, they saw such a result that shocked everyone to the extreme, and the prince Jing who they wanted to save had already been killed!
