Chapter 313: Tears in the Pearl (4)
cornices.
A woman with a black veil and a graceful figure crouched tightly, her eyes sharp. She held a glittering scimitar in her hand, and lay there motionless, like a sculpture.
She didn't notice that not far behind her, the white-clothed Mu Chang windbreaker was flying, staring on the ridge of the roof, holding a long sword in his hand, silent.
Mu Changfeng had long recognized this woman as the female assassin who appeared in Bianzhou City in the storm that night and attempted to assassinate Su Wu. The female assassin sneaked into Kong Sheng's temporary apartment, hiding behind the eaves of the roof of Su Wan's bedroom, Mu Changfeng quietly tracked him, but the other party did not act, and he did not move.
This time, he categorically would not let the female assassin escape.
He had a strong premonition that the origin of this female assassin was not simple, and he was afraid that it was not as simple as ordinary Jianghu people.
Although there was such a distance of more than ten zhang, Mu Changfeng was clearly aware of the female assassin's self-suppressed Sen Ran's killing intention. He couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he didn't know what kind of deep hatred and hatred there was between this woman and Su Wu that made her murderous so strong.
In the courtyard, Kong Sheng explained to Wu Xianwu: "Where did Brother Mu go?" ”
Wu Xian smiled: "My lord, Mu Daxia may have gone out of the city to play, and he disappeared early in the morning." However, adults don't have to worry, with Mu Daxia's peerless martial arts, no one will hurt him. ”
Mu Changfeng's martial arts are strong, and he flies around again, except for the swordsmen of the rivers and lakes, ordinary people don't even want to hurt half a hair.
Kong Sheng sighed, but he didn't think that Mu Changfeng would go out of the city early in the morning to hang out. Mu Changfeng is not good at words, and he rarely reveals his true heart, but his sense of loyalty and responsibility is no less than anyone's.
Current. Kong Sheng's army entered Luoyang City. Luoyang City is now mixed. Although An Qingxu led people to escape. But I don't know how much of the remnants of An's rebellion are hidden in the city, so don't look at Kong Sheng's appearance of appeasement and not ruthlessly suppressed, in fact, behind the scenes, Li Biao and Li Hu led the army to strictly defend in the city, and are secretly clearing the remnants of An's rebels.
Mu Changfeng naturally knew this, so he had been almost inseparable from Kong Sheng recently, secretly protecting him. Kong Sheng will not be afraid of the frontal impact, and there are a large number of fierce soldiers around Kong Sheng. What I'm afraid of is that the assassination methods of the elusive Jianghu people can't be prevented.
The morning sun rises, and the red glow fills the sky.
Midsummer gradually passed, and in Luoyang City in early autumn, the southwest wind was blowing slowly, and it was also wrapped in a trace of coolness.
The sky is so blue, and the blue is so vast and pure. Kong Sheng looked up at the sky and clouds, and the emotion in his heart was faint.
He turned around and walked to Su Wan's bedroom, this time he didn't knock on the door, but pushed the door directly.
Su Wu didn't react, and the maid bowed down to him.
Kong Sheng waved his hand. Motioning to the maid not to be polite, he walked over. I saw Su Wu curled up, holding her head in her hands, sleeping soundly on the couch like a shrimp, covered with a thin blanket.
Kong Sheng was a little surprised, in psychology, people who unintentionally showed this sleeping posture belonged to the list of extremely insecure. But Su Wu is the princess of Xixi, who controls the military power of Xixi, and has always looked down on everyone from above, but she is arrogant and arrogant. Unexpectedly, she exposed such a vulnerable side in her subconscious, which shows that her heart is far less hard and tough than she shows.
Kong Sheng slowly sat on the bed, stared at Su Wan who was sleeping soundly, and sighed softly. He reached over and tightened the blanket for Su Wan, and then silently got up and left.
The maid Rou'er looked at Kong Sheng's departing back, and said in her heart: Kong Taishou actually cares a lot about the princess, but these two people don't let anyone on Mai Mang on weekdays, and many times they look like enemies of life and death.
Su Wu slowly opened her eyes, and a touch of brilliance flashed in her eyes. But she slowly closed her eyes again, and fell asleep again, a little sleepy.
Kong Sheng walked out of Su Wu's bedroom, and suddenly heard a clear reprimand from the roof, followed by a fierce sword collision, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately ran to the courtyard, looking up.
On the ridge of the roof, the white-clothed Mu Changfeng and the black-clothed female assassin fought with swords and swords, and the entire mansion was startled by the sound of warnings, Li Biao, Li Hu, Wu Xian and Wu Xie led the heavily armed soldiers to rush to the area, guarding Kong Sheng's regiment in it, while Nan Yong commanded the crossbowmen and archers to draw bows and arrows, as if facing a great enemy, aimed at the assassins on the roof.
Kong Sheng raised his eyebrows, he was about to ask Li Biao to arrange a few more soldiers with good skills to rush up to help in the battle, but he saw a clear shadow flashing, and Su Wu, who was armed with a sword in a strong suit, went up to the roof on the spot, swept over the cornices, and stabbed at the female assassin in mid-air with a sword in one.
The female assassin snorted lightly, swung her sword to block Mu Changfeng's sword, and then turned back and swung her sword to meet Su Wan. Her eyes revealed a strong murderous intent, and the knife that was swung was almost a knife that was put to death regardless of her own safety, pointing at Su Wu's vital point.
Su Wu had already recognized the female assassin in mid-air. Her pretty face changed drastically, and in a hurry, her body suddenly made a thousand pounds and fell on the ridge of the roof, narrowly avoiding the female assassin's knife.
Su Wu waved her sword to protect her chest, and suddenly shouted in a trembling voice: "Sister Su Ying, do you have to put me to death before you stop?" ”
The assassin's figure landed lightly on the cornice, the scimitar in his hand was horizontal in front of his chest, and said coldly: "Su Wu, you should die!" ”
Su Ying's face was gloomy: "Sister Su Ying, Su Ying made mistakes in the past and hurt her sister, if her sister had to take Su Ying's life, Su Wu would not dare to resist." ”
Su Wan waved the sword in her hand and threw it down, and landed at the feet of a soldier in the courtyard with a pop, this cold light flashed, rubbing the soldier's face and down, so frightened that this person was so frightened that he almost didn't scream.
The female assassin sneered repeatedly: "Su Wan, don't think that like this, I will let you go!" I don't care about the past anymore, but you...... Unexpectedly did something wrong, Bianzhou City lost thousands of people, and there were many blood debts, I can't spare you! ”
Mu Changfeng flew in and protected Su Wan's body.
Seeing that the two women were obviously acquaintances, and it seemed that they had a close relationship, Mu Changfeng said in a deep voice: "No matter what personal grievances you have in the past, no matter what personal grievances you have in the past, you don't want to commit murder in front of a certain family!" ”
Su Wu sighed faintly, and suddenly hugged her fist to Mu Changfeng and said, "Mu Daxia, this is a matter between Su Wu and Su Ying's sister, please don't interfere." ”
Su Wu stepped forward and said bitterly: "Sister Su Ying, in the battle of Bianzhou City, Su Ying knew that she had made a big mistake and regretted it. Thousands of people have been killed and wounded, and I cannot escape the blame. However, since the war, since we Xixi people have participated in it, it is impossible for us to have no casualties, and I ask Sister Su Ying to forgive me for this. ”
The female assassin named Su Ying screamed: "Su Ying, you don't have to quibble, look at the knife!" ”
Su Ying stabbed with a knife, and Su Wu slowly closed her eyes with a sad face, not moving, and had no sense of avoiding resistance.
Mu Changfeng frowned, and immediately swung his sword forward, blocking this murderous knife for Su Ying, and fought with Su Ying again.
Su Ying's skills are extraordinary, and she and Mu Changfeng's martial arts are in the middle of each other. The two of them flew across the roof, killing each other, and each of them became angry.
Kong Sheng waved his hand, and several soldiers with good skills flew up to the roof, slowly outflanking Su Ying and Mu Changfeng, blocking several angles and directions from which Su Ying could escape.
And one after another, more and more soldiers were commanded by Li Biao to rush to the roof, and the crossbow arrows in their hands sealed every corner, laying a net of heaven and earth, at this time, Su Ying was difficult to fly even if she had wings.
Even in the fierce battle, Su Ying naturally noticed all this. The anger and anger in her heart suddenly rose to an extreme, and at the same time, she was a little desperate and helpless, if it wasn't for Mu Changfeng's obstruction, she would have beheaded Su Wu under the knife. As for these outflanked soldiers, they were not in her eyes at all.
Su Ying was captured.
The veil on her face was lifted, revealing a bright and beautiful face in front of Kong Sheng's eyes, and her facial features were extremely similar to Su Wan's. In particular, the contours of the eyebrows and eyes are almost carved out of a mold.
She was firmly tied to a tree in the courtyard.
Kong Sheng stepped forward slowly and said lightly: "Who are you, you dare to stab Princess Su under the nose of this official, and at the same time trespass into the mansion of this official, and you are suspected of assassinating this official, do you know that this is a capital crime?" ”
Su Ying snorted: "Dog official, don't come to intimidate me, since I dare to come, I have long put life and death aside." This is a matter between me and Su Wan's, and it has nothing to do with you! ”
Kong Sheng seemed to smile: "How can it have nothing to do with me?" Su Wu is Kong's woman, her business is my business, if you want to assassinate my woman, do you want me to stand by? This official advises you to quickly and honestly confess, otherwise, I have the means to deal with you. ”
Su Ying's body was shocked, she stared at Kong Sheng deeply, and sneered after a long time: "A raccoon dog, embarrassed, is really a pair of dog men and women!" ”
Su Wan's face turned red on the side, and she was about to step forward, but was stopped by Mu Changfeng.
Kong Sheng couldn't help laughing: "You woman is very interesting, but you can tell me, how did this official and Su Wu get into trouble?" ”
Su Ying sneered coldly and turned her head.
Kong Sheng took a step forward and looked at Su Ying with sharp eyes: "Explain your origin, otherwise, the official will strip you naked and throw you on the street to parade for half a day." ”
Su Ying's body was shocked, her body struggled fiercely, her face was angry and her eyes were almost ready to kill: "Shameless! Dog officer, if you dare to humiliate me, my master will definitely behead your dog! ”
"Who is your master?" Kong Sheng said casually: "This official still comes and goes freely among the thousands of troops, can he still be afraid of you, a woman in the rivers and lakes?" Kong still said the same thing, tell me honestly about your origin, otherwise I will immediately arrange for someone to strip you naked and throw you on the street. ”
"If you don't believe me, you can try it." (To be continued.) )
