Chapter 25: The Scholar Wields a Knife

Zhang Yingying was originally worried that she was going to use troops against Fengzhou, so she deliberately used clichΓ©s, but she didn't expect a few painless words to find out the truth from Mrs. Lu, and she couldn't help but feel a little smug in her heart.

With some fruit points, eat a few cups of fragrant tea, the two said goodbye to Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu sent all the way to the door, pulled Zhang Yingying for a long time and refused to let go, at this moment the sky has darkened, the coachman is anxious, the carriage is fast, when crossing the Yongjiafang West Tongji Bridge, there is a beggar crossing the street, the coachman hurriedly strangled the carriage, the beggar did not hit, but he was scared into a cold sweat, picked up the whip and went to chase the beggar, as soon as he left, two young people in gorgeous clothes jumped on the carriage and whipped away,

Woods asked tremblingly, "What do you want to do, this is the carriage of the palace." ”

The young man snorted coldly, and did not answer, after the carriage crossed the bridge, it turned east into Yongjiafang, and the little officer who guarded the door saw that it was the carriage of Yingwangfu, and did not dare to come forward to interrogate, the carriage stopped in the backyard of a mansion, and a group of beautifully dressed young people surrounded it, and the young man who drove the car used a horsewhip to pick up the dust, and said in a strange manner: "Two please." Woods's frightened lips were blue, her hands and feet were trembling, and she didn't dare to take a breath, but Zhang Yingying could still hold her breath.

Zhang Yingying asked, "Who are you, what are you bringing us here for?" ”

The young man sneered: "Little girl, you have to know so much to do, don't bother, come down." Zhang Yingying said with a cold face: "If you don't say it, I won't go down." The young man became anxious, leaned into the carriage and pulled Zhang Yingying out, Zhang Yingying suddenly hugged the young man's arm and bit it fiercely.

"Ouch,"

The young man retreated with a scream, causing everyone to laugh and joke around him.

Wu Zimei persuaded in a low voice: "Yingying, don't mess with them, we two women, we can't fight them, people are under the eaves, how can we not bow our heads, let's say a few soft words." ”

Zhang Yingying snorted coldly and said: "It's already a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, if they want to kill us, it's useless to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, hmph, I won't let them look down on me even if I die." ”

A person outside the car smiled when he heard the sound and said: "I have such courage at such a young age, admire, admire." At this time, two strong men rushed into the carriage, one hugged Zhang Yingying, and the other dragged Woods Mei down, and a strong man with a beard on his face asked Woods May: "When will your brother's debt to us be paid off?" ”

Woodsmay begged in a trembling voice: "Allow me to be allowed for another half a year, and I will definitely pay off all the principal and interest." ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, the laughing Woods Beauty was both frightened and ashamed, Woods Beauty is the head of the Yingwang Mansion Music Class, according to the rules of this line, as long as you are in the class, you are not allowed to talk about marriage, Woods Beauty does not want to give up the glory and wealth in front of her, and can't bear to be lonely and lonely, so she secretly raised a second master outside, and only called it his godbrother to the outside world, the second master is a good gambler, owes a lot of gambling debts, and sees that he can't pay off the money of Woods Beauty.

The casino couldn't collect the account, so they asked Woods Beauty, they threatened that if Woods Beauty didn't give money, they would make her second master outside public, Woods Beauty naturally calculated the stakes in the middle, so she could only swallow her anger and take out the money one by one, and exhausted all her savings in two years, and the last one was not repaid.

"Big brother, don't listen to her nonsense, this kind of nonsense, only ghosts believe it, simply, give her some color to see, let her know that the words of the master are not a joke."

After the young man finished speaking, he took out a shining dagger, compared it to a painting in front of Woods' eyes, and shouted in his mouth: "If you don't want to pay money, it doesn't matter, let me cut a few knives on your face, how about a hundred taels of silver for a knife." "Although Woods Beauty is in her thirties, she is well-maintained, and her face is as beautiful as a ten-year-old girl.

"How much does she owe you?" Zhang Yingying stepped forward and stopped in front of Woodsmei,

"Little girl, don't worry about you, go away."

"I'll pay her back." Zhang Yingying's words landed soundly, the young man was stunned, and Woods was also stunned.

The beard circled around Zhang Yingying for a while, and said with a cold snort: "She owes us three hundred and eighty-nine taels of silver, which is not a small amount, little sister, you really have to pay this account for her." ”

"Send someone with me, and I'll give you the money." Zhang Yingying has an unusual calmness,

The beard tilted his head, and the young man who was playing with the knife put away the knife and said to Zhang Yingying: "Please, little sister, I'll go with you to get the money." ”

"Wait." Zhang Yingying suddenly shouted, her eyes staring at her beard, "After paying back the money, if you are still entangled, what do you say." ”

Everyone burst into laughter, and said with a beard: "Don't worry, little sister, the ghost gang has always said that one is one, and it is much more trustworthy than your government." ”

Zhang Yingying nodded and said with a smile: "Ghost Gang, I remember, if you don't talk nonsense, I will let you all get out of Chang'an City." After saying that, she climbed into the carriage and shouted at the young man who was in a daze: "What are you still doing, go quickly." ”

The carriage stopped outside the main gate of Yingwangfu, the reason why it did not go to the wrong door, in order not to let them know the small door in the backyard, so as not to trouble in the future, the young man who drove the car smiled and said to Zhang Yingying: "More than three hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, little sister, do you want my brother to go down and help you get it." Zhang Yingying smiled: "That's the best, but the palace guards all have sharp noses, in case I smell the ghost qi on your body and arrest you, I can't save you." The young man was silent for a moment,

When Zhang Yingying got out of the car, he saw a young man walking towards the gate of the palace with an attendant, Zhang Yingying looked familiar, took a closer look, was surprised, and waved his hand: "Brother Mu, why are you here." "The person who came is the new Tiande Army stationed in Shangdu Jinju Academy Cheng Ying Lang Mu Lanqing,

"Little sister, what a coincidence, I'm about to see you."

A flower bloomed on Zhang Yingying's pink cheeks, and her expression suddenly became timid.

The young man driving the car coughed and looked over here, Zhang Yingying said angrily: "What to urge, promise you, I will naturally do it." ”

The young man pointed to the sky and said, "Miss, it's getting dark, the curfew is starting, and no one can leave." ”

Zhang Yingying glared at him, took Mu Lanqing's hand and entered the gate of the palace, Mu Lanqing asked as she walked: "This person is full of rivers and lakes, little sister, what happened, do you want me to help." ”

Zhang Yingying shook her head and smiled: "It's okay, a friend of mine owes a sum of money to the ghost gang, and I said to help her pay it back, but I hate this guy for always nagging." ”

When Mu Lanqing heard the words "ghost gang", his face changed slightly, but he said: "There are a few friends of mine in the Chang'an ghost gang, if you want to help, just give up." ”

Zhang Yingying thought for a while and said, "No need, it's a matter of three or four hundred taels of silver, and you can't let Brother Mu hurt your friend's face." Mu Lanqing smiled and didn't answer, Zhang Yingying took a gold bar and some broken silver, wrapped it in a silk handkerchief, and asked Mu Lanqing: "Do you want to go together, or sit here and wait for me to come back." ”

Mu Lanqing smiled: "Let's go with you, otherwise Manager Wang will come back and think that I stole his silver." Zhang Yingying glared at him, pursed her lips and smiled, when she came to Yongjiafang, it was already dark, Mu Lanqing sat in the car and did not move, Zhang Yingying threw the silk bag to the bearded man and said: "Three hundred and eighty-nine twenty-five dollars, you have ordered." ”

The bearded man put the gold bar in his hand, threw back the broken silver left in the silk bag, and said, "We want the official to cast the whole silver, not this kind of broken silver." ”

The fineness of the official casting silver is guaranteed, the fineness of this broken silver is not good, and the value is not high, Zhang Yingying didn't expect this layer, and misunderstood that the beard deliberately wanted to squeeze himself, and he was anxious to cry.

Mu Lanqing coughed, jumped out of the car, and held a silver ingot of twenty taels in his hand: "Is it okay to add this?" ”

The bearded man took the silver ingot, glanced at Mu Lanqing, waved his hand back, the two teenagers took Wu Zimei out, the delivery was completed, Mu Lanqing drove the two back to the house, at this moment it was the end of the hour, Chang'an City had begun a curfew, but relying on the two palace lights in front of the carriage, it was also unimpeded all the way, and in front of the Wang Chun courtyard on the west side of the palace, Mu Lanqing put down the two and was about to drive away with the attendant Li Hai, when suddenly, two assassins came out from behind the locust tree on the street, waving their knives to look at Zhang Yingying and Wu Zimei.

Neither of them knew martial arts, and under the fright, they even made a sound, Mu Lanqing picked up the horsewhip and stepped forward, but the assassin cut off his horsewhip with only one knife, raised his foot and kicked Mu Lanqing on the heel, Lehi roared, raised his foot and kicked the knife in the assassin's hand, and put it to the ground with a series of sweeping legs,

Another assassin's martial arts were obviously superior, and he cut Li Hai's right leg in just one hand, raised his foot and kicked him over the head, Li Hai's ribs were broken, and he couldn't stand under the severe pain, the assassin raised his knife and went straight to Zhang Yingying, Mu Lanqing picked up the horizontal knife on the ground, protected Zhang Yingying's side, and whispered: "Go back to the house quickly." Zhang Yingying was so frightened that the six gods had no owner, and she took out the key and hurriedly opened the lock, the more anxious she was, the more she didn't listen to the call, and it took a long time to find where the keyhole was.

Mu Lanqing held the knife in both hands, looked at the assassin and roared, and slashed down on the head, Mu Lanqing does not know martial arts, this trick is a trick he learned in the martial arts academy, it is okay to fool the layman, it is really not worth it in the eyes of experts, the corner of the assassin's mouth was slightly raised, and he snorted contemptuously, he did not dodge or dodge, and stabbed Mu Lanqing in the lower abdomen, he had already seen that Mu Lanqing did not know martial arts, and he could kill him with one move, killing the opponent in the confrontation was more enjoyable than stabbing from behind,

Strange things happened, his knife had just been handed out, suddenly his ribs were numb, half of his body suddenly lost consciousness, the victory and defeat suddenly reversed, the knife in his hand failed to pierce the opponent's lower abdomen as scheduled and then stirred, but the opponent's knife slashed down against the brain,

"Ahh

After a scream, Mu Lanqing's face was splashed with blood, his arm was numb from the shock, and the sharp long knife had already slashed into the opponent's head, corpses, hot blood and bloody knives...... Mu Lanqing was so frightened that she fell to the ground,

At this moment, the assassin who was originally defeated by Lehi suddenly pulled out a short dagger and stabbed it towards the heart, Mu Lanqing instinctively shouted: "Don't die......" Li Haifei rushed over, and snatched the dagger from the assassin's hand after a scuffle, at this time Mu Lanqing also relieved, and the two worked together to tie up the assassin,

At this moment, only a crossbow sound was heard, and a crossbow arrow broke through the air, hitting the center of the assassin's eyebrows, and at the same time, dozens of Jing Zhaoluo soldiers swarmed in, surrounding Mu Lanqing, Zhang Yingying and others.
