Chapter 2 Misfortune does not go alone

On a moonless night, it was as dark as ink, covering up the prosperity and years.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and it was particularly abrupt in the silent night.

An extremely ordinary single carriage galloped on the wide official road, the coachman with a cold face, dressed in night clothes hidden in the dark night like a night elf, the whip in his hand has been raised high and never fallen, all around, the figure is constantly flashing, following around the carriage, looming.

In the carriage, a young man in a black brocade robe curled up in a small space, his eyes were full of fear, thinking of his father's majestic and fierce words just now, the young man's heart seemed to be pierced by a sharp sword, and slowly lost all the temperature.

The young man's name is Chu Xiaofeng, His Royal Highness the Third Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the widow of Empress Zhenwu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is rumored that when he was born, the entire Yanjing City was sprinkled with purple flowers and rain, and the clouds danced in the sky, and there was a faint sound of dragons and phoenixes, and he was shocked by the world. Therefore, there is still a saying among the people: the sky is full of rain and purple, and the queen gives birth to a true dragon.

The bitter cold wind howled, freezing the water on the side of the road, smooth as a mirror. Chu Xiaofeng hugged his arms tightly, trying to make himself warmer, but unfortunately, his heart became colder and colder. Suddenly, he hugged his head hard, whimpered in a low voice, and tears of pain instantly wet his good coat, and his heart was very chaotic and chaotic at this time.

How could I forcibly insult Miss Guan? I just wanted to sleep for a while because I was tired, why did I wake up again and have already committed a mortal sin? I have been wronged, doesn't my father, who has always been wise, know? Chu Xiaofeng thought distressedly, he really didn't know that his frail and sickly body still had such explosive power, and he could actually rape a fierce girl who lived outside the fortress all the year round and practiced martial arts since childhood.

Guan Xiaoxuan, he knows this woman, the pearl of the Guan family, who guards the frontier with his father all the year round, in his memory, Guan Xiaoxuan was delicate and lovely when he was a child, and he was a very popular little girl, but as she got older and older, she gradually became a female overlord, relying on her martial arts to run rampant, even the eldest brother with the most outstanding martial arts was not her opponent, and her weak self since childhood was often the object of her focus "care".

"Forget it, since you did it, let's do it, that fierce girl has bullied me many times, this time I gave it back to her, but can I come back alive when I go to the border?" Thinking of his weak body, Chu Xiaofeng asked himself in confusion, just now, his father personally told him that he had been demoted to a commoner and sent to the frontier to fill the army.

Looking at the book in his hand, the young man's tears couldn't help but flow down again, his dignified Royal Highness of the Zhou Dynasty is now unjust, and he has been demoted to the common people and the army, even if he is open-minded on weekdays, he can't bear such grievances.

"Huh" Just when Chu Xiaofeng sighed that his fate was ill-fated, with a short low roar from the coachman, the carriage stopped abruptly, and in the darkness ahead, a row of black-clothed people wearing golden spider-shaped masks stood tall, and eight cold light flickering tentacles extended from the hideous mask, and the golden scimitar flashing with blood light in his hand was scorching, and on them, a cold that surpassed the temperature suddenly came.

"Do you want to rebel?" The cold coachman shouted in a low voice, the high horsewhip fell fiercely, and the surroundings fluctuated slightly, but there was no reaction at all, the coachman's face was cold, but his heart sank.

"The first product in front of the palace guards Xiao Xiao with a knife, are you willing to join the old man's command?" In the crowd opposite, an old man with gray hair walked out from behind and whispered. He was dressed in brocade blue, with a slender figure, and his majestic stride was full of grandeur, the mask on his face was slightly different, the color was slightly reddish, but the workmanship was more fine, and a huge ruby on his forehead was crystal clear, which was very valuable.

In such a dark night, if it seems to ordinary people, there is almost nothing in front of him, but Xiao Xiao has practiced martial arts since he was a child, his ears are deaf, and his eyesight is extraordinary, even in such a dark night, he can still clearly see the clothes of the people in front of him.

"Xiao Xiao's parents died in the war since he was a child, and in the eighth year of Zhenwu, His Majesty personally went into battle, drove his own expedition, and retreated thousands of miles away from the Hulu Tartars and did not dare to have any more plans, Xiao Bucai, I am willing to repay Your Majesty for expelling the Tartars with what I have learned in my life." Xiao Xiao still had a cold and handsome face, and there was a scorching heat in his eyes as if he was about to burn out the dust of this troubled world.

"In that case, what does Guard Xiao think of me, the Golden Spider Guard?" Hearing Xiao Xiao's answer, the old man did not have the slightest fluctuation in his expression, but continued to ask.

"The Golden Spider Guards of the Taishi are all brave warriors, and everyone has experienced inhuman training, and the natural killing aura on their bodies alone is enough to deter the enemy thousands of miles away." Xiao Xiao didn't think about it at all, and answered directly.

"Hahaha, this golden spider guard has spent half of the old man's life, and the old man is also confident that there will be no more guards to stand out in the big week." The old man was very satisfied with Xiao Xiao's evaluation, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

"Could it be that the Taishi doesn't even let go of an ordinary cloth clothes!" A majestic shout came from the carriage, Chu Xiaofeng flicked the curtain with both hands, walked out of the carriage, and said coldly.

"You are not an ordinary pariah, your birth has brought too many variables, if it weren't for the birthday of the Son of Heaven, His Majesty intends to make you the prince, how can I expose the power of the Taishi Mansion so early." The old man's voice suddenly froze, and he said coldly.

"I see, I didn't understand who had such power to frame the prince of a country, it turned out to be my own brother." Tears fell from the corners of Chu Xiaofeng's eyes again, he didn't know how many times he had shed tears since he woke up, but he knew that every time he shed a tear, his heart became stronger.

"It is said that His Royal Highness sends love for calligraphy and painting, travels in the mountains and rivers, and does not do business, but the old man has always held a different point of view, of course, the old man has always called it forbearance." The old man's voice was slightly softened, but there was more murder in his tone.

"Your Majesty has long been secretly investigating the hidden forces of various families, but you still underestimate your strength, how can you say that the Thirteen Wings of the Dragon Guard are also the most prestigious guards of the Great Zhou Dynasty, I didn't expect to be so vulnerable in front of the Golden Spider Guard." Xiao Xiao laughed self-deprecatingly, thinking about the promise he had sworn at the beginning, he only felt bitter in his stomach.

"It's useless to talk more, the old man will leave you a whole corpse, but Your Royal Highness, you can only be wronged by your bones and ashes!" The old man whispered, and all the figures behind him flew out quickly.

The sound of "whooshing" broke the air one after another, and the golden scimitar drove the black chains at the handle of the blade to weave a large net in mid-air, encircling the entire carriage, and the speed was so fast that it almost tore through the howling wind.

"Your Highness, hide behind me!" Xiao Xiao pulled Chu Xiaofeng down, and the horsewhip in his hand was violently withdrawn, and the power of Wan Jun instantly shattered the black iron net. However, at the same time as the iron net was shattered, a dozen golden scimitars were like pythons attacking their prey.

"Puff puff" More than a dozen skin-cutting sounds came, vermilion sprinkled down, Xiao Xiao had become a bloody man, and he was seriously injured before he fell in a round, which made him completely desperate with a trace of luck.

"Escort Xiao, I'm dragging you down, you go quickly! Let my father avenge me! Chu Xiaofeng was shocked to see that Xiao Xiao was seriously injured, and he couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly shouted. If it weren't for his own protection, how could he block all the scimitars that attacked, and even if he was defeated, he could dodge.

"Your Royal Highness, let's take care of yourself!" A mocking cold drink came from behind him, Chu Xiaofeng was startled, and hurriedly turned around, but saw that the old man was already standing on the roof of the car at some point, jumped down, struck out with both palms, and came straight to the door in front of him.

"Ahh With a scream, the old man quickly took a few steps back, his arms hung down weakly, as if he had lost consciousness, he looked at Chu Xiaofeng in fear, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness to hide deeply, the old man was careless!" ”

"Xiaofeng has been sick since he was a child, and he is quite curious about acupuncture, so he begged the imperial doctor in the palace to teach him some fur, and he put silver needles in his inner pocket on weekdays in case of emergency, but I didn't expect that I could deal with you today!" Chu Xiaofeng raised his right hand, and a slender silver needle appeared in the gap between his middle and index fingers, shaking in the wind.

"Humph! Good! Very good! The old man's face was full of anger, which was unique in his decades of political career, and today he was actually injured by a weak sick man, which is the biggest shame in his life.

As the old man's voice fell, the golden scythe flew again, the graceful arc outlining the totem of death, and the black chains intertwined to form the entrance to hell.

"Guard Xiao retreated east with me." Surprised to see that the Golden Spider Guard was so terrifying, Chu Xiaofeng said in a low voice.

"Huh? I understand. Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then he was happy in his heart, because he also faintly heard the sound of turbulent water from the east, presumably there was a river of considerable scale, perhaps, this was the way to live.

"Whoosh" Countless subtle sounds came out, and Chu Xiaofeng threw all the silver needles on his body towards the surrounding golden spider guards, and suddenly screamed. Although the night is dark and the wind is high at this moment, because Chu Xiaofeng has been practicing acupuncture all year round, his control of the acupuncture points of the human body and the strength of the hair needle have reached a height that is difficult for ordinary people to reach. Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Xiao Xiao picked up Chu Xiaofeng and flew away, feeling a trace of admiration for this Third Highness in his heart, he could still maintain such a sober and calm mind in such a sinister environment, it seems that His Majesty's choice is not wrong.
