At noon, the scorching sun seems to roast everything, and the rolled up leaves are powerless to sway, Qingshan Town is even more deadly silent, not to mention the usual shouting, children's crying, even a birdsong can not be heard, as for the Qingshan Inn, it is even more quiet and terrible, coupled with bursts of blood, it is like a dead land.

Tianwei has completely controlled Qingshan Town, especially the Qingshan Inn, even if a fly flies in, it will be killed immediately, but even so, Chu Zheng is still not at ease, and personally sits at the door to protect Guo Zhenxing, and the horizontal knife is placed on his knees, and the blood stains on it have turned black, and it is more and more conspicuous on the dazzling long knife.

At this moment, not only Chu Zheng looked solemn, but Li Shixin, who was sitting in the lobby, was also silent

Sitting in the lobby, surrounded by dead bodies and blackened bloodstains, Li Shixin's eyes were closed tightly, and his mind was uncertain.

The whole process of the assassin's assassination of Chu Haoyu flashed in Li Shixin's mind over and over again, the position where the black-clothed assassin was lying, his body style, swordsmanship, and that inexplicable smile, and even everyone's reaction. Li Shixin always wanted to find something from it, something that was ignored by everyone. Suddenly, Li Shixin opened his eyes and looked out the door.

A black-clothed guard flew into the lobby, bowed in front of Li Shixin, and then lowered his voice as much as he could: "Commander, there is a large group of people coming from the south, it should be a disciple of the Tibetan Sword Villa." ”

"Find out and report later." Looking at the black-clothed guard, Li Shixin's eyes suddenly showed a touch of ruthlessness, and then he said: "Be on guard first, anyone who dares to break in will be killed!" In the last two words, Li Shixin even aggravated his tone.

After hearing what Li Shixin said, the black-clothed guard took two steps back before turning around and leaving. It didn't take long for the black-clothed guard to walk in again, bow down and bow, "Commander, the person who came is Second Master Guo of the Hidden Sword Villa, and he brought nearly fifty masters. ”

With a light on his head, Li Shixin spoke: "Let them wait outside the town." Seeing that the black-clothed guard turned around and was about to leave, Li Shixin suddenly said, "Wait a minute, let me think about it." ”

After a moment of silence, a cold light suddenly flashed in Li Shixin's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Let Zexing come in, as for the others, you bring people to surround them, and those who dare to move will be killed!" ”

The black-clothed guard never hesitated to give the order, and turned around and left. After a moment, a figure appeared at the door of the inn, and it was the second owner of the Tibetan Sword Villa, Guo Zexing.

Looking at the corpses all over the ground in the lobby, smelling the pungent blood, especially if he didn't see his eldest brother Guo Zhenxing, Guo Zexing suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and there was undisguised shock, worry, and even fear in his eyes.

Seeing Guo Zexing's expression in his eyes, Li Shixin understood a little, and was a little relieved but even more angry, staring at Guo Zexing expressionlessly.

Taking a deep breath to calm down the shock in his heart, Guo Zexing put away the worry in his eyes, walked in with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Why is Second Brother Li here, what about Big Brother?" ”

Guo Zhenxing is good friends with Li Shixin, Guo Zexing has always called him the second brother, especially after Li Shixin entered Tianwei, Guo Zexing has to visit every time he enters Kyoto.

Li Shixin's gaze still never took off Guo Zexing's face, and he said without saltiness: "The Seventh Prince is seriously injured, and Zhenxing is healing the Seventh Prince. ”

"What?" In the unbearable shouting, Guo Zexing's color changed instantly, and he almost jumped up, but he hurriedly lowered his voice and asked, "How is the Seventh Prince now?" ”

Shaking his head slightly, Li Shixin said coldly: "I don't know, but if the seventh prince is a little worse, you and I will wait for the burial." ”

Hearing what Li Shixin said was so serious, Guo Zexing's eyelids couldn't help jumping, so that the wrinkles were deep like ravines.

Seeing Guo Zexing's expression, Li Shixin's voice became more and more cold, and said, "These are all people in your secret pavilion?" ”

Squeezing out a wry smile, Guo Zexing said softly: "Second brother, the secret pavilion is also the younger brother playing around, who is in it, Second Brother Li, you still don't know, how can any master hurt the Seventh Prince in front of the second brother and General Chu?" ”

Hearing Guo Zexing's words, Li Shixin's eyes suddenly burst out with two cold glints, and he stared straight at Guo Zexing and said, "The Seventh Prince just stabbed someone in front of me and General Chu, and moreover, the person still came out of your Hidden Sword Villa." As for whether it is a disciple of the Hidden Sword Villa, hmph, you can explain it to the saint! ”

At this moment, how could Guo Zexing not understand that he had said the wrong thing, and he hated to slap himself in his heart, but Guo Zexing wanted to laugh and say: "Second Brother Li, this time, everything depends on you, Second Brother, the younger brother really doesn't know that he is the Seventh Prince." ”

With another cold snort, Li Shixin said unceremoniously: "It's not that the Seventh Prince can be killed, your Tibetan Sword Villa is so majestic!" ”

Under Li Shixin's gaze, there was cold sweat oozing from Guo Zexing's forehead, and Guo Zexing even felt that his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

Taking a deep breath to stabilize his body, Guo Zexing didn't explain more, but said: "Second Brother Li, this time the younger brother is reckless, and I ask Second Brother Li to help the younger brother and help me Hidden Sword Villa!" At the end of the words, Guo Zexing knelt down and slammed his head on the ground.

Seeing Guo Zexing kneeling, Li Shixin frowned slightly, and finally sighed lightly, and said: "Get up, this time, it's really that you are too confused, and you are messing around with the third child." Get up! ”

Standing up, Guo Zexing said with a smile: "What the second brother said is that it was the younger brother who was confused to do such a thing, and then he must make amends to the Seventh Prince." As for the third child, the eldest brother has already punished him for retreat and thought. After a pause, Guo Zexing continued: "It's just that I'm going to trouble the second brother." ”

"Trouble?" In his own voice, Li Shixin smiled bitterly and said: "I was ordered by the emperor to protect the Seventh Prince to return to Beijing, and now that the Seventh Prince is injured, it is a dereliction of duty, if the Seventh Prince really makes a mistake, can I escape?" Now, everything can only look at the Seventh Prince, it's okay to say, if something really happens......" The following words, Li Shixin finally did not speak, but turned into a helpless sigh.

When the sigh fell, the lobby fell silent again. In the deathly silence, he suddenly noticed something, Li Shixin flew up and ran to the backyard, seeing this, Guo Zexing hesitated for a moment and finally raised his footsteps.

In the backyard, only Chu Zheng stood solemnly in the courtyard, staring straight at the door with his round eyes, and there was undisguised expectation in his eyes.

Under the gaze of Chu Zheng, Li Shixin, and Guo Zexing, the door of the house was finally opened, and Guo Zhenxing was seen.

It's only been a morning, Guo Zhenxing's face has become pale, and his eyes are no longer as bright as before, but fortunately, there is a happy look on his face, which makes the three of them feel a lot more at ease.

Although Chu Zheng was anxious, he still lowered his voice and asked, "How is it?" ”

Closing the door, Guo Zhenxing chuckled lightly and said, "It's okay, it's just that the meridians of the Seventh Prince were injured by the sword qi, although the old man removed the sword qi in the body of the Seven Princes, he also repaired most of the meridians, and it will take a period of rest to heal." ”

Chu Zheng was also a master, so he couldn't help but nodded, but suddenly he thought of something and hurriedly asked, "Will the damaged meridians affect the young master's martial arts?" ”

Shaking his head, Guo Zhenxing said with a smile: "General Chu has filtered." The Seventh Prince's second vein has been opened, but he will be injured by the sword qi if he doesn't know how to apply it, fortunately, Commander Li protected the prince's heart in advance, and the sword qi did not hurt the vital point, as long as the Seventh Prince's body can rest in peace for a few days, it will naturally be fine. ”

Hearing Guo Zhenxing say this, Li Shixin also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The Seventh Prince is meditating, let's go outside and talk about it, so as not to disturb the Seventh Prince." ”

At this moment, Chu Zheng's frowning brows finally loosened. Nodding, and then looking at Guo Zhenxing's pale face, Chu Zheng opened his mouth and said: "Then Guo Lao'er, you can rest for a while, but ......" In the elongated voice, Chu Zheng's eyes shot two cold rays, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter, General Ben must have an explanation." After finishing speaking, Chu Zheng ignored Guo Zhenxing's reaction, sat down cross-legged again, closed his eyes and seemed to be too empty.

Seeing Guo Zhenxing smile bitterly, Li Shixin also looked helpless, and said softly: "Go out first, don't disturb the Seventh Prince." ”

Walking out of the backyard and seeing that Guo Zhenxing's footsteps were a little frivolous, Li Shixin sighed lightly and said, "Brother Guo, you better find a place to breathe for a while." ”

Shaking his head, Guo Zhenxing smiled even more bitterly and said, "How can I still breathe with peace of mind now, and I can't delay for a moment." Zexing, you go out first. ”

Hearing the eldest brother Guo Zhenxing say this, Guo Zexing understood that things might not be as simple as he said, and he didn't talk nonsense, so he bowed down and retreated.

Seeing Guo Zexing retreat, Guo Zhenxing casually found a bench to sit down, took a deep breath and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Li Shixin sat down opposite Guo Zhenxing, did not hide the helplessness on his face at all, and sighed: "I came to protect the seventh prince to return to Beijing by the emperor's order." ”

Nodding, Guo Zhenxing then asked, "Does the emperor really love the Seventh Prince so much?" ”

Suddenly, a cold light flashed in Li Shixin's eyes, and he stared straight at Guo Zhenxing and asked, "What happened to the Seventh Prince?" ”

Under Li Shixin's gaze, Guo Zhenxing's pale face showed a chuckle, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the Seventh Prince is fine, it's just that his qualifications and foundation are too good." When I was healing the Seventh Prince, I found that the Second Pulse of the Seventh Prince's Ren Du had been opened, and the Seventh Prince's Seventh Prince's Father seemed to have been washed and cut off by the master of the Grandmaster Realm, and the path of martial arts in the future was unlimited. At the end of the words, Guo Zhenxing couldn't help sighing.

After staring at Guo Zhenxing for a moment again, Li Shixin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Guo has forgotten that the first emperor is a generation of grandmasters?" ”

After a pause, Li Shixin said slowly: "When the Seventh Prince was born, it was the beginning of the world, and the first emperor had a son in his old age, how could he not love it. After the birth of the Seventh Prince, the first emperor saw that the Seventh Prince's qualifications were extremely high, so he wantonly collected elixirs and spent several years cultivating to wash the marrow and cut hair for the Seventh Prince, laying the foundation of martial arts for the Seventh Prince. Speaking of this, Li Shixin suddenly lowered his voice and said, "The first emperor did this, but he also hoped that the Seventh Prince would be able to concentrate on martial arts. ”

Guo Zhenxing understood what Li Shixin meant, nodded and said, "What does the emperor think of the Seventh Prince?" ”

Staring at Guo Zhenxing, Li Shixin's eyes were cold again, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Guo, this is not something you and I can guess. ”

Seeing Guo Zhenxing nodding, Li Shixin sighed lightly: "The Seventh Prince is young and naughty, and the Holy Lord also loves this brother very much. In the past three years, the emperor has already controlled the power, and the seventh prince left Beijing to guard the filial piety of the first emperor, because the emperor felt that he owed some debt to this young brother, and he had opened a mansion for him, close to the imperial city, you must know that the seventh prince is only sixteen now. What's more, Brother Guo must not forget that the Queen Mother is still alive. ”

Nodding, Guo Zhenxing pondered again. Suddenly, Guo Zhenxing stared straight at Li Shixin and asked, "Are you really here to protect the Seventh Prince by the emperor's order?" ”

Snorting lightly, Li Shixin said impatiently: "Can this still be fake?" Do you want me to show you the Holy Decree? ”

Shaking his head slightly, Guo Zhenxing said: "No, but as the commander of the Eagle Guard, it will not be so simple for you to go out of Beijing to protect the Seventh Prince." ”

After staring at Guo Zhenxing for a moment, Li Shixin suddenly laughed, and seeing Li Shixin's smile, Guo Zhenxing knew that he had guessed correctly.
