The days passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye it was the end of the first month.

In the past few days, Ji Jing seems to be very calm, all forces are peaceful, the crown prince Li Wei has not shown up for many days, the fifth prince Li Cheng is dedicated to drumming up the establishment of his Beizhen Fusi Jinyi Guard, it is said that there are nearly 1,000 Jinyi Guards in the establishment, compared to the six doors of the nominal Nanzhen Fusi under Xie An, it is simply a world of difference.

Everything seems to be different from the past, the only anomaly is that in the Jizhou military base camp forty miles away from Jijing, among the 80,000 Jizhou troops, as many as 30,000 troops were led by the former general Xin Ming and the cavalry general Dong Yao, who left the camp on the morning of the 27th day of the first lunar month, and went to Taihang Mountain on the grounds of half-training and half-suppressing bandits.

Other than that, Ji Jing didn't have anything abnormal, but the person with sharp intuition smelled a few hints of dangerous information from this silence.

On the evening of the 30th day of the first lunar month, the sun set, and the officials of the government in the capital of Hebei finished their official duties for the day and returned to their mansions, while the ordinary people also bought the dishes of the day from the market and went home to prepare dinner.

As the sky gradually darkened and the night gradually fell, everything in the capital of Jijing, fǎngfo seemed so calm, only occasionally you could hear the slight sound of smacking, and if you looked closely, occasionally nénggou saw a few fast-moving black-clothed people in the streets and alleys of the city.

In the south direction of Jijing, on a tree near Yong'anmen, Mo Fei, the [sickle] of the Dongling people, was half-lying on the branch with his head on the trunk of the tree, looking at the dark night sky without any moonlight and starlight with an expressionless face, and sometimes tilting his head to look at the direction of the Yong'anmen gate, as if he was monitoring every move of the city gate.

I don't know how long it took, Mo Fei's eyes looking blankly at the dark night sky changed slightly, and his right hand quietly withdrew from under his head. He shook the scythe hanging from his waist.

At this moment, only to hear a loud sound, a man in black jumped up to the treetop out of nowhere, standing on the branch opposite Mo Fei, this person came up and wrapped the ground tightly in black cloth, and dressed as an assassin with Mo Fei. The only person who showed his identity was the black-clothed person who came to the body, embroidered with a faintly visible pattern, and when you look closely, it looks like a cross-shaped dart.

The cross-shaped mark, which was the symbol of the assassin of the Jinling Dangerous Tower, glanced at the mark, and Mo Fei's right hand that pinched the handle of the sickle was released, just like Fang Cai. Keep your head on your head and look at the sky.

At this time, the man in black had already torn off the black cloth covering his face, and through the faint light of the bonfire from the direction of Yong'an Gate, it could be vaguely seen that this person was the assassin of the Jinling Dangerous Building, Ding Qiu.

"Is there any movement?" Glancing in the direction of Yong'an Gate, Ding Qiu asked in a low voice.

Maybe it's because he's not good at words, or maybe it's too lazy to talk nonsense with Ding Qiu, who is an assassin in a dangerous building. Hearing Ding Qiu's question, Mo Fei just glanced at him lightly with his eyes. Turn a deaf ear to.

Although Ding Qiu Zhidào Mofei meant that everything was normal, the latter's cold attitude still made him feel a little embarrassed and angry.

It is no wonder that the Bijing Dongling people and the Jinling Weilou Assassins fought in Jijing for a whole month, during which the two sides suffered casualties and owed each other dozens or even hundreds of lives. Although both sides have now invested in Xie An's command, how can the grievances formed a few days ago be resolved so easily?

Just when Ding Qiu was secretly thinking about how to communicate with Mo Fei, a guy with a cold face and a cold heart, he suddenly heard a slight sound of wind, and subconsciously. Ding Qiu and Mo Fei invariably reached for the blade they were carrying.

And at this moment, another man in black jumped up to the treetops, and it was not until they saw that the sign on Qingchu's chest was unique to Jinling Dangerous Tower, that Ding Qiu and Mo Fei relaxed their guard.

At this time, the man in black also took off the black cloth on his face, and looking at his appearance, it was Xiao Li, the assassin of the dangerous building known as the ghost wolf.

"Yo, Ding Qiu, how is the situation in Zuo'anmen?" Xiao Li asked in a low voice.

Ding Qiu shook his head when he heard this, and said in a low voice, "There hasn't been any movement for the time being, I left two brothers to keep an eye on it, come here and take a look...... What about you? ”

Xiao Li shrugged his shoulders and whispered, "It's the same as you!" ”

Acquaintance smiled, Ding Qiu and Xiao Li sat down on the branch, looking in the direction of Yong'an Gate, Xiao Li asked curiously, "I still don't want to mingbái, why is the second lady so sure that the rebellious army will enter the city through Yong'an Gate?" If you want to say that the closest city gate to the palace, shouldn't it be Xizhi Gate or Fucheng Gate? ”

Ding Qiu shook his head when he heard this, and said angrily, "It must be that your kid was absent-minded at that time, and the second lady said it to us at that time...... Xizhimen is the city gate where the Eastern Army is stationed, and Fuchengmen is not far from the Eastern Army barracks in the capital of Hebei...... Moreover, Yong'anmen was chosen precisely because it is far away from the Imperial Palace......"

After Ding Qiu's explanation, Xiao Li nodded suddenly in realization, and was about to say something shime, when he suddenly heard a contemptuous snort from not far away, and immediately turned his head to Mo Fei, and said with an unkind expression, "Hey, Dongling bastard, you hum shime?" ”

"......" Mo Fei's eyes were cold when he heard this, his sharp gaze like a blade swept over Xiao Li coldly, and he said bluntly in a slightly hoarse voice, "Your subordinates are defeated!" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Li was ashamed and angry, gritted his teeth and whispered, "Are you arrogant? I'm afraid you won't make it? Come on! Don't think that if you are the second lady's guard, you can show off your might in front of us! ”

Having said that, Xiao Li can't help but feel a little weak-hearted, when it comes to assassination, Mo Fei is the best among the people in Dongling, among the assassins in Jinling Dangerous Tower, except for the head assassin Jin Ling'er, no one is Mo Fei's opponent, at least, Xiao Li has almost died in the hands of Mo Fei several times.

Perhaps seeing that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two, Ding Qiu hurriedly said in a round game, "Mo Fei, we are now friends and not enemies, we are all working for Lord Xie, there is no difference between you and us, you have the best attitude to be polite!" Xiao Li, shut up for me! ”

Seeing Ding Qiu mention Xie An, Xiao Li was a little more restrained, and although Mo Fei covered his face with a black cloth and couldn't see what his expression was, he didn't say shime again.

Seeing this, Ding Qiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. I really don't know what Master Xie thinks, but he actually asked the Ziji Jinling Dangerous Tower Assassin to monitor the movements in the capital of Ji with the Dongling people. The two sides who were still in a deathmatch more than ten days ago, will it be a good thing to get together?

Thinking of this, Ding Qiu sighed slightly, and he missed Jin Ling'er, the pillar of their assassin in the dangerous building.

According to his understanding, after Dongling Zhong joined Xie An's command, he was valued by Xie An's second wife, the eldest grandson Xiangyu, for some reason. At present, not only has he taken over the prison of the Great Prison Temple, but even Xie An seems to have the intention of including the Dongling people in the establishment of the Six Gates of the Fusi in Nanzhen, which is not good news for the assassins of Jinling Dangerous Tower.

Bijing and both sides are assassins, what they can do as the Dangerous Mansion Assassins, the Dongling people can also do it, once the Dongling Crowd has a solid foundation in the forces under Xie An's command, leave them with the scope of authority of the Dangerous Mansion Assassins. Obviously, it will be much smaller, with Jin Ling'er and Xie An's guānxi, and their assassins will not be able to set up another mountain and switch to another place in the future.

Eldest sister, where are you right now?

You're one of the dignified [Four Princesses], so you're not going to be trapped by those people around Li Cheng, right?

At the same time, in an underground secret room in the deep courtyard of the Fifth Prince Li Cheng's mansion, Jin Ling'er's hands were locked behind his back, and even his feet were chained by iron cables. Sit on the haystack in the corner of the chamber with your eyes closed.

This secret room. It seems to be the difāng used by Li Cheng to imprison disobedient people, the secret room is covered with cobwebs, the environment is very poor, and the only wooden table in the center of the room, there is an oil lamp, adding some light to this dim environment.

I don't know how long it took. There was a sound of footsteps outside the iron door of the secret room, and then, with a click, the lock on the iron door was opened, and one of the guards pushed open the iron door and walked in. The oil lamp in his hand shone in the direction of Jin Ling'er, and then walked out again, locking the iron door with a click.

Just after the guards left the secret room, Jin Ling'er slowly opened her eyes and quietly listened to the conversation of the guards outside the secret room.

"How?"

"Don't worry, that woman is honestly staying indoors! I really don't know what His Highness thinks, but not only did he send twenty people to guard the woman, but he also told me to go to the secret room every other stick of incense...... The woman's hands and feet were chained by iron ropes, could she still run? ”

"You don't know the identity of this woman, it is said that this woman is the head of the assassins in Jinling Weilou, and the [ghost queen] in the [Four Concubines] is not small! Don't be careless when we wait, in case that woman escapes, Your Highness will blame you, and I can't afford to wait! ”

"Hmm...... Speaking of which, if you don't look at that woman's face, that woman is a stunner......"

"Hey, hey, what about your kid's idea of hitting the shime? Don't forget, that woman kills people without blinking, and if you are not careful, you may be killed by that woman...... Watch out for your little life! ”

"Hey! I don't believe that woman has such great ability, and she can get out of trouble with iron chains all over her body! ”

"That's right...... But it's always a good idea to be careful! ”

"Hmm!"

After a long sigh, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, and her shoulders slammed into the shadows, only to hear two crisp sounds, her two jade arms suddenly dislocated, and hung down weakly.

Enduring the juliè pain caused by the dislocation of her arms, Jin Ling'er clenched her silver teeth, curled up her body, yidiǎnyidiǎn, and moved Ziji's hands that were locked behind her back from under her hips to the front of her body, and then, her left leg bent and passed at an incredible angle through the circle formed by her hands and the iron cable, followed by her right leg, and finally, she moved Ziji's hands that were locked behind her back to the front of her.

The beautiful eyes glanced at the direction of the iron gate, Jin Ling'er moved to the edge of the wall, pressed the dislocated right arm against the wall, and then lowered her head, the silver teeth bit the clothes on her shoulder, and pulled it violently, only to hear a click, and the dislocated part of her right arm suddenly returned to its original state.

The sharp pain at that moment made her secretly gasp for air, and the sweat on her forehead was like pulp.

Glancing at the direction of the iron gate with a slightly nervous look, Jin Ling'er took a deep breath, her trembling right hand clenched her left hand, and then she pulled it upwards violently, only to hear a click, and the dislocated arm was restored to its original state.

After doing all this, Jin Ling'er's back clothes were soaked with sweat stimulated by the intense pain.

This kind of trick wants to trap the old lady? Fools!

With a sneer in her heart, Jin Ling'er took a few deep breaths, so as to calm her spasmodic arms, and then. She raised her hands, tilted her head, reached out and messed up Ziji's hair, pulled a thin wire out of her hair, and held it in her right hand, one end of which was digging deep into the lock of the iron cable in both hands.

It's just two or three breaths. Hearing a soft click, the iron lock that trapped her hands had been opened, and with a movement of her hands, she opened the lock on the leg shackles again, and the whole guog was easy.

Without the knowledge of the twenty guards outside the secret room, Jin Ling'er carefully placed the two iron cables on the grass, massaging the dull pain in her arms, and slowly stood up.

I have to say. Jin Ling'er is worthy of being the [Ghost Queen] in the [Four Princesses], worthy of being the head of the assassins in Jinling Dangerous Tower, and worthy of being one of the top assassins in the world, even if her hands and feet are locked by iron cables, she can still easily get out of trouble, although Guog has brought her unusually huge pain.

Standing against the wall for a while, Jin Ling'er slowly walked towards the table in the center of the room, watching her stagger. Needless to say, right now. Very weak.

It's no wonder that Bijing Jin Ling'er has not eaten with water for nearly five or six days, and it is not easy to live, so what else is there to talk about.

It's not that the fifth prince Li Cheng is so stingy and vicious, and he doesn't even ask anyone to prepare food for Jin Ling'er, the problem is. Li Chengsheng, who knew Jin Ling'er's ability, was afraid that this woman would find a chance to get out, so he locked her hands behind her back with iron cables.

In this way, it was naturally difficult for Jin Ling'er to eat, but she didn't want a man other than Xie An to feed her. Therefore, in these five or six days, she almost did not eat a grain of rice, did not drink a glass of water, always looking for a chance to get out, but unfortunately, those guards guarded her very strictly a few days ago, so that she méiyou had the slightest chance, therefore, she sat quietly on the grass pile in the corner, trying her best to reduce unnecessary physical exertion, waiting for the best time to get out of the predicament, what perseverance!

Quietly walked to the table, glanced at the wooden plate full of dishes and rice on the table, she was so hungry in her stomach that she didn't even have time to use chopsticks to devour all the food, and then picked up the jug on the table and poured it greedily a few times, and then, she let out a long breath.

When she raised her head again, she was no longer a dying prisoner, and the inexplicable chill in her eyes as she looked in the direction of the iron gate was like a snake awakened from hibernation, spitting snake letters at her prey.

However, the guards outside the secret room didn't know that the extremely dangerous woman in the secret room was out of trouble now, and after about a stick of incense before the door was opened, they only heard a click, and the iron lock of the iron door was opened again, and a guard carried an oil lamp to look at the corner of the secret room.

Just by glancing at it, the guard's initial disbelief in his eyes suddenly turned into inexplicable shock, because he saw that on the grass pile in the corner of the secret room, there were actually two pairs of iron cables.

That woman actually broke free from the iron rope?

Just when the guard was shocked, suddenly there was a faint female voice on the wall on his left.

"Are you looking for the old lady?"

The guard subconsciously turned his head away, and looked at Jin Ling'er with his arms folded against the wall, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Golden ...... Jin Ling'er ...... "Before the guard could call for help, Jin Ling'er did something with both hands, and almost in the blink of an eye, he removed the joints of his arms, and the guard collapsed to the ground in pain, howling in pain.

At this time, the rest of the guards in the secret room below also heard the cries for help from their companions.

"What's going on?"

"What's wrong?"

Just when they were extremely stunned, Jin Ling'er slowly walked out of the secret room, and looked faintly at the nearly twenty guards holding swords in the corridor outside the secret room.

Seeing that Jin Ling'er, who was still chained by iron cables and unable to move his limbs before, came out of the predicament, one can imagine how shocked the nearly twenty guards were, and the leader was even more shocked and said, "You...... How did you get out? ”

"Of course it'......" Jin Ling'er raised a somewhat inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth, and said lightly, "Walked out of the door in a dignified manner...... You don't really think that kind of means can trap the old lady, right? ”

"......" The guards looked at each other, and after being silent for a while, one of them suddenly gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Brothers, if you get away with this person, Your Highness will definitely not spare me and others...... There are nineteen of us, and this woman is just one person......"

I don't know if his words boosted the morale of the rest of the guards, causing them to draw their blades one after another and block the corridor, blocking Jin Ling'er's only way out at the moment.

"Nineteen people...... Jin Ling'er smiled faintly, then her eyes were cold, and she leaned over and rushed into the crowd, her body was like a fluttering butterfly, shuttling among the nineteen swords, during which whenever her hand grabbed the shoulders of those guards, but when she heard a scream, the arms of those guards were suddenly unjointed, and she collapsed to the ground in pain, rolling back and forth.

It is unimaginable that nineteen strong guards were so powerless in front of a woman, and they were put down by Jin Ling'er in a face-to-face effort, and even Jin Ling'er had the leisure to touch a bunch of keys from the waist of one of the guards.

A few steps to the iron door at the end of the corridor, Jin Ling'er took the set of keys in her hand, glanced back at the direction of the corridor, and saw that the nineteen guards had all been unloaded by her, and fell into the corridor screaming in pain.

"Remember, bunnies, the people of the world can hold the old lady unless...... It's the old lady who didn't plan to leave! ”

Glancing coldly at the guards, Jin Ling'er used the key in her hand to open the entrance and exit of the underground secret room, and disappeared at the other end of the entrance and exit of the secret room.
