Chapter 1569: The Dark Shadow Outside the House

More than 100 people hibernated in the mountains and forests, clutching the blades in their hands one by one, holding their breath, quietly listening to the movements around them.

The surroundings were surprisingly quiet, and there was not even half a sound of insects chirping.

Both the palace guards and the teenagers who entered the mountains and forests with them knew very well that such a quiet environment was an anomaly in itself.

Dormant in the woods, more than 100 people did not move, all waiting for the impending crisis to come.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, the attack that was supposed to come still did not happen, and the hearts of the more than 100 people who were waiting quietly had some doubts in their hearts.

If the dormant did try to attack them, it would not have been possible to wait so long, and they had already launched an attack before they had stopped.

The other party does not want to attack them!

Almost every palace guard was puzzled, the other party did not attack, but made them feel a little uneasy in their hearts.

The people who were dormant in the forest did not get up, they listened quietly to the movement around them.

It was still quiet, and there was no sign of anyone about to kill.

The two teenagers crouched at the front were good at hunting wild beasts, but they were obviously inexperienced in the face of the enemy.

Waiting a little anxiously, one of the teenagers beckoned, and the cat was about to walk forward.

As soon as he moved, a hand grabbed the crook of his arm.

The crook of the arm was grabbed, and the boy looked back to see who was dragging him, but since it was night, he couldn't see anything.

No one spoke, and the man who grabbed him felt that he didn't continue to move, and let his hand go.

The forest was so dark that they could barely see their fingers, and the guards and boys waited for the other party to attack first, and the other party seemed to be draining their stamina, and there was no sign of attacking at all.

Knowing that the opponent was nearby, the two sides had no intention of making a move.

It is too dark nearby, and even mountain people who walk in the mountains and forests all year round are likely to fall down the mountain or alarm some highly venomous snakes and insects when fighting people in this environment.

The view in the forest is getting worse and worse, and the people crouching in the mountains and forests are not able to see clearly because they are used to the darkness, but as the night gets deeper and deeper, the scene in front of them becomes more and more difficult to discern.

The forests in the mountains are very dense, and although Liu Wei and Wang Zhen lived in the place where Liu Wei and Wang Zhen lived, although a lot of trees had been cut down, there were still some left.

In the area where they are, in their own eyes, it is like two lice resting on top of the Mediterranean, completely unobtrusive in the field of vision.

The night was already dark, and Liu Wei was still standing at the window looking out.

Wang Zhen stood behind him, Liu Wei didn't sleep, and as a general with him, it was impossible for her to rest.

In fact, Wang Zhen was already very sleepy, but Liu Wei didn't seem to be sleepy at all, and she didn't dare to say it lightly.

"You must be sleepy!" Looking at the night scene outside the window, Liu Wei said to Wang Zhen: "There are still many things to do tomorrow. ”

"The guards know that His Majesty is here, and they must have already gone up the mountain at this time." didn't go to sleep, Wang Zhen whispered to Liu Wei: "Your Majesty is in the mountains, I'm afraid I won't be able to live for more than ten days!" ”

Nodding his head, Liu Wei still didn't look back, but just said to Wang Zhen: "The two of us only have tonight, after tonight, if we can't find the slightest clue, even if the guards go up the mountain and twist this group of strongmen, there is not much reason to kill them. ”

Wang Zhen didn't say anything, she understood Liu Wei's intention to stay here, this emperor just wanted to find out the deep purpose of those people who were abducted and deceived in the name of Daojun.

If you don't find the fundamental purpose, just use the charges in front of you to capture them and kill them all, which will really make Liu Wei bear the charge of a tyrant.

In Wang Zhen's view, although he is very generous to the people and the army, when dealing with those who intend to subvert the court or hurt the people, he will become a tyrant and kill those people!

In Wang Zhen's opinion, Liu Wei is a very complicated person!

Not only does he often express a different way of thinking, but even when he does things, he often goes to extremes.

The Han under Liu Wei's rule was not completely relaxed, and anyone could act at will.

Many actions that touched Liu Bian's bottom line may not constitute a capital crime in other heroes, but under Liu Bian's rule, they will be executed immediately!

It was the high-pressure measures he took that made almost every house in the Han Dynasty stay closed at night and the roads were not left behind, except for the adjacent boundaries with other areas under the jurisdiction of the heroes.

The soldiers and horses in charge of public security in the Han Dynasty have almost nothing to do except practice on weekdays.

Wang Zhen just didn't expect that under such a high-pressure policy, there would be a group of people in the mountains near Luoyang, who swaggered and deceived under the guise of the Heavenly Monarch, and even killed people's lives.

"Although the world is safe, there are also some people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic!" Looking out of the dark window, Liu Wei said lightly: "Since they have the heart of chaos, I will punish them!" ”

When Liu Wei said the word "Zhu Xin", Wang Zhen, who was standing behind him, was stunned for a moment.

Liu Wei was about to speak, but Wang Zhen suddenly pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword and raised his face to look at the roof.

While Wang Zhen made this move, Liu Wei also raised his face to look at the roof.

There was a rustling sound from the not very thick roof.

Although the sound is not loud, it is unusually clear, and there are people on the roof!

Wang Zhen's hand rested on the hilt of her sword, and when she looked at the roof, her eyes flashed with alarm.

Liu Wei was not as nervous as her, but his face was indifferent.

With the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, Liu Wei turned his head to look out the window again.

It was dark outside the window, and only a few swaying figures could be faintly seen approaching the hut.

Wang Zhen, who also found those figures, slowly pulled the long sword out of its scabbard, and put on a posture of planning to fight at any time.

Gesturing to Wang Zhen, Liu Wei signaled her not to rush to provoke the other party.

It was very dark in the room, and Wang Zhen could only vaguely see Liu Wei raise his hand.

She didn't put the sword back into its scabbard, but carried it and looked out of the window with alarm.

Several figures outside the window had already approached the adjacent room, and Liu Wei and Wang Zhen saw one of them walking towards the door.

When the man walked to the door, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Liu Wei's mouth.

With an unpleasant creak from the door, a small gap was gently pushed open from the outside.

Liu Wei and Wang Zhen, who were standing in the room, watched a little red fire light light up.

The light of the fire was only the thickness of a thumb, like someone standing in the doorway at night and smoking a cigarette through the crack in the door.

Seeing this scene, Liu Wei gestured to Wang Zhen.

In the dark, vaguely seeing Liu Wei's gesture, Wang Zhen jumped to the door and pulled the door open, and the person outside the door didn't understand what was coming, and there was a bright long sword around his neck.

Apparently he didn't expect someone to suddenly come out of the house, and the man was stunned for a moment, and the thing he was holding in his hand fell to the ground.

Liu Wei, who walked out of the door behind Wang Zhen, bent down and picked up something that was still burning on the ground.

After taking a closer look at the matter, Liu Wei beckoned to a few people who were stunned by Wang Zhen's sudden appearance not far away.

Seeing Liu Wei beckoning, those people were stunned for a moment, and did not step forward immediately.

"Here's one." They didn't move, and Liu Wei opened his mouth to say hello.

The leader was held by Wang Zhen with a long sword around his neck, and the other few people did not dare to make a move lightly, Liu Wei beckoned them to step forward, and one of them walked up hard.

When he was about to walk up to Liu Wei, the man seemed to feel that something was wrong, looked down at the long sword he was holding in his hand, and threw the long sword on the ground.

Seeing that he took the initiative to drop the long sword, a satisfied smile appeared on Liu Bian's face.

He beckoned to the man again, and when the man came to him, Liu Wei leaned over the object he was holding under his nose.

The thing was still flickering with bright red fire, and when the thing Liu Wei was holding came up, the man subconsciously dodged backwards.

But as soon as he took a step back, his eyes rolled and he sat down limply.

Looking down at the man who fell to the ground, Liu Wei threw the object in his hand to the ground, and ordered Wang Zhen: "Ask him, what is this?" ”

Wang Zhen didn't say anything, and the long sword on the neck of the man he held hostage tightened inward again.

The sharp blade had already been attached to the man's neck, and the skin of the neck had also been cut through a small hole, and some blood had oozed out of the cut and stained the blade.

"What's that?" Tightening the neck of the kidnapped man, Wang Zhen asked coldly.

"Yes...... It's a mountain herb ......" Perhaps worried that the long sword would cut his throat, the man answered honestly.

Wang Zhen held the leading man hostage, and Liu Wei also used the thing that almost stunned the two of them to knock down one of the people who came up, and confronted the others.

A little distance there was the sound of footsteps.

The footsteps seemed to be in a hurry, and from the slightly messy footsteps, Liu Wei and Wang Zhen could hear that there were at least six or seven people coming.

The other party increased the number of people again, and Wang Zhen's hand holding the long sword added some strength, and he was ready to kill the kidnapped man, and then fight with others.

Unlike Wang Zhen, Liu Wei not only did not draw out the long sword, but his hand was not even pressed on the hilt, but he just held his hands on his shoulders, waiting for the few people who were about to appear to come closer.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and all Liu Wei and Wang Zhen saw at first were a few black shadows hurrying over.

Several dark shadows were getting closer and closer to them, and when they reached a place where they were only a little more than ten paces away, they lit torches.

The torches lit up, and the first thing Liu Wei and Wang Zhen saw was the face of the sixth child who had visited them during the day.

Lighting the torch, the sixth man immediately walked over to the two with Xiaoxiao, and said as he walked: "Two immortal monarchs, what's the matter?" ”
