In the dark night, I can't see my fingers. Mo Chu took Zhen Cheng and hurriedly drove towards the city gate.

When they approached the East City Gate, they saw people and horses scurrying around, and it was very lively. The east gate is the main gate of Huiji City, although people come and go during the day, but at night, there are few people in and out. At this moment, countless torches were lit on the city walls, illuminating the dark night into day.

When Mo Chu saw this, he knew that it was difficult for him to get out of the city. At this moment, Zhen Cheng's face turned pale, and his consciousness was a little confused.

Mo Chu helped Zhen Cheng sit down, and then quickly made a move, and before Zhen Cheng could react, he had already pulled out the soul elimination nail on his body. Zhen Cheng felt a heart-rending pain, and spit out a mouthful of black blood in his mouth.

The poison on the soul elimination nail is very powerful, if it is not treated in time, Zhen Cheng's life will not be saved. But now that the situation is urgent, Mo Chu can't care so much, he tore off Zhen Cheng's clothes and began to use his mouth to help suck out the poison on his body.

The pain from the extraction of the soul elimination nail had made Zhen Cheng a little sober. He hurriedly stopped Mo Chu.

"Little junior brother, stop it, I can't do it, you go first, otherwise we will all die in Huiji City." ”

"Second Senior Brother, what do you say, we are brothers, how can I leave my brother alone. ”

Zhen Cheng held Mo Chu's hand tightly, "Good brother, I understand what you mean, I am already a dying person, you don't have to put your life on the line for me, if even you die, who will avenge me." ”

"Don't say it, with me, you won't die!" Mo Chu quickly shot out and clicked on the acupoints on Zhen Cheng's body. Then he started taking drugs.

Zhen Cheng bit his lip, his eyes were full of tears. After Mo Chu sucked the poison on Zhen Cheng's body, a sword cut his finger and dripped blood into Zhen Cheng's mouth little by little.

It didn't take long for Zhen Cheng's pale face to have a trace of blood, and Mo Chu stopped. He unlocked the acupuncture points on Zhen Cheng's body. The tears on Zhen Cheng's face never dried.

Mo Chu lost too much blood and began to feel a little dizzy. Zhen Cheng was in severe pain and got up to help Mo Chu sit down.

"Little junior brother, thank you for your great kindness!"

Mo Chu's lips turned white and he waved his hand gently.

"Brothers, what a word of thanks. If you weren't trying to save me, how could you be poisoned?"

He asked slowly, "Why did you come to Huiji City?"

"Isn't the princess worried about you, let me secretly follow you and protect you secretly. ”

Mo Chu is full of warmth, and he can be worried about by his friends at any time, who will be unhappy.

"Zhang Li has been hunting us down, and now we can't get out of any gate. You are wounded now, and it will be difficult for us to jump out of the walls. ”

Zhen Cheng took over the conversation and asked, "Then what should we do?"

"Find a place to recuperate, and when you're better, we'll go out of the walls." ”

"Now the whole city is hunting us, where will there be a place to hide. ”

"The most dangerous place is often the safest place!"

"Do you want to go back to the General's Mansion again? ”

"The General's Mansion is full of Zhang Li's people, we can't hide, let's go to the palace. ”

"Isn't the palace confinement more severe?"

"The current Yue Kingdom Zhang Li is in power, and the King of Yue is in vain. ”

"Even if King Yue has lost power, the palace is a palace after all, and its defense will not be worse than the Great General's Mansion. ”

"I understand what you said, King Yue and Zhang Li at this time are no longer of the same mind. ”

"Little junior brother, you are confused. It doesn't matter if they have one heart or not, but you will always be their mortal enemy, and each of them hates you and wants you to die!"

"Second Senior Brother is right, but it is difficult for us to find a place to take refuge in this way, and besides, you are still injured, so you must find a suitable place to recuperate. ”

"Then we can find a farmhouse to live in. ”

"I killed tens of thousands of Vietnamese soldiers before, and the Yue people hated me to the core, and tomorrow morning, Zhang Li will definitely make a big announcement that the enemy of the Yue country is in the city, and everyone wants to kill me at that time to avenge their relatives. ”

"So, we're not dead. You'd better go first, and leave me alone. If you can walk one by one, count one. ”

"Second Senior Brother, as I said, I will not leave my brother alone. I've always wanted to meet King Yue, and today is the best time. ”

"Do you want to die and live?"

"I wasn't completely sure, I just wanted to take a gamble. ”

"Okay, our brother will go to visit the king of Xiayue. ”

The palace of the king of Yue adheres to the simple style of the ancestor Goujian, and covers an area of more than 2,000 acres, which is only a little larger than the general's mansion. The palace sits in the south and faces north, and all the buildings are red walls and green tiles, high and low, and the walls are towering like clouds, and the momentum is magnificent.

Outside the wall, there is a sentry in five steps and a post in ten steps, and the defense is very strong. Of course, this kind of defense is effective against ordinary people, what kind of person is Mo Chu, he took Zhen Cheng with him, and he passed a door in a few leaps.

Mo Chu continued to move forward, and after passing the second gate, he arrived at the Xuanzheng Hall where the King of Yue and the ministers were discussing. The defense of the second door is simpler and looser than that of the first door.

At this moment, it has entered the second half of the night, and King Yue has already rested. He should be in the dormitory by now. Generally speaking, the Emperor's dormitory is the strongest place in the entire palace system. Because the dormitory is the most private and hidden place for people. It is only in that kind of place that people's guards will be completely relaxed.

When you completely let your guard down, it is often the most dangerous moment, so the dormitory is often in the most secluded part of the palace, and the defense is also the strongest.

Mo Chu had already arrived at the dormitory, he cautiously looked around, strangely, there were not many Praetorian Guards here, only a few people were dozing off.

It seems that the king of Yue has completely lost power, and even his own Praetorian Guard exists in name only. This Zhang Li is really ruthless. His general's mansion covers an area of 1,000 acres, with more than 3,000 guards, and countless martial arts masters to guard it.

And in the grand palace, the guards did not exceed three thousand, and they were all concentrated in one gate, these people did not look like protecting the emperor, but like they were under house arrest. Thinking of the two dragons at the gate of the General's Mansion, Mo Chu completely understood that the Great General Zhang Li had long been Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knew it. The current King of Yue and the Imperial Palace are just decorations.

Mo Chu got up and jumped into the dormitory, and there was a room in the southwest corner where the lights were still on. Mo Chu turned over and went to the window.

There was a man and a woman in the room, who looked to be in their early forties. Judging by their form and clothing, they are by no means ordinary people.

"Your Majesty, it is late at night, so rest now!" persuaded the graceful and noble woman.

The dignified man put down the book in his hand and sighed deeply.

"There may have been another accident in Huiji City, and now the whole city is confined and searching from house to house. ”

"Who are they looking for?"

"I don't know, but what is certain is that this person's identity must be very unusual. ”

"Your Majesty, since they don't let you take care of it, you can rest in peace, why don't you care about the affairs of the court, and we will also live the life of ordinary people. ”

"But I can't watch the inheritance of generations of previous kings fall into the hands of this king. ”

"But what else can we do now?"

King Yue could only sigh, "It's all because this king has eyes and no beads, and he raises tigers." ”

"The king doesn't have to blame himself, some things have been destined by heaven, and we can only follow the trend. ”

"The princess said well, people should follow the trend. ”

"Who dares to break into the king's bedroom at night. King Yue said sharply.

"It's me, Mo Chu!"

"You are Mo Chu, the leader of the Xinke Martial Arts Alliance, the current general of the Chu State?" asked King Yue.

"That's right, there's only one Mo Chu. ”

"You are so bold, you are not afraid that this king will kill you!" King Yue roared.

"If I'm afraid, I won't come!"

"What is your purpose here?"

"I want to ask King Yue to give me a place to hide. ”

King Yue laughed, "Mo Chu, are you crazy? You just killed tens of thousands of troops of my Yue Kingdom, causing me, the king, to exist in name only, and you in turn let this king save you? Ridiculous, really ridiculous!"

Mo Chu was unmoved, and looked at him coldly. "This time, that time. ”

"At any time, this king will long to pick your skin and eat your flesh. ”

Mo Chu smiled faintly, "Even if you kill me, it won't solve any problems." ”

King Yue was stunned.

"The reason why the Yue Kingdom failed was because of the long-term recklessness of military force, perennial warfare, and the people were struggling to make a living. I asked Ouyang Xue to persuade you not to attack Chu, but you didn't listen. In order to realize your selfish desires, you took the risk of using Zhang Li, but he deprived him of his military power, and now he is under house arrest. Isn't it your own fault for all this? ”

"I'll kill you!" King Yue was furious. He turned and drew his sword from the wall, straight at Mo Chu.

The princess hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed King Yue's hand tightly.

"Calm your wrath, Your Majesty. Although Mo Chu was disobedient to Tianwei, what he said was the truth. ”

"Why, you are also towards him!" King Yue was furious.

"Your Majesty, I am your princess, how can I be towards him. Even if you kill Mo Chu, what problem can you solve?"

King Yue gradually calmed down.

"Even if this king doesn't kill you, don't think about me saving you!"

"King Yue is not saving me, but saving yourself. ”

King Yue laughed, "You really don't know how thick the sky is. ”

"With the current situation of King Yue, can he really defeat Zhang Li and regain the imperial power?"

King Yue was silent.

"And I have an army of 100,000 in my hands, and I can completely defeat Zhang Li. ”

The princess is a smart man. "Your Majesty, General Mo is our friend of Xue'er, he has saved Xue'er many times, and now that he is in trouble, we should also help him. ”

King Yue thought about it repeatedly, and finally agreed with the princess's opinion, and let Mo Chu and Zhen Cheng stay to recuperate.
