Han Shui Fengyun 3 Section 11
Verse 11 The clouds dispersed, and the moon emerged from the middle. This day is so strange, the first half of the night is still stormy, but in the second half of the night it can be called a bright moon and wind.
Moonlight streamed in through the tower window, leaving a faint white patch on the ground. There was still a faint smell of blood in the air. Tian Hong shouted above for a while. Seeing that no one answered below, he suddenly felt bored, pursed his lips, glanced at everyone, and then shrank back. Steward Hu was annoyed and angry, and nodded several times in a row: "You rush up with me." ”
Dai Yu wanted to be silent, but now he had to speak. He grabbed the thunderous Steward Hu and said, "Old Hu, Tian Da ...... just now Although Tian Hong's words are a little vulgar, they do make some sense, and now he is recklessly rushing upward, which is undoubtedly the same as sending him to death. ”
He said this a little explicitly, Steward Hu has followed Zhu Huai for so many years, and he hates others the most for saying that he has no goods in his stomach. Suddenly a little displeased, he squinted at him and said, "So, General Dai has a good idea to teach me?" ”
Dai Yu was a little frightened, and bowed and said, "Old Hu, the kid doesn't dare." ”
Steward Hu is a real white man according to his identity. However, all Jiangnan officials know that this old man who looks a little old and confused is wearing the same pants as Zhu Huai. The influence on him is very clear, and he is also aware of his position of strength. Steward Hu looked at his humble appearance, and his face was slightly pale: "General Dai, don't be polite, this woman assassinated Niangniang, and I was ordered by the governor to come and arrest her." It would have been expected that she would find this kid Wu Ming. Getting to this situation is extremely tricky. If you have a good idea, you might as well say it. ”
Dai Yu thought for a while and said, "Old Hu, now that we can't rush hard, we might as well trap them on the seventh floor." When they are exhausted, they will do what they think. ”
This method should be the safest, and the butler shook his head and said, "The northern army is about to go south, trapping the commander of the guard battalion in the Ten Thousand Saints Tower, there are too many variables in it. So we must do our best to solve this matter. And the Governor repeatedly demanded that the matter not be postponed until dawn. Speaking of this, he suddenly realized that it was a word, and immediately stopped.
Dai Yu said secretly: It is rumored that this Hu steward can only fight and kill, and has no intention, I am afraid that there is a lot of water in it. Although he thought so in his heart, his face was still respectful: "Then I have to find a way to go up from the outside." ”
These words were like opening a window, Steward Hu's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Exactly, why didn't I think of it." General Dai, no wonder the master handed over more than 20,000 elite sailors to you, and he really has some ability. He patted Dai Yu, then lined up and walked to the tower window and pushed it open.
Although the Tower of All Saints looked like a giant sword piercing the dome from afar. But the design of the whole tower is very exquisite. Waist eaves, flat seats, railings, corner cornices and other building components are a lot. Steward Hu "snapped" and pushed open the wooden window that had not been opened for a long time. With a light body, people are like a light smoke, and they have stepped on a corner of the eaves outside the tower.
The rain stopped, and although the moon was exposed, only half of its face hung on the dark clouds. So the light is not very bright, and when you look down from the top of the tower, the whole Hanshui City is also hazy. The torches under the tower gathered more and more, dotted with stars, and I don't know how many soldiers were alarmed and surrounded them. Elsewhere there was a dead silence. Steward Hu smiled bitterly in his heart, the old man asked him to solve the matter "cleanly", but he didn't expect to make such a big battle, and he didn't know what he would be blamed for when he went back.
Dai Yu poked his head out of the window and whispered, "Old Hu, do you want me to go up and help you?" ”
Steward Hu waved his hand, hung the long knife in his hand back to his waist, took a deep breath, and said, "You just have to guard down below to prevent them from rushing down again." ”
Dai Yu wanted to remind him to be careful or something, but the words were still in his mouth, and he saw that his feet were flying a little on the cornice, and the person jumped up lightly, and his hands had already wrapped around a corner on the seventh floor, and then with a slight force, the person seemed to have no weight, and had floated up to the seventh floor.
Each floor of the Tower of All Saints is very slender. From the cornices on the sixth floor to the corners on the seventh floor, how can there be a height of six or seven meters. Steward Hu jumped up, and when he turned over to the seventh floor, he was also a little proud, it seemed that he was not old. Before the thought fell, I heard Wu Ming shouting: "Old Hu is really a good skill." Although he said flattering words on his mouth, he was not polite at all, and shaking his hand was a sword stabbing down on the head.
He was shocked, and his left hand took advantage of the momentum to put a little on a guardrail on the seventh floor, and the person floated two feet to the side. Chixiao was like a dragon with a long rainbow, almost sticking to his body and stabbing on the eaves of his waist, and suddenly stone chips flew and sparks flew everywhere. Although the man was not injured, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Steward Hu flashed this fatal sword, and the person had already stepped on another cornice on the seventh floor. He reached for his waist and pulled out his long knife with a "choking" sound. Wrong feet, a little on the fence. Several people flashed around the narrow fence on the seventh floor with a light smoke. In his heart, he wondered, Wu Ming was gone, and the fatal sword just now seemed to have never appeared.
At the moment of being strange, he saw Wu Ming poking his head out from the top of the tower, and said with a smile: "Old Hu, don't look for it, the kid is on it." "It turns out that although the Tower of All Saints has seven floors, there is also a tower top on the seventh floor. He was so anxious just now that he ignored this. Seeing Wu Ming's smile, he said angrily: "Boy Wu Ming, give that child to me quickly, so that everyone can see each other in the future." Why should you meddle? ”
Although he said fiercely, he was still secretly grateful in his heart, and he was jumping around below just now. Wu Ming really wanted to sneak attack himself, but it was extremely easy. So when it came to the end, I couldn't help but persuade again.
Wu Ming suddenly sighed and said: "Old Hu, the ancients had a saying, 'The big man should do something and not do something'. The boy was entrusted by His Royal Highness on his deathbed, but there were some things that he had to do. As he spoke, he grabbed a cornice on the top floor without saying hello, and then rolled over and slowly climbed down from it. His movements were slow and slow, and in the twilight, he was swollen like a shrimp. Steward Hu looked at it fixedly, but he almost laughed out loud. This kid is really a living treasure, probably afraid that others will not protect him well, so he wrapped the child tightly and carried it on his back.
Watching him carefully climb down from the top of the tower, he almost wanted to cut it over. But after thinking about it, I held back. This knife is cut down, although the child's problem is solved, I am afraid that all the three generations of the Zhu family will find trouble for themselves.
Wu Ming slowly climbed down from it, clapped his hands neatly and said, "Old Hu, now that I and this child are tied together, you can watch it." ”
It's come to this point, and this kid is still stubborn. The butler was also a little angry, and he didn't bother to say anything. He slapped his hand on the waist and shouted angrily. The man rushed like thunder and lightning, and pounced on him with a long knife.
After the rain, it was sunny and it was night. Although the wind hunts, the dampness of the tower is still heavy. People stepped on it, slippery. Wu Ming saw that the other party rushed over. I had to jump on the railing and dodge the opponent's pounce sideways. Grasp the edges and corners of the tower window with his right hand, and swing his body. Protecting the child behind him, his backhand was a sword stabbing at the inexhaustible Steward Hu.
These are only a few moments in the past. Steward Hu was furious in his heart, and saw Wu Ming stabbing with a sword. A little tower under his feet is about to take advantage of the momentum to dodge. That knew that this time was impartial, and it was on a piece of moss on the tower. As soon as his feet slipped, his body stumbled, and he was about to fall down.
The night breeze was slightly cool, blowing on the tower window, making a hollow "whining" sound. Looking down from above, the torches were a little indistinct, and even the shouts of people were a little erratic. Steward Hu looked at the noisy below, and secretly said in his heart, "My life is over." Now that his balance has been lost, as long as Wu Ming rushes up to make up for the sword again, he will definitely fall and fall into a pulp. However, he has followed Zhu Huai for so many years, and his heart has long been as solid as a rock. It is not his character to close his eyes and wait for death, he gritted his teeth at the moment, hooked his feet towards the middle, and suddenly there was a feeling of hooking the real thing under his feet, he was stunned, and then overjoyed. It turned out that in his panic, his feet actually hooked the guardrail, and at this time his whole person almost formed a straight line with the tower.
Before he had time to rejoice, Wu Ming had already rushed up, handed Chixiao to his left hand, and stretched out his right palm negligently, and leaned towards him.
He's going to push me down?
In the midst of the lightning, Steward Hu "was angry from his heart, and evil was born to the side of his guts", and shouted: "Die." I don't know where the power comes from, the long knife is stretched, the backhand is on the tower, the feet are forced, and a body suddenly takes the guardrail as the axis, and the "whew" turns around, and the person has flashed to Wu Ming's side. Towards the baby behind Wu Ming is a knife.
Wu Ming's original intention was to pull Steward Hu, who was in danger, knowing that the other party was so slippery, and now he was still thinking about assassinating the child on his back. By the time he reacted, he had already grabbed Steward Hu's feet, but the other party's knife came roaring, and if he wanted to dodge again, there was still time there. The knife was slashing at his back, and he only felt that his body was light, and the package on his back had been picked in two by the other party and fell in the air.
A few drops of hot blood dripped in Steward Hu's mouth, and he was tiantian, with a slight smell of fish. Is this the royal bloodline? It feels worse than the average person's. But none of this has much to do with me.
He closed his eyes tightly, just waiting for Wu Ming to go crazy and throw himself out of the Ten Thousand Saints Tower. He was shocked, and his left hand had already grabbed a corner of the cornice, and after shaking it a few times, it fell gently, and the person suddenly returned to the guardrail, unharmed.
This attack and defense was only instantaneous, but for him, it seemed like a long time had passed, and his heart couldn't stop beating wildly. Looking up at Wu Ming, he saw that the other party had his back to him, and he just said lightly: "Now, are you satisfied?" He opened his mouth and was about to answer, when he heard a sudden chaos under the tower, and those dense torches were originally more and more, but at this time, like frightened fireflies, they rushed towards the governor's mansion.
There was a ** voice shouting: "Oh no, someone is attacking the Governor's Mansion." ”
