Zhengde suddenly said such words, not only Zhu Houxi, Princess Yongfu and Zhang Rui on the side were shocked, Duan Fei also felt his heart beating fast and his scalp was swollen, no one thought that Zhengde would have such high hopes for Duan Fei!

Duan Feihuo bowed to Zhengde and said loudly: "The minister will live up to the emperor's high expectations, and he will die with all his might!" ”

"Get up, what I want is the living Huo Quai, not the dead Marquis Jinghuan! Tomorrow night's bonfire, I want you to show your might, let everyone know that I love you because you are both civil and military, which is rare in the world! ”

"Obey the order!" Duan Fei replied loudly, he turned over on his horse, and said to Zhengde: "Your Majesty, the minister has gone hunting by order!" ”

"Go ahead!" Zhengde waved his hand, and Duan Fei took a team of brocade guards and left.

"Suddenly......" Jinyi Wei fanned forward and galloped forward, Duan Fei sat in the center, and the small beasts hidden in the grass were driven out, and then everyone opened their bows and arrows to shoot at these prey, Jinyi Wei's archery skills were mostly good, but to their surprise, the archery skills they commanded were more exquisite, not only the arrows were like the wind, but also never fell into the air, Duan Fei's archery skills that had been practiced for a long time finally showed.

I also met a lot of hunting teams along the way, but their momentum was far inferior to Duan Fei and them, and when they saw the smoke and dust from afar, they thought that a team of 10,000 people was coming, and hurriedly avoided the edge, only to find that it was just a small team of Jinyi guards.

Duan Fei got a lot of arrows at the same time, the consumption of arrows was also very large, less than an hour to use up the bow and arrows in his hand, the sun was getting stronger, Duan Fei decided to take a break and then go to Zhengde's team to hunt and invite merit, so he led the team to find a small forest near the lake to rest temporarily, Duan Fei did not sit down to rest, he heard someone shouting: "My lord, three corpses were found in the water and grass by the lake!" ”

Duan Fei frowned, his luck was really good, he could find a corpse wherever he went, what was going on? He walked over to take a look, and saw that there were indeed three corpses sunk there in the water and grass by the lake, and after just looking at their clothes, Duan Fei said categorically: "The two in black are the assassins who escaped this morning, and the other one doesn't know where they came from, let's catch them all." ”

The guards cut down sticks and branches, made simple sticks, and dragged the corpses ashore with their waists, the masked scarves on the faces of the two men in black were gone, and their faces were cut to shreds, and they could no longer distinguish their original faces, and they could only roughly estimate that the older one was about forty years old, and the younger one should be less than twenty years old.

The other deceased was about thirty years old, his face was also disfigured and could not be identified, he was wearing a gray cheap uniform, it seemed that he should be a lowly lazy person guarding Nanhaizi, although the wounds on the three people were different, but they were all sword wounds, it may be the same murderer, among them, the black-clothed middle-aged man who had fought with Duan Fei was hit with three swords in the chest, two of which penetrated the chest, judging from the wound marks, it should have been suddenly attacked head-on, and after being seriously injured by a sword, he was stabbed twice in the heart in a row, followed by the young man, who was pierced through the throat by a sword, I thought it was a sudden change and was stunned, and then was stabbed to death by the murderer with a sword, and the servant also died with a sword through the chest, and the spurting blood stains on his chest showed that he was stabbed to death by someone from behind, and it was very likely that he was killed when he turned around and wanted to escape, and the murderer killed three people in a row in one breath, first difficult and then easy, and the means were quite clever.

The plackets of the three men had been searched and searched, and some parts of the clothes on the handyman's body had been cut off, perhaps with a number on them, and they were taken away.

After a rough investigation of the corpses, Duan Fei ordered: "Rest for half an hour and go on the road, find something to bring them back." ”

Half an hour later, Duan Fei led people to the dust to raise the most, but it was not in the direction of high lifting, more dust means that there are more people there, and the low dust tip means that the people there did not ride horses and gallop, but walked slowly, echoing these two, there are only five thousand forbidden troops of Zhengde nearby.

Sure enough, Duan Fei met Zhengde's men and horses head-on, and Zhengde saw that Duan Fei's saddle was full of prey, and he couldn't help laughing happily: "It seems that Aiqing has gained a lot!" ”

Duan Fei replied: "Thanks to Your Majesty Hongfu, Weichen not only hunted a lot of prey, but also brought back some surprising things by the way. ”

Zhengde sighed and asked, "What is it?" ”

Duan Fei waved his hand, and the Jinyi guard behind him made a gap, and Zhengde suddenly saw the three corpses in the net formed by the branches.

Zhengde frowned, but Zhang Rui shouted: "Bold Duan Fei!" How dare you bring such an unfortunate thing to the emperor! ”

Zhengde shouted: "Shut up, what's all the fuss about a few dead people?" It's not that I haven't seen it, Duan Aiqing, what's going on? ”

Duan Fei replied: "Your Majesty, the minister found them by the lake, and these two black-clad assassins were the escaped assassins, and they were killed and abandoned in the lake along with this miscellaneous servant. ”

Zhengde snorted and said, "It seems that God wants you to investigate this case, and everything will be left to you to deal with, these rebellions can be killed without forgiveness, and you don't have to tell me everything." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Duan Fei waved his hand, and the brocade guard closed again, covering the three corpses.

Zhengde asked: "Aiqing has hunted a lot of prey, how many of them were shot by you personally?" ”

Duan Fei replied: "Your Majesty, as many arrows as there are in the minister's quiver, the minister will shoot as many prey as he wants." ”

Zhengde laughed and said, "Really? ”

Zhang Rui said without yin or yang: "Lord Duan wouldn't have let his entourage tie the prey to the tree and then shoot it, right?" ”

Duan Fei smiled: "It seems that the emperor and Gonggong Zhang both doubt my archery skills, so ......"

Duan Fei took out an arrow from the quiver that had been washed but still had a hint of fishy smell, put it on the bowstring, and began to search around.

Zhengde looked at Duan Fei with a smile, Zhang Rui and Zhu Houxi's eyes were also wandering around, and Princess Yongfu put on a veil, revealing only two crescent-like eyes, staring at Duan Fei's body.

Duan Fei was engrossed in searching for his prey, not noticing the eyes around him, more than 5,000 people, including the emperor, were waiting for him silently, which brought him great pressure, but after Duan Fei entered the realm of selflessness, he left these thoughts behind him and searched quietly.

More than 5,000 people were clubbing here, and the big and small prey had already fled far away, Duan Fei waited for a while and didn't wait for the prey, just when everyone was getting impatient, or gloating like Zhang Rui, there was a sudden bird cry in the sky.

Duan Fei's brain had just received the sound message, his body had already reacted, he twisted his waist violently, his hands opened his bow hard, and with a bang, a powerful arrow had already flown out.

Duan Fei woke up when the arrow had been shot, he looked at the big bird in the sky with his mouth open, and his heart was up and down, he had never shot a bird, and he had never shot an arrow without seeing the target like this.

In addition to him, the more than 5,000 people present also heard the bird call and saw Duan Fei's movements, but before most of them had time to turn their heads to look, the ugly bird call had stopped abruptly, and the bird that was hovering in the air fell down.

Zhengde was the first to applaud and shouted: "Good archery!" ”

The cheers suddenly burst out, and even Princess Yongfu applauded excitedly, and Duan Fei's heart finally fell when he lifted the air.

Zhengde ordered someone to take the bird back, only to see that it was a wild duck, Duan Fei's arrow shot into the duck's beak and came out from the back of the neck, Zhengde couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, and shouted: "It turned out to be the legendary open arrow, Aiqing's archery skills have reached this point, I really didn't see the wrong person!" ”

Duan Fei said modestly: "Your Majesty, Weichen is just a fluke. ”

Zhengde smiled: "You don't have to be modest, it seems that this autumn hunt, you are going to take the lead!" ”

Duan Fei's arrow made people look at him impressively, and no one doubted that he was carrying a big bow on his back to decorate the façade.

Zhengde also hunted a lot of prey in the afternoon, everyone gathered into a team, walked back, met prey on the way, Zhengde asked Duan Fei to shoot, Duan Fei an arrow, unambiguous, so that Zhengde was overjoyed, happier than he shot the prey.

A lot of flags were erected outside the palace, tents were also erected, and a lot of prey was piled up under each banner, but compared to the prey stacked under the banner of the Jinyi Guard, Duan Fei was hanging high, and the legend of his open arrow was also spread by everyone, and it was spread by everyone.

Legend has it that Lord Duan, who was talking to the emperor and shooting arrows at the same time, got busy when he returned to the camp, and he sat in a large tent and ordered the assassin he had caught in the morning to be brought in.

The man was already depressed after being forced by Jin Yiwei, Duan Fei came to him, hooked his face, and said: "Look, the perseverance on his face, he still refuses to open his mouth after suffering a lot, he thinks he is a tough guy, right?" Come on, bring those three corpses in, and let this self-righteous fool see what happened to the traitor! ”

The three bodies found in the lake were carried to the man, and the man's eyes widened in horror when he saw the three bloody faces, and he struggled to step forward to identify them carefully, but was pressed back by the two strong brocade guards.

'Woo......' The man's eyes glared at Duan Fei, almost wanting to breathe fire, Duan Fei sneered: "Don't stare at me, if we kill people, you don't need to cut your face like this, look at this sword, our brocade guards and janissaries don't use swords, even if you are stupid, you should know who killed them, right?" ”

The man was shocked and looked at Duan Fei in disbelief, Duan Fei smiled at him and said, "Do you want to talk now?" Take the contents out of his mouth. ”

After the gag was taken out, the man gasped a few times, still glared at Duan Fei angrily, and said, "You don't have to bother, I won't say anything, you can kill me!" ”

Duan Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, "Say it or not, it's easy for this official to verify your identity, and you fell into my hands, that is, a plaything, which can be used by me to test new torture tools." ”

Duan Fei's indifferent attitude, as well as the look of a civet and mouse, brought great pressure to that person, and a trace of despair flashed in that person's eyes, and he was about to grit his teeth and commit suicide, but how could the brocade guards guarding on both sides let him get his wish? Seeing this, the brocade guard on the left directly stuck the man's chin, and took it off for him with a click, and his jaw was dislocated, see what else are you biting?

"Go, bring out the 'Iron Lady' made by the official especially for him!" Duan Fei said.

"Iron Lady?" The man looked up in horror, a name he had never heard before, and because of this, the fear of the unknown grabbed his heart like a cat's claw.

Duan Fei explained to him with a smile: "The Iron Lady is actually an iron box like a coffin, which is full of iron nails, and the prisoner is stripped naked, and after being locked in, the lid is closed, and the prisoner's whole body will be pierced by nails, but you can rest assured, these nails are all positioned, and they will not accidentally pierce your heart and make you die instantly, they will make you bleed slowly, you can even hear the sound of your own blood dripping on the ground, and sometimes we can also pour things into it from the hole on the top of the Iron Lady, such as mice, Cockroaches, snakes, maggots and stuff like that, they're going to crawl around in there, and you, you can't see any light inside, and we can also make a fire outside, and we can make sure that we don't steam you in advance, but just rats, cockroaches, or something that are so hot that you just want to drill into the hole, you know, there are many places on people that you can get into......"

The man was also a determined man, but when he heard all the horrors of the Iron Lady, he couldn't help but be horrified.

Four brocade guards came in carrying a black thing, and they erected the makeshift 'coffin' according to Duan Fei's instructions, and one of the brocade guards asked Duan Fei: "My lord, the Iron Lady has been properly settled, will you put this death row prisoner in now?" ”

Duan Fei had been observing the man's expression, and had a certain understanding of what he was afraid of, and asked Duan Fei and said, "Take off his clothes and lock him in the Iron Lady, and then you guys will go to catch mice and cockroaches for me, and give this tough guy who refuses to speak a good time!" ”

"Woo woo woo ......" The man showed an extremely frightened look on his face, he whined and shook his head at the same time, Duan Fei said to him with a smile: "What? Did Ken speak? Ken nodded, and continued to shake his head. ”

The man nodded hurriedly, Duan Fei laughed, and said: "It's really very well-behaved, just like the puppy I raised in the past, it has always been very well-behaved, but unfortunately once I told it to lie on his stomach honestly but didn't listen, do you know what happened to it in the end?" It slowly burned me off the hair with a fire, inserted it straight into the back with a fork, poked it out from the front, and roasted it on the fire to eat, I haven't eaten human flesh yet, I don't know if it's good or not...... Shake your ass and let me see if you're really good or fake, okay? ”

Seeing Duan Fei's salivating expression, where did that person dare to be tough, he hurriedly twisted his ass vigorously and threw himself on the ground like a puppy being coquettish.

Duan Fei laughed again, touched his head, pulled out the strip of cloth in his mouth, and said, "What a good puppy, tell me, what is the name of the puppy?" Where did it come from? Why did you assassinate the emperor? And what accomplices? If the puppy is well-behaved, I'll spare him from dying, otherwise...... Not only will you die a long and painful death, but you will also stink, and the whole world knows that this puppy drowned in a manure pit, and I can do it! ”

The man's anger had already been exhausted, and he was threatened with cannibalism, so he shuddered, so he had to honestly confess: "My lord, the villain's name is Qiu Yi......"

Qiu Yi's explanation of the situation was similar to Duan Fei's guess, these people were indeed the remnants of the four outer armies, they were the cronies of Anbian Bo Xu Tai, because they had left the army and did not burn the jade with Xu Tai, and assassinated Zhengde, in order to avenge Xu Tai.

"Revenge for Xu Tai? He was neither killed by the enemy, nor did he die in battle, he was the emperor's courtier, and the emperor killed him, which revenge do you have? And who arranged the assassination plan for you? Who killed those two people? ”

Qiu Yi glanced up at Duan Fei in surprise, and was scolded by Jinyi Wei and hurriedly crawled down again, he replied: "My lord even knows this, we were actually instigated by someone, ten days ago, a masked man found us, said a big call, Brother Li was moved, we have been waiting for the opportunity, until the day before yesterday the person came over again, saying that the emperor was coming to Qiu Hunt today, he arranged for the manpower to respond, we came in last night, I didn't expect him to suddenly turn his face and kill Brother Li's father and son......"

Duan Fei sneered: "It's inevitable to kill people and kill people, there is nothing surprising, what is the origin of the man in black?" ”

Qiu Yi smiled bitterly: "I don't know, the eldest brother came into contact with him alone, that person came and went with his head covered and his face covered, and his martial arts were very high, we tried to track him, but he was easily thrown off, but the second brother said that he had a demonic aura on his body, and it may be the demon path of Maitreya." ”

"Maitreya?" Duan Fei frowned, Maitreya Sect is actually one of the branches of the Demon Sect, the relationship with the Demon Sect is unclear, it is difficult to distinguish, the Maitreya Sect has developed very quickly over the years, and in terms of strength, I am afraid that it is not worse than the Demon Sect, especially in terms of mobilizing the masses to rebel, the Demon Sect will be dumbfounded, and convincing people to defy the imperial power and create chaos is the specialty of the Maitreya Sect.

Duan Fei turned around the tent twice with his hands behind his back, thought about it carefully, and suddenly turned to Qiu Yi and said: "Qiu Yi, since you have told the truth, this official can spare you from dying, so let's do it, I will send someone to send you away immediately, you go back and warn the remaining brothers of you, you must no longer believe in the lies of the cult, if you can capture the Maitreya Sect demon alive and sacrifice it to the official, the official can also ask the emperor for merit for you, what do you think?" ”

Qiu Yi's eyes widened and he looked at Duan Fei in disbelief, Duan Fei said with certainty: "You have already told everything, this official doesn't need to lie to you, maybe the person who killed your boss Li at this moment is on the way to kill people and kill people, if you are slow, maybe your remaining old and weak women and children will be killed." ”

Qiu Yi gritted his teeth and said: "I believe in the adult, please give me a horse, I will rush back, if I can not die, I will not forget the grace of the adult's life!" ”
