Chapter 9 Hidden Merit and Fame
The trees rustle and the footsteps are clustered.
A pair of giant axes slashed down, and Dianqing's bronzed skin was like a statue full of texture, and its huge body glittered in the sun.
Wei Wushu chased him for three days and three nights, during which he fought twelve battles with the sun, and finally captured him in the forest outside the city of Daliang on the third day.
The narrow sword fell to the ground, and the crimson sword aura that permeated the sword body had lost its former brilliance.
He lay on the ground weakly, badly wounded.
The disciple of the Armor Gate stepped forward and lifted his bronze mask.
"With so many brothers dead, I want to see what this sun looks like?"
The eyes were like beasts, and after staring at them for a long time, I couldn't help but feel a haze rise in my heart.
"Is this an occultation?"
This appearance is in line with the image of the executioner who kills without calculation in everyone's minds.
"Escort it back!"
The autumn wind courtyard is full of slaughter, only the grass in the courtyard is still there, and there is no spring.
Today, the owner of the armored door sits on the verandah, and the heroic man in the past has now become a little depressed.
As the general of the Wei State, he single-handedly kept Qiang Qin out of the country.
Killing a hundred battles is to strengthen Qin, and Zhu Hai has never been afraid. But what really chilled him was the dark arrow from behind him.
"Master, the sun has been caught. More than two hundred were wounded in the army, and fifty-eight were wounded in the disciples. ”
"How about Lian Yunfei riding over there?"
"There were not many casualties over there, three seriously wounded and twenty-six lightly wounded."
Zhu Hai nodded, after all, Lian Yunfei was seconded from Lian Po's side, and it was not appropriate to use it to death.
"You go down first!"
"Yes!"
Dian Qing was about to leave, but he noticed a strange voice in the courtyard, and suspected that it was an assassin in the net. Before he had taken two steps, he immediately turned around, and the giant axe in his hand was about to fall.
"Celebration, don't make a mistake!"
Strangely, Zhu Hai shouted in a hurry and even a little frightened, as if he had already known that someone was there.
The axe stopped at the last moment, but the man was exposed.
The other party is very calm, although he wears a wide cloak to hide his face, but the emaciation of his body is easily noticeable, and the gray hair on his temples is exposed, which makes people feel his weakness.
Dian Qing has never seen his master like this, even to King Wei, he has never been so respectful and cautious.
"Master, he."
"Dianqing, step aside!"
Zhu Hai shouted and wanted to let Dianqing leave, but was stopped by the mysterious man.
"Zhu Hai, your disciple is very good."
"Thank you for your praise."
Your Majesty?
Dian Qing knew in his heart, no wonder Zhu Hai didn't go to hunt down the sun and disappeared for many days, it turned out to be to protect him!
But I saw that the mysterious man took off his cloak and smiled slightly beside his jade-like face.
"Old man Wei Wuji!"
......
A sergeant dressed in the armor of Wei Wushu quietly left the group after the withdrawal of the large army, and did not return to Wei Wushu's camp, but turned back to Daliang from the path.
But halfway through, a man stopped him.
"Xuanjian!"
The man's eyes seemed to tear apart, staring at the swordsman in front of him, his former colleague.
"Look at the way you look now, even your own sword has been lost, what an embarrassment!"
Xuan Qian's words were very plain, but they made Occult Sun feel extremely angry.
But then, a sharp pain struck. The pain of the flesh overshadowed the anger in the heart.
Xuan Qian's black sword pierced the shoulder blades of the sun, and the two of them retreated, and the sun was stared at the trunk of the tree.
With a muffled snort, a mouthful of blood flowed from his mouth.
Covering the sun was seriously injured, and the continuous escape exhausted his strength, and Xuan Qian's blow only made up for the last sword, making him completely lose his combat effectiveness.
As an assassin at the top of the net, Occult Sun has escaped death many times, fighting back in desperate situations.
But he never thought that he would be planted in the hands of Xuan Qian, a bandit.
"How did you know I was going back to the girder?"
Xuan Jian didn't answer, but a third person's voice sounded behind the tree.
"You lost the sun and suffered such a big loss, how can you explain to Lu Buwei? What's more, your injuries can only be healed in a big city like Daliang, which is hundreds of miles away. ”
The sun couldn't see the face of the third person in the forest clearly, and the other party's voice had obviously been processed, and he couldn't get any useful information at all.
Xuan Qian's black sword nailed it to the trunk of the tree, and the white sword rested on his neck. As long as there was a little movement, Occult Sun had no doubt that Xuan Jian would kill him immediately.
"You only have one chance, tell me, why did Luo Wang kill Lian Po?"
The most extreme assassin in the world was like a plaything in the palm of the other party at this time, and the insensitiveness that he had trained couldn't help but feel a sense of humiliation.
"He's a fake!"
In the courtyard, Wei Wuji and Zhu Hai sat back on the verandah.
The only difference is that this time Wei Wuji sat in the main seat.
Wei Wuji hadn't seen the sun covering the armor with his own eyes, but he had already deduced his true truth.
"Your Majesty, why do you say this?"
"For an assassin, the weapon in his hand is not the biggest killer feature, but his identity. If you want to leave the specialty, it is better to do it. As a top-level assassin in the net, how could he not know the surrounding terrain? Don't go to the west of the city, where the terrain is complicated and easy to hide, but escape to the south of the city. Unless he had already set up a plan to get out. ”
"And who will we capture?"
"According to Dian Qing's description, this person should be a subordinate of the sun, a first-class swordsman who kills the word in the net!"
"Damn, this sun coverer is so cunning!"
Wei Wuji's clear face showed a smile, and his posture and bearing were very handsome.
"The real cunning is not the occult of the sun, but the people behind the scenes."
"Behind the scenes?"
Whether it was Zhu Hai or Dian Qing, they were all stunned at this time, and they didn't understand what Xinling Jun's so-called establishment was about?
"As you said, you found the abnormality because you saw Wei Yong's expression after the next dynasty, and after careful questioning, you learned from him that his daughter was kidnapped by Luo Net, so there was an ambush later."
"But first, Wei Yong has always been moody, how can he be easily detected by you? Second, the people who caught the net acted ruthlessly and decisively, they wanted to kill Wei Yong, and they would never take this detour to tie up his daughter. Third, after you ambushed and covered the sun, Wei Yong was most worried not about the whereabouts of his daughter, but about asking you to send more people to protect him, which can be seen for another reason. ”
"Therefore, I speculate that there is someone behind this or a force behind this, using Wei Yong, wanting to borrow our hands to deal with the sun."
"Humph! We have died so many people, but we have made wedding dresses for others. I'm going to capture Wei Yong and find out who is behind this! ”
Zhu Hai was furious, eager to cut Wei Yong with a thousand knives to avenge his dead disciple, but was stopped by Wei Wuji.
"Wei Yong is a courtier promoted by the king, there is no evidence, don't touch him easily."
"Hahaha!"
As soon as Wei Wuji's words fell, there was a burst of laughter outside the courtyard.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but your demeanor is still the same."
Who did this?
Dian Qing felt strange in his heart, but then he found that the voice was somewhat familiar, and his eyes widened.
Lian Po!
