Chapter 6: The Conspiracy of Chang'an City (2)
After being transferred back to Chang'an City from the front line, the Silver 6 team had a few days of easy life. Except for Cheng Zhijie, who was transferred, everyone else enjoyed a rare vacation.
Today is not the day when Li Bai is on duty, and after he gets up early, he does not study and practice swords like in the past, but personally arranges for his attendants to prepare exquisite food and flowers, and waits in the living room with some excitement.
Today, it was easy to get together with his comrades-in-arms who had returned to Chang'an City, and Li Bai had been counting the time since last night, and he was excited and apprehensive.
Maybe it's because I can see Zhaojun again~ Li Bai thought so, but there was a trace of uneasiness and doubt lingering in his thoughts.
Is there something going to happen?
I guess it's just an illusion...... I was so tired some time ago.
"Yo hey hey! Qinglian, we're here! There was still more than an hour before lunchtime, and Mulan had already come happily first, and Wang Zhaojun, who had finally recovered from her injuries, was following her.
"Riding Captain~ You're really early."
"Isn't that welcome? I'm a Captain now, okay! Hua Mulan took the ice beauty's hand and unceremoniously jumped on the soft chair next to her to eat her heart, "Aren't you still eating?" β
"There's still an hour~ everyone hasn't arrived." After greeting Mulan, Li Bai turned around and said hello to the long-lost ice beauty, "Zhaojun, does your body really don't need to rest in bed anymore?" β
"Thank you, Qinglian, don't worry." Zhaojun smiled sweetly.
"She's in good health!" Mulan's cheeks were stuffed with mung bean cakes, bulging like hamsters, "Let's ...... together"
Wang Zhaojun turned his head to look at Mulan, who immediately stopped talking, and awkwardly touched his cheek and sat down on the recliner.
"A lot has happened in my absence." Wang Zhaojun maintained impeccable etiquette and sat down elegantly, talking to Li Bai, who was three points restrained and seven points excited.
"It's true, there were many strange things about the previous battles. An unusual monster, a crypt that suddenly appeared, an unidentified alien powerhouse. Bai beckoned the attendant to bring sweet drinks to the two of them, and talked about what happened during this period of time, "A mysterious force has kidnapped Mengqi, and although we have launched a large-scale city-wide search, we have found nothing so far. β
"I've heard about it too, Mengqi~" Wang Zhaojun took the drink and took a sip, "Judging from its ability, even if it encounters an invincible opponent, it will be difficult to stop it if it wants to escape with all its might." β
"It's also strange that the enemy has at least Legendary strength to be able to fully control it. But why did the legendary powerhouse target it? β
"Huh~ this is easy to do." Mulan, who was eating on the side, ate all the dim sum, "You know what! I recently got a taste of food! Throw beef, lamb, offal, and various vegetables into the pot and cook them! β
"Listen...... Doesn't that sound like a messy stew? It's really delicious! Li Bai smiled, "Why does your expression say that I really want to eat again!" β
"I really want to eat it again! You haven't eaten it, so you don't have a concept! Mulan's face began to flush again, startling Bai and Wang Zhaojun, who were sitting opposite her, and thought something was wrong with her.
"That feeling...... It's like ...... Hey, how can I say that? It's like being overwhelmed by the tide of happiness~"
Wang Zhaojun rolled his eyes at this foodie. Li Bai fantasized about what Mulan said, and it felt weird......
"Who else today?" Mulan pulled herself back from her fantasy, "Go find a pot!" I'll make it for you! I need lots and lots of peppers and tomatoes! β
"When are you going to cook?"
"It's easy! Just throw something in! Mulan looked at the owner of the house with certainty, "Boil two pots of water first, and then add lots and lots of tomatoes to one and lots and lots of peppers to the other!" β
While the three of them were talking, there was a commotion in the street outside the front yard.
At first, it was just one or two shouts like screams, and hundreds of thousands of people shouted and hundreds of dogs barked
"What's going on?" Wang Zhaojun stood up, her thin willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if evoking some memory, "This voice outside doesn't sound right." β
"Li Er, go outside and see what's going on. If anyone makes trouble, go to the patrol. As the host of the banquet, Li Bai was a little embarrassed. He lives in a very decent community, and there is no such noise in the past.
The noise was getting closer, mixed with one or two sharp and poignant shouts, as if there had been a murder.
"Yes, young master." Li Er pushed open the main entrance of the front yard and poked his head out to look around. Xiao Yan looked at his servant from behind, and suddenly chuckled in his heart.
Is there something bad going to happen?
Several neighbors and passers-by ran past the door in horror, stumbling as if evil spirits were chasing after them, and some of the unlucky ones tripped and fell to the ground, and then struggled to run hand and foot.
"What's going on?" Li Er muttered and looked at the other side of the street, only to see the kid from the Zhang family next door with blood loss on his face, rushing towards him like crazy.
"Oops! Young Master Zhang, what are you? β
β¦β¦
Li Bai and the three of them all walked out of the living room to see what was happening, and before they could step out of the threshold, they heard Li Er's heart-rending howl coming from the gate.
"Help! Young master, help! Li Er was thrown to the ground by the young master of the Zhang family, and the boy who was only fifteen or sixteen years old bit off Li Er's throat in one bite, and the blood rushed out like a fountain.
Li Bai chuckled in his heart, and reached out to touch the saber on his waist. In a trance, he felt that the girl next to him should scream loudly when she saw such a scene, and he had to do something quickly.
However, the imaginary scream did not appear, and an icy spear shot out from Li Bai's side, instantly piercing the neck of the Zhang family boy and nailing him to the main entrance.
"Qinglian, captain, we need to seal the entrance." The quiet and beautiful girl did not look a little afraid, and raised her hand to raise a few ice cubes and flew towards the entrance of the front yard.
What a strange woman! Li Bai praised the ice beauty in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to check the housekeeper's injury.
"Don't touch him!" Before Li Bai could help Li Er, Hua Mulan had already hurriedly opened her mouth to stop her.
Without waiting for Li Bai to ask the reason, the housekeeper, who had always been kind and capable, jumped up and pounced on Li Bai's throat like a jackal in the mountains who had been hungry for half a month.
"Through!" said that it was too late, and then quickly, Mulan waved a sword. The thin sword pierced Li Er's forehead, and the blade of the sword broke out from the back of his head.
"Huh? This? Li Bai was in a trance for one hundred thousandth of a second, although he didn't understand what was happening, but he was very clear that Li Er, who pounced on him just now, was no longer the housekeeper he was familiar with.
The rich aura of death and darkness just now was something Li Bai had never seen before. Even if we don't know why, it's certain, it's not a good thing.
β¦β¦
"Li Bai, stand back!" Hua Mulan grabbed Li Bai's robe and dragged it back, and four or five passers-by, who were also covered in blood and wounds, rushed in through the half-open door.
"Stop them! Wall of Ice! Wang Zhaojun's pleasant voice summoned the spirit of ice, and a wall of ice appeared in front of Li Bai, freezing these monsters in the ice crystals.
"Everyone retreat," Mulan dragged Li Bai, who was still thinking, back, "Go get the weapon!" β
"Zhaojun, contact the Governor's Mansion and prepare for battle!" Mulan clenched the sword in her hand, "Level 1 Battle Alert!" β
