Chapter 232: I Am the Emperor
In the yellowing plain, Song Hexuan and his party traveled day and night, and they had arrived in less than half a month.
It's not because of anything else, but the road after the snow closes the mountain is too difficult to walk, and the horse is a complete waste, and the hooves can't be pulled out even if you step down.
Therefore, the subsequent road is all out step by step, and it is not easy to do light work or anything, and it can even be said to be cumbersome.
After crossing the high mountain, Song Hexuan and his party saw the small village in front of them, who would have thought that this organization hiding in the deepest part of the empire was such a small mountain village.
"Qiqi, are you sure it's here? No matter how you look at it, it's a village, not like an organization like the Knife Grinding Hall. ”
Although there is another strange wall in the village, Song Hexuan still has no way to associate this village with the Knife Grinding Hall and I am the emperor, so it is contrary to the harmonious painting style.
"It can't be wrong, according to the address recorded in the letter, it's right here, don't use your brain, which doesn't distinguish between east and west, to think about such a profound question as this route."
At night, the moonlight flickered on and off under the cover of clouds. In front of Song Hexuan's nine people, there were thirty-eight shiny nails.
These thirty-eight nails are nothing else, they are the unique items in the brocade guard, the corpse nails. Unlike the hidden weapons of the same door, this corpse nail pierces the dead.
Listening to the name, this corpse nail is very much like a hidden weapon, but, this is actually a wrong understanding, as the name suggests, this is a prop used to infiltrate assassination in the brocade guard.
As for the function, it's very simple. What I'm most afraid of when I sneak in, yes, it's the sound. Even if you break your neck, there will be a very slight sound.
However, with a corpse nail will not. A nail piercing the corpse went down, piercing from the heavenly spirit cover and straight into the throat, no matter how painful that person was, the slightest sound was released, and he was incapacitated.
Guards and secret guards are the biggest trouble when the five of Song Hexuan infiltrate, because you have to infiltrate quietly. But you can't kill them. As long as there are professionally trained guards and secret guards, they will be arranged with one person and two lines of sight, whether it is a secret guard or a guard, they will ensure that they are arranged in tandem within the line of sight of two companions.
Looking at the peaceful village of the Knife Grinding Hall in front of me, I secretly don't know how many bright and secret whistles there are, and one accident will be discovered.
In order to deal with this situation, Cang Er deliberately made this kind of corpse nail when he came. The guard's skeleton is immobilized with steel spikes, and even if he is dead, he can still stand and confuse the other guards.
According to Soji. Jinyiwei's secret method of piercing corpses and nails is much more cruel than the ordinary. Pierce the corpse nail, nail the skeleton shape, pierce the big hole, and break its spine, so that the person's heartbeat and breathing are still there, and the general master of the day after tomorrow can continue to survive for about five to eight minutes.
After observing for the past few days, Song Hexuan chose a breakthrough point, the south of the village.
According to Song Hexuan's observation. To the south of the village is the only place in this isolated village to communicate with the outside world, and is responsible for transporting food and miscellaneous goods on weekdays.
In the beginning. Song Hexuan didn't want to pretend to be these people and sneak in, but after seeing the strict inspection every time these people entered the door, he still gave up, not only the password, but also the before and after comparison of the portraits.
For the four villains who can't make human skin masks at all right now, infiltrating is already the best way. There is no other way.
Black clouds had already covered the sky over the small village, and the bright moonlight had become obscure under the black clouds, and the sentry posts around the village were still patrolling quietly as usual.
In the shadows, a dark whistle seemed to be a little sleepy. In the end, I couldn't help it anymore and yawned a little. But at this moment when he closed his eyes, a black shadow crossed his companion in front of him.
Just when he thought it was his eyes, suddenly it felt as if something had pierced his head, and then a sharp object pierced his back vertebrae, through his chest, nailing it there.
The pain in his heart made him want to scream, but no matter how he opened his mouth, he couldn't make the slightest sound, he didn't understand why he was pierced through his head and chest cavity and was not dead, the severe pain made him almost faint, but at this time, he suddenly found that it was already a luxury.
At this time, the dark sentry finally understood that the one just now was not an illusion at all, but an enemy invasion.
In the minds of Song Hexuan, Xia Qiqi and the others, they had already planned the route before the action, and now there were only two things for them to do.
One, killing.
Second, walk in.
The black figure melted into the darkness, silently destroying most of the guards on the south side of the village, and drifting in in a gust of wind.
It's just that what Song Hexuan didn't know was that when they first entered the village, in a black house in the center of the village, a young demonic man was drinking alone under the moon at this time.
"Does the Lord think that wild cat from last night will come again?" Beside the demon man, another person who was drinking tea with a comfortable face looked at the book and smiled.
"Will it come? It should be said that it has come, and there is more than one, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. a total of five, oh, it's really a lot, tell to go down, open the door to pick up customers, be a little ready, don't let our guests down. ”
Gently pinching the white jade cup in his hand, the bewitching man seemed to be very happy, like a child who had been waiting for a long time finally had a toy.
As soon as the words fell, suddenly behind the two of them, a row of masters in black night clothes appeared, and the person at the head was holding a pitch-black long sword and said in a muffled voice.
"Lord, let me meet him first!"
The young man snorted and sneered, "You're going? What words do you want me to put on your tombstone? This wild cat is not something you can deal with, just watch it honestly. ”
Song Hexuan outside could be said to have been unimpeded all the way after entering, until they approached the house in the middle of the village, and they realized that something was wrong.
"Be careful."
Before Xia Qiqi's reminder could be spoken, a black figure had already crossed behind Song Hexuan, and at this moment, the hot feeling behind him told Song Hexuan that he was injured.
"Welcome to the Hall of Sharpening Knives, the Four Wicked Ones."
Under the moonlight, a young man stepped out of the moon with a glass cup, followed by dozens of masters of different shapes.
"King Kong Tai Sui - Xing Ba, Turning the River Dragon - Xiang Xiaotian, Little Thunder God - Lei Huo'er, I didn't expect these masters who have disappeared on the rivers and lakes for so long to be here, so you must be the master here, I am the emperor of the Grinding Knife Hall."
Under the night light, Song Hexuan's voice drifted far, far away, until it reached the ears of the distant land site. (To be continued.) )
