Chapter 17: Sneak Attack?
During the time that Chu Lingyi and the others were waiting, the sky gradually darkened, and the clouds were thick, and there was a faint muffled thunder.
Seeing that it was about to rain, but the person who connected it hadn't come yet, Mu Li sat in that place and felt faintly uneasy, rainy days always give people such a feeling.
After a while, the rain fell from the sky as if it had been planned for a long time, and then a man ran in from outside the ruined temple.
A middle-aged man about forty or fifty years old, with a sturdy figure, looks like a practicing family, and when he arrives in the ruined temple, he looks around vigilantly.
The man first knocked lightly on the door twice, these two sounds were just temptations, and Mu Li hurriedly responded twice after hearing it.
The man looked at the place where the voice came from but couldn't see anything, and it wasn't the first time they had connected, although they hadn't met, but the sound could still be distinguished.
That's why Chu Lingyi asked Mu Li to help, Mu Li looked at the man looking at him, pretending to be calm.
"Is there any rain today?"
"Today is not tomorrow!"
Mu Li's task was finally completed, she breathed a sigh of relief, and the man walked straight to the Buddha statue after hearing the code.
He put the things in his hand into a hole in the base of the Buddha statue, and then prepared to leave, but Xue Ping had already blocked his way at this time.
The man realized that something was wrong, but now he couldn't avoid it, and Xue Ping also recognized the man in front of him for the first time.
The man in front of him was Huang Zhong, an important minister of the Ministry of War, which made Xue Ping not expect what kind of intelligence would make him go out in person.
Huang Zhong's military achievements are impressive, he has repeatedly made military exploits in the frontier, and he has been on the battlefield for a long time, so his on-the-spot reaction will naturally not be bad.
Xue Ping and Huang Zhong were entangled together, and Chu Lingyi saw Mu Li squatting there motionless, so he hurriedly walked up.
"What's wrong?"
The concern in Chu Lingyi's eyes was revealed, Mu Li squatted in place and couldn't stand up, and his face was helpless.
"My feet are numb!" Mu Li couldn't stand up at all now.
Chu Lingyi stretched out her hand and wanted to pull Mu Li up, but the moment she stood up, she suddenly felt that her legs didn't seem to be her own.
"Slow! Slow! Slow down! ”
Mu Li moved his feet slowly, and finally walked out from behind the Buddha statue, looking at the scene of the struggle in front of him, Mu Li even wanted to applaud.
The martial arts scenes I saw in the crew before were too fake, how could they be compared to what I was looking at now, it was really cool to watch.
Xue Ping has a style of his own, but he still has a little disadvantage compared to Huang Zhong, who is experienced on the battlefield.
Late will change!
Chu Lingyi caught up with Huang Zhong, and in a few moves, he had already subdued that Huang Zhong, and he looked straight at Mu Li in a short period of time.
"You take him back to the prison of the Criminal Department first, remember to look at the good man!"
Chu Lingyi was afraid that this person would die, and he would not be able to get any useful information at that time.
As for Chu Lingyi and Mu Li, they naturally met the palace later, and after the arrangement, Xue Ping set off with the team.
Mu Li walked to the place where Huang Zhong walked over just now, took out the information he had put away, and Mu Li took it out and gave it directly to Chu Lingyi.
It's better for her to be less involved in this kind of court matter, and the less she knows, the better, otherwise even if she leaves the palace, there will still be a bunch of rights and wrongs.
Chu Lingyi glanced at the information, put it directly into his clothes, and then planned to go home with Mu Li.
Now the sky is dark, the dark clouds are like a pot pressed down, and the rain is sullen and dreary, and the rain exudes the smell of grass and trees.
The two of them stepped into the carriage, and Mu Li gradually eased up, looking at the heavy rain outside the window, coupled with the muffled thunder, which made Mu Li uneasy.
"Go back and remember to give me the letter of resignation!"
Mu Li said what he had been planning for a long time to Chu Lingyi in front of him, but Chu Lingyi was silent.
Chu Lingyi looked out the window, his face was gloomy, Mu Li leaned against the window and wanted to rest for a while.
As the carriage entered a small alley, the killers around it began to stir, staring at the carriage and ready to kill the people in the carriage.
Chu Lingyi sensed that something was wrong, and subconsciously took Mu Li beside him into his arms.
Mu Li felt that she had fallen into an embrace, and the rainy weather was a little cold, so she leaned into Chu Lingyi's arms unconsciously.
Xu felt the movement of Mu Li in his arms, and now Chu Lingyi's face had a trace of warmth.
It's just that things outside the carriage are not so easy to deal with, and the main thing now is to get out.
Chu Lingyi has no problem facing these people alone, but Mu Li around him doesn't know martial arts, and if he can't keep it, he will be injured.
Thinking of this, Chu Lingyi planned to return the same way, after all, the broken temple here was the closest, Mu Li felt that something was wrong and woke up from his arms.
"What's wrong?"
Mu Li asked uneasily, looking at Chu Lingyi's seriousness, he suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Someone's eyeing us! Let's go back the way we came! ”
The carriage returned the same way, they were now completely exposed to the killer's vision, and they naturally wouldn't let Chu Lingyi run away.
They were still observing, and flew down from the left and right, heading straight for Chu Lingyi's carriage.
Chu Lingyi looked at the outside of the carriage with sharp eyes, the sword in his hand was already clenched, and his other hand was still holding Mu Li's hand.
Looking at Chu Ling Yimu like this, she suddenly felt very secure, she didn't know why she trusted him so much, she just felt that she didn't have to worry about it if she was there.
The coachman outside had already been dealt with, and Chu Lingyi rushed out directly without waiting for the killer to enter the carriage, and he temporarily put Mu Li in the carriage.
Chu Lingyi did not allow anyone to approach next to the carriage, and those who approached could only die!
Before a few killers reached the side of the carriage, they had already been sealed by Chu Lingyi's sword, and the speed was so fast that it was impossible to avoid it.
He is worthy of being the god of war of Nanchen Kingdom!
The rain wet Chu Lingyi's hair, and the raindrops dripped down the side of his face to the ground, and now Chu Lingyi's eyes were like torches, and his eyes were hot like a wolf looking at his prey.
It's not that those killers haven't heard of the name of the god of war, but now they can only choose to die and break the net.
After the eyes signaled, they decided to go together, no matter how powerful Chu Lingyi was, it was impossible to do everything.
More than a dozen killers rushed towards Chu Lingyi, who took a step back, guarding the carriage tightly while facing the siege of more than a dozen killers.
Mu Li watched Chu Lingyi fighting in the rain in the carriage, and suddenly couldn't help but want to applaud him.
It's just that when she saw a killer circling behind Chu Lingyi and preparing to sneak attack, she couldn't sit still.
She grabbed the self-defense dagger that Chu Lingyi had put down for her just now, and rushed towards the person who attacked her!
Looking at Mu Li, who suddenly rushed over, the man who originally attacked also changed the target of the attack.
