Chapter 1: Self-inflicted iniquity
Flame Night couldn't walk anymore, his horse had been shot, and his legs were running like lead. He couldn't tell whether it was blood or sweat on his forehead, and it scorched his eyes.
Finally, Flame Night stumbled and knelt on the ground holding on to a tree on the side of the road. A fiery sword in his hand was as piercing as the blood on his body. He gasped, trying to get up. He knew that there were still pursuers behind him, and he couldn't be hacked to death because he was tired, that would be too embarrassing.
As soon as he barely stood up, he vaguely saw several women walking at the intersection in front of him. The woman in the middle was the most eye-catching, and he saw her at a glance. Dressed in white, her long black hair curled up slightly at the back of her head, with only a pendant adorned with a veil covering her face. Although only one pair of eyes are exposed, it is also unforgettable.
The two pink-clothed girls in front of her led the way, holding the dust in their hands. Six pink-clothed girls followed behind him, carrying swords behind them. An outstanding girl in purple next to her followed her and served carefully.
Flame Night lowered her eyes, endured the pain in her body, moved her body, and made way for the woman in white.
Ah Zi glanced at the dying flame night on the side of the road, and asked the woman in white, "Palace master, there is an injured person on the side of the road, let's leave him alone?" ”
Zhilan glanced at Yan Ye casually, this person looked handsome, there were many sword wounds on his body, and the one he held tightly in his right hand was the Huang He sword. So he retracted his gaze and said coldly to Ah Zi: "Other people's grievances should not interfere." ”
On the rivers and lakes, there are intricacies between sects, and if you save one, you will offend the other, and no one will be so stupid.
Ah Zi looked at Yan Ye sympathetically, even if she met a beggar on the road, if she opened her mouth to beg for it, the palace master might be able to throw a piece of silver, but it involved the grievances of the rivers and lakes, and she really couldn't pay attention to him.
The country road was not wide, so Firenight clung to the trunk of the tree and stood carefully to the side, so as not to let her blood-stained clothes touch the girl's skirt. Zhilan didn't look at him sideways anymore and passed by.
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking the sky, and at the end of the road, ten men in black appeared, nine of whom wore bronze demon masks and held copper-ringed broadswords. The one in the lead had no mask, he looked burly and fat, with a face full of flesh, and he held a Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand. is laughing, "The little lamb can't run anymore, and there is a reward for catching it alive!" As he spoke, ten people quickly surrounded him.
Ah Zi said to Zhilan, "Palace Master, shall we avoid it?" "After all, this is someone else's business, how innocent their palace master is, just passing by.
Zhilan was nodding, but the man in black in the lead suddenly found Zhilan, and when he saw her eyes, the eyes of the man in black lit up. The nine men in black surrounded the Flame Night and fought fiercely, but he landed in front of Zhilan.
The two girls in front of his head who were holding dusts in their hands were lying in front of him, and said sharply, "Stand down!" ”
Not only did the man not retreat, but he also introduced himself with a smile, "Under Zhu Jie, the girl is not with that kid, right?" ”
Zhilan looked at Zhu Jie coldly and didn't speak, Ah Zi scolded him, "My young lady is just passing by, please let me go." You have something to do for yourself. "I can only call Miss to the outside world, and the palace master is too revealing of his identity.
Zhu Jie reached out to touch the face of the girl in pink in front of her, the girl was shocked, and threw Zhu Jie's hand painfully with a flick of dust. But when he saw the beauty, his temper was very good, and he rubbed his hands and smiled, "There is a small leader in the Lower Xuanming Gate, where does the girl's family live?" It's not convenient to go on your own road, I can send you. ”
Zhilan's brows were frivolous, Xuanmingmen...... "In the end, you, or don't get out." She spoke suddenly, her voice as clear as the water of a spring. Zhu Jie was immersed in the beauty and did not understand the meaning of the words.
Ah Zi stepped forward and pushed Zhu Jie away, and the force was so great that the fat man fell.
"Let's go." Zhilan walked past him.
Zhu Jie finally got angry, and as soon as he got up, a man in black next to him came over and whispered to him, "Yanye has been caught, do you want to go back now." ”
But Zhu Jie stared gloomily at Zhilan's back, "Since you have caught the flame night, you will complete the task, it's still early, watch me catch another one!" As he spoke, he jumped up in the air, his fat body was unexpectedly light, and he stretched out a hand and went straight to Zhilan.
Zhilan spit out a word: "Kill." "The eight girls in front and back are all out of their swords. Only Ah Zi was by Zhilan's side.
Zhu Jie should not have imagined that he had encountered a hard stubble, and it was difficult for him to fight against Yanye along the way, but he was ten, Yanye was one, and this one was injured.
His nine subordinates glanced at each other, the boss wants to accept the beauty, will they help or not? Flame Night laboriously glanced at the few people fighting in front of him. Eight pink slender girls and a black fat man, the color contrast is also stark.
This is his only chance, Flame Night closed his eyes and fell, a man in black next to him didn't expect him to fall suddenly, he didn't hold it, Flame Night fell to the ground hard.
The man in black took one look at it and immediately ordered, "He fainted, leaving two to watch him with me, and the other people to support the boss." ”
Several men in black answered, and six people rushed forward to help.
Zhilan didn't move, because Zhu Jie was about to be defeated, but when she saw another person rushing up, Zhilan casually pulled out a long sword that exuded cold air from Ah Zi's waist.
Seeing the palace master's move, Ah Zi also pulled out his other sword behind him and followed closely. Zhilan's sword went directly at Zhu Jie's face, Zhu Jie blocked it in horror, and one of Fang Tian's halberd ears was cut off with a bang. After a few rounds, Zhu Jie not only broke his weapon, but also had many cuts on his clothes, and his face was flushed with shame.
He was so angry that he was about to do it again, when the men next to him exclaimed, "Boss! People ran away! ”
Zhu Jie was frightened, turned his head to look over, and saw the three black-clothed men who were guarding fainted to the ground, and threw the rope tied to the flame night on them. Zhu Jie glanced at Zhilan viciously and ordered, "You fools! Chase! ”
In the blink of an eye, everyone ran away. Ah Zi returned to Zhilan's side, "Palace Master, are you okay?" I didn't expect them to be from the Xuanming Gate, and a cult is a cult ......" Ah Zi was angry, thinking about the people of her Liuli Palace, there are a few people in the world who dare to tease.
Zhilan didn't answer, but looked at the bushes on one side and said, "People are gone, come out." ”
Ah Zi was frightened, and the bloodied young man walked out of the bushes, and he nodded weakly, "Thank you to the palace master for coming to the rescue." ”
"I didn't save you." Zhilan responded unceremoniously, and she was turning to leave, when there was the sound of a heavy object falling behind her. Looking back, Flame Night really fainted this time.
Zhilan couldn't help but sigh and said, "That...... Take him with you. ”
Ah Zi asked, "Didn't the palace master say ......?"
"Since it's the Xuanming Gate, it's nothing if you save it."
