Chapter 4: The Owl
Wei Han led his team into the woodland, the blades of grass splashed with blood, and there were already two corpses along the way, both of which were killed.
"It's him, that murderer in Zheng Cheng!"
The news they got was that this person was extremely vicious, and most of his moves were to kill him with one blow, and Wei Han deduced that he came from the forest path in Zhengcheng, which matched all the characteristics of the murderer.
"Ahh Another scream, you don't have to think about it, you know that there is another person with a different head.
Wei Han's eyes were red, how could he have thought that it would be a humiliation for him to ask the murderer to kill innocents indiscriminately, and immediately pulled out his saber and pointed at it, one word: "Kill!" β
More than two dozen people kicked and rushed straight over.
"Help, official help!" The teahouse owner held a knife in both hands and gestured awkwardly in front of him, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves, he immediately shouted for help.
There were three corpses on the ground, one beheaded, one only had his heart beheaded, and one had a broken arm rolling on the ground wailing.
It was this rolling man who bought the boss time so that he could escape to Wei Han and the others.
Jiusan's eyes were full of murderous intent, but when he heard that it was Wei Han, the team leader who came, he immediately left his boss and went into the depths of the dense forest without looking back.
It was not surprising that Wei Han would escape.
As long as they are not stupid, who would dare to single-handedly challenge them to protect the entire dragon guard?
"Leave a few people to take care of the boss to take care of the aftermath, and the rest will chase after me!" He quickly ordered the commander to detour around from both sides and block Jiusan in a surrounding form.
But Jiusan disappeared out of thin air.
The encirclement was narrowed, and the two wings were already within each other's line of sight, and Wei Han couldn't help but rein in his horse: "What about people?" β
"Is this a way to fly away with wings?" The vice-team is also strange.
"Watch the top of your head!" Wei Han shouted suddenly, and at the same time, a person on the right looked up and saw a piece of gray clothes falling down, a pair of thin hands choked his neck fiercely, and the hellish dark fear instantly hit the top of his head from the soles of his feet.
He's going to die.
This person's hands were still heavy with blood, which showed that the blood he had stained was not worth a puddle, and just now he was still killing on a large scale, five or six people died under these claws, and now it was his turn.
It's not that his strength is weak, but that the movement of the person who came is too fast, so fast that he suffocates him, and before he even has time to swing the knife, he is choked by the throat and thrown out.
Jiusan let go of his legs and landed himself firmly on his horse, not caring how sluggish the person who had fallen to the ground and survived, and fled back to the depths of the forest.
The same horse, but Jiusan's equestrian skills in the forest were obviously more than a star and a half above them, and they quickly lost their way.
At the moment when he completely lost his trace, Wei Han stabbed a knife into the trunk: "Damn it!" β
"Killing people and breaking the formation and seizing horses in one go, and such wonderful equestrian skills, this person ...... Who the hell is it? The deputy team rolled his throat, obviously a little afraid, "Is he really a fugitive slave from the Prime Minister's family?" β
If the fugitive slaves of the Prime Minister's family are all at this level, then it will be difficult for the monarch of the Great Liang Kingdom, including their master Liang, to sleep peacefully.
"Whoever he is, he will die at my hands!" Wei Han pulled out his knife in a gloomy manner, "He's going to Luoyi, let's turn around!" β
"That boss ......"
"The boss has seen his face and brought it with him." Wei Han ordered.
Luoyi.
The last rays of the setting sun disappeared at the end of the sky, but the lights on the walls of Luoyi were bright.
Today is the last day of the celebration, the residual heat of the celebration of the people of Luoyi has not yet dissipated, the lanterns hanging are bright and dazzling, and the city market is also open, adults are holding children, children are holding sugar gourds, and they are giggling when they see any new tricks.
The bustle extends from the main street to the city gate, and the sporadic lights reflect the flailed city gate, and the vermilion lacquer rivets shine with light, peaceful and peaceful.
It was an uninvited guest who broke the silence.
The gray-clothed man covered half of his face and showed the dragon guard order hanging on horseback: "There is a change in Zhengcheng, open the city gate quickly!" β
The yawning guards on the city wall were so excited that they opened the city gate in a daze, and the gray-clothed man entered the door without waiting for them to interrogate before he spoke: "Where is Your Highness now!" β
He asked anxiously and quickly, and the night made him much taller, and the city keeper gasped as if he was being pressed by a towering mountain, and subconsciously replied: "The city ...... On the last day of the celebration in the city, His Highness should, should be, should be on the altar in front of the yamenβ"
Before he could finish speaking, the man whipped the horse's ass and galloped past.
"He, who is he?" The city guard was at a loss, even Wei Han, the captain of the dragon guard who went out this afternoon, didn't have such a terrifying momentum as him.
Jiusan's heart is already overturned.
I'm going to see Your Highness.
Since he woke up, he broke out like crazy, killed people, and ran away, each of which was rushed to Luoyi as fast as possible and rushed to His Majesty's side.
Even if he knew that it was a good idea to enter the city under such a false name tonight, he couldn't care about it.
He was eager to speed up, so he went straight through the street, but Liang had a strict order that no one or anything should be a horse on the street, so he had to pick a side road to speed up.
Although he is not familiar with the streets and alleys of Luoyi, he is still very clear about the general situation that he has been the regent for so many years, and he just needs to find the yamen and go to the center of the city.
The makeshift stage in front of the yamen is still very lively, with hunting torches sounding, and the final finish is lit along the old habits of the Liang people.
Liang stepped forward to start the fire, and the bonfire that broke the oil and water exploded, and the bonfire shone brightly in the night.
Jiusan's heart was also as eager as a fire, and he couldn't wait to rush to Liang Zhi now, he had become the appearance of being seventeen years old, and His Majesty should also return to her most beautiful time.
Liang didn't know that someone was thinking of her like this, and after drinking with everyone, he excused himself and left.
"You said there was a dragon guard calling to open the city gate?"
"Yes, dressed in gray and inquired about your whereabouts, he rushed in, and the more he thought about it afterwards, the more wrong he became, he immediately sent someone to report it, and it is estimated that this person has been mixed in the crowd at the moment." Bai Zhi's hand knocked on the hilt of the sword, "This person has an unknown intention and has also taken the horse of a dragon guard, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to you." β
"Alone? Assassinate Liang most? β
Yan Pianqi finally stopped burying her head in her pamphlet, but raised her head and said: "Is this a change of sky, or is the martial arts list going to be rearranged, are there so many master brothers in the world?" β
Bai Zhi was amused by her and relaxed.
Not to mention how powerful Liang is, just because these guards are prepared, it is impossible to assassinate them.
What's more, there is only one person on the other side.
"Maybe there is still an ambush in the city, what if you want to join up with the master brother who stole your jade? Your Highness, you have to be careful, don't be the greatest lady who didn't take it, and was the first to die. Yan Pian stammered a little, but still put away the booklet and stood at the back of Liang.
Liang smiled the most: "Don't worry, there is really something, I will definitely go first." β
Yan Pian was furious: "You have no conscience, the old lady is on strike!" β
"Let's go back to our lodgings first."
Although Liang is a princess, she grew up on horseback and did not love the boxy yamen, and now she is settled in a nearby compound, which is heavily guarded and safe.
On the road, Liang looked back three times, and he couldn't see what was hidden in the empty night.
Jiusan didn't dare to follow any closer, and only dared to follow Liang Shi when he entered the mansion, he took out the Long Jue hanging around his neck, gritted his teeth and said: "I want to see Your Highness." β
