Chapter 52: The Beginning of the Storm

Night City, the capital of the country

On this day, the people on the streets of Night City were stopped on both sides of the street by officers and soldiers, and everyone craned their necks to look at the group of royal troops walking in the middle of the street.

"This old-timer, dare to ask what the situation is?"

In the crowd, a thin and slender man in white asked softly.

"The little brother is not from the night city, there has been a big incident in the night city recently, after the matter is resolved, the emperor in order to pray for the country, with a few ladies in the palace, is going to the Ciyun Temple on the mountain outside the city to worship!"

An old man said patiently.

"Oh? What's the big deal? ”

"Hey! The little brother doesn't know anything, last month, Nangong Hai, the general of Zhenbei, was found to have murdered the first emperor, and General Nangong's family was ordered by the emperor to behead all over the house. ”

"What about Nangong Lingyu, the daughter of General Nangong?"

"My nephew who was on an errand in the palace told me that not long after the Jade Concubine Niangniang gave birth to a little prince, the emperor was gracious and imprisoned her in the cold palace, I am afraid that it will be a lifetime!"

The white-clothed man squinted, pursed his lips, and looked at the team that was drifting away with an expressionless face.

Ling Ling arrived in Night City to arrest the last few people on the list, but he didn't expect to hear the news as soon as he arrived in Night City.

She thought of all the things she had done with Nangong Lingyu in the palace that day, but she didn't expect that in two years, the gentle Nangong sister would suffer this catastrophe......

Ling Ling regained his senses, calmed down the regret in his heart, put half of the face mask he had taken from the mask shop on his face, and disappeared into the crowd.

She followed the mark on Mu Bai's list, came to the halfway point of a mountain outside Night City, and sat by the lake to wait for the rabbit.

Mu Bai's label said that the last few people on the list are a group, and the most frequent place to haunt is the mountain outside the Night City, the individual martial arts in this group are not particularly high, but the cooperation between them is quite tacit, so far no bounty hunters, or even a team of bounty hunters, can take them down, so they have become the thief gang with the highest bounty in Baixi so far.

Ling Ling was a little worried, in terms of martial arts, she was not afraid, but she was afraid that her opponent would cooperate more, which would catch her off guard...... This is the last and most important one, and if she takes them down, she will be able to surpass the Quartet Guardian in terms of bounty hunters, so she must not fail.

She quietly looked at the lake, thinking of a foolproof way, she put one hand on her knee, and her fingers subconsciously tapped lightly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of stepping on a tree branch not far behind him, Ling Ling was excited, and instantly stood up and turned around,

"Who?"

I saw a man standing under a tree not far away, he was dressed in a dark green brocade robe, and his belt was tightly tied around his waist, looking taller and taller.

The Phnom Penh jade crown is high with 3,000 green silks, the facial features are as flawless as a knife carving, and the corners of the mouth have a hint of a smile, although it looks gentle and elegant, but it faintly exudes the temperament of the emperor.

Ling Ling was shocked in her heart, although she only had one side, she remembered the face between her eyebrows and Bai Feiye.

The person in front of her was the emperor she had met in the palace, Bai Yixiu.

"I'm sorry, looking at your back, I thought I saw an old man."

Bai Yixiu slowly walked up to Ling Ling, with a handsome face and a soft smile, and said softly, without the slightest emperor's posture.

Since Nangong Hai's accident, he has been very irritable, and taking the opportunity to worship, he wants to leave Ciyun Temple alone and prepare to go down the mountain for a walk.

When he didn't want to go halfway up the mountain, he saw a white figure sitting by the lake, he only felt that the slender back reminded him of a person in his memory, a person who died two years ago, only saw one time, but could not let him forget.

Ling Ling was secretly glad that he was dressed as a man and wore a mask, otherwise if he found out that he looked exactly like Xiahou Ling, not to mention what kind of reason she should use to convince him, what if she suddenly gave her a crime of bullying the king!

"It's okay, I just thought about things a little preoccupied, and the surroundings were a little quiet, so I was startled by a small voice."

The lips under the mustache are raised at a nice angle.

Bai Yixiu's starry eyes flashed slightly, and the voice of the person in front of him was clear, without a man's unique timbre; A nice fragrance wafted into the tip of the nose, and the fragrance was mixed with a faint daughter fragrance that could be ignored.

He suddenly became curious, raised his eyebrows, and said,

"I wonder what you're doing here alone?"

"I ...... Waiting for an important person. ”

Ling Ling was sloppy, she was a little weak-hearted, after all, she had been a little involved with Bai Yixiu, and she also used fake death to avoid the concubine selection ceremony......

"Really? Here are deep mountains and wild forests, Your Excellency and others should pay attention to safety. ”

After that, Bai Yixiu smiled at the corner of his mouth and turned away gracefully.

Seeing his back gradually moving away, Ling Ling instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and she watched him leave.

Suddenly, a few black shadows flashed in the direction of Bai Yixiu's departure, Ling Lingxiu frowned, the prey was actually headed for Bai Yixiu?

She mobilized her inner breath and disappeared in an instant.

Feeling several strong breaths behind him, Bai Yixiu secretly mobilized his whole body to breathe, and when he turned to fight back, a white figure instantly blocked in front of him, and a good fragrance floated from the tip of his nose.

"These people are not small, I will resist them, you should leave at the right time."

Ling Ling turned his back to Bai Yixiu and whispered.

Bai Yixiu smiled in his eyes, this little girl actually said that she wanted to protect him? His heart was full of curiosity, and he took his breath and obediently hid behind Ling Ling like a little white rabbit.

"Isn't it a shame for a group of people to sneak up on one person? I have the ability to come out and compete with my master. ”

Ling Ling raised his voice and said.

Four black figures instantly surrounded her and Bai Yixiu.

"Where did the ignorant child come out, I advise you, what we want is the person behind you, if you know each other now, we can still let you live, if you insist on this, don't blame us for being polite!"

The black-clothed man facing Ling Ling shouted loudly, and Ling Ling felt that the knife in his hand was filled with a strong internal breath. The stronger the opponent, the more excited she became, and the corners of her mouth under the mustache raised,

"I also advise you, obediently disarm and surrender, otherwise don't blame me for beating you to find your mother later!"

"Hmph, I don't know what's wrong!"

Four black shadows instantly rushed towards Ling Ling, Ling Ling grabbed Bai Yixiu and quickly flashed behind a tree not far away.

"You hurry up, I'll leave it here."

With that, disappear where you are.

Bai Yixiu's eyes were full of amazement, he didn't expect this little girl's kung fu to be so handsome!

Ling Ling instantly came behind one of them, the palm wind in her hand hit his waist, and when the person turned back, she disappeared again.

One after another, the four men in black were all plotted by Ling Ling.

"Alone, we are not his opponents, cooperate!"

One of the men in black gave the order, and they instantly leaned back together, and the inner breath of the four people merged into one, forming an unbreakable protection.
