Chapter 11: A Shocking Sword
The eyebrows of the man in Tsing Yi raised, and he glanced at the rosewood gold-inlaid chopsticks on the ground, and then his eyes burst into fine light, and his sword-like gaze shot at Qi Hao on the table next to him.
The information he originally got was because of the family banquet in the inner court, and the guards were not allowed to enter, so Qi Long should only have two masters of the inner prison by his side to protect him, as long as he was close. He swung out the copper plate to block one of them, and at the same time desperately consumed his internal force to make the Heavenly Demon Lion Break, and shook back to kill the other, as long as there was a moment of lightning and flint, he had the confidence to kill Qi Long immediately under the sword. But who knew that there was such a master by Qi Long's side.
He couldn't think about it too much, and at the same time, the master of the internal supervision who hit the flying copper plate had already been killed. The man in Tsing Yi immediately withdrew his sword, his wrist trembled slightly, changed his sword momentum, and met him.
Before the few assassins who pounced out of the entertainers had reached Qi Long's seat, the concubines were already in chaos, and the palace gate was occupied by the assassins, and the hall was full of people who were scattered and fleeing, and a few of the assassins who rushed forward had the patience to open the way, and immediately raised their knives and cut them, and immediately a few unlucky ghosts who blocked their way to the front of them died.
As soon as the assassin moved the killing ring, the palace screamed and was in chaos. I can't tell whether it's the master or the slave, and they crawl one by one, crying and crying.
Concubine Yun was originally sitting in front, seeing that the assassin was killed, she was about to retreat, as soon as she stood up, she was stepped on her skirt, and she stumbled and held a person next to her, so she didn't fall, but before she could stand firmly, she seemed to be pushed by someone who didn't know what was behind her, and suddenly lost her balance, rolled down in the hall, and just about to get up, an assassin arrived in front of her in the blink of an eye, and the bright steel knife was about to fall, Concubine Yun's heart was broken, she screamed, and suddenly grabbed the person next to her and sent it forward.
"Ah!! ......" A terrible scream was deafening, and then it came to an abrupt end. It's Zheng Guifei! She happened to be sitting next to Concubine Yun just now, and when she ran away, she accidentally stepped on Concubine Yun's skirt, and when Concubine Yun fell out, she was taken out, and the two rolled together.
With this knife, Zheng Guifei was cut into two by Shengsheng's waist, and the fragrance disappeared immediately. A severed hand fell on Concubine Yun's face, dripping with blood, and Concubine Yun immediately fainted.
At this time, the battle in front of the golden dragon table was already in full swing. Tsing Yi is extremely clever, and he is not inferior to the master of internal supervision and Qi Hao when he joins forces, and he has made dozens of moves in the blink of an eye.
The man in Tsing Yi couldn't help but be secretly frightened, he didn't expect that there was such a master in the Qi Palace, although he still had a slight upper hand now, but it was not possible to do it in a short time if he wanted to take down these two people, the guards outside the hall would soon rush in, and the opportunity for assassination was fleeting.
Seeing that he couldn't attack, he was also anxious. Immediately gritted his teeth, "smack, swoop ......", stabbed out seven swords in a row, one sword was faster than the other, one sword was more powerful than the other, the sword light was like frost all over the ground, diffuse, and rolled towards the remaining master of the inner prison, the master of the inner prison could not resist for a while, and retreated again and again. Among the ordinary martial arts sword moves, there are also many attack moves connected by several swords, such as the usual "Five Plum Branches" and "Seven Stars Shine on the Moon", and there are even masters who are good at this way who can use dozens of swords to connect the moves. But he had never seen a person's moves that could make it so fast, so coherent and flawless between swords, these seven swords could hardly tell which was the first sword and which was the seventh sword, and he only saw a piece of blue light spreading in front of him, and his eyes were dizzy.
He instantly forced back the master of the inner prison with seven consecutive swords, and then deflected the sword momentum, and it was seven consecutive swords, and the sword momentum was unfailing, rolling towards Qi Hao like a waterfall flying spring, and the change of moves was ingenious and neat, which was extremely rare.
Seeing that the sword light was coming in front of him in an instant, Qi Hao knew that if he was also forced to retreat, he was afraid that this group of assassins would be able to sing a triumphant song, and today next year would definitely be Qi Long's death day.
He gritted his teeth suddenly, did not retreat but advanced, his hands bloomed like lotus flowers, and he changed several gestures in a row, and every time he changed, Qi Hao's fingers flicked on the blade of the sword exactly ......, "Ding Ding " several times, and the aftertaste was long and endless.
Tsing Yi people were even more anxious, but they still couldn't help but be shocked. Because it is difficult to conceal the weapon for a long time in the palace, he is currently using a short blade in his hand, not the long sword he is taking advantage of, so the power of this move is only six or seven percent of the original, but the other party can block it empty-handed!
Qi Hao was also miserable at this time, the martial arts of the opposite were not under him, and he had no weapons, he could only use his empty hands against the opponent's steel blade, just now he dealt with the seven swords of the Tsing Yi people The tricks he had learned in his life were really what he had learned, and now he only felt that his qi and blood were blocked, and his ten fingers were sore, and he was almost unconscious. It is impossible to let him perform it again, but fortunately, the internal strength of the people in Tsing Yi is also limited, and the Heavenly Demon Lion Break he used just now has consumed a lot of internal strength, and at this time, there is no spare strength to perform that sword technique again.
The people in Tsing Yi still showed up their killer moves, not giving the two of them a chance at all, and the two of them were in a worse situation, all of which could barely support it with the advantage of more to less. But in distress again and again, Qi Hao had already hung a color on his arm.
Immediately, several assassins who came to support rushed across the chaotic hall, and suddenly Qi Hao and the two were even more dangerous.
Qi Long has only learned some bow and horse kung fu, and Ben has no real martial arts, after ascending the throne as the emperor in the past few years, he has been busy with state affairs, and even this idea of kung fu has been mostly put down, and he has no power to fight back in the face of assassins of this level, and at this time he can only sit behind the chair and panic.
In the past few years, Daqi has fought and killed everywhere, destroyed countless countries, and naturally has many grievances. Although Qi Long has experienced several assassinations in his life, he has been blocked by the guards every time he is still on the periphery, and there has never been a time when he was approached by an assassin like this, and the tip of the sword has already touched his nose.
The queen and Ni Guifei were both stunned, shrunk behind Qi Long, trembling. No matter how deep their scheming and ruthless methods are, they are also aristocratic ladies raised in the deep boudoir, delicate, soft and soft, where have they ever seen this kind of scene of swords and soldiers adding to each other and splashing blood. Su Mi saw the opportunity quickly, and as soon as there was a change, he pulled Qiyan and ran to the back, and now the two of them were beside Ni Guifei and the queen, and the four of them hid together, looking at the scene in front of them in horror, and the usual jealousy was completely thrown out of the clouds.
Swords add up. The fast sword of the man in Tsing Yi and the continuous attacks of several assassins were like *, Qi Hao couldn't help but start to suspect that he was going to die here, and he and the inner prison around him were covered in blood.
At this time, the shouting at the door gradually stopped, and immediately an assassin shouted, "Not good! I'm afraid the brothers outside won't be able to hold on. ”
He was talking about the companions who were guarding the door under the leadership of the head of the Shen Qing class to resist the guards rushing in, and they couldn't resist the attack of the guards.
Several assassins were in a hurry, and immediately attacked Qi Hao and the two of them a little more ruthlessly. A clever assassin turned around and saw that most of the concubines and palace maids in the hall who had escaped death were hiding behind the pillars on both sides of the main hall, shivering. After thinking about it and thinking about it, he immediately flew to the back of the pillar and slashed at the concubines.
The concubines were suddenly in chaos again, scattering and fleeing, crying for their fathers and mothers, and the usual etiquette rules were completely gone.
The palace gate finally opened, and it was Mu Qinghan, who was guarding the door, who rushed in with someone. According to the rules of the palace, these guards should avoid the banquet in the inner court, so they are all arranged to guard at the door, and the killing sound in the palace is together, everyone immediately knew, and hurriedly wanted to rush into the palace to rescue, but the assassins were also prepared, and they had already arranged for people to intercept them at the palace gate. Those eight or nine people were desperately guarding the door, and the gate of the palace was already narrow, and the guards had the advantage of having a large number of people, but they couldn't rush up, and they were blocked for a while, and it was difficult to break through.
Hearing the shouts of the palace concubines in the palace, he knew that the assassins inside had begun to kill them. Mu Qinghan and the others were so anxious that they wanted to get angry. He stopped the head of the Shen Qing class first, and almost fought to the end, so he solved the assassins who were guarding the door and rushed into the hall with people.
As soon as I entered the palace gate, I saw that the palace was full of concubines and palace maids running around, and the guards had big heads, and they couldn't learn from the assassins to pick up knives.
There is still a considerable distance from the palace gate to the dragon chair. But the momentum of everyone rushing forward was suddenly stopped, and they wanted to rush up to rescue Qi Long, but the speed was not much faster.
The Assassins were anxious at this time, and they had carried out several assassination plans before, but none of them were able to get close to Qi Long's location. Most of them were intercepted while they were still on the periphery, and even a few times they were discovered while they were still preparing and planning, and they were hunted down and killed. For today's assassination plan, they can be said to have made a desperate gamble, mobilized all the undercover eyeliners in the palace, and finally waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
You must know that Qi Long's night banquet is different from that in the Qianqing Palace and the main hall of the palaces, because there are too many palace concubines and concubines, so there are no personal guards around him, only a few masters of the inner prison to serve and protect him. So they bought a certain amount of power, and they were finally able to sneak into the palace in the name of performing arts. And for this assassination, they also specially invited a rare master like the Tsing Yi man to support.
Every step of the way was well planned. As long as the brothers at the door can stop it for a moment, they can be done.
I didn't expect to kill Qi Hao's variable halfway, and a prince would have such amazing martial arts attainments.
As soon as the guards stepped into the main hall, the man in Tsing Yi had already judged that things were no longer possible.
There are also masters among the guards, in this kind of deep palace inner courtyard, once surrounded by heavy internal guards, even if he is in his best state, I am afraid that he will not have a chance to escape, not to mention that he is still tired from fighting for a long time and his skills are exhausted, if he doesn't leave, I'm afraid he will never be able to leave, he is different from the dead soldiers who came in today to assassinate, and he didn't plan to get out alive when he came in.
As soon as he thought of this, the man in Tsing Yi suddenly let out a long roar, and in an instant, the sword light was sheng, and it rolled towards the two of them like a stormy wave, forcing the two to retreat again and again. The Tsing Yi man's sword turned and waved, and the sword left his palm like thunder and lightning and went straight to Qi Long, and at the same time, his body rose quickly, and his hands slapped a palm, surging with strength, slamming into the top of the temple, and then "booming" and crashing through the sky wall.
Seeing the sword of the man in Tsing Yi flying, Su Mi had been waiting for such an opportunity, she stepped forward and pulled Qi Long and blocked Qi Long's body. The sword came in an instant, Su Mi's body was slightly wrong, and with a "ding......" sound, the sword was stabbing on the jasper in her chest.
Su Mi only felt a chill in his chest, and a tingling pain came, the sword was extremely powerful, and it actually stabbed the hard piece of beautiful jade, and the momentum did not stop, and it stabbed his chest again. Immediately afterwards, Su Mi was pushed backwards by the power of this sword, and fell into Qi Long's arms.
Seeing the departure of the man in Tsing Yi, several assassins instantly understood that tonight's action was about to come to naught, and one by one they were like crazy, rushing towards Qi Hao and the two like fierce tigers, and they no longer cared about themselves at all, so that they all ended up in the same way of playing.
Qi Hao and the eunuch master were already seriously injured, where could they resist, they retreated again and again, and in an instant, the master of the inner eunuch died under the chaotic knife, and Qi Hao was about to retreat to Qi Long's side, but at this time, Mu Qinghan still led someone to catch up. The situation was immediately reversed, and even though the assassins were all fierce and fearless to death, they were quickly cleaned up by the guards.
Qi Hao, who was about to run out of oil and the lamp was dry, fell to the ground heavily, he didn't even have the strength to stand up, and a wry smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, Qi Hao, Qi Hao, you have always been conceited and have excellent martial arts, and it is difficult to have opponents, but today you can see what a real master is, you are too underestimated in the world.
Since he learned martial arts, he had never experienced such a life-and-death battle, which completely exhausted his strength. He knew very well that although he was fighting the enemy empty-handed just now, the man in Tsing Yi was not a weapon in his hand, and he took advantage of the large number of people, if it was about martial arts, after all, the man in Tsing Yi was slightly better than him.
Thankfully, the man in Tsing Yi obviously valued his life more than this assassination mission, and if he didn't want his life and resolutely prioritized Qi Long's life, he would probably be in danger just now.
At this time, Qi Long, the son of Great Qi Tianzi, was stunned to hold Su Mi, who was sent into his arms by the power of that sword, his face was completely stunned, until the guards rushed forward, he reacted, looked down at Su Mi, Su Mi's chest oozed blood, and soon dyed the white bandeau red, Qi Long exclaimed: "Imperial Doctor!" Quickly pass on the doctor, pass on the doctor!! ”
Su Mi tried to concentrate, but her eyes seemed to be covered by something, she was dizzy, and her vision began to blur. I just feel that the strength of my whole body is being lost. She looked at Qi Long in a daze, and said softly: "Your Majesty ......" The eyes were soft and poignant, full of affection, Qi Long only felt heartache.
Su Mi suddenly felt funny, he gambled so hard, what if he lost? What if you just die?
Her eyes crossed Qi Long's pale and concerned face, and looked behind, the long red curtain sprinkled with gold was still hanging firmly on the beam, and the gilded characters of "Long live my emperor" were half red with blood, which was extremely strange and vivid.
I hope she doesn't just die, she doesn't want to act in front of others at the last moment of her life, Su Mi laughed self-deprecatingly, but the smile didn't reach the corner of her mouth, and she fell into boundless darkness.
