Chapter 33: The Hanging Mirror

After seeing the person in front of them clearly, Yan Yujin and Xiao Jingrui glanced at each other, and the two took a step back at the same time, and discussed in a whisper: "Who is it?" ”

"I think it's my brother'......"

"What if it's my sister?"

"How long has my sister been gone? Coming back so soon? Isn't it necessary to look into it for a while......"

"That's right, so far away......"

The person who came looked at them with a slight smile, and said softly with a smile: "Ozu, I'm standing far away now, and I'm discussing with you, I don't have any intention of pounceing at all, I should have already shown who I am, right?" ”

Yan Yujin blinked, looked up and down carefully again, and finally put his mind at ease, with a big smile on his face, he rushed over happily, hugged the neck of the person who came and shouted, "Brother Xia Qiu, you are back!" Is the East China Sea fun? ”

An evil smile hooked up on the lips of the visitor, slowly retracted his arms, and encircled Yan Yujin into his arms.

Xiao Jingrui felt a shiver sweep from head to toe, the cold hairs on his back suddenly rose, he involuntarily took two steps back, and shouted: "Yujin run, that is Sister Xia Dong!" ”

It's a pity that this warning came too late, Yan Yujin's whole body stiffened, and when she was about to struggle again, her two arms had already been twisted backwards, and Xia Dong clasped one hand behind her waist, and watched her other hand rise up at an extremely slow speed, fall on her face, and rub it gently.

"Jing Rui......" Yan Yujin said in a trembling voice, "You are unrighteous, why don't you come and save me......"

"Save you?" Xia Dong's gaze swept over and asked softly, "Xiao Rui, are you going to come over to save him?" ”

Xiao Jingrui's head suddenly shook like a rattle.

"Ozu, you ask me if the East China Sea is fun, right? It's a pity that I don't know, because I haven't been there at all," Xia Dong's fingers suddenly exerted force, twisted Yan Yujin's face, and a red fingerprint blurred, Xiao Jingrui felt a pain at the root of his teeth when he looked at it, "Do you know where I went?" It's Binzhou, it's really a poor and barren place, and it's troublesome to investigate, and it took me a lot of effort to find out...... Who brought me such a headache for such a troublesome errand, I want to see it......

"Help-" Yan Yujin only felt a hot pain on his face, and screamed without exaggeration, "I didn't mean to...... Who knew the emperor would send you to ......"

"Do you call for help?" Xia Dong smiled coldly, "Xia Qiu went to the East China Sea, and Xia Chun went to Qingjiang Prefecture to pick up his daughter-in-law, I see who can come to save you." You disobedient boy, go out to play and come back to make trouble for me, don't you think your sister Xia Dong is too idle? If I really don't have anything else to do, I can still train you, is it that when you grow up and your wings are hard, you forget the pain you used to have? ”

Hearing the word training, the two noble sons were a little weak at the same time.

It is said that there is a theory about dog taming, saying that no matter how fierce and fierce the dog is, the reason why it never dares to resist the owner is because when it is still very young, every time it resists the owner, it will be beaten with a wooden stick, because it is too small, so it has never won a fight, and the days of fighting are long, it will form a fixed situation in its mind, thinking that this person is absolutely unable to resist, even if it grows up in the future, the strength and fangs are far from being comparable to the past, but when I see the owner who has trained it, Or will it become docile in no time.

Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin were two of the puppies in that group back then, and Xia Dong was naturally a dog trainer.

The emperors of the Great Liang Kingdom had a direct supervision agency by their side, the Hanging Mirror Division. Known as the Hanging Mirror Envoys, the members were passed down from generation to generation in the form of master and apprentice, and were extremely loyal to the monarch, and always acted only on the emperor's orders to investigate the most important and secret events. Xia Jiang, the leader of the Hanging Mirror Division of the previous generation, accepted a total of three apprentices, Xia Qiu, Xia and Dong were twin siblings, and Xia Chun was not related to them by blood. The three have very different personalities, but they have a deep affection for each other, just like the members of the Shadows of the past. Originally, the duties of the Hanging Mirror Envoy did not include the item of "taming dogs", but I didn't expect that one day 17 years ago, His Majesty the Emperor had a whim, and felt that the children of the family were pampered and pampered, and many of them were not successful, and it was not the blessing of the imperial court, so he opened up a corner in the palace and named it Shuren Yuan, and the boys from five to eleven years old from the officials above the third rank in Kyoto were all sent to the Shuren Courtyard and were honed by the Hanging Mirror Envoy. Xia Chun Xia Qiu is quite gentle, although the supervision is strict, but at least will consider the bearing capacity of this group of little babies, only Xia Dong, who was twenty years old at the time, has just come out of the school, and has a passion to serve the royal family, it is simply a set of her master who trained her directly to train these delicate and tender puppies, and she can hear the screaming of the tree house every day. Poor Yan Yujin had just turned five years old at the time, and his pink makeup was like a jewel, and he was originally a proud and flamboyant little seedling, but within a few days, he was trained to automatically roll up all the leaves like frost when he saw his sister Xia Dong, and the root of this disease has not been cured at all until now.

"Summer ...... Sister Xia Dong ...... "Xiao Jingrui was tortured for a short time, so his symptoms were slightly milder than Yan Yujin, and he said boldly, "Yujin really didn't mean it, we met the pair of complainants on the road, we can't ignore it......"

Xia Dong snorted, and the strength of twisting Yan Yujin's wrist did not decrease, but instead brought his face closer. In fact, in terms of appearance alone, although Xia Dong was born male and female, he can also be called very handsome, because of the relationship between refining internal strength, he looks much younger than his actual age. But for Yan Yujin, who is full of painful memories in his mind, this beautiful face is tantamount to the devil's mask, seeing it approaching him inch by inch, this uncle only feels that his scalp is tingling, and he almost can't help but start screaming.

"Ozu, don't speak, hold me and slowly walk to the official road......" The words as thin as a gossamer drilled into his ears at this time, and the body leaning over became heavy, and the fishy sweet blood also swam into his nose at the same time. Yan Yujin's heart sank, but he quickly stabilized his expression, adjusted the angle of standing without a trace, supported Xia Dong's already somewhat unstable body, and said in a tone of forgiveness: "Sister Xia Dong, don't be angry, when my sister returns to Beijing and pays the errand, I will be punished as much as I want." As he spoke, he took out a hand and grabbed Xia Dong's arm, turned half sideways, and threw Xiao Jingrui a suggestive look.

Xiao Jingrui was stunned, after all, he had some experience in the rivers and lakes, and immediately noticed the abnormality of the situation, although he still maintained his original posture and expression, but his eyes had quickly swiped left and right, and then he held his breath and sensed the surroundings quietly, and sure enough, he felt some faint murderous aura permeating him.

"You kid, you've been sweet since you were a child," Xia Dong smiled, and her neutral face suddenly revealed a woman's charm, "Do you think you can use a delaying tactic?" Don't try to run away if you get caught by me, come with me! ”

"Okay, when do I dare not listen to Sister Xia Dong?" Yan Yujin grinned, lowered his voice and asked quietly, "How are you, can you ride a horse?" ”

Xia Dong smiled and patted his head, his lips gently pursed: "Just go, as long as I don't fall, they don't dare to come out rashly." ”

Xiao Jingrui also led the horse close at this time, his eyes were full of concern, but he didn't dare to speak casually.

"Don't worry, they can't hear this distance," Xia Dong still whispered, "They don't want me to go into the city, maybe they will make a desperate bet...... Prepare for it, too, that there are people in the river and in the woods on the other side......"

The two of them secretly mentioned their true qi, one still pretended to be twisted his arm to support Xia Dong forward, and the other led the mount to deliberately slow down a few steps for them to break off, the three of them slowly moved in the direction of the official road, looking at it from a distance, it was as relaxed as a joke, without a sense of tension.

But Xia Dong's increasingly chaotic breathing and gradually heavy steps announced the deterioration of the situation, Xiao Jingrui looked at the bloody footprints left by the two people in front of him with every move, and knew in his heart that it was not good, so he could only deliberately let the horse's hooves trample the bloodstained blades of grass, just to avoid being noticed by the killers who were hidden behind.

It's a pity that the acumen of a professional killer is always beyond the ordinary, and when there is obviously no omission, a thin whistle whistle suddenly sounded in the dense forest on the other side of the river, and then the branches and leaves shook, and several light gray figures flew out. At the same time, the water column on the originally calm river burst out, and about ten killers dressed in silver water leanings, holding water thorns in their hands, rose into the sky. The two teams met in one place, instantly lined up in a fan shape, and rushed straight towards the three of them.

Without a word, the vicious battle suddenly began. The killers' tricks are not fancy, and their postures are not beautiful, but they are very simple and effective, rushing, stabbing, slashing, slashing, and slashing, each action is not dragged in the mud and water, and only aims to take people's lives. Even Xiao Jingrui, who had experienced the dangerous battles in the rivers and lakes, was taken by that strong killing intent for a while, and his body became quite stagnant, as for Yan Yujin, who had only seen martial arts occasions, of course, it was even more difficult to adapt. In addition, both of them had no blades in their hands, and they dealt with the fierce attacks of several outlaws empty-handed, and they immediately fell behind, if it weren't for the other party's main purpose was summer and winter, I was afraid that they would have hung up red long ago.

In comparison, Xia Dong, who is a hanging mirror envoy, is naturally more old, she basically does not move an inch, and she does not know when there is an extra dagger in her hand. It's a pity that because there was an injury on the body for a long time, after a long time, the follow-up was weak, after blocking a few moves in succession, his feet were weak, his body shook a few times, and he fell to the ground.

Fortunately, after the initial attack, Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin had calmed down. Because I know that most of the people who dare to hunt down and kill even the hanging mirror envoy will not care about the identities of the two of them, not to mention that the other party may not know the identities of the two of them, so under the cross-mindedness, it has increased concentration and moved much more smoothly. One of them is the heir of Tianquan Villa, and the other is a practitioner of the Qianmen Mental Method, and his martial arts are definitely the best among the younger generation, and in the face of such a life-and-death danger, even if he is not for himself, he also wants to fight for his friends to find a way to live, so he does his best and does not spare half of his strength. After stabilizing the position, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder in front of Xia Dong, attacking and defending together, although it was inevitable to hang some knife edges, but they gradually pulled back the scene, and finally succeeded in grabbing two spikes in their hands.

The swordsmanship of Tianquan Villa is famous in the rivers and lakes, and it can almost compete with Huashan, Xiao Jingrui uses thorns as a sword, although it is not too handy, but the power has increased greatly, coupled with the dazzling body of Yan Yujin, the strange moves in summer and winter, the decline has changed in the blink of an eye, and the two sides have fought equally.

After all, the killers are doing dark things, and the highest realm is to hit with one blow, of course, it is not good to get into a fight, not to mention that this place is a suburb of Beijing after all, and the longer the time, the greater the possibility of being bumped into by passers-by. So the whistle sounded again in the dense forest, urgent and short, and the three of them obviously felt that the focus of the offensive had shifted, and began to attack Xiao Yan and the others mainly. Xia Dong took the opportunity to breathe, stroked his chest and took a few steps back, leaving the battle group to breathe and stop the bleeding.

Although the pressure has increased, and there is no summer and winter to make up for the leaks at any time, the cooperation between Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin has gradually improved, and the confidence is getting stronger and stronger.

At this time, the whistle changed again, and the tail tone turned sharply, and the five silver-clothed men pounced, which was actually a suicidal fight. At the same time, the commander in the dense forest appeared in person, with a little water wave, across the narrow river, his body was extremely fast, and he appeared at the scene of the killing in an instant, leading all the other killers, including those who were injured and fell to the ground, all of them outflanked, bypassed the left and right sides of Xiao Yan and the others, and went straight to Xia Dong.

"Sister, be careful!" Yan Yujin shouted urgently, and Xiao Jingrui quickly retreated, trying to rush to Xia Dong's side first. Helpless to be attacked by someone close to him, how could it be so easy to get rid of it, watching a few gray shadows pass over him, cold as ice, mercilessly smearing Xia Dong's body.

"Sister Xia Dong......" In the anxious cries of the two, Xia Dong, who had already been exhausted and paralyzed, suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashed coldly, and his body rolled up like a whirlwind, as if rolling out of the vortex of absorbing people's lives.

This sudden change not only stunned the two nobles, but even the killers were stunned for a moment. However, all this is not over, Xia Dong's sharp body style did not stop at all, as if a sharp sword was unsheathed, and with one move to seal the throat, the palm of the hand between the lightning and stone fire was imprinted on the chest of one of the killers, and went up, neatly removed his chin, and threw his body to the ground and stepped on his feet.

The killers were already in a state of confusion at this time, and seeing that the purpose of the assassination could not be accomplished, they retreated one after another, retreating across the river and back into the dense forest. Xiao Yan and the others had no intention of chasing, so they stopped when they reached the river, turned around and glared at Xia Dong together.

The handsome female hanging mirror made Yang Tian laugh three times, and tapped the captives under her feet with her toes, the long hair scattered on her shoulders fluttered in the wind, her eyes flowed, her attitude was flamboyant, and her voice was very clear: "Thank you for appearing here to help, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch this leader who shrunk his head and tail...... This person's martial arts are not very good, but his light skills are really good, and he is always not close to me along the way, so he is really not easy to grasp...... Hahaha......"

(hmm......... There is still another update in the afternoon...... )
