Chapter 300: On the City Gate, in the Deep Palace (I)
The iron hooves are flying, the yellow sand is rolling, and the red earthly waves are stirred, showing that it is indispensable.
The horse is a good horse, tall and long-legged, fat and strong, roaring like thunder, galloping like the wind; At the end of the man's strong suit, he wore a sword and a sword, his demeanor was fierce, his eyes were shiny, and his breath was calm. Such a horse, even if it is only one horse, is rare on weekdays. But now, there are twelve horsemen at the same time. Although the number of people is not very large, the momentum is strong, but it seems to be like a thousand troops. So much so that everyone paid attention to it along the road.
Twelve horsemen and horses rushed along the official road and rushed straight to Lin'an City. Kankan was about to reach the city gate, and the first young man suddenly whispered softly, clamped the horse's belly suddenly, and pulled the reins back hard. Under the crotch, the snow Wu Hu "Rhythm ~" hissed continuously, and snorted and retracted the four hooves. Behind him, the other twelve horsemen also reined in their horses. One of them, a tall and thin black-robed man with sparkling eyes, asked, "Young Gang Master, what's wrong?" ”
The young man raised his whip and pointed at the head of the wall, saying, "Look, what is that?" The rest of the crowd looked up at the same time, and they all were taken aback. I saw two heads hanging on the tower of the city gate. The first level of face is cleaned, and the eyebrows and facial features are clearly visible.
One is about fifty years old, with a clear appearance and three long beards, but he looks quite bookish. It's just that the nose is slightly hooked, and it looks a little ruthless. The other is only about 20, with large ears and small eyes because of the single eyelids, which is a typical Jurchen appearance.
Under these two heads, a white cloth hung from each of them. On the cloth, several large characters are written in thick pen and heavy ink. The cloth under the head of the Jurchen people reads, "Jin Guoyu Youwan Yan A Guda Sun Wan Yan Liang". Under the other head is "traitor Qin Hui".
Two human heads hung high above the city gate, which should have been very eye-catching. But at this moment, the pedestrians who came and went under the city gate were afraid of it like snakes and scorpions, and they could not avoid it. Even if you have to walk through here
Among them, there was an old man, whose hair was quite gray, but his muscles were as strong as iron, and his speech was like a bell. He opened his voice and said loudly: "When the prime minister Qin Hui and the envoy of the Jin State are finished? Make no mistake, right? How is this possible? ”
Another tall and thin man said in a condensed voice: "This Wanyan Liang is a Jurchen Tartar, naturally none of us have ever seen it." But Qin Hui is not fake. Two years ago, the helper ordered me to come to Lin'an to do something, and I saw this traitor with my own eyes. There's no going wrong with him, it's definitely him. ”
A man with a mighty demeanor and a long sword at his waist frowned and said, "Strange, how could these two people die?" ”
A man with a scar on his face said coldly: "What's so strange about this? As long as you are human, you will definitely die. Unless the Buddha is immortal, who can be an exception? ”
A monk next to him, dressed in a blood-red robe with a gloomy appearance, shook his head and said, "This is different. What is Qin Hui's identity, are we still unclear? Isn't it strange that a powerful minister like him, who covers the sky with one hand, doesn't even dare to move Zhao Gou easily, but he died suddenly? ”
The other person said: "Qin Hui is too majestic, and he is already above the human monarch. How can an emperor in the world tolerate such a courtier? Therefore, Qin Hui's death is very likely to be done by Zhao Gou's secret dispatch master. ”
A man next to him with a big red wine gourd tied to his waist took the gourd from his waist, pulled out the plug and put it to his mouth and poured two mouthfuls of it, then shook his head and said: "Qin Hui is a spy put back by the Jurchens, and everyone in the world knows the way." Zhao Gou's soft egg has always been afraid of gold like a tiger, even if he is dissatisfied with Qin Hui, how dare he attack him? What's more, now even the envoy sent by the Jin State to negotiate peace with Zhao Gou, the emperor's grandson Wanyan Liang has been killed. Zhao Gou's soft egg, can he have this guts? ”
A man wearing iron armor and dressed like a general on the battlefield said: "If it wasn't Zhao Gou, then it must be the work of the heroes on the rivers and lakes." But Qin Hui was protected by first-class masters such as the Seven Evils of the Tang Sect, the Three Cripples of the Great Opening and Closing, and the Seven Absolute Divine Swords. Beside the Jurchen Tartar, there were also four Nine Guards from the Supreme Mansion of the Jin Kingdom as bodyguards. Who has the ability to kill the two of them? ”
A man who was carrying three swords on his body at the same time smiled and said: "The Seven Evils of the Tang Sect, the Three Cripples of the Great Opening and Closing, and the Seven Absolute Divine Swords, what are these?" Not to mention our Li Da gang leader, even if our Liu Wu is in charge, he can easily destroy them. ”
Another person said, "Why do you want to help the master out of the horse? Just our brothers, are we afraid of anything? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone said yes. At the beginning of speaking, the old man added: "Then again, although these two human heads have been processed, it seems that they have been hanging on this city gate for more than a day or two. If it weren't for Zhao Gou, then how could the government actually let these two heads show the public here? Isn't that a clear slap in the face of the court? Is it ......?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed color at the same time. It must be known that Lu Dao can have the strength to form the Tang Sect's Seven Evils, the Great Opening and Closing Three Cripples, the Seven Absolute Divine Sword, and the Nine Soldiers of the Jin Kingdom, and the defense system like an iron wall is completely broken and defeated, and then the heads of Qin Hui and Wan Yanliang are publicly hung for public display, which is definitely not something that ordinary masters can do. And the person who can do such a big thing, his martial arts and courage are by no means inferior to his own gang leader and manager, which is really terrifying and terrifying.
What's more, according to common sense, how can the government tolerate these two heads hanging on the city gatehouse? Someone was going to be sent to take the head. But looking at the way it looks now, the two heads have been hanging on it for at least half a day, and they are still hanging well, and no one pays attention to them at all. The soldiers guarding the gate above and below the city wall all turned a blind eye to it. What is this for? Are they jealous and afraid? Who to be afraid of? Afraid of what?
The situation is so strange that the heart of the straight man trembles. As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, it will be a demon. Thinking of the real purpose of his group coming to Lin'an this time, the expressions between the eyebrows of the twelve horsemen and horses suddenly became cold. The old man raised his eyes to look at the young man at the head and said in a low voice, "Young helper, this matter seems to be not simple. The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings. ”
The young man nodded vigorously and said, "Yes." Let's not delay any longer and hurry into the city. He raised his whip and whipped it on his snow-treading buttocks. The horses were in pain, raised their hooves, and swept towards the gates like a whirlwind. Behind him, the rest of the crowd followed. Walking through the street, I saw a pair of soldiers patrolling everywhere in the city, and the atmosphere was very tense and unusual.
After a short time, the twelve horsemen left the street and walked to the side path. The place is so narrow that you can't ride a horse. Everyone turned over and jumped down, holding the reins. One of the horse-faced men looked down for a secret note. In a moment, he looked up and shouted, "Found it." Follow the instructions of the secret mark first, and lead the way. After three turns and two turns, I turned into a remote alley. There is only one house in this alley. The gate is painted black, giving it a low-key look. The boy stepped forward and grabbed the knocker three times, then paused, knocked three more times, lowered the knocker, and waited.
It was only half an hour before there was a sound of light footsteps behind the door, followed by a soft sound of "squeak~". The door opened with a thin slit, revealing a delicate little face behind the crack in the door. Although he has bright eyes and bright teeth and a delicate appearance, he is dressed as a man. is not only dressed in men's clothing, but also dressed up in the six doors of the yamen. Women wear men's clothes and still work in the six doors, and those who meet these two conditions at the same time are only the goddess Ji Yaohua and several of her fellow sisters. Now the person who came to open the door was Ji Yaohua's junior sister Xinying.
Xin Ying clearly recognized the people in front of her. When she saw everyone gathered outside the door, she was stunned at first, and then she felt overjoyed. Said: "But I can wait for you." Come on in. He took two steps back, opened the door, let everyone in, and then closed the door carefully, and invited everyone to the living room to talk.
The exterior of this house looks inconspicuous, but the interior of the house is very spacious, and the furnishings and furnishings are also very elegant and exquisite. At first glance, it seems ordinary, but it can only be seen after careful aftertaste, but it reveals a rich taste everywhere. It's not the kind of nouveau riche who only knows how to spend money indiscriminately and desperately pile up gold and silver, but the real wealth cultivated by a hundred years of Zhongming Ding Food.
The female catcher Kuai Xinying led everyone into the living room to sit down, and went straight back to the back hall to report. A moment later, footsteps were heard. Five or six people walked out from behind the screen. The first person was dressed in a black robe, and his face was like a crown of jade, which was none other than the extermination king Chu Xiangyu. Beside her was the goddess Ji Yaohua, as well as her fellow sisters Ruyi, Xinying, Spring Cicada, Buzz, and Caifly.
Everyone in the hall got up at the same time. The young man at the head clenched his fists and said respectfully: "My nephew has seen Uncle Chu." ”
The King of Extermination waved his hand and smiled, "No courtesy." Hu Chang'an's virtuous nephew, I haven't seen you for three years, and you have grown stronger again. If you want to come, martial arts will also be refined. How is it, your master, my mother, and Mr. Liu are in charge of them, how are they doing? ”
The young man Hu Chang'an hugged his fists and said, "Uncle Tuochu's blessing." Master, Master, and Uncle Liu are all very good. This time, when Lin'an came, the three elders also asked the little nephew to say hello to Uncle Chu and the prince on their behalf. ”
The King of Extermination nodded and said with a smile: "Brother Li and sister-in-law, as well as Manager Liu, have a heart. His gaze swept over the people behind the young man one by one, and he suddenly frowned and asked, "Didn't anyone come to the Eight Heavenly Kings?" ”
Hu Chang'an replied: "Originally, according to Uncle Liu's intention, he wanted to send the four heavenly kings of water, fire, people, and ghosts to Lin'an. It's a pity that something happened temporarily, and they were all stuck, and they couldn't be separated. Therefore, the master mother was in charge, and five uncles were added, and the Xiong Protector, who had recently joined the gang, came over with his little nephew to assist Uncle Chu and the prince in achieving great things. ”
