Chapter 269: Where Don't We Meet in Life
The fate of the world is so wonderful, and it is so full of surprises.
Whether it was Xia Sheng or Meng Qi, they didn't expect to meet each other again in the here and now.
It has been a few months since the farewell outside Luoyang City.
But this situation is like going back in time, and then it comes to an abrupt end.
Frozen in the moment when the two first met.
At that time, Meng Qi was in a life and death crisis because of the failure of the mission, and he was about to die.
At that time, Xia Sheng happened to pass by her side, and like those well-known heroes in the story, he saved her from the pain of life and death, giving her new hope.
The fourth of the seven laws of the killer: you must never owe a favor to a stranger.
If you owe it and you don't pay it back, you can't do anything else.
So Meng Qi followed Xia Sheng all the way into Luoyang.
During this period, due to the internal strife in the adjudication department, under various coincidences, Meng Qi became the most critical winner of that battle, and he should have repaid the favor owed to Xia Sheng.
Therefore, after that, Meng Qi has always seemed preoccupied and uneasy.
Because she knew that she would soon leave her father-in-law.
Finally, when she learned the news that Pingnanhou's daughter was about to enter Beijing, she walked out of the Weining Marquis Mansion without hesitation and launched a second attack on the eldest lady of the Xue family.
The fifth of the seven laws of the killer: once you take on a mission, you must not give up halfway!
It's a pity that Meng Qi was still defeated by Tang Xixi's methods after all, and she was defeated again, if you calculate it carefully, it was her second mission and the second failure.
Today, it's the third time.
Even if you look at the entire killer world. Such an earth-shattering record of crying ghosts and gods must be unprecedented and unprecedented.
A killer failed three missions in a row.
But she turned out to be alive.
If none of this can be called a miracle, then there are no miracles in the world.
But in fact, Meng Qi was able to escape the favor of death three times and twice, not relying on miracles, but on one person.
Xia Sheng.
Meng Qi failed three times.
Xia Sheng saved her three times.
And it's more thrilling every time.
Each time is more costly.
The first time the two met. Xia Sheng just did it casually, because he recognized the Wind Suppression Blade in Meng Qi's hand, and he was sure that this killer was not simple, he just wanted to form a good relationship with the other party and ask for a favor.
In fact, Meng Qi finally repaid Xia Sheng's kindness with Cheng Liran's life.
But the second time it didn't go so well.
In order to save Meng Qi that day, Xia Sheng was severely injured by Tang Xixi, not to mention that he almost missed such an important thing for the Qin family, if it weren't for the fact that he finally took out the hairpin left by his mother. I'm afraid that Tang Xixi would have been killed with a sword as an assassin accomplice!
It turns out that since the moment he rescued Meng Qi, Xia Sheng was often accompanied by endless troubles.
For example, now.
Xia Sheng infiltrated the Han Mansion today in order to avoid Pei Yuan's entanglement, it can be said that he has exhausted all the organs and used everything he can, but at the last moment, he encountered Meng Qi's third mission failure.
Meng Qi made such a big disturbance in the mansion. If it was said that it did not attract the attention of the garrison of Jinling City, it was absolutely impossible.
So naturally. It will also attract Pei Yuan.
For Xia Sheng, the best choice at this time is to either stay away from this place as soon as possible, or continue to lie dormant in place.
The former is the safest.
The latter is another risky move.
But on the contrary, Xia Sheng did not choose either path.
Because he can't choose that.
It was impossible for him to watch Meng Qi have an accident!
So Xia Sheng still came out from under the cover of the rockery and saved Meng Qi. With a wave of the long sword in his hand, he immediately tore off a corner at the edge of the night and fell towards the northwest corner of this magnificent mansion.
There was the eye of the entire Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing Heart Array.
The moment Meng Qi triggered the formation, Xia Sheng had already seen through the key points of this formation!
Rumble!
Dust and smoke whistled from the sky, splashing three feet of frost. In an instant, clusters of fires were lit in more than a dozen places in the house, causing screams and cries.
However, the nearly 100 government soldiers on the ground did not seem panicked at all, and at the moment when Xia Sheng swung his sword, dozens of sharp arrows galloped towards him, and there were even pieces of sword light and axe shadows shrouded him!
Xia Sheng didn't want to fight with them, holding Meng Qi in one hand and wielding the Night Shadow Sword in the other, with Haoran righteousness as the vanguard, he was born in front of him and split a way of life, and the two pairs of wings behind him trembled rapidly, and he was ready to flee away.
However, at this time, a dull voice suddenly exploded in Xia Sheng's ears.
"What, my friend ruined my mansion, are you going to leave as soon as you say go?"
Hearing this, Xia Sheng's heart suddenly tightened, his waist twisted, and he retreated three feet sharply behind the side, and at the same time, he waved a dark meaning at the tip of the sword.
"Snort...... Sneer......"
A scalp-tinging corrosive sound sounded quietly in the dark night, and a gap was suddenly pierced in the mist wrapped in the evil aura, and a flaming ice blade galloped in, and in an instant, it came to Xia Sheng three inches in front of him!
Xia Sheng's pupils suddenly shrank, as he recognized what it was.
The number one divine soldier in the hidden weapon rankings: Away from the Fire Ice Blade!
In a hurry, Xia Sheng's reaction was also extremely fast, and he didn't have time to think about it at all, so he directly raised his hand and used the Night Shadow Sword to meet him.
"Bell!"
A crisp sound of golden stone breaking rang out, and then looked at the Night Shadow Sword in Xia Sheng's hand, which had been broken into two!
At the same time, Xia Sheng's figure also retreated sharply, and his face was no longer calm at the beginning, but full of surprise.
"Who are you going to assassinate this time?"
At this moment, not to mention Meng Qi, even Xia Sheng found that something was wrong.
Or rather, he was also deceived by the ordinariness of the mansion's appearance at first.
It stands to reason that in this small Jinling City, no matter how much the dragon and crouching tiger are hidden, it is impossible to hide such a master.
Not only has he set up a large array of ten thousand arrows piercing his heart in the mansion, but he also has a secret weapon such as the Fire Xuanbing Blade in his hand!
Who is the owner of this house?
At this time, although Meng Qi was seriously injured, he remained awake for the time being. Hearing this question, Deen Gong immediately replied: "Yes, it is a businessman named Han Kun." ”
Xia Sheng frowned, knowing that he couldn't ask anything from Meng Qi's mouth, because no matter how he looked at it, the person who used the Fire Separation Ice Blade just now. It can never be just an ordinary businessman!
But at the same time, in Xia Sheng's heart, a guess suddenly arose.
Hanfu ......
Han Kun......
Good at hidden weapons and formations......
Could it be that it is the Han family among the nine great families of the Dajin Dynasty!
However, Han Jiaming is far away in Jiangzhou in the south, how can he appear in Jinling City?
For a while, Xia Sheng had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he couldn't grasp the key line, so he could only flee first. Seek something else.
Thinking of this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but speak, and said loudly: "Entering the mansion today is really a helpless move, and I inadvertently collided with the formation in the mansion, which is a pure misunderstanding, and I hope the master's family will forgive me." ”
However, answer Xia Sheng's. But it was a cold silver needle like a bleak rain.
Rainstorm pear flower needle!
Seeing this, Xia Sheng knew that today's affairs could not be good. He no longer cared about whether Pei Yuan would find out his whereabouts, so he simply relentlessly and inspired thousands of poor mulberry blue shadows from his body, facing the sharp needles head-on.
Sneer......
The rainstorm pear blossom needle submerged into the body of the poor mulberry, and immediately pierced its branches with holes, however. With Poor Sana's almost incomprehensible healing ability, almost in the blink of an eye, he became as good as he was before, and it seemed that he had not been hurt by it in the slightest.
Followed by. Xia Sheng shouted violently, and threw the half-night ghost sword in his hand towards the depths of the night.
At the same time, there was also the same piece of silver needle cold light, which flew out of the poor mulberry's body upside down and burst back!
Give somebody a taste of his own medicine!
Xia Sheng's secret method was unexpected by the other party, and in a hurry, the second Flame Xuan Ice Blade made a move, and at the same time, he was finally forced out of shape by his own Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle.
The next moment, a middle-aged man with a face like a red date and a robe like snow appeared in front of Xia Sheng.
It is the owner of this mansion, Han Kun.
"Who are you, why did you make my Han family's meteors all over the sky!"
Xia Sheng smiled and didn't answer, and said: "I said, I didn't have any malice when I entered the mansion this time, everything was just a misunderstanding, if you insist on fighting, I will naturally accompany you, but your mansion, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it." ”
The corners of Han Kun's eyes twitched slightly, but he suddenly sneered: "What a big breath, I want you to open your eyes and see clearly, what is the real meteor in the sky!"
As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind suddenly hit from the sky, puffing up Han Kun's robe fiercely, he raised his hands, his eyes were as cold as the stars and moon, and he looked at the two intruders in front of him, with awe-inspiring murderous intent.
"Whoever offends my Han Mansion will die!"
With Han Kun's loud shout, his hands suddenly pressed down, and an incomparably majestic force suddenly fell from the air, like a stormy wave, and suddenly slapped towards Xia Sheng.
At the same time, the stars in the sky seem to be attracted by it, and the brilliance is magnificent, setting off those faint green points of light that are as poignant as they are, shining brightly.
Peacock Feather!
In one day, it is an honor to see the three famous secret weapons in the world, and it is also a sign of death.
If Meng Qi was the only one here today, then even if she was able to retreat from the Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing Heart Array before, at this time, there would be no way to escape Han Kun's interception.
But fortunately, now by her side, there is Xia Sheng.
Facing the blue stars that fell from the sky, Xia Sheng's face became a little solemn, and then he suddenly asked Meng Qi a question.
"How many have you recovered?"
Meng Qi took a deep breath, quietly pulled out the poor mulberry branch on his waist, and responded softly: "Sancheng." ”
Xia Sheng nodded and said concisely, "I'll cover you." ”
"Good. ”
At the same time that Meng Qi's word "good" came out, Xia Sheng's figure had already moved.
The Night Shadow Sword he had obtained in the Academy's Divine Weapon Pavilion had been broken, and the Stygian Banner and Haoran Sword had suffered extremely serious losses in order to block Pei Yuan before, and they were embarrassed to use it a lot.
But he still has Dijiang, and a third sword.
This sword is more ancient than the Night Shadow Sword, and more breathless than the Haoran Sword, although it is not regarded as a divine weapon, it is a sword with a great reputation.
Because its previous generation master was the commander of the Imperial Judgment Division, Huai'an!
Yes, it's Huai'an's Floating Sword!
Since Xia Sheng arrived in Luoyang, he had never used this sword, because the capital was the lair of the Ruling Division, and if he rashly used the Floating Life Sword, it would be easy for the people of the Judgment Division to find out, thus linking him to Huai'an's death.
But this time when he went south, Xia Sheng brought the Floating Life Sword with him, just in case, just in case, just to deal with a difficult situation like this moment!
How can you be young for a long time, don't hesitate to get drunk and laugh.
This sword is not the Haoran Sword that Xia Sheng is best at, but the Ling Tian Sword with a wider range of sword intent and is more suitable for dealing with meteors in the sky!
Moreover, this was not a simple Ling Tian Sword, because the scorching flames attached to it were the supreme spiritual skill of Di Jiang - the scorching sun!
In an instant, Tianhuo and Youchen met, and there were countless people in the world, and the beauty of the purple and red was intoxicating.
Xia Sheng stood proudly in the midst of ten thousand fires, looking at Han Kun's gaze as if he was looking at a dead man.
He's already given him a chance.
It's a pity that he didn't cherish it.
The next moment, before Han Kun could understand how Xia Sheng could resist thousands of peacock feathers as a person, a chill that made his scalp tingle invade his heart.
It was a real chill.
With a heartfelt despair.
A flash of blood reflected in the sharp tenacity, pierced his heart, and poked out of his chest in horror.
Han Kun lowered his head, looked at the three-foot Qingfeng on his chest, and wanted to turn his head to look at the person behind him, but he lost the last of his strength, his body became weak, and the whole person fell upside down towards the ground.
"Head of the house!"
The family members and attendants in the mansion, who witnessed this scene, cried hoarsely and hurried towards the place where Han Kun fell.
Meng Qi drew out the long sword in his hand in a dashing manner, and was about to maintain the demeanor of an assassin, but Xia Sheng grabbed the placket of his clothes, and said continuously: "What are you doing in a daze, go quickly!"
When the words fell, Xia Sheng took Meng Qi to rush out of the Han Mansion as quickly as possible, this time because the formation in the mansion was destroyed and Han Kun died, but they did not encounter too many obstacles, and they came to the long street quite smoothly.
However, what Xia Sheng feared most finally happened.
When he saw the old man of the Pei family with an eager smile on his face, holding Kang Wuwei's old fox in one hand and a little girl who looked to be eight or nine years old in the other, Xia Sheng knew that he couldn't run.
Pei Yuan finally found this place.
And before he could escape, they blocked him.
So Xia Sheng could only smile bitterly and shook his head: "Isn't this Mr. Pei, it's really, it's a coincidence." ”
Pei Yuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, what a coincidence......"
However, before Pei Yuan's words were finished, his eyes fell on Meng Qi beside Xia Sheng, and a glimmer of light quietly flashed in his eyes.
