Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 inforeadx;? Shangguan Xiu turned sideways, using his body as much as possible to hold the oncoming projectile, and when the rebels had a volley, he broke off, stomped on the ground with one foot, and shot into the depths of the alley with the wind shadow.

As soon as he walked, the rebels in front of him were all knocked out, Shangguan Xiu rushed more than ten meters away, and also crashed into a passage more than ten meters long in the crowd of rebels.

After stabilizing his body, the Mo knife immediately swung forward, and the wind blade swept out overwhelmingly, and the rebels in front couldn't dodge, and there was no room to dodge, and they were blown down by the wind blade.

Shangguan Xiu exerted all his strength to drill into the depths of the alley, and rushed through a bloody road among the rebels and killed them.

Outside the crowd, he rose into the air again, if he was in the small alley, he would not have received many attacks, but as soon as he flew into the air, he immediately became the target of the nearby rebels.

The sound of shooting sounded below, and Shangguan Xiu, who flew into the air for the second time, was once again beaten down by the rebels' fire, he secretly gritted his teeth and continued to sweep into the depths of the alley,

Rushing all the way, he couldn't remember how many waves of rebels he had killed, and gradually, even he was running dizzy in the alley, unable to distinguish between southeast and northwest.

Just when Shangguan Xiu felt that his lungs were about to explode, a courtyard door not far in front of him opened, and a person leaned out of the door, recruited Shangguan Xiu again and again, and shouted in a low voice: "Your Highness, this way, come over here,"

Shangguan Xiu glanced at it, didn't hesitate for a moment, ran over quickly with Luo Guang, flashed sideways into the door, and as he came in, the person who opened the door immediately closed the door, tilted his ears sideways, and leaned on the door panel to listen,

"Shangguan Xiu ran this way," "Catch him," "Capture Shangguan Xiu alive, His Royal Highness will be rewarded," "Capture Shangguan Xiu alive......"

The roars outside came and went, and the man listened for a while, then turned back, and was about to speak, when the cold tip of the knife was already on his neck,

The man trembled in fright, quickly raised his hands, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't misunderstand, the villain Xue Le is a disciple of the Shura Hall,"

Shangguan Xiu's sharp gaze fell on his face, seeing that he looked calm when he spoke, and his gaze at himself did not flicker, he turned his wrist and withdrew the Mo knife,

Xue Le sighed, quickly took out a wooden card from his shirt, and handed it to Shangguan Xiu respectfully, the latter did not answer, only glanced down, it was indeed the brand of the Shura Hall Gang, and the name on it was Xue Le,

He held aloft the hall card, knelt on his knees, kowtowed forward, and said: "There are wives and children in the villain's house, although they saw the letter cannon summoned by the hall, but they did not dare to go, and I ask Your Highness to forgive your sins,"

Shangguan Xiu's sharp gaze softened, he waved his hand and said, "Brother Xue, get up, I'm here, just rest for a while and leave, I won't cause trouble to you and your family,"

Hearing this, Xue Le's eyes turned red, and he said in a trembling voice: "The villain is as timid as a mouse, and in times of crisis, he doesn't dare to come forward, and he deserves death,"

Shangguan Xiu sighed lightly, stepped forward, pulled Xue Le up from the ground, and said, "It is Xiu's fault to put tens of thousands of brothers in Tangkou in a desperate situation, what is the crime of Brother Xue?"

In the case of rebels all over the city, the disciples of the Shura Hall who can stand up regardless of life and death are worthy of respect, and those who have concerns and dare not go to war, they are not heinous, Shangguan Xiu cannot ask all the personnel of the Shura Hall to leave everything and sacrifice everything for the sake of the hall.

After Xue Le got up, he hurriedly waved his hand to Shangguan Xiu and said, "Your Highness, hurry up, please come to the inner room,"

Shangguan Xiu took Luo Guang and entered the main room, and as soon as he walked in, he saw a young woman standing inside, holding a baby who was only a few months old and waiting to be fed in her arms.

Seeing Shangguan Xiu, who looked like a bloody person, coming in from outside, the young woman was so frightened that she took two steps back, her face turned pale, and she stammered, "Le ...... Brother Le, he ...... He ......"

"Don't be rude, this is Your Highness," Xue Le glared at the young woman, and Shangguan Xiu smiled at the young woman and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll leave in a moment," As he spoke, he scattered the spirit armor on his body, and at the same time slowly put Luo Guang on the ground,

What makes Shangguan Xiu's heart like a knife is that where is Luo Guang still breathing now, he has at least more than 20 bullets on his body, and one of them has pierced his forehead.

Seeing Shangguan Xiu kneeling beside the corpse in a daze, with a sad face, Xue Le cautiously asked, "Your Highness, is this ......?"

"Luo Guang, the commander of the First Legion, he is, sacrificed his life for the country," Shangguan Xiu said in a hoarse and low voice,

Xue Le heard this, without saying a word, knelt on his knees, kowtowed to the corpse, Shangguan Xiu slowly closed his eyes, even if he had tried his best, he still failed to save him after all, he was silent for a moment, and said: "Brother Xue,"

"Your Highness,"

"General Luo's body must not fall into the hands of the rebels," a loyal minister like Luo Guang to Tang Ling, once he falls into the hands of the rebels, he will definitely not end well, not only will he be used by the rebels to make a big fuss and deter the people, but in the end, he will be crushed and scattered, and he will die without a place to bury.

"Your Highness means,"

"I see that the open space in your courtyard is not small, I want to bury General Luo here temporarily, and one day, when Your Majesty returns to Beijing, I will take out General Luo's body and bury it,"

Xue Le didn't think about it, and immediately nodded in response: "The villain will do it," and the young woman who spoke with him was also the young woman, who frowned and said: "How can it be, burying the dead in the courtyard of my house is too unlucky,"

When Shangguan Xiu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but darken, for the heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country, is there anything more sad about being abandoned by the people of his country, without waiting for Shangguan Xiu to speak, Xue Le's face was as gloomy as the bottom of the pot, he stood up and reprimanded angrily: "General Luo is the pillar of the Great Loyalty and Righteousness of the Country, and being able to be temporarily buried in the cold house is a blessing that the Xue family has only cultivated for several lifetimes, and where does the bad luck come from," After reprimanding the young woman, he hurriedly said to Shangguan Xiu: "Foolish woman's opinion, please don't be surprised,"

Shangguan Xiu waved his hand disapprovingly, burying the dead in his own home, it would indeed make people feel uncomfortable, and the young woman's thoughts were easy to understand, he said softly: "Sister-in-law is willing to contain the body of General Luo, she is a hero of the Wind Country, and when Your Majesty returns to Beijing, there will be heavy thanks,"

Hearing that the emperor would give a reward, the young woman's attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn, and she hurriedly smiled and said: "What does Your Highness say, what is the reward or not, my husband does things for His Majesty and His Royal Highness, and it is not for reward,"

Her words made Xue Le next to him feel ashamed of himself, but he was helpless to take her.

Shangguan Xiu didn't say anything more, picked up Luo Guang's body, and walked into the courtyard, he stabbed the Mo knife into the ground, and with a sound of sand, the entire knife body was not underground, only the handle of the knife was exposed.

He clenched the handle of the knife, scratched on the ground, and drew a long strip, and then, Mo Dao pulled it outward, and a large piece of long strip of ground was dug out by him, and then, he put Luo Guang's body flat at the bottom of the pit, closed his eyes, stood still for a few seconds, and put the large piece of ground back into the pit, he walked to it, stepped on it a few times, and flattened the pit and restored it to its original state.

His series of actions were done in one go, not to mention that the young woman was dumbfounded, even Xue Le, who had passed through the Shura Hall and was already well-informed, had never seen such a bury person, it was too fast, from digging the pit to filling it, it didn't even take a minute,

He was just about to open his mouth to praise, Shangguan Xiu's body suddenly shook twice, leaned against the courtyard wall, and slowly slid to the ground, Xue Le was startled, hurriedly stepped forward, and asked with concern: "Your Highness...... What's wrong,"

"It's okay, I'm just a little tired, I'll just rest for a while," Shangguan Xiu's physical strength has long been overdrawn, and he still has many injuries on his body, and now he still has several pieces of shrapnel stuck in his back,

"The villain helped His Highness to the inner room to rest......" Before Xue Le's words were finished, he heard the sound of slamming the door outside the courtyard gate, and at the same time someone shouted loudly: "Open the door, open the door, open the door quickly,"

Xue Le secretly screamed badly, looked around in a panic, and saw the firewood room not far away, he helped Shangguan Xiu, and said while walking towards the firewood room: "Your Highness is wronged, first go to the firewood room to hide for a while,"

Shangguan Xiu has no opinion, no matter where he goes, as long as he is allowed to rest for a while, he can recover the strength to fight the enemy again, Xue Le sent Shangguan Xiu into the firewood room, there is a hidden cellar in the firewood room, which is not deep, but the mouth of the cellar is very hidden, under the firewood pile,

After settling Shangguan Xiu, as soon as Xue Le walked out of the firewood room, the courtyard gate was kicked open by the rebels outside, and a large number of rebels poured in from the outside.

Seeing Xue Le and his wife standing in the courtyard, their faces full of panic, none of the rebels spoke, and automatically and consciously dispersed and searched everywhere.

A rebel leader walked in from outside, he looked around, and finally, his eyes fell on Xue Le and his wife, and he asked slowly, "Shangguan Xiuke is here,"

"Up...... Shangguan Xiu, ...... How could His Royal Highness be in the villain's house, don't frame the villain," as he spoke, Xue Le pulled the young woman and knelt on her knees.

Xue Le's home is not big, and there are no furnishings at home, and the people who live in the slums of Xicheng cannot be too rich, and the rebels who searched everywhere have returned, and when they came to the leader, they shook their heads, saying that they had not found Shangguanxiu's whereabouts,

"It's strange, some brothers said that Shangguan Xiu disappeared here, can he still go to heaven and earth," As he spoke, the rebel leader's gaze fell on Xue Le again, and he said with a sneer: "Now, the demon girl is no longer the emperor, and Shangguan Xiu is not a prince of the country, but a wanted criminal by the imperial court, you should know what kind of crime is to be committed by harboring the imperial court, it is a capital crime of the nine clans and the whole family,"

When the young woman heard this, her face turned pale in an instant, and Xue Le's body trembled, and she stammered: "Master Jun, the villain will never dare to harbor the important criminals of the court, the villain will not dare, the master of the army will be clear, please be aware of the ...... of the army."

"Hmph," the rebel leader snorted coldly, looked at the rebels around him, and asked, "All places have been searched, and nothing has been missed,"

"I've checked it all and nothing has been missed,"

"Well, go elsewhere and continue to search, Shangguan Xiu is injured, he must not be able to run far, he is hiding in this area,"

"Yes," the rebels agreed, and they left, leaving only a few cronies at the leader's side.

The rebel leader turned his gaze, looked at the young woman beside Xue Le, and then at the baby in her arms, and asked, "How old is the child?"

"Master Huijun, it's been less than eight months......" Before Xue Le's words were finished, the rebel leader had already kicked him in the face and scolded angrily: "Lao Tzu didn't ask you,"

As he spoke, he raised his hand to hook the young woman's chin, looked at the young woman's delicate face, and asked with a smile: "The little lady hasn't said yet, how old is the child?"

The young woman's little face was full of horror, and she said in a trembling voice, "Only...... It's only been more than seven months ......"

"It's only over seven months old, so I still need to breastfeed,"

"Positive...... Exactly ......"

"It just so happens that Lao Tzu and his brothers have been fighting with eagles and dogs all morning, and they are thirsty and tired, and now, borrow the little lady's milk to drink," After speaking, before Xue Le and the young woman could react, the leader of the rebel army had already picked up the young woman and walked towards the back room.
