Chapter 8 Escape from Danger
Lin Zhi took out the sword in his hand and slashed it towards the tiger's neck.
When the tip of the sword was three inches away from the tiger, the sword was no longer in the whereabouts, no matter how hard Lin Zhi tried, the sword statue was fixed there, not moving at all.
The tiger grabbed Zhao Chengqian's body.
Suddenly, in the middle of the air, a woman with hanging sideburns flew horizontally, ran to the tiger, hurriedly slapped her hand on the tiger's head, and said: "You brute, if you don't see you, you will come out to make trouble, and you will not quickly put down the nobleman."
When the tiger heard this, he seemed to understand the appearance of personnel, so he gently spit out Zhao Chengqian's body from his mouth and went up the mountain.
With a wave of the woman's sleeves, Lin Zhi took a few steps back and regained his freedom.
At this time, Zhao Chengqian's face was pale with fright, his bitter gall was almost frightened, and he had already fainted to the ground in a groggy state.
Lin Zhi hurriedly beat his heart and slapped his back before he woke up Zhao Chengqian.
Zhao Chengqian did it while arching his hand and said, "Thank you for your benefactor's life-saving grace."
The woman grabbed his arm and said with a smile: "King Zheng doesn't have to be polite, Xiaoxian can't afford it."
Zhao Chengqian was stunned, and when he saw that she actually knew herself, she also called herself a little fairy, and asked: "Girl, you are a heavenly immortal."
The woman smiled again: "King Zheng doesn't need to know my true identity, I was ordered by the master of my family Taiyi, knowing that King Zheng was in trouble, so I came here to save him."
Zhao Chengqian said: "Thank you Immortal Gu for saving me, I will go to Taiyi Zhenren in the future to shape my true body, I still have important things to do, don't go first."
The woman listened and asked, "Is the king going to find out about the pain of losing a child?"
Zhao Chengqian didn't dare to hide it, and replied: "Yes."
The woman smiled, then pointed to the highest mountain and said, "King Zheng, please come with me, I will let you see it carefully." There was a whistle.
The tiger just now quickly came to the woman, lying beside the woman, rubbing against the woman's dress.
Zhao Chengqian asked, "Isn't this tiger raised by the Immortal Gu?"
The woman smiled and replied, "Yes, this tiger is my mount." With a slight stretch of his hand, a beautiful lantern appeared in his hand, and then placed it in the tiger's mouth.
The woman said, "Please."
Zhao Chengqian listened, Zhao Chengqian was in front, Lin Zhi was behind, protecting the master, and followed her to the top of the peak.
In front of the tiger with a lantern in its mouth to illuminate, sure enough, there are a number of rafters thatched huts, wild chrysanthemums on the edge of the fence, a stream of water in front of the door, a ghostly scene, a sharp mind until a refresh.
The woman led the two of them to the living room, invited Zhao Chengqian to a seat, and served tea.
Lin Zhi stood behind King Zheng.
Zhao Chengqian had no intention of drinking tea, and wanted to be anxious to know about the loss of his child.
The woman smiled slightly, looked at Zhao Chengqian's forehead sweating, and waved her hand lightly.
A mural appeared opposite Zhao Chengqian.
In the painting, a figure swayed, and I saw two Taoist priests inside, carrying two four-year-old boys, who came to the old Tao.
Lao Dao held a seven-inch-long dagger in his hand, gouging out his brain and heart, and the action was very quick, and then the two little Taoist priests threw the child into the pot, and the water in the pot was boiling.
Zhao Chengqian screamed, and when he saw the child being thrown into the pot, he rushed over to save the child.
Who knew that the portrait disappeared, and Zhao Chengqian was hit on it.
I saw that Zhao Chengqian's eyebrows stood up, his face was resentful, and he shouted: "Why don't you save him, you are an immortal."
The woman was startled, and when she saw Long Yan furious, she said in a low voice: "Everything has a fixed number, you can't go against the sky, if King Zheng really wants to save more innocent children, hurry up and find a way."
Lin Zhi asked, "Immortal Gu, do you have a clever plan?"
The woman looked at Zhao Chengqian and said, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, King Zheng is so smart, I believe that he will soon think of a way."
Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, he said, "It's inconvenient for me to stay in other people's homes for a long time, so don't leave it at that." After speaking, he walked to the courtyard, sat on the tiger, and disappeared into the night sky.
Zhao Chengqian pondered for a while, thinking about what the woman said just now, his eyes lit up, and he instructed Lin Zhidao: "Lin Zhi, let's go back to the city."
Lin Zhi followed behind Zhao Chengqian, and just walked out of the courtyard, the house in front of him turned into nothing and turned into a rock.
Zhao Chengqian took Lin Zhi back to the inn, took out his waist card, and sent Lin Zhi to the barracks outside the city to mobilize 5,100 officers and soldiers to besiege Chaoyang Temple.
Lin Zhi took the waist card and arrived at the barracks, who didn't know Lin Zhi, his father was Lin Guang, one of the famous "Double War Gods".
There is also the waist card of the king, Zhao Chengqian is the main grasp of military power, and he can mobilize the army at will.
The old emperor was afraid that his sons, for the sake of the throne, would kill each other, and arranged each son in an important position, each with one government, involving each other, and pulling the whole body.
Lin Zhi personally selected a thousand elite soldiers, went to Chaoyang Temple, besieged them from all directions, and captured a total of 170 Taoist priests and Bai Mei in Chaoyang Temple.
Bai Mei knew that the crime was monstrous, and if he fell into the hands of Zhao Chengqian, he must be tortured to extract a confession, and he committed suicide by biting his tongue on the road.
There were some little Taoist priests left, and they didn't ask anything after asking.
Zhao Chengqian spoke and brought all these people to the university field.
The entire Fengyang City was in a sensation, and the common people all rushed to see the excitement.
Zhao Chengqian personally supervised and beheaded them, listed their crimes, steamed children, and the human and material evidence were all there, which could not be denied.
cut off all the beheads in the big school field, giving the people a breath of grievance.
Zhao Chengqian ordered Lin Zhi to take the head of the white-eyebrow back to Beijing.
Lin Zhi was puzzled, and he didn't dare to ask more, and under the escort of the officers and soldiers, he returned to the Zhengwang Mansion safely.
Zhao Chengqian rewarded the officers and soldiers for escorting them and waited for them to go back.
Zhao Chengqian said to Lin Zhi: "Lin Zhi, you take someone to send the head of the white eyebrows to Chen Guoshi."
Lin Zhi suddenly realized, and hurriedly said, "Yes." took two retinues and came to the Temple of Nations.
When the little Taoist priest heard that Lin Zhilin's guards wanted to see the national teacher, he didn't dare to slack off, so he flew in to report it.
Chen Guoshi's common name is Chen Guozhong, this person has a knife face, mouse eyes, a goatee, a Taoist robe, and a whisk in his hand.
Hearing that Lin Zhi wanted to see him, he was a little flustered, he had already heard that his eldest apprentice was caught by King Zheng and beheaded all his disciples and grandchildren of Chaoyangguan.
Fortunately, the eldest apprentice Bai Mei bit his tongue and committed suicide halfway through, and did not confess himself, but seeing that Lin Zhi was still a little weak-hearted.
But then I thought about it, I am the prince's person, and in the future, the prince will ascend the throne, and he will be a king, what is it.
Thinking of this, I put on the word "please".
There was not much time, Lin Zhi came to the hall, followed by two entourages, the big knife hung in his waist, holding the handle of the knife, and one person holding a box.
Chen Guoshi is also a person who has seen the big formation, his heart is flustered, the surface is calm, seeing Lin Zhi coming, he waved the dust, and said: "Immeasurable Tianzun, I don't know what Lin Guard is doing when he comes to Benguan?"
Lin Zhihe said respectfully: "King Zheng asked me to give Chen Guoshi a gift, and I hope that Chen Guoshi's subordinates."
A retinue in the back handed the box to a small Taoist priest.
The little Taoist priest took the box with both hands and came to Chen Guoshi.
Chen Guoshi hesitated a little, he didn't dare not accept the things sent by King Zheng, and he was angry about what was inside, so he opened it in public.
Seeing a bloody human head on several sides, baring his teeth and staring at himself with his eyes open.
Frightened, Chen Guoshi took a few steps back, his face pale.
When the little Taoist priest saw that the viewer was frightened like this, he tilted his head and looked towards the box, and when he saw that there was a human head inside, he screamed and threw the box to the ground.
The white-eyed man's head rolled to the ground.
Lin Zhi asked coldly, "Does Guoshi Chen know this person?"
Chen Guoshi's face jumped a few times and said, "It's my eldest apprentice Baimei."
Lin Zhidao: "This person is in Chaoyang View of Fengyang City, steaming and eating children, the crime is extremely evil, and he has been the king and the law."
Chen Guoshi pretended not to know and said, "Is there such a time? This unfilial disciple dares to do such a rebellious thing, the king is wise, and he is innocent of death. ”
Lin Zhiyi smiled and said: "The national teacher understands the righteousness and must strictly manage his apprentices in the future."
Chen Guoshi hurriedly replied: "Lin Huwei is right, when the emperor comes back, I will definitely apologize in front of the emperor."
Lin Zhiyi hugged his fists and said, "Farewell." After saying that, he walked away.
After Chen Guoshi waited for Lin Zhi to leave, he looked at the white-eyebrowed head, gritted his teeth and said, "Apprentice, wait for the teacher to avenge you."
I saw the white-eyed human head, and when I heard the master say this, I closed my eyes.
Chen Guoshi said to the little Taoist priest beside him: "Prepare a sedan chair." Coming out of the view of all countries, the sedan chair ran towards the palace.
When he came to the palace gate, the guards guarding the palace gate did not dare to stop the sedan chair of the national teacher, so he opened the palace gate and let the sedan chair of the national teacher Chen enter.
The palace is the place where the Son of Heaven lives, it is splendid, needless to say, the golden dragon is flying, the golden dragon is lying down, and the palace adds majesty and solemnity.
The sedan chair stopped at the Xuanmen, and it was the harem in the direction, and the sedan chair could not be taken.
Chen Guoshi came out of the sedan chair and hurried towards the prince's residence.
The guards went in to report and received a summons order.
Chen Guoshi breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down, and walked towards the prince's inner palace, and heard the sound of the piano fluttering in the distance.
When I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I heard the laughter of men and women coming from the house.
Chen Guoshi walked to the door, and Gong'e opened the door curtain.
Chen Guoshi entered the hall, and saw that there was a warbler singing and swallow dancing inside, and a twenty-six-year-old man was sitting on it, with a round face, a lion nose, a square opening, thick eyebrows, and a purple face, giving people a sense of fierce and cruel vision.
This person is the crown prince Zhao promised, hugging the beauties on both sides, and when he saw Chen Guoshi coming in, he beckoned to him.
Chen Guoshi bypassed the singer, came to Zhao Chengcheng, gave a deep salute, and said, "Prince."
Zhao Cheng was drunk and smoky, his face was flushed, and he looked at Chen Guoshi with a half-crooked face and asked, "How did you come to my palace today?"
Chen Guoshi whispered a few words in the prince's ear.
Zhao Chengcheng's face sank, pushed away the concubine rooms on both sides, and with a wave of his hand, all the people in the room retreated.
Chen Guoshi gave him the news he learned and Lin Zhi gave him the head of Bai Mei, and gave it all to him.
Zhao Cheng said angrily: "What a Zhao Chengqian, dare to openly oppose me."
Chen Guoshi added oil and vinegar to the side, and said: "King Zheng's lesson to me is to slap the prince in the face, this is the head, we planted it."
The jade cup beside Zhao Cheng was angry and shattered.
Chen Guoshi said in a low voice: "It seems that King Zheng has set his sights on us, refining the elixir of immortality, we have to let it go first, otherwise the emperor will come back, King Zheng will participate in a book, and the emperor will investigate it, and we will not survive."
Zhao Cheng snorted angrily, his eyes showed a fierce light, and said, "Find someone to kill King Zheng secretly."
Chen Guoshi hurriedly said: "No, now that King Zheng has the power of the army in his hands, and Lin Guang's loyal protection, we can't move him now, and now that Lin Zhi is back, King Zheng is now like a tiger with wings."
Zhao Cheng frowned and asked, "Then we can't do anything about him?"
Chen Guoshi sneered and said: "We have no way to deal with Zhao Chengqian now, then we will attack his sworn friend, Ye Chengli is the best example."
Zhao promised to look at Chen Guoshi, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Chen Guoshi said: "The emperor will come back in a few days, we must win the invigilator of this imperial examination in our hands, and take the opportunity to arrange for us and our people, wouldn't we add more arms."
Zhao Cheng pointed at Chen Guoshi, laughed, and nodded with satisfaction.
A few days later, the emperor returned to the court with all his concubines, and the prince, the king, the king of Liang, and the king of the side went out of the city fifty miles to respond.
In the car, the emperor lifted the curtains of the car and looked out, only to see the officers and soldiers at five steps and one post, three steps and one sentry, protecting the road.
Look at the sons again, neatly dressed, all majestic, and happy in their hearts, especially the king is very much like his youth.
Now that I'm close to the sixtieth birthday, I'm powerless.
When they came to the city, the people on both sides knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live", with loud voices and officers and soldiers protecting the road.
Emperor Zhao Shizhong was at the window, waving frequently to the people.
A world of balances.
Come to the middle of the main street.
Suddenly, a cold arrow flew from the roof and stabbed straight into the emperor's carriage.
King Zheng's eyes are quick, he casually picked up the bow and arrow behind his back, and shot at the cold arrow, the arrows were opposite, and the two arrows both landed.
The crown prince exclaimed, "There are assassins, protect the emperor."
