After Lin Manliu and the others walked through the Imperial Horse Garden, they came to a water pavilion in the lake, and the long and graceful corridor in front of them hung on the surface of the lake like a silver thread.

These corridors, which are usually used for the walking of palace maids and eunuchs, are particularly narrow at the moment, which makes their forward speed slow down a lot.

The two of them looked at the twists and turns in front of them, and they didn't forget to say a few words of gossip in their mouths.

"The third child... You say that this imperial city was built... It's a lot of work to walk, isn't it? ”

"Not really! Second brother, if you have the money to build these pavilions and pavilions, you can use them to pay the soldiers on the front line, and you may be able to feed many people! ”

Shen Hetong, who was not far from the two, also spoke out with his words.

"There will be a lot of fewer deaths..."

Wuji looked at Shen Hetong when he heard the sound, and then raised his hand to show off the Wuye Riding Saber he had just grabbed.

"Big brother! Big brother, look, these two knives are not bad just now, can you find a master for us to fight again when you get out? ”

Shen Youtong nodded and hummed, and motioned for him to put it away.

Just as the two were talking, a dark shadow suddenly emerged from the water, aiming at Wuji, who had his back to the water.

Woo - woo -

Shen and Tonghe Hua Duan reacted the fastest, one swept across the block with a swing of his blade, and the other shouted to remind him to dodge.

"Be careful!"

The chain blade rolled out of the former's hand was extremely fast, and after Wuji dodged sideways, it shot towards the black shadow.

Hit!

With the sound of "plop", the black shadow completely submerged in the water and was never seen again.

The tacit understanding between the three of them, as well as the black shadow that had just flashed, alarmed the entire forward team.

Ye Chengzhu and Lu Fengbai raised their blades almost at the same time, always paying attention to the changes on both sides of the corridor.

After Lin Manliu made brief eye contact with Yue Hanzhi, he also began to look cautiously at the surface of the water, and Xia Mingcicada was held in his hand and ready to make a move.

Lu Fengbai spoke: "Can you see what it is?" ”

There was no need for him to turn back at all, Shen Hetong immediately responded.

"It should be no more than four feet tall, with short knives on both arms... Judging by his movements, he is not throwing a knife, most of them have a killing move! ”

After Lu Fengbai's humming sound, he then looked sideways at Ye Chengzhu's side.

The latter responded: "During the previous exploration, this object was not found... I can only watch out for a moment. ”

Lu Fengbai's whole person behaved extremely plainly for such a reply, and there was not even the slightest change on his face.

In fact, for him and Ye Chengzhu, it's all the same...

After all, this time the Imperial City sneaked up, and when they learned from outside the city that Xie Qian had arrived, they didn't have any hope for the previous arrangement.

Lu Fengbai quickly made arrangements for the future in response to the black shadow just now.

Lin Manliu and Chen Feng followed Ye Chengzhu forward, Lu Fengbai himself sat in the middle of the team, and finally Shen and the three of them and the evil people who traveled with them were cut off.

As a result, a procession of 200 people began to walk slowly along the corridor of the lake, always on the lookout for changes in the waters on both sides.

Just as everyone was about to approach the water pavilion in the lake, the voice that had originally come from Shen and the three others sounded in the crowd again.

But this time, there are more than 40 black shadows!

Woo woo woo - woo woo -

This time, everyone present saw the faces of the black shadows clearly, and they turned out to be some children with pale faces?!

And the clothes worn by these children are unique eunuch costumes in the imperial city, and it seems that the color is a little abnormal because of the perennial soaking in water.

On their arms, rusty knives of different sizes were strapped, and as their bodies flickered, they also fell, pointing straight at the people in the corridor.

In an instant, the disciples of Yijian Villa, who had just finished the battle from the Imperial Horse Garden, fell into a fight again.

Compared to the spacious horse farm just now, the corridor in the lake here is difficult for everyone to show their skills, and some disciples of Yijian Villa who are good at doing good deeds and have long soldiers can only be forced to resist the invasion of black shadows.

Only then did these eunuch-dressed children be knocked into the water, and the next moment another one stabbed out of the water, which made everyone present a little passive for a while.

Shen Youtong was blocked in front of him, and under his urging, the chain blade in his hand swung non-stop, throwing some black shadows to the back as much as possible.

One, four, six......

Hua Duan soon sensed the eldest brother's thoughts, and immediately changed the sword in his hand to Changge, as long as Shen and Tong fell over, he hooked the black shadow to the back.

"Third child, let's help together!"

Wuji heard the second brother's shout, and also moved.

It seems that it is the tacit cooperation of the three of them, and the black shadows that were originally blocked in front of them, except for those that were cut off by Lu Fengbai, were almost all contained in the rear by them.

With a single sword, he threw the last black shadow into the lake behind.

He laughed loudly: "The eldest brother and the second brother are here today, but they can be regarded as raising their eyebrows for a while!" ”

Shen Youtong waved the chain blade in his hand towards Wu Ji, and the latter tilted his head when he heard the news, and the chain blade wrapped in strong wind slashed across his face.

The next moment, a black shadow that wanted to sneak attack was smashed into the water by Shen Hetong again.

Shen Youtong said angrily: "It's not over yet, so you're thinking about drinking wine and eating meat?" Be careful... My second brother and I won't collect your body! ”

Wuji smiled heartily: "There is a big brother here!" There is also the owner of Lu Zhuang, how can anything happen to me with rough skin and thick meat! ”

The other two looked at this honest third child and laughed along.

Not far away, Lu Feng Baihuan looked around, his eyes still watching the changes in the surface of the lake.

The black shadow that he had just chopped into pieces of flesh with the paint night had obvious blood stains on the surface after falling into the water, but the black shadows that others had stopped or re-beaten had no such obvious signs.

Not dead...

Lin Manliu also noticed this, and kept turning his head to look at the lake on both sides.

In the middle section where Lu Fengbai is located, the blood in the lake is the most abundant, and in the front section where they and Ye Chengzhu are located, the blood and water in the lake are second.

And at the back of the crowd, the blood was barely visible in the lake...

Lin Manliu and Lu Fengbai thought of something at the same time, and the two of them shouted back together.

"Watch out for the !! behind"

Suddenly, they were joined in shouting, and there was a terrible roar in the water pavilion that pierced the eardrums.

"Dolls! When you return the gift to your godfather... It's here! ”

In just one breath, the number of black shadows far exceeded the previous number, and began to pour out from the back half of the crowd.

Eighty, one hundred, two hundred...

In this seemingly calm lake, there are actually more than 200 children dressed as eunuchs!

After more than two hundred little eunuchs poured out of the water, they rushed straight to the second half of the crowd where Shen and the three others were.

Shen Youtong waved the chain blade, and when he was about to try his best to block it, dozens of black rays shot out from the mouths of those little eunuchs.

Whoosh – whoosh –

As one black light after another shot out, there was a scene of crossbow arrows being shot a little more.

Fortunately, after the break, it is basically the evil belonging, as the blades of the empire, they carry the standard equipment with them, which is naturally much better than that of Yijian Villa.

In the face of the sudden attack, everyone responded in an orderly manner, and the number of times they were attacked and injured by the black mang or was close to the little eunuch was very rare.

However, there was a mistake in the hundred, and just a moment before Lu Fengbai stepped over, suddenly a black light was about to stab at the head of an evil disciple, and a faster black shadow flashed in front of that person.

The black shadow first deflected the black light spit out by the little eunuch, and then pushed his elbow to the right, sending the evil disciple away.

When he stood still, his steps seemed a little vain, and he almost didn't step on it when he retreated.

Just as the shadow was about to glance back at his eldest brother, another black light struck him.

At this moment, Shen Youtong's eyes were red, and he seemed to have thousands of words in his mouth that he wanted to blurt out.

But when he saw the expression of Wujile smirking, he couldn't say anything.

Wuji snorted and grinned at him.

"Big brother... I was a little greedy just now, and I blocked a little too much, it seems..."

After that, this man who was usually stupid and happy when he was okay fell to the ground.

In the pool of blood, except for the black light that he had just struck with his knife, there were already six or seven more wounds on his body at this moment.

It's all hurt by those black rays...

Shen Youtong rushed in front of Wuji almost in a frenzy, and he looked around at the little eunuchs who had been knocked into the water again and again.

The hands that were clenching the chain blades showed some signs of cracking in the position of the tiger's mouth, but he didn't notice it at all.

It's the same with the flowers, when he just saw the offensive protruding, he shot with Wuji to defend against the enemy, but when those black mangs were shooting, the third child, who couldn't take care of himself on weekdays, actually thought about helping others.

Wuji looked at the two good brothers who rushed to him, suppressed the pain on his face with all his might, and forcibly squeezed out a smiling face.

He said in a trembling voice, "Big brother... You know some of our old ailments... I don't have long to live... Don't be too ..."

Shen and the same general swung out the chain blade in his hand, smashing the nearest little eunuch on the spot.

He turned his back to Wuji and roared: "You shut up Lao Tzu!" ”

But this time, Wuji was not obedient as usual, and was still babbling.

"Big brother... We didn't have a name when we were young, but we met you... That's the name..."

Shen Hetong forced all the little eunuchs in front of him to retreat, and looked back at Wuji on the ground with red eyes.

"I said... You shut up! Something will happen later... You're insisting that you will... Hold on for a while..."

What was originally a harsh word, after a short number, became a feeble plea.

But even so, how can we keep the dying life?

After Lu Fengbai arrived, he also participated in the blocking battle in the rear, he had already noticed the changes in Shen and the three of them, but at this moment, he still needed to break the current predicament as soon as possible.

Ye Chengzhu also came to the rear, and when he walked to the side of the three of them, he first glanced at the flowers that stopped the little eunuch, and then looked at Wuji, who had already fallen to the ground.

"Most of these black mangs are highly poisonous, but the wound medicine carried by the evil can only suspend the injury, but cannot suppress the poisonous hair..."

Shen Youtong listened to his words and hurriedly turned his head to look at Ye Chengzhu.

The latter took out two bottles of wound medicine from his arms, threw one bottle out of them to Shen Hetong, and quickly rushed in the direction of Lu Fengbai, passing by the flowers who were still defending the enemy in the process.

After Shen Youtong received the medicine for the injury, he began to hurriedly help Wuji to bandage the injury, and dealt with all his injuries as much as possible.

At this moment, Wuji did not look at his eldest brother, but at the little eunuchs who were gradually decreasing.

He endured the pain and said, "Big brother... We were beaten by these dolls without handles today, will no one say that it is useless..."

Listening to the unplanned fragments, Shen Youtong's actions of bandaging the wound seemed a little hurried.

Seeing that his eldest brother didn't speak, he closed his eyes and continued to chatter.

"A few years ago, when my eldest brother didn't come... We are always bullied by those rich children who come down to post gold... A few times I tried to sneak out of the barracks..."

"But when I think about our family... Don't want me to eat rice..."

"The little ones can't afford to pay the food at home... We're being thrown in as big soldiers... If I go back... What are they going to do..."

As he spoke, tears flowed out of his eyes along with blood, and finally sank into the black pool of blood.

"Ever since I met my eldest brother... Everything is getting better... The eldest brother also divided the military salary between us and the second brother, and we can save a lot of money for the family..."

Shen Youtong looked at the finally bandaged planner in front of him, and shouted weakly.

"Enough... Enough is enough..."

Wuji finally stopped talking, his eyes were closed tightly, but his mouth was hooked up with a smug arc.

As the breath on the tip of his nose gradually weakened, he lay quietly in a pool of blood.

Shen Hetong exhaled slowly, his hands kept groping beside him, until after those little eunuchs had been killed, he finally touched his two chain blades.

He stood up and looked at the lake pavilion in the distance, and everyone including him knew that the people who drove these little eunuchs were in the pavilion.

When Shen Hetong was about to run forward, Lu Fengbai's voice sounded beside him.

"Later, if I could, I would leave the opportunity to you... Now let's pranayama first. ”

Shen Youtong was silent for a moment, hummed simply, and immediately meditated cross-legged on Wuji's side.

The returning flower looked at the peaceless sleep, and the expression on his face looked a little distracted.

When he was about to follow Lu Fengbai and Ye Chengzhu forward, the latter turned around and took a look, so he could only stop and stay where he was to protect his eldest brother.

Lin Manliu and Yue Hanzhi, who had already stopped near the Water Pavilion, gathered together after Lu Fengbai and Ye Chengzhu came back.

Lin Manliu had already heard about what was happening in the rear, but the situation was critical at the moment, and he could only check the injuries later.

Lu Fengbai looked at Qing Lan, hugged his fist at her, and said, "Later, we can enter the water pavilion, and ask Mr. Qing Lan to stay outside to prevent the thieves from attacking again." ”

Qing Lan didn't make a sound, and walked back with the two short guns in her hands.

Lin Manliu looked at the people behind him, and quickly glanced at the water pavilion in front of him.

He said out loud: "Master Lu, I think the shout in the water pavilion before is a little familiar..."

Ye Chengzhu said in a loud voice: "If my guess is not bad, it is most likely that Li Chengzhu who faked his death!" ”

When Lin Manliu heard this name, he immediately remembered the scarlet robe he saw under the Eastern Capital Tianshu.

That... This person should have escaped, right?

Ye Chengzhu saw the confusion on the young man's face, and explained as he walked forward.

"The battle of the eastern capital, but there are ambushes in the north and west of the city, in order to prevent Li Chengjun and his ilk from fleeing to Xijing..."

"But by the time the evil investigation revealed Li Chengluan's intention to 'burn the city', this person had already gathered his men and fled out, and then in the two days of interception, he had killed a person with a similar body shape, but it was not him..."

"And in the Imperial City, you can raise such a godson... Except for that Zhu Gaojiu, it can only be him Li Chengjiao..."

Lin Manliu listened to Ye Chengzhu's explanation, and was a little jealous of the red-robed eunuch with a sharp voice.

When everyone walked to the entrance of the Water Pavilion, Lin Manliu saw a vermilion robe, which appeared in the middle of the Water Pavilion very abruptly.

Li Chengyan looked at everyone with a hideous face, staring at Ye Chengzhu with a dead gaze.

"But evil is really a good dog who is loyal..."

Ye Chengzhu stretched out the bamboo umbrella in his hand, and looked back at Li Chengzhu with an indifferent face.

"Each other... Gonggong Li is loyal to the queen, and the blade of the empire will only be loyal to His Majesty! ”

Li Cheng laughed out loud: "Today's Son of Heaven... It's the Emperor of Sainthood! Where is the Xia family, Yanyang has changed his surname! ”

After that, this Gonggong Li tore the red robe on his body in half with both hands, and some ancient monsters spliced out of wooden blocks and iron pieces appeared in front of everyone.

Lin Manliu looked at the big eunuch in front of him who seemed to be no longer human, and looked at the wooden blocks that kept rotating in his abdominal cavity, and couldn't help but be a little shocked in his heart.

He'd seen these wooden structures in constant motion many times...

At first, it was the "Eight Phases" drawn by Mu Tianlian and Yue Qingqiu, and then it was the guidance of the old liar, and the "Fire Bull" seen in the outer city of the Eastern Capital.

These "heavenly creations" that were originally used outside the body and put into battle arrays are strangely appearing on people's bodies at this moment.

Except for the head, all other parts of Li Cheng's body have been replaced by wooden blocks and iron pieces.

He laughed in a shrill voice, "I think you already know... Why are our godsons so obedient? ”

Not only Li Chengyan, but also the little eunuchs who hid underwater before were like him.

It's not a human anymore...

Li Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and once again set his eyes on Ye Chengzhu's face.

"But you always say that you are loyal to the imperial power... But do you know... What have been the hardships of the two saints all these years? “

"You don't know! But we know! Our godsons who are dying also know it! ”

The confrontation between the two sides ended with this sharp sound, and before Li Chengzhu could move, Ye Chengzhu had already drawn out the thin sword in the sheath of the bamboo umbrella and went straight to the big eunuch who was neither human nor ghost.

After Qingzhulang came out of the sheath, it was like a brisk willow leaf in Ye Chengzhu's hand, and as he strode forward, the tip of the sword pointed sharply at Li Chengzhu's face.

Qiang - Qiang -

At the moment when the two were about to make contact, the Qingzhu Lang in Ye Chengzhu's hand was actually stopped by an ancient sword.

As soon as Ye Chengzhu's body moved, the thin sword in his hand immediately retreated, and without waiting for the person who supported Li Chengzhu to move, his whole person swept to the side.

Qingzhulang can obviously stab Li Cheng in the face, even if the latter uses all his strength to forcibly avoid it, it can hurt him fundamentally...

But because of the sudden arrival of an ancient sword, Ye Chengzhu's offensive rhythm was completely disrupted.

If he were an ordinary person, he would definitely not take a step back, but because of the appearance of that ancient sword... So he had to retreat.

The ancient sword pierced into Li Cheng's feet, its style was extremely simple, as if it was a three-foot sword that a dynasty had admired a hundred years ago.

At the bottom of the sword body of the ancient sword, near the position of the hilt, the word "Long Yin" of the ancient seal is engraved.

In an instant, an answer sounded in everyone's hearts...

Xie Qian has arrived!

Li Chengyan's gaze swept over Long Yin, and he looked somewhere with a sneering face.

"We thought... It will not be until our family is loyal to the death that the King of Hanchuan will stop him, or join them..."

Before Li Chengyan could finish speaking, a black shadow walked out from behind him, and at the same time raised his hand to grab his neck.

Suddenly, a powerless feeling of suffocation made Li Chengyan speechless.

He could only barely scream with all his strength, and looked at the man behind him with a flattering face.

"Our family... Collided with the King of Hanchuan... It's our fault... But it's all for the queen..."

Xie Qian glanced at Li Chengyan with some disgust, and with a pull of the strength in his hand, he threw this eunuch who was not a human or a ghost to the ground.

As soon as Li Chengyan was about to get up, Xie Qian stepped on it and completely crushed his knee.

The former didn't dare to make a sound at all, and the whole person shrank to the ground like a pug, and began to wag his tail and beg for mercy from Xie Gan.

This scene made everyone present a little stunned, and the great eunuch who was still saying that he was for the sake of the Holy Virtue and the Empress Niang, had fallen to the King of Hanchuan who did not know his intentions at this moment.

Xie Qian held the saber dragon in his hand, looked around for a week, and then fixed his gaze on Lu Fengbai.

He asked out loud: "Yijian Villa, Lu Fengbai?" ”

Lu Fengbai hugged his fists and replied: "It's here, I don't know why the King of Hanchuan is here today?" ”

Xie Qian stood on the high platform of the water pavilion, looked at the people present condescendingly, and began to ask and answer himself.

"In the past, someone asked Xie Mou, what if someone rebelled in the Guannei?"

"Xie once said that those who intrude on the country will be killed!"

"I don't know if the evil and Yijian Villa are here today, are they trying to rebel in the Guannei?"

Lu Fengbai walked up the steps, unsheathed the lacquer night and day together, and looked at Xie Qian not far away side by side with Ye Chengzhu.

"King Hanchuan may be able to reduce ten meetings with one force, but can he stop the encirclement of the three armies outside the city?"

Xie Qian listened to Lu Fengbai's question, and an extremely strange smile appeared on his face.

He asked, "Lu Fengbai... Why don't you give it a try? ”
