Ranger: Warrior Vanguard Chapter 4: Chasing Simon at Night

"West······ Who is Simon?" Liu Lanzhi was a little surprised: "Why is tonight's task to ask everyone to arrest someone?"

"It only shows that this person is extremely dangerous, but it is also very important. Jiao Zhongqing put on the battle armor, and handed the sword to Hua Mulan and Liu Lanzhi, he straightened his chest, and said very solemnly: "Mulan, Lanzhi, tonight's event is really important, but why can't we forget the danger of this mission." We have done a good job in the previous mission, but this mission is not ordinary. It is said that the guy named Ximen is the first major offender in Chang'an City for decades, but it is not easy to succeed, so why should they be careful. ”

"I understand this Simon. Hua Mulan wiped her double sword, as if reminiscing, and said: "My father fought with Simon Anger before, but he didn't bargain, but was severely injured by Simon Anger, resulting in his current age, his body is not as good as before. ”

"Lian······ Can't even the young old general win?" Jiao Zhongqing hesitated a little and said, "It's better to ······ Let's choose another mission······ Didn't General Cheng let us choose one of the two? If we didn't choose to arrest Ximen, it would have been much easier to participate in the attack on the thieves' den in the southern part of Chang'an City. ”

"Both are actual combat, but the difficulty is much different. Hua Mulan put away the double swords, she didn't know much about the double swords, but because the double swords were her father's favorite things, she would always carry them with her. Jiao Zhongqing looked at her expression, nodded and said, "I understand, why do you always have to have some pursuits, don't you?" Liu Lanzhi originally wanted to go to the den of thieves, but when she heard him say so, she couldn't object again.

"It's very lively tonight, Simon is angry to appear in the city at this time, I don't know what kind of fame he is doing. Cheng Yanjin shook his head and said, "Don't waste time, let's go their own way." Master Di and Lord Qin will follow your results separately, and if you have any questions, you can also ask me at any time. Speaking of this, he transformed into a chef, holding a shovel in one hand and an iron pot in the other, and blended into the crowd of people below.

"This cross-dressing technique is really powerful!" Jiao Zhongqing admired as he flew to the roof of a building and peeked down.

"Simon shouldn't be in the crowd. He came to Chang'an this time, he should have other purposes, just to help him hide his whereabouts through this large number of people. Hua Mulan gently and skillfully landed behind Jiao Zhongqing and patted him: "You can't see it here, you have to take the initiative to attack to have a chance." ”

Jiao Zhongqing's gaze turned around in the crowd, turning himself dizzy, he shook his head vigorously and said, "That's ······ Then why did he show up and be discovered by the defenders of Chang'an? Does he want to be chased by us, so as to gain pleasure in teasing us?"

Hua Mulan nodded and said, "It's really possible." The idea of this kind of thief, which is rare in the world, is not so easy to figure out. ”

"Uh······" Jiao Zhongqing originally made a joke, but when she heard Hua Mulan say this, she suddenly felt that it made sense, and couldn't help but be annoyed: "But I see that the surrounding teams of people who came to catch Ximen are also lurking in the dark places on the rooftops, can we have any other choice than looking for someone here?"

"If you can't find him, lead him out. Hua Mulan said and pulled out the heavy sword on her back and said, "This sword is the ancestral weapon of our Hua family, and it is extremely powerful. My father said that when he relied on the cold of this sword, he also injured Simon with a point of anger, and I think that openly showing this sword should be able to lead Simon to dedicate himself. ”

"This is your family's ancestral. Jiao Zhongqing shook his head again and again and said, "If you lose it, let's not talk about how to explain to General Hua, how should you fight Mulan in the future?" He knew in his heart that Hua Mulan's combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced with just two short swords.

"Huh. The corners of Mulan's mouth raised: "In a chaotic world, if you don't take risks, you can only do nothing after all." Zhong Qing, don't hesitate. With his left hand, he gently clenched his fist on Jiao Zhongqing's shoulder, and turned around to greet Liu Lanzhi.

Liu Lanzhi couldn't help but be a little stunned when she watched the actions of the two. Hua Mulan called her for a long time before she came back to her senses and followed the two out of the house aimlessly.

Jiao Zhongqing was dressed in black, holding Mulan's heavy sword and running quickly to the high platform in the middle of the square in the local business district, inserting the heavy sword into the small platform on the high platform, and then bent his knees and knelt in place, looking very religious.

"Can this work?" Liu Lanzhi finally regained consciousness, holding double knives and Hua Mulan in the corner of the wall not far away, watching Jiao Zhongqing standing alone in the cold wind, and said a little uncomfortable.

"There is no other way, if Simon does not take the initiative to dedicate himself, we will not find him on our own. Hua Mulan said, and there was a sudden commotion on the other side, and there were several groups of people who couldn't bear it, and rushed directly into the crowd to search one by one.

Jiao Zhongqing looked at the chaotic direction suspiciously, but he couldn't see what was going on. At this time, a middle-aged man in a black cloak walked up to him with a smile and said, "Little brother, why are you kneeling here?"

"Ah······ I picked up this sword, I heard that it was an Excalibur, so I waited here for its owner to come and get it. Jiao Zhongqing said casually.

"Yes, this sword happens to be my friend's, so I'll take it back for him first. Little brother, you don't have to kneel here anymore, let me tell you, this sword is not a divine sword······" As soon as Jiao Zhongqing saw that he was about to draw his sword, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "No, no, no······ Even if this sword is not a divine sword, it is very valuable, so it is better to wait for its owner to come and get it himself. ”

"Ouch, I'm also thinking about you, little brother, how bad is it to kneel here on such a cold day?" The middle-aged man bared his teeth, making his face full of wrinkles and an evil smile, which made Jiao Zhongqing very uncomfortable.

"It's okay, it's okay, I don't care about that. Jiao Zhongqing also forced a smile on his face and pressed the heavy sword, not pulling it out for the middle-aged man. When the middle-aged man saw it, he suddenly changed his face, shook off the cloak with a "brush", threw it on Jiao Zhongqing's face, and shouted: "Don't be ashamed of your face!

"Ximen Anger!" Hua Mulan noticed him from afar, and immediately rushed over with Liu Lanzhi, and when she saw that he actually wanted to rob him, she immediately guessed that he was Ximen Anger.

Jiao Zhongqing is not a vegetarian either, as soon as he let go, he took out a long steel knife from his waist, cut the cloak into two pieces with a single lift, and stabbed Ximen's lower abdomen with a knife.

Ximen laughed evilly, grabbed Jiao Zhongqing's steel knife, and pushed Jiao Zhongqing backwards with a violent flick. Jiao Zhongqing didn't expect that he was not only not afraid of the sharpness of the blade, but also had so much strength, and he fell down after being pushed.

"You can't escape!" Liu Lanzhi drew his heavy sword and threw it back, grabbing his double knives to block Ximen's retreat.

"Yo, there's a lot of people. Simon looked around, and saw that the various teams had noticed that something was wrong and began to look this way.

"Ximen, just take it!" Mulan shouted as she took the heavy sword. When the surrounding people heard the words "Ximen Anger", they were so frightened that they all ran away from the distance, and when the soldiers in the roof and the square heard it, they all surrounded them.

"A group of rats!" Ximen snorted coldly, he didn't know that this was a trap, but the Hua family heavy sword attracted him too much, so when he saw the Hua family heavy sword at a glance, he risked being found to come and try it, even if he couldn't grab the Hua family heavy sword, he was very sure that he could get out.

"What are you doing shouting so loudly?" Liu Lanzhi was speechless in her heart, watching more soldiers from other teams around her fall to block Ximen's path, she was helpless: "I'm afraid I won't be able to grab the credit now." ”

Simon shook his left arm in disgust, and out of nowhere, he shook out a long black whip several feet long, and kept dripping black dirty liquid.

"What is it?" Liu Lanzhi raised his double knives and blocked twelve times in front of him, withstanding Ximen's twelve consecutive volleys. At this time, Jiao Zhongqing also rushed to Liu Lanzhi's side, he pointed a knife at Ximen, and asked at the same time, "Lanzhi, are you okay?"

"It's fine. Liu Lanzhi felt that her heart was hot, and she smiled: "He alone can't hurt me." ”

"Innocent boy and girl!" Ximen snorted coldly, "Do you really think I can't kill you?" Hua Mulan had already strided, the horizontal sword held the steel fork, and rushed towards Ximen's crotch with a fierce force.

Simon reacted quickly, and he retreated far back, wrapping the long whip around the steel fork and shaking it around, and the black water splashed everywhere, causing the surrounding warriors to be unable to free up their hands to participate in the battle.

Hua Mulan looked at the distance between herself and Ximen Anger, and quickly pursued Ximen Anger in three big strides in a row. Ximen didn't expect her to come so quickly, and a palm popped up in the front, while resisting the momentum brought by Mulan's sudden advance, and at the same time he took advantage of the situation and withdrew again.

"Don't want to go!" Mulan stabbed her sword to the ground, instantly making the air around her much hotter, and she took a step forward with the crimson mist around her.

"It's really difficult!" Simon cried out in disgust, and was about to gather a new round of attacks, when suddenly "ouch" screamed and took two steps backwards.

As soon as he stepped back, he immediately flipped back, covered his nose and shouted, "Who?

"Hahahahahaha! You also have today!" Cheng Yanjin, who was wearing a pair of swarthy glasses, jumped out of the crowd with a smile, shook a piece of green pepper in the pot in his right hand, and said, "How is it?

"Is that you?" Ximen was instantly vigilant, he knew that if Chang'an and all the experts attacked together, he would probably have to be captured alive. At this moment, he didn't dare to have the slightest support, and arched his hand to Cheng Yanjin: "Okay, I won't embarrass you today!" As soon as he moved his legs back, he jumped high and jumped up to the tall building next to him in one breath.

"Don't want to escape!" Hua Mulan didn't wait for Cheng to bite the blonde words, sprinted forward three times in a row, and climbed up in one breath. Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi looked at each other, worried that she would suffer alone, so they followed left and right.

Cheng Yanjin stopped the other soldiers who wanted to chase after him, and he shook the iron pot and shovel and kept pointing at the corroded and hot black water around him: "See clearly, what are these things? Do you want to let them stay here? Just clean them up and go back." As he spoke, he chased after him.

Ximen listened to the voice behind him, looked back again, and scolded: "Cheng Biting Jin can't come, do you dare to continue to entangle?" suddenly turned around, and the whole person stopped in the air.

"What······ What?" Seeing him suddenly open his mouth, Mulan's face instantly turned blue and fanged, like a wild beast monster, and he spat out a breath of black gas.

"Be careful!" Hua Mulan immediately stopped, using her body to block Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi who were catching up, and at the same time, she smashed her sword on the tiles under her with a heavy blow, enveloping the three of them with a thick crimson mist. After the black gas and the crimson mist came into contact, it dissipated on its own without any collision.

"What?" Simon said in disbelief as he had just regained his human form, "I······ Who are you?"

"I ······ It's the owner of this sword, who has come to avenge my father's revenge!" Mulan shouted, and then rushed forward again.

"It turned out to be his descendant!" Simon also understood Mulan's identity, how could he be careless, his arms suddenly opened, summoning countless black snake-like monsters to hover around him.

Jiao Zhongqing was worried that Mulan would suffer a loss, so he swung his knife forward and slashed at the black monster that popped up at Ximen.

The countless monsters that had coalesced together were shattered by him with a single sword, and at the same time they gathered together and fused again. Jiao Zhongqing waved his knife endlessly, confronting these monsters.

Hua Mulan bloomed with the edge of her heavy sword, emitting a bright light in the moonlit night, and slashed towards the front of Ximen. The monsters around Ximen Anger fused together on top of Simon Anger's head, forming a huge black shield and facing Mulan who fell from the sky.

"Knock knock!" the two men's assault came to naught, and they stopped in place at the same time. When Simon looked at it, he couldn't help but secretly cry out pity: "If the dead ghost man is not there, another black spirit snake will hurt her like attacking her father!

Hua Mulan only felt dazed for a while, holding her stomach and gasping for breath. Ximen looked at Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi approaching together, worried that Cheng Yanjin didn't know if he would suddenly jump out and give himself another look, so he turned around and ran.

"Stop ······ Stop ······ Ahem······" Mulan was in a hurry and coughed violently. Jiao Zhongqing helped her and chased after her with a knife.

Simon had just crossed over to the houses on the other side of the market, when suddenly the sky trembled, and the air in the whole market seemed to freeze.

"What's going on?" Jiao Zhongqing swung his knife forward, but he didn't want the road ahead to seem to have been firmly blocked by an invisible wall, not only weapons, but also people couldn't get through.

This is the Tongtian chess game, a chess game that can block anyone and anything. It's just that the three don't know each other.

"Below······ It seems to be some kind of poetry demon knife madness down the street. Liu Lanzhi looked down and wondered, "Is it some kind of poetry demon Hei Wuji who made it?"

"Don't worry about it so much. Hua Mulan breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still in a hurry to pursue Hei Wuji, walked to the seal of the Tongtian chess game, and as soon as she accumulated, the golden light of the heavy sword bloomed again, and a sword slashed on the Tongtian chess game.

This time, the effect was not obvious, and the barrier of the Tongtian chess game shook violently, but only two cracks faintly appeared.

Jiao Zhongqing looked at Mulan's pale face, but she was about to attack, and hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mulan, there is no need to be so anxious about catching Ximen's anger······

Suddenly, there was a violent vibration below, as if it had been strongly attacked. Liu Lanzhi said happily: "Yes, it must have been Mulan's attack that injured this air wall." He also drew his twin knives and stabbed forward.

Jiao Zhongqing was still suspicious, and suddenly there was a "jump" sound, the air in front of him became much more comfortable and fresh, and the Tongtian chess game had been broken. The three of them didn't care how they did it, and immediately leaped forward to continue the pursuit of Simon.

"You three!" seemed to be calling them, and the three of them stopped, only to see a personable man in white slowly falling from the sky, smiling and glancing at them, and said, "What? I helped you get out, but I didn't even say thank you?"

"Thank you. Mulan simply gave up her hand and planned to continue the pursuit. Liu Lanzhi couldn't see it, stretched out her hand to stop Hua Mulan and said, "Don't worry, we can't catch up anyway." ”

Mulan sighed, she didn't continue the pursuit, but she didn't look at the person directly, she was thinking about why she couldn't break through the air wall, but the person in front of her could do it easily.

Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi said a few words to the man in white. Hua Mulan only heard the man in white say that they were "robbing the job of the secret agent in Chang'an", and felt very uncomfortable and a little unhappy: "Ximen is not an ordinary thief, but a thief appointed by the empress. ”

The man in white swept her a little strangely, but Mulan was not afraid, and straightened her waist and stood upright at him. This made the man in white even more curious, and asked, "Girl······ What's your name?"

"A cheap name is not enough to hang on to your ears. Hua Mulan didn't want to waste more time with this person, but she didn't want to offend him, so she arched her hand and said: "Thank you for your help, but Ximen will do our best to arrest him." As he spoke, he turned around, sprinted forward three steps, and ran far away, looking for the direction in which Simon had fled.

"Alas······" Cheng Yanjin shook his head in the street market on the side, and at this time he had returned to his original outfit. He shook his head and said, "No······ It's still a little worse, if you can't improve, you can't always catch Simon's anger. I'll have to think of other ways to teach them. ”
