Chapter 5: The Assassination of Kaifeng (1)
"I said Lao Sha, how do you feel?" Before going out, Zhu Wenyu couldn't hold it back, and turned around and asked the desert.
"Shhhh Desert made a silent gesture and gave way.
It was nearly two watches, and the people on the street were becoming scarcer, but the dense lanterns on the storefronts still lit up the streets. The two turned to a remote dark street corner, Zhu Wenyu looked at no one around, and stood back fixedly.
"What is Brother Zhu's opinion?" Desert whispered.
"I think the two people Haitang and Qiuyun said are extremely suspicious, two of the people mentioned by Haitang have been killed, she said that the two people also talked about looking for other top girls in Qinglou, I must have asked some of them from others, maybe it was those two bastards who did it."
"What Brother Zhu said is very true, and there are two murderers who heard the nephew of the Yan Governor's Mansion in the Yueyue Mansion during the day, which is similar to what Qiu Yun said." The desert nodded in the darkness.
"Also, judging from Begonia Qiuyun's words, these two people went to the Qinglou, it seems that they are not just ordinary pleasure seeking, but it seems that they are completely for his mother's lustful desire, and those two bastards want to inquire about the deep boudoir in Kaifeng City, they must have other plans and bad intentions, I dare to conclude that nine out of nine are those two little kings and eight cubs......" Zhu Wenyu added.
"Brother Zhu be careful...... Desert suddenly exclaimed, and quickly pulled Zhu Wenyu in front of him. A cold soaking light swept across his arm, and after a trace of cold coolness, Zhu Wenyu felt a hot feeling on the outside of his left arm, and he didn't realize it for a while, and when he turned his head, he saw that the desert had been entangled with a masked man in black with a folding fan.
"Someone stabbed it!" Zhu Wenyu was taken aback.
Zhu Wenyu has not experienced the assassination, in the old years, someone assassinated Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor, on the street, and at that time Zhu Wenyu was still the enemy of Zhu Wenyu's retreat, and he had an enjoyable fight, that is, that time let the emperor's uncle know that he knew martial arts. Zhu Wenyu is not afraid of fighting, and after learning martial arts, he did everything possible to find someone to fight, and even did the ridiculous thing of pretending to be a ghost in the palace. It's just that his actual combat experience is indeed still shallow, although his martial arts have entered the realm of first-class masters, when he uses himself as the target of assassination like this, his reaction is still not as fast as that of the battle-hardened desert. He still didn't understand how someone could stab him in Kaifeng City, and for some reason, there was a hint of coolness in his vest.
Although his head couldn't react for a while, Zhu Wenyu was already a first-class skill after all, and the true qi of the health preservation recipe in his body naturally induced, knowing the way of the cold sword in his back heart, he involuntarily turned his body slightly to the side, and there was a cold and shining sword that passed by the back of his heart, and his eyes glanced at him, and he was also a masked person.
The masked man's long sword waved horizontally, and Zhu Wenyu was in a hurry, Zhu Wenyu sensed the way the enemy was coming, and knew that it was a move of the "Bodhisattva Lighting the Lamp" of the South China Sea School. The sword moves of the South China Sea faction are very different from those of the Middle Earth, the sword goes sideways, the way is strange, the tricks are extremely fast, and it is really a swordsmanship that is not easy to deal with. Fortunately, there are also partial disciples of the Nanhai faction among the palace guards, Zhu Wenyu is not too unfamiliar with their sword moves, Rao is like this, he is still shocked into a cold sweat, a slight step under his feet, and rushed forward half a foot, seeing that he was about to stick to the wall, but Zhu Wenyu didn't know what body technique he used, he actually kneeled on the wall, and his body was biased, and he had floated out seven feet away from the right side of the masked man with the sword edge, and arrived behind the masked man, which made the masked man who made the sword stunned.
This Zhu Wenyu's body can be said to be except for the deceased "Thunder Swordsman" Nangong Lei has never been seen by others, but he figured it out by himself in the rockery in the back garden of the palace, before that he had never practiced light skills, and only saw some superficial light skills of the guards, as for the subtle and mysterious body method, there is not much critical time in the palace, and the guards rarely show it once, Zhu Wenyu is completely relying on his own pondering and comprehension to create a set of body methods, he is casual by nature, never talk about what posture is beautiful or anything, In addition to the internal force of the health regimen to go straight or jump up and down, but also to create a set of "rebound body method", no need to use the feet, as long as the knees, shoulders, elbows, waist, back and even thighs and other parts of the body on anything with a slight force, you can freely turn the body in any direction, and the speed is abnormal, completely relying on the natural qi in the body to exert force at will. This set of body techniques is very different from ordinary light exercises, and the world has never heard of it, let alone seen it. The Blue Winged Bat King Wei Yixiao had seen him practice this "rebound body method", and he also said that he had a different way to create a new light body technique. Although Wei Yixiao doesn't know how to do this, after all, he is a top-notch figure in the rivers and lakes, and after careful consideration, he gave detailed instructions to Zhu Wenyu, which are all key tricks, which greatly benefited Zhu Wenyu.
At this time, as soon as this body method was used, it really made the masked man stunned for a while, and he didn't understand for a while that Zhu Wenyu hit the wall of the Ming Dynasty, and according to the ordinary light martial arts method, he either went up and down, or floated out left and right, he had already thought of the sword move in his heart and was ready to chase after him, but he never expected that this Zhu Wenyu would actually rebound back and pass by his side dangerously, so that everything that he had planned in his heart would all fall short, and there was a big accident.
In fact, Zhu Wenyu's combat experience is still insufficient, if he has been in battle for a long time, he can attack when he passes by the masked man's side, and he doesn't have to float a few feet away, at such a close distance, the masked man's sword is already outside his body, and he can't turn back for a while, there is no threat at all, and the masked man can't think that he will stick to his side at such a close distance, he can't help but be stunned, at this time, he only needs to stretch out his finger and lightly tap on the masked man's body, and he can easily put his point down.
The black-clothed masked man slowly turned around and pointed his sword at Zhu Wenyu, and Zhu Wenyu was completely calm at this time, coldly inserted the folding fan back into the collar, and pulled it from his waist, and the Thunder Sword was already in his hand.
The desert over there and the masked man at the beginning have been fighting for nearly a dozen rounds, the desert was originally used to catch fast, and the commonly used weapons are special chains and iron rulers for catching fast in addition to the knife, this time he and Zhu Wenyu came out to inquire about the news in the Qinglou, and the knife was left in the burden of the inn and was not brought, but although this folding fan is not a steel bone and iron surface, it is used as an iron ruler between the swings to make it look good, and it is not very downwind.
Zhu Wenyu secretly used the health trick to protect the sword wound on his left arm, and in less than a moment, he stopped bleeding, which is also the magic of the health trick, but although the blood stopped, the wound was still there, burning hotly and painfully, which made him extremely unhappy. Zhu Wenyu is casual by nature, never has evil thoughts in his heart, he never killed a person when he escorted Zhu Yuanzhang on the street, the assassins were only injured and fell to the ground under his sword and were unable to fight again, and then the officers and soldiers supported each other and fled before coming, Zhu Wenyu and Nangong Lei were also afraid that there would be a second attack by the assassins, so they fell into the plan of diverting the tiger from the mountain, and did not dare to leave Zhu Yuanzhang's side lightly, and watched the assassin flee. Later, when Nangong Lei was killed, he was grief-stricken and indignant, but even if it was Zhang Qianshan standing in front of him, he would only have deep hatred, but it was very difficult to afford to kill. This time I came out to pursue the clues, which was also arranged by the emperor and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and I was a little involuntarily, and the playfulness after coming out was heavier than others. At this time, he was wounded by the sword, and he deeply felt that the other party really wanted to kill him, and his heart was heavy, and he looked at the other party blankly. It's just that no matter what, in the face of this masked killer, he still can't get up with this killing intent in his heart, just thinking about how to defeat the other party, capture it, ask it carefully, and then hand it over to the official government and yamen to deal with it according to the law.
His head is still a little chaotic, and he doesn't know how to deal with the other party for a while, this is not like the previous fights, even if he finishes fighting, he can't run if he can't fight, and he can't be too heavy, at this time, the man in black in front of him is bent on killing himself under the sword, how to deal with it, he really doesn't know the bottom of his heart.
Just as he was stunned, the masked man had woken up, swung his sword again, and the attack was still a sword move of the South China Sea faction, and the move was ruthless.
Zhu Wenyu is not very familiar with the sword moves of the South China Sea faction, and many sword moves have never been seen by the guards from the South China Sea faction, but that kind of ruthless style, the sword has adapted to the way of the edge, with his first-class skills at this time and the unpredictable rebound body light skills, it is naturally not a problem to deal with this masked man, but he just wants to capture alive, and some deadly tricks do not want to use them, but blindly use some soft swordsmanship , Changbai swordsmanship "Lin Hai line", thunder swordsmanship "Thunder Lightning Fall", ruthless swordsmanship "slashing love silk", miscellaneous more than a dozen moves all came out, Zhu Wenyu in addition to the "Thunder Swordsman" Nangong Lei taught a set of swordsmanship and Nangong family master "Ruthless Sword" Nangong Wang taught a set of swordsmanship, has never learned a complete set of swordsmanship, all of them are made up of one move, and it is also thanks to his natural intelligence, he has practiced all the swordsmanship of different styles of this sect extremely proficiently, so that it doesn't take any brains at all, and he comes out casually, I don't think about which school of swordsmanship at all, sometimes even in the middle of the sword as a palm mixed with a move from the most ordinary Wudang long fist evolved from the sword move, others can't know the number of his swordsmanship, this is like fighting with a completely disorderly hooligan ruffian, but this ruffian's sword move but from time to time there are one or two thrilling tricks, and sometimes some of the most ordinary tricks are used together but have extraordinary power and wonderful use, I saw him move after move, one move after another, one move like a move, But the greetings are all shoulders, backs, thighs and other places, even if they pass in the direction of the throat, it is just a false move, and it is obvious that they want to capture the other party alive.
