Chapter 212: Fatal Blow
Hearing that Baili Huan was Gu Shengchao's sworn brother, King Zhong smiled and said, "Then I'm sorry, today is the death day of your two brothers."
There was a dull sound when the iron maces in Zhongwang's hands collided, and he took a few steps forward and swung his double maces at them.
The iron shovel was already heavy, and it was as easy as a child's toy in the hands of King Zhong, which shows that he not only has strong internal strength, but also brute strength.
The sword in Gu Shengchao's hand seemed to be thin, and he dared to fight him with his extraordinary internal strength, and raised his sword to parry with a "bell".
Baili Huan was slightly inferior, and when he saw his iron shovel smashing with the sound of the wind, he first dodged sideways, and then stabbed the opponent in the lower abdomen with his sword.
Zhongwang Yi is bold, and he is not afraid of one enemy and two enemies, and a pair of iron wedges dance like tigers, so that Gu Shengchao and Baili Huan can't get close easily.
It seems to be unstoppable, but King Chung still underestimates the true strength of his opponent.
After the initial ignorance, with Baili Huan sitting next to him, Gu Shengchao calmed down and immediately had a strategy against the enemy.
The loyal king is infinitely powerful, why should he fight hard with his rhythm?
In the West Cold Country, they dealt with Yu Zhenyu, the leader of the Tianqing Gang, and his erratic displacement left a deep impression on Gu Shengchao, why did he forget about these at this time?
Thinking of this, Gu Shengchao pretended to fight side by side with Baili Huan, and when King Zhong's attention was focused on them, he suddenly turned behind King Zhong.
King Zhong was horrified, and the iron shovel followed.
Gu Shengchao had already dodged to the left side of King Zhong at this moment, and stabbed him in the shoulder with a sword without any suspense, and then his wrist shook and cut off the muscles and bones of his shoulder. King Zhong's left arm suddenly drooped, and the iron shovel was thrown to the ground.
"Ahh
King Zhong screamed, followed by a cold snort.
It turned out that Baili Huan took advantage of King Zhong's defenselessness and cut off his right shoulder with a sword.
As soon as his arms were broken and broken, King Chung knew that his fate was hanging by a thread, and jumped into the air and fled into the distance.
At this moment, it is dark, and it is extremely difficult to catch up once you flee away.
Bai Li Huan and Gu Shengchao had a heart, and at the same time threw the long sword in their hands.
A sword slashed at King Chung's legs, and a sword stabbed him in the back of the heart.
Although King Chung had lost both arms, his kung fu was still there, and when he heard the wind behind him, he forcibly twisted his body to dodge the sword that pierced his heart, kicked off the swirling sword with both feet, and was about to leap away with his strength.
"Poof!"
At the critical moment, a scimitar flew in the air, impartially slashing his throat, and a cloud of blood mist erupted from his neck.
With a "plop", King Chung fell to the ground, convulsed a few times and never moved again.
Immediately after, a petite figure leaped over, caught the whirling scimitar in mid-air, and slashed off King Chung's head with a swing when he landed.
Bai Li Huan and Gu Shengchao arrived one after another, took back their respective swords, and Gu Shengchao took the head of King Zhong and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Lu Jin."
He turned to look at the people who were fighting and shouted, "The loyal king is dead, and if you retreat quickly, you will kill those who still resist without mercy."
The voice is high-pitched and vibrates in front of the mountain.
When the people in the scuffle heard the movement, they all looked this way.
Gu Shengchao threw the head of King Zhong at them: "We are the officials of the imperial court, and it is a great crime for you to kill officers and soldiers indiscriminately."
He saw that someone in the Wuwang Palace was still hesitating, so he stepped forward and swung his sword to cut down a few people, and the rest of the people saw that the situation was not good, and immediately scattered as birds and beasts, and fled in all directions.
Counting the casualties, five people were killed and more than 10 were slightly wounded.
This time, thanks to Lu Jin's alertness, she saw that she was outnumbered, and opened a few boxes in time and threw out the gold, silver and jewelry inside.
People die for money, birds die for food, and everyone in the Wuwang Palace saw that every car was loaded with treasures, regardless of the current enemy and rushed forward to rob it, which relieved the pressure of the siege.
If it weren't for that, there would have been more casualties.
Compared to human life, the lost jewels are nothing to lose.
Clean up the battlefield and bury the dead one by one.
Because of the casualties in the team, and the fear that the Martial King Palace would besiege again, everyone was depressed
, can't beat the spirit.
Gu Shengchao had walked this road and knew that there was a county town nearby, so he led the team to rush there overnight.
No matter how vicious the Wuwang Palace is, he doesn't dare to openly attack the yamen and commit murder in public.
Gu Shengchao showed his military department squire certificate, and the county commander did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly vacated a place for Gu Shengchao and his party to live and stack materials.
The former Yunzhou Taishou who was imprisoned in the team, Gu Shengchao was afraid that he would escape, and the meridians retrograde pointed at his acupuncture points, so that he could not walk and was imprisoned.
It was late at night, Gu Shengchao and Baili Huan discussed countermeasures, and Lu Jin made tea and waited beside him.
"This girl is ......" Bai Lihuan was not sure about the relationship between the two, and asked tentatively.
Gu Shengchao said helplessly: "She is the daughter of Lu Yuanding, the deputy helmsman of the boat gang, named Lu Jin, we eradicate pirates together in Yunzhou, she volunteered to stay in order to thank me for saving their lives, and I have no choice."
Baili Huan looked at Lu Jin: "Yes, it just so happens that my trip is to go to the boat gang, is there anything I need to bring over?"
"Yes, Brother Baili only needs to tell the deputy gang leader Diao Zhan to his old man's house, I am very good on Big Brother Gu's side, tell him not to worry. It would be better if I could see my father, and tell him not to worry about it." Lu Jin was afraid that Diao Zhan would forget the agreement between them and would not be able to repay their family's debts as agreed.
"Be sure to bring the words." Baili happily agreed.
Gu Shengchao wondered: "Why did Brother Baili pass by here? The Heroes' Meeting should have ended a long time ago, right?"
Bai Li Huan nodded: "All the sects have already left Fanzhou, I have something to delay in the capital for many days, and I went to see their son-in-law at the invitation of the boat gang, and I happened to pass by here."
Lu Jin poured tea into their teacups: "Brother Baili is right, I also heard about this when I came, our helper's child has a strange disease, and we sincerely invite the world's famous doctors to go and treat it, as long as the prescription works, the child will recognize the other party as a godfather or godmother."
"I visited a few old friends in the capital, just to get their prescriptions, and then combine them with my own prescriptions to get rid of the disease." Baili Huan took a sip of tea.
Gu Shengchao asked, "Have you collected the prescription for the eldest brother?"
Baili nodded happily: "My old friends are indifferent to fame and fortune, they have prescribed medicines to me, and no one has ever thought of going to the boat to show their skills in person."
Gu Shengchao scratched his head: "The eldest brother went to the boat gang, what should the younger brother do here?"
Baili Huan laughed and said, "The affairs of the government are naturally handled by the government, and we can't allow people in the rivers and lakes to interfere."
Gu Shengchao didn't know: "Does the eldest brother mean to ask me to ask the court for help?"
"Of course, no matter how powerful the sect is, it will not dare to openly confront the imperial court, and no one can afford to hit a stone with an egg." Baili Huan said firmly.
Gu Shengchao arched his hand and said, "Then there will be Brother Lao to help take care of it for a few days, and the younger brother will go to the capital to move the rescue soldiers."
"You, what's polite to me, it's okay for me to stay a few more days, you have to be careful all the way." Bai Lihuan patted him on the shoulder.
Without further ado, Gu Shengchao rode a BMW overnight to chase the wind and came to the capital to explain the situation to the emperor.
The emperor was also furious when he heard this, remembering that the Wuwang Palace was a brother of the same clan, and it had not yet reached the point of tearing his face, so he endured it for the time being, and waited for the autumn queen to settle the accounts and deal with it together.
He ordered the Imperial Forest Army to transfer a team of men and horses to return with Gu Shengchao to escort the important prisoners and treasures back to Beijing.
Gu Shengchao led the Imperial Forest Army back to the county office, and only after making sure that there was no obstacle did he and Baili Huan have a good drink.
Reluctantly saying goodbye to Baili Huan, Gu Shengchao led a large team of men and horses to escort the important criminals and treasures on the road.
Along the way, strangers galloped by in twos and threes, checking the situation of the team, and later estimated that they did not dare to make a mistake with the Royal Forest Army, and they disappeared in the next few days.
When the team entered the capital, Gu Shengchao's hanging heart finally landed.
The front of the Royal Forest Army opened the way, and the people watching on the side of the road cast envious eyes, and Gu Shengchao felt so imposing when he rode on the horse, and his body couldn't help but straighten up
。
Suddenly, a familiar face was seen in the crowd, looking towards the procession.
Gu Shengchao waved frequently, and the man waited for Gu Shengchao to get close before he found him, and he was overjoyed and hurriedly waved his hand in response.
"Big Brother Gu!" Dong E jumped up and down excitedly, lest Gu Shengchao couldn't see her.
"I'll go back later." Gu Shengchao told her.
"Got it." Dong E turned around and ran away, wanting to tell Liu Ximei as soon as possible. She didn't expect that there was a woman with a bamboo basket behind her, and the two bumped into each other.
The woman's bamboo basket fell, and the red dates inside were also scattered on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Dong E apologized again and again and helped pick up the jujubes.
Gu Shengchao shook his head and sighed: This girl is good at everything, but she can't change her hairy problems.
First to Dali Temple to hand over the prisoners, gold, silver and jewelry into the register of the household department for safekeeping, Gu Shengchao then entered the palace to the emperor to report.
Wu Zong came to the rescue at a critical moment, although it was a matter between their brothers, Gu Shengchao also asked for a commendation.
The emperor was satisfied and said, "With such a sect serving my Great Martial Dynasty, the Martial King Palace is not a cause for concern, and the Spring Gang and the Boat Gang have made miraculous contributions to exterminate pirates, and they will also be rewarded."
The entourage worked hard, especially in the battle with King Wu, and many people were killed and wounded, and the emperor ordered to compensate the dead and reward the living soldiers.
Seeing that everyone had been rewarded accordingly, Gu Shengchao left the palace after completing his official duties.
Lu Jin was waiting outside the palace, and when he saw Gu Shengchao coming out, he stepped forward and said aggrievedly: "Shall we find an inn to live in first, I am already hungry, and I want to make up for something, but I am afraid that you will not find me when you come out, so I have to endure it all the time."
Gu Shengchao smiled and said, "What inn do you stay in when you go back to the capital, we have a home."
"Really?" Lu Jin was suspicious, got on the horse and followed behind Gu Shengchao.
Back in the mansion and tied the horses, Gu Shengchao led Lu Jin into the inner courtyard, Liu Ximei led Dong E and Yu Chiyao, and Zhu Zhenyu were busy, and the tempting aroma wafted out of the kitchen.
"Who is this?" Liu Ximei asked uneasily when she saw Lu Jin.
"Hello sister-in-law." Without waiting for Gu Shengchao's introduction, Lu Jin took the initiative to step forward and salute: "I am a disciple of the Boat Gang, my name is Lu Jin. Brother Gu saved the lives of my whole family, and my father asked me to follow Brother Gu as a maid to serve him in order to repay his great kindness."
"That's fine." Liu Ximei didn't ask much, but added a few questions in her heart.
Gu Shengchao bathed and changed clothes, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he didn't see Liu Ximei and they had plans to eat, so he couldn't help but whisper, "We are all hungry, when will the lady have dinner?"
Liu Xi smiled: "What's the hurry, there are still distinguished guests who have not arrived tonight."
"Who?" Gu Shengchao asked curiously, and Liu Ximei just smiled and said nothing.
Not long after, someone walked into the courtyard quickly, Gu Shengchao raised his eyes and looked, although the person at the head was a woman, his sassy and heroic posture revealed a murderous aura, which made people frightened.
He was followed by two women, one of whom was holding a baby in his arms, staring around curiously with wide eyes.
