The purple color on the edge of the sky began to slowly turn into a faint gold, and the city of Anzhou, which had been silent all night, seemed to wake up from a deep sleep.

The streets have begun to be filled with small vendors carrying their goods and starting to walk to the market.

Wooden doors on both sides of the cold street were opened, and hot air wafted out of them.

Along with the heat, there is also a wisp of enchanting insects. Along with these vendors, there were also guards on various small platforms on the Twelve Yuan Chen Road.

They had now received an order not to open the various passages down the mountain for the time being. However, this made people who were about to go up and down the mountain crowd at the entrance of the mountain road and talk vigorously.

Some people say that there was a big murder in Anzhou Prefecture, others say that there was civil strife in Anzhou Prefecture, and some people say that the lord of the city was assassinated in the Jiedu Envoy's mansion at the birthday banquet of the Jiedu Envoy last night······ Anyway, there was everything to say, and for a while, the people who were ready to pass on the Twelve Yuanchen Road were talking.

And among these people are Hai Yin, An Le and Xu Yan and other people. At this time, each of them was carrying a small bag on their backs, holding some steamed buns in their hands, and eating steamed buns while listening to the discussions of the people around them.

It looks like an idler who loves to listen to gossip. It's just that the people around don't know that it was the companions of these guys in front of them who caused the Twelve Yuanchen Dao to be sealed.

"I said, brother, where did you hear that the city lord was assassinated?" Hearing the excitement, Xu Yan didn't forget to ask. And the guy who was still foaming at the stars just now immediately seemed to have found a soulmate, and instantly cast an appreciative glance at Xu Yan.

"You don't know, my cousin is the guard who works in the Jiedu Envoy's mansion, I heard him say that last night the Jiedu Envoy's mansion came, and the assassin directly drew his sword and killed the Jiedu Envoy in front of everyone." The guy was talking and drawing, as if he were there.

"Nonsense, the banquet of the Lord of the Festival must be heavily guarded, why can an assassin enter the banquet with a sword and assassinate the Lord of the City in public." A man next to him with his hands in his cuffs said disdainfully.

"What do you know, I heard that the man hid his sword in the flower bed of the Jiedu Envoy's mansion in advance, and he used the excuse of going to Xijing at the birthday banquet and then threw the sword before killing the city lord."

"Pure nonsense, what kind of grudge does this assassin have against the city lord and wants the city lord's life?" The other person didn't believe the man in front of him either.

"You don't know, I heard that the city lord's latest concubine and this assassin are childhood sweethearts, and the city lord snatched the love of the assassin before he became angry at the crown." Seeing that this guy said eloquently, the people around him nodded one after another, in their opinion, the city lord has always been criticized for marrying concubines.

And just as Xu Yan continued to talk to this person, a group of soldiers from the city guard battalion in Anzhou Prefecture were running towards the Moon Full Tower in full gear, and soon they came to the Moon Full Tower.

"Fence off the full moon building for me, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, not even a fly." Lu Hua commanded the actions of the soldiers of the city guard battalion with a serious face.

Soon the moon was full, and a chubby man hurriedly ran out of the building. The man was dressed in a brocade robe, with a slightly wide hood wrapped around his head.

"Hey, why is Lord Deer? Where did the little shop provoke you, making you so angry and surrounding my store in the morning? The chubby fellow immediately stepped forward and asked with great accord, but his face did not show too much panic.

"Shopkeeper Wei, I am waiting for me today to come to your moon full building to arrest people on the orders of the envoy of the festival and the lord of the city." Lu Hua saw that the shopkeeper's attitude was polite, and he didn't embarrass him too much.

After all, this Moon Full Building is just an ordinary inn on the surface, but behind him is the third lady of the city lord standing.

And this Wei shopkeeper is also the brother of the third lady of the city lord. So under normal circumstances, Lu Hua didn't want to offend him, although today he was ordered by the Lord of the Festival and the Lord of the City.

But after the fact, no one knows how powerful this pillow wind is. As soon as this Wei shopkeeper heard that it was the Lord of Jiedu and the Lord of the City who wanted to arrest people, he didn't dare to slack off and immediately bowed down and said.

"I don't know who Lord Lu wants to arrest, I'll go and check it out for you immediately to see which room the other party lives in." Immediately, a junior next to him immediately ran into the inn to find the account book, and the shopkeeper Wei also walked towards the inn with Luhua.

"What we want to arrest today is a group of people led by Li Yi!" After Lu Hua walked into the inn, a large number of soldiers from the city guard camp also followed.

It felt strange to see so many soldiers from the city guard battalion following up to the shopkeeper of Wei.

"Lord Lu, why do you need to send so many tiger warriors to catch a few young people?" Seeing that the originally empty inn hall was instantly crowded with soldiers from the city guard camp, the little seconders of the moon full building all huddled behind the counter and did not dare to make the slightest movement.

"Hey, do you know that there is a person next to Li Yi who has a special identity, and we have to dispatch so many people."

"Oh? Who is worthy of Lord Lu, you are so excited? Shopkeeper Wei asked in a low voice.

"This man is the number one swordsman in the world! I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture this group of people when there are fewer people to dispatch. Originally, Lu Hua shouldn't have told the shopkeeper Wei about this, but he thought that maybe their city guard camp would have a big battle with Li Yi and others in this moon full building.

At that time, it is inevitable that some things will be broken, which can be regarded as a wake-up call for Shopkeeper Wei in advance.

"The number one assassin in the world? How can such a character have a grudge against me Anzhou? "Shopkeeper Wei is also a well-informed person, and he has also heard the guests who came to stay talk about this world's number one swordsman.

"Hey, I don't dare to say much at this time, you can ask Madame about the specific situation at that time." Lu Hua immediately lowered his voice and said.

"Palm······ Shopkeeper, we checked that the guest named Li Yi left the room with his companions half an hour ago. A shopkeeper said with some trepidation.

"What? Did they check out? Lu Hua immediately felt bad when he heard this, and he dragged through the account books in the small second-hand store to look through them.

Sure enough, he saw the record of Li Yi and the others leaving on the last page of the account book, so he dropped the account book and asked angrily.

"Say! Which direction did those people go? The shopkeeper was so frightened by Lu Hua's angry shout that his legs trembled incessantly.

"Small······ I don't know if it's a little one! The shopkeeper stammered and replied, he was already crying at this time.

"Immediately instruct the brothers guarding the Twelve Yuanchen Road to let him immediately start investigating to see if there is any Li Yi and his party." After thinking for a moment, Lu Hua immediately ordered a city guard battalion soldier beside him.

"I didn't expect us to be a step late!" Lu Hua muttered to himself with some annoyance.

"My lord, the little one heard those thieves say when they checked out half an hour ago that they were going to climb to the highest point of our Anzhou City to watch the sunrise." The other junior saw that Lu Hua was about to leave, and immediately said flatteringly.

"Oh? Tell me more about what you heard. Lu Hua immediately stopped, and then turned his eyes to stare at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper instantly felt as if his body was shrouded in cold, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"What's the matter, don't delay Lord Deer's time." The shopkeeper Wei on the side saw that his shopkeeper was too frightened to speak at this time, so he immediately urged.

"Yes, I'm the one who said it!" The shopkeeper was urged by Shopkeeper Wei and immediately came back to his senses, and then he immediately nodded and said.

"I just opened the door early this morning and saw a group of people coming to check out, at that time I was still wondering if these people were going to check out this day, I was afraid that there was no urgency, so I asked casually." The shopkeeper said vividly.

"And one of the people in that group was dressed as a scribe and said that they went out so early to watch the sunrise, and he also asked us by the way how to get to the highest place in the city of Anzhou." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, Lu Hua immediately commanded the soldiers in the city guard camp.

"Go to the Purple Jade Peak immediately." The soldiers of the city guard battalion immediately lined up and rushed towards the north gate of Anzhou Prefecture.

"Shopkeeper Wei is bothered, if Li Yi and the others can be caught this time, it will definitely be for the sake of asking for credit." Saying that, Lu Hua also rode his war horse and chased the soldiers of the city guard camp towards the north city gate.

When he met a street vendor on the way, Lu Hua would stop and ask if they had seen Li Yi and others.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Lu Hua's originally hanging heart finally let go of some of it. If Li Yi and the others ran to other places, he would still be worried, after all, with the strength of Mu Junhe, the number one swordsman in the world, if he wanted to break through the Twelve Yuan Chen Dao, although the chance of success was not great, there was still this possibility.

But what made him happy was that Li Yi was ready to run to the top of the purple jade, this is simply a way to heaven, he doesn't go to hell, there is no door, he will vote for himself.

To say that this purple jade dome is one of the most famous scenic spots in Anzhou Prefecture, it is more famous than the 12th Yuanchen Road.

This purple jade top is the highest point of this big mountain where Anju Prefecture is located, and it is the peak of the main peak. Hundreds of years ago, when Anzhou Prefecture began to be built, the purple jade roof has existed.

It is said that when the ancestors of Anzhou City were digging Anzhou City, they found an erected boulder on top of this purple jade.

The boulder stands on the top of the mountain in an oval shape, looking crumbling but very stable. Legend has it that the stars of the sky fell here, and when the first rays of morning light hit the stone, it glowed purple.

Therefore, the ancestors of Anzhou Prefecture City believed that this boulder was a piece of purple jade that fell from the sky, and it was a magic weapon of the gods.

Therefore, the peak of this mountain peak is called the purple jade peak. But then the boulder on top of the purple jade suddenly disappeared at an unknown time.

Legend has it that the gods in the sky took the boulder away again. However, as far as Lu Hua knew, the boulder may have been chiseled open by a later Jiedu envoy, and the reason for the chiseling was because the Jiedu envoy believed that the boulder contained treasures.

As a result, when the boulder was chiseled, there was nothing inside, and the envoy was worried that the news would incur the anger of the people of Anzhou, so he quietly transported the broken boulders down the mountain and fabricated the legend that the gods had recovered the boulder.

Later, in order to commemorate the disappeared boulder, the people of Anzhou dug a platform on the top of the purple jade.

The platform is surrounded by cliffs, and there is only a steep staircase to climb on the side of Anju City.

Therefore, as long as this ladder is guarded, no matter how high Mu Junhe's martial arts are, they can be trapped on the top of the purple jade.

Soon the soldiers of the city guard battalion came out of the north gate of Anzhou Prefecture and came to the steep staircase. When they arrived, the sun was already rising on the top of the mountain, and the golden sunlight had dyed the top of the mountain a golden yellow.

Even the faint figures on the top of the mountain turned golden yellow in the sunlight. When he saw the faintly flickering figure on the top of the mountain, Lu Hua was now completely relieved.

In his opinion, this time he was sure of the arrest.

"After all, you still can't escape from our Anzhou City."

"Tell me to go down and leave a group of people to guard this mountain road, and the rest of the people will go up the mountain with me." Immediately, Lu Hua took the lead in climbing towards the top of the mountain, and the others followed him towards the top of the mountain.

The trail is very steep and very narrow, so it is very difficult to climb.

Although Lu Hua is a martial arts practitioner, he has to use both hands and feet to climb this almost vertical ladder.

And the soldiers of the city guard camp behind him were even more difficult. Previously, in order to deal with Mu Junhe, the number one swordsman in the world, Lu Hua asked all the soldiers of the city guard battalion to wear heavy armor.

At first, they were happy that they could save their lives even if they were in danger, but now in the face of this steep staircase, the soldiers of these city guard battalions were already complaining in their hearts.

You must know that the armor on their bodies must weigh more than fifty pounds, and the long knife on their waists must weigh at least sixty pounds of equipment all over their bodies.

The feeling of climbing a mountain with a weight of 60 catties is difficult for ordinary people to experience. Looking at the high staircase, many of the soldiers of the city guard camp began to envy the comrades who stayed behind to guard the mountain road.

Of course, there are also some soldiers in the city guard battalion who have already scolded Li Yi and others in their hearts.

You said that these guys have to run to the top of this purple jade, and they all have to suffer this sin.

"I'm going to have to beat these guys up to the top of the hill and let them run away." A soldier from the city guard battalion whispered angrily as he climbed.

"That's right, when I get up, I'll have to beat them and kneel down and beg for mercy." Another soldier from the City Guard Battalion followed suit.

"You two have to hold on to some strength when they fall, and we have to carry them down ourselves to beat them so that they can't crawl, and we are the ones who suffer when we fall." A soldier of the City Guard Battalion below them reminded them with a smile.

It's just that they didn't know that at this time, Li Yi on the top of the purple jade was standing on the stairs and staring at the soldiers of the city guard camp below.

"It's too slow!" Li Yi said with a smile.
