The timing of action is often fleeting, Li Jiangyao did not delay, pulled out the starfall knife behind his back, jumped out of the staircase, and rushed to the two of them by the window.

The two sentry guys were all personal soldiers trained by Xie Bao himself, and his martial arts foundation was naturally very good, and when he heard a strange noise behind him, they reacted at the same time, and turned their heads to check together.

However, it is a pity that their strength is still a big step behind Li Jiangyao, and the reaction is a reaction, but it is only a reaction.

In the dimly lit room, a black shadow flashed in front of him like a ghost, and then two bright knife lights flashed continuously, and the two of them didn't even snort, they were cut throats and fell to the ground.

Li Jiangyao calmly returned the knife into the sheath, and did not bother to check the dead bodies on the ground, holding on to the window frame to look out. Looking out from this place, you can just take in the view of Jixian Zhai not far away.

He nodded in satisfaction, then turned and walked briskly down the stairs to the entrance of the front hall of the small building. Through the gap between the floor and the staircase, you can clearly see the situation in the hall below.

A man dressed as a lieutenant sat in the hall, sitting or standing around, surrounded by seven or eight Xuanjia soldiers. Although they were all fully armed at this time, it was not difficult to find from their expressions that the emotions of these people were quite relaxed.

Obviously, today's chaos in the city did not affect the side of the Ximen Guard.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of night owls outside the building. Li Jiangyao knew that this was a signal from the Reverse Scale Division, informing everyone to start acting.

Li Jiangyao showed a confident smile on his face, straightened up, and walked down the steps leisurely.

For his unexpected appearance as an uninvited guest, the officers and soldiers of Xuanjia who were staying in the front hall couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

"Who are you?!" The captain couldn't help but get up from his chair and asked loudly.

"Why did you forget?" Li Jiangyao replied unhurriedly: "I was sent by General Di Xian." ”

The lieutenant was slightly stunned when he heard this. At noon, Di Xian did send two people to set up a sentry on the third floor. However, he clearly remembered that there was no young man in front of him among the two.

Did it come later? I happened to be away at the time, so I didn't notice it?

Taking advantage of the captain's hesitation, Li Jiangyao had already walked up to everyone with Shi Shiran, and said with a smile: "I said that Lord Captain, you are really a noble person who forgets things." ”

As he spoke, he reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword. In the next second, Li Jiangyao quickly pulled out the Starfall Knife like lightning, and suddenly attacked the school captain!

Everything happened so fast.

In just the blink of an eye, Li Jiangyao actually slashed ten times in a row, slashing and stabbing like a show of skill, wrapping the captain and the surrounding Xuanjia army in the sword light.

-

The door to the front hall of the squeaky ——, guard was slowly opened from the inside.

As soon as the spies of the Reverse Scale Division knocked down the last guard outside the door with their poisoned bows and crossbows, they happened to see Li Jiangyao's figure appear at the door.

Facing everyone's slightly surprised eyes, he smiled faintly: "Everything in the house is done, how are you doing?" ”

Xiao Wu couldn't help but stretch out his head to take a look inside, looked at the corpses all over the ground and sighed, "My lord, we were still worried just now." There is no movement in the building, I'm afraid you'll ......"

"Afraid of what?" Li Jiangyao smiled nonchalantly: "Afraid that I will miss?" ”

"No, no, I don't dare." Xiao Wuzi hurriedly scratched his head: "You are really powerful." Anyway, the guys in it are all regular soldiers, and they are all officers, and none of them are vegetarians......"

Li Jiangyao patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder: "Come on, don't worry about him being a vegetarian and eating meat, he won't be able to eat anything in the future." What's going on over there? ”

Another secret agent, Luo Jiankun, said, "Don't worry, my lord. The Xuanjia army here is not very vigilant, and after we launched a surprise attack and put down seven or eight with bows and crossbows, the rest surrendered obediently. ”

Li Jiangyao bowed slightly: "Okay!" Hurry up and clean up this place, and inform Qiao Shengchun and Master Huidian separately, it's time to put on a good show of waiting for the rabbit. ”

-

Since this morning, Di Xian has been in a state of nervousness and anxiety.

The eyeliner he left outside the palace sent back all kinds of news non-stop, which made him and Renji feel a little dazzled.

In just a few hours, the entire eastern capital of Luoyi fell into chaos.

Every bad news was like a sledgehammer, slamming on Di Xian's heart. Obviously, all the incidents that broke out outside were deliberately arranged behind the scenes, and the events were interlocking, easily messing up the city's defensive layout.

When he finally heard that Xie Bao led the army out of the city to meet the soldiers of Xiangzhou, the only remaining hope finally came to naught.

"Damn, bad thing!" Di Xian scolded: "Xie Bao, this idiot, has completely fallen for the plan of the Reverse Scale Division, and he is completely led by the nose by the other party!" ”

Lian Ji also agreed, and couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "If the outside is really as reported and has been completely messed up now, it means that the real killing move of the Reverse Scale Division is about to be launched. ”

Di Xian's brows tightened: "The reason why Shen Lie made such a big move is that there is only one goal, Prince Li Bing!" Xie Bao couldn't even see this clearly, he only knew that he had a headache and a foot pain, and he had delayed the big thing in vain! I'm now more and more suspicious that our position here may have been exposed, otherwise, the other party would never have made so many moves in a row. ”

"So what to do?" Lian Ji asked, "Continue to hide in Jixian Zhai?" Or hurry to move elsewhere? ”

Di Xian looked a little worried: "I originally thought that I should first transfer a team of soldiers and horses to help defend it." Anyway, the trail is likely to have been detected by the enemy, so they simply use heavy troops and strengthen their precautions, and wait until they have survived tonight. However, Luoyi was in turmoil, and all the troops in the city were scattered and suppressed by Xie Bao, and no one could be found at all. And he himself led a large army out of the city, and I didn't even have a chance to ask for help! ”

He paused, then continued: "It's only now that I really understand what it's like to be in a 'dilemma'. For today's plan, we can only respond to all changes with the same. ”

Lian Ji wondered, "Isn't there still an army in the palace?" ”

Di Xian shook his head helplessly: "The fire in Ziwei Palace last night burned Xie Bao's subordinates. This morning, in a fit of rage, he withdrew all his troops. ”

"Don't have a backup plan either?" Lian Ji was dissatisfied: "Knowing that the enemy is coming, you still sit here and wait for death? ”

"Yes, yes," Di Xian hesitated: "I can't tell you until I have to." In short, Jixianzhai is safe at present, and we are worried about it, but it is not appropriate to act rashly. I believe that as long as I can survive tonight safely, when Xie Bao comes back with the army, there should be no big problem. ”

Lian Ji was worried about her sister's safety, and said angrily: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I can't even survive tonight......" Who knows, before she finished her words, there was a sudden alarm outside.

The two of them were startled at the same time, and hurriedly picked up their weapons and rushed out of the house.

"What's going on!" Di Xian shouted: "Where is the warning?!" ”

The head of the guard stood on the room and pointed outside: "General, there are assassins!" ”

Di Xian and Lian Ji swept up the wall one after the other, and looked in the direction pointed by the head of the guard.

I saw that two hundred meters away, a large group of guards were coming out of the shadows where they were hiding, desperately blocking and intercepting the two black-clothed assassins, and those two assassins were rushing towards Jixianzhai.

Di Xian and Lian Ji looked carefully, and they couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle.

The skills of the assassins are truly terrifying.

The two of them were wrapped in black night clothes, and only a pair of eyes were exposed on their bodies, and they couldn't tell their age and appearance at all. The only thing that can be seen clearly is their ghost-like figures, as well as their 'terrifying' combat power.

The thirty-five guards who stayed here were all masters of the army carefully selected by Xie Bao and Di Xian. These people are not only skilled in martial arts, but also experienced in a hundred battles and are not afraid of death. Wherever you put it, you can be regarded as an elite with one as ten.

However, what people didn't expect was that these so-called elites were like drooping children in front of those two assassins, completely vulnerable.

Rush up one, fall down the next; Rush up two, fall a pair. I didn't see the two of them use any earth-shattering moves, and they only lightly beat them and rushed the guards who intercepted them to the ground.

The Assassin's movement speed was only slightly slowed down by the guards, and the corresponding position was still approaching Jixianzhai.

"No! Your people can't stop them! Lian Ji hurriedly said: "It must be transferred immediately!" ”

Although Di Xian's martial arts are not a top master, his vision is not bad at all, and his reaction to thinking is quite fast. Of course, he had already seen that with the little strength in his hands, it was completely impossible to stop those two menacing assassins.

If there were hundreds of soldiers here, there might still be some strength, but unfortunately, among the two options of "concealment" and "fortification", he chose the former at the beginning.

In fact, Di Xian's previous thinking cannot be said to be wrong. In the face of the pervasive assassination methods of the Reverse Scale Division, thousands of troops are sometimes ineffective, so "hiding" is more practical than "targeting".

But who would have thought that the Reverse Scale Division was too thief.

If you arrange for heavy troops to guard it, he will use fire, poison, mad rats, plus bribery and plotting, and do everything he can;

But if you don't arrange heavy troops to guard, he will directly send people to break through, and he will still send that kind of martial arts master.

Right now, Di Xian's carefully arranged guards can only try their best to drag each other through desperate fighting. But everyone knew that it was only slowing down the Assassins. Once the guards are all put down by the other party, the few people in Jixian Zhai will completely become lambs to the slaughter.

Di Xian had no time to sigh at this time, "The killer of the Reverse Scale Division is terrible", he must now race against time to buy more time before reinforcements arrive.

"Lianhime, take them to retreat through the small door at the back!" Di Xian said in a deep voice: "Go in that direction, it is the Ximen Guardhouse, which is garrisoned by three hundred troops, and the small building of the guard station also has defensive capabilities!" Let's go there and wait for help. Fast! I'll break it off! With that, he shook his sword and jumped off the wall.

Lian Ji didn't dare to delay at this time, and when she heard this, she flew to the ground and broke directly into the main hall of Jixian Zhai.
