26. Grounding
"Whew!"
The snow has not stopped, and the north wind is bitter.
Suddenly saw a black shadow walking on the silent long street, as light as a swallow, as if stepping on snow and flying, like an arrow.
Behind him there were shouts and shouts, and the torches were approaching, killing every step of the way.
"The thief is gone!"
But it was the disciples of the Divine Hand Sect who were lucky enough not to die, and they were all in hot pursuit.
And beside these people, there are still dozens of Qing soldiers and Ouchi masters.
But it's a big battle.
The assassin was fleeing with his twin knives in hand, but his chest was heaving violently, like a leaking bellows, and it was difficult to catch his breath. She not only had knife wounds on her body, but also palm wounds, arrow wounds on her back, oozing blood, and with her breath, it seemed to be poured into the cotton clothes by an inexplicable suction.
The breath gradually couldn't be contained, and a ball of blood began to overflow on the black scarf that Lin Hei'er covered his face, and then he choked with a puff, and the blood arrow that spit out on the face towel immediately rushed out of the distance, revealing a slightly dark face, stubborn, heroic, ruthless, and delicate.
"It's a pity that the incident is imminent, but he will die under the knife."
She sighed in her heart, her breath was weak, and even her pace slowed down, but looking at the "Eight Great Hutongs" that she could already see, Lin Hei'er's petite body seemed to burst out with a miraculous force, and the speed was raised again.
"Hmph, at the end of the strong crossbow, why don't you just catch it!"
Two big internal masters suddenly climbed the eaves and walked on the wall, from one side of the roof overturned, one of them stretched out his arms, shrunk his legs and raised his waist, like a goshawk pounced on a rabbit, probing his claws to take it, and one person was flipped into the air, and he rose up with a punch, which approached Lin Heier's heart.
Without looking at it, Lin Heier raised his knife to meet him, flipped his back with a knife, blocked a punch behind him, and stabbed with a knife, and the shadow of the knife swallowed and contracted, straight in and out, forcing the man to change his moves.
"Wow!"
After the heart suddenly hurts, the fist comes through the knife, and the stinging pain penetrates the heart.
Lin Hei'er vomited blood in her mouth, and her feet were already floating and staggering, if it weren't for the previous fierce battle with the surnamed Feng in the Shenshou Gate, the strength was exhausted, and these two unpopular martial artists would not be able to enter her eyes at all.
The eagle claw man saw the opportunity, turned over and lifted it again, when the air was empty, the eagle claw buckled, and he had already taken the knife to Lin Hei'er's right wrist, and the other hand was the first three fingers and a buckle, grabbing the back of his neck.
Shaking his wrist and shaking his arm, Lin Hei'er picked up his fingertips, the knife in his hand suddenly floated like a butterfly, and was sucked by a suction in the palm of his hand.
"How daring!"
The other person glared angrily, and took the opportunity to punch again, and with a flip of his fist, he knocked on Lin Hei'er's right shoulder with a knife.
With a snort in pain, Lin Hei'er had already fallen to the ground and rolled out.
Seeing the big wave of Qing soldiers approaching quickly, Lin Hei'er closed her eyes as if she was resigned to her fate, and she didn't want to struggle anymore.
"Two against one, bullying a woman, what kind of man is it!"
I don't want a person to suddenly burst out of the alley at this time, covering his face with a black cloth, his feet are in the air, the person has jumped in front of Lin Hei'er, and he raised his foot and hooked his feet between the electric lights and flints, and stopped the right fist swung by the master of the big one, and the other foot was on the tip of the ground like a spinning top, rolling up the snow all over the ground, and the dodge had gone around to the side of the two masters, and his palms were raised again, and he quickly carried Lin Hei'er to escape in a few moves.
The pursuers arrived, but they saw the two Ouchi masters standing still in the snow, and when they looked at the front, they had been dead for a long time.
……
Following.
The light of the sky slanted through the window paper and fell into the house.
"Master, why are you up so late today? I brought the rice. ”
Hearing the movement outside the door, the quilt on the kang was lifted, and a figure was like a thief stealing a man, completely forgetting that he was only wearing a belly pocket and a pair of pants that had been cut, his slender thighs were tightened and loosened, and his slender waist was twisted.
Chen Zhuo glanced at the person above his head and saw that he was hiding, so he put on his clothes and opened the door.
"Why is your complexion so bad?" Liang Chaoyun saw that his face was tired, and couldn't help but ask worriedly, hurriedly put the food on the table, and stared at Chen Zhuo carefully, then frowned, and got closer, his nose twitched again and again, and his eyes gradually became puzzled, "What a big smell of sweat, I practiced again last night?" Senior Brother Zuo didn't say it all, don't be too aggressive, be careful of hurting your body. ”
Chen Zhuo's mouth answered vaguely twice, and the words changed suddenly, "Have you eaten it?" The master is not here, and she is alone in the dart game and can't go out for a walk, you remember to talk to the master more, don't worry about me. ”
Liang Chaoyun's little face was cold and red, but his eyes were bright, and he said with a white smile in his mouth: "I know that my sister has taught me a lot of things these days...... By the way, what about Senior Brother Zuo? ”
Chen Zhuo still wanted to quickly take this girl away, and when he heard this, his breath paused slightly, "Senior Brother Zuo is not in the dart game?" ”
Liang Chaoyun said: "No, Master Cheng said that he didn't see anyone last night and didn't know where he went." ”
Chen Zhuo frowned, "Okay, I'll go out to look for it after dinner later, and you can also go back to the house to guard the master, the capital is not peaceful these days, remember to take care of yourself." ”
Hearing the advice, Liang Chaoyun smiled and bent his eyes, nodded, and turned back to the front yard.
"Whew!"
Seeing people walking away, Chen Zhuo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he closed the door.
Looking back, a person rushed down from the beam of the house like a thief, and got into the quilt in the blink of an eye.
"At present, forty or ninety percent of martial law is under martial law, the capital should not be able to get out, you are hiding here for the time being, since Master Cheng acquiesced to your existence in his heart, he should not say anything, and he will talk about it after a few days of recovery."
Gu Yu hid his body, and suddenly said, "Chen Zhuo, come here!" Bring the dressing too! ”
Chen Zhuo approached suspiciously.
Then he saw Gu Yu wrapping himself in a quilt, and stretched out his hand to pull his cotton clothes out, revealing the scars on his shoulders, the skin and flesh were scorched, and the flesh and blood were blurred, and he was really cruel to himself.
Gu Yu applied the wound medicine to the wound while saying very seriously, "That Feng Jianqing is not trivial, it is the palace monkey encountered, if you miss the opportunity, there is a chance that there will be more defeats and fewer victories, if you are not sure, don't act impulsively." ”
While speaking, with the movement of her hands, her armpits suddenly emptied, but the quilt slipped down, and the scenery was exposed for a while.
Gu Yu's face turned red, and he hurriedly folded the quilt again, and then said softly: "You and I are now life and death, and I have nothing to be hypocritical, so I will simply leave you a thought tonight." If you are willing, we will give you the title of the Great Protector of the White Lotus Sect, as soon as this order comes out, the disciples of the three families of the North and South Martial Arts, the Five Lakes and the Four Seas, Fanqing, Hong, and Bai all hear the order to worship you, and the three sects and the nine streams have to retreat. ”
Chen Zhuo has no interest in the position of the protector of this rebel professional household, those few died miserably last night, he doesn't want to be wary of others from time to time and become a short-lived ghost.
Besides, the number of lives has been revealed, and he will die.
What is murder?
The fate of the great murderer will not end well, and he is destined to be defeated at the hands of others.
Seeing that Chen Zhuo was silent and did not speak immediately, Gu Yu's eyes darkened imperceptibly, and the excitement rising in his eyes also turned to loneliness and disappointment, but it was quickly hidden very well.
"Yes, you apprenticed to Wang Wuye, and you have learned from Cheng Lao, and your future achievements are limitless, I can't say that you are a martial arts master, a giant in the rivers and lakes, how can you look down on us such a crooked way that is not black and white, and you have tarnished your name with nothing."
Chen Zhuo sat with his back to him, thinking about where Zuo Zongsheng could go if he didn't return overnight, he was so anxious that he didn't pay attention to the change in the tone of the person behind him, and just replied: "Don't think too much, take care of your injuries." ”
Seeing that the wound on his shoulder was almost dressed, Gu Yu bandaged the wound again, and Chen Zhuo put on his clothes and covered the door.
But as soon as he arrived in the front yard, he saw Zuo Zongsheng push the door in, and was about to step forward to greet him, his expression changed suddenly, he hurriedly shrank back, and his eyes stood, and he saw Zuo Zongsheng carrying a big bag, like a thief, looking nervous, and holding a lot of things in his hands, such as a lot of rice, noodles, meat and vegetables.
Especially the big bag on his body, he can move twice.
"Tut-tut, it's terrible, your master is almost forty years old in his life before marrying a wife and having children, but his apprentice is more capable than the other, and even if he is sneaky, this kid simply steals back to the individual and makes a living."
Chen Zhuozheng peeked at his head, still muttering in his heart which Zuo Zongsheng was singing, and he poked his head over coldly, and he was still talking to himself, wiping his glasses from time to time.
It was Cheng Tinghua.
Chen Zhuo's face was expressionless, "Uncle Shi, you are right, my senior brother likes to be sneaky when he does things." ”
Cheng Tinghua's eyes slanted and pursed his lips, "Boy, don't talk about people, go back to the house and take a look, you go out with your front foot, and the girl will leave with her back foot, wearing your clothes, tsk, your body is rare in the world, much more powerful than you!" ”
Seeing that it was broken, Chen Zhuo's body tightened, and the old man undoubtedly knew that he participated in the slaughter of the "Divine Hand Gate" last night.
His lips moved, and he opened his mouth and said, "Uncle Shi......"
The old man said slowly: "I went to the Shenshou Gate before, and I asked for the corpses that had lost their heads, and I put a gossip stick in them, and I felt sorry for me." As for the monkey, digging out his heart and liver, the means are extraordinary, my senior brother has been out of the imperial city, although he is not very good, but with him, as long as that person is still in the capital, it will be difficult to escape death. ”
"Yin Fu is out of the palace?"
Chen Zhuo's eyes condensed slightly when he heard this, as if he wanted to think of something, and was about to move, when he suddenly felt an extra hand on his shoulder, and in the next second, a strange force struck, and in an instant, Chen Zhuo seemed to be falling into an infinite whirlpool, his hands and feet were uncontrollable, and the sky was spinning, as if he had lost his center of gravity.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say a few words, but suddenly he seemed to see something, his pupils shrank, and he suddenly closed his mouth, and could only listen respectfully.
I saw Cheng Tinghua standing in the snow without any movement, but there was an undercurrent surging under the clothes, as if there were dragons and snakes swimming away, and in a moment, the snow petals that fell on the surface of the clothes had rolled down silently, as if they had been pulled down by an invisible hand.
Glancing at Chen Zhuo, Cheng Tinghua's feet sank and lifted, and when he moved away, there were already two more clear and distinct footprints on the masonry, about two inches deep, and then he took a few steps, step by step, and walked out of a circle with a wide path.
"See this circle of footprints, from now on, you will give me four hours to come over every day, windy and snowy, thunder and rain will also have to bear for me, the things outside have nothing to do with us, you have never been to the Shenshou Gate, practice steadily. It's only been a month since you came, and you have made so many big noises, and if you don't knock and knock you, and grind your temperament, I think you have to turn against the sky and cause a big disaster! ”
"Senior brother, have you made Uncle Shi angry?"
Zuo Zongsheng was moving things into the house like a thief, and just as he wanted to take a breath, he saw the two people in the martial arts arena, their eyes were facing each other, and they couldn't avoid it, so they could only say hello hard.
Cheng Tinghua glanced at the two of them, and reprimanded with a cold face: "None of them are worry-free...... From now on, this kid will be grounded for a month, you senior brother will show me him, if he dares to go out, break his legs, if he wants to go out, I will break your legs, lest someone be beaten to death one day, let's go collect his body. ”
After speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left.
