When they came, Lu Chen and the others hurried day and night, carrying dry food with them, and stayed in the city at night when they walked to the city, and stayed in the woods when they walked to the woods, and they didn't even look carefully at the green trees and red flowers along the road. The return journey is a leisurely walk, but it is close to the cold winter wax moon, the leaves are falling all over the ground, and the north wind is biting.

Heading north, the crowd finally arrived in the capital in mid-November. At this time, it was just in time for the first snow in the capital. The white snowflakes fluttered and spilled on the general's armor, and they also melted away the murderous aura of his body.

After returning victoriously, rewarding meritorious deeds, night banquets, visits, and personal exchanges, these are just these things, and they are no different from usual. Lu Boyan is a competent emperor, and all the reward process is as if he has experienced it countless times, even if it is his first time.

Ten miles outside the capital, Chunbo Pavilion.

Lu Chen was wearing a snow-white cloak, with a long jade body, a straight back, his eyes looked into the distance, and only the same person stood behind him.

In the distance, a group of men rode up. Seeing Lu Chen in the pavilion, the man in charge seemed to look back and order a few words to the people next to him, then dismounted and came to the pavilion.

"General Zhao, I'll give you a ride." Lu Chen bowed his head and arched his hand.

It turned out that the group of people were Zhao Chong and others who were about to leave Beijing and return to Guanzhong today.

Zhao Chong took Lu Chen's arm with both hands and said, "Lord Lu is polite, the weather is cold, Lord Lu's friendship, I, Zhao Chong, know and remember it in my heart." ”

Although Lu Chen and Zhao Chong have only intersected for a few days, they know that he is a northwestern man with a true temperament, and he disdains superficial things about people he doesn't like, let alone flattery. "In the northwest, it was Lu Chen's luck to be able to get to know General Zhao, and General Zhao's temperament and martial arts also made Lu Chen admire. In the future, you will be able to find a useful place, please do not be polite, the mountains are high and the water is long, and there will be a goodbye day. ”

"Sending you a thousand miles must be goodbye in the end, Brother Lu Chen go back, see you again." Zhao Chong seemed to be accustomed to parting, and waved his hand and strode away.

After a long time, Lu Tong stepped forward and tightened Lu Chen's cloak, and said, "Son, let's go back too, my lord, they are still waiting in the mansion." ”

Lu Chen nodded silently, followed the footprints of Zhao Chong's departure, and walked towards the horse.

Suddenly, it was too late, Lu Chen flew up from the horse, and at the same time shouted to be careful, and Lu Tong also jumped off the horse, so as to avoid the disaster of people turning over on their backs. Raising their swords to cut off dozens of crossbow arrows from both sides, the two quickly found a big tree as a shelter, back-to-back to guard against sneak attacks around.

Before they could catch their breath, the two suddenly pushed each other away, avoiding the majestic stab in the tree.

Lu Chen squinted and said, "Chiyang Gate Chuan with a knife? ”

The man who came down from the tree wore a full-face mask, and his body was small, but he made a large knife that did not match his body shape at all, the knife was deep and heavy, and the blade was as strong as a cold light, and it was even sharper in this cold weather.

A hint of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, but he didn't speak. In response to Lu Chen, it was a new round of offensive.

Lu Chen knew that he had encountered hard stubble today. Chuan Yidao's real name is not verifiable, Lu Chen checked the information of all of them when he first knew about Chiyangmen, and even did an in-depth investigation of several key figures, but he didn't get much information. As the number one killer sect in the rivers and lakes, Chiyang Sect has many killers in the door, according to Lu Chen's understanding, they have at least twenty first-class killers, 100 second-class killers, countless third-class killers, and countless other part-time killers.

In addition to this, there are three special killers.

Chuan Yidao is one of the three.

According to rumors, Chuan Yidao only recognizes money, not people, as long as the buyer can afford to pay, he never misses, otherwise he will not take a penny. No one knows his real name, age, or appearance. He has always worn a mask when he goes out on missions, and no one has ever seen his true face, and some people may have seen his face, but they have all become the ghost of his sword.

Because of this, his sword skills are passed down by the people in the rivers and lakes. It's just that there are very few people who have seen him shoot, and he never competes with others, so he is not on the list of masters in the rivers and lakes.

But Lu Chen once heard Shen Yiping talk about this person, he was only eighteen years old at the time, just out of the school, Shen Yiping analyzed many masters on the rivers and lakes, including this person who saw those who wanted to hide.

Lu Chen understood what Master meant, people who walk the rivers and lakes have many enemies and more friends, so if it is not for deep hatred, there will probably be room for making a move. But the people of Chiyangmen are different, they make a living by killing people, and Chuan Yidao is even worse, it is rumored that he refuses to fight against the masters of the rivers and lakes, because he only practices killing people. People who beg for a living on the tip of the knife are in danger of their own reputation, and this is especially true for others.

Lu Chen also remembered this person when he saw his knife, it is rumored that the people who died in the Sichuan One Knife mission were all killed with one knife, cleanly. It is enough to see that his swordsmanship is superb and his martial arts are first-class.

Huh~ After Lu Chen forced Chuan to retreat with a sword with a broken sword, he caught a glimpse of Lu Tongyi next to him who was encircled and was encouraging support, and quickly took out a signal flare from his waist and threw it into the air. When Kawachito found out and wanted to intercept it, it was still too late.

Seeing this, whether it was Chuan Yidao in front of Lu Chen or the many killers around Lu Tong, they all accelerated the moves in their hands.

In the face of Chuan Yidao, although Lu Chen could not win in a fight, it was not a problem to fight for a tie with ninety percent of his strength. The real danger is Lu Tong. Those besiegers are far less agile than Chuan Yidao, but they are also murderous and awe-inspiring, and they have practiced martial arts with Lu Chen for many years, and they can not fall behind with one enemy and two Lu Tong, but now it is different, dozens of masters know that they will only interfere with Chuan Yidao's debut speed, so they ignore Lu Chen's side, and are attacking Lu Tong with all their might, and in just one stick of incense, Lu Tong has five or six sword wounds on his body. And as his injuries worsened, his footsteps gradually slowed down, and his sword was no longer decisive, and the situation was critical for a while.

Seeing that it was difficult for reinforcements to arrive for a while, Lu Chen shouted, and threw the long sword in his hand hard, and Chuan Yidao realized that at this moment, the sword was no longer a sword, but two sharp blades connected by iron chains. Long as a whip, hard as a stone, and sharp as a sword.

This is Lu Chen in his full form.

This sword was specially built by Lu Chen, and the materials were exquisite, and he could carry it with him at any time. Under normal circumstances, he only uses the long sword form, and the chain sword is his self-created registration stunt, which has saved him several times when his life is at stake. Therefore, he named Aijian Noji.

This time it was the same, with the self-created Noji Tailai Sword, Lu Chen defeated Chuan Yidao at the cost of his left shoulder, and then immediately flew into the encirclement, poured the sword with force, and swept the sword qi, defeating several killers.

When the reinforcements from the Lu Mansion arrived, what they saw was Lu Chen and the others, covered in blood, sitting under the big tree on the side of the road, as if they had exhausted themselves.

"Three sons!" Everyone stepped forward and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two of them looking up. He quickly helped the person into the carriage and went all the way to the Lu Mansion.
