Li Erzhu and Xiao Shi led a few people to tie up Chuan Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing, and after Li Erzhu saw Zhao Desheng muttering a few words in front of him, Zhao Desheng laughed when he heard it.

"It's really hard to break through the iron shoes, and there is nowhere to find them. Bring me the boy surnamed Fu and the girl, and I will put them in the prisoner car and send them to Qin Xiangye for reward. ”

Zhao Desheng said that, and ordered the soldiers to arrest Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing. Fu Tianpeng was pushed forward by the soldiers, and when he arrived in front of Zhao Desheng, Fu Tianpeng gathered his true qi with both arms and shouted: "Open." "The rope was shattered. At the same time, Zhao Xueqing was also freed. The two of them each held swords and stood in front of Zhao Desheng, which immediately scared him stupid.

"You ...... What do you want to do? Is it impossible to rebel? ”

Zhao Desheng's face changed drastically, and he glared at Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing angrily.

Fu Tianpeng sneered: "Fart, Qin Hui bullied the king and harmed the people, and he was the one who rebelled." ”

After hearing Fu Tianpeng's words, Zhao Desheng laughed and said, "Haha! Good! Very good! You dare to offend Qin Xiangye, you simply don't know whether you live or die. The official will punish on behalf of heaven and behead the public. ”

"Really? I'd like to see what you old fox can do to kill me and Qingmei! ”

Fu Tianpeng sneered, and suddenly swung his long knife and slashed at Zhao Desheng.

Zhao Xueqing was not far behind, and followed with a sword stabbing out, hitting Zhao Desheng's left shoulder, and a sword pierced through the heart.

Zhao Desheng screamed, his eyes widened, and he looked at the two of them in disbelief, his eyes full of disbelief.

Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing came out together, rushed into the crowd in an instant, raised their swords and fell, and killed several people.

After Zhao Desheng's death, several masters led by him were defeated and retreated. After Zhao Desheng's death, the villagers finally woke up from their fear, and they couldn't help but cry in fright when they looked at the corpses all over the ground.

Zhao Xueqing comforted: "Folks, don't worry, let's leave here immediately." This is a wolf's den and a tiger's den, and it is not suitable to stay for a long time. ”

"Good! Let's go! ”

The villagers hurriedly packed up their things and prepared to flee.

At this time, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing had already eliminated all the enemies. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing returned to the villagers and shouted: "Don't be afraid, with us, no one can hurt you!" ”

"Yes! With us protecting everyone, no one can hurt everyone. Zhao Xueqing also agreed.

"Thank you two for saving your life!"

"The life-saving grace of the two heroes is unforgettable."

The villagers thanked Fu Tianpeng and the others one after another, and they knew that Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing were definitely not ordinary masters of the rivers and lakes.

It is not easy for the two to rescue the people here and help them get rid of the evil bandits, and the villagers respect the two even more.

Zhao Xueqing smiled and said: "Folks, you don't have to be polite, Brother Tianpeng and I didn't do anything, they are to blame." ”

"The two heroes not only saved everyone's lives, but also helped us eradicate the bandits, what a good person."

"We all remember the merits of the two."

The villagers said in unison.

Zhao Xueqing said with a smile: "Folks, let's hurry now." Before I do, though, I'd like to ask. Which temple in the village is better built? ”

"There is a Jinguang Temple three miles to the southwest."

"Thank you! I will take Brother Tianpeng to Jinguang Temple to worship the Buddha. After Zhao Xueqing thanked her, she rushed to Jinguang Temple with Fu Tianpeng.

Jinguang Temple is not far from Zhao Village, and it only takes a few moments to reach it by horseback riding.

When Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing rode horses to the gate of Jinguang Temple, it was almost dusk, and the sun was setting, reflecting half of the sky.

"This Jinguang Temple is a Buddhist temple established by the Tang Emperor, which has been praised for thousands of years, and is the first temple of the Tang Dynasty. The temple was originally called Kongoji Temple. The temple is full of incense and is a good temple. Fu Tianpeng explained all the way.

Zhao Xueqing nodded, and the two dismounted and walked into the temple. The temple is brightly lit and filled with the faint smell of sandalwood. The monks in the temple shuttle among them, chanting the Buddha and chanting the sutras from time to time to chant "Amitabha". The disciples in the temple are wearing cyan monk's robes, with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, looking respectful and pious, it seems that this temple is dedicated to believers to worship the Buddha.

The two climbed all the way up the stone steps to the top of the temple. On the roof of the temple, there are several huge pearls of the night, which emit a glittering light and illuminate the temple transparently.

After wandering around the monastery, the two finally stopped outside a meditation room.

Zhao Xueqing pointed to the meditation room and said to Fu Tianpeng: "This is here, the abbot in the temple is called Master Kongzhi, we can go and ask to see him." ”

Fu Tianpeng bowed, and the two walked to the meditation room.

Master Kongzhi had already received the news and knew that Zhao Xueqing would come to visit the temple. So he's already waiting here.

After seeing Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing walking into the meditation room, Master Kongzhi greeted him with a smile and said, "Why did the donors only arrive today!" Come in and sit down! ”

Zhao Xueqing hurriedly saluted and said: "Master Kongzhi, I haven't seen you for many years, but the master's demeanor is still the same." ”

Master Kongzhi smiled and nodded: "Lord Zhao's mouth is still so sweet, the old man can be flattered!" Come in, donor, but what is there to ask the old man? ”

"The master is really powerful, Xue Qing admires and admires!" Zhao Xueqing clapped her hands and said.

Fu Tianpeng was secretly surprised by the side, Zhao Xueqing was indeed smart, and he could easily guess what Master Kongzhi was thinking.

"Two donors, the old man heard that the two of you are Marshal Yue Fei's subordinates, but is it true?" Master Kongzhi asked with a smile.

"Yes! Don't hide it from the master, Zai Xia and Xiaomei came to find the master on the order of Yue Shuai. ”

Master Kongzhi laughed and said, "I see! Lao Wei heard that Marshal Yue had two fierce generals by his side, presumably they were two! ”

"Exactly."

"Good! The two of you are brave people under Yue Fei's command, and I think the two of you are not only excellent in martial arts, but more importantly, both of you are benevolent and righteous. I am a big Song Jiangshan, and I rely on the two of them to be stable. ”

Master Kongzhi changed his words and said solemnly: "I heard that the imperial court intends to station a large army here, so that Prince Zhao can lead the army to fight. If Prince Zhao does not lead the army effectively, I am afraid that it will cause panic among the people. So, I would like to ask the two of you, what is the best solution? ”

Fu Tianpeng bowed his hand and said solemnly: "The master is extremely worried. ”

"Master rest assured! We will definitely do our best to assist Prince Zhao in sweeping away the bandits! Zhao Xueqing replied to Master Kongzhi in a firm tone.

"With your two words, the old man will rest assured! I don't know when you plan to leave? ”

"We're going to leave early tomorrow morning."

Master Kongzhi nodded and said, "Okay, then let's leave early tomorrow morning." ”

After the two said goodbye, Fu Tianpeng took Zhao Xueqing back to the town, ready to buy some dry food in the city to satisfy his hunger.

Zhao Xueqing proposed: "Brother Tianpeng, let's buy some food in the town!" ”

"It's good!"

Early the next morning, two figures quietly crept into the town and quietly entered a small courtyard.

"Brother Tianpeng, we've arrived." Zhao Xueqing took Fu Tianpeng's hand and said softly.

"Hmm"

Fu Tianpeng nodded, and the two came to the door of a room. The room was silent, there was no movement at all.

Zhao Xueqing knocked lightly on the door and shouted, "Excuse me, is there anyone?" ”

There was silence in the room, but no one answered.

"Brother Tianpeng, did you hear that?" Zhao Xueqing asked softly.

"It doesn't seem like there's anybody." Fu Tianpeng said.

"Brother Tianpeng, you are watching from the outside, I'll go in and explore the reality." Zhao Xueqing said softly.

"Okay, Sister Qing, be careful." Fu Tianpeng nodded in agreement.

There was a "squeak" and the door was pushed open.

There were no candles in the room, it was pitch black, except for a bed on the table in front of the window, and on the bed lay a corpse. The corpse's eyes were wide and wide, and it was evident that before he died, he had suffered some kind of pain that prevented him from closing.

It was a man of five short stature, whose neck had been cut by a sword. Blood splattered and soaked the entire bed, apparently dead. His face was pale, his eyes were wide, and he seemed to be full of unwillingness and resentment before he died.

The smell of blood in the room came to her nose, stimulating Zhao Xueqing's olfactory nerves, making her frown.

She took a few breaths of fresh air in a row, and only then did she feel a little more comfortable.

Fu Tianpeng also smelled the strong smell of blood, he frowned, and said: "It's been dead for a long time, the corpse has decomposed into this appearance, and it is not easy to preserve it until now!" ”

"yes!" Zhao Xueqing nodded.

"Who the hell killed him?"

"I don't know. I don't think he will be blind to death, I guess he died of murder. ”

"But why did he die in this place? It's not a good place to go. Fu Tianpeng frowned and said.

Zhao Xueqing shook her head and said, "Brother Tianpeng, I don't know much about this matter. But from Master Kongzhi's words, I speculate that something must be wrong within the imperial court. ”

"So, our whereabouts are exposed? Fu Tianpeng's face changed slightly, and he said with some concern.

Zhao Xueqing's eyebrows raised, she pressed her fingers against her chin and pondered for a while, and she continued: "There is no conclusive evidence yet, so it is inconvenient to draw conclusions. ”

......

Staying here is not conducive to wasting time, and Zhao Desheng's death invisibly gives the two of them a great potential danger. In order to avoid extraneous branches, the two decided to leave the town and investigate the real reason why the imperial court suddenly removed the command of Zhao Wangye's city defense. Fu Tianpeng bought a fast horse outside and quickly left the town with Zhao Xueqing.

Just as Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing were about to leave the town, three men in black jumped down from the eaves, and after they carefully checked the place where Fu and Zhao stayed, one of them released an arrow into the sky. The signal of the arrow flew into the distance like a meteor, and the dazzling light stayed in the air for a long time, and then disappeared without a trace.

At this time, the three men in black were also nowhere to be found, and they did not know where to go.
