401 [Men are as dead as iron]

In the northern section of Qingfeng Street, the sword qi is vertical and horizontal, and the palm wind is whistling.

There have been many small pits on the bluestone ground, the scene of broken masonry can be seen everywhere, the horizontal wall on the left side of the long street has appeared one after another sharp marks, and the pavilion trees on the right side are still falling countless branches and leaves even in summer because of the invasion of the strength of the two supreme masters.

The long sword in Yin Qianjue's hand was like a meteor in the sky, and each sword carried a cold sword light.

Wei Chigui's hands were like clouds, erratic, unpredictable, but there was a gentle wind and drizzle in the clouds, and there were lightning and thunder.

The two have exchanged hundreds of moves, and they still don't know the winner.

Yin Qianjue withdrew his sword and turned around, his eyes swept over the battle situation in the distance, and then he rushed forward suddenly, his body was agile and elegant, and he came to Wei Chigui as fast as lightning, only to see the sword light shining through the air, as if the surrounding air was shattered by this sharp sword qi, and a fine and slight explosion sound sounded around the sword body.

In the blink of an eye, a sword turns into seven!

Everyone in the rivers and lakes has their own ability to press the bottom of the box, let alone a swordsman like Yin Qianjue who stands at the pinnacle.

On the left, on the right, in front, on the top, for a while, it seemed that there were seven Yin Qianjue in Wei Chigui's sight, and corresponding to them were seven extremely gorgeous sword flowers.

Chic and unbridled, it is dazzling.

If you were an ordinary martial artist, I am afraid that you would have already fallen into a stupor, confused in this strange scene, but Wei Chigui knew that this was the afterimage that appeared because Yin Qianjue had taken his body technique to the extreme, and it was just an illusion in his sight.

However, an illusion does not mean that there is no power, only one of the seven afterimages is true, and ordinary people cannot distinguish it at all.

When the real sword shows its fangs, the only thing that awaits the opponent is death.

Ten years of sharpening a sword, a sword breaking mountains and rivers.

When the sword qi attacked, Wei Chigui closed his eyes slightly.

All the yin thousand disappeared, all the sword flowers were no longer in the eyes, the fallen leaves and dust on the street, the spring flowers and autumn moons and summer thunder and winter snow in this world, and even all the things in the world and the vicissitudes of the sea, all disappeared from Wei Chigui's eyes at this moment.

All that remains is ethereal and quiet.

The next moment, he took a step forward to the left.

The pair of white hands seemed to be light clouds out of Xiuxiu, bringing out a wisp of breeze from the clouds, and as the hands moved forward, the wind suddenly became stronger in Sumeru, and the sleeves of Wei Chigui's robe flew up and down.

Above the loose hands are the hands of the clouds.

This is the real understanding of Wei Chi's decades of martial arts.

Wei Chigui's hands continued to move forward, driving the wind to flutter and spin, and thousands of sharp rays gradually converged, and finally converged on one point.

Ren Er has changed a lot, I only hit it all the way!

The energy intersects, and the thunder roars!

With the position of the two people as the center, a majestic wave of qi spread rapidly to the surroundings, and then you saw flying sand and stones, ghosts and gods!

The phantoms of the Yin Thousand Absolute disappeared with only one sword.

Yu Chigui's hands were clasped together but they were not solid, and the tip of the sword was in his palms, although the tips of the sword trembled at a frequency that was difficult to see with the naked eye, but it was never able to break through Yu Chigui's palms.

In the staggered internal strength, the bodies of the two people climbed upward, rotating face to face, and the sharp sound of breaking the air continued to escape towards the surroundings.

Wei Chigui opened his eyes suddenly, and a cold light suddenly appeared.

His left hand touched the sword body, like a gentle country and like a finger soft, the long sword was taken aside by his left hand, and then his right hand turned into a fist, suddenly piercing the air, and the wind swept the world!

Between the lightning and flint, Yin Qianjue raised his arms to block each other.

"Bang!"

This burst was like a tiger roaring in the mountains, and I saw Yin Qianjue flying out upside down, and it was actually blasted out ten zhang away by Wei Chigui's punch!

Yin Qianjue is like a meteor in the sky, when it is about to land, the long sword suddenly drops down, and the body rises in the air again, but it does not turn back and pounce towards Wei Chigui, but a rise and fall and gallop towards the northeast, leaving only two cold words.

"Admire!"

Wei Chigui landed steadily, he took a step in the direction of Yin Qianjue's escape, then stopped, turned around and looked at the other end of Qingfeng Street, his body like a lightning jet.

At about the same time, two young figures rushed towards the north.

The three of them stopped almost at the same time, and Wei Chigui was relieved after sweeping it away.

The battle here has ended, and after those black-clothed crossbowmen were close to the Hou Mansion's personal guards, although they resisted stubbornly, they were defeated after all, and the rest were ambushed except for the two living mouths.

The dead soldiers led by Meng Xuan faced the joint attack of Lu Shen and Lin Xi, and had no power to resist at all, Meng Xuan saw that the general trend had gone, so he brazenly raised his knife to kill himself, and the rest either resisted desperately or tried to escape, all died under Lin Xi's long knife, and in the end there were only two alive.

Wei Chi returned to Lin Xi and saluted, this was not the time to greet politely, and then looked at Lu Shen and said: "That swordsman's name is Yin Qianjue, ranking sixth on the martial arts list, his temperament is cold and lonely, and his attainments in swordsmanship are unrivaled in the world. But you don't have to worry, he lost half a move at my hands today, and he won't appear again in a short time, after all, he is just cold-blooded and ruthless to others, but he cares about his own life very much. ”

He didn't hide it in the slightest, obviously hoping that Lu Shen would be able to make an accurate judgment.

Lu Shen bowed and said, "Thank you seniors for your help." ”

Wei Chigui said solemnly: "No need to thank you, this is what I promised Brother Xiao, so I will naturally do my best." Lu Shen, this ambush is not simple. ”

Of course it's not simple.

The five assassins who had died were skillful, if it weren't for Lu Shen's personal action, it would not be easy for the Hou Mansion's personal soldiers to take them down, and there were such a top master as Yin Qianjue, if it weren't for Wei Chi's return today, when Lu Shen faced Yin Qianjue alone, it would be difficult for him to survive even if he was willing to abandon his own soldiers.

Not to mention the black-clothed dead soldiers who appeared later, in fact, it is not uncommon for the powerful mansions to raise dead soldiers, but it is very rare to be able to send so many dead soldiers, and the most frightening thing is that these black-clothed dead soldiers used the standard weapons in the army!

The Great Qi court banned crossbows and forbidden bows, and the appearance of hand crossbows has already set off storms in the court, not to mention the waist crossbows that only regular armies can equip?

Lu Shen didn't have the slightest joy of killing the enemy on his face, only a terrifying cold chill.

He looked at the end of the southern section of Qingfeng Street and said slowly: "Since they want to provoke a war, why should I stay? ”

At this time, Qin Zilong ran quickly, his face was full of pain, and he said in a trembling voice: "Master Hou, the three brothers died in the battle, Qiu Wang died because of abdominal wounds, and Wen Xiuhai and Xie Fu, who were in charge of the previous investigation, we found their bodies behind the south wall, and the others are okay for the time being." ”

Six lives.

Lu Shen didn't say a word, but everyone around him could feel the murderous aura emanating from him, which was a kind of anger that could devour everything.

Wei Chigui's expression was solemn, he thought that he knew more about this young man, but he didn't expect him to burst out with such a terrifying momentum because of the death of these brave soldiers.

Lu Shen turned his head to see that the carriage had turned around, and the bodies of the six fallen soldiers were being moved to the carriage. The soldiers of the Hou Mansion who had laughed at the fear of death before all had red eyes at this moment, and some couldn't help but tears of grief in their hearts, but none of them whimpered.

On the long street, there was a dead silence.

Lu Shen slowly clenched his right fist, pain, anger, and depression, all kinds of emotions converged in his mind, constantly burning his reason.

At that moment, a hand grasped his fist.

Lu Shen's blood-colored eyes looked to the side, only to see Lin Xi looking at him worriedly and distressedly, and said softly, "No matter what you want to do, I will not leave you." ”

This was the first time Lin Xi took the initiative to hold his hand.

The two looked at each other, feeling the strong affection of the senior sister and the determination of life and death, although the anger in Lu Shen's heart did not subside, but his reason gradually recovered.

Murder is inevitable, but in the current situation where the whole world is the enemy, only calmness can avenge the hatred of these brothers who died in battle.

There was a sound of horses' hooves at the end of the long street, and the soldiers of the Hou Mansion immediately stood on alert, Wei Chigui and Lin Xi stood beside Lu Shen, looking coldly at the panicked number of horsemen in front of them and the secret agents of the Warp Weaving Division who appeared in turn.

The knight at the head jumped off his horse when he was still more than ten zhang away from Lu Shen, and ran towards Lu Shen quickly, and at the same time said loudly: "Xia Guan Weaving Scripture Secretary mentions Wen Yingzhang, and comes to protect Lu Hou by the order of Lord Tiju!" ”

He was about forty years old, tall and burly, and knew at a glance that he was carrying martial arts.

Lu Shen didn't answer, nor did he stop the defensive posture of the people around him.

Wen Yingzhang swept the tragic scene on the long street at a glance, and his heart was shocked, because he saw a crossbow that should never have appeared here!

When he came closer, Wen Yingzhang hurriedly saluted, he didn't care about Lu Shen's indifference, he only saw the cold face of the young prince, and said hurriedly: "Hou Lu, Your Majesty has learned about this matter, so he summoned Lord Tiju into the palace to inquire." Lord Tiju asked the subordinate to tell Lu Hou that the court would definitely give Lu Hou a satisfactory answer on this matter, no matter who was involved in this assassination, His Majesty would definitely not tolerate it, and asked Lu Hou to stay for a while! ”

Lu Shen looked at the carriage and said slowly, "Has Your Majesty summoned me to the palace now?" ”

Wen Yingzhang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Your Majesty doesn't know the specific situation here, so you only let the Warp Weaving Department do everything in your power to protect Lu Hou." ”

Wei Chigui, who was standing next to him, said lightly: "You didn't come in time. ”

Wen Yingzhang didn't know the identity of this person, but how dare he put on a stand in front of Lu Shen, and said ashamedly: "Lu Hou, the Warp Weaving Division bears an unshirkable responsibility in this matterβ€”β€”"

"Needless to say, Ben Hou knows that your elite forces have their own tasks during this time, and they will not criticize you."

Lu Shen's words made Wen Yingzhang's heart feel relieved, but what Lu Shen said next made his expression change drastically: "But this assassination made Ben Hou lose six brothers, and someone has to pay for their sacrifice." ”

As if echoing his words, a neat and majestic muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the distance.

Wen Yingzhang turned his head to look, only to see the first cavalryman riding forward with armor at the end of the long street, followed by more and more figures.

As far as the eye can see, thousands of horses are like a forest, and the murderous spirit is soaring!
