On the 14th day of July in the year of Bingchen, outside Chang'an City.

Chitang has been lurking in the woods for nearly ten hours. Although it was autumn, but the weather was still very hot, the poplars on both sides of the post road almost whispered in his ears for a whole day, seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, the cicadas finally stopped, but the mosquitoes and gnats among the shrubs and grasses were restless, buzzing in front of Chitang's eyes, Chitang was annoyed, bent his finger to the mosquitoes in front of him, "snort" a soft sound, those mosquitoes were hit by this invisible energy, and fell to the ground one after another.

Of course, Chi Tang is not afraid of these mosquitoes biting himself, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he has his own strength to protect his body, Hugh said that the little mosquitoes, even poisonous scorpions, centipedes, and other things dare not get close, he used his fingers to bounce down the mosquitoes in front of him, it is really caused by the depression in his heart, it is no wonder, since the early morning he has been sneaking here, enduring the heat all day, now the sun is setting, the moon is in the sky, but the person who is waiting has not appeared, how can the heart not be irritable and depressed?

Ten steps away from his side, a strong man dressed in black seemed to scratch his legs extremely bored, this is Zhang Yan, the eldest son of the Zhang family in Pengcheng, Zhang Yan is good at making giant swords, and he is also a master of swordsmanship behind Chi Tang, who has always been as famous as Chi Tang in Jiangnan martial arts. Chi Tang knew that on both sides of this forest valley, there were at least more than fifty latent martial arts masters. There are a few people who are famous in the rivers and lakes like himself or Pengcheng Zhang Yan, before he made a career, Chi Tang had also seen a few of them, and they also stretched out their skills to each other in private, to Chi Tang's surprise, those few people's martial arts were strong, compared to himself. Chitang is a native of Linchang in the south of the Yangtze River, Linchang is a small place in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Linchang Chi family is a very small one of the many families in the south of the Yangtze River, but after so many years of chaos in the Central Plains, many warriors from the north poured into the south of the Yangtze River, Chi Tang took this advantage as a child of the family, since he was a child, he has met a famous teacher, and he is talented, so after the art is completed, he has been the top person among the people who practice martial arts in Jiangnan, but he never thought that this time in order to seek this matter, in Chang'an City, he actually gathered many rare chivalrous masters, which is really a rare event in the world's martial arts, and it makes Chi Tang feel that this plan has a great success。

In the distance, the sound of chariots and horses marching came, Chi Tang listened carefully, and could vaguely hear the sonorous sound of armor and blades rubbing against each other, Chi Tang's heart just moved, and a voice came from his ears: "Coming!

This voice was like a whisper, although the tone was extremely low, but the words were clear, and Chi Tang could hear that this was the voice of Chen Song, the leader of the actions this time. Pengguan Chen Song, good at using fine iron to point steel spears, there is the courage of gods and ghosts, in the past years Zhao plundered Guanzhong, this person with the power of one person to resist five hundred Zhao iron cavalry, not only to protect the village is not lost, but also five hundred bloodthirsty like demons Zhao cavalry all killed, so that the world martial arts shocked.

There is a proverb in the rivers and lakes: Shenwu pushes the double unique, and the five warriors are brave, which is talking about the seven strongest martial arts in the world's righteous martial arts. The so-called double peerless, one is Duanmu Linghong, the master of the Duanmu family of the Duanmu family in Kunlun Mountain, and the other is Chen Song, the absolute iron spear of the Pengguan beggar army. Chi Tang's swordsmanship is outstanding, his skills are extraordinary, and he is among the five brave warriors. This time, the Golden Dragon Talisman of Duanmu Linghong, the head of the Double Peer, was summoned, and the other person of the Double Peer, Chen Song, became the leader of the people who acted as the owner of the Golden Dragon Talisman. Among the five brave warriors, in addition to Chi Tang, there is also a Pengcheng giant sword Zhang Yan who participated in this matter, which shows the prosperity of the formation.

Listening to Chen Song's reminder, Chi Tang nodded secretly, although he had not met before, and he didn't know Chen Song's true skills, but judging from this secret cultivation alone, this Chen Song really has outstanding skills, and he is quite inferior, worthy of the head of everyone.

Chen Song's reminder obviously also came into the ears of everyone hidden in the forest valley, Chi Tang obviously felt that the momentum around him had changed, just now there was some sound of the rope, but now there is no sound, even the gnats under the grass and forest have stopped chirping, and there is a murderous aura between the forest valleys, Chi Tang understands very well that this is caused by the murderous aura emitted by more than fifty martial arts masters at the same time.

Already seeing the torches in the distance getting closer and closer like a long snake, the sonorous sound of the rubbing of armor mixed with the sound of the horses' hooves on the ground, mixed with the creaking sound of the wheels rolling, Chi Tang couldn't help but perk up, the tyrant's car had indeed passed through the summer palace. ...,

The purpose of these more than 50 masters gathered here is to assassinate this tyrant, this tyrant ascended the throne for only a year, cruelty, perverse, not only killed the important ministers of the court for no reason, even his own queen did not let go, I heard that he not only himself is promiscuous, but also the most fond of seeing the obscenity of men and women, when the palace feasts, often let the palace maids and the ministers on the spot, they are happy to watch, if they do not obey, they will be beaten to death, the dead will be broken into pieces and blood, in order to set an example. The tyrant also brought the prisoner to the palace, cut off the prisoner's skin, and the skin hung down on his chin, but the tyrant let the prisoner dance on the palace with the bloody dough for fun; the tyrant also liked to eat pigs and sheep raw, skinned the livestock alive, and let them run around the palace; Chi Tang felt like a demon and a monster when he heard it, and the Absolute Cloud Castle also issued a golden dragon talisman to the martial arts righteous path, saying that if he didn't get rid of this tyrant, he was afraid that the people would be ruined, and the country would have no such thing。

No matter how brutal this tyrant is, it has nothing to do with Chi Tang, he is from Jiangnan, and there are two imperial courts here, this tyrant really wants to make a big mess in the country, in fact, it is still a good thing for Chi Tang's own court, maybe he can also take advantage of the time to send troops to attack and recover the land of the two capitals in the Central Plains. Moreover, since the Spring and Autumn Period, the assassins of the emperor and monarch have not heard of any success, so Chi Tang feels that he really does not need to stir up this troubled water, but Li Du, the Dongcheng ranger who came to gather him, gave him a very tempting promise: "If this matter is successful, the new emperor should be established, and every swordsman and knight who participates in this righteous act can be crowned a marquis, and those who are willing to be officials can go to Jiuqing, and those who are unwilling to be officials will have their own rewards. Brother Chi was originally a child of the scholar clan, if it weren't for those northern gentlemen who took advantage of the imperial court to migrate south, bullying the local scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, why would the Chi brother clan be so defeated? Why would Brother Chi have to wander the rivers and lakes alone?"

Chi Tang was silent at the time, he was born in a Jiangnan family due to the court party struggle, his own clan has long been defeated, not only his parents died of anger, but all the properties of the family were also swallowed up by those big clans from the north, so at the age of twenty-five, Chi Tang can only carry a sword, wandering alone in the rivers and lakes, every time he thinks of the tragedy of the family's defeat, Chi Tang can't help but feel depressed. But although there is a reward for this matter, one is dangerous, and the other is not an official of the same court, how can he be a scholar of the Hu people?

Li Du took out the golden dragon talisman again, when the shimmering golden light and the dragon with teeth and claws on the token came into his eyes, Chi Tang only felt a trance, although the Duanmu family of Jueyun Fort has a high reputation in the rivers and lakes, and the golden dragon talisman is also a token that everyone in the martial arts obeys, but Chi Tang, as one of the five scholars, is comparable to Shuangjue, but he has no obligation to bow down and obey the order. But somehow, at that time, in a trance, Chi Tang agreed to it.

Afterwards, Chi Tang reflected on this move and always felt that he was a little impulsive. However, the eldest husband made a promise, and since he promised it, he couldn't go back. Anyway, this tyrant exterminates human nature, so he should get rid of this scourge for the people in this period, if it doesn't work out, it's a big deal to die generously, and the history will naturally leave a name, and it will not be in vain to do a life of chivalry.

Chi Tang sneaked into Chang'an a month ago, and when he found out that it was Chen Song, who was in charge of the absolute iron spear, and there were many knights and swordsmen with high martial arts who came here, he couldn't help but feel that this matter was promising. Calm down and think about it, the person who really summoned this assassination may not be the owner of the Golden Dragon Talisman, Duanmu Linghong, looking at this situation, most likely it is the most promising son of the royal family to succeed to the throne after the collapse of this tyrant. However, Chi Tang didn't know much about the details of the royal family, so he couldn't tell which prince was the mastermind behind the scenes, and he wanted to ask Chen Song a few times, but Chen Song always avoided answering.

"It doesn't matter who he is!" Chi Tang said to himself at the end, and he was not unfamiliar with the country's reward. Being able to get rid of that tyrant is always a good thing for the people of Limin.

On July 14, the Son of Heaven moved from the cool palace where he lived to the main palace of the capital.

The assassination was scheduled for this night, the journey of this forest valley was very short, the slopes on both sides were not high, and the trees were not abundant, so the tyrant's entourage would never have thought that there would be a large number of assassins hiding in this small forest valley, and when the tyrant's car drove to this valley, he would plug both ends of the valley with rocks and rolling wood, trap the tyrant's car, and make his escort the iron horse unable to care about each other, and then everyone killed from the valley and took the tyrant directly, although the tyrant heard that there was also the courage of ten thousand people, but with the outstanding skills of the people, he could succeed with one blow and take the tyrant's head and retreat. ...,

Chi Tang once objected: "Since you can block the mouth of the valley with rocks and rolling logs, why don't you just smash the rocks and the like directly at the tyrant's chariot? ”

When Chen Song frowned and thought about Chi Tang's proposal, several people already laughed disapprerovingly. Xiahou Tong, the military advisor who acted, first disagreed: "The Mojia organs can take advantage of the terrain of the valley mouth, but it is extremely difficult to launch on the side of the valley, and it is not feasible to directly attack this thief's car with mountains and rocks." Besides, most of the thieves' chariots are made of gold and jade, so how can they hurt him with crossbow arrows?"

Zhang Yan, the giant sword, patted Chi Tang on the shoulder with a big grin: "Brother Chi doesn't have to worry too much, at that time, the thief was in chaos, and I waited for the brave to enter, one sword at a time, and the thief's head returned, how strong is it?"

This is selfishness, in the laughter of everyone, Chi Tang is already very clear about everyone's thoughts. He originally made a serious and prudent suggestion, but the people involved in this matter were all first-class masters in the rivers and lakes, who didn't want to slash the tyrant and promote his own brave name? Chi Tang could only smile slightly and say more.

I still remember the scene vividly, and now, the tyrant's car has arrived.

When the sky was over, it was the night of the full moon, and the knights accompanying the chariots were all holding torches, and Chi Tang easily had a full view of the situation of the chariots. In front of the head is the two hundred Xuanjia iron horsemen who open the way, as well as about 100 palace maids who hold the palace lamp and the banner of the Son of Heaven, and then there are a number of carved dragons and phoenixes, the middle one is dragged by four horses, the body is extremely large, the decoration is more exquisite, the body is surrounded by a thin tent and light yarn as a curtain, which is where the tyrant Luan is driving. There were about 100 Xuanjia knights on both sides, and behind the car, there were 200 Xuanjia knights. When the tyrant traveled with 3,000 iron horsemen, this time he returned to the palace for summer vacation, and he only had 500 guards with him, and the frame etiquette system was relatively light, so it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for this assassination.

The key now is that when the tyrant's chariot is just in the middle of the valley, the engine is immediately turned off, and the front and rear two hundred iron cavalry are blocked, and the assassination team of more than fifty people only needs to face the hundred cavalry on the side of the escort, although these guard knights are also brave and brave, but in front of these swordsmen and knights with outstanding martial arts, it is expected to be vulnerable.

A group of chariots finally entered the valley, because the road in the forest valley was narrow, and the tyrant's chariot was too large, the escort cavalry on both sides had to ride their horses and retreat behind, Rong Tianzi drove first, the whole chariot team formed a long snake shape, the original hundred people on both sides of the escort Yulin cavalry were only more than ten people left, and the rest fell into the back road. Chi Tang was ecstatic when he saw it, like this, it was even more convenient for everyone to act, most of them were also this tyrant who deserved this catastrophe, how could the tyrant think that on the hills and valleys on both sides where the trees were not dense and the slopes were not treacherous, a group of heroes who had already ambushed him and took his life.

Chi Tang watched the tyrant's car get closer and closer, his whole body was already tense, just waiting for the mechanism to start, Chen Song gave an order, he flew out, after all, it was a major event for the assassin, although Chi Tang tried his best to stay calm, but there was still a little nervousness in his heart, and he vaguely seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat.

At this moment, a woman's coquettish chuckle came into Chi Tang's ears unusually clearly, Chi Tang was stunned, almost doubting whether he had heard it wrong, but this coquettish voice was coquettish, and there was a strong sense of temptation, and it was really heard, not a hazy sound. Chi Tang looked around, thinking in his heart, there was no woman among the many swordsmen and knights who were ambushed on the left, so naturally it could not be which of them sent it. After thinking about it again, I heard that the tyrant was promiscuous and promiscuous, could it be that he was prostituting himself with his concubines while driving, and those concubines made this sound?

Chi Tang didn't know if he was the only one who heard the road, or if everyone in the ambush heard it, so he wanted to ask Zhang Yan who was not far away, but this was the critical moment when the car drove into the valley, how could he speak out and ask?

The advancing iron cavalry and the palace maid have stepped out of the valley, and the tyrant's car is also galloping into the valley, Mengkeli, there was a loud noise on both sides of the head and tail of the forest valley, and countless mountains and rocks and trees rolled down, only a moment of work, the exit and entrance of the forest valley were blocked tightly, the iron cavalry before and after a big uproar, many horses were frightened, and the palace maids and attendants were in a big mess.

At the same time, Chen Song's voice also sounded: "Kill!" The voice was short and firm, and the assassins on both sides of the valley who were ambushed flew out, Chi Tang had no time to think about the strange woman's laughter, drew his sword from behind his back, and jumped down, he had been gathering momentum for a long time, and this action was even more like an arrow from the string, extremely fast, and went straight to the tyrant's car.
