Volume 1: The Boy Shows His Edge Chapter Seventy-One: Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat

As the capital of a state, Jinguancheng naturally has a very large population. During the day, there are all kinds of things, each with its own bustle and joy, but it is not as intoxicating as the night.

The sour literati of the Hibiscus Dynasty said that if you want to see a city clearly, you must go into its night.

In such a night, there are women, fine wine, fire trees and silver flowers, drunken gold fans, and street blood, but there will not be too many rules to return. If people under the day still wear a mask of hypocrisy and can laugh and talk to enemies who have turned against each other, then in this deep night, there are many unnecessary courtesies between people who waste time, some people lose themselves, and some people find themselves, and desire will appear full of reckless and direct indifference in the conflict.

At least tonight, on the streets of Jinguancheng in the spring of Yinshi, the bloody conflict brought about by the alternation of power in the city lord's mansion, the absurdity of loyalty to betrayal, and the dynamic reality after the betrayal continued to play out until one side was all dead.

Across the street, the firelight separates the night from the danger, and the two delicate women who peek out of the shadows under the eaves can only wait in silence for the opportunity.

It's still the familiar armor, or the familiar equipment and weapons, and even many of the faces are still so familiar, but Bai Zhi's heart is cold enough, and she can't understand why those guards who were extremely loyal and respectful to her father in the past will directly rebel, and why those uncles who are extremely amiable to her will spare no effort to arrest her after her father's death.

Bai Zhi bit her already slightly chapped lip hard, and it was not until the blood stained the tips of her teeth that she felt a sharp tingling sensation from the chapped lip that she was free from this useless confusion and grief.

Bai Zhi looked at the alley across the street, and said firmly: "Mr. is inside, I have to save her." ”

Li Miaozhen's brows frowned, and saw that with the entry of those soldiers, the torches gradually lit up the deep area, driving away the night that could be used as protection, and said anxiously: "Your husband just fell over there and should be hidden now, don't mess around." ”

Not long after she and Bai Zhi came out of the underground secret room, they saw the picture of Ye Yun being shot down by a stick in the sky not far away, and naturally approached this side quickly, but what made them helpless was that Ye Yun was obviously seriously injured but was still extremely cautious, and chose to let these rebels rush into the eyes and cannon fodder that ignited the darkness, and they had no chance to break in smoothly surrounded by so many people.

"There are more and more people...... Bai Zhi's tone became more and more anxious, "If you continue to consume like this, Mr. will definitely not be able to hide for long." ”

Li Miaozhen tilted her head slightly, staring at the brightness and darkness of the light not far away, and said with relief: "That area is a private house, it should be able to hide for a long time." ”

"And you think the two of us can just break in and get your husband out?"

"The key now should be, how can we really help your husband and give her a chance to run out and find us. ”

Li Miaozhen muttered a few words, thinking of the difficulty of this one or two things, she couldn't help but purse her lips, feeling that it was really difficult to complete.

Bai Zhi thought of a way, but her voice became smaller and smaller, "They must want to catch me the most, if I can lure them away, Mr. should be able to run away......"

"They're certainly not trying to catch you the most. Li Miaozhen heard Bai Zhi's whisper, and shook her head slightly and said sympathetically: "They just want to kill you." ”

"If my husband dies too, what if I survive?"

"Die and die. ”

Bai Zhi's tone already had a bit of a sense of passivity and abandonment of the world to seek self-destruction, Li Miaozhen knew that it was useless to persuade him again, so he grabbed Bai Zhi's little hand that wanted to get up and break free, and after a moment of silence, he said calmly: "Since you want to attract the attention of the other party to help your husband, then you have to understand that the longer you are attracted, the better, have you figured out how to make a big fuss and how to run?"

"There are the most pharmacies in this place, I must be more familiar than you, come with me, and make some useful preparations first. ”

......

......

On the other side of the wall, it seemed to be a whisper of a wound, Ye Yun covered his bleeding shoulder, his back pressed against the wall hard without falling, pursing his lips and silently paying attention to the surrounding movements in silence.

The night is the best protection, but the enemy also understands.

So Ye Yun did the opposite, in the spread of the flow of people who behaved with torches, went upstream, and in the midst of several dangerous encounters, she killed a few people silently as fast as possible, only to find a moment of rest and the shadow under the wall in the firelight.

"I can actually leave it alone. She said this in her heart, when those masters led the rebels into the city lord's mansion, she did so much at the beginning, she was a passerby, and she was home in the four fields on the mainland, so why should she be involved in this dangerous worldly dispute.

It's just that in the end, I still don't want that little guy to die directly, it's just my own uneasy to say after all.

Those who cultivate the Tao should be deliberately angry.

Asking his own heart, he finally found the answer, Ye Yun smiled slightly, unfortunately the refreshing smile that no one could appreciate in the night was fleeting. She bandaged herself briefly, her frowning eyebrows that looked like willow leaves flattened, and she began to think seriously about who might be easier to kill.

This corner of the southeast region is now a lively and charming quagmire, everyone who enters it will have their own ideas, no one can control the collision and direction of desire, let alone know the final outcome, just like those soldiers who have only entered this area for a short time, will not know why the originally very quiet street not far behind them will be on fire so fiercely.

"Over there!"

"I saw Miss over there!"

"Bastard, that's the remnants, where is the young lady. ”

The sergeants, who had been nervous all night, saw a very clear figure on the other side of the long street under the light of the fire, and the complex emotions of violence, fear, guilt, and betrayal finally found such an inclined mouth on the verge of the collapse of the sense of moral intolerance.

"Let's go!" Alley Mo crisscrossed the alley, and a slender hand stretched out from the oblique thorn to pull Bai Zhi's self-destructive body, and plunged into the alley and night outside the firelight.

Even across the street, Li Miaozhen could feel the murderous intent of the group of rebels against Bai Zhi, and she walked through the familiar alleys and streets, just bowing her head and running away, not knowing that the sergeants who were chasing after the fire seemed to be hindered by the collapsed buildings on the street and the people hiding in the buildings.

"Cover your mouth and nose quickly, this little girl is lighting all the pharmacies, this smoke must be poisonous. ”

A middle-aged man made a quick move, stunned the last city lord's mansion mutinous personal guard who chased him to this alley, frowned and said: "These are the elites of the city lord's mansion, the strength is not weak, we are just hindering each other, don't be left here in love." ”

Li Bin, as Liu Chaoge's most trusted right-hand man, commanded the Liu family and the masters sent by the Li family, and had already done many things riskily in this night, just to buy Li Miaozhen more time to escape.

"My lord, they have helpers!"

"Is it the weak-willed people in the army?"

"The brothers who were rescued said that the moves and exercises were not similar, and they should be other forces in the city. ”

Xing Zuo listened to the report of the renegade guards, his eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a cold voice: "These problems should be worried about your latest city lord, you can catch that group of people alive, and then surround and kill that girl first." ”

Xing Zuo stood in the air again, he looked at the army fire snake that was led away under his feet, and his mood was slightly depressed.

Bian Xia came to Xing Zuo and stood in the air, looking at the sporadic firelight under his feet, and said coldly: "I didn't expect that little girl to have a determination to break the boat, and now there are not enough people to search for that woman here." ”

"That woman should rely on some kind of secret method that will fight back to obtain the sword power to temporarily break through the realm of spiritual life, although the movement is so big and I haven't found this woman for so long, but I don't think she can have much respite, I think it's better to stop the trouble. ”

These words sounded more like an increase in confidence for himself, Bian Xia was a little joking and uncomfortable, and he didn't want to fight to the death with a first-grade sword cultivator who was not dying, but there was nothing to hesitate about when the incident happened, he said seriously: "Once you meet that woman with a killing move, you will immediately break away and fly into the air to support each other." ”

"Hmm. ”

Xing Zuo and Bian Xia, one with a gun and the other with a stick, slowly fell into the shadow under their feet.

And on the other side of the long street, where the fire and smoke were raging, the cook found Bai Zhi and the others before the soldiers who were lost in the poisonous smoke and black hands.

Looking at the two people who had cut a few streets but couldn't get out of sight and were still trying to escape in front, the cook instantly determined that the black hands that hindered the appearance behind him must be related to the slightly older girl beside Bai Zhi, he looked at the way they tried to escape, and couldn't help but feel the pleasure of the situation returning to his hands, and said with a joking smile: "Hehe, little girl, why do you have to run out again when you are hiding?"

When Xing Zuo assigned the task, the cook fell into a task that could make his side invincible, and he didn't have to deal with the cold sword cultivator, he naturally felt relaxed, and now he easily found the target under the fruitless search, and he had to make the cook sigh, although there were big and small accidents tonight, the ending was quite satisfactory.

"Turn left at the entrance of the fourth alley in front, there is a secret room behind the second shop inside, you go over there. ”

"Sister, what about you?"

"We scored and ran first, and there was also a secret room on the right, all of which were my Li family's shop. ”

"Run!" The wind whistling to catch up was like thunder rolling on a spring night, Li Miaozhen didn't have time to turn around and look back, he pushed Bai Zhi hard with his left hand, and urged a bag of poison into the air with his right hand.

This is the poison that Li Miaozhen's father prepared for him, called the Seven Star Heavenly Fairy, which will quickly disperse after being urged in the air by the Li family's unique internal force, colorless and tasteless, but it can be absorbed into the meridians through the breath of the cultivator, but in a moment, the poisoned person's meridians will be paralyzed, unable to breathe, and gradually his vision will be blurred, and the gods will be confused, until finally the internal organs will ulcerate and die.

It is often said in practice that the last medicine master can also be the most powerful poison cultivator.
