Chapter 195: Bow to the wind
Jiang Huan broke through the flower window, bounced down on the blue bricks in the courtyard, his body rotated, he was already standing up, his knees were slightly bent, and he was about to lift his breath and jump onto the wall, when suddenly a strong wind sounded, and a feathered arrow broke through the air and screamed, shooting at his feet.
The arrow was deeply inserted into the green brick, and the shaft of the arrow violently shook and made a "buzzing" sound.
Jiang Huan immediately recognized that this feather arrow was a special feather arrow made by military scouts, and then shot it by a super strong bow, listening to its sound, it could reach a distance of 800 or even 1,000 steps. Jiang Huan's mind immediately came up with Shen Chasing's weapons, and among them was a "Splitting Stone Bow" that could reach a thousand steps. If he could still dodge such a strong bow and arrow in normal times, but at this moment, he had already injured Shen Chaixing's lungs, and if he forcibly escaped, he would probably be nailed to death on the green bricks. When he looked back again, Shen Chaixing had already walked out unhurriedly, and was looking at him with clear and translucent eyes, which seemed to be able to see Jiang Huan through.
Jiang Huan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, if Shen Chaixing could still be unscathed after suffering his "reverse scale god", he was afraid that he would really be unable to escape.
Jiang Huan couldn't help but think of what his master said when he was a teenager on the island, teaching him hidden weapon skills: "No one in this world can be hit by the Reverse Scale Divine Ray and not be harmed. Unless he's not human. ”
But in front of him, Shen Chaixing not only showed no signs of injury, but also seriously injured himself, how can this be explained? Jiang Huan's fortress of confidence began to collapse.
In fact, Shen Chaixing didn't care about his injuries at the moment, because he had indeed entered a magical realm at this time, and he could not only see through Jiang Huan, but also see through himself, at least at this moment. That feeling is wonderful, but there is something indescribable, maybe it is the state of "non-being, non-nothing".
Shen Chaixing could see the fear and anxiety in Jiang Huan's heart, and he could also see the position where the Shenmang in his body stayed, but as long as he tried to force it out by luck, the Shenmang would either become invisible or wander around as if he understood.
Shen Chaixing knew that he couldn't solve this problem for a while, so he simply put it down and concentrated on looking at Jiang Huan.
After understanding his situation, Jiang Huan gradually regained his composure, left his life and death behind, revealed his heroic nature, stood proudly, secretly breathed, and at the same time said behind the rockery not far away: "Brother Qi is a bright and upright person, why is he hiding tonight and learning from that villain?"
"Hahaha??????" With a loud laugh, out of the rockery came out of the middle-aged scribe who thought he was in a green shirt and robe, polite and chic, who was the squire of the military department Qi Tai, the confidant of Zhu Yunwen, the emperor's grandson, and the highest official of the Ming Dynasty who was responsible for the collection of foreign military intelligence. The person who was guarding his side was not a master of the military department, but a lean and capable Korean Zhan.
Qi Tai said as he walked: "Brother Jiang's words are wrong! You and I are both people who collect intelligence, and our responsibilities lie, and it is inevitable that we sometimes hide and hide in our tracks, but we just want to be above board in our hearts." The moonlight is sultry tonight, it is rare to meet Brother Jiang in this Tianxiangyuan, why don't you and I have a long talk and vomit quickly?"
Jiang Huan looked around, listened attentively, then looked back at Shen Chaixing, turned his head to Qi Tai and said with a smile: "It seems that Brother Qi has made careful arrangements for the conversation between you and me, but as the saying goes, don't speculate for more than half a sentence, do you think that with those ambushes outside and Shen Chaixing to help you, you will definitely be able to keep me?"
"Since you are sincere in your guests, you should prepare in advance to show your sincerity. Qi Tai said, waved his hand, and a slightly chubby middle-aged man came out of the dark, his black night clothes couldn't stop his protruding belly, and his face was delicate, thinking that he should be quite handsome when he was young. Jiang Huan searched in his mind, but he didn't have any impression that this person should not be from the military department or the Beijing Division.
Behind the man, two other people dragged out a masked man, who seemed to be restrained and incapacitated.
The slightly chubby middle-aged man lifted the veil of the masked man, this person was young and very handsome. Jiang Huan was taken aback, and at the same time, he paused with murderous intent in his heart, gritted his teeth, and said: "Qi Tai! You dare to come nonsense! You treat me like this, do you have the holy decree of the Holy One today?"
It turned out that it was none other than Jiang Huan's beloved son Jiang Yulin! Jiang Yulin was asked to attend a banquet tonight, and now it seems that this banquet is also a Hongmen banquet arranged by Qi Tai!
Qi Tai smiled: "There is no holy decree, but do you think that without the permission of the Holy Lord, we dare to move you, the commander?"
"What do you want to talk about?" Jiang Huan saw that the matter had come to this point, so he had to retreat and advance, and by the way, probe Qi Tai's style, see what handle he grasped, and then look for countermeasures.
"The wind and snow between the two of us can be avoided, why don't we talk about the cuckoo plan?" Qi Tai said in a surprise voice.
"Qi Tai, who do you think of me? If you want to frame me, you don't have to charge me with being a coward, right?"
"When did I say that the Cuckoo Project was the plan of the Wa people?" Qi Tai said leisurely.
Jiang Huan asked rhetorically: "Could it be that I, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, am a vegetarian? Don't forget that I also have eyeliner in the Wa Kingdom, and I heard that the name of the Cuckoo Project is not surprising, right?" Then he pointed at Jiang Yulin with his hand and said: "Although my son Jiang Yulin is not talented, he is also an official of the court of the fifth grade, what crime should you be guilty of detaining him without evidence like this? Don't let him go quickly!"
"Whoosh" a powerful arrow towards Jiang Huan's back shoulder, Jiang Huan did not turn around, only relied on the skill of listening to the wind to distinguish the device slightly sideways, and at the same time stretched out his left hand, and grabbed the feather arrow that broke through the air.
With a "snort", although the feather arrow was grabbed by Jiang Huan, due to the too strong force, the feather arrow slashed through Jiang Huan's palm, made a piercing friction sound, and shot into the floor tiles in front of Jiang Huan again.
Jiang Huan stretched out his left palm, revealing red blood marks. And Shen Chaixing also walked not far away, although he didn't make any moves, it seemed that all this had been completely handed over to Qi Tai to deal with, but where his eyes went, it was the best route for Jiang Huan to escape.
Jiang Huan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, but his brain was spinning at a high speed, actively thinking about ways to get out of trouble.
Qi Tai obviously didn't want to give him too much time to think, and with a wave of his hand, the middle-aged fat man in black tore Jiang Yulin's front chest and placket, took out a short knife with cow ears, and slashed down, spinning, and cutting off a piece of meat! Suddenly, blood overflowed, and Jiang Yulin couldn't make a sound because he was gagged, and could only make a whining sound, obviously in extreme pain.
I only heard Qi Tai say slowly: "Regarding the art of torture, I, Qi Tai, am willing to bow to Jinyiwei, and I can come up with such a simple and rude method." You can think about it slowly, but my people won't stop. By the time you've thought about it, you'll probably have to take a bunch of skeletons with you. ”
After saying that, he waved his hand again, and the middle-aged fat man stabbed down again.
Jiang Huan was vicious and ruthless all his life, treating other people's life and death as nothing, and he didn't even care about his own life and death. But what no one knows is that he loves this only son from the bottom of his heart, but he rarely reveals it, and for some reason, he was caught by Qi Tai in the underbelly.
This knife slashed at Jiang Yulin's body one by one, but it hurt Jiang Huan's heart ten thousand times.
Jiang Huan could no longer see Jiang Yulin's distorted face due to extreme pain, and shouted: "Enough! I can explain everything, but you must let my son Yulin go, otherwise I will commit suicide on the spot now, out of sight and out of mind!"
Qi Tai waved his hand, and the executioner stopped moving. Qi Tai said: "As long as you explain clearly, I can promise you." ”
Jiang Huan shook his head and said, "That's not enough, I ask Shen Chaixing and the people behind you to promise to let my son live!"
Qi Tai showed embarrassment, but at this time, he walked out of the depths of the darkness and said slowly: "Okay, this king will promise you." ”
The person who came was none other than Zhu Yunwen, the current prince and grandson of the Emperor of the Prison Kingdom, followed by Princess Zhu Yunzhen of Yilun and her guards Wu Qingfeng and Yang Rushan.
Zhu Yunwen walked not far away, stopped, and continued: "I can promise that Jiang Yulin will not be held responsible, let him flee to the rivers and lakes, and will not arrange for people to hunt him down and kill him afterwards, and let him fend for himself." Now, you can explain. ”
Jiang Huan confessed that the cuckoo bird plan had already been formulated and implemented by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, but it was delayed during the Northern and Southern Dynasties of the Japanese Kingdom, and when Ashikaga Yoshinori was in power, in addition to arranging his own cronies to deal with this plan, he also contacted a secret organization, so that the secret organization coordinated the affairs of the Ming Dynasty as a whole.
The cuckoo bird planned to operate secretly in the territory of Daming in thirteen secret lines, and they were not in contact with each other, and Jiang Huan was only responsible for the clue of the Jingshi, and the list of personnel was hidden in his secret room. The other twelve hidden lines are not known to themselves, perhaps the secret organization knows.
"So what is the name of this secret organization, and where is it exactly?" Zhu Yunwen asked.
Jiang Huan smiled bitterly: "I have already explained so much, can Your Highness let my son go first?"
As soon as Qi Tai waved his hand, the "Jiang Yulin" immediately returned to normal, and at the same time tore off the mask, it turned out that this person was made up by someone else. Qi Tai pointed to the fat man beside him and smiled: "This brother was known as a thief and deceitful in his early years, and he was proficient in disguise and blindfolding, the bloody scene you saw just now was just an illusion made by him, how can we be as cruel and harmful as you? But after you explain clearly, Your Highness will keep his promise and let Jiang Yulin escape." ”
Jiang Huan suddenly understood in his heart that as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, even the imperial grandson did not dare to do anything to himself without a holy decree and no evidence, and the same was true for Jiang Yulin, so the other party performed this scene and deceived his own testimony. Thinking of this, I regret it, but the wood is already in the boat.
Jiang Huan thought to himself that he had harmed and deceived people all his life, but in the end he was deceived by others, and it should be retribution. After laughing twice, Yang Tian said to Zhu Yunwen: "I don't know too much about this organization, but I heard that it is called the 'Tianxia Society', which is composed of exiled regimes and fugitive nobles from all over the world, and its original purpose is to help each other and achieve the goal of restoration." But as the situation changed, they finally understood that instead of risking the world's great disregard to restore and restore the country, it was better to secretly manipulate the general trend of the world and be the master of the world's secrets. ”
"Where is this organization?"
