Section 777 The Night of Chang'an

Chang'an on a snowy night is frozen to the bone, nothing will happen in such weather, and anything can happen.

The news of Yan Feng's violent death came out on such a night, and it is said that he died in the gold cave. Such a death was really undignified, and the girls present were scared to the point of madness.

For the leaders of the Sword Sect, this matter has a reasonable process, and there are also elements that are unexpected.

Although Yan Feng turned back after being taught by Old Master Liu, he never got rid of some habits. For the vast majority of men, it's not a big deal, he's just making the same mistakes that men often make.

Therefore, it is normal for Yan Feng to be in that kind of place, and it is reasonable. What is surprising is that he is young after all, and his body has never been infected with diseases, why did he suddenly die, is there a conspiracy in this?

The incident happened at night, and the official road of Chang'an City, which was covered with snow, was inaccessible under the dark sky, which hindered the spread of news to a certain extent.

However, this is only for the general public.

The moonlight was quietly sprinkled on the snow in front of Liu Yu's study in the backyard of Dali Temple, and a man wearing a cloak and a hat knocked on the door of the study.

After getting permission from the house, the man in the cloth observed all directions and made sure that no one was peeping in the dark, so he was relieved to enter the house and closed the wooden door with his backhand.

The man in the cloth is Tang Biao, his nose is red from the cold, it should be because he has been in an extremely cold place for too long. After meeting with the boss, he recounted what happened tonight in detail.

At the end, he added, "I don't know who killed Yan Feng, why did you choose to do it in that kind of place? Is it to ruin the reputation of his father Yan Lie?"

He had a stomach full of questions.

Liu Yu didn't answer Tang Biao's question, for him, the cause of Yan Feng's death didn't matter, whether it was caused by Yan Lie's political enemies, or the ghosts of those martial arts people in the Huangchao Righteous Army outside the city, all of this no longer mattered.

Focusing too much on the cause will only make people miss the critical period of solving the problem.

His lips were tightly closed, and after a moment, he spoke, "You go again and find Yan Lie." ”

"Bring him to Dali Temple, please interrogate him personally?" Tang Biao asked for the details of the mission.

"No, kill him. Liu Yu sighed, "As soon as Yan Feng dies, Yan Lie will rebel, and he will inevitably point his resentment at the Sword Gate, thinking that the Sword Gate has harmed him." ”

"If he is opposed, he will die!" Tang Biao didn't believe that Yan Lie really dared to rebel, and now the entire Chang'an City was under the control of the Sword Sect. Although there are not many people in the Sword Sect, all of them are masters, which is enough to destroy a clan and clear a surname.

Liu Yu laughed when he heard this, "The emperor has fled, Chang'an City is no longer Li Tang's world, and the courtiers such as Yan Lie have been depressed for a while. Yan Lie has always wanted to leave, and the reason why he has endured so far is just a rat bogey. His weapon is Yan Feng, and now that the weapon is gone, it has become a matter of course to throw rats. ”

Tang Biao was suddenly woken up, and after giving a salute to the master, he hurriedly left the study and disappeared into the snowy night.

Yan's Mansion is brilliantly lit, but the atmosphere is indescribably quiet.

To be precise, it is not quiet, but a solemn atmosphere.

All the subordinates in the palace have not experienced today's scene, even if their lord has served as a general of the imperial court all the year round, it is normal to be decisive in killing.

Three bloody people were hung high in iron chains in the lobby of the Yan Mansion, scraps of clothes and meat crumbs were scattered all over the ground, and several soldiers and soldiers who were executing stood panting to the side, their chests heaving.

There was a desk not far from the three of them, Yan Lie was sitting on the side of the desk, his left arm fell on the desk, his body was slightly tilted, and his face was a little scary.

It was just one night, and he seemed to age a lot.

"Did you ask that?" Yan Lie muttered.

"Asked a few. A butler hurried over, "Two of the three were in the house, and the other was serving tea outside. ”

"Then who hurt my son?" Yan Lie asked.

"This ......," the butler was in trouble, "and the three of them could not say why, saying that they were asleep at that moment. ”

"This is clearly a lie, keep beating me, I must find out the truth. Yan Lie was furious and took the case.

Outside the lobby, the maid servant who heard the sound hurriedly slipped away from the smoke and fled into the distance.

The housekeeper was frightened, he secretly glanced at the three bloody people hanging, "If you fight again, you will die, I'm afraid you won't be able to ask anything, it's better to let them slow down and ask again tomorrow." If you can't ask anything, then ......" he gestured with his knife to his neck.

"I don't care, my son is gone, and I still care about the lives and deaths of others!" Yan Lie shouted, "This must have something to do with the Sword Gate, either they did it or because of them! I fulfilled my agreement and defended Chang'an City for them so far, but what I got was such a result!"

He paced a few steps and said to the butler, "You can gather all the skilled servants in the house now, select the athletes from among them, and go out of the city tonight!"

"Where are you going?" asked the butler.

As soon as he said this, he realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered all the soldiers to go out and close the door from the outside.

Yan Lie lowered his voice, "Go to the camp of the righteous army to find Huang Chao." ”

The housekeeper was surprised, "The master means to unite with Huang Chao, and the inside and outside should join forces to win the Sword Sect in one fell swoop?"

Yan Lie's eyes were blood-red, "I am an official, Huang Chao is a thief, how can an official and a thief unite, but it is feasible to kill a dog with a thief." Let the Zhangjianmen and Huangchao fight, and we will take the opportunity to leave the city and go to Shu to join Your Majesty. ”

"Master's clever plan, I'll do it now!" the butler bowed back.

But before he could take a few steps, he noticed a strange phenomenon.

His vision changed dramatically, and he felt that the lobby in front of him was getting higher and higher, and with a thud, he could only look at the ground under his feet.

He felt dizzy, his perspective changed, and then he saw his headless body standing on its own, blood like an arrow.

Yan Lie was startled when he saw this, and he wanted to shout, "Whoever is killing people, if it's a hero, stand up!", but before his voice could come out, he felt a tightness in his chest.

Thick blood blocked his throat, preventing him from making the slightest sound.

Yan Lie covered his neck in horror, his eyes were too big because of fear, and he didn't even see the silver light that had just swept across his neck.

What a terrifying weapon this must be, much faster than the crossbow arrows in the barracks.

The blood flowed out, and the last trace of luster in Yan Lie's eyes disappeared with it. The burly body fell to the ground, and the muffled sound was not enough to alarm the soldiers in charge of the garrison outside the main hall gate.

A soft groan came from the beam, "The Tao is natural, there is no disobedience, the direction of virtue, and the trend of the heart." The saint came into the world to teach all nations with moral mantras......"

The snowflakes are falling, and the night in Chang'an City is still quiet.
