Chapter 1 Jinling City Breaks
On the outskirts of Jinling, the sunset will not set.
A thatched hut separated by three rooms, a fenced yard, a few firewood chickens don't know what to eat on the ground, and a big yellow dog lies in front of the woody gate and sticks out his tongue and looks at the path in front of the wooden gate.
The sound of reading aloud in the room is sometimes delicate and sometimes surging!
With a squeak, the big yellow dog looked back at the wooden door that had been opened, and it turned out to be a young man with red lips and white teeth who pushed the door out with a book, and he saw the door and smiled: "Dad, you're back." What kind of prey did you hit today?" I saw a sturdy man standing at the gate, he smiled, and then pointed to the hare in his hand: "Haha, Zhongxuan, I have something delicious today!"
A simple woman in her forties walked out of the kitchen, walked to the big man at the door with a smile, and reached out to dust the snow on his shoulder, while taking the hare in the man's hand: "Lao Li, don't go out in the future, there is chaos outside, I heard that Jinling is going to be captured, and I don't know where our Jiangnan lord should go in the future!"
In the troubled times, it is a great fortune to be alive, not to mention that today I can still eat this game, and the family of three is very happy. In the hall, there was a square table, a pot of rabbit meat, a brazier, a candle, and a family of three laughing, and before they knew it, the sky slowly darkened. The barking of dogs in the distance was also heard a little farther away, and the three people in the hall were also well fed and drunk.
As the night slowly deepened, the couple looked at their son who was asleep on the bed and sighed at each other.
"Lao Li, Jinling is about to be unprotected, the Song thieves are about to steal my Tang Jiangshan, we were ordered to protect His Highness here incognito, and now this place is about to be burned by the flames of war, we have to make other plans as soon as possible!" the woman said with a solemn face.
Lao Li looked at the woman in front of him and held her hand: "I don't know, it's just that the world is so big that there is a place for us to stay?
"Is the current Tang still the same Tang? Is the current Highness still the same Highness? I only know that he is my son, and his name is Li Zhongxuan, he is my son, and I will definitely protect him!" After speaking, he shook off Lao Li's hand and left Li Zhongxuan's bedside. Lao Li also left.
At this time, Li Zhongxuan, who should have been asleep, opened his eyes, and the night was very dark and cold. But there seemed to be light in his eyes, and there was a depth and melancholy in them that should not be at this age.
It turned out that he was not the son of the couple at all, and he had known it for a long time. His father is Li Yu, the king of a country, Wencai Pei Ran, and his mother is Emperor Zhou E, who is a gentle, beautiful and knowledgeable woman. The world thinks that he died at the age of four by the sound of the glass touching the ground, but they don't know that the lord of the country loves this child too much, and the enemy country was strong at that time, and the lie he made up in order to protect him was just to send him out of the palace to be raised. More than ten years have passed like this, and he has grown into a fifteen-year-old boy! Thinking of this, he closed his eyes again, the glory and wealth of the past have long been gone, and now the leisurely is quite good.
The next day, there was a burst of noise, and Li Zhongxuan was so noisy that he opened his eyes.
It turned out that more than a dozen officers and soldiers came from outside the door, saying that they wanted to beg for saliva to drink. Li Zhongxuan looked at the long knife around his parents' necks, and immediately understood, what kind of saliva is this, this is a mess, this is a soldier and a bandit! Then he also had two long knives around his neck.
"Official, we are in the poor countryside, we don't even have anything to eat!" Lao Li said with a bitter face. On the side, the woman also nodded her head again and again.
"Hmph, is there something you say, we have to read it, hahaha!" A middle-aged officer and soldier with a full face said angrily: "Come on, search for me!"
As he spoke, four or five officers and soldiers walked into the hut, only to hear a jingling sound coming from inside, and then one after another came out dejectedly, "Captain Sun, it's so poor that there is no bullshit here!" said to the middle-aged officer and soldier with a pulling face.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from inside, "Captain Sun, there is a secret compartment under this bed, and there are a lot of gold and silver treasures in it!" Captain Sun's face changed, and he commanded them to set up these three people, and rushed in. I heard a burst of laughter from inside. Outside, Lao Li's expression also changed from scared to calm.
I saw Lao Li's neck shrinking downward, and his hands slapped at the hands holding the knife in front of him. Immediately, there was an exclamation from the two, and at this moment, Lao Li actually had a long knife in his left and right hands. With the long knife in his hand, Lao Li suddenly increased his momentum, saying that it was too late and that was fast, Lao Li cut off his four arms after moving left and right for a while, and his wife and children were already protected behind him at this moment.
Only after hearing four screams, everyone reacted and surrounded the three of them. One person in the room flashed in front of everyone, and it was Captain Sun who had already obtained the treasure. I only heard Hehe sneering: "This poor country can have so many gains, first a dark gold and silver treasure, and then a strong martial arts practitioner, what a surprise!"
"Stop talking nonsense, put things down, you guys get out of here!" Lao Li's eyes were bloodshot and he roared angrily!
"You hurt my four brothers, and you dare to speak wildly, it's really bold!" Captain Sun looked at Lao Li and the three of them gloomily: "Give it to me, kill them all!"
When everyone heard this, they all stepped forward with knives, but the arms of four people in front of them were cut off in an instant, and everyone slowly and tentatively moved forward. And no one dares to really make a move, you look at me, I look at you, no one wants to be this bird!
Seeing this, Captain Sun reached into his arms and took out a gold ingot full ten taels: "Whoever killed him, this is who's!" said and pointed at Lao Li with his finger!
Everyone first looked at the gold ingot in Captain Sun's hand, and they all swallowed their saliva, after all, wealth is moving! At this moment, there was a sudden roar, it turned out that an officer and soldier finally couldn't help it, lifted the long knife in his hand, and slashed at Lao Li!
Then everyone rushed up, only to see Lao Li's horizontal knife first blocking the five or six machetes in front of him. Then he went forward, and he cut off the thumbs of several people. At this moment, several knives stabbed insidiously from below, and Li Zhongxuan and the woman behind him all exclaimed in surprise! The palace guard Lao Li at that time was in vain, and he swung the bayonet in front of him with a knife in his left hand, and the force was so great that he directly cut off those bayonets, but at this moment, the knife in his right hand directly cut off the neck of a person in front of him. When the head hit the ground, he was still thinking about why this sword was so strong! In a short moment, five or six more people had no strength to fight again.
The remaining seven or eight officers and soldiers looked at the blood-spurting human head next to them, it was the brother who was still talking and laughing with them just now, and the wails of several people on the side seemed to hammer them hard in the heart. Even if the wealth is moving, it must be enjoyed by life, right? For a while, you look at me and I look at you, and no one dares to move forward.
At this moment, Lao Li stuck the knife on the ground with one hand, and the knife in front of him with the other hand, looked at everyone coldly, and then wiped the blood on his face with his hand, and a demon was alive!
Seeing this, Captain Sun was also a little stunned in his heart, even he would never be able to take such a fast knife technique! Seeing Lao Li's face covered with blood, his heart was even more afraid. But at this time, it would be worse than killing him to let him go away, and how could he be willing to do so! Suddenly he thought of the arm crossbow in his sleeve, which he had bought for fifty taels of silver, and the crossbow arrow had already been simmered with oleander poison. Now that things have come to this point, Captain Sun's anger rises from his heart, and evil grows to the side of his guts. As soon as his left hand was raised, a crossbow arrow instantly hit Lao Li's throat.
Lao Li had already noticed Captain Sun's movements, but he didn't expect the speed of this crossbow arrow to be so fast, he only had time to flash a step, and at this moment, the crossbow arrow had already hit his left shoulder and passed through it!
Seeing this, Captain Sun laughed: "Brothers, give it to me, he has been poisoned!" As he spoke, he raised his knife and ran towards Lao Li! When Lao Li heard this, his heart sank suddenly, and his head was already a little dizzy!
But I didn't have time to think about it, Captain Sun's knife was already slashing at him! Lao Li knew that he would definitely not be able to live today, but His Highness... His own son can't die, his wife can't die! Thinking of this, he showed a faint smile. The knife in his hand was no longer defensive at all, ignoring the long knife that Captain Sun had chopped over, and stabbed Captain Sun in the chest with the knife.
Captain Sun looked at it, but he didn't expect Lao Li to use such a lifeless style of play, Lao Li's martial arts usually far surpass Captain Sun, even if he is now poisoned, but at this moment, he doesn't defend at all and just blindly hurts the enemy and kills the enemy, and his combat power has increased a few points.
Lao Li knew that he couldn't drag it out at this moment, once he died of poison, his wife and children would definitely not be able to live anymore! So, he danced the long knife in his hand and slashed at everyone, and the impermeable knife light was dazzling!
Time passed very slowly, because the blood on his shoulders flowed too fast and too much! Time passed very quickly, because I don't know when, there was only one person left standing in front of Lao Li!
Captain Sun!
Captain Sun made a rude sound, and Lao Li stood motionless with a long knife as if he was dead, looking at Captain Sun in front of him!
Captain Sun sneered: "Finally dead, hahaha, these treasures are mine, I have broken so many brothers, today I will make your wife and children die a bad death, hahaha!" said as he walked towards Lao Li step by step, and picked up the long knife in his hand to slash Lao Li's neck!
The mother and son behind Lao Li didn't dare to look at each other anymore when they saw this, hugging each other and sobbing in a low voice. When the slow and heavy footsteps came, it was the time when their mother and son died!
At this moment, Lao Li, whose eyes seemed to have been dissipated, actually had a little divine light in his eyes, and suddenly grabbed the long knife in his hand with both hands, and stabbed Captain Sun in front of him in the stomach, and at this moment, Captain Sun's long knife also cut Lao Li's neck!
Captain Sun looked at the long knife in his abdomen in surprise and then fell to the ground, Lao Li suddenly showed a smile on his face, then looked back at his wife and children, and then fell to the ground!
