Li Xiancheng did not send anyone to chase after him.

Fang Cai's three blows are the whirlwind three consecutive slashes that he relied on to become famous, one knife shocked his will, two knives destroyed the true yuan, and three knives cut off his vitality.

He expected that Zhao Lanjiang would not survive tonight.

The next thing to do is to get rid of Li Xianzhong, he has a reputation among the White Horse Righteous in Hidden Yang City, although now the Hidden Yang City Defense has been replaced by his own people, if he is let out, let him unite the five thousand righteous servants outside the city, it will be bad for Hidden Yang City. These white horse servants are all sons and daughters born and raised in Yinyang, and once they are not handled well, I am afraid that they will bring variables to their imperial hegemony.

Li Bufan was tied up with five flowers, and was escorted to Li Xiancheng, with a resolute and calm expression, without the slightest fear.

Li Xiancheng saw that his eyebrows were clear and beautiful, and he cherished his talents and loved talents, so he decided to give Li Bufan a chance.

"Young man, is it that your family has been coerced by thieves?"

Li Bufan said: "There has never been." ”

"Isn't there any unspeakable distress?"

"Not ever?"

"Is that a lack of money?"

"Penniless, not short of money. ”

Li Xiancheng was puzzled, "Then why do you want to open the city gate for the traitors?"

Hearing Li Xiancheng's question, he raised his head and looked directly at Li Xiancheng, without the slightest fear, and said: "For the sake of justice and righteousness, for the sake of the people of Yinyang!"

Li Xiancheng sneered angrily, "As a pawn of the Hidden Yang City, you secretly let the Hidden Yang rebels go and put the safety of tens of thousands of people in the Hidden Yang at risk, this is the justice you want?"

Li Bufan also smiled.

"A national thief and villain, also worthy of talking about justice and justice? For your own selfish desires, treason to the country and the enemy, have you ever considered tens of thousands of people in Yinyang?"

Li Xiancheng said, "I just took Yinyang to take the right step." ”

Li Bufan asked rhetorically, "Even if you don't hesitate to plunge Yinyang City into fire and water?" Twenty years ago, the nineteen cities of Yinyang City were in continuous war, a small war in three years, and a big war in five years.

"But they have lost their dignity and the bloody nature of the Hidden Yang Man! After kneeling for a long time, their knees are weak. ”

Li Bufan smiled faintly, "The old city lord is right, he would rather have peace than a good war." What you have done is not for the well-being of the people, but for your desire for power, to bring Hidden Sun City back into the abyss, in the past few days, I have seen a lot of people, since they dare to be angry and dare not speak, someone must come to tell you!"

"You!"

Li Xiancheng was furious.

Li Bufan's words touched his sore spot. He was so angry that he wanted to drop something, but found that there was nothing around him, and he said sharply to his subordinates, "Put him in the prison, and after the enthronement ceremony tomorrow, peel the skin and fill the grass and light the sky lantern!"

The subordinates were shocked when they heard this.

This kind of punishment is appalling, it is said that the emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty created, bury people in the soil, cut the top of the head with a sharp blade, and then drip into the mercury, the skin and flesh will shrink when the mercury is encountered, the punished person will not help the severe pain, desperately climb up, break free from the skin bag and come out, the death is extremely terrifying.

Li Bufan smiled.

He asked Li Xiancheng, "Are you scared?"

Li Xiancheng didn't answer, Li Bufan laughed, "You're scared!"

Someone stepped forward to drag him down, Li Bufan waved his hand, pushed the man away, and said, "I have hands and feet, go by myself!"

......

The lake is deep and icy.

Li Chengcheng carried Zhao Liangjiang on his back and swam to the shore along the small canal that led water into the lake. To his surprise, Tai Chi Lou didn't send someone to hunt them down, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhao Lanjiang was defeated.

Martial arts all the way, there is no opportunism. The gap between the realms of the two cannot be made up by momentum, determination, and perseverance.

At this moment, Zhao Lanjiang's face is like a blank paper, relying on the only remaining true yuan, instinctively protecting the heart, whether he can come back to life depends on the will of heaven.

The palace was full of people, all preparing for the enthronement ceremony after dawn.

An ox cart passed by their hiding place, and there was a stench of the vehicle carrying the golden water. The gold water is a filthy thing, and during the day it is collected in the barrels of the east gate, and at night, it is transported out of the house.

Li Chengcheng stepped forward, knocked the coachman unconscious with one palm, dragged him into the grass, and said to Zhao Yanjiang, "Brother Zhao, I want to wronged you." ”

The third young master of the Li family in Jinling, who was born with a habit of cleanliness, has never done these things, but if he wants to save Zhao Lanjiang, he can only do this.

There were three wooden barrels on the ox cart, and Li Chengcheng held his breath, opened the lid, and put Zhao Lanjiang into one of the barrels, and only closed the lid after making sure that there was no problem.

Drive the ox cart to the northeast gate.

A dragoon guard stopped and said, "Who are you, Lao Sun?"

Li Chengcheng deliberately lowered his voice and said, "My third uncle was infected with the wind and cold yesterday, and he couldn't exert his strength, and he was afraid of delaying the major affairs of the City Lord's Mansion, so he sent me to collect gold and water tonight." ”

The dragoon guard held a sword in his hand, and circled the carriage, if it was an ordinary grain cart, he would use a long knife to stab it, but he also avoided this filthy thing, and ordered his subordinates, "You two, go and test it!"

The two men walked over with great reluctance.

Li Tingcheng's heart was raised, he secretly used his internal force and made up his mind, if once exposed, he would rush out.

At this time, a voice came from not far away, "General Lu, are you idle today?"

When the leader of the dragoon guard saw the visitor, he smiled and said, "It turns out that it is the Chai military division! ”

Chai Gongwang walked over, "Where is the duty, there are so many big things happening in the City Lord's Mansion tonight, you don't go to investigate, you waste time here!"

The leader knew that he was a celebrity in the City Lord's Mansion and would be the future prime minister, so he didn't dare to offend, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, it's important!"

Ox carts out of the house.

Chai Gongwang followed.

He doesn't care about Zhao Lanjiang's life and death, but he cares about the Gu poison in himself, if Zhao Lanjiang has three long and two short, and once the three-day period passes, then won't he die with a whimper?

He came to the ox cart and said to Li Chengcheng, "Come with me!"

Li Chengcheng knew his intentions, followed Chai Gongwang back to his house, and carried Zhao Lanjiang out, making a smell, Chai Gongwang ordered someone to bring well water, splashed it on Zhao Lanjiang, and washed away the filth on his body.

"I've done what I'm asked to do, where's the antidote?"

Li Chengcheng was afraid that he would regret it after knowing the truth, and said, "On me, after tomorrow, it will naturally be given to you." Find a secluded place, and I'm going to heal him. ”

An hour later, Zhao Lanjiang woke up and turned around.

He said with a dejected face, "I'm defeated." ”

Li Chengcheng said, "No, if you don't die, you won't be defeated." ”

In the battle of Taijilou, Zhao Lanjiang underestimated Li Xiancheng's skills, causing the traverse knife to be shattered. If you had a golden knife in your hand, you might not have lost so badly.

However, Yang Xiaoxiao's people did not send the golden knife in time.

Zhao Lanjiang forcibly sat up, and at this moment, his horizontal knife intent was cut off, but the golden knife intent flowed between the meridians, and he sensed a little difference.

There seemed to be a strange force around this place.

He asked, "Where is this?"

Li Chengcheng said, "Chai Gongwang's mansion." ”

Chai Gong said, "To be exact, it is the old mansion of the golden knife Li Qiuyi before he became the lord of the city, Li Xiancheng felt that it was unfortunate here, and gave me this mansion." ”

No wonder so.

It turned out to be Li Qiuyi's old house.

Zhao Lanjiang stood up, came to the door, and looked at the mansion. It turned out that Li Qiuyi practiced knives here back then, no wonder there was a familiar feeling.

There were traces of Li Qiuyi in the courtyard.

Li Tingcheng and Chai Gongwang couldn't feel it, but Zhao Lanjiang, who had inherited Li Qiuyi's knife way, could sense the difference. The sword intent left by Li Qiuyi was full of heaven and earth, and filled this courtyard.

In the end, Zhao Lanjiang stopped his eyes on the well in the middle of the courtyard.

In Suzhou, Li Qiuyi asked him to come to Yinyang, and once told him that there was a well in his house, and the red water wine brewed from this well was extraordinarily fragrant, so he had the opportunity to taste it.

Zhao Lanjiang always thought that this well was in the city lord's mansion.

Today, he realized that what Li Qiuyi was talking about was this well.

Li Qiuyi inherited the way of the golden sword, just the shape, and the real bone, in Hidden Yang City, the real blood, is in this well. At that time, he took a fancy to Zhao Lanjiang's temperament, and he couldn't predict whether Zhao Lanjiang was a person worthy of trust and could take on the responsibility of guarding Yinyang, so he deliberately left him a clue.

In the dark, under the providence of heaven, Zhao Lanjiang came to this step, resisted the entire Hidden Yang City on his shoulders, and moved forward with a heavy load.

Zhao Lanjiang said to Li Chengcheng, "Brother Li, I want to ask you for something." ”

Li Chengcheng said, "You owe me a life, and you want to ask me to do something, why am I so kind?"

"In the past, you were Xiao Jinyan's friend, and from today on, you are my friend of Zhao Lanjiang!"

Li Tingcheng turned around, he couldn't stand this kind of hypocritical words, and said lightly, "Li Tingcheng doesn't need friends." ”

Zhao Lanjiang knotted.

After waiting for a while, Li Chengcheng asked, "What are you doing?"

Zhao Lanjiang leaned over and whispered a few words, Li Chengcheng nodded, "Zhao Lanjiang, I will help you with things, one day in the future, if I ask you to do something, you can't refuse me!"

Zhao Lanjiang said, "As long as you Li Chengcheng speaks, even if I want to kill your whole family, I won't be ambiguous!"

Li Tingcheng scolded, "Get out!"

And he said, "Don't lose your life. ”

With that, he drifted away.

Zhao Lanjiang looked at Chai Gong again, "Mr. Chai, you have helped Zhao a lot in the past two days, there is a saying, I advise you, after dawn, leave Yinyang City, take your gold and silver with you, and go as far as you want." ”

Chai Gongwang asked, "Why?"

Zhao Lanjiang said, "Tomorrow, Hidden Yang City will flow into a river of blood!"

When he said this, Zhao Lanjiang's expression was very calm.

In the battle of Taijilou tonight, Zhao Lanjiang lost in a mess, and now there is no one in ten skills, but Chai Gongwang felt a suffocating fear from this calm.

"What about the antidote?"

Zhao Lanjiang said, "You weren't poisoned at all, what I gave you to eat that day was just a piece of mud rubbed off your body." ”

Chai Gongwang retched for a while, but he couldn't spit it out.

"Let's go, this place doesn't belong to you. ”

Chai Gongwang looked at Zhao Lanjiang with a complicated expression, and finally he nodded, "There will be a period later!"

Zhao Lanjiang glanced at the east.

Dawn.

There are less than six hours left before the enthronement ceremony.

Zhao Lanjiang came to the mouth of the well, and countless sword intents surged towards him with a fierce killing aura.

Hidden Sun City.

Hidden Dragon City.

At that time, the ancestor of the Li family built the eight-armed Nezha City, and in the palace, he built a shocking array. And in Hidden Sun City, a large array was also built.

To be precise, Hidden Sun City is a array.

Li Qiuyi didn't tell him.

But Zhao Lanjiang knew.

Li Qiuyi's golden knife meaning originated from this giant array.

It had been in the Hidden Sun City, waiting for someone to wake him up.

What Li Xiancheng didn't do, Zhao Lanjiang did it.

Zhao Lanjiang jumped into the well.

In the Hidden Sun City at dawn, there was a roar underground, and a dragon roar was heard.

Hidden Sun City, awakened.
