Chapter 13: The Six Captains
The wind blows, and the clouds cover it.
The old locust tree shook and dropped a few fallen leaves.
Chao Jin'er said softly: "I didn't expect so many people to want to kill you." ”
Lu Zhou smiled: "I didn't expect someone to come to save me." ”
Chao Jin'er took out a light yellow handkerchief and gently wiped the blood on the flute, frowning lightly as if the blood on the flute had stained her mood.
"Who is going to kill you?"
"The history of embroidery. ”
"You provoked them?"
"It's bad for them, and besides, the embroidery history wants to kill us Qianniuwei, it doesn't seem to need a reason. ”
“......”
Chao Jin'er was stunned, she suddenly regretted summoning Lu Zhou from outside the gate to Shen Zhou City, he was doing well outside the pass, why did she bring him into the pass to suffer?
There was a sudden silence between the two.
Lu Zhou was reviewing what the blind man had just said in his heart.
Yu Blind admitted that they were sent by the Embroidery History, and Yu Blind also revealed that their mission was to rob Shen Changbai.
In other words, the demon is just a disguise.
The purpose was to divert the attention of the monks and Qianniuwei in Shen Zhou City, and then take the opportunity to rob Shen Changbai, but they didn't know that Shen Changbai was fake, so everything was under the control of Huan Chaolu.
So, what did Unger bring himself here for?
Lu Zhou couldn't figure it out in his heart.
Chaolu doesn't believe in himself, prevents extraneous branches, and wants to get rid of himself with the knife of the embroidered history?
It's a bit too much, isn't it?
Also, what is the explanation of the woman in front of you?
"Boom ......"
Li Zhilan's soft snort broke the silence between Lu Zhou and Chao Jin'er.
Li Zhilan opened her eyes and found herself lying in Lu Zhou's arms, her pretty face turned crimson, and she quickly broke free from Lu Zhou's arms, "Senior brother, that wicked man ......"
"Dead. ”
"Huh?"
"By this ...... Uh, the girl killed. Lu Zhou didn't know what to call Chao Jin'er.
Li Zhilan saw Chao Jin'er standing not far away, and hurriedly arched her hand and said, "Thank you girl for saving me and my senior brother." ”
Chao Jin'er just nodded slightly, and responded to it.
When she saw Li Zhilan leave Lu Zhou's arms, her face looked much better, although through the veil, Lu Zhou couldn't see her face.
Lu Zhou thought about it for a while, and felt that in front of this woman, it was best to correct his position as the captain of the Qianniu Guard, so he said: "Blind Yu revealed a piece of news, the person who embroidered clothes is going to rescue Shen Changbai, I think we have been tricked." ”
Chao Jin'er said, "Who is Shen Changbai?"
Lu Zhou was stunned, and suddenly found that his reasoning seemed to be a little wrong.
"Shen Changbai is the Taishou of Shen Zhou City, and the target of Xiuyishi's action this time is him, I have to quickly inform the imperial capital. Lu Zhou explained.
"I'll help you inform. ”
With a pinch of Jin'er's magic trick, a flying crane jumped into her hand, her fingers swiped in the air, and the information was entered in a moment, and the flying crane let out a low roar, and disappeared between heaven and earth in an instant.
Lu Zhou felt a little toothache.
This woman doesn't play cards according to common sense?
How can she notify the online in such a way?
Lu Zhou hesitated for a moment and said: "Now that Captain Ang is not in the city, most of the men and horses of Qianniuwei have been transferred away by demons, and the capital of the court will be short of manpower at this time, Lu Mou can't delay, I will go back to the city." ”
With that, he picked up the talisman paper.
"Senior brother......" Li Zhilan hurriedly said: "I will also accompany you, this time junior sister will not let the person with the embroidery history have a chance to be poisoned!"
Lu Zhou almost fell off the rune paper with one heel.
He straightened up his face and said, "What are you going to do with you?"
Li Zhilan took off the sword, "Senior brother only has the cultivation of the Dan realm, and the junior sister is not at ease." ”
Lu Zhou: "......"
"I'll go too. Chao Jin'er's cold voice sounded in Lu Zhou's ears.
Lu Zhou: "......"
Did you do it on purpose?
Lu Zhou had no choice but to fly, pretending not to see them, Chao Jin'er and Li Zhilan also flew very slowly, and kept following Lu Zhou's sides.
As soon as he entered the flight, Lu Zhou's lazy expression completely changed, he became like a hunting dog, with ears, nose and eyes, but he used all the skills he could use to detect the surrounding situation, as long as there was a trace of the enemy's breath, he would definitely not miss it.
Be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, after all, he doesn't know if there is an ambush in the history of embroidery.
At the entrance of Liujia Village, a breeze blew, blowing up the ashes on the ground.
Except for the scorching marks on the ground, no one would have thought that a moment earlier, there had been a fierce battle full of accidents.
After the tea effort.
A group of monks cursed and returned.
"The demon of bullshit, it's just a Xibei goods!"
"I heard the withered leaf Zen master say that this person is an evil cultivator. ”
"Are these evil cultivators idle and panicking?"
"Who knows...... Hey, how can there be any traces of a fight here?"
I don't know who discovered the anomaly at the entrance of the village first, and the group of monks immediately observed the burning marks on the ground, and after a while, someone found three traces of the same burning hundreds of zhang away.
"Amitabha, if the old man is not mistaken, there should be three corpses on the ground that were burned by burning bones and devouring hearts. ”
The withered leaf Zen master folded his hands and recited Buddhist scriptures in his mouth, his face full of compassion.
It's just that the body has been withdrawn dozens of feet away.
The group of monks looked at each other, and their faces were quite strange.
I don't know who shivered first.
"My academy hasn't been cleaned yet, so I'm going to take the next step. ”
"It seems that my wife called me home for dinner and to say goodbye. ”
After two breaths, the entrance of Liujia Village became empty again, as if this group of monks had never come, leaving only the collapsed Dharma platform creaking in the cold wind.
No one noticed that the people of Qianniuwei, who had just chased out together, seemed to have disappeared since they were chased out......
......
......
Lu Zhou returned to Shenzhou City and found that Shenzhou City was surprisingly quiet.
Except for the occasional rooster and dog barking, there was no other sound at all, all the businesses were closed, and there was no prosperity on both sides of the road.
From a distance, you can see that a sky-high sword light came out of the Taishou Mansion.
Lu Zhou groaned slightly, and the royal talisman quietly flew to the Taishou Mansion, at this time it was obviously too late to inform Gao Zhuang, it is estimated that even if he didn't notify him, Gao Zhuang would definitely find out the strangeness of the Taishou Mansion.
Let's hope nothing happens.
As soon as Lu Zhou fell into the courtyard of the Taishou Mansion, he immediately saw a masked man in black.
The man in black was staring at him with straight eyes.
The black-clothed man's eyes were bloodshot and protruding from his sockets, revealing half of his face that was indescribably hideous, neither silent nor motionless, like a stone statue in a Taoist temple.
It's a dead man!
Lu Zhou sighed: "Sure enough, ......"
It seems that Chaolu has changed his plan, from initially wanting to insert Shen Changbai into the Southern Zhou as a pawn, to now using Shen Changbai as a fishing bait.
Chao Jin'er also saw the man in black, and frowned slightly.
Li Zhilan's face turned pale with fright, but she was even more determined to protect Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou continued to walk to the backyard, the backyard of the Taishou Mansion was very ordinary, a crooked neck tree, two rockeries, very suitable for a literati like Shen Changbai.
In the small courtyard, there were six corpses that were the same as the men in black outside.
In the middle of the courtyard, Chao Lu stood there with his hands behind his back, with an indifferent expression, as if there were not six corpses lying on the ground, but only six dogs that could no longer jump.
Unger stood to his left, the dazzling sword in his hand, the tip of which was still dripping with blood.
It is clear that these corpses are his masterpieces.
Standing on Chaolu's right was Shen Changbai, with his head down, unable to see any expression.
Chao Lu saw Lu Zhou walk into the courtyard, and then saw Chao Jin'er behind Lu Zhou, his brows furrowed slightly, for some reason, Lu Zhou always felt that after Shen Changbai saw him come in, his head was a little lower.
There were four people standing behind Chaolu, a child, a woman, a middle-aged man, and an old man.
It's all acquaintances.
The child is the child in the sickle murder case, the woman is the child's mother, and the middle-aged man is the catcher.
The old man is the old man who sent Lu Zhou to Shenzhou City.
I'm afraid it's also the old man Xu who was killed.
Lu Zhou smiled, and in an instant, he sorted out the cause and effect.
Shen Changbai's case of confusion is fake.
It's all acting.
As for the purpose, it is nothing more than two possibilities: winning the trust of the embroidery history or responding to the temptation of the embroidery history.
The only thing Lu Zhou didn't understand was why Chaolu suddenly changed his mind and didn't send Shen Changbai to Southern Zhou?
At this time, Chao Lu smiled slightly: "Captain Lu is back, this time it is really a coincidence, I Chao Lu's six captains, it is rare to gather." ”
The Captain ......
Unger, the child, the woman, the middle-aged man, the old man, plus Lu Zhou, there are exactly six.
Lu Zhou turned around,
So, who is this woman?
