Hunter Killer
The streets of the ancient city are home to more than 180 households. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info there is a county office, there is a county official, and the county official is a newly appointed named Ling Husheng. He had not yet had time to burn his three fires, which had been extinguished by the rain. Two days ago, rainy day. The county office, the county government of Ben and his own, suddenly broke into a group of people, and fifty galloping horse captains stood outside the yamen. More than 50 people walked in outside the door, each carrying a knife behind their backs, which was the strength of iron and blood. Seeing that the third-class officials of the county government here couldn't speak.
The leader asked, "Are you a county official?"
Ling Husheng replied: "This official is exactly!"
The leader said: "Okay! How many households are there in your street?!" made Husheng feel that his tone of voice was majestic and could not be refused.
Ling Husheng said again: "One hundred and eighty-two households. ”
They only said one word to Ling Husheng: "Everyone must evacuate within a day!"
Without waiting for Ling Husheng to refuse, they took out a public edict.
The power of a public official is far greater than that of a county official.
The public oracle is usually very effective, because it doesn't matter what method you use, as long as it turns out.
The threat of death worked very well.
Isn't death terrible?
The streets are windy and the lights are shining. But there was no one. The long street is mournful like a tomb, and there is no voice.
It was as if life was going to end here.
A bright moon is like water.
Under a long lamp.
Fifty people. The long lights are on, and the fog is getting darker.
Fifty people have entered the long street.
Fifty people, skilled in knives and bows, and extremely experienced in killing, are like oil sellers who skillfully pour oil into the gourd through the small holes of copper coins, but the money is not wet. Killing people is as easy for them as they are at the disposal of cattle. They kill like an ox. They will kill with the help of anything, seize any opportunity, and use fast and accurate methods, and now they not only want to kill, but also to hide and disguise, which seems to be more difficult than killing people. But they did a great job. The long street is not too long, and there are already twenty of them already hidden in this long street, like this fog blown away by the wind, and disappearing, twenty people are not only like a net but also like an urn, more like a hunter slowly waiting for the arrival of their prey.
The long street suddenly became lively, as lively as before, the long street is still the same long street, but the people on the long street have changed to new people.
In the prefectural government.
The wine is spring green, and the flowers and candles are red at night. A cup of rosewood, thirty years old. Under the candles, four glasses of wine have been drunk. Jiang Yuelou said: "No matter how difficult it is, you must make the best preparations. Zao Wou-Ki said, "Yes." Jiang Yuelou said again: "Make the best preparations, and the planned things will be much simpler." Zao Wou-Ki said again: "Yes." Jiang Yuelou asked, "Have you made the best preparations?" Zhao Wuji nodded and said, "Your subordinates have made the best preparations." ”
The evening breeze and clouds cover the stars.
Staggered, continue to drink in the cup.
Jiang Yuelou continued to drink and said, "Do you know the secret of the blue-eyed golden toad." Next to him, Zao Wou-Ki continued: "I know, this can't be considered a secret. Jiang Yuelou nodded. continued: "It is said that those peerless masters on the rivers and lakes have traveled overseas, leaving behind earth-shattering treasures and shocking martial arts. Zao Wou-Ki said: I heard that for more than 30 years, no one has found this treasure. Jiang Yuelou said: "No one has found the treasure in this blue-eyed golden toad, but the location of the treasure is already known. Zhao Wuji said: "Oh?" Jiang Yuelou said: "The only people who know this secret are the pirate leader and his subordinates who are known as the Seagod King in the martial arts. King Poseidon has been in the rivers and lakes of Neptune Island for many years, but his subordinates have come to Jiangnan with the secret of this treasure. Zao Wou-Ki already understood a little. Jiang Yuelou said: "Do you know the general Gongsun of the imperial court?" Of course Zhao Wuji knew. Because he was a bandit before. So he said: "But the Gongsun Dafeng who has made a contribution to pacifying the Liukou and suppressing the bandits and has been awarded the title of third-class viscount by the imperial court is not successful?" Zhao Wuji said again: "Could it be that he is a subordinate of the Seagod King?" Jiang Yuelou said: "Not bad." Gongsun Dafeng had already told the prince the secret when he returned to the imperial court. Zhao Wuji was puzzled: "The prince is above 10,000 people alone, I don't know what the use of the treasures in the rivers and lakes is......" Jiang Yuelou said: Putian is not the king's land. Zao Wou-Ki nodded.
King Shun Cheon. The throne of Suncheon is extremely popular, and the new emperor is young, supplemented by the regent. Jiang Yuelou said: "We were ordered by the prince to find something in the treasure. Zao Wou-Ki didn't ask, because he knew that his subordinates shouldn't ask themselves, so he resolutely didn't ask. Jiang Yuelou suddenly became serious. Looking at Zhao Wuji, he said sternly: "This matter is a matter of life and death, honor and disgrace, if you win, you will be crowned with an official and a lord, and if you are defeated, you will ......" Jiang Yuelou did not continue, Jiang Yuelou has never been a person who said such things. Listening to Jiang Yuelou then ask: Do you know? He still understands the truth that one is prosperous and the other is lost. Zhao Wuji suddenly knelt on the ground and said: His subordinates swore allegiance to the Lord and swore allegiance to the prince. Jiang Yuelou sighed and said slowly: "You go down......"
The night is quiet and empty. People are under the window. On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the treasure will be revealed. So what to do now. Jiang Yuelou only said one word: wait. The net set by the trapper, as a hunter, the next thing he has to do is wait, wait for the prey to appear.
Three hundred miles of starry night galloping. The sword is still a famous sword, but people are very embarrassed. Gao Yucheng and Liu finally arrived in Suzhou City before the first day of May.
Ten miles south of the city. Under the West Que Peak, two swaying figures, they looked very embarrassed, but their eyes still had a radiant light. They don't feel tired at all, because their hearts are full of love, and the people they miss are ahead.
Gao Yucheng suddenly asked: Brother Liu, how about you and I running for more than 300 miles overnight?
Liu Ru also asked: How is the senior brother?
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The people they miss and the people they love are ahead, so how can they feel tired?
Love is a magical power.
But they're worried.
I'm worried about whether I can break the sword slave's sword.
They are worried about the person they love, and they are worried about whether the person they love is safe and sound now.
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but speed up their pace again.
Gao Yucheng is even more worried, not only Wanqing, not only love, but also his responsibility and mission, the death plan is still going on, there are still four days left before the fifth day of the fifth month of May, and time is running out.
They had reached the Temple of the Hidden Mist.
Liu Ru glanced at the temple and said:
There is no time in the temple, accompanied by green lantern scrolls.
Gao Yuchengdao: Brother Liu, what did you think of here?
It's a free and easy way.
Liu Ru had a light in his eyes. I'm thinking, if Xiangjun is okay this time, I would like to be with her in the fields and countryside, and the idle clouds and wild cranes as companions.
Gao Yuchengdao: Yes, just like this mountain temple, where does the sorrow of mundane things come from......
Liu said: Exactly.
Liu Ru smiled and said: If you have time, you can come over for a few drinks.
Gao Yucheng said: "Oh?"
Liu said: "Of course my friends want to drink!"
Gao Yucheng asked, "We are friends...?"
Liu said: "We can also be regarded as sharing suffering. ”
Gao Yucheng thought about it and smiled: It seems to be yes.
Liu said: "Aren't you friends after tribulation?"
Gao Yucheng smiled and sighed: "It seems to be." ”
Liu Ru sighed lightly and said, "In six years, I have been obsessed with revenge and sword, and I have missed a lot in six years...... Family, love, friendship ......"
Mountain trails, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on them.
Gao Yucheng reflected the sunset, his posture was still upright, and he smiled: It's not too late now. Wine is still wine, and people are still the same.
Liu Ru also smiled: Not bad...... Yes, it's never too late to live at any time.
Gao Yuchengdao: Yes, it's not too late.
The prodigal son did not change his money.
The prodigal son has a home, and it is not too late.
Why is there no chanting in the mountain temple? Why is there no sound in the mountain temple? The two of them didn't know, and they didn't think about it. They had already walked in front of the temple, and they did not find any traces of blood on the road in front of the temple.
The camphor tree has a wide canopy and a strong aroma of camphor, which can mask any smell of blood.
The two have arrived at the amorous building.
The amorous building in front of me has lost its former glory, although it is still standing in the mountains, still standing among the flowers, but it is a ruin.
The amorous building seems to have been destroyed overnight by a violent storm in the mountains, and there is no former light.
It's spring and summer, and the flowers are blooming on the ruins.
But there was no one here.
There is no sword slave who is as black as ink and white as snow.
There are no girls in white who are delicate and clear. There is no Li Xiangjun and Yan Wanqing.
Some of them are just a mess, a dead silence.
Both of them shouted at the same time: Not good!
The two of them frowned, their swords unsheathed, their bodies flying, skimming across the courtyard and the pond, and they searched every house in the amorous building.
Little by little, their hearts sank.
Searched every room. Rummage through every nook and cranny.
The light in their eyes dimmed little by little as the search took place.
No result.
Who can understand their feelings. They are physically and mentally exhausted.
The two collapsed to the ground.
The clock is ticking.
Time is terrible and quiet.
Gao Yucheng broke the silence and asked: We are all masters of the sword?
Liu Ru smiled bitterly and said: We are masters of the sword, but we can't even save our own women.
Gao Yuchengdao: That's not what I said.
Liu said: We are indeed masters of the sword.
Gao Yuchengdao: Who do you say can find this place and who can defeat the sword slave of the Sea God King?
Liu Ru didn't answer, he has been debuting in the rivers and lakes for ten years, but he can't think of it.
The Drunken Man Mountain Tower was originally built in this hidden mountain forest, and everyone entered the Drunken Man Mountain Tower from another mountain road. The sword slave has the sword moves of the Seagod King, and even they are not sure to defeat the sword slave, and I don't know who else has that great ability.
Liu said: "There are many masters of the rivers and lakes who are hidden in the world. ”
Gao Yucheng affirmed: "Yes".
Liu Ru said again: "Since they are hidden in the rivers and lakes, they will definitely not come out." ”
Gao Yucheng muttered slightly and said, "Not bad." ”
Liu said, "Who do you say they are?"
Gao Yucheng didn't speak, and he couldn't think of it.
Gao Yucheng said: "We've searched all the rooms?"
Liu Ru scrutinized: "There is absolutely nothing missing!"
Gao Yucheng sighed: "In such a big place as the Amorous Building, it is impossible to have no clues. ”
Liu asked, "Then where do we start?"
Gao Yucheng suddenly jumped up and said, "Go to the pond!"
"Pond!?" Liu was stunned for a moment, and her eyes lit up.
The wind suddenly blows a pool of spring water.
The pond is the most conspicuous place, but it is also often the most easily missed place. It is obviously impossible to leave no traces in such a large place as the drunkard mountain building, and the pond is full of fallen flowers. The pond is wide, watery, and deep, and it is also a good place to hide the traces. Finding someone is not necessarily in the room, there is likely to be someone in the pond.
There were a dozen dead people in the pond. More than a dozen corpses were guards in the building. The mud in the pond was thick, and they found more than twenty more bodies in the mud, which had been washed away by the clear water to reveal their original faces. In the end, they found two more corpses, and the two were very surprised, they turned out to be black and white sword slaves.
Gao Yucheng glanced at Liu Ru and said, "I didn't find anything else." ”
Liu Ru nodded and said, "Me too." ”
Gao Yucheng said: "This is good news, at least it shows that the two of them still have a chance to live." ”
Liu said: "Yes. ”
Gao Yucheng said: "Those more than 20 corpses must be uninvited guests from outside. ”
Liu said, "What are their identities?" Gao Yucheng shook his head and said, "I haven't found any marks about their identities, but judging from their fingers and muscles, they are undoubtedly masters of killing." ”
Liu said: "Yes, not only that, but they also attacked at night. ”
Gao Yucheng said: "Oh?"
Liu said: "The degree of change in these corpses is not much, and the muscle and skin color should not seem to exceed three days. These dozen or so guards are already masters, but there are a few deaths and few wounds, and the expressions on their faces are full of surprise!"
Gao Yucheng said: "Is it surprise or surprise?"
Liu Ru said: "They were all killed when their defenses were the most lax!"
Gao Yucheng said: "Yes, only in the spirit and heart of the midnight people are the most relaxed!"
Liu said: "It seems that these people know how to kill. ”
Gao Yucheng muttered: "Midnight Surprise Attack, who are these people?"
The corpses of the sword slaves were already stiff, and their bodies still retained a strange posture, and their corpses seemed to reveal some information.
They had more than two dozen wounds on their bodies.
More than two dozen wounds were shallow and narrow, all of them sword wounds.
They were already sword masters, and they shouldn't have had so many wounds.
Why do they show so many flaws?
What are they going to say, what are they going to say?
Shen Shuai had arrived outside the ancient city.
More than ten miles outside the ancient city, dense forest.
The crows in the forest flew in shock.
A white dove landed on Shen Shuai's shoulder.
Shen Shuai immediately said to Wu Xi: "The Five Elements Protector is about half a day's journey, let's rest here first." ”
Wu Xi nodded and said, "Although the brothers have good physical strength, they have been running for three days and three nights, and they are already sleepy and tired, so why not rest in the city." What if someone sneaks up here?"
Shen Shuai gestured and said, "This is a dense forest, no matter what kind of weapons can be used, no one will sneak attack here." Although the city is comfortable, it is also prone to danger.
The more comfortable the place, the more it will make people lose their will, and the more it will make people relax their vigilance.
Things are safe in a safe place, dangerous in a dangerous place, people are different, people are in danger, dangerous places are safe, and soldiers are dangerous. ”
Dusk, another beautiful twilight.
Dusk stretches the streets for a long time.
The shouting and shouting on the street, the south and north tones on both sides of the street. Horses, cars, groceries and pedestrians on the street are endless.
The streets are alive like never before.
Does this vitality imply death?
