Chapter 27: Going to the Fire (II)
In the quiet night, Zhu Tianmen has been immersed in this dark night, there is no moon tonight, two figures shuttle in the shadows, and quietly sneak into Zhu Tianmen.
Quietly uncover the tiles on the roof, and you can vaguely see the neat desks and neat bookshelves inside. The two on the roof nodded
A rope slowly fell from the roof into the study, and the two of them quietly entered the study one after the other. The two made a gesture, then one searched the bookshelf behind, and the other looked at the desk in front, and it didn't take long to find a hidden compartment hidden under the desk, and quietly opened it to take a look.
Sure enough, it was full of some confidential letters, and with the help of the faint light, you could vaguely see the words "Changing Heaven". This may be what the two are looking for, and it is a bit surprising that it went smoothly. But it was a good thing to find it, so the two quietly left the study along the rope.
In the dark study, there seemed to be some movement on the wall on the side, and a piece of cloth fell, revealing Li Yin, who was hiding behind the cloth, with a grim smile
"The witch Zhou Baili will be escorted to the capital today, and she will be executed tomorrow, don't miss it," someone shouted on the street.
People were immersed in the joy of victory, only Wang Jin and Yan Wuchen were anxious
"Zhou Baili will be burned to death tomorrow, what should we do!" Wang Jin was a little annoyed
"Don't be impatient, let's wait for the news of Yu Jiao and Chen Bing" Yan Wuchen comforted the impatient Wang Jin, but Yan Wuchen himself was also a little worried, Yu Jiao and Chen Bing have not had any news after so long, and there is always some uneasiness in Yan Wuchen's heart
The drizzle of rain in the dim sky made people feel a layer of gloom in their hearts, but this did not stop people's enthusiasm.
Finally, a carriage with a cage gradually appeared at the gate of the city, and the people of Xuantianmen escorted Zhou Baili over, and a team of people walked on both sides of the carriage with hats to guard to prevent someone from hijacking the car.
Zhou Baili in the cage was covered with scars, his hair was scattered, his empty eyes and dull expression were as desperate as death, he was unclothed and hung in the cage, the heroic Zhou Baili had disappeared without a trace, and now this unrecognizable appearance is indeed as hateful as the devil
As soon as he entered the city gate, enthusiastic people swarmed around Zhou Baili's carriage, as if they were eager to correct Zhou Baili on the spot.
All kinds of vicious words filled the streets, rotten eggs and rotten leaves frantically smashed at Zhou Baili, Zhou Baili's empty eyes swept over those people with hateful faces at will, without any fluctuations. Everything is meaningless
Wang Jin and Yan Wuchen, dressed in black and wearing hats, watched Zhou Baili being pulled by a carriage towards the city.
Wang Jin clenched the handle of the knife in his hand several times, if Yan Wuchen hadn't stopped him, I was afraid that Wang Jin would have gone up and robbed Zhou Baili out.
"Now is not the time to make a move, if there is no news from Yujiao and Chen Bing tomorrow, then we will find a way to do it," Yan Wuchen said
It was also rainy in the south, Chen Bing and Yu Jiao were shuttling through the woods, and the many Zhu Tianmen killers behind them followed. Two groups of people chased quietly and nervously through the woods
Yu Jiao took out a few silver needles from behind her and threw them at the killers who chased behind her, and one by one the silver needles pierced the killers who chased after her, and this inconspicuous needle made several people fall to the ground with severe poison. But this did not affect this group of killers who chased after them at all, they did not pause in their footsteps, they still chased the two with all their strength, and even a few crossbow arrows flew towards the two, the two reacted quickly, dodged the crossbow arrows shot with a few flips, and continued to run forward.
Zhu Tianmen's reaction speed exceeded Yu Jiao and Chen Bing's expectations, that night when they secretly came out of Zhu Tianmen, they were surrounded by a group of people, fortunately, Chen Bing's various means emerged one after another, a few blind smoke screens, pulled Yu Jiao and ran, but this group of people chased after them, Chen Bing and Yu Jiao had already escaped all night, and a group of people behind them were still chasing after them as if they were tireless.
"Don't they know they're tired?" Chen Bing felt very surprised, the two of them were almost exhausted from running, while the people behind them still looked energetic.
But where did a small Zhu Tianmen come from so many killers with strong martial arts? The two of them never understood
The two teams continued to walk through the woods, Li Yin slowly walked in the woods with an umbrella, he was still quite confident in Zhu Tianmen's killer, this group of transformed dead soldiers, although this group of people did not have Hao Wu's amazing talent, and they could not be transformed like Hao Wu's terrifying, but a slight transformation could make the strength of this group of people catch up with the martial arts masters who had been trained hard for many years, and as a dead soldier, he was not afraid of his betrayal at all, and he would not feel sorry if he died
With this kind of skill, it can be used to dominate the martial arts, how big is Su Lan's ambition? Li Yin couldn't help but think, but the result made Li Yin feel a little chilling, stroking the black eye beside him, feeling the cold touch brought by the metal, and the jairus who was restrained by the mechanism was like a big dog to be stroked by Li Yin, but as long as the mechanism was opened, this fierce beast would destroy all this crazily,
"This time, I actually made Luo Kun agree to use Jairus," Li Yin said with a smile
The dead are dead after all, and they don't think about it at all, under the cover of Li Yin's smoke bombs, the two of them hid in a lush tree, and these dead soldiers didn't know it at all, and still chased ahead.
Chen Bing and Yu Jiao looked at the group of people in the distance, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that they had finally escaped.
"Ah Bing, Yu Jiao, long time no see" Behind the crowd, Li Yin looked at Chen Bing and Yu Jiao hiding in the tree with a smile
Chen Bing and Yu Jiao looked at the smiling Li Yin and instantly felt furious in their hearts, and before they had time to relax, they immediately began to run away again, although Li Yin was only one person, but the two people standing on the tree saw at a glance that there was a huge beast-like figure in the dark woods behind Li Yin, the two of them were extremely fast, and Li Yin couldn't see Chen Bing and Yu Jiao in a blink of an eye
"Why are you running so fast, but it doesn't matter, I'll find you soon," Li Yin muttered alone
The next day, the execution ground in the capital was full of people, all waiting for the moment of Zhou Baili's execution.
Yan Wuchen and Wang Jin sat upstairs near the execution ground, and when they opened the window, they could see the stake rack laid on the execution ground.
"Isn't there any news from Chen Bing and Yu Jiao?" asked Wang Jin
Yan Wuchen nodded, now Yan Wuchen's own heart is also messed up, he has an ominous premonition, Chen Bing and Yu Jiao are probably more than lucky.
At noon, the dying Zhou Baili was dragged out and hung on the stake, the executioner lit the torch, the flame slowly approached the firewood at Zhou Baili's feet, looking at all this, Wang Jin's left hand on the handle of the knife began to tremble, and the green tendons on his hand were exposed. If Yan Wuchen hadn't been holding Wang Jin's right hand hard, I'm afraid Wang Jin would have rushed up to save Zhou Baili.
Boom, because the firewood under Zhou Baili's feet was poured with oil, the flames ignited as soon as they touched, and a spectacular fire ignited in an instant, Yan Wuchen pushed Wang Jin out, and he pulled his knife forward, ready to save Zhou Baili
"You can't mess around, just let me do this kind of dangerous thing" This was the last thing Yan Wuchen whispered in Wang Jin's ear
Wang Jin, who fell to the ground, looked at Yan Wuchen dressed in white and rushed towards the execution ground without hesitation, his face was very complicated
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd on the other side, a one-armed young man with a hat seemed to rush towards Zhou Baili in the flames, the sudden situation made Yan Wuchen also stunned, and the officials on the scene ran over to stop the young man, but this strong young man directly lifted these officials away with a strange force, and also lifted the young man's hat
"Hao Wu!" Yan Wuchen stopped, looking at the figure that rushed forward without fear of death with a shocked expression
Hao Wu's appearance immediately caused panic among the people around him, the whole crowd was in a hurry, Hao Wu rushed to the execution ground, and directly crashed into the burning stake rack, instantly sparks splashed, and the wood with the flames flew into the crowd in all directions, and Zhou Baili in the middle was also hit by Hao Wu to the ground, but somehow, Hao Wu suddenly stopped in the flames and did not move.
Yan Wuchen and Wang Jin squeezed from the panicked crowd to the front of the execution ground with great effort, and rushed up to take a look
Zhou Baili fell to the side, but he had already stopped breathing, and Hao Wu, who rushed up, was burned black by the fire
