Chapter 16: The Tomb of the Underground Kings (1)

The guard was played by Chu Menglin, when Hu Wei escaped from the inn before, she also followed Li Yijie in hot pursuit, and saw with her own eyes the whole process of the two reaching a deal in the alley. Until he saw that Li Yijie was lured down the well by Hu Wei's rhetoric, and he didn't come up after a long time, he thought that this time it was more than lucky, so he had the courage to go to the well to take a look.

There was no movement at the bottom, and he didn't dare to go down the well to investigate, so he could only wander around the streets, trying his luck and trying to sneak into the palace. Coincidentally, he met the guards of the Yinxue Palace, and secretly followed him through the crowd. When I arrived at the prince's mansion, I only saw a few sparse guards in front of the gate, all of whom looked sluggish and lazy. Chu Menglin threw a few stones at random, successfully attracting their attention, and actually slipped into the palace for her.

Standing in the empty courtyard, he knew that he had stolen the Afterimage Sword, made this reflexive apostasy, completely broke with his father, and was already homeless. There is no clear idea of where to go from here. Then I thought, "It's boring left and right, so it's better to pretend to be a guard to play." "Stun a lone guard with a palm around the corner, drag him to the rockery and hide it, take off his shirt and put it on. When she walked in the palace again, there was no need to sneak around, and no one would come to look at her more.

When I arrived at a building and its magnificent house, I heard a voice in the middle of the room and said lightly: "This king knows, send an order to go out, and when I finish changing clothes, I will go with you to see my mother." Originally, Chu Menglin wouldn't have listened to it much, but she was very familiar with this voice, it was the voice of her sweetheart Duoduo who she thought about every day. At this moment, when I heard it helplessly, my heart was tantamount to a heavy blow of gongs and drums, and I couldn't help but feel a burst of pantothenic acid.

After many days, it is really a little unbelievable, or I dare not believe it, I am afraid that all this is just a phantom of my own fiction. At that moment, he turned around and hid behind a pillar, trying his best to suppress his breathing. He didn't wait long before he saw Duoduo striding out of the hall, followed by a few scattered guards. Seeing his side face for only a moment, she immediately turned her back, and even this glance made her burst into tears, and she didn't have time to think about it, and immediately walked up and followed behind the group of guards.

On the road, I clearly felt a heart pounding and shaking, so violent that I almost wanted to jump out of my chest. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, he always buried his head deep along the way, occasionally raised his eyes, and looked at him in a daze, obsessed, and tears filled his eyes. I don't know when I stepped into the Yinxue Palace, because I saw that the hall was spacious and tidy, and the decoration was gorgeous, Shen Shiyun was in the main position, wearing gold and silver, and wearing it was particularly noble, and he actually had the demeanor of a mother's honor in the world. Chu Menglin's heart was sour and annoyed, and she just thought: "In the Regent's Mansion that day, if it weren't for my kindness, I would have dismantled you into eight pieces, how could I have today?"

Before she could think about it, she saw Shen Shiyun take out the drawings and ask Duoduo for details. That is exactly the goal she sought when she infiltrated the Heroes Conference this time, and she was looking for it all her life, and when she got this opportunity, she stared and thought intently, and her other ears were not idle. After a while, the topic turned to the tears of the broken soul, and then to himself, and Duoduo calmly said that he only regarded her as a plaything, and all the feelings he showed were nothing more than a joke. Suddenly, like a scorching thunder exploding in the clear sky, the truth that had killed her head and tried her best to deny it for several days was suddenly displayed in front of her so really, peeling off the glossy and gorgeous shell, and the unreserved essence was such ugliness. It's hard to imagine, and there is no moment of despair that can be compared to this.

But although she was full of resentment, she was always tender to Duoduo, Shen Shiyun gloated on the side, and praised this behavior, Chu Menglin immediately transferred her hatred and recognized Shen Shiyun as the culprit. Her style is already reckless, acting according to her own likes and dislikes, she drew her sword and stabbed Shen Shiyun on the spot, determined to kill her to vent her anger, and also made her pay the price for this nonsense.

Hu Wei and Duoduo had no intention of interfering, and quickly restrained her easily, seeing that her hand was imminent, Li Yijie appeared halfway. At this time, Chu Menglin was really mixed when they reunited. The good thing is that Li Yijie didn't kill Hu Wei, but the worry is that he has seen him many times recently, although the Demon Sect Kung Fu is a beginner, but it is making rapid progress, according to today, ten of them are not his opponents. Sure enough, after receiving the first palm, the internal breath was reversed, the true qi flowed backwards, and the blood in the mouth spurted wildly. Knowing that it would be difficult to kill people again today, and once risked his life, he ended up with nothing, and he was unwilling to do anything after all, so he took advantage of Li Yijie's heart of "throwing a rat bogey", deliberately threw a large number of hidden weapons at Shen Shiyun first, took the opportunity to grab the drawings, crumpled them in the palm of his hand, and ran away quickly outside the palace. Li Yijie really stumbled and didn't come to catch up.

After escaping for a long time, the initial spirit gradually dissipated, knowing that this method could only save the whole time, just because she had suffered serious internal injuries earlier, and she ran all the way up, and her internal organs were shocked, as if she wanted to explode. I couldn't support it anymore, so I had to stop my steps, and at the same time, I couldn't breathe, took a few breaths, and slowly unfolded the drawings. At first glance, those dense patterns disturbed her, as if small tadpoles were floating messily in front of her.

Before, in the Yinxue Palace, she thought hard, and finally had a clue, and was instantly stunned by Duoduo's words, and her inspiration immediately dissipated without a trace, and more importantly, now that she had the drawings in hand, she felt that she had no coveting it at all. In the past, she racked her brains to compete with Jiang Yanchen, in order to gain her father's favor, but now this praise is no longer hopeful, even if she completes the task, it is useless.

Whenever there is a strong desire in the heart, this prayer will be derived into a belief that sustains people in the face of hardships and dangers, and no matter how hard they try, their hearts are always sweet. If there is an occasional change in the state of mind, and suddenly you feel that everything is meaningless, and you completely lose your goal, the emptiness in your heart at this time is the real discouragement. At the same time, internal injuries are also related to mentality, Chu Menglin has such a desperate mood, and there is really no last glimmer of life, the real qi is violently collided, as if the lungs have also turned over, the throat is sweet, and a large mouthful of blood spurts out uncontrollably, in the direction at that time, there is no trace of all the drawings splashed, and a "hiss" sounded at the moment, like the sound of burning paper, the paper was wet, and the graphics turned into a large cloud of ink stains. Chu Menglin was busy wiping her sleeves, but she didn't think that the more she wiped it, the worse it would be, and in the end, the drawings were like a sweater taking off the thread.

Chu Menglin was flustered for the first time, and then she became angry again after a change of thought, and said in her heart: "It's really providence! Why did you leave this drawing? Do you want to give that negative Hendeng disciple a prominent name? Or let Jiang Yanchen get it, so that he can give it to his father to ask for merit and reward? I don't know the secrets in the world, then no one should want to know, it is called fair!" She was selfish by nature, and she only took this speculation for granted, and she couldn't help but feel complacent. Just as he was about to throw away the invalid drawings, he suddenly heard a broken shout: "Here it is!

A group of guards armed with sharp knives and spears rushed quickly, rushed to the front, and Fang all stopped in unison, forming a confrontation with her in a triangular stacking momentum. Chu Menglin slowly took the drawings into her arms, squinted her eyes, put on a look of arrogance and disdain, and glanced at everyone. One of the guards was the first to stand and look like a leader, and shouted, "Boy, this is for us to be caught! Tell me quickly! Who are you ordered to dare to come and assassinate Niangniang?"

Chu Menglin sneered: "Shen Shiyun is alive and hinders my eyes, I will kill her." I am willing, who can control me?" The leader said angrily: "You are still not being honest! You are just a guard, if you don't have the support of your master, how dare you do such a great rebellious act? ”

Chu Menglin said in her heart: "You are playing me for fun, I might as well come to ruin your reputation, it is also for fun." He raised his head and said, "That's right, I'm not a guard! I'm Prince Yu's man, and I'm a killer hired by him for a lot of money." Didn't you see that I was the one who followed him into the palace?" The leader said angrily: "Nonsense, the prince is a relative of the emperor, and he is a family with his mother, why did he assassinate him?"

Chu Menglin said: "In order to seize power and seize power! You think, at the beginning of the emperor's accession to the throne, he had no experience at all, and he needed the support of the regent's brothers to handle government affairs, so it can be said that they are veritable uncrowned kings." Now Shen Shiyun wants to intervene and interfere with the court, the emperor is stunned by her, trusts her very much, and hands over more and more power to her...... Shen Shiyun is a Han woman after all, if she uses the power in her hands to secretly turn things around, so that the country changes hands, and she is defeated in the hands of such a stinky girl, who will be willing? Only by cutting her first and then getting rid of her, and then slowly persuading the emperor, he can't kill all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty for the sake of a concubine? This is a business that makes sure that there is no loss, and smart people have to do it. Do you say?"

Another guard shouted: "Nonsense, the prince has never admitted a word, and when he sees his mother on weekdays, he is also respectful and abides by his duties as a courtier!" Chu Menglin listened to his stupid question, and said loudly: "Yes, if you have committed such a big crime, it is too late to cover it up, who will be in a hurry to admit it? For example, if you want to murder your boss, do you want to remind him first, 'Hey, I'm going to kill you, you quickly wash your neck and stretch it out'? The more you pretend to be sincere and fearful on the surface, the more vicious your heart is. Is there such a thing?"

The guard said to the leader in fear: "Big ...... My lord, I dare not ...... There is no such intention of being humble!" Chu Menglin raised her chin and shrugged her shoulders at him, with a look of "I was right". Instead, he pretended to be helpless and sighed: "You keep forcing me to confess, but now I have confessed, but you don't believe me, who do you want me to confess? A slave is not a puppet, and it is not uncommon for a traitor to seek glory." ”

Chu Menglin's set of rhetoric was crookedly said in the leader's heart. secretly thought: "She also has some truth in her analysis, for the sake of the throne, father, son and brother can still turn against each other." But this is a serious crime with a wide range of implications, and once it is shaken out, everyone will suffer with it. Even if the prince is at fault, the slave has to try to cover it up for him. As soon as he thought of this, he immediately pressed the hilt with his palm.

When Chu Menglin saw his fierce eyes, of course she guessed what he meant, and sneered: "I said, you people are really stupid! I don't think about it, if you are better than me, the prince should have found someone among you to assassinate you, so why do you have to go near and far and spend a lot of money to hire me?"

The leader thought that since she had the courage to enter the palace to assassinate, she must have some skills, and he was not completely sure whether he could take her down. Another guard had sharp eyes and said in a low voice: "My lord, no matter how strong this kid is, there are only a lot of enemies, let's give him a group to attack him." And he was stained with blood on the front of his clothes, and he was obviously injured a lot. The leader looked at it carefully, and secretly rejoiced. He nodded and said, "Boy, when it comes to fighting alone, we are not your opponents, but you are alone, don't blame us for bullying more and less." To catch the assassins, you don't need to pay attention to any morality. ”
