Chapter 18: Caught the Wrong Person?
Great Chu Secret Guard, this is a term that few people know.
It was only established for twenty-seven years, and there was no such mysterious organization in Chu before Emperor Xiang Liang of the Yuan Wu Emperor ascended the throne.
After Xiang Liang ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to lead the army to repel the invading Xiongnu and establish his authority. But few people know that after he returned to Kyoto, he secretly set up a "secret guard". The members of the secret guard are basically composed of descendants of famous families and masters drawn from the army. The lethality of such a group of people can be imagined.
As its name reveals, this organization has been in the dark since the day it was born. There are generally two kinds of enemies of the Dark Guard - lawless gangsters and masters of enemy infiltration. These people are basically armed with martial arts, and it is difficult for ordinary people to solve them. At this time, the secret guard needs to come out.
In the past twenty years, the Dark Guard has unconsciously established a great reputation, which has been accumulated by killing again and again.
In the five years that Xiaohuan and Miss lurked in Da Chu together, they were almost caught by the Secret Guard several times, but thanks to Miss's resourcefulness, the two of them did not fall into the hands of the Secret Guard. This experience also left a psychological shadow on the dark guard.
Miss Yue'er is right, if you want to return to the Huns without being discovered by the secret guards, you should really plan carefully and think carefully before acting.
............
A few days ago, a dozen strangers suddenly lived in a remote courtyard in the city of Daijun, and these people did not communicate with the people around them, going in and out all day long, not knowing what they were doing for a living.
This made the surrounding neighbors a little strange, but these people looked very difficult to mess with, and they didn't make any trouble for the time being, so they couldn't sue the official, so they could only close the door and go out as little as possible, hoping that nothing would happen.
Because the original owner went out a few years ago and never came back, this yard and room have not been cleaned for a long time, so the environment is quite poor. But these people who live there don't care about that.
After nightfall, the five people who had gone out during the day returned one after another, and thirteen people sat down together and began to exchange information on each other.
A thin man took out a piece of paper from his arms and said, "I found the intelligence person in charge of the division who stayed in Daijun City today, and he gave me a copy of the suspicious masters who have appeared in Daijun City in the past three years. I shortlisted three people out of it, and the target could be one of them......"
The list was circulated in everyone's hands, and only three people's names were written on it:
Hu Jingyi, Du Yuankui and Dai Yue'er.
After making sure that everyone remembered the three names, the first person asked the other four people for the news they had brought back. After a comprehensive discussion, he gave a direct order: all three people were arrested first, and then carefully interrogated.
Tomorrow morning, let's get moving.
............
Speaking of the young masters who have emerged in Daijun in recent years, Hu Jingyi is definitely the one that cannot be ignored. No one knows her teacher's inheritance, she was a person when she first appeared in the eyes of everyone, in her early twenties, not tall, but holding a heavy giant axe in her hand, this picture is really a bit of a disobedience, many people secretly laughed at her little girl does not know the height of the sky, and a person dares to break into the rivers and lakes.
But in less than a month, no one dared to laugh at her. Because Hu Jingyi was alone, with her own amazing axe technique, she knocked over several famous young heroes in the city to the ground, and she was in the limelight for a while. But the strange thing is that after this, Hu Jingyi fell silent and rarely showed up.
Early in the morning, Hu Jingyi got up early to wash rice and cook.
She bought a small courtyard in the city, and she did all the laundry and cooking by herself on weekdays.
She is an orphan, she has been wandering in this world alone for as long as she can remember, and she has basically endured all the hardships she can endure. If it were someone else, it might have been unbearable for a long time. But she survived strongly, although she didn't know how long she would live.
This miserable life lasted until she was ten years old, and in the winter of that year she hid alone in a ruined temple on the outskirts of the city, wearing only a ripped linen robe and shivering in the cold wind. Just when her frozen consciousness began to blur, thinking that she was about to die, a strange middle-aged man walked in from outside.
He rescued the dying Hu Jingyi and left the poor little girl by his side, playing the dual role of father and master until she grew up. It was also the happiest time in Hu Jingyi's memory.
Hu Jingyi woke up from the memories that she had often fallen into since her father's death.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the gate of the courtyard, Hu Jingyi walked over and opened it, there were three people standing outside the door, their faces were cold and hard, and they walked straight in regardless of whether she agreed or not.
Hu Jingyi's face changed, "Who are you?"
No one answered her words, but one of the three of them was a man with a thick ring knife and a square face who looked at her and asked, "Are you Hu Jingyi?"
"Yes, I'm Hu Jingyi. "The other party's attitude is so strong and domineering, obviously with bad intentions. Her muscles tensed all over her body, ready to strike at any moment.
All three of them saw her guard, but they didn't pay any attention to it. Although Hu Jingyi's cultivation is good, in the eyes of several of them, she is still too tender.
The square-faced man pulled out a pitch-black token from his bosom, a sign unique to the Dark Guard. He was about to say something, but who knew that Hu Jingyi's face immediately changed after seeing this token, and she picked up a giant axe in the corner and swept towards the three of them. The heavy axe was like a fluttering straw in Hu Jingyi's hands, and the speed of this axe was extremely fast, and the strength was enough to cut through three heavy iron armors.
Seeing that this suspected target suddenly made a move, the three of them shouted angrily at the same time: "What a gut!"
The four of them fought together like this, and in the blink of an eye, the courtyard was in shambles.
Hu Jingyi's martial arts can be compared to one of the three at best, but the other party is three people together, so she quickly falls behind. A giant axe was used by her as a shield, and she had no strength to counterattack, and she was embarrassed. If it weren't for the fact that the other party didn't know why she didn't make a dead move, she might have died.
Five minutes later, Hu Jingyi's whole body was tied with a rope, the acupoints were also restrained, and the true qi of her body was locked in the dantian. Before she unravels it, she can only be an ordinary person.
This kind of acupoint method, she once heard her "father" talk about it, this is the unique learning of Sun Ying, the soul-bound hand on the rivers and lakes. Hu Jingyi was a little desperate, and at the same time more unwilling, she didn't understand why she was living a good life alone, and suddenly attracted a "notorious" secret guard on the rivers and lakes.
On the other side of the courtyard, after completely subduing Hu Jingyi, the three secret guards gathered together, and their brows were all furrowed. Their faces were a little hesitant, as if they were ...... , caught the wrong person?
"It's a little wrong, it's too smooth, the target can't be caught so easily. "Although saying this is a bit of a morale boost for the enemy and destroy their own prestige, but after many failures, they have long understood how difficult the goal is, and they will not overestimate their own ability.
The square-faced man rubbed his face with his hand, and said helplessly: "It's really wrong, I know this girl's axe technique, and her master should be the great man of the rivers and lakes more than ten years ago - Ghost Axe Yueshan." ”
The other two suddenly realized. Indeed, there are not many people in the rivers and lakes who use axes as weapons, and even fewer who are famous, and Yue Shan is one of them. His ghost axe was also a must-have in the rivers and lakes more than ten years ago. If it weren't for Yue Shan's disappearance for many years, they should have remembered it at first sight. It's just that I didn't expect that after Yue Shan disappeared for so many years, he would teach such an outstanding apprentice.
caught the wrong person, and the three of them were a little embarrassed, but now that the action is important, Hu Jingyi can only wronged her for a while, and then let her go after everything is over.
So, the three of them hid Hu Jingyi in a safe place, and then rushed to the other two targets.
Their group's actions have failed, and they only hope that the other two groups will gain something.
