In the dark shadow, 'Xu Zhongxian' emerged from the heavy lotus leaves, and couldn't help but greedily swallow a few mouthfuls of lotus leaf fragrance.

The inner breath has reached the level of his almost congenital fetal breath, although the warmth is quite comfortable, no different from being in the mother's body, but once he does it with people, the speed of turbidity precipitation is greatly increased, and the feeling of suffocation rises geometrically, and finally it is not as comfortable as external breathing.

As soon as he looked up, 'Xu Zhongxian' quietly went ashore, his true qi penetrated through his body, and his muscles trembled at high frequency......

In this way, the hair and clothes are already dry in three or five breaths, and there is no longer the slightest abnormality.

Shi Shiran walked towards the place where the smoke of the fire rose in mid-air.

After a while, he saw the guards and little eunuchs who came and went to carry water from a distance, and 'Xu Zhongxian' looked at the Jiushao Dingyin Sword in his hand, stuffed it into the gap of a rockery, and then walked towards the vicinity of the fire with a solemn face.

Lao Chen, who was urging the guards to extinguish the fire, saw the acquaintance of 'Xu Zhongxian' coming over, waved his hand casually and said hello, so he ignored him.

But 'Xu Zhongxian' looked at the situation of the Bailiang Hall in the fire field, and quietly came to Lao Chen's side.

Lao Chen glanced at him suspiciously, and was about to speak, but saw that 'Xu Zhongxian' gave him a solemn look, and took the lead in walking towards the dense garden on the other side.

With a sigh in his heart, Lao Chen faintly thought of the rumors in the past two days about the emperor being critically ill and the queen and the king of Linchuan each attracting ministers and generals, and couldn't help but murmur secretly: This 'Xu Zhongxian' has always belonged to the internal service system serving the emperor, and now the emperor's mansion will collapse, but I don't know that he is loyal to the queen and the crown prince Chen Chang. is still optimistic about Chen Qian, the king of Linchuan County?...... Most likely the latter. The crown prince Chen Chang is still detained in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. I'm afraid I won't have a chance to win the throne!

In the flash of thought, Lao Chen did not hesitate too much, and followed 'Xu Zhongxian' around behind the dense trees in the garden.

'Xu Zhongxian' seemed to look around cautiously, and after confirming that no one was peeping, he opened and closed his lips and gestured to Lao Chen as a 'King of Linchuan County'.

Lao Chen's heart was shocked, and he said secretly, sure enough......

See 'Xu Zhongxian' again, hooked his fingers. Lao Chen didn't think much about it, so he leaned his head over and made a gesture of listening.

'Xu Zhongxian' put his left hand to his mouth and leaned towards Lao Chen's ear.

And then...... As soon as Lao Chen's temples were numb, he was about to fall to the ground softly, but he was held by 'Xu Zhongxian' and began to disassemble his clothes and armor quickly......

"Tsk, you are barely a first-class master, why are you so vigilant?

Maybe this young master will leave you a mark. To set an example!"

The sound of the sword ......

Half a quarter of an hour later, 'Lao Chen' shook the armor of the senior generals of the Praetorian Guard. Putting on his helmet and pinching his throat, Shi Shiran walked outside the fire and stretched out his hand to beckon a subordinate such as a deputy general.

He instructed: "Ben will have something to do temporarily, leave for a while, you let the brothers work harder, put out the fire as soon as possible, and the big guy can go back to sleep!"

The adjutant general clenched his fists and said, "Obey!"

'Lao Chen' nodded, turned around and walked towards the north alone.

When passing by the rockery in Hualin Garden, where the Jiu Shao Dingyin Sword was hidden, 'Lao Chen' pulled out the sword from the scabbard hanging from his waist and threw it into the pond next to him, and inserted the Jiu Shao Dingyin Sword into the scabbard at his waist, and the original scabbard of the Jiu Shao Dingyin Sword was also thrown into the pond.

Only then did Shi Shiran walk towards the north palace wall.

Xie Xuannai was the governor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, commanding tens of thousands of Beifu troops, and it was impossible for the sword he wore with him to look frivolous and fancy.

Therefore, although the Jiushao Dingyin Sword is a first-class weapon in the world, the shape of the sword body is unique, and there are nine holes, but the hilt of the sword is the standard appearance of the army, which is decent, solemn and practical.

At this moment, the Jiushao Dingyin Sword was inserted into the scabbard that 'Lao Chen' usually matched, just looking at the hilt and appearance, it was no different from the sword before 'Lao Chen'.

When he arrived at the north city wall of the palace, 'Lao Chen' climbed directly from the stone steps to the head of the city, and saw the oncoming commander of the city's head guards, and without waiting for the other party to ask, he took the lead in a solemn voice: "The Bailiang Hall is on fire for no reason, and the queen will come to inspect the city defense just in case."

You must abide by your post and not slack off!"

The commander of the Praetorian Guard and several deputies who ruled the north wall looked at each other and wondered, "This ...... It's not in order, huh?"

'Lao Chen' leaned in front of him and whispered, "Hey...... It's not that the queen mother is not worried about the king of Linchuan County, and she is afraid that the king of the county will sneak into the palace......

After all, this is Your Majesty's family matter, let's just do it, don't worry, don't worry......"

The Praetorian Guard Commander and the others suddenly looked at each other, "Then Lao Chen, please ...... Please!"

"Hmm......" 'Lao Chen' held the hilt of his sword, walked with a dragon and a tiger step, and slowly inspected the city guards along the wall, constantly looking left and right, but it also looked like it.

After a long sound, I felt that I was far away from those commanders, and when I arrived at a remote city wall, a sly smile appeared on the corner of Lao Chen's mouth, and he was unlucky with a dark and mysterious innate true qi, his hands behind his back, and his fingertips were quietly aimed at the guards standing guard in the female walls on both sides......

At the same time, he raised his voice and scolded: "Cheer up the general, if there is a leak, everyone will be engaged in military law!"

The sound of the shouting order, which seemed to be like a fox and a fake tiger, spread far away, implying a strange rhythm, which made the guards who heard it unconsciously nervous, and their vigilance dropped, and even covered the subtle sneer of the strength breaking through the air.

Wherever 'Lao Chen' passed, the guards who were already fighting straight were even more motionless, and their eyes didn't roll......

However, 'Lao Chen' was still meticulous in his words: "Hmm...... Don't think Ben is joking, and don't think Ben doesn't know how to be lazy in your mind!

Let me tell you, Ben will also fight step by step from the pawn guarding the city wall to today's position, from stealing and playing tricks, to moving forward bravely, and then it is a hundred battles on the battlefield, and nine deaths and life ......"

A series of acupuncture points of dozens of guards in the air, and it felt almost over, and 'Lao Chen' ended his successful motivational speech that was foaming at the mouth, turned around and walked back a few feet, and jumped out of the wall from the side of a frozen janissary guard.

Allowing his body to fall rapidly for nearly ten zhang, and getting out of the range of the firelight on the wall, 'Lao Chen' suddenly raised his true qi, and his body suddenly became lighter, and he swayed twice like a feather in the wind.

He hurriedly used his true qi, reached out to absorb the city wall, and dived towards the bottom of the city wall at a uniform speed with a kung fu similar to 'gecko swimming on the wall'......

Everything seems to be unaware!

Seeing that he was about to reach the foot of the wall, 'Lao Chen''s face changed, and his body flipped, as if he was urgently avoiding something.

Silently, where he had just been, there was an extra piece of cow hair steel needle on the bricks of the city wall, and the tail of the needle trembling in the night wind shimmered with a strange blue color in the moonlight.

In the subtle spiritual sense, 'Lao Chen' clearly sensed that except for the woman lurking below who attacked him with a steel needle, there were four first-class masters from the rest of the parties who were hurrying over, as if they were going to besiege him at the foot of the city wall.

These people have been waiting for a long time!

Thinking on his toes, he also knew whose dogs these people were......

With a light snort, 'Lao Chen' kicked on the city wall, and his body shot horizontally like an arrow, as if he was about to flee from six or seven feet above the lurking woman. If he is allowed to get out of the encirclement like this and run into the street houses, these people may not even be able to touch the tail of his shirt!

Sure enough, the woman first sent out a puff of steel needles, enveloping his volley figure, and then followed by a sword of lightning, clearly trying to hold him tightly.

"Groaning ......"

In the clear sound of the dragon roaring and the tiger's roar, the Jiu Shao Dingyin Sword came out of its sheath like lightning, and the black and fine energy filled his body in an instant, and dozens of steel needles attacked, but they disappeared like raindrops into a lake.

A middle-aged woman dressed in a female general's suit had already flown towards him, but she was suddenly blocked by the infinite black and fine energy, and lost his exact position.

In the next moment, the black and fine energy swept through the air like a vortex, heading towards the middle-aged woman under the hood.

It was obviously fifteen full moon and clear radiance, but the middle-aged woman seemed to be in a bottomless abyss, with infinite darkness and gloom in front of her eyes, and silence in her ears.

Even though she tried her best to urge the sword qi to resist, she still felt that her breathing stopped, and her whole body was like a knife.

However, after all, the woman has experienced a hundred battles, and at this critical juncture, she forcibly suppressed her heart and was shocked, poured all her strength into the long sword in her hand, and stabbed diagonally towards the direction where 'Lao Chen' was originally located.

It was expected that 'Lao Chen' was in mid-air, and there was nowhere to change his position!

However, as soon as her blade stabbed halfway, she felt the black and fine energy that permeated her surroundings twist and spin wildly, and suddenly gave birth to a thousand strange forces, some of which pulled her forward, some of which pressed straight down, and a few horizontal and rotating forces......

For a moment, she seemed to be caught in the whirlpool of the turbulent sea, and it was difficult for her to control her body independently, and the sword she stabbed out with all her strength did not know where it went!

The blood faded in an instant, and the woman's eyes, which had long since lost her vision, could no longer help but show a look of panic and despair......

Before the tip of the black sword arrived, the sharp and gloomy sword qi had already easily broken through the woman's protective true qi, penetrating the depths of her brain through the center of the woman's eyebrows.

Countless black and fine energy dissipated in an instant, and the figure of 'Lao Chen' suddenly appeared, a volley flipped, and a foot kicked on the woman's forehead, and with the help of strength, it rose a few feet again, and the big bird swept through the space of more than ten zhang, falling to the roof of the house next to the street.

The woman's corpse was like a broken sandbag, roaring and falling through the air at a faster speed than when she jumped up, and her clothes were hunting......

The two of them exchanged a volley move, each with its own changes, but in less than two breaths, the winner and the winner were already separated, which was really unexpected by the other four masters who were hurrying over.

"Second Sister ......"

More than thirty zhang away, a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old man who rushed to the front screamed with hatred, never felt that the distance that could be easily swept by three or four breaths on weekdays was so long at this moment, like a moat!

"Squeak...... Smack!"

'Lao Chen' fell on the roof of the house, felt that a tile was broken under his feet, and couldn't help but sigh secretly: I have fallen a lot of light skills, I have lost my level, and I will go back and step up my hard practice......

Immediately drifted down the street without looking back, and disappeared without a trace. (To be continued.) )
