In summer, after the rain, the sun rushed out of the dark clouds, and finally revealed the whole face, at this time the sun is straight, but not dull, monotonous, they shuttle between the branches, weaving into a golden silk, the water droplets after the rain into a string of golden pearls. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ximen Qing hung a long sword on his waist, rode a white crane horse, and walked slowly with the rare coolness in summer and the beautiful sunshine after the rain. This horse was bought by Ximen Qinghua with a lot of money, and it is recorded in the "Collected Notes" that the horse that Cao Hong and Wei Wu rode was called the White Crane; ”

Returned to Hangzhou to stay for a few days, accompanied by his sister Yueting, and finally was really bored, Ximenqing continued to go north, passing through Yingzhou (now Fuyang, Anhui) and Yingchang Mansion (now Xuchang, Henan), and by the way, he sneaked into several wealthy merchants' mansions and started his old business.

Within a few days, the government offices in these two places were also busy, but there were no clues, and all the streets and alleys in the city were talking about the great achievements of the 'Western God of Wealth'.

Stepping into Bianliang City again, the feeling is completely different. A few months ago, it was still spring, and it was full of spring, everything was recovering, buds were about to bloom, thousands of trees were competing for spring, and flowers and branches were spreading...... A thriving one. Now it is indeed summer, and it is already the sun is blazing, the trees are shady, the cicadas are bursting, and the lotus leaves are full of ponds...... It's really hot.

I still came to Jiuxian Pavilion, and there was still no 'beauty drunk' to buy, so I still had to enter the palace at night~

Ximenqing shook his head and was speechless, but he was still looking forward to drinking wine with Chaoxu again, and by the way, he would try another game with Sima Bai, this time Ximenqing was confident that he would win him with dignity!

......

At night, Ximenqing sneaked into the palace for the third time, entered the wine cellar with a familiar car, took two jars of the best 'beauty drunk', and went in the direction of the imperial garden. I hope that Chaoxu and Sima Bai will still drink in the pavilion as before, Ximenqing thought to himself.

Disappointingly, the pavilion was empty and deserted, Ximenqing found a stone bench to sit down, patted open the mud seal, lifted the wine jar, and poured it directly into his mouth. The wine is mellow and delicious, and Ximenqing, who has not tasted such a fine wine for more than two months, finally quenched his hunger.

After waiting for half an hour, none of Chaoxu and Sima Bai came, and even the forbidden soldiers who patrolled every night were lazy and did not come to the imperial garden to inspect once.

After drinking two jars of wine, Ximen Qing was extremely bored and decided to leave.

Passing near the Daqing Palace, I suddenly felt something abnormal, and I fell on a big tree, hidden in the leaves. Soon, Ximenqing saw that in the dark place of Daqing Palace, there were many figures dressed in black, and there were at least twelve people in a few counts.

Who are they? Why did they sneak into the palace late at night? Ximen Qing was puzzled in his heart, he held his breath, secretly observed the every move of those people, and was surprised in his heart, these people had all entered the ranks of martial arts masters, and a few of them had a long breath, obviously second-rate masters. They don't have a mediocre person!

At this time, a group of forbidden soldiers came over, and they were soldiers inspecting the Daqing Palace. Those men in black are well-acted, and they all hide their bodies in the shadows of various attics and corridors. When the soldiers approached, they poured out of the nest, silently, and in an instant, all the twenty soldiers on patrol fell, and none of them cried out for help, and they did not see the faces of each other clearly, so they hated Jiuquan.

Ximenqing's chest was full of anger. What kind of forces are the subordinates who dare to trespass into the palace and commit murder, and these people must be allowed to come and go! How dare they deceive me that there is no one in the Great Song Dynasty?

However, Ximenqing also knows that there are many people on the other side, and he is afraid that he is not the opponent of these people, so he can't act rashly! I don't know how Sima Bai, the commander of the forbidden army, actually let so many assassins sneak into the palace, Ximenqing scolded Sima Bai fiercely in his heart.

And the black-clothed people below didn't find Ximenqing hiding in the tree not far away, they took off the forbidden army armor, changed it on themselves, and then dragged the twenty soldiers away to clean up the scene. In a few breaths, the place was back to normal, and if it weren't for Ximenqing seeing what they had done, he wouldn't have suspected that an assassin would have infiltrated the palace.

The men in black gathered for a moment's discussion, and in small groups, they disappeared into the shadows again. Ximen Qing couldn't help but feel a little anxious, he only knew Chaoxu and Sima Bai in the palace, but the walls of the palace were high and deep, and there was no way to summon each other when he left last time, where to find them?

In the end, Ximen Qingyi gritted his teeth, he could only rely on himself, if he started to move for a while, the sound would definitely be not small, and he would definitely be able to attract all the masters in the palace, Sima Bai was the peak of second-rate masters, and none of the following black-clothed people would be his opponents.

Ximenqing slowly descended from the big tree, without making a sound, and swept towards the rear of the enemy with light skills, where there were only three black-clothed men guarding, and he had just been promoted to a third-rate master, so it was easier to solve.

Slowly touched the high wall behind the person at the back, held his breath, gathered his internal force in his palms, and slowly approached. The man in black didn't notice that someone was approaching behind him, and he was still looking coldly ahead, who would have thought that there would be a person in the martial arts lying on the back wall?

Ximenqing suddenly flew down, only to hear a soft 'click', which broke the man's neck. In the past few months, the 'Tree of Soul' has given Ximenqing ten kinds of martial arts and talismans, but most of them are ordinary martial arts, and there are very few peerless martial arts.

Twisting people's necks is the usual trick of Yue Lao San in Tianlong, Ximen Qing performed this trick for the first time today, and the man in black didn't resist and died.

The two men in black in front couldn't help but cast puzzled glances when they heard the sound behind them, but when they saw that the companion who was guarding the shadow under the wall behind them was still standing there, and raised his right hand to apologize to them, there was nothing unusual.

You can't bring newcomers to participate in future tasks, and the first two people thought of it at the same time.

Ximen Qing emerged from behind the dead man, and the action of raising his hand just now was actually done by him, because it was in the shadows, far away, and the two people in front of him did not see clearly.

Taking advantage of the moment when the two black-clothed men in front of him turned around to observe the front, Ximenqing started and quickly flew towards the black-clothed man on the left, like a black smoke, silent. With a 'click', Ximen Qing repeated his old trick and broke his neck.

At this time, the man in black on the right side heard the voice again, and his suspicion rose, and he looked to the left, but saw three short arrows constantly magnifying in front of his eyes, and before he could react, he was hit by an arrow on his forehead, face, and neck, and his eyes were black, and he fell forward.
