Chapter 234: Masked Assassin
Besides, Zhang Lingyu sent the timid girl home and left Maojia Village, looking for a broken temple to stay for one night before rushing to the capital the next day, rushing to the capital It was dark, and the city gate had been closed early, which was not a problem for Lingyu, sticking to the city wall and jumping up three or two vertically to the head of the city wall, down was even more relaxed, he walked to the head of the wall and jumped down and flew down, when about two feet from the ground, the two palms were slapped to the ground, and the body immediately slowed down and fell to the ground easily.
Lingyu wanted to do his best to rush back to the Xinglong Inn and Chang Yue'e to get together, and did not walk on the street, he performed light skills to fly on the room, and suddenly saw a dark shadow in front of him also running on the room, looking at the situation, he is also a master of light skills. Lingyu secretly said: "This person's martial arts are not weak, I don't know if he is a hero or an evildoer, no matter what, I have to keep up, if the hero needs help, help him, if he does evil, get rid of him." Thinking of this, he floated and followed, although the moon was high tonight, but there were dark clouds rolling, but Lingyu could see clearly, and soon approached the black shadow, it turned out that the black shadow was a young man, wearing a night suit, a black scarf and a mask, carrying a sword on his back kept running, and he ran for a while and stopped under the backyard wall of a large courtyard.
The masked man stood on the side of the wall and looked against the wall, and when he saw that there was no movement, he jumped on the wall, he stood on the top of the wall and looked in, and saw that there were many small courtyards in the courtyard, and he thought for a while and walked along the wall towards the head of the inner courtyard. Lingyu saw that the masked man was about to enter the compound, and hurriedly changed into night clothes to follow up, Lingyu went up the wall and looked inside, and pinched a sweat for the masked man in her heart.
It turned out that there were bright and dark stakes in the courtyard, but fortunately they didn't find the masked man on the wall, and Lingyu continued to follow and see that there were guards in each courtyard. He thought to himself, 'What the hell is this?' It's so tightly guarded. It's like the inner courtyard of a royal palace. He followed the masked man up to the roof, and when the masked man accidentally stepped on a piece of tile, there was a soft click, and the masked man was busy lying on the roof and did not dare to move. Lingyu hurriedly floated to the other roof, and saw that there were two guards in the courtyard who looked silently at the roof where the masked man was, and then whispered a few words and hid in a hidden place.
After a while, the black-clothed masked man saw that there was nothing unusual, so he got up and squatted down to look at the courtyard, and then fell into the courtyard with a slight leap, and was about to move towards the window. Suddenly, two people jumped out and robbed him, and one shouted: "The bold thief dares to break into the old mansion at night, how many heads do you have." The masked man raised his hand and drew his sword from behind his back to defend himself, and said coldly: "Your Pavilion Boss is a bullshit, and Uncle Ben is here to cut off his head and kick him as a ball." When the court heard this, he was furious and said, "You are an assassin and have taken your life." After saying that, he swung his knife and slashed over, and the two of them killed each other with swords, and the other courtyard rang the bronze luo.
Soon after the sound of Tongluo, five masters with swords rushed into the courtyard, and immediately surrounded the masked man in the middle, all watching the two of them fight. After a while, the courtyard was a little defeated by the masked man, and a middle-aged man surnamed Li Mingzhong who accompanied the sword was a commander. Seeing this, he said, "Zhang Biao and Zhou Wei, you two go up and take him down." The two young men with swords swung their swords and slew them, and the former guard took the opportunity to withdraw from the battle, and stepped aside to puff and puff. Zhang Biao and Zhou Wei killed the masked man together, the sword exchange was extremely fierce, although the masked man's martial arts were strong, but Zhang Biao and Zhou Wei's martial arts were not weak, not to mention that there were several masters watching from the side, although the masked man would not be defeated for a while, but it would be difficult to get out.
At this time, a descendant walked up to the middle-aged man with a sword and said, "Commander Li, the elder of the pavilion wants to catch him alive." Commander Li said confidently: "If you go back to the elder, I promise to give him a job." Then the next generation answered and hurried away.
Zhang Biao and Zhou Wei attacked the masked man back and forth, and their swordsmanship was pure and sophisticated, and after a while, they beat the masked man with only the ability to parry and not fight back. Li Zhong and Commander Li called for a substitution, and the two middle-aged swordsmen next to him immediately swung their swords to assassinate them, Zhang Biao and Zhou Wei were reluctant to withdraw from the battle circle, because they were about to win and make meritorious contributions, but they were very unhappy to take advantage of others.
The two middle-aged swordsmen saw that the masked man was at the end of his crossbow, so they stepped up their attacks and tried their best to take down the masked man for meritorious service, and the masked man was even more in danger, and he could be injured by the sword at any time. At the critical moment, the two middle-aged swordsmen suddenly stopped moving, the masked man stabbed forward and slashed, one of the two middle-aged swordsmen was stabbed into the chest and the sword bleeds, and the other was cut open and the lower abdomen was opened and the intestines flowed, and the two swordsmen immediately fell to the ground and saw that they were helpless. The masked man himself was also shocked, inexplicable, and suddenly felt that someone had been ordered blood, and before he could think about what was going on, he was held under the threat by a masked hunched man, and then jumped on the roof and leaped away. The masked man began to be frightened, and later he was relieved to see someone rescue him from the tiger's den, and his heart was grateful for the grace of saving his life, and he was amazed at the profundity of his martial arts.
Li Zhong and they saw that their people were about to win, and suddenly saw the two courtyards fall to the ground and die, and they were at a loss for what to do, and before they could react, they saw the masked man being rescued by a hunched man, and then they realized that the masked man still had a helper, and he was a special master, this reaction immediately went to the house to chase after him, Li Zhong and Zhang Biao, Zhou Wei just went to the roof, suddenly lit up a lightning, and in an instant it was as bright as day, only to see the hunchbacked man with the hunchback and the masked man had fallen out of the courtyard. There was a thunderstorm in the sky, Li Zhong and they performed light skills to chase from the wall to the outside of the courtyard, when they chased to the outside of the courtyard was a lightning thunder, riding the light of the lightning moment but could not see the trace of the hunchback and the masked man, at this time the sky fell sparse heavy raindrops, Li Zhong and Zhang Biao, Zhou Wei were thinking about chasing or not chasing, chasing and there was no goal, not chasing back and it was not easy to make a difference, was hesitating and came again a lightning thunder, followed by the heavy rain poured down, and the three of them became soup chickens in an instant.
Li Zhong immediately decided to go back to the house and said: "There is no goal to chase, let's go home." Zhang Biao and Zhou Wei also said that they had to go back to the house, and the three of them climbed over the wall and entered the house, and hurriedly came to Li Ge's old study to return to the courtesy, Li Ge Lao was sitting in the study waiting for news, and when he saw Li Zhong and them walking in listlessly like chickens in soup, they knew that things were not good, and asked: "Has the assassin been caught?" Commander Li stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry for the old man, the little one is very ashamed, and let the assassin run away." ’
Li Ge said: "You are all first-class masters in the rivers and lakes, how could you let an assassin escape, what is going on. Li Zhong said: "This is called a mountain outside the mountain, there are people outside the people, and there are capable people behind the capable people. Li Zhong then told the previous incident in detail, and Li Ge Lao was shocked after hearing this: "Who is this hunchback, and the martial arts are so strong that people can't guard against it." Li Zhongdao: "The little one doesn't know much about this hunchback man, I used to hear that there is a hunchback man nicknamed the flying camel in northern Sichuan, saying that this person is strong in martial arts and has excellent light skills. Li Ge said, "What kind of person is this hunchbacked man?" (To be continued......)
