Chapter Seventy-Six: An Enemy Comes to Chang'an
Outside the White Tiger Gate, a group of noisy soldiers rode on the official road and walked towards the city gate. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The group scolded and scolded, all of them looked angry and disgraced, and the horses looked quite depressed.
"This Xiao Rong is too unscrupulous!
"Yes, the emperor appointed us to escort them, they dare to fight, let's go sue him. ”
"Forget it......"
As he spoke, a foot stretched out from the side of the road, stepped on the official road, and stopped in front of the noisy soldiers.
There was a cloth boot on his foot, which looked very old and patched, and the cloth boots were gray, stained with dust and red spots, but the position of the patch was clean and eye-catching.
With this foot, a person stood in the center of the official road, in the center.
This person, if you don't look at his face and hands, you will think that he is a simple old peasant, medium height, slightly hunched on his back, as if he has been bent over by the years.
But his face was cold and indifferent, his nose was pointed, and his eyes swept over the forbidden army, sharp as a wolf.
The nails of his hands and ten fingers were blood-red, not very long, but sharp and slightly curved.
Ever since the man's feet were on the official road, the horses had been kicking the ground with their hooves, restless and restless.
The horsemen could clearly feel the fear of the horses.
In the face of such a person, even a fool smells of danger.
The man's eyes swept over the crowd and suddenly sharpened without warning.
"Enemy situation!~" As the leader shouted out the enemy word, a group of forbidden cavalry drew their swords out of their sheaths, reacted quickly, and put on a posture to meet the battle.
The person in front of him is not simple, he has a strong murderous aura, and what the soldiers of the forbidden army practice is the trick of fighting and killing arrays on the battlefield after all, and it is not of much use in the face of such a master.
Fortunately, this place is only less than a mile away from the White Tiger Gate, and the soldiers who heard the warning can rush to the aid here as quickly as possible, and find the six gates and Ouchi guards who specialize in dealing with the masters.
It's a pity that the love word of the enemy can no longer be spoken.
The leader opened his mouth and kept trying, but unfortunately the love word was stuck in his throat and couldn't come out, replaced by a hissing cold air.
Blood, coming out of his throat like a spring, brought up strings of bubbles.
The look in his eyes before death was heavy despair.
Behind him, there were fifty pairs of equally desperate and helpless eyes.
The entire team of forbidden cavalry couldn't figure out why the other party was so fast, and they couldn't figure out why the other party wanted to kill the killer as soon as they met without injustice or hatred, and they all fell off their horses and closed their eyes in such a puzzle.
There was a bright red scratch on the neck of the corpse, and the flesh was open and parted to both sides.
The sword fell to the ground, and the man who was standing in the middle of the official road just now stood behind the cavalrymen, his hands hanging down relaxedly, and blood slowly dripping from his bright red nails.
The horses neighed in confusion and fled in all directions, but the man did not seem to have any intention of pursuing, but only crouched down and looked carefully at the neck of one corpse, and then at the other with the same meticulous attention.
It looks like you're checking if you've missed a beat, and it's like you're admiring a work.
Some of the horses scattered and fled into the wilderness from the side of the official road, some galloped wildly in the direction of Chang'an City, and some ran into the distance along the official road.
It is said that old horses know their way, but this time the horses were so frightened that they lost their direction one by one.
The horses running along the official road kept running on the official road, running out of a cloud of smoke and dust, until two people appeared at the end of the official road.
Two people who walk at a speed not inferior to a galloping horse.
"Senior brother, what is going on with those horses?" asked curiously, as he was running, Feng Yiyang pointed forward with his hand and asked curiously.
In fact, there was no need for him to point it out, Xiao Rong had already noticed it, and he said with a serious face: "These are the horses of the forbidden army guards just now." ”
"Their horses?" Feng Yiyang frowned, and took a step forward, within a radius of three zhang, instantly filled with Feng Yiyang's sharp and incomparable might.
The five or six horses ran into the wind's might, and the horses neighed and raised their front hooves sharply, and stopped in front of the wind.
Xiao Rong took the opportunity to step forward and pull the reins of the leading horse, stroked the horse's neck with his big hand, and tried his best to comfort him in a low voice.
Feng Yiyang regained his might, walked to Xiao Rong's side, and asked curiously, "Senior brother, what's wrong with these horses?"
Xiao Rong said in a deep voice: "I'm not sure, these horses have cloudy eyes, and the horses' necks are covered with sweat and dust, it seems that they were frightened and galloped all the way over in a panic." ”
Feng Yiyang said: "The horses are timid, is it possible that they were frightened by someone or something?"
Xiao Rong shook his head and said categorically: "There is absolutely no way, these are high-grade military horses, even if there are spears, halberds, scimitars and swords in front, as long as the master gives an order, they can pounce up without hesitation, who can scare them like this? I look like they were frightened by wolves, I saw a horse scared like this by wolves in my early years." ”
"Wolves?" Feng Yiyang rubbed his wrist: "I really want to see what wolves are like, but will there really be wolves near Chang'an City?"
Xiao Rong shook his head and said: "I don't know, it stands to reason that ordinary wolves can't scare military horses like this, and besides, the forbidden army is not vegetarian, so ten or twenty wolves shouldn't be nothing." ”
Feng Yiyang said strangely: "What the hell could it be?"
Although Xiao Rong knew a lot about horses, he really couldn't guess it, and after thinking for a while, he said impatiently: "Let's go, go and see what happened." ”
Feng Yiyang sighed and jumped onto the horse.
When they saw the corpse, the neck of the corpse was no longer bleeding, the blood on the ground had almost dried up, and the bloody wounds were still shocking.
Feng Yiyang and Xiao Rong didn't say a word, and looked at the corpse that had fallen to the ground with a blushing face.
The people of Chang'an City only know that Xiao Rong can fight Jiang Weihan and heal, but they always forget that the tracking and investigation skills of the six doors are unparalleled in the world, which is also the root of the six gates' repeated strange cases.
Only this time, after the conclusion of the inquest of the scene, Xiao Rong and Feng Yiyang's faces became even more ugly, and the two exchanged glances and still didn't say a word.
All of the corpses maintained the same standard enemy maneuver as they had before they died.
There are two types of wounds, one is a scratch from the bottom left to the top right, and the other is a scratch from the bottom right to the top left, and the depth is even.
Although there were two wounds, it was almost certain that they were the work of one person.
One man, in one breath, killed fifty cavalrymen of the Forbidden Army!
The ground was full of footprints, but not one of them left.
Feng Yiyang and Xiao Rong both fell into deep thought.
