"Hugh is rampant!" suddenly came a loud shout from the dark shore in front of the left, and a black shadow brandished a scimitar and slashed a bolt of lightning that fell towards the bow of the ship across a distance of seven or eight feet. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

A long laugh like a silver bell sounded, and Ouyang Qian's figure flew out, drawing her sword in the air, drawing a smooth arc after a circle.

Outsiders couldn't see the mystery, but the figure that rushed in was an exclamation of "ahhh In the case of unable to retreat, he can only raise his knife and slash over, trying to win by clumsiness.

The swords intersected, and there was no due shock, and in the "squeak" of the inverted tooth acid, the sword body sharpened a spark on the blade, which suddenly deflected the direction of the landing point of the comer.

In the darkness, the black shadow, who had not even had time to make the people on the ship see clearly, slammed into the hard side of the ship amid a series of screams, and fell to the surface of the river with blood on its face.

Ouyang Qian laughed again, her figure flew back upside down, and fell into the seat delicately, without even touching the edge of the table.

A powerful murderous aura swept from the shore where someone from the left front pounced. Liu Qiwei laughed and stood up, took out the big knife placed on the table, raised it high with the power of turning, and slashed the hatch behind him with a "click".

Shocked by Liu Qiwei's powerful and incomparable internal force, the sneak attacker bounced to the ground, and without caring about internal injuries, he desperately crashed through the back door of the cabin and threw himself down to the river. caused the boat girls hiding in the back of the flower boat to scream again.

Liu Qiwei's big knife swinged back, "grabbing" the head of the knife into the table, holding the knife handle, the tiger's eyes were wide, the majesty of the five tiger generals was fully opened, and he didn't let the murderous aura from the shore in front of him push back, hehe sneered: "Has the master behind finally appeared?"

The man standing on the shore in front of him on the left did not hide his face, and the faint light on the boat dimly shone away, and it was vaguely seen that his face was high and convex, and his appearance was very rough and simple, but he was not angry and self-threatening, and he had a king-like demeanor.

This person locked Liu Qiwei with murderous aura and didn't say a word. It wasn't until his two wounded accomplices climbed ashore and saw that Liu Qiwei was still confronting him with a sneer, without showing any fatigue, that he was sure that the other party was not poisoned, and his body disappeared into the woods on the shore.

――――

The next day, the Shaozhou Mansion.

"Brother Liu, what do you think is the origin of that mysterious person?" asked Liu Qiwei.

"I didn't expect Zeng Zhongquan to even know who hired him!" Liu Qiwei muttered: "But judging from the scimitars used by the two of that person's subordinates, most of them are from the Western Regions. ā€

"Indeed!" Ouyang Qian agreed: "Unlike our Central Plains martial arts characters who are used to using swords, the people of the Western Regions are good at using scimitars. I heard that since the older generation of sword gods, sword saints, sword idiots and others retired to the rivers and lakes, the most famous of the new generation of swordsmen in the Western Regions are Xirong Eight Swords and Wind Four Slashes. I wonder if the person who tried to attack Big Brother yesterday was one of those characters?"

"If you are from the Western Regions, I am afraid that the problem will be complicated. Sima Long said: "Look at the methods they used, it is purely an assassination act. These people should have no personal enmity with Brother Liu, so their behavior is a bit intriguing. ā€

"And the poison they used, the antidote herb we found didn't work at all. Ouyang Qian still had palpitations and said: "Until now, I still feel that the dantian is stagnant, and the luck is not very smooth. Big brother, be careful!"

"You can go to Fengwu Villa with confidence, and bring my gifts and blessings with you. Liu Qiwei said with a smile: "Now that the wanted warrant has been issued, with that assassin's unique appearance and temperament, his whereabouts will be revealed soon." Prince Zhongzheng has just returned from signing a peace agreement with King Xirong, and there is no conclusive evidence, so I really can't explain this matter to the emperor. ā€

Searching for criminals is not a matter of urgency, and Sima Long was also afraid of delaying his trip to Hubei, so he nodded in agreement: "With heavy troops on the side, presumably the assassins will not dare to act rashly, but Brother Liu must not take it lightly." ā€

"Brother, don't worry, but you husband and wife should be careful!" Liu Qiwei said: "If you didn't know that you have the magical exercises that make all your internal strength and swordsmanship come together, what your brother said today would not let you leave." ā€

After the two sides exchanged respects, Sima Long and Ouyang Qian left Shaozhou and continued north.

How do you know that it has only been half a day's journey, and there is a sound of hooves behind you, and someone shouts loudly: "General Sima, please stay, Ouyang Woman, please stay." ā€

Sima Long and Ouyang Qian turned around and found that there were two people dressed as headhunters. One of the slightly chubby head catchers looked anxious, raised his hand and shouted: "The two heroes stay, and our Lord Zhizhou asks the two to return to Shaozhou quickly." ā€

Sima Long asked in surprise, "Why are you so anxious?"

"It's Lord Liu-" The fat catcher ignored the bumps on the horse's back, and gasped: "Lord Liu has been stabbed!"

"What?" Sima Long and Ouyang Qian were taken aback.

I was fine when I left before, but I didn't expect it to turn into elbows and armpits in a blink of an eye.

"How is this possible?" Ouyang Qian asked bitterly, "Big brother, how is he now?"

At this time, the two catchers had already rushed to the front, facing Sima Long and Ouyang Qian's horse heads.

It may have happened too suddenly, and the other slightly thin catcher still looked a little nervous, and the fat catcher still explained: "I don't know how the assassin got into the palace? Although Lord Liu's skills are not weaker than the other party's at all, he may have been injured in the assassin's initial sneak attack-"

"Does that assassin have a wide forehead and a big face and high cheekbones?" the fat catcher was describing the scene vividly, not believing Sima Long to interrupt him.

"Exactly. The fat catcher didn't realize that his loophole appeared there, and he tried his best to describe: "That person has a king-like spirit, but the means used are very inferior, if it weren't for their sneak attack, he wouldn't be Lord Liu's opponent at all......"

Sima Long and Ouyang Qian glanced at each other, and suddenly they both drew their swords and pressed them against the throats of the two opposites.

"General Sima, what do you mean by that?" exclaimed the fat catcher.

Sima Long didn't bother to explain at all, and asked sharply: "What is the origin of those people from the Western Regions? Do you know that you aided the abuse, assassinated the court officials, committed a capital crime, and punished the nine clans according to the law?"

The fat catcher still had to quibble, but he didn't expect that the companion next to him leaned back to avoid Ouyang Qian's sword, planted it from behind the horse, and ran into the dense forest next to the road.

The fat catcher's face was like ashes, he had no chance to run again, and Sima Long, who was on guard, sent out a qi machine to lock him all his retreats, as long as the fat catcher dared to move slightly, the long sword would take his life mercilessly.

In a moment, Ouyang Qian had already come out of the forest with the thin trapper head that had been pointed.

Sima Long said coldly to the fat catcher: "Say, who are you?"
