Chapter Twenty-Three: Exploring the King's Mansion at Night
In the face of more than 100 soldiers, Hong Jin's face did not have the slightest fear, which made all the soldiers admire, but also fearful.
Hong Jin sighed: "Who are you? Tell me, what did I do? Why do so many people come to arrest me?"
The military attache snorted coldly: "This official is Gao Zhiyuan, the mighty general of Dali Kingdom. Heaven taught you, a thief, to fall into my hands, just to eliminate harm for the people and share worries for the country. ”
"Arrest him, and let him live. Gao Zhiyuan waved his hand and shouted.
Several soldiers rushed up together, they looked fierce, each holding a blade, but they had also practiced kung fu, and they were all elite soldiers of Dali.
Hong Jin roared and immediately rushed over, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, where ordinary soldiers could touch his body.
Gao Zhiyuan was furious when he saw it, but he didn't have the slightest timidity, but instead urged the horse and stabbed at Hong Jin with a spear.
As soon as Hong Jin stretched out his hand, he grabbed the spear in Gao Zhiyuan's hand, and his movements were simple and practical.
Gao Zhiyuan was shocked, and hurriedly regained it with all his might, but who knew that Hong Jin pinched the gun in one hand, but the gun was motionless.
"You come down for me. Hong Jin yelled, pulled hard, and immediately pulled Gao Zhiyuan off the horse.
Before Gao Zhiyuan could struggle, Hong Jin grabbed him and lifted him over like a chicken.
Everything happened in the lightning and fire, and those soldiers didn't see Hong Jin's movements clearly at all, but they found that Gao Zhiyuan had been captured.
At this moment, the soldiers who had rushed over took a step back, lest the blade in their hands accidentally injure Gao Zhiyuan first.
"General Gao, you should have heard of my prestige, don't you say, what's going on?" Hong Jin shouted majestically, and Gao Zhiyuan immediately felt breathless.
In less than a moment, Gao Zhiyuan's face was already flushed, and he only had one breath left.
"What a thief, don't let General Gao go quickly!"
"Annoy us, shoot you like a hedgehog with arrows!"
"If you can release General Gao, maybe he will open the net and spare you from death!"
......
All the soldiers shouted one after another, and everyone was trying to find a way to save their General Gao.
Hong Jin withdrew his strength, Gao Zhiyuan immediately coughed violently, he looked at Hong Jin, his heart was full of fear.
Gao Zhiyuan didn't dare to be reckless, so he honestly told Hong Jin what had happened.
It turned out that someone in Dali gave an order to hunt down Hong Jin's life, and specially painted his image to arrest him.
Hong Jin couldn't help but be stunned, as far as he knew, the Dali Duan clan has always not oppressed people with national strength, and has always followed the rules of the rivers and lakes when treating people in the rivers and lakes, but now what's wrong?
Looking at Gao Zhiyuan's frightened appearance, Hong Jin couldn't help but sneer, the punishment this guy received was almost the same, there was no need to be embarrassed for him.
Thinking of this, Hong Jin threw Gao Zhiyuan up and threw it at the soldiers, causing chaos.
By the time the chaos subsided, Hong Jin had already disappeared without a trace, and with his kung fu, how could ordinary soldiers catch him.
Seeing that Hong Jin was so brave, these soldiers were just bluffing and throwing some arrows indiscriminately.
The night was dark.
Hong Jin, dressed in black, appeared in front of the Zhennan Palace, he was about to visit the palace at night, and took the opportunity to explain the misunderstanding with Duan Zhengchun.
Thinking that with the skills of Zhong Wanqiu and others, they could break into Zhennan Wangfu at night, Hong Jin couldn't help but be full of confidence.
The courtyard wall of Zhennan Wangfu was very high, but it couldn't block Hong Jin's way, he flew up, his body borrowed a little strength in the air, and he successfully climbed to the top of the wall.
Hong Jin lightly plunged, like a big bird, and landed on the inside of the Zhennan Palace, and then disappeared into the vast night.
There were many warriors on duty in the palace, but they were used to living a peaceful life, and most of these people were just decorations, and they had no vigilance at all.
Hong Jin has been touching the depths of the palace, and then he has become cautious, not to mention others, Duan Zhengchun, the king of Zhennan, is a master, and he must be especially careful.
After hiding by the rockery and listening for a while, Hong Jin grasped Duan Zhengchun's location and followed him very carefully.
In the living room of the palace, the lights are brilliant, and in the middle of the tiger skin chair sits Duan Zhengchun, who is more than forty years old, with a national character face, and his appearance is quite majestic.
Beside Duan Zhengchun sat an elegant man with three locks of long beard, presumably a good interpreter of Hou Gao Shengtai.
At the head of the palace sat the four ministers of the palace, with different appearances, presumably the fisherman Chu Wanli, the woodcutter Gu Ducheng, the farmer Fu Sigui, and the scholar Zhu Danchen.
There were two other people in the guest seat, who were actually Yu Guanghao and Ge Guangpei of the Infinite Sword Sect.
There were only eight people in the hall, but there were many masters among them, Hong Jin didn't dare to be careless, held his breath, and quietly hid outside the hall to listen.
Yu Guanghao choked up and said: "The Infinite Sword Sect suffered this unprecedented catastrophe, only the foolish couple survived, Sizhi is really painful, God is fortunate that the prince and the high prince are righteous, and they promise to uphold justice for us, they are really grateful." ”
Duan Zhengchun said solemnly: "Wuliang Mountain originally belongs to Dali, and the affairs of the Wuliang Sword Sect are the affairs of my Duan family, these thieves have done such heinous and evil deeds, and the Duan family will never stand idly by." I just don't know who these thieves are, do they have eyebrows?"
Yu Guanghao wiped a handful of tears: "The people who did such a thing of losing their conscience are the four evil people in the world, as well as the evil thief Hong Jin." ”
At first glance, hearing Yu Guanghao's words, Hong Jin was speechless in shock, he remembered that he had saved Yu Guanghao's life, but he didn't expect him to spew blood here.
Duan Zhengchun slapped his hand on the table heavily, and his eyes were full of murderous anger: "Sure enough, it was a good thing done by these four wicked people, and it is rumored that each of them has done all the bad things, and now they actually come to Dali to make trouble." If we don't kill them all, won't it damage the prestige of my Dali? But I don't know who this Hongjin is?"
Yu Guanghao paused for a moment, and then said: "Lord, Hong Jin, this cheap thief, is more hateful than the four evildoers, it is rumored that he is from Shaolin, but because of bad conduct, he was driven out of the Shaolin Temple. ”
Gao Shengtai interjected: "I have already arranged to pay close attention to the whereabouts of Hong Jin and the four evildoers, and as soon as we find out, we will take action." ”
At this moment, a guard reported: "Outside the door, General Weiyuan, a subordinate of the Marquis of Shanyan, asked to see him." ”
Duan Zhengchun nodded, the guards went out, and not long after, Gao Zhiyuan walked in.
Hong Jin looked at Gao Zhiyuan's face with a clear bruise, his expression was quite embarrassed, and he couldn't help but feel secretly proud.
Gao Zhiyuan first saw Duan Zhengchun and Gao Shengtai, and then said hesitantly: "I was patrolling the city and found the news of Hong Jin's thief. ”
Gao Shengtai couldn't help but be overjoyed, and asked repeatedly: "You didn't startle the snake, right, where is Hongjin now?"
Gao Zhiyuan squeaked and said, "I want to capture him and sacrifice him to the prince, but it's ......"
"Then have you captured him?" Gao Shengtai glanced at Gao Zhiyuan and sneered.
Gao Zhiyuan's expression became even more embarrassed, and he said embarrassedly: "Hong Jin's skills are really clever, and he actually escaped when he saw a bad opportunity, but according to my inference, he should still be in Dali City." ”
"You guy, it's a big deal for me. Gao Shengtai flicked the sleeves of his robe and said angrily.
Seeing Gao Shengtai's pale face, Gao Zhiyuan knew that he was really angry, and he was worried in his heart.
Gao Zhiyuan had long known that Gao Shengtai would be angry, but he still fantasized that he only lost his temper and finished the matter, and now it seems that this matter will not stop there.
Duan Zhengchun said with a smile: "Everyone first extinguishes the anger, this matter must not be impatient, we must find out Hong Jin's evil deeds, and then deal with it." ”
Gao Shengtai hurriedly said: "All this is what Yu Gongzi saw with his own eyes, will there be any fakes there?"
Duan Zhengchun nodded: "Everyone, please sit down and have a cup of tea." This is Dali's famous Pubao tea, the fragrance is strong, the soup is bright, the aroma is quiet, the taste is mellow, everyone try it, see how?"
Yu Guanghao's eyes were full of sadness: "On our Wuliang Mountain, we also produce common bait tea, in Jianhu Palace, there is also a thousand-year-old tea tree, senior brothers and younger brothers often practice swords under the tree, chat and talk, who knows that now it is heaven and man ......forever separated."
Duan Zhengchun persuaded: "The deceased is gone, Yu Gongzi doesn't need to be too sad, as long as the two of you can cheer up, it may not be possible to revive the Infinite Sword Sect, and my Duan clan is willing to do my best to help." ”
"Lord Wang, I'm sorry, I made a momentary gaffe and made you bother. Yu Guanghao's eyes were full of gratitude.
Duan Zhengchun raised the teacup in his hand, and suddenly said loudly: "The one who is eavesdropping outside, if you don't dislike it, please come in and have a cup of tea." ”
Hong Jin couldn't help but be shocked, knowing that he was too excited just now, and inadvertently revealed his form.
Now it's too late to say anything, Hong Jin had to walk in hard, his steps were calm, even in front of many martial arts masters, he still looked very calm.
Yu Guanghao and Ge Guangpei, they never expected that they would meet Hong Jin here, no matter how thick-skinned Yu Guanghao was, a trace of shame flashed in his eyes, but Ge Guangpei kept bowing his head and saying nothing.
Hong Jin walked up to Duan Zhengchun and said with a smile: "Boy Hong Jin, see Lord Duan, seniors are invited." ”
Duan Zhengchun's eyes shone brightly, and he shouted majestically: "You are Hong Jin, colluding with the four wicked people and killing Hong Jin, who is full of Infinite Sword Sect, how dare you come here?"
Hong Jin smiled proudly: "As long as your heart is open, where in the world you can't go?" Lord Wang, I said that I didn't kill the people of the Infinite Sword Sect, do you believe it or not?"
Duan Zhengchun pondered for a moment: "Hong Jin, if you say that you didn't kill people, you must give me a reason, a convincing reason." ”
Hong Jin was stunned, he was with Duan Yu at the time, but Duan Yu is crazy now, I don't know where to go, there are too many of these things, these people present, will they really give him these time to explain?
Seeing that Gao Shengtai and the others were ready to make a move at any time, Hong Jin sighed: "Lord Wang, if you only listen to one side of the story, what you get is definitely the wrong conclusion, I hope you can think about these words......"
Gao Shengtai rushed over with an arrow step and grabbed Hong Jin head-on: "What a sneaky and bold thief, let us catch you, and then come to ask questions." ”
Hong Jin was forced out of anger by Gao Shengtai: "Gao Junhou, you want to capture me, but I'm afraid you don't have this ability." ”
Syllable!
The two made a move, Gao Shengtai was forced to retreat by Hong Jin's move, but Hong Jin's body also shook.
The people present were all taken aback, what is Gao Shengtai's skills, these people all understand, but they didn't expect that as soon as they fought, he actually suffered a loss first.
Gao Shengtai relied on his deep internal strength, but he didn't expect that in the hard-to-face internal force confrontation, he fell behind, and his face couldn't help but be full of horror.
This is also because Hong Jin was sucked a small amount of internal force by Duan Yu, otherwise, Gao Shengtai may suffer a greater loss.
Gao Zhiyuan shouted on the side: "To deal with this kind of thief, you don't have to pay attention to the rules of the rivers and lakes, everyone rushes up and catches him first." ”
Seeing that Gao Shengtai had lost the upper hand, the four of them rushed forward together, each holding a sword, and surrounded Hong Jin in the middle.
Duan Zhengchun opened his mouth to persuade: "Hong Jin, now that you have wings and can't escape, it's better to be captured." I promise that as long as you are not involved in the killing, you will be spared. How?"
Hong Jin knew that Duan Zhengchun was a person, but how could he rest assured that he would put his life in the hands of others, and sneered at the moment: "Lord Duan, you regard this place as a tiger's den in Longtan, but if I want to break out, these people may not be able to stop me." ”
