A knife in love

Chapter 31

In terms of martial arts alone, the five owners of Wuhu Mountain Villa are not top figures in the Jianghu, but each of them has a unique skill. Therefore, if the five join forces, no master in the Jianghu will dare to underestimate them.Li Qiufeng and Yan Dufei listened to Zhuang Hengyun's report that Dongchang and Jinyiwei recruited so many martial arts masters to do one thing, so this thing is definitely an earth-shattering event.But the world has never heard of such a major event happening in the past ten years, and Xu En, the chief eunuch of the East Factory, has not heard from him since then, and even Li Qiufeng has worked in Jinyiwei for five years, and no one has mentioned this matter.The two looked at each other, both of them were quite surprised.

Zhuang Hengyun said: "Besides our five brothers, there were many masters from other sects. The leader was Lu Zhongfu, the head of the Kongtong sect. Brother Yu acted as the general liaison, and divided us into three teams. Leaving the city. I was assigned to the first team, and there were He Yi and others in the same team.

"After we left the city gate, we walked not far to the south of the city and entered a big mountain. At this time, Brother Yu rushed over and called us together. Only then did we know that the purpose of our trip was to steal a tomb. .

"To be honest, my elder brother was a well-known robber back then, but he didn't know anything about tomb robbery. Brother Yu called a man out and asked him to be the leader of the group. This man was short and fat, and he looked like a piece of meat The ball, but flexible and extremely aggressive."

Li Qiufeng suddenly said: "This person is Ma Kongkong."

Yan Dufei was startled, and was about to ask, but Zhuang Hengyun said, "That's right. Ma Kongkong was a famous tomb robber back then. I don't know what method Yun Feiyang used to win over Ma Kongkong to him." In the team."

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said, "When we were at Wuhu Villa that day, Jin Yiwei besieged Ma Kongkong, and I happened to be there. Although Ma Kongkong was not thin, he was definitely not fat either. Brother Zhuang said he was a meatball , can it be said that in ten years, a person can change so much?"

Zhuang Hengyun smiled wryly and said: "Things in the world are unpredictable. We didn't expect to be fooled by Ma Kongkong that day! At that time, everyone saw that Ma Kongkong took the lead, and immediately felt relieved. After walking for more than ten miles in the mountains, we saw Suddenly a large tomb appeared.

"The scale of this tomb is very large. There are eight white jade steps in front of the tomb, and each floor has nine steps, a total of 72 steps. At the end of the stone steps is a huge archway. On the six pillars of the archway, there are six dragons carved on the six pillars. It looks majestic and magnificent. Behind the archway is a huge mountain gate with carved beams and painted buildings, which is extremely luxurious, and we are all stunned."

Li Qiufeng said: "I think this is the mausoleum dedicated to the emperor."

Zhuang Hengyun nodded, and Yan Dufei said puzzledly: "Dedicated to the emperor? How could there be such an emperor in Ming Dynasty? Besides, since the founding of the ancestors, all emperors of Ming Dynasty were buried in the area of ​​Tianshou Mountain after their death. It has never been heard that an emperor was buried In Huguang."

Li Qiufeng said: "Brother Yan doesn't know anything. The current emperor inherits the Datong as King Xingxian. In order to 'dedicate to the emperor', the original tomb of King Xingxian was built in Huguang, and it was also upgraded and rebuilt according to the regulations of the emperor's mausoleum, which is called Xianling."

Zhuang Hengyun said: "Brother Li's words are very true. It's just that we didn't know that the tomb of King Xingxian was to be robbed that day. It's just that seeing this tomb is so big, we were a little uneasy. Ma Kongkong rushed in first The main hall, the hall is resplendent and resplendent, even the lamp bowls are made of jasper material, which makes our eyes look straight, and some people want to take those treasures.

"Ma Kongkong said: 'Everyone is so petty, when we enter the tomb, there will be a mountain of gold, silver and jewels inside, don't waste your time here.' I heard him say this, and I felt good in my heart, so I put it in my arms He took out his two jade bowls and put them back on the table as they were.

"A group of people passed through three main halls one after another, passed another watchtower, and finally came to a huge round hill. The door of the tomb was carved from a whole piece of white marble, and there were two door gods engraved on the door. Holding a sword, he looked at us viciously. I met the door god's eyes, and I felt uneasy in my heart.

"At this time, He Yi sneaked up to me and whispered: 'Something is wrong. Why is there no one guarding such a large mausoleum?' When I think about it, it is indeed what he said. Along the way, all the halls are There is no one. It is the ordinary rich landowners in the countryside. If they build a tomb for their ancestors, they will hire one or two tenants to live near the tomb to guard the tomb. The scale of this large tomb is so huge that it may be a mausoleum of the first class. , should be guarded by the army, but why is there no one?

"At this moment, I heard someone's exclamation suddenly. I looked around, but saw a person standing behind the line was hoisted in the air, and I didn't see any ropes or other things entangled him. Ma Kongkong shouted "There are enemies coming, everyone be careful!" He hadn't finished his sentence when the person being hoisted screamed, and there seemed to be an invisible sharp knife in mid-air, cutting off his head.

"We saw his body and head falling to the ground. Everyone was shocked. We were searching for the enemy's figure. Unexpectedly, we heard someone screaming again. But we saw a brother from the Eagle Claw Gate covering his throat with his hands and screaming. Then he fell to the ground and died out of breath. We knew that he had fallen for the enemy, but we didn’t dare to examine his body, for fear that the enemy would take advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack, in which case we would be the next one to fall.

"Several companions fell to the ground inexplicably and died afterwards, but we didn't even see the enemy. There were 15 people in the first team, and there were only nine left at this time. He Yi and I stood back to back, facing the enemy. Searching around, I saw dense old trees, but I didn't even see a single person.

"I am ashamed to say that I have been in the world for more than 20 years, and I have never seen a situation like that day. Before the enemy showed up, he killed six of our masters. The remaining nine people also looked at each other in blank dismay, only two or three A group, relying on each other to prevent the enemy from attacking secretly.

"After a stick of incense, I suddenly heard screams from outside the watchtower. Everyone was stunned. At this moment, I suddenly found that Ma Kongkong had disappeared without knowing when. I thought to myself that even the leader They all ran away, what are we still doing here? He whispered to He Yi: "Don't think about the tomb robbery today, it's important to get out of danger first!

"He Yi had this intention a long time ago, and we rushed towards the watchtower one after the other. Unexpectedly, other people also had the same thoughts. Seeing that we were elected and snatched out, they all followed. At this moment, the people hiding around The enemy took advantage of the chaos and launched a sneak attack with hidden weapons, only to hear the screams behind him, and several people who were running slowly were killed by the enemy with hidden weapons.

"We didn't dare to look back, so we rushed over from the watchtower, only to see two groups of people fighting in the third hall. He Yi and I rushed into the hall, but saw Lu Zhongfu covered in blood, fighting with four men in black. The battle was fierce. Several other companions were also surrounded by a group of men in black. There were more than [-] corpses lying on the ground, most of them were our companions.

"As soon as I entered the hall, two men in black immediately attacked me. These two men were dressed in black, with masks on their heads, and only a pair of eyes were exposed. The weapons they used were long knives. As fast as lightning, I was suddenly attacked and almost hit by them. Fortunately, He Yi rushed over to help me punch, and the fight was barely tied.

"After more than a dozen rounds of fighting, only Lu Zhongfu yelled, but he was slashed on the right chest. He was also really fierce, holding the enemy's long knife in his left hand, and stabbing the opponent through with a sword in his right hand. His heart was cold. But the other three enemies took the opportunity to surround him, and immediately killed Lu Zhongfu on the spot.

"At this time, there were more than 20 men in black in the temple, and there were only seven of our companions left. After fighting for a while, although a few more men in black were killed, only three of us remained. These men in black The martial arts are not very strong, but the sword technique is weird, the angle of the move is unimaginable, and their coordination between advance and retreat is very clever, and they will use the pillars and tables in the hall to attack secretly, making it extremely difficult to defend."

When Li Qiufeng and Yan Dufei heard what he said, they couldn't help but think of those swordsmen who attacked them on the road.

Zhuang Hengyun said: "After fighting for a while, only He Yi and I were left. I think today must be unlucky. These men in black started viciously. If they fall into their hands, I might as well find a way to end it myself. I just wanted to wipe my neck." When he was still poking his chest and dying quickly, He Yi suddenly waved his hands and threw two hidden weapons to the ground. When the hidden weapons fell to the ground, there were two loud noises, smoke rose from the ground, and the hall was instantly dark. He Yi Yi took the opportunity to pull my arm, and the two of them rushed out of the hall desperately, and rushed out of the mausoleum."
