Assassin He Chunxia

Chapter 106 Mausoleum

Embellished with black gauze with flowers, round neck crimson gauze gown, red belt on the east, embroidered cloud official boots, lined with Liu Lingguan's blurred and affectionate peach blossom eyes, what a romantic and handsome groom.

"You are dressed like a prostitute." He Chunxia waved his hand at Kuanglansheng, slowly withdrew his sword, and looked up and down thoughtfully at Liu Lingguan, "A runaway young shopkeeper who gave up his beauty for the sake of his brother?"

Liu Lingguan frowned, scratched his head, first glanced at Kuang Lansheng, the third young master of the Qi family unconsciously appeared in his mind, so he nodded.

The rest of the people came out of the tunnel and stepped into the courtyard one after another. Zhang Zhouzhou was carrying an oil lamp. In the courtyard, the bloody smell of the wreckage had not completely dissipated, which made him extremely nauseous. "Guardian Jiang is a bit cruel."

"Guardian Jiang? Did Jiang Zifu, the temple master of Chaotian Palace, do this? How could it be?" Liu Lingguan glanced over everyone, Ye Shu, Li Siyi, the Twelve Ancient Books?Liu Lingguan had many questions in his mind, and asked them one by one, "How did you find out about this secret passage? It's related to Guanzhu Jiang? What do you want to do when you come to the city?"

"Guardian Jiang discovered the secret way, and was forced into the city by the Huwei Camp as a hostage." Ye Shu sighed, took the Suxue sword handed back by Kuang Lansheng, and put it on in a familiar position. As a result, none of the disciples and villagers survived the fight in Yangjia Village just now."

Gu Twelve Books answered, "We came to look for Guanzhu Jiang, but we found out about these things in Yangjiacun. Guanzhu Jiang was injured, and Wu Tianshi took him back to Chaotian Palace first. On the way here, I saw spies from Nanzhen Fusi scattered into the outer city. , we just want to come to the inner city to investigate the situation.”

"Shh!"

Kuang Lansheng sniffled and lowered his voice, "The smell of blood here is too strong, it is difficult to distinguish the alcohol smell from the person who followed us earlier, first go back to the tunnel, the situation in the city, it is best to ask the bridegroom officer of the Zheng family , talk slowly."

Seeing his serious expression, everyone suppressed their doubts, followed him back to the tunnel and walked toward the inner city. Along the way, they heard the news from Liu Lingguan, Yu Ziqi's arrival, Zheng Xianyong's struggle, and Jiang Alang's depravity. The more they listened The more frightened.

Jiang Zifu left in a hurry. Everyone couldn't fully understand what he said. It was only at this moment that Liu Lingguan's explanation gave everyone a glimpse of the intricacies in the dark.

Everyone was thinking of splitting the troops into two groups, so Liu Lingguan and Kuang Lansheng went to the third young master of the Qi family to discuss the military affairs, and then withdrew from Nanjing with the Han family army.The others immediately took Mo Qingshan out of Nanjing, went to Huai'an to seek asylum from Zhu Tongsheng, and then tried to find a way to send her back to Beijing.

The secret road was about to be completed, but the plan was rejected by Kuang Lansheng.

After hesitating for a while, he still told everyone what Qi Baiyu did that he saw on the boat that day.He Chunxia, ​​Ye Shu, and Li Siyi boarded the stone bridge, combined with Zhuang Zhou's remarks, they were able to connect everything.

Qi Baiyu doesn't care about the ownership of the imperial power and winning or losing at all, he just wants to let Dayu Dynasty shed more blood, the more souls dissipate between heaven and earth, the stronger the power of heaven will be.

The other three only thought it was some kind of Taoist mysterious talk, a personal grievance of the same line.Since Qi Baiyu can't be trusted, let Liu Lingguan go to the third young master of the Qi family alone, and only tell the military situation, go and leave quickly, meet up with everyone outside the city, and flee to Huai'an together.

Out of the secret road, parted ways.

In the capital city, the banquet was still there, and the thin old man who looked like a ghost floated behind Zheng Xianyong, whispering in his ear.

Zheng Xianyong's flushed cheeks started to turn black because of the alcohol, he took a few long breaths, drank a few sips of herbal tea, called his cronies in the banquet with a cold face, and sent someone to invite Shi Zhichuan.On the day of the wedding, the son-in-law ran away, which was too embarrassing, and led everyone to other courtyards.

"Don't tell Hsinchu about the matter, just say that the war is tight. I will invite Liu Lingguan to discuss the matter." Zheng Xianyong turned his hands away and paced back and forth in the room. Shi Zhichuan sat on the chair and glanced at Jiang Alang's position. The thin old man stepped forward , lying next to his ear, and said what he said before.

Shi Zhichuan's expression darkened, and he raised his glass tremblingly. After drinking the tea, he slapped the teacup on the small table again, "Xing Dong! How dare you lie to me about such a big event! Except for the guards on duty, In an hour, how many soldiers and horses can Master Zheng and I mobilize?"

The people waiting outside the house didn't know the truth, and looked suspicious, "One hour? Less than three thousand."

"Assemble immediately, and rush to the courtyard of Xing Dong in Huwei Camp." Shi Zhichuan didn't think twice, "There is a secret passage dug in the courtyard, go directly to the secret passage, and the exit of the secret passage is Yangjia Village in Zijin Mountain. You don't have to stay, just go up the mountain , rush to Chaotian Palace."

Shi Zhichuan sighed, stood up, and patted Zheng Xianyong on the shoulder, "Jiang Zifu is on good terms with you, and I'll go to Chaotian Palace to capture Mo Qingshan. I'll do it. The military situation is urgent. Tonight at the latest, you have to gather your troops and kill him." Go out of the city and raid the Han family army."

Zheng Xianyong stopped, "What are you doing to raid Han's army?"

"The Qi family and the Han family will definitely be loyal to Yu Gufeng. Eliminating the third young master of the Qi family and the Han family army is equivalent to weakening the power of the court. Besides, if under Liu Lingguan's persuasion, the Han family army withdraws from the city and reconciles with Zhu Tongsheng. Zhu Tongsheng is a tough guy. Here, the extra [-] soldiers should not be underestimated, it is better to make a surprise attack now and destroy the Han family army, the price is the least."

"Now the location of the third young master of the Qi family is unknown, and the Han family's army is divided into fragments, fighting on their own. Those who besieged the city, and those who rescued the victims are all stragglers. If they fight, they will be defeated and scattered among the people. They have to go door-to-door to clean up the prisoners. "Zheng Xianyong shook his head, "They withdrew, but we won Nanjing without a single soldier. It was a great achievement for King Zhenxi. If they don't withdraw, if they want to continue fighting, they have to concentrate their forces. However, we are outnumbered. The king of the west will attack back and forth, and sooner or later they will catch them all. In my opinion, I have the advantage, and the Han army should not care about it. In Chaotian Palace, the dragon species in Mo Qingshan's stomach is the most important thing."

Shi Zhichuan was about to refute, but was robbed by Zheng Xianyong, "Sooner or later King Zhenxi will ascend the throne and become emperor, and he has to go to Chaotian Palace to worship his ancestors! You are the villain. After all, Daoist Jiang and I have been friends for many years, let him live to talk. Remember, Chaotian Palace Heavenly Palace is the imperial mausoleum, you can use force, don't kill indiscriminately, if you see Xing Dong, you will be executed on the spot!"

"Sit down and look at three? Take Mo Qingshan first, and you can't be merciful because of the horoscope. The Taoist priests in the Chaotian Palace guard the tombs of the ancestors of the Yu Dynasty. Yu Ziqi is not orthodox and will never admit it. Besides, Mo Qing Shi Zhichuan is pregnant with a real dragon, and the Taoist priests in Chaotian Palace must fight to the death and refuse to let them go, or kill them all." Shi Zhichuan disagreed, "There are many variables, since Liu Lingguan can know the secret way from Jiang A-lang, with Going to give the secret to the third young master of the Qi family, I'm afraid I don't take advantage of the chaos to kill him at this time, and be careful about breeding tigers."

Zheng Xianyong closed his eyes, pondered for a long time, and sighed, "That's right, I'm sorry, Daoist Jiang. You go invite Mo Qingshan first, and I will gather my troops to take down the Han family army and recover the outer city under the cover of night." After speaking, he stared His eyes were rounded, with raging anger burning in his eyes, and his eyes swept over the other people inside and outside the house one by one, "Liu Lingguan was eager to make contributions, and led a cavalry to attack Han's army at night, and died in battle."

Everyone has been in the officialdom for many years, and they can understand it with just a few words.Mr. Zheng's daughter, in terms of family status, is a daughter of a thousand gold. Today, she married a merchant who was born in Shengdou, but her son-in-law defected to the enemy army.As soon as this remark came out, it was actually reminding everyone that if you see Mr. Zheng's son-in-law in the enemy army, kill him!

As the sun went down, He Chunxia and his party were very hungry. They ate some food in Chaotian Palace to satisfy their hunger. Just as they packed their luggage and were about to go down the mountain, a Taoist came to report that several roads on the mountain were blocked by rebels led by Shi Zhichuan. die.

Clanking iron armor, a rattan brand waist knife, and a large flag with the word Sichuan are lined up in a row, standing in front of the main entrance of Chaotian Palace, in front of a bluestone archway.The gray stone steps have gone through countless years, and now they are stepped on by military boots, waiting quietly to be dyed with new blood.

Two giant trees with a height of more than ten feet, separated by three feet, were planted by the ancestors of the Yu Dynasty on both sides of the archway. Now the branches cover one side, like a giant statue guarding here, looking down on all living beings.The three-character strong grass in Chaotian Palace was also written by the ancestors of the Yu Dynasty. On the huge plaque at the top of the archway, hundreds of years of wind and rain erosion have given these three characters a simple majesty left by the years, which is daunting.

This huge wooden archway, like an invisible moat, separated the Shijia army and the Taoist disciples.

Behind the archway and in front of the main hall, the site is vast and the road is extended.Chaotian Palace is a royal Taoist temple. Each temple is majestic and magnificent, with a wide view and no hidden places to hide. The square behind this archway is the last line of defense for Chaotian Palace disciples.

Both sides of the confrontation did not dare to act rashly. The disciples of the Taoist sect had no armor, and their numbers were too disadvantageous.Shi Jiajun was intimidated by the aura of the royal tomb, so he didn't dare to step forward to harass him easily.

The ancestors of the Yu Dynasty built mausoleums in Zijin Mountain. To prevent robbery, the mausoleums were hidden in the mountain. On the other hand, Chaotian Palace was built on the mountain, with one yin and one yang, so that Taoist disciples could guard the mausoleum for the royal family from generation to generation. The real location of the mausoleum Only the viewers of the past dynasties know.

The Shi family army is a rebel army. Under the majesty of the royal family, their momentum has weakened first. In addition, Shi Zhichuan intends to train the two brothers Shi Tinghan and Shi Tingcheng, and arranges for them to attack from the main road. opportunity.Shi Jiajun did not have the backing of a coach, so he was a little timid.

He Chunxia and his group hurried to the archway to help the disciples of Chaotian Palace to guard the gate. The Shijia brothers who were hiding behind the rattan plaque poked their heads out and recognized the long swords worn by everyone at their waists. Several sword masters were there, so they guessed that Mo Qingshan should have arrived together , Shi Tinghan stepped forward to speak holding the rattan badge.

"I heard that Mo Qingshan and Concubine Mo lived in Chaotian Palace. After all, this place is between mountains and fields. It is inconvenient to eat and wear. Concubine Mo is pregnant with dragon species. My father, Shi Zhichuan, recently renovated the palace city. , implore Concubine Mo to move to the palace city to recuperate."

Mo Qingshan wanted to politely refuse, but Ouyang Jing immediately stepped forward to block her behind, and whispered to everyone around her.

"These people have never seen what Mo Qingshan looks like. Let's try to see if we can exchange a civet cat from Ms. Li or Ms. He for the crown prince. First hand over the fake imperial concubine, and then find a chance to save people."

He Chunxia was eager to try, and exchanged his Everlasting Regret Sword with Mo Qingshan's Qiushui Sword without saying a word.

Ye Shu quickly shook his head, "During this period of time, in Nanjing City and Chaotian Palace, I have seen a lot of people in clothes. Take spring and summer as a substitute, and it is easy to be spotted. First, let's see how many people come. If there are few people, go out." That is, if there are many people, with our martial arts, it will not be difficult to keep our shirts on."

No one answered, Shi Tinghan turned around suspiciously, exchanged glances with Shi Tingcheng who was standing by the drum, and was about to order a strong attack, but saw Ouyang Jing coming forward with a long spear on his back, "Concubine Mo is carrying a dragon seed, and she was caught in the wind and cold on the road. The Taoists in the Heavenly Palace are highly skilled in medicine, and it is the best place to recuperate here. Concubine Mo thanked Mr. Shi for his kindness, and please invite the two young masters to go back. If you are worried that Concubine Mo’s food and clothing will be inconvenient, you can bring a few carts with all kinds of food. That is, there is no need to mobilize the teachers."

More and more Taoist disciples gathered in the square, and many of them came to support with talisman papers, magic weapons, and various weapons.Should we start the killing ring first?Shi Tinghan was so anxious that he had to go back to the army to discuss with Shi Tingcheng. The confidant Shi Zhichuan sent to oversee the army shook his head, lit a beacon on the long steps, and soared straight into the sky.

Shi Tinghan sighed, took out a few shriveled corn kernels from his inner pocket and held them in the palm of his hand. After a while, a gray pigeon flew into his hand with a note.

After opening the note and reading it, Shi Tinghan stepped forward again with confidence.

"Jiang Zifu, the master of the Chaotian Palace, is brutal! Killing the soldiers of our Huwei battalion, persecuting the villagers of Yangjiacun, how could Concubine Mo's daughter stay here and be persecuted by villains!"

"You spit out blood!"

"nonsense!"

"Guanzhu Jiang, you and other villains can slander him!"

The crowd was so excited that the disciples of Chaotian Palace yelled at each other, Shi Tinghan patted the soldiers in the front row contentedly, and continued to speak calmly, "The disciples of Chaotian Palace are stubborn, cover up evil deeds, and act according to reason. It cannot be tolerated, today, our Shijia army, for Concubine Mo and Long Zhong, eradicate these gangsters, and the soldiers obey orders!"

"kill!"

The drums of war are beating!Shi Jiajun's morale soared, and Shi Tinghan's lies were well known to everyone, but there was an excuse for everything, and confidence in his heart.The sergeants in the first row drew their swords and held their shields forward, while the sergeants in the back row climbed up the steps, pressing on step by step.

"Looking for death." Mo Qingshan frowned, and put his hand on the hilt of Changhen's sword, "The villain who turns black and white is the most annoying."

Ouyang Jing tore off the pear blossom gun behind his back, stroked the body of the gun, and stepped forward with the gun horizontally.There is an iron cylinder hanging on the front end of the gun barrel. After being improved by Sun Ruhu, it can spray poisonous fire.

"This place is the tomb of the royal family. Anyone who trespasses will die! If you hurt Concubine Mo, your historian will be executed everywhere!"

Shi Jiajun stopped and hesitated.

"My historian respects Yu Ziqi as emperor, and if we embark on this road of no return, there are only two endings left!" Shi Tingcheng who was hiding in the army suddenly stood up, roared loudly, and beat the drums heavily, "Either be rich and rich! Lonely ghost! Press it up!"

There are more and more Shijia troops in front of the archway, one row, two rows, gradually, the rattan shields are pressing close to the strong grass plaque of Chaotian Palace, and the distance between the two sides is only five feet.

Five feet high, you can even hear the sound of an arrow hitting the string.

Flesh and blood, against the battlefield, iron armor, sharp arrows, sharp knives.

A disciple of Chaotian Palace, clothed in Taoist robes, did not give an inch.

Shi Tinghan hid behind the sergeant, poked his head, looked at Ouyang Jing, and said with a sneer, "Be careful, don't hurt Concubine Mo, kill men at will, and women. Except for Concubine Mo, the other women will be shared with everyone. Remember to catch alive!"

He Chunxia, ​​Mo Qingshan, and the young Taoist priests in Chaotian Palace were so angry at this provocation that they stepped forward to fight with their swords.Ye Shu knew that as soon as these words came out, the two sides would fight to the death. The Shi family's army was strictly disciplined, and the rules of advance and retreat were orderly. The enemy was strong and we were weak. Taoist retreat, don't rush to attack.

The sword slashed on the rattan shield, and there was a muffled sound. The front row soldiers holding the shields of Shi Jiajun just paused, and immediately showed their ferocious fangs like a predator seeing its prey.

Screams began.

Waist knives slashed, long spears stabbed straight, and arrows from the back row all flew out. After all, the Taoist disciples were only flesh and blood, and they were brave, but blood was splashed on the corners of Shi Jiajun's clothes.

There are only two women, He and Mo, one behind the other, taking care of each other and cooperating seamlessly.He Chunxia relied on the quick sword to break through the armor, and the power of the stab was unstoppable. He forcibly tore a gap in the battle formation. Mo Qingshan followed behind He Chunxia, ​​swipe left and right, and the cloud-climbing footwork moved around, quietly In the month, Wushan used the two sword techniques alternately, blocking the spear point and blade for He Chunxia who was attacking from the side.

"Autumn Water Sword?" The two were very conspicuous on the battlefield. Shi Tinghan recognized the long sword in He Chunxia's hand, "The one who caught the living, the one who caught the living, those are Concubine Mo and He Chunxia!"

The sound of the drums changed, the battle formation began to shrink and encircle, Xiang He and Mo moved closer, Ye Shu tried his best to defend Li Siyi and Zhang Zhouzhou from the arrows in the chaos, and had no time to take care of them.

Gu Twelve Books and Ouyang Jing exchanged glances, and looked at Shi Tingcheng who was hiding at the entrance of the stone steps. The two brothers Shi Tinghan and the Shi family army had a large number of people. The disciples of Chaotian Palace would not be opponents. After just a few meetings, these Taoists There have been heavy casualties.The few of them are indeed top masters, but facing the well-trained military battle formation, they are tough and tough. Even if they slash a knife alone, they will be exhausted and exhausted, and they cannot endure the battle.

Shi Jiajun will not kill the two of He Mo, the king is the first to capture the thief.

The Ancient Twelve Books flipped his left hand, held several fine peach blossom needles in his hand, lowered his body and hid in the crowd, Wushan Sword only blocked and did not attack, using the crowd to cover his figure, he moved forward secretly.

Ouyang Jing shot his spear across and charged straight into the formation, spraying poisonous fire and sweeping across the area. The rattan shield was painted with special paint, which was not afraid of water and fire, but under the high temperature, the soldiers had to abandon the shield.The poisonous mist dispersed on the battlefield, regardless of enemy or friend. The dozen or so historian soldiers in front of Ouyang Jing suddenly felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, unable to exert their strength.

The long spear is the king of all soldiers, it is specially made for the battlefield, Ouyang Jing shook out a pear blossom spear, but in just one stick of incense, he stabbed down dozens of people, very domineering, and rushed towards the Shijia brothers with the gun.Shi Tingcheng naturally noticed, and beat the drum desperately, "Stop him, stop him. Protect the coach!"

When Shi Tinghan saw Ouyang Jing approaching menacingly, without saying a word, he turned around and fled down the stairs. Several elite members of the Shi family army immediately gathered around Shi Tingcheng who was beating the drum and giving orders.

The Ancient Twelve Books originally wanted to fight with Ouyang Jing, but Ouyang Jing attracted attention, and he launched a sneak attack, but the two brothers spared their lives. Start running for your life.

The plan failed, and both Gu Twelve Books and Ouyang Jing went deep into the historian's army, isolated and helpless, and fell into a bitter battle.

The disciples of Chaotian Palace were retreating steadily, the Shijia army pushed forward, they had already passed the archway and came to the square, but Mo Qingshan had already appeared, so there was no need to go deep into the halls to search, more than a thousand soldiers occupied the square, commanding with equipment and drums Changing formations, they calmly surrounded He Chunxia and Mo Qingshan.

These two girls are fast with swords and skillful in footwork. After paying dozens of lives, Shi Jiajun no longer fights with the two, but retreats, keeping a distance, encircling them with the two as the center of the circle, and retreating if the two make progress. If you can't keep up with the two of you and can't retreat in time, you can use your shield armor to resist a blow. When the shield is pierced, you roll away and let other sergeants fill in.

The sergeants outside the circle threw the traps several times, but He Chunxia's sword cut them through several times. The two of them were flexible and difficult to hit with poisonous darts.However, the Shijia brothers are not in a hurry. The sergeants on the periphery can be replaced at will. This slowly consumes the physical strength of the two people. How much strength can two women have in one hour or two hours?When the two of them were exhausted, they tied them back.

Ye Shu led the two juniors back to the main hall, leaving a pile of corpses on the square, only Gu Twelve Books, Ouyang Jing, He Chunxia, ​​and Mo Qingshan were still fighting fiercely. Constantly throwing objects down, and the Shijia army had no intention of attacking, so they barely defended.

In the main hall, Jiang Zifu had just been carried up by some old heavenly masters, and he was condescending. Seeing the tragic situation in the square, Jiang Zifu couldn't help sighing and counted the number of people. Before today, there were more than [-] disciples in each hall of Chaotian Palace, but now only half of them are left. .Mo Qingshan and others in the square were either captured or killed in battle, sooner or later.

Jiang Zifu had thought that Zheng and Shi would send troops to Chaotian Palace since he decided to return to Chaotian Palace, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.Before he could get over the grief of losing his disciple and the villagers of the Yang family, Chaotian Palace had already dealt a terrible blow.

This is war, and a lot of blood will be shed and a lot of people will die.

Jiang Zifu made up his mind, cleared his throat, and exerted his strength, his voice was like thunder, echoing in the hall.

"Today's matter, I'm sorry everyone, we have to send Miss Mo out of the city, a disciple of Chaotian Palace, who has guarded the mausoleum for the Dayu Dynasty for generations, and must not let my real dragon of the Dayu Dynasty fall into the hands of traitors and thieves!"

"The real dragon came to the world, and my Dayu Dynasty finally ushered in another Mingjun. Now it is a prosperous age. Under the guidance of this Mingjun, the Dayu Dynasty will definitely be greater, and the people of the Dayu Dynasty will definitely live a happy life." a happier life."

"There is no displacement, no abandoned orphans."

The disciples of Chaotian Palace have guarded the mausoleum of the royal family all their lives, and most of the selected ones were born as orphans, so they have no worries.

Jiang Zifu suddenly smiled, "It's a pity, it's a pity. We can't see that kind of world anymore, it's a pity."

"Disciples of Chaotian Palace! Formation!"

Jiang Zifu stood up from his seat, his white hair and white eyebrows turned dark in a few blinks, and he grew taller with a radiant face.

This is his last battle. He has exhausted all his efforts and forcibly broke through.

King Kong is not bad, Yaeyama!

The disciples in Chaotian Palace silently formed formations, silently showed their weapons, followed Jiang Zifu's footsteps, and stepped out of the hall.

Ye Shu watched all this quietly, he gripped the Suxue sword tightly, and told Zhang Zhouzhou to protect Li Siyi.

Mo Qingshan was no longer pregnant, they were just ruining their lives for a lie.

So what about lies, they are willing to die for a great dream.

Fighting sound.

At the same time, under the Zijin Mountain, the footsteps were heavy.

Qi Baiyu, Qi Baiyu, and Liu Lingguan rode in front, and all six thousand Han family troops followed behind.

Look up, wolf smoke.
