The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 656 Trap

It was night, the palace was brightly lit, and the number of guards patrolling nearly doubled. Teams of neatly dressed soldiers shuttled back and forth throughout the palace, and even the most inconspicuous corners were guarded by special personnel.

The appearance of disappearing out of thin air performed by the Feng Shui master during the day was really amazing. Although Li Shimin said that he was not worried, the layout of the palace was not worse than that of the Xuanwu Gate.

After midnight, most of the people in the palace had gone to bed except for the imperial guards who were still on patrol. The huge palace was like a giant beast from ancient times, crawling in the dark night.

Time passed little by little, and as the eastern morning star gradually rose, it seemed that Chang'an City would usher in a new day in half an hour.

At this moment of silence, a shadow, like a piece of paper, fell strangely on the palace wall of Da'an Palace. When it was close to the ground, it suddenly turned over and landed on the ground lightly like a civet cat. A pair of dark eyes He stared at the imperial guard who was facing away from him less than five steps ahead.

The imperial guard held a spear in his hand and scanned his surroundings intently. Although he had been guarding here all night, there was no slack in his eyes.

However, the movement of the shadow behind him was too light, as light as a leaf falling from a tree, a fluttering goose feather, or a snowflake falling from the sky, no matter how concentrated he was, he still didn't notice the strangeness behind him.

After the shadow fell from the wall, he lay on the ground like a gecko, the muscles on his body tensed, until he realized that the imperial guards hadn't noticed him, then he moved his limbs lightly and slowly moved.

However, the movement of the shadow is really weird, because if you look carefully, you will find that his movements are completely illogical. You can only see that his two arms are propped up at a right angle from the elbow, while his two legs are widely spread. Every time you move, the movement of the legs is huge.

This is completely inconsistent with the principles of ergonomics, because human hip joints and knee joints are not universal wheels, and they cannot be bent at will, which means that no matter how hard you try, it is impossible to really crawl like a lizard.

However, the shadow did it, and it seemed that it didn't take much effort. It didn't take long for it to reach the back of a gorgeous palace, and it turned over and stuck to the wall again.

Then I saw a group of heavily armed guards walking past him, and some people even glanced at his position, but in the end they turned a blind eye and passed by.

The powerful camouflage ability, combined with the excellent mobility, made the shadow in the palace as if it were uninhabited.

After the imperial army passed by, the shadow moved again. I saw him fiddle with the window a few times, and somehow the rear window was opened by him. After that, no matter how hard he tried, the person had already slipped in. In the room, I haven't forgotten to close the windows at the end.

Two candles were lit inside the room, and the two little maids were dozing off at the door. The shadows hid behind the screen and looked around vigilantly. Without even looking, he drew a short knife from behind and stabbed the neck of the old man lying on the bed.

With a sound of 'bang', the shadow's hand holding the knife was directly bounced up, and at the same time a series of 'jingle' bells sounded both inside and outside the room.

be cheated!In an instant, the shadow seemed to realize something, turned over and wanted to leave, but it was too late, the door of the room had already been pushed open, and Li Muyun's voice came faintly: "Since you are here, don't leave."

Shadow stared at Li Muyun, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and blurted out: "Li Muyun? You shouldn't..."

Li Muyun slowly entered the room, and someone behind him gently closed the door, only him and Shadow were left in the room, in the silence, he said slowly: "You think I should look for you outside the palace, right? ?”

Shadow looked at the knife in his hand, then at Li Muyun: "How did you think I would be here?"

Li Muyun shook his head: "It's already at this time, take off the scarf, let me see who is the person who is plotting against me, and who are your accomplices in the palace, it is best to also say gone."

Shadow seemed a little excited, and ignored Li Muyun's question, instead he shouted more directly: "Answer my question!"

Li Muyun shrugged helplessly, found a chair and sat down and said, "I am Daozu, you are fish, what right do you have to challenge me? Even if you have the ability to kill me, do you still have the ability to escape from this palace?"

Shadow was lucky at this time, staring at Li Muyun for a while, and then said word by word after a long while: "Yes, I admit that I made a mistake this time, but why do you think I can't kill you!"

Li Muyun curled her lips: "There are many people who want to kill me in this world, but... forget it, it doesn't make any sense to say this now, you should talk about your accomplices, it doesn't matter if you say it to me or you. There are benefits."

Shadow weighed the knife in his hand: "What if I don't tell?"

Li Muyun stood up slowly, and approached the shadow step by step: "Then let's see the real chapter under my hand. After killing you, I believe I can still get a lot of things I want to know from you."

Shadow's eyes turned cold: "Then you have a try." After the voice fell, the dagger in his hand was already slashing towards Li Muyun's head like a prick.

The knife is a good knife, and it shines coldly under the candlelight, but if it can't hit the opponent, everything is useless.

At the moment when the knife in Shadow's hand slashed, Li Muyun had already crossed his hands to support his wrists, and at the same time, he swung his right hand to lock his veins.

But before Li Muyun took advantage of the situation to fold the shadow's hand behind his back, a cold light flashed again from the corner of his eye, but the shadow's left hand had already been unknowingly handed over to him, with several sharp thorns between his fingers like sharp beasts. Claws, thrusting straight towards his face.

In the blink of an eye, Li Muyun didn't have time to think about it. He let go of his right hand and fell straight backwards. At the same time, he lifted his right leg up and kicked the shadow's left wrist, but in the end, the shadow dodged it backwards.

With just one face-to-face, Li Muyun was almost completely taken down by his opponent, and he couldn't be careless under the danger. When he fell to the ground and turned back, he already had an extra military stab and a saber in his hands.

The shadow didn't say anything else, and as soon as he retreated, he rushed up to Li Muyun again like lightning, and when he was about to stand up, the short knife in his hand had already slashed towards his shoulder obliquely.

Li Muyun just used his strength at this time, and his body couldn't stop due to inertia. Facing the slanted knife, he could only stick it on his forearm, and fought hard, the saber in his right hand slashed at the opponent's throat. .

Regardless of whether it was Li Muyun or the shadow, a series of attacks did not leave the other party any room at all. The moves were all killers. When the two separated again, a piece of flesh had been cut off Li Muyun's shoulder, and the shadow There was also a line of blood left on his abdomen.

But the two sides obviously didn't intend to stop at this point. After stopping, no one looked at their injuries, and fought together again.

An inch long, an inch strong; an inch short, an inch dangerous.

No matter whether it is Li Muyun or Shadow, they all use short knives in both hands. When they fight, they are almost face to face. Any defense or parry is bullshit.

You stab my neck with a knife, and I poke your eyes. If you can dodge, you will dodge. If you do not dodge, you will use your body to resist. After a while, the bodies of the two of them have been covered with blood, and the moves are not as fierce as before. .

With a 'bang', the shadow and Li Muyun collided again, and the knives rubbed against each other, making an ear-piercing sound.

During the wrestling between the two sides, the shadow said in a dry voice: "Li Muyun, I have to admit that I have indeed underestimated you, but it is not lonely to have someone like you on the Naihe bridge."

"Sorry, you're thinking too much." Li Muyun's expression was calm, as if the wounds on his body belonged to someone else.

"Are you thinking too much? You'll know in a while." Shadow gritted his teeth, and pushed Li Muyun away forcefully. He took two steps back and was about to charge up again, but he stopped after taking a step, and said in an extremely unwilling tone. : "Li Muyun, you, you are still hiding something behind."

"Of course, if you don't have a backup, do you think I will come in alone to fight you to death?" Li Muyun pouted, turned and leaned on the table beside him.

"You..." Shadow, in the middle of speaking, shook his body, as if he was a little unsteady on his feet.

"Don't worry, the knife is just coated with some anesthetic, it won't kill you." Li Muyun had already retracted the knife, and said calmly while looking at the wound on his body.

The dizziness became more and more severe, and finally the shadow couldn't stand up, and staggered and fell down. Before losing consciousness, those venomous eyes fixed on Li Muyun.

But Li Muyun wasn't even afraid of the jumping shadow, let alone the guy who had no strength to resist, he staggered forward with a disdainful smile, and pulled the veil off his face.

The face under the scarf made Li Muyun pale with shock, and blurted out: "Quan Gai Su Wen? You didn't die?"

But Quan Gai Suwen had no way to answer him anymore, the anesthetic's effect gradually took effect, and his person had completely passed out.

At this moment, Li Muyun couldn't hold on any longer, he sat down on the ground, panting heavily, and even lost the strength to notify outsiders to come in.

His previous career as a killer has tempered his strong will, and even in the case of excessive blood loss, he can still guarantee [-]% of his combat effectiveness under normal circumstances.

But at this time, after all, the dust has settled, and there is no point in persevering any longer. After his spirit relaxed, Li Muyun also fell down. Before he fell into a complete coma, he finally understood why this person kept framing him, why he put all the things in his hands. It's all so complicated.
