Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 652
But on the edge of the official road called Chongming Avenue, among the temples in the middle of the mountain with winding stone steps, there is a tragic scene of fireworks billowing and corpses strewn all over the ground.Under the ravages of swarms of gray-clothed falcons, only the Buddhist scripture pavilion carved out of the depression on the mountain wall behind the temple is still resisting.

In the Sutra Pavilion, Mrs. Rong Hua's Mrs. Shen is still commanding calmly. There are only a dozen retinues and guards; using the narrow terrain and piled up furnishings, they will kill and force back the thieves who invaded again. Go out; however, her real mood is getting colder and snowier.

As the empress dowager Yao and Shun who was old and vigorous, but always able to dominate the government and the public, her experience from being a palace official to a female official, and then to a middle- and lower-rank female official; gave her a vision and experience that ordinary wealthy families can't match. ; but under the calmness is more crisis.

You know, after Lanxi Mansion encountered something suspected of being haunted by accident; she just decided to go to Guangshan Temple at the junction of Dongning Mansion and Taiping Prefecture to visit the old friend and client Elder Shanjing who was entrusted to her in the past, and wanted to find this hidden ghost. A certain interpretation and enlightenment of Xiu Dade;
However, to her surprise, when she arrived at Guangshan Temple, she received the news that Elder Shanjing passed away not long ago.Therefore, when she voluntarily went to hang sacrifices and make offerings, Elder Shanjing's spiritual pagoda suddenly changed; disguised monks and thieves in the temple cooperated with each other to launch an attack.

Trapped in the main hall, she counted the people, only to find that Cuiwen, one of her female officers, had disappeared in the chaos; then she found the body of another female officer, Cuiping, under the incense case at the back of the hall; after inspection, she She was caught off guard and pierced in the chest by someone close to her.

Immediately afterwards, the third female official who accompanied her was also caught by those thieves and stripped into a white sheep, and humiliated in public; until she shot an arrow with her own hands, she completely relieved the other party's torture and pain.And this means that there are always thieves' eyeliner around her, and they have been waiting in Guangshan Temple for a long time.

On the big island of Yizhou, there were actually some people who dared to gather a crowd to attack the female relatives of the contemporary government; this was too appalling, and it made her feel inexplicably sad.Because from the most basic interest demands, it can almost be guessed directly that there may be a range of black hands behind the scenes.

After the head of the contemporary princess has been ill for a long time, the one in the family is more and more unscrupulous, even if she stays away, she still refuses to let her go; Do you want to destroy face and send out all the troops to kill them all?

It's just that the other party showed promise, and forced him to flee to the Buddhist scripture pavilion in the cave in the back mountain. He didn't continue to set fire in the temple, or use other persecution methods such as smoking; Bo rushed forward, trying to consume the last of the guards around her.

In other words, after she took advantage of the situation and gave up most of the power and resources in the back office, the most valuable thing left was her own.Does that person still have an ulterior rebellious heart towards himself?Thinking of this, Shen's eyes showed determination and touched the hairpin on his head.

She sighed secretly, at least she would never give the other party a chance to shame the office and family.In a short thought, the voice resounding outside suddenly turned into screams one after another; immediately after, the captain guarding the blood-stained armor in front of the door said in a hoarse voice:

"Ma'am, it seems that reinforcements are approaching."

As his words fell, Shen also moved to the opening of the stone cave of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion; and saw a man in brown clothes with armor inlaid with leather helmets and a banner with water patterns on a blue background, rushing into the bloody and crowded ground. In the temple of fireworks.The leader was Cang Xing, one of the twin servants who had been sent out to ask for help.

I saw her leading a handsome general with a broad forehead to within the range of arrows in the Sutra Storage Pavilion in the Stone Cave; she shouted loudly: "Madam, don't be alarmed; this is from Dongshan Town, Shenguan Lieutenant Chen of the garrison; happened to be leading troops on business in Lilin County; upon hearing the news, he came with his maidservant..."

At the same time, on the cliff on the side of the mountain temple, Jiang Tian also looked at the noisy scene with a slightly strange expression on his face.As for one of the twin maids in loose men's clothes, Cui Xing was lying on the ground retching with drooling, with a lost face after a game was broken.

After all, Jiang Tian was like a kitten being hanged all the way. While jumping up and down in the air and walking like flying, it also made her suffer all kinds of hardships; she even suffered from motion sickness halfway.However, she was impatient and trying to be brave, so it would be good if she refused to stop and rest for a while.

"The reinforcements have finally arrived. Isn't Madam saved?" After she got up, she couldn't help crying with joy, then looked at Jiang Tian with a slight movement of her eyes and said, "Thank you for your help, but since you have already come, please come with me to meet me Madam, I will give you enough reward."

"Not necessarily!" Jiang Tian shook his head slightly at her, which also surprised her. Could it be that the other party still refused to let her go? "Have you ever seen reinforcements who can't wait to kill and make amends as soon as they come up, leaving no survivors; and they happen to be the foreign troops you met halfway?"

At the same time, a small group of blood-stained robes and wounded guards came out of the stone cave where the Sutra Pavilion was located; and two lines of guards formed at the entrance of the cave shouted to the outside: "Madam, please invite Captain Chen to come in and speak."

"Dare not to follow orders!" The Captain Chen also quickly stretched out his hand to salute, and at the same time shouted loudly to a kind of soldier behind him: "You stay here, don't do anything rash, so as not to disturb Madam! I'll go Come and go..."

However, when Cang Xing, the maid in the green skirt, led the Captain Chen into it, he saw Mrs. Rong Hua standing on the stairs with only one female officer; Cang Xing, the maid who was dodging the supplies beside him, knocked her into the air with a wailing sound.

And the group of sergeants waiting outside suddenly launched an attack in no time.The front row of them suddenly crouched on the ground, revealing a group of wings armed with crossbows who were hidden in it. Almost a hundred flying arrows burst out like a rain of arrows when they met each other; the guards were inescapably crucified.

There was only one person behind who was wounded, and fled into the cave in a staggered manner to warn him; but he saw his companion and servant who had already fallen to the ground.Then, he was slashed on the face by a sneak attack from the side, and immediately burst into a depression and died on the spot.Chen Xiaowei, who appeared, took a stroll in the courtyard and kicked his feet.

Cang Xing, the maid who got up secretly on the ground, screamed again and flew into the stone wall, suddenly protruding a big mouthful of blood; but she leaned against the wall with a dispirited look and couldn't get up.During this gap, Mrs. Rong Hua was surrounded by the remaining two guards and female officers, and fled upstairs.

At the same time, I saw the corpses of the guards lying on the ground outside the cave with my own eyes, and their bodies were full of arrows.Cuixing, the maid beside Jiang Tian, ​​also widened her eyes, and then suddenly tore off her loose men's clothing, revealing her delicate body with pink makeup and jade decoration, and hugged him, crying:

"I beg you, please do me a favor; as long as you can save my wife from danger, you can do whatever you want to me! I can also ask my wife to promise you all the sisters who are born like me, like a cow and a horse." Repay for the rest of my life..." At this moment, she seemed to be grasping the last straw.

And within the cave, Shen Shi, who has been forced to the third floor of the Sutra Pavilion in the cave, can only watch with a gloomy expression. Wei slapped it down with one palm.Then she looked at the guards with her eyes, and the last two guards motioned.

I saw one of them, who was a little younger, resolutely pulled out his saber with a face full of grief and indignation; it crossed her jade neck that was trying to straighten; it just dragged back hard.However, Leng might as well stab his ribs from the side and back with another horizontal knife, and he fell to the ground dumbfounded with only a bloodstain.

But it was another older guard who sneaked up on him from behind at the same time; after twisting and pulling, he died with a twisted face.And Mrs. Rong Hua couldn't help shouting: "Shen Qiquan, how dare you...why?" At the same time, she pulled out the hairpin calmly and clasped it in her hand.

"Be careful, she's going to kill herself." Then she was caught by the guard named Shen Qiquan, lifted her up forcefully, and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, Ma'am, although it's your future and opportunity to support me, but I'm just a collateral child, they can give more."

Then, his face was smacked with a clear and loud ear; but he grabbed her other hand and said: "In that case, please forgive me for being rude.".However, at the next moment, he was punched unexpectedly, screamed and fell flying out; it was Captain Chen who walked upstairs and suddenly shot:
"You are no longer useful, but what are you still wishing for?" Before the words were finished, guard Shen Qiquan exclaimed shortly, and slammed into the stone wall downstairs with a thump, blood spattering and lying on the spot.And more soldiers also rushed into the building upon hearing the sound, and began to search the scene.

"Chen Wenxuan, by the order of the lord, visit Mrs. Ronghua." At this time, Chen Xiaowei said to Shen who was forced to the side of the stone wall: "Please obediently follow me to avoid accidents. something unbearable; it's not decent enough for each other."

"Actually, you are the person from the Shadow Chasing Office, right? See how hypocritical you are?" However, at this moment, Mrs. Shen asked calmly and nonchalantly, "Unexpectedly, you who have always been hiding in the dark have also taken refuge in that person." , are you sure that the public really can't see things?"

"Madam is really perceptive, but it's a pity that it won't help." Captain Chen smirked more and more: "If Madam's vigilance was not too high, or her resistance was too strong, we would not have come to this point..." Immediately, he suddenly turned around and shouted fiercely towards the downstairs:

"Men are all killed, and women are up to you, but at least leave a whole body." Then, the soldiers shouted happily, and then hurriedly dragged the body out, leaving only Those few surviving women including Cang Xing...

At the same time, Jiang Tian smelled the faint fishy smell coming from the wind in the distance, and suddenly showed a playful expression and said: "It seems that all the guests have arrived, and this table of good food can be officially served." The next moment He turned down the cliff headlong, and rose up against the wind amidst the girl's exclamation and horrified eyes.
