Kaifeng Monster

Chapter 63: It's Evil and Not Evil (2)
Gao Bojian kept complaining and lingered in front of the funeral tent in Yudu, but he didn't dare to go in.It was Mr. Qiu Shan who came out and bumped into him, and dragged him in angrily.

Yang Jian and Zhu Chang were standing together and whispering something, when they saw Gao Bojian coming in, they nodded at him indifferently.Duanmucui knelt on one knee in front of Yu Du's body, lifted the shroud to examine the body, heard the sound, and turned her head slowly.

Gao Bojian felt two sharp eyes piercing towards Duanmucui, and suddenly remembered Mr. Qiu Shan's narration of Duanmucui's life experience yesterday. I can't speak.

Duanmucui covered the shroud again.Zhuchang took a step forward and handed her his hand, Duanmucui nodded slightly, and stood up with the help of Zhuchang's hand.

Gao Bojian felt that he had to say something.

"Vice Commander Yudu...young and promising...he is really a general...this general hit it off with him..."

"General Gao."

"...It's like old friends at first sight. Brother Yu Du is unfortunately killed this time. This general can't wait to replace him with his own body..."

"General Gao!" Duanmucui's voice became a little impatient.Yang Jian held back his smile, and turned his face slightly away.

"Duan, General Duanmu..." Gao Bojian stammered.

"Where's Yu Du's head?"

"Head..." Gao Bojian's forehead began to seep sweat.

When Yu Du's body was carried back last night, it was indeed headless, and he also jumped for a long time.But if there is nothing, there is nothing, and one cannot be temporarily added.

"Who has such a great hatred against Yu, who even slashes and beheads twice, and wants Yu to die without a whole body?"

"Cough..." Mr. Qiu Shan cleared his throat, and was about to smooth things over, but when he got to the point of speaking, Duanmucui stopped him with a cold glance.

"Head..." Gao Bojian bite the bullet and said, "Vice President Yudu..."

"Report!" The messenger outside the account suddenly said.Gao Bojian was startled, and was about to yell at him when Duanmucui said coldly, "What's the matter?"

"General Gao's servant shot Changcheng begging to see him."

Duanmucui frowned and looked at Gao Bojian.Gao Bojian took two steps towards the tent door, and said angrily, "Is there any important matter to discuss in the tent? No see."

"Pu Shechang said...he knows where the head of Vice President Yudu is."

The Xiqi army came strangely and suddenly, Qi Mu Dian was really unprepared, he was caught off guard, and watched helplessly as a group of wolf-like people entered the room.

Qi Muding also completely lost his usual composure, his face turned pale as Cheng Qi and others rummaged through boxes inside and outside the house, and he smiled sadly at Qi Mudian, his bent torso trembling almost imperceptibly.

The most proud thing is becoming a beggar.

He secretly buried Yudu's head in the backyard of Qimu's house before, and was ordered to search it. Originally, it was just a bluff to search the house, but he didn't expect Qimu's house to be such a huge treasure: not to mention the people who were found. The dagger hidden weapon that ordinary people would never use, and the whole family of Qimu's family can't get rid of the crime just based on the few secret letters that secretly communicated with Chaoge.

Sure enough, the secret letter was delivered to the tent of the Chinese army, not to mention Duanmucui was angry, even the always prudent Yang Jian and Zhuchang were furious.It's no wonder that Prime Minister Jiang Ziya presided over the recent work meeting a few days ago, and also emphasized that the issue of meticulous work is the top priority. Didn't your Qi Mu family commit crimes against the wind, didn't you catch a straight-forward and set up a typical example?
There is nothing else to say, one word: catch!

The order was like a mountain, and Qi Mu's family was immediately surrounded.In any case, there was a death word, Qi Mudian and Qi Muding had the same intentions: go all out and fight!
It's just that the strength of two people is low, and it's not easy to shake the tree. After three or two strokes, they are bound into a twist.

Originally, if Zhan Zhao joined, the battle might have been dragged on for a longer period of time, but it's a pity that Zhan Zhao never drew his sword from the beginning to the end.

Those who know the current affairs are heroes, Zhan Zhaozong, no matter how stupid he is, guessed that the Qi Mu family is not an ordinary family, otherwise, how can they compete with the Xiqi army if they are well-behaved?
Of course, this was not enough for Zhan Zhao to be bound voluntarily. The real reason was that the Xiqi army who surrounded Banner Mu's family unfurled not only the cloak flags of Gao Bojian's camp, but also those of Duanmu camp.

That's fine, whether it's stolen or tied in, it's finally in.

only……

The road is long and long, and being arrested and sent to the barracks does not mean that he will be able to meet the coach.

Zhan Zhao, together with Qimu's family and all the servants of Qimu's family, were all thrown into the dungeon.

After a sleepless night, brothers Qi Mudian and Qi Muding were dragged out to stand trial. When they returned, they were covered in blood and only half their lives remained.Qi Mu Yiluo cried bitterly on his father, Zhan Zhao felt sorry for him, but he couldn't say anything to comfort him.From the sneering words of the cell boss, he more or less guessed the reason for the matter. If he did it carefully, whether it was in Xiqi or in the Northern Song Dynasty, the end would probably be the same.It's just pity for Qi Mu Yiluo, she really doesn't know that her father and second uncle are secret agents, but they are in the same room, entwined with vines, if they want not to be implicated, it is really a dream.

He and Qimu's family finally had some friendship. If he could see Duanmucui, would Duanmu take it for his sake and let Qimu's family survive?

Don't do to others what you don't want done to yourself, he thought he couldn't open his mouth for such a demanding request.Moreover, since Duanmucui is in the position of general, he should understand the responsibility of the general, and the army is especially particular about orders and prohibitions, so how could he be favoritism because of him?
Confused, Zhan Zhao sighed very lightly.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there was the sound of the prison door being opened and the shackles colliding, followed by a young woman's voice: "Come and recognize, who killed Yu Du?"

Zhan Zhao followed the sound and saw a pretty woman in hard clothes walking slowly over, she was talking to the man next to her with her head tilted.Under the light of the flames, Zhan Zhao could see clearly, the man was dressed in a long skirt with a flattering expression on his face, but it was not Cheng Qi who was it?

Zhan Zhao suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, Cheng Qi raised his eyes to look at Zhan Zhao, with a sinister smile on the corner of his lips, and immediately turned into a respectful one, raised his hand and pointed forward: "Miss Ami, that's him!"

Ami hummed, took two steps forward, looked Zhan Zhao up and down, nodded slightly and said, "I thought it was some kind of vicious character, but I didn't expect such a neat and tidy person. It shows that people should not be judged by appearances."

Cheng Qi hurriedly said: "Miss Ami is right. When I first met him, I never thought that he is such a vicious person... When dealing with such a person, Miss Ami must be very careful."

Ami sneered and said, "Why should I be careful! After committing such a serious crime, why should I ask any questions? She should have been dragged out to kill the corpse! It's just that the girl had other thoughts, so she said she wanted to see her."

Cheng Qi smiled and said: "That's right, I also can't figure out what General Duanmu is thinking..."

Before Cheng Qi fiddled in front of Duanmucui and others, and found out Zhan Zhao's crime, he only hoped that Zhan Zhao would be pushed out and beheaded as soon as possible, the most feared thing would be accidents.He couldn't figure out Duanmucui's intention to meet Zhan Zhao, so he was very nervous.

Ladies and gentlemen, don't you have too much hope for Miss Duanmu, do you really think that she knows the details and interrogates carefully before killing, so as not to kill innocent people in vain?

No, she had other plans.

Regarding Duanmucui's plan, Zhuchang couldn't say whether he supported or opposed it.

He looked at the huge copper thorn cage in front of him with great interest. The bars of each wooden cage were as thick as an arm, and were covered with sharp copper thorns.

"Are you really trying to let your deputy generals practice their skills?"

"You don't think it's right?"

"I think you vent your anger more. With six enemies and one, your vice commander is fully armed with a sword and sword, while he is unarmed, Duanmu, this is not training, it is killing."

"He killed Yudu, and he deserved to die. I just chose another way of death for him. Besides, the soldiers of my Duanmu camp are united, and it is reasonable for them to avenge Yudu."

It is indeed reasonable.

Hub Chang didn't say anything anymore, in fact, his attention had already been attracted.

The man brought in by Ami really didn't look like a dejected prisoner, his back was straight, his blue clothes were dusty, but there were no wrinkles, his face was slightly tired, but his eyes were still clear. There is no fear or panic at all, and there is a profoundness that cannot be seen in the peace.If he hadn't known in advance who the visitor was, Zhuchang would have mistaken him for Duanmuying's guest.

But it only took a moment for Zhuchang to notice something strange.

Because Zhan Zhao's gaze has been glued to one place since entering the tent, and never looked away.

There are so many things worthy of his attention in the tent, such as himself stuck in the local area, and the huge copper thorn cage.

In his eyes, everything seemed to be transparent.

Hubchang looked at Zhan Zhao, then looked back at Duanmucui, paused for a moment, then turned back to look at Zhan Zhao again.

He didn't like it, nor was he angry, on the contrary, he found it funny.

Too bad, Huban thought so.

Duanmu will definitely dig out his eyeballs.

Astute and cautious as Zhan Zhao, he soon discovered the abnormality of Duanmucui.

Sometimes, five or even ten years of time can completely change a person, not to mention the distant and long change of 2000 years?
The woman in front of me, apart from the similarity in outline and appearance to the Duanmucui I know, is very different in clothing, attire, gaze, temperament, temperament and other things that cannot be enumerated one by one.

Just the murderous aura exuding from her body and the unconcealed domineering look in her eyes already made Zhan Zhao flinch.

The surprise that could finally be seen before fell very quickly, and the huge loss, astonishment, and panic rushed up like a mountain and a sea.

Could it be that, from the very beginning, he was looking in the wrong direction, and Duanmucui, who fell into the sinking abyss, did not return to Jiang Ziya's side?
In this barracks, has been General Duanmu 2000 years ago?
Zhan Zhao suddenly understood why Wen Guweiyu smiled so strangely when he went to Shenyuan that day...

Someone shoved him hard behind him, Zhan Zhao was caught off guard, staggered and fell into the copper and thorn wooden cage, his half-kneeling knee was heavily pressed against the thorn teeth at the bottom of the wooden cage, and blood gushed out through his clothes in an instant.

Zhan Zhao gritted his teeth and stood up, looking back at Duanmucui with the last trace of luck.

Duanmucui didn't even glance at him, she turned to another direction.

There, six big men with halberds and hammers all over their bodies were eager to try. Only their eyes and noses were exposed on their faces covered by helmets, and their eyes were extremely fierce.

Duanmucui slowly raised her finger to Zhan Zhao, and paused every word: "There is a warrior sent by Chaoge, and his body is covered with the blood of Yudu. Now, I want you to repay this blood debt ten times and a hundred times, and pay for it." return!"

With a sound of Qiqi, the six broad-armed and round-waisted figures rushed into the wooden cage aggressively, and the guards on the side quickly stepped forward and tied the wooden cage door to death with iron chains.

Sunlight penetrated through the gaps in the military tent, and the six people stood shoulder to shoulder to form a wall, covering Zhan Zhao in the shadows.

Through the gap between them shoulder to shoulder, Duanmucui's shadow is clearly reflected in Zhan Zhao's eyes.

"Duanmu," Zhan Zhao suddenly said very calmly, "You really don't know me?"

What responded to him was a sneer on Duanmucui's lips, and at the same time, a papaya copper hammer brought a strong wind and fell on the head.

Ami sighed.

If Zhan Zhao was a vulgar-looking man, she might not feel so sorry, but she couldn't bear the blood spattered on the spot by such an outstanding man.

So she turned her head slightly, and at this moment, she heard the clang of the copper hammer falling to the ground, and the voice of Zhuchang deliberately lowered: "Good skill."

Ami quickly turned his gaze to the inside of the wooden cage, and the soldier who was the first to attack Zhan Zhao took two steps back, stroking his wrist, and let out a low growl like a wounded beast from the bottom of his throat.Ami couldn't see Zhan Zhao's figure clearly, because at that moment, the other five soldiers and guards had rushed forward, halberds, forks, spears, axes, and battle-axes, all directions, mercilessly.

It's hard to tell how long it took, and there was another low chirp, and a spear flew out.Coincidentally, it landed not far from Duanmucui, and the spear-wielding guard slammed into the side of the wooden cage heavily, and the copper thorn teeth pierced hard into his back.The soldier guard was also stubborn, without saying a word, he stood up, and the row of copper thorns suddenly turned red.

Duanmucui's complexion became more and more ugly.Hub Chang took a step forward, put his arm on her shoulder lightly, and said in a low voice: "The one who can kill Yu Du must be a good player."

Duanmucui didn't make a sound, just for a moment, but saw Zhan Zhao's figure soaring into the sky like a crane, spinning like lightning in mid-air, his kicks were continuous, and two more guards flew out, one on the left and one on the right.Duanmucui had a thought, stepped forward and shouted: "Stop."

During the fierce fight, Zhan Zhao heard Duanmucui's voice for the first time, his whole body trembled, he forgot where he was, and he stopped naturally, before he could stand still, he suddenly felt a severe pain in his back, but it was the man holding the ax Bingwei's eyes were red, and he couldn't stop, and the ax blade slashed Zhan Zhao's back fiercely.If it wasn't for Zhan Zhao's extremely quick reaction and quick mobilization of internal force to eject, it's unknown that the blow hurt his heart and lungs.

Even if it was a flesh wound, the blood soaked through the heavy clothes in a moment, Zhan Zhao didn't say a word, he stretched out his hand and tore off a large piece from the skirt, folded it slightly, then tied the wound tightly, and tied a knot in front of him.Duanmucui strode over, casually untied the chain spear from her waist, and using the chain as a whip, passed through the wooden cage and lashed heavily at the guard.This blow was very powerful, the soldier was pulled back a few steps, but he could see that he had been trained very strictly on weekdays, so he immediately straightened his back, walked back to the original position with a few steps, and did not move at all.

Duanmucui said angrily: "I said stop, but did you listen? Don't you listen to my orders when you march in the army on weekdays?" While speaking, he raised his hand and gave another whip.

The soldier gave a snort, and received another whip abruptly.

Duanmucui was going to give him a few more notes, but she was unreasonably soft-hearted—she was not in vain in the name of protecting his shortcomings, she just frowned, and signaled to the people in the cage: "Come out."

The guard next to him hurried forward to open the door of the wooden cage, and Duanmucui ordered: "Give him a knife."

After a pause, he looked at Ami again: "Ami, go in and try his sword skills."

Ami was taken aback, and blurted out by accident, "General, he is injured!"

Duanmucui showed a look of surprise, Ami saved herself from saying something she shouldn't have said, her face was as hot as a fire in an instant, and without saying a word, she pulled out the simple knife from her waist and entered the wooden cage.

Zhan Zhao took the knife handed in from outside the cage, and made a saber gesture.Although he is not good at using swords, martial arts all over the world come from the same principles, and it is not difficult to control sword moves with a sword after he has practiced to the point of proficiency.

Duanmucui took two steps back, Zhuchang slightly lowered his head, and said softly: "This man is very skilled, whether he is in Xiqi or Chaoge, he is worthy of worship."

Duanmu Cui hummed, and said in a low voice, "You think I can't see it?"

"Then let Ami try out tricks with him?"

Duanmucui smiled slightly, and when she was about to say something, she cast her gaze into the wooden cage suddenly, her face became serious, and she signaled to Zhuchang to concentrate on watching the battle and not to ask any more questions.

Ami is a master at wielding a sword.

At least, in Duanmu Camp, there are very few swordsmen who can surpass Ami.

Zhan Zhao smiled faintly, and slowly raised the knife, blood dripped from the edge of his clothes, and gradually gathered into a puddle at his feet.

Ami's gaze stayed on the pool of blood very quickly, gritted his teeth, and swung the knife out. The blade drew a flash of light, and went straight to Zhan Zhao's neck.

Zhan Zhao's figure was extremely fast, he dodged sideways, and pressed the back of the knife against the blade's edge.Due to the situation, Ami changed his move, the blade turned up and cut towards Zhan Zhao's waist.Zhan Zhao was not slow to catch it, the horizontal saber turned into a vertical shield, the two sabers struck each other, the sound of gold and stone continued, and there were hidden sparks bursting out.

In the first round, neither win nor lose.

Duanmucui remained calm, her eyelashes drooped suddenly, and she said softly: "Damn girl, you haven't used all your strength."

Zhuchang couldn't help laughing out loud, and leaned into Duanmucui's ear: "Yudu beheaded with two swords, and the marks and teeth were wrong, which shows that the murderer is not skilled in swordsmanship. This person has excellent skills and good swordsmanship, so it shouldn't be The murderer who killed Yudu."

Duanmu Cuibai glanced at Huchang: "I want you to tell me!"

"Since you've already seen it, they..." Zhu Chang pointed to the cage with his eyes, "Do you still want to fight?"

"Why don't you fight?" Duanmucui smiled meaningfully, "Girl Ami, she's keeping tricks everywhere today... Let's see what she thinks and what she plays."

While speaking, the second round between Ami and Zhan Zhao had already been fought.
