Cheng Zongyang leaned over and wanted to pull Yanxiang up, but suddenly he felt a warning. When his body was desperately slanted, a dagger flew over the neck, and the bent snake-like blade hit the bluestone on the stairs, splashing a piece of stone chips, and then a tall figure crossed the earth wall. He was wearing black clothes and an iron-cast mask on his face, like a murderous demon god, swinging his sword to slash Cheng Zongyang.
Before Cheng Zongyang could stand firm, he reached into his arms with one hand, lifted out the coral dagger, turned his body and sank on the long sword arm, and a stream of true energy surged in. Cheng Zongyang instantly estimated the opponent's cultivation, removed the strength in a slanted body, and threw it out like an iron whip on his left leg, kicking it under the man's ribs.
With a muffled sound from the tent, the big man shook his body, and the long sword he swung to one side, slashing the unconscious man below the steps in the waist
The flesh and blood flew across the river, Cheng Zongyang hugged Yanxiang and rolled away, avoiding the range of the blade.
The figures on the wall swayed, and the men in black wearing iron masks jumped into the hospital one after another. The men in black remained silent, exuding a murderous aura. It was obvious that Zhu Anshi, a desperate man with many lives, was just an ordinary martial artist, but he was chopped down in a few moves and fell to the ground.
Don't kill him! A man in black stopped his companion and said: Where did Zhu Anshi go?
The man's legs were covered with blood, but his expression was not afraid.
The man in black said: As long as you say it, you will immediately reward one million yuan! Become a member of the Yulin Tianjun!
The man laughed loudly, "Is someone a greedy person for wealth?" He tore open his shirt, exposed his strong chest, then stood up, held a knife and shouted: Life and death! Life and death!
The man in black rushed forward, and the sword lights intertwined, and a sharp long sword slashed into his head, split his chest, cut off his arms, and cut his lower abdomen. However, the man did not retreat at all until he was dismembered by a knife.
Cheng Zongyang had already seen that there were six men in black who rushed in. Four of them had leopard-shaped masks. The strongest man and the man in black with a mouth were cast on the masks. The two of them were also the two with the highest cultivation level and had a chance to win alone. If they were the same as the two, they would probably lose all six people, and they would definitely be dead.
The man in black in the black lifted his sword and pointed at Cheng Zongyang, and said in a cold voice: Where is Zhu Anshi?
Cheng Zongyang smiled bitterly and said: I said I was a passing man, do you believe it?
The man in black snorted coldly, and his palm holding the knife slowly tightened
Wait! Cheng Zongyang suddenly spoke when they were about to take action. Does the bounty you just mentioned count?
Tell Zhu Anshi's whereabouts, give him a reward of one million yuan, and be appointed as the Yulin Tianjun!
Hey, Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Do you know that your words leaked a lot of information Ah? You will be rewarded with millions of dollars as soon as you open your mouth. Even in Luodu, where kings and nobles gather, there are not many families who are appointed as the Yulin Tianjun. If I remember correctly, the Yulin Tianjun is personally in charge of General Huo, and can promise casually. The family background and status of your family head is not ordinary, rich, noble, and able to support retainers. The identity of your family head is almost out of reach, right?
The courtyard was so quiet that the needle fell down. After a moment, the man in black sneered and took off his mask. What's the point of telling you? Our lord is the Marquis of Lu, Xiangyi!
The Queen Mother of Xiangyi, Lu Ji, the brother of the Queen Mother of Yingyang, and the Queen Mother's brother, according to the tradition of the Han Dynasty, this famous relative of the foreign ministers will be the best candidate for the Grand Sima General, and it is also the leader of the ministers after Huo Zimeng. No wonder he dared to be so arrogant and came directly to the door.
Cheng Zongyang said: When did Daxia Zhu offend the Marquis of Xiangyi? He wanted to kill all the people?
Isn’t it enough for Zhu Anshi to commit illegal activities, to privately hide prisoners, and to sell stolen goods?
Are you wrong? Cheng Zongyang said: Even if you are right, the government should come forward and you are just a slave to the Marquis of Xiangyi. Do you think you are the government?
The majestic man said in a deep voice: Stop talking nonsense! Kill him!
Zhu Anshi and I have nothing to do with me, I am just passing by. Cheng Zongyang shouted: As long as you are polite, I will leave with my companions now!
The man in black in the head said: Are you her companion?
Yes, we have been childhood sweethearts
Several men in black looked at each other, as if they didn't understand what he meant, the man in black in the end raised his hand and showed a jade pendant. Where did the jade pendant come from?
It was a jade pendant carved into a concentric style. The lustered jade seemed to shine under the night. This kind of top-quality mutton fat jade was rare. Cheng Zongyang recognized it at a glance. This jade pendant had the same texture as the mandarin duck jade pendant he picked up, and it was even probably from the hands of the same craftsman.
Cheng Zongyang thought of it and said: I picked it up.
Where did you pick it up?
On the banks of the Yi River
when?
Five days ago Cheng Zongyang said: It was on a damaged carriage
The man in black in the head showed a cruel and playful look in his eyes, and then he smiled. You were lucky and continued to shout: Kill him!
Two men in black wearing iron masks snatched silently from Cheng Zongyang's toes, held an abandoned long sword in his hand, then soared into the air, and slashed straight towards the top of the two of them with a compelling aura.
Seeing that the young man showed this move, the man in black was a little surprised. Even among the disciples of Xiangyi Marquis, there would never be too many strong people with level five cultivation. This man was much younger than other famous masters.
The two men in black suddenly separated, rolled up like a sword light, slashing at his legs, Cheng Zongyang was in mid-air, and a tiger was squatting in the sky. The sword light suddenly shot out, forcing the two of them away, then provoked the long sword from below, swung the long sword of the man in black on the right halfway, and then kicked him under his elbow.
The man in black didn't expect that he looked not amazing, but his sword technique was so powerful. He accidentally let out the long sword and then a sharp pain in his chest. The sharp blade tear opens the muscles in his chest like a tiger's teeth, and breaks his sternum.
The man in black fell to the ground with blood splashed. Cheng Zongyang rushed forward, grabbed the flying long sword with his left hand, and steadily caught the flying long sword in his hand. Cheng Zongyang was like a tiger with wings. The two swords defended left and attacked right, killing another man in black backwards repeatedly
More than ten moves passed in an instant, and suddenly Cheng Zongyang used his swords together. While the man in black had no time to return to defense, a tiger roared and thunder crossed and struck him with a loud noise. The man in black's iron mask seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, sunken, and his neck was broken and he broke back, and two streams of blood burst out from his eyes.
Cheng Zongyang often mingled with the strong men of Xingyue Lake, which easily makes people ignore that he has stepped into the fifth level of sitting and taking photos. He is not inferior to the ordinary martial arts heroes. At this time, both sides fight quickly. In just a few breaths, two men in black were killed, so fast that they almost didn't have time to react.
The man like a god of killing finally took action. With the long sword, the air around him seemed to be rolled up by a blade, and a rush of energy was brought into the flat ground.
Cheng Zongyang was very calm. Although this guy was full of momentum, he could let go but not stop. Even if his swordsmanship was better than him, he was very limited.
However, the opponent obviously did not intend to decide one-on-one with him. The other three men in black spread out at the same time and attacked Cheng Zongyang together to join the battle group. Cheng Zongyang suddenly felt the pressure. The man's sword technique was very strange. He had very few chopping techniques, but he used more stabs, which made it very difficult to block the frame.
Cheng Zongyang never showed off his strength and was about to suffer a loss. He immediately summoned someone to help the war and did not show his body. A sharp thorn shot quietly against the ground, penetrated the ankle of a man in black.
Don't panic! The man in black in the lead shouted, then suddenly blew his sword, slashed another eyebrow to the ground, and then killed him in the dark
Cheng Zongyang lost a strong enemy and finally stabilized his position. However, he knew Jingli's cultivation level. He was a little worse than the man in black. Now that Yuanyin has not yet recovered, it is good to be able to protect himself. The three opponents in front of him still need to solve them by themselves.
The sound of swords sounded in succession, and Cheng Zongyang retreated step by step under the siege of the three. Suddenly, he staggered and sat down. The empty door on his chest showed such an opportunity. No opponent would miss it. The strong man wearing a tiger mask had attacked very tightly. Seeing this, he immediately flew up and slashed Cheng Zongyang's chest with a long sword.
Cheng Zongyang suddenly smiled, flipped his body to the side, kicked the sack behind him, revealing a dark and deep well mouth below.
The big man roared, and the long sword turned from bottom to sweep, trying to avoid the wellhead, but Cheng Zongyang had been guarding against his move, pushing the knife to the tip of his knife, and using skill to lead his offensive to one side. The big man was originally about a foot away from the wellhead, but was led by Cheng Zongyang, but instead changed direction, drilling into the wellhead like he was thrown into the well, and he had no way to borrow strength in the air. It was too late to try to change his moves. As he cursed, his whole body seemed to disappear out of thin air, and he fell into the well with his knife.
The remaining two men in black had a different cultivation level. One of them was shot and had no way to use the footwork, which meant he could only be beaten. He wanted to drag his injured leg and chop Cheng Zongyang with a knife. Cheng Zongyang threw him aside and chased him to the other man in black. He made three moves in a row, then turned around and slashed into the well at the same time.
While the gold and iron clashed, the big man's scolding sounded again, but as soon as he jumped to the wellhead, he was chopped back by two swords and killed him. Cheng Zongyang didn't have time to turn around, so he looked at Eagle Yang with a tiger's move, and provoked back like an eagle wing, opening the attack grid of two men in black.
Cheng Zongyang ignored the injured man in black and stared at the other person forcing attack. He turned around twice in the middle to seal the wellhead, trapping the man underground. His attack became more and more urgent. His two swords were full of wind, and the ferocity and courage of the Five Tigers Broken Door Knife was fully displayed, and the sword light rolled out, like a duck driving the man in black and circling the wellhead. Although the man in black was still resisting, he had been suppressed by Cheng Zongyang. It was only a matter of time before he died. Another man in black was injured in his ankle. He couldn't even get into it if he wanted to help. He could only follow behind the buttocks of the two.
Cheng Zongyang roared wildly, and the two swords were released again. The left sword flew across the head, and the right sword slashed the man in black backed back desperately, but he tripped the edge of the well like Cheng Zongyang, and his butt sank and fell into the wellhead.
Cheng Zongyang raised his sword and stabbed the man's chest and abdomen. At this moment, his dantian suddenly shook and a mouthful of blood spurted out. The two swords stabbed half of it, and the true energy had dissipated. In the end, he only stabbed the man on the shoulder.
The man in black escaped from death and immediately fought back. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden burst of pain under him. Half of his body sitting at the wellhead was cut open by a long sword.
The man underground could not see the situation outside at all. He shattered the object blocking the wellhead no matter how many times he was. However, his rush was blocked again this time, and he could only fall back to the bottom of the well without any means.
The injured man in black looked at his companion suddenly with blood and his limbs flying, almost frightened. After a while, he realized that the young man was not in a state of mind and his back was kneeling beside the well, half of his body was stained with blood, but he did not move. He staggered over with courage, while raising the knife to the back of his neck.
The man was lying beside the well without any movement. The man in black became more and more courageous. The long sword slashed the man's body and barely tilted. Then a ball of sword light burst out from the wellhead, fighting with the man in black, and then a series of big scoldings.
The man in black shook his arm and staggered, half kneeling on the ground, he didn't bother to complain about this misunderstanding, raised his knife again and aimed at his opponent who was close to him.
The young man turned over and spit out a mouthful of blood, which made his head and face full of men in black angry and happy. The blade flashed with a cold light and slashed towards his chest.
Suddenly, a cold chill came from the lower abdomen. In an instant, the blood and blood in the body seemed to be frozen. The man in black lowered his eyes in surprise. He saw that there was a strange dagger in his hand, which was stabbing in his dantian.
The man in black widened his eyes in disbelief, his body slowly tilted to the side, and then the knife light at the wellhead rose again, chopping his head away half of the man fell back to the bottom of the well, but all the obstacles were killed, and no one could stop him again the next time.
More than a dozen corpses staggered at the wellhead, which made the man closer to the wellhead than he imagined. He rose up again with a huge anger. He swung his sword around the wellhead without encountering any obstacles. He immediately spread his arms and climbed the edge of the well.
Just as my palm was pulled down the bluestone at the wellhead, a short sword passed through the moonlight and cut it heavily, and a few fingers flew up with blood.
A shrill scream sounded from the well. The poppy woman who had just arrived licked the corners of her lips, revealing a bloodthirsty smile, and then went to kill a man in black who was fighting with Jingli.
Cheng Zongyang's eyes were closed, and the dead energy that could not be seen by the naked eye rushed from all directions, and the spring water flowed into the Dantian.
Within half an hour, more than twenty people died in this courtyard. A large amount of death energy caused severe pain in Cheng Zongyang's dantian, and also pulled him back from the edge of death. He tried his best to maintain the nearly collapsed qi wheel, constantly transforming the death energy into life-saving vitality, and transporting the scattered retrograde qi and blood into the dantian one by one.
The two servants joined forces to kill the man in black in the leader, adding a bit of blood to the courtyard under the moon. The last big man was trapped in the well without any movement for a long time.
The poppy woman picked up a long knife, and her energy penetrated into the blade, threw it hard into the well. With a jingle, the long knife was lifted and hit the wall of the well.
Cheng Zongyang suddenly said: Don’t kill him...
The subordinates of the Xiangyi Marquis were mostly insiders, and the news he mentioned was more important than his life
The poppy girl stopped and laughed loudly from the well. The laughter came from the well and became muffled, and then a strong sense of death surged into the sky.
Cheng Zongyang cursed in his heart, these damn dead soldiers are all crazy people who are desperate! The man was trapped in the underground and knew that he was unlucky and would commit suicide immediately without waiting for them to take action.
Apart from their master and slave, Yanxiang became the only survivor. The blood everywhere did not make her coma. However, her face was pale and bloodless, and her eyes were full of fear.
Poppy girl and Jingli cut all the corpses into the well and threw them away. The mask that might have exposed their identities was put away and done these bloody and cruel activities. Poppy girl still had leisure to touch Yanxiang's face and said with a smile: She looks pretty...
Yanxiang wanted to avoid it in embarrassment, but said coldly: Throw her into the well too
Yan Xiang's mouth was blocked, and she whimpered quickly when she heard this, and two lines of tears immediately flowed down.
The poppy girl smiled and hugged her, don't be afraid, scare you...
After absorbing the last strand of death energy, Cheng Zongyang finally stabilized the breath of the Dantian. He bleed blood and barely supported himself, the jade pendant...
Jingli nodded and put away the concentric pendant that was found from the man in black.
…………………………
A small and humble room is full of lights. From the perspective of Yanxiang, I can only see the man's face hidden in the shadow, but only his eyes are slightly shining.
The room was quite simple. Although the walls were painted with white dust, traces of rammed earth could still be seen. The window was opened in the wall with wooden strips inside. Then covered with old gauze. When Yan Xiang woke up, she heard the noise outside. However, after a woman as beautiful as peach blossoms put a small talisman on the window, the room immediately became quiet, and even the sound of Qiu Cuckoo disappeared completely.
Cheng Zongyang felt a little bored in his chest. This had nothing to do with the abnormality of the Dantian, but the sequelae of absorbing too much dead energy. In the past, the solution to the problem was to find a woman and vent the excess miscellaneous air. But now the Qi in his Dantian was in danger. Then he went to practice both things randomly, which was similar to seeking death. If Zhuo Yunjun was here, she would be better. Her cultivation was above her own and she was well versed in the secret techniques in the room. She was an excellent companion. But she was far away in Beim and could not reach her whip.
Yanxiang didn't know what the talisman was, but she knew that all the sounds in this room were isolated from the outside world. Even if she shouted loudly, no one would hear the strong fear, which made her cry.
I don't want to be too rough with women. The man still had a strong smell of blood on his body. He said: So you'd better tell the truth.
Yanxiang cried so hard that I told you everything, but I really don’t know what to say...
Poppy girl chuckled: Master, this won't work
Cheng Zongyang sighed, come on
The poppy girl slowly peeled off Yanxiang's long skirt. Yanxiang didn't care about shame, but just looked at her palms with fear and gently stroked her white skin. She stopped at the base of her thighs and smiled sweetly, and held the part between the Jimai point and Yinlian point on the inner side of Yanxiang's thigh with thumbs, then pressed hard
The strong pain was like a swim-moving little snake, which spread throughout the body in an instant. Before the Yanxiang scream was released, another woman pressed her mouth and turned her eyes white. Her body arched backwards. Her beautiful legs were spasmed under the poppy woman's hands like an electric shock. Then a stream of liquid splashed out from her lower body.
Yanxiang wanted to die and she didn't understand what happened at all, and she didn't know why she fell into this place.
Finally, the woman behind her let go of her hand, Yan Xiang bent her body, coughing violently, her originally delicate face was in tears at this time, and she was in a mess.
She didn't breathe for too long, and the beautiful and vicious woman pressed her armpits and another unspeakable pain came. Yanxiang twitched all over, and her romantic and gentle eyes turned white under the severe pain.
The poppy woman stopped and asked: Do you recognize Selu?
Yanxiang cried: I recognize...
Jingli said: Do you recognize this jade pendant?
Recognize... Yanxiang cried: We got some gold and jade a few days ago and went to the market to sell it. This jade pendant is also inside.
Did you get it from digging the grave?
yes……
Where?
In serving soup...
Cheng Zongyang suddenly said: How did Sailu die?
Yanxiang could no longer hold on, and she cried loudly, and she said while crying. Cheng Zongyang understood after a while that Sailu suddenly ran to the place where the wanderers lived before dawn a few days ago, saying that he wanted to avoid the limelight and borrowed a shovel and hoe, sneaked out alone, and didn't know what to do when the wanderers found him. When the wanderers found him, they found that he had dug a hole in the forest. They were actually digging graves in the tomb robbers and digging graves in secret. Everyone knew that what Sailu was dug in the place where the wanderers buried their bones. The two sides quarreled and beat Sailu to death on the spot. The jade pendant was found on Sailu, but no one knew the specific origin.
When Yanxiang and others sold the stolen goods, they mixed the jade pendant into the stolen goods and sold them together, but unexpectedly caused a disaster and the people from the Marquis of Xiangyi came to their door.
Cheng Zongyang took out the mandarin duck jade pendant around him, and put it with the concentric jade at a glance. Anyone could tell at a glance that these jade pieces were originally set, but one was picked up by him at the scene of Yique's murder, and one appeared on the pickpocket who was Shang Tang. What kind of connection will there be between these two completely different things?
Cheng Zongyang endured the boredom in his chest and focused his mind.
The Poppy and Jingli were still beating Yanxiang, trying to ask something from her, but their interrogation only accounted for three points, and the other seven points were simply placing Yanxiang's poppy girl and Jingli were murderers covered with blood. They obviously didn't learn anything under the dead girl. They started to pick the most painful part of Yanxiang's body, or the acupoints that would cause the qi and blood to reverse, or the fragile and sensitive parts of the armpits, which not only made Yanxiang feel pain, but also left any scars on her body.
Cheng Zongyang was too lazy to care about them, but Yanxiang's lying made them very tricked. Brother Lu Wu's sharp eyes were also gone this time. He would probably have to go to the soup for nothing.
Suddenly, Cheng Zongyang's eyes flashed and saw a red corner of it that was a piece of silk, which was piled up with Yan Xiang's stripped dress and was pressed down below.
Cheng Zongyang took it out and recognized that the silk squid was Yan Xiang's personal belonging. He also saw her using this silk squid to play chess in the casino, but now he held it in his hand, Cheng Zongyang felt a strange feeling that the silk squid tentacles were warm and cool, as smooth and soft as water, and full of texture. If he read it correctly, the silk squid was like the red gauze on the little melon, and it was a marmoset.
Cheng Zongyang stared at the silk handkerchief and raised his head for a while. Where did it come from?
Yanxiang was tortured to death and said sobbingly: It was Sailu. Sailu came that day, and used this silk squid to please my slave...
Cheng Zongyang spread the shark handkerchief and pointed to the embroidered handwriting on the horn and said: Do you recognize it?
Yanxiang said with tears in her eyes: I can’t read...
There are four words embroidered on it, and Cheng Zongyang said one by one: Jade, hall, front, hall
Cheng Zongyang put down the marmoset and said slowly: The Emperor's Sleeping Palace
Cheng Zongyang never thought that this inexplicable business would involve himself in the secrets of the palace of the Han Dynasty. Judging from the news he had heard in the Han Dynasty these days, it can be said that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was not very famous. It is said that the emperor had a very close relationship with the Hou Zhang Fang of Fuping, and was more intimate than brothers and sisters. It is more rumored that the emperor likes to play and often takes a group of teenagers to hunt and play near Luodu, and even hits a curfew. He is known to be a member of the Hou family of Fuping.
What is more rumored than the anecdotes of the emperor is that the newly established Queen Zhao is circulating on the streets and alleys, saying that the queen is actually a fairy-singing girl. The emperor met her by chance while he was traveling and brought her back to the palace. As a result, she was favored by others and was actually made the queen.
When Cheng Zongyang heard this rumor, he felt a fierce heart. The history of the Six Dynasties in front of him was broken, which was skewed from what he knew, but most of the characters were real. If he guessed correctly, this queen should be the legendary beauty: Zhao Fei Yàn But he was just moved. He was an outside businessman and could not find a way to act.
But at this time, the items in the emperor's bedroom actually appeared at his hand. Could it be the emperor himself who was serving soup that night? But what reason does Yingyang Hou have to kill them all? Because Sailu stole items marked by the emperor, he would leak the emperor's actions?
Poppy girl and Jingli also stopped and looked shocked. Of course they knew the weight of the words "The Emperor's Bedroom", but they were all very obedient and did not speak, so as not to interrupt their master's thinking.
After a long time, Cheng Zongyang opened his eyes, Poppy Slave, go and see the old man Huqin, don't disturb him
Yes, the poppy girl left quietly
Jingli said: Do you want me to go to the Yingyang Marquis Mansion?
No need, you have taken action tonight, so let's take a break
After a moment of silence, he whispered: Master's body...
It's okay for the time being
Shocked and hesitated for a moment, and whispered: Do you want me to sleep with me?
Cheng Zongyang shook his head, I want to adjust my breath for two hours and don't disturb me
yes
Jingli kneaded Yanxiang's underwear into a ball, stuffed her mouth, and quieted the room
Cheng Zongyang did not lie down, but sat cross-legged. He closed his hair, his breathing gradually became softer, expelling those messy thoughts from his mind, and calmed his breathing.
Two hours of breathing adjustment passed in a flash. Cheng Zongyang opened his eyes. It was just after the ugly moment, and it was the darkest time.
Jingli and Poppy Girl kneel beside the master. When they saw him open his eyes, they all breathed a sigh of relief. If something happened to the master, the luckiest ending for them was to commit suicide immediately and bury the master with his mother. Otherwise, Zi's mother would come back. They would definitely suffer all the suffering in the world and then bury him with his master.
Poppy girl said: That old man is still in the inn
Where is the fragrance?
Yanxiang was frightened first, and then suffered from pain in the hands of the two women. At this time, she fell asleep and Cheng Zongyang spoke, and the two women woke her up without hesitation.
Cheng Zongyang took out a scroll and spread it out under the lamp. Do you know this painting?
Yanxiang shook her head blankly. When the woman on the scroll appeared, Yanxiang Ah screamed in surprise, Yanyu!
Cheng Zongyang glanced at her deeply, are you sure?
Yanxiang looked at it for a long time and finally confirmed: It's her
You go to serve soup together and find Brother Lu Wu as fast as possible. Cheng Zongyang said: Tell him, I know who the last person in the foot shop is, a painting master
Before Cheng Zongyang could stand firm, he reached into his arms with one hand, lifted out the coral dagger, turned his body and sank on the long sword arm, and a stream of true energy surged in. Cheng Zongyang instantly estimated the opponent's cultivation, removed the strength in a slanted body, and threw it out like an iron whip on his left leg, kicking it under the man's ribs.
With a muffled sound from the tent, the big man shook his body, and the long sword he swung to one side, slashing the unconscious man below the steps in the waist
The flesh and blood flew across the river, Cheng Zongyang hugged Yanxiang and rolled away, avoiding the range of the blade.
The figures on the wall swayed, and the men in black wearing iron masks jumped into the hospital one after another. The men in black remained silent, exuding a murderous aura. It was obvious that Zhu Anshi, a desperate man with many lives, was just an ordinary martial artist, but he was chopped down in a few moves and fell to the ground.
Don't kill him! A man in black stopped his companion and said: Where did Zhu Anshi go?
The man's legs were covered with blood, but his expression was not afraid.
The man in black said: As long as you say it, you will immediately reward one million yuan! Become a member of the Yulin Tianjun!
The man laughed loudly, "Is someone a greedy person for wealth?" He tore open his shirt, exposed his strong chest, then stood up, held a knife and shouted: Life and death! Life and death!
The man in black rushed forward, and the sword lights intertwined, and a sharp long sword slashed into his head, split his chest, cut off his arms, and cut his lower abdomen. However, the man did not retreat at all until he was dismembered by a knife.
Cheng Zongyang had already seen that there were six men in black who rushed in. Four of them had leopard-shaped masks. The strongest man and the man in black with a mouth were cast on the masks. The two of them were also the two with the highest cultivation level and had a chance to win alone. If they were the same as the two, they would probably lose all six people, and they would definitely be dead.
The man in black in the black lifted his sword and pointed at Cheng Zongyang, and said in a cold voice: Where is Zhu Anshi?
Cheng Zongyang smiled bitterly and said: I said I was a passing man, do you believe it?
The man in black snorted coldly, and his palm holding the knife slowly tightened
Wait! Cheng Zongyang suddenly spoke when they were about to take action. Does the bounty you just mentioned count?
Tell Zhu Anshi's whereabouts, give him a reward of one million yuan, and be appointed as the Yulin Tianjun!
Hey, Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Do you know that your words leaked a lot of information Ah? You will be rewarded with millions of dollars as soon as you open your mouth. Even in Luodu, where kings and nobles gather, there are not many families who are appointed as the Yulin Tianjun. If I remember correctly, the Yulin Tianjun is personally in charge of General Huo, and can promise casually. The family background and status of your family head is not ordinary, rich, noble, and able to support retainers. The identity of your family head is almost out of reach, right?
The courtyard was so quiet that the needle fell down. After a moment, the man in black sneered and took off his mask. What's the point of telling you? Our lord is the Marquis of Lu, Xiangyi!
The Queen Mother of Xiangyi, Lu Ji, the brother of the Queen Mother of Yingyang, and the Queen Mother's brother, according to the tradition of the Han Dynasty, this famous relative of the foreign ministers will be the best candidate for the Grand Sima General, and it is also the leader of the ministers after Huo Zimeng. No wonder he dared to be so arrogant and came directly to the door.
Cheng Zongyang said: When did Daxia Zhu offend the Marquis of Xiangyi? He wanted to kill all the people?
Isn’t it enough for Zhu Anshi to commit illegal activities, to privately hide prisoners, and to sell stolen goods?
Are you wrong? Cheng Zongyang said: Even if you are right, the government should come forward and you are just a slave to the Marquis of Xiangyi. Do you think you are the government?
The majestic man said in a deep voice: Stop talking nonsense! Kill him!
Zhu Anshi and I have nothing to do with me, I am just passing by. Cheng Zongyang shouted: As long as you are polite, I will leave with my companions now!
The man in black in the head said: Are you her companion?
Yes, we have been childhood sweethearts
Several men in black looked at each other, as if they didn't understand what he meant, the man in black in the end raised his hand and showed a jade pendant. Where did the jade pendant come from?
It was a jade pendant carved into a concentric style. The lustered jade seemed to shine under the night. This kind of top-quality mutton fat jade was rare. Cheng Zongyang recognized it at a glance. This jade pendant had the same texture as the mandarin duck jade pendant he picked up, and it was even probably from the hands of the same craftsman.
Cheng Zongyang thought of it and said: I picked it up.
Where did you pick it up?
On the banks of the Yi River
when?
Five days ago Cheng Zongyang said: It was on a damaged carriage
The man in black in the head showed a cruel and playful look in his eyes, and then he smiled. You were lucky and continued to shout: Kill him!
Two men in black wearing iron masks snatched silently from Cheng Zongyang's toes, held an abandoned long sword in his hand, then soared into the air, and slashed straight towards the top of the two of them with a compelling aura.
Seeing that the young man showed this move, the man in black was a little surprised. Even among the disciples of Xiangyi Marquis, there would never be too many strong people with level five cultivation. This man was much younger than other famous masters.
The two men in black suddenly separated, rolled up like a sword light, slashing at his legs, Cheng Zongyang was in mid-air, and a tiger was squatting in the sky. The sword light suddenly shot out, forcing the two of them away, then provoked the long sword from below, swung the long sword of the man in black on the right halfway, and then kicked him under his elbow.
The man in black didn't expect that he looked not amazing, but his sword technique was so powerful. He accidentally let out the long sword and then a sharp pain in his chest. The sharp blade tear opens the muscles in his chest like a tiger's teeth, and breaks his sternum.
The man in black fell to the ground with blood splashed. Cheng Zongyang rushed forward, grabbed the flying long sword with his left hand, and steadily caught the flying long sword in his hand. Cheng Zongyang was like a tiger with wings. The two swords defended left and attacked right, killing another man in black backwards repeatedly
More than ten moves passed in an instant, and suddenly Cheng Zongyang used his swords together. While the man in black had no time to return to defense, a tiger roared and thunder crossed and struck him with a loud noise. The man in black's iron mask seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, sunken, and his neck was broken and he broke back, and two streams of blood burst out from his eyes.
Cheng Zongyang often mingled with the strong men of Xingyue Lake, which easily makes people ignore that he has stepped into the fifth level of sitting and taking photos. He is not inferior to the ordinary martial arts heroes. At this time, both sides fight quickly. In just a few breaths, two men in black were killed, so fast that they almost didn't have time to react.
The man like a god of killing finally took action. With the long sword, the air around him seemed to be rolled up by a blade, and a rush of energy was brought into the flat ground.
Cheng Zongyang was very calm. Although this guy was full of momentum, he could let go but not stop. Even if his swordsmanship was better than him, he was very limited.
However, the opponent obviously did not intend to decide one-on-one with him. The other three men in black spread out at the same time and attacked Cheng Zongyang together to join the battle group. Cheng Zongyang suddenly felt the pressure. The man's sword technique was very strange. He had very few chopping techniques, but he used more stabs, which made it very difficult to block the frame.
Cheng Zongyang never showed off his strength and was about to suffer a loss. He immediately summoned someone to help the war and did not show his body. A sharp thorn shot quietly against the ground, penetrated the ankle of a man in black.
Don't panic! The man in black in the lead shouted, then suddenly blew his sword, slashed another eyebrow to the ground, and then killed him in the dark
Cheng Zongyang lost a strong enemy and finally stabilized his position. However, he knew Jingli's cultivation level. He was a little worse than the man in black. Now that Yuanyin has not yet recovered, it is good to be able to protect himself. The three opponents in front of him still need to solve them by themselves.
The sound of swords sounded in succession, and Cheng Zongyang retreated step by step under the siege of the three. Suddenly, he staggered and sat down. The empty door on his chest showed such an opportunity. No opponent would miss it. The strong man wearing a tiger mask had attacked very tightly. Seeing this, he immediately flew up and slashed Cheng Zongyang's chest with a long sword.
Cheng Zongyang suddenly smiled, flipped his body to the side, kicked the sack behind him, revealing a dark and deep well mouth below.
The big man roared, and the long sword turned from bottom to sweep, trying to avoid the wellhead, but Cheng Zongyang had been guarding against his move, pushing the knife to the tip of his knife, and using skill to lead his offensive to one side. The big man was originally about a foot away from the wellhead, but was led by Cheng Zongyang, but instead changed direction, drilling into the wellhead like he was thrown into the well, and he had no way to borrow strength in the air. It was too late to try to change his moves. As he cursed, his whole body seemed to disappear out of thin air, and he fell into the well with his knife.
The remaining two men in black had a different cultivation level. One of them was shot and had no way to use the footwork, which meant he could only be beaten. He wanted to drag his injured leg and chop Cheng Zongyang with a knife. Cheng Zongyang threw him aside and chased him to the other man in black. He made three moves in a row, then turned around and slashed into the well at the same time.
While the gold and iron clashed, the big man's scolding sounded again, but as soon as he jumped to the wellhead, he was chopped back by two swords and killed him. Cheng Zongyang didn't have time to turn around, so he looked at Eagle Yang with a tiger's move, and provoked back like an eagle wing, opening the attack grid of two men in black.
Cheng Zongyang ignored the injured man in black and stared at the other person forcing attack. He turned around twice in the middle to seal the wellhead, trapping the man underground. His attack became more and more urgent. His two swords were full of wind, and the ferocity and courage of the Five Tigers Broken Door Knife was fully displayed, and the sword light rolled out, like a duck driving the man in black and circling the wellhead. Although the man in black was still resisting, he had been suppressed by Cheng Zongyang. It was only a matter of time before he died. Another man in black was injured in his ankle. He couldn't even get into it if he wanted to help. He could only follow behind the buttocks of the two.
Cheng Zongyang roared wildly, and the two swords were released again. The left sword flew across the head, and the right sword slashed the man in black backed back desperately, but he tripped the edge of the well like Cheng Zongyang, and his butt sank and fell into the wellhead.
Cheng Zongyang raised his sword and stabbed the man's chest and abdomen. At this moment, his dantian suddenly shook and a mouthful of blood spurted out. The two swords stabbed half of it, and the true energy had dissipated. In the end, he only stabbed the man on the shoulder.
The man in black escaped from death and immediately fought back. Unexpectedly, there was a sudden burst of pain under him. Half of his body sitting at the wellhead was cut open by a long sword.
The man underground could not see the situation outside at all. He shattered the object blocking the wellhead no matter how many times he was. However, his rush was blocked again this time, and he could only fall back to the bottom of the well without any means.
The injured man in black looked at his companion suddenly with blood and his limbs flying, almost frightened. After a while, he realized that the young man was not in a state of mind and his back was kneeling beside the well, half of his body was stained with blood, but he did not move. He staggered over with courage, while raising the knife to the back of his neck.
The man was lying beside the well without any movement. The man in black became more and more courageous. The long sword slashed the man's body and barely tilted. Then a ball of sword light burst out from the wellhead, fighting with the man in black, and then a series of big scoldings.
The man in black shook his arm and staggered, half kneeling on the ground, he didn't bother to complain about this misunderstanding, raised his knife again and aimed at his opponent who was close to him.
The young man turned over and spit out a mouthful of blood, which made his head and face full of men in black angry and happy. The blade flashed with a cold light and slashed towards his chest.
Suddenly, a cold chill came from the lower abdomen. In an instant, the blood and blood in the body seemed to be frozen. The man in black lowered his eyes in surprise. He saw that there was a strange dagger in his hand, which was stabbing in his dantian.
The man in black widened his eyes in disbelief, his body slowly tilted to the side, and then the knife light at the wellhead rose again, chopping his head away half of the man fell back to the bottom of the well, but all the obstacles were killed, and no one could stop him again the next time.
More than a dozen corpses staggered at the wellhead, which made the man closer to the wellhead than he imagined. He rose up again with a huge anger. He swung his sword around the wellhead without encountering any obstacles. He immediately spread his arms and climbed the edge of the well.
Just as my palm was pulled down the bluestone at the wellhead, a short sword passed through the moonlight and cut it heavily, and a few fingers flew up with blood.
A shrill scream sounded from the well. The poppy woman who had just arrived licked the corners of her lips, revealing a bloodthirsty smile, and then went to kill a man in black who was fighting with Jingli.
Cheng Zongyang's eyes were closed, and the dead energy that could not be seen by the naked eye rushed from all directions, and the spring water flowed into the Dantian.
Within half an hour, more than twenty people died in this courtyard. A large amount of death energy caused severe pain in Cheng Zongyang's dantian, and also pulled him back from the edge of death. He tried his best to maintain the nearly collapsed qi wheel, constantly transforming the death energy into life-saving vitality, and transporting the scattered retrograde qi and blood into the dantian one by one.
The two servants joined forces to kill the man in black in the leader, adding a bit of blood to the courtyard under the moon. The last big man was trapped in the well without any movement for a long time.
The poppy woman picked up a long knife, and her energy penetrated into the blade, threw it hard into the well. With a jingle, the long knife was lifted and hit the wall of the well.
Cheng Zongyang suddenly said: Don’t kill him...
The subordinates of the Xiangyi Marquis were mostly insiders, and the news he mentioned was more important than his life
The poppy girl stopped and laughed loudly from the well. The laughter came from the well and became muffled, and then a strong sense of death surged into the sky.
Cheng Zongyang cursed in his heart, these damn dead soldiers are all crazy people who are desperate! The man was trapped in the underground and knew that he was unlucky and would commit suicide immediately without waiting for them to take action.
Apart from their master and slave, Yanxiang became the only survivor. The blood everywhere did not make her coma. However, her face was pale and bloodless, and her eyes were full of fear.
Poppy girl and Jingli cut all the corpses into the well and threw them away. The mask that might have exposed their identities was put away and done these bloody and cruel activities. Poppy girl still had leisure to touch Yanxiang's face and said with a smile: She looks pretty...
Yanxiang wanted to avoid it in embarrassment, but said coldly: Throw her into the well too
Yan Xiang's mouth was blocked, and she whimpered quickly when she heard this, and two lines of tears immediately flowed down.
The poppy girl smiled and hugged her, don't be afraid, scare you...
After absorbing the last strand of death energy, Cheng Zongyang finally stabilized the breath of the Dantian. He bleed blood and barely supported himself, the jade pendant...
Jingli nodded and put away the concentric pendant that was found from the man in black.
…………………………
A small and humble room is full of lights. From the perspective of Yanxiang, I can only see the man's face hidden in the shadow, but only his eyes are slightly shining.
The room was quite simple. Although the walls were painted with white dust, traces of rammed earth could still be seen. The window was opened in the wall with wooden strips inside. Then covered with old gauze. When Yan Xiang woke up, she heard the noise outside. However, after a woman as beautiful as peach blossoms put a small talisman on the window, the room immediately became quiet, and even the sound of Qiu Cuckoo disappeared completely.
Cheng Zongyang felt a little bored in his chest. This had nothing to do with the abnormality of the Dantian, but the sequelae of absorbing too much dead energy. In the past, the solution to the problem was to find a woman and vent the excess miscellaneous air. But now the Qi in his Dantian was in danger. Then he went to practice both things randomly, which was similar to seeking death. If Zhuo Yunjun was here, she would be better. Her cultivation was above her own and she was well versed in the secret techniques in the room. She was an excellent companion. But she was far away in Beim and could not reach her whip.
Yanxiang didn't know what the talisman was, but she knew that all the sounds in this room were isolated from the outside world. Even if she shouted loudly, no one would hear the strong fear, which made her cry.
I don't want to be too rough with women. The man still had a strong smell of blood on his body. He said: So you'd better tell the truth.
Yanxiang cried so hard that I told you everything, but I really don’t know what to say...
Poppy girl chuckled: Master, this won't work
Cheng Zongyang sighed, come on
The poppy girl slowly peeled off Yanxiang's long skirt. Yanxiang didn't care about shame, but just looked at her palms with fear and gently stroked her white skin. She stopped at the base of her thighs and smiled sweetly, and held the part between the Jimai point and Yinlian point on the inner side of Yanxiang's thigh with thumbs, then pressed hard
The strong pain was like a swim-moving little snake, which spread throughout the body in an instant. Before the Yanxiang scream was released, another woman pressed her mouth and turned her eyes white. Her body arched backwards. Her beautiful legs were spasmed under the poppy woman's hands like an electric shock. Then a stream of liquid splashed out from her lower body.
Yanxiang wanted to die and she didn't understand what happened at all, and she didn't know why she fell into this place.
Finally, the woman behind her let go of her hand, Yan Xiang bent her body, coughing violently, her originally delicate face was in tears at this time, and she was in a mess.
She didn't breathe for too long, and the beautiful and vicious woman pressed her armpits and another unspeakable pain came. Yanxiang twitched all over, and her romantic and gentle eyes turned white under the severe pain.
The poppy woman stopped and asked: Do you recognize Selu?
Yanxiang cried: I recognize...
Jingli said: Do you recognize this jade pendant?
Recognize... Yanxiang cried: We got some gold and jade a few days ago and went to the market to sell it. This jade pendant is also inside.
Did you get it from digging the grave?
yes……
Where?
In serving soup...
Cheng Zongyang suddenly said: How did Sailu die?
Yanxiang could no longer hold on, and she cried loudly, and she said while crying. Cheng Zongyang understood after a while that Sailu suddenly ran to the place where the wanderers lived before dawn a few days ago, saying that he wanted to avoid the limelight and borrowed a shovel and hoe, sneaked out alone, and didn't know what to do when the wanderers found him. When the wanderers found him, they found that he had dug a hole in the forest. They were actually digging graves in the tomb robbers and digging graves in secret. Everyone knew that what Sailu was dug in the place where the wanderers buried their bones. The two sides quarreled and beat Sailu to death on the spot. The jade pendant was found on Sailu, but no one knew the specific origin.
When Yanxiang and others sold the stolen goods, they mixed the jade pendant into the stolen goods and sold them together, but unexpectedly caused a disaster and the people from the Marquis of Xiangyi came to their door.
Cheng Zongyang took out the mandarin duck jade pendant around him, and put it with the concentric jade at a glance. Anyone could tell at a glance that these jade pieces were originally set, but one was picked up by him at the scene of Yique's murder, and one appeared on the pickpocket who was Shang Tang. What kind of connection will there be between these two completely different things?
Cheng Zongyang endured the boredom in his chest and focused his mind.
The Poppy and Jingli were still beating Yanxiang, trying to ask something from her, but their interrogation only accounted for three points, and the other seven points were simply placing Yanxiang's poppy girl and Jingli were murderers covered with blood. They obviously didn't learn anything under the dead girl. They started to pick the most painful part of Yanxiang's body, or the acupoints that would cause the qi and blood to reverse, or the fragile and sensitive parts of the armpits, which not only made Yanxiang feel pain, but also left any scars on her body.
Cheng Zongyang was too lazy to care about them, but Yanxiang's lying made them very tricked. Brother Lu Wu's sharp eyes were also gone this time. He would probably have to go to the soup for nothing.
Suddenly, Cheng Zongyang's eyes flashed and saw a red corner of it that was a piece of silk, which was piled up with Yan Xiang's stripped dress and was pressed down below.
Cheng Zongyang took it out and recognized that the silk squid was Yan Xiang's personal belonging. He also saw her using this silk squid to play chess in the casino, but now he held it in his hand, Cheng Zongyang felt a strange feeling that the silk squid tentacles were warm and cool, as smooth and soft as water, and full of texture. If he read it correctly, the silk squid was like the red gauze on the little melon, and it was a marmoset.
Cheng Zongyang stared at the silk handkerchief and raised his head for a while. Where did it come from?
Yanxiang was tortured to death and said sobbingly: It was Sailu. Sailu came that day, and used this silk squid to please my slave...
Cheng Zongyang spread the shark handkerchief and pointed to the embroidered handwriting on the horn and said: Do you recognize it?
Yanxiang said with tears in her eyes: I can’t read...
There are four words embroidered on it, and Cheng Zongyang said one by one: Jade, hall, front, hall
Cheng Zongyang put down the marmoset and said slowly: The Emperor's Sleeping Palace
Cheng Zongyang never thought that this inexplicable business would involve himself in the secrets of the palace of the Han Dynasty. Judging from the news he had heard in the Han Dynasty these days, it can be said that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was not very famous. It is said that the emperor had a very close relationship with the Hou Zhang Fang of Fuping, and was more intimate than brothers and sisters. It is more rumored that the emperor likes to play and often takes a group of teenagers to hunt and play near Luodu, and even hits a curfew. He is known to be a member of the Hou family of Fuping.
What is more rumored than the anecdotes of the emperor is that the newly established Queen Zhao is circulating on the streets and alleys, saying that the queen is actually a fairy-singing girl. The emperor met her by chance while he was traveling and brought her back to the palace. As a result, she was favored by others and was actually made the queen.
When Cheng Zongyang heard this rumor, he felt a fierce heart. The history of the Six Dynasties in front of him was broken, which was skewed from what he knew, but most of the characters were real. If he guessed correctly, this queen should be the legendary beauty: Zhao Fei Yàn But he was just moved. He was an outside businessman and could not find a way to act.
But at this time, the items in the emperor's bedroom actually appeared at his hand. Could it be the emperor himself who was serving soup that night? But what reason does Yingyang Hou have to kill them all? Because Sailu stole items marked by the emperor, he would leak the emperor's actions?
Poppy girl and Jingli also stopped and looked shocked. Of course they knew the weight of the words "The Emperor's Bedroom", but they were all very obedient and did not speak, so as not to interrupt their master's thinking.
After a long time, Cheng Zongyang opened his eyes, Poppy Slave, go and see the old man Huqin, don't disturb him
Yes, the poppy girl left quietly
Jingli said: Do you want me to go to the Yingyang Marquis Mansion?
No need, you have taken action tonight, so let's take a break
After a moment of silence, he whispered: Master's body...
It's okay for the time being
Shocked and hesitated for a moment, and whispered: Do you want me to sleep with me?
Cheng Zongyang shook his head, I want to adjust my breath for two hours and don't disturb me
yes
Jingli kneaded Yanxiang's underwear into a ball, stuffed her mouth, and quieted the room
Cheng Zongyang did not lie down, but sat cross-legged. He closed his hair, his breathing gradually became softer, expelling those messy thoughts from his mind, and calmed his breathing.
Two hours of breathing adjustment passed in a flash. Cheng Zongyang opened his eyes. It was just after the ugly moment, and it was the darkest time.
Jingli and Poppy Girl kneel beside the master. When they saw him open his eyes, they all breathed a sigh of relief. If something happened to the master, the luckiest ending for them was to commit suicide immediately and bury the master with his mother. Otherwise, Zi's mother would come back. They would definitely suffer all the suffering in the world and then bury him with his master.
Poppy girl said: That old man is still in the inn
Where is the fragrance?
Yanxiang was frightened first, and then suffered from pain in the hands of the two women. At this time, she fell asleep and Cheng Zongyang spoke, and the two women woke her up without hesitation.
Cheng Zongyang took out a scroll and spread it out under the lamp. Do you know this painting?
Yanxiang shook her head blankly. When the woman on the scroll appeared, Yanxiang Ah screamed in surprise, Yanyu!
Cheng Zongyang glanced at her deeply, are you sure?
Yanxiang looked at it for a long time and finally confirmed: It's her
You go to serve soup together and find Brother Lu Wu as fast as possible. Cheng Zongyang said: Tell him, I know who the last person in the foot shop is, a painting master
