Lin Mao, Chang Xiaoqing and Yao Xiaohua all fell silent when they saw someone in the back garden.
The place where the three of them are now is exactly the place where the trees are lush and the branches are luxuriant. The exotic flowers and plants that Chang Qing bought from all over the country with a lot of money in the past, even in winter, are still green and glistening, just to cover Three traces.
In addition, the two people in the garden were confronting each other, so they didn't have the energy to notice others.
The three of them concentrated and calmed down, and secretly visited behind the flowers and trees.
The "Qu Tongling" in the boy's words is a middle-aged man in his thirties. In the past, he was a loyal, honest, ordinary face.
However, now it is this very loyal man who is raising his eyebrows and sneering. Even facing the former master, the killing intent on the long sword in his hand has not diminished in the slightest.
"This is the end of the matter, please don't do any more unnecessary things..." His eyes swept over the corpse of his former colleague, his eyes trembled slightly, and he added, "Your Highness is destined to be unlucky in the Jiaocheng fire." Death, if His Highness can go on the road obediently, why bother to let this group of colleagues die for nothing?"
While speaking, the tip of the long sword was about to be handed to the boy's throat.
"presumptuous--"
The young man shouted angrily, he was still young, but his voice showed a bit of inexplicable majesty.
The tip of Commander Qu's sword could not help but pause.
"There is no way in Chizheng's mansion that you are a traitor who commits rebellion, has no respect for your father, and kills your companions... Who are you? Who sent you to kill me?! Since you already have the courage to hold a sword against me, Why don't you tell me the name of that person, so that I can see it!"
The young man didn't know that there was someone spying on him. To him, he was obviously in a desperate situation, but he didn't show the slightest cowardice in front of Naqu's commanding sword.That pair of phoenix eyes raised slightly, and the gaze became sharper, making people afraid to look directly at it.
Lin Mao saw that Commander Naqu's face changed slightly, and his throat rolled. This person actually showed a slight retreat under the scolding of the young man, but in an instant, that retreat turned into anger from embarrassment.
"Why do you bother to ask the bottom line, Your Highness, even if you know, I'm afraid His Highness won't feel good, why don't you let the subordinates come down to help you solve your problems, and send you on your way—"
While speaking, the sword in his hand stabbed at the young man again without hesitation.
It was too late and then it was too fast, seeing the young man was about to die, but the young man suddenly became short, narrowly avoiding the critical point.Commander Qu pierced the young man's shoulder with a sword, and he saw the blood gushing out from the young man's shoulder. The hand crossbow, like lightning, buckled three times in a row at the man in front of him.
"Shh-"
"Shh-"
"Shh-"
Three strings sounded, and a strong wind suddenly rose.
But Commander Nagqu is indeed a master who can single-handedly kill all the dead soldiers who had been protecting the young man. Facing the almost unavoidable three-handed crossbow, his body seemed to be suddenly crushed by someone. It was as if the backbone was removed, and a dangerous and dangerous iron bridge was built in the future, just like that, narrowly and dangerously avoiding those few menacing arrows.
The three crossbow arrows cut three long gashes on Commander Qu's cheeks and chest. Even though they were not fatal, when the man straightened up, blood gushed out from the wound like a waterfall, which looked very serious. fear.
"Your Highness... This subordinate once wanted to let you go more comfortably, but what you have done now is really making it difficult for this subordinate..."
Commander Qu's face was already stained red with his own blood, but instead of being angry, he smiled, and gave a low laugh at the boy with a hoarse throat.
Seeing that he missed a hit, the young man finally showed a ruthless look on his previously calm face. He threw the hand crossbow with no arrows in his hand directly on the ground, then turned his head, and "poofed" on the ground. Spit out bloody saliva.
"Ah."
Then he sneered, but he didn't even want to say another word to that Commander Qu, his contempt was beyond words.
Commander Qu's face was twitching uncontrollably, with a ferocious expression.
With a sneer, the young man slowly took out an inch sword from his cuff. The blade was thin and sharp, reflecting the bright red flames in the sky like blood.
And at the moment when he saw the Hidden Sword in the young man's hand, Lin Mao's breathing involuntarily became faster.
He knew that the Hidden Blade—
It is a sword that people in the Zhengfu must have. Because the blade is very thin, it can usually be wrapped around the elbow with a soft cloth, and the sword holder can still move freely. perceived by others.
But that is not a dagger used to fight against the enemy, but a sword used to kill himself in order to avoid falling into the enemy's hands and being tortured in a desperate situation.
A long time ago, when Lin Mao saw such a Hidden Sword for the first time, he once half-jokingly said to Gong Ningzi that he might as well prepare one for him.
【"Nonsense... With your lazy and slack nature, you must lie on the hospital bed, surrounded by disciples and grandchildren, and die without any illness. There is no need for such an unlucky thing."】
He vaguely remembered that at that time, Gong Ningzi reached out his hand and tapped Lin Mao on the forehead while talking like this angrily.
Then, both of them froze.
One is a Sanying scholar who achieved great ambitions at a young age, and the other is a disfigured, sick and weak owner of Wangyou Valley who never leaves home.
Such a small gesture, but a bit too intimate.
Neither Lin Mao nor Gong Ningzi knew how to deal with it.
after that……
Later, both of them were a little out of their minds, and Lin Mao completely forgot to ask Gong Ningzi for a hidden sword that could be hidden on the elbow and used to commit suicide...
Lin Mao never thought that after so many years, he would see another boy draw such a sword from his sleeve with his own eyes.
Moreover, the young man has reached such a situation, and he has no intention of aiming the Hidden Sword at himself.He raised his arm and aimed the tip of the Hidden Sword at the bloodstained, ghost-like Commander Qu...
Seeing the young man's determination, Lin Mao, who was watching from the side, could not help but frown slightly.
He knew in his heart that if he continued like this, he might watch the young man die at the hands of the big man in the next moment.According to Lin Mao's original personality, he would definitely not be able to help but rescue him, but now that Chang Qing is seriously injured and he has lost all his martial arts, and there is Yao Xiaohua who is not familiar with martial arts beside the two of them. An unknown enemy is really not a blessing.
but……
Lin Mao was hesitating, but his body seemed to have its own consciousness, and he reached out and pinched Chang Xiaoqing's palm involuntarily.
This is implying that Chang Xiaoqing came to the rescue.
Almost at the same time, in the back garden where the blood-stained corpses were strewn all over the field, Commander Qu's sword almost touched the boy's chest - the sharp blade directly sliced through the brocade robe on the boy's body, and the boy was stained black with blood. Under the blue robe, a bit of bright yellow cloth flickered slightly in the approaching red light of the fire.
"Oops, bad!"
Lin Mao suddenly heard a low cry from Yao Xiaohua beside him, and when he turned his head, he met the girl's embarrassed face.
With such a distracted effort, a scream suddenly burst out from the mouth of Naqu Commander in the garden.
"Ahhh-"
I saw the long sword in Naqu's commander's hand fell to the ground, and a long blood arrow shot out from his throat.
The man staggered back a lot, put his hands on his neck, trying to cover the wound.
Of course, before the wound was completely cut open, the man's action was useless at all.A moment later, the man who was still majestic before holding the winning ticket had already slumped to the ground, his body twitched slightly on the ground, and then he didn't move anymore.
"Brother Lin, that boy is the guy who gave me the veiled hat earlier—"
Yao Xiaohua stared at Commander Qu's body stupidly with her eyes wide open, her face was stupefied, she seemed to be petrified.She bit her lip and whispered in Lin Mao's ear.
"boom--"
As soon as Yao Xiaohua's words fell, Lin Mao watched helplessly as the young man holding the Hidden Sword in the back garden flickered and also fell to the ground.
Regardless of other things, Lin Mao hurried forward and turned the boy over to have a look, only to find that the boy's chest was bleeding out, and his shoulders and thighs were covered with wounds.
It is really unimaginable that not long ago, this young man could stand in front of that Commander Qu so calmly and confront others.
"What happened just now? Xiaoqing, did you do it?"
Did the young man cut the throat of Commander Qu with his sword?Or did Chang Xiaoqing kill that person in an emergency?Until this moment, Lin Mao hadn't figured out what happened in the short moment when he was distracted just now.
Chang Xiaoqing frowned slightly and shook her head slightly.
"not me."
He said.
"Brother Lin, shall we save him?"
Yao Xiaohua took a look at the boy and asked hesitantly.
"Bang bang...boom..."
While he was speaking, there was a louder sound of building collapse not far away.
The swirling air flow seemed to be wrapped in a red-hot blade, blowing so that people could barely open their eyes.Lin Mao knew that it must be because the fire had completely burned to the side of the Golden House mansion, and the current situation did not allow him to think twice.Seeing that the young man in front of him was weak and covered in blood, Lin Mao put one of his arms on his shoulder, asked Chang Xiaoqing to help pick up the other arm of the young man, and hurried to the rockery beside the pond in the back garden.
"Let's talk about the secret way first."
he said hastily.
Then, under his leadership, a group of people opened a stone wall that was integrated with the rockery on the side of the rockery.
A narrow entrance appeared behind the stone wall.
Lin Mao walked ahead.
"Follow me……"
He said.
When Yao Xiaohua was the last one to step into the entrance, the removed stone wall immediately returned to its original place with a "click", from the outside, this place is still just an ordinary delicate rockery.
And outside the rockery, within the dead body of Commander Qu, suddenly another small object gently arched...
A small, pitch-black black snake slowly slid out from the man's cuff, and then quickly followed the path Yao Xiaohua had walked before, winding all the way to the rockery, and slipped into the rockery along the gap. Within the crevice.
The place where the three of them are now is exactly the place where the trees are lush and the branches are luxuriant. The exotic flowers and plants that Chang Qing bought from all over the country with a lot of money in the past, even in winter, are still green and glistening, just to cover Three traces.
