He landed with a loud sound, shattering the last trace of saber intent frozen on the wooden table.The narrow old square table finally split into two neat halves, and fell into the rain, making a bang.

At the same time, the Tiqi who surrounded them also seemed to have received orders, and they all lit up their weapons.

Gu Yuexuan stood in the same place, with one hand fisted behind her back, and the other hand flattened to protect the seriously injured head of Lu Biao, her eyes swept across the forest in an unhurried manner.

Except for the shoulder bearer and the others in the room before, there are seven people from Tiqi this time, and Xia Houyu, who is in the high position of the commander on the right, came out in person. Pay attention to.Half of this group of Tiqi came from a family of officials and officials, and the other half came from a famous family in the world.And that Xia Hou became famous when he was young, and his sword is superb. In terms of martial arts alone, he is better than his cousin Xia Houfei by a few margins.

Even if Gu Yuexuan, who is the master of martial arts, is going to fight against others with his own strength this time, the odds of winning are hard to predict.

Even Lu Biaotou showed a trace of uncertainty on his face. He glanced at him, as if he had made up his mind. He took a step forward, plunged the long knife in his hand into the mud, and said loudly: "Hero Gu, you don't have to fight for this old man." Help the imperial court to tie the knot."

He had been hit hard by the iron crutch earlier, his shoulder was slightly collapsed and bleeding profusely, it was difficult to say whether he could even lift the knife.According to his opinion, in order not to implicate Gu Yuexuan, he would rather die alone.

Gu Yuexuan glanced back at Lu Biao, shook his head slightly, and did not give up a single step.While admiring the bravery of the head of the bodyguard, who was as brave as a young man, he couldn't help but wonder, what kind of important things were contained in the wooden box that cost the Golden Wind Bodyguard Bureau several lives and had to sacrifice their lives to protect it?

Seeing that he had no intention of holding back and leaving, Xia Houyu's expression changed slightly, he gritted his teeth and waved his sleeves.

With his order, the rest of Tiqi rushed up.

That attack had been brewing for a long time, like a gust of wind, it swept through the bamboo forest in the autumn rain.The Tiqi are all well-trained first-class players, the seven of them rushed forward, and their footsteps were not much louder than the sound of rain hitting the bamboo leaves.

In the torrential rain, the bamboo shadows rustled, and the only thing that didn't move was the shadow of the young man hidden in the emerald green.

In front of him, swords, lights, swords and shadows were approaching every step of the way, making dangerous moves, but Gu Yuexuan only slightly opened his black eyes, moved left and right, and even avoided dozens of moves, without taking a step away from Lu Biao's head, nor punching him.

The faster the enemy moves, the more calm he will be, because only stillness can stop him.

After thirty moves, Gu Yuexuan retreated half a zhang, leaning against an old bamboo tree, facing the swords and spears of the seven men.

At this moment, it seems that the wind is stronger and the rain is more urgent.

The Tiqimen unanimously launched the final blow, piercing Gu Yuexuan's left chest with the sword, hacking his right shoulder with the knife, hooking his side with the hook, and sweeping across his legs with the spear, The other three attacked his back.

If Gu Yuexuan doesn't move anymore, he will be poked into a bloody hole on the spot that can no longer move.

And he finally moved.

I saw him twirling his toes lightly, he was already kicking the tip of the spear that was sweeping straight to the lower body, his body took advantage of the momentum and leaned forward, avoiding the grab that was hooked to the lower abdomen by a hair.And in that short moment, he had already punched twice in succession, one punch hit the heavy acupuncture point on the shoulder of the person wielding the knife, forcing the blade to fall straight down, hitting the arm of the person wielding the spear; The fist hit the long sword glowing with cold light. With a clang sound, the sword immediately split into two parts, the other part was excited by the wind of the fist, and went straight into the back of the hooker.

The palm wind from the back also came, Gu Yuexuan didn't rest for a moment, unexpectedly retracted the momentum after throwing out two punches, lightly pressed his elbow on the bamboo behind his back, spun around his body with a sinking waist, bent his knees and raised his legs, it was a blow Horizontal kick.

Where the wind swept by the legs, the other three staggered and retreated for more than ten feet.

This confrontation was really too fast, the head of the bodyguard Lu only had time to clenched and loosened his hand on the handle of the knife, and said one word: "Okay."

However, Gu Yuexuan did not dare to relax in the slightest. Although Ti Qi was injured, his combat power was still there, especially Xia Houyu, who had the best martial arts, had not yet joined the battle.

Xia Houyu was also looking at him, the coldness in his eyes gradually condensed.

As soon as the four eyes met, Gu Yuexuan knew that he was going to make a move.

The cold light came in an instant, and as soon as Jue Dao came out, even the rain that fell on everyone's cheeks became more bleak.

Xia Houyu's saber was too fast, so fast that Gu Yuexuan couldn't do it like before, and waited to see the flaws in his saber path before making a move.His first slash made a deep mark on the mud, Gu Yuexuan didn't dare to be careless, in order to avoid the blade, he had to jump up, turned over in the air, and stepped on the thick bamboo behind him.

The second slash and the third slash followed closely, impartially, every slash was directed towards Gu Yuexuan's feet, he had no choice but to go all the way up.

Xia Houyu fired seven knives in a row, Gu Yuexuan had climbed to the top of the bamboo, but the bamboo was pierced by seven knives, it didn't immediately shatter to the ground, it was still shaking slightly.

When Gu Yuexuan saw Xia Houyu's actions again, his heart tightened suddenly.

Because the man's eighth knife was aimed at Lu Biaotou who was standing under the bamboo.

Xiahou and how shrewd he was, he calculated the timing of the seven swords so that the bamboo wound would not fall, while Gu Yuexuan was forced by him to leave the escort Lu and the wooden box in his arms.

Facing such a fierce and sharp saber intent, Lu Biaotou had no chance to fight back at all.

Gu Yuexuan raised all his strength, jumped off the bamboo, and chased Xiahou and the knife in his hand with a palm.

That palm was extremely dangerous, if he miscalculated by one point, his five fingers would be cut off by that knife.But at this moment, Gu Yuexuan couldn't care less.

The Hero of the Water Margin faced the Thirteen Routes Juedao with his palm, and the blade deviated from Lu Biaotou's neck and landed on his right arm holding the wooden box.

Gu Yuexuan didn't dare to hesitate, and grabbed Lu Biaotou to his side with a move of anger, and there was already a bloodstain on the back of the hanging right hand.

After this move, he protected the person, Xia Houyu got the wooden box, his hand was paralyzed, and looking at Xia Houyu's face, he must have also suffered serious internal injuries.

At this time, only Lu Biao shouted loudly: "The roster—"

Hearing the sound of a sharp weapon piercing the air, Gu Yuexuan raised his head and watched a black-painted flying knife flying towards Lu Biaotou's back. The angle was too tricky, and he wanted to protect it but it was too late. I can only watch the knife go straight in.

Seeing this situation, even Xia Houyu's eyes changed.

On the other side of the bamboo forest, there was a man wearing a black gauze hat, throwing three throwing knives again, fleeing into the depths of the bamboo forest.

Gu Yuexuan hugged the body of Lu Biaotou who was unable to fall down, no matter whether he was hiding or fleeing, he was a little powerless.

Immediately after, a familiar saber intent approached from behind. It was different from the coldness of Xia Houyu's saber, but a stronger and more domineering saber technique—the saber knocked and flew three pieces towards him. The attacking flying blade pierced through the air, caught up with the assassin who was about to escape, and killed him with a single blow.

This pounce and slash were too clean and neat, even the sound of wind and rain stopped him.The person who made the attack stood between Gu Yuexuan and Xia Houyu, the blade had not been closed, and the killing intent was not exhausted.

Gu Yuexuan stared blankly at the back who was also wearing a black gauze hat, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

It was Xia Houyu who was on the opposite side who said first: "...Magic Saber?"

The man snorted coldly and didn't answer.

Xia Houyu clenched the wooden box in his hand, looked at the man, then at Gu Yuexuan, and said: "Withdraw."

He has achieved his goal, and he has no intention of becoming enemies of Gu Yuexuan and Jingji, so naturally he will not stay any longer.

The sound of the horse's hooves gradually faded away, but Gu Yuexuan still hugged Lu Biaotou, but couldn't take his eyes off the thorns.

After four years of separation, he didn't know whether the scene in front of him was an illusion or real.

Thorn withdrew the magic knife to his waist and didn't look back for a while.

On the other hand, Escort Lu leaned on Gu Yuexuan's shoulder, coughed softly and called out, "Gu, Hero Gu...Second Hero Jing..."

Thorn turned his head back, his brows under the bamboo hat were slightly frowned, as if he hadn't heard the title "Second Hero Jing" for a long time, and he was a little unaccustomed to it.

As soon as Gu Yuexuan touched the side of the man's face, Gu Yuexuan's heart stopped heavily, and he forced himself to lower his head, trying to calm down and said: "Don't worry, Chief Escort, I've stopped the bleeding for you, and I'll send you to the doctor right away."

Lu Biao grinned, with a streak of black blood spilling from his lips, and said with a bleak smile, "No need...the old man probably won't be able to hold on."

Thorn glanced at the assassin he beheaded in the bamboo forest, and said, "Tsk, the hidden weapon in Tianyi City is not poisonous."

Gu Yuexuan frowned and said, "Tianyi City?"

The killers and Tiqi of Tianyi City both coveted this dart, what is the purpose?

Lu Biaotou suddenly grabbed Gu Yuexuan's sleeve with all his strength, and said urgently: "The roster...they are also for...the roster."

Gu Yuexuan asked, "What roster?"

Lu Biaotou said: "...it is...it is a document left by Mr. Wu, the servant of the household department who just passed away in office a few days ago. Hero Gu should have heard from the leader of Dongfang... Dongchang and King Cheng Cough cough...Master Wu used to...was part of their party, but he came to his senses when he was seriously ill, and left evidence of his close contacts with other people... over the years."

When Gu Yuexuan heard this, he couldn't help being shocked.The situation in the court is changing, even if he hides in the rivers and lakes, he can't help but hear about it.With such a roster, it's no wonder Tiqi and Dongchang are flocking to it.Ti Qi wants it, of course, in order to eradicate the hidden dangers of the imperial court, and Dongchang wants it, because he wants to destroy the evidence of party formation and selfishness first, so he will silence all the insiders one by one.

Thorn spat: "Trouble."

Chief Lu was not angry, instead he grabbed Thorn's sleeve with his other hand, and said, "The old man was entrusted by Mr. Wu...to send this document to Luoyang...The leader of the Eastern alliance should know, what we are looking for Who is he...cough cough...but the old man is afraid now..."

Gu Yuexuan hurriedly said: "Don't be impatient, Chief Escort, Xia Houyu should not have gone far, the wooden box..."

Lu Biao cut it off and said: "No, it's not a wooden box. The documents...the documents are not in the wooden box."

Thorn frowned, but he didn't walk away, and said impatiently, "Where is it?"

Lu Biaotou said: "After the old man passed away... only my son Shaolin knew about it. Hero Gu, Erxia Jing, please, please..."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Jing Ji and Gu Yuexuan could reply, the hands that were holding their sleeves tightened suddenly, and they stopped moving.

The exasperated old escort still stared at the two people entrusted with a heavy responsibility, as if he was looking forward to the two entrusted with the heavy responsibility, but also looked at the unknown distance, the heavy twilight that was about to fall.
