Although Hongpao was defeated by Jiang Ningxue, his martial arts skills were still there. He dodged left and right under the heavy crossbows of the Jin army before, and swung the knife in front of him to block it. He finally managed to escape under the rain of arrows. Although he was hit by an arrow in his shoulder, he still managed to hold on so that the young man and others had no time to care about their own affairs and ran away towards the approaching Jin army with knives.
"I and..." Red Robe shouted, howling at the Jin army who had murderous intent in their eyes. Compared with these armored men, the young man behind him was the one he truly feared.
Unexpectedly, the generals of the Jin army had already regarded him as a person who would be promoted and rewarded. How could he listen to his words? What's more, it was difficult for people in the army to recognize the officials in the court. These soldiers had never heard of Lu Can's name. Dozens of them ran to see him. Come, wield your sword and spear, and come slashing and stabbing.
The red robe's martial arts realm was no match for the young man and the white-clothed fairy, but it was more than enough to deal with dozens of heavily armored soldiers. However, the red robe still hoped that these Jin soldiers could save his life from the young man's hands. In the face of slashes and stabs, he only dared to dodge, not dare. Go out to meet the enemy.
But in the eyes of the heavily armored Jin army, this ugly-looking man only dodged without attacking. Instead, he looked down on everyone. The siege became more and more intense. They quickly killed the man so that they could chase the young man and snatch him away. Great credit.
Just as the soldiers were rushing to attack, they heard the order from the general behind them: "Don't be too eager to fight. Chase the young man quickly. Just leave this man to us and Mr. Yi!"
After giving the military order, the generals no longer cared about this ugly man and chased the young man out of the forest.
Hongpao had a chance to breathe, and a sharp pain came from his shoulder. He collapsed on the ground. Suddenly he remembered something and hurriedly explained to the three people who were riding the horses out of the forest.
"General... General, I am Murong Valley Murong Ying... don't ask for
Misunderstanding, I and the little thief in green shirt are not on the same page! "
The generals of the two battalions on the left and right had already agreed with the masked man that they would exchange his life for the commander's confidence. However, the soldiers around them were not far away. The two looked at each other, one pretended to ask, and the other quickly scolded his soldiers for chasing the young man. go.
The general stopped, looked at the panic in red robe, tilted his head slightly, looked at the murderous eyes in the forest behind him, and said calmly: "Oh? The Shillong Mountains are so long and uninhabited, how could it be such a coincidence? You Are you in the same place as that boy?"
The red robe didn't know that there was any deceit, but he knew that the general of the Jin army did not believe him, so he quickly said, "It's a coincidence that the general believed in me... By the way, I... I have evidence to prove that I was entrusted by the Jin envoy."
In the eyes of the two generals, it was no longer important whether this person was entrusted by Jin. They only wanted this person's life. They looked at each other and saw murderous intent in each other's eyes. They nodded slightly, and then the general turned his eyes and said sternly. : "Since there is evidence, it's easy to say."
Hearing this, Hongpao felt overjoyed that he was out of danger. He didn't care about the arrow wound on his body. When he was about to take out the token to express his gratitude, he was stopped by another general: "The two of us are just following orders. We still need to act quickly." The army is chasing the enemy. Let's do this. You take the token and go to the forest behind the two of us to meet a person. As long as he believes in you, you will be an ally of our army."
After the two of them finished speaking, they no longer paid attention to the red robes in front of them, and rode away in pursuit of the soldiers under their command.
The Jin army in the forest came and went faster. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him anymore, he just chased the young man and his party away. Hongpao suddenly felt strange, but he couldn't explain why the second general of the Jin army didn't seem to care whether he was accepted by the Jin army. Tuo, remembering the words of the two generals when they left, I raised my head
Looking into the forest.
The moonlight that was still visible just now seemed to be obscured by the clouds in the night, and the forest ahead was already dark. The red robe felt an ominous feeling in his heart, and his desire to move forward stopped instantly.
When he was weighing whether to go further into the forest, he heard the sound of horse hooves on the snow in the forest, and a man was driving the horse slowly out of the forest.
Seeing that this man was not wearing any armor, he was only wearing a black robe and a black gauze covering his face. But his demeanor was different from others... Recalling the words of the two generals before, the red robe only said that this man was The person in charge of the Jin army quickly put on a respectful posture and said, "Sir, I am from Murong Valley..."
Just when he was about to speak, he heard this person interrupt him: "I heard what you and the two generals of the left and right camps just said in the forest. I have a few words to ask you."
The arrow wound caused severe pain, but the red robe still saluted respectfully: "My lord, if you have something to ask, I should tell you everything I know."
"Where did the boy in green shirt come from?" the masked man asked,
His gaze was actually looking past the red-robed figure to the back of the Jin army that was not yet far away.
"This... Sir, I don't know where that boy came from. I only know that he is not weak in martial arts. I was entrusted by my colleagues to assassinate the patrolling general, but this boy stopped me. I... No, the villain was also injured by him, but don’t worry, sir, that kid can’t escape from the palm of your hand!”
The red robe replied that the masked man was still doubting him. After flattering him, he hurriedly endured the arrow wound on his shoulder, tore open his clothes and showed him the arrow wound on the young man's chest to clear the air.
The masked man withdrew his gaze, fell on Murong Ying's chest, stared at it for a moment, and continued to ask: "So, you are just an assassin.
, even I don’t know about such confidential matters, how could you know that it was me who sent the envoy to the valley? Are you trying to deceive me with this little lie? "
"I don't dare to lie. Originally, I took over the mission in the valley. I didn't know it was... the order of the Jin envoy. It's just... it's just..."
Seeing the impatience shown on the face of this "elder" of the Jin Dynasty, in order to gain trust and survive, he could only reveal his deepest secret: "The villain has been ugly since he was a child... and as he grew older, he had no women. Favor, little man...There is a secret passage in the valley for...peeping, and that day when the Jin envoy entered the valley, I happened to overhear it."
While the two were talking, the masked man saw from the corner of his eye that all the Jin troops had entered the forest. Only the masked man and himself were left, and murderous intent arose in his heart.
When Hongpao saw "Master", he no longer asked any questions. He only said that he had gained his trust. Just when he was rejoicing that he was lucky enough to survive, he suddenly felt that the momentum in the forest had changed...
The strong wind that had clearly stopped in the Shillong Mountains suddenly reappeared. Looking up, I saw a knife in the hand of the "sir" in front of me. As the knife appeared, wailing and shouting gradually rose in the forest. Voices.
"You...you are not from the Jin army...no, those Jin generals just now clearly...who are you!" A look of fear appeared on the ugly face in the red robe. The masked man only showed his weapon, then Inciting the celestial phenomena, how could such a martial artist be the leader of the Jin army?
Just when Hongpao was asking questions, the masked man jumped up from his horse and landed in front of Hongpao. He seemed to be in no hurry to take Hongpao's life. His cultivation was displayed in front of him, and he just wanted to make noise. The bigger the better.
Looking back slightly, looking at the way he came, he could hear the faint sound of marching troops.
At the sound of footsteps, the masked man turned his eyes to the frightened Hongpao and spoke slowly, more like mumbling to himself than talking about Yu Hongpao.
"One has two Wus and three Duanmu, four Chu, five guards and six Linghu. The seventh son, Shangguan, is good at divination. Together with Qi Yun, the sun never sets."
Every word, like a thunder, exploded in Hongpao's heart, so that the ugly face gradually became distorted, and his fingers covered his face. When he spoke, he couldn't form a sentence: "You...you are not Jin...why... ..”
Almost at the same time, the red robe ignored the arrow wounds on his body, pointed his toes quickly, and wanted to use Qinggong to get up. Unexpectedly, he only got up for a moment, and saw the falling snow that was swept around him by the strong wind and stopped in front of him.
Although his eyes were wide open and he couldn't believe it, he was driven by the desire to survive in his heart and had no time to think about anything else. He was running his dantian zhenqi and wanted to leave... But when he found that the surrounding scenery had not changed and his eyes moved slightly, he I found that I was as different as the falling snow in this area, frozen in the air.
I wanted to open my mouth to beg for mercy, but found that I couldn't even make a sound at this time. I could only move my eyes. Looking out of the corner of my eye, I saw the man wearing a black robe covering his face and carrying a single sword, which seemed to blend in with the night. Death-seeking Yama approached him step by step with a steady pace. When he was angry, he not only stirred up the snow on the ground, but also rolled up the soil and gravel under the snow...
It wasn't until these gravels destroyed all the trees in the forest and made them appear in a mess that they spoke.
"As a member of Qi Yun, no matter in the rivers, lakes or temples, we should serve the country at the top and the people at the bottom. It is because of villains like you who are able to sell their martial arts for a small profit, so that others can take advantage of it. Chu Yi Yan Dao, I will take your life today...
"
The sound of calling for life reached his ears, and the red-robed man opened his mouth to scream. He could only watch the masked figure soar into the air, and the dark knife slowly passed through his throat. I don't know if it was the knife that was too fast or his body. There is no feeling in the "realm" where the face is covered, blood slowly appears in front of the eyes, but there is no pain at all, only
Only when the scene in front of you is getting darker can you know life and death...
The red robe could not be seen in the environment, but Chun Yufu, who was rushing behind him with his army, could clearly see the scene in front of him. The masked figure was like lightning, but the knife in his hand was faster. He could only see the dark light shining in the underworld, and the person trapped in the masked state could The victim's throat was wiped instantly, and when the body fell, blood sprayed from the throat and fell like rain.
He covered his face and settled down, as if he still hadn't relieved himself yet, he sneered and shouted: "How dare you stop me, Qingshan will be next!"
He covered his face and looked at the red-robed corpse on the ground, raising his single eye slightly. There were no Jin soldiers in the forest ahead, and the movement behind him also fell into his ears. He didn't need to look back to know that all the killings he had done just now had fallen into Chunyu Fu's eyes.
Scanning his eyes quickly, he used his internal force to stir up the dirt and gravel under the snow, leaving traces of fighting on the surrounding tree trunks. He felt relieved and thought to himself: "The timing is just right, but I don't know if I can deceive this." people."
Thinking in his mind, the sound of clapping hands could be heard in his ears. He looked back and saw Chun Yufu coming with his army with an expressionless face.
After shaking off the blood on the knife, he wrapped himself in his broad robe and found that the sword of hell was gone. With his face covered, he rushed towards the commander, clasped his fists and said, "You made the general laugh!"
"Hahaha, why are you laughing? Brother Yi is so powerful that he is the one who opened our army's eyes..." Although Chun Yufu smiled up to the sky, the guard in his eyes did not fade away. When the laughter fell, there was confusion on his face.
, his eyes moved to the red-robed corpse, and he asked.
Covering his face, he followed the plan in his mind and said angrily with a look of regret on his face: "General, I, along with the two generals from the left and right battalions, led the army to pursue this place and found traces of the young man in green shirt. We were able to easily take off his head. , how could I expect that this person risked his life to stop me. This person is not weak in martial arts. I was worried that the two generals and the sergeants under my command would be injured, so I asked the two generals to lead the army to pursue the young man, and I stayed to entangle with this person."
Chunyu Fu was not in a hurry to inquire about the young man's whereabouts. He only turned his gaze to the surroundings. In this forest, whether it was a mess on the tree trunks or on the ground, there were traces of a fight. His doubts subsided and he said, "Okay, although I haven't beheaded the young man yet. Brother Yi, I have already recorded this feat, and I would like to ask you to lead the way. We will lead the army to help the two battalions on the left and right!"
"I will obey the general's orders!"
Looking at the back of the masked man who turned to lead the way, the smile on Chun Yufu's lips disappeared. Although he had killed the young "accomplice" in front of himself and the Jin army officers and soldiers, he did not leave any survivors alive. It is impossible to identify who this person is.
With suspicion in his heart, Chunyu Fu rode his horse past the red-robed corpse. No one among the tens of thousands of Jin army soldiers paid attention to the lifeless red-robed corpse on the ground.
As the army gradually disappeared into the forest, the red-robed man who escaped from Gu Xiao's sword by virtue of his natural body was gradually drowned by the wind and snow, and died in the Shillong Mountains.
