The siege has come to an end at this moment. The two remaining monks from the other side have no strength to fight anymore. Whether their lives will come to an end depends on Chen Chao's thoughts.
Chen Chao casually found a knife on the ground. After holding it in his hand, he shook his head in disgust, then walked to the sword cultivator and slowly squatted down.
"What about you? Are you willing to tell me the answer?" Jian Xiu's face turned pale. His flying sword was destroyed and he had been seriously injured. Facing Chen Chao at this moment, he had no means at all.
Jian Xiu remained silent and did not answer Chen Chao's question. Chen Chao did not speak, but pressed the tip of the knife against Jian Xiu's heart. However, he did not penetrate his heart directly, but slowly pulled it down. Soon, a blood stain appeared on Jian Xiu's body, spreading down to his lower abdomen. superior.
Jian Xiu was suddenly sweating profusely, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to say a single word.
"Still a tough guy." Chen Chao said to himself, then raised the tip of the knife and continued to draw a long bloody mark on his body.
Up and down, Chen Chao didn't speak again for half an hour, but just kept leaving wounds on the sword cultivator.
"Chen Chao, since you are considered a martial artist, give me a good one!" The sword cultivator was in pain and couldn't bear it anymore. He gritted his teeth and said,
"You know, even if I tell you the answer, it will still be the word "death" in the end. Why bother to push me so hard?!" Chen Chao asked curiously: "Why is it now that I have to push you so hard? When you come to kill me , but you didn’t say that you wanted to reason with me, nor did you think of trying to force me.” Chen Chao stared at the sword cultivator in front of him, and said with a smile: “You guys have finished explaining the truth, so what do I say? Can't we just use the sword to talk about other things?" The sword cultivator turned pale and gritted his teeth.
Chen Chao nodded and said with a smile: "I like you as a tough guy. It doesn't matter. It's still a long time before dawn. Take your time. I'm not in a hurry anyway." In the next half hour, Chen Chao As expected, he didn't say a word, but left wounds on the sword cultivator in front of him again and again.
The sword cultivator could hold on at first, but later he couldn't help but scream. However, this person really exceeded Chen Chao's expectations. No matter how the wound was left on him, he didn't tell Chen Chao in the end. A useful message.
Soon, he was dying. Chen Chao sighed, not that he was surprised, and finally looked at the bloody guy, and then cut off his head with a knife.
Holding the head, Chen Chao stood up slowly, walked slowly to the monk who had been nailed to the beam, then casually threw the head out, kicked it into the ruins, and then stretched out He touched the tip of the knife with his fingers and looked at the monk in front of him and smiled.
The monk who has been nailed to this beam has been watching Chen Chao torture the sword cultivator before, and he is already frightened. In his eyes, Chen Chao is undoubtedly a demon from hell. Now he is watching Chen Chao walking towards him. , he had been so frightened that his face turned pale. If he hadn't been nailed to the beam, he would have collapsed on the ground.
"To be honest, these things I did before were all for you to see. I already knew that guy wouldn't say anything. But as for you, I think you can still say something, and you have seen it. If you don't tell me, I guarantee you will end up worse than him." Chen Chao used the tip of his knife to open up the monk's clothes, revealing his thin body. Chen Chao tutted, "You are quite white."
"I just lost a little weight. I don't know how long it will last." Chen Chao's knife tip kept swiping on the skin of the monk in front of him, but it never came down hard.
The monk felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his face was extremely ugly, and he tremblingly said, "Kill me." Chen Chao remained unmoved.
After a while, Chen Chao exerted a little force and pressed the knife in his hand against the opponent's heart, cutting the skin. Blood beads spilled out before his eyes. Chen Chao smiled and said: "It seems that you don't like this scene very much. I reluctantly help you." He He tore off a piece of cloth, covered the eyes of the monk in front of him, and then said softly: "I will only give you one chance. If you don't want it, don't blame me." After saying this, Chen Chao never said anything again. Open your mouth.
Time passed bit by bit, and not long after, the monk said tremblingly: "I told you, I will die, and my family will be implicated!" Chen Chao said with a smile: "It's the same death, which kind of death?" Is it more painful, you don’t know it yourself? What’s more, you have to understand that after tonight, everything is possible. I promise, as long as you tell me what I want to know, I will let you go and I will never break my promise."
"Seriously?!" Chen Chao said with a smile, "It seems you have no choice."
"What do you want to know?" The monk's face turned pale. He couldn't bear the pain, so he spoke.
"Who wants to kill me?" Chen Chao stared into his eyes without any emotion.
"Huainan Marquis Song Ting." The monk hesitated for a moment and finally revealed the person behind the scenes. Chen Chao frowned slightly. Song Ting, Marquis of Huainan, knew that this dynasty had only been more than ten years old and there were not many outstanding military men. The general who was granted the title of Duke of Yang before his death was already the dynasty’s leader. The highest reward, under this, only two princes were awarded.
Zhang Yu, the Zhongyong Marquis, and Song Ting, the Marquis of Huainan. Both of them were generals who followed the Emperor of Liang in the war. They made great contributions in that battle, so they were granted the title of marquis. However, one of them, Song Ting, was deprived of a lot of money due to the murder of his son in his early years. Apart from the title, his official position has almost no real power. In the past ten years, he has long faded out of the sight of many important people in the city of God, and is regarded as having no choice but to live out his life.
Now that Chen Chao heard Song Ting's name here, he was a little surprised.
"How could he plan such a killing without any power? Who are the others?" Since Song Ting does not have real power in his hands, it is not easy to plan this assassination. At least at this moment, if he wants to To assassinate Chen Chao not far from Zuowei's Yamen, Zuowei needed to be able to keep away any news. Such a thing was not something that a Marquis of Huainan could do.
"There are a few others who are all veterans who have fought with His Majesty..." Now that the monk had spoken, he simply said all of these names at once.
Chen Chao squinted his eyes, and he could probably guess why. The courtiers in the court, whether they are loyal to Emperor Liang or the deposed emperor, actually don't have to worry too much about who will sit on that chair in the future. After all, when the new emperor ascends the throne, as long as he appears to surrender, There is no need to worry about the new master going on a killing spree, but these old ministers who followed the Emperor of the Liang Dynasty have no choice but to worry, because they were once rebels and rebels against the party. If the former prince's lineage becomes the master of the Liang Dynasty again , then they will definitely be liquidated.
In order to protect ourselves, we must kill this possibility. Chen Chao smiled, it was reasonable.
It's understandable, but not necessarily acceptable. Chen Chao nodded, and after remembering the names, he took out the cloud mud nailed to the monk's body and said with a smile: "Okay, you can go." The monk was startled and covered the wound.
"You really don't want to kill me?" Chen Chao held the knife, letting the blood drip from the knife, then turned around, not wanting to pay attention to the other party at all.
Before leaving the small courtyard, Chen Chao sheathed his sword and remained silent. ......... A carriage drove towards the imperial city in the night. There were people waiting in front of the palace gate for a long time. The tall man who got out of the carriage glanced at the quiet chamberlain guarding the palace gate, nodded, and then followed him. Enter the imperial city.
Along the way, Li Heng, who is now the head of the chamberlain, did not speak. Another person who was once evaluated by Emperor Liang was,
"Zhang Yucai is wise and brave, and he should be the first in terms of merit." The man said nothing. The two of them were actually old friends, but they were both silent at the moment.
It wasn't until the two of them arrived at the Bailu Garden that Li Heng stopped and said with a soft smile, "Your Majesty is waiting inside." Zhang Yu nodded slightly, without saying much, turned around and stepped into the Bailu Garden.
Not long after, he saw His Majesty the Emperor under the pavilion. In fact, the monarch and his ministers have not met alone for many years.
Zhang Yu was silent as he looked at the Emperor whom he had sworn to follow for the rest of his life. Emperor Liang asked: "How is it?" Zhang Yu said softly: "The siege can't be successful, he already knows the plan." When speaking, although Zhang Yu tried his best to calm down, he still seemed a little excited.
He participated in this siege and knew how many people put in so much effort. It was not easy for a warrior from the Other Side Realm to leave that small courtyard alive.
I'm afraid it's hard to find another young warrior like this in the Liang Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, I am subject to death!" Zhang Yu suddenly knelt down, but his expression was calm. Emperor Liang looked at Zhang Yu, shook his head and said: "You are different from them. They are worried about themselves. You are really thinking about me. But after so many years, you seem to think that I have changed. What do you want to do? I don’t even want to read the book, do you really think I can’t even read it?” Zhang Yu remained silent.
Emperor Liang smiled and said,
"Do you really think that I can't understand a little guy and am so reluctant to part with that chair?" Zhang Yu said softly: "How will your Majesty deal with them?" Emperor Liang shook his head and said: "I can't do anything. Since I brought it upon myself, I If we don't help each other, we have ended our long-standing friendship, and I have a clear conscience when we meet underground later."
"Zhang Yu, are you also curious about what that boy will do when he knows the truth?" Emperor Daliang suddenly spoke, speaking calmly.
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. Although he had been assassinated, if he knew the truth and faced such a situation, the young man would probably be troubled for a long time.
After all, he is now at the center of the storm, and every move he makes may bring about a different development trajectory for things.
His life and death seemed to change at any time. Emperor Liang said: "Let's wait and see."...Song Lian, together with the government servants on the left guard and a group of strong men, joined forces with the right guard to finally kill the monsters that appeared inexplicably in the capital of the gods, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. His expression suddenly changed.
He had been thinking about one thing before, why these monsters appeared in the usually calm God. At this moment, he finally figured it out. Song Lian turned to look at Ye Dayuan not far away, his eyes cold.
The latter turned his head with a guilty conscience, not daring to look at the left-back commander.
"Ye Dayuan, sooner or later I will have to settle tonight's matter with you. Damn, if something really happens, I'll have to peel off your skin even if I don't take the official position!" Song Lian was extremely angry, but he didn't mind. He did not stay here longer, but left quickly, leading the people towards the small courtyard near Zuowei Yamen.
But when he arrived at the small courtyard, all he saw was ruins. A small courtyard has now been almost razed to the ground.
All the left guard officials looked at each other in confusion. Song Lian rushed into the small courtyard and saw only corpses on the ground. After rummaging for a while, he found no trace of Chen Chao. He breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was still ugly.
Song Lian shouted angrily,
"I'll go out and look for him. I'll search everything to find Deputy Commander Chen!" The officials didn't dare to neglect. In all these years, they had never seen the commander act so rude, and they quickly dispersed. Open and head towards the divine capital.
Song Lian pulled Weng Quan away.
"Go to the academy and tell Miss Xie what's going on here!" Weng Quan was still a little confused, but after hearing these words, he ran towards the academy without any hesitation.
Song Lian stood there, his heart filled with rage. He couldn't wait to find Ye Dayuan right now and peel off the skin of that dog.
In just a moment, the left-back commander made up his mind and gritted his teeth.
"Follow me to the right guard!"... It was another restless night. The door of that elegant courtyard was closed.
But soon there was a knock on the door. After hearing the noise, the concierge muttered a few times, then reluctantly rubbed his eyes and came to open the door. Seeing a young man standing in front of the door, he couldn't help but be a little scornful and asked impatiently: "What are you doing? "?" The young man in black stood in front of the door and said with a smile: "He's here to kill someone."
