Wang Beiwang turned around and asked a question about a man with frosty white temples wearing commoners. If he looked carefully, he saw that his appearance had been fine-tuned, his eyebrows were thickened with charcoal, his face was smeared with a layer of light gray, and there was a scar on the left side of his face. It seems to be a disguise, not like the real criminal wanted by the court?
The experienced Wang Beiwang suspected that there was something wrong with the other party's identity. He was either a wanted criminal or a spy from the Northern Dynasty.
When the two countries were at war, the Northern Dynasty sent spies to Beijing to spy on intelligence, and secretly caused troubles, which were all routine operations in war.
When Xu Chang was young, he served in the army. Wang Beiwang learned swordsmanship with him, and occasionally listened to Xu Chang talk about his military career.
"Yuanshi Tianzun?" The man asked again.
According to Wang Beiwang's character, he has to explore the other party's identity no matter what, but now although he is not a wanted criminal, he is more sensitive than a wanted criminal.
One more thing is worse than one less thing, so Wang Beiwang turned around and walked away, but remembering Hun Jun's explanation, he turned back and said, "Yes, I am Yuan Qi Tianzun."
Then, both sides stared at each other and nothing happened.
Wang Beiwang waited for the other party to ask: Where is Yuanshi Tianzun? But the other party just didn’t speak.
In the silent silence, the man with gray temples muttered: "You look so stupid, how can you be Yuanshi Tianzun? Who taught you these words?"
Wang Beiwang sneered: "Your Excellency, you have a sinister eyebrow and a mouse face, and you have a mouse-shaped head and eyes. Doesn't it look like you can be related to Yuanshi Tianzun?"
After expressing his condolences, he looked at the other person, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Just follow me."
He finally understood that the words Hunjun taught him were secret codes for communication, and only Hunjun's contacts could understand them.
The man with gray temples raised his heels, and Wang Beiwang took him back the way he came. Two-quarters of an hour later, Turtle Gong, who returned to the entrance of the Red Sleeve Pavilion, stopped the two of them and looked at Wang Beiwang with disgust: "Go, go, beg for food elsewhere."
Wang Beiwang kept a low profile and said: "Go in, turn left after entering the door, the deepest part."
He didn't go in. He stood at the door and looked in, signaling the middle-aged man to enter the lobby. He ignored the Madam's reception and went straight to Hunjun's table. He vaguely heard the little girl Jingwei shouting "Brother Red Rooster" with joy.
In the lobby, Zhang Yuanqing looked at Brother Red Chicken who was devouring his food and asked, "Why are you alone, where are the others?"
He ordered a table of dishes, but Xiao Yuan and his aunt didn't wait.
"I don't know!" Brother Red Rooster said, "I haven't seen them."
"Didn't you see me?" Zhang Yuanqing suddenly frowned: "According to the agreement, you should have met last night?"
"I didn't go at all." Brother Hongji said while eating: "The pair of shabby shoes you gave me almost killed me. After escaping from the palace that day, it pestered me to dance and asked me to dance with it. , I can’t dance, I didn’t dance well all night, I was kicked all night, and my bones were broken seven or eight times. I couldn’t stand it anymore, so I ran away, and it chased me, and I couldn’t fly without wings. Well, Do you have any raw porridge? Let the cook bring me a bowl."
"No, keep talking." Jiang Jingwei listened with great interest.
"The chicken is overnight, stale, and it's not white-cut chicken." Brother Red Chicken reluctantly swallowed the chicken pieces, and continued: "There is a curfew at night, and there are city defense troops everywhere, and you can't attract anyone's attention during the day. Really I had no choice but to bite the bullet and pay the price, so I escaped into a house, knocked out the head of the household, and then was trained by that pair of worn-out shoes in the yard. It took me two days of training and three days of life source liquid. Fourth pipe, I just successfully finished a tap dance yesterday, passed out, and rushed here as soon as I woke up."
"I thought about the beginning, but I never expected the ending." Zhang Yuanqiqing said with emotion: "Your dancing talent is really bad."
Brother Red Chicken said angrily: "Is this the point?"
Jiang Jingwei asked: "That family also fainted for two days?"
Brother Hongji was furious: "You can't grasp the key point. The key point is that I was trained by a pair of broken shoes for two days and almost died."
He drank tons and tons of white porridge and said, "I injected them with a little life source liquid, but they can't die."
"Give me back the red dancing shoes. This prop is a magical weapon. Young man, you can't control it." Deputy Zhang Yuanqing couldn't wait to take the prop back.
Brother Red Chicken hurriedly opened the inventory and threw away the red shoes like a hot potato.
Zhang Yuanqing held up the red dancing shoes and solemnly put them in the inventory and said, "If it were by my side, I wouldn't have to suffer so much these days. Eat quickly, and follow me to do errands after eating."
On the way to the Red Sleeve Pavilion, Wang Beiwang had found out that three hundred girls were gathered in the dungeon of the Criminal Department.
Only the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice can accommodate so many people. This is not a secret. The city guards can find out if you just ask the city defense troops. Even the people in the city know it. After all, there are not many people working in the imperial court.
Brother Red Rooster ate his food happily and asked in a confused tone: "Aren't you waiting for the Palace Master and Xiao Yuan? We are laying out the bed. Sun Miaomiao and Guan Ya are not found. The Queen is also missing. There are fewer and fewer people."
Zhang Yuanqing pondered and said, "We can let Wang Bei look outside a few times. Maybe Xiao Yuan and the palace master are looking for us too."
Brother Red Rooster asked: "Who is that fool?"
"NPC" Jiang Jingwei said.
"He is a knight." Zhang Yuanqing corrected.
Brother Hongji said "Oh" and glanced around the corridor on the second floor. Hehehe said: "It's a great place. If you're not in a hurry, I want to listen to music here."
Zhang Yuanqing said regretfully: "The brothel is closed during the day."
Brother Hongji also showed a look of regret. Wang Beiwang at the door was squatting on the ground, tinkering with the bowl, observing from time to time, waiting for Hunjun's order.
Tsk, how did I become Hunjun’s subordinate? I should kill him. Well, it was all for Xiu'er. I only tolerated him for a few days. Wang Beiwang touched the strong short beard and thought that was it.
At this time, he saw three strong-looking men wearing bunts and bright eyes walking from a distance, heading towards the Red Sleeve Pavilion with a clear purpose.
One has a thin face and bright and sharp eyes; the other has a stout figure and looks honest; the other has a full beard, eyes like copper bells, and a restless look between his brows.
They carried weapons wrapped in cloth strips on their backs and walked steadily.
As a well-known swordsman in the world, Wang Beiwang's eyes were slightly stern, and his instinct was wariness and hostility.
He saw that the three strong men were all martial arts practitioners, and their skills were not low.
The thin-faced man among the three middle-aged men seemed to be aware of it. He glanced at Wang Beiwang who was squatting at the door, and then immediately withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention.
Watching the three people enter the Red Sleeve Pavilion, Wang Beiwang stood up.
"Third gentlemen, is this your first time coming to the Red Sleeve Pavilion, or do you have a familiar lady?" Mr. Turtle greeted him diligently and asked formal questions.
The three middle-aged men ignored them, and their eyes swept across the lobby, passing over the few guests, and finally landed on Brother Red Rooster and Zhang Yuanqing. Their eyes met, and Zhang Yuanqing's expression changed.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man with a thin face pointed like a sword, and stabbed out with a "shoo" sound as fast as thunder, and the sharp sword energy hit Zhang Yuanqing's face directly.
swordsman? Zhang Yuanqing turned his head and flashed past the thin-faced middle-aged man who quickly took off the weapon on his back, shook off the cloth, pulled out a cold sword, and swept three steps at a time towards Zhang Yuanqing and the others.
The crescent-shaped sword energy roared out, before the middle-aged man slashed out the sword energy.
Zhang Yuanqing had a half-meter-long dagger in his hand. The handle had a ferocious face and two rubies embedded in it. He stepped on his feet and struck vertically with the dagger.
The sword energy was shattered by the dagger, and dispersed into energy as thin as a hair, sputtering in all directions, creating dense pits on the ground and table.
Jiang Jingwei, who was weak in strength, could not avoid it. His chest, shoulders and face were splashed with energy, which instantly turned into bloody mouths.
Deputy Zhang Yuanqing's tiger's mouth cracked open, blood flowed, and his heart was filled with fear.
Level 5 swordsman? !
Wang Beiwang at the door rushed into the lobby and was about to help. When he saw this was the curtain, he silently withdrew again, Chang Lao-level powerhouse!
In the hall, the man with a thick build and a dull expression pulled out the weapon from the cloth, which was a black iron and copper weapon. He rushed towards him with heavy steps, and the entire ground of the hall shook with his footsteps.
This earth monster, no, a mountain god. . Zhang Yuanqing grabbed Jingwei's shoulder, pushed him to the side, pushed him out for more than ten meters, and then dissipated into starlight before the black iron mace struck him.
"Crack!"
The round table and bowls and chopsticks fell apart under the heavy blow of the black iron mace. Zhang Yuanqing appeared on the second floor, overlooking the lobby, and saw Brother Red Rooster and the strong man with restlessness between his brows, each holding a flaming knife against each other, and the two swords exploded. Thousands of red flowing fires spread out in all directions, igniting the surrounding tables, chairs, and window frames.
"How dare you assassinate me?" Zhang Yuanqing shouted.
At the same time, he secretly controlled the emotions of the fire master. The fire master suddenly raised his head, looked at Zhang Yuanqing on the second floor, and roared: "Hunjun, back then the Queen Mother killed General Wu and the soldiers of the Shenrui Army. This time You’ll pay the debt!”
After saying that, the flames in his palm condensed, shaped, and compressed into a crimson spear, which was thrown towards him.
The swordsman and the mountain god rose into the air and jumped to the second floor.
"Take the Jingwei and leave." Zhang Yuanqing shouted loudly, sideways to avoid the throw of the flame gun, and then like a prophet, when the fire expanded, he slashed out the fire demon and forcibly interrupted the fire skill!
At this time, the swordsman landed lightly on the fence on the second floor and killed Zhang Yuan Qiqing with his sword, trying to draw him into a close fight.
The mountain god smashed the fence and hit like an armored vehicle. Zhang Yuanqing turned into starlight again and dissipated, appearing a few meters away. He put away his short knife, put on the windbreaker's gloves, and threw out two wind blades.
The swordsman nimbly avoided it, while the mountain god charged against the wind blade, completely ignoring the translucent "blade" that cut through gold and jade.
Zhang Yuanqing did not use the Star Escape Technique anymore, and directly swam invisibly at night. He then used the wind blade to glide half a circle, came to the back of the fifth-level swordsman, summoned a short sword, and quickly pierced the opponent's back.
Ding!
The tip of the knife pierced the spine of the sword. The swordsman still stood with his back turned, but the sword in his hand blocked the moment the dagger struck.
Huh, assassins value their minds being as calm as water and not ripples in ancient wells. With such a strong killing intent, "Your Majesty has cultivated his strength but not his heart, so he has fallen behind."
The swordsman sneered and turned around to attack.
After Zhang Yuanqing received two more blows, he broke away from the close combat and continued to fight with the two enemies. In the lobby downstairs, Brother Red Rooster and the fire demons of the Shenrui Army fought each other, setting fire to their heart's content, and the guests dining in the hall scattered in all directions. He fled, but the guests in the room were too scared to come out.
Seeing the opportunity, Wang Bei rushed into the lobby, carried Jiang Jingwei on his back, and left. As soon as he rushed out of the gate of the Red Sleeve Pavilion, he saw a city defense army approaching quickly, with their armor and stomachs clanging, swords on their backs and bows, and a dozen cavalry led by fully armed soldiers with a cold and stern temperament. He's a master at first sight.
Did the city defense army come so quickly?
Wang Beiwang quickly lowered his head and ran away with Jiang Jingwei on his back. The leading cavalry reined in the reins, drew out their swords, and shouted loudly: "Kill the traitors in the Red Sleeve Pavilion, men, women, old and young, without mercy."
The soldiers behind them accepted the promise and swarmed in. The soldiers rushed into the hall. With a glance, some of them drew their bows and arrows and shot at the two sides fighting on the second floor. The other group spread out two large silver-white nets to target the two men. Fire demon.
Seeing this, the fire demon who was born in the Shen Rui Army used fire to avoid the big net. The red-eyed red chicken brother was not afraid of tigers. He brandished the flaming sword and slashed at the silver net that was covering his head.
The flame knife containing high temperature failed to cut through and burned the silver net. Brother Red Chicken couldn't avoid it and was covered in it.
Five or six warriors came forward with their swords, slashing and bursting with fire, cracking the silver net and sending the soldiers flying. Brother Red Rooster directly activated the rager skill.
On the other side, arrows were shooting like rain, and the sound was constant. The tail fins were trembling and nailed to the doors, windows and walls of the second floor. The city defense troops swarmed upstairs, brandishing steel knives.
Zhang Yuanqing watched six directions and listened in all directions. After seeing what Brother Red Rooster had just experienced, he immediately said: "The army of this era can kill practitioners, so don't be stubborn and retreat."
After that, he put on the robe of yin and yang, turned into starlight and appeared on the roof, then made a fireball and "Boom!"
The fireball expanded, and Brother Red Rooster emerged from the red flames. The two of them ran wildly on the roof, sometimes using star escape techniques, sometimes using fire techniques, and they quickly moved away from the roof of the Red Sleeve Pavilion.
With a "rumbling" sound, the fire demons and swordsmen of the Divine Army broke through the roof, following closely behind.
The mountain god was running wildly in pursuit through the streets, followed by the city army behind him.
The people on the street fled in all directions and hid in a hurry.
"Didn't you say that Li Bi Tuoba is a wise enemy of the Imperial Preceptor? You still love to brag so much when you are an emperor!" Wang Beiwang muttered in his heart, hugged Jiang Jingwei, quietly disappeared into the crowd, and fled.
Brother Red Rooster jumped up and jumped over a roof. He looked back and saw two horses chasing after him. He immediately said: "You go first and leave me alone."
The opponent also has a fire demon. If he uses the fire method, he may become a springboard for the enemy to get close. However, if he does not use the fire method, he cannot escape the pursuit of both sides, because there are scout swordsmen on both sides who are good at tracking, so he can only let Yuanshi Tianzun. Go first.
If I had known, I would have collected a few night travel props. Zhang Yuanqing's thoughts changed quickly. He had no problem escaping. After all, whether it is an illusionist or a night traveler, I can run faster.
But it was difficult for Brother Red Rooster to escape the pursuit of the city defense army and the saints of the Shen Rui Army. This battle came out of nowhere. The Shen Rui Army was obviously coming for him, but knowing his identity, even the Zheng family didn’t know where he was hiding. , how did the Shen Rui Army know?
No, the Zheng family may know, because the city defense army came very strangely. Zhang Yuanqing has been hiding from the city defense army in the past two days and is very familiar with their movement patterns, member distribution, and efficiency.
The city defense troops came too fast. If this was a tactic, there might be many city defense troops nearby, forming an encirclement. Brother Red Rooster would have to give up his ten lives here.
Then he felt something in his heart and said, "Follow me to the Criminal Department."
