The living room of the Governor's Mansion was very large. The man was sitting where the moonlight could not reach him, but he could only vaguely see a figure.
But he couldn't be sure whether it was Xiao Agu.
Suddenly, Zhao Lian looked at the wall of the living room, and a doubt arose in his heart. If the copper and iron walls around him were put down, and under the darkness, how could he have fought with Xiao Agu before?
He and Xiao Agu were just the same, how could those Khitan soldiers accurately distinguish between him and Xiao Agu in the dark?
Is it really just an illusion?
But this illusion is too real!
If it was an illusion just now, how could he prove that what he saw now was not an illusion?
For a moment, he couldn't tell what was an illusion and what was reality.
But then he thought about it, did he need to distinguish between illusion and reality?
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is not necessary. It is just a repeat of the previous scene.
So what if we do it again? He, Zhao Lian, may not be afraid anymore?
Before this trip, life and death had been ignored, not to mention that he had already died once. This time, Xiao Agu had to be killed no matter what, just to make a living.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be a wasted death?
Well, no matter what the hell the situation is, just kill Xiao Agu first!
Having made up his mind, Zhao Lian pushed open the floor tiles and jumped out of the hole like last time.
Let the floor tiles close automatically, making a dull sound, and then his body flashed to one side, hiding in the darkness, and at the same time, using the sound of the floor tiles to cover up, he ran towards the figure.
When he was approaching, he stepped forward and punched out a punch, which was like a landslide, crushing the figure on the head.
The roar of the fist made the figure's robes flutter, but the figure seemed to be frightened and remained motionless, as if he had forgotten to resist.
Zhao Lian was ecstatic in his heart. If he were to hit him with this punch, even an iron head would be able to create a hole for him.
But where does the wind come from?
It is true that his punches are accompanied by wind, but his fists are fierce, how can they be so gentle and caressing?
Then, he discovered something even bigger was wrong.
His fist seemed to be blocked by something.
The figure's head was close at hand, but his fist seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall.
In the darkness, Zhao Lian's face was full of horror and disbelief.
He knew very well what his strength was, and it was precisely because he knew it that he felt horrified and incredible.
His punch can break a wall made of bluestone, and even gold and iron can be broken into pieces.
But his punch landed on the invisible barrier. Although the wind of the fist was surging and the power of the fist was overflowing, he could not move forward at all!
Horrified, Zhao Lian didn't stop. Since this direction didn't work, he continued in another direction, twisted his body and struck his elbow down, hitting the figure directly in the back of the head.
If this move succeeds, it will definitely lead to death.
However, the invisible barrier appeared again, blocking Zhao Lian's elbow.
"It feels like this again!"
Zhao Lian gritted his teeth, moved around, changed direction again, raised his knees and bumped into him.
As he expected, the invisible barrier appeared again, blocking him and the figure.
"Damn it, I don't believe it!"
Zhao Lian cursed angrily and circled around the figure. His fists fell like raindrops and punched the figure one after another.
He didn't care whether he was hurt or not. As long as he could break through the invisible barrier and touch the figure, he would feel satisfied.
However, no matter which direction Zhao Lian attacked from, no matter how much strength he used, no matter what techniques he used, he could not break through the invisible barrier.
That invisible barrier was like a chasm, as if he couldn't cross it no matter what.
Suddenly, Zhao Lian thought of a possibility. Could this invisible barrier be the legendary body-protecting aura?
As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Lian was horrified. Zhao Lian was horrified. He quickly closed his fists and retreated, reaching a distance that he thought was safe. He stared at the unreal figure, suppressing the feeling in his heart. Horrified, he shouted: "You are definitely not Xiao Agu, who are you?"
At this moment, he didn't need to worry about whether he would make too much noise to attract the attention of the Khitan soldiers outside. If the man in front of him was really a master of cultivating body-protecting energy, he would not have any chance of survival.
Of course, judging from the methods just now, even if this person is not the kind of peerless master who can refine the body-protecting energy, he will most likely not be an opponent.
Judging from her attitude of not moving a finger just now and letting him attack, she didn't take him seriously at all.
"Of course I am not Xiao Agu!"
To Zhao Lian's surprise, this master, who had not taken him seriously at all, actually answered his question.
But, why does this voice sound so familiar?
"Are you Mr. Jiang?"
After being stunned for a while, Zhao Lian asked tentatively after finding a similar voice in his memory.
"Yes, it's me!"
Jiang Yunqing raised his head and lightly snapped his fingers.
The next moment, the candlesticks and lanterns in the living room seemed to have received some kind of instructions and lit themselves up one after another.
In just one or two breaths, the originally dark living room became as bright as welcoming guests.
Zhao Lian subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his eyes. After he got used to it a little, he put his hand down. He first looked around, but after finding nothing, he looked at Jiang Yunqing.
"Mr. Jiang, why are you here? Where is Xiao Agu?"
"Xiao Agu has died a long time ago, and Yunzhou City has already fallen into our hands. However, the Khitan in the north is in serious trouble. Thinking that the city is isolated and unsustainable, we simply replaced Xiao Agu and kept it as it is. !" Jiang Yunqing explained.
"Then why did Sir ask me to assassinate Xiao Agu? And just now, I seemed to have assassinated Xiao Agu only once before, but for some reason I returned to the passage? How come I become sir now?"
Zhao Lian continued to ask. At this moment, he felt as if he had a hundred thousand whys stuffed in his head, and he was not happy without vomiting.
"Of course it is to test you, to test whether you have really woken up, and to test whether you still remember the agreement between us when life and death are at stake!"
Jiang Yunqing stood up and said with a smile: "And the assassination you experienced before was to test your illusion, just like this..."
As he spoke, Jiang Yunqing raised his hand and waved lightly, flicking his sleeves, and the entire living room fell into darkness in an instant.
Suddenly, a dim light appeared in the darkness. I could still feel that it was still darkness, but I could see things in the darkness.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Zhao Lian, but it was Xiao Agu who he had assassinated before.
Zhao Lian shuddered and punched out, but he staggered through it. When he looked back, the light had returned to the living room, and the flickering flames on the candlestick were particularly real, but also It's so unreal.
Swallowing, he really couldn't tell what was illusion and what was reality.
He could only look at Jiang Yunqing eagerly, and asked with some anxiety: "Mr. Jiang, did I pass the test?"
"Well, you passed the test!"
Jiang Yunqing nodded, then took out a token from his arms and threw it towards Zhao Lian: "With this, report to the military camp, someone will make arrangements for you!"
Zhao Lian took the token and was immediately overjoyed. He saluted Jiang Yunqing respectfully and said, "Thank you sir!"
At this moment, he understood that if this second thing was a test, then the third thing should be the opportunity that Mr. Jiang was going to give him!
Jiang Yunqing waved his hand: "Back off!"
"yes!"
Zhao Lian responded, respectfully stepped back, and walked through the main door.
After Zhao Lian left, the empress walked out from the side and came to Jiang Yunqing's side. She said with emotion: "Your methods are too terrible. Even death cannot shake the memory you created for him. If you work harder, this world will be very difficult." It will be peaceful soon!”
"It's probably not very happy!"
Jiang Yunqing pointed to his heart, where a small cauldron was spinning happily...
