Chapter 301: Portraiture

Zhu Ruihuan was about a zhang away from Zhang Xuansu's sedan chair at this moment, and the sword had already reached the sedan chair, he didn't have time to stop it, in a hurry, he pulled out the Tang knife and threw it at the other party, the Tang knife was like a sharp arrow, shooting towards the other party.

"Dang!" There was a sound on the ground, sparks shot everywhere, and the other party, in order to protect himself, swung his sword to hit the Tang knife, and then he had to swing his sword to stab the sedan chair.

And at this moment, a person suddenly flew on the roof, and slashed at the assassin with a knife, the move was simple and atmospheric, and the momentum was like Kaiyue, and the person who came was Lu Yun, but he was masked in a black scarf at the moment, only showing two eyes, it turned out that Lu Yun was afraid that Zhu Ruihuan was inexperienced, so after sleeping for a while, he came to follow Zhang Xuansu quietly, but he didn't expect him to catch up, if he didn't make a move, Zhang Xuansu in the sedan car would have no reason.

"Master!" Zhu Ruihuan shouted excitedly when he saw this, although Lu Yun had a black scarf on his face, he was too familiar with Lu Yun's martial arts path, and he recognized it at a glance.

"Dang!" There was another loud bang, swords clashing, sparks bursting out, and they were particularly conspicuous in the night, and Lu Yun and the assassin each took two steps back.

Lu Yun was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect this assassin's martial arts to be so high, he suddenly made a move, the strength and speed were perfect, the other party was able to catch it, and he also shook him back two steps, how could he not be surprised.

"Good kung fu!" The Ghostface Assassin gave a thumbs up.

The four sedan chair men finally reacted, and they were so frightened that they screamed and scattered, and the sedan chair was thrown to the ground, shaking Zhang Xuansu inside, Zhang Xuansu didn't know that he had walked around from the ghost gate, and walked out of the sedan chair angrily, and then saw the pedestrians around him scattered, two people with soldiers looking at each other, one in black and masked, and one in green clothes.

"What a demon! How dare you do it at the feet of the Son of Heaven! Although Zhang Xuansu is a weak person, he has a strong and righteous spirit, and when he encountered such a scene, not only was he not afraid, but he glared and scolded.

Not far away, Zhu Ruihuan looked at the sweat and thought: "Old man, you almost died just now, you know no, you are still a fart!" ”

Lu Yun and the ghost-faced assassin stared at each other, motionless, and Zhang Xuansu shouted: "Where is the city guard!" There are thieves here! ”

Just when Zhang Xuansu shouted, Lu Yun and the ghost-faced assassin rushed towards each other at the same time, time was pressing, the city guards were approaching in a moment, they had to deal with each other as soon as possible, otherwise it would be difficult to get out, whether it was Lu Yun or this assassin, they couldn't reveal their identities.

It is understandable that the identity of the assassin cannot be revealed, but why can't Lu Yun's identity be revealed? Because many people know that Lu Yun is Li Hao's person, once Lu Yun's identity is exposed, then it means that Li Hao participated in the prince's murder incident, although it is to save Zhang Xuansu, it is useless, participation is participation, Li Shimin has enough reason to doubt that this incident was planned by Li Hao, so Lu Yun can't show his face in this operation.

"Ping Pong ......" swords collided, the sound was as rapid as an alarm clock, although this metaphor was a bit funny, but their speed of swords and swords was too fast, in just ten seconds, the two of them actually made more than 20 swords and more than 20 swords, and they both used their own killing moves, because if they didn't solve each other quickly, the city guards would arrive.

"Poof, poof" twice, blood flew out, Lu Yun slashed the assassin's sword-holding right arm, cutting a wound more than three inches long, and at the same time, the assassin also stabbed Lu Yun's thigh with a sword, more than three inches deep into the flesh.

Lu Yun endured the pain, and took advantage of the injury of the opponent's right hand to fly the long sword, the assassin was injured in his right hand, the long sword couldn't hold it, and it was bounced out, just as the long sword flew towards Zhu Ruihuan, and Zhu Ruihuan reached out to catch it.

The assassin lost his long sword, and when he saw Lu Yun swinging his sword, he immediately retreated quickly, fortunately he retreated quickly, Lu Yun slashed down with a knife against his face, and the sharp wind brought out by the tip of the knife directly cut the mask in half, revealing his face, it was really the innkeeper of the Jianghu Inn-Chen Song.

Chen Song took a few steps back and jumped on the roof, Lu Yun wanted to chase but found that his right leg was in unbearable pain, and at this time, there were hurried footsteps and shouts not far away, the city guards were already approaching here, Lu Yun gritted his teeth and said, "You go after him!" I'll go back first! After speaking, he swooped down, stepped a wall, flew up more than a foot high, crossed a wall, and disappeared.

Zhu Ruihuan had already chased after the assassin according to Lu Yun's instructions, leaving the dumbfounded Zhang Xuansu standing there, and soon, a large group of soldiers defending the city rushed over, and when they saw the stunned Zhang Xuansu, a general who looked like a captain stepped forward and asked, "Lord Zhang?" What happened? ”

Zhang Xuansu was also a little confused, he didn't know how to answer, after he got out of the sedan chair, he only saw two people fighting there, and there was a person wearing a big hat in the back, fortunately he could see Chen Song's face clearly.

At this time, the sedan chair drivers who had originally fled all returned, and a short and sturdy sedan chair man said with horror on his face: "Soldiers, it's terrible, someone wants to assassinate Master Zhang!" ”

"What?" Zhang Xuansu and the lieutenant were taken aback when they heard this.

Zhang Xuansu asked in disbelief: "Are you sure that someone is going to kill the old man?" ”

"My lord, I saw it clearly!" The palanquin man shouted, "There is a man with a fanged grimace mask, and he stabbed at the palanquin with a sword, but fortunately a man in black with a knife jumped down from the sky and stopped the sword-bearer, and then the sword-bearer began to fight with the sword-bearer......

This sedan chair man's eloquence is a little poor, but they can barely understand, Zhang Xuansu's face is very bad at the moment, thinking that he just walked away from the ghost gate, a little afraid, he never expected that he had lived such a long time, he had never done anything bad in his life, and he would be assassinated when he was old, and he was assassinated in Chang'an City, he first began to be a little afraid, and then the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, there was a small trouble at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and he decided to go to Taiji Palace immediately to report Li Shimin.

Zhu Ruihuan chased the assassin all the way to the wall, the assassin's light skills were very good, after chasing for a long time, Zhu Ruihuan actually chased and lost, he was shocked, since he learned the arts, he went through regional training, he thought he was very good, but this time he was hit, and the other party was injured and he could still be thrown away, so it can be seen that the gap between the two sides is still obvious.

But when he thought about it, this person was almost tied with the master, and it didn't seem to be a big deal if he lost it, so Zhu Ruihuan went back with relief, Zhu Ruihuan was very similar to Li Hao in this regard, and he had a big heart.

When Zhu Ruihuan returned to Taibai Building, Li Hao, Lu Yun and Lin Dingkun were all in the room, and as soon as he entered the door, Li Hao asked, "Have you caught up with the assassin?" ”

Zhu Ruihuan shook his head: "I lost it, the other party's light skills are too powerful, and I can't catch up." ”

Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, Helan Chushi found the killer from, he was so awesome, not only did he have a draw with Lu Yun, but he couldn't even catch up with Zhu Ruihuan, you know, although Zhu Ruihuan's light skills have not yet been completed, but looking at the rivers and lakes, the light skills of many first-class masters are not comparable to him.

"Where did this killer come from?" Li Hao screamed in amazement, "Neither of you caught him?" ”

Lu Yun's leg wound had been bandaged, he stretched his legs and sat down, frowning: "The other party's origin is not simple, I look at his swordsmanship, it seems to be in the same vein as my master's swordsmanship." ”

"Oh?" Li Hao was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "He is also from the Guigu faction?" ”

"I don't know." Lu Yun sighed, "As far as I know, my master has only one senior brother, and that is your master, and my master only accepts three disciples, namely Senior Sister Yu, me, and Senior Sister Hu, as for how many disciples your master has, I don't know very well." ”

"Could it be my master's apprentice?" Li Hao was stunned for a while when he heard this, didn't that wash away the Dragon King Temple? But he thought about it and felt that it was wrong, if it was his senior brother, then Zhiyuan Zhenren should tell him, well, it seems that he has to arrest that assassin and ask him personally, anyway, if there is such a big movement, Li Shimin will definitely order martial law in the whole city, and that assassin will not be able to escape from Chang'an City.

Zhang Xuansu visited Taiji Palace late at night, and was stopped by the guards of Taiji Palace, Zhang Xuansu broke through and made a big noise, and then Qin Qiong, who was in charge of guarding Chang'an City, also came to see Li Shimin, and his purpose was naturally the same as Zhang Xuansu.

The guards of Taiji Palace saw that Qin Qiong was actually here, and knew that the matter was not small, so they immediately sent someone to report it, and after a long time, Li Shimin sent an order to let Qin Qiong and Zhang Xuansu meet in the Ganlu Palace.

After the two came to the Ganlu Palace, they told Zhang Xuansu about the assassination, Li Shimin was furious when he heard this, and immediately ordered Qin Qiong to lead the right military guard to martial law the whole city, and at the same time sent a painter, asking the painter to draw a portrait of the assassin according to Zhang Xuansu's description, and the whole city was wanted.

Early the next morning, all the gates and billboards of Chang'an City were posted with wanted notices, and they were also equipped with a portrait of Chen Song, Li Hao was very satisfied with Li Shimin's reaction speed, and took Lin Dingkun to see the wanted notice, after seeing the wanted notice, his face twitched, this is also called portrait painting, it is too abstract, it is estimated that it would be good to be three points similar to me.

Li Hao returned to Taibai Building, took out the drawing paper and pencil, and asked Lu Yun to describe Chen Song's appearance, he began to sketch, and after the sketch was completed, he showed it to Lu Yun, Lu Yun was amazed, I didn't expect Li Hao to have such a magical skill, this painting is so good, however, it is still not very similar, Lu Yun pointed out several differences in the face shape, nose and eyes, Li Hao changed it, perfect, at least eight points similar to Chen Song himself.

Li Hao picked up the sketch portrait and looked at it, then took out a lighter and lit it and burned it, Lu Yun exclaimed when he saw this: "The painting is so good, why did you burn it?" ”

"Because ......," Li Hao smiled, "I want to draw him in front of the emperor." ”

In the afternoon, Li Hao entered the Taiji Palace to ask to see Li Shimin, Li Shimin announced the meeting, and after Li Hao saluted, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, Weichen heard that Lord Zhang Xuansu, the left hand, was assassinated last night. ”

"You're pretty well-informed." Li Shimin was not in a good mood, raised his eyes to look at Li Hao, and asked, "Say, what's the matter with coming to me?" ”

"Wechen gives His Majesty a gift." Li Hao said and took out a piece of paper and raised it above his head.

Xu Lian took it over and forwarded it to Li Shimin, Li Shimin glanced at it, and was suddenly shocked, his eyes opened sharply, and he exclaimed: "This is what you painted?" ”

I saw that this piece of paper was actually a sketch of Li Shimin's whole body, and Li Shimin was holding a sword that had been unsheathed, looking intently at the sword in his hand, and there was a poem next to it: "The wise god Wutian Khan, draw the sword and look around at a loss." ”

That's right, it's a sycophant.

"I didn't expect that." Li Shimin said excitedly, "Poet, you are still good at painting Taoism, like, painting too similar!" ”

"Your Majesty." Li Hao arched his hand and said with a smile, "After Wei Chen also saw the portrait on the wanted notice, he suddenly itched, and temporarily painted a picture and gave it to His Majesty, and patted His Majesty's ass by the way." ”

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he said loudly: "Someone is coming, quickly pass the left hand Zhang Xuansu Ganlu Hall to meet you!" ”

When Li Hao heard this, he lowered his head and smiled proudly, this is one of the purposes of his visit this time, and the other purpose is to remind Zhang Xuansu who he has offended recently.
