Inn.

Du Zongwu listened to the words conveyed by the person sent by Gu Qianzhi, his brows continued to stir, his face was calm, in fact, he was already anxious in his heart, the assassination incident happened at the post station, and the first person to take responsibility was him, the general of the Dragon Guard who played the outpost, who let him not find the assassins hidden in the basement, so that the assassination incident caused the tragic death of the two princesses on the spot?

After this incident came out, Du Zongwu was cold in his heart, he was already hopeless about his future, even if he was beheaded by Zhao Ziliang in anger, he would not feel strange, someone must take responsibility for this matter, he was more worried that because this matter affected his father, brother, wife and children, who can guess the king's thoughts? Maybe there is no result in this matter, and Zhao Ziliang will kill his entire clan with an edict. He only hopes that through his own efforts, he can try to catch a few live mouths, dig out some useful clues from the mouths of the assassins, and provide some help to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, so as to reduce his own crime and responsibility, and prevent this matter from implicating his father, brother and family.

Du Zongwu beckoned to the side, and a captain stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "General? ”

"Find a few sharpshooters to deal with the leading fake post man and a few fake post guards around him, I want you to guarantee that they don't have a chance to kill themselves and resist before and after I give the order, can you do it?"

The little colonel hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, the general, his subordinates will personally deal with that fake post man, and the few fake post soldiers around him will be responsible for a few of his most skilled archery brothers, and it is guaranteed that there will be no problems!" ”

Du Zongwu nodded and sighed: "There is such a big thing, I already know that even if I don't die, my future will be ruined, I just hope that I can not implicate my father, brother and family, this time it's all up to you!" ”

"Understood!"

Du Zongwu patted his subordinates on the shoulder and motioned for them to prepare, while he walked to the front and began to delay the deployment of his subordinates.

"General Ben, no matter who you are, do you think you can rest easy by taking these caravans hostage? Isn't it too whimsical? Do you think General Ben really cares about the lives of these people? It's best to drop your weapons and come over and surrender, maybe you can be spared death, after all, you are not the ones who directly assassinated, you only cooperated, and the crime is not too serious, but if you are stubborn and blindly resist to the end, there is only a dead end waiting for you! ”

"Hahaha······" The fake Yicheng laughed and said coldly at random: "This general, are you all three-year-olds when we are?" Since you have taken this step, you have long put life and death out of the way! Tell your people to all stand back, otherwise Lao Tzu will immediately order that all these caravans be killed! ”

Du Zongwu suddenly sneered: "It's really ridiculous, you want to threaten the general with just a few business travelers?" You're rusty, and the soldiers are ······ to orders."

"General!" The fake post man immediately interrupted Du Zongwu and said with a cruel smile: "You may not care about the life and death of other people, but you can't care less about the life and death of one of these merchants!" Someone, bring King Chen! ”

A young man in his twenties walked to the front of several fake post stations, this young man wore a golden crown on his head, his face was like a crown of jade, red lips and white teeth, and his bearing was extraordinary, and he was dressed in robes that only princes and nobles were qualified to wear.

When the young prince saw Du Zongwu, he immediately shouted: "This general, don't do it, don't do it, this king's life is pinched in their hands, if you do it, this king will definitely die, this king is the king of Chen, the brother of the current Tang Emperor, if you command this king to die indiscriminately, you and your family will inevitably be destroyed by the court, don't let the people retreat, retreat quickly!" ”

"King Chen? The brother of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Du Zongwu was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "This prince, I think you are mistaken, this fake post man, I think you are also wrong about one thing, this general is the general of Western Qin, not the general of the Tang Dynasty!" Is it my business to live or die for an idle prince of the Tang Dynasty? Soldiers, don't you do it yet? ”

"Whoosh ······" The sound of arrows rang out.

The fake post man and the post guards did not expect that the other party would completely disregard the net worth of a prince, and it was too late for them to dodge, and the body parts that were not covered by the hostages were hit by arrows, the hands and legs of the fake post man and several post guards around him were shot, the weapon fell to the ground, and several people involuntarily knelt on the ground, and the other post guards were surrounded by the dragon guards who rushed over before they could react, and after a tragic fight, the fake post man and several main post guards around him were captured alive, and the other post guards were all killed, Several people in the merchant brigade suffered an unjustified disaster and died on the spot, and the others survived, and Li Yu, the king of Chen, was frightened by the fight just now and collapsed on the ground, but fortunately he was paralyzed on the ground so that he was not affected by the battle.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang, are you okay? Scared the old slave to death, if something happens to the prince, how can the old slave explain to His Majesty and the concubine! An old eunuch ran over and cried while helping Li Yu up.

Li Yu looked at the corpses, blood and broken limbs everywhere on the ground, and was afraid for a while, but after he saw Du Zongwu, he immediately broke free from the old eunuch's hand and rushed over and grabbed Du Zongwu and shouted: "What's your name?" You lowly martial artist dare to ignore the life and death of this king and let people release arrows indiscriminately, you wait for me, if I don't kill you, I will not be worthy of this king of Chen! ”

Du Zongwu was already in an irritable mood, and was so troubled by Li Yu, the prince of the gentleman, that he was immediately furious, and lifted him away, "Get out, this general doesn't have time to pay attention to you, the waste prince, and then lean on me, believe it or not, Lao Tzu wiped you!" ”

Although Li Yu is the prince, he is just a gentleman after all, he was so frightened by Du Zongwu, and he seemed to be a little afraid that Du Zongwu would really do something to him, but he was not entangled, but he was still unconvinced: "Okay, okay, you wait for me, this king will definitely go to the king of Western Qin to sue you!" ”

"Okay, you go sue! I'm not afraid to tell you, the Holy King's line is at the post station next door, you go to sue, Lao Tzu Du Zongwu is waiting for you! Du Zongwu said viciously, turned around and left.

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Eunuch Han beside him, "Father-in-law Han, what did he just say?" ”

"Lord Wang, he seems to say that the Holy King's line is next door!"

"Holy King?"

"Yes, Holy King! That's what he said! ”

Li Yu suddenly burst out laughing, laughing and jumping, "Hahaha······ Okay, I've been wondering before, which big man is in the post next door, it turns out to be the Holy King. Gonggong Han, go, follow me to ask for the Holy King, this king must sue that Du Zongwu! ”

"Yes!"

The two walked outside the inn with a few entourages, but were soon stopped by the Dragon Guard soldiers guarding outside, but they heard that they were the princes of the Tang Dynasty and asked to see the Holy King, and the soldiers did not dare not report, so they could only let them stay temporarily, and sent someone to the post station to report.

The merchants who survived the inn were dumbfounded, they didn't expect to meet the holy king's holy car here, this news was too sudden, listening to the movement from the post station before, it seemed that the holy king had been assassinated, this was not obtained, and the merchants began to worry about whether they would be killed because they learned the news.

In the post station, Zhao Ziliang listened to Du Zongwu's report, looked at the fake post man and several fake post guards who were tied up by five flowers, and asked gloomily: "Say, why do you want to assassinate Lone?" ”

The fake post men and the post men twisted their heads to the side, ignoring Zhao Ziliang at all and not saying a word.

Zhao Ziliang raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and didn't know who he was talking to: "Go and find Master Chiba!" ”

I didn't see anyone answering, and the accompanying ministers and generals in the hall of the post station all looked at each other, not knowing who the Chiba master was, and the eunuchs and palace maids were also confused.

But soon, a figure suddenly appeared outside the lobby, and a young man in a robe walked in, although this young man was wearing a robe, he was not a monk at all, he had no bald head and no scars.

The surrounding Dragon Guard guards were shocked when they saw this suddenly appeared robed man, and they all aimed their weapons at him, Zhao Ziliang waved his hand, and the Dragon Guard soldiers slowly put away their weapons and retreated to the side.

The robe-man stepped into the middle of the hall, folded his hands and bowed to Zhao Ziliang and said, "The king is above, and the poor monk is polite!" ”

Zhao Ziliang did not blame Chiba for not intervening to prevent the assassinations of those assassins and causing the tragic death of the two princesses, because he had a clear contract with these secret protectors of the strange powers, and they were only responsible for dealing with those enemies who wanted to use non-worldly forces to disadvantage Zhao Ziliang and the direct members of the royal family, and did not care about ordinary assassinations and power struggles.

Zhao Ziliang said: "Master, I heard that you have a magical ability that can spy on someone's secret hidden in the depths of their minds, and I want to know who is the mastermind of this assassination, and this fake post is the only assassin who may know this secret here, can the master make a move?" ”

Chiba seemed to be a little resistant, and said hesitantly: "Wang, this technique is not the right way, and the person who is used the spell will definitely end up in a mess, like a walking corpse!" Not attacking ordinary people has always been a precept that people in our generation of cultivators have followed, and this law should not be broken! ”

Everyone in the lobby couldn't help but feel like they had fallen into an ice cellar when they heard this, and a chill rushed from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, and the fake post man was even more frightened, he saw Chiba's unbelievable way of appearing, and he had no doubt that this person who looked like a monk definitely had this ability.

Zhao Ziliang suddenly became manic, staring at Chiba as if he was about to erupt into fire, and roared: "But Lone's two concubines were assassinated, who will be responsible for this matter?" If you can't catch the mastermind behind the scenes, Lone will definitely not give up! One person becomes an idiot and tens of millions of heads fall to the ground, you choose! ”

The ministers and generals seemed that Zhao Ziliang was just angry, but only Chiba himself knew that he was like a small boat in the sea at the moment, almost falling apart by the storm and the raging waves, and a Dao heart was almost destroyed by Zhao Ziliang's spiritual impact!

Fortunately, Zhao Ziliang didn't really want to make a move on him, things have come to this point, and Chiba also knows that he can only compromise, give up the principles he has always adhered to, make an exception, he put his hands together after stabilizing his mind and Dao heart, bowed and saluted: "Chiba obeys!" ”

When the fake post saw Chiba turn around and look at him, he immediately showed a frightened look, and a terrible scream came out of his mouth: "No······"
