Chapter 827: Captured
After standing for a moment, the monarch poured a glass of wine with a trembling hand, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "Okay, this gentleman miscalculated for a while, I didn't expect that there would be such an elite musketeer under the command of Young Master Hua, even if I lost!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand, "ding", and smashed the wine glass in his hand on the stone platform.
At this moment, something happened suddenly!
But seeing Shi Qingzhu waving his hands continuously, five steel needles flew out of his sleeves, shooting directly at Hua Bushi's face and chest, while Ge Li on the side jumped in front of Gu Xunhua who was lying on the side of the stone platform, and slashed straight down!
Under the big defeat and loss, the other party will turn his face and make a move, which is also expected, although Hua Bushi has no ability to resist, but Sima Rulan, who has been by his side, has already taken precautions. But seeing the white shadow flickering, in a few small crisp sounds, all five steel needles were knocked away by her "flower fingers".
With a "bang", there was a gold and iron exchange, Mars Sige, and Ge Li's machete was also framed, and it was Li Hu who took out his sword in time to save Gu Xunhua.
At this time, Shi Qingzhu had already hugged his father's waist and retreated towards the rock wall with him, and Ge Li did not love to fight, and flew backwards with the power of the blade exchange, and also jumped towards the rock wall.
Sima Rulan and Li Hu were willing to let their opponents get out so easily, and they both flew up and chased after them, but at this moment, they heard the sound of the golden blade breaking through the wind, and the two long swords stabbed in the air, it was the two scholars Wenqin and Xie Pei.
In mid-air, the figures flew over, the sound of weapons clashing was endless, Sima Rulan and Li Hu instantly exchanged three moves with the two scholars, but they couldn't rush past the jianzhen that the two servants had joined hands to arrange, and were intercepted.
And Shi Qingzhu had already retreated to the side of the rock wall with his father, his feet on the ground, but he went straight up to the cliff.
"It's not good, stop him!" The person who shouted was none other than Hua Bushi.
This bluestone platform is about thirty zhang high, in the middle of the hundred-zhang stone cliff, it is a Jedi, and there is at least sixty or seventy zhang away from the top of the cliff above, even if the person with excellent light skills wants to climb it with his bare hands, he can't do it, not to mention that Shi Qingzhu also carries a big living person weighing 100 catties.
However, just as Shi Qingzhu was rising, an object suddenly fell from the top of the cliff, but it was a rope the thickness of a thumb. She stretched out her hand to hold the end of the rope, and with a place to borrow strength, she pulled it and pulled it up.
It turned out that the "Heavenly Punishment" had already arranged a response at the top of the cliff, and this rope was put by the receiver.
The monarch smashed the wine glass, obviously agreeing on the haode code, and all the next actions were all in jihua. The leader of the "Heavenly Punishment" is indeed a cautious and cautious person, even if he thinks that today's battle will be won, but just in case, he still leaves a way out.
Sima Rulan's "Flower Fingers" connected the dots, and Li Hu also launched the "Green Python Sword Technique" attack, both of them showed their best martial arts, but the two long swords of the two scholars joined together, forming a sword wall, making it impossible for them to move forward.
The stone platform was already long and narrow, and it was intercepted by Jianzhen, two scholars, and it was difficult for anyone to rush through it in dozens of moves, and these times were enough for Shi Qingzhu to climb to the top of the cliff with his father.
With the help of the rope, Shi Qingzhu had climbed more than 20 zhang in a few breaths, and Ge Li also followed closely, grabbing the rope and leaping. Seeing that the three of them were about to escape, they only heard a sharp sound of breaking the air, and a cold light flew out, shining directly into the air Shi Qingzhu, but it was a steel dart more than three inches long.
The person who fired the dart was Meng Huan.
Fighting together, Meng Huan did not come forward to help, this is because the stone platform is narrow, Sima Rulan and Li Hu and the two scholars have already occupied all the space, and Meng Huan's martial arts are not as good as the two, and it is difficult to perform when there are too many people to huddle together. However, Meng Huan has a special secret weapon kung fu, called "Seven Star Death Dart".
This secret weapon kung fu is usually not used easily by Meng Huan, the dart is shot out with a machine spring hidden in his sleeve, the force is very strong, and when the sound of breaking the sky sounds, it has already shot into Shi Qingzhu's back.
Shi Qingzhu's ability to listen to the wind is not weak, he grasped the sling hanging from the top of the cliff with one hand, his left foot was a little on the rock wall, and his body swung a little wider, and he had flashed the direction where the dart came.
However, the "Seven-Star Death Dart" is Meng Huan's trick, how could it be avoided so easily? I only heard the sound of "Zheng", and the steel dart suddenly exploded five feet behind Shi Qingzhu, turning into seven cold rays, and attacking separately!
It turned out that there was also a hidden mechanism in the steel dart, and it could be divided into seven. These seven cold rays are all small darts that are inches long, and they are coming quickly, covering the space within three feet. If it was on flat ground, Shi Qingzhu might still be able to deal with it, but now she is holding the rope in one hand and her father in the other, and she is in mid-air, and it is impossible to dodge it again.
Rao is Shi Qingzhu reacted extremely quickly, shrunk and flashed two darts, his feet flew up and kicked two darts, but his right shoulder, upper arm and elbow had been shot by the remaining three darts at the same time. She was carrying her father in her right hand, but she couldn't hold it at this time, and with an exclamation, her father fell from mid-air!
Previously, Shi Qingzhu had climbed to the top of the cliff with his father for more than 20 zhang, and if he fell down from such a high place, even a master of light martial arts could not bear it, let alone a person who did not know martial arts.
However, just as the monarch was about to fall to the ground, a red figure rushed straight over, and with a muffled "bang", he caught his body stiffly!
This figure is the scholar in a red shirt who is called Wenqin. At this moment, the cold light flashed, and Li Hu's "Snake Wing Sword" had pierced the throat of another scholar, Xie Pei.
The two scholars formed a formation to intercept Sima Rulan and Li Hu, Wen Qin suddenly rushed to the edge of the cliff to save people, Jianzhen had a flaw in an instant, Li Hu was already fighting with all his strength, suffering from being unable to break through, at this moment almost instinctively took advantage of the gap and assassinated Xie Pei with a sword.
Wen Qin caught the monarch's father, and also sat down heavily on the ground, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and the steel sword also fell to the side.
The monarch's father fell straight down from a height of more than 20 zhang, and the falling momentum was more than a thousand catties, and in an emergency, Wen Qin didn't have time to use the unloading technique, so he could only rush forward and hug him directly, as if he was hit head-on by the palm force of more than a thousand catties. And he was afraid of hurting his father, and he didn't have any luck to fight against him, and after this blow, he was immediately seriously injured.
Seeing this, Shi Qingzhu, who was hanging on the rope above the rock wall, saw this scene, hesitated slightly, and still climbed to the top of the cliff, and Ge Li followed closely behind. Without the two scholars, Shi Qingzhu herself was injured, and with her and Ge Li alone, it was impossible to take away the monarch's father, rather than come down to die, it was better to get out and retreat by herself.
The two figures quickly climbed to the top of the cliff and disappeared from everyone's sight. Sima Rulan and Li Hu both jumped under the rock wall, and with a flash of cold light, the tip of Li Hu's sword had already touched the throat of the monarch's father.
At this time, the leader of the "Heavenly Punishment" had long lost his previous chic bearing, the folding fan fell somewhere, a white robe was covered with dust, and was scratched several times by the stones on the rock wall, and his hair was scattered, looking very embarrassed. His face was pale, looking at the slain scholar Xie Pei and Wen Qin lying beside him, clenching his teeth, looking shocked and angry.
With a flick of his wrist, Li Hu was about to stab him to death, but suddenly heard someone say: "Wait a minute, don't kill him!"
Li Hu didn't use his sword, turned his head to look, but saw that the person who stopped him was Yang Sichang.
Yang Sichang arched his hand towards Hua Bushi and said, "Young Master Hua, although this person is innocent of death, the mastermind of the assassination of the Taigong driver has not yet been identified, please spare his life for the time being, and escort him back to the capital for interrogation." ”
Jun's father is the leader of the "Heavenly Punishment", and he has many secrets, such as who his true identity is, how he can mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Jurchen clan, what kind of support and backstage he has in the Ming court, and what is the relationship with the Demon Dao, etc.
There are not a few important people who have been assassinated by "Heavenly Punishment" for many years, and only the monarch knows best who is the one behind the murderer.
These secrets are very important, and even related to many grudges, which will determine the life and death of many people, but Hua Bushi does not want to explore it, and would rather kill this person now, once and for all.
Jun's father is the big spider in the center of the spider's web, and getting rid of him can defeat the largest killer group in the rivers and lakes, Hua Bushi's goal will be achieved, he has no intention of making extraneous branches, and he doesn't want this person to live for a moment longer, so as not to have a long night and many dreams and make things happen in vain.
But Yang Sichang's thoughts are different. Now the biggest suspicion of assassinating the palace driver falls on King Fu, the prince Zhu Yousong has been placed under house arrest, and only by finding out the truth can he get away with it, and even if he can't catch the main messenger behind the scenes, he can also serve as an important witness when he escorts his father back to the capital.
Li Hu pursed his mouth and said, "Does Yang Guanren want him to be the mastermind of the assassination of the prince?" That's very easy, I can get him to say it soon, and then kill it with a sword!"
The monarch's face was full of resentment, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If you have the ability, you can kill this monarch with a sword, but you don't want to get a word from my mouth!"
Li Hu's eyes widened, and he shouted: "If you don't say it now, after you taste my newly learned 'scaling' knife technique, you must not be able to harden your mouth!"
As he spoke, he was about to make a move, but Yang Sichang hurriedly stopped: "Brother Li, don't hurt him! You have to escort him to the Beijing Division, and you have to confess through the interrogation of the Criminal Department, and you must leave him alive!"
Li Hu frowned and said, "You people in the official mansion are really troublesome! Boss, do you want to take his life?"
Hua Bushi walked quickly to the front, but he didn't speak, he reached out and grabbed the wrist of the scholar Wenqin, at this time Wenqin fell to the ground and couldn't move, and blood couldn't stop spilling from his mouth and nose.
Hua Bushi concentrated on checking the pulse, and after a while, he let go of Wen Qin's wrist, sighed and said, "His internal organs have all been shattered, and he can't be saved." ”
He turned his gaze to the face of the monarch next to him, and said, "Don't you feel sad that they died to save you?"
