the enlightener says

In terms of cultivation, she is really not strong enough to jump off a building at will. Naturally, her jump did not fall straight from a high altitude, but just landed on the roof full of tiles, accompanied by the sound of clattering, flying around The tiles slowed down her falling speed, and at the very edge of the eaves, she slammed her hands suddenly, her whole body swayed like catkins, and the figure behind the courtyard wall disappeared.

On the other side of Abu, under his mighty tiger-like offensive, the two sergeants kept retreating, no matter how tacitly cooperated, it would be difficult to confront him head-on when he was in full swing.

And more importantly, the woman who used the longbow just now was rushing towards them. If she was allowed to join the battle group, would they still be able to win?

Needless to say, they already had the answer in their hearts.

Naturally, no matter how unconvinced they were, they could only look at each other, backed away tacitly, and took the corpse that belonged to them while running, and headed out of the alley.

Abu didn't stop them, just panting slightly, holding a halberd in his hand, watching them leave.These sergeants can be said to be conscientious, and even Abu has some respect in his heart.

The struggle between them is nothing more than their own masters. They want to protect the people of Qunfang Kingdom, while they are ordered to clean up the embassy of Qunfang Kingdom. It is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong. Taking the corpse back is also a little bit of my own kindness.

But at this moment, the fish arrived.

"Why didn't you kill them?" Yu'er looked at the sergeants dragging the corpses and asked in a cold voice.

Abu shook his head, and said, "Since they are going to retreat, I don't need to fight them to the death... Besides..." He let out a long breath, "If I want to catch up and kill the two of them now, it's okay It's not easy."

Yu'er nodded slightly, and he accepted Abu's statement, but what he didn't tell Abu was that these sergeants couldn't possibly be alive after leaving the alley.

Although Qunfang Country is small and sparsely populated, it doesn't mean that there are not many practitioners who can take advantage of it. Qiao Liyue has never let down his vigilance against Tang Country, leaving a lot of hidden stakes in Ding'an City. will be fully activated.

Now, there are at least a dozen people ambushing outside this alley. Their bounden duty is to kill people, so naturally they will not show mercy to the enemy like Abu.

"Where's Chan'er?" Yu'er looked at Abu and asked seriously.

Abu's complexion changed, and he remembered the shivering fish in the stable, and hurriedly dragged his halberd towards the courtyard.

Pushing open the wooden door with one hand, Abu was startled. The skinny horse lying in the stable didn't know how fierce the battle was going on outside, and it was still rejecting the hay in every possible way, creaking and creaking.

But Chan'er was lying in the stable, still wearing her coat, but her complexion was terribly pale, as if she was seriously ill.

Even if it's cold, shouldn't it look like this?

Chapter 287 The Master of the Dagger

Abu threw down the long halberd in a hurry, and ran towards Chan'er, but Yu'er was faster than him, taking three steps at a time, and knelt down in the stable, with his hands behind his neck, supporting him. Pick up the weak Chan'er.

"Fish?" Chan'er murmured in surprise when she saw the rain-drenched face in front of her clearly.

Yu'er shook his head, and said angrily, "I'm afraid you'll mess around!"

As she spoke, she groped around in Chan'er's arms, found a porcelain bottle, poured out a light yellow pill the size of a thumb from inside, and stuffed it into Chan'er's mouth.

"Crush it, I'll catch some rainwater for you." Yu'er said.

Chan'er frowned, and said in a low voice: "It's hard."

But after all, she still chewed the pill in her mouth very honestly.

Yu'er glanced at Abu, and Abu understood, but he couldn't find any utensils to hold water for a while, so he could only hold some with both hands, and handed it to Chan'er.

Chan'er swallowed a few mouthfuls, and finally swallowed the medicine down her throat. She felt a warmth rising from her abdomen, and her weak and weak body finally regained some strength.

"What's wrong with you?" Abu frowned and looked at her. He always had medicine on his body. Could it be some old disease?

"What else can it do?" Yu'er glared at Abu angrily, "It's not because of you big stupid ass."

Chan'er couldn't help smiling, and said, "Yu'er, it's not his fault, it's what I want to do."

As she said that, she closed her eyes. A ray of light flashed through the wind and rain, and a dagger quietly floated over and fell into her hand.

Abu's eyes widened: "You..."

What is this called?It turned out that the spiritual trainer who was helping him with the dagger just now was not someone else, but Chan'er who was weak and weak in the stable?

Chan'er was a little embarrassed and said: "I said I could help you, didn't I?"

"Yes...but this is too unexpected." Abu smiled bitterly, thinking that he really did not expect such a situation, but in this way, the spiritual practitioner who helped the caravan when it was attacked Or someone else?

"Are you injured?" These things can be left to think about later, but now he is more worried about Chan'er's body.

Chan'er shook her head and said: "No, it's an old problem. A few years ago, I had some troubles when I was practicing spirituality, so I had some physical problems, but it has gradually recovered in the past few years, but it is not suitable for people use force."

"You still have the nerve to say it." Yu'er snorted, "The imperial doctor said that you have to rest for a while, and you were drenched in the rain this night, and you fought with others forcibly. What's the problem? But don't care about you."

There was a smile on the corner of Chan'er's mouth, she knew that Yu'er was just talking angrily, the two grew up together, and the sisterhood was deep, how could she let herself go?

"It's okay, the imperial doctor also said that I have recovered almost in the past few years, and I can continue to practice soon." Chan'er comforted: "You know, the imperial doctor, they all like to take things seriously Said, they are just afraid that sister Qiao will blame me, I just take a rest after taking the medicine."

Yu'er nodded slightly, but still said viciously: "Then you can honestly give me a rest, and don't use your brains!"

"Okay. I know." Chan'er smiled helplessly, but soon became worried again, "Sisters...how are you?"

Yu'er, however, nodded confidently, and said, "It's already safe. Fortunately, the Lord has arranged the place in advance. Now they are all fine."

"Then... what about Miss Lin?"

Yu'er paused slightly, but still did not hide anything, and said in a low voice, "No news yet."

Yu'er didn't care about the change in Chan'er's face, she just pushed Abu to ask him to help, and borrowed Abu's strength to carry Chan'er behind her back.

"The situation in Ding'an City is very chaotic now. The [-] troops of the camp have rebelled, and the defense of the entire Ding'an City has fallen into the hands of the rebels. Although there is no new news from the palace, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. , go meet up with the sisters first.” Yu’er did not forget to look at Abu and asked, “Are you going with us?”

Abu was taken aback for a moment, and stared at Chan'er again, fascinated, but after hearing the situation Yu'er just said, he was also a little silent for a moment, and the ten thousand troops also rebelled?So what is Ah Ke's situation in the palace?

It seemed that he had played several rounds of games in his heart. He shook his head and said, "I still have some things to do. I have to go back."

"You want to go?" Chan'er frowned, eyes full of worry.

Yu'er didn't object to Abu's leaving, but thinking of the two letters from Zhang Fu and Qiao Feifan, and Abu's performance in protecting Chan'er tonight, she already regarded Abu as her own, so naturally Will be a little more concerned.

She looked Abu up and down, and said, "You'd better come with us to take a rest and change your clothes. You're going to be arrested on the street in your current state."

Abu looked at the torn clothes on his body and the wounds that were still oozing blood, and knew that Yu'er was telling the truth, and Chan'er also interjected at this time: "Let's go and deal with the injuries together, you Look, I'm not worried."

Abu's heart suddenly warmed up, and he became even more joyful, so he nodded in agreement.

Two warriors in night clothes walked in at the door, one was holding an umbrella of the same color as the clothes, and the other was holding a fox fur with both hands. After the fish took it, he shook it, flipped it over and put it on Chan'er's body. It even covered her entire face.

The fur of the fox fur is enough to block most of the rain, and the inside is sewn with double-layer quilting, so that even the howling cold wind in winter cannot penetrate it.

Under the fox fur, Chan'er said in a low voice, "I can't see anything if you cover me like this."

Yu'er snorted, "It's better if I can't see you, lest you mess around again." But soon, her voice became gentle, "You are tired, sleep on my back for a while, and you will be there in a while."

Chan'er couldn't help grinning, wrapped her hands around Yu'er's neck, rubbed Yu'er's warm skin gently with her cold cheeks, and brought up some goosebumps on Yu'er. They grew up together, and the relationship between their daughter's family was indispensable. She was playing around a lot, but today she was really tired, so she just rubbed and closed her eyes.

Several people went out of the alley like this. Dozens of warriors from the Qunfang Kingdom had already been divided into several teams, hiding in various places, cleaning up the sergeants of the patrol battalion blocking the only way to pass.

Although the number of the patrol battalion is still several times larger than that of the warriors in Qunfang Kingdom, the number of masters cannot be too many. In the just one battle, the patrol battalion has already killed less than half of their top experts. In front of the samurai, he looked a little weak.

Of course, it is impossible for the warriors of Qunfang Kingdom to be completely unscathed. Just on the road, Abu saw no less than ten corpses of warriors from Qunfang Kingdom in night clothes. He really wanted to block the heavy rain, but on the other hand, he obviously didn't want her to see these horrific scenes.

Tonight must be a bloody night, the rain can wash away the bloodstains on the streets and corners, but it is impossible to bury the corpses and severed limbs on the ground.

Even compared to the entire Ding'an City, this is just a small killing. The heavy rain has already fallen, but the torrents in this city are still brewing.

"6000 people..." Abu mused as he followed Yu'er on a quick walk. With such a sudden change, did Gao Yishui and Jing Yu think of any countermeasures?

Chapter 288 A Ke Returns

rice shop.

The rainwater overflowed the steps, and the drainage channel in this small street has been in disrepair for a long time. Under such heavy rain, it is no longer able to drain the rainwater into the river outside the city, and instead begins to "gurgling" upwards. .

And as the wooden door was knocked lightly, the clerk in the rice shop walked into the yard holding an umbrella, and shouted to the outside: "Here it is... who is it?"

No one responded outside, as if the knock on the door just now never existed at all.

After a while, the wooden door was knocked again, and the man became vigilant, stood in front of the door, and asked again, "Who?"

Then there was a sigh from outside the door, and an indifferent voice said: "That's why I have always hated dealing with mice."

The buddy's pupils shrank sharply, and he reached out to pull out his dagger from his waist, but a dagger came in through the crack of the door much faster than he imagined, and there was only a "clang" sound, including The iron bolt was disconnected from it in an instant.

The wooden door opened, and there was a person standing outside the door, his face could not be seen clearly in the night, the big black umbrella covered the rain and also covered the sky.

The shadow seemed to be entangled with him and refused to leave, only the dagger in his hand was left shining in the thunder.

The guy let out a strange cry, turned his head and ran away, but it was not because of fear or greed for life and fear of death, but because he already knew that he was definitely no match for the person in front of him, and he wanted to pass the news to the cellar, so that Jing Yu and the others were prepared .

The dagger sliced ​​through the air and hit his shoulder amidst the buzzing sound. The pain caused him to fall to the ground, splashing mud all over his body, and the man standing at the door let down the man under his armpit, and put A big black umbrella covered his body.

"Tell the people inside that the person they were waiting for has returned." Then, he turned around, walked into the rain, and disappeared in an instant.

"Who sent it?" When Jing Yu and others walked out the door and saw clearly that the person lying under the big black umbrella was actually Qin Ke, they were overjoyed and shocked at the same time, obviously everyone thought this kid was still in the palace, Why did he come back so silently?And... it was sent back by someone else...

"I don't know." The guy covered the injured part, the dagger was still stuck in his shoulder bone, "He didn't say who he is."

Gao Yishui and Jing Yu glanced at each other, and there was a bit of shock in their eyes.

Since Qin Ke was able to be sent here, it is obvious that the person knows everything about this place, but since he did not reveal his identity, he is obviously not one of his own, so the people who are hiding in the rice shop have already been exposed. ?

Jing Yu thought with a wry smile, it's ridiculous that he thought this rice shop was extremely safe, but now it seems that he is still too narrow-minded, there are so many heroes in the world, how can so many take it for granted?

"You go down." Jing Yu looked at his injured position, and said: "Take care of the wound, don't get the seven-day wind."

"Yes." The clerk bowed his hands respectfully, and then walked towards the rice shop covering his wound.

Gao Yishui picked up Qin Ke from the ground, and seeing him sound asleep, he couldn't help but sneered, "It's not easy to worry about for one night, but it really turned your bad luck into good luck. It's really unexpected."

"I'll take him upstairs." Gao Yishui said to Jing Yu.

Looking at Gao Yishui's back, Jing Yu sighed and said, "This rice shop can no longer be kept..."

The guy on the side shook his shoulders, bowed his head and said, "Yes."

Jing Yu analyzed in his heart: Maybe there is no need to rush?Since that person will send Qin Ke back, at least it proves that they don't want to be our enemy, and they will even have contact with us at some point in the future.

But then he denied his own idea, frowned and sighed: "No, I'm still too young, I shouldn't be so lucky. Those who take chances are gamblers. Since he Being able to find this rice shop obviously has a clear understanding of our espionage background. Let alone this rice shop, as long as the person has a thought, he can uproot us, but it seems that the person has no such idea now. For the current plan, we should close the rice shop first to prevent other people from following him to find here."

Jing Yu ordered the staff around him: "Go, hurry up and prepare, the rice shop will be transferred to the shopkeeper Wang of Fuhuan Restaurant, and we talked about it before..."

"Understood!" The clerk nodded cleverly, ignoring the heavy rain, and ran out the door holding an umbrella.

Jing Yu told another clerk beside him: "After closing the rice shop, we must reorganize the system of the entire Ding'an City, and make it as streamlined as possible to reduce the chance of information leakage." He looked at the heavy rain, his voice was a little cold , "Although that person has no hostility towards us for the time being, we in this business have never had the rule of entrusting our own life and death to others."

"Yes." The man said.

When Qin Ke woke up, the rain hadn't stopped.

There are no windows open in the familiar room, but some rainwater can be seen slowly sliding down from the gap.

So he began to suspect that he was dreaming, after all, before this, he had had one messy dream after another.

Some dreams are that he went back to his childhood, and a big pancake with a golden body and a burden fell from the sky, and when he arrived in front of his parents, he handed the pancake over with almost majestic momentum.

Sometimes I saw the big fish I had dreamed about again, but it suddenly broke through the water, grew wings, and got feathers out of the flesh and blood, turning into a huge fish that couldn't be seen. big bird...

How can a fish turn into a bird?

His mind was a little confused, but he still sorted out the memory that he should still be in the palace, and then saw that it was obviously the room in Mipu, and muttered with some headache: "I guess I still haven't woken up, I'll sleep a little longer. "

Qin Ke didn't know why he was able to sleep in such a dangerous place as the palace, but he still closed his eyes.

But soon, a hand scratched his cheek, Qin Ke was a little annoyed, he waved his hand to block it, and without opening his eyes, he just hummed softly: "Don't make noise, I don't want to dream anymore, I want to wake up and leave This bloody place."

Gao Yishui couldn't help laughing, and slapped his ass hard.

"Ah..." Although the cultivator's body is strong, it doesn't mean he won't feel pain. Gao Yishui used a lot of strength to slap him, and immediately jumped him off the bed.

"Are you really sleepy?" Gao Yishui smiled and said, "At least I lay down for half an hour. If I lie down again, I will go to the north of the city to order a coffin for you."

Qin Ke stared wide-eyed at the real Gao Yishui in front of him, then touched his sore buttock—hey, it seems that you don't feel pain in your dreams, right?

"Old Gao..." Qin Ke murmured, "I... this is..."

"Don't look, I'm right, you are really in Mipu now!" Gao Yishui said angrily, "It didn't stop all night, do you still remember how you came back?"

"I..." Gao Yishui's question caught him, he had too many dreams, his mind was a little confused, and he was so confused for a while that he couldn't remember many things.

Pulling the quilt, Qin Ke sat down and seemed to be talking to himself. After a while, he slowly sorted out some confusing parts: "When...when...the palace... Oh yes, Taishi Bureau..."

"That's right, Taishi Bureau!" The tall figure of the old man came into his mind again, his pupils narrowed sharply, he finally remembered, and the sharp pain that made him faint seemed to return to him at this moment .

Panting heavily, he even suspected that the old man's fingers were still embedded in his chest, and hurriedly tore off the clothes on his body.

The clothes have been changed into new linen clothes, which Gao Yishui helped him put on when he fell asleep.

But under the clothes... was smooth skin.

Not even a single wound...
