Stealing Hook [Rebirth]

It's already autumn, and the scenery of Fengling City is getting more and more bleak, but the warriors here are all full of energy and red, because in the past few days, a large amount of food, grass and clothes have been transported from the Central Plains, which is enough for them to spend a cold winter here. .

The heavy carriage made two deep marks on the ground, and the two sides of the street were full of big and thick men. Pei Yuan stood sloppily in the crowd with a big knife in one hand, and poured wine into his mouth with the other hand. He took a sip of wine, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and said in a hoarse voice with a strong accent: "So many! I don't know how much each of us can share."

"It doesn't matter how much he gets, anyway, we can eat and drink enough, this life is much better than before!" A slightly older martial artist next to him said with a smile, "We didn't have such a good time in this world before, fighting with people every day You have to die, today you occupy the top of the mountain, tomorrow I will be the king, there is no stable life, fortunately we have taken refuge in His Royal Highness, after so many years, we only need to train soldiers, and these days, hehe... Old boy, I have a wife now, a son I have it too, isn't it just the days of gods... When the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, I might be able to be an official, old boy, that taste, tsk tsk..."

Pei Yuan looked envious, and couldn't help but raised his heels and followed the convoy forward, but the warrior next to him didn't care.

The sky of Fengling City was high and the emperor was far away. Not only did the food and grass come here without concealment, but they also circled the city with great fanfare. Yuan was inconspicuous in the crowd. As he walked, he glanced out of the corner of his eye at the other bodyguards on the other side of the street who were also submerged in the crowd, and quietly gestured with his hand holding the flagon.

The grain and grass entered the warehouse smoothly in the noisy atmosphere, and the crowd gradually dispersed. The people who escorted the grain and grass walked into a large mansion with a list. They wanted to meet Xie Ji, but they were stopped at the door. I heard that Xie Ji The old illness relapsed and it was inconvenient to see others, so he turned around and went to Luan Fengming's residence on the other side.

Luan Fengming was changing the dressing in the inner room, the doctor looked at the two big holes on his arm that had just scabbed and frowned, thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what kind of sharp weapon he was stabbed in, and didn't dare to ask more questions, He just put on the medicine honestly, re-wrapped him up, and left with the medicine box in his hand.

Luan Fengming put down his sleeves and let people from outside come in. Just as he took the list to read, a confidant from outside came in and whispered something in a low voice beside him.

Luan Fengming's hand holding the list suddenly tightened, a dim light flashed across his eyes, then he raised his head and smiled at the person who came: "It's been a hard journey, you go down and rest first, I'll look at the list later."

The man promised with a smile, and stepped back tactfully.

Luan Fengming stood up immediately: "Where is the person? Take me to see!" He was about to go out, but he paused when he raised his foot to step over the threshold, and said, "Go and invite my father, the dog emperor is really False, he will know it at a glance."

The confidant said that a person was found in a stronghold of Xie Rongzhen in the suburbs of Beijing. The person claimed to be the current emperor. They were placed in a small uninhabited courtyard at the back for temporary care.

Luan Fengming had long suspected that there was something wrong with the emperor in the palace, and believed most of it almost instantly, and rushed over in a hurry. Not long after, Xie Ji was also carried over in a sedan chair.

The two didn't enter the house, they just looked outside through the crack of the door. Xie Ji got excited when he saw the face of the man inside, his eyes burst out with hatred, and he wished he could rush in and smash the man to pieces ten thousand paragraphs.

Luan Fengming winked, ordered the bearer to carry him back, and followed him closely, and said with a low laugh, "Father, our chance has come!"

Xie Ji clenched his hands on his knees into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands were stretched. He gritted his teeth for a long while before suppressing the hatred. He turned his head and glanced at Luan Fengming without saying anything.

The two of them returned to the house and backed away before bringing up the matter again. Xie Ji coughed for a while and said, "It's still too urgent. Xie Rongzhen has already escaped from our hands. Once he finds out that the thief emperor is missing, he will definitely think of a way to deal with it." The method, we have a total of 10,000+ soldiers and horses, and the imperial court is far more than that, besides, Lianjiabao has already entered into an enmity with us, so it is uncertain whether it will be a hindrance."

Luan Fengming stood up and poured water for him: "Now is a golden opportunity, the thief emperor is in our hands, who dares to say that we are rebellious? No one has doubts about Xie Rongzhen's reversal of the case. We just need to say that there is a fake emperor in the palace." The fact that the whole world began to doubt him, no matter how capable he is, he will not be able to turn the sky."

Xie Ji closed his eyes and pondered for a long time.

Raising soldiers for thousands of days, their soldiers have been raising them for 20 years. Before that, they had been standing still because of the lack of troops. Without the certainty of victory, they could not act rashly. It was also because of the lack of opportunities and legitimate reasons. But now the emperor is in their hands. No one is more righteous than them.

Luan Fengming sat down again, and said: "As for Lianjiabao, don't we still have people like Liang Hong? Even though Lianzhen is in charge of Lianjiabao, the old castle owner is still a pillar supporting everyone. We can let Liang Hong attack the old castle owner first, then Lianjiabao will have a great funeral, and I am afraid that he will not have the energy to intervene."

Xie Ji suddenly opened his eyes: "Have you ever tried the exotic medicine you mentioned before?"

"I tried it, and the rumors are true. This medicine is better than poison, and it is suitable for controlling the thief emperor." Luan Fengming smiled softly, "When we enter Beijing in the future, the thief emperor will be at our mercy. We can let him call Lian Zhen went to the palace for interrogation, and let Lian Zhen go into danger alone, never to return. At that time, all the dragons in the Lianjiabao will have no leader, and they will be handed over to a young Lian Mufeng. It will not be easy to deal with it. When you strike, you will surely get a bronze hook."

Xie Ji was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly: "There really is no better time than now."

Although they didn't have enough troops, he was the crown prince after all. After the palace change, the court went through some cleaning, but it was impossible to wash it clean. They were not fighting alone. They had their eyes and ears in the court. There are also people in the middle who support him secretly, and with the emperor in their hands, they can raise the banner on the side of the Qing emperor and hold the emperor to order the princes, and they will surely succeed.

Thinking of this, Xie Ji cheered up, propped himself up and said, "Go and send a message to Liang Hong, let him find an opportunity to act as soon as possible, and then send a message to Yangping Pass, and ask General Li to send troops to help."

Luan Fengming stood up: "Yes."

Xie Ji and Luan Fengming are full of confidence, but they don't know that Liang Hong, who is far away in Lianjiabao, has gone wrong.

As soon as Liang Hong received the news from Fengling City, he heard the sound of footsteps outside. Before he could react, the door was slammed open, and a group of young bodyguards rushed in to arrest him, and took away the gun in his hand. Confidential letter, Liang Hong turned pale with fright, and the stern and inwardly angry voice stopped shortly after he uttered it. He raised his head and saw the old castle lord leading a group of old men who had fought side by side in the past. Backed away layer by layer, and finally fell to the ground.

After a night of wind and rain in Lianjiabao, after cleaning up a group of traitors headed by Liang Hong, the owner of Lianjiao called all his subordinates to discuss matters, and gathered nearly a hundred thousand soldiers.

At the same time, the false emperor Zheng Qian issued an edict according to Lian Mufeng's instructions, and found an excuse to transfer General Li away from Yangping Pass, and transferred General Li's deadly enemy, General Yang, to take over Yangping Pass.

*

In southern Xinjiang, various tribes began to imitate the Central Plains and try farming after dividing up the Baizhe tribe and occupying the original Jiuxi tribe. Now it is the harvest season, and all tribes are rejoicing for this, and hold autumn sacrifices one after another.

The sacrificial bonfire was blazing, and the clansmen were singing and dancing around the bonfire. When they were in high spirits, a shocking roar suddenly came from the depths of the dense forest. The clansmen were frightened, and when they heard the roar getting closer, they dared not speak any more. Waiting, screaming and fleeing in all directions.

The surroundings of the bonfire quickly became quiet, and the roaring stopped. The giant centipede poked its head out of the woods, as if a little afraid of the burning flames, its tentacles cautiously stretched out, and quickly retracted. Not long after, two long legs took out a The ice was placed next to the campfire, and inside the ice was Mo Yuan who had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.

The centipede pushed the ice cube forward, seemed dissatisfied, picked up the ice cube again, carefully lifted it above the flame, a gust of wind blew, the flame suddenly shook, the centipede was frightened, and the ice cube "bang" It fell onto the fire with a bang.

"Aww——" the centipede anxiously pulled the ice cube to its side, touched it with its tentacles, and made sure that Mo Yuan's breath was still there, so he was relieved. After a while, he continued to gather the ice cube to the side of the fire, like this After tossing for a long time, it was always dissatisfied, and it pulled down a few trees from the side and set them up beside the fire, and then carefully put the ice cubes on the shelves built by the trees.

The flames licked the ice, and Mo Yuan, who was sealed inside, didn't respond. The centipede stood by quietly and threw firewood into it as soon as it saw the fire. With signs of melting, the centipede became agitated again and began to circle the campfire.

The tree holding the ice cubes was baked by the fire for a long time, and gradually became dry and cracked, and suddenly broke with a "snap". When it broke, other trees also broke and rolled, but in the blink of an eye, the ice cubes lost their support, "Bang!" "The sound hit the fire again, and the bonfire, which was no longer vigorous, struggled a few times before it was completely extinguished.

The centipede quickly stretched out its long legs and moved Mo Yuan to his side, and then checked the ice again with its tentacles, drooping down in frustration.

Recently, there are bonfires everywhere in southern Xinjiang. It drives people away every time, and takes the frozen Mo Yuan to grab a place to enjoy the fire. Unfortunately, every time it fails, even if it lasts for three days and three nights, the ice will be destroyed. It didn't move at all, and there was no sign of melting.

The centipede let out a mournful cry, and with its tentacles drooping, took Mo Yuan into the depths of the dense forest and returned to his place of residence.

There is a deep pool here, and there is a trace of heat above the deep pool. The centipede is not afraid of water, but it doesn't like water, but it likes the moist soil and smell near the deep pool. It will come here to rest after eating and drinking. Mo Yuan put it down, feeling a little hungry, thinking of bringing back some delicious food yesterday and hiding it in a nearby tree hole, so he turned to get it.

Behind it, the icy ink was pressed against the grass and trees. The grass and trees were slippery, and the ground was slightly tilted. The ice gradually began to slide towards the edge of the pool, and when most of it was suspended above the pool water, it finally tilted down, " Plop" into the water.

Turning back, the centipede saw the ice cube flipping down, and the thing in its mouth fell to the ground, so it screamed anxiously and crawled over quickly.

The pool quickly returned to calm, as if nothing had happened. The centipede was so anxious that its tentacles danced wildly. It walked around the pool a few times, leaned down, and immediately retracted after being scalded. After trying this several times, it seemed that it had adapted to the water temperature. He leaned his huge body down, but unfortunately the pool was too deep, the centipede would only float on the surface of the water, and groped for a long time under the water, but found nothing.

The centipede landed slumped, moved its tentacles, let out two mournful groans, and lay still on its stomach.

Chapter 88 [Night Assault] With the effort of a stick of incense, how could he escape Lian Mufeng with a trash on his back?

Xie Ji spent 20 years recharging his energy in Fengling City. Finally, he couldn't hold back anymore and pulled out the banner of "Qing Emperor's side". The army rushed out and went straight to the capital. Crusade against the daring false emperor and Xie Rongzhen.

Once the news came out, the world was in an uproar.

Zheng Qian had already made preparations, and issued an edict without any haste: order General Yang of Yangpingguan to immediately mobilize troops and horses to meet the enemy.

Yangping Pass is close to Fengling City, and the emperor recently transferred General Li, the original guard of Yangping Pass, to General Yang to lead the army. It took only a few days for General Yang to come in handy.

The eyes of the courtiers looking at the emperor unconsciously added a bit of subtlety. The sickly emperor said every day that he was dying, and tried again and again to overcome all opinions, and made Xie Rongzhen the emperor's grandson. I thought he was really going to be useless, but I didn't expect to be able to plan for a rainy day at a critical moment...

For a while, many people took a break from their restless thoughts, put on faces of worrying about the country and the people, and focused on the inexplicable war.

Both Xie Ji and Luan Fengming were smug and determined to make a big fuss about the true and false emperors. In order to win the trust of the world, they specially forced the emperor to leave several handwritten letters, and sent people to the capital to hand them over to the court. In the hands of several important ministers, it is a pity that they have calculated thousands of times, but they did not calculate that Fengling City had already been exposed, so that these handwritten letters were intercepted by the Lianjia army dormant nearby before they could be sent out.

The handwritten letter was delivered to Lian Mufeng. Lian Mufeng opened it and looked at it. Without saying a word, he threw it into the brazier and burned it.

Zheng Qian's imitation of the emperor's handwriting can be said to be fake, but imitation is imitation after all, and people will not notice the abnormality when they don't doubt it, but once someone reminds them, they will present the real handwriting and compare the two. Just find a few people who are proficient in calligraphy If people come to identify it, the scene will not be able to sing.

Seeing the emperor's authentic handwriting burnt to ashes little by little in the brazier, Lian Mufeng picked up the long spear at the side and strode out and got on his horse. His heavy gaze penetrated the night and looked at Fengling City, until there was a sentry arrow rushing into the night sky , immediately kicked the horse's belly, and pointed the spear directly at the direction of the city gate in front: "Let's go in while their defenses are empty!"

With an order, the horseshoes flew, and the army was black and dense, like a storm passing through the border, directly approaching the city.

There was no sound on the city wall, no falling flints, no dense rain of arrows, only the corpses of the soldiers guarding the city lying on the top of the wall, Pei Yuan stood alone on the top, seeing the army approaching, he immediately shouted loudly: "Open the city gate— —”

The gate of the city opened slowly, revealing a fire that shot up into the sky inside. Lian Mufeng took the lead and led the army to rush in, and met the defenders who rushed to meet the enemy when they heard the movement. Chuan, with another sweep, all the people who rushed forward were thrown into the fire, and screams rang out one after another.

Lian Mufeng rushed in facing the flames, and the flames reflected on his stern and murderous face, his guns trembled, his hands were like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, a large area was cleared in front of his eyes, then he looked up and uttered only one word :"kill!"

When the two sides met, they quickly fought together. Arrows in the distance were like locusts, and swords and swords were in the vicinity. The shouts of killing in the city shook the sky.

This movement came too suddenly, Xie Ji and Luan Fengming were caught off guard, Luan Fengming thought he had heard wrong, and got up with a serious face: "Say it again!"

The person who came to report the news looked anxious: "All the granaries have been burned! The city gate has also been lost! People from Lianjiabao have already entered!"

Luan Fengming's eyes were about to burst into flames: "You guys didn't report such a big movement until now?" Without waiting for his explanation, he hurriedly asked, "How many troops did they come? Who led the soldiers?"

"No... I don't know... It seems that there are more people than us defending the city... The leader of the army looks like the Lord Lian Shaobao..." This person was reprimanded, and he was extremely wronged, and several granaries caught fire at the same time , the fire started so fast and urgently that it was too late to put it out, and when everyone was busy fighting the fire, the city wall was occupied. He was running and running, so he dared not waste time.

Luan Fengming gritted his teeth angrily, and asked again: "Where is General Chen?"

General Chen is the general who stayed behind to defend the city. Although they were all rebels, they deserved titles. The person who came immediately replied: "General Chen has already rushed over." I don't know if he is still alive right now.

Before the question was finished, there was a commotion outside. A guard hurried in and said as he ran, "It's not good! They rushed over!"

Luan Fengming laughed back angrily: "They are very familiar with Fengling City, it seems that they have already started planning!"

At this time, Xie Ji said: "It's useless to be angry, and there is no need to be angry. If the food and grass are gone, we can grab it along the way. If Fengling City is lost, we just go to the capital. I have stayed here long ago. It's okay to move another place." good."

Luan Fengming looked at him: "Then we must be able to get out."

He can take advantage of the chaos to go out alone, but there is a sick father in front of him, and a thief emperor who can't be left behind, and he drags two useless wastes by himself. want to go.

Xie Ji smiled hoarsely: "Come and carry me on your back."

Luan Fengming's brows moved slightly, she walked over and squatted down in front of him, took his hands and supported his legs to lift him up: "Father, where are you going?"

Xie Ji pointed in a direction: "The secret room."

Luan Fengming narrowed his eyes slightly, suppressed the concealed anger, and said meaningfully: "There is still a secret room?" He said to his confidant next to him, "Take the thief emperor with you!"

Xie Ji laughed and said, "Let's go to the secret room to stay for a few days. The people in Lianjiabao will leave if they can't find anything here. As long as we save our lives, we don't have to worry about anything until the army wins."

Luan Fengming didn't say anything. First, he was not in the mood to pay attention to him. Second, the sound of chaotic footsteps outside was getting closer and closer. He had no time to talk. He followed Xie Ji's instructions to find a mechanism to open the secret room. , quickly walked into the secret room, and closed the door again.

After a night of melee, Fengling City was in a mess. Lian Mufeng divided the army into two groups: "Pei Yuan, you take 8 people to Yangping Pass to reinforce General Yang! Xing Liu, you take the rest of the people to stay here, inch by inch." search for me!"

Last night's battle was a catch in a urn. The biggest turtle disappeared. It was impossible to fly out over the city wall. It must still be hiding somewhere in the city.Pei Yuan's news can't be wrong. Xie Ji dragged his body to the battlefield before, so he couldn't just walk away. The emperor is an important cover, so he couldn't just lose it. Ling Cheng didn't know how many holes were dug by Xie Ji, so he forced someone to dig three feet into the ground.

Lian Mufeng was standing in Xie Ji's living room when he gave the order, and Luan Fengming in the secret room could hear his voice clearly, but was shocked for a while, turned his eyes to Xie Ji, and hurriedly wrote on the stone table with his fingers: Yangpingguan, Yang.

Xie Ji had no internal strength, and was separated by a thick stone gate, so he didn't hear any movement outside. Seeing that Luan Fengming's expression was different, he hurriedly looked at the writing he wrote by the faint light of the fire, and then his expression changed slightly.

Yangping Guan was obviously guarded by General Li, when did it change to Yang?

The army is planning to pass through Yangping Pass. If the situation at Yangping Pass changes, then...

The two looked at each other, their hearts filled with turmoil, Xie Ji made a decisive decision, and raised his hand to signal: Let's go!

Luan Fengming squinted his eyes again, and said to himself: It was said to be a secret room before, but now the secret room will become a secret passage again?The old thing is very cunning, even I have to guard against it.

Thinking is one thing, doing is another, Luan Fengming didn't show any anger on his face, picked him up again, and touched the stone wall along the direction of his fingers.

Outside, in Xie Ji's living room, Lian Mufeng didn't go out after giving the order, but squatted down on the ground to check the footprints. Xie Ji is disabled, if there is a hiding place, it is most likely to be in this living room, but the footprints on the ground are messy , it is not easy to identify.

He looked at it for a while, then began to look around the room again, tapping lightly on the wall and floor tiles, and finally his eyes fell on a piece of charcoal in the corner, it should be someone coming in from the outside, and the hem of his clothes was stained with burning ashes. Accidentally brushed against the wall.

He extended around along this small piece of charcoal, groped carefully on the wall, suddenly lightened his hand, and heard a muffled sound, the wall in front of him burst open, and the surrounding men immediately surrounded him excitedly when they heard the sound.

Lian Mufeng raised his hand and put a sleeve arrow inside. Seeing that there was no movement, he immediately lit the fire pocket, and raised his foot first: "Go in."

The secret room is very spacious, and the furnishings inside can be seen at a glance. The torch on the wall is still burning, and there is a residual smell of medicine around it, which should be left on Xie Ji's body. Walk."

The mechanism inside the secret room is simpler than the one outside, and it didn't take long for the guards to find it: "Boss, here!"

The door leading to the secret passage opened again, and Lian Mufeng flew in. After running for a while, he heard footsteps faintly, and immediately released a sleeve arrow.

"Ding——" There was a crisp sound in front, and the sleeve arrow was blocked by someone with a sharp weapon.

Lian Mufeng immediately raised his foot to the wall, and used his lightness kung fu to catch up.

The confidant behind Luan Fengming withdrew his sword, grabbed the emperor who had already fallen into a coma on his back, and followed Luan Fengming closely. Luan Fengming gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice: "How long is this secret path?"

At this time, Xie Ji also became flustered because of Lian Mu Feng's pursuit, and said in a tight voice: "At least it will take a stick of incense."

Luan Fengming's heart sank when he heard it. How could he escape Lian Mufeng with a piece of trash on his back?

The secret passage was narrow and dark, and the sound of chaotic footsteps behind him was getting closer and closer. Lian Mufeng led a group of people chasing closer and closer, but there was no light in front of them. The road was blocked, otherwise Lian Mu Feng would still be able to catch up with them.

There was a change at Yangping Pass. Not only did their army have no reinforcements at the moment, they also had to face a formidable enemy. Lianjiabao’s attack had obviously been prepared for a long time. Could the change at Yangping Pass have something to do with Lianjiabao?This time... are they going to lose so easily?

The wind was blowing under Luan Fengming's feet, and his eyes turned black. Xie Ji's urging voice sounded next to his ears, which made him feel tyrannical. He gritted his teeth, and a trace of viciousness and determination flashed in his dark pupils. He shouted: "You go in front of me!"

The confidant didn't know, so when he saw him fall to the ground, he hurriedly flew past.

Luan Fengming got up immediately, and while running, put the torch in his hand behind his back, the flame touched Xie Ji's clothes, and the fire ignited with a "boom", Xie Ji was shocked, and said in a hoarse voice: "What's going on! Why is it on fire! "

Without saying a word, Luan Fengming threw Xie Ji, who was struggling in panic on his back, to the ground.

"Ah——" Xie Ji couldn't move, and the flames spread all over his body in an instant, "Ah——you son—you——"

Luan Fengming was afraid that he would call out his name, so he turned back and sealed his throat with a sword. Xie Ji struggled a few times with staring "hoho" and was completely silent.

When Lian Mufeng caught up with him, the fire had already blocked his way. He was shocked when he heard Xie Ji's roar before. At this moment, he didn't want to think about it, and immediately covered his nose and jumped over the fire. Pyro, he rolled several times on the ground, took off the coat that still had a little spark, and flew to continue chasing.

It's just this delay, Luan Fengming has already distanced himself from him, and when he chased out of the cave, there was no one outside.

The bodyguards under him rushed out one by one, all in a panic, and one of them ran to the side and vomited hard, and after vomited, he cursed: "Fucking is so inhuman!"

Even Mu Feng's face was extremely ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "Bring him out and see if it's Xie Ji."

The expressions of the bodyguards next to him changed one after another, but in the end, two of them who thought their stamina was extraordinary, turned back and walked in while pinching their noses.

"Boss, are you still chasing him?"

"I can't catch up." The other party has light skills, and it is impossible to find people through footprints.

Lian Mufeng raised his eyes to look at the grove in front of him, and put out the torch in his hand: "Go back to the city, gather the remaining troops and rush to Yangping Pass."
