The moment he fell down, Lu Mingtong saw Lu Douya's startled face.

A tearing pain came from his temple, Lu Mingtong pressed it slightly to relieve the pain, he tried to move two steps back, and said softly: "We have all been tricked."

But what kind of method can poison everyone in silence?

Yang Tong has just left, and he doesn't know when he will be able to bring someone back. If he is also poisoned, it will be even worse.

At this moment, the sound of fighting came from outside the wall.Lu Mingtong's pupils shrank immediately: "No, there's a fight outside."

He pulled Lu Douya to escape, but Lu Douya looked back and said in panic, "Young master, you're coming in!"

When Lu Mingtong turned around, a man in black just jumped down from the wall. With a sword flower, he killed the nearest disciple. Lu Douya screamed, and the man immediately sensed their presence, and walked towards them with a sword in his hand.

Blood dripped from the tip of the sword all the way, Lu Mingtong guarded Lu Bean Sprout and looked at him coldly.

There was a sound of breaking wind behind him, and the man in black turned around vigilantly, and joined hands with another person who suddenly appeared.

Reinforcements arrived?Lu Mingtong still had doubts about the identity of this person who suddenly appeared, but the man in black who had clearly shown his murderous intentions should be removed, he shouted: "Young Master Yang!"

The man in black really caught the trick, and subconsciously turned his head to look back. The other man seized the opportunity, lifted the opponent's sword with his strength, and stabbed him fiercely in the stomach.

The man in black fell down with resentful eyes. The man grabbed his collar and threw him aside, then turned to look at Lu Mingtong: "You are a disciple of the Yang family? Where is Yang Tong?"

Lu Mingtong said: "Who sent you here?"

The man was taken aback for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Lu Mingtong to bypass his question, and said with a smile, "You don't believe me?"

Lu Mingtong didn't answer, he continued: "If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have saved you just now. Where did Yang Tong go? I have something important to ask him."

Lu Mingtong clenched his fists and quickly calculated the credibility of this person, but the person lost his patience and said displeasedly: "Damn it, we took his money to do things, but the number of people on the other side is different from what we agreed on. It’s the same, you call him out, otherwise the transaction cannot continue.”

Lu Mingtong said: "Deal? What kind of deal did he make with you?"

The man said: "You little disciple, have you managed so much? Don't talk nonsense with me here. Either call someone, or I will let my people retreat."

His people?Lu Mingtong rolled his eyes and thought, "It turns out that half of the fighting sounds outside are made by his subordinates, so who is the other half?"Yang Tong made a deal with him, doesn't it mean that he has already guessed that such a day will come?

Before the situation is unclear, it is better to stabilize the opponent.Thinking of this, he stood up and said, "I'll call him right now, big brother, don't retreat, wait, I'll go right away!"

The man snorted softly, and Lu Mingtong walked back with Bean Sprouts, secretly thinking about their identities.

However, he had more heart than strength, and within ten steps, he was already dripping with sweat. Seeing that he was still refusing to move forward, the man doubted, "Why are you dawdling here? Are you from the Yang family?"

Taking a gamble, Lu Mingtong turned around and said angrily: "I'm not from the Yang family, who is? I just saw someone dead, my legs are weak, and I'm walking slower! You go outside and continue fighting, I will naturally Will call someone!"

That person obviously didn't expect that someone would be able to speak so confidently about his weak legs, he was at a loss for words for a while, Lu Mingtong gritted his teeth and ran forward a few steps, Lu Douya beside him said softly: "No, young master, I I can’t move at all, so leave me alone and run away.”

The two passed through an arched door and managed to get out of the sight of the people behind them. Lu Mingtong said angrily, "What nonsense, dare to say such disheartening words, and when you escape this catastrophe, I will ask someone to give you twenty big boards, and put you The ass is swollen!"

As he spoke, he pushed the man into the next room: "Stay here, I'll call someone!"

"Master!" Lu Douya yelled a few words in vain, Lu Mingtong left without looking back, finally rushed to the courtyard, the clothes on his back were already soaked in cold sweat, sticky to his skin.

But he didn't have the strength to wipe any more, his knees gave way and he fell to the ground. There were only a few steps left in the road in front of him, but it was more difficult than climbing to the sky to climb over.

The creepy pain had faded away, followed by an extremely heavy feeling of exhaustion, his hands and feet could not be lifted up as if filled with lead, Lu Mingtong cursed secretly, what kind of evil poison technique is this!

The guards who stopped him before were nowhere to be found. Lu Mingtong yelled a few times, but no one responded. He said in despair, the people in this yard must have left, and he made his trip in vain?

Just as he was thinking, someone behind him helped him up, Lu Mingtong turned his head in surprise, and suddenly opened his eyes wide as if he had seen a ghost.

"Why does Master Fengyun look at the old man with such eyes?" The man asked, "Does the old man look scary?"

The person in front of him was Master Yang, and Lu Mingtong was supported by him, but his back was stiff, and his eyes were fixed on his face - full of dimples, gray hair, and eyes full of bloodshot eyes.

This time Lu Mingtong can be sure that he must have taken the soul-returning grass for such an astonishing change in appearance.

But these are not important at the moment, Lu Mingtong took a breath, and said: "Master Yang, there is already a fight outside, most of the Yang family has been poisoned by some kind of poison, and their limbs are weak. If you don't go out and have a look, I'm afraid things will develop even worse. bad."

"Oh?" Master Yang glanced at the direction in which he was running, and said with a contemptuous smile, "I thought he could do anything, so it turned out that he played the trick of poisoning."

Lu Mingtong said: "Also, someone came outside just now, I don't know which power it is from, he said he wants to meet the eldest son, he has reached a deal with the eldest son. Did Master Yang meet the eldest son?"

Speaking of this, Master Yang's complexion finally changed: "Isn't Tong'er with you?"

Lu Mingtong's heart sank, and he said: "We were together just now, but we saw many people were poisoned and collapsed on the way, so the Eldest Young Master said that he would come to find a doctor, but Master Yang didn't see him?"

Master Yang's face was sinking, but he didn't answer, grabbed his wrist with both hands, and took him away like a chicken.

I stayed inside all the time before, and could only hear the sound of close combat outside, and it was only outside the wall that I realized that the battle was horrific.

The two sides are fighting fiercely, and blood and flesh are flying between the swords and swords.

The person Lu Mingtong had met before saw them, stepped out of the battle, and stepped in front of Master Yang. Seeing his hair full of silver hair, he asked a surprised question: "You?"

Master Yang said: "I am the one who made the deal with you."

The man let out a chuckle, and said, "I'll just say, that tone doesn't look like a brat. But..." He pointed back: "The number of people on the opposite side doesn't quite match what was discussed before. "

Master Yang frowned and said, "It's my plan that made a mistake, so you can go and get some people here."

"You think I don't want to?" The man smiled ho ho: "Master Yang can't tell, the other party is a professionally trained killer just like us. We agreed before that [-] people would be enough for your Yang family to dispatch." But now it seems that the number of the other party is only a lot more than ours, and it is not easy to go out and report the news."

Halfway through the conversation between the two, a man in black came to kill him with a sword. Master Yang angrily scolded him for being overbearing, and pulled out his sword to force him back.

A mist of blood sprayed in front of his eyes, Lu Mingtong's stomach twitched, and he was almost forced to vomit out by the bloody smell. When one person found that he was alone, he immediately slashed at him with a knife. Lu Mingtong screamed, and Master Yang turned around and kicked that person back. He got a sword in his hand.

Blood gushed out, but he didn't stop, took out something from his arms and threw it to Lu Mingtong: "Light it up."

Lu Mingtong hurriedly took it and saw it was a tiny signal flare.He erected the signal flare and ignited it towards the sky, and the yellow powder shot out into the sky, drawing a long-lasting trace under the clear sky.

So will rescuers come?Lu Mingtong threw away the empty shell, turned around and picked up the sword from the corpse beside him to defend himself.

Although Master Yang joined them, the opponent relied on the superiority of their numbers to force them to retreat steadily.

As the only person on the court who doesn't know martial arts, Lu Mingtong could only try his best to minimize his presence, put his back against the wall, and carefully moved to the side little by little.

At this moment, a familiar figure came into view, Lu Mingtong glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and froze immediately.The man smiled at him, and Lu Mingtong was about to speak, but Master Yang jumped out from the crowd, and the tip of his sword relentlessly went towards the heart of that person.

His eyes were about to split, and he said every word: "Pei, pity!"

Pei Lian dodged his attack, and took two steps back with a pale face. Master Yang's sword moves were pressing on him step by step, and Pei Lian drew out the sword at his waist to respond calmly.

Before Lu Mingtong recovered from the fact that he was still alive, he heard Master Yang say again: "Where did you hide Tong'er?"

Lu Mingtong was startled, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at Pei Lian, Pei Lian said slowly: "Master is really cruel, when he saw the apprentice who escaped from the fire, he didn't even say a word of greeting, so he used The sword came to greet. Isn't the master curious, how did I survive?"

"Bastard!" Master Yang scolded angrily, "You can survive, God is really blind!"

"Oh." Pei Lian sneered, and slowly said: "I don't think so, maybe God took pity on me because I was abandoned by my parents and teachers, so he gave me a way to survive and gave me a chance Come and see Master off in person."

Master Yang was so angry that he was gasping for breath. He had already expended too much energy fighting the man in black, and his attack speed gradually slowed down: "You ungrateful bastard! I kindly adopted you back then, but you I want to climb up to the position of the Patriarch of the Yang family, and even kill your senior brothers because of this, if I knew this, I should have killed you with a sword when you were young!"

Pei Lian seemed to have heard some big joke: "Master, master, you finally expressed your truest thoughts."

He glanced at Lu Mingtong and said: "Master, you should have done this a long time ago. You covered it up in front of Fengyun Envoy earlier, wasn't it just to accuse me of treason and desertion of friends?"

Lu Mingtong frowned, and Pei Lian said again: "I know what you are afraid of. Everyone in the world says that I will be the future head of the Yang family, so you are also worried that I will intentionally take away everything that belongs to your Yang family. In your heart , only those who flow the same blood as you are worthy of this position."

"But do you know, in fact, from the beginning to the end, I have no interest in the position of the Patriarch of the Yang family at all." While speaking, Master Yang had already shown his face, and Pei Lian stabbed into the chest of Master Yang without hesitation, bright red The liquid rushed out from that thin mouth, staining his clothes red, but he didn't care, just patted his face, and said in a very soft voice: "I used to respect and love you, and I regarded you The only respected teacher in my life, but you have never looked at me directly. I often think, that’s all, you gave me my life, and I will do whatever you want me to do.”

Then the voice turned cold: "Do you know that when you arrested me that time, I actually thought it was wishful thinking. If I could take this opportunity to let you remove my identity as a disciple of the Yang family, maybe I could come to see you more purely." Tong'er. At that time, you don't have to worry that I will never forget the position of Patriarch, and Tong'er doesn't have to be in a dilemma for me."

"But you are going to kill me in a blink of an eye, and marry the daughter of the Murong family to Tong'er." He held Master Yang's jaw with one hand, and watched the other party's teeth chatter under his hands, his eyes filled with sadness : "Why are you doing this? I don't have any other begging in my life, I just want to be with him, but you want to deprive me of the last bit of warmth."

Master Yang's complexion was pale, but he still looked at him with his habitual look of contempt: "Hahahahaha, I knew, I knew that you, a bastard, had special thoughts on Tong'er. Tong'er, he He is my son-in-law, the future master of the Yang family, a lowly bone like you molded from a ditch, you will never be worthy of him in your life!"

Pei Lian's hand suddenly tightened, and Master Yang's throat made an unbearable sound, Lu Mingtong said in surprise: "Stop!"

"Stop, Pei Lian." Lu Mingtong trembled: "If you kill him, the eldest son will hate you for the rest of his life."

Pei Lian was silent, but the people under his hands let out a series of shattered laughter. Master Yang had his usual victorious smile on his face, piercing Pei Lian's eyes red: "This old man is destined to die today!" Lost here, but Pei Lian, if you kill me, you still won't get everything you want. You must not guess that I am running out of time. After I die, Tong'er will blame everything on In you, you will be the biggest villain of the Yang family, Pei Lian, you can't beat me after all, and you don't want to get even the slightest benefit from me in your life!"

After saying that, he exhausted his last ounce of strength and raised the sword in his hand high. Pei Lian was startled, and subconsciously increased the strength in his hand.

The sword fell back halfway, and fell to the ground with a clang.

Pei Lian stared blankly at the dead person in front of him, let go of his hand, and retracted it like an electric shock.

The corpse fell to the ground with a dull sound. Pei Lian turned her head and walked up to Lu Mingtong step by step with the sword that was still dripping blood.

There was guilt in his eyes, but also a hint of determination.Lu Mingtong's heart sank.

"Sorry." Pei Lian said: "Someone helped me come here. As a deal, I promise him that I will give you your head."
