ancient criminal minds

Rong Zhen guarded Lu Zheng, and confronted Han Zhu and the others coldly. He thought that Ye Wenguan would betray them, but he didn't expect Han Zhu to come so fast. Now that the matter has come to an end, he can only find a way to block Han Zhu , Hu Luzheng left.

Han Zhu sneered: "His Royal Highness Chu, you'd better be obedient and arrest him with your arms tied. If so, at least I can spare the life of the young man beside you."

Rong Zhen noticed Lu Zheng's body movement, and quickly pressed his hand to cover him behind him.

"This matter has nothing to do with him. If you let him go, I will naturally let you deal with it."

After saying this, Rong Zhen pushed Lu Zheng towards the horse.When they came over, they rode two horses. Rong Zhen's horse was shot dead by Han Zhu, and only the horse that Lu Zheng rode was left.Rong Zhen entrusted Lu Zheng to the horse without any objection, and stopped his objection: "Be good, don't be willful!"

Lu Zheng gritted his teeth, but refused to let go of his hand.

Han Zhu watched them bid farewell coldly, but he was not worried that Rong Zhen would escape. His men and horses had already surrounded the future, and he would never let Rong Zhen escape again.Han Zhu knows Lu Zheng's identity. In fact, King Wei seems to hold Yanjing in his hands, but this is only temporary. What he wants is the submission of all the officials. The offense was too bad, and whether it was the British Duke or Lu Zheng's two elder brothers, they all had a certain status among civil servants and military generals. If it was not necessary, Han Zhu didn't want to hurt Lu Zheng, so as to confront them.So Rong Zhen asked him to let Lu Zheng go, but he didn't refuse.

Rong Zhen broke away from Lu Zheng's hand, smiled slightly, and then slapped the horse's buttocks forcefully, and the horse immediately carried Lu Zheng on its back and galloped away on the road that Lu Zheng made way for.

After Lu Zheng's figure had disappeared into the mountains, Rong Zhen looked at Han Zhu. Although he was already a prisoner, he did not show despair or anger as Han Zhu thought, but was as usual Cold and calm.

Han Zhu felt a little uncomfortable, so he couldn't help but take a step forward: "His Royal Highness, if you have any last words, you can say them now."

"The king has only one doubt."

"Say."

"This king and the king of Wei have almost never met each other, but you have been secretly assassinating. What is the reason?"

Han Zhu replied in a cold voice: "These things will naturally become clear after His Royal Highness the King of Chu goes underground."

Unexpectedly, after listening to his words, Rong Zhen smiled slightly: "I see." As soon as he finished speaking, the sharp knife in his hand stretched forward, heading straight for Han Zhu's heart.He didn't think about taking Han Zhu as a hostage. From what Han Zhu said, he understood that King Wei had a reason to kill him. According to Han Zhu's loyalty to King Wei, he would rather sacrifice himself to achieve the goal of King Wei. If he had no wish, it would be useless to take him as a hostage, so Rong Zhen didn't hold back at all, and he was the killer from the beginning.

Han Zhu faced the killing move without any confusion. On one side of his body, the short knife in his hand had already touched the dagger in Rong Zhen's hand. His other hand was clawed, and he grabbed Rong Zhen's neck directly. Rong Zhen missed a single blow. , but slid to the side along the force of this arrival, the blade turned over, and it still went towards Han Zhu's heart.

The two went through several moves in a very short period of time, and then they separated like water birds skimming the water. At this time, Han Zhu had two wounds on his arm, and Rong Zhen also had two wounds.Han Zhu wiped off the blood stains around his mouth, and curled his mouth: "Happy!"

Rong Zhen didn't speak, the blood from the wound dripped down his arm onto the ground. Behind him was the chaotic gunpowder depot, but Han Zhu just stared at Rong Zhen as if he didn't see it at all.

Han Zhuxiang prided himself on his martial arts, and never thought that Rong Zhen, as a prince, could be on par with him, but although he was happy to see Lie, he never forgot his duty. He took out the firecracker from his waist Came out, pointed at Rong Zhen, and said with a little regret: "Although I still want to fight His Highness the King of Chu again, it's just... I'm afraid I won't have this chance."

When Rong Zhen saw the firecracker, his pupils shrank. He had dealt with this kind of weapon before when he was in northern Xinjiang. Although he was caught off guard at the beginning and realized its power, he soon discovered it. The weakness of this thing is that its speed is too slow. Once the opportunity to win by surprise is lost, it only takes a round of heavy cavalry to destroy them. However, this is just a firecracker in the hands of Jie people. There must be better ones in hand.

He wasn't surprised when Han Zhu took out the firecracker, but he didn't expect that it would become so compact compared to the bulky firecracker used by Jie people before, and judging by Han Zhu's expression, he wasn't worried about the speed of this thing at all. It was too slow, which made Rong Zhen's heart sink and he was thankful, if they hadn't destroyed King Wei's gunpowder magazine, the northern army would probably have no bones left under this weapon.

Just as Han Zhu was shooting, horse neighing and a loud sound of piercing the air suddenly came from behind him. He didn't care about shooting, and quickly rolled to the side.

Nie Zhishu charged over on his horse, and when passing by Rong Zhen, he pulled Rong Zhen up, and quickly reined in the bridle, forcing the horse to charge in the opposite direction.

The people Han Zhu brought were dead men, and seeing that the two were about to rush out of the encirclement, he didn't care about his own life, so he grabbed his weapon and rushed towards them.

Rong Zhen frowned, and threw the dagger forcefully in his hand, the blade directly slashed across the neck of a person, and blood gushed out suddenly, before the person had time to speak, he fell down without a word, but the dagger continued to castrate, It was directly inserted into the chest of another person. Once the two died, a huge hole appeared in the encirclement.

Nie Zhishu cooperated with him tacitly, almost at the same time Rong Zhen threw the dagger, he pulled the reins hard, the horse neighed, its front hooves were raised high, it jumped over the two corpses, and ran down the mountain.

But before the two of them could relax, Rong Zhen suddenly heard the sound of breaking through the air behind him, and then Nie Zhishu leaned forward suddenly.

"Stop sparse!"

Nie Zhishu gritted his teeth, slapped the saddle forcefully, rose into the air, and rolled directly off the horse. With a long knife in his hand, he directly blocked the pursuers.

"Looking for death!" Han Zhu's eyes flashed with hostility, and the firecracker in his hand fired two shots in a row, both of which hit Nie Zhishu's vital points. If it were an ordinary person, he would have fallen by this time, but Nie Zhishu relied on his strength With great perseverance, he firmly stopped the pursuers.

In the process of chasing and killing Rong Zhen, Han Zhu was stopped again and again, which made his bad temper even worse. A cold light flashed in his hand, but he directly pointed the dagger at Nie Zhishu. neck away.Nie Zhishu was seriously injured, but he blocked Han Zhu's few moves before being restrained by him. Han Zhu swiped the dagger forward, and hot blood spattered his face.

Han Zhu threw Nie Zhishu's body aside, and mounted his horse to chase after Rong Zhen.

At the same time, Rong Zhen saw Lu Zheng who had gone and returned, he frowned, but saw Lu Zheng turned the horse's head very unskillfully, beckoning him to run forward.Rong Zhen knew that time was urgent, and Nie Zhishu was afraid that he would not be able to buy him more time, so he could only run in the direction of Lu Zheng.

The sound of chasing soldiers could already be heard behind them, and he even heard two gunshots, but the distance was far away, allowing him to hide.

Lu Zheng's equestrian skills are not good, let alone in this kind of rugged mountain road, Rong Zhen urged his horse to catch up with him, but he saw him turn sideways in a hurry, the torch in his hand flashed, and threw it behind the two of them , It's just that the spark lit up in the sky, but it fell directly to the ground.

It's just that when the sparks flashed, Rong Zhen already saw the traces of light reflection not far from the fire fold, he already understood Lu Zheng's intention, he didn't want to waste any more time, and took out the last fire from his body Zhezi, threw it directly towards the reflective place.

With a sound of "Coax!", a line of fire instantly separated them from the pursuers, and although this line of fire only temporarily blocked the pursuers, it was enough for them.

Lu Zheng knew that he didn't have the skills, even if he stayed where he was, it would be Rong Zhen's burden, so when Rong Zhen sent him away, he didn't hypocritically say that he would stay and die with him.Lu Zheng always wanted to live, to live together.

When they made simple bombs before, only the second bomb was successful, so there was still some oil left. Lu Zheng poured the oil on the only way down the mountain, and deliberately chose a narrow road. Then he rode back to look for Rong Zhen. He had already thought clearly that if Rong Zhen died, then he would die with him. If Rong Zhen did not die, he must bring him out alive.

Han Zhu's horse leaned back in shock at the place where the flames suddenly ignited. Fortunately, Han Zhu jumped off the horse in time, otherwise he might be thrown out by the frightened horse.

Han Zhu rolled around on the ground, but he didn't care about his injuries. Instead, he took out his firecracker and fired a few shots at Rong Zhen's back, but after all, through the flames, these shots didn't hit Rong Zhen. Zhen.

Han Zhu's face became extremely ugly in an instant. His subordinates were divided into two groups. One group went to put out the fire, and the other group calmed Han Zhu's frightened horse. "Commander, what shall we do next?"

Han Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly, but suddenly pulled out his gun and fired two shots at his horse. The horse neighed in pain and fell down.

After finishing this, Han Zhucai said coldly: "Follow up, no matter what, we must kill him!"

"Yes."

Looking at the traces that had disappeared in the mountains, Han Zhu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
