Biganchun

Chapter 19

Zhao Jue caressed the corpse for a long time, tears welled up in his eyelashes, bowed his head and was speechless.The crossbowmen were as motionless as wood carvings, aiming at Zhan Zhao and Qing Cheng, waiting for Zhao Jue's order to kill.

Zhan Zhao grasped the hilt of Zhanlu's sword tightly with his right hand, lowered his eyelashes, like an old monk in meditation.

The difference between life and death is only a moment.

Suddenly, the guards outside the secret room shouted: "Who is it?" But then there was no sound, as if they had been subdued.

Before the people in the secret room could respond, a figure in black flew into the secret room like a big bird. It was coming like a wind, stirring up everyone's clothes.

Zhao Jue scolded in a deep voice, "Who is here?"

The man in black laughed loudly: "Monk Huiguang Ouyang Chun, you came here uninvited, please don't take offense to your lord."

Amidst the laughter, he linked his hands together, and popped out more than ten black marbles, which jumped and landed around the secret room.As soon as the bullet fell to the ground, there was a burst of crackling noise, and a cloud of flames and smoke rose.In the secret room, flames blazed everywhere in the blink of an eye, making it difficult to distinguish people's faces.

When Zhan Zhao sees Ouyang Chun appearing, he is pleasantly surprised.As soon as he saw him throwing marbles, he knew it was Ouyang Chun's unique hidden weapon "Huo Bodhi".This fire bodhi is full of sulfur and charcoal, and the effect of igniting it is extremely powerful.

"Fire!"

"Hurry up and put out the fire, don't hurt the prince!"

"My lord, go first!"

The crossbowmen and guards were in a panic.Taking advantage of the confusion among the crowd, Zhan Zhao stepped out, Zhan Lu let out a long moan, and in the blink of an eye, all sixteen crossbows were cut into two pieces.

He kept moving, brushed past the Liannu people, and shot like the wind, restraining Zhao Jue's veins, and shouted to the guards and crossbowmen: "Stop! Zhao Jue has been controlled by me, if you care about his Your life, you throw down your weapons!"

The power of his sword cut off sixteen hard crossbows, the strength and urgency of the sword are really shocking.Everyone was startled and frightened, and seeing that he had restrained the King of Xiangyang, they had to throw down their weapons according to his words.

Zhan Zhao and Ouyang Chun exchanged glances, and said to everyone: "I don't want to embarrass you. The fire here is critical. If you still want to save your lives, leave this skyscraper immediately!"

The guards and crossbowmen had never encountered such a situation, and they were all Zhao Jue's personal guards, so they hesitated for a while.

Seeing this situation, Ouyang Chun shouted: "The big tree has fallen, so why bother to think about it? When you figure it out, I'm afraid it will become a cooked hozen!"

The guards and crossbowmen looked at each other in blank dismay.A guard suddenly turned around and rushed out, and the rest of the people followed suit.

Ouyang Chun stepped forward and patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder: "I came too late, but luckily there was no danger... I saw your posture at that time, so I knew you were injured, so I managed to get rid of that The two of you couldn't find you anymore. Fortunately, I secretly saw the guards escorting the Luan Brothers to this skyscraper, so I lurked all the way and followed this building..."

Suddenly he lowered his head and saw the body of the Luan brothers, his expression suddenly changed.He leaned over to close Luan Shizhong's half-closed eyelids, sighed, shook his head and said sadly, "It's just that I came too late... Amitabha... you two... have a good journey..."

Zhan Zhao saw that the fire in the secret room was getting stronger, and before he had time to talk to Ouyang Chun, he flipped his left hand, grasped Zhao Jue's wrist, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is the mechanism of the copper grid array?"

Zhao Jue was restrained by Zhan Zhao. He was shocked and turned pale at first, but now he was left alone, but he gradually regained his composure, and said calmly, "Zhan Zhao, do you want to commit the following crimes, so that you can't extract a confession from me?"

Ouyang Chun frowned thickly, strode forward, and slapped Zhao Jue twice across the face: "The poor monk lives in a Buddhist monastery, so he doesn't have so many worries about committing crimes! If the prince cherishes his body, he should say it early in the morning!"

Zhao Jue had never been beaten in his life, and suddenly felt extremely humiliated.His whole body trembled, his face contorted, and he sneered angrily, "Okay! The mechanism of the copper grid array is behind the last row of bookcases. If you can make chestnuts out of the fire, this king will obey you!"

Ouyang Chun and Zhan Zhao looked up and followed Zhao Jue's direction, and saw that the row of bookcases had already been engulfed in flames.Zhan Zhao frowned, and with a flick of his left hand, he hit Zhao Jue's Qihai acupoint.Zhao Jue's blood stagnated and he fainted to the ground.

Zhan Zhao and Ouyang Chun looked at each other, and they both walked to the copper net.

Ouyang Chun smiled at Qingcheng and said, "Female benefactor, are you safe?"

The night was full of unexpected changes, and everyone was shocked, but Qingcheng just said indifferently: "Master, are you safe? Don't forget, the master still owed me a lot that day."

Seeing her disregarding life and death, Ouyang Chun felt admiration in his heart, and couldn't help laughing: "When the benefactor gets out of this cage, I will explain it in detail for the benefactor. Take a step back, benefactor..." With a wave of his right hand, Gui Lingdao emptied out of its sheath, and shouted, "The third one from the left!"

In a flash of sunlight, Zhan Lu in Zhan Zhao's hand had already swung at the same time, together with Gui Ling Dao, he slashed towards the third copper grid from the left of the copper net.This saber and sword had exhausted the two people's life skills, there was only a sound of "clang", a scar was cut on the copper grid, but it was not seriously damaged.

Both Zhanlu Sword and Guiling Dao are rare sharp weapons in this world, capable of cutting gold and breaking jade, but this copper net array was originally refined by the secret method of brass in the Western Regions, and it is as thick as a child's arm. Even if you encounter these two magical weapons, It is also difficult to destroy for a while.

Zhan Zhao and Ouyang Chun were originally determined to win, but they couldn't help being startled when they saw this situation.Just as he was about to think of a solution, he heard a gust of wind behind him. It was the two masked men in black with swords who had just fought with Ouyang Chun outside the cell, rushing into the secret room.

Both Zhan Zhao and Ouyang Chun shuddered in their hearts, Qingcheng whispered in the copper net behind them: "It's a Yipintang killer, so be careful!"

While speaking, Zhan Zhao and Ouyang Chun had already wrestled with the two masked men.The clash of swords and swords, like a storm, spread out in the fire cave, it was indescribably dangerous and shocking.

After a few tricks, Zhan Zhao saw that the fire in the secret room was airtight, and heard the silver bell outside the secret room loudly, so he called to Ouyang Chun, "Brother Ouyang, I'll hold them back, you take Zhao Jue away first!"

Although Ouyang Chun felt something was wrong, he couldn't think of any other way for a while, so he could only say, "Okay...where will we meet?"

Before Zhan Zhao answered, Qingcheng in the copper net called out to the two of them: "There is an Aman girl in ten miles south of the city. Just tell her that I ordered you to find her, and she will help you leave Xiangyang."

Ouyang Chun agreed, and Gui Ling Dao rushed to attack three times, forcing the Yipintang killer who was fighting him to retreat a few steps, and took advantage of the situation to rush to Zhao Jue's side.The killer let out a low growl, and rushed towards him, but was stopped by Zhan Zhao's sword.

Ouyang Chun picked up Zhao Jue, broke out of the secret room from the flames, and left.Zhan Zhao used one against two, but the two killers were still unable to get away.

The figures of the three were tossing and turning in the firelight, and they fought for two or three cups of tea, and it was difficult to separate them for a while.Seeing that they couldn't get rid of it, the two assassins suddenly turned their swords, separated their figures, and raised their hands at the same time, and the two holding nails flew towards Qingcheng in the copper net.Zhan Zhao was startled, Zhan Lu turned back and rolled down a handful of mourning nails, but saw more than ten other mourning nails still hitting Qingcheng.

It was too late, it was too soon, Qingcheng swiped with his right hand, ripped off the skirt of the guard uniform on his body with a "chi", turned around in the copper net, like a yellow eagle spreading its wings, shaking its arms to the place where the soul nail came, and the internal force Everywhere, cloth and silk stirred up, knocking down all the nails of mourning souls.

Seeing that Qingcheng avoided the hidden weapon, Zhan Zhao felt relieved.The two Yipintang killers took advantage of the situation and both rushed out of the secret room, chasing after Ouyang Chun and Zhao Jue.

Zhan Zhao flew to the front of the copper net, suddenly let out a low cry, Zhan Lu sword swung towards the copper grid that had been cut just now.There was only a sudden sound, the cremation splashed everywhere, and the entire copper grid was shaken, but the dents on the copper grid were only deeper.

Zhan Zhao waved his sword again, slashing towards the copper grid like thunder, and there was another loud shock, but the copper grid was still not damaged.

The fire in the secret room rushed to the top, and it was extremely hot and stuffy, making it difficult to breathe.The tongues of fire are densely layered, gradually sealing off the way of life, leaving no gaps.

Zhan Zhao waited to make another move, but Qing Cheng took a step forward and reached out to grab the copper grid.

Zhan Zhao frowned, and said anxiously, "Get out of the way!"

Qingcheng shook her head slowly, and said softly: "Enough is enough..."

The sound of flames burning beside her was endless, covering her voice.

Zhan Zhao didn't hear her words clearly, and said again and again: "Get out of the way, be careful that Zhan Lu hurts you!"

Qingcheng lowered his head, and just caught a glimpse of a line of blood slowly flowing from Zhan Zhao's right hand, dripping onto Zhanlu's sword body, forming a streak of bright red—it turned out that the two swords had slashed on the copper net just now, and the rebound had already shattered. Zhan Zhao's tiger's mouth.

For a moment, she felt the blood in her heart surging, and she raised her head suddenly, with deep emotions in her eyes, both touching and annoyed: "Enough! For no reason, but in the end, I ended up accompanying me in this skyscraper." Is life worth it? You don't have to worry about me, just run for your life!"

Zhan Zhao was stunned, and said in a deep voice, "At this moment, where is there room for self-will? Leave here first, and it won't be too late to argue!"

Qingcheng avoided his gaze, and still held the copper grid with both hands, showing slender knuckles.The copper grid was scorched by the surrounding flames, and it was already hot to the touch, but she still held onto it tightly: "My parents and clan members were all buried in the sea of ​​fire in Ganzhou. Today, my soul returns to Zhu Rong, and it must be the same fate... Now that things are up to now, why do you have to force it?..."

Her hair flew up, and her voice was shrill: "I'm used to being lonely. Even on Huangquan Road, I wouldn't mind having more fellow travelers like you..."

Seeing her abandoning herself so much, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but burst into anger, and said sharply, "Your life is up to heaven, and your fate is up to people! If you say this is your destiny, Zhan will be the first to not believe it!" Zhan Lu rolled around in his palm, Jiang Guang Flash: "This skyscraper is definitely not the place where you will be buried!"

He was usually gentle and courteous, and he rarely got angry. Now because of the critical situation, he just showed majesty and domineering, but it was even more shocking.

Qingcheng was unmoved.She spread her arms, and threw her whole body onto the copper net.If Zhan Zhao used his sword again, the light of the sword would definitely injure her seriously.

Seeing her stubbornness, Zhan Zhao slapped her feet heavily.He took off his guard's robe and rolled it into a bundle of cloth sticks.Taking a deep breath, he suddenly rose into the air, and slashed at the flame on the side of the copper net with a stick.The energy soared into the air, forcing the flames to split in all directions, and a gap appeared in an instant, Zhan Zhao's body flashed, and he was already behind the wall of fire.

Qingcheng glanced over and saw that Zhan Zhao was going in the direction of the row of bookcases that Zhao Jue had pointed to earlier. She was shocked and shouted, "Zhan Zhao! Come back!" But there was no reply?

The fire has spread to the surroundings of the copper grid, and the tongue of flame seems to be invading into the copper grid.Under the melting light of the fire, she was like a solitary bird caught in a net, with fragile wings, no matter how difficult it was to spread.Everything around me seems to have returned to the night of Ganzhou 12 years ago.

It turned out that it was so difficult to escape from that memory.

It is difficult to know the way back, only to wait for Nirvana.She slowly closed her eyes, waiting for the last moment, not knowing whether it was joy or sadness in her heart.

Suddenly, there was a sound above the head, and the huge copper net unraveled its hooks and loops, and closed it upwards.Qingcheng was awakened suddenly, knowing that Zhan Zhao must have found the mechanism behind the bookcase and removed the copper net.Confused, she turned around and looked around, but Zhan Zhao was nowhere to be seen.

Most of the secret room had been burned, but the fire continued unabated.Qingcheng looked into the depths of the flames, but there was no one in sight.

She stared blankly at the raging flames raging around, and suddenly felt a chill on her cheeks, and raised her hand to brush it lightly, but it turned out that she had already shed tears unconsciously.

She was shocked in her heart, and thought: "I haven't shed tears for many years, why is it like this now? Could it be that I am so concerned about this person's life and death?"

The surrounding flames gradually approached, almost burning the skin on her body.The corners of Qingcheng's hair and clothes have already seen sparks, but they still stand still like a stone statue.

Time seemed to stop, and I don't know how many moments passed.

Suddenly a figure burst out of the fire wall like a phoenix on fire, and flew towards Qingcheng in an instant.

Zhan Zhao never expected that Qingcheng hadn't escaped yet, and was panicked for a moment: "Why are you still here?" Taking advantage of the situation, Qingcheng's arm helped her dodge a falling beam.

As if in a dream, as if in another world, Qingcheng slowly raised her head and stared blankly at Zhan Zhao.His eyes were bright and deep, and the thoughts in them were as complicated as hers—doubt and joy were intertwined, and there was also three parts of blame and one part of sentimentality.

Zhan Zhao let go of Qingcheng's arm, and casually put the roll of letter in his hand into his bosom: "This time, it's a good time - not only unraveling the mechanism of the copper net, but also finding the letter of alliance between the King of Xiangyang and Yuan Hao. Disgrace the mission."

Qingcheng woke up from a trance, turned her eyes away, but was full of embarrassment.Zhan Zhao didn't pay any attention to this, he held Zhanlu in his hand and looked around sharply, hoping to find a way out.

There was another loud bang, and another top beam fell straight down, leaving a narrow gap in the dense fire wall.

Zhan Zhao's eyes lit up, and he jumped up.He volleyed in the air, without looking back, his left hand stretched out backwards, passing a glimmer of life.As if reading his mind, Zhan Zhaofang jumped up, and Qingcheng immediately moved his body.The tacit understanding is hidden, the consonance is invisible, and unconsciously, it has already overcome the hesitation in the heart.

With long and slender fingers, as soon as Fang touched Zhan Zhao's palm, they were firmly grasped.Qingcheng Sui Zhan Zhao passed through the fire wall through the gap, and swept out of the secret room.

The outer room on the second floor of the Chongxiao Tower has already been affected by the fire at this moment.Amidst the thick smoke and flames, the sound of the floor being peeled was endless, and it was in danger.

The movement of the two of them was as fast as lightning, and they flew towards the closed window without stopping.

Zhanlu smashed the window with a sword.

The shattered window edges, mixed with sparks, fell from the window one after another.The guards and soldiers gathered downstairs screamed and dodged, and the situation was in chaos.

Walking to the window, Qingcheng slowed down, but the force in her palm did not allow her to hesitate any longer.

Zhan Zhao lightly scolded, "Go!"

The two of them joined hands and jumped down from the top of the building, like a pair of shooting stars across the night sky, shining brightly and following each other.

At the same moment, the entire skyscraper collapsed behind them.

The iron coupons of the Danshu, the broken walls and ruins, together with the fantasy dreams of the Tianjia and the Tyranny of the past carried on it, were all wiped out in the ashes.

Seeing him rising from a tall building, seeing him illuminated by thousands of candles, seeing him collapse in an instant.

When the prosperity fades to nothingness, do you regret using mountains and rivers as chess fields?

Zhan Zhao's horizontal sword soared into the air, intercepting dozens of cold arrows from all directions. The tip of the sword was a little on the ground, and the long blade was bent like a crescent moon. His body was already heavy and he took advantage of the momentum to rush out of the circle with Qingcheng. Just like a dragon entering the sea, it melts into the darkness of night.

The Xiangyang night wind was breathing again, still damp and stuffy, as if a heavy rain was brewing.After going through all kinds of thrills tonight, I feel suddenly separated from the world.

Clothes are fluttering, walking with the wind.He held hands with hers, palm lines overlapping.Although there are not a few words, but the pulse and heart breath are integrated, and it is no longer allowed to be inseparable.
