Crown Sword

Unable to achieve Qinggong and without the tools at hand, Gong Yangyue didn't dare to jump off the cliff at will, so she had to change course and chase in the direction Qiao Ling was escaping from.The king's tomb is in the east of the city, and the kite landed outside the city. Qiaoling took advantage of the intricate terrain of the mountain city and used the streets and alleys as a cover to pass through the city to the place of transaction.

If Ding Baichuan's calculations are correct, then when the personal guards arranged by King Hao arrive, they will only meet Zhang Xiuyi, Wei Xi, and Gong Yangyue, and will not find that the Seven Sword Guards are also involved, because the remaining The next six swords are all in the palace.

Gong Yangyue, as the first suspect, was dragged away as soon as he entered the city, and the people who dodged and chased did not catch up, but accidentally bumped into Chao Chen.

Chao Chen yelled at him, "Where did you come from?"

When he answered with his finger behind him, Chao Chen's face was ashen, and he supported the stone wall with his hands, puzzled: "No, there shouldn't be a road here, that map..." Gong Yangyue didn't notice this in a hurry. As soon as he heard what he said, he immediately took out the blueprint that he carried with him and unfolded it. After a closer look, the wrong position was indeed marked on the blueprint.

Such omissions cannot be found without comparison.

Gongyangyue was furious and wanted to tear up the blueprint, so Chao Chen hurriedly snatched it away, saying that map maps are hard to come by, and it's not uncommon to make two or three mistakes, and they can be used again, but they need to be careful from time to time.

After hearing what he said, Gong Yangyue made a rough plan of the route, put away his things and continued chasing him.Chao Chen didn't move, just stood in the shadows, if he didn't breathe, he wouldn't even notice anyone.

After chasing him for two steps, Gong Yangyue, for some reason, remembered how he had asked the question loudly just now, turned back quietly, stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes.

no response.

"You can't see?" Gong Yangyue grabbed his hand and pulled him towards her, "When did it happen?"

Chao Chen wanted to break free: "Fu Yuyu, hurry up and chase..."

Gong Yangyue suddenly raised his voice: "I'm asking you when!" He was still normal when he was in Wang Ling, but he couldn't see clearly when he blinked. Seeing that Chao Chen was in good health, it was obviously not the latter.

"I'm fine, it's probably a bird blindfolded, I walked into this dark place just now, and I couldn't see clearly in the blink of an eye," Chao Chen hissed, trying to interject and urge him again and again, but he couldn't find a chance. I can only persuade him earnestly, "It's just that the night vision is damaged, it's okay, don't be delayed because of me..."

Gongyangyue took out the fire folder and was about to blow it on.

The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the alleyway, neat and orderly, and one heard that it was a well-trained person, probably not a killer, but a soldier of Goguryeo.Chao Chen stared at the direction where Huo Xingzi was jumping and shot, pulled the person closer, and wiped out with his sleeve fan: "Don't worry, the forces in the city are complex, the more eye-catching, the more they will be targeted."

The forces in the city are complex, so how can Chao Chen be here alone?He has never practiced Blind Saber, Blind Sword and Blind Fist, and it is still a long time before dawn, so there is no guarantee that there will be no mistakes in the middle.

Gong Yangyue put away the fire bag, but neither left nor let him stay, but took off his hair and tied the red string, and tied his right wrist with his left wrist.

"Follow me!"

As soon as the words fell, a knife came over: "Hand over the things!" Chao Chen barged away with the sound of the wind, and Gong Yangyue drew his sword and turned around, intersecting with him, beheading the assassin.

How come a random shrimp soldier and crab general dare to ask him to hand over something!

"go!"

Gong Yangyue withdrew her sword and pulled Chao Chen away.After the martial law, the streets with scattered levels were extremely deserted, not even a lantern was seen, and the lights in a few residential houses could be seen faintly, and they were quietly extinguished after the sound of beatings and killings. Chao Chen was completely plunged into darkness.

Not only one assassin came, but they rushed out from time to time. It was easy to solve, but it was annoying, and both of them were a little restless.They will ask them for it, obviously they are not on the same level as the assassins of the royal tomb, and they don't look like Goguryeo people in appearance, I'm afraid they still have the power to fish in troubled waters and want to be a fisherman.

Ram Yue decided immediately, just shake off the tail, don't waste effort and time.

"Come!"

He flew up to the stone wall, stretched out his hand to take Chao Chen, threw him onto the roof, and followed him to the side, swept to the pole and wooden frame to block the pursuers, and when he stood still, he half-kneeled down and ordered in an irrefutable tone. Said: "Come up!"

"what?"

"I told you to come up!" Gongyangyue said, while throwing his hand tied with the red rope to her shoulder, she couldn't help but forcibly carried the person on her back, and added a word: "Don't hold back."

Chao Chen immediately fell silent.

The house was built along the mountain, with clear layers like stairs. Gong Yangyue ran up and down the roof ridge with Chao Chen on his back. The wind howled, and fine snow fell from the sky, falling on the cheeks of the two of them.

"Gongyangyue." Chao Chen called him in a muffled voice, but didn't say anything, just quietly hooked the red thread on his wrist with his little finger.

Gong Yangyue tilted his head, looked at him, and made sure that he was all right, and then he didn't rush, nor was he impatient to blame, but calmed down and waited for him to speak.

For some reason, at this moment, Chao Chen felt very at ease, an unprecedented peace of mind.He looked directly into his heart in the dark, emotion finally defeated reason, he didn't want to think about the world, he didn't want to think about his position, and he didn't want to worry about the future. At this moment, he only had one thought, and that was that abnormality wanted to speak, to tell him, own mind.

"Gongyangyue, I..." Just when he mustered up his courage, Gongyangyue stopped, the wind in his ears stopped suddenly, and the murderous intent rushed towards him, covering the two of them.

Chao Chen raised his head, on a moonless night, he could only vaguely discern a pale shadow in his bewilderment.

Holding the saber, Bai Ying killed him with lightning speed. Judging from his aura and saber aura, he was definitely not a young man who was not successful just now.

"Put me down."

Chao Chen understands that it is not good luck to carry a sword with people on your back, and they are on the roof, the terrain is unfavorable, and the foothold is narrow. Once restrained, he will become a burden, so he patted his shoulder and urged.But Gong Yangyue didn't let go, but stopped at the same place, short of breath, and seemed to be judging the current situation.

Not much time left.

Chao Chen struggled hard, and Gong Yangyue let him go, let him stand on the ground, then followed the red line, firmly held his wrist, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

At that moment, it seemed that there was an iron wall standing in front of him.

Where is he afraid!Thinking of him is too cowardly!Chao Chen protested silently from the bottom of his heart, but couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and smiled slightly: Well, he was really afraid, but he was afraid that Gongyangyue would have difficulty walking because of it.

"I'll try not to be a drag on you. If..." Chao Chen said calmly, "you just let me go." When we meet on a narrow road, we must ensure complete force, without any restraint or involvement, in order to have a chance of winning.

But Gongyangyue said proudly: "I'm not!" Then she rushed forward, pulling the man with one hand and holding a sword in the other.

The man in white took a step forward on the ridge of the roof and pulled out a long knife with a slender blade and a blade as thin as a cicada's wing. He was wearing a cloak and wrapped from head to toe, making it difficult to see his figure and appearance.

The sword of "Yucheng Snow Ridge" came, and the two immediately fought.

Chao Chen's heart was beating like a drum, he couldn't help him, he could only hold his ears and hold his breath while following Gong Yangyue's footsteps, relying on his hearing to catch the movement around him.

"Flying dragon and phoenix!"

The sword flower turned sharply, and an afterimage was condensed under the cutting. Gong Yangyue's attack-defense style of play was in a desperate situation.This is not a martial arts competition, the brilliant tricks are suddenly inferior to all practical purposes, he has only one purpose——

Who is this person?

After twenty strokes, after finding out the way, Gong Yangyue made a face-saving attack, or scratched his robe, just to identify the dog blocking the way.

The man in white was not stupid either, he didn't try his best, while fighting, he avoided the edge until he searched for a gap to find a flaw. At the No.30 move, he finally seized the opportunity, swiped his saber flat, turned around suddenly when he slammed the long sword away, broke through the defense, and immediately raised the saber to pick Chao Chen.

Gong Yangyue turned around to pull, and the empty door opened wide.

At this time, the long knife turned around and pierced towards Gong Yangyue's sternum, and Gongyangyue lowered his waist, and the scabbard poked out from the side of his ribs, able to catch that move.After time was spared, the long sword had arrived, and he pushed and pulled it with his backhand, and slashed towards the waist of the man in white.

"Ding-dong-"

The blade failed to penetrate into the flesh, and accidentally broke the silver hook hanging on his waist.Gong Yangyue stretched out his legs and kicked, the man held his chest and abdomen back, sneered, and jumped off the roof.

As soon as the silver light died, Chao Chen heard the sound and reached out to catch it.

"What is this?" He didn't recognize the purpose of this thing, so he spread his palms and showed it to Gong Yangyue.Just look at the hook, there are still stains of blood.

Gong Yangyue's face changed drastically, she almost gritted her teeth and called out the name: "Miao Dingwu!"

Back then Miao Dingwu carried a gold-backed big ring knife with a barb hidden in the back of the ring, tied with an iron chain, like a scorpion's tail, and often won by surprise in close combat.

"You said that person just now is Miao Dingwu?" Chao Chen asked.

"No, it's impossible!" Gongyangyue held the silver hook and denied it first, "It's absolutely impossible! Six years ago, in the East Lake of Lujiang River, he had clearly..."

Chao Chen grabbed his arm with an excited expression: "What did you say? East Lake?" He never thought that the question he hadn't asked all this time would be broken in such a situation. Miao Dingwu was the one chasing after Donghu. Could it be that he was wrong from beginning to end?

"Oh, I will always remember that day!"

The appearance of Miao Dingwu has almost rewritten the trajectory of Gongyangyue's life, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a turning point in fate. When he mentions this person, he can't help frowning deeply, his veins are stretched out, and his sneer reveals the hatred that frustrates his bones. , the words also added skin-cramping anger: "That day, I finally found him, in Lujiang. During the fight, he attacked with a scorpion tail. I cut off the silver hook and the flesh of his body. There is no mistake. ..."

Chao Chen desperately wanted to know the follow-up, so he tightened his grip on Gong Yangyue's arm by three points.

"He still wanted to escape, heh, how could I let him go easily, I chased him all the way to the East Lake, he had nowhere to go, I slapped him, and threw him into the lake with my own hands, I used that slap That's enough skill." Gong Yangyue grinned and smiled silently, her face hidden in the shadows, looking a little ferocious.

He was very fortunate that Chao Chenye had no vision at all and couldn't see clearly at all.

Chao Chen let go, and his shoulders couldn't help trembling: "You, did you see his face?"

"No, it rained heavily at night, and it rained heavily."

"Gongyangyue, I..." Chao Chen looked up, stunned, wanted to speak but his throat tightened, his voice was lost, only his lips were fluttering, "That person is not Miao Dingwu."

Gong Yangyue subconsciously thought that "that person" referred to the white-clothed man just now, and sneered: "Whether it is or not, you will see for yourself!" After speaking, he held Chao Chen's waist and toes, and landed on a nearby tree. Go up, trying to squeeze out three points of tenderness, "You wait for me here, don't move."

The leaves have not yet fallen, and the shadows are intertwined, so it is no problem to hide a person.

Chao Chen wanted to hold him back, but when Gong Yangyue turned his head, he didn't bother to explain it. He had already cut the red rope with his sword. When he was in Mianzhu, someone made a big fuss about the past, and now Miao Dingwu's things reappeared, I'm afraid it's no coincidence .

This is his heart knot and also his debt, no one can stop it, Chao Chen can't chase anyone, standing alone on the tree, his mind is buzzing, only blank -

That person wasn't Miao Dingwu, at least not the one who fought Gongyangyue in the torrential rain in East Lake.

Chao Chen lowered his arms, that person is clearly me!
