Happy trip to the Tang Dynasty

On the night after three days, the moon and stars were sparse.

According to Tang Ying's plan, a group of disciples from the Tang Sect sneaked into the Nanzhao Imperial Palace smoothly. According to the plan, they either cleared out the hidden guards in the palace, or occupied favorable terrain to guard the wind.

But Tang Ying himself had returned to the Nanzhao Palace three days ago, and had been lurking at the bottom of the lake near the Yushui Pavilion.As long as the time comes, he will be responsible for touching the Ting Yushui Pavilion and assassinating Ge Luofeng.

There is a huge waterwheel that is extremely high above the roof beside the rain pavilion. Driven by mules and horses day and night, the waterwheel keeps turning, driving rows of bamboo buckets to pour water on the roof of the water pavilion, like a heavy rain pouring down. Hence the name "Listening to the Rain".

By changing the size and quantity of the bamboo buckets, the "rainfall" can be adjusted, whether torrential or drizzling. Even in the midsummer of June, the house is cool and pleasant, which is why this place has become Mrs. Xianghua's favorite summer place.

Although it was night now, the waterwheel was still running, and the sound of water around the water pavilion was loud and noisy.Fortunately, Tang Ying's hearing is different from ordinary people. Not only can he hear some sounds that others can hardly hear, but he can also describe specific scenes in his mind through the sound.

Two days ago, he heard the footsteps of many palace people in Yushui Pavilion, carrying heavy objects and decorating the room;

Yesterday, he heard that under the care of dozens of palace guards, eight warriors carried a heavy coffin into the water pavilion;

During the daytime today, he heard that the royal monks in the imperial palace held a ceremony to pay homage to Mrs. Xianghua;

An hour ago, Ge Luofeng appeared, and after entering the water pavilion, she drove everyone away, not even the guard at the door, and then stayed alone in the house.

Intermittent voices of Geluofeng drinking and talking to herself came from inside the water pavilion, all of which are some nostalgia and memories of Mrs. Xianghua.Tang Ying couldn't help thinking that if the junior sister was here, she might make a fuss again.

After that, there was no sound, only the "squeak" of the waterwheel, and it was extremely silent.

The first watch is human, the second watch is gongs, and the third watch is ghosts.

At three o'clock, there was finally an obvious snoring sound from inside the water pavilion.

Hades tells you to die in the third watch.It seems that this time should be the most relaxed moment for Ge Luofeng.

Tang Ying emerged from the water, glanced at the guard standing on the shore more than 30 feet away, then climbed up a pillar supporting the water pavilion like a gecko, and stuck it under the floor of the water pavilion.

Three days ago, in the middle of the night after the palace people had finished decorating the room and moved out, Tang Ying had secretly pried loose a piece of floor in the corner, and then plugged the floor with two wedges, so that the floor was still motionless when stepped on, and it looked like nothing. No abnormality.

But now, he just pulled out the wedge, moved the floor aside, and sneaked into it.

There was silence in the pavilion.There are a few red candles and sandalwood burning around, the light is dim, and white smoke is lingering in the house.In the middle of the room was a table for the Eight Immortals, with a mess of cups and plates on the table, and several wine bottles rolled aside.There was a coffin beside the table, and a man was lying on the ground on the other side of the coffin. From Tang Ying's perspective, only a pair of boots could be seen.

The waterwheel is still pouring water on the roof in a "squeaky" manner, and all the sounds that may be produced during the hands-on will be covered up. It is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a move.

No one noticed.

all the best.

However, it was too smooth.

A premonition of danger rose in his heart.Hiding his body in a dark corner, he unexpectedly had a moment of hesitation that he had never had before.

However, such unfounded intuition is no reason to stop acting.If he missed this excellent opportunity to assassinate because of this, not only he, but also the other nine fellow disciples who acted with him will be severely punished.

Forget it, maybe it was just my own momentary bewilderment. With my own martial arts, there is no reason to miss an ordinary brave man under such circumstances.

Tang Ying relaxed slightly, pulled out a delicate crossbow from his back, and walked around the coffin without a sound, only to see the tall man on the ground in a red wedding dress and a golden crown with his hair tied on his hands. Lying comfortably behind his head, he was looking at him with a smile on his face.Although his stature was similar to that of the King of Nanzhao, this person looked no more than [-] years old, with a heroic appearance and a majestic appearance. He was by no means the Geluofeng depicted in the information!

Counted!

Tang Ying's heart was cold.

He made a decisive decision and immediately pulled the trigger, and a string of crossbow arrows shot at the man, attacking every vital point of his body at the same time.

But as soon as he started, he found that the breath in his body was stagnant, and his movements were at least [-]% slower than usual.If his Lianju arrows were deployed normally, he could fire seven arrows at a time, but at this time he only fired four arrows.

The man in red tilted his head calmly, dodging the two arrows that were aimed at the center of the eyebrows and throat, but he did not dodge at all the two arrows that were aimed at the heart and abdomen, only hearing two "clangs" , the two arrows hit, but made the sound of gold and stone.

But Tang Ying didn't intend to kill the target at all. At the same time when he shot the arrow, he had already jumped away, but as soon as he raised his inner strength, he felt that the meridians of his limbs were bitten by millions of insects and ants. It was also difficult to do it, and before running a few steps, his legs softened, and he almost fell to his knees.

"The thieves will catch their ears before they tie their hands!"

Suddenly, torches were lit outside the water pavilion, and the door was knocked open with a "bang", and a group of Nanzhao soldiers rushed in and surrounded Tang Ying.

At this time, Shi Shiran, the fake lover in red wedding dress, got up from the ground and stood in front of Tang Ying with his hands behind his back.He pulled out the arrow on his body, and the golden light flowed in the torn clothes, which turned out to be a golden silkworm armor, which is the most precious treasure in southern Xinjiang!

"My lord, the assassin has lost his wings!"

A remark made by the general to please his master made Tang Ying lock on the identity of the target all of a sudden.

Prince Nanzhao's son?What about Nanzhao King?

But thinking about it now doesn't help. In the blink of an eye, Tang Ying can only think of one thing——

- Capture the thief and capture the king!

With all his strength, he released all the hidden weapons on his body.Peacock feathers, stone splitting crossbows, caltrops...

All of a sudden, there was a bloody storm in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and many soldiers were caught off guard by hidden weapons that were poisoned and took their lives.But Tang Ying took advantage of the chaos instead of retreating, and rushed towards the son of the Nanzhao prince—Feng Jiayi.

"Protect the prince!" The guards reacted quickly despite their panic, and the four of them immediately blocked Feng Jia's body to form a human wall.

"Chi Chi!" The crossbow fired at close range, and almost instantly, the heads of the four people were pierced by arrows, killing them immediately.

At the same time, Tang Ying quickly abandoned the crossbow. With a shake of his hand, a small steel pipe appeared in the palm of his hand, but it was the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle. If it was fired within such a short distance, Feng Jiayi would not be able to dodge it even if he was a Da Luo Jinxian.

"A bunch of trash! Can't even catch a person who has lost all internal energy!"

Feng Jiayi snorted coldly.

The coffin next to Feng Jiayi suddenly exploded, and splinters of wood flew out, and an old man in the robe of the Tianyi Sect flashed out, stretched out his hand and slapped Tang Ying's chest, Tang Ying felt a huge and unparalleled internal force like a boulder Hitting him, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the whole person was blown out of the waterside pavilion, and hung on the water wheel next to the waterside pavilion!

The Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle in his hand was deflected by a tiny bit, passed close to Feng Jiayi's face, and hit the guard next to him. The man died instantly without even humming.

The waterwheel had stopped at this time, but the sound of "rustling" like light rain was still there, but it came from the white smoke lingering in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.The white smoke floated out slowly, surrounded him, and invaded his ears, mouth and nose.Immediately, the last trace of physical strength he had accumulated disappeared.

A group of guards raised bright torches and took Tang Ying off the waterwheel.Tang Ying looked closely under the bright light, only to realize that the "white smoke" was actually groups of extremely tiny Gu worms!

Listening to the sound of waterwheels in Yushuixie can certainly hide the killer's whereabouts, but at the same time it also hides the sound of this Gu insect. Even Tang Ying, who is good at hearing, can't distinguish it!

"Thank you elder for help." Feng Jiayi nodded slightly to the elder of Tianyi Sect in the corner.

The old man saluted briefly and disappeared into the darkness.

Feng Jiayi turned his head to look at Tang Ying who was kneeling on the ground under the pressure of two guards, and asked, "Are you Tang Ying?"

Tang Ying bowed his head in silence, the mask on his face blocked Feng Jiayi's gaze.

But he was shocked in his heart.Why do they even know his identity?

Feng Jiayi's gaze fell on his sleeve, and he gestured slightly to the side. Immediately, a trusted aide cut open Tang Ying's sleeve with a knife, and another small bamboo tube fell out.

"What the hell is this?" Feng Jiayi laughed as he played with the small bamboo tube.

Tang Ying's heart suddenly hangs.

Desperate wolf smoke.

This is a special signal for the killer of Ni Zhantang. Seeing this signal means that the person who cast the signal is in danger, there is no need to rescue, no matter what mission you have, you must stop and escape quickly.

He was secretly accumulating strength just now, just to release this deadly wolf smoke.

"It seems that you want to use this thing, and this king will use it for you."

Feng Jiayi lifted the bamboo tube and pulled it, a scream accompanied by a blue ball of light soared into the sky, and then exploded a group of bright and gorgeous flowers in the sky, which lasted for a long time.

This seemed to be a signal. At different places in the Nanzhao Imperial Palace, there were immediately bunches of fireworks of different colors, with sharp whistling sounds, rising one after another, brightening the night sky, and even the moonlight seemed bleak. dull.

The last bunch of fireworks appeared outside the palace walls, pale pink.

If you can't afford the wolf smoke, you can meet the king of Hades!

"...My companions, what did you do to them?"

Tang Ying finally couldn't help it, trembling slightly, the sound was like a clear spring, Feng Jiayi was refreshed when he heard it, and then saw the slender body wrapped in the dark night clothes, with beautiful sound and shape, he couldn't help but look at the mask Under the appearance of exceptionally curious.

"Assassinating my Nanzhao royal family is a crime worthy of a thousand swords. It is the utmost benevolence for this king to leave their whole body."

"But you are different. Your assassination of Zhang Qiantuo actually made a great contribution to me in Nanzhao, so as long as you are loyal to the king, the king will not pursue your assassination this time, how about it?"

He strolled up to Tang Ying and took off his mask.

Having not exposed his face to the light for a long time, Tang Ying couldn't help but lowered his head uncomfortably, but Feng Jiayi immediately held his chin and lifted it up.

The beauty of the face under the mask far exceeded Feng Jiayi's imagination. He was handsome and resolute.

Feng Jiayi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed:

"Fun! Fun! What a game tonight!"

He opened his arms, and the sleeves of his red wedding dress fluttered: "It would be a pity if such an interesting game had a beginning and no end."

"How can there be no bridal chamber if there are flowers and candles today?"

"Tang Ying, since you are already in this game, play with me to the end!"

Tang Ying's pupils shrank suddenly.
