surnamed Wang

Chapter 248 Eight Pythons Purple Robe
The main road of more than a hundred steps to the north gate of the capital was smashed by the sword of the old man with a sword, and the smoke and dust filled the air for nearly a quarter of an hour before dissipating.

The black-cloth-masked woman ran up the roof and disappeared from Wang San's sight. The latter didn't pursue him, but ran directly outside the city gate.

At this time, one mile to the north of the city, Yu Mu stopped Wang Bingde by virtue of his speed. The latter stopped and frowned, his fingers hooked up a silk thread inside his cuff, which was connected to a hidden weapon.

Just when Wang Bingde was considering whether to use the hidden weapon, a man with a gun came to him.

"My lord, Mr. Lu asked me to meet you, so leave it to Yuan."

Wang Bingde glanced at the man, nodded and turned to leave. This man was the owner of the biscuit stall that Wang Bingde met once when he came to Beijing.

The middle-aged man looked at Yu Mu and Wang San who came not far away, licked his lips, and said:

"I have long heard that the hidden guards of the Dynasty are very skilled, let Yuan Mou ask for advice today."

After saying that, the man squatted down halfway, stuck out the spear in his hand, and made a gesture of starting.

The big gun in the hands of the man surnamed Yuan was completely black, even the tip of the gun was as black as ink, only the tip of the gun was a little golden.

This gun is called Chisel Gold.

Yu Mu frowned and looked at the other party, then said in a deep voice:
"Beitu Yuan Baihu."

"It's down."

There was a smile on the corner of the man's mouth, and he didn't have the slightest appearance when he was selling sesame seed cakes.

A black gun shot straight at the young man opposite him like an oolong.

Yu Mu hit the point of the opponent's spear with a single knife, and retreated with his body, standing together with Wang San who came from behind.

"Chiseled Golden Spear really deserves its reputation."

Yu Mu glanced at the steel knife whose corner had been cut off, and admired it from the bottom of his heart.

Wang San was as impatient as ever, and took the lead in slashing out. He had already fought too many weird people this night, and he failed to get any benefits every time, which made him a little irritable.

Yu Mu obviously knew the opponent's temperament, so he followed closely without talking nonsense.

The man nicknamed Yuan Baihu was originally a fierce general of Beitu. He was always indomitable in battle against the enemy. Being in the enemy's line was a common occurrence. At this moment, facing the siege of two people, he did not show procrastination at all.

The two hidden guards on the other side often perform missions together, and they cooperate very tacitly. At this moment, a strategy is formulated with a single look. Wang San attacks the upper plate, and Yu Mu attacks the lower plate. Although the big spear is long, it is only used for defense.

It is obviously not the first time Yuan Baihu has responded to this kind of coordinated attack. He raised the chiseled golden gun in his hand, and put the end of the gun on the ground to resist the attack from the lower body. He placed the gun head upwards on his chest. While resisting Wang San's attack, he From time to time, they stabbed at short distances, and the three of them fought back and forth for a while.

Seeing that Wang Bingde was getting farther and farther away, Yu Mu and the two couldn't help being impatient, and wanted to separate several times.However, Yuan Baihu, who has survived the battlefield, has a lot of experience. Whenever someone tries to get out of the battle, he will shoot the other person to attack, shake the body of the gun, and attack the person who wants to get away. The latter can only be passive. Resist, in this way, a scene of one dragging two is formed.

……

The jet-black spear named Chijin was extremely fierce, and wherever the point of the spear touched, a piece of the blade would inevitably shatter. In just a moment, the steel blades in the hands of the two were already full of gaps.

"Damn it, I knew I should pick a good knife."

Just as Wang San was talking, a round of pitch-black moon was heard mixed with the whistling of the wind. He hurriedly dodged in a bit of embarrassment, and the big gun fell to the ground with a sound, and there was an extra dirt pit where he was standing.

"What a domineering marksmanship, worthy of being one of the four generals of Beitu." Yu Mu sighed.

"Fight and fight, why talk so much nonsense?"

Yuan Baihu stabbed again.

Yu Mu deflected the attack dangerously, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: You have the ability to say that to the old man with the sword.

……

Just as several waves of people were fighting, a fat old man walked towards the palace gate.

The old man had a white face and no beard, and was dressed in luxurious purple clothes, with a simple long sword hanging from his waist that did not match the clothes.

The gate guards wanted to stop him when they saw this, but after seeing the old man's appearance clearly, they knelt down one after another.

The slightly chubby old man didn't go to see the guards, but walked past them like a leisurely stroll, passing by the brightly lit place, where the eight scary pythons on his purple robe were shining brightly.

……

"Yu Mutou, are you sure Huang Ying's side is fine."

The battle between Yu Mu and Wang San has become extremely anxious. The weapons in their hands have long been tattered, but Yuan Baihu on the other side is fighting more and more courageously. At this moment, his fighting spirit is getting stronger, and he danced vigorously with a big gun in his hand. wind.

Yu Mu spat out a mouthful of blood and said:

"Apart from that old monster in the dark guards, Huang Ying has the highest martial arts. She is the real Si snake. I'm just making up for it. Don't worry about it."

Wang San twitched his lips, "According to what you say, wouldn't it be difficult for me to enter the hidden guard?"

"That's why I told you to practice your knife well."

As Yu Mu said, he slashed away the long spear that was attacking in front of him, and the steel knife in his hand was finally overwhelmed, and it snapped into two with a "click".

"It's almost time to withdraw, that old monster should leave the palace, and leave the rest to him."

After Yu Mu finished speaking, he dropped half of the official saber in his hand and stepped back.

Seeing this, Wang San spit out a mouthful of bloody spittle, and his figure also began to retreat.

"Why are you leaving now, I haven't enjoyed myself yet!"

At this moment, Yuan Baihu's upper body is already naked, and there is a knife edge that shows the bone, which Yu Mu cut out at the expense of injury.

"Stop fighting, if you want to die, chase after him."

After Wang San finished speaking, he threw the steel knife in his hand and ran towards the city without looking back.

……

Inside the north gate of the capital, although the fighting situation here was not as severe as outside the city, the impact it caused was far greater than outside the city.

The old sword celestial's moves are full of strong energy. Huang Ying, who has a sword but doesn't use a soft whip, can't get any benefit, and can only be restrained everywhere. If the old man didn't intend to let it, the winner may be decided within ten moves. No way, it took nearly a hundred tricks to destroy only a few houses.

"Girl, the old man knows that you are deliberately delaying time, waiting for the old eunuch in the palace, so what if he comes? Can you stop the old man?"

It was already extremely difficult for Huang Ying to resist at this moment, and she didn't have any extra strength to talk to the old man again.

At this moment, a purple figure waved away the sword energy of the old man surnamed Ye, and then stood directly beside Huang Ying.

The old man surnamed Ye smiled when he saw this, "Hey, you old eunuch are not dead yet?"

"How could I die if you weren't dead?" the fat old man said in a deep voice.

Ye Jian looked at the other party in a purple python robe, his eyes were hale and hearty, and he spoke slowly:
"Zhou Xuantong, even if you become a powerful figure, and you can't have a son and become an emperor, what are you doing with your life? Instead of being timid, you might as well have a quick fight with me."

The slightly fat old man didn't care about the other party's cruel words, so he just took off the simple long sword hanging from his waist, handed it to the woman beside him, and said:
"Your Majesty said that you can use the sword now."

After finishing speaking, he no longer cared about the old man who spoke rudely, and went straight to the outside of the city.

Seeing the other party's figure going away, Ye Jian muttered: "It's still that deadly virtue."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the woman opposite again, "Girl doll, can you use all your abilities?"

……

The chubby old man named Zhou Xuantong left the city gate and headed north all the way. His footsteps seemed not to be in a hurry, but his speed was extremely fast.After a while, they met Yu Mu and the two who had turned back halfway.

The two seemed to be familiar with the old man, they just nodded and greeted, and then continued to run towards the city.

……

Inside the palace, the Hall of Mental Cultivation was brightly lit. The emperor lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time. Although his body had reached its limit, he still wanted to wait for everything to settle.

The old man who left the palace tonight has many titles, eunuch in charge of the House of Internal Affairs, eunuch in charge of ceremonies, these are all visible on the surface.

When the first emperor was alive, he personally gave him the surname Zhou. Even Yan Hong, the eunuch with palm seal at that time, did not have this kind of treatment. Zhou Xuantong is in charge.

On the day Zhou Xuantong took office, the House of Internal Affairs sent him a big purple python robe with eight pythons and four claws, only one level worse than the prince.

The reason why this experienced eunuch was highly valued by the first emperor was not only his status as a veteran of the two dynasties, but also his other status—the No. 12 Haizhu of the Dark Guard.

The code name of the dark guard has never been divided by martial arts level.

The mission of the dark guard is dangerous, and people often die in battle. Once a position is vacant, their code name will be replaced by a new dark guard.

Since Taizu Wang Mu established the Dark Guard, in just 30 years, more than half of the twelve positions have been replaced. Extraordinary ability.

Zhou Xuantong, the first-class eunuch in the palace, has been a pig since the establishment of the secret guard, and he still is now, all relying on his boyhood skills that he has nurtured for nearly 60 years.

There were very few rumors about this eunuch who was extremely low-key in the palace, and even the extremely common manipulation of government affairs by eunuchs in power had never appeared.

In Zhou Xuantong's view, a slave is a slave, even if he has great power, it is given by his master, if he is arrogant because of his favor and looks at no one, then he is not far from death.The previous palm print eunuch did not understand this truth, so he sent himself to the guillotine.

It is precisely because of this awareness that Zhou Xuantong was able to step up to the current height step by step in Da Nei.

Even though he had served three monarchs, now that he was dressed in a python robe, Zhou Xuantong was still courteous and thoughtful, and he regarded the emperor's words as golden rules, and because of this, he had built up a lot of incense and affection with the royal family.

Even if one day someone intervened in his deceit, it must be that person who died.

……

Zhou Xuantong ran towards the north quickly without touching the ground. He only had a quarter of an hour, and he wanted to kill the rebellious minister Wang Bingde within this quarter of an hour.

Soon, a figure appeared in front of him.

The man was seven feet tall, powerful and powerful, holding a big black spear in his hand, he was Yuan Baihu, the North Turkistan General.

Yuan Baihu saw an old man with white hair and purple robe running towards this side, and after thinking about the words of the two hidden guards before, he immediately had the answer in his heart, and then he raised his big gun and pointed the tip of the gun at the person coming.

Zhou Xuantong didn't change his face, he didn't even look at the man who repelled the two hidden guards by himself.

Seeing that the other party did not intend to stop at all, Yuan Baihu grinned, spun the big gun around his waist in his hand, and gathered all his strength to shoot it out. If he got acquainted this time, even a black bear in the mountains would have to be shot away.

Yuan Baihu's real name is Yuan He. He was originally from the Central Plains. He hunted in the mountains and forests since he was a child. He fought black bears sixteen times and white tigers twenty times. Hence the title "Yuan Baihu".

Afterwards, he was favored by a spear master from Beitu, and he was accepted as an introductory disciple. Not only did he acquire a whole body of skills, but he also captured the heart of his junior junior sister. wife's dowry.

Cultivate one's morality, regulate one's family, govern the country and the world, Yuan Baihu skipped governing the country and directly chose to use force to calm the world.

Yuan Baihu joined the army and became a general all the way. In terms of military strength alone, he could only rank in the top ten in Beitu, but with an extra chiseled golden gun in his hand, he could rank in the top three.

……

Faced with the man's all-out blow, the giant eunuch Zhou Xuantong still did not slow down, but with a wave of his right hand, his sleeves bulged, and he slapped the black spear in front of him.

Yuan Baihu, a person who can fight black bears, was photographed aside with a gun.

Yuan Baihu was shocked, and stabbed out with the spear in his hand, intending to leave this old man who didn't look at him straight in the eye.

Zhou Xuantong let out a cold snort, his purple robe puffed up on his back, and his true energy was released, he squeezed the black spear to the limit, and he used the force of the spear to take advantage of the situation, without any intention of fighting.

Yuan Baihu stared at the distant figure of the other party, and stood there in a daze.

……

On a canal north of the capital city, a building boat was parked in the middle of the river, and a woman at the bow was looking anxiously to the south.

"General Zhao, do you have any news from the prince?" the woman asked softly.

The man behind said in a deep voice: "Miss Nie, the spies haven't come back yet."

After the man finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and continued: "Miss Nie, don't worry too much. Zhou Shensuan said that the prince is the destiny of the dragon to meet the water. As long as you come to the canal, you will have no worries about your life."

The woman frowned and said, "I'm afraid he won't be able to get here."

While the two were talking, a figure on the bank ran towards this side, and saw that the man shot a crossbow arrow towards this side, and the crossbow arrow was unbiased, just hitting the mast.

Zhao Hu pulled out the crossbow and unfolded the paper strip tied on it.

"Great, according to this, the prince is less than ten miles away."

Zhao Hu slapped the railing, this time he sent three spies, as long as he saw the prince, he would leave two of them to protect him secretly, and the other one would report back.

In this way, this matter is safe in all likelihood.

It was rare for the woman to let out a sad expression when she heard the words.

At this moment, a person came out from the cabin.

This person is wearing a purple Taoist robe, with white hair and a youthful face, which makes it impossible to see the exact age.

"Wen Daochang, the prince is already on his way, and he should be there in a while."

Zhao Hu respectfully said.

Right now, this ageless Taoist, with a whisk in his hand and a long beard over his chest, looks like a fairy. Compared with Zhou Jiuer's sloppy old Taoist, he is like a fairy descended from the world.

The old man called Daoist Wen didn't answer, he just looked up at the night sky, then lowered his head and closed his eyes to contemplate.

After a while, the old man stopped suddenly and took a step towards the south. With this step, he not only directly reached the shore, but also picked up a handful of river water in his hand.

Then the old man took another step toward the south, and this step seemed to have disappeared.

Zhao Hu stood on the building boat and stared dumbfounded at the scene in front of him. At first he looked down on this self-proclaimed old man, thinking that he was just a deceitful person who was definitely not as good as Zhou Jiuer in terms of real ability. There is no dregs left in seconds.

……

Ten miles to the south of the canal, the old eunuch Zhou Xuantong twisted the head of a spy, turned his head to look at Wang Bingde who was not far ahead, and said slowly:
"Your majesty's order, this servant, is here to take the head of the prince."

For the first time, Wang Bingde's expression turned solemn. This old monster was the last thing he wanted to face. Even if he had a powerful hidden weapon on his body, he still had no chance of winning in front of the opponent.

The most hateful thing is that this old eunuch is only loyal to the emperor, and he is not greedy for fame and wealth, which makes him unable to do anything.

Zhou Xuantong obviously didn't have that much patience, even if he drew his sword, he could only drag Old Man Ye for a quarter of an hour, and now more than half of the time has passed.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan jumped up, hooked his five fingers, and grabbed Wang Bingde's face directly.
