Knife splashing

Chapter 134 Snowy Night Daming Ruins

The candlelight is lit, flickering dimly.

Feng Feiyan slowly undressed, the captain's black robe fell off, and the lining inside was also taken off, revealing her smooth back...

She frowned and looked a little absent-minded.

Her task during this period was to collect information about the tomb robbers in ancient Zhou. After all, they used explosives, and in large quantities.

It is not important to arrest people; the key is to find out the source of the explosives.

Tonight, the Duwei Division sent a secret letter notification and an urgent summons. I thought it was to inquire about this matter, but it turned out to be an internal fight.

The Chang'an Duweisi Guard, like other guards in Daxuan, had three thousand-householders, each of whom had ten hundred-householders under him.

But the three thousand households have different statuses.

One of them holds the seal as the main one, and the remaining two are deputies.

She was originally under the management of Deputy Captain Yu Chen. Since entering Chang'an, it was also his planning that allowed her to reach where she is today.

As for the enemies who persecuted the family, they were naturally killed.

Everything was originally calm and she thought it would continue like this until shocking news came that Yu Chen had colluded with Maitreya Sect and leaked information about new firearms.

Captain Chang Xuan hid his talents and rushed back overnight. He used the relationships he had secretly built up over the years to directly capture Yu Chen and replace him.

She was not Yu Chen's confidant, so she escaped the disaster.

I thought it was over, but I didn't expect that it had just begun.

Chang Xuan was appreciated for solving a firearm theft case, and he got in touch with some high-ranking official. He became very famous for a while and even threatened the position of Guo Yuhuai, the seal holder of a thousand households.

Today, they were openly asked to gather these secret agents and inquire about the intelligence of Chang'an, but in fact it was a power grab. The two sides were almost at odds.

People say that the world is dangerous, but the officialdom is just as dangerous.

How to go down this path still needs careful consideration...

Suddenly, Feng Feiyan realized something was wrong.

It seemed as if someone was looking at him!

She turned around suddenly, with two throwing knives in her hands.

However, there was nothing unusual in the room.

Feng Feiyan listened carefully for a long time before she breathed a sigh of relief. With a bitter look on her face, she murmured, "It's really a guilty conscience that gives rise to evil thoughts..."

As he spoke, he hid all of Duwei Si's clothes in the secret compartment under the bed, changed into a light gauze undergarment, and fell into a deep sleep.

On the beam, the paper figurine has turned to ashes...

…………

In the room, Li Yan withdrew his magic.

“The boss lady has a nice figure…”

He smiled silently and became less guarded against it.

In fact, he was most afraid that the other party was from the Maitreya Sect or some evil organization. If they arranged some kind of situation, everyone would be in crisis.

Once you know the root cause, everything will be easy.

From now on, you will know what to do and what not to do.

Thinking of this, Li Yan tidied up the things on the table, then lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, he began to draw the armor horse again.

The reason why "The Divine Speed ​​of the Northern Emperor" is called the Divine Speed ​​of the Northern Emperor, and not the Armor and Horse Skill, is because the Armor and Horse Skill are only auxiliary.

There are two points that are truly ingenious about this method.

First, the armor and horse are extraordinary.

For example, the armor horse used by Red Yaksha can only rely on the power of the armor horse, while the armor horse of the Northern Emperor can rely on its own power at the same time.

For example, when his hidden energy explodes, he can jump seven or eight meters. With the help of his armored horse, it is not difficult for him to achieve the legendary flying on the grass and climbing walls.

The second is a way to overcome danger.

The art of magic travel also records many principles of Qimen Dunjia, such as how to deal with some naturally formed dangerous areas in order to pass through them faster.

And this is the foundation of the art of escape.

Learning Qi Men Dun Jia is not a short-term matter. It requires reading a lot of books. If you lack understanding, you can't even get into it.

But to learn how to make a practical magical tool like a armor horse, one must first learn how to make it.

Li Yan went out and practiced boxing and kicking in the yard for an hour. He ate something casually and then stayed in the house to learn how to draw armor and horses.

This thing is a little more difficult.

It took two days to successfully make one.

Seeing that the battle was approaching, Li Yan did not continue, but made hundreds of Chu Ling paper figures, and specially made a leather bag to hold them and hung it around his waist.

A set of armor and horse is enough for fighting...

…………

As night fell, a snowstorm suddenly hit the sky.

"Everyone, it's time."

Feng Feiyan also changed her clothes today, wearing a green military uniform, two mandarin duck swords on her waist, and a white fox fur cloak. She looked neat and exquisite in the wind and snow.

The Red Yaksha was still the same, with bamboo armor and two swords, but there were a few more leather bags hanging around his waist, and it was obvious that he had been preparing for a fight these days.

As for Li Yan and the other two, they had naturally been dealt with long ago.

Fenglai Inn was still open for business. A few people left through the side door. There were already several carriages waiting there, with red pennants hanging and the word "Sheng" embroidered on them.

Li Yan knew the origins of these people at a glance.

There were two major carriage companies in Chang'an City, "Taixing" and "Changsheng". Both sides divided their territories. Taixing Carriage and Horse Company controlled the route to the north, while Changsheng controlled the route to the south.

The two sides are both rivals and also cooperate with each other to exclude outsiders.

Feng Feiyan's Fenglai Inn is a well-known underworld inn, and has connections with the carriage and horse companies, foot companies, pawnbrokers, and even the Cao Gang.

Naturally, there were many people who helped this time.

The driver was a young man wearing a sheepskin coat, a dog-skin hat, and a whip on his waist.

"Boss Feng, all the heroes."

He smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "The president said that he has other important matters and cannot come, but he must let the Fire Bear Gang know that they cannot afford to offend people like us from the Five Elements."

"The road leading to Daming Palace is clear tonight!"

"Thank you!"

Feng Feiyan didn't waste any words. After bowing, she and Li Yan and others got into several carriages.

"Pull the wheel, rain or shine!"

Snapped!
The young coachman shouted loudly, took off the whip and swung it violently. The sound of the whip echoed throughout the street, and several carriages rushed into the wind and snow.

As it is said, the road leading to the Daming Palace is smooth.

The carriage moved forward rapidly in the wind and snow. There was no obstacle along the way. No night watchmen or patrolling soldiers were seen.

This is the ability of the carriage and horse business.

Don't underestimate this road leading to the fighting ground.

There are some unruly people in the underworld who openly say they want to negotiate or challenge others to a fight, but in fact they ambush people on the road and harm them.

Although it seemed that only a few carriages came from the carriage and horse company, in fact many of their men had already explored the route and even bribed the night watchmen and patrol soldiers to avoid their route.

If anyone intercepts him, he will be killed.

No one knows better than them what kind of people the Chang'an Fire Bear Gang is.

He must have the strength, otherwise he wouldn't be able to gain a foothold in Chang'an City, where all kinds of people gather.

The Fire Bear Gang was very generous, and many of the best fighters and evil sorcerers in the green forest were bribed and driven by them. Moreover, there was the shadow of a certain adult from the Commandery Headquarters vaguely behind them.

But what these guys did was really despicable.

Sure enough, in the dark alley where the carriage was about to pass, a group of people appeared in the shadows, pulling a dung cart with a mule. "Remember, listen to my orders later."

"Brother, what a good plan! Let's get covered in shit and see how embarrassed they will be later..."

Before he could finish his words, a group of skilled fighters from the carriage and horse business rushed out, wielding whips and beating the group of people until they screamed in pain.

The commander covered his nose with his head and cursed: "What a bunch of rotten cowards, collecting debts and throwing shit at people, cheating people and throwing shit at people, do you like it so much?"

"Brothers, serve them food!"

"You can't leave until you finish eating!"

As they were talking, the carriage had already passed through the street.

"It's quite lively tonight..."

Inside the car, Li Yan covered his nose and shook his head slightly.

The carriage arranged by Changsheng Coach Company was not small. He, Wang Daoxuan and Sha Lifei sat in one, and Feng Feiyan and Hong Yasha sat in another.

When Sharifei heard what he said, he vaguely guessed something and said happily, "If nothing else, this Boss Feng is quite prestigious."

Li Yan's heart moved and he made a few gestures.

This is the underworld sign language. Sometimes when it is inconvenient to speak, people will use it to express themselves. It basically covers many of the secret codes of Chundian.

Li Yan means: hawk dog, dark spot, beware.

Sha Lifei and Wang Daoxuan suddenly understood.

The three of them already had a tacit understanding, and they all knew what to say and what not to say in front of Shopkeeper Feng from now on.

The darker the night, the stronger the snowstorm.

The streets were already a little slippery, but the drivers were obviously experts and drove very fast, not afraid of overturning at all.

After a while, everyone arrived at the Anfu Gate of the former imperial city.

Because the Taiji Palace and Daming Palace have been abandoned, this place has been renovated and has become one of the exits of Chang'an City.

Although it is a small gate and is sparsely populated on weekdays, there are soldiers guarding the city and it is closed at night.

But now, the city gates are open.

The carriages whizzed past, but the guards guarding the city ignored them. Only after the team passed did they yawn and close the door again.

Seeing this, Li Yan shook his head slightly.

The Daxuan Dynasty had been founded for a hundred years and its national strength was growing. However, the most recent large-scale war was the rebellion in the northern border.

In inland areas, military equipment is inevitably somewhat slack.

In the past, cases like this would result in beheading.

And looking at it now, I guess he has done a lot.

Of course, this thought was just a fleeting thought.

After leaving the city gate, the carriage continued to move forward along the Taiji Palace ruins in the snow. After about an incense stick of time, it arrived at the Daming Palace ruins.

The ruins of Daming Palace appear even more desolate in the wind and snow.

Only ruins remained of those magnificent palaces. Occasionally, wild foxes and wolverines would wander in the snow or stand on the ruins, watching these uninvited guests from afar.

Li Yan had been using his magical powers and soon smelled a lot of human scent and the smell of burning wood.

Sure enough, there was a faint fire ahead and the carriage stopped.

Several people jumped out of the carriage and saw a blazing bonfire and several tents set up in the ruins ahead.

There are many gang members outside, holding torches and sharp blades for defense.

There were a few people sitting by the fire chatting inside. When they saw the carriage arriving, they all stood up and walked over.

"Hahaha…"

Before the people arrived, hearty laughter had already sounded, "Boss Feng, you are not in a hurry at all, it seems that you are sure to win!"

The speaker was an old man with a white beard.

He was unusually tall, with a charred face, curly white beard, a lion's nose and a wide mouth. As he walked with big strides, he seemed to have the aura of a ferocious beast.

There were two people following him.

A middle-aged man wearing a sheepskin coat, with a cold look in his eyes, a meteor cone hanging around his waist, and a bamboo basket on his back, with something alive jumping inside it...

A young man in a blue shirt, with a fair face and a scholarly air, but wearing white gloves and holding an iron fan.

"Boss Tie is joking."

Feng Feiyan covered her mouth and laughed, "I am a woman in this family. I just can't stand the Fire Bear Gang using their power to bully others. The ones who really took action were these gentlemen."

"Ms. Red Yaksha Luo, you are all familiar with her. This is Sharifei, this is Taoist Wang Daoxuan, and this is..."

"Well, I know."

The white-bearded old man laughed heartily, "I have long disliked that old bastard Zhou Pan, and he even wanted to plot against the Chang'an Divine Fist Association. I wanted to teach him a lesson, but little brother Li got there first."

"That old fellow Zhang Yuanshang has a very close relationship with me. He mentioned you before, so I will naturally take care of you now that you are here."

"That's family then."

Feng Feiyan smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. This is Tie Shigu, the president of the Foot Shop, this is Mr. Lu, the attendant of the Changsheng Car Shop, and this is Master Bai of the Tooth Shop."

"I've met all the seniors."

Li Yan bowed respectfully, "I have just arrived in Chang'an, so it is inevitable that I am a little unfamiliar with the place. I would like to thank you all for coming to help me."

The Lu Gongfeng of Changsheng Car Dealership said calmly, "We are only here to hold the fort in case the Fire Bear Gang breaks the rules or regrets it later and bullies others by relying on their numbers."

"Whether you win or lose in a fight depends on your abilities."

This was a bit impolite. Judging from his expression, he was not very willing to come here, and he was not optimistic about them.

After hearing this, Tie Shigu looked a little surprised, "Master Lu, this is not only a matter for Xuanmen, but also a matter for Chang'an Five Elements. Since President Wang has agreed, don't spoil the fun."

Mr. Lu from Changsheng Car Dealership nodded slightly, but did not agree. However, he did not say anything else to spoil the mood.

Li Yan naturally didn't care.

He had just arrived, and although he had some fame in Xianyang, he had no connections with the Xuanmen in Chang'an, so it was normal that he was not favored.

Seeing this, the scholar Bai Tangzhu from the dental shop next to him smiled and changed the subject, "Everyone, Lord Lu also has good intentions. The Fire Bear Gang and Liu Wenchen kept it a secret, and we still don't know who they invited."

"This time, I'm afraid the person who came here has bad intentions..."

Upon hearing this, Tie Shigu also became serious and nodded, saying, "The Fire Bear Gang originally had a bad relationship with our Five Elements. I heard that after the Five Elements came to suppress them, they also made continuous moves."

"This time, he probably wants to embarrass us."

call out!
As he was speaking, a flare suddenly rose from the opposite side.

Li Yan turned his head and saw a faint fire in the wind and snow a few hundred meters away. It was obviously the enemy's camp.

And between the two sides, there was a palace foundation with a large area and many broken walls covered with snow, which looked like a maze.

Hearing the sound of the arrow, Tie Shigu sneered and said, "It seems that the guy surnamed Xiong can't wait any longer. Let's go meet him!"

After saying that, he led everyone towards the palace foundation.

At the same time, a fire dragon came out of the wind and snow on the opposite side.

There is a large open space next to the palace foundation.

The two sides met each other not long after they started walking. They were dozens of meters apart and stopped at the same time and confronted each other.

Li Yan looked up and saw that the leader on the opposite side was a tall and strong bearded man with a face full of flesh. He was wearing a black fur coat and a huge jade Bagua plate around his neck.

It looks like a big black bear.

Li Yan's attention was attracted by the jade Bagua plate.

This thing has a strong and evil aura flowing through it, forming its own situation. It is actually a protective charm, and it gives him the feeling that it is much stronger than his own Hundred Battles Card.

I’m afraid that ordinary evil spirits can’t even get close to me.

This Fire Bear Gang leader looks quite rich...
