Chapter 405 Chapter 408
Hooves roared.

Shen Mu sighed inwardly, and stopped.

Da Dazhi and a dozen or so Turkic knights galloped to his side and reined in their horses and stopped, and said with a smile, "The genius doctor, please get on your horse."

Shen Mu said displeasedly: "I don't have time right now, so let's talk about something until tonight!"

Feeling worried, Dazhi looks like he can find him at any time, it must be because his people have been watching him secretly, and they have a special communication method in the city, that's why they are intercepted on the street like now .

Dazhi jumped off the horse, and said politely with a smile on his face: "Mr. Mo, don't misunderstand, but I just want to know where you found the holy relic. If you don't want to explain to Yan Shuai, we can find a place to talk. One buy and one sell is about fair trade, sir should clear up our doubts."

Of course, Shen Mu knew that it would be of no benefit to him to do it now, and it would also implicate Chang He and the Sha family, so he had no choice but to say: "Anyway, my brother is hungry, but brother, what suggestion do you have?"

Da Dazhi said: "The Fuju Building is open for business today, but a certain person specially reserved a table there, so that I can have a drink and talk with Mr. Sir, please!"

Shen Mu had the feeling of being escorted as a felon, so he had no choice but to get on the horse.

Shen Mu was looking out of the window, and suddenly saw Xu Ziling's Yong Qinzheng and a middle-aged Confucian scholar passing by in a boat, the shock in his heart was beyond any words to describe.

He intuitively felt that this person was Shi Zhixuan, but fortunately, Koda Zhi could not see the scene in Hanoi from where he was sitting.

The boat stopped under the bridge.

For fear of attracting attention, Dazhi's subordinates dispersed outside the door and did not follow to the second floor.

Upstairs was noisy, full of guests, one of the tables was Li Mi and Chao Gongcuo, just seeing that Li Mi was not invited to the spring hunting, one can imagine his status in the eyes of the Li clan.

Da Dazhi sent the assistant away, and said to Shen Mu: "About Ke Ke's previous question, what do you want to say, sir?"

Da Zhi made it clear that there was a disagreement, so he revealed his identity, lest he have the opportunity to escape from Chang'an.

Shen Mu smiled calmly, and said in a low voice: "Dare to ask, brother, if I really escaped from the swamp, can I sit here and drink and chat with you now? Eh! It's snowing heavily again!"

Dazhi looked out of the window, and saw snowflakes falling from the sky, and the snowfall was stronger than before.

Dazhi stared out of the window, and slowly said: "The heavy snow always reminds me of the wind and sand outside the Great Wall. There are not many things in the world that make my heart move; but I would kneel before a tornado, to break the sky above the sand plain. It is the first time I have revealed this to others, because you are not only qualified to be your opponent, but also a tough guy worthy of respect."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "It turns out that brother's drinking and talking is not just for fun, let me toast you a glass."

The two happily toasted and clinked, drank until there was not a drop of wine left, looked at each other with a smile, the atmosphere was harmonious on the surface, they drank at each other suddenly, with a heroic attitude, not only looked sideways from others, but also made Li Mi, Chao Gongcuo and others look at them.

Shen Mu temporarily got Dazhi's care, and he didn't take anyone's attention to heart.

Da Zhi moved a little closer, and said in a low voice, "I've been down there to see it. It seems like a miracle to escape from that swamp hole. If you didn't know this, does the young commander think that the younger brother still has the patience to drink and talk with you here?"

Shen Mu smiled and said: "You can be honest enough, so I'll make a long story short. I can guarantee with my personality that what I brought tonight is the authentic relic of the evil emperor. How can this kind of rare treasure be a common thing? It's just a joke to think it's just a joke. "

Da Zhi's eyes were sharp and intense, and he said in a deep voice, "How can I guarantee that you won't miss the appointment?"

Shen Mu proudly said: "The word "Shen Mu" is my guarantee, otherwise I will be inferior to pigs and dogs. But don't break your promise, if you refuse to save people, but also want to seize treasures, and even kill us, I will I will make you regret it very much."

A strong killing intent flashed across Dazhi's eyes, and he said with a sneer, "Since the relic is in your hands, the initiative is also in your hands. What else can we do? Don't worry, brother!"

Shen Mu pretended to be careless and cast his gaze under the Yuema Bridge. In the heavy snow, a small section of the stern of the boat was exposed from under the bridge.

Shen Mu lay on the tiled roof of a tall building in the distance, letting snowflakes cover him endlessly, the shock in his heart was indescribable.

He intended to see if Shi Zhixuan would follow Xu Ziling and deliberately delay entering Yunshuai's courtyard, but in less than a quarter of an hour, enemies appeared from all directions at the same time, with hundreds of people in ambush in the nearby courtyard. The streets and alleys besieged Yun Shuai's secret nest heavily.

Apart from Li Yuanji, Mei Xun, and Yu Wenbao, he also recognized Chao Gongcuo, Li Mi, Wang Bodang, and Jin Dachun, the leader of the "Longxi School".

He was right behind Li Mi, Wang Bodang and more than ten people, it was very difficult to break into the house and meet Xu Ziling, let alone open a gap for Xu Ziling.

But he didn't panic because of the disparity between the enemy and himself. His mind was as calm as water, and he slowly took off his robe and mask, and slowly drew out his long sword.

The snow fell heavier and denser.

The sky gradually darkened.

Shen Mu has no time to think about Yun Shuai whose life and death are uncertain, he only hopes that it is not Shi Zhixuan who is haunting Xu Ziling in the house, otherwise next year today will be the death anniversary of his two brothers.

Shen Mu went straight to Wayuan, swiped his long sword, and slashed the head of Li Yuanji's horse spear, and laughed loudly: "Please go back, King Qi!"

Li Yuanji was forced to fall down with a gun, but he was helpless.

Chao Gong came over by mistake.Fly over the two of them.

Xu Ziling and Shen Mu attacked at the same time, with both fists and a saber, even if it was Ning Daoqi who came, it would be difficult to please, let alone Chao Gongcuo, after fighting with Xu Ziling's fists, he would use his strength to fly away, otherwise Shen Mu's long There is a great chance that the sword will cut off his head.

The two shoulders collided violently, using their strength to take off, flew over the heads of the crowd, and fled in opposite directions.

This move was beyond everyone's expectations, and he didn't know who to chase for a while.

Li Yuanji shouted loudly: "Chase!"

Take the lead to chase after Shen Mu.

Only then did Yang Xuyan arrive, unfolding his phantom demon body technique, he suddenly rushed to a place about two zhang behind Xu Ziling.

The situation is chaotic.

After a while, Xu Ziling and Shen Mu circled half a circle respectively, and unexpectedly walked together again, with Yuema Bridge in front of them.

The closest of the two chasing was Yang Xuyan, followed by Chao Gongcuo, Li Yuanji, Li Mi and Mei Xun.

It was completely dark at this time, but Yang Xuyan and other pursuers were sure that they could catch up with the two in a short time, and they were not allowed to escape.

The enemy was getting closer and closer, the two yelled at the same time, jumped from the tile roof to the ground, their shoulders touched again, the speed increased sharply, they got up and threw themselves into the water of Yong'an Canal.

With two "gudong" sounds, they all sank into the dark river.

After the exit of the secret passage was closed, the two left the chute immersed in the canal water and sat down next to the wall.

Shen Mu supported his right hand with his bent knee, and gasped, "Tonight is terrible, and I even boasted to that kid Dazhi that if you don't go to the appointment tonight, you will be worse than a pig or a dog. Sigh! To be a pig Being a dog is still a trivial matter, I hope that Old Brother Yun is a lucky man, and that he can escape successfully! Alright, let's go."

Compared with the previous two nights of the New Year's Eve, Chang'an City is full of excitement tonight.

The sluices leaving the city at both ends of the Yong’an Canal were lowered, and the lights along the bank were so bright that the fish swimming in the canal were clearly visible. The snowflakes falling from the sky reflected the light of torches and wind lanterns. The scale is far beyond the comparison of fireworks that disappear in an instant.

Both sides of the strait are full of Li Yuanji's subordinates and Chang Lin's army. Li Jiancheng was also alarmed to personally preside over the Souhe operation. Dazhi, who is the most unwilling to participate, has no choice but to accompany Li Jiancheng. Trapped in Hanoi, it is impossible to keep the promise.

The Changlin Army, which was replaced by the water, searched underwater section by section of the river, and all the ships moored on the shore were driven away, and no one was spared.

Since Li Yuanji was sure that the two of them had not left Yong'an Canal, the search was done cautiously and patiently, and the surrounding streets and alleys were blocked, and the high places were full of archers.

The attention of the Tang army in the city was concentrated on this large canal that runs through the north and the south. Instead, it was easier for Shen Mu and Xu Ziling to sneak out of the city through the secret path and then sneak back into the city.

Without anyone noticing, they came to the roof of a mansion of an unknown dignitary near the backyard of the foreign hotel, spying on the situation around the foreign hotel from a distance.

Shen Mu put the copper pot containing the evil emperor's relics on the back of the house, and said in a low voice: "This thing is really evil, and it makes my heart jump from time to time."

Xu Ziling was staring into the distance, and said: "If my prediction is correct, I wish the witch and the witch should hide somewhere, and try to stop us before we enter the foreign hotel."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "They might think that the relic is not in our hands, or that we are still trapped under the river. Even if there are no such misjudgments above, at least they believe that we will carry Brother Lei here so hard that even Calculations and deployment errors."

Xu Ziling smiled and said: "Our treasure hunt this time is a coincidence to take advantage of everything, let's go!"

The two jumped up and shot towards the long street like shooting stars. After a few ups and downs, they came to the outside of the backyard wall of the hotel. One turned over and landed safely in the courtyard without stopping.

Zhao Deyan let out a long laugh, appeared on the steps outside the door of the small building, and said salutingly, "You two are indeed believers. Mr. Zhao admires him so much, but I don't know where Mr. Lei is?"

Shen Mu put the copper pot in front of his feet, hugged his hands, and said leisurely: "I'll talk about this matter later, can the national teacher please come out and see the expert who can relieve the poisonous punishment of 'seven needles restraining the gods', so as to calm our hearts ?”

There is no light in the entire hotel, and the constant snowflakes are falling, which adds to the feeling of desolation, cold and danger.

Zhao Deyan looked Xu Ziling up and down, and said calmly, "There is no problem with this, as long as the authenticity of the relic is verified, I will invite the person out for the two of you to have a look at."

Kang Jiaoli's voice came from behind and said, "The holy relic must be fake, otherwise there is no need to cover it with a copper pot, and I won't bring Lei Jiuzhi."

Shen Mu didn't turn his head back, he laughed and said, "Whether it's true or not, you can prove it immediately. The problem is that you have no sincerity at all, otherwise why would you just make excuses when you invite people out to meet?"

Zhao Deyan sneered dumbly and said: "When I, Zhao Deyan, ruled the world, you hadn't been reincarnated yet, and now you dare to lie to me. I'm going to teach you whether you can come or not."

Before the conversation was finished, more than a dozen Turkic masters poured out from the rear and the small building, besieging the two of them heavily.

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling were still calm and composed, and had no intention of running away at all, which made Zhao Deyan very puzzled, and faintly felt that it was the other party who had the upper hand.

Zhao Deyan said proudly: "In order to avoid other people's gossip, Mr. Zhao can give you a chance to fight a fair duel, and no one else is allowed to interfere. Whoever of you will accompany me, Zhao Deyan, will play first."

Shen Mu and Xu Ziling screamed fiercely, Zhao Deyan's move can be said to be both stupid and smart, it not only shows the confidence and tolerance to win against any of them, the biggest effect is to prevent the two from breaking out and escaping.Escaping is exactly what the two of them do.

Shen Mu laughed dumbly and said, "We didn't come today to decide whether to win or lose with Yan Shuai, old man. Don't you even have the time and patience to distinguish the authenticity of relics?"

Kang Jiaoli laughed from behind and said, "After you've been dealt with, even if the copper pots are melted and cast into copper balls, there will be a long time to come, why bother to distinguish the authenticity of the relics, what the young commander said is really funny."

Shen Mu sighed: "Brother Kang seems to have forgotten that I know a little bit of kung fu, as long as I lift my foot and kick it, it is guaranteed to shake the relics in the jar to pieces, if you don't believe me, just do it!"

Xu Ziling smiled and said: "I said earlier that they would not have the sincerity of the transaction, but you don't believe it. Come on! Let's get rid of the relic first, and then try to see if we can break out."

Zhao Deyan raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute! Assuming you can prove that the jar is really a holy relic, and everything is still carried out according to the original agreement, Zhao will never break his promise."

Shen Mu said, "This is easy."

Xu Ziling lifted the copper can from the ground with one hand, Shen Mu grasped the lid tightly with both hands, and with a twist of force, there was a "click" sound, and the lid was unlocked.

In fact, Shen Mu and Xu Ziling also became nervous, because they had never dared to open the lid to inspect the goods, and they hadn't figured out the mystery inside the jar.

As expected of an old fox, Zhao Deyan paid attention not to the copper pot, but to the expressions of the two of them.

A group of Turkic masters raised their vigilance to the highest level and stood ready.

The courtyard was silent, only the snowflakes kept falling, and the sound of people's voices and water coming from the Yong'an Canal.

Shen Mu showed a bright smile, picked up the whole lid, and the two of them looked into the jar together, both showing stunned expressions, and then you looked at me.

Zhao Deyan showed a warm smile, which seemed to be a little mocking, Shen Mu and Xu Ziling exchanged glances, feeling that something was wrong, but they didn't know where the problem was.

Completely beyond the two's expectations, Zhao Deyan shouted: "Do it!"

Two black steel chains, as thick as little fingers, came out from Zhao Deyan's left and right sleeves like poisonous snakes. The ends of the chains were diamond-shaped sharp cones, and they stabbed at the two of them as quickly as a shooting star, extremely sinister and vicious.

This pair of strange weapons was well-known in both the Demon Gate and the two realms. It was named "Variable Ling Spear". The sharp weapon of the Fear God Soldier is also the nemesis of the sword. If you wrap it around him in a special way, it is almost impossible to escape the fate of being snatched away.

The most powerful thing about Zhao Deyan is that he made a move when the two never expected him to make a move, taking advantage of the initiative.

Seeing that the Ling gun shot towards the two people's faces, and the surrounding Turks and Kang Jiaoli swarmed up, looking like they were going to tear them apart, Shen Mu didn't even think about it. With a wave, the steel cover spun violently, and cut Zhao Deyan's throat with his hand.

"Chong"!
The long sword was unsheathed.

Zhao Deyan put his hands together, crossed his spears, and just blocked the lid.

Xu Ziling shouted, "Look at me!"

With a shake of both hands, thousands of silver points gushed out of the pot and splashed over more than 30 enemies attacking from all around.

Kang Jiaoli and the others didn't expect Xu Ziling's move, and they didn't know what the silver point was, so they retreated one after another, farther than where they were standing just now.

Shen Mu was really fired up, and was about to rush over with a knife to meet Zhao Deyan. Zhao Deyan looked at the silver dots on the ground, which were still in the shape of semi-liquid raindrops, rolling around on the snow-covered ground, and shouted: "Stop!" .”

The Ling gun was recovered into the sleeve.

Standing beside Xu Ziling with a horizontal sword, Shen Mu looked like a god, and said angrily: "Stop your mother's hand, not only will you not get the relic of the evil emperor tonight, but I will also take your dog's life, and teach you that you will never return to Turkic status." What is the national teacher of Lao Shizi?"

Xu Ziling stood with the pot in his right hand, with a calm demeanor, he didn't care about the powerful enemies surrounding him.

Hearing Shen Mu's scolding to him, Zhao Deyan showed a vicious look in his eyes, nodded and said: "I will remember your every word, but if you still want to undo the 'seven needles restraining the gods' in Lei Jiufinger , you have to listen to what Zhao said."

Shen Mu looked up to the sky and said with a smile, "What else is there to say, you made it clear that you didn't keep your promise, you want our lives, and you want to snatch the relics away."

Zhao Deyan nodded and said: "This is just a misunderstanding, because someone Zhao thought that the two of you were cheating with fake products, and that's why you took the offense just now."

Shen Mu frowned and said, "Then why did it suddenly become a misunderstanding?"

Zhao Deyan pointed to the silver beads on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Because the jar is filled with mercury, only mercury can cover up the holy light of the holy relic and its aura. From this point of view, what is immersed in the mercury liquid in the jar should be Undoubtedly the holy relic. It is really unexpected, where did you find it?"

The two looked into the tank at the same time, and what they saw was still mercury, without lights or fire, and it was pitch black.

Shen Mu said: "Stop talking nonsense, now that you know that the holy relic is in our hands, let's talk about a deal."

Kang Jiaoli yelled from behind: "Didn't the deal be negotiated earlier? You give us the relic, and we will remove the death penalty for Lei Jiuzhi."

Shen Mu smiled triumphantly: "Your 'seven-needle confinement' is just a trick to deceive a three-year-old child. I can just find someone on the street to solve it. If I say it's another deal, don't promise me Destroy the relic immediately, and then divide life and death."

Zhao Deyan was slightly taken aback, frowned and said: "Young Marshal has any new proposals, just tell them, and someone Zhao will listen attentively."

Shen Mu said in a deep voice: "It's very simple, you immediately hand over that little thief from Xiangyu Mountain, and this relic is yours."

Zhao Deyan was stunned for a moment, then laughed happily and said, "I thought it was something, why didn't the young commander tell you earlier, it's settled, please ask the young commander to take out the holy relic and show it to prove that there is really something in the mercury. Holy Relic, we will hand over the person immediately."

Then he shouted loudly and said, "Yushan, get out of here."
