Chapter VI Hostage Exchange

Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong crouched on the tiles of the double building and listened carefully to make sure that no one was in the building. Then they looked towards the building about thirty feet away from the ridge of the roof. The only thing in between was a pool, a stream and a tree that spanned it. Beyond the bridge is the ground made of bluestone bricks.

Octagonal palace lanterns are hung every ten steps on the half-corridor surrounding the main inner hall, giving the outer wall of the inner hall a translucent illusion. Worst of all, there is a lantern tower at each of the four outer corners and the lights of the half-corridor reflect each other.

After calculation, Kou Zhong said: We have to jump at least ten feet away from this building to prevent the lamp tower from casting our shadow on the wall. Are you still so sure?

Xu Ziling hadn't answered yet, but the sound of someone else's footsteps came.

The two of them hurriedly knelt down and followed the sound.

I saw a group of people walking along the corridor on the other side towards the main inner hall. The leaders were Rong Fengxiang and Lang Feng. The others were all well-known figures in Luoyang who had met at the birthday banquet.

The two were greatly disappointed and wondered whether it was Lang Feng who was being carried by the carriage. Although he usually rode a horse, it was reasonable to take a carriage to avoid being noticed.

They watched helplessly as the other party filed into the main inner hall, feeling dejected.

Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and said: What should we do? I'm afraid arresting Lang Feng will have no effect. I know Wang Shichong best.

Xu Ziling said in a deep voice: Do you still want to listen to them?

Kou Zhong sighed: What's there to say? It's just that the officials and businessmen are colluding, and the only people who will suffer when the profits are divided are the common people. Eh!

Laughter floated from behind.

The two looked away and looked at another group of people who were slowly walking along the gravel path through the courtyard to the high building where they were hiding, led by four warriors holding lanterns.

The most eye-catching one was of course the gorgeous Rong Jiaojiao, but the one that attracted all their attention and made the two of them overjoyed was Wang Xuanying who was accompanying her affectionately.

That is the best choice that is countless times better than Dong Shuni.

The few warriors who came with the carriage looked relaxed and relaxed. It was obvious that no one expected that there would be enemies waiting for them in Rong Mansion.

The two exchanged glances and knew what to do without saying a word. They both pulled off their masks to reveal their true faces.

The prey keeps getting closer.

Just listen to Wang Xuan's response: Li Mi's people are now surrendering to the emperor one after another, making him even more powerful. As long as we capture Heyang again, Li Mi will not even have a place to escape!

The two of them silently worked hard and gathered momentum.

Since Wang Shichong used these warriors to protect his precious son, why should he hesitate twice? If he misses, it will be much more troublesome.

Kou Zhong made a gesture, indicating that he would capture Wang Xuanying and Xu Ziling alive and deal with the others.

Rong Jiaojiao below responded with a sweet voice: "This time you defeated Li Mi greatly and shattered his myth of invincibility. Jiaojiao has shocked the world. I don't know how happy I am for you!"

Wang Xuanying laughed happily and said: This is all due to the father's strategy of deceiving the enemy and luring him!

Kou Zhong heard Wuming get angry. At this time, Wang Xuanying had arrived about four feet outside the main entrance of the Chonglou. It was the most conducive position for them to attack. The movements of his clothes are like those vicious fish attacking for prey in the deep sea, silently diving towards the target.

Xu Ziling moved at the same time and jumped into the air three consecutive somersaults, chasing after Kou Zhong and rushing towards the enemy.

When Kou Zhong flew to a height of about two feet diagonally above Wang Xuanying, to their surprise, the person who alerted them was not Wang Xuanying or any of the escort masters, but Rong Jiaojiao.

She tilted up her pretty face and looked at Kou Zhong. A pair of beautiful eyes lit up with strange light. At the same time, she flashed a sword light in her hands and faced Kou Zhongyue in the well. She reacted quickly and her sword moves were fierce and experienced, even Kou Zhong was at a loss for what he was capable of. Give her a situation that disrupts the entire plan.

Only then did Wang Xuanying and a group of master guards realize that an assassin had descended from the sky, and they were two of the top masters of the new generation. They were so frightened that they hurriedly pulled out their weapons and screamed in warning to summon the masters from Rong Mansion for help.

Facing Rong Jiaojiao's dazzling sword energy, Kou Zhong was so painful that he wanted to commit suicide.

You must know that the opportunity to capture Wang Xuanying is fleeting. As long as Rong Jiaojiao intercepts him, even if it is just a blink of an eye, the whole situation will be reversed and become an ending where they have to escape in a hurry, and they will still regret it here and now.

Don't provoke masters like Yang Xuyan. As long as Rong Fengxiang and Lang Feng from the inner hall rush over, they won't be able to please them.

However, Rong Jiaojiao's astonishing accuracy, time and speed in volleying in mid-air taught him that he had no way to change his moves and could only fight his way out, but this was an unchangeable fact.

Wang Xuanying had already started to move sideways to avoid the surrounding guards, but the masters closed in on him. For a moment, swords and swords flashed and screams of death filled their ears.

Seeing that his success was in vain, Xu Ziling then reached over Kou Zhong's head and feet and pressed down his palms to attack Rong Jiaojiao's sword net.

When he passed by Kou Zhong, he pushed Kou Zhong with his backhand.

Kou Zhong had already made it difficult for the old man to change his momentum. At this time, he had to use Xu Ziling to somersault one by one and hit Wang Xuanying, who was trying to escape, with the moon shining over his head and face.

The fierce spiral sword force completely enveloped Wang Xuanying, forcing him to stand on the spot and swing his sword to block.

Peng!

Rong Jiaojiao let out a tender cry and was struck by Xu Ziling's left and right palms. The fierce spiral force on the sword body was first a left twist, and then a right twist, which shocked her meridians and caused her to fly away in shock, missing the opportunity to rescue Wang Xuanying.

Xu Ziling was also surprised.

Anyone who first encounters Spiral Jin, a force that has never appeared in ancient and modern times, will suffer a loss.

What's more, he used the sequence of his left and right hands to cleverly reverse the zhenqi. It was estimated that she would have to drop the weapon no matter what, but he didn't know that not only did she not do what he expected, but she could also use her strength to dodge. This shows how brilliant her martial arts is.

Like daughter, like father. Looking at Rong Fengxiang from this perspective, it is really not simple.

Benedict!

Wang Xuanying struck Jing Zhongyue with all his strength, but there was no clear sound of metal clashing. Instead, it was as if he was defeated and had no strength at all.

Wang Xuanying was immediately stunned. Kou Zhong's sword looked very powerful when viewed horizontally and vertically, but it turned out to be nothing more than what it looked like, and he struck it with no force at all.

The feeling of using the wrong strength is as uncomfortable as trying your best to lift something as light as a feather.

Wang Xuanying grunted miserably and was about to vomit blood because of his luck.

Kou Zhong laughed and said: Brother Xuanying fell into the trap!

Jing Zhongyue immediately changed from weak to strong and struck hard on the sword that Wang Xuanying recovered.

Wang Xuanying finally spit out blood and the long sword flew away with his hand and fell to the ground with a thud.

Kou Zhong pressed his hand on Wang Xuan Ying Tian's spiritual cap and shouted: "Everyone, get out of here!"

The guards stopped in shock.

Xu Ziling fell next to Kou Zhong.

Kou Zhong heard the sudden sound of wind blowing from the direction of the inner hall and knew that Rong Fengxiang and others were rushing to pick up Wang Xuanying and Xu Ziling who had their acupuncture points sealed. They stood up and shouted: At three o'clock tonight, tell Wang Shichong to take Xu Xingzhi to Tianjin. Come and replace me! Whoever dares to chase me will kill his precious son. Ha!

Amidst the laughter, Kou Zhong took Wang Xuanying and Xu Ziling away quickly.

***

On the bell tower.

Kou Zhong patted Wang Xuanying's acupoint and said with a smile: How are you, Mr. Xuanying?

Wang Xuanying took a long time to come back to his senses and said fiercely: What do you want?

Kou Zhong said calmly: If you don't want to suffer, you'd better ask questions and answer questions. Alas! I am the most suspicious person. If you are hesitant in your words, I will treat you as nonsense.

The abdomen is gray and gray - staring at the fresh air. After lying to the man once, he can only touch a woman with his toes! As for after twenty times, he can't even touch his toes.

Wang Xuan responded and said: How could you do this? Dad will never let you go.

This kind of lustful nonsense fully demonstrated his cowardly character. Even Xu Ziling, who was sitting on the other side of the wall, looked disdainful and scolded him for being such a coward.

Kou Zhong said in surprise: Who is your father? If I were afraid of him, you wouldn't have to sit here with a pale face and let yourself suffer.

Don't talk nonsense. Remember to answer all questions. If you are slow to answer, you will regret it for the rest of your life. Have you ever heard that I was like your father and broke my words? Wang Xuanying said dejectedly: Just kill me!

Kou Zhong pulled out the tip of his dagger and put it against his chin at an angle and said: "Can you go one more time?"

Wang Xuanying trembled for a while and finally surrendered and said hurriedly: Ask!

Xu Ziling didn't want to look anymore and moved to the other side of the bell tower.

The stars and moon in the sky are shining brightly, and the night wind is blowing slowly.

Luoyang is still peaceful, most people have gone to bed and there are only sparse lights left.

After a while, Kou Zhong came to him and imitated him, sitting close to the wall and saying fiercely: "Both father and son are nothing. Only Wang Xuangan looks like a human being."

Xu Ziling said: Do you want to know about Mr. Xu?

Kou Zhongtou said: "It is true that his father was locked up. Li Zi guessed that we would return to Luoyang just for Xu Xing, so he could estimate his importance to us. Xu Xing's mistake was that he had shown his talents before, but we were wrong because we could not guess."

Wang Shichong took action so quickly.

Xu Ziling said: What else can you ask?

Kou Zhongdao: Yi Lao has indeed returned to the south after his success, and Chen Changlin transferred him to Jinyong City. He really wants to kill this guy with one knife.

Xu Ziling muttered: I will contact them later. Even if they want to play tricks, I'm not afraid.

Kou Zhong knew that he was afraid that his old injury would relapse and said with a smile: How can that happen? If Li Zi and Wang Shichong take you down and force me to replace you, shouldn't I just submit? As long as Wang Xuanying is in hand, I won't be afraid that Wang Shichong won't give in. Let's go together.

!

I really want to see Wang Shichong's expression at this time.

Xu Ziling had no choice but to agree.

***

The two got on the stolen boat and sailed towards Tianjin Bridge with Wang Xuanying.

Wang Xuanying lay flat on the bottom of the boat and lost consciousness.

Xu Ziling sat at the stern of the boat and paddled the river with one hand, gently responding to the rustling sound.

There were dark lights on both sides of the river. The river embankment, which was usually filled with large boats, was missing half of the boats. However, the Tianjin Bridge was brightly lit with people.

Kou Zhong said in a low voice: We must take advantage when we are in power. Alas! We are not used to being thieves. Otherwise, how could we kidnap someone and forget to extort him? Otherwise, we can take the opportunity to hit Wang Shichong hard and make him feel heartbroken. Now,

It seems like I lack the grace to bring it up again. Alas!

Xu Ziling said with a smile: If the desire to be poor is not exhausted yet, the desire to lust arises again. If we can leave here safely with Mr. Xu, thank God. But you still have delusions.

Kou Zhong looked at the Tianjin Bridge in the distance and said thoughtfully: When I interrogated Wang Xuanying just now, his eyes would move two or three times every time he said something. Isn't that inappropriate of you? But I can't find any flaws. You want me to do something dangerous to him?

He tortured his brother for no reason but couldn't do it.

Xu Ziling said in a deep voice: No matter if he is true or not, if anything goes wrong, kill him and then run away and get separated, then meet at the agreed place. But where should we meet?

Kou Zhong suggested: If we are in the city, we can meet at the fish pond in Tingliu Pavilion; if we are outside the city, we can meet on the hill where Heshibi is finished! If the two of them keep silent, they will gather their strength and good luck. The boat speeds up and approaches quickly.

Tianjin Bridge.
