Su Ting's eyes were poisoned. Before anyone could react, he saw clearly that what was coming was an iron arrow, and immediately shouted "Escort".
There was a lot of noise around him, and even Jin Shang didn't hear clearly what he was shouting. He only knew that suddenly, he was thrown to the ground by Su Ting, his thin white face rubbed against the ground, and he felt burning pain instantly.
At the same time, Lao Wei saw a short arrow coming, and immediately drew his sword out of its sheath to protect Zhang Xutang. However, just when he was about to swing the sword, he felt a slight difference in the direction of the short arrow and Zhang Xutang.
difference.
He realized almost immediately that the arrow was not aimed at Zhang Xutang, but at Zhang Rui!
Before he could shout, he casually grabbed someone from beside him and threw him in Zhang Rui's direction - either to make Zhang Rui lie down or to have someone block the arrow for Zhang Rui.
The person he caught was a child of seven or eight years old. He was holding a bunch of candied haws in his hand. He was suddenly picked up and thrown out, and he immediately let out a loud scream.
Su Ting tightly guarded Jin Shang and lay on the ground, with only his head held high, looking out from the light of the Forbidden Army's swords.
He watched the arrow kill Zhang Rui, and then watched a child being thrown out of Lao Wei's hand. Then his pupils suddenly dilated as he looked at a hand that suddenly appeared.
The hand stretched out from the crowd, reached in front of Zhang Rui quickly and accurately, and then grabbed the arrow shaft without sparing any effort.
At the same time, the child also rolled onto Zhang Rui. Zhang Rui groaned and fell to the ground. The child sat down on the ground, opened his mouth, and then let out a howling sound that shook the house.
This series of changes happened in an instant. Before the onlookers could react, they were stunned by the light of the Forbidden Army's sword.
Silence is like a plague, spreading bit by bit. The originally bustling south of Xianqiao gradually became quiet starting from under the colorful building.
The child stood up in a hurry, not daring to pick up the candied haws on the ground, so he turned around and ran, squeezing into the crowd.
The hand holding the arrow shaft has clear joints and is covered with calluses. The owner of the hand is wearing an ordinary short brown suit, and his face is hidden in the shadow of the big brim. The lower half of his face is calm and has no ripples at all.
.
Lao Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhang Xutang also breathed a sigh of relief. Su Ting was still vigilant, and while helping Jin Shang up, he sent people to arrest people on the Cailou.
At this moment, there was another commotion on the Cailou, and low and panicked calls came from among the prostitutes. When everyone looked up, they saw a woman pushing away everyone, struggling to reach the railing, and facing the chaos below.
The elephant showed a stunned expression.
Su Ting saw what was different about her at a glance - there was clearly the shape of a heavy object falling out of her sleeves, and he knew it was a crossbow at a glance.
"That's her! Catch her!" He made a prompt decision and ordered people to go forward and catch Song Huiyue.
The Imperial Guards swarmed out to climb the colorful building. Song Huiyue was going to leave in the crowd. Regardless of whether he succeeded or not, he threw the Chuannu into the river. But now he was leaning on the railing, his head and face covered with sweat.
, Two legs wanted to run, but they didn’t.
She opened her mouth as if she wanted to call someone's name, but as if she was afraid of offending others, she swallowed the name that was about to come out.
Then she suddenly raised her arms and shouted: "It's me!"
After the sound, the man standing next to Zhang Rui moved his hands, but there was no response.
Li Changfeng had stepped on his companion's shoulders and climbed onto the colorful building, trying to twist Song Huiyue's arm. Song Huiyue turned away and took advantage of the situation to pull out a short knife and make random gestures at the prostitutes around her.
Prostitutes are all weak women. When Song Huiyue and Li Changfeng were frightened by the knives, they immediately became panicked and ran around screaming. Li Changfeng's eyesight was blocked, and Song Huiyue escaped from his hands like a swimming fish.
But he didn't leave, but got to the railing again.
Then, she shouted again: "It's me! Wake up!"
After this sound, the man next to Zhang Rui reacted, raised his head, looked at Cailou from under the brim of his hat.
He is Yin Xiao.
But it's not Yinxiao either.
His ears, eyes, mind, and heart were all sealed up during the long period of fighting and humiliation. It was as if he had made a shell for himself and placed the human part inside the shell. The only thing left outside was the beast.
That side of.
Song Huiyue's cry caused his shell to shake violently, and there was a crack. When Song Huiyue spoke for the second time, his shell immediately fell apart, and the sun shone into his heart again, and all the darkness and pain receded, and his eyes
There is light inside.
He turned his head and glanced at Zhang Rui, who had just stood up next to him, and the arrow shaft in his hand.
Then without saying a word, he raised his hand and inserted the short arrow into Zhang Rui's heart.
Blood mist spattered, and Zhang Rui's face faded in an instant.
The person closest to Zhang Rui reached out and touched his face, and felt the hot blood. When he raised his hand and looked at it, he immediately shook it into a withered leaf in the wind, and let out a twisted scream: "Killing!"
The crowd that had been silent just now seemed to have been poured with hot oil, boiling violently, and fled in all directions. The Imperial Army could only stand still in the rolling tide and defend the city.
Song Huiyue stepped on the railing, turned over and jumped down. Her gorgeous clothes drew a gorgeous brilliance under the lights. Yinxiao jumped up, caught Song Huiyue, squatted on the spot, and carried Song Huiyue on his back.
on the back.
Then one of the two moved his mouth, the other moved his legs, and while everyone was still stunned, they hurried away.
"One team to chase!" Su Ting guarded Jinshang and issued an order to hunt down the murderer of Prime Minister Zhang. At the same time, he felt that the scene in front of him seemed familiar.
Jinshang and King Yan stood there, their faces blank, their minds empty, and they no longer knew what expressions to make. Yue Zhongtai quickly came to his senses after the sudden change, and he already had a new plan in mind - the court was going to be turned upside down.
"Dad!" Zhang Xutang rushed forward, caught the shaky Zhang Rui, and fell to the ground with Zhang Rui.
Zhang Rui still had a short arrow stuck in his heart, and a large amount of blood was stained on his white sweatshirt. His eyes were losing their luster, there was surprise in his expression, and his body was falling heavily.
The indestructible Zhang family he built with his own hands is leaving him.
Zhang Xutang raised his hand to pull out the arrow, but did not dare to move. In the end, he just put his hand under the arrow shaft and let the blood flow all over his hand.
He himself had been injured by an arrow, so he knew that Zhang Rui's situation at this time was completely different from his own - Song Huiyue was not strong enough, but Yin Xiao was full of strength, and the arrow shaft did not go in too deep, leaving only a length of knuckles.
outside.
My father may not be able to be saved!
This made him feel that his internal organs were aching, his vision was blurry, everything around him was floating upwards, the chaotic sounds became more and more distant, and he and his father sank down into a pool of blood.
"Dad?" He called once, and then called again, "Dad!"
Zhang Rui opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but blood poured out of his mouth and his throat was clogged with blood. He could only stretch out his hand and grab Zhang Xutang.
"Zhang...Zhang family..." He struggled to make a sound like air flow.
"I know, I know," Zhang Xutang panicked, knelt on the ground and hugged Zhang Rui's upper body, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Old Wei! Old Wei, go and call the imperial doctor! Call the doctor!"
Then he held Zhang Rui's hand and said tremblingly: "Dad, you can't die..."
