In fact, it was not that the three arrows were being pulled, but that the grabbing speed of the hand was faster than the arrow speed, and the three arrows were caught in the hand.
As Zihua sat up from the couch, she caught the next three arrows.
Although the three black figures on the wall were surprised by Zihua's ability to catch arrows with his bare hands, they had no intention of retreating.
Zihua opened the door and walked out.
Three black figures each held weapons and flew towards Zihua in different directions, intending to besiege her.
Zihua didn't pick up her stick, but threw the arrow in her hand back to the three of them.
The three black figures saw each other's intentions but didn't take it seriously. If the arrow could hit them like this, then what else would a crossbow machine do?
If they were close, they would have to be on guard. How could they hit it now that they were so far away?
Among the news they received, there was a record of Yuxi defeating five or six imperial guards.
They are not those guards who only know rudimentary skills.
flutter!
The sound of the wind breaking as the arrow flew quickly reached my ears, but there was a muffled sound that penetrated my flesh, and then the pain reached my brain.
The pain is followed by numbness.
poisonous.
They put the poison on the arrowheads themselves.
Three black figures fell from the air, making the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground, which was particularly clear in this silent night.
The door of room A opened in darkness, and guards A, B, C, and D came out, each holding a rope in his hand.
Looking at the three motionless black figures, the four people stepped forward and tried to breathe. They were either dead or fainted.
The four people began to search and tie people up.
Guard A held the small crossbow machine that was taken off the arm of a black shadow, and looked at it with admiration, "This little thing is so powerful."
It was at least fifty meters from the palace wall to Tingxuan. He could see clearly through the window panes in the room. The visitor did not waste any effort. He turned the mechanism and the arrow went straight to Tingxuan.
The arrow flew very fast, and as soon as the sound was heard, the arrow shot into the pavilion.
He sweated a lot for Miss Yuxi.
He even scolded himself at that moment, saying that Miss Yuxi didn't care about anything because she didn't need help? He had benefited from Miss Yuxi.
Fortunately, Miss Yuxi really had extraordinary martial arts skills and caught it with her bare hands.
But this does not mean that this crossbow machine is not powerful enough.
If it were him, he would definitely not be able to escape.
Guard B took the crossbow machine away from Guard A, "I'll hand it over to Captain Chang."
He saw that Imperial Guard A wanted to keep it privately, and he wanted it too, but because this thing was too powerful, it was too sensitive. If he tried to hide it privately, he would risk losing his head.
In the middle of the night, Zihua didn't bother to ask, so she asked the guards to find an unoccupied room and throw the three of them in.
There is no need to guard them. The poison in the three people is difficult to wake up without an antidote. Even if they really wake up, they can't run away. Zihua released a trace of spiritual power in everyone's Dantian.
She went back to the pavilion to sleep.
She gave the crossbow machine to Captain Chang to Guard B, who then sent for the black-clothed secret guard who was protecting Kong Meiren. The black-clothed secret guard quietly carried the crossbow machine.
After leaving the series of actions in Jingfang Palace, just watch and not care.
She basically concluded that Lieutenant Chang was the emperor's man.
Captain Chang used to have a sullen attitude of "I don't know, I don't care." But now that he saw that the matter had developed to the extent that it affected the emperor's safety, he immediately stepped forward.
I'm afraid the case of the two poisoned eunuchs will also be reported to the police for investigation.
…………
"Where are Captain Chang?" Lieutenant Zhu, who came on duty early in the morning, could not see anyone in the guardhouse. "Where are the others? Why isn't Peng Hu here?"
Others don't mention it, but Peng Hu has a majestic name, but he is not very courageous and would never dare to leave his post without permission.
After a while, I found about thirty of Captain Chang's men, patrolling everywhere and having breakfast. They looked normal.
But Lieutenant Chang, a few of his cronies, and Peng Hu's group were nowhere to be seen.
Lieutenant Zhu ordered his men, "Go and look everywhere." How could a dozen living people disappear out of thin air?
Not long after, someone reported, "Yesterday someone saw Captain Chang leading a group of people to the Cold Palace, but no one saw them coming out of the Cold Palace."
"I went to Leng Gong..." Captain Zhu couldn't think of a reason and asked, "What happened to Leng Gong yesterday?"
"There is one thing. Kong Jieyu was demoted to a beauty by His Majesty and was immediately moved to the cold palace. Kong Jieyu only brought one maid there. Did the emperor call Captain Chang to escort her?
Colonel Chang's men thought the same way, so they didn't take it seriously that Captain Chang didn't leave the palace at night."
Lieutenant Zhu was indifferent to the fact that Kong Jieyu became a beauty, because the status of beauty Kong had risen and fallen several times, which became the norm in the palace.
Even though it was the first time that she had been demoted to the cold palace, it did not prove that Kong Meiren had lost her sacred heart.
The emperor sent someone to protect Kong Meiren, "it's somewhat possible."
It has happened before that the emperor temporarily ordered the imperial guards to stay in the palace to run errands.
Lieutenant Zhu could not rely on guesswork, "If we check further, it will always be recorded that Lieutenant Chang was on night duty in the palace."
Chang Xiaowei's family background is not ordinary. He only lacks qualifications, and he may become his boss within two years.
If something happened to Captain Chang instead of being sent by the emperor, then he would have made a big mistake in not asking in time.
There are always shadows everywhere people pass.
It is true that there are people on duty outside Kong Meiren's palace in the cold palace, but only two guards were sent to guard the palace.
Later, a guard came to look for Peng Hu. Peng Hu took four guards to the cold palace and never returned.
After a while, someone reported Peng Hu's matter to Captain Chang, who took eleven guards there. Even when the palace door was locked, Captain Chang did not come out.
"Is it possible that it really has something to do with Beauty Kong?" Colonel Zhu grabbed his chin.
If he can't decide on his own, just report it.
Lieutenant Zhu led his people to see the commander of the imperial guards.
Regardless of whether the guard commander knew it before, he knew it now. Commander Ren gave an order to Captain Zhu, "Take some people to Jingfang Palace to rescue Captain Chang."
Lieutenant Zhu heard what was going on. Commander Ren was talking about rescue. Co-author Commander Ren knew about it, but he didn't.
What was he reporting? He asked Commander Ren for advice, "Commander, why is Captain Chang trapped in Jingfang Palace? How many people should I bring with me?"
"Go as you are told. You shouldn't ask any other questions. Take all your men with you. After Captain Chang rescues them, they will surround Jingfang Palace and no one will be allowed in or out."
"yes."
"Don't disturb Beauty Kong."
"...Yes." Lieutenant Zhu felt bitter. He led a group of people into Jingfang Palace, how could he not disturb them?
He had no choice but to carry out the orders given by the commander.
Lieutenant Zhu went back and gathered all fifty of his men, lined them up and marched to Leng Palace.
As they walked, Captain Zhu came to his senses and ordered that his steps should not be hasty, but slow and powerful, and that he should step out of the imposing manner of the imperial guards.
