Although Sun Renyu and others from Chang'an and Wannian counties worked hard to maintain the security, the security inside the city was not much better than outside the city. As soon as he left the city gate less than a hundred steps away, Wang Xun witnessed two robbery cases. The perpetrators
Relying on the strength of their numbers, they did not pay any attention to the government officials who came to interfere. Once they found that the latter was not as powerful as themselves, they immediately drew their swords and faced each other. When a large group of government officials came to support them, they dispersed in a rush, leaving the opponent with no chance at all.
There is no pursuit.
Wang Xun, Fang Ziling and others were riding Dawan horses that were only one in a thousand. In peacetime, any horse they pulled out could be sold for more than a hundred horses in Chang'an City. However, the vehicles ridden by Aunt Gongsun and other women, although
They are not qualified to use any silver or gold equipment, but they are also extremely luxurious, exuding an aura of wealth inside and out. It is impossible for such a team to be immune to the prying eyes of thugs. In the blink of an eye, there are dozens of people
The scoundrels gathered around shouting.
At this critical moment, Wang Xun did not dare to show mercy. He knocked his mount with his legs and rushed towards the perpetrator. Wanqi Yuxie and Wang Shisan led the other guards to follow closely, and after two back and forth, they surrounded him.
The rogues who came over were cut to pieces.
He left the corpse on the ground and continued to move forward. After walking half the street, the road ahead was blocked by a larger group of thugs. The leader of the thug was holding a horned bow he didn't know where he got it from.
, gesticulating at Wang Xun's chest. Seeing this, Wanqi Yuxie quickly rode in front of his general. Wang Shisan took off the water bag from behind the saddle and threw it out as a concealed weapon. The crossbow-wielding man
After all, the rogue had never been on the battlefield, and his experience in killing people was far less than that of Wang Xun and others. When he saw a black figure coming from mid-air towards his door, he instinctively raised his horned bow. At this moment,
Fang Ziling's sword light had arrived, and with a pop, the crossbow and its owner's arms were swept into the air.
"Those who surrender will avoid death!" The guards' cooperation with each other became almost instinctive. They shouted and rushed over, cutting a bloody passage among the blockers.
The scoundrels who were hit by the horizontal knife screamed and fell to the ground. The scoundrels who were lucky enough not to be hit fled in all directions. However, they refused to go too far and hid deep in the alley, looking at Wang Xun and others with hatred and greed.
People, prepare for the next sneak attack.
If he continues like this, I'm afraid he will have to face Juma and a series of crossbows next time. Wang Xun has experienced hundreds of battles, but he has never been in such a dilemma like today. When he was at a loss, Xiang suddenly came from behind.
The familiar voice of the county lady: "My husband said that Mr. Bian Lingcheng hid in Jingzhao Yin Yamen this morning. If you are in a hurry to find him, you might as well take a detour elsewhere. This road connects the east and west cities.
Like a mountain of gold and a sea of gold, it will naturally attract the attention of thieves!"
"You..." Wang Xun's first reaction was not the quality of the suggestion, but the other party's behavior, "Why haven't you left yet?!"
"The road is too chaotic. If there is no one to take care of us, our family will not be able to go far at all. General, we are all real relatives. You have to be a good person and do it to the end. Let us follow you!" Mrs. Xiangjun's eyes immediately turned red.
The delicate cry. The voice is gentle and charming, even more numb than the bride on the wedding night.
"The general has been kind to his subordinates for saving lives, but I have nothing to repay. I would rather serve you in front of me and behind my back!" Mrs. Xiangjun's husband was no less thick-skinned than his wife. He jumped down from the carriage, turned to Wang Xun, and nodded.
Then worship.
"Please show mercy, General!" Although Mrs. Xiangjun's two daughters were dissatisfied with their parents' behavior, for the sake of the safety of the whole family, they suppressed their shame, jumped out of the carriage, and saluted Wang Xun generously.
"General, we don't have to worry about having these few people in the team anyway." Before Wang Xun could refuse, Wan Qi Yu Xie had quietly turned his mount and stood behind Mrs. Xiangjun's family. At the same time, he shook his blade and pointed at the others.
The man made a gesture of preparing to kill and silence him.
"That's fine!" Wang Xun instantly realized his negligence and shook his head gently at Wanqi Yuxi, and then nodded gently. The couple in front of him were not good birds. He had let them leave when they were outside the city.
, and we are not afraid that they will reveal their identities. If they refuse their request to travel together at this moment, I am afraid that in the blink of an eye, this couple will go to Bian Lingcheng to report.
Mrs. Xiangjun and her bearded husband didn't know that their family had just wandered around the gate of hell. They heard Wang Xun's words suggest a sense of relief, and immediately expressed their opinions excitedly, "Thank you, General, for taking me in. Thank you, General, for taking me in. You bitch."
I don’t have any other skills, I’m just familiar with the filial piety of the parents in the city.”
"My subordinate has been serving beside Prime Minister Yang, and I remember very clearly the personnel changes in the court over the past few years. If the general can use it, my subordinate will definitely know everything and tell you everything!"
"Tell us how we should go next!" Wang Xun frowned and interrupted in a low voice, "I am not in a hurry to see Bian Lingcheng. I want to go to Chongrenfang first."
"Chongrenfang?!" The bearded official was stunned, and immediately began to flatter Wang Xun, "Are you going to settle down your family? A general is the most benevolent and filial person in the world...Ah, let go!"
"You're the one who's so long-winded!" Mrs. Xiangjun gave her husband a hard squeeze and interrupted his nonsense. "General, don't blame him. He's used to being long-winded, and he won't be able to change it for a while. You want to
If you go to Chongrenfang, it’s best to go around the south of the city and avoid the east and west cities and the imperial palace..."
Not willing to be outdone by his wife, the bearded official reluctantly added loudly, "Yes, yes, yes! We go around the south of the city. The south of the city is poor, except for the Qujiang Pond area..."
Because the imperial palace is located to the north of the center of Chang'an City, the layout of the capital has always been based on the north. The people who live in the northern city are either rich or noble. The closer to the palace, the more prominent the status of the owner of the house. In the southern city, most of the people living in the lower-level houses are small.
The residences of officials and ordinary people. The further away from the palace, the more shabby and humble the location becomes. The only exception is Qujiang Pond in the southeast corner of the city, where the villas of the powerful are located. Ordinary people can come up and take a look, let alone buy them.
It's all a luxury.
Wang Xun was already familiar with the situation in Chang'an City. After being reminded by Mrs. Xiangjun and her husband, he immediately understood the reason. Without hesitation, he turned his mount and led the team to the south of the city. Mrs. Xiangjun's husband then
He volunteered and rode a draft horse, following closely behind Wang Xun. While running, he panted and put forward his own suggestions for finding the way.
Not to mention that Mrs. Xiangjun’s husband was not a very good official and a very bad person, but his ability to guide the way was first-class. He led everyone around in a large circle and successfully reached Chang’an City.
On the northeast side of the road. Although we encountered several groups of scoundrels taking advantage of the situation on the way, the scale was much smaller than the previous two groups, and they were not as courageous as the previous two groups. When I heard the sound of horse hooves, I came out to take a look, and saw
When Wang Xun and others saw the blood-stained Heng Dao in their hands, they immediately retracted their heads into the alley on the roadside and never dared to come out again.
Bypassing Dongshi and Longqingfang, they turned around and headed to Xizha. Between Yirenfang and Anxingfang, they killed another group of scoundrels who tried to take advantage of the situation. The group then turned south and arrived outside Chongrenfang.
From afar, Wang Xun saw a group of gangsters rushing toward the gate of the square, shouting and screaming, while inside the square, there was another group of people struggling to support themselves. The two sides were stalemate at the gate of the square, and no one was willing to retreat, and the blood flowed freely.
It flows down like a stream through the wooden door frame.
"The Feilong Imperial Guard is on duty, get out of the way!" In desperation, Wang Xun once again used Bian Lingcheng's signature brand. He waved his horizontal sword and rushed into the battle group from behind. Wan Qi Yu Xie and Wang Shi
San led a group of guards to follow up quickly, slashing left and right, showing no mercy.
Compared with all the opponents we encountered today, the group of guys who attacked Chongrenfang were undoubtedly much stronger. To a certain extent, they were even as well-trained as soldiers. After experiencing the initial panic, they immediately gave up attacking Chongren.
He turned his head and launched a counterattack towards the cavalry.
A long spear grazed the top of Wang Xun's thigh and made a dark red gash in the Feilong Imperial Guard's robe he had snatched. He gritted his teeth and twisted his body to sweep across, the blade throwing up a cloud of blood mist.
Two points of cold light came out from behind the blood mist and went straight to his lower abdomen. "It's Yanqi Boring!" Realizing the danger, he raised his knife to block it, and then slashed it down with another knife. "Long Wujun's thing for inspection.
It’s beautiful but useless!”
The wild goose wing boring machine was tilted, and the person holding the boring machine staggered back. Wan Qi Yu Xie came up from the side and chopped off the man's head. Wang Shisan rushed to Wang Xun's left side and knocked over the two attempts with his horse head.
The thug who sneaked up on his leader slashed another one with his sword. Immediately afterwards, his face became hot and his vision was blurred by the blood. He could vaguely see one of his brothers being lifted into the air by several long sticks.
Hands and feet waving around.
"Array, form!" Fang Ziling shouted at the end of the team. But he got no response. The street width was limited and could not allow the cavalry array to spread out. And the number of opponents was too large, almost blocking every gap. He
Shouting, he drew out the Fubo Crossbow and shot one over without even taking aim. Then he jumped off his mount and swung his sword sharply.
The enemies swarmed in and engulfed his figure. Then they retreated one after another, leaving behind countless twitching corpses. Fang Ziling was exhausted and staggered. But a gentle force came from his armpits, holding his body firmly.
Fixed, fixed straight, straight.
"You..." Turning around suddenly, he saw Aunt Gongsun's resolute face. The traces of time could no longer be concealed in the corners of her eyes, but her eyes were still as bright as waves. "Be careful! Here we go again!" Aunt Gongsun smiled,
He waved his swords and protected Fang Ziling's back as before. "Be careful too!" Fang Ziling nodded sharply, and all the disappeared power returned to his body in an instant, and his whole body was like a tiger descending from the mountain.
After breaking through an obstacle, the backs of the two brothers appeared in front of him. The mounts had fallen to the ground, separating most of the opponents for their masters. The four men reorganized into a small formation behind the horses' corpses, covering each other, and approached Wang Xun on foot.
Blades, sharp edges, cold arrows, and stray arrows, even in Juzhanti City back then, the situation was not as dangerous as it is today.
The enemy was well-equipped, well-trained, and had very high morale. What they lacked was just experience. In order to rush over to join the general, Fang Ziling suffered at least two more stab wounds and one stab wound on his body. Fortunately, none of them were fatal. In a short time,
It has no effect on combat effectiveness.
Wang Xun was also fighting very hard at this moment. It was all due to his proficiency in martial arts that he barely managed to avoid being knocked off his mount by his opponent. Realizing that the situation was not right, he quickly changed his tactics, chopped down the two closest blockers, and turned around.
Mount, and rush outside the battle group.
"Don't let anyone go!" Among the crowd, a guy in black clothes commanded in a drake voice. Wang Xun quickly turned his head away, and at the same time bent down to grab a paint gun. The look in the eyes of the person giving the order was the same as that of a drake.
When they faced each other, they immediately saw the surprise that could not be hidden in each other's eyes.
"Stop him, he is..." The male duck stretched out his hand to point at Wang Xun, preparing to reveal his true identity. However, the second half of the words was stuck in his throat by the paint gun coming from the sky. He covered it with his hands.
He felt so unwilling to fight his neck. He staggered for a few steps, spun, spun, and then fell headlong into a pool of blood.
"Master Wei!" The "thugs" who had previously surrounded Wang Xun and others in a deadly fight immediately panicked, crying and rushing towards the fallen corpse. Taking this opportunity, Wang Xun knocked on the belly of his horse again, and fought with Wan Qiyu
Together, Xie and others launched the final attack on their opponents.
"Master Wei is dead!"
"They killed Mr. Wei!"
"Bian Lingcheng ordered someone to do it!"
"Kill him to avenge Mr. Wei! Ah!"
The "thugs" cried and complained angrily, but could no longer organize an effective attack. They were killed by Wang Xun, Wan Qiyu Xie and others and retreated steadily. People in Chongrenfang also discovered what had happened outside.
Under the leadership of a young general holding two swords, they all came out, working together from the inside and outside, and chopped down the "thugs" until they were on their backs.
The offensive and defensive momentum was immediately reversed. The thugs were attacked from both sides and collapsed in an instant. "Second brother, second brother, it's really you. You're back!"
Wang Xun came running, shouting loudly as he ran. "I believe you will come back. I have really been waiting for you! I have been really waiting for you!"
"Shou Zhi?!" Wang Xun stopped his mount in shock and looked at Ma Fang, who was rushing towards him. He could hardly believe his eyes.
"It's me, it's me!" Seeing that Wang Xun could still recognize him, Ma Fang jumped for joy. "I originally wanted to take your family with me, but I didn't expect to be blocked..."
"Cang!" His words were interrupted by the sound of weapons falling to the ground. Wang Xun on the horse had his hands empty and stared blankly at the entrance of Chongrenfang. The muscles in his chest kept twitching. Among the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Bai Yuzhi held a knife in one hand.
, holding a shield in one hand, walked over slowly. Every step he took was shaky, but he still refused to let his body soften.
Over the past few years, Bai Yongzhi's flower-like face appeared countless times in Wang Xun's dreams, but never once was as good as one ten thousandth of the time.
