Chapter 70: The sword energy is subtle, the shocked prince of Beimang chases after him
Chapter 70 The sword energy is subtle, and the shocked Prince Beimang (please collect and read)
The wind is high and the night is dark.
Lu Ning stood in the courtyard where Wu Yizhao's office was, and his spiritual consciousness determined the direction.
He reached the hill behind Tianlao in one leap.
All I could see was a gloomy air, with ghostly energy rolling around.
Lu Ning's eyes darkened, and the Equinox sword flashed out of its sheath at his waist.
A sword energy passed through the rolling ghost energy and chopped it into pieces.
"ah!"
A scream that ordinary people could not hear rang out in the night sky.
Lu Ning snorted softly.
Ghosts like wild ghosts can only deal with people who lack Yang Qi.
As long as you have enough yang energy, most wild ghosts can't get close to you.
Even at night.
So he ignored the escaping wild ghost and walked away.
South gate of the city.
There was a curfew, and apart from the city gate guards, no one could be seen on the streets in the distance.
Lu Ning hid in the darkness and took a look before heading to the old Taoist temple.
It is about three kilometers away from the city gate.
There is a barren mountain in the city. The mountain is not big, but there is a broken Taoist temple on the top of the mountain.
When Lu Ning came, he saw five beggars crowded in the Taoist temple.
I didn't feel Zhongli's breath.
Standing outside the Taoist temple, his consciousness extended into the distance and he soon spotted a figure.
He immediately disappeared in a flash.
boom!
The true energy swept through, and the sword energy rolled.
"Brother Zhong, it's me!"
Before Lu Ning's Equinox Sword was completely unsheathed, the tumbling sword energy shattered it into pieces.
"Brother Lu?"
Zhongli stepped out and said with a wry smile: "The city gate is too tightly guarded."
Lu Ning frowned and said, "Can't we just go through the city gate?"
Zhong Li looked stunned: "Don't you know that both the inner city and the outer city have large defensive formations?"
"..."
Lu Ning was also stunned. He asked, why did Zhongli have to go through the city gate?
Think about it, Beijing and Zhou Dynasty are the imperial cities of the Zhou Dynasty, how could there be no defensive formation.
"In other words, there are only eight city gates that can lead to exit?" Lu Ning asked.
"Yes, either go out directly, this step is very dangerous."
Zhongli nodded and continued: "You can either wait until the formation is lifted, but isn't it time-consuming?"
Lu Ning's eyes flickered, and activating the formation was not necessarily just to capture Zhongli, but more likely to guard against King Yongshan.
King Yongshan will leave Beijing and Zhou in three days, and Zhongli will leave before tomorrow evening at the latest.
"Brother Zhong, I am responsible for attracting the people from the south gate of the city...who?!"
Just as he was speaking, Lu Ning gave a cold shout and looked coldly at the other side of the dilapidated Taoist temple.
Three figures stepped out of the darkness.
The leader, a person familiar to both Lu Ning and Zhong Li, was Xue Jingnian, the prince of Beimang.
Zhongli's eyes flashed coldly: "The people who were chasing me just now were you three?"
He attacked Lu Ning because someone was following him.
Xue Jinnian stared at Lu Ning in surprise. He didn't know Lu Ning, but Lu Ning's strength shocked him.
"Who are you?" Xue Jinnian asked, staring at Lu Ning.
Lu Ning's cold eyes flashed, and in a flash, he unsheathed his long sword and slashed at Xue Jinnian.
Standing behind Xue Jingnian, a cold man also appeared in a flash, very fast.
He stood in front of Xue Jingnian and pointed like a sword. The sword energy collided with Lu Ning's Equinox Sword.
Chi!
There was a slight collision, not violent.
But the next second.
The strong sword energy shook and opened.
The cold man stepped back three steps in a row.
Lu Ning took two steps back after landing.
"The sword energy is subtle? How is that possible!"
The cold man looked shocked.
Xue Jingnian and another entourage were also extremely shocked.
How could a young man block the subtle sword energy of a fourth-grade Perfect Immortal?
"Uncle Leng, stop it!"
Seeing that the cold man wanted to take action, Xue Jingnian hurriedly shouted to stop.
He took a step forward, saluted Lu Ning, and said very politely:
"Xue Jingnian, I wonder what I call my little brother?"
"I know you, Xue Jingnian, the prince of Beimang, but I am a nobody."
Lu Ning's cold eyes flashed and he asked again: "Why are you eavesdropping?"
Seeing that Lu Ning didn't give his name, Xue Jinnian didn't care and said with a smile: "It was a misunderstanding. I mainly came to see this friend. Unexpectedly, he was extremely wary and ran away when he sensed us."
Zhongli frowned and said, "What does the Prince of Beimang want from me?"
Xue Jingnian said: "I want to make a deal with you. I will send you out of the city. You can help me deliver a letter to Beimang Baiyu City and give the letter to Blind Man Qiao who plays the erhu downstairs in Yuewu."
Zhongli and Lu Ning looked at each other.
"How to get out?" Lu Ning asked coldly.
"During the curfew, there is also strict security. He will definitely not be able to get out. Tomorrow, I will go to the Confucius Courtyard. The east gate is guarded by the young prince of Yongshan, Zhou Xiao, who will definitely give me face."
"At that time, he will hide under the couch of my son's carriage and hold his breath. Then Zhou Xiao will not overturn my son's carriage. When he leaves the city, he can go to White Jade City first."
Xue Jingnian said.
Lu Ning glanced at Zhongli: "How far is it from Beijing and Zhouzhou to White Jade City?"
Zhongli whispered: "Thirty thousand miles."
Lu Ning asked again: "What about from Baiyu City to Yongzhou?"
Zhongli replied: "At least seventy thousand miles."
Lu Ning suddenly looked at Xue Jinnian: "You are sending a message to Beimang at this time, do you want Beimang to take advantage of the situation to raise troops?"
Xue Jingnian smiled and said: "Little brother, you are overthinking it. If my prince is in Beijing for one day, Beimang will not raise an army to rebel."
Lu Ning said nothing and looked at Zhongli.
Zhongli frowned and said, "After leaving the city, I am going to Yongzhou. Xin, I will ask my senior brother to take you to White Jade City."
Xue Jinnian raised his slender eyebrows: "How does your senior brother compare to you?"
Zhongli said solemnly: "Only strong, not weak."
Xue Jinnian nodded happily: "Okay!"
"Do you trust me so much?" Zhong Li stared at Xue Jinnian.
"Anyone who assassinates Qin Cheng and Kou Wei is my friend in Beimang." Xue Jinnian said with a flash of his eyes.
Lu Ning and Zhong Li looked at each other.
really.
The four great dandies are all at odds with each other.
Xue Jingnian said: "You hide here first, and after the curfew is lifted, go to Xianlefang, where I will wait for you."
Zhongli's eyebrows sank: "Can I still go to Xianlefang?"
Xue Jingnian raised the corner of his mouth, turned around and said: "As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is also the safest!"
After a moment, the three of them disappeared into the night.
Lu Ning's eyes flashed slightly: "He is right, just go."
Zhongli nodded.
…
The next day.
Click to end.
Lu Ning gave Cao Pei a half-day leave and asked him to go to the east gate of the city and stare at Xue Jinnian's carriage.
It's just past three o'clock.
Cao Pei came back in a hurry and went straight to the mansion.
He took a breath and said, "Brother Lu, Crown Prince Xue's carriage has already left the east gate of the city."
Lu Ning nodded: "Remember, don't tell anyone about this."
With that said, he took out ten taels of silver from the drawer and said, "Take it, drink the wine in moderation, don't go there too often."
Cao Pei said with a happy face: "Thank you, Brother Lu, I understand."
Seeing the latter going out, Lu Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally got out of the city.
Get out of the shabby room.
From a distance, Lu Ning saw Fang Yunzhan and other members of the Suppressing Demon Division, escorting a prisoner covered in blood, walking towards him.
"Brother Fang, who is he?"
"Fu Chengde, I captured him from Sangzhou overnight and put him to death."
"no problem!"
Lu Ning's eyes flashed at first, then he nodded repeatedly and asked Cao Pei and others to take Fu Chengde to the torture chamber.
Fang Yunzhan glanced in the direction of Cell No. 1, then turned to stare at Lu Ning with a questioning look in his eyes.
Lu Ning smiled and said: "It's good!"
Fang Yunzhan nodded and left with the people from the Demon Suppression Division.
Lu Ning walked into the execution room.
Cao Pei and others were beating Fu Chengde with iron whips. The red-hot iron was like burning pig skin.
Fu Chengde screamed in agony, his bones were very hard.
Lu Ning was used to seeing this scene, so she sat down and watched quietly.
Cao Pei whipped him a little, but when he saw Fu Chengde, he still didn't open his mouth.
He paused for a moment, then took a pair of pokers and pried open Fu Chengde's mouth.
"Uh huh...!"
His mouth was mashed and blood was flowing, and Fu Chengde was stunned without spitting out a word.
"Thief, why don't you say yes!"
Cao Pei learned the ruthlessness from Niu Dazhuang, and he used a pair of tongs to clamp Fu Chengde's tongue and pull it out.
"ah……!"
Even if Fu Chengde is a strong martial artist, it is impossible for him to train his tongue.
The tongue was densely covered with nerves, and the pain went straight to the brain nerves, causing his scalp to tingle and scream.
"Say it, you thief, if you don't say it, I will burn the tongs red and pinch you!"
Cao Pei's face was cold, but Fu Chengde was vomiting blood from his mouth and stared at Cao Pei angrily, but still didn't vomit a word.
Seeing this, Lu Ning slowly stood up and said, "Lock him up in the dark room until he dies!"
"It's Brother Lu!"
After Cao Pei responded, he and everyone carried Fu Chengde and left.
Lu Ning stared indifferently.
After a while, he paced and walked towards Cell No. 1 Ding.
However, at this moment, Gu Wushuang personally led the way and escorted a female prisoner.
"Yuan Wu?"
Lu Ning raised his eyebrows and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
