Chapter 406 [The thief shouts to catch the thief] (1)
This was the first time that Hu Xiaotian actually used the skills that Buwu taught him. The sense of accomplishment in his heart was indescribable. The skills that Buwu taught him were so practical that his own father would also see him.
He dare not recognize this wretched monk with a hunchback and chicken breasts as his biological son.ββ
Hu Xiaotian pressed himself against the roof tiles and listened to what was going on inside. The sound of even breathing came from the room. It seemed that the fake emperor had fallen asleep. Hu Xiaotian's body pressed against the sloping roof of the eaves like mercury dripping down, and he grabbed it with both hands at the eaves.
Living on the eaves and hanging his body on the eaves, he used Xuanming Yin Wind Claws to fall to the ground quietly without making a single sound. He came to the window, put his ear close to the window and listened carefully.
After listening to the noise for a while, I found that there was nothing unusual.
At this time, there was a noise in the Zen room on the east side. Hu Xiaotian hurriedly jumped into the air, grabbed the eaves and quietly climbed up to the roof.
A light came out of the meditation room on the east side, and two people walked out of it. They were two of the eight masters of the Tianji Bureau. One of them walked directly to the outside of the Puxian Courtyard, and the other one carried a lantern and patrolled back and forth in the courtyard.
We walked around for a while and then walked back to the meditation room on the east side.
Hu Xiaotian thought he would give up, but the man jumped up in the air again, put one hand on the eaves, and flew to the ridge of the roof.
Hu Xiaotian originally wanted to hide, but he changed his mind instantly. He kept his body still and exposed himself to the other party. The man shouted: "Who is it?"
Without saying a word, Hu Xiaotian bent his knees slightly, exerted force on his soles, and launched his body from the roof. He suddenly flew more than two feet, and then flew away to the west.
The guard also flew into the air. The height he flew up was obviously not comparable to that of Hu Xiaotian. His toes were a little above the courtyard wall, and then he flew up again. The guard's warning voice woke up the other guards and eunuchs who were resting indoors.
One by one they came out to check the situation.
Hu Xiaotian had already thrown himself into the bamboo forest on the west side. The guard was chasing after him.
Hu Xiaotian did not use all his strength. When he reached the center of the bamboo forest, he hugged the bamboo with one hand, rotated his body against the bamboo, and stopped there, looking coldly at the guards who were following him.
Seeing that he suddenly stopped running away, the guard also stopped about three feet away from Hu Xiaotian. He grabbed the bamboo with one hand, crossed his legs on the bamboo, and stared at Hu Xiaotian with his deep-set eyes, projecting a cold light like a jackal.
.
Hu Xiaotian said in a hoarse voice: "Why are you chasing me?"
The guard said coldly: "Bold monk, if you want to save your life, you should be captured as soon as possible. Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Hu Xiaotian let out a cold sneer, and then his body broke away from the bamboo and shot towards the opponent. The guard pulled out the long knife from his waist, and with a clang! The light of the knife swayed away the thin rain and mist between the two of them, and the knife went straight towards Hu Xiaotian with a sharp aura.
Come to the door.
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but praise secretly in his heart. The level of this sword was definitely that of a first-rate master. It seemed that the Tianji Bureau was indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The few guards they randomly sent were so powerful. Hu Xiaotian did not choose to fight with him. His body suddenly trembled in the middle.
Turn. He avoided the opponent's attack at an incredible angle and climbed to another moso bamboo. The opponent's sword missed and was killed on the moso bamboo where Hu Xiaotian was standing just now. The moso bamboo was chopped into two pieces and slowly fell down.
Hu Xiaotian said: "We are all our own people, why are we so vicious!"
The guard was slightly startled when he heard this, not understanding what Hu Xiaotian meant.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong sent me here!" He couldn't even guess. The reason why he said this was because he still couldn't tell whether the old emperor was actually Mr. Hong.
The guard did not launch a second attack immediately, and looked at Hu Xiaotian with a suspicious look in his eyes.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong sent me here to meet you!"
"What credentials do you have?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Let your boss talk to me!"
The guard nodded, but suddenly raised his long knife and struck at the green bamboo where Hu Xiaotian was standing.
At the same time, there was a rustling sound from the bamboo leaves above the head, and a guard descended from the sky, stabbing straight down from the top with a spear in his hand. He aimed at the top of Hu Xiaotian's head, intending to poke a bloody hole in the man's bare Tianling Gai.
Hu Xiaotian faced their attacks from above and below without any panic. He retreated backwards and used the Eighteen Steps of Hide-the-Gou in the bamboo forest, walking like a ghost.
He has now mastered the art of flying, and has absorbed Monk Yuankong's lifelong skills. He has also improved a lot in hiding the dog's eighteen steps, and it is really effortless to dodge the two guards.
Hu Xiaotian had no intention of fighting, and it didn't take long for him to throw the two away and quickly return to Wuguantang. Although the two guards were strong in martial arts, their lightness skills were far behind Hu Xiaotian's, and they did not pursue him at all.
chance on him.
Hu Xiaotian was convinced that no one was following him, so he returned to the Zen room in Wuguan Hall. He left through the window and entered through the window. He quickly took off the wet monk's robe, restored his original appearance, and put on another new monk's robe.
, then opened the door to wake up the guards under his command, and led the guards to rush towards the direction of Puxian Yuan in the rain.
Hu Xiaotian's group of imperial guards didn't know what was going on. They heard the movement at Puxian Academy only when they were halfway through. Only then did they know that something happened at Puxian Academy. They all suddenly became nervous. This time they
The mission of coming to Tianlong Temple is to protect the emperor. If anything happens to the emperor, they will be in trouble.
A group of people encountered other imperial guards outside the door. Everyone was on their own and naturally told the truth. In fact, the imperial guards who were responsible for patrolling outside did not see clearly what happened. They just heard that someone had sneaked into Puxian.
In the hospital, two of the guards around the emperor were responsible for tracking but they returned in vain. The emperor had just issued an order not to make any noise, but Hu Xiaotian and the others still got the news and rushed over.
When the group of guards were discussing in front of the door, the young eunuch Yin Zheng came out with a lantern. Seeing that it was Hu Xiaotian and the others coming, Yin Zheng hurriedly waved to Hu Xiaotian. Hu Xiaotian walked over and stood under the rain shield at the gate of Puxian Yuan.
Standing under the eaves, Yin Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Why are Master Hu here?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I just went out to pee and heard some movement here. I was worried that the emperor had made a mistake, so I immediately gathered my brothers and came over."
Yin Zheng said: "It's nothing, nothing!"
Hu Xiaotian sneered: "Didn't you say that someone sneaked into Puxian Yuan?" He became more and more suspicious of Yin Zheng. This little eunuch is most likely a direct descendant of Hong Beimo. He thought he recognized me as his eldest brother at the beginning, but he just wanted to confuse me.
, Yin Zheng, ah Yin Zheng, if you dare to plot against me together with Hong Beimo, don't blame me for being unkind, Hu Xiaotian had murderous thoughts in his heart.
Yin Zheng may have felt Hu Xiaotian's murderous intent, and she shuddered in her heart, and whispered: "Brother, leave quickly, don't let your majesty..."
It was too late for Yin Zheng to say these words at this time. A eunuch came out and said in a sharp voice: "The emperor has sent a message to Lord Hu to pay an audience."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and strode in.
The old emperor's Zen room was now brightly lit, and two guards were stationed outside the door. Seeing Hu Xiaotian, one of them said: "Commander Hu came so quickly." It was the one who had just discovered Hu Xiaotian and tracked him all the way to the bamboo forest. He passed by just now
After that experience, Hu Xiaotian had great confidence in his Qing Gong, and he seemed to have become a Qing Gong master.
Hu Xiaotian snorted coldly and walked into the Zen room. The old emperor stood there quietly, looking out the window. The window was completely open at this time. The night wind outside kept sneaking into the room with drizzle, and the candlelight was blown erratically by the wind.
, the light in the Zen room flickers on and off.
Hu Xiaotian bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I just heard the noise coming from here, so I specially led my brothers to come over to protect you."
"You are somewhat loyal!"
Hu Xiaotian cursed in his heart, what are these words? What does it mean that I am somewhat loyal? I am loyal to begin with, but you are just a traitor. He said cautiously: "Your Majesty, what happened?"
Long Xuanen still turned his back to him and whispered: "Someone sneaked into Puxian Yuan tonight."
"What? Who is so bold as to disturb the Holy Emperor? Are all the guards around His Majesty useless? They actually allowed the assassin to sneak in easily?" Hu Xiaotian's words immediately aroused the same hatred among Long Xuanen's personal guards, one by one.
He cast his eyes fiercely at Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian seemed to have not seen him: "Your Majesty, can you see who it is?"
Long Xuan'en said: "It should be a monk with a chicken breast and a hunchback, and he looks ugly."
Hu Xiaotian secretly laughed in his heart, with chicken breasts and a hunched back, and an ugly appearance? You may never have imagined that he is the handsome young man in front of you with a beautiful tree facing the wind and a face as beautiful as a jade. He clasped his fists and asked for orders: "Your Majesty, I will immediately lead my men to launch a search, even if they search the entire Tianlong Temple
This monk must also be found in every corner of the city."
Long Xuanen's heart was moved. Originally, he wanted to cover up the matter, but Hu Xiaotian's words reminded him that tonight's incident was an excellent opportunity. It would be better to use his plan and let Hu Xiaotian make Tianlong Temple disturbed.
He nodded immediately and said: "If I can't find that monk, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep and eat well. Hu Xiaotian, you must not let me down again this time."
"yes!"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Your Majesty, I have one more request."
"explain!"
Hu Xiaotian glanced at the close guards on both sides and said: "When His Majesty is in the imperial city, we, the imperial guards, are always responsible for his safety. There has never been such a big omission. I thought that the masters of the Tianji Bureau must have done something extraordinary, but
Judging from what happened tonight, itβs nothing more than that.β
A dark-skinned guard on the side was the first to lose his temper and said angrily: "If it weren't for you imperial guards to be so stubborn, why did Mr. Hong send us here?"
Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "Is the Tianji Bureau amazing? How dare you insult our imperial guards!"
The dark-skinned guard sneered: "Besides showing off your words, what other abilities do you have?"
Hu Xiaotian stared at the face of the guard and said word by word: "Your Majesty, please give me a chance to experience the power of the masters of the Tianji Bureau!" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
