Those dozen riders were none other than Prime Minister Lu and his twelve silver-faced demon guards.
Soon, they arrived and reined in the horses' heads two feet away from Lin Yi's carriage.
The carriage brought by Prime Minister Lu stopped ten feet away behind them. They didn't know what was in the carriage.
Tonight, the moon is as bright as a mirror.
The wilderness was illuminated brightly.
So both Prime Minister Lu and Lin Yi can see each other clearly.
Hong En, the leader of the Twelve Demon Guards, whispered to Prime Minister Lu: "Prime Minister, the man with the butcher knife is Zeng Tengyun from Shili Killing Field. I met him a few years ago."
Prime Minister Lu glanced at Zeng Tengyun.
He has heard of the title of the best swordsman in the world.
Lin Yi said in the car: "Master Xiang, because I am seriously injured, Lin Yi cannot get out of the car to meet me."
Prime Minister Lu also witnessed the battle between Lin Yi and Linghu Zanghun on the shore of Bohai. Lin Yi was about to be dispersed by Linghu Zanghun. Prime Minister Lu also saw it.
Prime Minister Lu said: "I know you were seriously injured, and I don't blame you. But there is one thing I must investigate. Lin Yi, you are really brave, and you dare to threaten me in this letter. Do you know that except for the Holy Lord, this
No one in the world can threaten me!"
Lin Yi said: "Master Xiang, Zuo Chaoyang and I are brothers and sisters. To save his life, I wrote the offending letter out of desperation. So..."
Prime Minister Lu interrupted Lin Yi and said, "I don't listen to excuses. In short, I can't let anyone who threatens me live. You are no exception."
As soon as Mr. Lu said these words, the ten silver-faced demon guards behind him put their hands on their waist weapons.
Just wait for Prime Minister Lu to give the order.
Hu Yanyu'er, who was pretending to be Zeng Tengyun, also held her hand on the handle of the butcher knife. But she was not Zeng Tengyun after all. Hu Yanyu'er felt very uneasy.
The other four southern masters also held their hands on the handles of their weapons.
Lin Yi still looked calm.
Meeting Mr. Lu tonight is a gamble with one's wealth and one's life.
He has to scare Prime Minister Lu.
If you can't stop it, the consequences will be disastrous.
Lin Yi said calmly: "Master Xiang, although I am seriously injured, are you really sure you can kill me?"
Prime Minister Lu said expressionlessly: "I have twelve demon guards, and there are a thousand elite soldiers on standby five miles away. As long as they see a signal, they will come and kill."
Hu Yanyu'er and several masters from the southern border were even more shocked after hearing this.
I don’t know whether what Xiang Lu said is true or false.
Not to mention the thousand elite soldiers, even the twelve demon guards wearing silver masks behind Prime Minister Lu couldn't stop them at all.
Lin Yi smiled, his smile was unfathomable.
Lin Yi said: "I'm afraid that the war will be over before the Prime Minister's thousand elite soldiers arrive and we will escape. Prime Minister, no matter how stupid I am, can I be so stupid as to come here with a seriously injured body for the Prime Minister to chop me down?"
Prime Minister Lu said with great interest: "Oh? Can Zeng Tengyun alone stop my twelve demon guards?"
Lin Yi smiled but didn't answer.
At this time, a voice sounded in the forest.
"Master Xiang, what if you add me?"
"And I!"
Following the sound, two people walked in the forest.
One is Su Qinghou and the other is Wang Guihui.
When Wang returned, he held a wine gourd in his hand. He raised his head and took a sip of wine. He wiped the wine stains from his mouth with his hand and yelled at Lin Yi in the carriage.
"Damn it, Xiao Linzi, you lied to me again. You said you came here tonight to do good things, but it turns out you asked me to fight! I have fought so many fights and killed so many people for you... Hehe, but I like killing people.
Should we kill them tonight..."
Lin Yi smiled and said: "Brother, please be patient. The prime minister is a rich man and will not fight with us. This is a misunderstanding. There is no grudge or enmity. There is no need to go to war and both parties will suffer..."
Lin Yi actually said this to Prime Minister Lu. He wanted Prime Minister Lu to weigh the pros and cons.
Because Lin Yi knew that Mr. Lu was a smart man.
Su Qinghou and Wang Huihui suddenly appeared, which was really unexpected by Prime Minister Lu.
No wonder Lin Yi is confident.
Now that Su Qinghou and Wang have returned, plus Zeng Tengyun, he really has no chance of winning.
Hong En whispered to Mr. Lu again: "Mr. Prime Minister, this is 'Zhu Bajie' who is looking forward to his return. He has unrivaled martial arts skills. The other one is the Marquis of Wu, Su Qinghou..."
Zhu Bajie's famous name, Mr. Lu, has long been heard of, but he has never seen Wang Guihui. But Su Qinghou and Mr. Lu had seen him before.
Eleven years ago, Prime Minister Lu was not the prime minister of the dynasty, and his official position was only of the third rank. Once he visited Du Qingwen, and Su Qinghou happened to be a guest in the Du Mansion. The two met under Du Qingwen's introduction. Du Qingwen hosted a banquet together, and the three of them drank wine.
Rejoice together. At first, Prime Minister Lu admired Su Qinghou very much.
Su Qinghou and Wang Guihui came closer.
Su Qinghou looked at Prime Minister Lu with his hands behind his back and said: "Prime Minister, we said goodbye to the Du Mansion eleven years ago. I really didn't expect that when we meet again, we will become tense. This is what I don't want to see."
In order to show respect for Su Qinghou, Prime Minister Lu dismounted.
The twelve demon guards behind him also dismounted.
Prime Minister Lu waved his hands towards the Twelve Demon Guards again, and they all removed their hands from the handles of their weapons.
Prime Minister Lu looked at Su Qinghou and said with some emotion: "I still vividly remember the time when I had wine and fun with the Marquis and Lord Du. I didn't expect that the Marquis would also come tonight."
Su Qinghou said: "My son-in-law was seriously injured by Linghu Zanghun. Wang Hui and I have to protect him. Prime Minister, all this is actually a misunderstanding. For my sake, please forgive me.
one side."
Su Qinghou's tone was neither humble nor overbearing, and his expression was calm and composed.
Then he glanced at the twelve silver-faced demon guards behind Xiang Lu.
Judging from his expression, he didn't take the Twelve Demon Guards seriously at all.
Prime Minister Lu said: "Whether it is a misunderstanding or not, I have to have a good talk with your son-in-law."
Su Qinghou said: "Then the prime minister should have a good talk with Lin Yi first. If the prime minister wants to talk to him alone, we can avoid it."
Prime Minister Lu said: "Aren't you afraid that I will be disadvantageous to Lin Yi by avoiding it?"
Su Qinghou said: "I believe that the Prime Minister is a good person. I, Su Qinghou, look at people and will never make mistakes."
Prime Minister Lu said: "Then I will talk to him alone."
Lin Yi waved his hands to Hu Yanyu'er and the others. Hu Yanyu'er and several southern border masters entered the forest. Su Qinghou and Wang Huihui also entered the forest.
Prime Minister Lu asked the twelve demon guards to step back a few dozen feet.
Only Lin Yi and Lu Xiang were left in the field.
Prime Minister Lu walked to the carriage.
He and Lin Yi were only two feet apart.
Now he can kill Lin Yi just by taking action.
Prime Minister Lu looked at Lin Yi with even deeper eyes.
Prime Minister Lu said: "I can also do some kung fu."
Lin Yi said: "I think Mr. Xiang is not only good at ordering."
Mr. Lu said: "I know a lot, but it's hard to be elegant. But you are seriously injured now. If I want to kill you, it will be easy. Mr. Hou and Wang will not have time to save you when they return. Are you afraid?"
Lin Yi said: "I'm not afraid. Because like Mr. Hou, I believe in Mr. Xiang as a human being. Also, I have no evil intentions in my heart. Because this is just a misunderstanding. I would rather try my best to resolve the misunderstanding than become your enemy, Mr. Xiang."
Prime Minister Lu said in a teasing tone: "Misunderstanding? Do you really think I believe that Zuo Chaoyang broke into the prime minister's house at night on a whim?"
Lin Yi said: "The prime minister wouldn't believe it, because I wouldn't believe it either. It's just nonsense."
Prime Minister Lu stared at Lin Yi and said slowly: "Since you admit that it is nonsense, then you can clear up the confusion. I hope your explanation can satisfy me."
