Chapter 98: King Lin secretly helps the hell monk (3)
The figure appearing next to Miaoxue looked even more ethereal in the smoke.
Miao Xue noticed this figure hidden in the smoke. The knife in his hand was about to slash to the right, and a voice came to Miao Xue's ears.
"Brother Miaoxue, I am Lin Yi, walking from the southeast."
Only then did Miao Xue realize that the person who was secretly helping him was actually Lin Yi.
No wonder no one noticed the move.
Miao Xue did not expect that Lin Yi was actually here.
Miaoxue sheathed her knife, turned around, and headed southeast.
That figure was none other than Lin Yi.
The fire was set by Lin Yi, and the arrows shot at Lu Ba and the others were also shot by Lin Yi.
Lin Yi secretly tried his best to help Miao Xue get out of trouble.
After Miaoxue left, Lu Ba, Wu Lie and the weird man also chased after her. But Miaoxue's figure could still be seen in the smoke. At this time, a guard called out, saying that he saw a figure heading northeast. Three
People chased in that direction.
In fact, the figure heading northeast is Lin Yi, just to confuse everyone.
Lu Ba and the other three chased him out of the house but did not see the shadow of Miao Xue again.
I can only return in frustration.
The weirdo returned to his place of residence first, while Lu Ba and Wu Lie returned to their original places.
Around the toilet, raging fire and smoke filled the air. There were people killed and injured by Miaoxue everywhere. Many seriously injured people screamed in pain. Some of the others were treating the injured and some were putting out the fire.
It seems noisy and chaotic.
Lu Ba and Wu Lie also saw Lin Yi.
Lin Yi stood there with his hands behind his back. There was a man lying at his feet. The man was wearing night clothes and his body was dripping with blood. His body seemed to be still squirming.
Lu Ba and Wu Lie walked up to Lin Yi.
Wu Lie said in a strange and resentful tone: "Golden-faced guard, why didn't I see you when we besieged the hell monk?"
Lin Yi glanced at Wu Lie.
Wu Lie's clothes were burned in several places by the fire, and there was still smoke. His face was also blackened by the smoke. There was blood flowing out of his shoulders and left ribs, which were injured by Miao Xue's knife.
He looked very embarrassed.
Lin Yi said in a teasing tone: "Master Wu, I came here to attend the banquet on behalf of the emperor, and I didn't come here to hear your blame. Besides, I didn't know that so many of you would let the assassin escape."
Wu Lie immediately did not dare to say any more.
Lin Yi came here on behalf of the emperor, so it would be disrespectful for him to complain.
Moreover, it is really embarrassing that so many people surrounded Miaoxue and allowed her to escape.
Lu Ba had a dark face and said nothing. He also had a stab wound on his left arm.
Lu Ba guessed that the golden-masked guard might be Lin Yi, so he couldn't say anything in person.
Lin Yi added: "I originally wanted to see what kind of person this assassin was, but I found that someone secretly set a fire and killed and wounded the guards. They were two men in black, and their martial arts were not weak. One ran away, and I caught the other.
"As he spoke, Lin Yi kicked the man in black at his feet. "You might as well examine it."
As soon as the fire started, Lu Ba and Wu Lie knew that Miao Xue had an accomplice inside.
Unexpectedly, one of them was caught by the golden-masked guard.
They want to see who is responsible.
Wu Lie angrily stepped forward and pulled up the man in black who was lying on the ground, making him face him. Unexpectedly, the man in black twitched twice, blood gushed out of his mouth, and he died.
The face of the man in black was bloody and burned, so it was difficult to identify who he was.
Lin Yi said to Wu Lie: "Master Wu, he already suffered half a breath, you should be gentler. Now he's better, half a breath is gone."
Wu Lie angrily threw the body of the man in black on the ground.
There were so many casualties, but Miao Xue was still allowed to run away. Lu Ba was so ashamed and angry that he broke the steel sword in his hand and threw it on the ground. Then he opened his mouth and a wisp of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Lu Ba was so angry that he vomited blood.
Lin Yi could also understand Lu Ba's mood at this moment, but how could he not save Miao Xue.
Lin Yi had previously decided that if it was difficult to help Miao Xue out of trouble by secretly helping her, he would even expose his identity and fight side by side with Miao Xue to break out of the siege.
In short, Miaoxue must not be allowed to die here.
Fortunately, with secret help, Miao Xue managed to escape. Lin Yi was not exposed, and even arrested someone to change his clothes for a while.
Now, both Lu Ba, Wu Lie and Lin Yi wanted to know whether Li Chao was alive or dead. So the three of them came to the house where Li Chao was. Outside the house, a crowd of people stood in darkness.
There were officials and masters from the Western Regions, as well as officials attending the banquet.
And Shangguan Minghong.
He stood leaning against a tree.
Everyone is waiting for news.
Waiting for news of Li Chao's death or survival.
Li Chao's life and death were closely related.
An official told the three people that Prime Minister Lu was using ancestral methods to save Li Chao. But the situation was not optimistic. Therefore, no one was allowed to disturb him and no one was allowed to make any noise.
Lu Ba and Wu Lie also stood aside and waited for the news.
Now the two of them can only hope that Li Chao can save his life.
Otherwise, their sin will be great.
Lin Yi walked to the tree erected by Shangguan Minghong and stood side by side with him.
Shangguan Minghong said in a low voice: "Brother, I really didn't expect you to be the golden-faced guard. I'm really happy for you to be favored and used by the emperor."
Lin Yi said: "I didn't expect that I could become a golden-faced guard. I'm also happy for you, brother. You are now the leader of the Five Tiger Generals, with hundreds of officials following you, and you are also the pillar of our dynasty. Feng Liancheng was also the leader back then.
It’s hard to compare with you, brother.”
Shangguan Minghong said: "Brother, I don't seek fame or fortune, I only want to serve the country and be loyal to the emperor. By the way, dear brother, you made great achievements in Fengxiang. I said that I would ask the emperor to recruit you as an official in the court in the future, but you are not willing to do it."
Official. Why did you come back to be a gold-faced bodyguard again? What made you change your mind... Now that you and I are serving as officials in the same court, it is really a gratifying thing. Go to my house tomorrow and let us two brothers have a good celebration.
"
Shangguan Minghong looked quite excited.
Lin Yi looked at Shangguan Minghong's happy expression and said, "I will pay a visit to my eldest brother's house when I have free time. To be honest with you, I am coming back for something important this time."
Shangguan Minghong said: "Oh...can you tell me?"
Lin Yi said: "Someone wants to harm me, and various signs indicate that it is most likely someone from the court. I came back just to find out about this matter."
This shocked Shangguan Minghong, and his voice dropped even lower.
"Can we find out the identity now?"
Lin Yi said: "There is no clue."
Shangguan Minghong pondered for a moment and said: "I guess it's probably the remnants of King Dong and King Kang. Back then, brother, you were the golden-faced guard and pulled out the two kings with your own hands. It must be the remnants of the two kings who want to avenge their masters, so they harmed our brothers."
Lin Yi nodded and said: "Brother is right, it is probably the remnants of the two kings who are causing trouble. I will find out the remnants of the two kings."
Shangguan Minghong said angrily: "I will also secretly help you investigate, brother. Once I find out who it is, I will not let him go. If you are against me, brother, you are an enemy of me."
Lin Yi said gratefully: "Thank you very much, brother!"
At this moment, a figure fluttered in clothes from the air.
Then when he reached the top, the man fell down into the courtyard as lightly as if he were stepping on an invisible ladder.
His extraordinary lightness skills moved everyone present.
