Ling Tianyun's intuition was always very accurate. He looked inside the courtyard walls on both sides and found that there was nothing suspicious. However, he clearly felt that the prying eyes from the dark had been falling on him. This gave him a very special feeling.
He felt uncomfortable, but he could not find the place to peek, which made him extremely frustrated. Zhao An and Ma Chenghui behind him did not feel like this. They curiously looked at this deep and endless path.
The alley, as well as the red ribbon hanging on the dead branches, is extremely quiet, and a peaceful atmosphere permeates the alley.
Reluctantly, he looked around again, but Ling Tianyun still didn't find anything. He shouted and led the horse, and the two of Zhao continued to move forward. The dazzling sunlight shone directly from the gaps between the mottled branches, and the trees under their feet
The dead leaves are as soft as cotton, and this long alley is like a long path paved with cotton. Except for the rustling of dead leaves under their feet, there is no other sound. The sun shines on them, but they cannot
Dispel the strong gloomy atmosphere in this alley.
The back door is as deep as the sea. Which wealthy family does not have a few ghosts of tragic deaths in the backyard, and which wealthy family does not have a period of conversation after dinner. Ling Tianyun was walking in front, and he asked Zhao An from time to time about the two sides of the alley.
Regarding the courtyard mansion, Zhao An is actually a real Bianliang Tong, but he also knows about such a gloomy alley. Who owns the courtyard mansion within the courtyard walls on both sides, and what anecdotes happened in the past?
He can tell you who the current owner is, and he knows everything about the house.
Ling Tianyun didn't have much interest in the other large households within the walls of the two courtyards, but he didn't understand why Master Feng Dao and Feng Taishi moved his family's mansion into the home of the important minister who gathered dozens of ghosts.
Regarding Feng Dao, Ling Tianyun also heard from his father, Ling Duozhi, that he commented that the city was too deep, so he took advantage of the situation. To put it bluntly, he was just a grass on the wall, and the wind blew it to both sides. But what Ling Duozhi hated the most was not
The behavior of Grand Master Feng was a fool, but Feng Dao actually agreed with the previous Jin Dynasty's move to recognize thieves as their fathers, and ceded the Yanyun Ten States to the Khitan. So far, the natural barrier of the Central Plains Xiongguan has been given to the Khitan, and there is only one guard at Yanmen Gate.
Looking at the great rivers and mountains of the Central Plains.
Ling Tianyun's feeling was correct. In the courtyard where the dead branches with red ribbons were located, there was a three-story attic. In that attic sat an old man with white hair and a childlike face. That old man was Taishi Feng. He
His deep gaze looked towards the alley outside the courtyard wall, and his gaze fell on Ling Tianyun through the gaps between the mottled dead branches. His wise eyes showed a bit of interest.
The colors are bright, and his playful expression is even more obvious.
"Master, do you want me to go and test it out?" A cold and fierce young man standing quietly behind him said to Master Feng. There was a strong fighting spirit in the young man's eyes. In the young man's hand, he held a handful of
A big bow that smelled like a bloody evil spirit, and a quiver full of arrows was carried on his back.
"I didn't expect this kid to find out here so quickly. Then Zhao Xiang'er has no one to use at the moment, so he can only be used. It's interesting and interesting, but I don't know how capable that kid is. This Feiqiao camp is already in disarray. Now it's time to
Fa, I’ll give you a big gift, haha.”
Master Feng didn't seem to hear the young man's words. He murmured to himself. The young man behind him did not show any displeasure, and his eyes showed incomparable awe. But the young man
He couldn't help but hold the long bow in his hand tighter, and his eyes followed Grand Master Feng's and fell directly on the leading young man in black clothes who was walking slowly in the alley.
"Go ahead and stop as soon as you see fit. There's no need to make too much noise. That kid is still useful to me, so don't hurt him. Guo Que'er, Guo Que'er, your end is coming, and my end is coming too.
, This world no longer belongs to us. Seeing those young people struggling, we should also retreat."
As soon as the young man heard Taishi Feng's words, he immediately stood up from the attic and floated down like a flying swallow falling into the forest. However, he did not hear what Taishi Feng said behind him. He only saw a flash of light from the long bow in his hand, and that
The body energy suit made a hunting sound in the air, but when he landed on the ground, it didn't bring up any dust.
Ling Tianyun looked at this long alley, and some inexplicable thoughts came to his mind. He didn't understand why this alley was so narrow. There were Hou Men's Courtyard on both sides, and this alley had blind spots on both sides. Press
From a strategic perspective, if an accident occurs in this alley, there is no way to escape.
However, when Ling Tianyun first had that weird idea in his mind, he couldn't help but shudder, and an inexplicable coldness felt on his back. A strong uneasiness suddenly surged into his heart, making him unable to help but condense his energy all over his body.
, when his true energy had just condensed and the true energy around his body was turning, he felt that he was more sensitive to the surroundings.
"Whoops!" Just when Ling Tianyun was alert, a harsh sound pierced through the air suddenly reached his ears. An omen came to his mind, and when he looked up, he saw an arrow faster than lightning coming from behind.
He shot towards them from the courtyard. The arrow carried a strong killing intent and locked him tightly. Through the gaps between the dead branches, a whistling and harsh sound was heard, like a rainbow piercing the sun, towards them.
Ling Tianyun came from the back of his vest.
"Lie down." Ling Tianyun's heart was shocked. He didn't expect that he would be attacked just as he had that weird thought in his mind. With a backhand move, the heavy 'Xingze' on his back was suddenly in his hand. And he moved toward
Zhao An and Ma Chenghui shouted, from the angle of the arrow, he could clearly know that the assassin must be in this courtyard, and he had a clear grasp of their situation from a high position. That's why he asked Zhao An and Ma Chenghui
The two shouted, asking them to lie down at the corner. The corner was a blind spot and the assassin hiding in the courtyard should not be able to see it.
"Zheng", just as the lightning flashed and the fire flashed, Ling Tianyun raised his sword and slashed towards the incoming arrow, just hitting the arrow's head. Suddenly there was a huge recoil.
Power surged from the arrow, causing Ling Tianyun's right hand to tremble, and the sword in his hand almost came out. Such a powerful force, Ling Tianyun was even more shocked. He did not expect that there is such a powerful archer in this world.
, he felt that his arm strength was strong enough, but he did not expect that a counterattack force even stronger than his would penetrate from an arrow.
His heart trembled slightly, Ling Tianyun ignored the two people who fell in the corner at that moment. He blocked the arrow that was shooting quickly with the sword in his hand, and the arrow was silent.
He fell on the withered leaves. His right hand trembled slightly, and the counterattack force brought by the arrow was removed, but there was still a faint pain in his tiger's mouth. Ling Tianyun kept running his true energy, pushing himself
Maximizing his senses. He looked around with vigilant eyes from time to time, and listened carefully to any sounds in his ears.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh", three more long arrows that shot through the air were shot down from the sky, but these three arrows shot towards his chest in a glyph shape. The sound of whistling through the air,
The harsh hissing sound made Ling Tianyun's heart tighten even more. He did not expect that the opponent's arrow skills were so accurate and that he could be easily found through the mottled dead branches. Looking at the three arrows, they were holding the power of shattering the sky and the earth.
Ling Tianyun was not afraid of the arrows, and he held up the sword in his hand to protect himself tightly.
"Zheng, Zheng, Zheng!" After three crisp sounds, the three long arrows fell silently, and then, Ling Tianyun felt that the terrifying and strong killing intent suddenly disappeared without a trace. Ling Tianyun let out a long breath,
He couldn't help but secretly say that he was lucky. If the other party shot a few more arrows, he would have no choice but to run around. It was obvious that the assassin hiding in the dark was only targeting him alone, but did not have any intention to Zhao An and Ma Chenghui.
A sneak attack. But he didn't understand why the secret assassin only shot four arrows at him and then fled, as if he had never appeared.
"Get up, let's leave here first." Ling Tianyun said calmly to Zhao An and Ma Chenghui who were hiding in the corner. The arrow that shot down just now was faster than lightning and faster than thunder, and it really frightened these two people.
Come on. If there are a few more such archers ambushed in the nearby courtyard, then the three of them will most likely be shot by long arrows into three hedgehogs. Walking in this alley like this
It's dangerous, no wonder no one wants to pass through this alley.
The pace of the three of them became faster, and the sneak attack arrows no longer appeared. Ling Tianyun frowned. He clearly felt a strong killing intent, but the opponent only shot four arrows and then stopped taking action.
.Obviously the other party did not want to kill him, it should be said that it was just a test. But why they chose to test in such a place, no outsiders knew the purpose of their trip, only Zhao Kuangyin and the core figures in the Zhao family knew it.
.
Ling Tianyun couldn't understand why they stayed under the dead branch tied with a red ribbon for a moment before attracting other people's attention. But the first arrow clearly had a strong killing intent.
, why the three arrows at the back were hit so easily. Could this have something to do with the master of the courtyard, Grand Master Feng? Ling Tianyun had a doubt in his mind. He had no interaction with Grand Master Feng at all.
Zhao An and Ma Chenghui were still in shock, and followed Ling Tianyun cautiously. They looked behind them from time to time, fearing that a few arrows would be shot from behind. But their worries were unnecessary, and they walked out of the deep narrow space.
After entering the alley, the assassin never made another move.
Looking at the wide street in front of them, lined with restaurants and shops, their hearts settled down. And an elegant courtyard building not far to their right suddenly appeared in front of them. They saw the courtyard standing in front of the door.
There were two listless young men in front of them. They kept yawning as if they hadn't slept well all night.
"Linyan Pavilion", Ling Tianyun couldn't help but read as he looked at those big characters like dragons and phoenixes. Zhao An behind him lit up his eyes, "This Linyan Pavilion is the largest brothel in Bianliang City.
, all the dignitaries in the city will come here to party and drink. The most important thing is that the girls here are talented, beautiful, gentle and lovely. If I can have a romantic night here, I will have no regrets in this life, tsk tsk."
"You have a body like yours, but you still want to live happily in this brothel. The next morning, you can walk on the wall while holding on to the wall." Ma Chenghui immediately joked to Zhao An. When they left the alley, they seemed to have forgotten the shocking scene just now.
The two began to joke with each other again. This made Ling Tianyun very speechless. Ma Chenghui was obviously a veteran in the romance field, but Zhao An was just a young boy who had never been in a brothel. What he said about the brothel was just that.
Just hearsay.
"Old Ma, don't tell me. I heard that all the girls in Linyan Pavilion have special skills, and they seem to have some kind of charm to charm the guests who have been there.
. Or why is this the largest gold-selling cave in the imperial capital? There are singing and dancing here every night, and the bones are eroded, it is simply a paradise." Zhao An immediately retorted.
As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention. When Ling Tianyun heard Zhao An's words, his heart suddenly shook, as if he had caught something. He hurriedly said to Zhao An: "What did you just say?"
"This is Paradise, why don't you, Mr. Ling?" Zhao An showed doubts in his eyes and told Ling Tianyun again.
"The previous sentence," Ling Tianyun said to Zhao An again. He didn't pay much attention to Zhao An's words just now, but there was a very sensitive word in Zhao An's words that seemed to catch something in his heart. And Zhao An returned to his original words.
