Part Four, Chapter 33: The Eve of the Imperial Capital (Part 1)
The world of blood rain, the imperial capital.
On a huge flower boat, there is only one distinguished guest tonight.
On the top floor of the building, a thin man with a mustache and a silky robe was sitting cross-legged on the main seat, drinking comfortably. There was only an old man with gray hair next to him. The old man was sitting cross-legged, his breath completely restrained.
"Based on the time, people from the Black Lotus Sect should meet our Lord Fei's family tonight." The thin man stroked his beard, his eyes full of expectation, "I'm really looking forward to it, Lord Fei knows that he has only two relatives in the world.
Their expressions when they died must have been wonderful and interesting!"
The old man was silent and said nothing.
"Master Liu, do you think I've gone too far?" The thin man looked at the gray-haired old man.
"The weak prey on the strong. The people sent by the Black Lotus Sect are strong enough. It is natural for them to devour the ranks of Lord Fei's relatives." The gray-haired old man said, "Nothing is too much."
The thin man laughed loudly: "I really envy Master Liu's state of mind. No matter when and where he is, no matter what happens, he can be as calm as a mountain."
"Your Majesty, you have to cultivate your mind. If you want to achieve great achievements in martial arts, you must first have a strong mind." The gray-haired old man said, "If your mind is not strong enough, how can you perfectly control your body?"
"I can't do it."
The thin man shook his head, "After practicing for so many years, with so many famous teachers, and Master Liu teaching me, I am only a third-rate person."
"And there are more interesting things in this world than just martial arts. Life is only a hundred years long, so naturally you have to find something more interesting to do." The thin man had a strange look in his eyes as he drank the wine in his glass.
He obviously booked a flower boat, but rejected all the beauties. This is the willfulness of 'King Qi'.
…
"Drive, drive."
In the dark night, many Blood Rain Guards were riding horses in the dark night, surrounding their leader. The leader was a young man in a black robe with a stern face. The coldness he radiated invisibly made the surrounding men tremble with fear.
They all knew that their master was in a very bad mood at the moment.
"Sir, Mr. Wang and his three horses, they will definitely be able to catch up." The white-haired old man beside him said.
"Master Wang and his companions have chosen top-quality horses. They are traveling lightly. They are probably two hundred miles ahead of us at this moment. They will definitely be able to catch Master Fei and his companions." Another strong man also said.
The young man in black robe rode the horse without saying a word, but the coldness on his body became more intense.
if……
If my father and sister were both dead...
Many people will definitely die in the imperial capital! Anyone who you doubt will die!
"These madmen from the Black Lotus Sect are not afraid of me!" The young man in black robe said silently, "There must be someone behind the scenes who is taking advantage of these madmen from the Black Lotus Sect."
"Once I find out who is behind this, I, Fei Qing, will definitely let you know the consequences of offending me, Fei Qing!" The young man in black robe was furious. He had indeed arranged enough master guards for his father and sister's team.
In the eastern region of the empire, he was very confident that his father and sister would be fine.
But after leaving the Eastern Region, he was not sure, so he arranged a second wave of people in Tiezhong City. He believed that such a guard team would be enough to protect the old and the young.
Although there are fights among the top officials of the empire, there are also unspoken rules: no harm will come to the family!
After defeating the enemy, the enemy's family will decline, which will naturally be miserable. There is no need to sneak attack and assassinate the opponent's family early. This method is too tasteless and will cause many people to feel insecure.
Do not bring harm to your family, which is generally followed by all parties.
But in this world, there are always some people who don't abide by the unspoken rules! Fei Qing has too many enemies, and this time one of them took advantage of him.
******
At night, the Fei family team arrived at an outdoor inn, the Xianghe Inn.
"We'll spend the night at the inn today, and we'll rush to the imperial capital tomorrow." Butler Zhang Bo said to the guards.
"good."
The guards dismounted and began to enter the inn.
This Xianghe Inn occupies a large area and has a lot of manpower. In today's world, those who can open an inn in the wild are somewhat capable. But when the Fei family team took out a Blood Rain Guard Black Blood Token, this inn
He was very cooperative immediately and even helped coordinate to get other guests to give up their rooms to ensure that the Fei team got the rooms they wanted.
Many guest rooms are close together to protect Mr. Fei and Miss Fei.
Xu Jingming shared a guest room with the other two guards. After all, he was one of the few first-rate masters in the team and slept on the bed. The other two Blood Rain guards were both second-rate masters and simply made bunks on the ground.
"It will be easy once you get to the imperial capital."
"Let's just make do with it tonight."
Xu Jingming and the two Blood Rain Guards ate briefly, washed up, and went to bed early. Traveling long distances was really tiring, so Xu Jingming also chose to ‘smart hang up’, and his consciousness left the Blood Rain world.
In the blink of an eye, it was late at night, and the night wind was even colder.
"Shashasha..."
A group of people appeared quietly, looking at the inn in the distance.
"His Holiness." A spy knelt aside and reported respectfully, "I am sure that the Fei family team has checked into the 'Xianghe Inn' in front. In addition to the Fei family team, there are about 30 other guests at Xianghe Inn, as well as more than ten people in the inn itself.
Personal hand."
"Xianghe Inn? This inn is opened by the Xianghe Gang?" the black-haired man asked curiously.
"It's the inn built by the Xianghe Gang." The spy responded respectfully.
"The Xianghe Gang cooperated with our Black Lotus Sect last time." The black-haired man shook his head, "It's just today that we need to arrest the Fei family and his daughter, but there is no other way! I believe that the leader of the Xianghe Gang will understand us and just set fire to the inn and arrest them.
The Fei family father and daughter."
If you rush into the inn and attack by force, the losses will be relatively high. Although the Black Lotus Sect is said to be a madman, only a madman with a brain can make people fearful.
The Black Lotus Sect obviously wanted to capture the Fei family and his daughter with minimal losses.
"Yes." Everyone obeyed the order.
The disciples of the Black Lotus Sect surrounded him very skillfully, lurking carefully, and then lit the rockets one by one. The arrows of the rockets were soaked in flammable liquid. After lighting them, they immediately released arrows under the command.
Many rockets soared into the sky, bang bang bang!!!
Some shot on the wooden board, some shot on the haystacks outside the inn, and some shot into the stables, kitchen and other places behind the inn.
Many flammable materials in the inn, such as fodder, wood, cotton, etc., can quickly burst into flames. The inn building is mainly made of wood. Once the fire gets big, it will naturally sweep through the entire inn.
The huge flames in the dark night were reflected in the eyes of the Dharma King, but they were as calm as a cold pool. He ordered: "Come out and kill one by one. Except for the Fei family father and daughter, no one else will be spared!"
…
After Xu Jingming intelligently hung up.
The personal space martial arts training field has a virtual planet scene. There is only one life on this planet, Xu Jingming. At this moment, Xu Jingming is sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain, performing mind-training techniques, naturally feeling the flow of blood in his body and feeling the subtle changes in his body's metabolism.
He has made good progress in practicing the five volumes of marksmanship in the first part of "Huaguang". However, he cannot relax at all when it comes to spiritual practice. Xu Jingming has read the classics and knows very well...it is the mind that determines how far the path of evolution can go.
"Buzz." Suddenly a reminder came from the bloody world.
Xu Jingming suddenly opened his eyes and broke away from the mind-refining state.
"What's going on? Something happened?" Xu Jingming felt something bad. When his body in the world of blood and rain was sleeping, it was smartly hung up. Once he woke up, he would immediately receive a reminder and could enter the world of blood and rain as soon as possible.
According to Xu Jingming's estimation, there should be about five hours before it's time to get up and set off.
To wake up so early, something unexpected must have happened.
"Wow."
Xu Jingming didn't hesitate, an idea immediately entered the world of blood rain.
As soon as he entered, Xu Jingming found that he was already standing in the corridor on the second floor of the inn.
I have been busy all day today, so this chapter has fewer words. I will definitely write more in tomorrow’s chapter.
