Chapter 2: Fireworks burst, killing begins
Above the gate of Jin 'an Royal Palace, Qian Xiaobai, a warrior in embroidered clothes, was walking among the patrol troops with a spear in his hand. The cold wind hit and he shivered slightly. He gently glanced at the lights outside the palace. Occasionally, pedestrians hurried past the gate of the Royal Palace from afar, afraid of causing trouble..
"Old Li, Old Zhang, why do you think our lives are so bitter? It's New Year's Eve, and we're on duty at the city gate. We're tired. It's New Year's Eve. Who dares to cause trouble at Jin 'an Palace? I hope someone blind can barge into the palace at night. I'll let him have a good taste of the spear in his hand and vent his anger..
"Money small white dissatisfied softly muttering way.
Next to him, an older, bearded soldier made a slight hush gesture.
"Little Qian, stop muttering. If the captain hears you later, be careful of being whipped again..
"Damn it, I can't bear to think that Da Bai has time to go to Spring Fragrance Restaurant to eat and drink. Right now, that kid is probably working on some girl's belly. It's a big festival, eating delicious food and drinking flowers in a warm brothel, and hugging two girls in his arms. Hey, even if he dies, it's worth it!" Qian Xiaobai was just about to enter the elegant world..
On the square in front of the main hall of the imperial palace, brilliant fireworks rose into the sky, and brilliant flowers bloomed in the air, reflecting colorful lights on the originally dark sky, like gods leaving colorful colors on black canvas..
A crystal snowflake falls with fireworks, snow falls.
God: The Tomb.
A strange accent sounded from outside the tower..
"Enemy attack, formation." The captain of Qian Xiaobai's patrol team had a bad feeling. He immediately mobilized his team to prepare to meet the enemy and activated the flare in his hand. The signal flares were not fired only by their team, but also from all directions of the palace. Obviously, the enemy attack came from all directions..
Qian Xiaobai and the soldiers did not see the enemy for a moment. In an instant, a delicate figure with a faint light floated into the air, as if it was a spirit body, heading straight for the team of soldiers..
"It's a yellow leather. Is it a demon?".
"There is a sharp eye in the team.".
"And two sickles in his claws..
"Archers ready, let go..
"The captain ordered, and the archers in the team immediately bent their bows and fired their arrows. The sharp arrows were accurately fired at the yellow skin. The yellow skin did not dodge in the air, and the arrows actually passed through the yellow skin..
"I'll do it!" The captain grabbed the bow from the Archer's hand and circulated his internal energy. He injected his strength into the arrow and pulled the bow like a full moon. The arrow flew through the air towards the yellow leather..
The arrow seemed to be a little scared and flew quickly. It dodged and arrived above the tower in the blink of an eye..
Then, it revolved around the armorer team. A demonic wind arose and formed a tornado around the armorers. Many wind blades flew out of the wind and attacked everyone. They could not attack the enemy. The armorer team was like fish on a chopping block waiting to be slaughtered..
The captain frantically raised his saber and slashed at the demon wind. Two sickles suddenly appeared in the wind and cut across the captain's neck. The captain could not dodge in time. Heads flew up and blood flew everywhere! After the captain died, the team was even more powerless to resist. Little White and the others fell one by one under the attack of the wind blades. When Little White died, his eyes were fixed on the outside of the Imperial City. All dissatisfaction, complaints, expectations, kinship, and glory disappeared..
There is a lake in the royal garden of the palace. I don't know if it was formed naturally or excavated by craftsmen. It is already the twelfth month of winter, and a thick layer of ice has formed on the lake surface..
There is an island in the middle of the lake. On the island, exquisite pavilions and pavilions stand, connected by stone bridges and water corridors on all sides..
There are many rockery trees around the lake. All kinds of precious flowers and plants have withered. Under the illumination of red lanterns, it presents another kind of dark beauty..
In an instant, many figures appeared from the hall, the rockery, and under the ice. They were all dressed in black night clothes and wore black masks to cover half of their faces. Their true faces were unknown..
The crowd dispersed and rushed in all directions of the palace..
All the soldiers, eunuchs and maids were killed. For a moment, the cries of killing, crying, begging for mercy and the sound of cutting off limbs with weapons were endless..
:.
Many assassins were experts. Ordinary soldiers in brocade clothes were like ordinary attendants and had no resistance. Just when the palace was in despair, an old eunuch with a stooped body and pale hair and wrinkles shouted and turned his hand into a claw to attack a person who was trying to kill him. The person wanted to block him with his sword, but the old eunuch's hand seemed extremely slow, but it was actually extremely fast. He grabbed the top of his head and died on the spot.
"What kind of rat dares to come to my Jin 'an Imperial Palace and act atrociously? I didn't expect this old servant to kill the enemy for my Jin' an Dynasty before I died..
"The old eunuch said in a hoarse voice. The internal energy in his body surged out of his body, straightening his hunched body. His hands formed claws, and his energy turned into an eagle shape. He actually contained the power of the Tao. Obviously, he had entered the realm of grandmasters..
"Rats, remember, the one who killed you is Jin An Old Slave Mu Chengen..
After saying that, Mu Chengen jumped out of thin air, as if blown by a cold wind. He stepped on the snow and attacked directly at the assassins without leaving any footprints. In an instant, five or six assassins were killed, and blood sprayed everywhere..
"Mu Sun 'er, bullying juniors is meaningless. Let me meet you..
"A tall bald man said loudly.
This person wore huge Buddhist beads and thick eyebrows with eagle eyes. Even if he wore night clothes, he could still be seen as a monk..
"An Qingsheng, Imperial Advisor of Dongxia, it seems that you are the one who came to cause trouble in Jin 'an today..
Mu Chengen saw the person's heart tremble, stopped his movements, adjusted his breath, and waited..
Obviously, to be able to make Mu Chengen, who was a martial arts grandmaster, pay so much attention to him, the person who came was at least a grandmaster..
"Far more than that..
Of course, you have no chance to explore. Being buried with Jin An is also a good ending for an old eunuch like you, hahaha..
An Qingsheng said, but his hand movements did not stop. He took off the prayer beads on his neck and broke the string. A total of eighteen prayer beads did not fall, but were dragged by Qi and circled around his chest..
An Qingsheng pushed out the prayer beads with both hands and chanted Buddhist sounds. Eighteen prayer beads were ejected with shocking energy..
Mu Chengen flew up and blocked the Buddha beads with his eagle claws. An Qingsheng stepped on the ground and shot out. The two fought together, and the energy flew everywhere. The old eunuch defended more and attacked less, so he was at a disadvantage. Obviously, his strength was not as strong as Dongxia Imperial Preceptor..
Mu Chengen saw the aura and retreated rapidly. His aura rose again, and a divine eagle appeared behind him, ready to soar into the sky..
"Eagle strikes the sky? Mu Xun 'er, you're going to fight for your life after just a few hits? You don't have a chance!" As soon as An Qingsheng finished speaking, a figure flashed across the sky in the distance. He held a longbow in his hand, and it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person. This person took out five arrows in a row, drew the bow, and shot out arrows in succession. His technique was so fast that ordinary martial artists could not see clearly..
Five consecutive arrows flew through the air, creating buzzing sounds as they rubbed against the air. There were five golden flying dragons hidden around the arrows. Each arrow was aimed at a vital point of Mu Chengen. The five arrows shot at different times hit Mu Chengen's protective aura at the same time..
A crisp cracking sound was emitted from the Stellar Energy..
Even Mu Chengen could only block three arrows, two of which pierced Mu Chengen's chest..
An Qingsheng also attacked the old eunuch. Mu Chengen spat out a mouthful of blood."Yuwen Yan, the God of Arrow of South Yue, it seems that South Yue is also involved. Even if this old servant dies today, I will drag one of you along with me!" As a martial arts grandmaster, Mu Chengen began to fight with his life, targeting An Qingsheng..
"Again, you have no chance..
An Qingsheng didn't confront him head-on, but fought while retreating. The old eunuch was hit by Yuwen Yan several times. When An Qingsheng was about to kill him, the old eunuch actually destroyed his anger and exploded with shocking momentum again..
"Forever protect Jin An!" The old eunuch shouted for the last time. A strong eagle-like Qi force flew out. Even An Qingsheng dared not be careless and prepared to take the old eunuch's fatal blow. However, the Qi force was not aimed at An Qingsheng, but at several other assassins in black nearby. Six assassins could not dodge in time and were killed on the spot..
After using this attack, the old eunuch lost all of his Qi and collapsed. Jin An and Mu Chengen died…
