Chapter 396: After One Wave, Another Wave Arises
Rumble——
After a series of thunderous explosions, the ice sheet fell into deathly silence.
The Washington convoy retreating to the rear also stopped at this time. The more than thirty guards stared at the scarlet red on the ice with their eyes filled with horror.
In the carriage, Hua Junchen did not urge the guards to escape. After all, with the opponent's skills, even if they were allowed to run ten miles first, they would die or die, and there was no point in escaping.
In the past, people from the Jianghu in the Northern and Southern Dynasties called Ye Jingtang the Night King of Hell. Hua Junchen thought that it was derived from his status as the commander of the black government office, and it happened to be matched with bull heads and horse noodles. It was considered a contemptuous nickname.
Only then did he understand that the six evil spirits of the black yamen were fake ghosts, and the man in black robe in the distance was actually the real King of Hell. Person No. 31 was torn apart in an instant, and the only one left with a whole body was Shi Daoyu, who might be the real King of Hell. Not so cruel.
Hua Junchen subconsciously touched his neck, and now he was just grateful to have given birth to a good daughter.
If he hadn't been pulled by his daughter, he would have run over and jumped left and right, not to mention the distance of thirty feet, but even one mile away, whether he should have been cut into pieces or not. Maybe after the killing, the King of Hell would have doubted in his heart - Eh? Why is there an extra head...
Hua Qingzhi was sitting at the car window, her red lips slightly open and full of surprise. Although she had seen Young Master Ye's extraordinary martial arts, she really didn't expect Ye Jingtang to kill so decisively. It was just a blur in front of her eyes, and dozens of people She lay down so quickly that she didn't even feel the bloody horror.
The father and daughter were watching blankly beside the carriage. Before they could recover, the man in black robe on the ice field in the distance turned his head and looked here.
? !
"hiss--"
"Run, run..."
With just a glance back, the dead motorcade came back to life. The thirty-odd guards were in chaos, even the horses' pace was disordered, and there were signs of crowding.
Hua Junchen's face turned pale in an instant. As a native of Beiliang, he bumped into the orphan of King Tianlang here. If the other party wants to silence him, dozens of them can start thinking about their journey in the world. Everything they do is in vain and they commit suicide. Maybe the whole body can be left.
But with his daughter in the car, Hua Junchen, the father, was no longer able to resist, but he still mustered up the courage to go out and negotiate with her with his sword in hand.
But fortunately, the black-clothed King of Hell did not come over to call his name.
Ye Jingtang hung the package on his waist and turned to look at the motorcade a few miles away.
Although he was far away, with the help of the lights in the carriage, he could still vaguely see the dumbfounded scholarly lady.
In fact, Ye Jingtang discovered the Hua family's motorcade before taking action, but Shi Daoyu and others came from the other side at almost the same time, and he didn't want to delay his business, so he ignored it.
Now that the matter has been settled, it is logical that he should go over and say hello, but they are in two different countries and have different positions. He just killed dozens of people, and now he is going to scare the Chinese family half to death.
When Ye Jingtang saw a look, the Washington convoy was already in disarray, and gave up the idea of scaring people in the past. They just looked at each other from afar and Hua Qingzhi.
The distance between them was too far, Hua Qingzhi could only see the outline of Ye Jingtang's body clearly, but she could feel Ye Jingtang looking at her, and subconsciously glanced at her father beside her out of the corner of her eye.
Hua Junchen noticed the figure in black robes a few miles away and looked over. His mind was already racing. He couldn't think of paying attention to his daughter's expression. His heart strings were so tense that he felt like he was facing a powerful enemy. He even held his breath.
Fortunately, after one glance, the black-clothed King of Hell in the distance averted his gaze and walked towards the distance with his gun.
"call……"
Dozens of people inside and outside the carriage breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time. They didn't dare to say any nonsense at the moment and quickly detoured from the north side.
Cry, crow, crow...
Hua Junchen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. His legs were weak. He sat down next to the chess couch and said with lingering fear:
"This night of terror is truly worthy of its reputation... If dad hadn't been somewhat famous, we would have been in great trouble today..."
ha?
Lu Zhu was sitting across from him. When he heard this boastful words, he didn't know how to complain. He couldn't help but whispered:
"When the young lady was in Yun'an, she had contact with Duke Ye several times, and even gave him a pen. Duke Ye must have been open to the public for the sake of the young lady..."
Hua Qingzhi also didn't think that Ye Jingtang would be afraid of her father's three-legged cat kung fu, but she didn't think it was her own contribution either. She looked at the direction in which Ye Jingtang was going and said softly:
"The two countries are fighting each other, and each is his own master. Fighting the enemy bravely is to serve the country. How can we be selfish? We are just the people of Beiliang. As long as we don't take the initiative to participate, he will naturally not raise the butcher's knife against the people; if he really interferes, he will Even if you think about it, you won’t be open to one another just because of a chance relationship..."
Hua Junchen was still frightened. Hearing his daughter's words, he spoke again:
"Daliang destroyed the Northwest Royal Court. As the orphan of King Tianlang, if he kills people in Daliang on sight, he is not worth fearing. No matter how powerful he is, he is just a Southern Dynasty eagle dog.
"And if he has seen through it all and knows how to implement benevolent governance, treat all tribes in the West Sea and the people of Beiliang well, and only liquidate the imperial court, then he is following the 'kingly way' and is preparing for the future unification.
"Just say now, I met my father on the battlefield, gave face to the Hua family and left, then went to Beiliang, went to Hudong Road to ask for my father to debate the scriptures, should I defend my father or not?
"Even if I don't defend myself as a father, you and the outside guards have seen the scene of Ye Jingtang killing chickens to scare the monkeys. When the time comes, they will definitely say that Ye Jingtang kills in a controlled manner. It must be a generation of British masters to persuade my father..."
Hua Qingzhi blinked her eyes and felt that her father was more responsive than he thought. However, it was not easy for her daughter to say anything about such matters that were related to the family's position. She just said:
"Dad should discuss these matters with grandpa. If my daughter knows anything about it, she shouldn't talk about it here."
Hua Junchen was indeed suppressed by Night Terror Hall's terrifying methods. At this time, he felt a little confused and his words were not measured.
After his daughter reminded him, Hua Junchen remembered that the walls had ears, so he stopped talking. All he wanted to do was go to the Xihai Protector's Mansion to take shelter.
Hua Qingzhi sat at the window, her eyes fixed on the gradually disappearing figure on the ice field.
After watching it for a while, I suddenly discovered that there was another horse in the distance, with a tall chivalrous woman in black sitting on it, looking at her with a telescope.
?
Although Hua Qingzhi couldn't see clearly, the Queen's domineering figure was rare in both the Northern and Southern Dynasties, so she still felt a bit familiar.
Hua Qingzhi was slightly startled, and wanted to take a closer look to see if it was the Queen. The guards walking outside the carriage blocked her sight. When she looked back, the figure on the ice field could no longer be seen clearly...
——
Phew~
The night wind on the ice field blew gently, blowing the black skirt of the horse.
Dongfang Li's men and horses have long spears hanging on their sides, like a heroic female ranger walking alone on the ice field, looking at the scene in the distance with a telescope.
Seeing the domineering appearance of Ye Jingtang killing everyone, Dongfang Liren's eyes were already full of little stars, and he wished he could rush up and participate.
However, Ye Jingtang understood her depth and warned her not to act on her own initiative before going there. For this reason, she could only be obedient and wait here honestly.
Seeing Yanjing Hu Meizi in the motorcade in the distance, Dongfang Liren was really surprised. However, in this situation, she couldn't go over to say hello. She just watched the other party's reaction from a distance to see if he was surprised by her lover. .
Tap tap tap...
Soon, Ye Jingtang came back from the ice field. Although Feng Qingyun Dan had a handsome face and looked very imposing, he looked a bit weird with the spear on his shoulder.
Ye Jingtang had just rolled up the rope net with the roaring dragon gun, and then cut the rope. The large net rolled into a ball was naturally still wrapped around the tip of the gun.
If it were just an ordinary rope net, it would fall off as soon as it was rolled out, but Shi Daoyu's rope net is made of silver silk that has been soaked and has extremely strong stickiness and toughness. It was also tightened and glued together by dozens of people, and in a short time It couldn't be torn off at all, and sharpening it with a sword would only peel off a layer of skin on the barrel of the gun, so I could only hold it like this.
At this time, Ye Jingtang was walking with a spear on his shoulder, with a big white ball on the head of the spear, which looked like he was carrying an oversized lollipop.
Seeing this, Dongfang Liren got off his horse and came quickly:
"You're not hurt, are you?"
"They're just a bunch of bastards. They're just a warm-up at most. They're not going to get hurt."
Ye Jingtang stuck the dragon-screaming gun on the ice, lowered his head and kissed Benben's lips as a reward for himself.
Dongfang Liren saw that his lover was so powerful. At this time, the prince could no longer show off his aura. He stood pouting and tilted his head slightly to look behind, wanting to see if Hua Qingzhi was peeking, but unfortunately he couldn't see it.
Ye Jingtang kissed her affectionately. Seeing that Benben was so well-behaved, his old habit of pushing for the next step relapsed. He raised his hands around his waist, pinched the big voluptuous moon, and wanted to press it to the ground.
?
No matter how considerate Dongfang Liren was, there was a limit. When he realized that this pervert wanted the sky to be his quilt and the earth to be his bed, he raised his hand and pinched his waist, leaning back slightly:
"What do you want to do?"
Ye Jingtang quickly let go of his hand and smiled:
"I just finished the fight, and I'm a little confused with my energy and blood. I didn't want to do anything, haha... then, this is the Xue Huhua that I just snatched. I checked it on the way. It's genuine. It's just half a catty."
Because Dongfang Liren was in a good mood, he didn't care about it anymore. He picked up the jade box, looked at it, and hung it on the side of the horse:
"Hua Qingzhi was in the motorcade just now. Why don't you catch up and say hello?"
Night Terror Hall took the dragon-screaming gun and tried to remove the sticky net on it:
"I just looked at them and frightened the convoy to death. Now I can't scare them to death. It seems that they are going to the Xihai Protector's Mansion. I have to go anyway. Let's talk about it when I have a chance..."
When Dongfang Liren heard this, he pinched the waist of Ye Jingtang again:
"Do you really want to see Miss Hua?"
Ye Jingtang blinked, looked back at Da Benben, thought for a while and said:
"It's just normal communication. If His Highness is jealous, I won't go."
? ?
Dongfang Liren frowned and straightened up his fat-headed dragon to show the broad-mindedness that the queen should have:
"Will I be jealous? If you, a pervert like you, really have the ability to take her home, it would be easy for me to deal with her..."
Ye Jingtang felt that Benben was a little afraid of Hua Qingzhi. He didn't care much about Miss Hua. He didn't talk nonsense about this topic at the moment. He took out the dagger from Benben's waist and began to peel off the cocoon and unravel the web.
Dongfang Liren stood with one hand behind his back and looked at him. After a few glances, he frowned and said:
"Can't it be cut with a sword?"
When Ye Jingtang heard this, he paused slightly and pulled out the sword from his waist:
"This sword is indeed mysterious. I feel that if it is wasted like this, it will have to be used up."
Dongfang Liren squatted down beside him, took the dark gold sword and inspected it, but saw that the originally flawless blade was slightly darker than the previous few days, just like the metal had lost its luster:
"What...is going on?"
When Ye Jingtang killed Long Zhengqing last time, Shui'er discovered that the sword had a special texture and seemed to be corroded by blood, but she was not sure.
Just now he tried the sword with Shi Dao Yu, and he found something strange again, so he could confirm that there was indeed something wrong with this unparalleled sword with an edge that overflowed from the world. He responded:
"The craftsmanship of this sword is very strange. I don't know whether it will be corroded by blood and water, or whether it will be damaged by infusing energy to perform moves. Anyway, the durability is very low. If it is used randomly, it may turn into a piece of black iron after a few times."
"Ah?" Dongfang Liren liked this magic weapon very much. Hearing this, he frowned and said, "Can it be repaired? It can't be a disposable weapon, right?"
Ye Jingtang thought for a while: "If he knew the forging method, he might be able to repair it, but Linghu Guanzhi is dead, and he doesn't know how to restore it to its luster. He can only carry it with him as a life-saving talisman. Unless he is in a desperate situation, he can't. Use it.”
Dongfang Liren nodded, feeling very pity in his heart, but after thinking about it, he still acted like a master:
"The strength of a martial artist does not depend on magical weapons, but on one's own martial arts attainments. If a weapon is too strong, it will suppress one's own potential. This sword has flaws, so don't put life and death on it, just keep it as a spare. . After returning to Yun'an, I will find some famous casters to study it and then talk about it after I have figured it out."
Ye Jingtang has always followed the path of opening and closing. Even if he has access to both the inside and outside, he still prefers to use swords and guns. He does not have a strong demand for the sword itself. He nodded immediately and continued to peel off the rope net.
After Dongfang Liren hung the sword back on Ye Jingtang's waist, he stood up and held the spear to help.
Ye Jingtang worked for a while and found that the net was very sticky and difficult to peel off perfectly without damaging the gun barrel. After thinking about it, he took out the fire sickle and fire folding piece and tried to heat it to make the glue lose its stickiness.
This method is indeed possible, but the disadvantage is that there is no firewood on the ice sheet, the temperature is extremely low, the speed is extremely slow, and the firewood is simply not enough.
The Night Terror Hall was busy for a while, but before they could peel off the bonded mesh, the sound of flapping wings suddenly sounded in the night sky:
"Chi chi chi..."
Seeing this, Ye Jingtang stopped and looked up, only to see the bird flying back from the distance without landing. It circled back and forth in the sky twice before speeding towards the north again.
Seeing this, Dongfang Liren was puzzled and said:
"What's wrong?"
Ye Jingtang frowned: "There is a danger. It is estimated that Eunuch Cao is robbing other teams, and there is a fight. Come over quickly."
After Ye Jingtang finished speaking, he immediately got on his horse and pulled up Big Benben.
Dongfang Li and Li Xiang discussed and arranged for Eunuch Cao to come to Tianlang Lake. Today, King Zuo Xian sent dried snow lake flowers to Hudong Road. It was not surprising that Eunuch Cao would take action at this time.
If Eunuch Cao met the commander of Bai Xiaoying, Dongfang Liren wouldn't be too worried. Even if he couldn't defeat him, he could escape safely.
But if he accidentally met Xie Jianlan, Eunuch Cao would definitely die for the country.
Dongfang Liren grew up in the palace, and many martial arts were taught by Eunuch Cao. Even though he knew that he wanted to die, he still let him come because he couldn't come back from the shock on the night before. Someone had to rush to Tianlang Lake in advance to avoid I arrived late and was eaten up by Beiliang.
But now that Ye Jingtang has arrived in time, she naturally can't let an old man who has been loyal to the Dongfang clan for sixty years die worthless. She is holding the dragon-screaming gun, sitting behind Ye Jingtang and hugging her waist:
"How far is it?"
"It should be thirty or forty miles away, drive——"
Hoof-tapping hoof-tapping...
The charcoal-red horse immediately raised its front hooves and galloped towards the end of the ice field, chasing the birds that had already flown to the horizon...
