"Hmph! When did I say that the operation failed?"
At this time, the "Sixth Village Master" actually looked calm.
"What? Isn't it?"
The leader of the fifth village frowned.
It is an indisputable fact that a disciple of Mount Paektu fell from the sky, unless the sixth brother slaps himself in the face and changes his story and says that he is not a disciple of Mount Paektu.
"Fifth brother, Cunning Rabbit still has three caves. You don't think I only have one plan, do you?"
The leader of the Six Villages said calmly:
"It's true that the disciple of Mount Paektu fell, but there were mistakes and wrong moves. As long as she is okay, Mount Paektu's wrath can be avoided. As for this operation,... we don't necessarily have to catch her."
The leader of the Sixth Village said with a sneer on his face, and turned his head to look in another direction. Amidst the clatter of horse hooves, a fully armored soldier from the Han Dynasty suddenly appeared in their sight.
Seeing this soldier from the imperial court, the leader of the Five Villages was astonished.
The "Sixth Village Master" had a smile on his face. His eyes fell on a four-inch long hollow steel needle held in the palm of the soldier. On the top of the hollow steel needle, a drop of bright red blood shimmered slightly...
…
"You can go now."
The leader of the Six Villages flicked his sleeves and stepped forward to greet him.
…
In the northwest corner of Pingchuan City, Bai Shengming was lying on the ground, with crowds surrounding him in circles. Two middle-aged men in white robes with stern faces were extremely conspicuous.
"how's it going?"
Lu Ling said hurriedly.
"The lady has taken the healing medicine and is now sleeping."
The two guards of Mount Paektu recognized Lu Ling as the daughter of the lord of Pingchuan City.
"But did you injure your internal organs?"
Yang Jidao.
There were not many injuries on Bai Shengming's body. Except for a small blood stain on his left chest, the rest was not obvious. Yang Ji was a little worried that he might have fallen from the air and injured his internal organs.
"Who are you?"
The two Baektu Mountain guards looked wary.
Now, except for the soldiers of the imperial court, they are wary of anyone dressed as a candidate. After all, the young lady was injured in the martial arts hall, and there are all candidates there.
"Don't worry! His name is Yang Ji. He was the one who shot the arrow that hit the eagle and saved your lady."
Lu Ling explained quickly.
The two looked at each other, slightly relieved.
"That's it, thank you very much."
The two of them said, looking much more polite.
They all saw the three arrows Yang Ji shot at the giant eagle before. They didn't expect the young man in front of them.
"The lady's internal organs did receive some shock, but it was not serious. We also checked her, and except that her blood was a little thinner, there was nothing else abnormal. I just don't know why, but she hasn't woken up yet."
The two frowned.
"Could it be that the green forest expert restrained some of her acupuncture points?"
Lu Ling said.
"It's not like that."
The two shook their heads and denied together: "The young lady's breathing is normal and does not seem to be under control."
Yang Ji frowned and was silent in thought.
"I know why he's unconscious!—"
Suddenly a voice came from behind.
"Lu Youxiang!"
Yang Ji turned his head in surprise. He saw Wang Xian, Lu Youxiang, Shen Tong and others rushing over from behind. Several of them were covered in scars and their clothes were stained with blood. They had obviously experienced another fierce battle.
"Previously, I saw a soldier from the imperial court waving to her. It was when Bai Shengming reached his side that he suddenly collapsed."
Lu Youxiang said hello to Yang Ji without showing off, and said directly.
"What!"
The two Baektu Mountain guards were shocked. Before they could say anything, a group of soldiers nearby became angry immediately.
"What are you talking about?"
"How could someone from the imperial court harm her?"
"If we really want to harm her, how can we save her?"
"Do you know what you're talking about?!"
…………
Everyone looked at Lu Youxiang and glared angrily. The soldiers of the imperial court were responsible for patrolling the city and maintaining public order. Lu Youxiang actually said that it was them who caused the accident, and everyone was so angry that they wanted to beat him.
"It is impossible for people from the imperial court to attack Bai Shengming."
Wang Xian put his hands behind his back and suddenly said.
"Prince!"
Only then did the soldiers notice Wang Xian next to them. Wang Xian came from a military family, and he and the soldiers were naturally separated from each other, so he was quite prestigious in the army.
"Young Master Wang is right. It is impossible for our people to attack her."
A soldier said.
"However, what Lu Youxiang said is not wrong."
Wang Xian glanced at Lu Youxiang next to him and said:
"So there is only one possibility. The person who injured Bai Shengming was not a real imperial soldier."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.
Yang Ji and Lu Ling frowned and remained silent. The meaning behind Wang Xian's words was that someone had worn the imperial armor and infiltrated into the army.
If this is true, this is no small matter.
"The Wu Palace is the examination room for this martial arts examination. No one else is allowed to enter except for the candidates. If what Lu Youxiang saw is correct, this can also explain why there are so many people in a place that only candidates can enter.
There are so many gangsters.”
Yang Ji pondered for a while and then said.
He had always felt strange as to why there were so many killers mixed into the Martial Palace. And some of them were obviously older than the candidates for the "Tongsheng Examination". But the scene was in chaos at that time, and he had no time to think about it.
After listening to Lu Youxiang's words, many problems were immediately solved by analogy.
"This matter is no small matter. If it is true, I'm afraid there will be an investigation in the army."
Wang Xian was silent for a moment and then said.
Only he could say this kind of thing here. The other soldiers had already looked ugly. At this time, the sound of horse hooves came from behind.
"It's the Captain!"
Everyone turned around and saw a torrent of steel as black as ink, rolling in on the flying dust. The leading "knight" was of extraordinary majesty, his eyes were like daggers and lightning, and he was riding a tall horse, leading everyone to gallop in.
.
"Join the Captain!"
Everyone saluted one after another.
"No need."
The captain turned over and dismounted. His eyes fell on Bai Shengming and he said solemnly: "How is it?"
To be continued...
