Chapter 44 Coincidence

"Help? Qingzhao is neither an official nor a warrior. He has no power, no money, and he can't use swords, guns, swords and halberds. How can I help you? On the contrary, Qingzhao is very curious about one thing. Your mask is "black"

"Flower face with three pieces of tiles", this is the facial makeup of the Overlord of Qi and Chu in the opera. Although it is only half, but looking at the black and white color scheme, although there are many operas and different facial makeups, with this color matching and painting method, it is only the facial makeup of the Overlord of Qi and Chu." said

At this point, Li Qingzhao had already stood up. She looked at the person in front of her carefully, and then said, "I guess you are only wearing half of this mask because you hope to be as brave and unparalleled as the Overlord, but you don't want to make a tragic exit like him.

Therefore, the lower half of your face is you, and your success or failure depends on you. So, you are not a reckless person, so why do you do such an evil thing?"

Bang! Bang! Bang! In the quiet cabin, the masked man who was the only audience slowly stood up and applauded.

"As expected of you, Miss Li. It's just a pity that if you were a man, no one in this martial world would dare to show off your talent in front of you. But how do you know, girl, that I am not that vicious person?

A mask can mean nothing. After all, corrupt officials also believe in gods and Buddhas, and bandits and robbers also worship Guan Gong... Everything in the world is not simply straight or straight, nor is it black and white."

"Qingzhao really doesn't know, but I think the average thief wouldn't tell me so much. Moreover, Qingzhao is just an unknown person, but you know Qingzhao from your words. Doesn't this make people suspicious?"

"Hahahaha... Miss Li, your name is resounding throughout Qiantang. Everyone in the Jiangnan literati and poets knows about it. Why would an unknown person say this? Miss Li, you are being too modest."

Li Qingzhao took two steps, shook his head slightly and said, "He can be replaced! Xiang Yu, the overlord of Qi and Chu, raised his flag to attack Qin in the troubled times of the late Qin Dynasty. He split the land of Qin in a single battle and destroyed the Qin Empire's century-old foundation in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods in three years. It can be said that

Brave and good at fighting, he split the earth and made himself a king, commanded the princes, and called himself the Overlord, which was an unparalleled achievement. In the troubled times, Xiang Yu stood out and became the Overlord. Heroes appeared side by side, and heroes emerged in large numbers, but as a foil, he witnessed the history of his title.

"Xiang Yu's name is like a stormy sea, resounding in the ears of hundreds of generations of people from ancient to modern times. He is worthy of the word "hero"! If you wear this mask of an overlord, if you smile, you are an overlord who is defeated and honored, a true unruly hero." Li Qingzhao paused slightly.

He continued, "It's a pity that Xiang Yu conquered the country with all his strength, and his iron hoof reached from Qidi on the bank of the sea in the east to Chuyuan at the foot of Kunlun Mountain in the west. He stretched from east to west, from north to south, and plundered millions of lands. Only one sentence in the history book: since

He is obsessed with meritorious deeds, using his own wisdom instead of learning from the ancients. He is called the overlord, and he wants to conquer and rule the world with his strength. He died in his country in five years, and died in the east city. He is not aware of his failure and does not blame himself. This is too much.

Isn’t it wrong to say, “Heaven destroyed us because of the crime of using troops”! He destroyed the Qin Dynasty and was called a hero. However, he was warlike and unjust, destroying everything he did, and did not give the common people a peaceful world.

. Shen a boat, broke an armor, defeated a giant deer, and saved Pengcheng from defeating the King of Han Dynasty. Yu Ji finished her dance and sighed loudly about the overlord of Wujiang River! Any unjust act will lead to failure! This is true for an overlord who is so powerful, let alone your Excellency."

“………………” The masked man was silent for a long time, and only at the end did he turn his back and faintly replied.

"Ms. Li, the reminiscing about old times ends here. You can rest assured that I am really just asking you to come over and do a small favor. You just need to stay quietly for two days, and I will ensure that nothing happens to you."

"Four virtues, see off guests!"

Before Li Qingzhao could reply, there was a sound of heavy footsteps at the door, and the strong man in black clothes and mask stood at the door and slowly stretched out his hand.

…………

The Imperial City occupies a vast area with countless pavilions and houses. If someone is really hiding in it, finding the person in a short period of time with one person's power would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Especially if it can only be done secretly. .

However, Shen Qiye was not spinning aimlessly. He flew out like an arrow. His movements were extremely fast. He stepped firmly on the wall to use his strength. He stepped on the wall with two steps, grabbed the eaves of the wall with both hands, and then turned over several feet high. The red wall, and for the long-lasting palace city of the master, the defense has long been relaxed, and all the internal masters have already gone to the north. Faced with Shen Qiye's ghostly speed, even in broad daylight, No one can detect the intruder's arrival.

Although the infiltration process went smoothly, Shen Qiye still felt uneasy in his heart. After all, this was a big gamble. Trying to see every corner of the imperial city with his own power was tantamount to wishful thinking. What's more, the thief was hiding in The palace was just a bold guess on his part, with no actual evidence. If he found it, it didn't mean that the matter was over, but if he couldn't find it, then the three brothers and sisters would be done with it.

There have been no royal personnel staying in the palace for a long time, but there are still many palace maids and eunuchs maintaining it. On weekdays, the only people who can go in and out of the palace openly are carriages transporting kitchen supplies. Therefore, after Shen Qiye sneaked in, he began to look for the royal kitchen of the palace. However, although the Imperial City is also an old city, it is still huge. What's more, Shen Qiye has never been here. Half an hour passed. He walked around and still couldn't find the imperial dining room. But the young palace maids and eunuchs I saw piles after piles of people. Without the royal family, they are the masters of this palace. Although there are people in charge, they are all in an extremely unorganized state, especially when they are working. After all, nothing is worse than losing freedom. It is even more despairing to spend the best years of your life guarding a dead city.

Shen Qiye wandered around for a long time, and at one point he couldn't help but want to jump off the eaves directly to ask these little maids who were working hard for directions.

Stopping on the ridge of a hall, Shen Qiye supported a tall and exquisite ridged beast and rode on it. He gasped for air and couldn't help complaining, "Damn it!!! I should have put 'Quack' if I had known better." I called you here. I didn’t expect this damn place to be so big!”

Time waits for no one, but even with great speed, Shen Qiye only briefly inspected one-tenth of the palace city after an hour passed.

After taking a short rest, Shen Qiye was ready to fly out again. There was not much time left. If he couldn't find it again, he would have to give up. After all, he was not sure whether there would be any old monster hidden in this deep palace city.

It is also at this moment.

Maybe it's because you stand tall and see far, or maybe it's coincidence or luck.

In the distance, on a palace road to the east, a familiar figure in a plain dress came into view.

Li Qingzhao here is being watched by this strong man in black clothes and mask. She didn't get any useful information from the conversation with that man. At this moment, she is thinking about countermeasures. Now, she can't outrun the man behind her. Yes, running away rashly would anger this person. This group of people obviously knew this, so they didn't tie her hands and feet at all, they just followed her and watched her. But if she shouted for help, she didn't know where she was. What should I do if there are people from them around here?

Thinking of this, Li Qingzhao suddenly realized that something was wrong. She could hear the sound of the clock beating on time, indicating that this was not a remote place, but probably close to the street. Moreover, the walls of the houses along the way were unusual, which made her unable to help but guess.

Could this be in the yard of a wealthy family?

With so many thoughts in my mind, my steps slowed down unconsciously.

However, the big man in black clothes and face covering behind him couldn't see it. She was already walking slowly, and now she was pacing slightly. How could she be used as a piece of meat like this!?

"Go faster! If you keep dragging your feet like this, I will let you reason with my long sword."

The strong, masked man in black swore angrily, which directly drew Li Qingzhao's attention back.

However, neither of them expected that this roar would be his last words in this world.

Li Qingzhao was about to turn around when she heard a "pop!" sound of something breaking. Then she felt a strong wind coming, and a few strands of black hair were flying around her ears. She thought it was windy, so she instinctively raised her delicate hands to protect her.

In her peripheral vision, she saw a huge black shadow flying out from the side at an extremely fast speed, followed by a muffled sound. When she recovered, she slowly opened her eyes, but she was frightened by the afterimage in front of her, and her feet moved even more.

He couldn't help but step back. But before the "Ah!" sound in his throat came out, his small mouth was suddenly covered by a big hand, his delicate body was hugged, and a low voice came from his ear, "Don't say goodbye."

Make a noise and be careful of their people!"

But no matter how quiet she is orchid, or as solid as rocks, she is still a woman. No matter how hard it is for her to stay calm after being frightened, she doesn't care who the person is or what he is talking about. In desperation, she grabs the bad guy.

He immediately took a bite of it with his hand.

"Hiss!!!!"

As the saying goes, rabbits can bite when they are anxious, not to mention that this is a big living person, and the bite is so powerful that it makes Shen Qiye take a deep breath, even through his clothes.

Even with my clothes on, I felt the heartbreaking pain.

"Master Yi An, Master Yi An, I am Shen Qiye!!!"

"Hiss!!! Miss Li, Miss Li, it's me, it's me, I'm here to rescue you, ah! Let go, let go, let go quickly!"

"..."

Shen Qiye's panicked voice came from behind, but in his panic, Li Qingzhao didn't listen to a word. But he finally heard the word "rescue".

These two words dripped into her mind like water drops, washing away the dust covering her heart. She slowly let go, opened her lips slightly, and took two quick breaths to wake up her oxygen-deprived brain.

Seemingly asking, but also doubting, she asked in a low voice, "Shen, Shen, is this Brother Shen?"

"Yes, yes, it's me, Master Yi An, are you okay?" Shen Qiye hurriedly threw his hands away, grinning on his face.

Li Qingzhao finally realized what he had done. He just grabbed the bad hand and chewed it. Shen Qiye was just behind her and was already close. With this pull, he directly

He pulled her into her arms, and one of the bad hands was being held and chewed by him, and the other was hugging her shoulders. The heat on his back came from another scorching body, and Li Qingzhao reacted immediately.

The moment I thought "Wow!" I felt countless ants crawling all over my body, and then the scorching temperature came from my back and burned all over my body. My pretty face instantly turned red with embarrassment, and I felt that the temperature of my whole body was rising. I was originally awake.

Her brain was burned to pulp again. She quickly jumped away, turned around, lowered her little head and said like a mosquito.

"Shen, Brother Shen! Sorry, Qingzhao was rude just now..."

Shen Qiye smiled bitterly and shook his head, while observing his surroundings vigilantly.

Although Li Qingzhao was generous, she was still a woman waiting to be married. This was the first time she had such close contact with a man. She calmed down after a while, and then her attention returned to the current situation.

Although she had just seen it once, the scene in front of her still couldn't help but make her feel frightened. The strong man in black clothes and mask who was yelling at her on the stone path directly in front was now lying dead three feet away. There was movement, and the stone slabs in front of the corpse were stained with bright red bloodstains. The bloodstains extended to a pool of scarlet blood below the corpse.

The instigator of all this was Shen Qiye, who was rushing over. He was flying from a distance, and with a lucky kick, he stepped on the broken stone tiles, and directly landed a flying knee in the air, hitting the back of the strong man in black with great force. , causing the body weighing more than a hundred kilograms to fly directly several feet away. The strong wind that Li Qingzhao felt just now was caused by this body flying out, which shows the terrifying force in it. One blow hit the back, and then flew out and hit him hard. On this stone floor, the man lay lifeless on the ground without even making a single cry.

This can't be said to be extremely cruel, but the visual impact is indeed very powerful. It was the first time Li Qingzhao had seen this kind of blood. Even though she had calmed down, the sight of the bloody head and the bloody ground still frightened her.

She quickly turned around and looked at this unexpected "man from heaven!"

"Shen, Brother Shen, why are you here? What exactly is this place?"

Shen Qiye flicked his wrist and rubbed the "wound" with his right hand, hissing continuously. When he heard her ask, he replied angrily, "Hiss!!! What are you doing!! I What else are you doing here? I’m not here to rescue you!! Hiss!! It hurts me so much!!!”

Li Qingzhao was in shock just now. He didn't care whether the person saved him or not, so he just "ouched". Now looking at Brother Shen's miserable state, his face was burning like a fire, and he just felt ashamed. extremely.

He lowered his head and whispered, "Yes, it's Qingzhao's fault. It's all Qingzhao's fault. In a moment of panic, he bit, bit, and hurt the elder brother. Qingzhao apologizes to Brother Shen!"

Hurt me? That's not possible, but the pain from this bite is indeed true. But before Shen Qiye was ready to say it was okay, Li Qingzhao here added another sentence. "But, Brother Shen is also at fault. ! Qingzhao is a woman. It is said that men and women cannot be intimate with each other. How could Brother Shen, how could he, how could he, how could he have rashly hugged Qingzhao!" Her voice became quieter, and she was the only one who could say the last few words. hear.

Huh? Ah? Did I save you by mistake when I saved you emotionally? Is Master Yi An really unreasonable? But after all, Shen Qiye is calmer than her. Knowing that the current situation is not out of danger, he quickly resorts to countermeasures. Women's Skills: Attention Diversion Technique

"I, I, don't do this. You just shouted. Wouldn't it be a bad thing if the accomplices of these thieves heard it? This is also a matter of urgency! Let's not talk about this. Where are the others? Where are they being held? Come on. Take me there. Also, how many thieves are there in this group??"
