As soon as the word "noisy" came out, a large number of people in the hall fell to the ground one after another, and slight groans could be heard one after another.
Liu Xiaomu dragged Yang Zhaoxi, turned into an afterimage, and floated out of the hall. Among the guards who were waiting outside Wangchun Palace, someone with sharp eyes noticed the whereabouts of the two men and shouted loudly: "The thief has escaped! Chase after him!"
!”
One man and one fox threw away the group of guards, flew across the peony garden, and fled towards the south garden wall. "Whoosh! Whoosh!" The flying arrows and the guards holding torches were quickly left far behind.
Running out of the two-foot-high garden wall, Liu Xiaomu took the lead in finding a tall locust tree, and with a flash of red light, he escaped into the crown of the tree.
Yang Zhaoxi's steps were a little slow, but he kept moving and quickly followed up. After a few climbs, he got into the dark and dense branches and leaves.
In less than ten breaths, several torches flew out of the garden wall. Then several guards with quick movements jumped down from the garden wall, picked up the torches, and continued to chase them in three directions: east, south, and west.
The guards with weaker tactics all detoured from the Xingshan Gate of Shendu Garden and divided their troops into three groups to join the pursuit.
The crescent moon was hazy and there were no stars. On the big locust tree, Yang Zhaoxi stretched out his six senses and listened carefully. When he heard a group of guards running away, he asked: "Why did aunt want to save Xiaoman?"
Liu Xiaomu chuckled: "Because it's fun! Besides, if I don't save him, Young Master Yang will take action. If he's just not good at studying, he will inevitably die, and that would be a pity!"
Seeing that she was unwilling to tell the truth, Yang Zhaoxi did not go into details, and then said: "Since you escaped, why do you still stay here? Are you going to kill Tian Hua?"
Liu Xiaomu said in a disgusting tone: "A little bug is worthy of my aunt's action? I stay here, naturally, to see if the little prince is true to his words. Save people and save them to the end! If the little man has not escaped from the tiger's mouth, Daxia Yang
Are you afraid that you will have trouble sleeping and eating? Geez!"
Yang Chaoxi felt powerless in her heart. In terms of Taoism and martial arts, she was not as good as her when it came to flattering horses. However, in terms of her sharp tongue, she was often said to be speechless. She was truly lucky to have such a Taoist friend!
When Liu Xiaomu saw him turning his head and saying nothing, he smiled and said: "Just wait here! My aunt wants to kill a 'returner' to see how that little man is doing..."
As soon as the words fell, the figure disappeared. Yang Chaoxi was left alone, leaning between the branches of the tree, thinking about the small but interesting past with Liu Xiaomu, shaking his head and sighing.
In a certain pavilion in the Shendu Garden, the consort Tian Hua, whose right hand was tied up with white gauze into a rice dumpling, was raising his left hand and waving pieces of wood and porcelain from his side. The sound of "dinging, banging, banging" could not be heard.
The two dancers who were supposed to be sleeping there were now shivering and huddled in a corner of the pavilion, not knowing what to do.
At this time, a thin Confucian scholar walked into the pavilion, his feet paused slightly, and a three-color porcelain vase exploded into pieces on the ground two feet in front of him.
The crisp crackling sound was like water droplets falling into boiling oil, which made Tian Hua's angry mood become even more violent: "Lin Jieyuan! You came just in time! My hand... it hurts so much! You must hold it for me."
Witch, torn into pieces!
What’s even more hateful is that in the eyes of the prince, I, Tian Hua, a powerful prince-in-law, am no better than a dancer from a dance studio! This is tolerable, but what is intolerable..."
Lin Jieyuan bowed his hands and said, "Tian Gong specifically asked the prince to be careful in his words and deeds before he left. In this way, he will not be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives..."
"Nonsense! Those bastards are shitting on my neck, can't I curse a few words?!" Tian Hua interrupted Lin Jieyuan rudely, "I don't care! Starting tonight, you will send all the 'Weizhou Eight Heroes' to
I’ll catch that witch! If she can’t be found, there’s no need to go back to Weizhou!”
"It's just that the 'Rushui Sword' is still being searched for..." Lin Jieyuan hesitated.
"Lin Jieyuan! You can't understand human language, can you?! I want you to capture the demon girl! Cut her into pieces with thousands of knives and cut her into pieces... Hum! Before killing her, I have to subdue her personally and call her.
Life is worse than death. Hahaha!" Tian Hua looked like he was crazy, venting the anger in his chest wantonly.
Lin Jieyuan saw that Tian Hua was furious and could not persuade him, so he had to surrender and hurriedly exited the pavilion. Before he could go far, he heard the sharp and helpless wails of the two dancers in the pavilion. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a tiger father.
When giving birth to dogs, each generation is not as good as the last...
Not long after Liu Xiaomu returned to Shendu Garden, an inconspicuous oil truck quietly drove out of Xingshan Gate and drove towards the east.
The curtains of the carriage were lowered, and the people riding on them could not be seen clearly, but those surrounding the oil-walled carriage were the Dong Palace Guards who were in the main hall just now. "Tap! Tread! Tread!" The guards sounded like one guard, and they made the sound of overlapping footsteps.
, showing the well-trained royal majesty.
Yang Chaoxi glanced at it and guessed that Prince Li Shi was worried about his own safety, so he changed into a shabby car and, under the leadership of the East Palace Guards, took the lead to leave Shendu Garden to find another suitable place to stay.
There was nothing wrong with him, but the driver of the car made him stunned for a moment, and his heart felt a little hot: Master Changyuan... Master!
He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, and when the car passed under the big locust tree and gradually moved away, he took out the Xuantong sword, peeled off the brown bark of a branch, and used the sword to write: Aunt Xiaomu, if you have to go to the trail first, please change it.
See you later.
After finishing writing, he got off the tree and chased the car in the direction where it disappeared.
Fortunately, it was late at night and there was no one around. The ringing of the bell on the oil-walled car was clear and clear, and could be heard far away in the streets. Yang Zhaoxi’s six senses were sharp, and he could follow the sound of the bell far behind, so there was no need to worry.
, will be noticed by the East Palace Guards.
The car drove out of Shendu Garden and drove all the way east. It drove four or five miles and stopped in front of a square gate.
The East Palace Guard led the first person out, smashed open the square door, and showed a palace sign. The bad guard guarding the square gate only obeyed and led everyone in. Then with a "bang!", the square gate was closed again, as if
Nothing happened.
Yang Chaoxi then followed the shadow in the corner of the square wall and ran up quickly. He soon saw two big characters "Chongzheng" painted in black ink on a white background above the square door. He suddenly understood:
The Henan government office is located in this square. Prince Li Shung must have been invited by Henan Yin Xiaojing to come to the government office for temporary refuge. In addition, further east from Chongzhengfang is Dunhua, where Linji Temple and Tongxuan Temple are located.
Fang, but thinking about it, this must be just a coincidence.
The gate of Chongzheng Square was closed, so Yang Zhaoxi had to find another way. He took a few steps back, took a run, stepped on the ground, stepped on the wall, put his hands together...he jumped up easily, and the square wall that was more than ten feet high was immediately left behind.
He was hanging in the sky above the square, and after a slight stagnation, his body began to fall.
Suddenly, a big hand stretched out from the shadow under the wall and slapped him with a palm. It seemed weak, but he could vaguely detect the surging Yang Yuan Qi, swaying in the sleeves of his robe. If he was hit by a palm, it would be real.
My chest, I'm afraid my internal organs will be shattered!
Yang Chaoxi didn't dare to raise his head, so he twisted around in the air and slapped his right palm belatedly. He mobilized the innate and acquired Qi in his body and poured it into his right arm. In a flash of lightning, the two hands of the big hand were connected.
Palms clash, fight for the next one!
"Bang!" The two men collided with each other, making a muffled sound. Yang Chaoxi's right arm was in severe pain. He took several steps back with the force of the shock, and his back hit the red earth wall, causing dust to fly down.
, covering his head and face. When he raised his head and looked again, he had recognized the person who had sneaked the attack. He was not surprised but overjoyed: "Master!"
The person who made the sneak attack was Li Changyuan. Although Yang Chaoxi, who was following him all the way, hid the truth from the East Palace Guards, he could not hide it from Li Changyuan, who had been practicing Taoism for many years. So after entering the square gate, Li Changyuan stayed behind with an excuse, hoping to get rid of this follower.
threats.
Li Changyuan's face was indifferent, with a hint of suspicion as he looked at the gray-faced young man in front of him. For a moment, he couldn't remember when and where he had accepted a disciple.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed through his heart, and the ice on his face melted, turning into a warm spring breeze: "Is it... Xi'er? You are Yang Chaoxi! You have grown so big!"
The walls of the square are high, the moon is setting in the west, and a faint mist rises between the grass and trees, making people's faces even more blurry.
After being apart for many years, the master and the disciple met each other under such circumstances. It was indeed a bit unspeakably special. Li Changyuan secretly rejoiced in his heart: Fortunately, he did not have murderous intentions just now, but only focused on restraining the people who were following him.
.Otherwise, if I strike with all my strength, how can the disciple in front of me resist?
Yang Zhaoxi received a hard slap, and his right arm fell into temporary numbness. At this moment, he no longer obeyed his command. He also felt a sense of fear in his heart: Fortunately, the person who came to arrest him was his master, otherwise he would have encountered such a powerful enemy by chance, and he would have fallen here today.
Sure enough, traveling around the world and being strong in martial arts are the foundation for a successful life.
Looking at his master's sharp-browed eyebrows and star-studded face, Yang Chaoxi bowed his head and said, "Master, I haven't seen you for almost ten years, and you already have gray hair!"
Li Changyuan also smiled and nodded: "Time is not forgiving. Although we are cultivators, we can't withstand the cycle of heaven. However, Xi'er's skill is so strong that I am quite surprised! That palm just now was good as expected, Xi'er
You have entered the realm of refining and transforming Qi."
Yang Chaoxi nodded: "This disciple has never forgotten the teachings of the master all the way through practice. Thanks to the advice of Master Gongsun and the Celestial Master Wu Zhengjie, he also learned fist and kick martial arts from some seniors and brothers, so he was lucky enough to have some ability to protect himself.
.”
"I'm ashamed to say it! I didn't teach you much when I was my teacher, and the time was short. I just had time to enlighten you, and then I left the mountain for some reason. Now that we meet again, I can make up for the shortcomings. I will learn what I know from my teacher and do my best.
Grant!" Li Changyuan knew that he was trying to comfort himself. As a master, he was not as helpful as others, so he felt really sorry.
Yang Chaoxi smiled and said: "I just happened to meet Master's driver on the road, but I didn't dare to rush up to recognize him for fear of shocking the people in the car. So I followed him all the way. Please forgive me!"
Li Changyuan waved his hand and said with a gentle expression: "It doesn't matter! You are always cautious in your actions. Just now, it was really for the sake of the teacher, which was not easy. But the teacher thought that some ranger had received the money and was going to assassinate him. Xi'er, this is
Since I am not in a place to talk, I will follow my teacher and find another place to talk about the past ten years!"
Yang Zhaoxi happily agreed. The master and the apprentice jumped out of the square wall again, ran a few steps eastward, and came to the outside of Dunhua Square.
