A house located in Chang'an City that looks very ordinary on the outside, but inside the door is a post with five steps and one sentry, guarded by some men in black. As night falls, inside the surrounding houses
Everyone had lights on, but this house was still dark, as if there was no one inside.
By the moonlight, a man of medium height appeared nimbly in the yard. He frowned and glanced around, waved his hand, and when a man in black rushed to the man's side, he clasped his fists at him.
Salute. The man nodded and said, "Just like before, let's light a lamp in the east wing! If we don't light a lamp here, it would be too conspicuous!"
The man in black didn't make a sound, but bowed to the man and ran out directly. Soon, a light came on in the east wing. After seeing the light turn on, the man then
He nodded to express his satisfaction, and then turned around and walked to the west wing. Quickly walking to the door of the west wing, the man took a deep breath, and a complicated expression appeared on his face, but
Soon he regained his previous calmness. He lowered his head, cupped his fists and whispered to the door: "Madam!"
"Is it Li Gui?" A woman's voice sounded from behind the door. It sounded charming and lazy, as if this voice could arouse a fire in a man's heart!
That man, Li Gui, the leader of the soldiers of the General's Mansion, immediately shouted to the door in a low voice: "Madam! It's already night, madam, what else do you need to explain?" Ever since Li Gui was sent by Luo Yang to guard this place.
, Li Gui would come here as a routine at this time every day to ask such a question.
The woman in the room, He Waner, who was hidden in the Luoyang Golden House, quickly replied: "There is nothing more for you to do, just step back!"
"Here!" Li Gui immediately shouted, then clasped his fists and retreated backwards. After retreating dozens of steps away from the door, Li Gui raised his body, but did not look again.
He glanced at the west wing, then turned and walked towards the east wing. The reason why he asked his men to light lamps in the east wing before was to attract other people's attention. If anyone really wanted to do evil, they would only find someone.
The east wing with lights. As for He Waner's west wing, the doors, windows and walls have been sealed tightly with wooden boards and black cloth. Even if He Waner lights a lamp inside, the light cannot penetrate.
After entering the side room, Li Gui waved his hand, and all the men in black who were originally guarding here retreated. After confirming that there was no one in the room, Li Gui breathed a long sigh of relief and walked straight to the bed in the room.
After sitting down and being silent for a moment, Li Gui reached into his arms and took out a hairpin used by women. This hairpin looked extremely finely made, but it was made of pure gold.
They are definitely accessories used by wealthy people. For a man like Li Gui, he is holding a woman's accessories, which looks a bit nondescript. No wonder Li Gui wanted to clear out everyone else before!
Looking down at the hairpin, Li Gui's face showed a gentle expression that was hard to see in normal times. He even used his other hand to gently stroke the hairpin back and forth from time to time. It was like stroking a lover's hand.
.
"Who is it?" At this moment, a low shout suddenly came from outside. Upon hearing this voice, Li Gui immediately put the hairpin in his hand back into his arms, jumped up at the same time, and blew the hair first.
After extinguishing the oil lamp in the room, he ran directly to the window of the room and gently raised the window with his hands. Before Li Gui stretched out his head to look outside, he heard two sounds piercing the air and two black figures.
It flew in, grazing Li Gui's cheek, and it was two short arrows!
Li Gui's eyes turned cold. The situation couldn't be more obvious. Someone was here to assassinate him! Before Li Gui could rush out of the room, he felt a strong wind coming, but two figures broke through the window and jumped in!
They are enemies, not friends! Although the room was dark at this time and it was impossible to see the appearance of the two figures who rushed in, Li Gui immediately made a judgment. Because according to Li Gui's previous arrangement, there was no order from Li Gui
, other people are not allowed to break into the wing without permission! Then these two intruders can only be enemies! Without saying anything, Li Gui jumped towards the two figures who had jumped into the room.
He walked over and touched his waist with his palm, and then, a cold light flashed through, right in the eyes of the two people!
The sudden appearance of light overwhelmed the eyes of the two assassins, and they closed their eyes subconsciously. Although it was only a blink of an eye, it was enough for Li Gui! Li Gui turned his wrist and
A cold light flashed across the throats of the two assassins. The two assassins didn't even make a sound, they just fell dead on the spot!
After killing the two assassins, Li Gui never stayed in the room again. The bait in the east wing could only work temporarily. Since the other party dared to come here to assassinate, he must have a certain degree of confidence. It was absolutely impossible to just do this.
Two losers! If Li Gui guessed correctly, the two people just now were probably just chess pieces used to explore the way. Now that the situation in the east wing has been discovered by the other party, the next thing they have to deal with is the west wing where He Waner is.
The wing room! And this situation is absolutely unacceptable to Li Gui!
He jumped out of the window, and what greeted Li Gui was a row of short arrows flashing with blue light! However, with Li Gui's skill, how could such short arrows be able to assassinate Li Guiqing?
Li Gui picked up the sword in his hand, flew up and down, and immediately pushed away those short arrows. At the same time, Li Gui turned over, and the sword in his hand picked up a few stones on the ground. Under the ejection of the sword, those few stones immediately flew away.
It was shot towards the wall with strong force! Immediately afterwards, several shrill screams were heard, and the assassins who had just fired secret arrows at Li Gui also fell from the wall, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
At this moment, Li Gui finally saw clearly the situation inside the entire residence. The residence had a very simple courtyard layout with a large courtyard in the middle. At this moment, in the courtyard, there were fighting figures everywhere! Everyone was wearing black clothes.
, even Li Gui couldn't tell which of these people were assassins and which were his subordinates. But Li Gui couldn't control that much. He narrowed his eyes and saw that several assassins were rushing towards the west wing. Of course he couldn't.
Will let the assassin get close to He Wan'er and directly chase her.
Gui Feng, who dominated the northwest back then, was known for his speed. A cold light flashed across his face, and in the blink of an eye, Li Gui had caught up with the assassins who were trying to approach the west wing. Li Gui didn't bother to say more to them.
Nonsense, with a wave of the sword in his hand, those assassins died tragically under Li Gui's sword!
Li Gui landed firmly at the door of the west wing, looked coldly at the people in the courtyard, and shouted loudly: "Who are you? How dare you come to assassinate me?" Chang'an is Luo Yang's base! Although Luo Yang is going there with his army now
Hangu Pass is facing the Kwantung Allied Forces, but there are also Jinyi Guards commanded by Jia Xu in the city. It is impossible for these assassins not to know this, but they still dare to assassinate. This proves that the attackers are evil!
"Hmph!" Suddenly, a cold snort came from the roof of the east wing opposite where Li Gui was just now. A burly man in black was standing there, but he was wearing a mask, so he couldn't see clearly.
.From the only pair of eyes exposed on the mask, a flash of light flashed, and he shouted loudly: "Unexpectedly! Gui Feng, who dominated the northwest back then, has now become Luo Yang's servant!"
When someone recognized his past identity, Li Gui's expression remained unchanged and he shouted in a cold voice: "Who are you? How dare you commit an assassination here! Could it be that you want to go to Jinyiwei's prison to taste the torture tools?"
Saying this, Li Gui took the opportunity to see clearly the situation in the courtyard. Although the people in the courtyard were all dressed in black, Li Gui's men did not wear any masks, so the men in black wearing masks
There is no doubt that they are assassins! In the courtyard, the number of assassins is obviously much greater than that of Li Gui's men. In this way, Li Guiguang may not be able to resist these assassins with his men. For now, the only solution is to delay time.
I believe that if there is such a big commotion here, the security forces and Jin Yiwei troops in the city will definitely arrive upon hearing the news!
As if he had seen through Li Gui's thoughts, the burly man laughed loudly and shouted: "Gui Feng! Do you want to delay time and wait for reinforcements? Humph! Since we dare to come here, we are naturally prepared! Tonight in the city
I'm afraid the security forces will be very busy and won't have time to come! As for the Jin Yiwei troops! Although we can't stop them, it shouldn't be a problem if we delay them for half an hour!"
Hearing what the other party said, Li Gui couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. It was obvious that the other party was not lying. Now Li Gui's subordinates in the courtyard were completely at a disadvantage. They would definitely not be able to last for half an hour! If these subordinates were all dead,
It was impossible for Li Gui to defend this place by himself. But from the burly man on the roof, Li Gui clearly felt an aura that was not inferior to his own. Being stared at by him like this, Li Gui didn't feel the same.
If you dare to step forward to help your subordinates kill the enemy, you can only stay here and watch your subordinates being killed one by one!
"Gui Feng! I respect you as a good man! Why don't you abandon your sword and surrender? I'll guarantee you a lifetime of prosperity and wealth!" Seeing Li Gui's hesitation, the burly man also laughed and began to attack Li Gui.
Offered an olive branch.
Li Gui hesitated because he was considering whether to step forward to rescue his subordinates. Regarding the burly man's suggestion, Li Gui subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the door of the west wing behind him, and his eyes were immediately full of determination. Then,
Li Gui turned his head and stared at the burly man and shouted: "I have been deeply favored by the general, how can I betray the Lord? You want me to surrender? I'm dreaming!"
