Chapter 194: Nightfall

As night falls, the fog in Chengdu has not dissipated and seems to be getting thicker.

Through the light mist, you can vaguely see the twinkling stars in the dark blue night sky. The footsteps of winter seem to be blocked by the rolling Bashan. Walking on this quiet street at night, strolling, Lu

Heng unexpectedly discovered a small grass that was still growing tenaciously under an earthen wall on the street. The grass stood so stubbornly in the slightly cold wind at night, and the green grass walked leisurely forward.

If it’s not leather, what is that?

Agui scratched his head in confusion and muttered in a low voice.

When he raised his head and saw that the young master had gone away, Agui woke up and hurriedly chased after him.

The two masters and servants just walked aimlessly on this quiet street. In the night sky, the bright moon with white spots was like a dignified swan, walking in the faint sea of ​​clouds.

The night scene of Chengdu in the quiet night is so charming.

Lu Heng stood on the street, looking at the empty and silent street. He raised his head and looked at the bright moon roaming in the light mist. After taking a deep breath of moisture, he couldn't help but admire in his heart.

Lanterns hung by wealthy families on both sides of the street swayed slightly in the gentle evening breeze.

Look at the dim light, illuminating every corner.

Lu Heng stood there for a long time.

Just quietly looking at the lantern hanging on the dilapidated doorway, I sighed slightly in my heart.

It's been such a long time since you left home, Qingqing, how are you?

The face of the woman who looked like a fairy who had been banished to the mortal world appeared in front of her, like a lotus flower blooming in spring. Only then did Lu Heng, who was in a foreign land, realize that he missed her so much.

Thinking of that heart that is like crystal, pure, bright but fragile.

Lu Heng sighed deeply and stared at the lantern swaying in the wind in the hazy mist for a long time, finally letting out a long sigh in his heart.

He turned around and smiled faintly at Agui: "Let's go!" Agui responded in a muffled voice. Just as he was about to move forward, he suddenly saw a dark figure flashing past the Chai door.

Agui is one of the best hunters in Miao Township, and his eyesight is naturally good. In just a moment, Agui recognized that the black figure was a person.

Agui was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Lu Heng's arm, and then stretched out his arms to hug Lu Heng very roughly. Then he hugged Lu Heng and disappeared into the darkness beside the street with a whoosh.

"Agui, I'm warning you, you'll never do this again!" This is already the third time.

Although I know that Agui is loyal to protect the Lord, I am afraid that I will be harmed. However, such an action is really embarrassing.

He was a grown man, but Agui picked him up like a piece of pork and ran him into the dark. Lu Heng, whose self-esteem was severely hurt, was so depressed that he cursed him angrily.

"Hehe, hehe!" Agui smiled honestly and scratched his head, as if he was embarrassed.

Lu Heng shook his head feebly in his heart. Seeing Agui's expression, he knew that these words were purely in vain. He would probably forget all about it after a while.

This can't be blamed on Agui. The main reason is that these days, Lu Heng seems to have offended all the gods in the sky. Wherever he goes, he will be assassinated. Especially what happened ten days ago!

After the meeting ten days ago, Lu Heng came out of the Zhizhou Mansion. He was about to take a walk and ask where Bai Miao lived. However, just as he walked out of the corner, he heard a sharp sound in the air.

Voice.

Poor Lu Heng, although Zhang Wenshan and others turned him into a monster with so much wisdom that he was almost a monster, he was still a weak scholar. Although in his previous life, he had practiced some health-building martial arts such as Tai Chi, but he only practiced Huā Quan embroidery.

It’s just tui.

At that time, Lu Heng was startled when he heard a jumping sound behind him, which seemed to be the sound of a bow string shaking. He hurriedly pulled away and ran towards the dense crowd ahead.

However, the person who assassinated him was obviously an expert at this. It was impossible to miss such an excellent opportunity.

Just as Lu Heng raised his feet, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back. There was a squeaking sound.

The sharp arrow, with its extremely penetrating property, shot directly through Lu Heng's body, and the arrow emerged from his chest.

A fishy hot liquid surged up in his throat. Lu Heng's feet were unsteady and he fell to the ground with a plop. His throat felt sweet, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Damn it, are you going to die?

Lu Heng lay on the ground, trying to hold himself up. However, he clearly felt that the heat was passing away quickly. His body became extremely cold. His vision began to blur, and he could vaguely see the panicked people running around in front of him.

appearance.

There was a jumping sound. Behind him, the urging voice sounded again.

Lu Heng sighed slightly in his heart, but his heart suddenly became calm. Liu Qingqing, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, could not help but appear in front of his eyes, with an unparalleled beauty in the world. He shook his head with a wry smile, a trace of apology and regret welling up in his heart.

However, just as the bow string was remembered, three rapid bow string sounds suddenly sounded from behind again.

At the same time, the blood boiling roar of the Aquina beast sounded from behind: "I'll kill you bunch of idiots!"

Oh, he finally found the heart of the tiger!

Lu Heng wanted to look back, but his eyelids were too heavy. He couldn't open his eyes and nose. When the last light disappeared, his vision went dark, and he didn't know anything anymore.

Boundless darkness enveloped him, and his body seemed like a small boat floating in the rough waves in the dark night. It was thrillingly fighting against the huge waves.

I feel dizzy and want to vomit!

An extremely uncomfortable feeling came to his chest. Lu Heng suddenly opened his eyes, tilted his head, and spat it out with a loud sound.

There seemed to be several figures in his hazy vision, all lying in front of him, looking at him strangely.

In my ears, I remembered Zhang Wenshan's seemingly far away voice. The trembling voice was filled with the fury of thunder: "The whole city is under martial law, kill them and they will be executed in Lingchi!!" Then I seemed to hear someone buzzing and saying, "Ugh!"

He was talking about something, but then, a very clear sound of slamming a cup was heard.

Then, Zhang Wenshan's extremely dark voice came: "Huang Captou, do you want to disobey me?" "What happened, I'll bear it!"

These were the last words Lu Heng heard!

When he woke up again, he saw the old man Zhang Wenshan sitting on the chair next to the bed and taking a nap with his back leaning against the chair.

After not seeing each other for a few days, the old man's hair had lost its black color and was now a shining silver color, making him look particularly friendly.

Perhaps when Lu Heng turned his body, he made a slight noise that disturbed Zhang Wenshan, who was sleeping soundly. The old man opened his eyes as if he knew something when Lu Heng woke up.

His eyes were full of surprise, astonishment, and excitement. He sat there, staring at Lu Heng in a daze. His lips trembled, but he couldn't say a word.

The morning light shone faintly into the room. The old man just turned his back to the beam of light behind him, his silver hair shining brightly. The sunlight shining on his back reflected a hazy light on his somewhat stooped body.

The old man looked at Lu Heng quietly and then raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes. Then, under Lu Heng's smiling eyes, the old man suddenly raised his head and laughed.

The maniacal laughter and slightly moist eyes reflected the light of a man in the warm sunshine.

Lu Heng smiled hard, shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Old man, when did you become Wu Zixu?"

Zhang Wenshan stretched out his hands tremblingly, supported the armrests of the chair, and wanted to stand up, but found that his legs were numb and he couldn't help but tremble.

After a long time, the old man took two steps and suddenly stopped. Tears flashed in his eyes, and the fire of blame and anger was burning.

Zhang Wenshan just looked at Lu Heng, with Wanbi's usual calm smile appearing on his pale face. The anger he was filled with suddenly turned into nothingness.

He sighed deeply, looked at Lu Heng with a wry smile, shook his head and said, "You know what? You scared me to death!"

This is the first time that Zhang Wenshan, a talented man known for his elegance and modesty, has spoken dirty words since he met him.

During the short chat, Lu Heng also learned that on that day, he was penetrated by an arrow through the back of his chest.

It was basically hung at the door of the Hall of the King of Hell. After seeing his situation, the doctor he invited shook his head with regret and said four words to Zhang Wenshan in a concise manner: "There is no way to save him!"

"After hearing this, Zhang Wenshan's beard and hair turned white overnight. He sat blankly in Lu Heng's room, looking at the scholar on the bed whose vitality was gradually disappearing. His heart went blank.

Sitting quietly, Zhang Wenshan's calm and terrifying eyes were gradually replaced by crazy murderous intent. In the middle of the night, Zhang Wenshan summoned the Chengdu garrison outside Lu Heng's room and ordered the city gates to be sealed.

Order for arrest.

And just when Zhang Wenshan was outside the room, giving orders in an extremely low voice. In the room, Agui, who had been standing by Lu Heng's side, was crying and trying to revive Lu Heng using native methods from his hometown.

However, just when he reached out to press Lu Heng's chest, he suddenly touched something strange. When he took it out, he found it was a bottle of medicine.

Although Agui is usually a bit honest, honest people are often more persistent. It is precisely because of his persistence in life that he saved Lu Heng's life!

When he saw the bottle of medicine, his eyes were filled with joy. He hurriedly opened the bottle and tore the clothes around Lu Heng's chest in two or two strokes. He opened the bottle and poured in the golden medicine.

In the chest that had been shattered by the spiral arrow.

Then, in Agui's eyes filled with tears and expectation, a miracle happened.

I saw that Lu Heng's mouth, which was already bloody and bloody, actually began to heal rapidly.

The wound healed quickly, and the blood that kept pouring out stopped in the blink of an eye. In just a few breaths, the originally hideous wound healed, leaving only a plum-shaped pink dot.

After seeing this scene, Agui suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit scary.

In the past few days, he could often hear Master Zhizhou calling Mr. Lu a monster, or directly a monster.

Now, after seeing this scene, Agui suddenly felt yin-filled.

He looked at Mr. Lu on the bed, whose face had regained some color. He was afraid of being happy.

However, I remembered that since I met Lu Heng, my family had more food and more cloth.

My sister can finally wear something nice after going out.

After thinking of this, Agui's heart gradually relaxed.

He convinced himself with a very simple but effective sentence: How can there be such a good monster in the world? I think Mr. Lu is more like a god!

Saying this, Agui sat down again and began to pour all the remaining medicine in the bottle onto the pink dot.

When Lu Heng woke up again, it was already morning.

From Zhang Wenshan's extremely angry voice in the room, Lu Heng also knew that the assassin must have been caught.

However, because his body was too weak, he fell into coma again after hearing only a few words.

Now, wake up again.

When he saw the old man Zhang Wenshan, his beard and hair were all white. There were tears in his eyes and the concern on his face. Lu Heng couldn't help but think of his father who passed away early in his previous life.

"Is he from Anpeng?" Lu Heng forced himself not to look at Zhang Wenshan's silver hair. He turned his head, but his heart was filled with sadness. After taking a deep breath, he opened his eyes and looked at the top of his head.

Curtain. asked lightly.

"Well, that's the old guy!" Zhang Wenshan nodded and replied with a hearty laugh.

"Thank you!" Lu Heng smiled slightly, raised his hand, cupped his fist and cupped his hand, and said lightly.

Zhang Wenshan smiled and looked at Lu Heng's calm look. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said solemnly: "Okay, I will accept your thank you!"

The next day, Lu Heng finally learned from Agui why Zhang Wenshan was so angry that day. Oh, it turned out that the culprit was because of one person.

There is no doubt that the assassin is from An Peng, and he is not alone. The assassin who was hiding in the dark and fired cold arrows at Lu Heng. Agui was rushed out at the first moment, and three arrows were fired in unison, piercing through the skull.

, hang up on the spot.

The other people involved in this incident were picked out by Zhang Wenshan from all corners of Chengdu that night.

One of them turned out to be An Peng's adopted son, known as the number one general in the An family army, An Yong!

At that time, when Capt. Huang caught him, this man was so bold as to hang out with a group of brothel girls in the Yingbin Building. After seeing Capt. Huang and his men break in, this guy got off the sheets and

He pulled out a knife and started fighting with Huang Captou and others.

Although the Yellow Catcher has a large number of people, this man is extremely brave.

Huang and the other three were defeated in succession under this man's attack. However, when this man was about to escape, he was surrounded by the Chengdu garrison who came later.

Facing the gleaming swords and guns of the army, there was not a trace of fear on this man's face.

He laughed loudly and took out Anjia's waistband from his arms.

Seeing this waist card, Huang Captou immediately calmed down. In a sudden thought, he gave up the idea of ​​killing this man on the spot. He just asked the sergeants to take him back to wait for Lord Zhizhou.

speak.

However, he did not expect that the scholar would have such an important position in Lord Zhizhou's heart.

When he reported this matter to Zhang Wenshan, Zhang Wenshan's anger immediately broke out. He scolded him, then waved his hand and said two words to him coldly: cut him off!

In this way, Zhang Wenshan completely broke with An Peng and stood on the opposite side of the An family.

After hearing the news, Lu Heng sighed slightly and said lightly in his heart, thank you, Zhang Wenshan!

During the few days he lay on the bed, in addition to calculating the steps and strategies to deal with An Jia, Lu Heng's mind was filled with longing for Liu Qingqing who was far away in Jiangning.

I remembered that I have been away from home for almost a month. I don’t know how the woman far away in Jiangning is doing now. Do you think about me?

Now, I almost died here!

As Lu Heng survived the disaster, his longing for that woman grew more and more day by day.

There is no doubt about the efficacy of Tiantian No. 1. On the fifth day, Lu Heng, who had been lying on the bed for five days, finally fully recovered.

After landing on the ground, Lu Heng shook his head slightly and refused Agui's help.

He walked straight to the door and opened the door.

With a creak, the wooden door slowly opened.

The morning sun shines on your face, it's warm, it's really warm!

Two days after the incident, several fish that slipped through the net were all caught by Zhang Wenshan. Like An Peng's adopted son An Yong, none of these people escaped the fate of being beheaded.

After experiencing several bloody nights, Chengdu finally returned to its former peace.

Tonight, taking advantage of the beautiful night, Lu Heng took Agui and walked out of the Zhizhou Mansion.

Lu Heng, who had experienced life and death, walked on this silent street and quietly looked at the interesting scenery beside the street. The fatigue in his heart for a long time was finally relieved.

Oh, life is still leisurely!

Such a peaceful and leisurely scene seems to have only happened before on that winter day by the Qinhuai River when I was first afraid of this big week.

It's just that, ahem, I have no choice but Agui is too rude.

This man, in the past two days, had been like a frightened bird. As soon as there was any disturbance, he would directly pick up Lu Heng and run away without a trace.

Lu Heng turned his head and looked at Agui, who was scratching his head and smiling innocently, and felt a helpless smile in his heart.

"Can you hit it?" Lu Heng, who was hiding in the dark at night, pointed at the gangster who took out the knife and started to pry open the door. He turned around, smiled slightly, and asked Aguidao.

"Yes!" Agui replied angrily. As he spoke, he took off the iron-tired rigid bow that he had modified in the past few days based on the drawings drawn by Lu Heng from behind.

He cocked the arrow and narrowed his eyes slightly.

After calming down his breathing, Agui moved his fingers slightly.

With a whooshing sound, the cold iron arrow shot into the night reflected the faint silvery moonlight and refracted a dazzling light.

This arrow is like a bright meteor streaking across the night sky, its cold light illuminating the dim night!@.
