Chapter 113: The End of the Web
The sky gradually darkened, and the banquet was still going on. Fu Nian and other Confucians were in a different mood from when they first arrived in Xianyang.
I saw Fusu sitting respectfully beside Fu Nian, and the two of them were communicating in a low voice. The Confucian became Fusu's teacher, which was equivalent to Ying Zheng's disguised recognition of the status of Confucianism. Some things don't need to be said explicitly, and both sides are smart people.
Although Fusu had studied the Four Books and Five Classics with several Confucianists before, he did not really become a disciple. Now Confucianism has become Fusu's teacher. So far, the military has the support of the Meng family and the Wang family. Although Confucianism has not yet officially entered the court, it is only a matter of time. It can be said that Fusu is the first person under Ying Zheng.
At this time, a group of strong men came to the hall again to perform the unique war dance of the Qin Dynasty. They danced hard with the drums. Everyone was interested in watching, but only one person was drinking wine in a depressed mood, and his eyes turned to Su Yu and Fusu from time to time. It was Zhao Gao.
"What? How can the dignified leader of Luowang look so depressed?" Li Si came over with a wine glass in his hand and said.
"Why do you ask when you know the answer, Lord Li?" Zhao Gao said gloomily.
"Haha, Lord Zhao, you and I have been fighting for so many years, but now we can't beat him with just one word. Do you know why?" Li Si said.
"Lord Li, you can say whatever you want." Zhao Gao said.
"Alas, strength, personal strength, when a person is so strong that he ignores all laws and rules, all conspiracies and overt plots look like jokes. Lord Zhao has been an official in the same court for so many years, I advise you to put away your little thoughts, otherwise you will be doomed." When Li Si said the last sentence, his eyes were fixed on Zhao Gao.
"You..." Zhao Gao couldn't help but tremble when he heard the words, and then he glanced up secretly, but saw Su Yu looking at him with an inexplicable smile.
At the same time, a huge manor outside Xianyang City was gloomy and mysterious, with dark and open sentries all around. Everyone was wearing black and masked, they were Luowang’s people, and this place was also Luowang’s base.
Suddenly, a red mist floated from the sky in the distance, the color was very light, and it was very difficult to detect under the cover of night, until it was discovered not far from the manor.
"What is that?" A man in black opened his eyes and looked.
"Mist? Why is it red?" The others were also a little surprised.
"I'm afraid it's a trick, you guys go in and take a look." A man in black said.
"Swish..." More than a dozen figures suddenly jumped out from the side and rushed directly into the red mist.
However, the people who went in were silent, and it was not until this time that the others realized the danger.
"Everyone be careful." Everyone retreated.
"Whoosh..." I saw a gust of wind blowing inexplicably, and the red mist that was originally slowly floating suddenly quickly spread towards the manor.
"Send a signal." One person shouted. Then I saw the person next to him take out a bamboo tube from his waist, which was a firework that could send a signal.
"Swish..." Just then, a hidden weapon sounded, and the man fell down with his hand covering his neck.
Then there were plops and plops, and the black-clothed men around fell down one after another.
The person who had asked someone to send the signal before said something bad in his heart, and quickly withdrew and ran towards the manor.
"Where are you running?" Suddenly, a scolding sound came from my ear, and then I felt a chill on my neck, and then I saw the most terrifying scene in my life, a headless body was running forward, and I couldn't help but wonder why that figure was so familiar, and then I fell into nothingness.
"Hmph." The man looked at the head on the ground and snorted coldly.
Then he waved his hand, and several figures appeared from the mist behind him, all in white robes and masks.
"The mist is still too slow. If we are discovered, it will be easy for people to escape. Let's go and fight quickly." The person who had taken action before said, and she was wearing a mask of the red spider lily. It was Jiang Yuyan.
"Yeah." The others nodded, and then the figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.
"Brother Qiao, you and I will stay outside." Jiang Yuyan said to another person wearing a mask with a golden dragon pattern.
"Okay." Qiao Feng replied.
The sound of fighting gradually appeared in the manor. It was obvious that the few people who had just entered were discovered.
Not long after, a man holding a giant blade broke through the wall, raised a cloud of dust, and ran away with the help of the dust.
Qiao Feng saw this and quickly jumped to chase him.
Sheng Qi was running, and his heart and gall were surging. He couldn't imagine that he was repelled by just one blow, but it was also that blow that broke through the wall and gave him a chance to escape.
"Damn, who are these people?" Sheng Qi ran fast, faster than a horse.
Suddenly, he noticed something, looked back, and his pupils shrank violently.
"Dragon... Dragon..."
I saw a golden dragon flying towards him. The huge pressure made Sheng Qi forget to run, and he quickly raised the Juque sword in his hand to resist.
"Roar..."
"Boom..."
Accompanied by a roar, the dragon rushed directly in front of him. How could he resist the huge impact? He was blown away dozens of meters and knocked down several trees.
Then the dragon disappeared, and a figure in a white robe appeared. The figure came in front of Shengqi. At this time, Shengqi was leaning against a broken tree, his chest was heaving violently, and blood was flowing from his eyes, ears, and facial features.
"Puff..." Shengqi spurted blood from his mouth, looked at the person who came, and tried to stand up with the Juque sword in his hand, but fell down again after only half of it.
"You... who are you sentrying? Why?" Shengqi stared at Qiao Feng a little weakly.
"Yuhuang Pavilion, Luowang should be killed." Qiao Feng said.
"So that's it, haha, haha, you are very strong, haha, it's a pity that I..." Shengqi said with a miserable smile, and swallowed it in one breath before he finished speaking. His eyes were still open when he died.
Qiao Feng looked at this person, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, and the confusion in his eyes gradually disappeared, and finally turned into determination.
"Have a good journey." He said lightly, turned around and was about to go back, just at this time he saw the Juque sword in his eyes.
Qiao Feng took the Juque sword in his hand with a dragon-catching hand.
"Good sword." Although he didn't use the sword, he still had a good eye. He could tell at a glance that this was a good sword. Then he flew away with the sword in his hand.
When Qiao Feng flew back to Luowang's residence, he saw that a big fire had already started in the manor, and the sound of fighting was getting smaller and smaller.
"Is it solved?" Jiang Yuyan asked.
"Well, there is still a good sword." Qiao Feng patted the door-like sword and said.
"The man just now should be Shengqi." Jiang Yuyan said. She knows more about the Qin Jianghu than Qiao Feng.
"With such a big fire, will the things the emperor is looking for be in trouble?" Qiao Feng looked at the flames with some worry.
"With Miss Jiang Ni, it should be fine." Jiang Yuyan said.
"I'd better go in and take a look." Qiao Feng said, inserted the Juque sword in his hand into the ground, and then flew into the manor.
Jiang Yuyan shook her head and had no choice but to wave her hands. The fog around her became thicker and slowly surrounded the manor.
After a while, a pink figure rushed through the fog and flew out of the manor.
"Oh, I'm finally done killing. Yuyan, check if I'm dirty." The person who came was Kankan, and she began to look at herself as soon as she landed.
"It's clean. I really can't figure you out. You obviously have mysophobia, but you insist on not wearing shoes." Jiang Yuyan shook her head helplessly and said.
"Hehehe, it's very comfortable without shoes." Kankan laughed.
At this time, another white figure fell, wearing a lily mask, it was Jiang Ni.
After seeing Jiang Ni, the two stopped joking and hurried forward.
"Sister Jiang Ni."
"Well, it's all solved. Let's search for them." Jiang Ni nodded.
After a while, several more people flew out, led by Qiao Feng, who was holding a box tightly in his hand.
The three women breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
Behind Qiao Feng were Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuxue, Lu Xiaofeng and A Fei.
"Haha, refreshing." Lu Xiaofeng laughed.
"Why, you don't seem to have killed as many as me." Ye Gucheng said.
"Tsk..."
"Sister Jiang Ni is really amazing. That strong man suddenly appeared and scared me. Fortunately, you took him away." A Fei said hurriedly.
"In the future, if you encounter such a thing, quickly get out of the way, don't be dazed." Lu Xiaofeng patted A Fei on the shoulder and said.
He knew how powerful Sheng Qi was, and A Fei was definitely not his opponent. If it weren't for Jiang Ni, they would probably suffer a little.
"Look, is this it? We found it in a basement." Qiao Feng handed the box to Jiang Ni.
"I'll take it to the Emperor. Someone should be coming here soon. Yuyan, take everyone back to Baiyujing first." Jiang Ni took the box and said.
"Yes." Jiang Yuyan said.
Then Jiang Ni jumped high and flew away like a big bird.
"Tsk tsk tsk, she's really strong. When can we be like her, so that we can always be with the Emperor." Ye Gucheng said as he looked at Jiang Ni's back.
"Following the Emperor, becoming stronger is only a matter of time. Now we are more than a little stronger than before. We should practice hard so that we won't disappoint the Emperor." Qiao Feng said.
"Well, we know, Brother Qiao." Lu Xiaofeng nodded when he heard it. At this moment, he had never had such an urgent desire to become stronger. These days, following Su Yu, he, Lu Xiaofeng, has seen many talented people, Yue Shen, Xiao Meng, and even Zhang Liang, which one is not stronger than him.
"Let's go." Jiang Yuyan said.
Then several people walked to Jiang Yuyan's side and formed a circle. Then a ray of light appeared on the ground, covering everyone. The light disappeared in an instant, and several people disappeared with it.
The fire in the manor was still burning, and the air was filled with a smell of blood.
"Report..."
In the palace hall, a man dressed as a sergeant suddenly rushed in and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, a fire broke out in the suburbs. After investigation, it was found that it was Luowang's base. Now the city guards have rushed there. Please make a decision, Your Majesty."
"What did you say?" Before Ying Zheng could speak, Zhao Gao stood up excitedly and asked sternly.
"Zhao... Commander Zhao, there was a fire at Luowang base." The man hurriedly repeated.
"Why are you panicking? It's just a Luowang. Zhao Gao, since you are the commander, you go and take a look." Ying Zheng said in a calm tone.
"I'm sorry, I'll go now." Zhao Gao saluted hurriedly. After speaking, he got up and ran out.
I saw him staggering, his back was so desolate.
"Alas, Luowang is over, Zhao Gao, you are also over." Li Si looked at Zhao Gao's back and couldn't help sighing in his heart.
