Chapter 85 Tianjian Pill(1/3)
Chapter 85
"Swoosh!" The black feather arrow shot out instantly like a black lightning.
In almost the blink of an eye, the man's back had already arrived. Just when Zi Chen and Yu'er thought they would pierce through the man's back, they saw the man suddenly slashing the man's backhand with an arrow.
The feather arrow that was shot out quickly was cut off on the spot, but the powerful recoil force actually made the man's wrist numb. The figure that was originally swept forward staggered and fell directly from mid-air.
A backflip was completed in the air and landed on the roof in a kneeling position, shattering the tiles on the roof.
Seeing such a scene, Zi Chen and Shangguan Yu'er were both shocked, especially Zi Chen. Although he did not use the Star Arrow, the power of his bow and arrow was enough to penetrate the man's body at such a close distance. Who would have thought that he would fly his lightning-fast arrow with a backhand sword?
You know, at that time, his body was still in mid-air and had nowhere to leverage. With a single arrow flying, his body could react quickly and land steadily on the roof. This level of cultivation made Zi Chen feel shocked.
Where does such a master come from?
After a moment of shock, Zi Chen quickly took out a second feather arrow from the storage ring and put it on the bowstring. When he was aiming at the man, he saw that the man turned around, with a black cloth covering his face, and he couldn't see clearly. However, Zi Chen could clearly see his cold eyes, which were emotionally unconscious eyes.
Without any hesitation, Zi Chen loosened the bowstring again.
With a "buzz!", a black meteor shot out like lightning, shooting directly into the figure's face.
Faced with such an arrow, the man quickly waved the iron sword in his hand and slashed at the black meteor at full speed.
A "swish" sound made Zi Chen extremely shocked. The iron sword in the man's hand actually cut his feather arrow as fast as a meteor into two halves. The two feather arrows flew out from both sides of his ears, not hurting him at all. Instead, with the help of the power of the arrow, he flipped his body back and jumped off the eaves and disappeared from Zi Chen's vision.
Zi Chen and Shangguan Yu'er both looked at each other. Where did such a master come from? Why did he attack Lord Wanyun? Could it be that Wanyun Pavilion has what he needs?
He wanted to ask Dahei to follow him and take a look, but in front of Shangguan Yuer, he still didn't want to expose two talking rabbits. At this moment, there were rapid footsteps outside, and then he heard the sound of breaking in. Zi Chen knew that it should be the constable from Chang'an City that was about to arrive.
"Let's go..." Zi Chen, who didn't want to cause trouble, jumped directly from the window. The distance of five or six meters was nothing to him.
"Don't you care about your friend?" Shangguan Yu'er looked back curiously, but she didn't see Lin Xubai following him.
"He is your brother, go and take him away!" Zi Chen didn't look back.
"Forget it, there is no one who asks my sister to take care of my brother. He wants to be blessed!" Shangguan Yuer simply shook her head, jumped up and jumped down from the building. As for Lin Xubai's life and death, they would not care about it.
Anyway, given Zi Chen’s understanding of Lin Xubai, not to mention a group of constables, I am afraid that if the city defense force of Chang'an City is dispatched, this guy can find a way to leave?
At the beginning, neither of the giant pythons left him, how could these ordinary warriors do it?
Although Zi Chen had never learned martial arts, his physical strength was too strong and he ran as fast as the wind. The constables who came did not even find his shadow, and he had already arrived on another street.
Walking on the streets where people were coming and going, Zi Chen was puzzled. He wanted to get some materials to test Lin Xubai's ability, but who knew that he had encountered such a thing. If he hadn't run fast enough, who would have known what trouble would have caused.
But now that Wanyun Pavilion has been kicked in a bunch, where should he get some spiritual medicine? Shaking his head, Zi Chen decided to go home and ask his father.
When he was walking towards Zi Mansion, he was about to reach Zi Mansion, Zi Chen realized something was wrong? Someone must have seen him entering Wanyun Pavilion. Now he left directly in order not to cause trouble. So will the constables think that they were fleeing for fear of crime?
Just as Zi Chen figured this out, he saw a large group of detectives chasing him, and his heart suddenly felt cold. It was over, this time his intelligence was misled by intelligence.
I was still brewing in my mind for a while, and I heard Lin Xubai's voice from afar: "Brother Zi, how about it? Have you caught the murderer?"
Zi Chen looked up and saw Lin Xubai chasing him by a group of detectives. He was still far away.
Zi Chen, who had been able to act in a scene and deceive Ye Zhihan not long ago, immediately understood Lin Xubai's meaning. Not only did he not mean to escape, he took the initiative to walk towards the group of detectives.
"No, I shot two arrows from him, but he avoided them. How about it, do you have any clues?" Zi Chen shook his head and said.
"No, hey, why are we so unlucky? We just went to buy something. We encountered such a thing. Not only did we not buy something, but we were misunderstood by someone to be the murderer. Constable Li, this is the young master of General Ziyang, Zi Chen, do you think that as Master Zi Chen, would you kill someone to Wanyun Pavilion for something? Even if you really want to kill someone to silence him, do you think that as Master Zi Chen, you will take action personally?" Lin Xubai pointed at Zi Chen with one hand and sighed.
A leading constable flashed with confusion in his eyes. When they heard someone report the case, they said that Wanyun Pavilion had died, they rushed over quickly. Finally, they saw the corpse on the ground and a man in a white robe. He didn't have a Chang'an accent, so he naturally regarded him as a suspect. Who knew that he actually claimed to be a friend of Zi Chen, the general Zi Yang, who came here just to buy something. He happened to encounter someone committing an assault, and Zi Chen followed him in person.
The constable naturally didn't believe it, so he took him to Zifu to ask someone. Who knew that he had met this person on the way.
"Are you really Mr. Zi Chen?" The constable was just a ninth-rank official. Not to mention that Zi Chen is now a third-class nobleman and a military chief lieutenant. Even if he was just the former Zi family's concubine, he would not be able to offend him, a small constable.
"Yeah!" Zi Chen nodded, took out the token of his Zi family's son and handed it to the constable. Seeing the purple jade plaque, the constable's expression was even more respectful.
"I'm sorry, Master Zi, we are just doing things impartially. I offended your friend just now, please forgive me!" Since this person is Zi Chen's friend, it is naturally impossible to be the murderer. After all, as Master Zi's identity, there is no need to do such a thing.
"It's okay, but you just said you received a report from someone?" Zi Chen shook his head. As long as the other party doesn't regard him as the murderer, what is this misunderstanding?
"Yeah, it was a beggar who came to report the case. According to him, a man in a brocade dress asked him to report the case!" The constable said with a respectful look on his face. Of course, he did not say that if something happened to Wanyun Pavilion, they would not care if they had not been a beggar who reported the case.
"I understand, you can continue to handle the case! I will notify you if there is any news here!"
"Thank you, Mr. Zi!" The detective waved his hand respectfully at Zi Chen and led his subordinates to leave quickly.
After they all left, Lin Xubai then came up and said to Zi Chen: "What's wrong? Have you seen something?"
"I just thought that those people will die for no more than a quarter of an hour. How could anyone report the case in such a short time? Even if the murderer wants to blame me, it will not be so fast?" Zi Chen frowned tightly.
"Can't it be the one who really wants to blame the person who was shocked by you and was just happened to be caught up by us?" Shangguan Yu'er came over.
"It's very likely, forget it, we are not constables, what does this matter have to do with us? Let's go home first!" Zi Chen shook his head and did not continue thinking about it.
No matter who wants to blame or what is the reason why Wanyun Pavilion was destroyed, what does it have to do with him? If he hadn't seen the eight-year-old girl also killed, he wouldn't have even shot those two arrows.
"Well, let's go back first, go back and continue to sleep!" Lin Xubai nodded repeatedly. He is still sleepy.
After the two of them finished speaking, they walked towards the Zi Mansion, but saw Shangguan Yu'er not wanting to leave at all, but followed them directly, seeing that this attitude was to go back to the Zi Mansion with them.
"I said to Miss Yu'er, we're going home, what are you doing with us? Could it be that you really want to marry me?" Zi Chen stopped and looked at the girl who claimed to be Shangguan Yu'er speechlessly.
"Of course, you saved my life, and I have nothing to repay you, I can only promise you!" Shangguan Yu'er looked for granted, and her big eyes were blinking in the naive world.
"..." Zi Chen was speechless. What's this?
It’s already inexplicable to get back a Lin Xubai. Now I have to get back a girl who has no idea of the origin? In addition to those two elusive rabbits, do I still have any private space?
"Besides, even if you don't want to marry me, I will be with my brother. Wherever my brother is, I will be there!" As if seeing Zi Chen's refusal, Shangguan Yuer went forward intimately and took Lin Xubai's arm, and said in a delicate voice: "Yes, brother!"
"Yeah!" Hearing Shangguan Yuer's delicate voice, Lin Xu's bones were all weak, and he could tell the difference between the south, south, west and north.
He didn't have the awareness of being a guest at all, as if Zi Mansion was his home.
Zi Chen was speechless for such a guy who was fond of his roots and was too lazy to say anything. He raised his legs and walked towards the house.
Shangguan Yu'er was happy and immediately let go of Lin Xubai and chased after him...
"Hey, even if you want to cross the river and destroy the bridge, you have to wait until you cross the river before demolishing it?" Lin Xubai shouted with confusion when he saw Yu'er running towards Zi Chen like the wind, but Shangguan Yu'er didn't even look back. Helpless Lin Xubai had to follow him with heavy steps.
None of the three of them would have thought that this simple encounter brought them into a huge trouble...
The Chang'an Luo River is a river running through Chang'an. Compared with the moat, this river is much wider, and there are many boat shops parked on the Luo River. Just like the boat shops on the Qinhuai River, the most famous brothels in the entire Chang'an City are here. Compared with the brothels located in Chang'an City, the brothels here are obviously more than a few levels of high-endness. People who have not reached a certain status are not qualified to step into the boat shops here. Even the cheapest boat shops on the Luo River are just enough to survive for an ordinary people's home for a year.
As for the highest-end shipyards, they are not something that can be entered with money.
The most famous of them is Hongchenfang.
Hongchenfang, this is a shipyard transformed by a Tang Dynasty warship. The captain is more than 100 meters wide and more than ten battles are divided into three levels. The four most famous prostitutes in Chang'an gathered on this shipyard.
For the princes and nobles in Chang'an City, whether they can step into the Hongchen Square is also a symbol of their status.
At this time, in broad daylight, it was not yet time for Hongchenfang to open, but the huge hull had already left the shore and came to the center of the Luo River.
On the floor of the tallest building of Chuanfang, there is a very luxuriously decorated pavilion called Yanyu Pavilion. This pavilion has never been opened to anyone. Even those princes and princes, if they are not legal, they will never enter this pavilion. This also shows how strong the backstage of this Hongchen Pavilion is.
At this time, three men wearing luxurious brocade robes were sitting in the Yanyu Pavilion surrounded by windows.
The one sitting on the far left was wearing a purple brocade robe, a white jade crown on his head, and a jade brocade belt around his waist. He had a faint smile on his handsome face. He looked handsome and elegant, but the cold expression in his eyes was inadvertently chilling.
This person is Zi Chen’s elder brother, Zi Lie, who has now been named General Wu Lie!
Opposite him, there was also a man in brocade clothes sitting. However, compared to Zi Lie's clothes, this person's dress was much simpler. Apart from the brocade clothes and robe on his body, there was no other decoration, and even his hair was dispersed.
It seems casual and free.
His face was a little pale, which was a kind of sick white. He coughed from time to time and seemed to have some serious illness. This person was the only son of General Changsun Ce today, and the ghost son Changsun Wuhui, known as one of the four heroes of the imperial city.
The name of the Ghost Young Master is not that he looks like a sick man, but his unpredictable wisdom. Even when General Changsun Ce, who is famous for his plan, he exclaimed from the bottom of his heart when he mentioned his only son, he said that my son's plan is far above me.
Although General Changsun Ce intended to praise his beloved son, Changsun Wuhui's almost evil strategies had already caused Chang'an's nobles and boys to suffer a lot.
Moreover, the major countries in the southern Tang Dynasty are now in conflict, which is also due to his strategy.
For the young masters in Chang'an, they would rather offend the prince than offend the ghost prince.
If you offend the prince, you will be killed at most, but if you offend the Gui Gongzi, you may not even know how to die. From this, you can imagine the reputation of Gui Gongzi.
As for the man sitting in the middle, he was wearing a silver-white brocade robe. Looking from the collar, he could vaguely see the bright yellow underwear inside, with a feather crown on his head and a dragon belt around his waist.
In the Tang Empire, only the royal family could embroider the dragon pattern on the clothes, and the only one who could wear bright yellow clothes was the crown prince of the current dynasty except His Majesty.
This person is the current crown prince, Li Zixun!
The three of them are extremely noble. Needless to say, the prince is the future emperor of the Tang Empire. The Changsun family is a hereditary duke. Although the Zi family has risen for only a hundred years in the Lobby Empire, it has become a prominent family of marquises with several generations of successive generations, especially Zi Yang's countless military achievements.
In particular, Zi Yang is the leader of the four generals. During the special period, he was almost qualified to command the Tang army. This is definitely a marquis with extremely high value. Even those princes and dukes should respectfully call him General when they see Zi Yang.
As the eldest sons of the family, the three of them will inherit everything from their father in the future.
The three of them have similar status. No matter how long Changsun Wuhui's father and the prince's mother, Zi Lie's mother is a brother-sister relationship. The three have had a very good relationship since childhood. It is often true that three people gather together to have fun. However, at this moment, there is not much joy on their faces, and they don't even ask the beauty to accompany them. They just sit quietly in Yanyu Pavilion and look at the scenery outside the window.
"Zi Lie, I heard that your useless brother and the fourth brother returned to Chang'an together?" After a while, His Royal Highness, who was sitting in the middle, spoke first.
The voice was warm, as if it was just ordinary chat.
"Yes, I never thought that his life was so great that he could come back from the grassland and happened to save the Fourth Prince and destroy his good deeds. I'm so sorry!" Zi Lie sighed.
"Haha, what's the relationship between the three of us? I'm sorry, I'm not blaming you. I'm just curious. I can't practice martial arts? How could he come back alive from the grassland? And I heard that he brought people into the purple mansion last night, openly picking you and your aunt, and it seems that he had a conflict with you?" His Royal Highness asked with concern.
"It's because this kid has been born with divine power since he was a child. His father created a star bow for him, which is extremely powerful. If he was given a certain distance, I might not be able to avoid his bow and arrow! That night, if my father hadn't suddenly come back, I would have fought him head-on!" Zi Lie shook his head, and wanted to say the terrible aura emitted by Zi Chen that day, but when he thought of the seemingly terrible punch that was easily resolved by his father, he didn't continue.
To be continued...
