Chapter 294 Black-armored Soldier
The doors and windows in the Lu family hall and the yellow paper charms affixed to the walls all whirred at this moment.
These methods used to protect the room are useless at this moment, and none of them work.
"Grandfather? What's going on?"
The eldest young master of the Lu family felt a little panicked.
Looking at the current situation, he had some guesses in his mind, but he still couldn't believe it.
"Our noble man is by no means a good person. He values his secrets more important than his life. How could he be willing if I want to tell his identity?"
Lu My grandfather stood up and an extra booklet came out of his hand.
This book is simple, with a yellowish cover and no writing on it.
When the old man held this book in his hands, the surrounding temperature dropped a lot, and there was even a little white frost on the doors and windows of the house, as if winter had entered again.
The eldest young master of the Lu family naturally knows this pamphlet.
This is an heirloom of their Lu family.
The original head of the Lu family was a poor man, just an ordinary citizen, but one day he was lucky enough to enter an empty room underground in Kyoto and got this book.
Since then, it has been a smooth rise, helping the founding emperor to defeat the thieves of the seven countries, and successfully becoming a famous family in Kyoto.
This booklet has also been inherited along the way. To this day, only the head of the Lu family is qualified to use it.
However, in most cases, the power of the Lu family is enough to solve the many troubles they face, without the need for the family head to personally take action.
Over time, this booklet became a decoration of the Lu family and was rarely used.
But this also means that if the heads of the family take out this thing, the Lu family will be at a point of life and death.
The eldest young master of the Lu family finally reacted:
“You want to silence me?!”
"Xiaoyang, pick up the knife." The grandfather of the Lu family said: "They are coming."
The eldest young master of the Lu family opened his mouth wide and his mind was confused.
He thought for a long time, but still had confusion in his mind:
"Grandpa, why didn't you say anything when you saw the Taoist priest?"
"There were so many people around at that time. If I tell the Taoist priest directly, the noble man will definitely know about my informant. It is estimated that when you and I return home, our Lu family mansion will be left in ruins. "
"Then why don't you invite the Taoist priest to come over tomorrow? As long as the Taoist priest is in the Lu family, the noble man will not be able to come."
"The noble man's men have been here long ago." The grandfather of the Lu family sighed: "Otherwise he How could those black knights arrive at the gate of our Lu family so quickly?
"I'm just betting that they won't rush in. I bet that they won't enter our Lu family.
“But now it seems that the noble man is also impatient, and he wants to destroy my Lu family regardless of it.
“Haha, it seems that tonight is the time of life and death for the Lu family. ”
The eldest young master of the Lu family finally reacted.
I am afraid that my grandfather has been prepared to fight to the death even before returning home.
The eldest young master of the Lu family sighed sadly:
"It's difficult, it seems that the Lu family is in doom tonight."
He was frustrated, but he still took out his sword. , following behind the Lu family’s grandfather.
The woman was also confused. She wanted to say something, but the wooden door of the mansion suddenly moved with a roar.
The collision between the wooden door and the wooden frame made the frame sound, disturbing and noisy.
And...
Scream.
The eldest young master of the Lu family can tell that these are all disciples of the Lu family.
There is the lame Kong Laoer. He was originally a swordsman. His leg was broken while traveling in the rivers and lakes, and he came to the Lu family as a retainer.
Now he is shouting heartbreakingly, accompanied by the sound of flesh being cut open.
He also heard the roar of a woman. She was an ugly woman picked up from outside by the eldest young master of the Lu family. She was extremely powerful and had a dull mind. The eldest young master of the Lu family thought she was suitable to be a deadpool, so he brought her back to teach her martial arts.
Today she was indeed loyal and filial, spending her last life in full bloom.
What followed was the sound of the blade falling on bluestone slabs, wooden piles and steel.
The angry roar didn't last long before it suddenly stopped, as if someone had cut its throat.
“Here it comes.”
Grandfather of the Lu family opened the book, a faint light flickering.
He took another deep look at the paintings hanging on the wall. The paintings of the Lu family's ancestors glowed orange-yellow under the candlelight.
Still no movement.
The ancestors will not protect their Lu family, only the weapons in their hands can protect them.
The door of the hall was smashed into pieces with a bang.
A soldier in black armor stood outside the door, silent, holding a long knife.
Gloomy and terrifying.
……
There will be no sleep in Kyoto tonight.
The major families continued to discuss Zuo Chen's "invitation".
From the discussion in the first half of the night to the second half of the night, almost all the nobles agreed on one fact:
Comrades would definitely die in a head-to-head confrontation. After thinking for a long time, most of the families decided to leave Kyoto.
As long as you take the gold and silver treasures, you can have fun wherever you go. The worst you can do is give up your rights in Kyoto and start over.
But where to go, this group of nobles also discussed for a long time.
Youzhou can’t do it, Xuzhou can’t do it, and Yuzhou can’t do it.
After much thought, Qingzhou is the most appropriate.
King Shou has a desire. If you give him money, you can get a good position in Qingzhou.
When the time comes, I will find an opportunity to go to the dense forest, live in seclusion, and still live comfortably.
After discussing the plan, the nobles prepared to evacuate this place.
While he was shouting at his subordinates to move gold and silver, he suddenly saw flames rising into the sky in Kyoto.
The direction of the Lu family is wrong!
Seeing the monstrous fire, many nobles trembled in their hearts.
Is it the Taoist priest who did this? Or a noble person?
No one knows.
However, the fire in Kyoto was like a roaring bell, telling everyone in Kyoto:
The chess players have begun to use Kyoto as the chessboard to play a big chess game. These chess pieces, Already worn and broken by the battle.
The fire burned for half the night. Some families sent spies to the direction of the Lu family. However, most of the spies disappeared without a trace. Only a few families received a special The gift:
The spies were finely cut and cooked under the fire.
It has been warned,
threatening these families who have any strange intentions.
It was not until they saw this cruel method that these families were sure that the Lu family had been killed by a nobleman.
They also immediately restrained their thoughts and did not even dare to escape.
However, under the cover of the fire, a figure still ran out from the Lu family.
He escaped from the sea of fire along the special secret passage in the artificial lake in the Lu Family Courtyard, and swam breathlessly to the scenic river crossing Kyoto, where he stumbled ashore.
This is a young man, whose sleeves have been burned to tatters by the flames. He does not show any sign of dignity at all. The dogs and beggars on the roadside all look better than him.
There was a book in his arms. It had just been taken out of the water, and no water stains could be seen at all. It looked like new.
This person is the eldest young master of the Lu family.
He leaned against the shore, breathing heavily, leaning his body against the wall to regain his strength.
The moonlight shone on his body, revealing his messy clothes and the hideous wounds underneath his clothes.
At that time, his mother stood in front of the black-armored soldiers and was cut in half by a sword directly along the middle, evenly divided into two parts.
And the blinding technique his mother used to face the black-armored soldiers before she died also successfully gave the eldest son of the Lu family a chance to survive.
The blinding technique caused the black-armored soldiers to have some problems controlling the distance. The sweeping long knife only scratched the skin of the eldest young master of the Lu family, but did not kill him. He just Taking advantage of this time, I jumped into the lake.
Thinking of the scene in his family just now, the eldest young master of the Lu family could not help but feel a sense of absurdity and desolation in his heart.
Only five black-armored soldiers came in total, and they actually slaughtered the entire Lu family!
The Lu family is a wealthy family in Kyoto, and the retainers who guard the courtyard are also very skillful. His grandfather was even more miraculous in holding the book, but he still couldn't stop these soldiers.
They were like old farmers chopping watermelons at the vegetable market. They raised their knives high, chopped them off hard, and used their hands and feet to help, tearing the person apart from the middle.
Like a terrifying nightmare.
After resting for a while to regain his strength, the eldest young master of the Lu family gritted his teeth and pushed himself up.
He still has things to do.
Now that the Lu family has been destroyed, if he continues to lie down here, he will definitely be killed by the black-armored soldiers who chase him.
But if he can find the Taoist priest, there is still a chance of survival!
Hold on for dear life and move forward awkwardly, following the familiar path in memory, towards the direction of Yaochi Tower.
Now is the ugly time. Except for the watchmen, there is no one else on the street. Kyoto, which was once bustling with activity, is now as quiet as a ghost market, eerie and terrifying.
After running two steps forward tiredly, he suddenly heard the sound of heavy armor falling to the ground from behind.
The eldest young master of the Lu family turned around in shock.
It was then that I realized that a black-armored soldier was already chasing me.
He didn't even take a step to chase, he just strolled like a cat chasing a mouse, slowly walking towards the eldest young master of the Lu family.
Fear has filled the heart of the eldest young master of the Lu family, and he is still far away from Yaochi Tower.
I'm afraid he can't run past it.
In despair, the eldest young master of the Lu family closed his eyes, and shouted loudly:
"I know your identity! Taoist Master Zuo Chen, save me!"< br>
Hearing this, the black-armored soldiers sneered muffledly under their armor.
The long knife was raised high above his head, the surface of the knife glowing coldly under the moonlight.
The eldest young master of the Lu family stared desperately at the mirror-like blade.
Suddenly,
he saw a shadow on the clean blade.
It seems...
Behind the black-armored soldier, a Taoist priest is coming!
