The prince is very fierce

The night rain was pouring on the top of the stone bridge.

Xu Bu Ling held his long sword and pointed it diagonally at the ground. Rainwater fell from the edge of the sword, and his eyes were extremely cautious and focused.

The black shadow was seriously injured by the punch just now, but his hands did not tremble at all. He took out another dagger from his waist, bowed like a cheetah ready to attack, and stared at Xu Buling.

"You can't kill me, why don't you leave?"

Xu Bu Ling's chest was trembling, but his eyes didn't change. He just stared at the other party lightly.

If the black shadow wanted to leave, he would have already left after being knocked off the stone bridge just now. Since he didn't leave, he must be determined to fight to the death. At this time, he didn't say a word and moved slightly on his toes.

Xu Bu Ling's eyes narrowed, and he took action in advance to strike first, but he never thought that there was another sound of strings coming from behind, heading straight for his lower back.

Having already seen the power of this thing, Xu Buling immediately turned the edge of his sword and struck at the back.

At this moment, the black shadow stepped on the stone bridge with both feet, and the whole person turned into an afterimage. The two daggers reached Xu Buling's throat and heart at an incredible speed.

Ning Yuhe screamed, completely unexpected that this killer was so cunning. The sword slashed backwards and opened the middle door. It was extremely difficult to block the assassin who was going all out. It was too late for her to support him.

At the critical moment, Xu Buring threw away his sword again to block the iron wire behind his back. He made fists with both hands and accurately held the black shadow's wrist. His shoulder directly hit the black shadow's arms and hit him with a stick. go out.

Xu Buling went all out and didn't hold back at all. This was not something ordinary people could resist.

The black shadow spurted a mouthful of blood on the face towel, and flew backwards again. The tip of his shoe kicked Xu Buring's neck in mid-air, and a sharp blade popped out from the top of the boot.

Xu Bu Ling reacted very quickly. He didn't waste time to follow up and hit the target. He quickly dodged sideways, and the toe of his shoe almost grazed the underside of his neck. If he was too late, his throat would be cut.

Bang——

The shadow broke several more sections of the guardrail, but still stabbed the bridge with the dagger and turned over, standing in the rain staring at Xu Buling.

Xu Bu Ling's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he was sure to kill every move. If he hadn't been the one standing here today, he would have died more than a dozen times. His opponent was incredibly strong.

But after all, people are not invulnerable. There are almost no people in the world who can still stand after being hit twice.

The black shadow was obviously at the end of his strength. He was holding the dagger up and down. He hesitated for a moment and then rushed forward again. Unfortunately, as soon as he took two steps, he fell to the ground and the dagger fell out.

Until now, the black shadow had not made any sound.

Xu Buling wiped the cold sweat and rain from his forehead with his sleeve, picked up the umbrella from the ground, opened it, walked closer carefully, lowered his head and looked at it:

"Who are you? Who sent you?"

When Ning Yuhe saw his opponent lying down, he trotted up to him, his face turned pale and he was still frightened.

The black figure was as slender as a woman, lying on the rain-covered stone bridge. After a moment of silence, she coughed twice and spoke for the first time:

"Don't go to Changxingcang. There are assassins ambushing you, who are more powerful than me."

Xu Buling and Ning Yuhe both frowned when they heard this. They didn't believe the assassin's words at all. It wasn't that they didn't believe there were assassins in Changxingcang, but they didn't believe there were assassins more powerful than this woman in the world.

There are probably only a few people in the world who can beat Xu Buling to the point where cold sweat breaks out on his forehead.

The shadow's voice was very low. After that, he was speechless. He closed his eyes and waited for death.

Xu Buling felt that the voice sounded familiar. He hesitated for a moment, picked up the sword and held it in his hand. He squatted down in front of the woman and raised his hand to pull away the black cloth covering his face.

The woman obviously wanted to struggle, but she could no longer muster the strength. After exposing her cheek, her eyes showed a bit of pleading:

"It has nothing to do with my daughter. My son is morally responsible. Killing me is enough."

Ning Yuhe looked at Meng Hua and was stunned for a moment, but he was not too surprised. After all, it was too common for Jianghu people to hide in the market. Just thinking about this kind-faced landlady and a little girl, I couldn't help but feel nervous:

"Meng Hua, why is it you?"

Meng Hua said nothing.

Xu Buling frowned and thought for a moment: "You know I am moral, why do you want to kill me? Do you have a grudge against me?"

Meng Hua breathed weakly: "I didn't want to kill you at first, but later I couldn't beat you. Otherwise, at least one of you will be seriously injured."

Xu Buling had no doubts about this statement. Just now he heard the sound of the trap. The iron wire was drawn in the direction of his chest and back. Even if he was hit, it would be equivalent to being slashed and he would not die. If you really have murderous intentions, it is obviously more appropriate to aim the iron wire at your neck and calves, and it is also more difficult to dodge.

However, stabbing him for no reason was obviously not worthy of forgiveness. This explanation obviously did not work.

"Looking at the methods just now, you should be the Ghost Empress. You have already retired from the world incognito. The family of three is harmonious and beautiful. Why do you want to come out to commit suicide? What will your daughter do in the future?"

Ning Yuhe's mother died in the hands of the Tang family. Knowing how painful it is to lose a loved one, she really envied Meng Hua's small life of opening a shop with her daughter while eating in a small shop. At this time, she thought about it and interjected:

"Your Majesty, forget it, the Ghost Empress is a knight, and she kills corrupt officials..."

Xu Buling raised his hand to stop him and said softly:

"A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people; a small chivalrous person serves as a friend or neighbor. I have a clear conscience for what I have done. Why should I be killed by a chivalrous man? What's more, I am the Crown Prince of Su, and you have done something to me." The sword is meant to kill the Nine Clans."

Meng Hua was silent for a moment and looked at Xu Buling: "My husband-in-law is involved in Dayinglou and he is obsessed with it. Please spare his life. I owe you a favor and I will repay you in my next life."

Xu Buling heard this and understood the reason a little bit, and thought about it:

"You are so powerful, why didn't you stop your husband from dying?"

"He doesn't know my identity, and I don't want him to know. Life is not easy now... I have withdrawn from the world. I don't want to step in again, and I don't want this girl to know that her mother has killed people... I have killed many corrupt officials. , know where they hide their money..."

"Do you think it's useful for me to ask for money?"

"..."

Meng Hua fell silent, hesitated for a long time, and then whispered:

"My parents are dead, so I have no one to take care of me..."

Ning Yuhe pursed his lips and gently pushed Xu Buling's shoulder: "As long as we are fine, we must be merciful and merciful..."

Xu Buling shook his head: "I am not a good person. Anyone who dares to point a knife at me today will definitely dare to kill me tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will dare to kill my whole family, so everyone who used a knife on me is dead. You didn't If your husband dares to take action, you must be murderous. Tell me about your husband's ambush. I will be moral and let you live. It's your choice. "

"Your Majesty!"

Ning Yuhe was obviously a little angry, and raised his hand to push Xu Buling.

Meng Hua didn't hesitate: "Let him live. Master, scare him. Don't let him wander into the world. He can't take this road. His nature is not bad."

Xu Buring nodded, took out the small bottle from his arms, and poured out a pill:

"This is Dragon Locking Gu. It can make you recover from your injuries in a short time, but it will kill you after a year. If you eat it, I will let your husband go and let your family of three be reunited for a while."

Meng Hua took a few breaths, raised her hand hard, stuffed it into her mouth and swallowed:

"Thank you for your kindness, sir."

"What weapon does your husband use?"

"The ring-shou knife is three feet six long. It is hidden on the roof of the second house in Changxingcang."

Xu Buling sighed, stood up and walked off the stone arch bridge. After thinking for a while, he turned back and said:

"If your husband disobeys, just give him a beating. It's better than having your family destroyed. You can take care of yourself."

Ning Yuhe couldn't bear it, but had no choice but to leave with Xu Buling.

The night rain continued, and the stone bridge became quiet.

The figure lying on the ground coughed a few times. After a long time, he slowly got up, picked up the dagger on the ground, thought about it, threw it into the river, and slowly disappeared into the night...
