Chapter 213 Killing the spy

Yang Shucheng was thinking about Mulan when he heard Li Xing say: "They came out."

"How to do?"

"After they have gone far, let's go ask the hunter what's going on. Then we make a decision." Li Xing said.

The four of them watched the two men leading the horses and walking away from a distance. The four people immediately went down the mountain and soon arrived in front of the hunter's house.

The hunter came out and let the four people into the house.

After a few words, Li Xing asked him: "This Taoist priest Jinguan just now is a traitor. He has defected to the Qing Dynasty and killed our Han people. Who is the other person he is following? What are they going to do?"

The hunter said: "This man is not from here, and he can't understand what he says. However, he can understand what we say here. He can understand everything that Taoist Master Jin Guan said."

"What did they say?"

The hunter said: "They say that they sleep during the day and walk at night along the Yangtze River. They want to go to General Huang and persuade him. I don't understand."

Li Xing said: "Yes, the imperial court transferred General Huang Degong from the Huaihe River to the Yangtze River to guard against Zuo Liangyu. This Taoist Priest Jinguan was originally going to persuade Zuo Liangyu to surrender, but we destroyed it. Now he is going to persuade Huang Degong to surrender."

"What should I do?"

"We can't let them succeed. The four towns in Jiangbei are to defend against the Qing army. If they succeed in persuading them to surrender, a big hole will be opened in the Jianghuai defense line. You have also seen how powerful the Qing soldiers are. How could Nanjing be able to defend against this."

"I'll steal his golden crown again." Bai Yuyao came up with an idea.

Li Xing said: "This matter cannot be separated. In this way, Leader Yue and I will work together to entangle Golden Crown Taoist Master Cheng Tuding. You two will assassinate this spy."

"Okay." The three of them agreed unanimously.

So, I resigned from the hunter and didn't have any dinner. They rode on their horses respectively, Yue Juan rode Yang Shucheng's horse, Yang Shucheng and Bai Yuyao rode together on one horse, and Li Xing rode alone on the horse and came down from Baihu Mountain.

When we came out of Baihu Mountain, the full moon shone brightly everywhere. After walking for a while, the two figures of Jinguan Taoist Master disappeared.

Now that he knew their plot, he ran eastward along the Yangtze River.

Along the way, the river breeze blew on my body, which was very cool. The three horses were full of food and drink, and were running forward on the official road at a galloping speed.

After running for more than half an hour, there was no one on the road.

From a distance, I saw two figures in front of me. It must be the two of them, Taoist Priest Jin Guan.

The three men whipped the horse, and the horse ran forward like a whirlwind.

The two people in front had already heard the sound of rapid running. Unaware of the situation, they reined in their horses and waited for Li Xing and the others to arrive.

Li Xing and the others rushed forward, drew their swords, and shouted: "Traitor, take your life."

Sure enough, according to the previous plan, Li Xing and Yue Juan surrounded the Golden Crown Taoist Priest.

Taoist Priest Jin Guan knew Li Xing and knew that he was not from the same group, so he was not polite and drew his sword to greet him.

When the Qing spy saw the two men running towards him, he knew they were not friends but enemies, so he was not afraid. He drew his long sword and rushed towards them.

Yang Shucheng and Bai Yuyao fought against the Qing spy. The spy was tall and tall, with a strong body. He held a big knife and faced the two men without giving in. Both sides rolled over and over to kill for more than 20 rounds, regardless of the outcome.

The spy's sword was powerful and powerful, and the long sword danced like a whir of wind. Yang Shucheng and the other two could only look at the gap and stab it forward.

Over there, Li Xing and Yue Juan competed in a double battle with Jin Guan Dao. Seeing that the Qing generals could handle it, Taoist Priest Jin Guan didn't take care of him, and only wanted to kill Li Xing and the two.

The two couldn't fight for a long time, and they were anxious. Li Xing used his special skills. That Yue Juan had no choice but to use the "Five Thunder Strikes to the Top" magical skill.

He handed the sword to his left hand and swung out his right palm. Five thunderbolts were struck in succession, hitting Taoist Priest Jinguan's head directly.

The Golden Crown Taoist did not dare to be careless and used his special skills to deal with it. He opened his mouth and spit out five lotus flowers, which flew above his head to block the five thunders. This move is called "vomiting lotus flowers from the mouth."

I saw thunder and lightning flashing above the head of the golden-crowned Taoist Priest, and lotus flowers were turning. It was very beautiful.

Li Xing took this opportunity, swung his long sword, and stabbed directly at Taoist Priest Jin Guan with the "Changhong Guan Sun" move.

The Golden Crown Taoist shouted: "Well done." He swung his sword and intercepted Li Xing's desperate blow.

Seeing that the "Five Thunder Strikes" could not hurt him, Yue Juan had no choice but to use her unique moves and cooperated with Li Xing to cling to Taoist Priest Jin Guan.

Over there, the spies of the Qing Dynasty looked at the lively fight here, and couldn't help but think, no wonder the prince wanted to give him a golden crown, this man also has some abilities.

Although the spy was ferocious, Yang Shucheng's longevity swordsmanship was also excellent. He and Bai Yuyao's Qinggong skills were also good. The two of them cooperated with each other and stabbed around the spy with one sword after another, leaving the spy with no chance to breathe.

Over there, Taoist priest Jin Guan was entangled by two people and couldn't break free for a while. While he was in a hurry, he saw Bai Yuyao also go around behind the spy and stab him with a sword.

The spy knew that Bai Yuyao was attacking from behind. He turned around sharply and was about to fight Bai Yuyao. He was not prepared for Yang Shucheng to stab him from the front. Hitting him in the waist, the sword was drawn out, and blood came out.

It turned out that Yang Shucheng saw the opportunity and used a trick called "Hou Yi shoots the sun". How could the spy resist?

It was too late, but it was too soon. Bai Yuyao took advantage of his distraction and stabbed him with a sword, hitting him in the chest. After pulling out the sword, the spy fell to the ground, motionless.

The Golden Crown Taoist was so horrified that it was already too late to save him. Yang Shucheng and his two men were already approaching with their swords raised.

The Golden Crown Taoist priest only blamed himself for his carelessness. When he came, he was alone and did not bring any disciples. Now when he saw two people coming to kill him, he had to fight one against four and started a massacre.

Four people surrounded him and fought. Yue Juan pulled out and fired with her left and right hands. Ten thunderbolts in the air exploded towards the head of Taoist Priest Jin Guan.

Taoist Master Jin Guan was opening his mouth to "vomit lotus flowers from his mouth", but just as he was about to open his mouth, the three long swords of Li Xing and the others stabbed at him with lightning speed.

No matter how good the Golden Crown Taoist swordsmanship was, how could he withstand the siege of four people? He had no choice but to turn around and run away.

He escaped from the encirclement, grabbed a horse, and beat it away.

Li Xing and others did not pursue them either.

Something has happened here. Yue Juan is going to the north to find the almighty leader Ma Rui. Leave it at that.

Yang Shucheng was reluctant to leave and had to say: "Master Yue, if you meet Taoist Jinguan on the way, you must not fight with him."

"I know." Yue Juan agreed and rode north.

Here, Li Xing and three others rode towards the east.

Don’t dare to delay along the way. After walking for seven or eight days, we arrived at Wuhu, which was Huang Degong's defense line. Since the imperial court sent him to stop Zuo Liangyu's troops, he defended along the river, fearing that spies would sneak in.

Li Xing and the others could not pass, so they had to walk north for another five or six days. They came to the area where Liu Liangzuo and Huang Degong's defenses were intertwined, and passed between the two soldiers.

Then walk south, come to the Yangtze River, pass through Caishiji, and enter the realm of Yingtianfu, not far from Nanjing City.

On this day, we crossed the Yangtze River and walked along the sandy road along the river. It was already dusk, and I saw a village beside the cliff by the river. Smoke curled up from the roofs of people's houses, and the grazing cattle and sheep slowly walked towards the village.

At this time, I saw several villagers carrying baskets on their backs, holding fire tongs, and lowered their heads, as if they were looking for something?

The three of them were going to rest in the village and led their horses forward. When they came to the group, Bai Yuyao asked them curiously:

"Brothers, what are you looking for?"

The group looked up and one of them said, "We're catching toads."

A toad is a toad with pustules all over its body. Thinking about it makes me sick. Bai Yuyao asked:

"What's the use of catching toads? Do they need to be used as medicine?"

The group of people said: "Looking at the accent, you must be from somewhere else. The emperor wants these toads, and they cost a penny each."

"The emperor wants a toad?"

"Yes, the emperor wants the toad to make pills."

"Thinking about this toad makes me sick. The emperor has a body of ten thousand gold, so he needs to use toads as medicine. Could it be that the emperor has some strange disease?"

The group of villagers laughed loudly and said, "The emperor is very strong. He wants the toad to make a spring elixir."

Another villager saw that they came from other places and knew nothing, so he became even more enthusiastic and explained: "Dry these toads, extract the crisp inside, and refine spring medicine. It is very powerful. I heard that the woman who was favored by the emperor, Several people died."
