Chapter 30 Yan Shaoting
"It's just a trick."
Facing the rapid attack of two people, Cao Jinxing sat still with his lower body, only raising his right hand and swinging the sword continuously. No matter how fierce their attack was, the sword was as majestic and motionless as an iceberg.
As soon as the linked horseman stretched out his hand, Cao Jinxing's long sword had already passed through the gap between the two men's attacks, pointed directly at his arm, and slashed past quickly.
Sizzle——
Two figures and four hands were all chopped off!
The phantom clone is shattered!
The severed hand froze into an ice sculpture in an instant and hit the table with a dull thud.
"ah!"
The linked horses screamed.
The cold sword energy penetrated into the bones along the broken arm, like a knife cutting or a needle piercing, causing him to spasm and tremble uncontrollably.
Another one wasted...
Smiling Tiger became anxious and ruthless. He used the special properties of the black iron gloves in his hands to grab the body of the [Xue Po] sword and held it tightly in his hand!
The Yin Qi in the sword penetrated into his hand bones, and the Smiling Tiger's arm instantly turned ice blue, and his entire face turned purple from the cold: "Hurry up and strike!"
Smiling Tiger shouted loudly.
Wuchang Pig uses his power and slaps out with one palm!
"Five Evil Palms"!
This palm technique is extremely vicious. Anyone who is hit by it will be affected by the five evil spirits: Sky-high Evil, Short Life Evil, Jijiao Evil, Jieming Evil and Tuiming Evil. Their qi and blood will be weakened and they will surely die!
Cao Jinxing sneered, increased the icy sword energy with one hand, and used the other hand to slap out a move called "Paiyun Palm" - tearing the sky and clearing the clouds!
With two palms facing each other, the power of "Five Evil Palms" cannot break through the defense at all!
The Impermanence Pig flew backwards immediately, seriously injured; the Smiling Tiger's body was stiff, and was surrounded by evil spirits.
Cao Jinxing fought two people at once and severely injured both of them!
at this time.
Lianhuanma gritted his teeth and attacked. He kicked the box up with one foot and then kicked it out of the window. A black shadow quickly took it and turned away!
——It is the “Five-Step Snake” hiding in the dark.
"Stay here!"
Cao Jinxing stood up and used the "Ba Dao" sword move with the Xuepo Sword. The sword was so sharp that it instantly cut into pieces all the tables and chairs in the room and slashed towards her back!
If this move hits, the five-step snake will be dismembered on the spot!
At the critical moment, Han Tianlong took Lu Kunlun's move "Kang Long You Hui" head-on, dodged and blocked in front of the Five-Step Snake, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and activated the protective qi, which was the defensive skill "Tian Gang Yuan Qi"!
The sword light hit the protective qi shield, shattering it. Han Tianlong's eyes bulged out, his internal organs were severely damaged, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
“Go!”
The five-step snake no longer hesitated, picked up the box and walked away, soon disappearing without a trace.
The drought dragon was about to jump out of the window—
laugh!
The long sword pierces the chest!
Cao Jinxing appeared behind him like a ghost, and the Xuepo Sword pierced his heart!
It's freezing cold.
He turned around in shock and saw Cao Jinxing's expressionless face and the three headless corpses behind him: Wuchang Pig, Smiling Tiger, and Linked Horse.
He actually drew his sword and killed three people in a row in an instant!
No.
The life in the eyes of the drought dragon slowly faded away...
Yes, four.
And himself...
Plop!
His body fell to the ground, his eyes wide open, he died with his eyes open.
Cao Jinxing stood in front of the window, with the long sword in his hand pointing diagonally at the ground, and a cold air was spreading all around.
Across the street were a group of passers-by and officials who had long been stunned.
"Chase!"
On the other side, Lu Kunlun was anxious, thinking that things had gone too far, and that this group of people had actually succeeded. What about Cao Jinxing's mission...
He hurriedly used his Qinggong skills to rush out.
"Need not."
Cao Jinxing waved his hand and said, "The things in that box are fake."
He walked back to the dining table and pulled out an ice sculpture from under the table. Inside was a thousand-year-old fire turtle that had been frozen in ice. The ice was slowly melting.
“…”
Lu Kunlun was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and laughed wildly: "Hahaha, good brother, you are amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
It was not until then that the three expert guards from the Riyuexing Restaurant finally arrived.
The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in Confucian clothes and with an elegant demeanor. When he saw the fire turtle in Cao Jinxing's hand, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
From a distance, he clasped his fists and saluted, his attitude very humble: "The thief was cunning and almost delayed your errand. Zhao Siming apologizes first."
"Not in a hurry."
Cao Jinxing casually picked up a box, put the fire turtle inside and sealed it, then looked at Zhao Siming and said with a half-smile: "Three innates, being fooled around by a bee-controlling spell, it's hard for you."
Zhao Siming hurriedly explained: "Sir, I said that the enemy was cunning, she..."
"I will report the truth to the Pacification Office."
Cao Jinxing was too lazy to argue with him: "Did the Riyuexing Restaurant collude with the thieves to steal the imperial tribute... I believe my colleagues can find out."
“…”
Zhao Siming's face darkened.
Other officials passing by then realized that this matter was of great importance as it actually involved tribute!
Everyone looked nervous, afraid of being involved.
"Brother Lu."
Cao Jinxing turned to Lu Kunlun and said, "We still have half a day to go. Brother Lu, please accompany me."
"No problem."
Lu Kunlun looked at the messy restaurant behind him, thinking that the demolition was almost complete. He was very satisfied and coughed, "Let's go, lest that 'expert' comes back. If she can fool these three, she might be able to fool us. We have to leave quickly."
Cao Jinxing nodded: "That makes sense. I've heard that Sun Moon Hill has strict defenses before, and seeing it today, it's really extraordinary, really strict."
"Yeah yeah."
Lu Kunlun laughed and said, "If it weren't for the two of us, these ten people would have killed everyone in the building."
“…”
The two of them made sarcastic remarks in a veiled and hidden way, and Zhao Siming and the other two gritted their teeth in anger, but they couldn't show it.
"I almost forgot about the pair of black iron gloves."
Cao Jin walked back to the smiling tiger corpse, took off the gloves and found that the workmanship was amazing. They were made of black gold wire mixed with black iron. They looked dark and inconspicuous, but they were actually a rare treasure.
"Unfortunately it's too bulky for me."
He put away his gloves, took the box, and mounted his horse. Lu Kunlun took a fast horse, and the two of them rode on the road and headed straight out of the city.
This time, under the watchful eyes of the public, no one dared to have any thoughts.
Not to mention the serious crime of plundering tribute, these two people alone are not something that ordinary people can deal with - there are nine corpses lying in the hall!
…
That evening.
In a villa somewhere in the capital.
Yan Shaoting stood in the yard, wearing a white robe and standing with his hands behind his back. He looked very handsome, but unfortunately he had an ordinary face.
——This is the result of his mother's genes playing a big role. If he was designed to look like his father Yan Shifan, who was "short, fat and ugly", he would be unattractive.
The five-step snake jumped into the yard, knelt on one knee, and presented the cold jade box with both hands.
"My young master, I have accomplished your mission!"
"Haha, I'm glad you fulfilled your mission?"
Yan Shaoting repeated it, sighed deeply, and then slapped Wubu Snake in the face, knocking her to the ground!
He turned around, his face full of murderous intent.
The five-step snake was then shocked to find that his right cheek was swollen and there was a clear handprint on it.
Yan Shaoting was furious and stepped on the cold jade box, crushing it to pieces and revealing the red tortoise shell inside.
"Open your dog eyes and take a good look. Is this a fire turtle?!"
“…”
Before the five-step snake came, it took a special look to confirm that it was a fire turtle, but now it was uncertain after seeing Yan Shaoting's appearance. It lowered its head and took a closer look, only to find that although the turtle shell was lifelike, it had no temperature and was actually a dead object!
Her face turned pale instantly.
"Chickenblood stone? How...how could it be..."
The five-step snake panicked.
Her first reaction was that someone had switched the box with her, but she had never let the box out of her sight during the entire trip, so it couldn't be hers...
It can only be...
The five-step snake knelt down in fear.
"Eleven of the twelve zodiac animals died, and in the end they brought back a fake. This slap in the face is really loud!"
Yan Shaoting touched his face. This was the beating from his grandfather who loved him the most. His father was so angry that he kicked him several times, calling him an unfilial son and wishing to beat him to death.
He caused too much trouble.
In order to save him, all the blame was put on Zhao Siming and others from Riyuexing Restaurant, and all of them had to be executed by slow slicing!
Zhao Wenhua was dismissed from his post, the restaurant was confiscated, and even Yan Song and Yan Shifan were severely punished. They had to spend a lot of money secretly to build a palace for the emperor.
The voices of the upright people grew louder in the government and the public.
If Yan Song and his son were not in the cabinet at the time and had nothing to do with the matter, anyone who dared to touch Jiajing's things would be killed no matter how conveniently they used them!
After this battle.
The Yan family suffered heavy losses and the emperor's favor declined, all because of this arrogant "naughty child".
"Cao! Jing! Go!"
Yan Shaoting was furious.
He didn't think he was wrong, he just blamed Cao Jinxing for not knowing the current situation and daring to go against him! He also blamed the twelve zodiac animals for being useless, not even being able to snatch a fire turtle!
"Your subordinate... Your subordinate is useless... Please punish me, young master!"
The five-step snake kowtowed quickly.
Yan Shaoting glanced at her, his eyes swept over her slender body, squatted down, stretched out his finger to lift her chin, and said lightly: "I will be confined to my house for half a year, and I will not allow visitors. You stay and serve me."
“…”
The five-step snake's heart trembled, and when he thought of the maids who were killed by him, his back felt cold, but it was only for a moment, and his eyes changed, becoming as gentle as water.
She said softly and tactfully: "Yes, Master~"
"good."
Yan Shaoting smiled, picked her up and carried her into the main room. He was feeling angry and needed to vent it out.
As for Cao Jinxing...
"Someone will play with you."
boom!
The door was closed and the night was getting dark.
