Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch

Chapter 44 "Ambush from Ten Daggers"

In this world, Shen Lian is still admiring the paintings of Mr. Hokusai, a master of painting, just like in the movie.

And after knowing that Mr. Hokusai is actually a woman named Zhou Miaoxuan, he subconsciously transformed this appreciation of the paintings into admiration for Mr. Hokusai himself, which triggered a relationship with "Embroidered Spring Knife II: Asura". "Battlefield" has a similar plot.

In the original movie, Hokusai was included in the killing list by Dongchang because of his insinuation of current affairs in his paintings.

Shen Lian and his colleague Ling Yunkai were ordered to carry out a mission and go to Beizhai's residence to kill Beizhai.

After discovering that Beizhai was a young and beautiful woman, Ling Yunkai became lustful and wanted to rape Beizhai, but was stopped by Shen Lian. From this, Ling Yunkai was keenly aware that the two knew each other, so he wrote Shen Lian in the impermanence book. Lian was accused of secretly collaborating with the party, and Shen Lian was shocked. He wanted to snatch the book of impermanence from Ling Yunkai's hand, and the two fought at Beizhai's residence.

In the end, Shen Lian accidentally killed Ling Yunkai, and Beizhai also took the opportunity to escape.

Afterwards, Shen Lian faked the scene to cover up the fact that he killed his colleague, but was caught by Ding Baiying and others, and finally had to sink deeper and deeper, completely becoming a pawn in the hands of Xin Wang Zhu Youjian.

In this world, the plot changes a little bit, but not much in general.

Shen Lian still likes Beizhai, and Beizhai is still the confidante of Xin Wang Zhu Youjian.

It's just that the person who came forward to blackmail Shen Lian changed from the original Ding Baiying to the traverser Zhao Lihe.

The follow-up plot is not much different from the movie, at most the plan has become a little smoother, without those accidents and coincidences, everything is proceeding smoothly according to Zhao Lihe's plan.

It wasn't until the letter king Zhu Youjian took the throne and turned against Zhao Lihe that the fate of the main characters in the play changed.

Among them, the most important thing for Shen Lian was the change of Beizhai's fate.

In the original play, Shen Lian cut off the suspension bridge and let Beizhai escape alone, while he stayed with Lu Wenzhao, Ding Baiying and others to stop the pursuing officers and soldiers.

But in this world, Bei Zhai failed to escape, but fell off the cliff together with several officers and soldiers.

Therefore, compared with Shen Lian in the original play, Shen Lian in this world is more guilty and painful.

Facing Mr. Zhou Miaoxuan's younger sister Zhou Miaotong, Mr. Beizhai, he didn't have the love between men and women in the original drama in his heart. What he had was only guilt towards the Zhou family sisters, and a feeling of compensation for Zhou Miaotong because he failed to save Zhou Miaoxuan next time. .

Looking at the face in front of him that was similar to Bei Zhai, Shen Lian was a little lost.

After regaining consciousness, Shen Lian suddenly said softly: "Miao Tong, I will redeem you when I have saved up enough money."

Zhou Miaotong was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Master Shen, with your little salary, can you redeem me?"

Zhou Miaotong shook her head amusedly, stood up, turned her back to Shen Lian and said softly, "Besides, this is the Jiaofang Division, and no one can get out without a document from the Ministry of Punishment..."

"You can go out." Shen Lian suddenly said in a soft voice, "I have already entrusted my relationship, please ask Master Chen of the Ministry of Punishment to add your name to the list of the amnesty Jiaofang Division."

"..."

Zhou Miaotong was taken aback when she heard the words, and couldn't help turning around to look at Shen Lian.

Shen Lian got up silently, glanced at Zhou Miaotong who was hesitant to speak, then turned and left.

At this moment, Shen Lian paused, and suddenly turned his head to look at the wall, as if he found something unusual.

Seeing this, Zhou Miaotong was taken aback: "Why..."

"Shh!"

Shen Lian roughly interrupted Zhou Miaotong's words, told her to silence, then walked a few steps quickly, put his ear against the wall, and listened quietly for a while to the voice next door, then turned around and pulled Zhou Miaotong over, whispering in her ear. soundtrack.

"The Hanyu girl you mentioned, does she like to pick up two guests at a time?"

"……how is this possible!"

Zhou Miaotong frowned slightly, and said softly: "Sister Hanyu is a new girl from the Jiaofang Division. She is twelve years old and a virgin. Before tonight, she used to be an up-and-coming lady, but a senior official came to see her." After having sex with her, I spent a lot of money to order scented tea, and then I persuaded Qian's mother to let her comb and pick up the guests tonight."

"I see."

Shen Lian nodded thoughtfully.

According to this statement, there should be only two people in Miss Hanyu's boudoir.

Then why did he hear the breathing of three people?

Shen Lian remained calm on the face, but secretly became vigilant, and quietly pressed the handle of the knife at his waist with his right hand.

At the same time, the soothing and steady sound of the piano next door suddenly became impassioned.

The quiet and elegant meaning in the piano music is instantly transformed into the sound of gold and iron horses.

Zhou Miaotong couldn't help being surprised and asked: "How did it change from "Pingsha Luoyan" to "Ambush from Ten Daggers"?"

Shen Lian was startled when he heard the words, then his face darkened, and he pushed the door quickly and walked out.

Zhou Miaotong stood on the spot and listened carefully for a while, and couldn't help admiring: "Sister Hanyu is very capable!"

"boom--"

Shen Lian kicked open the door of the next room, and with a glance, he saw a girl in a lavender dress dancing in the room.

In front of the girl, a tall and handsome man in green shirt sat upright behind the desk, playing the piano gracefully, playing this impassioned and fierce piece of music with his fingers slowly but steadily.

In the corner of the wall behind him, there was another fat official who was disheveled and tied up, with a red cloth strip stuffed in his mouth, whining and yelling in horror.

Seeing Shen Lian break into the room, the girl froze, exclaimed and hid behind the screen.

The man in the green shirt had a warm smile on his face, and while playing the piano, he looked at Shen Lian.

As for the fat man who was tied up, he yelled louder and looked hopefully at the savior who broke into the room.

Such a weird and harmonious scene made Shen Lian's hair stand on end, and he couldn't help pulling out the embroidered spring knife engraved with cloud patterns.

Seeing Shen Lian drawing his saber to face each other, the man in the green shirt sighed, and smoothed the strings of the zither with both hands, the impassioned zither sound stopped abruptly.

"Master Shen, don't be impatient, I will tell you about it after I finish playing this song."

After finishing speaking, the man in the green shirt plucked the strings again, playing the music like no one else was there.

Shen Lian's face was solemn, and his eyes were fixed on the face of the man in the green shirt and the bones-white fingers on the strings.

"You are that bone demon hand, Fu Qingyun?"

"..."

Lin Zhongtian's face darkened, he hummed softly, and exerted a little force on his right index finger.

Hearing the sound of clang, the strings of the piano cracked and turned into a stream of light and shot towards Shen Lian.

Shen Lian only felt a flash of white light in front of his eyes, subconsciously turned his head, and the string of the qin brushed across his cheek in an instant, like a sharp arrow that went straight into the wooden wall behind him.

The strings penetrate the wood three points.

A trace of pain came from his cheek.

Shen Lian stretched out his hand to touch it, feeling awe-inspiring in his heart.

It was just a zither string that cut his cheek and pierced through the wall in an instant.

If he hadn't been able to avoid such power, he might have died on the spot right now!
Shen Lian didn't dare to be careless, shouted loudly, brandished the Xiuchun knife and charged towards Lin Zhongtian.

Lin Zhongtian sneered, his bone-white right hand turned into a white shadow, and pulled out all the remaining strings on the piano.

"Shhhhh-"

In an instant, streams of light pierced the air in the room and shot towards Shen Lian like lightning.

Shen Lian had expected it a long time ago, and kicked the wooden bench in front of him.

The long bench rolled and flew forward, blocking Shen Lian's body.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk-"

The sound of a series of strings sinking into the wooden stool sounded, and most of the strings hitting the vital points were blocked, only a small part of the strings passed through the gap of the tumbling bench and sank into Shen Lian's limbs.

Shen Lian let out a muffled snort, his body froze, and there were faint tingling pains in his limbs.

Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly, and plucked the last string amidst the piercing sound of the piano.

In an instant, the streamer swung out like a horse, cutting the rolling stool in half, and then chopped towards Shen Lian unabated.

Shen Lian turned pale with shock, gritted his teeth, held the knife in both hands, and slashed fiercely at the white light.

"Shoot-"

The metal and iron collided, and the sharp Xiuchun knife cut the string into two pieces.

The broken strings shot out from both sides of the blade like crossbow arrows, one pierced through Shen Lian's shoulder, and the other brushed past his ear and sank into the wooden wall behind him.

"Tick-"

Dark red blood flowed down his earlobe and dripped onto his shoulder.

Shen Lian looked solemn, holding a knife in both hands, pointing the tip at Lin Zhongtian in front of him.

This person in front of him is a formidable opponent he has never encountered in his life, and he absolutely cannot tolerate any carelessness!
