Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 17 City Gate Battle

Jin Guo Zhongdu
"Hey, when will this city gate be under martial law?"

"That's right, I still have a big deal to go out of town, and I don't know what happened to the sudden martial law."

"I heard that an assassin broke into Prince Zhao's mansion last night and kidnapped the princess."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

But I saw two middle-aged men with rich faces sitting in the tea shop at the gate of the city, looking at the gate that only allowed people to enter but not to leave from time to time, but it didn't help, so they could only sit helplessly.

Li Ming and Huang Rong sat on the tea shop with their bamboo hats on and watched the city gate with about a hundred soldiers staring at the crowd. Anyone who tried to approach the city gate and leave the city was taken down, and the city wall was covered with soldiers staring at the crowd. Follow the movement below.

"Brother Ming, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do, just kill it"

After finishing speaking, he hugged Huang Rong's slender waist, jumped on the little white dragon, and went straight to the city gate.
"Who, stop now"

Seeing someone approaching on horseback, the soldiers aimed their weapons at the two of them and shouted loudly.

"Stop when you say stop, but don't"

The clear and melodious voice of the girl in his arms sounded, Li Ming hugged the beautiful woman tightly with his left hand, and held the big summer dragon sparrow out of the box with his right hand, the little white dragon connected with his master with a neigh and accelerated towards the city gate.

"The prince has an order, and those who dare to break through the pass will be killed without mercy"

As soon as the leader gave an order, the soldiers at the city gate all clenched their weapons and charged at the two of them. The people on the side hurriedly left the place of right and wrong, watching and pointing from a distance, but they were eating melons and discussing.

"Whoever stops me will die!"

Covering Huang Rong's eyes with his left hand, he didn't want the girl to see the bloody scene. With his right hand, Da Xia Longque swung down, and the soldiers rushing in the front were split into two, which made the soldiers behind subconsciously take a step back.

"Those who retreat in battle will be killed without mercy"

Seeing the soldiers backing down, the leader in the rear yelled loudly, and the soldiers rushed forward after hearing this.

The little white dragon neighed and the wind blew under his hooves. Li Ming waved the big Xia sparrow in his hand, and the afterimage was cast. The vertical and horizontal saber techniques were deployed, and the saber aura smashed a bloody road at the gate of the city.

The last person who dared to block the way with a knife put the knife in the box, rode his horse and whipped out of the city, leaving only a group of terrified soldiers and some spectators in the distance. back view

"Brother's knife seems to be the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Sword"

"Could it be that person, but what is he doing in the Kingdom of Jin when he's not in Daxia?"

Qiu Chuji has traveled around the world for many years, and he has seen a lot, but he also recognizes Daxia Longque.

"It's nothing to do with me, it's more important to meet up with my junior brother first."

But the two arrived in Zhongdu just after receiving Wang Chuyi's request for help.
After about a stick of incense, there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance.
"Chase!"

Wanyan Honglie chased out of the city with Ouyang Ke, several people and 1000 troops.

.........

Outside the city, Li Ming held Huang Rong in his arms and rode his horse galloping, while the little white dragon galloped all the way, raising waves of dust and smoke. The two of them marched against the gust of wind, but they looked like a pair of heroes wandering the world.

Seeming to be a bit chilled by the oncoming gust of wind, the girl's tender body couldn't help arching towards Li Ming.

"Rong'er, is it cold?"

"some"

"It's getting late, let's find a resting place ahead."

Li Ming looked at Huang Rong in his arms and said softly, after the Heavenly Emperor's Land was operated, the great yin-yang endowment was converted into pure yang internal force, and a warm breath surrounded the two of them
As if bathed in the warmth of the spring sun, the girl leaned against Li Ming's arms and showed a playful smile, her bright eyes smiling into a pair of crescent moons.

"There is an abandoned temple in front of Rong'er, let's spend the night there tonight"

Li Ming looked at the ruined temple under the red glow of the sky and said.

"Having a place to shelter from the wind is better than sleeping in the wild"

Li Ming got off his horse and led Xiao Bailong slowly towards the ruined temple. When he entered the weedy courtyard, he found that there were already people in the temple.

"Brother Li, Miss Huang, it's you guys"

Guo Jing was picking up firewood and saw two people jumping together suddenly, he was about to call some masters to be alert, but when he took a closer look, he found that they were acquaintances.

"Jing'er, you know them"

Ke Zhen'e, who was blind, was the first to hear the sound and walked out of the temple, and asked suspiciously, but couldn't help being surprised in his heart.
I obviously only heard the movement of one person, if it wasn't for Guo Jing talking about two people, I'm afraid I wouldn't have noticed it at all.

"Master, this is what I told you about Brother Li and the others who once saved me and Wang Daochang."

Seeing that Ke Zhen'e was wary of Li Ming and Li Ming, Guo Jing hurriedly explained

"Brother Guo, I didn't expect it to be you, but it is destined."

Li Ming couldn't help feeling that he was so lucky to find Guo Jing in a ruined temple for the night.

"Brother Li, Miss Huang, it's getting dark and the night wind is cold, why don't you go in and get warm?"

Facing Guo Jing with a simple and honest face, Li Ming also nodded and said:

"Rong'er and I wanted to spend the night here, but I didn't expect that someone was already there. Brother Guo's invitation is so disturbing."

"Don't bother, don't bother, how lively are the people?"

Guo Jing scratched his head and looked simple and honest.

Afterwards, Li Ming and the two settled the little white dragon and entered the temple, but seeing that there were four men and one woman besides Guo Jing and Ke Zhen'e, it seemed quite lively.

"Brother Guo, who are these seniors?"

Although Li Ming already knew that they were the Seven Monsters of the South of the Yangtze River, after all, it was not easy for them to show it when they met for the first time.

"This is my master Ke Zhen'e and this is..."

Guo Jing introduced them one by one.

"Oh, so it's the Seven Heroes of the South of the Yangtze River, seniors. I've heard of several seniors who are heroic, courageous, and martial arts."

Anyway, compliments don't need money. Li Ming naturally complimented them at will, but although their martial arts are not very good, they are indeed chivalrous. After all, few people can go to the desert to stay for more than ten years just for a promise.

"Where, Jing'er also told us about the two young heroes, but I thank you two for helping Jing'er escape."

As the eldest brother, Ke Zhen'e didn't say anything, and Han Xiaoying, Yue Nvjian, came out to thank him after seeing this.

"It's just a small effort, not worth mentioning"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they also started to light a fire and cook.

Huang Rong wanted to show her skills, so she took over the job of cooking, and took the rabbits and pheasants picked up with stones by passing by to find a running water to wash them.
Soon as the bonfire was booming, a few people gathered around the bonfire, and they couldn't help chatting. The seven monsters in the south of the Yangtze River have traveled a lot, and they have a lot of experience. Although their martial arts are not very good, they know a lot about various martial arts in the world.

Just as the few people were chatting, a burst of tangy aroma came, but it was Huang Rong who came over with freshly cooked food.

"As soon as you smell it, you know it's a delicacy in the world, but thanks to Li Shaoxia's blessing, you can taste such a delicacy"

Although Ke Zhen'e was blind, but his nose was extremely sensitive, he sighed when he smelled it.

"Several seniors have won awards"

Seeing that her cooking skills were recognized, Huang Rong was in a good mood, so she said modestly
A group of people chatted freely while eating delicious food and drinking the fine wine brought by Li Ming

"Didn't Brother Guo follow Daoist Wang before, why didn't you see Daoist Wang?"
