All Heavens: Start by guarding the light at night

Chapter 62 The red-sleeved tricks danced and danced, and the assassination of Chen Zixian failed

Chang'an City is a very prosperous city, its summer is as hot as many places.

Especially in June, the sun is getting higher and higher, and the temperature rises suddenly. The heat makes the originally lively streets and alleys less smokey.

Most of the shops on Alley 47 have reopened, and less than half of them are under the banner of the Guangming Chamber of Commerce.

The fat rich businessman and his servants had nothing to do, and wandered all the way to Ning Que's shop.

Ning Que did not go to the academy because he had something very important to do.

The arrival of the wealthy businessman provided enough cover for this matter.

Hongxiuzhao is the largest brothel in Chang'an City, and it is a gathering place for literati and refined guests.

The wealthy businessman invited Ning Que to appreciate a calligraphy and painting. The author of this calligraphy was Master Yan Se, the most powerful person in the south gate of Haotian Dao.

If it were an ordinary situation, Ning Que would definitely be dismissive, but this time he would not let go of this opportunity.

Ning Que brought Sangsang to Hongxiu Zhao, admiring flowers, admiring beauties, reciting poems, and most importantly, admiring calligraphy and painting.

Unlike the hot outside world, there is a universe inside the red sleeves.

The special fan customized from the Bright Chamber of Commerce makes the whole Hongxiu move full of coolness.

In this gentle countryside, beauties dance, play and sing. Therefore, this is a must-choice place for countless literati and elegant guests in Chang'an City.

As for whether you are really talented or not, it doesn't matter, if you have enough money, you will have everything.

Especially the academy disciples, who come to this red-sleeved move, get all kinds of preferential treatment.

Disguised hype has won over those wealthy people who want to integrate into the upper class.

Ning Que chatted casually with the fat rich businessman.

The tanned and thin Sangsang frowned and said nothing. She didn't like coming to such a place, especially when she saw Ning Que looking at other women, she always felt a worried feeling in her heart.

This year, Sangsang is only 14 years old. She has followed Ning Que through life and death all year round, and she doesn't understand what it feels like.

In the middle of the journey, Ning Que left to go to the toilet.

Sang Sang stayed there to cover. Of course she knew what Ning Que was going to do, and Ning Que was obsessed with that hatred.

Even though he had already entered the academy, he still didn't want those people to live an extra quarter of an hour.

After a simple disguise, he used the sunshade to block his face so that no one could distinguish it.

In the west of Fang, there is a blacksmith's shop, about one kilometer away from Hongxiu Zhao.

Chen Zixian is the shopkeeper of this blacksmith shop.

In the afternoon, there are not many merchants coming and going, so the old master is usually used to taking a rest at this time.

The young blacksmith masters will also get started during this time and handle some orders.

Chen Zixian would follow the old masters to the backyard to rest.

As the shopkeeper, he has a separate place to rest in the backyard and does not need to crowd with the old masters.

Even though the sun was shining brightly, Ning Que had already calculated that it would rain heavily in the evening.

As long as he sneaks into Chen Zixian's backyard, finds him, and kills this man quietly, when the old masters wake up and it rains, the traces of the crime will be completely wiped out.

The courtyard wall was not high, so Ning Que easily climbed over it without even making any sound. It was difficult for even practitioners to detect Ning Que's appearance.

Chen Zixian, 47 years old, was a former deputy general under General Xuanwei. He was commended by the imperial court for being the first to commit treason against General Xuanwei, Lin Guangyuan. Later, in the fourth year of Tianqi's reign, he was deprived of all merits and expelled from the army for provocative actions.

Later, the family suffered a series of misfortunes, and his wife reconciled with him and returned home with her young son, but he stayed alone in Chang'an City.

On the list given by Zhuoer, Chen Zixian was considered the worst mess, and most of them were considered to have some family business, and they could live happily in Chang'an.

He walked softly and carefully to Chen Zixian's door, opened the door with a slight stroke of the iron piece.

On the bed, Chen Zixian, who had just fallen asleep, raised his head with a puzzled expression.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a black shadow rushing towards him and directly holding his mouth.

The old man did not take off his clothes during his lunch break. The thin shirt on his body was a bit worn out, with a patch on his shoulder, and his gray hair and beard were in a mess.

"Are you Chen Zixian?"

Ning Que's eyes were sharp, as if a steel knife had pierced Chen Zixian's shoulder, making the old man beneath him tremble.

Ning Que stuffed a piece of rag into Chen Zixian's mouth and let it go.

"Are you Chen Zixian?" Ning Que asked again.

Chen Zixian hesitated, but he still nodded. He looked at Ning Que with complicated eyes, as if he wanted to find someone from Ning Que.

"You will die very happily." Ning Que said.

Chen Zixian thought of something, and began to shake his head again, his eyes beckoning, as if he wanted to say something.

Ning Que frowned, hesitating whether to let Chen Zixian say this.

Once Chen Zixian asks for help, he will be put in danger.

However, it was just a blacksmith's shop, and no one could keep him here.

Taking out the cloth strip from Chen Zixian's mouth, he only listened to Chen Zixian's soft reminder: "There is an ambush, danger, run!"

Ning Que was shocked, and there was a sense of fear in the dark.

After blocking Chen Zixian's mouth again, Ning Que turned his head and looked out the door.

A man in white robes slashed across the air with a long sword.

Ning Que dodged and let go of Chen Zixian who was in his hands.

The man in the long gown picked up Chen Zixian with one hand, and at the same time manipulated the flying sword to stop Ning Que from fleeing.

"Chen Zixian, you found an enemy, why didn't you call for help immediately?"

The long-clothed man was a little angry. If Ning Que were to kill Chen Zixian, he wouldn't be able to eat and walk away.

Chen Zixian lowered his head, unwilling to answer.

"Chen Zixian, if it wasn't for the words from above to let me treat you with courtesy, I would definitely slap you a few times at this moment."

"If you die, you will die. If you cause me to be implicated, even if you die, the people you care about will not be easy."

Chen Zixian knelt down and begged for mercy. Since he was not tied up, he took off the cloth stuffed in his mouth with his hands at the moment of escape.

"I dare not, I will never dare again."

"Better so."

The man in the long robe had a stern look on his face, and then he raised his head and focused his attention on Ning Que again.

"Are you Ning Que, the one who follows Chao Xiaoshu on a rainy night at the Spring Breeze Pavilion?"

"Ning Que also came to Chang'an City from Weicheng with the priest of the Guangming Palace and the fourth princess of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yu?"

Ning Que had already drawn out the big black umbrella at this time, and at the same time drew out the dagger from his waist that was intended to assassinate, ready to fight for his life.

It's a pity that the man in the long robe is a great swordsman in the Dongxuan realm, and he is an experienced veteran.

It is not so easy to find the other party's flaws.

Ning Que has never been a person who accepts his fate. As long as it is not until the last moment, he will not give up his life.

"run!"

After Chen Zixian struggled, he roared and hugged the man in the long gown.

"Chen Zixian, you are looking for death!"

The man in the long gown used his telekinesis to overthrow Chen Zixian. Ning Que seized the opportunity and jumped out of the window on the side.

"Hmph, I want to escape, but there is no way."

The man in the long gown simultaneously controlled the flying sword with his mind and stabbed it directly out of the window.

Ning Que didn't even look back, he directly opened the big black umbrella and was pushed by the impact of the flying sword, causing a mouthful of blood to spurt out.

After a stagger, Ning Que did not fall down and flew directly over the high wall.
