Chapter 304 Chain Knife
Early the next morning, Di Renjie took the imperial decree and set off for Chang'an under the protection of a dozen brocade guards.

Originally, it was nearly the end of the new year, and at this time, it was not appropriate to transfer people outside because of emotion and reason.It's just that the situation in Guanzhong is urgent, so Liu Bian can't help being careless.

A group of dozens of riders, stepping on snowflakes, set off on the road!
At this time, the weather was cold, and there had just been a heavy snowfall, the sky was cloudy, the snow on the ground was creaked by the sound of horseshoes, the road was blocked by heavy snow, and the marching speed was not fast.

A day later, a group of people arrived at Hangu Pass. Under the hospitality of Xue Andu, they replenished their supplies and changed their horses. The next day they set off again for Chang'an.Now that Guanzhong is under the rule of Liu Bian, Chang'an and Luoyang have only seen their role, and Hangu Pass' role is somewhat small.

It's just that the Guanzhong aristocratic family is not stable yet, and there are many private soldiers in the clan, so Liu Biancai put Xue An in Hangu Pass as a deterrent, just in case.However, as the connection between Guanzhong and Luoyang, it is now under the rule of Liu Bian. The two places can communicate with each other, and Hangu Pass has always been open.

It's just that the weather is cold, and there are not many business travelers between the two places along the way.

Di Renjie and a group of dozens of people left Hangu Pass and continued down, and within half an hour, they came to Huayin territory.Huayin is at the foot of Huashan Mountain. To the south is the majestic Huashan Mountain, and to the north is the surging and endlessly flowing Yellow River!And the Tongguan of the later generations is based here, with the Yellow River to the north and Huashan Mountain to the south, it is extremely steep!

In the north, the roar of the Yellow River roars, and looking south, the Huashan Mountains stand majestically!

"Woo!" The sound of the Yellow River galloping resounded through the earth, so that the horse was slightly startled.Di Renjie patted the horse's neck to calm him down, and asked in a deep voice, "Now that we're out, we're at the foot of Mount Hua, and we're heading west. How long will it take to reach Chang'an!"

"With our foot strength, I'm afraid we can only reach it after dark!" Jin Yiwei, the leader, cupped his hands.

Di Renjie said in a deep voice: "It's freezing cold but there is no place to rest and stay. Brothers, speed up and try to get back to Chang'an before dark!"

Di Renjie took the lead, speeding up and heading west. The group of people stopped after only a few miles.

"Protect adults!"

On the gray ground, dozens of horses galloped in the distance, and more than a dozen Jinyi guards hurriedly protected Di Renjie.

"Quick, don't let him run away!"

"Stop him for me, if he crosses Hangu Pass, you will be in trouble!"

Shouts came from a distance, the hazy sky made it hard to see the distant scene clearly, but the people in the north were running in a hurry, so they were discovered by the Jin Yiwei!But the people on the opposite side haven't found Jin Yiwei's people yet.

Di Renjie stared and saw about a dozen riders, as if they were chasing someone!Di Renjie narrowed his eyes, looked at a ramp next to him, and quickly ordered: "Hide first and have a look!"

A dozen or so riders got off their horses and led their war horses down the slope. The sky and the earth were completely white. For a while, they were not noticed by the cavalry who rode over from the opposite side.These dozen Jinyiwei are excellent in martial arts, and they are even better at combined strikes. They can be called masters among individual soldiers. The opponents have an equal number, so Di Renjie is also confident and not panicked.

More than a dozen people were lying on the snow under the ramp, looking up.

A dozen or so cavalrymen from the opposite side also galloped over, and Di Renjie's expression changed. These dozen or so cavalrymen were all wearing armor from the Chang'an Army!And in front of more than ten riders, a man in black, holding a machete, was actually fighting with the cavalry under the horse.

The man's speed is very fast, and the cavalry can't run fast in the snow. It should be difficult to fight and retreat at the same time. The cavalry can't help the man, and the man can't escape the pursuit of the cavalry for a while!
The man was eight feet long, with a dignified appearance and a square face. He wielded a machete in his hand and a dozen cavalrymen couldn't do anything to him.It's just that he has a lot of wounds on his body, he was seriously injured, his movements gradually slowed down, and the situation became critical.

Di Renjie murmured with a livid face: "It seems that the soldiers chased and killed this person, and all their moves were deadly. This must take his life. If it is a fugitive, he should be pressed back for trial!"

"Hmph, you run, I've been chasing you for three days, but you keep running! We finally caught you, right?"

"Hangu Pass is ahead, you will be safe after entering Hangu Pass, why don't you keep running?"

The man ran for a while, and was exhausted. He fell on the snow and the surrounding cavalry stepped forward to surround him.Seeing that the man was already a turtle in the urn, several cavalrymen laughed wildly.

"Kill him quickly, lest nights and dreams reveal our tracks!" The leading cavalry ordered.

When Di Renjie heard this, he felt even more wrong. If it was an officer and soldier, how could he cover up like this, and he was afraid of leaking his tracks?Seeing that the man on the snowy ground was in critical condition, Di Renjie hurriedly sent Jin Yiwei to rescue him.

The Jinyiwei under Liu Bian's command did not use the Xiuchun Knife, but a saber, a master swordsman trained by Shi A and Wang Yue!When Di Renjie gave an order, there was the sound of swords being drawn in unison, and more than a dozen Jinyi guards rushed out from under the ramp!

"Who are you?" As soon as Jin Yiwei came out, a cavalryman asked in shock.

"Officer, retreat quickly!" The leading cavalry frowned.

Di Renjie followed closely, went up the official road in the middle, and asked: "Which general are you under? Killing people indiscriminately? If you are guilty, you should be taken back for trial!"

Di Renjie made a sound on the ground, and was protected by many swordsmen. The cavalry leader couldn't figure out Di Renjie's identity, so he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who are you? This person has committed a felony, and the general ordered him to kill him! Idle people, please go away quickly. Don't delay my work!"

"Bold, this one came from Luoyang and was personally appointed by His Majesty, Mr. Biejia, how dare you be rude!" Jin Yiwei shouted.

"Don't drive?" Several cavalrymen looked at each other in blank dismay, and the first cavalryman narrowed his eyes. The uniform black clothes and long sword must be Jinyiwei, who came from the east, could it be a high-ranking official from Luoyang?

"Why did you kill this man?" Seeing that the cavalry were doubtful, Di Renjie asked in a deep voice.Unexpectedly, the cavalry on the opposite side shouted loudly: "Kill them, don't leave them alive!"

"Protect your lord!" The cavalry rushed over immediately, Jin Yiwei also reacted quickly, and the two Jin Yiwei grabbed Di Renjie and retreated to the side.The rest of Jin Yiwei immediately went up to meet him.

Although the cavalry on the opposite side were on horseback, Jin Yiwei was happy and fearless, several people jumped and stabbed the cavalry.However, the leading cavalryman did not forget the man in black lying on the ground, holding a long spear, and stabbing at the man lying on the ground.

The man in black seemed to be in a coma, and the spear stabbed at his head. Suddenly, the man opened his eyes, walked on the snow, and at the same time pointed the machete in his hand at the cavalryman.

"Hmph, so I pretended to be dead. Why, can you kill me by lying on the ground and pointing a knife at me?" The cavalry sneered, leaned forward, and stabbed the man in black with his gun.

The man in black sneered, and shook the machete in his hand. Suddenly, in the eyes of the cavalryman, he saw the long knife rushing towards his forehead. The man was obviously paralyzed on the ground, and he didn't see him throwing the knife. How could the knife move?

The cavalry was startled, and quickly turned his head to the side, trying to hide from the blade.The man in black on the ground moved his right hand, and saw the blade move accordingly. The blade changed direction, but slashed towards the cavalry's neck.

"Crack!" The cavalryman's head fell to the ground, accompanied by the sound of jingling bells!
I saw the blade flying towards the man's hand and retracting it. When I looked carefully, there was a small iron chain about several feet long connected to it.

After killing the cavalry leader, the man in black seemed to have exhausted all his strength, but he turned his head and crawled towards Di Renjie's direction abruptly.

The other guards in Jin Yi were extremely powerful. They fought against the cavalry on foot. After a few rounds, they stabbed the cavalry off their horses one after another, but they didn't hurt their lives.Jin Yiwei came back to his senses, but came to Di Renjie's side, protected him, and looked at the man in black vigilantly.

The man in black reluctantly climbed up to Di Renjie and asked, "Are you an official from Luoyang?"

Surrounded by Jin Yiwei guarding swords, Di Renjie waved his hands and stepped forward, saying, "Who are you, and why are these soldiers chasing and killing you!"

"He is a traitor at the border, and he ordered the killing of hundreds of Xiliang merchants!" The man in black was about to reply when a captured cavalry shouted.

"This person has issued an order from his superiors. He has committed a heinous crime. He is not to be shot. Please kill him quickly!"

These cavalrymen, who were bound to kill the man in black, were captured, and they did not forget to ask Di Renjie to kill him.

Di Renjie frowned. The man in black was very anxious, and he struggled to get up to defend himself, but fell to the ground with his foot, unconscious.

The black clothes fell into a coma, and these cavalrymen spoke unanimously, and Di Renjie had no choice but to wave his hands and say: "Take them back to Chang'an for trial!"

When the soldiers heard that Di Renjie didn't kill the man in black, they looked at each other with a flash of determination in their eyes, blood overflowed from the corners of their mouths, and they fell down dead one by one.

"My lord, they committed suicide by biting their tongues!" A Jin Yiwei hurriedly stepped forward to investigate and reported to Di Renjie.

Di Renjie asked with a gloomy face: "You fought against them before, how are these people's martial arts, maybe you can see the way?"

"Chang'an cavalry only has Baima Yicong of General Zilong, but these cavalry are incomparable with Baima Yicong. After the competition, they feel that they are undoubtedly the same as me. They should be trained assassins, not cavalry at all!" The leader of Jinyiwei replied.

"Assassin?" Di Renjie frowned and thought. Jin Yiwei is the most powerful assassin in the world. He was trained by the sword god Wang Yue. Big group of people.

These people are assassins, and they appeared in the territory of Yongzhou. Except for Jin Yiwei, they can only be followers of the aristocratic family, killers raised in captivity!

Although Di Renjie was skeptical, he didn't dare to make a conclusion, and ordered: "Take everyone back! The corpses, weapons, and horses of these cavalrymen are also taken back intact!"

Di Renjie glanced at the man in black again. The key to solving this matter lies in the man in black. Di Renjie walked up to the man in black and felt the man's body was cold.Said: "He is suffering from hunger and cold, rest on the spot, give him some hot water to drink, so as not to freeze to death!"

As noon was approaching, Di Renjie and the others ate some godmothers, and Jin Yiwei took some still warm hot water from the water bag that Jin Yiwei kept close to him, and gave it to the man to drink.They took some clothes from the body and wrapped the man up on the horse so that he would not freeze to death.

After packing up, Di Renjie and others set off again to Chang'an.
