Li Xian and Zhang Qi looked at each other and ran out of the temple together.

That night, Xu Boxiang was drowsy in the ruined temple when he heard the voice of a guard outside the door shouting: "Who?!"

Immediately afterwards, the sound of swords clashing and shouts of killing were heard outside the door, including the voices of several people shouting in Cochin dialect.

The door broke open, and several men with bald heads and monk robes broke into the temple. Two of them guarded the door, and the other two opened the incense table and carried it to the door. Another one with a lean face got behind Xu Boxiang and pulled out a short knife to cut off the rope.

Xu Boxiang was shocked: "Who are you?!"

At this moment, several feather arrows shot in, and a man shouted to the leader: "The Song people's crossbows are very powerful. Command, what should I do?"

The man gritted his teeth and said, "Fight them!"

Xu Boxiang had an idea: "Pick up the futon to block the arrows! Go to the back window!"

Several men picked up their futons and retreated to the back of the temple, where they found that the windows had been nailed shut.

The leader picked up a chair and smashed it against the window lattice. With great force, there was a loud crack and a big hole was made in the window.

Several people hurriedly moved the wooden board away and helped Xu Boxiang to climb out.

The fire in front of me started to come alive, and I heard everyone in the team yelling: "Let me attack the rebels who are straight! Leave half of them to search the surroundings, and no one can be allowed to escape! The traitors are gone, let's wipe their necks!"

Seeing the fire gradually approaching, the leader of Jiaozhi Xizuo discussed with several people around him, and with a sudden change of heart, he wrapped Xu Boxiang and rolled down the steep cliff!

…

Shang Weizhong is a well-known maritime merchant on Fujian Road, mainly traveling on the Jiaozhi line.

The ancestors of the Cochin royal family were originally from Fujian. Many Fujian maritime merchants came to Cochin to do business and were retained by high-ranking Cochin officials and became local officials.

There were even Fujian businessmen who were unwilling to stay in Cochin and were forcibly detained by the Cochin people - if you have to work for us as officials, we won't let you go!

The reality of history is sometimes so absurd.

The assassin's name is Li Chengguang, and he is a master invited by Li Changjie from the mountains. It is said that his swordsmanship is so superb that gods and ghosts are shocked.

Li Chengguang's ship sailed in a large circle off the coast of Ruxi Village before escaping the interception of the Guangnan Navy, and was finally captured in Ulei off the coast of Qinzhou.

The cross-examination was very careful, but Li Chengguang was well prepared and there were no flaws.

But even so, Li Chengguang was not able to enter the Qinjiang estuary directly. Instead, he was taken to land at Sancunzhai, which is dozens of miles west of Anyuan City, and then arrived at Anyuan City by land.

After arriving at Anyuan City, after checking at all levels and confirming that the chart was reliable, the Song Dynasty rewarded Li Chengguang with the title of Cheng Yilang and allowed him to live in Anyuan City.

From beginning to end, Su You didn't show up.

Li Chengguang studied in the city for a long time and finally caught the traces of Su You. He learned that today he was going to Xishan Lady Temple to pray for wind.

The goddess enshrined in Madam Temple is named Lin Moniang, who was born in Weizhou in the Southern Tang Dynasty. Weizhou is located on Weizhou Island off the coast of Qinlian. Lin Moniang is the Mazu of later generations.

Li Chengguang lay down beside the path on the west mountain, waiting for Su You's arrival.

Soon, a group of cars appeared at the end of the path.

When the front team passed by, Li Chengguang picked himself up from the grass and said: "Song Dynasty dog ​​officer! Take your orders!"

In everyone's surprised and horrified eyes, Li Chengguang was like a hawk flying over the low sky, pointing the sword in his hand directly at the bicycle!

At this moment, a long sword with colorful textures also stabbed out of the bicycle window screen and cut into Li Chengguang's wrist!

The swords of the Jiaozhi people are very beautiful, "very long, with grooves and no ridges, and as exquisite as Japanese swords, but they are not rare."

But now the sword in Li Chengguang's hand, gifted by Li Changjie himself, was eclipsed before the long sword was stabbed out of the car.

Li Chengguang was shocked and flicked his wrist. Unexpectedly, the opponent's long sword seemed to have known his countermeasures. He slowly angled it and blocked the path of Li Chengguang's wrist. This scene looked like Li Chengguang took the initiative to move his wrist.

It's like sending your wrist to the tip of someone else's sword.

Li Chengguang shouted "Ah", turned over and fell down, narrowly dodging the sword.

The sergeants outside finally reacted and surrounded him with their swords drawn.

Li Chengguang knew that there was an accident, because Su You was a civil servant, and there was no way he could have such superb skills as the man in the car.

Unafraid of the sergeants around him, Li Chengguang just stared at the light vehicle with his sword across his chest: "The hero in the vehicle, are you willing to come out and see me?"

The car door opened, and an elegant young woman dressed in a swordsman's uniform, holding a slender feather-patterned sword, got out of the car: "Brother Xiaoyou said that there will be assassinations recently, and it is true. Your name should not be Shang Weizhong."

If you give me a name, you may be able to pass down the history."

Li Chengguang shook his head and bowed in salute: "I'm just going to die today. I wonder if I can learn Madam's swordsmanship once in a while?"

The young woman frowned and said, "Didn't you just learn from me? A Jiaozhi warrior is so unwilling to admit defeat?"

"Because Madam's swordsmanship is really exquisite, I really want to take a look at it again..."

Li Chengguang took two steps back: "I am too greedy, so I will apologize to my wife."

After saying this, he raised his left arm and covered his neck with his sleeve to prevent blood from splashing out and hitting his opponent. He put the long sword in his right hand between his upper arm and his neck, slashed hard, and killed himself on the spot.

Another group of cavalry rushed towards the end of the path. When the leader saw the car driving here, he waved from a distance and shouted angrily: "Weier--Weier--"

When he got close, the man turned over and dismounted. As a result, his horse went too fast and almost somersaulted onto Li Chengguang's lying body.

Shi Wei quickly stretched out her hand to support him: "Brother Xiaoyou, be careful!"

Su You was in shock: "Why did you set off first? What should you do if you encounter an assassin? Are you going to scare me to death?"

Shi Wei held his hand: "The assassin has committed suicide."

"Ah?" Su You then noticed a person lying on the ground and quickly jumped away.

Ping Zhengsheng came over and kicked the corpse so that it turned over: "It's that maritime merchant!"

Only then did Su You return to his shell: "I have made clear arrangements a long time ago. Wei'er, you are now the royal wife of the imperial court. Can you stop practicing the rules of the world with these people in the world?"

Shi Wei lowered his head: "He is actually... also a hero. I don't want him to die under random arrows... without the dignity of a warrior."

Seeing Shi Wei's behavior, Su You couldn't help but feel soft: "I'm overthinking, and I'm always afraid that some fish might slip through the net. I want to arrange to catch them all, but now that I'm here, this assassin has no helpers."

After speaking, he took Shi Wei's hand and said softly: "It's my fault. I shouldn't have arranged it like this. From now on, I will never use myself as a bait to let my wife stand up for me."

Shi Wei said: "Brother Xiaoyou, I'm sorry."

Su You said: "Before doing anything in the future, think about the flat jar and the colander... But there won't be another time, right?"

Shi Wei nodded: "Well, I will be by your side to protect you from now on."

Su You finally breathed a sigh of relief: "What should we do about this person?"

Shi Wei said: "He didn't say his name, but he regarded death as home and followed martial ethics, so he might as well give him a good burial."

Su You said: "Then let's give it a good burial. Zheng Sheng will ask people to dig a pit."

After saying that, he picked up Li Chengguang's sword and said, "Beautiful! This is definitely a fine product. It would be sold for at least a thousand coins in Bianjing..."

As a result, Ping Zhengsheng snatched the sword away with his hands, inserted it back into Li Chengguang's sheath, glared at Su You angrily, and carried Li Chengguang's body towards the roadside woods with the sergeants.

Su You was confused: "What does he mean?"

Shi Wei smiled and said: "This is the respect a warrior has for a warrior. His sword will naturally be buried with him. You didn't really want to take the sword back to Bianjing City and sell it just now, did you?"
