Chapter 82: Assassination
Qi Qi returned to the inn and fell asleep not long after. It's a little embarrassing to think of what happened tonight. It seems that the world is still mixed, and not all Qinglou women can be as kind as Xuanniao.
Thinking so, he fell asleep.
As the night deepened, the shops on the street closed one after another, the people on the street returned home one after another, and the lights gradually became dim until they were annihilated.
In the inn where Qi Qi lived, the shopkeeper in the store, Xiao Er, and the guests in the side room were also asleep, and the surroundings were quiet, and anyone who broke a bowl anywhere could hear it.
At a certain moment, a dark shadow appeared outside the window of Qi Qi's room. The dark shadow obscured the moonlight that shone into the room outside, leaving a shadow on Qi Qi's face.
Qi Qi, who had been in a half-asleep state, woke up suddenly, and at this time, three long knives broke through the window and pointed directly at him.
Qi Qi slapped the bed and got up, kicked the three people's long knives away, and went to get the sword at the same time. But as soon as the shroud of the sword was removed, the long knives of the three men stabbed again from three different directions.
Qi Qi could only dodge in the small space next to the bed, and was inevitably stabbed. The long knife slashed through his waist, leaving a trail of blood.
Zheng!
At this time, he drew his sword and slashed at the three men, and the long knives of the three also stabbed them, and the two sides fought together.
Qi Qi's swordsmanship is fierce, and his practice of Xiangniao's step is treacherous, and it is difficult for ordinary people to defeat him with more enemies and fewer enemies, but these three people are not ordinary people. They are all well-trained top assassins, and their martial arts are extremely strong, and they cooperate very tacitly. Almost at the beginning of the battle, Qi Qi was suppressed. And almost every remaining fight can leave traces on Qi Qi's body.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them passed more than a dozen moves, and Qi Qi had a few more scars on his body that were not deep or shallow, and blood was pouring out.
Sonor!
There was a crisp sound, it was Qi Qi who swung the two long knives with a sword, and then the sword turned and stabbed at the third person.
But the two of them immediately turned back and stabbed him again. Overstretched, he had to give up attacking the third man and instead defend the two.
Sonor!
A sword collided with a double sword, making a loud crisp sound.
At this moment, the third person who had freed up his hand stabbed him again, pointing it directly at his chest. If this sword is hit, he will probably have to confess here today.
Helpless, he had no choice but to put away his sword and turn to the third person. A thud knocked it back. But then the other two lost his way, and slashed through him.
Poof!
The sound of two long knives cutting through clothes and flesh sounded.
Qi Qi was slightly angry in his heart, he knew that if he continued to fight like this, he would eventually die, so he released the surging Xuanyang Fierce Qi in the dantian. For a moment, extremely scorching heat enveloped the entire room. The three Assassins were sweating instantly.
With a bang, Qi Qi slashed at the three of them with a sword with a scorching sword qi.
Touch!
The fierce sword qi destroyed the defense line formed by the three of them, leaving a clear sword mark on the three of them. The open wound, before the blood could come out, was scorched by the blazing temperature and condensed on it.
Qi Qi swung out his second sword, and the scorching sword qi surged out again.
But at this moment, an extremely strong momentum suddenly burst out from the bodies of the three assassins, and the three of them all drew their swords, and with a bang, they shook Qi Qi's scorching sword qi.
Qi Qi flew directly upside down and crashed into the wall behind him, knocking the wooden wall out of a large hole.
"Drink!" the three of them slashed again with a fierce glint in their eyes.
"Eight Extremes Sword..."
Qi Qi slightly charged his strength, and the air around him fluctuated violently, but before he could take out his sword, the three long knives had already broken through the wind, one interrupted the accumulation in his hand, and the other two stabbed into both sides of his waist.
Poof!
The sound of the iron knife rubbing flesh and blood sounded, and the long knife sank into Qi Qi's body, splashing out a touch of bright red blood.
"Uh!" Qi Qi frowned and clenched his teeth.
The two drew their swords, and the three of them slashed at Qi Qi again.
The blazing Xuanyang Fierce Qi poured into his body, and Qi Qi waved out the dragon swan.
With a sonorous sound, the swords collided, and the four of them all urged the true qi in their bodies to the extreme, so the true qi and the true qi collided, bursting out of the turbulent aftermath, and the entire wooden wing room was a little crumbling.
If Qi Qi fought alone, he would definitely not lose to any of these three people, but he only had one person, and the Xuanyang Fierce Qi that was less than the second order could not resist the combined efforts of the three assassins who didn't know how many levels they had reached.
The strength crushed him, and he just lifted up his body and slammed into the wall behind him, the wall had already broken a big hole, and this collision directly hit the wall and came to the next wing.
Someone was screaming here, and the room was filled with the violent gasps of men and women, and the crisp "popping" sound of something hitting something.
For Qi Qi's sudden intrusion, the men and women in the room were all shocked, stopped the movement in their hands, and looked at Qi Qi with wide eyes like owls.
Qi Qi slapped the ground and stood up, and at this time, the three assassins also came here and slashed at him again.
"Bird Walk!"
With a soft shout, Qi Qi ghostly appeared behind the three of them, and Long Yi stabbed out, piercing the left chest of an assassin.
The remaining two were startled and turned around and slashed at him. He appeared strangely on the other side, and the dragon stabbed out, obliterating an assassin once more.
In an instant, all three of them were killed by Qi Qi, and they fell to the ground of the wing room in confusion, their lips slightly open, their eyes glazed, and they didn't think clearly how they died before they died.
Qi Qi glanced at the men and women in the room, frowned, didn't say anything, and flew out of the window.
A man and a woman glanced at each other, both saw the puzzlement in each other's eyes, and then looked at the corpses on the ground, and let out a scream in unison.
Qi Qi fell into the alley behind the inn and ran towards the exit. But before he had run a few steps, a dangerous aura came from behind him.
Without thinking, he pulled out the dragon and slashed back, and as he turned around, he caught a glimpse of three assassins in the same outfit as Fang Cai stabbing with their knives.
Sonor!
The swords collided, and the domineering force came from the sword body, which shocked Qi Qihu's mouth numb. But finally retreated from the three. He continued to run forward. But just then, three more Assassins poured out from the corner near him and, without saying a word, stabbed at him with their knives.
He didn't know what he had done wrong to attract so many powerful assassins to assassinate him. However, the Assassins apparently did not allow him to think too much, as they were clearly intent on killing him.
Gather all your strength, including the Xuanyang Fierce Qi in the dantian, and slash at the three assassins in front of you.
Sonor!
The swords collided, as if the sound of being able to break the eardrum came out, and Qi Qi only felt that the long knives of the three of them contained extremely strong strength, which shocked him to numb, and his body fell backwards uncontrollably.
Fang had just experienced a battle to the death in the inn wing, most of his true qi had been consumed, plus his physical exertion, and he was suffering from multiple sword wounds, even if he urged the Xuanyang Fierce Qi, he couldn't compete with the three assassins who didn't urge the True Qi.
As soon as he thought of this, he felt a little more confused in his heart.
Just as he stumbled back, the three assassins behind him, who had not been far away from him, also swung their swords.
Feeling the dangerous aura surging from behind, Qi Qi slashed back without looking back.
Khooth!
With two crisp sounds, Qi Qi swung open two long knives, but after being blocked by the two long knives, he swung his sword much slower, so the third knife stabbed him in the back.
With a "uh", Qi Qi's chest twitched, and a mouthful of red spit out of his mouth.
Puff!
There was almost no interval, and the three assassins in front of him also stabbed with knives, each piercing a part of his body, and the tip of the knife was stained with the blood in Qi Qi's body and exposed to the air.
"Drink!" shouted in unison, and the six assassins pressed down together, pressing Qi Qi to his knees.
Qi Qi gritted his teeth for support, his eyes were bloodshot, and his temples were beating.
"Give me, get down on your knees!" the six assassins shouted again, their hands unabated, crushing Qi Qi's upper body until Qi Qi's hands were on the ground and all his limbs were on the ground.
Poof!
The sound of six long knives pulling out bloody flesh sounded at the same time, Qi Qi let out a "uh", the strength of his whole body seemed to be sucked away with the pull out of the long knife, and the whole person fell down completely, and every part of his body was tightly attached to the ground of the street.
"Pull back!"
Under the dark night, the indifferent voice of the man in black sounded.
······
The next day, the sword mound, the Jade Girl Peak.
Whenever morning comes, the summit of the Jade Girl Peak is lush, and the sun shines down to make the flowers and plants in the mountains seem to be beating, standing here, there is a feeling of relaxation and happiness.
At the top of this peak, only seven or eight feet from the cliff, a wooden house was built.
In front of the wooden house, a woman sits. She was dressed in white, wrapping her delicate figure, her snow neck was delicate, like a mushroom after a rain, three thousand green silks naturally hung down to her waist, her eyes were closed, her eyelids were slightly pink, and her long eyelashes occasionally trembled like butterflies spreading their wings. Joan's nose is upturned, and Sakura's lips are ruddy. There seems to be a kind of substance between the eyebrows and eyes, and there is a sense of fierceness. Just sitting there, there was an extreme cold air emanating from it, and the flowers and plants around him froze.
Although she is beautiful, she is as beautiful as ice, and people dare not approach. Her presence has made this bright place with the sun more white and bone-chilling in winter.
At a certain moment, she opened her eyes, but suddenly covered her heart and clenched her eyebrows.
"It's... What's wrong?"
"Why is it all of a sudden, angina-like pain?"
After a moment's pause, she stood up. This station shows her upright posture, and her long delicate body gives people a sense of pride.
With a snap, she tapped her toes and flew into the sky like a bird. Under the pressure of the wind, the white clothes clinged to her body, completely outlining the curves of her figure. The plump twin peaks, slender waist, and straight peach buttocks give her a woman's soft beauty.
She swept to another hill, where many disciples were practicing their swords. Her arrival made all the disciples silent, and they stopped what they were doing one after another, and said "Sect Master" to her respectfully.
She nodded lightly in response to these sect disciples and walked into the meeting hall.
······
Qin Zong, Inner Gate.
In an antique wooden house, a woman in a pink dress is playing the harp.
She has a pair of delicate hands, and her slender onion fingers pluck the strings to bring a kind of pleasing to the eye, as if not ten fingers, but ten jumping elves beating on the strings, vivid.
A lock of green silk hung high above her head, and the ends of her hair spread out like a flower, giving her a touch of gentleness and dignity.
Under the pink gauze skirt, the plump and moving body of her delicate body can be faintly seen. There seems to be a river of spring water in her eyes, bright and clear, with a snow-white melon seed face with delicate facial features, beautiful like a woman under a paintbrush. Tankou is open, with a crisp and beautiful voice slowly coming out, singing unknown but very beautiful tunes.
Next to her, there was also a man in white. The man gazed at the woman's side face with that undisguised look of adoration, as if to imprint this delicate side face in his mind. His skin was slightly reddened, which was a manifestation of the man's extreme emotion. His presence added a touch of hot restlessness to the room.
Collapse!
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound, and the woman let out a suspicious "uh", that is, her finger was suddenly accidentally cut by a string, and the glossy blood beads jumped out of the wound.
"What's the matter, junior sister?" the man eagerly approached, and naturally grabbed the woman's hand and looked at it in front of him, and asked with concern.
The woman's attention was not on her hand, and the man caressed her hand for the sake of concern, and her autumn eyes were slightly glazed.
She was immersed in the sound of the piano when an unknown thing popped into her mind, which interrupted her thoughts, and her hand played the wrong string and was injured.
She shook her head vigorously, only to find that the shadow in her mind could not be removed.
"Ahh
This sigh made a look of intoxication appear on the man's face, because the woman's mouthful of Youlan poured into his nose without reservation, allowing him to taste the beautiful Youlan heartily.
The woman only noticed the man's existence at this time, and when she saw that her hand was grabbed by the man, her eyebrows frowned slightly, she pulled back, and said softly, "Senior brother, I'm tired, you can go back." ”
"Uh..." The corners of the man's mouth twitched, he was stunned for a moment, and said with a sneer, "Hehe, okay, then the senior sister will rest early, and the senior brother will not bother you." ”
"Hmm," the woman nodded.
The man left abruptly, and before leaving, he looked back at the woman step by step, and the admiration in his eyes was undisguised.
When the man left, the woman raised her injured finger to look in front of her eyes and muttered, "This, why?"
······
In the dimly lit room, an iron net was erected in the center, and several iron locks were tied to the iron net, connecting a naked man. The man knelt on the ground, his head drooping, his hair unkempt down to his thighs, and his face and body were covered with countless scars. The lips are stained with blood, merge with saliva, collect to the corners of the mouth, and then drip down.
In front of him, stood two men with a thick whip in their hands.
"You said that you did something bad, you want to report the prince, aren't you looking for death?!"
After this day, the man came to a rough conclusion from the two of them: the assassin last night was from the Tianxuan King, because he had accused the Tianxuan King of mishandling the famine in Tianxuan Province. He was imprisoned here, and these people did not intend to give him a way to live, they would torture him to death because he had denounced the Tianxuan King. He wasn't the only one who was locked up here, there were many corpses in the other cages around him, and the two said that these were the ones who had accused the Heavenly Xuan King.
No wonder the famine in Tianxuan Province has not been resolved for a long time, and it is no wonder that the few villagers sent out by Qingshan Village have not been able to come back in the end. They either starved to death on the road, or deliberately exposed the people who had been planted in various places by the Tianxuan King, or they came to the city to report that the Tianxuan King was captured and tortured to death in this cage.
I think that those folds handed over will be cut off by the people of Tianxuan King in the end. This Tianxuan King is really a great ability.
He did this with only one benefit, to get a lot of food. If he didn't provide disaster relief simply because of insufficient food, then there was no need for him Tianxuan King to go to such great lengths. So what can he do with all this food? It's impossible to eat it himself, it's just possible...
He was stationed in the army, and this batch of grain was detained just for him to raise soldiers. And what is the purpose of raising soldiers, I am afraid it will involve bigger and more terrifying things.
But that wasn't what he was supposed to think about right now, the only thing he had to think about right now was how he was going to get out of here.
But now he lacks true qi, he is exhausted, he is guarded by the two and can't breathe it out, with this crippled body alone, he can't even break free from the shackles of the iron chain, how can he break through the layers of defense of this cage and get out?
When I think of this, I can't help but feel a little more desperate in my heart.
Is he really going to die here?
