Volume II: The Dark Brotherhood Chapter 37: Assassin's Letterhead

What the little princess said was naturally instructed by Ba Fenghan.

After hearing this, Zhong Yan's face gradually became solemn, and he asked the little princess about the appearance and clothing of the old man.

The little princess glared at Bai Fenghan, who didn't tell her what kind of old man she was at the time, so she made up a nonsense and fictionalized a fairy character with fluttering white clothes.

Unexpectedly, after Zhong Yan heard this, he became silent, and after a long time, he said: "The old man should be the demon path giant who has been hiding in the Demon Beast Forest for ten years. ”

The little princess's expression became a little strange.

Zhong Yandu stepped to the desk and sat down, and slowly spoke, "What that person said can't be fully believed, and you can't believe it, after all, there have been several small-scale beast tides in the past few decades, and the demonic beasts are indeed more active than before, but they can't explain anything, but the situation described by the eldest princess has never happened before, and it must be taken seriously." ”

He looked at Zhang Lu and continued: "The garrisons in various places are ordered to strengthen their vigilance and patrol the front line all day long to deal with emergencies, and in addition, the military enshrinement will replace the scout post and go to the Warcraft Forest to investigate the situation and do everything possible to find out the movements of the Warcraft. ”

After Zhang Lu took the order to retreat, the little princess walked to Zhong Yan's side, "Uncle Zhong, Your Majesty's side?"

Zhong Yan said: "When things have a clue, I will repair a letter to your majesty." ”

The little princess thought that the royal brother, who always said that she would only be naughty and troublesome on weekdays, would soon know that she had made a great contribution, and when she was a little proud, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when she heard these words.

Zhong Yan, who was immersed in reviewing the file again, continued without raising his head: "If the matter is true, the eldest princess has contributed a lot, and Wei Chen will explain it to His Majesty at that time. ”

The little princess smiled: "Then don't disturb Uncle Zhong to deal with official business!"

She glanced at Ba Fenghan and left the military engine room with the latter.

Zhong Yan looked up at the back of the little princess and shook his head with a smile.

——

On the way back, the little princess suddenly stopped Ba Fenghan, flashed her big eyes and said, "Brother Ba, is it time to give me an antidote?"

Bafenghan threw her a pitch-black pill.

The little princess sniffed, it was extremely smelly, and her face was full of disgust: "This is the antidote?"

Ba Fenghan said: "It's up to you whether you eat or not." ”

Then he bypassed her and continued to walk outside the house.

Seeing that he wanted to leave, the black cat arched the softness, and with some reluctance to leave the gentle township, jumped onto Bai Fenghan's shoulder and squatted.

The little princess looked at his back viciously, plucked up the courage to swallow the pill, and the stench rose so that she bent over and retched.

When Ba Fenghan was about to walk out of the mansion, the little princess chased after her and shouted to the two halberd-wielding soldiers in front of the door: "Stop this person!"

Ba Feng looked at her in confusion.

The little princess gritted her teeth and said, "Great villain, if Miss Ben lets you stand and leave today, you will be a princess in vain!"

After taking the antidote, she no longer had to be subject to Ba Fenghan, and the anger she had been holding back finally broke out.

There were heavy troops in the General's Palace, and just as she was about to order one of the guards in front of the door to dispatch men, she suddenly let out a sigh and a cramping pain came from her stomach.

Ba Feng smiled coldly: "Do you really think it's an antidote for you?"

"Isn't it an antidote?" the little princess held her stomach with one hand and pointed to the big villain who was gloating on the other side, her face changed and changed, "Then what are you giving me to eat?!"

Ba Fenghan said: "You don't have to be nervous, although it is not an antidote, it can delay the onset of toxicity, but if you get angry again, I dare not guarantee that it will not attack in advance, and even if you take the antidote, it will be useless." ”

After he put these words down, he walked straight out of the door, and the soldiers in front of the door were about to stop him, but the little princess who followed him with her stomach signaled to retreat.

On the crowded street, the little princess followed the pace of Ba Fenghan, and asked sharply while enduring the pain in her abdomen: "It's only been four hours so far, far from the time for the onset of toxicity, if it's really a temporary suspension of toxicity, why do I have a reaction? You must know that once something happens to me, even if I flee to the ends of the earth, my imperial brother will kill you!"

Ba Fenghan, who had already walked out of half the street, stopped and squinted at her, "The threat is useless to me, it will only backfire, you are a princess of a country, your life is much more expensive than my gold, as for the time of the poisonous attack, it is completely up to you, if you are angry, the poisonous attack will only be faster!"

At this time, the little princess was frightened by his words, and although she wanted to tear the great villain to pieces, she kept telling herself to calm down.

Ba Fenghan looked at her extremely aggrieved look, and continued: "Actually, there is no deep hatred between us, as long as you are obedient, when I feel safe, I will naturally give you an antidote." ”

The little princess shouted: "If you don't feel safe all the time, is it possible that I will stay by your side for the rest of my life?!"

Ba Fenghan was a little surprised, he didn't expect the little princess to think so clearly, he thought about it and said, "It's okay." ”

Then he ignored the weeping little princess and continued to paced.

"It's getting dark, where are you going!" came the voice of the little princess behind him.

Ba Fenghan said: "Naturally, I will find an inn to live in and leave the city tomorrow." ”

After getting a response, the little princess did not follow, but ran to the general's mansion when she came and went.

Ba Fenghan didn't care, and when he left the city tomorrow, he would naturally take the initiative to find him.

Just as he found an inn and was about to enter the door, a passerby walked in front of him, tightly wrapped and only showing a pair of eyes.

The man met Ba Fenghan's alert gaze a few meters away, and made eye contact with him, but as he passed by, he accidentally bumped into an elderly beggar who was hobbling and walked away.

Ba Fenghan held the beggar who almost fell, looking at the distant back, he always felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly, the warning of Xue Zang sounded in the heart lake, and Ba Feng immediately retracted his gaze, and a cold light appeared in front of him.

The elderly beggar who was being supported stabbed him in the heart with a sharp dagger, but he raised his hand to hold the dagger, but despite this, the skin was pierced.

The black cat that had been squatting on his shoulder meowed and threw the beggar to the ground, but even so, he still clenched the dagger, causing a blood line to splash on Bai Fenghan's hand that was tightly gripping the blade, and if it weren't for the spiritual power, I am afraid that half of the palm would have been severed.

Although the Thunder Winged Tiger transformed into a black cat form at this time, it did not have the slightest effect on the strength, and the force was so great that it directly sunken the beggar's chest into it.

The old beggar was full of anger, and when he saw that the assassination could not be completed, he directly turned the dagger and stabbed it into his heart, not giving Bai Fenghan a chance to interrogate him at all.

At this time, there were many people watching the excitement on the street, but they did not find the passerby who knocked down the beggar earlier.

Ba Fenghan retracted his gaze and crouched down to look for clues on the beggar's corpse. After some fumbling around, he finally found a letter in the hidden pocket on the inside of his clothes.

At the same time, the defenders of the city had already heard the news.

Ba Fenghan put the letterhead in his arms, and then got up and stood aside.

Since the deceased was only a beggar, and many people around him witnessed the assassination, the officers and soldiers simply interrogated Ba Fenghan, told him to pay attention to safety, and after dispersing the crowd of onlookers, they dragged the beggar's body away.

Ba Fenghan's gloomy face swept the crowd on the street, and then walked into the inn and opened a guest room.

As soon as he entered the room, he closed the door and opened the letterhead.

To his surprise, there was not a single text on the paper, only a vivid portrait.

Portrait of him!

What really caught his attention, however, was a black flame printed in the lower right corner of the portrait.

Ba Fenghan frowned, searched in his mind, but did not find relevant information, so he asked Xue Zang if he had seen it.

Not long after, Xue Zang's voice rang out, "Remember that Hokuriku remnant? ”

Ba Fenghan naturally remembered, and according to Xue Zang, the Dark Brotherhood had already been wiped out by the alliance of all countries, but he didn't expect that today, he would see the mark of that evil organization again, and it was printed on his portrait, which made him feel terrified.

At this moment, Xue Zang's voice sounded in the heart lake again, "Every Beilu remnant has a natal soul lamp, and when he dies, the lamp goes out, but the clansmen can trace the last picture that the deceased saw in their eyes through that soul lamp." It must have been the other surviving remnants who saw you through the soul lamp, and even knew about my existence, so they sent someone to assassinate you, and they were able to find you so quickly, and it seems that they have recovered from the slaughter of the countries, and even the actions against them back then did not hurt the roots, but only made them hibernate. ”

Ba Fenghan felt a chill down his spine and said in a deep voice, "You mean that not only are the remnants of the Northern Continent still alive, but the Dark Brotherhood they established has always been active under the noses of the world?"

Xue Zang replied, "The members of the Dark Brotherhood include ordinary people such as the beggar, as well as spiritual cultivators and other aliens, all of whom are extremely vicious and vicious, and you must be careful of everyone around you from now on, they will never give up!"
