Chapter 59: Assassination at Midnight
I can't figure out the relationship between Xiao Jingyao and Jiang Yan, but what Yi Jingxiao knows is that many people are now looking for Jiang Yan's whereabouts, intending to wipe out this last Ning family's bloodline.
The emperor is in a high position, and he is naturally afraid, he is worried that the Ning family will turn over one day, and someone will avenge the more than 100 members of the Ning family, so as long as it is related to the Ning family, it is to kill without forgiveness.
In addition to the people sent by the emperor, there are also people from the king, I heard that the head of Jiang Shi in the rivers and lakes was very high, and whoever killed him could get money that he couldn't spend in his life.
At this time, what is Xiao Jingyao doing with Jiang Yan?
That is Aunt Ning Shu's son, Yi Jingxiao knows that he should protect him, but Xiao Jingyao is by his side, he can't go forward and tell Jiang Yan to go with him, thinking that the two of them can come to Heyinju together to visit Gu Xiangyi, the relationship must not be simple, Xiao Jingyao should not hurt him.
Just thinking about it, Yi Jingxiao turned around and was about to leave, but he heard unusual footsteps.
Going out with him tonight was Zen Jin, and at this moment Zen Jin also heard the footsteps, and asked in a low voice, "Shizi, what should I do?"
"I don't know who I'm here for. ”
The footsteps were well-trained, and there was almost no sound in this quiet night, which showed that they were not ordinary passers-by, and now that there was a curfew in the capital, how could anyone dare to come out? Except for the killer, Yi Jingxiao couldn't think of anyone else.
Jiang Yan and Xiao Jingyao walked through two alleys, and after leaving the streets of Zhongyi Bo's Mansion, they both heard footsteps at the same time.
Their backs were pressed tightly against each other, and the two of them took out their swords at their waists and looked at the comer.
The eight black-clothed people were all masked, each holding a steel knife in their hands, and when they saw them stop, they didn't even hesitate, they rushed up directly, and the sound of the swords intersecting was particularly crisp and harsh.
Jiang Shi has kung fu, and his kung fu may not be as good as Ning Shu and Ning Chu, but it is also considered superior, and Xiao Jingyao is even more so.
How can the young master with fragrant ink be a salted fish?
easily wiped the necks of the two black-clothed people, a cold sword as sharp as ice was held in Xiao Jingyao's hand, and the two black-clothed men behind him who had been wiped off their necks knelt down one after another, making two muffled sounds.
The dark cyan figure rolled up and soared into the air, and after many circles in the air, it fell, Jiang Yan quickly took out his sword after standing still, stabbing directly into the throat of a man in black, and then jumped up and turned around, and the other man in black fell to the ground in response.
The two of them were more than enough to deal with eight people.
But where is a well-trained killer so easy to kill, the person who killed Jiang Yan naturally knows that he has kung fu, and also investigated that he has Xiao Jingyao by his side, these two have always been at the peak of popularity in the capital, who would think that they are powerless? That's a fool.
The remaining black-clothed people who were not dead were all difficult to deal with, the four of them glanced at each other, and headed towards the two of them with their swords, and the six of them fought together, and at first they didn't know the winner.
But with the passage of time, the physical strength of the two people is not as strong as the four people, the four of them use wheel warfare, but they can't kill for a while and a half, the worried Jiang Yan's palms are sweating, his wrist was kicked by the man in black, the hilt of the sword was not held steady, and it fell to the ground.
Jiang Yan, who was about to pick up the sword, just squatted down, and was kicked in the shoulder, he fell forward, and then turned around, seeing the sword glowing with cold light coming straight to the door in front of him, so frightened that he forgot his subconscious shout.
The sleeve arrow the size of a steel nail flew from not far away, nailing the eyes of the man in black, he screamed in pain, and the sword in his hand also fell to the ground, only to see him staggering back with his eyes covered, stumbling on the corpse of his companion, Zen Jin ran out of the alley, and simply took his life.
Yi Jingxiao didn't plan to continue hiding, and followed closely behind Chan Jin, he didn't bring a sword, so he used his fists and feet.
The rest of the men in black saw that two more people were in the battle, and they thought about retreating when they didn't feel good, but it was too late, and it was more than enough for four people to deal with three, and after a while, all three of them were captured alive.
But before Zen could lift their jaws, the three of them swallowed in unison, and black and red blood flowed from their mouths, adding a touch of blood to the quiet night.
"Why did you want to save me?" Jiang Yan looked at Yi Jingxiao and asked with a bitter face.
Ning Chu is his sister, Ning Shu is also his elder brother, and Ning Shu and Yi Jingxiao have always been on good terms, this Jiang Shi knows.
He was grateful to Yi Jingxiao for saving him at a critical moment, but he also felt uncomfortable in his heart. The Guogong Mansion and the Ning'an General's Mansion have close contacts on weekdays, and the old people of the two families have participated in the war together, and the affection is extraordinary, but something happened to the Ning family, and some people in the court spoke out, but more people became mute, such as the Yi family.
Jiang Yan didn't know what Yi Jingxiao's mood was, he might be sad for the Ning family and Ning Shu, and he might have other ideas, but it was because Jiang Yan didn't know that he blamed Yi Jingxiao.
Looking at the childish handsome face, Yi Jingxiao sighed in his heart, he finally found a bloodline of the Ning family for Ning Shu, and it was to comfort him under Jiuquan.
"I've been looking for you. Yi Jingxiao looked at Xiao Jingyao, and said in a cold voice: "There is also Xiao Shu." ”
"Do you also believe that Brother Xiao Shu is not dead?" Jiang Yan didn't know whether he was asking him or himself, and said dejectedly: "This is not the first killer I have met, I think that if Brother Xiao Shu is still alive, it must be more difficult than me." ”
Yi Jingxiao clearly remembered that when he saw Jiang Shi not long ago, when the pear blossoms had just bloomed, Jiang Shi stood under the pear blossom tree, smiling and sunny, beckoning Ning Shu to go over and taste the wine brewed by the Jiang family, and Ning Shu turned around and beckoned Yi Jingxiao to hurry up and follow, saying that the Jiang family must taste it in this life, otherwise he will not be able to close his eyes when he dies.
I don't know if he's still alive or not, or if his eyes are closed.
Only a few months have passed in the blink of an eye, Jiang Yan's whole person has lost a lot of weight, it seems to be a little taller, and his body has also improved, but the deep hatred between his eyebrows can't be dissolved, and he feels uncomfortable when he looks at it.
Reaching out and patting him on the shoulder, Yi Jingxiao paused and said, "Xiao Shu is not your three-legged cat's kung fu, he is amazing, he must be alive and well." ”
This sentence of comfort may be useful to Jiang Yan, but for him, it is of no use at all.
Two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and those killers use any trick in order to succeed in the mission. Poisoning, plotting, throwing hidden weapons, and even blowing sand, etc., there are more mosquitoes and bite elephants to death, where are ordinary people their opponents?
Then he said, "Where do you live now, come with me, I have a little house on the edge of the city, and you will not be found out if you live in it for a while." ”
Jiang Yan shook his head, turned around and pulled Xiao Jingyao: "I live with Brother Xiao now, after I was blasted out by the Jiang family, I met several assassinations, and it was Brother Xiao who saved me." ”
