Chapter 25: The Bait
Seeing that the two killers were unconscious, Shen Lanying closed her eyes, breathed a long sigh of relief, and slowly slid to the ground with her back against the wall, and her tense spirit was finally relaxed. The pen www.biquge.info walked around the edge of the death line and then walked back, making her feel a strong sense of collapse.
Xia Ke leaned over to check the two killers, confirmed that they were unconscious, nodded to Sikong Yan, and then waved his hand, and two more people in black came out of the darkness, picked up the two people on the ground respectively, and disappeared into the darkness again.
Shen Lanying leaned against the wall, gasping slowly, looking at Sikong Yan's expression was a little complicated.
She knew that on Sikong Yan's territory, he would be well aware of potential threats. Someone pretended to be Xuan Ling to trick her out, he must have known!
Sikong Yan slowly walked to Shen Lanying's side, squatted down, stretched out his hand and waved in front of her eyes: "Hey, hey." Shen Lanying, are you okay, weren't you quite calm and decisive just now, what's wrong?
Shen Lanying glanced at Sikong Yan fiercely, although her heart calmed down, her voice still couldn't help but tremble: "You...... Sure enough, you already knew about their existence?"
"Yes, but the exact dynamics are not yet known. ”
Sikong Yan's answer made Shen Lanying feel very funny. She picked the corners of her mouth and sneered, "So, I was used as bait by you?"
Sikong Yan shrugged his shoulders and said, "You can't say that, don't you have the ability to listen to sound and distinguish people, if you don't agree to that woman's request to come out with her, her plan will not be established." After all, you still volunteered!"
The corners of Shen Lanying's mouth twitched, and she said angrily: "What do you mean by voluntary! If they want to kill me, there is always a way to get me out of the inn." What's more, at that time, I thought that Xuanqing Xuanling had already had an accident, and staying inside might even affect Li Yunxuan. ”
Sikong Yan's expression showed a hint of surprise: "You are so kind, Li Yunxuan is the daughter of Li Qing'an, the head of Jinyuan Dart, even if she is injured, at least she has some combat effectiveness, I thought you would at least take advantage of it." ”
"You think everyone is like you!" Shen Lanying rolled her eyes, propped up the ground and wanted to stand up, but she couldn't use her strength at all, so she simply continued to sit on the ground and rest. Sikong Yan was not in a hurry, so he squatted next to her and looked at her.
After a while, Shen Lanying's feeling of weakness finally went down a little, and she asked Sikong Yan again, "By the way, how are the two of them doing with Xuanqing Xuanling?"
"They're very good. ”
Shen Lanying smiled sarcastically: "You know quite well. Then why don't you just catch the killer?"
Sikong Yan said innocently: "I just know that there are those people who assassinated Princess Zhaoying in the first place, but I don't know whether they are men or women, and what their strength is." Besides, if you arrest people directly, wouldn't it be a startling snake, how can you catch them all?"
Shen Lanying's tone was still full of sarcasm: "Then did you arrest them all this time?"
"There are seven people in the area of Kangcheng, and the rest of Xinzhou is not known. It's hard to catch these two live mouths, we're going to deal with the two of them now, do you want to go together?" he said, holding out a hand to Shen Lanying.
"Yes!" Looking at the white and slender hand in front of her, Shen Lanying was stunned for a moment, grabbed it decisively, got up from the ground with his strength, and patted the soil on his clothes with an unhappy face, "Let's go." ”
Sikong Yan nodded, turned around and walked back into the depths of the alley, Shen Lanying following closely behind him. Now that she knows, not only does she not have to worry about Sikong Yan's plan going wrong, but she doesn't even have to worry about her own safety at all, because she is still very useful to Sikong Yan.
It's just that she doesn't fully believe the words given by Sikong Yan. What made her a bait so that she could catch it all, it was obvious that it was to test her!
But it's normal to think about it, after getting along for so long, she has revealed countless flaws, although Sikong Yan has never asked from Lei, but he is a far-sighted person after all, if she doesn't test her a few more times, she will feel abnormal.
But this kind of life is too dangerous.
The moon was bright, and the two walked in the deep alleys, which were more silent and inviting than the noisy street markets.
Shen Lanying walked with her head down all the way, worried about her situation all the way. Sikong Yan suddenly turned his head and said to her, "I really didn't expect it." You almost killed that woman. Have you ever killed people in the past?"
“…… Necessarily not. Shen Lanying was speechless and a little angry, this man was still testing her!
After a pause for a few seconds, she suddenly thought of something, suddenly raised her head, and looked at Sikong Yan with a fierce expression, "Don't you want to train me to be a killer, you won't get your wish!"
Sikong Yan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't, you don't have that talent at all." ”
The corners of Shen Lanying's mouth twitched: "That's the best!"
Sikong Yan asked again: "But I'm curious, how did you gain Xuan Ling's trust in such a short period of time? Even I didn't know that there were still people in Tianquan Village who were good at crafting hidden weapons. ”
Shen Lanying's body stiffened slightly, and she suddenly had some doubts about whether her words and actions would inadvertently harm Xuan Ling. She hesitated for a moment and said, "How do I know." ”
Sikong Yan glanced at her deeply, didn't ask any more questions, the two of them walked silently for about ten minutes, Shen Lanying said softly: "Sikong Yan, I'm not your subordinate now." ”
"Of course, I guess, we're just working together. Sikong Yan smiled disapprovingly as if she already knew what she was going to ask, "Don't worry, I won't use you as bait in the future." Anyway, there is no threat in the future. I can guarantee that at least you will be completely safe until you get to the palace. ”
Shen Lanying frowned at him, but only saw a gentle smile. Silently lowered his head and thought.
It didn't take long to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion in Cannes. Originally, the castle lord's mansion was in the center of Cannes, but later, the economic development of the city caused the city center to be noisy, and the new successor lord was very quiet, so he simply moved the castle lord's mansion to the suburbs, and also forbade traders to trade around the city. This point seems to greatly facilitate Sikong Yan to make a fuss in it.
Sikong Yan was not hindered in any way, and stepped directly into the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. There was not even a single guard in the mansion of the City Lord's Mansion, and all the manpower was concentrated between the outer courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion and the mansion.
Looking at this posture, Shen Lanying couldn't help but be secretly surprised in her heart. The underground base in Wuzhou that he had seen before was reasonable for a careerist, but what happened to Kangcheng? Is even the entire City Lord's Mansion under his control?
