45. Anti-eye (1)

As soon as Lan Zhi went out, she saw that the Qiu Mansion was in chaos. Most of the stage was collapsed by the Central Plains people, the tables and chairs overturned and the bricks and tiles scattered, not to mention the assassins and the guards and guests, and the female relatives cried and ran away.

But this chaotic scene where everyone was too busy to take care of themselves made Little Peach calm. She nodded at Lan Zhi, and then walked towards the inner courtyard with a determined expression. Lan Zhi didn't lie to her, and sure enough, she followed her from afar. She knew that her actions were dangerous, but Xiao Taohong was the person who was most familiar with Qiufu, and she was also the most likely person to steal the token. For the sake of Ren Yuanbai, and perhaps for the sake of the Central Plains, Lan Zhi decided to take a final risk.

Along the way, unexpectedly smooth. Occasionally, when a family member or guard encounters Little Pink, they all make a simple salute and leave in a hurry. Lan Zhi followed Xiao Taohong to the end of the inner courtyard from afar, and saw her enter a small courtyard, but after half a pillar of incense, she came out with joy on her face, knowing that she had already obtained the token, and felt relieved.

There was no one else, Lan Zhi thought about it, and decided to send the Buddha to the west, so she simply took over the token and sent it to Ren Yuanbai. She jumped into the courtyard a few times, but as soon as she landed, she sensed that something was wrong: she heard a slight breathing.

For a while, Lan Zhi was shocked: There are people in this courtyard! And more than one! These people breathe for a long time, and they are all martial arts masters!

Little Peach didn't notice it, and ran towards her happily: "I got it!" The leader said that I should go to the outer court to connect with another person, do I need it now? Do you want to hand it over to you directly? โ€

Lan Zhi didn't answer, but said slowly: "What about the token?" Show me first. โ€

Little Pink took out the token in her arms and handed it to Lan Zhi. Lan Zhi took it and flipped through it to check it over and over again, as if she was distinguishing between the real and the fake. Her face was waveless, but her mind was racing: someone was ambushed in the small courtyard, but she allowed Xiao Peach to steal the token, what does this mean?

- They deliberately let Little Peach leave with the token, just to use the token to lure the snake out of the hole and catch the person behind Little Pink!

- Ren Yuanbai's worries are really right, this banquet is really fraudulent!

Lan Zhi's palms were sweating: It's not good! Ren Yuanbai has fallen into a trap, and she has also been discovered. What to do?!

Seeing that Lan Zhi didn't speak, Xiao Taohong asked a little nervously, "What's wrong?" This token can't be fake, right? โ€

But in an instant, Lan Zhi's mind was already settled. She handed the token back to Little Pink: "The token is real, but I have another task, you still follow the leader's arrangement and go to the outer courtyard to connect with people." โ€

The success of stealing the token made Xiao Taohong's confidence greatly increased, and she did not hesitate to shirk it, but only hid the token and said: "Then I will go, you should be careful." โ€

Lan Zhi saw her leave, and then she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and she was about to go out, but she shook her hand violently and threw the vial hidden in her sleeve to the ground!

The vial was Ren Yuanbai's thing, and Lan Zhi took it when she searched for the antidote that day, but unexpectedly it came in handy today. It landed on the bluestone slab bricks, and it didn't make much noise, but it shattered instantly, and the smoke rose instantly! In the thick smoke, Lan Zhi jumped up, the sword was silently unsheathed, and it stabbed towards the man in black hiding behind the roof plaque!

The incident happened too suddenly, and there was thick smoke to cover it, and the man in black couldn't react, and was stabbed in the chest by her sword! Fall to the ground! Lan Zhi struck a blow, turned around without hesitation, and rushed towards the second man in black hiding in the tree!

The greater the fire in the Autumn Mansion, the reddening of Lan Zhi's eyes. The cold eyes of Su Ri were full of firm killing intent at this time: she must not reveal her identity! Otherwise, Duan Ling will definitely be involved! These three ambushers must be killed! Then go and report to Ren Yuanbai!

But the second attack didn't go well. The other party already knows her plans, and if she is on guard, she will naturally not sit still. I saw that the figure in black stretched, and a dagger stabbed diagonally, blocking her attack! At the same time, the third man in black also jumped off the roof and went straight to Lan Zhi's back!

Lan Zhi heard the movement behind her, but she didn't have time to pay attention to it. She must deal with the opponent in front of her before the two of them outflank her. The other party's kung fu is better than her, but he wants to capture her alive, and he has a heart of procrastination. This gave Lan Zhi an opportunity. She only attacked and couldn't defend herself, and let the opponent's dagger stab her in the ribs, but she took the opportunity to approach and swept her elbow heavily! Crushed each other's throats!

But before she could withdraw her hand, a third man in black had already come behind her. Lan Zhi heard the sound of breaking the air above her head, but she couldn't dodge, so she had to turn around, stagger her head and neck, and wanted to meet the blow with her shoulder!

The expected pain did not come. Lan Zhiwolf flashed a few meters away, and then turned his head to look: he saw that the man in black was staring, and there was still disbelief in his eyes, but his head was crooked at a bizarre angle, and he had broken his neck by life!

The body of the man in black slowly fell, smashing on the bluestone brick, and Lan Zhi saw the ...... standing behind him Duan Ling's face was gloomy.

For a moment, the place where the dagger had been injured suddenly became painful. Lan Zhi covered her ribs, panted and called: "Brother......"

Duan Ling stepped forward without expression, picked up Lan Zhi, and said, "It's not safe here." Then he jumped out of the courtyard.

Duan Ling took up his light skills and ran in the inner courtyard, Lan Zhi curled up in his arms, looking at him through the light that was bright and dark, and inexplicably noticed that the man's expression was unprecedentedly cold. She felt that she had caused trouble to Duan Ling again, and she wanted to apologize: "Brother, I ......"

Duan Ling interrupted her. The man's voice was unexpectedly calm: "The scene is basically controlled." After a while, I will go to the outer courtyard to find you a doctor, and then you will rest obediently. โ€

Lan Zhi opened her mouth for a moment, and finally said, "The injury is not in the way...... I'm in a hurry, so I have to get out first. โ€

I don't know if it's her illusion, Duan Ling heard this, and his footsteps seemed to freeze for a moment. He walked in silence until the sound of killing in the outer courtyard approached, and then he spoke, "It's too late." Hu Weiwei has already been dispatched, and it is too late for you to rush to report to Ren Yuanbai now. โ€

Lan Zhi's body froze. She raised her head a little and looked at Duan Ling: "...... You already knew? โ€

The outer courtyard was not far away, and Duan Ling finally stopped and looked down at Lan Zhi. He felt very strange, the light was bright and dim, but he clearly saw the meaning of questioning in Lan Zhi's eyes. This made him suddenly irritable and depressed. He thought, he didn't ask why she appeared in the inner courtyard, why she fought with the secret guard, and whether there was another purpose for coming to the banquet, but she first suspected that he knew about it and didn't report it?

But now is not a good time to talk. Duan Ling said simply: "I also just found out. โ€

Silence again. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Lan Zhi let out an unclear "oh", but she helped Duan Ling's shoulder and twisted around and stood underground. She looked away at the outer courtyard, "I'm fine." Since Hu Weiwei is dispatched, then my brother should go and show his face, otherwise I am afraid that it will arouse suspicion. โ€

Duan Ling didn't leave. He looked at the woman's side face: "What about you?" โ€

Lan Zhi turned her head and said vaguely: "Me? I'll just go outside and find someone to see the wounds. โ€

When she said this, she was very anxious in her heart. She felt that Duan Ling would not believe her words, but she was worried about Ren Yuanbai's safety and had no time to waste here. I didn't know what to do, but I heard Duan Ling sigh softly, and then there was a gust of wind!

Lan Zhi was shocked, and hurriedly turned her head to dodge! But it's too late! She only felt a pain in the back of her neck, and her eyes went black and she lost consciousness.

Duan Ling hugged Lan Zhi's limp body and sighed again. Under the night and firelight, he gently stroked the woman's scattered hair, and muttered: "You have done so many things behind my back, I have never blamed you......" He slowly lowered his head and imprinted a kiss on Lan Zhi's forehead: "So this time, you forgive me...... Luckily? โ€

At the end of the kiss, Duan Ling raised his head, his face was already cold and hard. He picked up Lan Zhi again, jumped a few times, and went directly out of the Qiu Mansion. In the alley, Ren Qianhu was waiting by the carriage, and when he saw him appear, he stepped forward with a happy face: "My lord, after the leader got the token, he really went to the Proton Mansion and took the prince away." I don't know where they got the โ–กโ–ก, now there are explosions and fires in the city, people everywhere are panicking, Qiu Yucheng is in a hurry and has no time to take care of him, it is the time for Hu Weiwei to show his skills! โ€

If Lan Zhi was sober at this time, she would be relieved to hear this: although her younger brother was in the middle of the scheme, he still had a trick in the end. As long as Hu Weiwei didn't intervene, he could take advantage of the chaos to take the prince to escape.

But Duan Ling didn't react at all when he heard this. In fact, as early as when he saw Lan Zhi fighting with the dark guard, he had a decision in his heart: he could let Yuan Bai live, but he couldn't let the Central Plains Prince flee with Ren Yuanbai, otherwise he would do too much, and he was afraid that he would arouse Qiu Yucheng's suspicion. But if the prince doesn't leave Haotian City, how can Ren Yuanbai give up? In the future, if Ren Yuanbai does something more, he will implicate Lan Zhi......

Duan Ling's hand holding Lan Zhi tightened slightly, and the thought in his heart became more and more firm: instead of being frightened in the future, it is better to use the name of Qiu Yucheng's design to eliminate Ren Yuanbai's future troubles!

Duan Ling lifted the curtain and carefully put Lan Zhi on the cushion in the car. Then he got out of the car and said to Ren Qianhu: "Send her back to my house, you watch her personally." I'm not coming back, don't let her out. โ€

Ren Qianhu was stunned: "My lord, this ......"

Duan Ling no longer managed a thousand households. He led the horse that had been prepared a long time ago, turned over on the horse, raised the horsewhip and shouted, "Drive!" "Just ride away!

Behind him, the fire in Qiufu was finally extinguished. The guards and family members were busy tidying up the scene and settling the wounded, but no one noticed that there was a person hiding on the top of the highest lobby in the Autumn Mansion.

Si Yang stood on top of the lobby, put the small long barrel in his hand into his arms, was silent for a moment, and suddenly laughed lowly.

- She saw it! She saw it all!

It was not in vain that she spent a lot of money to buy this strange thing from a Western merchant, and she could see things from miles away. A few months after Yuan Qiaoqiao's death, she was secretly paying attention to Duan Ling, but she never caught this person's handle. After the fire broke out tonight, she became suspicious when she saw Duan Ling looking for Ren Qianhu to whisper. She knew that with her own skills, it was impossible to follow Duan Ling, so she hid on the top of this hall, and peeped with this clairvoyance, and sure enough, she saw Duan Ling sneaking into the inner courtyard of the Qiu Mansion, and together with Lan Zhi who appeared out of nowhere, they joined forces to kill the three family members!

But soon, Si Yang couldn't get excited again. She did see a qiฤ“, but there was no real evidence, how many people would believe what she said?

Si Yang pondered for a moment, and also took advantage of the unpreparedness to enter the inner courtyard. The three corpses in front of the small building have not been cleaned up yet, and I think that everyone in the house has gone to the outer courtyard, and no one has noticed here. She gently pushed open the door of the small building and dodged in, just to see what was in the building, maybe she could find clues and find evidence.

But she rummaged around the building, but only saw some ordinary utensils, and in desperation, she had to turn out in disappointment. Unwilling and hateful gnawed at her heart, Si Yang stood in the courtyard, unable to bear a heavy punch! Pound on the trunk of a tree on the side!

The branches shook violently, and the fallen leaves fell one after another. Si Yang's gaze unconsciously followed the leaves to the ground, but he accidentally found a corpse next to the tree...... I opened my eyes!

Si Yang was shocked! When she looked closely, she saw that the man was looking at her, his mouth moved slightly, and there was a cry for help in his eyes!

- This man is not dead!

Ecstasy wells up in my heart! Si Yang rushed to the man's side and shouted, "Hold on!" Hold on! I'll find you a doctor! โ€
