Chapter 30: Assassination (2)
The girl was stunned for a moment, and replied, "I'm a good friend." ”
?
Xiang Jinxiu pulled the corners of his mouth: "You are good to be a tiger Weiwei?" That's why you know me? ”
?
The girl grinned, acquiescing. Xiang Jinxiu had a bottom in his heart: "You are good to Lan Zhi, right?" ”
?
The girl was surprised and said, "Huh": "How can Lord Xiang know!" ”
?
Xiang Jinxiu also smiled. Of course he knew. Lan Zhi Chinese New Year's Eve drunken and snatched a prostitute. He had heard about the woman's affairs a long time ago, and he only hated that he was not present at the time, otherwise he would have tried to stop it and never let her succeed.
?
He had seen Lan Zhi unpleasant for a long time, but because of Duan Ling, he didn't dare to do too much. Unexpectedly, today, I met her good friend here......
?
- If he takes this girl back to treat his subordinates, Lan Zhi will be depressed if he knows about it, right?
?
Xiang Jin Xiu returned to the girl's side and grabbed her arm: "It's okay if you are from Xinfeng Academy, it just so happens that I am holding a banquet today, so you can follow me into the house to accompany the guests!" ”
?
The girl hurriedly shirked: "Slow down to adults!" Lianxue is now clear, and she can't enter the house to accompany guests! Please forgive me! ”
?
Xiang Jinxiu raised his eyebrows, and did not let go: "You also went to the barracks on Chinese New Year's Eve, how can you become a Qingqian now?" ”
?
Seeing that he didn't let go, the girl hurriedly said, "I'm really clear!" After Chinese New Year's Eve, Lan Zhi helped me get ready. Now I'm doing a clean-up in Shinho-in, and I can come back here as soon as the time passes (21 o'clock). Lan Zhi wanted to redeem me, but unfortunately her mother's asking price was too high, and she didn't want to rob and cause trouble, so she gave up. She tried to break free again: "I promised her that I would not accompany others again, and please fulfill it to adults." After all...... You and Lan Zhi are colleagues. ”
?
When Xiang Jinxiu heard the last sentence, he immediately looked gloomy: "But just a small flag, you are also worthy of being called my colleague?!" ”
?
The girl seemed to be a little frightened, opened her mouth, and said in a half-loud voice: "Lan Zhi...... She is the person next to Master Duan. ”
?
Xiang Jinxiu only felt a wave of anger rushing to his heart: "What do you mean by this!" ”
?
- Duan Ling Duan Ling! It's Duan Ling again!
?
- When the prison was in prison, Lan Zhi carried out Duan Ling and forced him to eliminate his killing intent, so that's it! Now a prostitute in a green house. Female, a lowly native of the Central Plains, even dared to lift out Duan Ling to suppress him!
?
- He was really afraid of Duan Ling!
?
He was still suppressing his temper there, but the girl said timidly: "Lord Duan has been a confidant of the saint for many years, but he has been low-key in recent years, so he has not been promoted. Why should Lord Xiang be evil to him for my sake? ”
?
This is simply adding fuel to the fire! Xiang Jinxiu knew that what the girl said was true: every time he went on a campaign, the saint first considered letting Duan Ling go on the expedition, but that person shirked it many times, so he took advantage of it and became the general of the Central Plains country. In last year's expedition to White Korea, Shengshang even used the hairy boy recommended by Duan Ling as a general, but he could only follow as a deputy general.
?
Xiang Jinxiu laughed angrily: "Heh, the little girl knows a lot!" This is all your good Lan Zhi suing you, right? What else did she say? Said that although I was the main envoy of the Tiger Guard, I was very jealous of Duan Ling? Said that as long as Duan Ling was willing, he could replace me? ”
?
The girl shook her head in fright: "No, no ......"
?
Xiang Jinxiu stared at the girl, and suddenly felt that just watching others humiliate her, or just making Lan Zhi depressed, was no longer enough to relieve her anger. He suppressed his anger: "Why are you so nervous, are you still afraid that I will deal with you and a little girl?" He softened his tone again: "You said that Lan Zhi bought this house for you?" She treats you well, doesn't she? ”
?
At the mention of Lan Zhi, the girl relaxed, and the corners of her mouth couldn't hide a smile: "She treats me very well." We agreed that when she had saved enough money, she would redeem herself for me, take me out of Haotian City, and find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live together. ”
?
Xiang Jinxiu heard this, and there was a smile on his face: "The plan is so good, Lan Zhi really treats you with heart."
?
- If you have such a heart, if you see your beloved being humiliated, you must be angry, right?
?
- In a fit of rage, if you do any of the following things to him...... He took the opportunity to kill her, and Duan Ling could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, right?
?
- he can't kill her, it can make her uncomfortable, and he has calculated his breath!
?
Xiang Jinxiu secretly plotted and asked, "She comes here to find you every night?" ”
?
The girl didn't seem to know what was going on in his heart, and nodded: "She will come here every night, and she will return to Huweiwei until dawn." ”
?
Xiang Jinxiu nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, good." It's rare that your affection is sincere, and I want to fulfill it. He walked towards the door, and as he went out, he turned back to the girl and smiled strangely, and emphasized, "...... For Duan Ling's sake. ”
?
said that Lan Zhi unexpectedly received a message from Du Lianxue that evening. In the letter, Du Lianxue said that she had something important to discuss with her, and told her an address. Although Lan Zhi didn't understand why she didn't stay in Xinfeng Courtyard, she still went as she was told.
?
When I came to the hut where Du Lianxue was, it was the beginning of the year (19 o'clock). Du Lianxue was sitting alone in the bedroom on the second floor, and when she saw her coming, she slowly spoke: "Sister, I lied to you when I said that I had handed over the Dragon and Phoenix Gu to others for research. ”
?
Lan Zhi frowned at her. Du Lianxue smiled: "Actually...... I planted it on myself. ”
?
Lan Zhi only felt bad: "What do you want to do?" ”
?
The smile on Du Lianxue's face faded, and she said word by word: "I said that if I want to help you kill Xiang Jinxiu, I will definitely do it." ”
?
Lan Zhi looked at her fixedly, and sighed half-loudly: "I also said that there are many issues to consider......"
?
"I know. The chief has already taken into account the problems you mentioned. Du Lianxue interrupted her: "I am not alone in this operation, the leader has made a careful plan.
?
Lan Zhi's brows tightened: "Ren Yuanbai also knows about this?" He actually agreed to you planting Gu? She was very displeased: "What nonsense! ”
?
Du Lianxue was unhappy: "This operation is not just for you. Xiang Jinxiu is the general of Yuyuan, and he is the person who destroyed the Central Plains, and we have long wanted to kill him. Since I have the opportunity this time, I have to do it. She told about today's events, and said coldly at the end: "The leader has a careful plan, I am in the Ming, and I am in the open, and I will be provoked to Jinxiu to arrest me into the mansion to vent my anger, and the rest of the killers are in the dark, and when the Gu worm attacks, I will kill him in one fell swoop." The leader even thought about how to exonerate me afterwards, how can it be nonsense? ”
?
Lan Zhi squinted: "But if this larva is anti-devouring the host, or it is useless, or it kills you first when Xiang Jin cultivates the Gu, what should you do?" ”
?
Du Lianxue retorted sharply: "Those who become big things, how can there be no risks!" Don't say anything more! When I called you over, I asked you to choose, if you want to go into the trap of cultivating with you, do you want to act with us. Xiang Jinxiu is not allowed to set a trap waiting for you, if you go with us, you may encounter danger. But I know the regret that the enemy can't die in front of me, so I'll let you know. ”
?
Lan Zhi and Du Lianxue looked at each other. Thinking that if she went, Ren Yuanbai would eventually have more help here, and Du Lianxue would also have one more chance of life, plus killing Jinxiu was what she wanted to do, Lan Zhi finally sighed secretly: "I'll go with you." ”
?
That night, Lan Zhi and Du Lianxue lay side by side on the bed, sharing the bed and being silent. At the end of the hour (11 p.m.), the sound of horses' hooves was heard on the street corner. Lan Zhi sat up straight and began to undress. Du Lianxue's hearing is not as good as Lan Zhi's, it can be seen that she undressed, and she did not hesitate to sit up, and then took off until only her belly pocket remained.
?
Lan Zhi turned her head to look and saw Du Lianxue shivering half-naked, and the corners of her eyes jumped. The sound of breaking the door downstairs sounded at this moment, and Lan Zhi couldn't say the lesson in her stomach, so she could only say in a low voice: "Let people know that you are asleep, why do you take off so much?" Wear a piece of mid-shirt quickly. ”
?
Footsteps rattled and old stairs creaked. Du Lianxue half lay down, glanced at Lan Zhi, and finally took a middle coat, but only draped it on her shoulders: "You can't freeze to death, take care of yourself." ”
?
After saying this, the bedroom door was kicked open! Lan Zhi couldn't care about anything else, waved her hand to light the candlestick, and jumped out of bed to grab the sword by the wall.
?
But someone moved faster than her. The two men blocked her path with a front and back attack, apparently prepared. Five more men poured in at the door. The leader had a long scar on his face, he looked at Lan Zhi, then at Du Lianxue, and pretended to ask, "Who is Du Lianxue?" ”
?
Du Lianxue was very cooperative, and immediately hugged the quilt on the bed with a panicked face. Lan Zhi also said nervously: "I am Hu Weiwei Xiaoqi Lan Zhi, what do you mean by forcibly breaking into my house at this time?" ”
?
The scar man sneered: "I don't care who you are, my family is still the Tiger Guard!" He smiled and said to Du Lianxue: "Lord Xiang said goodbye to you today, I am very concerned, and I sent me to invite the girl into the house for a gathering." ”
?
Du Lianxue shook her head again and again: "I'm not going, I'm not going, promise the adults to let me go......"
?
The scar man glared: "What are these words, girl!" What does it mean to 'let go'! Isn't it your blessing to favor adults? He waved his hand at the rest of the people: "What are you doing standing stupidly?" Don't take Miss Du back to the house yet! ”
?
Lan Zhi hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop it: "Several, there may be a misunderstanding in this matter, why don't you let me go and meet Lord Xiang first and explain the ......reason."
?
The scar man gave him a look, and two of them came to block Lan Zhi. He pulled the corners of his mouth: "This is not good, I asked the adults to ask for Du Lianxue, I just acted on orders, and I was offended." ”
?
The rest of the people set up Du Lianxue and wanted to drag her out of the house. Du Lianxue's tears flowed, she looked at Lan Zhi, and called "sister" in a sad voice, her acting skills were really first-class.
?
Lan Zhi saw that her middle shirt was about to fall off during the pull, and she only hated her for not listening to herself. But he didn't dare to forget his role, clenched his hands into fists, secretly gritted his teeth, looked at his sword, his face was angry for a while, and then looked at the men, and finally retreated silently.
?
Seeing this, Scarface smiled mockingly, and left with Du Lianxue in satisfaction. Lan Zhi went downstairs with a struggling face, stood at the door and watched the group leave, then went back to the house, expressionless and changed into the night clothes that Du Lianxue had prepared for her. She covered her face with a black cloth, then pushed open the window and plunged down the stairs.
?
As soon as Lan Zhi went out, she noticed that someone was following. She walked around the street a few times, shook off the people, and then went to the agreed place. Xiang Jinxiu's mansion is located on Ninth Street, Lan Zhi walked quietly in an alley on Ninth Street, and sure enough, she saw a white porcelain elephant in front of a family, and three pillars of incense were burning next to the white elephant.
?
Lan Zhi tapped three times on the courtyard door, and the courtyard door opened silently. There were already dozens of people standing in the courtyard, all like her, dressed in black and masked. One of them nodded at her, and didn't ask much, but said in a deep voice: "We plan to divide our troops into four ways and enter Xiangfu one after another." The first three roads led away to the garrison of the mansion, and the last one took advantage of the emptiness of the defense in the mansion to kill Xiang Jinxiu in one fell swoop. He asked, "Which one are you going to join?" ”
?
Lan Zhi didn't hesitate to answer: "I'll go kill to Jinxiu." ”
?
The man nodded in agreement, "Okay." He looked into Lan Zhi's eyes in the dark night: "I don't know who you are, but if the leader trusts you, I will trust you." Don't hold back, let's go! ”
