Chapter 54: The Snake and the Farmer
Yunhe calmly covered his wound and said, "Slow down! I am the special designer designated by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the whole world knows that I am going to Xianchi City with Du Boming." If I make any mistakes on the ship, even Du Boming won't be able to protect you!"
The blade paused less than half a foot away from Yunhe's throat.
Octopus Xiaoyu said in a cold voice: "Young Master Yun, you are not afraid of danger, and you really admire your wisdom and bravery." It's just that if I tell you that it is the gray lord next to the princess who wants to order me to kill you? Yun Gongzi captured the princess's heart but turned a blind eye to the princess's infatuation, naturally he offended all the men in the world. Even if Lord Gray doesn't give an order, there are countless people in this world who want to put Yun Gongzi to death, and Yun Gongzi you will never escape death. ”
Lord Gray, is it referring to the hidden guard Ah Ash beside Princess Chishuang?
"Aren't you Du Boming's mercenary, why do you still want to do it for Ah Ash?" Yunhe asked in horror as he held his stomach and struggled backwards, the blood trailing a step.
Octopus sneered: "People die for money, and birds die for food." Whoever can give me enough money, I will fight for whomever I want. Protecting the Exocet and killing you are not contradictory. ”
Now Yunhe finally understands.
Octopus was employed by two different buyers at the same time, namely Du Boming and Ah Ash.
This has nothing to do with Du Boming.
Leng was stabbed, and as the blood flowed, the spiritual power was also lost.
The current Yunhe really doesn't even have the strength to escape.
He's just trying to stall for time as best he can.
"Young Master Yun, don't delay any longer, no one can save you. Besides, I've told you everything, even if you die, you can be blind, now you can go on the road with peace of mind!" said the octopus, raising the bright knife and cutting it towards Yunhe's throat!
Yunhe thought that he would definitely die this time, but the octopus's knife suddenly stopped in mid-air.
It's less than half an inch away from Yunhe's throat!
Yunhe fixed his eyes and saw that it was Lu Chai who arrived in time and grabbed the octopus's wrist.
Lu Chai originally went to other places to look for wine, but he didn't expect to take a few steps before he heard movement in the cabin, so he immediately turned back.
"Xiao Zhang! Didn't Lord Gray just let us observe Yun Gongzi's every move? When did he give the order to kill Yun Gongzi?
"Lu Chai, you let go!" said the octopus angrily:
"That day, Lord Gray passed a message to our flying pigeons, saying that let's do it, we can't let Yunhe step into Xianchi City alive, but you just happened to be drunk. I see that you usually have a deep relationship with Yunhe, and I am worried that you will not be able to do it, so I plan to deal with it myself. Think about it, what will happen if you disobey Lord Gray's orders? Do you think we have any life to live? I'm doing this for your sake!"
"No! Yun Gongzi is my friend, and he saved me, I can't let you hurt him again!" Lu Chai said angrily.
When Octopus heard this, he looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Lu Chai! Don't deceive yourself! Do you think that people like us can really find friends? If you really regard Yunhe as a friend, how can you report his every move to Lord Gray? And then rely on this in exchange for a high reward? If Yunhe is your friend, your actions like this are betraying your friends!"
Octopus Xiaoyu's words pierced Lu Chai's heart like a knife, making him feel very uncomfortable......
"Xiao Lu, is it really as Octopus said, you are not only a killer under Boss Du, but also a fine work sent by Ah Ash?" Yun He asked bitterly.
"Although I hate to admit it, this is indeed true, but I really regard you as a friend......" Lu Chai smiled bitterly.
"Hehe......" Yunhe is only now realizing how stupid he is.
Unexpectedly, these days, his every move still can't escape the eyes and ears of Princess Chishuang.
Princess Chi Shuang is really haunted! The power actually infiltrated Du Boming's Flying Fish.
Seeing Yunhe like this, Lu Chai thought that Yunhe was hating himself, and he said sadly: "I know that you look down on people like me, and I really don't deserve to have friends." ”
Despite this, Lu Chai still did not let go of the hand that choked the octopus.
Thanks to Lu Chai's timely appearance, the octopus was stopped, otherwise Yunhe would probably be cold by now.
Thinking of Lu Chai's care and enthusiasm for himself all the time, although Yunhe was a little dissatisfied with Lu Chai's coveting of himself, he couldn't hate him in the end.
What's more, now Lu Chai does not hesitate to betray his employer in order to save him.
"Lu Chai, although I'm angry, we're still friends......" Yunhe gasped and laughed.
Yunhe forgave himself?
Lu Chai almost couldn't believe his ears!
All along, he felt very guilty about it. But before he had a friendship with Yunhe, he had already become a detailed work of Ah Ash, on the one hand, it was a professional code, and on the other hand, it was a loyalty to his friends, and Lu Chai was often painfully caught between the two, and it was difficult to choose.
Because Ah Shen only ordered him to record Yunhe's every move before, and he didn't need to hurt Yunhe, and this matter was done without Yunhe, so he could strike a balance between the two.
If he saw that Yunhe was injured and felt guilty, he would stand up and save Yunhe without thinking about it.
There is another thing that Lu Chai and Yunhe can't think of.
It was the effect of that fox blood pill that made Lu Chai have an infinite affection and yearning for Yunhe.
Therefore, when the contradiction became more and more intense, he did not hesitate to choose Yunhe between the two.
"Yunhe, with your words, I am already content. Lu Chai smiled with satisfaction.
Seeing that Yunhe and Lu Chai were still frowning at such times, Octopus Xiaoyu became even more annoyed, and he yelled at Lu Chai angrily: "Lu Chai! What's wrong with you? Recently, you have become more and more strange! More and more unlike you before! Have you been poisoned by Yunhe! Or has he given you any benefits? Why do you defend him so much? Are you crazy?"
Octopus said as his arm pushed down vigorously, and the sharp blade had reached Yunhe's throat.
Due to the broken hair of this knife, the blade just lightly touched Yunhe's neck, leaving a bright red blood mark!
Lu Chai kept holding the octopus's hand tightly, and he couldn't drag it!
Octopus was born as a fisherman when he was a child, and he has developed a good physique and amazing strength since he was a child. And Lu Chai's strength is slightly worse, plus his arm was injured a few days ago, although the wound has healed, but his strength has not fully recovered.
Seeing that the blade was cutting deeper and deeper, and if it continued like this, Yunhe would definitely die, Lu Chai was so anxious that his eyes were red, and he said in a pleading tone: "Xiao Zhang, for the sake of our brothers for many years, I beg you! Let Yunhe go! He is a good person, and he is really good to me, I can't bear to watch him die here......
"Let him go, and we'll both die! Are you for him, and you don't even care about my safety? In other words, it's false that you call me a brother and a brother, and your heart is only for Yunhe? He saved you, didn't I save you? How many times have I saved you over the years when we were on a mission together? Without me, you would have died a long time ago! Is this how you came to repay me?" The octopus was also furious.
Lu Chai said bitterly: "Xiao Zhang, you are right! You also have a life-saving grace for me! Because of this, I don't want to see you make mistakes again and again, and I don't want any of you to have anything wrong! Stop, while the matter can be reversed...... This goes against the will of Lord Gray, we can't stay in Xianchi City anymore, and we can also be like Yunhe and return to the mountains and forests!"
"You're really sick! The entire Supreme Kingdom is the world of the royal family, you think you can hide! I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore! Yunhe must die!"
The octopus roared angrily and kept increasing the strength of its wrist!
Suddenly, there were a few "whooshing ......", and a few cold rays flashed in the dark night, and three sharp arrows pierced the back of the octopus, and the tip of the arrow pierced through the front.
The octopus squirted a mouthful of blood, its eyes widened in horror, and its grip on the hilt of the knife loosened.
"Xiao Zhang!" Lu Chai was startled.
He watched as the octopus fell at his feet, and watched as the octopus's pupils lost the focus of life......
Immediately afterward, there was a sharp pain in his back, and he looked down to see that he had also fallen into the heart with a sharp arrow.
He jerked his head back and saw Du Boming and Su Zhu leading a line of archers standing outside the door.
It turned out that Boss Du brought someone here......
Lu Chai fell down, and before he closed his eyes unwillingly, he said softly to Yunhe: "I'm sorry......"
"Lu Chai!" Yun He called his name sadly, but he was unresponsive.
The vision became more and more blurry, and Yun He could no longer see Lu Chai's dying face clearly.
He only vaguely heard Du Boming's order: "Use the fastest speed to find a doctor to help Yunhe heal his wounds, and thoroughly investigate these two meticulous ......"
"Yunhe, cheer up! I won't let you have anything to do!" Du Boming walked towards the cabin.
"Master, be careful! I don't know if there are any fine works lurking inside!" Su Zhu wanted to persuade Du Boming, but Du Boming couldn't care so much, and rushed to Yunhe with an arrow.
Those archers had no choice but to hug him step by step for the camp, escorting him all the way, countless sharp arrows aimed at Yunhe and Lu Chai and the dark corners around them.
"Boss Du......" Yun He spit out a few words with difficulty, and then fell next to Lu Chai and fainted.
When Yunhe opened his eyes again, he realized that he had returned to his room.
"Yunhe, you're finally awake!I scared me to death just now!" Tang Zixi looked at him worriedly.
Yunhe said softly, "How long have I been in a coma?"
"Soon, half an hour. Tang Zixi said hatefully: "I have heard what Boss Du said, I didn't expect Princess Chishuang to be so hateful, and if she can't get your heart, she will send someone to kill you." ”
"The person who instructed it is Ah Ash, but Ah Ash may not mean the order of the princess palace......" Yun He held Xi Lu with one hand and sat up slowly. Only then did I realize that the wound on my abdomen had been bandaged.
The wound didn't feel painful, the bleeding stopped, and the aura in the sea of qi was overflowing.
Yun He felt that the power of Qing Ning Dan and Zhu Yan Dan was penetrating into his limbs, and the hundred bones were running through the meridians of his whole body, and they were constantly converging into the sea of qi, and the aura had almost recovered.
