9. Assassination
Lin Ze stood behind the door and took a deep breath, clenched the sword in his hand with his right hand, and opened the door violently with his left hand, stunned, there was nothing outside the door.
It is said that there are demons in the palace, and now it seems that it is true. Lin Ze put away his sword and closed the door, and suddenly something flew in from the door, he was a little panicked, that thing was too fast for him to react, and he couldn't stop it if he wanted to.
"Tsk." A multicolored bird circled around the room and landed firmly on his shoulder.
"Huh?" It was actually a parrot, and he relaxed and caught a glimpse of a letter tied to the bird's leg. He wondered who else in the palace would write to him, so he took a look at the handwriting and smiled. Most of the brothers and sisters in the Ukiyo Mountain are good at writing, which is also a method of self-cultivation, but few people can surpass Mu Ran. Mu Ran's characters are timeless and elegant, self-contained, and difficult to imitate. So when Lin Ze saw Mu Ran's words, he knew that this parrot was sending a letter on his behalf.
The letter detailed his situation, and said that he should leave the palace overnight, and even Lord Liluo said that there was danger in the palace, and Bi Guichen had her own task. Lin Ze thought about it, he really couldn't help here, and the senior brother was attacked as soon as he left the palace, thinking that they were all targeted. He pondered the words "being targeted" in his mind for a long time, and suddenly became anxious, the bridges that are often found in the Jianghu dialect, when there is a turn for the better, it is the time when people are least vigilant, and it is at this time that many people start. So, he found that his turning point was exactly at this time.
He jumped up and closed the door, it was too late. The walls of the courtyard were full of archers, who drew their bows and waited with bated breath, apparently ready.
"Huh!" Lin Ze gasped, feeling that he probably wouldn't be able to escape today. "You go!" He said to the bird. It was easy for people to come and deliver him a letter, and he didn't want to kill him here.
The little parrot apparently saw the situation outside, and was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, so she kept chattering around the house.
"I didn't expect the little boy to be so affectionate to a bird." A nice female voice came from outside the courtyard. "We don't want to embarrass our son, we just want to ask you to do us a favor."
"I'm not a son, I'm just a cultivator, and I can't help you much." Lin Ze stabilized his mind, and the other party seemed to have no intention of hurting him for the time being.
"Alright, Daoist, I'll get straight to the point. The first god in the world is said to be imprisoned in the heavenly prison, and I want to ask the Taoist to take her away. ”
Hey, what's wrong? Although Lin Ze's brain is easy to use, there are still many places that he can't see clearly in the palace. For example, he thought that Senior Brother Qiu had a different intention to lock Bi Guichen up, although he kept saying that he was protecting her, but he caused her to be so seriously injured. But now these people are coming and threatening him with force to let him take people away, and Senior Brother Mu Ran said that she has her own mission, could it be that Senior Brother Qiu really locked her up on purpose? But even so, it shouldn't have beaten her all over her body so realistically.
"Let's show our true form." Lin Ze tightened the sword in his hand and said coldly.
He is a cultivator, and although he rarely sees demons, he is no stranger to their aura. In the direction of the woman's voice outside, there was a faint demonic aura.
"The little boy laughed, there is Ziweixing in this palace to protect him, how can there be a demon?" The woman laughed. "I am on the order of the eldest prince to release Miss Bi who is imprisoned in the prison. The prince said that everything was a misunderstanding, and the third prince was really impulsive, which damaged the royal face. ”
"Yes, the Ziwei Star in this palace is so faint that it barely sees the light, but the other stars are bright and bright, you might as well go back and tell your master, who the Ziwei Star falls on, it is a fate, and it cannot be changed." Lin Ze took a deep breath, "Since you were ordered by the emperor to release Miss Bi, please go directly to the heavenly prison, what are you doing here around me?" ”
"Hehe, the little boy is really interesting, you have been cultivating immortals for so long, you should know that someone's life is variable, and he will be reincarnated in uncontrollable changes all his life." As the woman spoke, a figure gradually appeared in the courtyard. "I'm afraid that if we go to release Miss Bi, she won't leave."
is a girl in white, and she looks incredibly beautiful from a distance. Lin Ze sighed, thinking not about finally seeing the demon, but about how to survive in the hands of this demon. It seems that there are many people who are eyeing Bi Guichen, and they can't see the power behind the girl in front of them.
"Tsk." The parrot on its shoulder suddenly barked fiercely at the woman in front of her.
"It's this stupid parrot again." The woman muttered softly and smiled at Lin Ze, "If Childe doesn't want to leave, I'm afraid he won't be able to go." ”
"So, I can't go." The sudden death of a person from the Ukiyo-e Mountain in the Imperial Palace, the royal family has no way to explain. But if he dies outside, no one will have to confess. He was curious why the other party didn't use spells directly, after all, for demons, they were too lazy to mobilize the people if they could solve the problem with a single move. Perhaps, what is the limitation?
"You're really ......" toast without eating and drinking. The woman in white looked cold after speaking, and beckoned back.
Dozens of arrows roared from the wall and beckoned towards Lin Ze, who hurriedly hid behind the only large column in the room, glad that it was a load-bearing column. The little parrot also knew that this was extraordinary, so he found a cabinet to hide, and didn't dare to shout loudly.
"If I die here, the guy behind you won't be able to eat and walk around." Lin Ze spoke slowly, "The reason why you are so angry and corrupt is because Miss Bi has done something terrible to affect your plans." But you don't care about the royal family, which means that he is already an outcast, and it is useless to you......"
The woman in white wanted to rush into the house, but unfortunately, even if the purple microstar in the palace was weak, the palace where the prince lived was also protected by the gods, even if it was this side hall, she didn't dare to enter it easily, but she couldn't let him go.
"Little boy, I don't plan to give you answers to all your questions, since you don't want to take Bi Guichen away and want to stay in the palace to watch the play, don't blame me for being unkind." The face of the woman in white was about to freeze, and she finally came up with a killer idea. With a wave of his hand, the archers at the head of the wall were ready, but this time they used arrows with the tips soaked in fire oil and lit on fire. As long as this fire is burned and the people inside are burned to death, she will take people to clean up the scene and make the illusion of an accidental fire, and all the problems will be solved.
As for Bi Guichen, she has a way to let her leave the capital, or, leave this world. It's just that someone wants to save her life, saying that she is a rare variable that can help their plans go smoothly.
The woman in white waved her hand, and dozens of rockets shot towards Lin Ze's house, and countless rockets quickly burned in the house. The fire grew bigger and bigger, eventually too big to be extinguished. There was a commotion in the palace for a long time, the first emperor was assassinated in the fire not long ago, and now the little prince of Ukiyo Mountain also ended the same, so the people were panicked and difficult to appease. The eldest prince ordered a thorough investigation, but there was no result.
