158 Assassination

158 assassinations

As soon as the curfew came out, the rivers and lakes were in an uproar.

For martial arts people, after dark, they are not allowed to walk around the street at will. During the day, you should not carry weapons and fight with others.

The official family rarely intervenes in martial arts battles, but Linyang City is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and in order to maintain the peace of one party, it is natural to issue a curfew.

It's just that the people in the rivers and lakes are used to being comfortable and bold, and they are not used to being officials, so many people don't pay attention to this curfew. However, now after all, it is in Linyang City, on other people's land, so it is not appropriate to act rashly. On the surface, he still has to sell the face of the official, but when the time comes, he really disobeys the curfew, and the two sides will start to fight, no matter how many martial arts players there are, they will not be able to fight the thousands of troops and horses of the imperial court in other people's territory.

On the surface, it is a matter of doing it, but secretly it is still a matter of doing it, and it is still killing people, and the smoke of gunpowder in Linyang City has not been interrupted.

When Wen Shu got up early to go to the herb shop, he obviously felt that the atmosphere in the city was a lot more tense. Sergeants who changed guards walked through the streets and alleys, and for no reason people felt that a storm was coming.

Wen Shu quickly crossed the street, and it was raining lightly on the road, and Wen Shu did not bring an umbrella when he went out without any sign of rain. When I ran to the herb shop, my skirt was already soaked, and my hair was messy.

The patients in the herb shop did not decrease because it was still early and the weather was bad, because the shop was a little dark because of the gloomy weather, the wind was howling, and the body stained with rain was cool. The patient snuggled up in twos and threes, as if this would warm up a little.

"Doctor Wen, you ...... Don't say anything, go to the inner room to bathe first. Change into dry clothes and come out again. "It's too easy to catch a cold.

Zhao Cheng said, and had already instructed the girl to help Wen Shu fetch water. The tub was also put away. It wasn't long before Wen Shu was in the room where he was examining the patient. A qiē is ready.

Wen Shu said sorry to everyone, returned to the house, and quickly changed into clean clothes and came out. Helping others to see a doctor is not only rude, but also affects your own mood to see a doctor. If you have a headache and brain fever, it will be troublesome. The pharmacy put a few clean changes of clothes, and when the weather was very hot before, Wen Shu had already soaked his clothes after a morning of diagnosis and treatment. Later, for the sake of refreshment. To give himself and the patient a better mental outlook and mood, Wen Shu will also prepare a few sets of clothes in the pharmacy in case of emergency.

Wen Shu had just entered the house, fastened the latch, and took off his clothes halfway through, when he suddenly heard a noise from the roof.

Where did he dare to make any more moves, Wen Shu immediately gathered his clothes, dodged, and hid behind the screen.

There was a slight rattle from the roof tiles. Wen Shu tilted his head and looked up.

Something happened to her consternation.

The tiles were gently lifted, and Wen Shu watched as a small green bamboo tube stretched out, facing the direction of Wen Shu's bath tub. "Knock knock!" Two drops of liquid flowed down the bamboo tube and dripped into the bathtub of Wen Shu.

After the liquid flows out, the bamboo tube is slowly retracted. The tile was moved back into place.

After the movement of the roof disappeared, Wen Shu came out from behind the screen. Standing in front of that tub, I stared at it for a long time.

A gust of wind swept by. The window of the room was slammed open, and a reckless creature rushed in from the outside. Seeing Wen Shu standing on the edge of the bathtub, a nervous man took Wen Shu with the most superb light martial arts, took Wen Shu a few feet away in an instant, and stared at the bath bucket vigilantly.

"Xie Xiaoji, what are you doing here?" Wen Shu was taken aback by him, he rushed out so suddenly, and it was really reckless when others were about to take a bath~

"Miss Wen San, are you okay?" Xie Xiaoji turned his head, looked at Wen Shu carefully, and was relieved to see that she was fine.

"Someone spent 100,000 taels on the rivers and lakes to poison you, do you know?"

"You're going to kill me?"

"Not only do I want to kill you, but I also have to let you die of poison~" Xie Xiaoji's smiling face was also less relaxed than usual, and there was a touch of strictness. "Someone is trying to force you to take action and let you die from the poison you are best at, which is both a provocation and a desire for your life."

Wen Shu let out a long breath, "Could it be that Yaowutang Wan Jinling did it?" "She didn't offend anyone but her. And last time in Bright Moon Castle, she used the Gate of Eternal Life to extinguish her arrogance, so that she finally compromised for it.

She must have hated her to death, and the best way for her to take revenge is for her to die from the poison she pride. This kind of psychology is not incomprehensible to Wen Shu.

"I don't know yet, I received the news, and I accidentally knew that someone was going to attack you today, so I rushed here as soon as possible. I was just outside, and I saw a black shadow escaping, and I was afraid that they had already succeeded......"

What Xie Xiaoji didn't say was that when he saw the black shadow disappear above the herb shop, he actually had an indescribable panic.

He was worried that something had really happened to Wen Shu, and then he wouldn't be able to explain it to his best brother. Not only the Admiralty Tower, but he also never wanted to see Wen Shu have an accident.

Because of his nervousness, he almost forgot that the little witch in front of him was not an ordinary weak woman. If someone else wants to attack her, and they still want her to die of poison, I'm afraid it may not be so easy.

But no matter how powerful Wen Wen Shu is, she doesn't know anything about this kind of assassination trick on the rivers and lakes. The characters in the rivers and lakes have a hundred and a thousand ways to kill Wen Shu, which can make her die unknowingly. Not to mention that Wen Shu didn't know, even if she knew that someone was going to poison her, I am afraid that she would not be able to prevent it.

Just like this time, if it weren't for Wen Shu coming to the room earlier, and it happened that his ears were quite sharp and he heard the movement of the roof. Without noticing, she jumped into the tub, and the consequences were hard to predict.

"They did come close to it." Wen Shu looked at the bath bucket, and Xie Xiaoji followed her line of sight and also saw the half bucket of water.

"Poisoned in the water?"

"Hmm." Wen Shu walked over and looked at the bucket of water, Xie Xiaoji wanted to lean down to see what kind of poison it was. Wen Shu grabbed him, to verify what kind of poison this was, and it was better to stay away from it.

Turn around, pick up the pillow on the bamboo bed, and throw it into the bucket of water. Xie Xiaoji watched Wen Shu's movements, there was no change at first, and slowly, something surprising happened to him.

The soft pillow, after being completely immersed in water, was corroded in an instant, and finally even the shadow of the pillow was invisible, only a little scum remained.

Although Wen Shu had long expected what kind of head this was, he was still frightened to take a step back when he saw that cute soft pillow disappear without a trace.

The face was frightened, shocked. If she had moved a little faster just now, she would have gone down into the barrel. If she hadn't noticed the movement of the roof, and hadn't noticed that others were doing anything in the water, Wen Shu would have been a skeleton or even a pool of blood at this time.

What a terrible thing it is for a living life to disappear in front of your eyes in an instant.

In the past, Wen Shu made poison in order to better cure diseases and exchange life for others. She had never thought about killing anyone with poison. Until you come here, until you touch the poison and open the door to poison, danger will follow.

Xie Xiaoji could feel Wen Shu's fear, patted her on the shoulder, silently comforted her, and gave her courage.

"Third Miss, the Admiralty Tower and I will do our best to find out about this matter, before that, you must be careful, they can't kill you once, and they will come again."

Wen Shu nodded, "I know." ”

"I'll ask a friend for help, and let her protect you during this time."

"Don't bother, I'll be careful."

Xie Xiaoji shook his head, "Third Miss still listens to me this time, my friend's medical skills may not be as high as yours, but she is full of experience." Especially to deal with all kinds of assassinations, very set. We are also relieved to have her by your side to protect you. ”

Speaking of this matter, it is still because of the Mingyue Castle incident, I believe that the Mingyue Fort knows about it, and it will not stay out of it. Miss Wen is an innocent person, and she is involved in this river and lake for no reason, and it will be difficult to be quiet in the future.

Wen Shu lived in a peaceful era, although he also experienced a lot of deaths, but these deaths were all birth, old age, sickness and death, and the way of heaven. She has encountered too few killings like this on the rivers and lakes and all kinds of endless and vicious assassination methods.

However, Wen Shu is an open-minded and optimistic person, and after experiencing the initial fear, he slowly calmed down and regained his composure.

If the other party really wants to kill her, she can't escape. Fear will only make you cowardly, and in the end leave the other party with an opportunity to take advantage of. What she needs to do now is to calm herself down, pay careful attention to her surroundings, save her life, and the people around her, so that they will not be affected because of herself.

"Thank you, thank you." Rush over as soon as you know she's in danger.

"Third Miss, you thank me so seriously, I'm really not used to it~"

"And how do you want me to thank you?" Wen Shu smiled, "Xie Xiaoji, who is the friend you just mentioned?" ”

From the time Xie Xiaoji talked about her, the two mustaches with flying eyebrows could also know that that person must be a wonderful character.

"This, the third lady will know tomorrow."

"Sell it to me?"

"It's not about selling off, let you find out for yourself what kind of person she is. Maybe the two of you can become very good friends. Well, that guy seems to get along well with everyone, and he looks like he can't sleep all day, and his eyes are staring at him as if he can't open them. But no one can make a mistake in front of her, and people are as clever as a ghost~"

"I want to meet her when you say that, she must be a wonderful person."

"I'm not a wonderful person, I'm a troublemaker, and when I meet her, I'm sure nothing good will happen." But if I don't see her for a while, Xie Xiaoji really misses her a little. (To be continued......)
