Chapter 137: Wounded
In the dead of night, Jinsu explained that Bai Qi stayed in her room, so that she could respond to her at any time. I changed into a night suit and went out secretly.
After all, she is the master of the Night Gate, and it is her responsibility to protect the people below! What's more, this is already a matter of her own safety, and she really can't hang it high.
According to the information provided by Qingfeng, the missing people are all directly related to the dark pile. Judging from this point, most of the dark piles are at the bottom.
Jin Su first went to the Yongkang Tea House, which was often active in the dark pile, just in case, she didn't dare to get too close, just watched from a distance and quietly. Her instincts told her that it was not as peaceful as it seemed.
She was on a rooftop, and everything was hidden in the night except for a pair of shining eyes. It wasn't until the fourth watch day later that she didn't find anything abnormal, and she returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
For two or three days in a row, it was like this.
On the fourth day, Jin Suxian secretly observed for a while, and found that there was no movement as in the previous two days. So, she decided not to wait for the rabbit anymore.
She flew off the roof, and when she reached the door of the tea house, he followed the example of an ordinary killer and left a code on the corner opposite the tea house. This is the usual contact method of the killers of their Dark Night Gate, and in the past, if they wanted to contact the Dark Stake, it was in this way.
She believes that the person who catches the secret stake must also understand this code. Then, if they want to arrest her, they will definitely respond to her and lead her into the urn.
After making the code, Jinsu didn't stay for a long time and was ready to go home early.
But when she was about to arrive at the Prime Minister's Mansion, she suddenly felt that someone seemed to be following her behind her, far away, but she couldn't escape her keen hearing.
At this time, she quickened her pace, and as soon as she slipped through the smoke, she passed by the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She ducked into a dark alley and watched with bated breath.
After a while, sure enough, two figures chased after them, and found that there was no trace of her, and they were looking around!
Jinsu Cat was in the corner and found the two people chasing her, one of whom was particularly familiar. It wasn't until the man turned to face her that she saw clearly that this person was the secret guard βββ Kong Qing beside Feng Yao!
It turned out that Kong Qing had been staying in Kyoto City, and it turned out that he had captured the dark pile and the other two men! I thought he went to Shanxi one step ahead......
Jin Su was thinking quickly, but Kong Qing was vigilantly holding the sword, and she slowly approached. Rather than waiting to be cornered, it is better to strike first.
said that it was too late, and Jin Su shook his hands, and several silver needles flew out in unison.
Kong Qing lifted the sword in his hand and swung it a few times, only to hear a few "clanging" sounds. Jin Su knew that Kong Qing was extraordinary, and he also knew that he was definitely not his opponent, and a few silver needles would not cause him any harm at all.
She just took this opportunity to take the opportunity to slip away, although the Prime Minister's Mansion was close at hand, but she couldn't go in at this time.
Before he could run far, Kong Qing and another person immediately chased after him.
She also wanted to speed up and leave, but unexpectedly, Kong Qing immediately ran in front of her, and just like that, she was caught in front of her.
In this way, she can only face the enemy head-on.
The other person took the lead, and Kong Qing held the sword and watched from the sidelines.
Although Jin Su said that he was bare-handed, he was also a practitioner after all, with a light body, and he was always able to dodge every attack very skillfully.
About a dozen or so were five or six rounds bigger, and finally Jinsu seized the opportunity and fired a hidden weapon at that person!
The distance was too close, and it was too late to dodge when he found it, so the man had to take a hard shot. Jinsu's secret weapon is mostly coated with mandala juice, so that the person who is hit by her secret weapon will slowly slow down, even if he pulls out the secret weapon, he can have this effect.
After that person was hit by the hidden weapon, he was going to continue to fight with her, but at this time, Kong Qingfei came over, and a sword was about to hit her vital point!
Kong Qing's shot was fast and accurate, she couldn't dodge, let alone find an opportunity to launch a hidden weapon, and after only two rounds of effort, she was already out of breath.
In desperation, she had to take out the *** on her waist, throw it on the ground, and then quickly escaped.
However, Kong Qing still chased after her, and she was ruthless, and it seemed that she didn't intend to leave her alive. Jinsu couldn't dodge it, and the empty blue sword slashed over her shoulder, not only injuring her, but also removing the black scarf from her face.
She stepped back a few steps and covered her injured right shoulder.
At this time, Kong Qing, who had the upper hand, did not take advantage of the victory to chase after her, and killed her with a sword, but stared at her a little stunned, not knowing if he recognized her.
Jinsu took this opportunity to throw another *** and flew away.
After running for a while, and finding that Kong Qing and the others were not chasing, Jinsu stopped on a roof to catch his breath and examined the wound. The blood flowing from his shoulders had soaked his clothes, but fortunately it was a black night coat, and he couldn't see it at all.
Before she could do anything, she found two people flying towards her in the distance, and in a hurry, she had to quietly turn over and get off the roof and enter the courtyard of the house that I don't know who it was.
In this unfamiliar courtyard, no room could be entered, so she had to choose behind a flower, leaning against the stone, and resting for a while.
The late autumn night was getting colder and colder, and she was injured again, so she shivered from the cold.
She took out the pills to stop the bleeding and took three or five pills.
At this moment, the light in the room directly opposite her suddenly turned on, and she was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe.
Through the window, the shadow of a man could be seen walking up and down the room, and then the door opened. Although it was bright inside, the location of Jinsu was even more invisible.
Then the man blew out the light, closed the door, and left.
The courtyard returned to the tranquility just now, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of orchids, and Jin Su felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and gradually, he fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she was already lying on the soft bed, and the quilt on her body still exuded a faint scent of orchids. If it weren't for the pain in her shoulder, she would even think that everything just now was a dream.
"Are you awake?"
A warm and soft voice came, and then I saw Prince Oak with a smile like a spring light on his face.
"King, Lord~"
"Don't move, don't move," Prince Oak walked to Jinsu's bed with quicker steps, and raised his hand, signaling that she didn't have to be formal.
"Why did you faint in my house? Still wounded? β
"I ......"
It turned out that this was the palace of Prince Oak, so was Prince Oak who saved her? After hesitating for a long time, Jinsu didn't say anything.
Instead, he asked, "Lord Wang, how long have I been asleep?" β
"Well, it's been almost a day, and it's just past the time of the Shen," said Prince Oak lightly.
"Huh?"
That's over, Bai Qi is still in Hanlian Courtyard, isn't he going to die in a hurry. Thinking of this, Jin Su was about to get up, and the moment she lifted the quilt with one hand, she found that all the clothes on her body had been changed, and they had been replaced by ordinary daughter clothes, and a trace of surprise swept through her heart.
Seeing that she was struggling to get up, the prince reached out to help her, and admonished, "Be careful, you still have a wound on your shoulder!" β
"Courtiers, thank you for saving the prince!" Jinsu got out of bed and gave Prince Oak a solemn salute.
"Alright, I've long regarded you as a friend, so there's no need for so much courtesy, get up."
Prince Oak said, raising his hand.
Jin Su still knelt down and didn't get up, and shouted, "Lord, the courtier has a reluctant request, I hope the prince can agree." β
"Well, tell me about it."
"Can the prince pretend that he has never seen a courtier today?"
Prince Oak thought about it for a moment before agreeing, "Good! β
"Buckle," there was a knock on the door.
Prince Oak immediately made a silent gesture and shouted outside the door, "What's the matter?" β
"Lord Wang, the ginseng soup you asked for is ready," a mother-in-law replied.
Prince Oak hurriedly helped Jinsu up, motioned for her to hide behind the bed, and sat on the edge of the bed, pretending to have just gotten up, and then he said, "Okay, come in." β
The mother-in-law came in with the ginseng soup and put it on the table, and instructed, "Lord, the ginseng soup must be drunk while it is hot." β
Prince Oak nodded, "Well, I know, you can go down." β
Jin Su hid in the dark and could see clearly, the woman, from the time she came in to the time she went out, her eyes only glanced at Prince Quercus. Plain eyes, as if they didn't know she was in the room.
Prince Oak got up and went to the door, and when he was sure that his mother-in-law was far away, he beckoned Jin Su to come out, and stepped forward with ginseng soup and handed it to Jin Su, "Drink it quickly, you heard it just now, you have to drink it while it's hot." β
Jin Su hesitated a little, and the oak dynasty stirred the soup spoon twice, jokingly, "It's better to let this king feed you!" β
"No, no, no, no," Jin Su quickly took the ginseng soup, blew it lightly, and drank it clean.
Seeing this, Prince Oak showed a satisfied smile like an old father.
"Lord Wangβ"
Before Jin Su could say anything, the oak dynasty raised his hand, "Don't worry, I personally brought you in, no one has seen you in this mansion." β
"Thank you, Lord Wang," Jin Su bowed.
"All right, so many vulgar rites," Prince Oak glanced at her with disgust, and then took out his veil and put it on.
Jin Su subconsciously took a step back.
"What, don't you want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"Yes," Jinsu nodded.
"If you want to, just wear a veil obediently, otherwise how will you get out?"
As she spoke, Prince Oak gently put the veil on for her, "Alright, don't say anything, just follow me." β
"Yes," Jinsu replied with a nod.
So, he obediently followed Prince Oak, walked through the palace in a grand manner, and went out from the main gate.
Along the way, even if he met the people in the house, Prince Oak was silent, and walked naturally and generously, unlike Jinsu, who kept his head down as if he was a thief.
Walking to a crowded place in the market, Prince Oak deliberately slowed down his pace and whispered, "You can go back to your house by yourself in a while, anyway, it is inconvenient for this king to send him off." β
"Hmm!"
