Chapter 693: Counter-killing

In the wing room, Yan Wushuang took a wet towel to wipe Zhan Ge's face carefully.

"It's okay, I'll wake up soon, you don't have to worry."

Phoenix handed her the medicine and carefully advised: "This is for him to eat when he wakes up, I have other things, if it is not too important, don't bother me."

"What's the matter?" Yan Wushuang put the medicine in a conspicuous position and asked suspiciously.

The phoenix hooked her lips and smiled, her eyes flashing with ill intentions: "That puppet is still in the side room, I want to study it, maybe I can find something interesting."

Yan Wushuang was stunned when she heard this, she was all focused on Zhan Ge, and she really ignored the puppet she brought back.

"Then be careful, and let us know if you have any news."

At this time, the phoenix didn't even bother to answer, and waved his hand and couldn't wait to walk towards the side room.

It had already been set up, and the idlers were not allowed to approach.

"It's inside, but there's been no movement."

The guard handed the prepared armor to Phoenix, and couldn't help but have some admiration in his heart, the puppet was disgusting to those of them who had seen blood, and Phoenix was not afraid at all.

"Hehe, it's okay, I have my own way, you guys go out first."

The guard nodded, and didn't go far with the people, guarding the outside of the courtyard, and they could rush in as soon as there was any movement.

The room was very dim, and in order to prevent others from leaking the news, all the windows on all four sides were covered with black cloths, and only a little light could be seen.

The phoenix stood in the doorway for a while, quickly adjusting to the dimness of the room, and the puppet was tied to the corner with five flowers, and its limbs were locked with thick chains, motionless.

She was also a little uneasy in her heart, picked up a porcelain cup on the table and smashed it at the puppet's feet, the puppet did not move, and the guards rushed over first.

"It's okay, don't come in, I'll call you if something happens." Phoenix didn't expect it to have such a big impact, and apologized guiltily.

Silence returned to the room, and the phoenix became a little bolder, moving forward little by little, staring at the puppet's thing with an angry eye, one foot behind it, ready to turn and run away at any moment.

But the puppet was still quiet, he was lying quietly on the ground, his hair was scattered, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

Phoenix took out the wooden stick he had prepared in advance and poked it carefully, but there was still no response.

She relaxed at this time, it stands to reason that the puppets basically have no thinking of their own, they only have the impulse of a beast, so if the stick can't poke him. That's really not moving.

Phoenix estimated that he squatted down from a safe distance, and looked at the surface of the puppet curiously: "Well, it's not stiff when it's dead, and it's still like a normal person, it looks like it's been dead for a long time, and it doesn't taste at all, it's really interesting,"

She had dealt with dead people a lot, and was most familiar with the behavior of corpses, but there was one question that made him difficult: "Why didn't he move, so I can't study any other information."

The puppet on the phoenix's side was not moving, but Zhenbeihou's study was brightly lit, and Zhenbeihou himself was even more irritable and walked back and forth in front of the window.

Lingchen half-squinted, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

"We need to improve quickly, and if we continue like this, our previous efforts will be in vain."

"Improvement requires soul rejuvenation grass, there are no herbs, how can you let me improve." Lingchen reacted a little at this time, his nose let out a cold snort, and his tone was also a little mocking.

"How not! Without the Soul Restoration Grass, you will definitely be able to improve with your abilities. Zhenbei Hou breathed heavily, and his voice was accentuated to cover up the weakness in his heart.

"Soul Rejuvenation Herb is an indispensable herb, if ......"

"You threaten me?" Zhenbei Hou interrupted him dangerously, and put one hand on the saber at his waist.

"Naturally I don't dare, I just hope that if Master Hou can have news of the Soul Restoration Grass, he can tell me as soon as possible."

Lingchen arched his hand and said, restraining the dissatisfaction in his eyes, Zhenbei Hou hoped that he could improve the method of controlling the puppet, but he didn't want to reveal the news of the Soul Restoration Grass, how could there be such a good thing in the world.

However, people had to bow their heads under the eaves, and the Hou of Zhenbei had heavy troops in hand, and he didn't have the strength to compete with him.

His attitude softened, and Zhenbei Hou's face softened slightly.

He said lightly: "Don't worry about this, as long as you can find it, I will definitely not hide it from you."

Lingchen didn't bother to listen to his nonsense here anymore, and bent down again to leave.

Zhan Ge woke up in good spirits, Yan Wushuang was still sleeping, and he didn't want to wake her up, so he got up and went to the court after cleaning up, and specially instructed his subordinates not to disturb her sleep.

Above the court, the arrogance of the Marquis of Zhenbei became more and more arrogant, and several proposals put forward by Zhan Ge were refuted by him, and even sneered.

"Does Zhenbei Hou have a better suggestion for the proposal?" In the end, the emperor couldn't get used to taking the initiative to speak, and the void placed on the dragon chair clenched into a fist, and his tone began to be displeased.

"Back to the emperor, although the minister does not have great talent, he can also listen to the loopholes in the proposal that the prince said, and ask if the prince really cares about the people."

Without waiting for the emperor to refute, the Marquis of Zhenbei continued: "As the king of a country, the emperor is the heavy responsibility of the whole country, and he must not destroy this century-old society because of his own selfish desires."

Everyone in the court gasped, is Zhenbei Hou dying? even openly pointed out that the emperor was wrong.

"Zhenbei Hou, is this weird?" The emperor's words revealed a murderous aura.

The Marquis of Zhenbei thought that he had destroyed the limelight of the war ge, so he naturally accepted it when he saw it, and made a guilty look.

"Naturally not, the emperor is wise and martial, and he will definitely not be able to do such a mediocre thing."

What he said was very skillful, if the emperor accepted Zhan Ge's proposal, then he would be mediocre, on the contrary, no matter what Zhan Ge said, the emperor would not be able to care.

It is not unmistakable.

The emperor had a headache and waved his hand: "Let's get here first today, let's disperse."

Originally, I wanted to leave Zhan Ge to talk in detail, but I was disrupted by the Marquis of Zhenbei, it must not work.

Zhan Ge's face was flat, and he didn't pay attention to what Zhenbei Hou said at all, Zhenbei Hou was proud at first, and when he saw that he didn't react at all, it was like a punch on cotton, and his good mood disappeared in an instant.

"Hmph, it's really shameless at all."

The ministers who passed by Zhenbeihou heard his words and bowed their heads and walked quickly, so as not to have anything to do with him, and arrogant people basically did not live long.

Zhan Ge returned to the palace, Yan Wushuang had been waiting for him in the study, and when he saw him, he immediately greeted him.

"How? Did he make any other moves today? ”

It was self-evident in her mouth that the Marquis of Zhenbei had to be careful with his every move now.

"He expects there to be a move soon, so it's better for us to be careful."

Zhan Ge told him what happened in the court today, and Yan Wushuang nodded when he heard this.

Zhenbei Hou used to be low-key, but now he is suddenly arrogant, which must be abnormal.

Yan Wushuang pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice: "In my opinion, it's better to ...... him directly."

didn't finish the rest of the words, Yan Wushuang made a move to wipe his neck, and now, in order to prevent the situation from continuing to worsen, he can only use this method.

"Okay, without further ado, I'll arrange someone now,"

Zhan Ge got up and left, Su Dark Guard was selected, and all of the secret guards were good players, just in case, he also deliberately sent a few more people.

Those people had to leave quickly, and Yan Wushuang and Zhan Ge were waiting anxiously.

Time passed, and she looked out the window from time to time, trying to see the figure back.

The longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for them, which means that the dark guard is more likely to be more than lucky this time.

"Look, they're back."

Yan Wu glanced out of the corner of his eyes, and saw that there were suddenly a few more figures in the courtyard, obviously those people sent out by Zhan Ge.

Zhan Ge and her immediately ran out, but before they could get close, a strong smell of blood came, Zhan Ge secretly screamed that something was wrong, and pulled Yan Wushuang back quickly, just to dodge the cold blade that slashed over.

"What's going on?" Yan Wushuang looked up in astonishment, these people are obviously Zhan Ge's people, how could they come and kill them.

"Look at their eyes, they've been controlled." Zhan Ge said in a deep voice while protecting Yan Wushuang and hiding in the house.

Yan Wushuang knew that he was a burden, and found that those people's eyes were blank, exactly the same as the puppet before, and he instantly understood.

In order not to drag Zhan Ge down, she hid in the house, and could only worry about watching Zhan Ge deal with these walking dead alone through the crack in the door.

The sound quickly attracted the guards, and with the cooperation of everyone, all the puppets were subdued.

Zhan Ge wiped the blood from his face and ordered all the puppets to be sent to Phoenix.

"The government strictly investigates, and if there is any suspicious person, arrest him immediately, and wait for me to go over to judge."

"Yes."

The situation on Yan Wushuang's side had just stabilized, and Qiu Ruo propped her hands on the windowsill and looked at the moon in the sky.

"I don't know how Qi Yan is now, when he will be able to come back." Qiu Ruo said distressedly, and there was a longing that could not be dissolved.

The pain of lovesickness was tormenting her, Qi Yan stayed in a place that she was not familiar with at all, she didn't know anything about the situation, she felt that she was going crazy soon, and she would never see Qi Yan's words again.

She just took a look, only at the gate of Zhenbei Hou, so that she could get close to Qi Yan, instead of sitting here waiting for news.

Qiu Ruo didn't hesitate at all, didn't change the clothes on his body, and ran in the direction of Zhenbeihou in the night.

She was still a little sensible, she didn't go to the front door, found the back door of the Hou Mansion, and put her ear to the door to try to hear something.

"I was able to catch a little mouse in the middle of the night, how do you say I want to punish you?"

A voice suddenly sounded overhead, Qiu Ruo was shocked, and quickly raised his head, crashing into Lingchen's smiling eyes.

"Tsk, look at this panicked look, what? Stealing everything to Zhenbei Hou? Lingchen didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain when he had nothing to do at night.

"I'm not, no, I'm just passing by." Qiu Ruo explained weakly, lowered her head and wanted to leave, how could Lingchen give her a chance, and with a wave of her hand, people would block her way.

"Either way, give me a ride."
