Chapter 49: Assassination
The sound of the tiger's roar is fierce and domineering, penetrating people's eardrums, Xiaocheng's internal strength is still shallow, so close to listening to the tiger's roar, he is exhausted for a while, his breathing is stagnant, cold sweat is direct, and he is struggling to support!
Zhou Huanchun was busy pinching his hand, and his luck instilled a part of his true qi in him.
Subsequently, the tiger also seemed to announce the ownership of the dead goat to the birds and beasts of the entire deep dark forest.
It paced the square steps, swaggered to the sheep's body, pressed the mutton with its sharp tiger claws, and opened its bloody mouth to bite it, and in a few moments, the tiger was about to devour the goat, which weighed about one hundred and thirty pounds.
Zhou Huanchun leaned over and squatted aside, his eyes were like electricity, and he whispered to everyone: "Xiaoyu has fed a certain dose of anesthesia powder to the goat, and the tiger has eaten the meat of the goat, I believe that the tiger already has a certain amount of anesthetic powder." β
"Then why doesn't the tiger fall?" Que Qing asked stupidly.
Zhou Huanchun really suspected that Que Qing visited the No. 12 barracks last night and brought everything over, but she didn't bring her brains over......
She couldn't help but complain: "Stupid! Did you see the goats fall? The amount of anesthetic powder contained in the goat's body is very small, and if the anesthetic is too much, the tiger may notice it, and we will not be able to lead the goat to the mountain......"
Zhou Huanchun continued: "This dose can't fascinate the tiger, so here's the pointββ"
"When the tiger has completely eaten the goat, we will throw the anesthetic bullet in our hand at the tiger!"
"When the anesthetic bomb touches the object quickly and violently, it emits a colorless gas that can paralyze the nerves in the tiger's brain and cause the tiger to hallucinate about death."
"However, you can only use a maximum of ten at a time, otherwise the tiger will die under the illusion due to too many hallucinogenic factors in the colorless gas!"
"Wouldn't that be nice? Soldiers are bloodless! Que Qing still didn't find the problem.
At this time, the tiger had devoured the goat, Zhou Huanchun and others reached out to throw the anesthetic bullet out, Que Qing saw that everyone threw the anesthetic bullet, and no longer entangled in whether to kill the tiger or catch the tiger, and threw the anesthetic bullet at the tiger......
After the tiger was bombed, its steps were vain, its blue eyes were full of starlight, its bloody mouth was opened, its terrible fangs were exposed, and it let out one roar after another, as if to warn the conspirators in the shadows - that is, Zhou Huanchun and others.
Now, after the roar, the tiger lost the majesty of Fang Cai, dragged its hanging tail, and left by itself, while Zhou Huanchun waved his arms.
"Everyone, keep up!"
Everyone followed the tiger through layers of broad-leaved dark forests......
This direction is β
Bridge!
The tiger shook off the small leaves that had rolled up on its body, relaxed its hind feet, propped its forefeet on the ground, and crouched beside the broken bridge, looking at the other side and wailing one after another.
Zhou Huanchun and the others looked at each other, completely puzzled, they used the grass pile to disguise, slowly approached the tiger, and after getting close to a certain distance, Zhou Huanchun and the others found that the tiger's amber eyes were actually flowing crystal water droplets, it was shedding tears?
Xiao Pu's eyebrows furrowed, and he pushed his eyes, thoughtfully.
Orange opened his mouth wide in disbelief, thinking that he had seen a fake tiger......
Only Xia Zhanshu behind Zhou Huanchun seemed to have an understanding, he exhaled slowly, his beard fluttered, and said in a deep voice: "This kind of roar from the tiger, the contempt has heard it before......"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes focused on Xia Zhanshu, hoping that he could explain the situation at this time.
"Before the contemptible man retired to the rivers and lakes, he saw a tiger that witnessed the death of its cub tiger, and at that time, the tiger made this kind of cry." Xia Zhan's writing was as black as iron, and he twisted his beard and said.
Xiao Cheng stroked his chest and said while panting, "Could it be that its cub tiger has just died?" β
"Maybe it's the hallucinogenic factor of the narcotic bomb that has taken effect! It reminded the tiger of its cub, and it looked across the river, which illustrated ......" Zhou Huanchun stared at his sword eyebrows, held his chin, and thought thoughtfully.
Que Qing couldn't wait to pat her on the shoulder, "Miss, you're in a hurry to kill me!" What does this mean? β
"First of all, this is just my guess, I thought, maybe it's coming from the other side!"
"From the other side? But β does it matter? β
"The most important thing is that the tiger can't fight yet, and it can't fight yet!"
Que Qing saw that the tiger was languishing and thought that this was the best time to become a hero who killed the tiger!
Zhou Huanchun doused Que Qing's burning blood with a basin of cold water, and she said plainly: "You tell me where the opposite area is first?" It seems that there is no ...... in the "Illustrated Chronicles of the True Castle"
Que Qing glanced at the canyon opposite, and then looked up at the acacia flowers flying on the opposite mountain, and had a clue.
He opened his lips and said, "On the other sideβ"
Before Que Qing finished speaking, the tiger next to the broken bridge suddenly went berserk, opened its bloody mouth, and roared to the sky, the ferocity was worse than when it first met!
Zhou Huanchun waved her hand and said solemnly to Que Qing next to her: "That's it!" Let's find a way to defeat the tiger first! β
Que Qing swallowed a spider's expression on her face, and glared: "What? The tiger didn't fight when it was sick, but now it's even more crazy and irritable, and it's going to go up and fight?! β
"Miss, where did you buy your narcotic bomb? In my opinion, it's useless, and I suspect that you've bought a fake medicine! β
Just when Que Qing was chattering, the ferocious tiger let out another heart-rending roar!
Xiao Cheng and Xiao Pu lacked internal strength, and they were hit by powerful sound waves, and they vomited out a mouthful of blood, and they were both gone!
Seeing this, Zhou Huanchun raised her hands violently and instilled true qi into the two.
The mysterious man in the bushes seized the gap at this time, and instantly sent a hidden weapon to Zhou Huanchun, the secret weapon was as fast as light, as fast as electricity, and went straight to Zhou Huanchun's heart!
At the same time, the branches in the woods behind Zhou Huanchun and the others swayed, and an unknown number of black-clothed people jumped out of the trees, like flying arrows, shooting into the ground, flying sand and dust, and the wind hid shadows!
In an instant, Zhou Huanchun and the others were surrounded by people in black!
In the past few days when Zhou Huanchun went to Feilin Garden, the general's mansion was also dull.
Zhou Jinmu's body has been asked to be examined, to determine the fatal injury, burial matters, everything is simple, Guo Zhixi cried in front of Zhou Jinmu's mourning hall for a day and a night, and finally returned to "Yuli Xuan" with the support of his subordinates unwillingly.
At the same time, a carriage made of white sycamore wood and bronze ancient wind chimes came in the dust, bringing a touch of exotic taste that was different from Bai Qin......
As soon as the sturdy coachman pulled the reins, the carriage stopped steadily beside the imposing stone lion at the entrance of the general's mansion......
From the car stepped down a gentleman wearing a narrow sleeve red scarf, wearing a silk carved turban, deep eye sockets, golden eyes, and a bloated figure, she briefly communicated with the servant who guarded the door, and the servant hurriedly invited the man into the mansion, while the coachman drove the carriage into the side door of the general's mansion and drove into the "Yuli Xuan".
β¦β¦
Guo Zhixi, who was in "Yu Li Xuan", held his forehead and said to Yu Lao listlessly: "Yu Lao is already old, so the task of delivering condolences should be handed over to the young people under his hands......
Yu Lao smiled kindly, and said slowly in a slightly frosty voice: "Is the princess disgusted with the old body and old bones, and it is not good to do things?" β
"You know I didn't mean that."
Yu Lao nodded and said: "The old body grew up watching the princess, and now, I can't always accompany the princess, but I should also contribute to the princess!" β
Guo Zhixun was quite moved, and lay down in Yu Lao's arms, as if she would pounce on Yu Lao and be coquettish when she couldn't eat cheese when she was a child.
Yu Lao's cloudy eyes couldn't help but reveal a touch of crystal.
After the two of them reminisced sadly, Yu Lao took the lead and said: "The king already knows everything, and he also regrets the death of Young Master Jinmu, he asked me to ask the princess, do you remember what you promised before leaving Wanlou?" β
Guo Zhi wiped her tears and said in a hoarse voice: "Remember, I promised my father that no matter what happens, I will cheer up!" β
"That's right! The princess is still at such a young age, as long as the princess cares, she will definitely have another son! β
As he spoke, Yu Lao took out a round box from his arms, and the lid of the box had the symbol of the Gu Clan's Thousand Leaf Insect.
A sharp light suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she said to Guo Zhixi: "This thing is the 'Twelve Pomegranate Fruit' specially customized by the king to the high-level Gu clan, and it will definitely help Princess Xi." β
"'Twelve pomegranate fruits'? What is it? Why had I never heard my father say it before? β
"'Twelve pomegranate fruits' is a new drug successfully developed by the Gu people this year, with the moon white pomegranate that bears fruit once every twelve years in the territory of the Gu tribe into the medicine, take it after intercourse, and after three days, you will definitely get pregnant."
"Is it really that amazing?" Guo Zhixi asked herself that she had seen countless rare treasures, but it was the first time she had heard of such a magical elixir......
Yu Lao took out an ivory comb and gently smoothed Guo Zhi's scattered hair, "How could the old body lie to Princess Xi?" β
Guo Zhixi's dim eyes drooped, and he said sadly: "Even if I can still have a son, he will no longer be Jin'er......"
"The old body knows that Princess Xi also has feelings for Young Master Jinmu, but people must and can only move forward, and those who have passed can only pass......"
Past?
No, not yet!
Zhou Huanchun and her comrades are not dead yet!
How can this matter be considered in the past!
The assassin sent by the 'Wind Hidden Shadow' to assassinate Zhou Huanchun should also go to Feilin Yuan now......
Guo Zhixi took a deep breath and said softly: "I will find a suitable time to use this elixir, Yu Lao don't worry." β
Yu Lao nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "Among the tributes brought this time, there are also a number of ordinary Gu clan medicines, the old body will not give them to the princess one by one, the method and type of use have been written on the silk paper attached inside, among which there are some poisonous medicines, the princess must be properly kept!" β
"Why is there poison?" Guo Zhixian asked.
"The king said that Young Master Jinmu is dead, if someone wants to bully the princess, how can the princess not have the ability to protect herself?"
"The princess is smart and clever, and she can judge the situation and use it!" Yu Lao patted Guo Zhixi's shoulder and said affirmatively.
Guo Zhixun immediately understood, his eyes showed a cold light, and his lips opened slightly: "Of course! β
"The old body hopes that Princess Xi can return to her former demeanor as soon as possible, so that I can leave with confidence!" Yu Lao closed his eyes and sighed, which contained a lot of sad emotions of parting.
Guo Zhixing nodded and said, "Okay, Old Yu, I promise you!" β
"Won't you stay for two days?"
"Wanlouguo has other things to do, and the old body will return soon." Yu Lao reluctantly refused.
Guo Zhixin smiled slightly, wanting to dilute the sadness of parting.
"Hey, I've been away from Wanlou for too long, I forgot that you are a workaholic, and I don't force you to stay, please say hello to my father and mother on my behalf, I don't know when I can go back to Wanlou to see ......"
Hearing Guo Zhixian's words, a trace of horror flashed in Yu Lao's eyes, and then disappeared......
And Guo Zhi was thinking about attacking the princess...... What a nostalgic title......
