Chapter 410: Returning the Gift to the Other Body [Second Update]
Li Tianlan looked ahead, his face was slightly suspicious, obviously he didn't find anything.
Tang Ning knew that someone was hiding there, not because he was more powerful than Li Tianlan and had more keen senses, but because from a certain moment just now, the mad Gu in his sleeve began to be restless, and the Ice Silkworm Gu also began to move frequently.
The identity of the person who can make Gu worms make such an abnormal movement and hide in the shadows is already very clear.
There was no movement in that direction, Tang Ning looked over and asked, "The second prince is dead, what else do you want to do?" ”
His voice fell for a long time before a person walked out from behind the tree more than ten feet away.
It was a figure wearing a hat, and the figure should be a woman, the man took off the hat, looked at Tang Ning, and asked, "How did you find me, and how do you know it's me?" ”
Under the cloak is a face that Tang Ning is not familiar with, the middle-aged woman's face is sallow, even a little dark, and there seems to be something smeared on her face, although it is not the face of the middle-aged woman next to the second prince, but she has indirectly admitted her identity just now, it seems so, it should have gone through some disguise.
As the only fish that slipped through the net among the second prince and others, her wanted notices have spread all over the city, and it is not easy to escape from the city without changing her appearance.
Tang Ning didn't answer her question, took two steps forward, and said, "The second prince has been burned to ashes, and you still don't give up?" ”
The middle-aged woman said calmly: "It's just a loser, and if you die, you will die." ”
It's not the first time that Tang Ning has experienced the cruelty of this woman, his apprentice said that he would leave it behind, and the master who followed him died, and he turned his face ruthlessly in a blink of an eye, this woman was more poisonous than the Gu she raised.
Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "You are also Han, why do you want to do things for them?" ”
"You're too wide."
The middle-aged woman said coldly, walked slowly to this side, looked at Li Tianlan, and said lightly: "I didn't expect that the dignified princess of Chu State would surrender her identity and fall in love with a small official ...... Chen State."
Love has no identity, princes will fall in love with Cinderella, why can't princesses like poor boys?
What's more, he is not poor, he likes the feeling of being alone, how can this kind of middle-aged and elderly woman who has not experienced feelings understand.
Tang Ning saw her getting closer and closer, clasped his hands, looked at her and asked, "Do you want to wait until you get closer to release the Gu worms?" ”
The middle-aged woman paused, looked at him, and said coldly: "Sure enough, it's you, and you solved all their Gu poisons?" ”
Tang Ning was noncommittal, and the middle-aged woman asked again: "The Gu technique was lost more than ten years ago, and it is impossible for it to appear in the Chen Kingdom, who taught your Gu technique?" ”
Tang Ning glanced at her and asked, "Are you a hundred thousand why?" ”
"If you don't say it now, you'll say it later." The middle-aged woman said in a cold voice, flicked her sleeves, and several black lights shot out from her sleeves, heading straight for Tang Ning and Li Tianlan.
Brush!
A silver match slashed in front of Tang Ning's eyes, Li Tianlan stood with a sword, and several Gu worms released by the middle-aged woman were cut into several pieces by him, and they kept writhing on the ground.
The middle-aged woman's face remained unchanged, and she said lightly: "You think this is the end?" ”
Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "You mean to say that even if the Silver Thread Snake Gu is cut off, it can still survive and parasitize in the host's body, right?" ”
The middle-aged woman's complexion changed for the first time, this was the characteristic of the silver snake Gu worm, since he knew this, why did he still stand in place, not dodging or dodging?
As if thinking of something, her gaze immediately looked to the ground.
I saw that the few Gu worms that were cut off just now did not burrow into the bodies of those two people as she expected, but kept squirming under their feet, if you observe them carefully, you can see that they are not wriggling, but trembling, or surrendering.
She had been practicing Gu art for many years, and of course she knew why this was happening.
"You have an Ice Silkworm Gu on you!" The middle-aged woman's face changed drastically, and she asked sharply: "It was she who taught you the Gu technique, what is the relationship between you and her, the surname Bai even gave you the Ice Silkworm Gu!" ”
"What is the ...... surnamed Bai" Tang Ning glanced at her, most of his Gu techniques originated from Su Mei, and the Ice Silkworm Gu was also lent to him by her, and she also told him to take care of it, does this woman have anything to do with Su Mei, and who is the surname Bai?
The middle-aged woman's emotions suddenly became excited, she drew her sword and pointed at Tang Ning, and said loudly: "Say, who taught you your Gu technique?" ”
Boom!
After a sound of gold and iron, Li Tianlan was already standing in front of Tang Ning.
The two swords collided, and after the middle-aged woman took a few steps back, she snorted coldly and bullied forward again.
Tang Ning was originally a little worried about Li Tianlan, but when he saw that she was fighting with this middle-aged woman and did not fall behind at all, he was relieved.
With him by her side, this middle-aged woman's Gu art can't play a big role, people who are proficient in Gu art are generally not very skilled in martial arts, although this middle-aged woman is also a master, but after more than ten moves, she has been completely suppressed by Li Tianlan.
At this time, there was already movement outside the forest.
A group of people rushed into the forest from the official road, the middle-aged woman shook off Li Tianlan, came straight to Tang Ning, grabbed his shoulder, Tang Ning raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, flipped the trend, and the middle-aged woman's blow missed.
Li Tianlan had already walked over, the middle-aged woman glanced at Tang Ning unwillingly, and flew towards the deeper forest, but as soon as she flew a few feet away, her body trembled and fell to the ground.
Xu Ling walked over quickly and asked, "Princess, are you okay?" ”
Li Tianlan shook his head and said, "It's okay." ”
Tang Ning walked up to the middle-aged woman and asked, "How is it, the taste of poisoning is not pleasant, right?" ”
The middle-aged woman relied on her ability to use poison and Gu to do mischief, and Tang Ning was just treating her in the same way as a person.
This trip to Chu is a difficult task and full of dangers, and the things he uses to press the bottom of the box are not one or two, the old beggar's poison technique and Su Mei's Gu technique are not inherited from the same line, and in some cases, poison is much better than Gu art.
Tang Ning stood up, looked at Li Tianlan, and said, "Leave this person to me to deal with." ”
This middle-aged woman obviously has something to do with Su Mei, Tang Ning plans to escort her back to ask, not to mention, she has shot at him three times and twice, and it is difficult to get out of his evil anger if she doesn't give her some color along the way.
Li Tianlan looked at him and advised, "Be careful." ”
Tang Ning said: "Don't worry, within twelve hours, she won't be able to lift any strength." ”
Xu Ling came over with a team of people, and even if the two wanted to stay warm for a while, they had no chance.
On the official road, King Zhou jumped down from the carriage, looked at the middle-aged woman who was tied up, and said in surprise: "Lord Tang, this is ......"
"This is the woman who ran away from the second prince." Tang Ning looked at King Zhou and explained, "The princess and I are going to catch the assassins. ”
King Zhou's gaze stayed on his face for a moment, especially on his lips for a long time, and said with a smile: "This woman is extremely evil, and it is simply good to be caught." ”
Xu Ling walked over, knelt on one knee, and arched his hand: "Lord Tang's life-saving grace, Xu is unforgettable, if there is a chance in the future, he will definitely repay him." ”
Several generals who were favored by him and relieved the Gu poison also stepped forward to thank them.
Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "It's all your own people, you don't have to be so polite, get up, get up......"
Li Tianlan walked over, and everyone hurriedly retreated.
She looked up at Downing and said, "We're leaving." ”
Tang Ning nodded and said, "I'll wait for you." ”
Her gaze lingered on Tangning for a long time before she turned and got into the carriage.
"We're leaving!"
"Lord Tang, goodbye!"
……
The generals turned over and got on their horses, waved goodbye to Tang Ning, King Zhou poked his head out of the carriage, thought for a while, and said, "Brother Tang, you ......"
Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "What else is the matter with the prince?" ”
King Zhou pointed to his lips, looked at him, and said, "In case others misunderstand, when Brother Tang goes back, let's wipe the lip grease on his mouth first......"
