Chapter 317: The Hotel is in Distress
Jack has been hiding in the dense forest and secretly admiring the goddess in his mind, fascinated and never tired of looking at it, until Xia Xue took a bath and put on clothes, covered with a wide robe, and put on a person. The leather mask and Qiu Ju continued to march towards the depths of Luo Xiao Mountain's valley before he came to his senses, he took a deep breath and calmed his beating heart, "I can't let the goddess find out." Jack waited for the two of them to walk for a while before he slowly followed......
Xia Xue and Qiu Ju explored the valley of Luoxiao Mountain for more than an hour, and finally found the legendary broken intestine grass on the gorge wall with high humidity and high soil sweat, Xia Xue was overjoyed, took many photos with her mobile phone, and also collected some specimens, and then made a mark nearby, Xia Xue has been drawing a road map when she enters the valley of Luoxiao Mountain, she has marked the road map, and she can let the researchers of Angel Pharmaceutical Company to conduct detailed scientific research and artificial cultivation when she goes back in the future. Broken intestine grass has a high medicinal value, can attack poison and pull out poison, disperse stasis and relieve pain, kill insects and relieve itching, skin eczema, tinea corporis, athlete's foot, rheumatoid arthritis, boils, leprosy, cancer, etc. Due to its scarcity in number, it is very precious.
The scientific expedition task was completed, and Xia Xue looked at the sky and it was not too early, so she and Qiu Ju returned to the hotel in the town on Zhongyuan Road in the valley to rest.
After a day of traveling, both of them were a little tired, and went to bed early after dinner. In the middle of the night, a faint smoke quietly entered the guest room where Xia Xue and Qiu Ju were resting through the crack in the door, and Qiu Ju slept very dead and didn't notice it. But Xia Xue, who had sharp instincts, immediately woke up, and she realized that it was a poisonous smoke that would make people weak and unconscious. Hurriedly took out the antidote she was carrying and swallowed it, Xia Xue just took off the wide robe outside and took off the person on her face when she slept in the guest room. Leather masks, jackets, bulletproof underwear, etc. have not been taken off, and sleeping with clothes is a habit that Xia Xue developed when she traveled outdoors, just to deal with all kinds of accidents that happened with her. She now quietly got up and picked up the backpack that was lying next to the bed, put on her shoes, and prepared to get out of bed and attack the enemy who was unleashing poisonous smoke outside the door. But when she was about to get out of bed, the strength of the poison had already attacked, and she suddenly felt weak all over her body, her brain was dizzy, and she fell headlong on the bed, Xia Xue knew that it would take at least half an hour for the antidote to work, and she couldn't help but be secretly anxious.
The whole body is getting weaker and weaker, the brain consciousness is getting more and more blurred, and Xia Xue saw a fire flashing outside the window, and then choking smoke poured into the crack in the window, she secretly screamed that it was not good, it seems that when someone wanted to release the poisonous smoke to stun herself, she also wanted to set fire to her and Qiu Ju, it was really vicious, Xia Xue desperately wanted to struggle, but after struggling several times or failed, Xia Xue felt a deep sense of powerlessness and helplessness for the first time.
Seeing that the fire outside was getting bigger and bigger, and the smoke in the house was getting bigger and bigger, and the fire outside was scorching the air in the house. Xia Xue heard someone shouting outside: "It's on fire, put out the fire quickly!" Then she heard a scream, and then there was no movement, Xia Xue understood that the person who shouted for fire must have been killed by the enemy who wanted to burn him, it seems that most of the residents of this town have been poisoned, "This group of damned enemies is really hateful, if I can get out alive, they must not die well!" "It's a pity that the antidote can't work yet, I have been poisoned too deeply, I don't have any strength in my body, my limbs don't obey the call, and I can't even get up.
At the moment of crisis, I only heard a loud "bang", the door of the guest room was kicked open, and a tall and fit man rushed in, he quickly looked around the room, flew to Xia Xue's bed, and generally carried Xia Xue up, and then rushed to Qiu Ju's bed with another lunge, lifted Qiu Ju like a chicken and clamped it under his armpit, and then rushed out of the guest room like lightning. It was all done in just a few seconds, and the speed was amazing.
The tall and athletic man resisted the summer snow and held Qiu Ju, rushed out of the blazing hotel, and ran all the way to the outside of the town. Although Xia Xue and Qiu Ju are light, their combined weight is nearly two hundred pounds, but this man runs like a fly, and he is really strong.
The tall and muscular man led the two of them for seven or eight minutes until they came to a big tree, where he hid them behind a big tree, then took out a short crossbow from his backpack and hid himself behind a large rock nearby. Although her body was still weak, as soon as the cold night breeze blew, Xia Xue's consciousness was already a little sober, and she saw through the hazy moonlight that the man who saved herself and Qiu Ju turned out to be the sexy and healthy young mixed-race man she saw in the restaurant the day before yesterday. "Why did he save himself and Qiu Ju? How did he not be poisoned by the gangsters? Xia Xue was full of suspicions.
It was Jack who saved Xia Xue and Qiu Ju, he saw his accomplice release poisonous smoke into Xia Xue's room, he knew that this poisonous smoke would only make people weak and unconscious, but it would not be fatal, so he only watched from the sidelines. Unexpectedly, they actually set fire to the goddess's guest room, Jack finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he came to the rescue, he knew that hindering the assassination target was a serious act of betraying the ghost organization, and the portal would be cleaned up by other accomplices. Anyway, in order to save the perfect goddess in his mind from harm, Jack can't care about anything now, although he knows that his behavior is a taboo of the ghost organization, but in order to protect the goddess, he can only let it go.
Just as Jack was hiding, he heard a dense and rapid footsteps in the direction of the town, and fifteen masked men chased after him with weapons. Jack knew that they were here to hunt down himself and the goddess, and he no longer showed mercy, now that he has turned against him, let's fight to the death, anyway, there is no affection between the killer members of the ghost organization, they are all a group of ruthless killing machines.
At a distance of a hundred meters from Jack, Jack struck first, using a short crossbow to attack, and the sudden attack caught the chasing killers off guard, and three killers screamed and fell to the ground. Although Jack shot quickly, these killers were not vegetarians, and they acted quickly, and they had rushed to Jack in the blink of an eye, and various weapons such as knives, swords, axes, hook claws, and chain maces beckoned to Jack together, and Jack hurriedly threw away the short crossbow, pulled out the short knife and fought hard.
As the top gold medal killer in the ghost organization, Jack is obviously more powerful than these peers, Jack's knife technique is very simple, there are no tricks, but it is very powerful and vicious, each knife makes a sharp knife whistling sound, and the knife is deadly. After a while, three killers had already fallen to the ground screaming.
A stout killer suddenly aimed at someone hiding behind the tree, so he left Jack and ran towards the tree, Jack saw that the goddess was in danger, and quickly dodged to avoid the attacks of several killers, chased after him, pulled out the flying knife on his waist and stabbed the stout killer to the ground. However, because of distraction, he was slashed in the back by a tall and thin killer behind him, and blood gushed out. Jack roared, turned around and slashed off the head of the tall and thin killer, blood spurted out of his neck like a fountain, splashing several killers nearby, the killers couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and the attack slowed down slightly. At this time, several more killers also saw that there were people hiding behind the tree, and they saw that Jack had been stopping them from approaching the tree, and it was estimated that what was hidden behind the tree might be their assassination target, the eldest grandson queen. So four men were left to entangle Jack, and the other three ran to the tree to assassinate the ultimate goal of their mission.
As soon as Jack saw that the goddess's hiding place was exposed, and three more killers pounced on the goddess, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and he didn't care about the four killers who besieged him, and also threw himself towards the big tree, and at the same time pulled out a flying knife from his waist and threw it at the one of the three killers who ran at the front, and with a scream, the murderer who ran at the front fell to the ground. This distraction, accidentally hit a flying claw on the calf, there were several blood holes on the board, blood gushing, Jack reflexively lowered his waist and cut off the flying claw with a knife, and cut off the arm of the guy with the flying claw with a knife, and screamed like a pig, the guy held the broken arm and retreated. Jack continued to run towards the tree, not wanting a heart-piercing pain in his calf, and the big leg didn't seem to listen to the call, and he stumbled to the ground, and the short knife flew out of his hand.
When the remaining five killers saw that Jack had fallen and his weapons had been taken off, they were overjoyed, and they rushed over with their swords and slashed at Jack, eager to chop the traitor into meat sauce.
Seeing that Jack's life was on the verge of a moment, when he heard five soft sounds of "puff puff puff", the five killers collapsed to the ground almost at the same time.
It turned out that after such a long time, Xia Xue's antidote had already played a role, although it had not completely lifted the toxicity on her body, but her strength had recovered somewhat, Xia Xue saw that Jack's life was hanging by a thread, and mustered up all her strength to pull out her drunken pistol and shoot quickly at the five killers, fortunately, the distance was not far, they were all shot and fell to the ground, Xia Xue aimed at the stunned killer with a broken arm, fired a shot, and he also fell to the ground.
The thrilling fight, the shock of the rest of his life, and the excessive blood loss, Jack's eyes went black and he fainted. Xia Xue looked at the corpses all over the ground and the unconscious Jack and the killers who were hit by the drunken bullets, and muttered, "It seems that the trip is going to end early!" Slowly took out the flare gun from her backpack and fired a red flare into the sky, the bright red and dazzling red flare was particularly dazzling in the night sky, and after a while, Xia Xue heard the sound of dense horses' hooves in the distance, and she knew that reinforcements were coming......
When Jack woke up from his coma, he found himself lying in a hospital bed with no one in the room. He swept his surroundings out of the corner of his eye, and felt that the room he was in should be a relatively high-end medical room, because he saw that there was a separate bathroom built next to the door, and the room was also very clean, and there were goose-yellow curtains hanging on the windows. He moved, and there was a sharp pain in his back, and he remembered that he had a knife wound on his back, and he shrunk his leg, and there was also a piercing pain in his left calf, and he looked at the injured left calf and found that it had been well bandaged. His upper body was naked, and the wound on his back had been bandaged, and the bandage had been wrapped around his back to his chest. "Ha, it seems that I am not dead, it is good to be alive!" Jack grinned.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Xia Xue, dressed in a navy blue jacket, walked in elegantly, followed by two nurses. Xia Xue doesn't wear anyone anymore now. The leather mask, the face without powder is fresh and beautiful, and the beautiful face has a gentle smile.
"You're awake, are you feeling better?" Xia Xue stood in front of the hospital bed and asked Jack with concern.
As soon as Jack saw Xia Xue, who was fairy-looking, his heart beat wildly, his lips were a little dry, his whole body was hot, and he suddenly felt a tingle in the wound, and he nodded gratefully, "Fairy, thank you for saving me!" Don't worry, I'm in great health, and this little hurt is a little meaning. "You must show your strength in front of the lover of your dreams.
"I also want to thank you for saving me!" Xia Xue said sincerely.
Xia Xue asked two nurses to change Jack's medicine, and Jack was really strong and didn't say a word.
"Thank you, please go out for a while, I have something to say to the fairy."
The two nurses couldn't help but laugh when they heard Jack keep calling the eldest grandson queen fairy, Xia Xue asked the two nurses to go out first for the time being, and then she closed the door and sat on the side of the bed.
Xia Xue stared at Jack with a pair of beautiful big eyes, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”
"Fairy, what's your name?"
"My name is Changsun Xue, and I am the empress of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin."
"Ahh Jack glared in surprise, "You're the eldest grandson queen?" How old are you? ”
Xia Xue couldn't help laughing out loud when she saw Jack's stunned appearance, and she deliberately said word by word: "I'm 70 years old this year." ”
"Oh my God!" Jack's mouth opened wide in surprise, and his jaw almost dropped. "Did Her Majesty take some elixir? How do you look only in your twenties? ”
"There is no elixir, I was born like this." Xia Xue said with a smile. A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Jack: "You now know my true identity, so can you tell me your true identity?" ”
Jack was silent for a while, and then seemed to have made a lot of determination, stiffened his neck and said: "My name is Jack, I am the gold medal killer of the ghost organization, and the purpose of coming to Datang this time is to assassinate you!" ”
Xia Xue didn't panic at all, and asked calmly, "Then why didn't you take the opportunity to kill me that night, but sacrificed your life to save me?" ”
Jack hesitated for a moment and confessed, "Because I'm in love with you, I want to protect you?" ”
Xia Xue was a little surprised: "We don't know each other, I wear such an ugly person. Leather Mask, how did you fall in love with me? ”
Jack Jun's face couldn't help but turn red, and he stammered, "Because I peeked at you taking a bath and was conquered by your perfection, I fell in love with you!" ”
"Ahh Even if Xia Xue comes from the future and is open-minded, when she hears that she is naked in the shower and being peeped at, she can't help but blush and her face is hot.
Xia Xue regretted that she was a little careless, thinking that the depths of Luoxiao Mountain were inaccessible and there should be no one, how could she have thought that she would be peeped at. Alas, it was too careless, but fortunately Jack was just a voyeur, and if he had assassinated himself at that time, wouldn't it be very dangerous for him, and it seemed that he could not be so careless in the future.
Fortunately, Xia Xue is from the future after all, and she is more open-minded, she knows that Westerners speak more bluntly, in fact, she also likes the other party to speak more bluntly, which can improve communication efficiency and is not easy to misunderstand. So he forcibly suppressed his feelings of shame and asked, "Then what are your plans in the future?" ”
This time Jack was silent for a long time, yes, what will he do in the future? I've betrayed the Order, and fifteen of my accomplices that night have killed themselves, indicating that they've removed themselves from the Ghost Order. Killers are ruthless, and Jack understands. However, he had made so much money for the organization and sold so many lives, and he said that he would abandon it, and Jack couldn't help but feel a chill and sadness when he thought of it. I'm a killer, I can only kill people, I don't know what else to do in the future? And he is free and loose by nature, his private life is rotten, he doesn't like discipline, and he resolutely refuses to let him be a soldier, bodyguard or policeman or something.
