Chapter Twenty-Four: There is no danger
Jing Ge covered his neck and coughed a few times, and spit out a few mouthfuls of blood. His originally pale face was faintly purple because he couldn't breathe, and Shangguan Junyue stepped forward to hold his arm, caress his back, and pulled him back for a distance.
Jing Ge exhaled, relaxed a little, and took the longbow in Shangguan Junyue's hand. Leaning against a tree, Shangguan Junyue still examined his injuries.
"It's a pretty bad injury." Shangguan Junyue was a little displeased and complained, "You are really not afraid of death." ”
"I'm afraid of death, so I'm not going to die." Jing Ge said with a smile showing his bloodshot teeth.
The old man who was sitting cross-legged on the ground struggling to resist the toxin thief eyebrows and rat eyes was a little strange, they didn t run away quickly, did they give up.
Suddenly, he thought of something and spread out his palm holding the pill. I saw that the snow-white pill slowly melted into a puddle of liquid in the palm of my hand and seeped into my body. The palm of the other hand that had pinched Jing Ge's neck also began to turn black.
Jing Ge was smearing poison on him when he pretended to struggle, and the pill thrown by Shangguan Junyue was an antidote, which was clearly another poison.
Jing Ge sensed that the old man was coming, and he knew that it was difficult to get close to him, so he yin the younger man first. When the old man catches himself in exchange for an antidote, he will take the opportunity to use the poison.
He didn't know what the old man's temperament was, whether he would directly kill himself and Shangguan Junyue and then take the antidote, it was really risky, so Shangguan Junyue would complain that he was not afraid of death.
He hadn't communicated with Shangguan Junyue before, but Shangguan Junyue saw Jing Ge's eyes when he raised his bow to shoot the man. He came over with a tacit understanding and quietly stuffed the poison to him when he was feeding him the pills.
And replaced him with a poison pill, so as to prevent the old man from finding out that he was poisoned and killed Jing Ge madly before he died, even Jing Ge couldn't help but be a little frightened: This woman is really terrifying, cold-blooded and ruthless, and she is very intelligent, fortunately she is an accomplice with me.
"You..." his face began to redden, and gradually became top-heavy, Jing Ge and Yue'er became confused in his eyes.
Jing Ge cautiously stared at him and retreated, beware of his dying counterattack. Yue'er, who was protected by Jing Ge, hid in her sleeve with her jade fingers silently buttoned up two extremely thin gold needles.
In fact, a six-rank master like him still has the power to fight even if he has two kinds of poison in his body. It's just that the speed reaction has become slower, and if he makes a move now, there is probably still some chance to kill Jing Ge.
"Although your cultivation is profound, but you are too stupid, no wonder it will fall into the hands of the Fifth Division." Jing Ge said that when an honest person ran into him and Yue'er, he naturally couldn't get any benefits.
He hesitated for a moment, sighed, and two lines of cloudy tears slowly ran down his dry cheeks. He stood there with his eyes closed, not making another move, not even deliberately exercising to defend against the toxins raging in his body, allowing it to erode.
At this moment, his mood cannot be described in words, tangled and contradictory. He admires Generalissimo Jingqing, if he is not forced to do anything to Jing Shuai's descendants.
I've lived so long in this life, and I'm dead when I'm dead, but I'm so sorry for that poor girl, and I don't know how the Fifth Division will torture her after her death.
Jing Ge narrowed his eyes slightly, and a strange light flashed in his pupils. The appearance is still calm and quiet, even if he has just experienced life and death, he has not changed in the slightest. He slowly raised his longbow and pointed at the old man.
Shangguan Junyue knew that he had murderous intent at this moment, and when he squinted his eyes slightly, the killing opportunity had already started.
Shout!
The arrow was not fired at him as the old man thought, but at the dense branches of a tree not far away.
A figure fell from the tree, and Jing Ge's arrow stuck in his chest, shooting him down.
However, he did not die under this arrow. But he was already dead, and Jing Ge just shot the corpse down.
Jing Ge can sense the aura of the masters, provided that those masters do not deliberately hide their breath.
This person is extremely well hidden, Jing Ge guessed that someone from the Fifth Division was watching the two of them, and he had been sensing carefully, but he found nothing. Until just now, this treetop was exposed to an extremely violent aura, and it disappeared in an instant.
Someone attacked and killed him, and he unconsciously burst out of his breath at the moment of death. He was dressed in the black uniform of the Fifth Division, with a huge hole in his neck, and blood gushing out, apparently only a moment dead.
Jing Ge was surprised that he only sensed this breath, and the breath of the other person who attacked him did not leak out at all when he moved, making it impossible to perceive.
The old man's eyes widened when he opened his eyes and saw the corpse.
"This is the man who asked you to kill me?" Jing Ge asked.
The old man nodded, and fell to the ground, the toxins preventing him from standing.
"Warden." Another person from the Fifth Division, who was hiding somewhere, exclaimed in surprise and appeared. Jing Ge followed the prestige in the past, he was similar to the old man in the six-grade realm, but he was much younger.
He didn't understand why the warden was dead, and someone could assassinate him so close to him without realizing it.
That man can kill the warden, and of course he can kill me. He finally figured this out, and hurriedly turned around to escape from here.
It was already late, he had just turned around, and a silver ray rushed towards him behind him, and before he could react, his body was pierced by that silver ray.
The image in his pupils was of a man in a silver hat and cloak, covering himself so tightly that he couldn't see his face clearly, and the weirdly shaped short blade of his right hand was still dripping blood. In his left hand, dozens of extremely thin silk threads were attached, and at the other end of each silk thread was a silver eagle claw throwing knife.
The knives were now inside him, and the silver figure pulled hard with his left hand, and the silk thread dragged the knives back to him with a large patch of blood and flesh. He looked down at the dozens of torn blood holes between his chest and abdomen, and fell straight down.
The man in the silver cloak didn't say a word, and he didn't approach Jing Ge and them, and his figure disappeared into the forest like a ghost.
"Blade." Shangguan Junyue looked at the silver figure and said.
Jing Ge quietly waited for her explanation.
"He's a well-known killer, and if he strikes, his target will surely die. If he wasn't sure, he would never have made a move. The price of his sale is quite high, at least once, and not many people can afford to hire him. Shangguan Junyue said that although she was far away in the Valley of the Medicine King, she didn't know much about the things on the land of the Central Plains.
"In addition, his weapon is very distinctive, a rare metal made of silver sand and dark iron. He used jade silk to connect the flying knife in his hand, and threw it out and could take it back. Both the short blade and the knife have barbs on them, and if you stab only one knife, it will tear a large piece of flesh when he retracts it, and you will bleed to death. Shangguan Junyue said. He's protecting you. ”
"Who asked him to protect me?" Jing Ge asked.
"There are not many people who can afford him to protect you all the way, it should be Luoyang Weijia Wei Zijie, your fox friend and dog friend." Shangguan Junyue said.
"He's clever enough to hire an assassin to protect you." Shangguan Junyue exclaimed. Jing Ge had previously said that those who are good at attacking are also good at defense, and the best assassin is also the best guard.
"Wei Zijie." Jing Ge groaned for a moment and silently remembered it in his heart.
He looked at Shangguan Junyue and stretched out his hand, Shangguan Junyue understood, took out three pills and put them on the palm of his hand.
He walked over, handed two of them to the old man, and said, "The warden of Hedong County is only in the Liupin realm, and both of them died here. No one knew for a while, and I think there are few masters in Hedong County who surpass the sixth grade. It's not difficult to secretly go back and rescue your daughter with your cultivation, so let's find a place to hide in the future. ”
"You're not going to kill us?" The old man asked in surprise, not long ago, the two of them were going to put Jing Ge to death. Now that the two of them are so poisoned that they can't move, who wants to let go of a person who wants to kill them.
"Why should I kill you?" Jing Ge said, "It's not your intention to kill me, but you have no choice but to do so, if you want to liquidate, it has to be counted on the head of the Fifth Division." ”
"You go with him, now you're free." Jing Ge threw another antidote to the man who was sitting cross-legged on the ground struggling to defend against the toxin.
The red-nosed man took the antidote and swallowed it, fell to his knees with tears streaming down his face, kept kowtowing, and said incoherently: "Thank you for sparing my life, thank you for giving me freedom." ”
Jing Ge stepped forward to help him up and said seriously, "Your freedom is not given by me. Everyone should be born equal and free. ”
Shangguan Junyue looked at his back and thought silently in her heart: Is it true that everyone should be born equal and free?
The old man was ashamed, and he really deserved to be the son of Jing Shuai. Such a mind and bearing are far beyond the reach of others, and I am really ashamed that I had murderous thoughts about him before.
He thought for a while, and then fell to the ground resolutely, "I, Gongsun Yang of Hedong, swear to the sky that after I rescue the little girl, I will be loyal to the son of the generalissimo, and follow him for the rest of my life to serve the work of dogs and horses. ”
"So do my red squirrels." The red-nosed man followed suit.
Gongsun Yang knelt on one knee, his body was low, one hand propped on the ground, and the palm of the other hand was placed down in front of him. Red squirrels are the same.
"This is a courtesy, and if you lift them up, you will accept them as your subordinates." Shangguan Junyue reminded him.
Jing Ge thought for a while, and said embarrassedly: "If you follow me, I don't have the salary to pay you." ”
Shangguan Junyue opened her mouth, really wanting to go over and give him a kick. People don't want their lives to follow you, do they still care if you are paid or not?
"Okay, I agreed." Jing Ge helped them up, "You guys go back to Hedong County, just go to what you need to do, just go... Forehead... Where to find me? Jing Ge asked Shangguan Junyue.
"Luoyang Imperial Capital Town, Guogong Mansion." Shangguan Junyue said.
"Well, there it is." Jing Ge waved his hand.
"Yes, Lord."
"Don't call me the lord, it looks like I'm old, you can call me Jing Shuai, Young Marshal, Big Shuai or Boss......"
Shangguan Junyue slapped him in the face and interrupted him, "You stinky and shameless, if you don't beat for a few days, your face is itchy again, isn't it?" ”
"Oops, I was wrong." Jing Ge admitted his mistake without hesitation.
Gongsun Yang and the red mouse left, Yue'er supported Jing Ge and walked forward slowly, Jing Ge felt something in his heart and looked back at a certain place in the dense forest, was the blade hidden there?
He should have been secretly guarding near him, he would have known that he would not be so desperate in Lao Tzu, and he would have died in pain.
"Oh, ah, oh, oh,... It hurts. Jing Ge groaned all the way.
"Alright, you're still not a man. Then ask the old lady to slap you to death. Shangguan Junyue raised his palm and threatened.
After a while, Jing Ge took a second look at the jungle and slowly twisted, and a figure appeared.
"Heh, madam, Brother Jing is back!"
