Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Death of the Fragrance and the Jade
The panicked footsteps approached the cabinet step by step, and a palpitating echo vibrated in the silent space, as if stepping on Liang Zheng's heart......
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a finger behind him swiping slightly.
"Don't move."
He recognized the two words written behind his fingers.
Liang Zheng was stunned, he didn't know what she meant, and he wanted to write on her and ask......
Suddenly!
The originally closed cabinet door opened halfway, and he suddenly understood Sun Zixian's intentions, and just wanted to reach out to pull it, Sun Zixian had already jumped out.
"Steward Bao, it's me."
"Ma'am, why are you here?" Bao Yong was stunned, he had already noticed that there was someone in the cabinet, but he never expected that this person was actually Sun Zixian.
"My kitten got lost, so I ran to the West Cross Yard to take a look." Sun Zixian glanced at him with a wave of eyes, and said tiredly, "I didn't want to go around, so I came here." I heard a noise in the cabinet just now, and I thought it was a cat playing hide and seek with me, so I went in to take a look, and who knew that it was a big mouse, which scared me. ”
As she spoke, she caressed her chest in horror, letting the towering almost torn clothes rise and fall with her exaggerated movements.
Of course, she knew that Bao Yong would not believe her words, but she believed in her charm......
Few men can refuse her temptation......
And what she has to do now is to seduce the man in front of her, and then gain the right to live.
Moreover, take 10,000 steps back and say that although he saw Bao Yong kill people with his own eyes - Bao Yong must also know this, but since Li Shiqing assigned the West Cross Courtyard to him, then naturally he is a person in the same boat as him, the so-called not looking at the face of the monk and seeing the face of the Buddha, at least he has to sell his own face, right?
So he shouldn't do anything to himself......
That's why Sun Zixian dared to come out and help Liang Zheng distract Bao Yong's attention.
"Yes." Bao Yong replied lightly, and at this time, the initial shock on his face had disappeared, replaced by a layer of undeserved desire, "This place is pickled, not a place where Mrs. should come, send Mrs. back to the room." ”
As he spoke, he walked up to Sun Zixian's side and lifted her arm.
For a housekeeper, this gesture is a bit too much of a rude......
Sun Zixian noticed his actions and felt that he understood his intentions, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this very moment!
Suddenly!
The air around him suddenly became an octave colder, and Bao Yong's eyes became as cruel as a poisonous snake at the same time......
He grabbed Sun Zixian's neck!
"Why?" Sun Zixian was full of trepidation......
Didn't he obviously have a lustful heart? Aren't you going to take yourself to his room?
And she is Li Shiqing's wife, no matter how vicious this person is, he shouldn't attack himself, right?
But why?
She wanted to ask, but she didn't get a chance to say a word.
Because those iron hoop-like hands were pinching her neck, and they were still tightening and tightening......
But Bao Yong's face didn't even have the slightest abnormality, the cold and flat eyes, just quietly looking at the life struggling under his hands, making convulsions that were not commensurate with his petite body, allowing the other party's nails to scratch desperate blood marks on his arms......
The flickering candlelight in the room made his face flicker and flicker, and it also reflected the heart of Liang Zheng in the cabinet.
Shooting at this time, of course, can kill Bao Yong with one shot, but then?
As soon as the gunshots rang out, it was bound to alarm the outside, and he and Sun Zixian were also dead and had no place to be buried.
Thinking of this, Liang Zheng suddenly froze there, like a wooden man, watching the tragedy that happened in front of him, watching a flower-like life gradually dissipate in front of him...... I forgot to breathe for a while.
After a long time, Sun Zixian's struggle finally stopped completely, and she lay on Bao Yong's hand softly, motionless.
※※※
That night, Liang Mansion.
It was already the fourth watch, and the deep night had sent the entire county town to sleep, but in the west chamber of the bedroom of the Liang Mansion, the hollow carved panes were still reflected by the dim candlelight of two figures sitting opposite each other.
It was Satsuki holding a needle and thread under the lamp, but her eyes didn't look at the work in her hand at all, but focused on a point on the ground, and she didn't know what she was looking at. On the opposite side of her, Xiao Zhao held her jaw with one hand and casually flipped the teacup with the other, but her eyes were not at any corner of the room at all, but always stayed on the rockery outside the window......
It's already so late, why hasn't the young master come back yet? This has never happened before, even when the host is training intensely, Liang Zheng will go home to take a nap no matter how late it is.
But he was not in the barracks today, but went to Li Shiqing's house......
Others don't know, can she still not know what the Li Mansion is?
If she could have known Liang Zheng's whereabouts earlier, maybe she could still find a way to stop him, but unfortunately Xiao Zhao knew it too late.
And now, although she still maintains a semblance of calm, as time passes, she has become more and more uneasy, and she feels more and more that something big may happen tonight!
Just thinking about it, suddenly there was a gasping sound next to him, Xiao Zhao was startled, and was pulled back to reality:
"Sister, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, poked my fingers." Xiao Yue put her spring onion finger in her mouth and sucked, "I don't know what's going on, I'm always a little restless tonight." ”
"It seems that my sister also feels it......" Xiao Zhao thought secretly in his heart, opened his mouth and was about to speak, when a gust of evening wind hit the ground, blowing the few remaining candles in the room suddenly dimmed, and then there was a strange sound that was so piercing that it made people's teeth sour in the dark night sky.
The two girls invariably tensed their expressions!
It's a code to wake up!
Before they had time to think about it, the two of them unfolded almost simultaneously, swept out of the window like two light swifts, and disappeared into the deep night in an instant.
The rows of shops and houses swept swiftly under their feet, and the two women did their best and galloped on the ridge of the roof, and in less than a meal, they had passed through the block, crossed the city wall, and burrowed into the dense forest on the outskirts of the city, but they saw that the Hessian forest was full of trees on all sides, and it was difficult to discern the direction, but they did not hesitate to fly and sweep, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, the more circuitous they went, and the more they went, the more desolate and secluded they became...... Suddenly, the eyes of the ground suddenly opened up, and it turned out that there was a clearing in the woods, and a man in black stood with his hands behind his back, looking indescribably gloomy in the moonlight.
"Subordinates participate in the White Lotus attendant." The two of them bowed down.
"Excuse me." The man in black turned his head, "Lord Baotan has an order, tonight to raise the fire as a signal, let's do it immediately." ”
"What? Just tonight? Xiao Zhao involuntarily whispered.
"What, do you have an opinion?" The man in black glanced at her in displeasure.
Xiao Zhao hurriedly lowered his head and said no, and at the same time hid the shock in his eyes because of this too shocking news and other emotions that were not humane.
But this was only a moment's work, and when she raised her head again, the autumn-like cut pupils had already returned to normal: "The subordinates are just strange, didn't they originally want to wait for the sect leader to enter Henan, and then we will respond?" Why is it suddenly so urgent? ”
"The situation has changed, but I don't know the specifics, but the altar owner has heard that the envoy has been assassinated, and the conspiracy to do our work has been leaked, so we have to launch it in advance." The man in black said, "But don't worry, we already have everything in place, only the east wind is owed, and everything is the same at any time, so ......"
As he spoke, he took out a flame-shaped arrow from his arms: "Xiao Yue, Xiao Zhao, take the order!" ”
The second daughter immediately knelt down - this flame-shaped order arrow was a holy relic of the White Lotus Sect, seeing this order if the sect leader was there in person, even if there were only a few in the entire Holy Sect.
Bao Yong just had one in his hand, and he would not use it easily, but tonight he actually used it to give orders, which shows that things are extraordinary.
Really......
"Let the two of you kill Liang Zheng immediately!"
Xiao Yue and Xiao Zhao were shocked: "This ...... Waiter, Liang Zheng is not in the mansion tonight! ”
"What did you say?" The man in black shrank his gaze and raised his voice.
"It's true." Xiao Yue replied, "At the invitation of Sun Zixian, he went out this evening and has not come back until now." ”
"He hasn't come back yet?" The man in black gasped.
What's going on?
When Liang Zheng visited, it was very public, and everyone in the mansion knew about it, but not long after he found Sun Zixian to get along, he saw him leave......
Why didn't you go home?
He pondered nervously, pacing back and forth anxiously.
"There is no turning back from the bow, and now that the matter is imminent, we can't wait!" After a while, he paused suddenly, "I will go back to Li's house immediately, and the whole mansion will be strictly investigated, Xiao Zhao, you will immediately steal the talisman from the Liang Mansion to prevent the regimental training battalion from going to the county seat to aid the county - this is the key to whether we can succeed, the altar master will send a team of dead soldiers to support you; Xiaoyue, you are responsible for searching for Liang Zheng's whereabouts inside and outside the city, and once you find this fang, you will immediately kill it on the spot! ”
"Yes. Subordinate Ming ......" Xiaoyue resolutely agreed, but before she finished speaking, she found a familiar figure in front of her.
"I'd better go search for Liang Zheng." Xiao Zhao said, "My tracking skills are better than my sister's. ”
"Everything!" The man in black waved his hand indifferently, "The key is to move quickly, now it has been launched everywhere, we have to send arrows on the string, there is no time." With that, he exerted his strength, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.
The forest regained its first calm......
The second daughter was silent for a moment, and Xiao Zhao was about to turn her head to leave, but she heard a sneer behind her: "Didn't you mean it?" ”
"My little sister doesn't understand what my sister means." Xiao Zhao turned his head and looked at Xiao Yue with a faint gaze.
"You don't understand?" Xiao Yue said coldly, "Okay, then let me ask you, why did you want to chase Liang Zheng with me on an errand?" ”
"I'm also thinking about the overall situation, the altar owner has been preparing for many years, and the fish is dead and the net is broken, but I can't tolerate the slightest sloppiness, and I will lose all the games if I make a mistake." Xiao Zhao's face was pale and blue, and he bit his silver teeth and said, "My sister's tracking skills are not as good as mine, what if I can't find Liang Zheng?" What if you don't find anyone and he goes straight back to the regimental training camp? What if he is allowed to break out of his shell and escape with his troops? ”
She took a bite of "what to do", a series of questions poured out like pouring bamboo beans, asking aggressively, her mouth was fast, and Xiaoyue was a little dizzy when she asked - she was already clumsy in words, and she was stuck for a while before she came back to her senses, Gege smiled, and said, "Are you trying me, or yourself?" Your tracking skills are indeed better than mine, but whether you can catch someone or not depends on whether the person who catches them has the heart or not. ”
"Sister, just rest assured, I know better than you who we are, once you have entered the Holy Sect, it is more difficult to turn back than to ascend to the sky." Xiao Zhao's face was as white as paper, and his eyes were colder than ice, "At the moment of the big event, my sister will never be confused on this, don't forget, we are all people who have drunk the Soul Eater Pill." ”
