Chapter 185: The Origin of the Assassin

Inside, Zhang Xuan was also silent.

After listening to this conversation, he probably guessed that he would not be in danger for the time being.

Being held hostage like this was unexpected by Zhang Xuan. The madness and recklessness of such an assassin also exceeded his expectations.

In this way, he immediately had a more rational judgment: the assassins were definitely not appointed by the Li royal family, the descendants of King Ning, King Rong Li Wan or also hidden descendants, they would definitely regard Zhang Xuan as an enemy, but they would definitely not go against the wind and assassinate twice in succession, they did not have the courage and courage.

Where did the Assassins come from? Is there a special purpose in choosing to perform the assassination at this time? Zhang Xuan pondered hard.

Since the crossing, except for the rebellion of King Rong, he has gone out of Beijing to transfer troops, and his footprints have not stepped out of Chang'an City, and the people who have been blamed are none other than the powerful people of the Tang Dynasty, "basically all of them are the Li royal family."

To be honest, Zhang Xuan once doubted the old emperor.

Because this kind of swordsman with strange skills is by no means a cabbage that can be seen everywhere on the street, he can mobilize this kind of power and assassinate him in the capital so arrogantly as an important minister, I am afraid that only Li Longji has no scruples.

But when I thought about it, I thought it was unlikely. The old emperor is not very clear at present, and he is paralyzed in bed, even if he has the heart and the ability.

Zhang Xuan looked at the secret room, the secret room had no windows, "The light is extremely dim, which means that it is likely to be a dark room located underground." Now that the Assassins have hidden themselves here, it is unlikely that they can be rescued and escaped.

Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth, "He has a tough and rational heart, and he is a man in two lives, even if he is facing a desperate situation, he will not easily abandon it."

He moved slightly, feeling that the rope was very tight, and it was more difficult to break free with his strength than to climb to the sky.

At this time, there was a conversation between the two women, one old and one young.

"Kong'er, the old man is going to meet the son, you take a good look at this kid. By the way, "give him some water to drink, don't starve to death, he ♀ is the person that Gongzi pointed out", you must remember not to spoil Childe's big business. ”

"Kong'er, the old body knows that you have a family feud and hates this person to the core, but why is the old body not? Kong'er, remember the words of the old body, our biggest enemy is the emperor, it is the Li family, only by destroying this Li family, "we can get revenge!" ”

After a pause, the old woman admonished again: "There is a trace of ethereal and resentment accumulated over the years in her voice.

The young woman was silent, and there was no news.

Zhang Xuan was silent for a moment, "hesitated slightly, and then moved hard, making a lot of noise."

The door of the secret room suddenly opened, and a young woman with a curvaceous figure wearing a black veil and a face that could not be seen clearly stepped in slowly, staring at Zhang Xuan on the ground with cold eyes.

"You'd better be quiet" Honestly, it's futile for you to call for help, it's in the basement.

You'd better not provoke me, so that I can't help but take your xinzi's voice is extremely cold.

Zhang Xuan smiled lightly, "I won't call" Zhang would not do such a futile thing. ”

It's just that Zhang still can't figure out what kind of grudge Zhang has with the girl, provoking the girl to be like this, "He didn't hesitate to assassinate Zhang in the army in Chang'an City." ”

Zhang asked himself, "I haven't done anything against my conscience in this life." And "Zhang is less than twenty years old, basically in Chang'an City, and he can't hold grudges with others." ”

"Zhang is a weak scholar" who has no power to tie the chicken, and falls into the hands of the girl, which must be a dead end. It's just that the girl can't resist letting Zhang be a ghost and tell Zhang, "Do you and I have a grudge?" ”

The woman was silent, but her gaze was still cold.

Zhang Xuan sighed, "Since the girl is unwilling to say, Zhang can't do anything." It's just that Zhang is in a hurry, can the girl open the door of convenience" Let Zhang be convenient? ”

"Zhang won't escape∨ a certain scholar, in front of the girl's means, can he escape?"

The woman seemed to be frowning, suddenly took a few steps forward, leaned over and untied the rope that bound Zhang Xuan, and then glanced at him coldly, "Come with me." ”

Zhang Xuan hurriedly moved his stiff limbs and followed the woman out.

Outside the door is a deep and dimly lit passage, and he can't see the way from the end∨ Xuan didn't act rashly, "He knows that this woman is willing to let him go, he is not afraid that he will escape, the terrain is unknown, in the hands of such a strong martial arts woman, Zhang Xuan has no chance to escape."

The woman led him to what appeared to be a latrine, and motioned for him to enter.

Zhang Xuan smiled and walked in.

He does want convenience, and that's not false.

After solving the internal emergency, he did not come out immediately, but continued to think about the escape plan.

From those conversations, he could tell that there must be a master behind the two assassins, and that he was the one ♀ named by the master to show that he had the tools that their county master needed.

What is it? Will this be a way to save your life?

Could it be the wealth in Li Wan's secret room? Zhang Xuan shook his head and denied it.

He was very strict about this news, and he didn't have any ability to leak it. And the people who knew the secrets were already dead, and he didn't stop the old emperor from killing all the people in the Rongwang Mansion, and he also stepped out of the consideration of keeping the old secrets.

So what?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration occurred in Zhang Xuan's mind: Could it be the art of gunpowder and firearms?

Due to the prevalence of alchemy, the art of gunpowder is not a secret. But he is the only one who can refine the prototype of gunpowder inadvertently refined by alchemy into a formula that can be fixed and developed and applied to firearms.

Zhang Sanzhi led people to take charge of the research and development of gunpowder and firearms, and now he has developed a rocket with great power and a cannon that is not small. It's just that Zhang Xuan has always been cautious in doing things, and he didn't hand over the core formulas of gunpowder and firearms, some key technologies and drawings, but mastered them himself. In some important links, Zhang Xuan even took it off personally.

From beginning to end, Zhang Sanzhi and others conducted experiments according to the formula provided by Zhang Xuan, and each link was carried out separately and independently, so "Zhang Sanfan, a gunpowder engineer, did not master all the techniques", let alone ordinary handymen.

Zhang Xian knew that this tool would not be kept secret for too long, but it could be kept for a while, and it would be considered a while, "at least until he applied it to the army", and he was unwilling to let the world know.

With the methods of these two female assassins, it must not be difficult for the darkness to sneak into the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and kidnap Zhang Sanzhi to ask about some confidential matters. It's just that they obviously can't resist the most critical tools to get the blame from Zhang Sanfu, because these are all in Zhang Xuan's mind.

If that's the case, the corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth twitched slightly.

A very cold and impatient voice came from outside the door, "Are you finished?" "Alright, alright." Zhang Zeng smiled and pushed open the door and arched his hand towards the woman, "There is Miss Lao!" ”

Zhang Zhen glanced at it and took the lead.

Back in the secret room, the woman was about to continue to tie up Zhang Xuan, but saw Zhang Xuan slowly sitting on the ground, waved her hand and said with a smile, "Zhang has no power to bind the chicken, and there is a girl guarding the door, this binding is not binding" I'm afraid it won't have much effect. ”

"Zhang is willing to talk to the girl."

"Shut up!" The woman scolded.

"The girl held Zhang hostage, if she didn't have a deep hatred with Zhang, then she wanted to get something ♀ from Zhang, the girl didn't have to open the skylight and say bright words, Zhang in order to save her life, as long as Zhang had the tools, the girl spoke, and Zhang had everything."

The woman seemed to think that Zhang Xuan couldn't escape, and in the end she didn't bother to tie him up, and threw the rope in her hand" "1 You'd better be honest, otherwise, I will be ruthless under the sword!" ”

Zhang Xuan smiled, but thought in his heart, "Although this woman's means are high, she doesn't seem to be very familiar with the world."

Although he spoke indifferently, he didn't have much scheming.

"Please ask the girl's surname!"

The woman scolded, "Shut up, don't look for death!" ”

Zhang Xuan didn't care how angry she was" and said to herself, either to find out the origin of her name, or to complain that she had died unjustly, and finally said that the woman was angry, she stepped forward" A dagger slipped from the cuff, probed Zhang Xuan's throat, and said coldly, "If you make noise again, I will kill you!" ”

"Kill it." Zhang Xuan's eyes closed, and he said softly, "Zhang saw that although the girl held Zhang hostage, she did not harm Zhang's guards, it can be seen that the girl is not the kind of person who wants to kill innocents at will...... If the girl must be killed, then kill. ”

"It's just that you can't make Zhang Xuan die and understand?"

A hint of wonder flashed in the woman's eyes, and the dagger in her hand slowly moved away, and she threw it casually, "The dagger was inserted diagonally on the wall behind Zhang Xuan, making a soft buzzing sound.

"Since you are so unwilling, then I will let you die" let you die and understand. The woman's voice immediately became sad, and she slowly lifted the veil, and a beautiful young face came out to ......,

The willow eyebrows are like a crescent moon, and the eyes are like Hou", but the endless indifference surged, which greatly tarnished her beautiful face.

Zhang Xuan stared deeply at the face in front of him, "frowned, and said, "Zhang doesn't actually know the girl. ”

The woman's eyebrows were raised, and she said indifferently, "My surname is Li, and my name is vacant!" ”

"Li Tengkong?!" Zhang Xuan was shocked, "You are Li Linfu's daughter?" ”

"Exactly. Do you feel wronged now? Li Tengkong sneered, "If it weren't for the family teacher's repeated obstructions, I would have killed you a long time ago!" ”

Zhang Xuan gasped. He didn't expect that the female assassin in front of him turned out to be Li Linfu's daughter. He knew that Li Linfu had a daughter who was missing, but he didn't take it to heart.

He smiled bitterly, "Miss Li" is even more wronged by Zhang. There is no grievance and no enmity with your Li family, if you want to avenge your family, you should go into the palace to find the old emperor or Yang Guozhong, isn't it extremely wronged to find the upper and lower levels? ”

Li Tengkong sneered, "Yang Guozhong, I will kill you, but you are not a good tool either." ”
