Chapter Seventy-Five: Assassination in the Night
Li Canghai was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that there would really be such a place, he secretly wrote down Cuiyun Peak, and after eating and drinking, he pulled Di Qing out of the room.
"Canghai, you just have a strange face, but what did you find?" Di Qing asked as she walked.
Li Canghai glanced at her approvingly, but Di Qing's observation was getting more and more careful. He nodded and said, "My guess is really good, the treasure is closely related to the Luofeng Collection, it seems that tomorrow we will go to Cuiyun Peak." ”
After the two left, the shopkeeper who was drunk in the room suddenly raised his head, and a gleam flashed in his originally drunk and hazy eyes.
Suddenly, a man in a green robe with a ghostly face appeared behind the shopkeeper, and he asked lightly, "How are things going?" ”
The shopkeeper bent down at the ghost-faced man, and said with a flattering smile, "The thing has been given to him as you have told, sir, look at this ......." ”
The shopkeeper quickly rubbed his fingers, and the ghost-faced man knew it, reached out and took out a gold ingot and threw it over.
With the help of the gold, he weighed it a few times and said with a smile: "Sir really promised." I wonder if the gentleman has any other instructions? ”
The ghost-faced man was wearing a mask, and he couldn't see the expression on his face, so he said lightly, "If there is something, I will come to you." ”
Before he could finish speaking, a gust of wind blew, and the ghost-faced man suddenly disappeared.
The shopkeeper was stunned, if it weren't for the real gold in his hand, he really thought he had seen a ghost.
"As long as you send a message, you can earn twenty miles of gold, this transaction is worth it!" The shopkeeper laughed a few times and muttered to himself.
said that Li Canghai and Di Qing returned to the room, and just wanted to rest, Di Qing suddenly noticed that someone was peeping outside the door.
With a coquettish shout, she picked up her sword and stabbed it.
The figure outside the door flickered, skillfully dodging the blade of the sword, and then vanished.
Di Qing kicked open the door and found a black shadow flying towards the opposite roof.
Li Canghai was slightly shocked in his heart, he hurriedly ran downstairs and chased after him from the ground.
He frowned, and secretly said that it was not good, could it be that he had been targeted by the 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu', and they were going to assassinate him?
Li Canghai chased straight out of the inn and came to a secluded street corner, but Di Qing was gone.
Suddenly, several figures flashed through the darkness, and several bright blades quickly slashed towards him.
Li Canghai secretly said that it was not good, he was afraid that he had fallen into a trap.
He hurriedly bent down, dodging two slashing blades, while the other sword stabbed him in the chest, as if he wanted his life.
Fortunately, he had learned martial arts in his previous life, and he could still deal with a few hits in a hurry, otherwise the series just now would be enough to kill him several times.
It's a pity that his martial arts that seemed to be very powerful in his previous life are simply three-legged cats when placed here, and a few hot wounds suddenly appeared on his body and back without noticing.
"This official is the commander of Zhengyang County, who is the thief who dares to assassinate me?" Li Canghai couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart, and shouted loudly.
"Zhengyang County Order? You're the one who kills! One of them snorted coldly, and the sword light flashed suddenly, and a sharp and matchless sword aura suddenly slashed towards him.
Li Canghai is unavoidable, and the person who can emit sword qi is definitely a master. He suddenly felt that his life had come to an end, and he was about to be split in half, hoping that Di Qing would still recognize him when he found his body.
Just as he was thinking wildly, a piano sound like a cracked silk suddenly sounded.
Zheng~
As soon as the piano sounded, Li Canghai felt stuffy in his chest, his blood surged up, and his nose clicked, and blood flowed out.
Li Canghai was shocked, hurriedly covering his bleeding nose, and there were bursts of piano sounds in his ears.
"Cover your ears!"
In a panic, a white shadow fell from the sky and instantly fell beside Li Canghai.
Li Canghai's head was dizzy, he hurriedly covered his ears, desperately trying not to listen to the strange sound of the piano, and vaguely he smelled a faint fragrance, as if he saw a peerless face.
Zheng~
Another piano sounded, and the black-clothed men knelt on the ground and vomited blood, their eyes showing horror.
"Let's go!" The leader spat out a mouthful of blood, screamed, and flew up.
"If you want to go, it's not that easy!"
A cold voice sounded in everyone's ears, and between the light strokes of the hands, a transparent piano wave rushed out, and several people who were a little slower let out a muffled snort, and suddenly fell to the ground.
The leader was horrified, raised his hand and threw out dozens of hidden weapons, and then disappeared into the darkness.
With a clang, dozens of hidden weapons landed one after another.
After the sound of the piano, everything returned to calm.
When Di Qing arrived, he saw Li Canghai lying on the ground, hurriedly helping him with Gong Gong Tuina, spit out a mouthful of blood, and then opened his eyes.
"Canghai, how are you?" Di Qing asked anxiously.
Spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, Li Canghai coughed a few times, and said with difficulty: "I'm fine, what about the person who saved me?" ”
Di Qing looked around and shook his head: "When I came, I didn't see anyone else. Although your injuries are not serious, but you have been affected by internal forces, what happened? ”
Li Canghai thought about it, he felt that the figure seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember it really for a while, he muttered: "Someone wants to kill me, it seems that we are getting closer and closer to the truth." ”
"The truth? What truth? Di Qing asked a little puzzled.
Li Canghai stood up and walked over to the corpses of several black-clothed people to check them, all of whom had scars on their faces, and at a glance they knew that they were vicious people.
And what he cared about the most was that these black-clothed men all had the same tattoo on their left arms: a hideous Xuanwu wrapped around a blood-red sword, which looked extremely weird.
'Reverse Scale Xuanwu'! Li Canghai took a deep breath, his expression much more solemn.
Di Qing looked at those corpses, and suddenly became shocked: "I recognize these people, they are all Jiangyang thieves who are rampant in the rivers and lakes, killing people without blinking, and there are their pictures on the government's arrest list!" ”
"Qing'er, you read that right?" Li Canghai asked with a frown.
"These are all outlaws, I have heard their notoriety when I was walking in the rivers and lakes, and I will never admit that I am wrong." Di Qing said with certainty.
Li Canghai suddenly felt that there was something strange in it, the 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu' snare the outlaws, obviously not to do good deeds, it was difficult to meet the 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu' in Luofengji, it should not be accidental.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Li Canghai asked Di Qing, "Qing'er, have you caught up with that person?" ”
Di Qing shook his head and said very depressedly: "I chased the man all the way to a brewery in the southwest of the market, and the man suddenly disappeared out of thin air. ”
