The strong musty smell rushed straight into his nostrils, and Liu Wei felt wet and uncomfortable. Shaking his swollen head, he slowly opened his eyes.

What appeared in front of him was a dark scene, but because he had slept for too long, the darkness did not completely lose his vision, and he could still vaguely distinguish the scene around him.

Underneath him was a wet straw mat, and not far from him, there lay a man, who crouched quietly, as if he had no breath of life at all, and in the dark space, there was a faint smell of blood.

It was very quiet all around, and Liu Wei pricked up his ears, wanting to hear the movement of the man on the ground, but he couldn't even hear the man's breathing.

I wanted to raise my hand and rub my eyes that were a little swollen, but Liu Wei's arms were tightly bound, and it was extremely difficult to even twitch his fingers.

Turning his head to look at the man lying not far away, to make sure that the person was either asleep or in a coma, Liu Wei rubbed his body backwards until his back rested on the nearest pillar, and then stopped moving.

Tie your hands apart and rub the rope against the pillar. The wooden stake may have been damp all year round and was already a little soft, and Liu Wei could clearly feel that as he rubbed, the sawdust on the pillar was falling down the slur with a "pop".

The sound of rubbing against the stake is not loud, but it is clear in the tranquil environment. Every time Liu Wei rubbed it, he would look nervously at the person lying on the ground.

Although the stake was already soft, the rope that bound Liu Wei's arm was still worn out by him. The soft skin of the stake rubbed less and less, gradually revealing the hard inner branches. The rope that bound Liu Wei was getting thinner and thinner, and it didn't take long for the hemp rope to finally break off with a soft "snap".

As soon as the hemp rope was broken, Liu Wei quickly took the rope off his body, carried half of the hemp rope, and jumped to the figure lying not far away.

Jumping to the man's side, Liu Wei quickly wrapped half of the hemp rope around the man's neck, and then strangled it hard.

As he tightened the rope hard, he sensed that something was wrong. The man lying on the ground, his body was cold, without the slightest breath, and his muscles had already stiffened, apparently dead for some hour.

This discovery shocked Liu Wei, and he hurriedly let go of the rope in his hand, and regardless of whether there were others behind him, he jumped out to the side.

As soon as Liu Wei jumped away from the corpse, there was a soft sound of "snort" in his ears, and with this soft sound, a sharp long sword pierced the corpse's chest.

"It's pretty fast!" As soon as Liu Wei's figure stabilized, a cold voice floated into his ears: "As a Han clan, it is really not easy to have such skills!" ”

Although the sound that came into the ears was cold, it was still very pleasant and gentle. If it weren't for the critical situation in front of him, hearing this voice, Liu Wei would definitely want to see who was speaking.

But right now, he doesn't have the time, let alone the opportunity to think about who is speaking. When the man's long sword plunged into the corpse's chest, Liu Wei then rolled on a lazy donkey, jumping a little farther away from the man.

"If I wanted to kill you, you would have died!" Jumping to the corner of the wall, Liu Wei half-squatted on the ground, frowned slightly, his muscles tensed, and put on a posture that would attack at any time, staring silently in the direction where the voice came from.

It was dark in front of him, and he couldn't see the face of the speaker at all, and he could only vaguely distinguish a figure in the dark. The figure was very hazy, as if a thin black shadow had been plated around the body.

However, in the haze, Liu Wei could see that the figure was very slim, not as stout as ordinary assassins, and even a little gourd shape could be seen in the vague middle.

Such a figure, even a very thin man will not have, only a woman with a wide pelvic bone can appear in the haze with such a soft line.

"Just now, this person intends to take advantage of His Highness's coma and kill His Highness!" Liu Wei squatted in the corner of the wall, staring at the black shadow silently, but the black shadow slowly pulled out the long sword on the corpse's chest at this time, and said to him unhurriedly: "If it weren't for the next move, His Highness might not have the possibility of waking up......

"Didn't the girl kidnap this king for the purpose of assassination?" As soon as the black shadow's words fell, Liu Wei asked her with doubts: "Then the girl has taken this king hostage here, I don't know what her intentions are?" ”

"Find out!" was called a "girl" by Liu Biao, the black shadow did not refute, but groaned slightly, and then said to Liu Bian: "Dare to ask Your Highness, when Wang Yue left Luoyang, did you leave anything for Your Highness?" ”

Although there were memories of Liu Wei in the past remaining in his mind, after the black shadow asked this sentence, Liu Wei quickly searched every corner of his brain, but he still didn't think of any clear memories related to Wang Yue.

In the past, Liu Wei inherited the throne as a young man, and then the court was chaotic, living in fear all day long, and he had a hazy impression of the emperor Wang Yue who had taught him swordsmanship, not to mention what Wang Yue had said to him when he left Luoyang.

After searching almost all his memories, Liu Wei still couldn't think of any useful clues, and finally had to say to the black shadow: "It has been several years since the emperor left Luoyang. After such a long time, this king can't remember what he said back then! ”

When Liu Wei said that he couldn't remember what Wang Yue had said to him back then, the black shadow's mood was obviously a little lost.

She didn't say anything for a long time, faced Liu Wei, stood far away for a while, and then turned her head and walked out.

His eyes followed the black shadow, and it was not until the figure of the black shadow disappeared into darkness that Liu Wei lowered his voice and shouted at her: "Girl, since you don't want to kill this king, why don't you let this king go?" ”

The black shadow did not respond to Liu Bian, and in the empty room, Liu Biao did not even hear his own echo.

Knowing that the black shadow was guarding outside the door, Liu Wei knew that when he broke the rope before, the black shadow was silently looking at him.

Since the other party dared to let him untie the rope, he must have the ability to subdue him. There was not even a single window in the room, and Liu Wei almost had no hope of successfully escaping.

Just as Liu Wei was thinking about how to escape from here, there was a sudden sound of people talking outside.

"Miss Liu'er, please hand over the king of Luoyang to me." The first thing that came into Liu Wei's ears was the voice of a young man.

The man's voice was not very loud, and his tone was full of respect, obviously not daring to offend the assassin named "Liu'er" too much.

The young man's voice fell, and Liu Wei bouted his ears, wanting to hear what the Liu'er girl had to say. But he didn't hear anything, and it was clear that Miss Liu'er had turned a deaf ear to the man's words.

"Mr. Wang Wei wants me to come and kill the king of Luoyang, and I hope that Miss Liu'er will be successful!" Liu Er didn't respond to the man, and after a while, the man continued: "When the city is full of soldiers and horses under the command of the king of Luoyang, it has been delayed for too long......"

"So what?" This time, without waiting for the man's words to fall, Liu Er sneered, interrupted him, and said to him: "Wang Xun is Wang Chen, I am me, he said that he wanted to hand over the King of Luoyang, I would hand it over, didn't I obey him?" ”

"Uh......" Liu'er's words were obviously beyond the expectations of the man who spoke, and the man was stunned for a while, and after a while, he said to Liu'er: "Since that's the case, I'll wait to leave!" ”

In the dark hut, Liu Wei quietly listened to the sound of conversation outside, and it was not until a sound of stumbling footsteps walked away that he sat down next to the wall, clasped his hands on his knees, and looked up at the black roof, thinking about how to slip out from under the nose of the Liu Er girl.

As he was thinking about what to do, the door creaked, and a small sound of footsteps entered the room.

The footsteps came to a very close place to Liu Wei before stopping, and then Liu Wei heard Liu Er's melodious voice like a nightingale singing: "Just now, I waited to speak, and the King of Luoyang must have heard it clearly." ”

"Thank you, girl, for not handing over this king." Before Liu Er's words fell, Liu Wei stood up, clenched his fists and said to her: "It's just that this king doesn't know, since the girl doesn't want to hand over this king to them, why don't you let this king leave?" ”

"What I want to know is not yet clear, how can I let you go?" In the darkness, Liu Er said with a little gloom in her tone: "I also know that this assassination of His Highness, whether it is successful or not, Liu Er will definitely die......

When he was held hostage by Liu Er, Liu Wei still had a little resentment towards the woman in front of him, but for some reason, after Liu Er said this, he faintly sympathized with Liu Er in his heart.

Liu'er's tone was very sad, as if she had prepared for the fate of death, in order to exchange her death for a truth.

"Why did the girl ask this king about the emperor?" Faintly feeling that the truth that Liu Er wanted to find out was inextricably linked with the emperor Wang Yue, Liu Wei's eyes stared at Liu Er standing in the darkness without blinking, and asked her, "Dare to ask what the girl has to do with Wang Yue?" ”

"Wang Yue is my father!" An answer that did not surprise Liu Wei in the slightest came out of Liu Er's mouth: "A year ago, my father died suddenly at home. My father has always been healthy, but when he passed away, his face was pale, which made Zai Xia feel puzzled......"

Before Liu Er's words were finished, Liu Wei said: "Only people who are poisoned or terminally ill will only turn blue when they die, if the emperor has no signs, he should be poisoned!" ”

"Poisoned?" Listening to Liu Wei's words, Liu Er turned her head to look at him in confusion and blurted out a question to him.

Although it was dark all around, Liu Wei could see the deep doubt in her eyes that glowed faintly in the dark.

"I think it's poisoning!" Staring at Liu Er's eyes that glowed faintly in the dark, Liu Wei nodded very affirmatively, and said to her: "The emperor is definitely not a natural death!" ”

While Liu Wei made a speculation, Liu Er did not speak, obviously she was deeply convinced of Liu Wei's statement. "Bang", just as Liu Wei was about to continue talking, there was a sudden sound of being hit by a heavy object on the roof, and then, the sound became closer and closer, as if countless things were thrown on the roof.

"Where's the mushy smell?" As soon as the sound of heavy objects falling on the roof stopped, Liu Er sniffled and muttered subconsciously.
