Chapter 419: Where Did You Go in the Middle of the Night?
Cui Xianzong leaned back comfortably and continued.
"Then you can go back today, you and I will be officially formed, and if it is useful to you in the future, I will send someone to inform you!"
Hearing this, Tang Chuyao's tense nerves relaxed slightly.
She bowed her head and bowed her hands.
"Yes, the subordinates retired."
With that, she left.
Out of that depressing room, Tang Chuyao relaxed at this time.
She exhaled deeply and went back to her room.
As the night deepened, an agile figure quietly entered Tang Chuyao's house under the cover of the night.
He knocked lightly twice at the window.
Tang Chuyao heard the movement, hurriedly came over and opened the door and let the black shadow in.
"Come on in."
After the black shadow entered, Tang Chuyao looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he closed the door firmly again.
As soon as she turned around, she saw that the black figure had already taken off the black scarf covering her face, revealing her true face.
This person is not Chu Tianchen, and who is it.
"You're here."
Tang Chuyao bolted the door, walked over to the table and sat down, and said in a low voice.
Chu Tianchen's eyes were full of unconcealable tension and worry, and he didn't care about anything else, so he first looked at Tang Chuyao carefully.
"Are you hurt?"
Seeing him worrying about himself like this, a warmth rose in Tang Chuyao's heart.
She naturally turned around in front of Chu Tianchen, raised her chin quite complacently, and raised her eyebrows.
"Why, don't worry, I'm fine. With my acting skills, can he see the flaws? ”
Only then did Chu Tianchen put his mind at ease, and shook his head with a helpless smile.
Touching Tang Chuyao's round head and coiled hair, he asked softly.
"That's fine. What do you think? Have you found out all about it? ”
began to talk about business, Tang Chuyao also sat down calmly, and his expression became serious.
She nodded, it was late at night, and she was worried that the wall had ears, so she lowered her voice and approached Chu Tianchen's ear.
"The group of people we caught didn't tell a lie, this Cui Xianzong does have a problem, he is indeed studying the legendary secret art of immortality, he called me over today, saying that he admires my courage very much, and asked me if I would like to form an alliance with him, and when his secret medicine is successfully developed, he will share it with me."
Worried that Chu Tianchen would be jealous at this inopportune moment, Tang Chuyao naturally omitted some inconsequential matters.
Hearing this, Chu Tianchen frowned thoughtfully and raised his own questions.
"Why does he have to ally with you? And promised you to share immortality with him? Could this be a fraud? ”
Hearing this, Tang Chuyao also shook his head.
"I don't know, but I don't think he's lying to me, maybe it's just appreciation?"
couldn't think of a reason for a while, so Chu Tianchen had no choice but to give up.
"I don't know what his purpose is for the time being, you should be vigilant yourself. By the way, is there any way you can get those people out now? The longer it drags on, the more I worry about the bad luck of those people. ”
Speaking of this, Tang Chuyao suddenly remembered the wine glass in Cui Xianzong's hand today.
She pondered for a moment, then tentatively.
"Poison him slowly? Since ancient times, medicine and poison are not separated, I already know medical skills, and I also know a little bit about natural poison, I know a medicine, as long as you take a little bit every day, the toxicity will slowly erode the internal organs! ”
"When the time comes, this person will slowly become weaker and weaker, and finally die silently, absolutely no one can see the flaw, this is the safest way."
Listening to Tang Chuyao's method, Chu Tianchen also nodded approvingly.
"It's safe, but it's also the most dangerous thing for you, and if he finds out, it's hard for you to get out."
After a pause, he added.
"Why don't I go for you."
Tang Chuyao didn't react for a while, was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him with a smile.
"That's definitely not going to happen, big brother, it's so easy for you to talk about it, and you and I are very different in height and size, so wouldn't it be easier to be discovered."
Seeing that he couldn't help it, Chu Tianchen had to sigh helplessly.
"Okay, since you insist on this, with your character, it's useless for me to say anything."
As he spoke, Chu Tianchen pulled the green silk on Tang Chuyao's ears and temples, and his eyes were filled with faint worry.
"It's just that you must be careful when you act, don't be reckless when you encounter danger, and withdraw if you can't do it."
Although the words were domineering, he was extremely reluctant to give up between the words, he took Tang Chuyao into his arms and tightened his arms.
Hearing this, Tang Chuyao's body stiffened, not that he was not used to being embraced by Chu Tianchen.
It's just that there are so many sentimental hims, but she hasn't seen him much.
Her heart warmed, and she raised her hand to wrap around Chu Tianchen's sturdy waist.
"I know, don't worry!"
As she spoke, her slender fingers gently stroked Chu Tianchen's back, as if she intended to appease his worried heart.
Suddenly, just as the two of them were talking to each other, there was a sound of neat footsteps.
Tang Chuyao was startled, and hurriedly left Chu Tianchen's arms, taking two steps back but accidentally stepped on a dead branch.
The "crunch" sound is particularly harsh in the silent night sky.
"Who?"
The patrolman shouted loudly, and immediately raised his hand and stopped the group behind him.
Immediately, he vigilantly grasped the handle of the saber at his waist, and walked towards the dark place where the sound was made.
"Come out!"
There was another thud, but there was no movement in the darkness.
Tang Chuyao held Chu Tianchen's hand, and stared at the pair of feet that moved closer.
Suddenly, a black cat jumped up from the shadows and jumped to Tang Chuyao's feet.
Seeing this, Tang Chuyao immediately put his throat against his throat and called out "meow".
At the same time, she pinched the opportunity to drive the cat towards the light.
The black cat was frightened, and with another vertical leap, jumped directly into the arms of the patrol leader.
"Meow Meow ......"
There were two muffled meows, and the black cat struggled, brushing twice and swiping two paws on the back of the patrol leader's hand.
"Shhh...... Damn brutes! ”
In an instant, blood flowed from the back of the patrol leader's hand.
He frowned, furious, and slashed with his knife like a black cat.
Unexpectedly, the black cat was agile, and a few dodged and ran away without a trace.
Seeing that the black cat disappeared, the patrol leader looked gloomy, and after taking a sip, he directly withdrew the knife to his waist.
"Damn, it's just a cat all the time!"
With that, he turned around and waved his hand.
"Keep patrolling!"
The patrol behind him breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move elsewhere.
When the team walked away, Tang Chuyao's heart was put down.
"The patrol seems to have intensified tonight, let's all be careful, I'll go back first so as not to be suspicious."
After speaking, without waiting for Chu Tianchen to react, she took advantage of the night to sneak back to her residence.
The room was pitch black, and she held her breath and listened for a while, feeling that nothing was wrong before she completely relaxed.
In the past few days here, her nerves have been tense all the time, and she has been a little tired.
Thinking of it, her eyes darkened.
Without rescuing everyone, she still couldn't let up for a moment.
She clenched her fists, and it took a while for her to take off her coat and lie down to rest.
In the middle of the night, she was sleeping soundly, and a slight fluctuation in air pressure woke her up.
Immediately, I heard a knock on the door.
Hearing this voice, she couldn't help but feel a thrill all over her body.
Tang Chuyao's star-like eyes suddenly opened, shining in the night.
It's so late, who could it be?
It could never be Chu Tianchen, he had never been in the habit of knocking on the door.
Sometimes, it comes in directly.
Puzzled, she glanced at the clothes she had stripped to the ground.
Oh no, her hair is loose now, and this daughter will definitely be exposed if she is seen.
When the time comes, she will definitely not be able to explain why she has a woman in the dungeon.
Even if Cui Xianzong is a complete fool, he will doubt it.
She couldn't take that risk!
In a hurry, she concentrated into the portable space, reflecting the space, staring at the movement in the room.
After a while, no one came to open the door, and the people who knocked on the door outside gradually became impatient.
There was a snap, and her door was kicked open.
Cui Xianzong actually led a group of people to break in directly.
"What about people?"
He yelled, and the minions behind him immediately lit the fire and lit the oil lamp in the room.
"Back to the city lord, there is no one in the room!"
The little minion looked flattering.
This guy finally showed his feet, and the red man around the city lord was originally his.
As soon as this guy came, he almost fell out of favor!
The little minion was a little gloating, and hurriedly welcomed Cui Xianzong into the house.
At this time, Cui Xianzong's face was already darkened, as if he was about to be angry.
Obviously they have already slept, how can there be no one?
"Knocking on the door for a long time and no one answered, the house was empty, what's going on? What about people? ”
Cui Xianzong's muscles were furious, and his hands behind him were creaking.
"Could it be that the city lord's mansion has been mixed in with spies?"
Just as he squinted his eyes and looked around, a respectful voice came from behind him.
"Lord Castle, why are you here?"
Tang Chuyao pushed aside the crowd and walked in from outside the room, looking puzzled.
If she doesn't come out again, I'm afraid she will really be speechless and will be exposed.
At this time, her hair was pulled up, her clothes were well tied, and her low voice seemed to be a man's posture again.
Hearing this, Cui Xianzong was slightly surprised, turned to look at Tang Chuyao who came from behind him, and raised his thick eyebrows.
"It's so late, where have you been? Why not in the room? ”
As he spoke, he circled around Tang Chuyao twice with a look of surprise, but there were all kinds of suspicions in his heart.
Tang Chuyao was a little uncomfortable by him, and under his heroic eyebrows, a pair of big eyes blinked innocently twice.
"Lord of the City, I was just in a hurry, and I came out of the thatched house to relieve myself, and I will see you when I come back."
As he spoke, he shook his body very cooperatively, as if he had just solved the three emergencies.
Hearing this, the corners of Cui Xianzong's mouth twitched twice, and he was speechless.
