XV. Assassination (2)
When the person who came saw that the blow could not be achieved, he immediately jumped out of the way.
Invite Yu is not pressing, but only said lightly, "This girl and Songshan Ziyue Gate have no festivals, I don't know why the strong man came this time?" ”
The masked man was stunned, thinking to himself that she had obviously deliberately not used her own sword moves, how did she know that she was a member of Ziyuemen? But she knows that it's the same if she doesn't know, she is a shipwreck today, and if she doesn't succeed, she will become a benevolent. The person who came gritted his teeth and shouted, "Demon girl! Today is your time of death! In an instant, he took out a short dagger carved with the heads of two snakes from his bosom and stabbed it straight into Ling Yu's throat.
Invite Yu smiled, "Can you kill me with a dagger?" ”
I saw that she blocked the dagger on her horsewhip and easily dodged the frontal blow. The Ziyue Sect man seemed to have expected that Invite Yu would dodge, his legs were flat, his body retreated suddenly, and then he turned his wrist and aimed the double snake head at the bottom of the dagger at the façade of Invite Yu. With a slight "click" sound, a short arrow instantly popped out at the place where the snake's head met! But the short arrow has just been shot, but the rain is gone!
The masked man was stunned, and a soft voice came from behind him, "Are you looking for me?" ”
As soon as he turned his head suddenly, he felt a chill on his neck, and then hot blood poured out of his neck, and the masked man held down the wound in horror, and then went to look at Invite Yu, but saw that she was holding a small short arrow in her hand, and the arrow was still dripping with her own blood. How fast do you have to be to unload the short arrow in an instant? The masked man can't count, and he can't count.
I only heard a few "whoosh" sounds in my ears, and a row of arrows whistled in the wind and rain. Invite Yu sighed, the internal force ran in the dantian, and a wave of qi was violently struck, and the crossbow arrows were blown away like fallen leaves in the wind. She glanced at the arrows scattered around her side, apparently poisoned. It seems that these people have made up their minds to take their own lives, and in this case, there is no need for them to show mercy.
With a light tap on his toes, he jumped up the hill with a few jumps. During this time, several more arrows were fired, but they all turned strangely in the air. A group of people on the slope were not masked, but they were also dressed in black. Seeing that Invite Yu came up, he hurriedly threw down the crossbow machine in his hand, drew out a big knife and slashed it.
Invite Yu to look at the people playfully, these people use the same knives, the front end of the knife is slightly straight and all have barbs on the back of the knife, although the handle is an ordinary wooden handle, the side of the handle is firmly reinforced with iron pulp, embedded in the wooden handle and the knife body to form a whole, this kind of workmanship at a glance knows that it is not the craft of the folk blacksmith shop.
Invite Yu's curiosity suddenly rose, but he was not in a hurry to extinguish his mouth. She touched herself, and she didn't even have a weapon in her hand, so she had to take out a few copper coins from her money bag, and with a flick of her fingers, a few copper coins flew out with a "whoosh", shooting directly through the ankle of a killer. The man wailed, his body was crooked, and he fell solidly to eat, and the other people didn't know why, so they all fell to the ground.
Seeing that they were rolling on the ground in pain, Invite Yu couldn't help but say proudly, "Your tendons are broken, and rolling can't cure them!" If you are interested, give it to your master, or this girl will let you get out of here. ”
But before she could finish her sentence, several of the Assassins committed suicide by poisoning.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Invite Yu patted his head, and thought in annoyance, how could he forget the trick of committing suicide, next time I have to be careful! However, since someone is ambushing her here, there must be someone who does not believe the news that she has been burned to death. Also, life is to see people, and death is to see corpses. When the inn caught fire, it was empty, and anyone with a little suspicion would suspect that she was still alive. However, the soldiers are coming, and the water is coming to cover the earth, whether it is the emperor or the people in the rivers and lakes, they have to take into account her father's power, and they dare not do it to her openly, but they are just sending more assassins, which is not enough for her to practice.
This team of people, looking at the official knives used, should have been sent by the Southern Song Dynasty court. Could it be that the little emperor has gone back on his word, and he needs to eradicate the grass to be at ease? But this group of people is really not very good, not so much to assassinate, but more like being sent to explore her reality. But shouldn't the little emperor be very clear about his strength? The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, no matter who it is, if it is to touch her bottom, there must be the emperor's eyeliner watching nearby.
Invite Yu immediately looked around, but didn't find any movement. Listen quietly, and you can't feel the breath of the other party. She looked at the carriage under the hillside, Zimo was struggling to get off the carriage, and Zhu Rong was at the front of the carriage, supporting Zimo while looking around vigilantly.
More is better than less at the moment. Since the other party has no intention of making a move, he might as well take a step back. If you really fight, it will be worth the loss if you hurt Zimo.
Thinking of this, Invite Yu lifted the corner of his skirt and planned to go down the mountain. Suddenly he remembered something, and turned back to the corpse. She searched the ground carefully, and finally her eyes lit up, but then it darkened again. In front of me was a blood-stained copper coin. Now that the money is not easy to make, Invite Yu originally wanted to pick up the copper coin that he had just punched out, but when he saw the blood on it, he was disgusted again. Just hesitating, a flash of inspiration came to invite Yu's mind, such a large group of people came here to ambush her, it would definitely take a lot of silver taels to make a dot on the road, if they were sent by the Liu Song court, the money would be indispensable, this time it was really lucky!
Invite Yu hurriedly bent down and searched the corpses one by one. As expected, a few ingots of broken silver and a bag of gold leaves were found on a corpse, and the eyes of Ling Yu were lit up! If you don't run a family, you don't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive...... Now a single ingot of silver is a treasure trove of gold for her!
Thinking that the little emperor's eyeliner must still be watching, Yu Yu was playful, holding the gold leaf and shouting, "Thank you Emperor for rewarding the silver!" The copper coins on the ground should be regarded as a return gift from the people's daughter! With that, "giggle" laughed and went down the hill.
Seeing that Invite Yu came back, Zimo's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, "Kill them all?" ”
"Poisoned." Invite Yubai picked up a windfall, and he was in a good mood.
"Sent by the emperor?" Hearing the shout of Invite Yu on the mountain, Zimo couldn't help but be a little worried.
"The one at the beginning is a person from Songshan, looking at the number of martial arts, he is not a person from the Heavenly Master Daomen, he probably wants to kill me and make a name for himself."
Zimo frowned, "Songshan has become increasingly powerful in recent years, and it is said that there is a Kou Qianzhi, and even the imperial court has to back down by three points. I hope it doesn't stir up a thousand waves with one stone. ”
"I care so much about him! Even the sect master of Songshan has been found, and I will kill it correctly. She said and shook the gold leaf she had just found, "Look! We've collected so much money for nothing! If they send more killers, we'll have no worries about food and clothing! Invite Yu looked at Zimo happily.
"Nonsense." There was anger in Zimo's words. It's not because of Invite Yu's words, it's just because he not only failed to protect her when he was in danger, but became a burden.
"Let's go find a medical center and prescribe a prescription for you to make up for it, it must be soon?" The two have been alone all year round and have long been in touch.
Before Zimo could answer her, he was grunted——!! A loud bang interrupted.
"What sound?" Invite Yu to inexplicably look for the source of the sound.
Another "goo——!! ”
"It's Zhu Rong's stomach, he's hungry." Zimo rarely showed a hint of a smile.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's hurry up and go to the next town for a big meal!"
After a few strokes of the horse, the carriage disappeared at the end of the road.
It wasn't until they had walked for nearly half an hour that a black shadow descended from a tree in the distance. The man was in the middle of the corpses in an instant, carefully examined the wounds on the legs of each deceased, and then took out a white silk handkerchief from his bosom, wrapped a copper coin on the ground and carried it back into his bosom, and disappeared into the woods in a blink of an eye.
