Chapter XIX

The sun in the west was slowly sinking, and the sky was completely dark, but tonight's night seemed to be a little different.

Chu Wu had already sharpened the branch in the afternoon, and she had cut it into the shape of an arrow.

It was just a sharp tip cut on both sides, as thick as a little finger and more than thirty centimeters long, and polished with the little hair oil they had left.

Judging from Chu Wu's current situation, this branch is a good weapon that Chu Wu can use for hand-to-hand combat and killing people unexpectedly, but this is not used a few times, so it is only used for temporary self-defense.

Chu Wu tied it to her leg with a strip of cloth, so that she could pull it out in time to catch the enemy off guard in case of an accident.

The dark and dreary night, as if the boundless thick ink was heavily smeared in the sky, under the hazy moonlight, there were not a few stars to be seen, and under the calm night, there was a strong killing intent, and the palace was not so calm tonight.

Several black shadows flashed quickly towards the study in the central courtyard of the palace, all the way unimpeded, and there was not even a secret guard of the palace to stop them, as if no one had discovered their whereabouts.

The group quickly came to the study and sneaked in quietly, but after the two people in front of them carefully stepped into the door of the study, they fell down without even snorting, and the two people who had not had time to enter the door did not hesitate to quickly turn around and flee outside the palace after seeing the person in front of them fall.

A man in the room said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, they have escaped, should we chase them?" Or let the dark guards outside solve it? ”

Another man hidden in the dark heard this, his eyes flashed slightly in the dark night, and a low and magnetic voice sounded faintly: "You go and deal with these people, don't let them die, this king will chase them." ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey." As soon as Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the two black-clothed people who had fallen.

After Xiao Jingmo finished giving the order, he dodged and chased after him, and followed behind the two black-clothed men in front of him unhurriedly. The two men in black saw that the situation was not right, and wanted to escape quickly, but this time it was not as simple as when they came in.

The two men in black glanced at each other, and then the two of them quickly separated, one of them fled towards the courtyard northwest of the palace, while the other fled in the opposite direction, hoping to increase the chances of escaping from the palace.

Xiao Jingmo's face calmly watched as the two black-clothed men fled in two different directions without stopping them, and his eyes turned to the black-clothed men fleeing in the northwest direction.

The hazy night light shone on his handsome face, and the purple and gold robe flowed with hidden gorgeousness, and from a distance, it looked like a god descended from heaven.

The phoenix eyes, which were too beautiful to speak, looked at the figure of the black-clothed man who fled to the northwest courtyard, flashed a dark light, and then raised his hand and made a gesture behind him, and chased after the black-clothed man. Then several flashes flashed and the black-clothed man with a phoenix tail feather embroidered with silver thread on his chest chased in the opposite direction of Xiao Jingmo.

At the same time, Chu Wu in the northwest courtyard didn't know what had just happened, the dilapidated courtyard emitted a hazy orange light, a small and short red candle stood on the table with a missing corner in the room, trying to emit its own faint light, the wind blew gently, and the candle flame was beating slightly.

Chu Wu was sitting in the room at this time, waiting for Cai Wei to boil hot water and go to take a bath, under the hazy light shining on Chu Wu's white and flawless face, the thick eyelashes like a small fan cast a shadow on the face under the light of the light, flickering, a little red cinnabar mole in the center of the eyebrows in the orange candlelight added a gentle and beautiful to Chu Wu, sitting there quietly, there was a feeling of quiet years, and the beautiful back was also so beautiful that it could be painted.

Chu Wu's face was full of contemplation, and she had some inexplicable feelings in her heart, she always felt that tonight was not very peaceful, so she secretly raised her vigilance in her heart.

Cai Wei trotted in and said to Chu Wu, "Princess, the water is boiling, you can go to the bath." ”

Chu Wu replied softly: "Okay, thank you for your hard work." ”

Cai Wei shook her head when she heard this, and replied with a smile: "It's not hard, it's not hard, this is what a slave should do, princess, go and help you prepare clothes." ”

Chu Wu didn't fight with her, smiled gently at Cai Wei, turned around and walked outside.

Cai Wei knew that since the princess woke up, she no longer wanted her to serve when she took a bath, and she was a little sad at first, thinking that the princess disliked her, but then Chu Wu explained to her.

In addition, she herself is also a big heart, so she is no longer entangled, so she didn't go out with her, and honestly went to get Chu Yu's change of clothes.

When Chu Wu walked to the steps outside the house, she felt that the atmosphere in the courtyard was very strange, and years of military life made her feel the danger at the first time.

Chu Wu subconsciously mobilized the muscles of her whole body, quickly entered a state of defense, and her sharp eyes looked at the corners of the courtyard where people could be hidden, and searched quickly, and the air was filled with a thick murderous aura.

Suddenly, when Chu Wu raised her leg and was about to go down the last step, a black figure rushed towards Chu Wu quickly. The man in black raised his hand and walked towards Chu Wu, and with one move, it was a killing move.

Chu Wu's eyes lit up, and she quickly raised her hand to resist, and on the side of her body, she flashed to the side of the man in black and unloaded his killing move.

Then he quickly attacked the temple of the death hole of the man in black, and the man in black had a deep shock in his eyes, he originally thought that he was just a weak woman, but he didn't expect it to be a master.

Chu Wu's military hand-to-hand combat is very powerful, and no one can beat her except for that "pervert" when she is in the army. In just a few moves, Chu Wu knew that this person was definitely a master, and if she wanted to kill him, she could only kill him as soon as possible, otherwise, when he came to his senses, she might not be able to beat him.

The man in black is indeed a little in a hurry, Chu Wu's martial arts path he can't figure out at all, it's weird, but it's ruthless, and the move is aimed at the vital point of the person, if one is not careful, she will die in her hands.

In this way, after ten moves with the man in black, Chu Wu made a false move, forcing the man in black to show his flaws, and quickly pulled out the branches that were tied to his legs and sharpened at both ends.

turned a dazzling flower, and at the moment when he revealed his flaws, he penetrated the artery of the black-clothed man's neck with lightning speed, and the branch penetrated into the neck, and with a "poof", the black-clothed man looked at Chu Wu with wide eyes, and he didn't expect that he would die at the hands of a woman who looked soft and weak.

The two of them were quick and sharp, although it was only a short minute or two, but it also made Chu Wu a little frightened. This person is too powerful, if he hadn't come to his senses, he really wouldn't have been his opponent.

However, fortunately, the man in black still died at his own hands. Chu Wu looked at the fallen man in black and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

When the man in black fell, Cai Wei happened to come out with Chu Wu's change of clothes, and saw a man in black with something like a tree branch stuck in his neck stretching out his hand to stand in front of Chu Wu. His neck was covered with blood, his eyes were wide open, and he had a completely dead expression, looking horrified and terrifying.

And Chu Wu watched the man in black fall coldly, with the killing intent when he had just fought with the man in black and the indifference after killing the man, and there was no fear at all.
