Chapter 345: The Expected Secret Attack
Laugh at!
There was an inaudible sound of breaking the air, and a cold light shot out from Xia Jinse's hand, and the man in black widened his eyes, stiffened in disbelief, and then slowly fell down.
In his throat, a hole the size of a pinpoint penetrated a tiny bead of blood. When it first came out, the blood beads were still bright red, and in the blink of an eye, they became pitch black. Xia Jinse held a cylinder in his hand and panted slightly.
From the moment she found out that the sneak attacker had appeared, she had already held the rainstorm in her hands, ready to strike at any time. Sure enough, the sneak attacker appeared, but fortunately she prepared quickly and was able to kill the sneak attacker in time.
Chasing Yun was eager, quickly solved the man in black, and hurriedly rushed towards Xia Jinse: "Princess, are you okay?" ”
"I'm fine." Xia Jinse has calmed down.
No one attacked them again, but Chaiyun stayed by the side and didn't dare to be distracted, she was already very careful just now, but she was still touched from behind, fortunately, the princess was fine, otherwise she would be to blame.
Xia Jinse stared nervously ahead, watching Lan Beichen and a group of sneak attackers confront and kill, she could only hear the sound, the moonlight reflected the sword light and sword shadow, flickering from time to time. But she couldn't see who was who at all, only with a muffled snort and the figures falling down one by one, she could feel the fierceness of the battle.
She waited nervously, knowing that Lan Beichen had already prepared, but she still couldn't feel at ease.
A bright light, suddenly shot in an arc, and it turned out to be a rocket.
As if a long light and shadow were outlined in the night sky, it went straight to Lan Beichen's vest, and in an instant, the firelight came in an instant, illuminating the surroundings. Xia Jinse barely saw clearly, there were already six or seven people around, and one person was stabbed in the throat by the opponent's sword, unable to distinguish between friend and foe, and the sword was pulled out at once, bringing out a piece of blood.
Xia Jinse's eyes widened, but she didn't scream, it was not the first time she had experienced danger, she knew that she couldn't affect Lan Beichen. Fortunately, in the next moment, Lan Beichen disappeared in place like a ghost, and the rocket was nailed to a tree, blazing, and the leaves were verdant, and it would not burn for a while, but instead illuminated the surroundings.
At this moment, Xia Jinse finally saw Lan Beichen's movements clearly.
There were a few people around him to protect him, obviously the people he had arranged a long time ago, and there were five opponents, and they were no longer Lan Beichen's opponents. Physically like a swimming dragon, Lan Beichen made a move, the other party had already fallen, he gathered his momentum and stood still, and the battle was over in a moment.
Shattered Star and the other person pointed their swords at the two black-clothed captives, Lan Beichen glanced at them, and turned to look for Xia Jinse.
He jumped over, like a Kunpeng in the night, and landed steadily beside Xia Jinse, when he grabbed his hand, Xia Jinse was completely relieved, and said hurriedly: "It's not hurt, right?" ”
"No, did it scare you?" Lan Beichen also held her hand tightly.
He saw Xia Jinse's attack just now, but he didn't have the skills, but fortunately she was fine, and the feeling of palpitations in his heart was pressed in the bottom of his heart and he didn't show it. It's just that he understands that no matter how thorough he is, accidents can happen, and he must try to avoid such dangerous things in the future.
Shattered Star's voice came and could be heard clearly: "Who sent you?" ”
The other party didn't speak, his eyes were cold, and then he became empty and dazed, and his figure fell backwards in a flash.
"It's not good...... Shatterstar noticed something, but before he could stop it, it was too late. The other party fell on his back, already dead, and Shatter Star tore off the other party's mask, only to see a line of black blood flowing from the corner of the man's lips, obviously preferring to commit suicide by poison than confess.
The other was the same, both committed suicide at the same time, leaving no words.
rummaging around the sneak attackers for a while, Shattered Star didn't find any clues, and said, "Lord Wang, they are all dead, nothing has been found, and their identities cannot be determined." ”
Lan Beichen frowned, picked up a burning dry wood in the fire, and walked towards these black-clothed people.
In the dense forest, there were corpses of people in black everywhere, and three of Lan Beichen's men died, and the rest stayed behind him, silent, just watching him look at the faces of the people in black.
Lan Beichen touched the faces of these people, and changed them one by one, Shattered Star seemed to understand what Lan Beichen meant, and also rechecked it again.
Soon, Shattered Star shouted: "Lord Wang, look at this person!" ”
He lifted this person's body and walked over, lifted his weight lightly, and threw this person in front of Lan Beichen. A thin piece of skin was torn off his face, and a different face was underneath.
"Koryo!" Lan Beichen's face changed slightly, and his expectations were finally confirmed.
"Sure enough, it's them!" Shattered Star also understood.
Xia Jinse didn't know this person, and Shattered Star said: "Princess, they were sent by Lin Kangnian." This Kou Liang is a guest of the Lin Mansion, although he is a character in the rivers and lakes, he has been working for Lin Kangnian, usually helping him to protect the Lin Mansion and doing some things that are not visible. ”
Hubu Shangshu Lin Kangnian, is actually him? He dared to assassinate Lan Beichen!
Xia Jinse didn't understand why Lin Kangnian sent someone to assassinate Lan Beichen, but since he sent his most trusted henchman, he must be afraid of revealing the news. And the other party would rather commit suicide than confess if he failed, so you can imagine how much Lin Kangnian paid in order to assassinate Lan Beichen.
There were no outsiders, Lan Beichen briefly told Xia Jinse about yesterday's events, and Lin Kangnian probably heard the conversation between him and Emperor Yuanqing, so he quickly started.
It is conceivable that Lin Kangnian has been afraid of Lan Beichen for many years.
"Kou Liang has no second way but to commit suicide, whether I force him or not, Lin Kangnian will never want him again. Unless he succeeds in his mission! Lan Beichen said coldly, already thinking of the seriousness of the result.
Xia Jinse frowned and said, "Lin Kangnian wants to send someone to kill you, just for the second prince, right?" ”
Lan Beichen nodded: "When I met him outside the imperial study, I guessed it, and he really did it." A flash of sharpness flashed in his eyes, but it didn't disappoint him, Lin Kangnian really moved fast, as soon as he learned that he had left the capital, he immediately sent someone to follow him, for fear of missing the opportunity.
Similarly, there was an assassination on his side, and needless to say, something must have happened at home.
Xia Jinse was taken aback: "That's right, Mrs. Song!" What if she gets implicated? Lin Kangnian will definitely send someone to assassinate him as well, because he wants to keep his daughter's position. ”
Now there is no master in the Jin Palace, only Song Fanzhen is there.
As long as Song Fanzhen is killed, Emperor Yuanqing will not dissolve the harem, and the crisis of the jade concubine will be solved.
Although everyone didn't think that Emperor Yuanqing would really dissolve the harem, the existence of a woman like Song Fanzhen would make Concubine Yu and other harem concubines fidget. If Song Fanzhen can be killed, it will not only solve the crisis of the concubines, but also curry favor with the Queen Mother.
But Lin Kangnian didn't expect that this outing was Lan Beichen's design, and he was just going to start.
The surroundings fell silent, and the shattered stars and chasing clouds dispersed, and after checking the surroundings, they found no more danger. Lan Beichen left here with Xia Jinse, and the rest of the matter was naturally dealt with.
"Will they come later?" Xia Jinse took Lan Beichen's hand, and the road down the mountain was a little steep.
Lan Beichen hugged her, jumped lightly as if he was walking on the ground, walked to a flat place and let her down, and said as he walked: "It shouldn't be, just now they were all the elites under Lin Kangnian, and he lost more than a dozen, isn't he heartbroken?" ”
It's okay if not, Xia Jinse asked again: "Then are we going back to the courtyard now?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she limped on her feet and almost tripped over a raised rock. Lan Beichen quickly picked her up, and at the foot of his feet, the two of them flew up as if riding the night wind.
The starry sky is dense, the light is flickering, Xia Jinse looks up at the sky, blowing the cool night breeze, as if the clouds are driving the fog. The previous sense of crisis gradually disappeared, the two of them fell together, Lan Beichen stepped lightly, and the two of them advanced a few feet away, this way of leaping forward made Xia Jinse feel novel and exciting.
But Lan Beichen didn't go down the mountain, and he turned a corner halfway up the mountain.
"Where are we going?" Xia Jinse became curious.
The crisis is over, even Shattered Star and Chasing Cloud are left behind by Lan Beichen, where is he going to take her?
Lan Beichen smiled slightly, did not answer, and his figure was faster.
Along the way, the wind was galloping, and the trees swept under his feet, and he didn't know how long he had been flying, but Lan Beichen finally stopped.
In front of me was a mountain wall, but there were no vines, and a cave that I didn't know how deep it was presented, and there was a cold air. Xia Jinse was a little scared, the black cave was like a monster's huge mouth at night, trying to devour her.
Lan Beichen put down Xia Jinse, took a few steps forward, picked up a torch and lit it somewhere, and walked straight forward.
The firelight illuminated the surroundings, and Xia Jinse could only follow forward, and when she stood at the entrance of the cave and looked in carefully, she was stunned.
A rainbow of colors, reflected from the crystals, where is this ordinary cave? It's clearly a mine cave, a crystal mine cave!
"It's a rare birthday, I've wronged you to go to danger with me, so naturally I want to compensate you, come in and have a look." Lan Beichen greeted her with a faint smile on his face.
In the firelight, the walls of the cave were full of exposed crystals, and Xia Jinse was surprised to see that there was more than one kind of these crystals. The most common white crystal, citrine, amethyst, green crystal, pink crystal...... It flashes like neon, and it is dazzling.
"Oh my God, Lan Beichen! Why so many crystals? How did you find out? Xia Jinse was surprised and delighted.
Natural crystals are excellent decorations, and they come in different colors, and the quality is so good, it is absolutely valuable. As soon as she turned her head, she saw a crystal pillar one foot high, countless crystals clustered upward, thicker than her whole person, like a huge sword, pointing at the sky.
"This crystal cave didn't exist originally, but it was accidentally discovered by an earthquake three years ago."
Lan Beichen said: "This mountain belongs to my name, and this crystal mine naturally belongs to me, but it has not been mined in the past two years, and it retains its most primitive form." ”
It turned out to be the mountain of Lan Beichen!
Xia Jinse didn't know whether she was surprised or delighted, although she was not greedy for money, she always liked it when she saw magnificent things. What's more, the quality of the crystals in this mine cave is too good, she casually looked at the cave wall, a large piece of it was exposed, if it was used to make a whole crystal head, how beautiful it would be!
