Chapter Ninety-Two: Night Attack
King Xuan quickly recovered his previous appearance, as if Xiao Li was just dazzled just now. However, Xiao Li had become wary of King Xuan, at least for her.
After a few people were polite, the king of Xiliang gave them a seat.
"I didn't expect Lone to meet the Holy Maiden!" King Xiliang's face was full of excitement, and his eyes were shining at Xiao Li.
Xiao Li was embarrassed by the little girl's staring, and smiled awkwardly: "I'm just an ordinary person." ”
"The saint doesn't have to be humble, it's recorded in the history books of Xiliang." King Xuan's voice resounded in the palace, but it did not lose its majesty, "The Holy Maiden is powerful, and the one who is chosen by the Green Flame is the destiny of heaven." ”
As he spoke, King Xuan's eyes looked at Xiao Li's right hand, and the green flame was still shining.
Xiao Li was very curious, how the Holy Maiden of Xiliang was defined. Why is having a green flame a saint? And she thinks that Green Flame has something to do with crossing, could it be that the saintess is the one who crosses?
Thinking of this, Xiao Li couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. She may not be the only one who has crossed and created kingdoms before her.
From all aspects of Xiliang, there is a modern feeling, and Xiao Li's thinking is also well-founded. Perhaps, the green flame in her hand will really allow her to travel back.
"It's a long journey, and you all need to rest." King Xuan suddenly interrupted the conversation, got up and called the two palace maids in, "You take the holy woman and this divine doctor to the residence." ”
King Xuan said so, and everyone had no choice but to get up and give up. Wei Yan didn't have any eyes flowing, he couldn't see what he was thinking, and watched Xiao Li and them leave.
Xiao Li and Fang Xiong followed the palace maid to the residence, and she looked up at the plaque that read "Bixuan Palace". The environment is very good, I don't know how much bigger than Xiao Li's pear courtyard.
After the palace maids left, Fang Xiong came to Xiao Li with a serious expression.
Xiao Li had just settled down, and the two of them sat at the table without saying a word.
Suddenly, Fang Xiong put down the teacup and said, "Xiao Li'er, what do you think of King Xuan?" ”
Xiao Li smiled: "I think King Xuan is very good." ”
She deliberately amplified her voice, dipped her hand in tea and wrote a "no" on the table. He motioned to Fang Xiong with his eyes and told him to be careful.
Only then did Fang Xiong understand what Xiao Li meant and changed the topic, but they kept communicating with pen and paper.
It turned out that Fang Xiong was also suspicious of King Xuan, this person looked amiable on the surface, but he was definitely not a good person in secret.
"Grandpa Fang, it's not early, go back and rest."
After chatting, Xiao Li also ended the topic. Before Fang Xiong left, Xiao Li wrote four more words, "Be careful at night". She felt that tonight, King Xuan would definitely send someone to test them.
Wait until Fang Xiong leaves, and only those who are lying on the roof leave.
The candlelight flickered, and the man was standing in front of the window looking at the scenery outside: "What did you find?" ”
The man in black quietly walked into the room and knelt on the ground: "There is nothing strange about it. ”
King Xuan didn't turn around, just nodded, the corners of his lips slightly hooked.
In Bixuan Palace, Wei Yanwu walked in with brisk steps.
"Xiao Li'er, are you still used to living?" Wei Yanwu looked immodest again, and his amber eyes were full of smiles.
Xiao Li was wandering around the palace at this time, so as not to be attacked and didn't know where to run.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Li was a little impatient, she had always felt uneasy, but she couldn't talk to Wei Yanwu.
Wei Yan found a place to sit down without thinking about himself, and looked at Xiao Li: "I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow!" ”
Xiao Li's black grape-like eyes rolled up and down, and nodded: "Just call me tomorrow." By the way, who are you? ”
Today she saw that Wei Yanwu had a lot of respect for King Xuan, and it was from the bottom of her heart. This is also one of the reasons why Xiao Li didn't tell Wei Yanwu what she thought.
"He is my master, and he can be regarded as my savior." Wei Yanwu smiled self-deprecatingly as he spoke, as if he had thought of some bad memories, "If it weren't for him back then, I would still be under Dugu Yin's control now." ”
Xiao Li listened and narrowed his eyes. If it was really Wei Yanwu who said that, then why did King Xuan look at her like that today?
Wei Yanwu poured a cup of tea and took a sip: "What's wrong?" ”
Xiao Li shook his head and gave Wei Yanwu an eviction order. Perhaps, she just misunderstood King Xuan.
The cold wind blew Xiao Li's face, making Xiao Li shiver coldly. She didn't think much about it, and talked about it first.
There is no moon tonight, and the clouds are bleak. From time to time there is a cat on the roof, with bright eyes.
After the lights in Xiao Li's room went out, the cat on the roof suddenly jumped in shock. What followed was a group of masked men in black.
The sword pierced into the window, and the cold light flickered. Xiao Li had already expected someone to come, so he was dressed in a short suit and sat on the bed waiting for them.
Seeing a sword coming straight at her, Xiao Li took out a meniscus knife to block it. The two forces were at a stalemate, and a sword came on the other side. Xiao Li had no choice but to push away the people in front of him, jumped forward, and retreated into the courtyard.
It's strange to say that no one knows about such a big movement. Xiao Li felt very strange, but she couldn't think too much at this time. 168 Books
Although the meniscus knife is easy to use, there are many people in black, and they just want to kill her. This was different from Xiao Li's imagination, she thought she was just here to test it.
She had to put all her strength into it, but she used all short weapons and had many limitations. Gradually, she gained the upper hand.
Dead bodies lay on the ground, blood splattered on the grass beside them.
One choked his throat, and another fell to the ground. The last man in black looked at the corpse on the ground, frowned, and subconsciously clenched the sword in his hand.
And Xiao Li held the short knife given to her by Wei Yanwu in her hand, panting heavily, but she did not relax.
For a while, the man in black rushed towards her and stabbed Xiao Li with all his might. Xiao Li, who saw the path of the man in black clearly, took a deep breath and charged his strength to swing the short knife.
The man in black fell to the ground without making a sound, his eyes still staring at the boss.
The moon only showed a horn at this time, and in the faint moonlight, Xiao Li's straight figure could be vaguely seen.
Blood splattered on her face, and her eyes were full of ferocity.
"Wow!"
A young male voice sounded on the side, and Xiao Li was naturally attracted by this voice, and his eyes turned to the place where the sound originated.
A teenage boy in a cyan robe who was not very tall was watching all this at the door of Bixuan Hall.
The boy trotted in, and Xiao Li also saw the boy's appearance clearly.
Thick eyebrows and big eyes, high nose bridge, deep eye sockets, skin like mutton fat jade. If it weren't for some of his characteristics like a boy, Xiao Li would have thought of him as a girl.
"Are you a saint?" The boy approached, but did not dare to speak too loudly, and there was a temptation in his eyes.
Xiao Li wiped the blood on his face with his sleeve to make himself look not so scary: "Sort of." ”
The boy took another step closer and began to circle around Xiao Li, muttering quietly over and over again.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Li wiped the short knife again, and looked at the strange boy with raised eyebrows.
The boy did not panic when he saw such a large-scale massacre, and he could still stand in front of her and talk casually.
"You killed all these people?" The boy suddenly asked, blinking his eyes.
Xiao Li didn't speak, found a stool to sit down, and nodded. Killing people was really physical work, and a dozen people exhausted her to death.
The boy cautiously bypassed the corpse, and also found a place to sit down next to Xiao Li: "Sister Holy Maiden, can you teach me?" ”
Xiao Li didn't understand, looked at the little boy and said puzzledly: "What to teach you?" ”
"Kill." The boy's eyes were full of sincerity.
Xiao Li saw that this boy had an extraordinary bearing, he should be a member of the royal family, how could he want to learn to kill?
The boy saw that Xiao Li had been frowning and did not speak, so he began to explain the reason: "Actually, I am bored every day, Grandpa Xuan said that you can only get out of the palace if you go to the battlefield to kill the enemy." I ......"
Xiao Li looked at the boy and couldn't help but smile: "What's your name?" ”
"Eternal Day"
Eternal day, always day, always light. May he live in the light forever, as his name suggests.
But this seems unlikely, living in the royal family, destined to fight for power. Even if you don't have an idea, you have to be implicated.
"Do assassinations often happen in the palace? Why is there such a big commotion, and no one has come yet? Xiao Li raised his eyebrows and asked.
Yong Tian supported his chin with both hands and looked at Xiao Li sideways: "Bixuan Hall is in the most remote place in the palace, I just happened to wander here, and I came in to take a look when I found that the guards and palace maids at the door were all lying on the ground." ”
Xiao Li directly determined that these people must have been sent by King Xuan, and King Xuan must have a problem. Xiao Li continued to chat with Yong Day, wanting to know more.
With Yong Day, Xiao Li learned that King Yousheng of Western Liang was just a puppet, and it was the King of Xuan - Ouyang Xuan who was in power in the end.
But this is what Xiao Li expected, as for this Yong Day, he is Yousheng's brother. Because of the ancestors, Xiliang only established a female emperor, so men could not inherit the throne. This is the reason why Yong Day is so boring, there is nothing to do all day.
Although the West Beam looks calm on the surface. But in private, there is an undercurrent, and the major forces are vying for power. The biggest one is Ouyang Feng, the king of Cheng, who has always wanted to ascend to the throne.
"Holy sister, be careful!" Yong Sun suddenly remembered something and said eagerly.
Xiao Li didn't know what Yong Tian meant: "Why should I be careful? ”
"The power of the Holy Maiden is very strong, everyone wants to get the holy relics, and tonight is just a temptation." Yongday's eyes are no longer innocent, but cold and silent.
Xiao Li raised his right hand, and a green bracelet was revealed. Just because of a bracelet, they're going to kill her?
Although Xiao Li didn't know what the bracelet was for, he was still wary.
