Chapter 87: Thieves are hard to prevent

Xue Ning stopped talking, as if she was thinking about something, and said very tiredly after a while: "I'm a little tired, go and rest first, Mo Chen, brother, Hao will trouble you." ”

"Go ahead and get some rest." Xue Yi nodded, but Mo Chen looked at her silently.

Xue Ning walked out of the room and found Xiao Feng following behind her, turned around and was about to speak, but Xiao Feng took the lead and said: "I know that you are going to get sea dragon ginseng, I won't make trouble for you, I will wait for you obediently in the room." ”

"Really?" Xue Ning narrowed her eyes, expressing skepticism.

Xiao Feng nodded, "Mmmm, I can also cover for you and not let them find out that you are not there." ”

Such a well-behaved Xiao Feng, her intuition told Xue Ning that it was not normal.

However, at this time, it is important to take things and cannot be delayed longer, so Xue Ning had no choice but to say: "Then you go into the room quickly, my mother will be back soon." ”

Seeing the back of Xue Ning leaving, Xiao Feng turned around and entered the next room.

Xiao Feng sat down at the table, and after confirming that he was the only one in the room, he said in a deep voice, "Come out." ”

The white light flashed, and a black-clothed illusion appeared in the room.

Seeing by those sharp eyes, Phantom immediately knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and said, "My subordinates know their mistakes!" ”

After being silent for a long time, Xiao Feng said loudly: "If you encounter a similar situation in the future, kill!" ”

Phantom Cheng was stunned, raised his head and said, "But the Protoss stipulates that you can't kill humans in the human world. ”

"I'm the young master of the Protoss, this master, can't you still do it?" Xiao Feng snorted coldly and continued: "Besides, the Protoss also has rules that when one's life is threatened, one can be killed. ”

"But ......" Phantom Cheng said halfway through, and finally said, "My subordinates understand." ”

"It's good to understand, now that she has gone to the palace to steal the sea dragon ginseng, you can secretly answer it."

"Yes." Phantom Cheng was about to leave, but he heard the master say again: "That cloak ...... It was well giving. ”

Phantom Cheng didn't speak, and disappeared directly.

But he sighed heavily in his heart, at that time he would give her the cloak, just because he was afraid that she would freeze and fall ill and waste the master's spiritual power, but he didn't want to end up getting sick, he really did useless work.

However, it may be because of this cloak that he was spared a lesson, after all, he evacuated halfway, causing them to be in danger again, and according to the master's attention to the girl, he will definitely not be spared easily.

Speaking of which, today is the first time he has dealt with her head-on, and he found that this woman does have a lot of advantages, and the master will appreciate her, human nature.

In a secluded place at the entrance of the palace, a hook lock was thrown up the city wall a few feet high, and after a while, a small black shadow jumped down on the big tree next to the wall, put away the hook lock, and the black eyes swept contemptuously over several guards who were sticking to the palace gate, and the corners of the mouth covered under the black veil were slightly curved.

Xue Ning wanted to come in from the palace gate openly, but after thinking about it, it was so late, and it seemed very abrupt for her to return to the palace alone, so she climbed over the palace wall and came in, fortunately, she borrowed some clothes and equipment from Yun Jin and Ying Niang before leaving, and they could be used at this time.

A gust of wind blew, the branches and leaves rustled, the guard glanced a few times in this direction, there was not even a cat shadow, he shrank his neck back, and muttered: "Why is the weather getting colder and colder recently, is the enchantment of the Protoss about to fail?" ”

A crescent moon came out of the layers of dark clouds, under the hazy moonlight, Xue Ning jumped quickly in the palace, the recent period of wandering, she has long been familiar with the general direction of the palace, and also knows where is the weakest place in defense, this is really day and night defense, home thieves are difficult to prevent?

In a few moments, without alerting a single guard, she was already standing at the door of the Imperial Pharmacy. Looking at the courtyard wall that was not too high, Xue Ning's eyes fell on the trees outside the wall, and she rolled her eyes speechlessly, why did this ancient people like to plant trees by the wall, in order to make it easier for thieves to climb over the wall?

Jumping into the courtyard lightly, Xue Ning hesitated, this imperial pharmacy said that it was not big, but how could she find the sea dragon cucumber in a short time?

At this time, there was a bright light slowly approaching not far away, Xue Ning dodged and hid behind a big stone, a person wearing a eunuch uniform walked in front of her with a lantern, Xue Ning's hand reached to her waist, and then her eyes turned wide, and a plan hit her heart.

"Bang bang bang!" Moments later, there was a knock on the door of the Imperial Pharmacy Director's room.

The eunuch in charge rubbed his sleepy eyes, and while tying his belt, he shouted: "Come on, come on, don't let people sleep in the middle of the night." ”

When he opened the door, he saw a little eunuch with a lantern standing outside, with the brim of his hat lowered, and his face could not be seen clearly in the dark, but when he saw the waist card he handed over, his spirit shook suddenly, and he said flatteringly: "It turned out that it was sent by Concubine Ru, what is the matter?" ”

"Niangniang said that the emperor just dreamed that the sea dragon ginseng was stolen, and sent our family to take a look." The little eunuch's words made the chief eunuch's face change drastically, and he quickly denied it: "This is ...... How is this possible, we also confirmed it before going to bed. ”

"Our family naturally believes in the father-in-law, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, and everyone is worry-free."

"That's natural, father-in-law, please come with us." The eunuch in charge did not doubt him, and hurriedly led the way, but he didn't notice that the person behind him slowly raised his head, his delicate little face flashed, and the scar on his face was so faint that he could barely see it in the dim light.

I thought that the thousand-year-old sea dragon ginseng should be a very big one, but what was displayed in front of Xue Ning's eyes was a small ginseng with the length and thickness of a ring finger, Xue Ning couldn't help but glance at the eunuch in charge who was carefully holding the box, thinking that it wouldn't be a trick on her, right?

The eunuch obviously didn't know what Xue Ning was thinking, so he just smiled and said, "Father-in-law, the things are here." As he spoke, he moved the box closer to Xue Ning to make sure she could see it clearly.

"Hehe, it's the first time we've seen such a baby, can my father-in-law let me touch it and get a little fairy?" Xue Ning looked at the dragon ginseng with straight eyes, and looked salivating.

The eunuch in charge naturally knows his psychology, since he is a person from Dexin Palace, this sycophant has to be filmed, seeing this, he smiled knowingly, and generously stuffed the box into Xue Ning's hand: "Here, but you can only smell it, but you can't touch it." ”

Xue Ning nodded and carefully held the box, looked left and right, with a look of envy and jealousy, and then greedily lowered her head and took a deep breath towards the box, and as if she was afraid that she would be reluctant, she quickly covered the lid with a "snap", closed her eyes, and looked intoxicated.

The chief eunuch looked at her enjoyment, and couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker, "Hehe, our family also has to smell it every night, we are not blessed to enjoy it, and it is good to be able to inhale the fairy qi inside." ”

"That's right, that's right......" Xue Ning smiled with a satisfied face, and handed back the box that had been covered with the lid in his hand to the eunuch in charge, "Father-in-law, hurry up and lock it, our family will go back to give the emperor and Niangniang a life, there is a father-in-law who keeps it so carefully, tell him to put a hundred hearts." ”

"Thank you, my father-in-law has the opportunity to give our family a few kind words in front of the emperor and Concubine Ru." The old face of the eunuch in charge turned into a flower, he hurriedly locked the box, solemnly put it back in the secret compartment and locked it, and personally sent Xue Ning to the door.

Watching the door of the imperial pharmacy slowly close, Xue Ning's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, her sleeves shook, and a small ginseng appeared in her palm, isn't it the sea dragon ginseng that has been locked several times by the eunuch in charge.

Behind a certain stone in the courtyard, a little eunuch who had been stripped of his middle clothes was lying curled up, perhaps afraid that he would be cold, and his body was covered with a pile of undried herb branches.

Xue Ning hooked her lips and smiled, hehe, when the thing is in her hands, how can there be a reason to go back completely?

It turned out that the moment she closed the box, the dragon ginseng in the box was unknowingly put into her sleeve, how could the clumsy-eyed eunuch find it.

Hey, mission accomplished, call it a day and save people.

Turn around and run into the darkness.

But before she had run a few steps, a sharp cry like a pig came from the imperial pharmacy behind her: "Someone, there are assassins, there are assassins!" ”

The palace was silent in the middle of the night, and the sound was like a thunderclap, and the entire palace suddenly boiled.

Xue Ning secretly cursed and didn't hide the little eunuch well, she must have been discovered by the eunuch in charge when she went back.

The lights were suddenly on, and the footsteps were chaotic, and Xue Ning could no longer hide in the dark, so she could only walk quickly with her head bowed through this eunuch suit.

"Stop, which palace are you from?" A loud voice came from behind Xue Ning, Xue Ning's body stiffened, stopped, but did not dare to turn around.

It's really a narrow road, and this voice turned out to be Lin Yang's!

"Ask you, turn around." Lin Yang led a team of guards to walk up from behind, his face was full of coldness, and seeing that she didn't turn around, he drew his saber with a "swish".

But Xue Ning still didn't turn around, feeling that the distance was almost there, and her sleeves suddenly flickered, and a stream of white powder suddenly flew out.

"Be careful, stand back." Lin Yang covered his mouth and shouted, but the guards around him had already fallen a few times, looking at the figure that was leaving quickly in the white mist, his palm flew up, and a hidden weapon flew out.

"Poof!" Xue Ning only felt a piercing pain on her left shoulder, stumbled under her feet, but still gritted her teeth, jumped over several rockeries, ran over several stone bridges, and finally climbed into a courtyard, and there was finally no sound of chasing soldiers behind.

But at this moment, Xue Ning was already drenched in cold sweat and covered in blood. She leaned against the corner of the wall sweating profusely, turned her right hand and held the hidden weapon on her left shoulder, gritted her teeth, and pulled it out.

She almost fainted in pain, and took several deep breaths before she came to her senses.

Looking down at the blood-stained weapon in his hand, it was a dart, although it was not poisonous, but it had barbs, and there was flesh on the barbs, it was her flesh.

Xue Ning smiled bitterly and put away the hidden weapon, she still had to keep it for revenge.

The wound on her shoulder could not be bandaged, she could only let the blood flow down her arm to the ground, she forced herself to stand up, and walked forward step by step.

I don't know where it is, it's a mess outside, it's still silent here, and there isn't even a guard, so it can't be a cold palace or something.
