Chapter 53: Assassins are on the Rise!
In the cold winter night, it was supposed to be the time when everything went to sleep, and even the reckless guards who were usually extremely energetic and conscientious were defeated in such cold weather, and they were lazy one after another.
At this moment, a group of black shadows took advantage of the unobstructed moment to cross the high wall and enter the Mongolian Mansion, and they easily shuttled through the Mongolian Mansion, as if they were in a no-man's land.
At this time, Meng Tian, who was originally asleep in Tianling Courtyard, seemed to feel something, suddenly opened his eyes, glanced in the direction of the window, thought for a while, and then looked at Xiao Ling lying in the crook of his arm, hesitated for a while and gently removed her head.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Ling was dazed and dissatisfied that she had been woken up by Meng Tian's movements just now, and arched into his warm embrace, she was very afraid of the cold, where was the warm weather like this, and where did it go!
Meng Tian patted Xiao Ling lightly on the back, although he didn't want her to be frightened, but in the current situation, if he didn't explain the matter clearly, he was afraid that Xiao Ling would not let him out, and if something really happened at that time, it would be too late to regret it.
"Girl, there seems to be a situation outside, I'll go out and take a look, don't move around in the house!" Meng Tian whispered in Xiao Ling's ear.
As soon as Xiao Ling heard the sleepy worm, he immediately flew away, raised his head from Meng Tian's arms, looked at Meng Tian with a frightened expression, and asked, "What's the situation?" Is something going on? ”
Don't blame Xiao Ling for having such a reaction, don't those TV series always play some assassins who come out in the middle of the night to assassinate? Although I haven't encountered them in the past few years, it doesn't mean that they don't exist, and now when I heard Meng Tian say this, my nerves immediately jumped up, and I was very worried.
"It's going to be nothing, don't worry I'll go out and have a look, I'll be back soon!" Meng Tian got up and dressed himself while comforting Xiao Ling, and habitually folded the quilt for Xiao Ling.
But before Meng Tian could take a step, the outside of the house suddenly began to become noisy, and after a while, there was a loud shout: "There are assassins, there are assassins......
Xiao Ling saw that his worries came out, and he sat up from the bed at once, Meng Tian saw that Xiao Ling's reaction was so big, and he didn't feel at ease to go out like this, so he immediately turned back and sat on the edge of the bed, held Xiao Ling's little hand, which had begun to become cold, and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, you stay here obediently and don't move, I'll be back soon." ”
"Tuk Tuk Tuk ......" Meng Tian had just finished saying his words when there was a knock on the door, Meng Tian immediately guarded Xiao Ling behind him vigilantly, looked at the door with a defensive face and asked, "Who?" ”
"Childe, Madame is a slave!" Ah Jing's voice came from outside the door, which completely eliminated Meng Tian's defense, glanced at Xiao Ling and said, "Come in!" ”
"Childe, are you all right?" Ah Jing asked anxiously as soon as she entered the door, her hair and clothes were a little messy at this time, and at a glance, she knew that she had just been woken up because of the movement outside.
"It's okay outside, what's going on outside?" Now Meng Tian is anxious to know the situation outside, so that he can make further judgments, in case things develop to the point of no return.
"There doesn't seem to be any movement in Tianling Courtyard and East Courtyard, but there is chaos in the front yard, and it is estimated that those assassins are coming towards the front yard!" Ah Jing seriously told Meng Tian what he knew, and also said some of his analysis of the current situation.
"Ah Jing, you accompany Madame here, protect her, I'll go to the front yard now!" When Meng Tian heard this, he immediately stood up and instructed Ah Jing, and after speaking, he said to Xiao Ling: "Girl, you stay in Tianling Courtyard with Ah Jing, I am going to go to the front yard to have a look now." ”
Xiao Ling knew that he should not be able to stop Meng Tian at this time, and the only thing he could do in such a situation was to let Meng Tian feel at ease to do what he wanted to do without worries: "You can go with confidence, be careful, I will protect myself, and I will definitely not let myself get hurt!" ”
Meng Tian nodded and left with confidence, after Meng Tian left, Xiao Ling did not feel the slightest sleep, and got up after being served by Ah Jing, although she was worried about Meng Tian, but she knew that what she could do at this time was to listen to Meng Tian's words and stay in Tianling Courtyard obediently, so as not to cause him trouble.
The sound of fighting outside the house is getting clearer and clearer, Xiao Ling stands in front of the window with a nervous heart, anxiously looking in the direction of the front yard, where it is now brightly lit, and from time to time Xiao Ling can still see a few black shadows flying up.
Although she knew that Meng Tian was capable, Xiao Ling still couldn't help but worry about whether he would be injured in this chaotic fight, and the place that was close at hand already contained all her expectations at this time.
I don't know how long it took, the sound of fighting in the front yard gradually weakened, and after a while, the guards of the Mongolian Mansion began to carry torches to shuttle throughout the Mongolian Mansion, and some began to come in the direction of Tianling Courtyard, and they didn't know what was going on, so they wanted to go out to find out.
But Xiao Ling didn't have a chance to walk out of the room before he was stopped by Ah Jing: "Madam, you haven't been completely caught at this moment, it's still very dangerous outside, you can't go out rashly!" ”
"I want to know what's going on out there, and if I don't know, I'm not at ease!" Xiao Ling's whole heart is hanging now, if she doesn't go out to find out about the situation outside, I'm afraid she will be worried to death!
"Then you just stay here and don't move, I'll go out and have a look!" Ah Jing knew Xiao Ling's stubborn temper, and she had been hiding here with Xiao Ling all the time and wanted to know the situation outside so that she could make the next move, so she proposed such a compromise in a timely manner.
Xiao Ling had no choice but to nod and agree to Ah Jing's proposal, she knew that it was impossible for Ah Jing's loyalty to Meng Tian to let her out, if they were back down, they didn't know what would happen, and now this was the only way to solve the problem of wanting to know what was going on outside.
Ah Jing went out for only a short time, but Xiao Ling felt that he had been out for several hours, and he was very worried in his heart, and the whole person began to walk around the house uneasily, hoping to relieve a little anxiety in his heart!
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of a heavy object falling behind Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling immediately turned around and looked in the direction of the sound, and found that he had not had time to close the window, and there was a black shadow lying under it.
Obviously knew that he was the cause of the chaos in the entire Mongolian Mansion, but at this time, Xiao Ling was extremely sympathetic to him, and he should have screamed to the guards who were moving outside to catch him, but she couldn't scream anymore, but slowly and cautiously leaned towards the black shadow.
Just when Xiao Ling approached the black shadow with an uneasy heart, the black shadow that was lying motionless on the ground suddenly jumped up, and before Xiao Ling could react, a bright knife was already on her neck.
Xiao Ling was so frightened that she was about to scream, but her big palm was blocked in time on her mouth before she had time to make a sound, and at the same time, a cold and childish voice that couldn't be concealed came into her ears: "If you don't want to die, it's better not to make a sound, otherwise don't blame my knife for not having long eyes!" ”
At this time, Xiao Ling's mind floated through "self-inflicted", "Heaven can still be evil, self-inflicted evil cannot live"...... These famous sentences of experience that have been passed down by the ancients for thousands of years, and at the same time, there are also "those who know the times are junjie", and Xiao Ling nodded obediently due to the unfavorable situation in front of him.
After receiving Xiao Ling's assurance, the black shadow relieved himself and let go of the palm covering Xiao Ling's mouth, but after all, he was an outlaw, and it was impossible for him to completely trust Xiao Ling, a stranger, so the knife on her neck did not mean to put it down in the slightest.
"Well, I promised you wouldn't scream, can you put the knife down!" The two of them held for a while, and Xiao Ling finally couldn't help but open his mouth to discuss with him, it really doesn't feel good to have such a dangerous item on his own vital point, and if he is not careful, he may die!
"Less nonsense, don't you think I don't know what your idea is? As soon as I let you go, don't you shout for the whole Mongol Mansion to come and arrest me? "The black shadow is extremely distrustful of Xiao Ling, and her proposal is not accepted at all.
Xiao Ling didn't know that this man would have such a sense of trust, he was so sincere, he even doubted himself, so he had to find another way: "I'm tired of squatting, you will be uncomfortable like this!" Why don't we stand up! ”
Squatting Xiao Ling may not have the slightest ability to fight back against him, but if he stands up, it may not be!
The black shadow listened to Xiao Ling's words and was silent for a while, probably measuring the feasibility of Xiao Ling's proposal, but just when Xiao Ling almost thought that he would not agree to himself, he suddenly opened his mouth: "Get up, but don't play any tricks on me!" ”
"Good, good!" Xiao Ling nodded hurriedly to show his determination, afraid that he would not believe it.
Then Xiao Ling stood together cautiously under his command, probably because the action affected the wound on his arm, the man's arm couldn't help shaking, and the knife was a little farther away from Xiao Ling's neck, Xiao Ling saw the opportunity, and suddenly pinched the man's wrist The knife fell to the ground, and Xiao Ling quickly turned away from the man.
"You ......" The woman obviously didn't expect Xiao Ling to make such a move suddenly, covering her injured arm and looking at Xiao Ling who was far away from her, but before she said a word, there was no follow-up, and the only eyes that were covered by the black cloth were full of surprise and disbelief!
Just when Xiao Ling decided not to do anything for himself and was about to scream, the man suddenly lifted the black cloth on his face and shouted at Xiao Ling in surprise: "Sister Xiao Ling! ”
(Hey, hey!) The question is, who is this man???? )
