Volume 1 The Orphan Girl in the Imperial Capital Chapter 8 A Beautiful Man Is Like a Demon
The first lantern has been hung out, and a young woman flutters down with the silk curtain, with a slender waist and charming eyes like silk, which attracts a cheering voice.
Mu Yunlan took a sip of wine slightly, her thick curly eyelashes trembled, and her bright eyes narrowed slightly.
She has been in the army for many years, and the border is bitterly cold, so she has contracted the problem of greedy for alcohol, and now she has changed her body, and she still feels hungry when she sees the wine, but she has changed her body, but the amount of wine is poor, and she feels hot and dizzy after drinking a few glasses.
The wine, the beautiful scenery, and the beautiful people are really enjoyable......
In the past, she looked handsome, and she looked good when she drank wine, but now she looks like a delicate flower, pinching the wine glass and sipping it like a cat stealing fishy food, just a splendid soft pillow for her to lie on her stomach.
On the boat not far away, the man by the window flashed his eyes, and took her comfortable appearance into his eyes, and couldn't help but reach out and take the wine jug, and when he wanted to have a drink, he remembered that he had just thrown the wine glass, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Mu Yunlan was happily tasting wine, when she suddenly heard an abnormal sound of water in her ears.
The lake is full of boats, the sound of paddles breaking the water is endless, and there is the sound of silk and bamboo, which is very noisy. But Mu Yunlan has practiced underwater kung fu for a period of time, and is particularly sensitive to the sound of people diving in the water......
There are people underwater! In the cold winter, no one is stupid enough to swim in the water at this time!
She stared down at the dark water, and saw a few strange streams of water pass by, and occasionally the dagger reflected the light of the river lamp leaking out.
It's an assassin!
"Boatman, I suddenly remembered that there was something at home, hurry to the shore, I want to get off the boat!" Mu Yunlan took out ten taels of silver and threw it over, and ordered coldly. She didn't want to be nosy.
The captain hurriedly agreed, the silver was in hand, and people left if they wanted to leave. Pushing the bamboo pole back, I suddenly felt that the pole swayed, as if it had poked something, and when I was surprised, I felt a cold neck, and I fell into the water with a plop and there was no movement.
Mu Yunlan threw away the wine glass, picked up the bamboo pole and slammed it into the water. A bright red turned over in the water, and it was impossible to see it clearly in the night without looking carefully.
"Bang bang!" Two dull voices sounded, and Mu Yunlan secretly said that it was not good, this was the sound of a boat!
The boat she was in was not far from the middle of the lake, far from the shore, and if the boat sank, it would be troublesome.
Suddenly, the lanterns hanging on the high platform in the middle of the lake exploded, and sparks flew in all directions, falling on the surrounding boats, and immediately stirring up bursts of flames. The lake was in a mess, and in a hurry, many boats collided together, huddled together and unable to move.
The sound of falling water was endless, and Mu Yunlan couldn't sit still, only trying to get closer to the building boat closest to her. It took a lot of effort to finally get to the side of the boat, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he was interrupted by the man in black who killed him out of the water.
"It's broken!" She only thought that the building ship was big and not easy to be knocked over, but she didn't think that in case this assassination was aimed at the building boat! Didn't she kill herself when she leaned over?
"Boom!"
The lower deck of the building suddenly exploded, and the sparks of wood chips exploded. At the last moment, Mu Yunlan gritted her teeth and jumped into the water.
"Whew!" After a while, Mu Yunlan dared to come out, panting and looking around, she saw a large piece of wood not far away, and hurriedly swam over to grab the edge, and took out the dagger on her body to defend herself, "It's really dangerous, I almost planted it." ”
As soon as he finished sighing, he felt his ankle grabbed suddenly. Her eyes widened, and she kicked her other foot violently, feeling the force in her ankle disappear, and quickly stepped on the water and swam towards the shore.
Before he could swim far, he felt his waist sink, and then he was hugged tightly from behind. Mu Yunlan was defenseless, she was directly taken into the water, choked on two mouthfuls of water, and only fluttered for a while to pick up the wood chips again.
Feeling that the weight behind her back was still there, she clenched the dagger and stabbed it behind her without thinking, but she was grabbed by her wrist and couldn't move.
"Let go!" Mu Yunlan looked down at the arm around her neck, her fingers were slender and distinct, with a cold chill. She lowered her head and was about to bite it, but the person behind her directly grabbed her throat.
Damn it! If it weren't for this person, she would have been out at this point.
A chuckle sounded from behind: "Hehe, it's you ......"
Hearing the familiar voice, Mu Yunlan trembled, she has always remembered this hair-making voice, isn't it the light man in the temple who almost killed her!
"You're ghosted?"
"It's fate."
Yue Jingxuan's voice was smiling, but his face was as cold as ice, he had planned to do well, but he never thought that the poison in his body would attack at this juncture, allowing him to fall into such a situation.
Mu Yunlan struggled for her wrist, she didn't move at all when she was caught, gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't want to die, let me go!" ”
Yue Jingxuan looked at the woman who was surrounded by him, and pointed a finger to forcefully unload the dagger in her hand: "So I'm relieved...... Ahem......" he said, coughing twice, and his throat was fishy.
Mu Yunlan was annoyed, but there was no way, so she just patted the plank and said, "Come here and lie on your stomach, try to swim to the shore, otherwise we will all die here." ”
The lake water is cold and biting, and if you soak like this, both of them will die.
Yue Jingxuan obediently did so, but the dagger in his hand was aimed in the direction of Mu Yunlan.
Mu Yunlan glanced at him, seeing his long hair scattered and his face pale, but still handsome and frightening, she couldn't help but snort coldly, this man is just like a water demon, when she catches the opportunity, the new hatred and old hatred will be cleared with him, and then she will pick up his water demon skin!
The situation was critical, and the two of them did not dare to delay, and struggled to row to the lake, and encountered several waves of black-clothed people along the way to intercept and kill, and the two of them worked together to solve it, and it took two quarters of an hour to touch the lake.
Mu Yunlan gasped for breath, climbed onto the shore of the lake with her sore and weak hands and feet, and the whole person was as stiff as ice, and the ice slag fell when she moved.
Looking back at the water, the water demon man was holding the shore with one hand and wanted to come up, her eyes lit up suddenly, God-given opportunity, if you don't take revenge at this time, when will you wait!
Yue Jingxuan raised his eyes violently, Han Xing's eyes pierced the night, and he looked straight at Mu Yunlan, smiling and smiling: "What are you going to do?" ”
Mu Yunlan raised the corners of her lips and smiled silently: "There is revenge, there is revenge!" As he spoke, he grabbed the man's outstretched hand and tried to lift him into the water.
Suddenly, a dagger came at her door.
Mu Yunlan dodged back, and the man had already taken the opportunity to turn over and go ashore, raising the corners of his lips and pulling his hair behind him, revealing a face as smooth as jade.
Mu Yunlan's heart jumped, picked up the dagger and left quickly, running out for a long distance before holding her chest and panting, feeling like her lungs were about to explode.
As soon as she left with her front foot, Yue Jingxuan's guard came over with her back foot: "The subordinate is guilty, please punish the master." ”
Yue Jingxuan looked at the direction Mu Yunlan left, and his phoenix eyes flashed: "Go back and get the punishment." ”
"Yes." The guards hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and someone found a cloak to put it on him.
Yue Jingxuan coughed twice, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his pale lips.
The subordinate was shocked: "Master, are you injured?" ”
"It's fine." Yue Jingxuan looked back at the lake, his eyes were extraordinarily deep, he didn't use any internal force when he was poisoned, once he used it, it would not only exacerbate the poison invasion and severe pain, but also cause uneven blood and blood churning, this time it was really a miscalculation.
