Chapter 350: Assassin
"How do you know that I am the Peerless County Lord?" The two voices sounded at the same time, Wu Liang looked sideways at Chu Nian, who was looking at Chu Nian, and threw the black-clothed man to the ground with a cold snort.
The body of the man in black smashed to the ground, making a loud "bang", accompanied by his scream, he raised his eyes and glared at Wu Liang with disgust, and then turned to look at Chu Nian with attentive eyes: "I have followed the Wushuang County Lord when he went to Chunyang City, and later, I heard that you were missing in Prince Lu's Mansion, and I was worried for a while, but later, when you and your group left Prince Lu's Mansion, I could see that it was you." ”
The man in black has a delicate face, willow eyebrows, red lips, and looks like a woman, but he speaks in a man's voice, and there is an obvious Adam's apple on his throat.
There were two pear vortices at the corners of his mouth when he spoke, and when he laughed at the moment, his watery eyes were slightly bent, and he looked very pure and harmless.
Chu Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, "The second question, why did you arrest him?" ”
She looked at Li Le with an embarrassed face on the side, and the man in black then looked sideways, stunned, and scratched his head embarrassedly and laughed, "Because he looks so bullying......"
The medicine king spoke at the right time, "That's it, lady, this person is also honest when he looks at it, it's better to take it with you first, if you are afraid that he is a spy, just watch him a little more closely and don't ask him to report to the enemy." ”
Seeing that the Medicine King spoke, Wu Liang, who was originally still indignant, was speechless at this moment, Chu Nian frowned, and then nodded lightly, "It's okay, then listen to Lord Medicine King, this person, I'll leave it to you." ”
With that, she got up and walked towards the door, Tao Jinyan glanced at the man in black on the ground, and then followed suit.
"I wanted to ask just now, what do you have to say to me?"
In the corridor, Chu Nian's figure in front of her suddenly stopped, she looked back at Tao Jinyan, and there seemed to be no mood fluctuations in her watery eyes.
Peach Blossom Eyes moved away from her face and stopped elsewhere, and a stiff smile appeared on the corner of Peach Jinyan's mouth, "I got the best plum wine at the second junior downstairs, do you want to try it together?" ”
Chu Nian twisted his brows, and at the end, nodded slightly.
"Okay."
The moon was in the treetops, the town was finally quiet for a few minutes, although it was still brightly lit, but the pedestrians on the street were only three or two of them left to form together, and the vendors put away their stalls, obviously preparing to go home for a hot meal, but no one noticed that there were two plain white figures on the roof, facing the bright moon not far away, squatting and sitting on the roof.
Between them was a square table, on which was a dish of side dishes and a wine jar, which was fragrant and spicy, but it was not plum wine, but more like an aged daughter red.
The afterglow of the moonlight fell on the outline of Tao Jinyan, and he looked sideways slightly, his long eyelashes covering a pair of black and white eyes.
"Come, Chu Nian, I salute you for this first cup."
Chu Nian turned her head sideways, looked at Tao Jinyan who was smiling in front of her with complicated eyes, picked up another wine cup, and touched it with the wine cup held by Tao Jinyan, and then drank the wine in the cup, which was spicy and spicy, and her face was distorted for a moment.
Seeing this appearance, Tao Jinyan couldn't help laughing, he reached out and wanted to pat Chu Nian's shoulder, but he retracted his hand as if he remembered something halfway, and slowly drank the daughter red in the cup in his small gulp, and then pursed his thin lips and said, "You...... But you're mad at me? ”
On the other side that Tao Jinyan couldn't see, Chu Nianzheng frowned slightly, her red lips pursed, "No, why should I be angry with you?" ”
"You ......" he took a careful breath, "You don't blame me for killing Bai Mo?" ”
Chu Nian didn't speak, she stuffed a small piece of meat into her mouth, and a smell of blood quickly permeated the entire mouth, she frowned and spit out the meat, before she said, "Is there something wrong with this meat?" ”
Tao Jinyan nodded and glanced at the plate full of cured meat, but did not speak, under the moonlight, a pair of peach blossom eyes looked more and more lonely.
At this time, Chu Nian's subordinates' movements suddenly stopped, and she grabbed Tao Jinyan's sleeve with her bare hands, "Don't move." ”
Tao Jinyan finally realized that something was wrong, he frowned slightly and looked around, the lights on the street downstairs had all gone out at some point, and the outline of something seemed to be lurking in the darkness.
Suddenly, a loud bang came from under their feet, followed by Wu Liang's roar, "Let go of my senior brother!" ”
Chu Nian and Tao Jinyan glanced at each other, and their bodies jumped off the roof in a flash.
There was already chaos in the inn, a group of people who came out of nowhere were surrounding the room of the master and apprentice of the Medicine King Valley, and the shopkeeper downstairs was hiding under the table with his head in his hands, and saw two men and women who seemed to be masters falling from the roof, so he asked for help...... Have I seen you anywhere? ”
Chu Nian overturned Xiao Er who was blocking the way and went straight to the second floor, and the group of black-clothed people who were surrounding the door of the Master and Apprentice of the Medicine King Valley suddenly turned their eyes to look at Chu Nian and Tao Jinyan.
There were more than a dozen men in black, all of whom had a scimitar, and the scimitar of this twisted shape was so sharp that it could pierce the strongest buffalo skin with one sword, which seemed to be only found in barbarian lands.
"The barbarians have infiltrated it?" Chu Nian frowned slightly, at this stall, the black-clothed man closest to Chu Nian and Tao Jinyan had already attacked.
Tao Jinyan split the man in black with his hands, and another person attacked with a scimitar, and at this stall, there was a movement from the door, and the "corpses" of a group of men in black were thrown out of the door.
Wu Liang's voice then sounded: "If you don't even do antidote measures, you dare to come to our master and apprentice?" Are you underestimating the Medicine King Valley too much? ”
Chu Nian and Tao Jinyan, who had just stunned the two black-clothed people, saw Wu Liang who was unscathed, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, at this time, the medicine king came out of it, glanced at Chu Nian and Tao Jinyan, waved his sleeves, and the poisonous powder invaded the air with the wind, and the remaining black-clothed people suddenly fell to the ground.
Chu Nian and Tao Jinyan covered their mouths and noses, walked to the Medicine King's master and apprentice, and poked their heads into the room to look inside, "Is Li Le okay?" ”
Wu Liang looked a little embarrassed, he stubbornly glanced back, "Senior brother is fine." ”
Tao Jinyan raised his eyebrows, glanced at the embarrassed Wu Liang meaninglessly, and then saw a young man in coarse linen lying on Wu Liang's legs, at this moment the young man seemed to have a scimitar stuck in his back, and the blood flowed down the wound to the floor, bright red.
At this moment, Li Le on the couch also turned red, "This kid, I told him that my leg is unconscious, even if it hurts, it won't hurt, he doesn't believe it, he has to block the knife for me." ”
Chu Nian frowned, and saw the Medicine King walk in from outside, "Ah Liang thought that this kid was going to hurt Li Le, but he didn't expect it...... Please help Mr. Jinyan put this child on the couch, and I will help him heal. ”
"Where did Ah Liang go?" Seeing Tao Jinyan carefully placed on another couch in the room, Li Le turned his eyes to look out of the door as if he remembered something, but at this moment, there was only a group of "corpses" of people in black outside the door, and other than that, there was no one.
With the help of Tao Jinyan, the medicine king carefully unwrapped the clothes behind the young man's body, "It's okay, tell him to think about it, this kid is thin-skinned, but his mind is pure, and he will figure it out after a while." ”
Hearing this, Li Le had no choice but to nod, and at this point, Chu Niancai frowned and looked at the man in black outside the door, "The people of the barbarian clan received the news so quickly, isn't it that Xi Chu is also fast?" ”
At this moment, Tao Jinyan and the medicine king's subordinates were obviously stunned, the two glanced at each other, and carefully put back the clothes that had accidentally lifted too much, and the medicine king's subordinates did not stop, and took the knife off the young man's back again, and the blood immediately stopped.
It wasn't until the Medicine King treated the young man's wound that Tao Jinyan came over from the side of the collapse, glanced at the couch with a blank look, and then said, "Isn't the Empress of Xichu already a friend of you and Ming Xiu?" If you talk to her, Xichu's trouble will be avoided. ”
Chu Nian couldn't cry or laugh, "Do you think the princess counts when she speaks?" Then do you think Ming Xiu is now the master of Da Liang? ”
Tao Jinyan was speechless, and after a while, he scratched his head and laughed, and said, "Okay, okay, you're right, so what should we do now?" ”
With dead bodies all over the ground, Chu Nian glanced back at Tao Jinyan, who seemed to be more and more stupid since Bai Mo's death, "It's better to go back to Beijing quickly, enter the mountain tomorrow, return Ah Mo's body to Master Bai first, and then sincerely apologize when the dust settles......"
Chu Nian touched her nose, now the situation doesn't know when the dust will settle, besides, it seems that she has more things to do after the dust settles now.
"What's the use of going back to Beijing? You are so powerful that the barbarians and Western Chu don't even dare to enter the Daliang capital? ”
Chu Nian glanced back at Li Le, who was on the couch with his eyes closed, and was about to put a quilt on the young man's body after helping the young man deal with his wounds: "At least in the capital, they are the forces under Da Liang, since they are the forces under Da Liang, if the barbarians and Western Chu want to move them, they still have to think clearly." ”
Tao Jinyan bit his lower lip and didn't speak, at this point, Wu Liangcai came in from the outside, "Then, how is that kid?" ”
The Medicine King glanced at him with disgust, "He has been taken care of by you for the past few days, but he also blocked a knife for your senior brother." ”
Wu Liang lowered his head, but refused to look up and take a second look, honestly bypassed the Medicine King and the others, walked to Li Le's side, and secretly aggrieved.
Tao Jinyan looked back at the man who seemed to be unconscious on the couch with a strange expression, "I suggest that we don't take him too far." ”
The Medicine King took over the words in time with a complicated face, "The old man thinks it is the same, it is better to put him under this mountain tomorrow, let him recuperate here, and let him leave on his own after his injuries are healed." ”
Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, just now the medicine king also said that this child wanted Wu Liang to take care of it, but he changed his words at this time? What did these two men know? Why hide it from her?
At this stall, the exclamation of the shopkeeper came from outside the door again, "Guest, guest, there is actually a ...... in your carriage Yes! Dead man! ”
Everyone in the room frowned, all remembering Bai Mo's body still in the carriage, Tao Jinyan took the lead to walk out of the door, with a serious face, "I'll take a look, you are here, so as not to fall into the trap of diverting the tiger from the mountain." ”
Chu Nian nodded, and couldn't help worrying in his heart, could it be that these people didn't come for the people of the Medicine King Valley?
