Chapter 31: Plum Wood
Li Zimu left the palace and began to look for Gu Xiaoyi in a large area of the capital, but Gu Xiaoyi had not yet discovered the arrival of danger.
Jin Bai's injuries were finally healed, and he began to work on a plan to assassinate Liu Tang.
"We can intercept and kill Liu Tang on his way down, and the two of us will definitely succeed if we join forces." Xiao Yi suggested.
"No, there are many people on the way down to the court, and he will definitely bring a large number of guards, I'm afraid that the two of us won't be able to deal with it."
"Otherwise. You enter the palace again. ”
Jin Bai made a gesture of holding his forehead.
"I found out that the selection of the strongest killer group does not depend on IQ."
"What do you mean, think for yourself, I'll be kind enough to help you." Xiaoyi heard that Jinbai was disgusted with his stupidity.
"No, I just made a slip of the tongue, don't be angry. But I just assassinated Wang Qingfu in the palace some time ago, and I was injured. Now the guards in the palace will definitely increase a lot more than before, I have to enter the palace again, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out. ”
"I'll just say that, okay. It's not early, you rest, I'll go to the room. As soon as Xiao Yi wanted to get up and leave, Jin Bai suddenly heard a trace of movement outside the door, and he grabbed Xiao Yi's arm.
"Don't move." Then he made a silent motion, turned and drew his sword, and walked out the door.
As soon as he opened the door, a sword slashed at him, and Jin Bai hurriedly dodged and raised his sword to fight back.
Xiaoyi also went out, and when she saw the person coming clearly, Jinbai stopped.
The person who came was Li Zimu.
"Gu Xiaoyi, you are really a traitor. You actually helped the thieves assassinate the people in the palace, you should die. ”
After speaking, Li Zimu's sword blade slashed towards Gu Xiaoyi, and Jin Bai raised his sword to block it.
"It's between us, I'll do it myself." After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he picked up his sword and motioned to Jin Bai for him to stand back. Jin Bai nodded slightly and took a step back.
Xiaoyi stepped forward to fight, and the two started a new battle.
Li Zimu seemed to be attacking quickly, but Gu Xiaoyi was almost fatal. If it weren't for Li Zimu's eagerness, I'm afraid he would have become a ghost under Gu Xiaoyi's sword.
Li Zimu probed the sword to pick flowers, Gu Xiaoyi flashed back, and with a sword, Li Zimu retreated several steps.
She started to attack again, and Gu Xiaoyi also began to attack. After a few blows, Li Zimu was knocked down, and she flew up and kicked Li Zimu in the chest, and she lay on the ground with a sword on her neck.
Li Zimu sneered.
"Gu Xiaoyi, you are not a good student who is the leader, and the leader who loses is the most important to you. Do it. With that, she closed her eyes and prepared to die.
"Li Zimu, are you willing to be a dog for the rest of your life? In the end, I didn't betray anyone, I just chose to live for myself. ”
"Oh, excuse, if there is no faucet, you and I are afraid that we would have starved to death on the streets."
"I'd rather starve to death on the street than suffer those, as someone else's dog."
"I failed two missions, and I don't have the face to go back and see the dragon again." As he spoke, Li Zimu bit off the poison hidden in his mouth.
She failed on two missions, and even if she returned, she would die. She had already thought that if she was really defeated by Gu Xiaoyi, then she would bite the poison herself and die, and she would never die under the sword of a traitor.
"Well, what are you doing?" Xiaoyi hurriedly went to break Li Zimu's mouth, but the person had already lost his breath.
Jin Bai silently stroked Xiaoyi's shoulder: "Everyone has their own choice, since she chose this, then this is her life, don't blame yourself too much." ”
"I... I don't want to kill her, I don't understand why she did it? I was ready to save her, but she didn't...... Alas. ”
"Alright, let's bury her, and get out of here, it's not safe here."
"Okay."
The two buried the plum tree in the back mountain.
"Where are we going now?"
"The most dangerous place is the safest place, we go to the opposite side of Liu's mansion, and we can also observe Liu Tang's situation every day, and find the right time to kill him."
"Good. I'll go pack my things. ”
Xiaoyi and Jinbai took advantage of the slight light of the sky and lived opposite Liu Tang.
