090 Attacked on the way back
Seeing that Yue Cangli's eyes began to redden, thinking that she was going to cry, Shangguan Wuji was stunned for a moment, his heart suddenly softened, and he explained gently, "Hey, don't look at this meal, although it is not delicious, it is a special medicinal diet for your physical symptoms." The four dishes and one soup on this table cost 10,000 taels of gold. ”
It's rare to explain a certain decision in this life, and even Shangguan Wuji himself didn't expect it, he just didn't want to see her look like she was going to cry.
His hand clenched the dish hard, and his gaze was a little deep.
Yue Cangli was frightened, staring at the four dishes, each dish was only a dozen bites, just such a thing, dare to ask for ten thousand taels, or gold?!
The savage cook is poor and crazy, Shangguan Wuji is panicked with more money, and her worldview is caught by the door!
Shangguan Wuji fed the vegetables to her mouth, "Come, eat it, it's good for your health." ”
Yue Cangli stared at the dish, as if he had a deep hatred, and finally opened his mouth to eat it, and then continued to tear his eyes, so bitter!
She comforted herself, this is ten thousand taels of gold in exchange, even a lump of Xiang, she will also eat it.
After half an hour, she finally finished a table of excellent food.
Yue Cangli burst into tears, admiring himself infinitely, and he could actually hold back and eat. If this were to be put to the last days, she promised to raze the place to the ground. Such an unpalatable meal does not deserve to survive and should be destroyed.
Shangguan Wuji took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the residue on the corner of Yue Cangli's mouth, the whole process was elegant, warm and personable, Yue Cangli was stunned the whole time, until Shangguan Wuji got up and led her back, she slowly came back to her senses, and her face was a little red.
After nightfall, Sangyan City will hang air dead wind lanterns at the door of the store, through the dim light, the flow of people on the road is more than during the day, especially the fireworks streets and alleys are full of people.
Shangguan Wuji walked slowly in front, Yue Cangli followed behind and walked slowly to eat, and thought to himself, no, isn't this really a walk!
Yue Cangli instantly looked at Shangguan Wuji in front of him with infinite resentment, thinking that it was best for him to fall on his heels, and directly throw away his personable son's appearance, to see if he lost this layer of child's skin, what was there inside......
With thoughts in his mind, he followed Shangguan Wuji slowly on the way back to the City Lord's Mansion. After passing through the fireworks alley, there is also a main street and three alleys between the city lord's mansion.
Sangyan City east and west for the street, north and south for the alley, the whole city is divided like a chessboard, the city lord's mansion is in the north of the north of the chessboard center, sitting in front of the gate facing south in the north, is the largest square in the whole city, usually open as a trading bazaar, wartime as the command center for the dispatch of troops, the north side of the square is close to the city lord's mansion, build a little general.
However, Sang Yancheng has not experienced a war for a long time, and the peaceful life of singing and dancing has worn out everyone's vigilance, including the defenders.
At least along the way, there were no patrolling defenders.
Yue Cangli's gaze gradually became cold, and he vaguely swept over the countless shadows hidden in the lights around him, and the faint murderous aura in the air always surrounded Shangguan Wuji and her.
The murderous gaze of those pairs caused her fighting nerves to beat.
If in normal times, she would have shot in her hand earlier, attack them first, kill them by surprise, and then see who is bold and fat, and actually dares to ambush her. But now, she can't control her movements, let alone attack ability.
She opened her mouth and exhaled, tried a few times, and finally let out a subtle and weak call, "Hey, uh-huh~"
Hearing his own voice, Yue Cangli trembled, Damn, what the hell is this soft and cute voice?
Shangguan Wuji heard the sound, and when he turned around, he happened to face Yue Cangli head-on, and the distance between the two was no more than a fist.
At such a close distance, she smelled a smell of mint on his body, and actually had a smell with Ling'er on the materials used to bathe herself, could it be that she used his bath items. Thinking of this, her ears instantly became hot, and her face turned red.
Shangguan Wuji was almost attached to her, naturally seeing the subtle expression on her face, he raised his hand and touched her cheek, cold and slender fingers, tracing her facial features, and finally his index finger lightly touched her lips, he smiled at her, his lips were close to her ear, "Shhh, don't speak." ”
A cold arrow shot from the oblique shadow on the roof of a house half a street behind him, judging by the angle, it would directly hit Shangguan Wuji's heart.
At the same time, several figures flashed in front of and behind the street, waving their swords and rushing towards Shangguan Wuji.
Yue Cangli's eyes changed suddenly, and he wanted to warn Shangguan Wuji, but he pressed his lips and couldn't pronounce it, so he could only see the cold arrow approaching, Yue Cangli's eyes flashed red, and he wanted to take action.
At this moment, a black shadow appeared, flashed behind Shangguan Wuji, and slashed off the cold arrow with a sword, the black shadow looked at Yue Cangli with feeling, Yue Cangli's reddened eyes disappeared in an instant, and looked at the black shadow defiantly, but this black shadow was the Qin Zhan beside Shangguan Wuji.
A low whistle came from Qin Zhan's mouth, and there was a burst of swords and swords in all directions, and after a while, more than a dozen black-clothed people grabbed the corpses of seventeen or eighteen dead people in different costumes from the corners of the streets and alleys, eaves, and houses, and threw them on the ground one by one to make a pile, Qin Zhan looked around, and turned back to Shangguan Wuji to report, "Childe, all of them died of poison, and there was no life." ”
Shangguan Wuji turned around and looked at the corpses on the ground, his eyes were condensed, and his voice was cold and ruthless, "Do your best to search for their comrades, focus on the caravans that have entered the city in the past few days, tie their corpses to the stakes outside the city and feed them to the wild wolves, so that the whole city can watch the ceremony." ”
"Yes. Qin Zhan responded, glanced at Yue Cangli again, and then cleaned up the battlefield with his companions and pulled the corpse away.
Shangguan Wuji turned around to look at Yue Cangli, and saw that her eyes were blurred as if she was distracted, and subconsciously reached out to touch her forehead, and when she turned around and glared at him, although his expression was cold, his tone was gentle, "Come back with me, it's time to rest." ”
Shangguan Wuji turned around and walked forward, hearing the footsteps followed by Yue Cangli, his heart was soothed, as if there was something that made him unconsciously pay attention to her and pay attention to her every move, he didn't understand why, but he didn't reject it in his heart.
Walking up the main road again, I saw a group of patrolling soldiers marching in a neat step in the distance.
Yue Cangli suddenly realized that everything just now was just a bureau set up by Shangguan Wuji, the purpose was to capture these people alive, but unfortunately it still didn't succeed.
Wrong!
With his wit, how could it be such a simple game, and it failed.
If it was her, she would arrange for the other party to attack, pretend to be injured, guide them to relax their vigilance and come closer, and when they get close to the assassination, she will take it down in one fell swoop.
According to the state of the two of them just now, she is the most suitable person to be the living target, as long as he seems to be intimate with her on the street, he can completely use her body to block the cold arrow, and then pretend to be injured and lead the enemy closer......
She thought of Qin Zhan's two projected gazes, and suddenly looked at Shangguan Wuji's back in a conscious sense.
That's how he arranged it from the beginning, he just planned to sacrifice her, and even hurt himself, in exchange for a living enemy.
However, at the last moment, he changed his mind. used his own life and death to force Qin Zhan to act in advance.
Why?
Yue Cangli looked at Shangguan Wuji's back, puzzled.
