Chapter 13: Assassination

The dark clouds surged, and the world was pitch black.

Under the cover of darkness, Xiaobai and Xiaoqing quickly caught up with the fleet traveling downstream, and on the shore, Xiaoqing had already changed into a common palace maid costume, and did not hurry to move, the two first observed the boat for a while...

Half a sound, when the two of them firmly remembered the distribution of all the soldiers on the boat, as well as the range of activities of those palace maids every few minutes, at this point, Xiaobai and Xiaoqing glanced at each other wordlessly, and then, the two figures quietly dived away.

In the crown of a nearly thirty-meter-old tree, Mu Tian stared at Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing, who were treading water, approaching the fleet little by little, he didn't make a rash move, since Xiao Bai and the others wanted to try to assassinate, then just let them go.

His eyes were also tightly locked on the ship, if Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing's assassination failure was exposed, then Mu Tian would naturally go to support as soon as possible, rubbing his chin, after all, no matter what, the two immortal cultivators on the boat had a higher realm than Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing. "But will this assassination be successful?"

Mu Tian shook his head and smiled inexplicably.

But he said that on the river.

Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing quietly avoided the eyes of all the soldiers on the fleet, came to the bottom of the boat, stepped on the river, and waited for a few seconds, they estimated the time in their hearts, a minute later, the two jumped on the boat at great speed, in front, a group of soldiers had just patrolled by, and on its side, there were also four palace maids walking forward.

The two quickly integrated into the team of palace maids from behind, and then silently followed the palace maids in front of them.

Seeing that the four palace maids in front of them didn't notice anything unusual, Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing were all secretly relieved, now that the first step of the assassination has finally been completed, then they only need to find the room of the national teacher Taiyin Monk, and then attack and kill it!

This building ship is very large, with a total of three floors, and the palace maid who followed in front walked down the wooden ladder to the second floor, whether it was Xiaobai or Xiaoqing, they were observing everything around.

Walking and walking, this team of palace maids passed by a group of patrolling soldiers, and at the front of the soldiers was a commander in fine armor, he looked at the palace maids walking past him, and no one noticed the slight changes on his face.

The commander was a middle-aged man, he hid the expression on his face very well, pretending to be casual, and when he was completely separated from the group of palace maids in the back, he hurriedly took out a jade piece that emitted warm fluorescence and crushed it!

On the ancient trees on the shore, everything within a kilometer radius of Mutian's cultivation can be seen clearly, even in the dark night.

The strange behavior made by the middle-aged man happened to be in the direction of facing him, so Mu Tian naturally keenly wrote down this strange behavior, his brows furrowed slightly, he always felt that something was wrong, could it be that Xiaobai and the others were discovered?

However, he has just dived on the ship, and if he was really discovered, how did the middle-aged man do it?

Looking at the four palace maids in front of Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, Mu Tian suddenly thought of something, and spit out two words: "Regularity!" ”

Some time ago, Mu Tian followed the fleet and also observed the building boat, he found that there would be several palace maids from the first floor every once in a while on the building boat, before that, Mu Tian didn't care, but now thinking about it, although the number of palace maids changes every time, it seems to be irregular, but in this, you can also find the law!

“4、8。”

“4、7。”

“4、6。”

“4、5。”

Finding the answer, Mu Tian's brows relaxed, on this floor boat, the number of palace maids is carried out according to such a law, just now, Mu Tian still clearly remembered that the number of the two teams of palace maids before was: four and eight.

Therefore, after completing a reincarnation, it stands to reason that there can only be four people in the team of palace maids in which Xiaobai Xiaoqing is located, then five people, and then four people are transferred back, and then the team of palace maids can change to six people...

"This national teacher still has a bit of a brain." Mu Tian exclaimed. His eyes swept over the ship, looking at the palace maids and ordinary soldiers who were indifferent, as if they didn't know that the assassin had boarded the ship, it seemed that they were really in the dark, and the national teacher only revealed this law to prevent the assassin from boarding the ship to some people, as for the others, they were obviously not qualified to know.

The spiritual power in his body was surging, and Mu Tian's eyes were tightly locked on Xiao Bai, if there was a battle, he would immediately take action.

Floor on board.

Following the palace maid to the second floor, Xiaobai took Xiaoqing to seize a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sneak out of the team. No soldier noticed them, and on the second floor, the two of them secretly and quickly observed which room was inhabited by the National Teacher Taiyin Monk.

"It's too simple."

Fingers pierced the window lattice paper, Xiaoqing carefully observed the room along the hole, but also raised a sense of contempt.

Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Qing, and she found the laxity on the latter's face, obviously, this was a subtle change brought to Xiao Qing after successfully diving upstairs to the boat.

"Don't be careless!"

The whisper reminded Xiaoqing, and Xiaobai inexplicably felt that something was wrong in his heart. She still remembered the last time, it took a lot of effort for her to sneak onto the ship, it stands to reason that the Taiyin monk should be more careful this time, but now it is obviously a little different, how can it be so easy to get on the ship?

In this dangerous place, Xiaobai didn't dare to waste too much time thinking, since he was already on the boat, then stay cautious!

Xiaoqing also nodded.

After Xiaobai's reminder, Xiaoqing also knew that he had only completed the first step before, and he was not worth rejoicing, and only by successfully assassinating the Taiyin monk would it be done.

On the second floor of the ship, the two of them walked step by step, checking one room after another, bypassing the soldiers who patrolled the three rounds, and when they spied into a room at the stern of the ship, Xiaobai and Xiaoqing made a surprising discovery, and gently poked open the window lattice paper, only to see an old man in a Taoist robe sitting on the ground in the room.

The old man seemed to have fallen into cultivation, and he kept muttering the magic trick in his mouth, and many light patterns around his body were undulating and rotating.

"Taiyin Monk!" Xiao Qing's eyes were full of murderous intent.

Finding the target person, Xiaobai mobilized the demon power, and an imperceptible ice breath bloomed, and she used her demonic power to move the emerald green pearl hairpin on her head a little bit, and in an instant, the green light also bloomed, and the pearl hairpin stabbed the old man.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, and the door exploded!

Xiao Bai Xiaoqing's face changed greatly, only to see that the previous blow did not succeed, and the emerald green bead hairpin did not pierce into the body of the Taiyin monk, because beside him, a purple-robed path sitting on a three-headed crane seemed to wait for a long time and resisted the attack.

"Incompetent little demon, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The Taiyin monk slowly opened his eyes and said with a hoarse smile.
