Chapter 58: Assassination
The white cat on the wall obediently jumped to the ground, walked to Shen Luoqi's feet, shook the water droplets on the hair on his body, and rubbed Shen Luoqi's feet with a "meow meow".
Shen Luoqi picked up the cat on the ground, hugged it into his arms, sighed slightly, and said, "I'm really sorry, I don't have anything to eat for you now." Bear with me. ”
As she spoke, she continued to walk forward with an umbrella and a cat in her arms.
There were fewer pedestrians on the road, and Shen Luoqi stood at the head of the bridge with an umbrella. The rain was getting quieter, and suddenly, a dark shadow flashed.
It's Qing Dai.
"General. She bowed her head and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess is almost in the imperial city." ”
Shen Luoqi nodded: "What about Chu Ci?"
Qing Dai replied: "I have been following, but I didn't start, he didn't know that the general was not there." ”
Shen Luoqi was silent for a moment, not knowing now does not mean that he will not know tomorrow.
"Knocked him out and sent him to me. Shen Luoqi said. If you don't keep him by your side, you are not very reassured.
Qing Dai raised her eyes, glanced at Shen Luoqi, and said tentatively: "Qin Ruomin's case has come to an end, general...... Why don't you go back?"
"......" Shen Luoqi looked into the distance and replied, "Yes, but not now." ”
Qing Dai bowed slightly, didn't ask more, just replied: "Yes." And it disappeared into the hazy drizzle.
Shen Luoqi turned around and continued to walk forward, walked across the arched bridge, turned a corner, and there was no one on the street, because of the rain, the doors and windows were closed from house to house.
At this moment, the little thing in his arms suddenly became uneasy, and he grinned at the fog rising in front of him due to the heavy rain.
Shen Luoqi's eyes froze, and the hand holding the cat was slightly forced, only to hear a miserable scream of "meow", and she said, "Be quiet." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was silence all around, Shen Luoqi stopped and put the cat in his arms on the ground.
In the dense fog rising not far away, a few floating white things faintly appeared, coming in the direction of Shen Luoqi like ghosts. Roughly estimated, there should be about three or four, and the shape is vague.
Shen Luoqi was not in a hurry, standing in place and waiting for them to get closer.
Suddenly, the "ghost" led by him rushed out of the thick fog, and the sword wrapped in white cloth in his hand revealed its edge, stabbing straight at Shen Luoqi.
Shen Luoqi had the strength under his feet, held the umbrella, and dodged lightly. Immediately afterwards, another "ghost" rushed out, and the axe wrapped in the bandage in his hand slashed fiercely at Shen Luoqi.
I saw her dodge sideways, dodging the axe, barely having room to breathe, and an iron chain flew from the mist with a "clang", hitting Shen Luoqi with strong spiritual power.
She stepped back, the chain slamming into the ground, and the ground immediately cracked.
Shen Luoqi turned around, and the umbrella in his hand rotated, and several steel needles flew out in the fog in front of him instantly.
I have to say that the umbrella of this Dali Temple is really of good quality, and it was shocked by such a strong spiritual power, and it directly bounced the steel needle open.
Another steel needle flew in, and Shen Luoqi flew into the air on his toes, successfully dodging it.
Holding her umbrella, she slowly descended and landed in the middle of the road, raising her hand to flick away the little rain stains on her shoulders.
At this time, the fog gradually dissipated, the rain became heavier, the sky was already completely dark, and not far away, the lights were already lit.
Shen Luoqi stood in the middle of the road, surrounded by four people with different skills in white mourning clothes.
The rain crackled and fell on the umbrella, and several strangely dressed people let the rain wet their clothes, but their fierce eyes always only fell on Shen Luoqi.
Shen Luoqi sneered, and said a little unsavedly: "Heh, it's really hard for you." From Lingyue City to Zhulu City, there is no less loss. ”
Several people didn't know if they listened to Shen Luoqi's words, so they waved the weapons in their hands and attacked them.
Suddenly, the sound of chains crackling mingled with the sound of axes slicing through the ground and swords and steel needles cutting through the air.
These four people are obviously not easy to deal with, the enemy is outnumbered, Shen Luoqi is naturally not an opponent, she has no weapon in her hand, after dodging several times, in order to maintain balance, she has to let go of the umbrella in her hand.
As soon as she landed, her ankles were instantly entangled in chains. There was no time to dodge, so he could only be thrown up by the chain.
Before she had time to think, she chuckled in her heart, and her whole person rose into the air. He was ready to fall apart, but in the next second, a figure flashed, and Shen Luoqi only felt a tightness around his waist, and a shadow suddenly shrouded his face.
Shen Luoqi fixed his eyes and saw that it was Ye Jinyu.
He held the umbrella that Shen Luoqi had just thrown away with one hand, and grabbed Shen Luoqi's waist with the other, and the two slowly fell.
Ye Jinyu didn't forget to laugh and said, "Xiao Mei'er, you owe me a favor again." ”
Before the words fell, suddenly a few steel needles flew in, and Shen Luoqi naturally didn't have the heart to listen to him.
"Be careful!"
Ye Jinyu threw the umbrella in her hand, quickly took Shen Luoqi into her arms with one hand, and carried spiritual power with the other hand, forming a protective barrier, only to hear a few "bang" sounds to instantly block the steel needle.
The two landed safely, and at this time, Qiu Yun and Qiu Yan fell from both sides with Ye Jinyu's secret guards and surrounded the four of them.
Seeing that the goal could not be achieved, the four of them had to give up, put down the ***, and disappeared in the violent smoke.
"These people have a lot of backgrounds. Ye Jinyu put down Shen Luoqi and looked at the direction in which the four people left, and they would definitely not be able to catch up. As he spoke, he quietly tilted the umbrella over her head. smiled: "You are really good at picking people." ”
Shen Luoqi glared at him angrily, and saw the little white cat "meowing", and his eyes came to Ye Jinyu's feet and rubbed it.
Ye Jinyu smiled: "Yo, the little thing is quite aura." ”
Shen Luoqi didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, dodged the umbrella in his hand, and walked forward. The little white cat naturally followed Shen Luoqi.
Ye Jinyu was stunned for a moment, looking at her leaving, she felt a little lost in her heart.
He sighed slightly, and said in his heart: Sure enough, it is a stone that is not hot.
Ye Jinyu turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, Shen Luoqi suddenly stopped, and the white cat accompanying him was also spinning in place.
Ye Jinyu was stunned, and the ghost envoy stopped like a god.
At this moment, time seems to stand still. It was raining in the sky, the fog was hazy, and the sound of rain lapping on oil-paper umbrellas was heard in my ears.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Luoqi still turned his head slightly and said, "It's raining too much, do you want to go along?"
After all, she is the one who saved herself twice, and she is not the one who will take revenge.
The rain is getting quieter.
Hearing this, Ye Jinyu showed a sad face, ran to Shen Luoqi's umbrella with cheerful steps, took the umbrella in her hand, and the two walked side by side in the hazy drizzle.
Behind him, Qiu Yun and Qiu Yan looked at each other, not quite understanding what was going on.
It's just that in the hazy night, Ye Jinyu heard two words that were very faint: "Thank you." Even if Shen Luoqi said it very quietly, Ye Jinyu still took it all in her ears, and replied in a good mood: "It's an honor." ”
The night was hazy, but on the second floor of the teahouse next to the street, a man wearing a silver mask had a panoramic view of all this. The eyes are complex, and I can't see the mood.
Silent all the way, Ye Jinyu sent Shen Luoqi to Su Mansion, and went back to the Imperial Mansion with an umbrella.
