Chapter 35: Assassination in the Night
"Your Highness, if you ascend to the throne, there is one thing I must have." When Lin Jundao handed over a list of elixirs to Su Mushi, he said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Su Mushi frowned when he heard this, he was not afraid that Lin Jundao would ask for things, but he was afraid that he would not want anything: "What does Mr. Dongfang want?" ”
"After the deed is completed, I want the sixth princess." Lin Jundao's flat voice came from under the mask, but there was a hint of excitement in the blandness.
"Hahaha, Mr. Dongfang seems to be really a temperamental, my sixth sister is the first beauty in Huawu County, and her cultivation talent is also excellent, no wonder Mr. Dongfang takes a fancy to my sixth sister. If it were my prince's elder brother, he might not give you my sixth sister after he ascended the throne. But here, don't worry, if I take the throne, I will definitely marry my sixth sister to Mr. Dongfang. ”
"Hehe, I don't want her people, but her head." Looking at the figure of Su Mushi leaving, Lin Jun under the mask said in his heart, and there was always a cold smile on his face.
"Get out there and keep guard, don't let people in." Lin Jundao kicked the water unicorn and the earth dog, and then began to tinker in the house.
…………
"Uncle Lin, I'm sure that the person who killed Han Songli is Your Majesty!" In an inn, Ling Er said to Lin Yong anxiously.
"I also think that figure is very similar to Your Majesty, but where did His Majesty go in the half month ago? Why did he come to Huawu Junguo again now, and he also entered the Qi Palace. Lin Yong was a little puzzled.
Since Lin Jundao's disappearance, Lin Yong and Ling Er have been driven out by a group of ministers to find Lin Jundao's whereabouts. At Ling Er's suggestion, the two of them took a few eighteen guards and ran to the imperial capital of the Huawu County to find them.
Today, when they were wandering around in the imperial capital, they heard that there was a bustle in the Qi Palace, so they naturally ran to see it. Of course, they didn't see it when Lin Jundao violently beat Han Yuanshan before, but they heard rumors afterwards.
"No, it's not just the figure, because I know the martial arts that Your Majesty used when killing Han Songli, and Your Majesty taught me!" Ling Er was very sure, she could clearly see that His Majesty had cast the "Three Swords of the Wandering Dragon".
"Oh?" Lin Yong was a little surprised, but since Ling Erduo said so, then he was basically sure that the young man with the mask was their majesty!
"What do we do now?" Lin Yong asked, what the ministers of Yunyan County meant was to invite Lin Jundao back after seeing him, and he couldn't let him mess around outside.
But Ling'er knew that whatever His Majesty did was not messing around, and now that His Majesty had gone to the Qi Palace, he should have his purpose.
"We'll wait and see if we can get in touch with Your Majesty. The news about His Majesty's presence in the Qi Palace's Mansion cannot be known to more people. After a moment of silence, Ling Er said.
…………
"His Royal Highness the Prince, it has been found out, the masked young man who killed Han Songli today is an alchemy master, it was this alchemy master who gave a pill to the second prince, and the second prince dedicated the pill to His Majesty, Your Majesty is happy, and even the matter of Han Songli's killing is no longer investigated."
In the prince's mansion, the crown prince Su Muxuan listened to the report of the investigator, and his face became extremely gloomy, or since he came back from the palace, his face has always been gloomy.
"Well, got it, let's go down." Su Muxuan waved his hand.
The reporter answered yes and withdrew.
"Mr. Bai, how do you think this matter should be resolved?" In the empty palace, the voice of the crown prince echoed.
"Crunch!" The gates of the palace closed, and at the same time a cold aura rose throughout the palace.
"After the failure of the 'Liukou' plan last time, not only did His Highness suffer heavy losses, but also made His Majesty embarrassed. Now that these two princes suddenly came to such a hand, it really seriously affected the prince. Another voice echoed through the palace.
"Of course I know this, and I want a solution to the current situation. If I allow my second brother to offer more Dan a few more times, the impact will be the most terrifying. The prince waved his sleeve impatiently.
"Don't worry, the prince is in a hurry, it is easy to solve at this time, there is actually only one key point in this situation, and that is the alchemy master. If you get rid of that alchemy master, you will naturally be able to break the game.
Besides, I heard that His Majesty is now asking the alchemy master to continue alchemy for His Majesty. If the alchemy master is gone, and the second prince can't come up with the elixir, will he end up provoking Long Yan's anger? The voice explained.
Hearing this, the prince also knew that he was anxious, and the authorities were confused, and he didn't see the key to such a simple game for a while.
"Okay, then go and prepare to do that alchemy master, I don't want him to live to see the sun tomorrow."
Then the door of the palace opened again, and the cold aura inside disappeared.
…………
At night, Lin Jundao took out the pill from the medicine furnace that he had spent half a day refining.
"Rich and noble, you give me a good protector." Lin Jundao kicked the water qilin and the half-demon earth dog lying on the ground, and threw out two pills at the same time.
When Dafu and Dagui saw the pill, they immediately caught the pill in mid-air, and then swayed out of the house and went outside to guard.
Lin Jundao took the pill that had just been refined, and then took out three drops of Emperor Taihuang's blood.
"It's time for the Taihuang Sutra to be cultivated to the second level." Looking at the three drops of Emperor Taihuang Blood in his hand, Lin Jundao directly obeyed it. Although the blood of the Emperor Taihuang is extremely precious, Lin Jundao is not willing to give it up, because he knows very well that this precious resource is best cherished only when its best value is brought into play.
While refining the elixir and the blood of the Emperor of the Taihuang Dynasty, he was also running the second layer of the "Taihuang Sutra".
"There are assassins!" At a certain moment after midnight, the entire Qi Palace, with a shout, was shaken.
The rich and noble who was guarding the door raised his head and looked at the quiet courtyard, but he was unmoved.
Lin Jundao was still cultivating, and after a while, a black figure quietly approached the courtyard where he was.
When the black figure jumped into the small courtyard, his toes tapped the ground, a simple knife in his hand, and quickly went straight to the hut.
The two dogs who were asleep at the door were still asleep as if they didn't notice it. But the comer didn't ignore these two dogs, because he had also heard that these two dogs had put down more than a dozen Qi Gathering Realm masters of the Criminal Department today.
So when this time approached, the black figure suddenly slashed the Pu knife towards the white unicorn.
The two dog's ears moved, and when the Pu knife approached, the two swishing sounds jumped at the same time, and the water unicorn shook the Pu knife that slashed hard.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the water qilin was bounced out, but the Pu knife only left a flesh wound on its body. But the man in black was hit by the water unicorn like this, and his whole person staggered back.
However, Dafu seized the opportunity at this time, and the moment he jumped up, he bit the knife-wielding arm of the man in black. A pair of sharp front paws kicked the opponent's thighs and abdomen violently.
With a few muffled sounds, Dafu had already scratched a few wounds on the other party's body, and the arm holding the Pu knife was also bitten down by him.
The man in black was in pain and shook his hand violently, trying to throw the rich man out.
Laugh at!
But the man in black shook it like this, but Dafu tore off a large piece of flesh from his arm, and he snorted in pain.
Boom!
At the same time, the door of the hut was slammed open, and a young man in a mask rushed out with a long sword. Exquisite swordsmanship stabbed at him.
In a panic, the man in black endured the pain on his arm and danced a knife to block it.
However, the knife he resisted in this panic and injury was full of loopholes in Lin Jundao's eyes.
Whew......
The long sword in Lin Jundao's hand swung out quickly, and after the first sword swept away the other party's blocked Pu knife, each sword fell on the other party, leaving several sword wounds on his body.
However, the man in black reacted very quickly, and he could see that Lin Jundao's swordsmanship was exquisite, but he also knew that his advantage was in the cultivation realm. Immediately snorted, and slashed at Lin Jundao with a fierce knife, wanting to use his strong strength to shake Lin Jundao away.
With a bang, between the swords and swords, Lin Jundao was really shocked back two feet.
At the same time, the man in black also wanted to seize this opportunity to go backwards, he missed tonight, and now that he was injured, it was almost impossible to kill Lin Jundao again.
"Click......"
However, just as the man in black was about to retreat, a crisp sound came from under his feet, and at the same time, a freezing chill came from his left foot.
The man in black looked down, and suddenly saw that his left foot was frozen by a piece of cold ice at some point! And the cold ice was still spreading to his thigh, imprisoning his left leg in place!
"Dagui, good job." Lin Jundao smiled and said.
The water unicorn on the side, Dagui wiped the corner of his mouth with one of his front paws, I don't know if it was saliva or something else, when he heard the name Dagui, it roared a few times to express its dissatisfaction, and thought: How can he call such a dirty name like that earth dog?
Lin Jundao ignored Shui Qilin's dissatisfaction, tightened the long sword in his hand, stepped on the star step, and suddenly attacked the man in black.
The man in black was imprisoned in place at this time, and many methods could not be used, and when he saw Lin Jundao rushing to kill, he was also anxious in his heart. The spiritual power in his body was working, and his right foot kicked hard against the ice cube in his left foot.
The water qilin that was lying back on the ground showed a trace of disdain and mockery in his eyes when he saw this, and then he didn't look at it anymore, closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
With a bang, the man in black's right foot kicked on the ice. But in an instant, his face became extremely ugly, the ice was not broken by him, and the sole of his right foot was frozen in that instant......
