Chapter 21: Successful Deliverance
Jiang Xiaoyu found a lot of people, but he still didn't get the answer he wanted, which made him feel a little irritable.
He walked slowly, softly, and suddenly, he saw a man in black who was in a hurry.
It's a fish that slipped through the net.
Jiang Xiaoyu squinted his eyes, and did not rush out to solve him, but moved in his heart and followed behind this guy.
The guy didn't pay any attention to his companions who were sitting on the ground around him, and instead hurried forward, as if he had a definite purpose.
Jiang Xiaoyu saw this, so he decided to follow behind this guy.
There is a great possibility that this guy's destination is the room where Zhang Lingzhi is being held.
After all, a high-grade sacrifice was definitely much more important to the Heavenly Sacrifice Alliance than an ordinary disciple.
This man in black is none other than Long Jiu.
He informed the rest of his companions who were not poisoned of Zhou Haoran's instructions, and he went to the more important place where the sacrifices were located.
Soon, he came to a room in the Qin family's compound, and after picking up a petite girl, he walked out of the room and began to return, preparing to go to the agreed place and meet Long Yi.
However, just as he was moving briskly, a fierce killing intent locked on him, causing his heart to pound.
At this moment, a short knife that shimmered with cold light swept through his neck like lightning.
Long Jiu retreated, subconsciously reacting.
However, even though Long Jiu's reaction was quite fast, this sharp short knife with cold light shimmering came even faster.
Sneering –
Although Long Jiu avoided the fatal injury of the short knife to him, his neck was still cut open by a flash of knife qi, even if this wound was not fatal enough, it was enough for Long Jiu to feel a sharp pain, and his state dropped sharply.
In addition, due to the uncontrollable frenzied gushing of blood, Long Jiu had to hurriedly urge his true qi to suppress the wound on his neck.
Despite this situation, Long Jiu still held Zhang Lingzhi tightly in his hands and did not waver at all.
Immediately after, a figure turned over from the beam of the corridor, and it was Jiang Xiaoyu with a cold light in his eyes.
"Hand over the man in your hands."
Jiang Xiaoyu saw Long Jiu and Zhang Lingzhi in his arms, his tone was calm but implied excitement, and he said word for word: "I'll give you a good time." ”
"Jiang Zhuliu, it's up to you!"
The murderous intent in Long Jiu's eyes, coupled with the blood flowing from his neck, made him look quite scary at this time.
Long Jiu is no stranger to Jiang Xiaoyu. A few days ago, he was one of the black-clothed people who killed Jiang Xiaoyu outside an inn.
"I didn't expect you to dare to come here, it's really bold."
Long Jiu's voice suppressed his anger, but he had a bit of a fierce appearance, and said in a low voice: "You are killing yourself." ”
"Put down your high shelf." Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at him and sneered, "You are the one who is killing yourself now." ”
Jiang Xiaoyu could realize that Long Jiu in front of him was a strong man on the outside.
Of course, even if Long Jiu is not a strong outsider, with his own strength, Jiang Xiaoyu does not have to be afraid at all, and can be tough to the end.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Long Jiu hear Jiang Xiaoyu's words, and said in a deep voice: "So, you gave this poison?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, since you're disobedient, then go and die." Jiang Xiaoyu was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he made a decisive move.
Sou!
He waved the short knife in his hand, stepped on his feet, and came to Long Jiu's side to start a hand-to-hand battle with him.
Long Jiu's strength is not much higher than Jiang Xiaoyu, and the second-rate master in the middle stage, in terms of a five-star martial artist, is only a small realm higher than Jiang Xiaoyu.
You must know that the gap in this small realm is not an irreparable distance for Jiang Xiaoyu.
What's more, Long Jiu was suddenly attacked by Jiang Xiaoyu, and he was not in a good state at the moment, especially in his arms, holding a Zhang Lingzhi.
In this way, in the face of Jiang Xiaoyu's attack, he could only be forced to dodge, and it was difficult to even fight back.
"Damn it!" Long Jiu gritted his teeth.
Narrowly dodging Jiang Xiaoyu's attack, Long Jiu suddenly noticed that his clothes were cut into rags by Jiang Xiaoyu's short knife, and his sense of crisis was greatly enhanced, so he immediately gritted his teeth, threw Zhang Lingzhi in his hand, bent his legs and flicked his legs, and actually swept past Jiang Xiaoyu's side and escaped from here.
Jiang Xiaoyu caught Zhang Lingzhi and looked at Long Jiu's back as he fled in a hurry, not the slightest defense against Long Jiu's escape.
However, he, who completely had the upper hand, did not choose to catch up.
He understood Long Jiu's plan, and he undoubtedly wanted to leave here first, and then gather all the companions in the Qin family's compound at this time who were not poisoned, and launch a head-on attack on him.
This is not good news for Jiang Xiaoyu.
However, Long Jiu's escape was not so important to him.
Long Jiu was originally an inconsequential character. Moreover, the purpose of Jiang Xiaoyu's trip was to save Zhang Lingzhi and complete his revenge on Zhou Haoran by the way.
At this time, having already accomplished one of his goals, could it be that he wanted to abandon Zhang Lingzhi at this moment and pursue this insignificant enemy in his eyes?
Jiang Xiaoyu thought about it, felt the warm fragrant nephrite in his arms again, and suddenly blinked his eyes, only to feel a little weak.
He hesitated for a moment, plucked up his courage, and looked down, only to find that Zhang Lingzhi had not fallen asleep, but had always maintained a clear consciousness, and Shui Lingling's eyes were staring at him.
However, judging from Zhang Lingzhi's weak body, this chick was obviously given a poison similar to "Ten Spices and Soft Tendons" by Zhou Haoran and others.
The corners of Jiang Xiaoyu's mouth twitched: "See you again." ”
Zhang Lingzhi blinked and did not speak. Judging from her puffing little face, this chick is not that she has no strength to speak, but that she doesn't want to pay attention to Jiang Xiaoyu.
Jiang Xiaoyu sighed: "I'll take you out first." ”
He was really lucky to the soles of his feet, and with a bend of his legs, he jumped on the roof, ran along the roof, and spent about a stick of incense to find an ordinary inn and place Zhang Lingzhi in it.
"The poison in your body has not caused damage to your body, and you can rest assured. In addition, when I was just on my way, I left a trace of True Qi in your body, which eliminated most of the toxins from your body, and you are now able to use your True Qi to detoxify on your own. In this way, in a few hours at most, you will be regained and your body will be fine. ”
Jiang Xiaoyu put Zhang Lingzhi on the bed, and said in a calm tone: "I will notify your brother as soon as I go out, and ask them to send someone to pick you up in this place." This will ensure your safety in the fastest possible time. ”
When Jiang Xiaoyu said this, he couldn't help but pause, and then glanced at Zhang Lingzhi deeply: "What happened before was that I was wrong, I have to apologize to you......"
"I'm sorry."
After saying it word by word, Jiang Xiaoyu turned around and left.
When Zhang Lingzhi heard Jiang Xiaoyu's words, a complicated look appeared on his stubborn little face.
She is not a fool, of course she can see that Jiang Xiaoyu risked her life to save her in the enemy camp.
Although she didn't know where Jiang Xiaoyu was going to leave at this time, she had an idea in her heart, and it was an idea that she was absolutely sure of.
"You-"
Zhang Lingzhi couldn't help but speak, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "You are going to die." ”
"It's not a ...... to die"
Jiang Xiaoyu's footsteps stopped, and he turned around and smiled brightly at her.
"This is premeditated revenge!"
Then, no longer standing, he closed the door to his room.
He came to the outside of the inn, found a gold ingot, found an idler who had nothing to do, and said to him: "You go to an inn now, tell the innkeeper that Zhang Lingzhi is at the Laifu Inn, and ask the shopkeeper to inform Zhang Lingzhi's brother that this ingot of gold is yours." After the deed is completed, you can also ask the people of the Zhang family for another ingot of gold. ”
"No problem, no problem." This man was stunned, he never thought that he would encounter such a good thing when he went out shopping with nothing to do, so he nodded frantically.
Jiang Xiaoyu stuffed the gold into him and said, "Use your fastest speed, understand?" ”
"Understood!"
