Chapter 25: The Assassins
Seeing that the knife was about to fall on the top of Xu Han's head, the sharp and majestic knife intent locked the qi around his body, and he had no choice but to shake this knife that belonged to the Su family.
"Uncle Xu!"
But at this moment, a shout sounded behind him.
Xu Han, who was only twenty years old, could probably call him that way, but now he didn't have the heart to respond to the call of nineteen behind him.
But at the moment when the nineteenth voice sounded, Xu Han could clearly feel that the other party's face wrapped under the black hood seemed to have changed somewhat, and the next moment, the long knife and the figure of the black-robed man who had reached his body suddenly dispersed at this moment.
All is calm.
Xu Han stood in place, as if he had not recovered from such a change in the first place.
"Uncle Xu!" Nineteen's voice remembered again, accompanied by a rapid trot, she had already come to Xu Han's back, reached out to hold Xu Han's hand, and said anxiously: "Uncle Xu, go and see with me, my master is dying." ”
Xu Han finally came back to his senses in such a tug, he looked at Nineteen behind him, but he still couldn't determine whether everything that happened before was an illusion or something real.
But Nineteen didn't seem to see Fang Cai's scene, she pulled Xu Han with all her might, pulled the strange-looking young man into the corner of the street, and then pointed to Zhou Yuan, who seemed to be asleep, and said anxiously: "Master, Master can't get up, I can't wake up no matter how I scream!"
After seeing this situation, Xu Han finally reacted, he suppressed the doubts and uneasiness in his heart, and looked at Zhou Yuan.
"He... What's wrong?" Xu Han asked, but there was obviously a lingering palpitation in his strange tone that had not yet dissipated.
"This..."Xiao Nineteen was a little flustered, her eyes wandered around, and after a long while, she stammered: "I don't know, it's just... Suddenly, he fainted!"
Xu Han squatted down, probably because what happened before was too strange, and he rarely didn't go into too much detail.
After reaching out to probe Zhou Yuan's condition, his face softened slightly, and then he asked, "It's not a big deal, it seems that he just passed out in a coma, but... Why are you here?"
Nineteen obviously hadn't thought about this question, a hint of panic flashed across her cheeks, and she said hesitantly, "It's just hanging out..."
"Still hanging out so late?" Xu Hanhu asked suspiciously.
Nineteen was silent for a while, and after a long while, he said, "Uh... Master suddenly became interested..."
Seeing that Nineteen was like this, how could Xu Han not understand that Nineteen was deceiving him, but he didn't ask much, but just said: "We have a special identity, so it's better to do less of this kind of thing in the future." ”
After saying this, he picked up Zhou Yuan's fallen body, and led Nineteen, who was a little depressed after his mind was recognized, towards the inn where they were staying.
What Xu Han didn't expect was that after they left, the black-robed figure reappeared on the corner of the street where he was standing, and the black-robed figure looked at Xu Han's departing back, and there seemed to be fire in his eyes.
......
On the second day, the group prepared to leave the city as agreed.
Yuan Xiucheng's pursuers were still chasing them like jackals behind them, and it was obviously not a good way to live here for a long time, so it was only a good idea to leave this Jingzhou earlier.
According to the plan, the group still divided into three waves, and left the place with the crowd of people leaving the city and entering the city in the early morning.
Xu Han and Liu Sheng, who walked at the end, walked side by side, and there was still the same silence between the two, and Xu Han couldn't break this atmosphere after all.
The vendors on both sides of the road were selling breakfast, Xu Han glanced at Liu Sheng, who had a cold face, and said suddenly, "Ah Sheng, do you want to eat something?"
Liu Sheng stopped, glanced at Xu Han, and rarely agreed to Xu Han's proposal, he nodded, and said, "Yesterday, I heard from the shopkeeper that there is an old man surnamed Hu who has good buns, so let's go buy some." ”
When Xu Han heard this, he naturally nodded busily.
"Don't go out of the city!" suddenly there was a commotion in the street ahead, and a deep voice came from the front.
Xu Han and Liu Sheng glanced at each other, and they both saw a little uneasiness from each other's eyes, and they didn't care about whose buns they were at the moment, so they all walked towards the city gate.
There, they saw Li Dingxian and Fang Ziyu and his party, thinking that they were all trapped in this Tongcheng by the sudden change.
At the end of the city gate, a young girl dressed in white was standing there with a cold expression, and beside him a middle-aged man in armor was talking loudly.
"Good news for everyone!"
"The adults from Glaive City have brought us a full 30,000 holy medicines, and after taking this medicine, we will be invincible to all poisons from now on, and we will live a long life!"
The middle-aged man said loudly with a fanatical expression, and a group of armor soldiers behind the white-clothed girl also cooperated very well to lift the huge thing wrapped in two white cloths placed at the gate of the city, so two carriages full of medicine bottles appeared in front of the people of Tongcheng at that time.
The crowd burst into cheers.
Judging by their eagerness, it seemed that they believed in the deliberately disseminated rhetoric about the elixir.
Xu Han frowned, he looked at the fanatical people around him, and then looked at Li Dingxian and his party not far away, these days of contact let Xu Han roughly understand some of the little prince's temperament, he was a little worried that Li Dingxian who was in this realm couldn't hold back, and then added some chaos to them.
However, it seems that the previous events made this little prince have a long memory, although at this moment he looked indignant between his eyebrows, but after all, he did not do it as before.
"Do we want to see death and not save us?" At this time, Liu Sheng, who was beside him, suddenly looked at Xu Han and asked.
"Let's see. Xu Han responded with deep eyes, according to what Jiang Lai said and what they saw in Yanguang City, once they swallowed this so-called holy medicine, they would completely lose their consciousness and turn into a puppet, Xu Han could not know that such a change could have other ways to reverse it except relying on the copper plate left by Mr. Wei, and if not, in Xu Han's opinion, these people would be no different from dead.
But at this moment, if they make a move, it will not be difficult to destroy this batch of holy medicines, but what is difficult is the pursuit and killing from Yuan Xiucheng that they will face after their identities are exposed, and can the people in these 30,000 cities really escape such a fate because of this? If Senluo Hall can create such a batch of holy medicines, it will be able to create more holy medicines.
And just as Xu Han was thinking about this, several figures suddenly appeared among the onlookers.
They went straight to the two carriages full of holy medicine behind the white-clothed girl, Xu Han's heart was shocked, secretly thinking that Li Dingxian and the others had not controlled themselves, but after looking closely, they found that those figures were all unfamiliar faces.
The figures struck out so abruptly that the guards on both sides of the carriage had no time to draw their swords from their waists, and they had already killed them.
The sword light and sword shadow lit up, and blood marks appeared on the necks of those armor soldiers, and they fell to the ground on the spot.
However, the footsteps of the few people who raided did not stop, but after defeating these armorers, they stepped forward and rushed straight to the place where those holy medicines were located. Seeing this, Xu Han suddenly came to his senses, and they seemed to want to destroy these holy medicines!
And when they were about to succeed, the corner of the white-clothed girl standing at the city gate suddenly hooked up a smile.
She whispered, "Look for death." ”
The girl's body suddenly moved, and she was so fast that she shuttled around the assassins like a ghost, and each stop was accompanied by a slap of the palm, but in the blink of an eye she did it all.
Then the Assassins stopped their steps almost at the same time, and flew upside down one by one.
The girl's body returned to the distance, and if it weren't for Xu Han's eyesight, he wouldn't have been able to detect that the girl had knocked down all the nearly ten assassins in the blink of an eye.
More armor soldiers on both sides came to their senses at this point, and stepped forward to capture the seriously wounded assassins, and brought them to the city gate one by one, and rudely pressed their bodies.
"See, no. The girl in white squinted her eyes at the people of Tongcheng who had witnessed all this, and said, "These thieves want to destroy the holy medicine that Your Majesty gave us. ”
"You say, 'They deserve to die?' ”
When these words were spoken, most of the people in the city were immediately excited, and they shouted: "Kill them!"
"Kill these wicked people!"
It seemed that shouting like this was not enough to relieve the anger, and some people began to throw some stones and eggs at the captured assassins.
One of the Assassins, a man in his mid-thirties, tried to shout at the crowd with these flying objects: "Everyone, don't be deceived! These so-called holy medicines are poisons that make people's hearts and livers!"
"Think about Luoyan City, a hundred miles away! They had previously joined forces with the surrounding Jianghu sects to hide the children in the city, but since they took this so-called holy medicine, those parents have all rushed to send their children out! Which parent can do such a thing? It's all this holy medicine that is causing trouble!"
But the man's shouting was soon drowned out by the crowd's shouting, and no one wanted to listen to him, but instead regarded them as villains.
"Why don't we kill these thieves and sacrifice the flag, and then I will arrange for people to distribute holy medicine for everyone. Seeing this, the smile on the corner of the white-clothed girl's mouth became even worse, and her words naturally attracted the approval of those people who were bent on obtaining the holy medicine.
Then the rows of armor soldiers stood up again, and they all drew their long knives from their waists, and aimed them at the necks of the assassins, and they were about to swing them straight down...
