124.Chapter 124: Hostage-taking
When I heard this, I was so frightened that my whole body trembled.
But the person covering my mouth thought about it, then shook his head and said in a low voice: "Don't forget our rules, don't kill innocents, don't kill women and children, besides, when we came to find something today, we are already hiding from the Dharma protector and breaking the rules, if we kill innocents indiscriminately, he is not so easy to speak!" ”
As soon as the "Dharma Protector" was mentioned, there was also a hint of awe in the eyes of the people around him, and they all nodded in agreement after a few glances at each other.
"Well, you're right."
"Go ahead, the thing is in the west wing of the inner courtyard, and it will be resolved quickly!"
"Yes!"
The men nodded, and immediately sped towards the inner courtyard.
I was still covered by this person's mouth, and I couldn't make a sound, but I looked at him with some trembling, and he also looked down at me, and said in a deep voice: "Girl, we don't kill innocents indiscriminately, but you'd better not talk nonsense, otherwise, the sword has no eyes, and if it really hurts you, it will be difficult to do." You don't want it to happen again. ”
It seems that although this person is an assassin, he also has his own morality, I thought about it and nodded obediently.
People are greedy for life and afraid of death, and this is not a shameful thing. I also want to live, I don't want to be stabbed for no reason, and besides, they are not here to stab, but to find an antidote, there is no need to force the tiger to jump over the wall.
So, I stood there obediently, but I was still shivering with cold because my back was against the cold wall, and I just hoped that they would find the herbs and leave quickly.
However, something else suddenly occurred to me.
Pei Yuanhao, will they find the antidote so lightly?
After a while, the time of a stick of incense passed, and those people still did not come back, and the person in front of him was also a little uneasy, looking anxiously at the wall, but because he took care of me, he still did not leave.
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the inner courtyard.
"It's an ambush, let's go!"
The silence of the night was immediately shattered by this shout, and then, in a place where there was only a wall, the cacophony of human voices and the clashing of swords and swords rang out, and the flames were everywhere, although they could not be seen, but just listening to these sounds could imagine how fierce the fight was inside.
Sure enough, Pei Yuanhao was really prepared!
When I turned my head, I saw that in the night, the few people wearing the guards' clothes withdrew from the inner courtyard, but faster, the surrounding shadow guards immediately stepped forward and surrounded them in front and back.
With the dispatch of the shadow guard, a tall figure came out of the gate of the inner courtyard, full of evil spirits.
Pei Yuanhao!
I saw him look coldly at the few stubborn assassins in the corner, and gave an order: "Take it!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the shadow guards immediately swarmed up, and suddenly the silver light in front of them flashed into a cold light, and the assassins were caught off guard, plus the shadow guards were numerous, and they were completely at a disadvantage, and they were injured several people one after another, so they could only fight and retreat, and slowly retreated towards us.
As soon as the shadow guard rushed up, he immediately saw us in the corner, and everyone was shocked, but Pei Yuanhao saw me as soon as he looked up, and a look of surprise flashed on his face.
But for just a moment, his face immediately turned cold, like ice.
"Don't come here!"
The assassin had already grabbed me in front of him, pinched my throat with one hand and put a dagger around my neck with the other, and shouted, "If you come again, I'll kill her!" ”
