Chapter 19: Assassination

"Lord Huaili, my lord sent an oracle just now. ”

In the guest house next door, the priest of Shangqu, who was talking with Huai Liji, said with joy on his face.

"Congratulations to Lord Huaili, my main temple is willing to return to the Cai State Covenant. ”

Cai made Huai Liji's face suddenly overjoyed, and said to the priest of Shangqu: "That is the case, then the alliance between the Cai State and the temple will be continued today after a break of twenty years, and then the priest will be asked to give full play to the influence of the temple in Huai, and try his best to promote the return of the five kingdoms of Huaishang to Cai Meng." ”

The priest laughed and said, "Do as your lord says." ”

He looked at the sky again: "It's getting late today, Lord Huaili might as well rest in this guest house." ”

Huai Liji pushed but said: "Thank you for the kindness of the priest of Shangqu, Chen Guo's domestic change opportunity, as a spring official of Cai Guo's foreign affairs in Huaishang, there are still many things to deal with urgently, so I won't stay here overnight." ”

As he spoke, the two left the guest house, ready to leave.

As he was talking, Huai Liji's face suddenly froze, he looked at the guest house next to him, and exclaimed, "Snake Yu Gongzi, you are here?"

Wang Yue's heart is not good, this Huaibo Temple is not his own home, he can only follow the arrangement of the people in the temple, can not move around freely, Huai Liji left and passed by his guest house, the direction angle is just right to see from the door, he wants to hide and has nowhere to hide, but Huai Liji saw it.

Almost instantly, he thought about all kinds of possibilities in his heart, and the idea of killing directly rose and pressed again.

It's just the worst-case scenario, and it may not be the time yet.

His heart was urgent, but he did not panic on his face, but smiled slightly, and saluted with this Cai foreign affairs spring official without losing his grace.

"It turned out to be Lord Cai Huaili, and the more polite the snake king was. ”

"Hmph!" Cai made Huai Liji snort coldly, and a pair of eyes stared at Wang Yue, as if to target him through.

The priest Huaibo, who was traveling with him, did not understand the situation, and said in surprise: "The two are old people?"

"Lord Ben would rather not know this old man. Huai Liji said coldly.

Priest Huaibo vaguely understood the meaning, and his face changed instantly. Drinking with the two young priests, he asked, "Whose guest is this?"

The young priest's face was earthy, and he stammered: "Master Huishangqu, this son, yes." He was a guest of the priest of the song in the middle of the music. ”

"It turned out to be a guest of Zhongqu Leyan. The priest looked at Wang Yue with a smile, but said mercilessly: "This son, Lord Ben and Lord Huaili have some private matters to discuss here, I don't know if I can leave my Lord Huaiyin Temple?"

Listening to Shangqu, the priest casually set up a reason to expel Wang Yue, another priest's guest. Huai Liji was slightly proud: "Snake Yu Gongzi, didn't you hear what the priest said about Shangqu? Or do you want the priest to call the temple warrior and invite you out?"

Wang Yue glanced at him deeply, as if he wanted to remember him, his face showed a very angry look, and he said angrily: "Lord Huaili, is this the etiquette of the Cai people, this son meets you to salute, you are so rude." It's hateful. ”

With that, he hated it, turned around and walked out, looking extremely embarrassed.

Seeing him go out in a gloomy manner, Huai Liji laughed out loud and said to the priest who accompanied him: "This snake Yu Gongzi is openly against my Da Cai, and has ruined a major matter in the mansion of Dr. Lu Li, and also killed the warrior Baihe who came to Huaishang with me and the monarch personally gave the name of the north wind, I just want to eat his flesh, drink his blood, and sleep on his skin." Make his head into a wine vessel, Lord Shangqu really let out a bad breath for me just now, and Huai Liji is here to thank you. ”

"How did he do such a thing?" said the priest of Shangqu, and asked, "Now my main temple and Cai Guo are allies. Since he is already the enemy of Da Cai, he is also the enemy of my temple, as for the personal friendship between the priest of Zhongqu and him, he should also obey this overall situation, why didn't the lord just ask me to order someone to capture and kill him?"

"What?" said Huai Liji, not thinking about it. At this time, thinking about the smile on Wang Yue's face that made him a little bad when he first met, as well as all the looks later, thinking about the Luli Mansion that day, even in the face of his threat from Da Cai, he still looked calm, he didn't know that Wang Yue Xing had just met him and understood everything, all kinds of smiles, salutes, resentment, and embarrassment, it was very likely that it was a performance for him.

"Good thief. Huai Liji said angrily: "Shangqu priest, this person is so cunning and decisive, if he is bent on being the enemy of my Cai Guo, it must be a big trouble, please catch this thief for Lord Ben, and Lord Ben will be grateful afterwards." ”

"Do things for Huaibo, why do you need any thanks. The priest said, and shouted to the two young priests who were on the side: "What are you still doing here, go and pass on the order of Lord Ben, Hugh is going to run away from the man just now." ”

He also said to Huailiji: "Lord Huaili, you stay in the guest house for a while, and this priest will personally inquire about it, and he will not let him escape." ”

"Then there is the priest of Laoshangqu. Huai Liji and the priest of Shangqu arched their hands slightly: "Huai Liji is here waiting for good news." ”

The priest nodded, and then hurriedly left the guest house.

In the temple, leaving the VIP guest house, Wang Yue did not stop for half a step, and walked out slowly along the road with the priest of Zhongqu.

In just a few dozen breaths, he had reached the gate of the temple in three bends and five rounds.

"Stop. Two warriors stopped him at the temple gate.

Wang Yue pressed his steps and said to them calmly: "My son came with the priest of Zhongqu before, and now he has some urgent matters to go out. ”

A warrior looked at him and said, "Yes, it's the serpentine prince who came with the priest of Zhongqu Leyan just now, let him go." ”

The other saw that he was also familiar, and his status was unusual, but he was a son, so he didn't say anything more, and said, "Childe, please." ”

Wang Yue smiled, put his hands on his shoulders, and walked out of the Huaibo Temple in a grand manner.

Not long after he left, the Huaibo Temple was immediately deserted, and several priests of the Zhongqu rank and more than a dozen temple warriors quickly rushed to the gate from the inside, and asked with the two warriors, "Did the snake prince go out from here just now?"

The samurai looked at their expressions and said, "There is a prince who has come with the priest of Le Yan and left. ”

Outside the temple, Wang Yue walked out of the temple gate, in fact, he didn't leave too far, only slightly mixed in with the crowd, and then hid around the corner of the street, with the opening of the eagle's eye, he saw this scene in his eyes, and the heart was fortunate to arrive an hour earlier than Huai Liji today, otherwise he entered the Huai Bo Temple an hour later, and he was meeting Huai Li Ji who had reached an agreement with the temple was unlucky, even if there was a way to get out by the ink viper, the secret techniques collected by the Huai Bo Temple would have nothing to do with him.

This is good, although it is a little embarrassed, but after all, the biggest purpose of this trip is to achieve.

He was about to leave, but his heart moved, and he was in a hurry just now, but he didn't have time to take back the ink viper.

At this time, the ink viper was still hiding outside the Huaibo Guest House.

At the moment, he was about to manipulate the ink viper to jump into the water, asking it to dive to the bottom of the lake, and then dive out, but found that Huai Liji, who was about to leave, had returned to the guest house for some reason.

The corners of Wang Yue's mouth pulled out a slight arc.

He used all kinds of means to send the ink viper to sneak to Huai Liji's side, and what he wanted to do was not just eavesdropping.

It's a pity that the priest of Shangqu Huaibo has been with Huai Liji, so he has never had a chance to do it.

At this time, isn't it the opportunity he has been waiting for a long time?

In this way, Wang Yue's mind moved, his consciousness flowed, and his will descended along the maintenance with the ink viper, and he personally controlled the ink viper from the windowsill to shoot straight to Huai Liji's side in the guest house.

In the guest house, Cai Yuanhuai Liji was still thinking about Wang Yue's various performances just now, and he felt more and more hateful and hateful, and he became more and more jealous of Wang Yue in his heart.

"I hope the priest of the temple will catch him, or if this man escapes, he will surely have endless troubles. Huai Liji took a deep breath and thought hatefully: "If you can take it, the envoy will definitely make you unable to survive or die." ”

Suddenly, he faintly felt that something was wrong, when did a dark green arrow shoot at him from the windowsill behind the guest house?

"No, it's not an arrow, it's a snake. ”

Although Huai Liji's force is not very powerful, far less than Baihe, he is also a samurai, and he instantly understood what was being shot, and an infinite vigilance rose in his heart, and he moved his body to get out of the way, and he even drew his sword out of the sheath and killed the snake on the spot.

It's just that the body of the ink viper in mid-air twisted, and spit out the Huaibo silver badge in his abdomen to his mouth, which was slightly excited.

Huai Bo badge reacted suddenly, according to the original, Huai Bo's power should be to gather water vapor in the atmosphere to form a water shield in front of him, but after passing through Wang Yue's hands and feet, the water shield has not yet formed, and its power operation is destroyed, and the power is suddenly released forward.

It was enough to protect the power of the upper samurai's several blows, wrapped in the gathered water, and in an instant, it turned into a number of high-pressure water knives that were enough to cut gold and jade, scattering and cutting at Huai Riji's body, almost blocking all the directions of his escape.

"Retreat!" Huai Liji could only retreat, and then pulled out his sword and slashed towards the water gun, but this was like several high-ranking warriors shooting at the same time, and it was a water knife cut under Wang Yue's control, how could it be so easy to resist.

The bronze sword in his palm was cut by the water knife in an instant, and he couldn't even resist half a point, and then the water knife that rushed to his face cut through one after another.

"It's a snake, this is definitely a snake Yu Gongzi. Before he died, Wang Yue's figure flashed in his mind, and he thought about the oncoming water knife, which undoubtedly seemed to be the power of Huaibo, and suddenly understood Wang Yue's sinister intentions.

"It's disgusting. He said hatefully, and all parts of his body began to slide down the gap cut by the waterjet, and his whole body was scattered all over the ground, and the blood instantly stained the gorgeous carpet on the floor of the guest house.

The ink viper struck a successful blow, bounced back to the ground, turned into a green shadow, pierced through the window, and fell to the surface of the lake below the temple in an instant, diving rapidly, and when it reached the bottom of the lake, it sank down, like a dragon returning to the sea.

"Ah, someone, Lord Huaili has been killed. ”

The two low-ranking priests, who were waiting outside the guest house, finally noticed the situation outside the guest house, and they screamed and shouted.

After a while, the entire temple was in a panic.

Wang Yue, who was waiting for the return of the Ink Viper outside, even felt that Huaibo's incomparably powerful will carried the power to project along the Huaishui into the temple, but at this time, the Ink Viper had already escaped from the ground, even if Huaibo was there in person, he could only look at a corpse that was torn apart under the power of Huaibo, and had to face the fact that Huai Liji, the official of Cai State stationed in Huai Shangchun, died in the Huaibo Temple under the water knife prompted by Huaibo's power.
