Chapter 10: Assassination

The long corridor, as far as the eye can see, is empty among the grasslands, lotus ponds, and rockery bamboo forests, and it is as quiet as a tomb. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Senior brother!" Sodi rushed out of the door, the phantom wand in his hand shone brightly, and his jade-like face silently exuded a murderous aura: "What person?"

Lan Shi froze: "I don't know." Reluctantly, he walked towards the room.

Carefully look at the dozen or so flying knives, the blades are sharp, faintly flashing with cold light, but they are not highly poisonous, but the strength of their sharp water chestnut and the thrower's phantom power can completely penetrate the human body, even if the victim can accidentally save his life, I am afraid that it is impossible to have any ability to resist, even if there is only a three-year-old child who only needs a knife to lightly wipe his neck to kill him.

Who is so insidious and cunning? Mei Sanniang? If it is Mei Sanniang, who is the number one secret artist in the rivers and lakes, she only needs a silver needle that is so small that the naked eye cannot see it that she can kill her, why does she still need these dozen dazzling flying knives, isn't this a swagger? And it is still a non-poisonous flying knife? What is the purpose? And none of them hit, is it a fluke, or is it deliberate? If so, what is its purpose? Is it to suggest that they take a detour? Or to signal them to do it themselves?

"Senior brother, quickly take back the hidden shield. If this continues, we will continue to consume magic power to maintain the strength of the hidden shield, but we are afraid of being calculated by the villain, even if we have the art of returning to the sky, we will die at that time. Sodi could clearly feel that the sturdy hidden shield around her was protecting her, and she reminded her.

Lan Shi nodded, but just as he reached out to withdraw the hidden shield, he suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong, senior brother?"

"Now that the enemy has assassinated us in broad daylight, we must have something to know about it, otherwise we will not attack it lightly. Lan Shi felt that an ominous omen was constantly crushing, and he said: "The enemy is dark and I am clear, if we attack again, I am afraid that we will definitely die." He glanced at Sodi silently: "The hidden shield is still on you, it can greatly ensure your safety." You don't have to mobilize the Phantom Powers to defend, and when the situation is in a crisis, you can mobilize all the Phantom Powers to kill the opponent. ”

Sodi is naturally not ignorant, seeing that Lan Shi said so much, he just wanted to use the hidden shield to protect himself with all his might, but he was exposed to seclusion, and he was furious when he heard this: "I don't need your protection, do you think I'm stupid? Why are you so selfish? I'm not afraid of death." As long as you can drink it, Senior Brother will die together......" said the crystal clear tears rolling down uncontrollably.

Lan Shi didn't respond at all, and still said categorically: "Senior sister, if the other party attacks again, he will never show mercy. Senior Brother is a fighter, and his physique is naturally much tougher than that of other illusionists, and even if I encounter another sneak attack, I can detect it with shock. However, you are a magician, and your physique is much worse, if there is an omission, how can the senior brother explain to the master?"

"I ...... I don't need you to explain to Master......" This hidden shield can't be lifted by anyone except the caster, Sodi was angry, gritted his teeth and said, "I...... I'm going to fight with them!"

As he spoke, the phantom wand in his hand suddenly lit up, shining brighter than any other time, so dazzling that his eyes were dazzling. With a dodge, Sodi is about to take the door out again.

"Stop!" Lan Shi shouted, the sharp cross-spear suddenly blocking in front of Sodi. Bang! The cross-gun slammed into the shield with a sharp crashing sound.

"If you are still so reckless, Senior Brother Hugh blames you for punishing you with door rules. Lan Shi's entire handsome face was bruised, and it could be seen that he was really angry and ashamed at this time.

In the past, Lan Shi would always spoil Sodi, no matter how unreasonable he was, Lan Shi always smiled at himself, even if he caused a big disaster, he naturally had a senior brother to carry it for himself. And this was the first time Sodi had seen Lan Shi's cold face, and she even felt a little cold.

"Do we have to sit still?" But Sodi knew that Lan Shi just wanted to protect himself, but he was not afraid: "Okay, since Senior Brother insists on sitting and waiting to die, I have nothing to say." I'm afraid that tomorrow, we may not be able to find out what is going on. ”

Lan Shi sighed slightly: "If we still don't know anything at that time, I think we can only arrest the person who presided over the election campaign and torture him to extract a confession." ”

This...... Isn't this an egg hitting a stone? Not to mention who the cunning Yubun Palace will send, one thing is for sure, the person sent can at least easily kill the illusionist who is running for the top ten. If you don't even have the ability to control the overall situation, in case these people from all over the world may be loyal and righteous people who come from all directions, and want to go against this thief Yuwen Palace, wouldn't Yuwen Palace lose troops for no reason, don't say that it is the Yuwen Palace that is already wise, even ordinary people will not be so easy to capsize in the gutter.

"Senior brother...... This ......" Sodi said with a slight wrinkle: "Okay!" She naturally knows the truth that the teacher's life cannot be violated, and Suo Di is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, all she thinks about is Lan Shi's safety.

"Perhaps, we were oversimplifying the problem from the beginning. Lan Shi said slowly. There was no excessive tone, and the voice was like a morning mountain fog, hazy and floating.

"What?" Sodi's eyes widened, Lan Shi had been suspicious for the past two days, making her feel like her whole brain was about to explode.

Lan Shi let out a sigh of relief and said, "At first, I was bent on killing these people who participated in the election campaign to ensure that no matter what the Yuwen Palace had any bad intentions, it would not go well. It's just that now that I think about it, because of this, I have neglected too many details around me. Now that I think about it, Bliss, which can be called the first in the Far North, died of poison, and Red Butterfly, who is known as the world's first strange woman, also died. I can't figure it out anymore as a matter of course. ”

Sodi's eyes lit up and he said, "Do you mean the red butterfly?"

Lan Shi nodded, and said thoughtfully: "Maybe, I don't understand, I just guess that the red butterfly is so powerful, it is unlikely that it will die so easily." There is no doubt that a top-notch master, even though he is fighting against an opponent as strong as himself, is narrowly defeated by someone in the shadows. But even if Red Butterfly was injured accidentally, do you think such a powerful illusionist would be so stupid as not to understand his own injuries? In order to cover up his injuries, he used the illusion power of an illusionist's roots to bluff and create an illusion? Moreover, Red Butterfly once killed the first king's concubine, and turned into a concubine to cause chaos in the entire kingdom, if she hadn't been subdued later, I am afraid that she would have been the queen above ten thousand people, which would be a great crime to destroy the nine clans. Even now, she is still the target of the entire imperial court, no matter how strong Yuwen Palace is, it will not blatantly compete with the king for a skilled red butterfly, and then Yuwen Palace's subordinates are like clouds, there is not much more red butterfly, and there is naturally a lot less red butterfly, if Yuwen Palace wants to know, it will naturally kill red butterfly without hesitation for the sake of the overall situation. ”

After hearing this, Sodi was extremely surprised, and said, "Senior brother, in this way, the purpose of the red butterfly is not to campaign, but to have another purpose?" Sodi had to say regretfully: "It's a pity that she's dead, and we can no longer know what her true purpose is." ”

"That's fine. Lan Shi frowned: "It's just that I've always felt that the red butterfly who is over 100 years old definitely doesn't even understand such a simple truth, and it is impossible for her to die under the messy magic power caused by herself." ”

This is also true, a person who is over 100 years old has seen too much in this world, even if she has a great purpose, it is impossible for her not to even understand the truth of 'keeping the green mountains here, not afraid of no firewood'.

"Senior brother means that the red butterfly was not so seriously injured at all, so it is impossible for her to die under the chaos of the illusion power?, but secretly ended up being assassinated by others?"

"Perhaps!" said Lan Shi, "but who is that man? And don't you think the entire Moon Pavilion is more secretive?I don't think the people who came to the forces of Yuwen Palace are by no means so rare. Thinking about it, many of the people who have been staying for a short time are gone, and the streets and alleys are full of notices from Yujun, and I think the people who come here must be because of this, and the people who dare to come to Zhuyue Xuan are also among the top illusionists in one of the best, so why do you want to leave since you came? Isn't it a contradiction?"

Sodi Huoran understood something, her face suddenly turned pale, and she said in horror: "They, they were killed?"

If that's right, it should be. Lan Shi took a big breath of fresh air, and even his Adam's apple kept rolling up and down. If it was really as he had figured out, would he be able to control his emotions? How many illusionists would he be? Since it was night and he could be killed in full view of everyone? How great strength would it take? Just thinking about it was terrifying!

"Could it be the one who has been hiding behind the scenes?" Sodi couldn't imagine.

"No!" Lan Shi shook his head, his expression heavy: "And I should be able to conclude that it was Mei Sanniang who did it now." ”

"Mei Sanniang?" asked Sodi in surprise. Lan Shi still looked uncertain, but now he has become so determined, and Lan Shi is always in an orderly manner, Sodi is still messy except for a messy mind.

Lan Shi turned his head and stared indifferently at the dozen or so crystal clear flying knives on the wood again. After a while, he said, "Mei Sanniang's assassination technique is really clever, but she has overlooked a very important detail. ”
