readx; Li Xuanbai looked at the most dangerous assassin, and the Ziyuan Dao Sword in his hand was gently raised, and the tip of the sword pointed at the burly assassin who was walking towards him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

......

Somewhere in Kyoto's East Castle, a high-rise private room.

A young man in a purple and black gorgeous wide-sleeved robe walked to the window, squinted, and looked condescendingly at a place in the dark scene. A man dressed as a martial artist of a similar age on the side stepped forward respectfully and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what should I do next?"

The prince said softly: "My second brother is really stupid. actually recruited Zhang Changzhi, a stupid person, to make a face. Since he wanted to die, Bengu helped him. ”

The respectful man raised his head slightly, only to see that it was Xue Zhi. He boldly speculated: "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean to help Li Xuanbai?"

The prince chuckled and nodded.

Xue Zhi bent down and retreated.

......

Li Xuanbai looked at the burly man in front of him and asked coldly, "Who sent you?"

The burly assassin in the lead did not answer, and his speed increased sharply.

The waist knife in his hand was swung violently.

Li Xuanbai saw the cold light approaching, and his body was slightly to the side. didn't expect the knife to slide back in the air, and a knife slid across Li Xuanbai's shoulder, making a 'stab' sound.

The Ziyuan Dao Sword in Li Xuanbai's hand picked the assassin's waist knife open, and then took a few steps back.

Thinking about the move just now, there should be a five-grade strength. Li Xuanbai is now only in the eight-rank realm, which is far from the same, just like the sentence he said in Danfengyan, the ghost city of Xudu, there is a world of difference. Li Xuanbai is not his opponent at all. He glanced back at Zhou Hao, who had fainted on the ground, thinking about how to retreat.

The burly assassin seemed to see Li Xuanbai's retreat, and the waist knife in his hand was raised again, and his right foot was on the tip of the ground, rising into the air, and the harrier turned over. flipped out a beautiful style in mid-air, and the waist knife stabbed straight into Li Xuanbai's heart.

This blow is a must-kill.

At that moment, a cold light shot from afar, straight at the assassin's sword-holding right hand.

Li Xuanbai didn't have time to think about it, so he picked up Zhou Hao, who was injured and unconscious, and hurriedly fled to the entrance of the alley.

The assassin pushed out with a sword, blocking the hidden weapon back, and when he looked at the ground again, Li Xuanbai had already escaped a hundred paces away.

The Assassin glanced at the bustling banks of the Luoshui River ahead, and he made a decision.

Withdraw!

Li Xuanbai escaped from the deep alley with the injured Zhou Hao, came to the front door of Liulifang, and saw that there were businessmen and scholars looking for pleasure all around. That's when I put my mind at ease. Several house slaves who came together at the front door of Liulifang saw that their master Li Xuanbai was injured, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Li Xuanbai didn't say anything, gently carried Zhou Hao into the carriage, and then asked the house slave to drive away.

Inside the car.

Li Xuanbai thought about today's events, and there were too many strange things.

first had a conflict with Zhu Zhanzhao in Liulifang, and then revealed the conspiracy with the red-sleeved girl who was ostensibly an Oiran but was actually a fine work of Beiyan. Later, he secretly met the butcher, but when the butcher was about to tell the answer to the mystery, the butcher was assassinated in front of him.

I always feel like I'm one step behind.

Thinking of this poor step, Li Xuanbai's face was full of anger.

He had to find out what was going on today.

In the back alley of Liulifang, the assassination of the prince of Lu Guogong undoubtedly spread all over the streets and alleys of Kyoto on the second day. It has also become the most appalling street news in Kyoto. The prince of Lu returned to Beijing for more than a month, but he was assassinated. Everyone couldn't help but think of the "floating corpse case" in Kyoto three years ago. I also feel that things seem to be getting more and more confusing.

At the court meeting on the second day, His Majesty the Emperor ordered the Criminal Department to cooperate with Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the assassination of the prince of Lu Guo.
