Chapter 218: Assassination "Killed"
"This Nima is too realistic!"
Seeing Zhu Xiaoqi screaming from the air and falling to the ground in the rain of blood, and being nailed to the ground by the long sword shot by the assassin out of his hand, Long Rui couldn't help but be secretly speechless.
The moment the long sword pierced Zhu Xiaoqi's body, even if he knew that he was acting, Long Rui's mood couldn't help but tighten, as if that sword really wanted to take Zhu Xiaoqi's life.
Whether it is the killer Zheng Mengxiang or Zhu Xiaoqi, they have shown their real strength in this battle, so although the ending has long been doomed, the process is still very exciting.
In the eyes of everyone, Zhu Xiaoqi had tried his best to resist in the face of an unexpected assassination, but in the end he was still not lucky enough to escape the catastrophe.
Meng Geli looked at Zhu Xiaoqi who was nailed to the ground by a long sword, and his head went blank. At the moment of crisis, she didn't make a move, and Aunt Xue didn't make a move, and the young man who was still vigorously pursuing her a few minutes ago was assassinated under their noses. This choice is almost cruel to her, but it is also helpless. Her identity is just a star, and in such a situation, she can't do anything. Even if she is accompanied by a master, in this case, her normal reaction will not be to save people, but to protect herself.
Reasonably, her decisions were all right, and keeping the secrets of the blood clan was definitely more important than saving the life of an outsider. However, Zhu Xiaoqi's shout of "protect her" before the battle was like a stone thrown into her heart, making her unable to face the ending in front of her with peace of mind, nor convincing herself to forgive her retreat at that moment.
The assassin succeeded in one blow, and did not stop for a second, and his body turned into a streamer and fled far away. That sword pierced directly through Zhu Xiaoqi's left chest, stabbing him in the heart with precision, and his task was complete. No one can survive such a terrible sword wound, unless there is a miracle, Zhu Xiaoqi is dead.
Several of Zhu Xiaoqi's entourage did not chase after them, and they rushed to the middle of the field quickly.
"Young master!"
"Young master!"
The cry of grief made everyone who heard it tremble. Even if Zhu Xiaoqi's behavior is unpleasant, in the face of such a change, many people still can't help but feel sorry for this famous young man.
Meng Geli resolutely stepped forward. She had already decided in her heart that as long as Zhu Xiaoqi still had a trace of qi, she would do her best to save him.
Blood, shed all over the ground, shocking. Zhu Xiaoqi's front and back have also been soaked with flowers. The few attendants surrounding him did not dare to use the long sword that pierced his whole body, and could only gently cover his wounds with their hands.
Lying on the ground, Zhu Xiaoqi's face was pale, and his expression was hideous and painful.
Seeing Meng Ge approaching, he raised his head with difficulty, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I...... Regret it, I should let him ...... Protect me ......"
Struggling, he finished a sentence intermittently, blood foamed from the corners of his mouth, and the light in his eyes dimmed for a moment. This sentence seemed to exhaust all his strength, and he was tired and wanted to rest, so he finally closed his eyes.
"Young master, no—" Someone called frantically.
"Young master......" Some people wept with sorrow.
"Revenge!" someone knelt down and roared angrily.
Under the veil, Meng Geli's face turned pale.
Her body trembled slightly, as if she was in great pain. It wasn't until Aunt Xue's hand held her hand that she took a deep breath and turned to leave.
A carriage came quickly, and Zhu Xiaoqi was lifted into the carriage. The carriage galloped away, and the group of people brought by Zhu Xiaoqi followed closely behind.
The crowd of onlookers dispersed, taking away the news of Zhu Xiaoqi's assassination, and the news quickly spread to Haiyue City and all parts of Tianlong with their departure.
Upon hearing the news, some people rejoiced, some were sad, some were confused, some were surprised, and more were regretful.
And the people of Sea Moon City fell into deep sorrow. God didn't give Tianlong a chance, an outstanding young man who was deeply loved and supported by them, a soldier who left a strong mark on the history of Tianlong's army, and might even change the history of Tianlong, left suddenly. Li Mubai's tragedy was repeated in his righteous son, and the centennial gate was finally lost to a cruel fate.
People spontaneously gathered in front of the Li Mansion, waiting silently, waiting for the Li family's final confirmation. Perhaps the kind people still hold on to a hope, looking forward to the miracle that will befall this miraculous boy again. Until the last moment, they don't want to give up their heroes, even if he really leaves, they want to accompany him on the last stretch of the road, let him remember the people here, remember the love here, and remember the way back.
Of course, there are also people who are happy.
Wu Chen and Zheng Changfeng, who witnessed the whole incident, fell into extreme joy after a short period of shock. They didn't expect that Zhu Xiaoqi would encounter a sudden assassination in this place at this time, and finally be killed on the spot by the long sword.
"It's so relieving! Who did it?" Sitting in the carriage, Zheng Changfeng smiled brightly. Although he was not able to take revenge himself, it was a quick thing to witness the death of his enemy. If it weren't for this accident, he wouldn't know when his revenge would be avenged. With Zhu Xiaoqi's current status, if he is smooth in the future, the gap between them will continue to widen, and in the end, he may not even have the courage to trouble each other. The sword that fell from the sky cut the knot in his heart and refreshed him.
"Who knows!" Wu Chen sighed lightly, "With just such a sword, a legend is over, and my heart is a little empty." ”
He thought of something, but it was impossible to tell Zheng Changfeng. He was secretly glad that he had made the right choice. The second prince was really ruthless, and this guy who made everyone feel a headache was solved by him cleanly. In the future, Tianlong will definitely have his position in Wu Chen, and at that time, he will impress his fiancée and let her learn to be an obedient little woman.
When Long Zhanyue heard the news, she was a little skeptical at first, but later believed it. The killer invited by 20 million gold coins should indeed have this level, and his two henchmen, showing enough loyalty, successfully solved a problem for him.
"It's done very well. What you lose, you will be doubled. The information coming out of the snow palace made Xu Hu and Xu Ming ecstatic. They soon notified the killer guild and paid Zheng Mengxiang a gratuity.
"I didn't expect that we would have such a high status in Haiyue City, it's really moving!" Hearing that the people surrounded the Li Mansion with three layers inside and three layers outside, Zhu Xiaoqi couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Civilians are the most simple and kind, you don't need to do too much for them, you just need to let them see a glimmer of light and feel a little warmth, and they will keep you in mind and give you the highest reward.
"Are you enjoying it?" Li Xiaowan looked at him with an unhappy expression.
This guy just finished the fight and went to pick up girls again, and he also made up the news that he had been assassinated. When she heard the news, she almost cried on the spot. But after calming down and thinking about it, this villain is the kind of person who has a headache in Hades, and it is unlikely that something will really happen, so he hurried back home with tears in his eyes.
As soon as she got home, she saw someone sitting in the hall with her legs crossed, drinking tea, and she was completely convinced and lost her temper.
"Sister, this is a temporary decision, I don't have time to inform you. Zhu Xiaoqi stuck out his tongue. It's not that he didn't have time to inform the old lady, but he was so excited that he accidentally forgot about it.
"I don't care about you in the future, just do whatever you want. Li Xiaowan was a little sour by this unconscionable guy, "But you have to let me know, so that I don't have to worry about it." ”
"Sister, I was wrong. Zhu Xiaoqi immediately forged. Li Xiaowan glanced at him resentfully and turned her back.
"Why don't you take it as an example, okay?" Zhu Xiaoqi stepped forward, wrapped his arms around her waist against her back, and swallowed tofu while softly persuading.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you! Those people outside, you can find a way to solve it yourself!" Li Xiaowan's face was hot, and she hurriedly broke free and hurriedly walked out.
"You livestock, even take advantage of your sister?" Long Rui poked his head out of the door and said with a look of disdain.
"I'm comforting her. What's the matter, how did the pure feelings between sisters and brothers become so evil in your eyes?" No matter how thick-skinned Zhu Xiaoqi was, he couldn't help but feel a little hot. He does regard Li Xiaowan as his own sister, and he still has a strong affection for each other, but he can't help but make some intimate movements, and even have some dark thoughts when he comes into contact with her.
If Li Xiaowan resists, he will not make any more moves beyond the boundary. But what's worse is that this sister seems to be too indulgent to him, and no matter what he does, she will at best ignore him. In front of him, the heroine who once attracted the attention of the world turned into a woman as gentle as water.
"Anyway, you are not related by blood, and it is a good thing that the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders. Long Rui smiled.
"You're very open-minded! I heard that there are three sisters in the Feng family, are you planning to accept them together?" Zhu Xiaoqi pulled the topic to him.
"Not that daring. One phoenix has no regrets is enough for me to have a headache, isn't it a long life for me to provoke others?Besides, that ice and snow god of war is too terrifying, I palpitate when I see her, and if I get a little closer to her, I feel like I'm going to be frozen into a popsicle......" Long Rui shook his head and said.
"For such a woman, someone has to warm her bed and sleep with her! It's a pity that she wears a mask all day long, and I don't know if she looks pretty or not. ”
Long Rui looked at him like an idiot: "If she hears this, you will die an ugly death." ”
"That woman, don't provoke you, or it will end badly. A halal voice sounded suddenly, and Zheng Mengxiang quietly appeared at the door of the hall.
"That anti-flower thief thing, you have to use it!" Zhu Xiaoqi, who was taken aback, sighed lightly.
"The money is in hand. That's half of yours. Zheng Mengxiang threw over the bundled thick stack of golden tickets.
Zhu Xiaoqi received it in his hand, untied it and counted it carefully, picking up one from time to time to carefully check the authenticity.
Zheng Mengxiang was speechless, this Nima is too shocking, right?
"The horror of the god of ice and snow is not under Meng Yi. Cherish your life, so that I will have a chance to make up for the regret of not being able to kill you in the future. When the time comes, will your worth become an astronomical amount?" He glanced at Zhu Xiaoqi deeply, his eyes a little complicated.
"He's pretending to be very deep!" Zhu Xiaoqi directly ignored him and turned to Long Rui and said.
"Sluts are usually very hypocritical, you should know it!" Long Rui smiled.
These people have all learned badly in the past ten years, what the hell, Zhu Xiaoqi thought depressedly.
Zheng Mengxiang, who was treated as air, disappeared like air.
"Tomorrow, there will be a storm. The war between the Li family and the second prince will also start. Zhu Xiaoqi stared at Long Rui and said solemnly.
"Do you have the evidence?" Long Rui asked in a deep voice with an awe-inspiring gaze.
Zhu Xiaoqi nodded heavily.
"I will support you. For the sake of Tianlong, what my uncle doesn't want to do, I can do it for me, even if it is notorious because of it. Long Rui took a deep breath and said firmly.
"There are some things that we can't spread out right now. Therefore, a qiē can only be carried out under the smokescreen of the struggle for imperial power. Zhu Xiaoqi said again.
"What if it comes true one day?" asked Long Rui with a frown.
"I really haven't thought about this question......" Zhu Xiaoqi scratched his head.
"Then think about it...... This time, Qin Lao took action in person, which means that there is not much time left for us. Long Rui smiled bitterly.
"Let's wait until the confrontation drill is over!" Zhu Xiaoqi smiled bitterly.
"Hmm. By the way, I received an invitation to the banquet, did you receive it?"
"Nope. Zhu Xiaoqi shook his head.
"Hmm. It was just sent today, and it was just delivered to me. It may be that you were not considered because you died. You'd better come back to life first!" Long Rui said with a smile.
