Chapter Twenty-Five: Assassination
Late at night in the house.
"My lord! Got it! Now others are in Yangchi Town! ”
The men came in a panic to report.
"Good, good, quick! Send more people and let Xuan Niang take them to kill together! I'll see his body tomorrow! ”
Yu Shen was very happy, as long as he killed Xie Lanzhou and helped Xie Wushuang win the throne, he would be able to enjoy this glory and wealth for the rest of his life.
His men received the order and disappeared into the night.
Early the next morning, Yu Yaozhi and Xie Lanzhou went to say goodbye to Shopkeeper Li.
"You, you, this business is so good now, why are you leaving?"
Shopkeeper Li is a person who cherishes talents, he felt that Yu Yaozhi was a good hand in the cooking business at the beginning, and now he suddenly said that he was leaving, and he couldn't help but feel a pity.
"Thank you for the kindness of Shopkeeper Li, thank you here, but I don't want to do this, I still want to make a career by myself."
Yu Miaozhi knows how difficult it is to make a career, and he admires people like Shopkeeper Li who can do all kinds of business well.
"Since you said so, then I don't have to bother to speak, then I can only wish you a smooth road ahead and everything goes well!"
At this moment, a group of black-clothed people came out directly, only to see that a silver needle was about to pierce Xie Lanzhou's throat, just at the last moment.
"Be careful!"
Yu Yaozhi hurriedly pulled Xie Lanzhou, and only then did he escape the catastrophe.
If it weren't for Yu Miaozhi, he might have died, Xie Lanzhou glanced at Yu Miaozhi to express his gratitude.
The shopkeeper Li on the side was so frightened that he quickly hid to the side, where had he seen such a scene, so he had to hide aside in fright and didn't dare to make a sound.
This group of people in black really couldn't sit still, so they would commit murder on the street without scruples, Xie Lanzhou thought so, and sweated in his heart.
There are about 30 people who came this time, and it was really a lot of work, and they did whatever it took to kill me.
"Gongzi Xie, I advise you not to toast, eat and drink, and obediently die, I will leave you a whole corpse!"
Xuan Niang said viciously.
Remembering that last time he almost lost to the boy with the sword, he was not convinced. This time, the young man was not there, but God had eyes.
"Who would wait to be killed by you? We're not stupid! ”
As he spoke, Yu Jiaozhi grabbed Xie Lanzhou's hand and ran in the direction of the Jiang family's weapons shop.
With the two of them alone, there is no chance of winning.
"Don't let them run!"
Rampage along the way, turning the streets upside down.
At this moment, Fang Huai and Huo Zhao were attracted by the movement here, and when they saw that it was Xie Lanzhou, they hurriedly stepped forward to help.
"Who is coming! Who sent you? ”
Huo Zhao stepped forward and shouted, and as he spoke, he took out his portable saber.
"Yo, isn't this General Huo? I advise you not to meddle in your business! ”
Seeing Xuan Niang's signal, a group of black-clothed people made moves one after another, and these black-clothed people were not at the same level as the last time.
While Huo Zhao was making moves with a few others, he inexplicably felt very familiar, as if he had seen these moves somewhere, but he couldn't remember them all of a sudden.
These people are all equipped with unique skills, and the four of them can only barely catch it together.
Xuan Niang knew that it was not appropriate to drag on the assassination on the street for too long, this town was not big, and it would not take long to alarm the officials in this town, and it would be difficult to get out at that time.
So he went straight to Xie Lanzhou and released three dark arrows.
Xie Lanzhou was caught between the front and back, and the dark arrow was about to crash into Xie Lanzhou's chest.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Yu stopped him in front of him.
"My Misfortune!"
Xie Lanzhou's brain was blank, and he hurriedly stepped forward to hug her who was about to fall.
The dark arrow was firmly inserted in the waist of the miserable, and the dark red blood slowly flowed out, and suddenly the face of the miserable became pale.
Xie Lanzhou wanted to pull out the arrow, but he was afraid of the pain, so he could only be helpless on the side, and used his hands to plug the wound, but it was to no avail.
At this time, Jiang Xueyan's father and daughter also rushed to the rescue when they heard the sound.
Xuan Niang saw that the situation was wrong, so she asked her subordinates to evacuate quickly.
"Damn! Evacuate! ”
So the group quickly disappeared into the street, Huo Zhao wanted to chase over to see who was instigating, but when he saw Yu Jiaozhi who fell to the ground, he still gave up.
"Quick! Take her back first! I'm going to find a nearby Langzhong! ”
Jiang Xueyan and Fang Huai hurriedly ran to the nearest medical center, while Xie Lanzhou and Huo Zhao took Yu Yaozhi and ran in the direction of Jiang's house.
Looking at Yu Miaozhi with a painful face in his arms, Xie Lanzhou felt extremely guilty.
She didn't even know what her identity was, but she didn't hesitate to risk her life to defend herself from arrows.
"Don't worry.. I've been hard since I was a kid.. It's going to be fine.."
Although Yu Yaozhi felt pain, he still comforted Xie Lanzhou.
"Okay, I know, stop talking, you'll be fine!"
Xie Lanzhou sped up as he spoke, Lang Zhong arrived quickly, and he was inevitably taken aback when he saw the dark arrow, this is a small place after all, and this kind of injury is too rare.
Seeing this, Lang Zhong hurriedly asked people to prepare to open a knife and pull out the arrow, and asked a few people to wait outside the door, and a few people outside were very anxious, especially Xie Lanzhou.
He didn't dare to think about what he would do if something happened to Yu Yaozhi, he didn't dare to think about it.
After a long time, Xie Lanzhou felt that it had been a long time before Lang Zhong came out of it.
"The arrow was pulled out, but fortunately it was in the waist, not a fatal part. But there is a kind of poison called Qianjinsan on that arrow, which is rare in the world, and if it is not detoxified in time, I am afraid that it will spread throughout the body. ”
Thousands of gold scattered? Isn't that a poison that can only be found in the palace? The antidote is naturally only available to the imperial physicians.
Xie Lanzhou and Huo Zhao glanced at each other, and their thoughts coincided.
"The two of us went to find an antidote, and you are here to take care of her."
Jiang Xueyan and Fang Huai nodded.
"Go and come back!"
So the two of them hurried back to the capital, along the way Xie Lanzhou almost wished that the horse would be faster, he didn't know how Yu Yaozhi was doing now, and his heart was in a mess.
"Your Majesty, calm down, you can't be exposed, I'll go alone, there are many dense forests here, suitable for hiding, you just wait for me here."
Outside the gate of the capital, Huo Zhao decided to go alone.
"How do I calm down? She was shot for me, how could I possibly calm down! If anything goes wrong with her..."
Xie Lanzhou felt that he was almost speechless, and the painful picture of Yu Yaozhi in his arms just now kept flashing in his mind.
He just wanted to get the antidote as soon as possible, and everything else was left behind him.
"Your Majesty! If you go back to the palace now, then all our efforts will be in vain! ”
Xie Lanzhou, who has always been delicate, calm and thoughtful, really collapsed at this time, and even his hands were trembling.
