Chapter 346: Insidious and despicable
The strength of Li Zijun and the woman in black was originally between the best, but because Li Zijun first used magic to take the lead, and then used the sharpness of the 'Sword of Eros' to press forward step by step.
For a moment, the woman in black was almost completely on the defensive, looking precarious. It's just that Li Zijun knows very well in her heart that it is not easy to really defeat this woman in black, and the sword in her hand is actually extraordinary, deliberately avoiding the collision of the 'Sword of Eros', on the one hand, she wants to show weakness to herself, on the other hand, she is only afraid and worried about hurting her own sword.
Li Zijun, who had already learned the insidious woman in black, saw such a scene, and the vigilance in his heart increased a little.
The speed of the woman in black slowed down at an extremely imperceptible speed, and the distance between Li Zijun's 'Sword of Eros' and the sword in her hand instantly became a few points closer.
The defending side tends to consume more power, but Li Zijun didn't think that this situation would appear on the woman in black so soon, and he began to secretly gather power towards the arm holding the sword.
The woman in black didn't seem to want to continue to dodge like this, and the horizontal sword slammed into Li Zijun.
It was at this moment that Li Zijun was waiting, and he instantly entered all the power on his arm into the 'Sword of Eros'. The Sword of Eros' lit up, and the sword rayed forward more than a foot.
Just when Li Zijun thought that he would be able to make a contribution with a sword and successfully injure the woman in black, he found that the sword in the other party's hand had also undergone similar changes.
"Boom!"
Everyone saw a scorching light flash between Li Zijun and the woman in black, and then the two of them bounced to both sides.
After the two of them landed, they didn't wait to stand firmly, and began to unconsciously check the sword in their hands. When they saw that the sword was as smooth as new, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Despicable!" the woman in black turned her head and pointed at Li Zijun and scolded.
"Each other, each other. Actually, don't you have the same thoughts as me?!" Li Zijun didn't expect the woman in black to accuse himself like this, and he couldn't help but sneer at each other.
"I'm going to let you go today. But you must remember: I will come again!" At this time, the guards around Li Zijun and the cavalry led by him also rushed to hear the news, and the woman in black saw that there was no more chance, so she dropped a sentence and turned away.
"The lower official was negligent and brought such a person here, if it weren't for the vigilance of the Grand Duke, I would have caused a big disaster, and I asked the Grand Duke to punish him!" After the woman in black left, Barrett hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down in front of Li Zijun to plead guilty.
"You are indeed responsible for negligence in this matter, but the time for this mission is really urgent, and you are unintentional. I'll let you go for the time being!"
"But you have to remember: this is the only time! If you commit it again next time, the two sins will be combined and will never be spared!"
"Xiaguan should keep it in mind and never dare to do it again!" Barrett didn't expect Li Zijun to let himself go so easily, and after being slightly stunned, he immediately assured Li Zijun.
"Alright, get up! Immediately arrange for the wreckage of that carriage to be set on fire, and remember to remind your men not to touch the sawdust on the ground directly! This carriage has been poisoned from top to bottom, and I don't want us to pay unnecessary casualties for this. ”
"Yes!"
"It's just Your Excellency, what about the horses that pull the carts, and kill them too?"
"They were already shocked to death when I first started working with the woman in black. It's just not down yet. Let's burn it too!" Li Zijun returned the sword to the sheath as he spoke.
The sound of the sword in its sheath was like a terminator for the horses pulling the cart, and they crashed to the ground.
Barrett thought that Li Zijun was going to warn him, and his already pale face was a little blue with shock!
Such a misunderstanding Li Zijun naturally had no need to explain, after Barrett conveyed the order. Motioning for Barrett to take him to meet the other 'Poison' master.
Coming to the carriage, Li Zijun turned to look at Shamantha behind him.
Just now, Li Zijun avoided being caught off guard by the woman in black because Shamantha found out that the entire carriage was poisoned and reminded him in time!
Lesson. Li Zijun had to be a little more careful than before, after getting the confirmation that Shamantha was 'fine'. Only then did he personally step forward and open the door of the carriage.
Seeing this person in the carriage, Li Zijun couldn't help but be secretly stunned in his heart! It's not that there is anything abnormal about this person. Although he pretended to be frightened as much as possible on the surface, Li Zijun still concluded from his heartbeat and blood flow that the fight between himself and the woman in black just now had no effect on him.
How could this be? Could this be that this person is really the master of 'mixed poison' that he has been looking for? But if he is really so lucky, why should he disguise himself like this?
Thinking of this, a thick dark cloud rose from the bottom of Li Zijun's heart!
"This gentleman, I just frightened you!I will give you daoqian on behalf of the Dongyu Mission!" Li Zijun smiled and bowed to the man in the carriage.
At this moment, the other party's intention was unknown, Li Zijun didn't want to startle the snake, he tried his best to make himself more friendly.
"Who are you?" the man asked, looking at Li Zijun in a 'panic'.
Although he was dazed and ignorant, he was still caught by the careful Li Zijun, and the realization that flashed in his eyes. It is obvious that this person is not really ignorant of Li Zijun's identity!
"Mr. Gehry, this is our Duke of Edlaide of Dongyu, and he is also the head of Dongyu's delegation to visit the Ziqing Empire this time!"
"Archduke, this is Mr. Gehry, whom Felix and I have invited!" Barrett said as he stepped forward and stood between the two of them.
"It turned out to be Mr. Gehry, long admiration, long admiration!" Li Zijun smiled and said politely to him.
"You're the Grand Duke of Edlaide!
"You are the master we invited, I can't deserve such a big gift from you!" Li Zijun grabbed Geri and stopped him from kneeling.
What Li Zijun didn't expect was that this Gary actually showed a little smugness at this time. He thought he had avoided Li Zijun's sight, but in fact, his performances didn't even completely deceive the people around Li Zijun.
Li Zijun was hesitant at first whether to control him directly, but after seeing his performance, he decided to let this guy get away with it for a while, and he hoped that this guy could give him more surprises.
After arranging Gehry's accommodation to the highest standard, Li Zijun invited Barrett back to his room.
"Barrett, the princess's condition is very bad, I am going to ask Gary to examine and treat the princess tomorrow morning, what do you think?" Bringing two so-called 'mixed drugs' masters, one intended to assassinate himself and the other had a bad intention, Li Zijun had to re-examine the Barriet in front of him, and he asked tentatively.
"Can you wait, Grand Duke!" Barrett said with a noticeable hesitation, as if he was still struggling with whether or not to say something.
"Weishenme, Barrett, you know a little bit about the princess's current situation, she really can't delay it any longer!" Li Zijun deliberately pretended to be anxious.
"Grand Duke, I also know that the situation is urgent, but I always feel that there is something wrong with this Gehry. It's just that you asked me to tell him what's wrong, and I can't say why for a while!"
"Didn't Felix and you find him personally, haven't you learned about his background?" Li Zijun's face changed, and his tone became much colder.
"To tell you the truth, the assassin who assassinated you before was indeed personally invited by me, and I have also seen his 'mixing of poison' techniques with my own eyes. Although he is not very clever, when no one is available, I have to go to the doctor when I am sick!But I never expected that he would become like that when he arrived here!" Speaking of this, Barrett glanced at Li Zijun timidly.
"I've already said it, put this matter aside for now!
"I've never heard of this Gary in Toscano beforehand, and I don't know where Lord Felix got him! I thought that Master Colin Feth was the same as me, but after what happened, I don't know Weishenme, and I don't know how I look at him, I think there's something wrong with him!"
Hearing Barrett's words, Li Zijun was silent for a while, and in his heart he basically believed in Barrett's loyalty. It's just that this matter involves whether he can find out the mastermind behind the poisoning of Gladys, so as to dissolve the 'mixed poison' in her body, Li Zijun doesn't dare to be careless at all.
"There's some truth to what you're saying, but if there's nothing wrong with this Gary, we're going to stop him from examining the princess, and we're likely to delay the detoxification of the princess. Do you have any good ways to deal with this?" Li Zijun further probed.
"It's definitely too late to return to Tuscano now, can we try out Gary's abilities in 'Poison Mixing' first?"
"In fact, before the princess returned to China, she also found some 'mixed poison' masters to check on her. It's just that they can only conclude that what the princess is in is 'mixed poison', but as for how to resolve it, all of them are helpless!"
"Grand Duke, you have countless capable people under your command, can you send a subordinate who knows something about 'mixed drugs' to test Gehry's strength. If his level is not high, then no matter what his background and background are, there is no need for us to risk letting him get close to the princess!"
"If he is indeed a master, we can first describe the situation of the princess to him in detail, and see how he responds, and then it is not too late for us to decide whether to use him or not!"
"It seems that this is the only way to go!" Li Zijun seemed to be a little hesitant, but in the end he nodded in agreement with Barrett's suggestion.
"Archduke, may I make a request?" Barrett grimaced, as if he was a little weak about his upcoming request......!
