Chapter 62: Black Arrows, Pursuit in the Night
Ji Yuan had seen Shang Zeyi at the night banquet, had seen Shang Zeyi's methods to frame Li Konghan, and knew that the younger brother of the monarch of the Shang Kingdom was a lawless lord.
Now that the other party came to the door, he knew that his identity had been exposed, but he still shouted a protest timidly: "I am the envoy of the Qi State, and if I die in the Shang State, it will cause disputes." ”
Shang Zeyi was unmoved, and said with a smile: "I can't ask for it." ”
The reason why he wanted to kill Ji Yuan was to cut off one of the arms that Lin Ziqi had left in the Shang Kingdom, although Lin Ziqi would continue to send people over after that, but the gap between this back and forth left them a lot of time, and invisibly created many advantages.
The enemies of the Baiguozhen dispute have long expanded from the Li family to the Qi State, and they have long recognized that the Qi State has a back-up move, but they don't know why they are afraid, so they also go in two ways, on the one hand, they continue to explore intelligence, and on the other hand, they cut off the hands and feet of the Qi State and try their best to delay time.
As for what Ji Yuan said about causing entanglement between the two countries, Shang Zeyi couldn't ask for it, if the two countries were really in chaos, his marriage with Lin Zixuan could also be stopped.
But he knew very well in his heart that the emperor of his own family and the prince of Qi were both calculating in their hearts, and they would not let the marriage be canceled unless they had to.
Ji Yuan shouted almost with all his strength, intending to attract the attention of the embassy guards, but after a long time there was no response, and he understood that the courtyard had been banned by Shang Zeyi with energy, and people outside would not find out what was happening here.
With this preparation, Shang Zeyi was not in a hurry to kill Ji Yuan, he had some questions that Ji Yuan needed to answer before taking his life.
He crossed the threshold and entered the house, and he didn't have much defense in the face of Ji Yuan, who was trembling, but prepared to smash Ji Yuan unconscious with a knife, take him away from here and torture him slowly.
Before he could use his knife, he suddenly had a black arrow shot out of Ji Yuan's hand, attacking the door in front of him, Shang Zeyi subconsciously gave way, and Ji Yuan took advantage of this gap to cross the threshold and escape from the hospital.
It was also Shang Ze's carelessness, but he didn't expect Ji Yuan to have a stunt, and the prohibition set up in the courtyard could only prevent outside from watching, and could not prevent people inside from escaping.
Ji Yuan escaped into the darkness when he left the courtyard, and Shang Zeyi caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye, Ji Yuan put his clothes on the reverse as soon as he fled, and the opposite side was pure black, not only that, but he also held a black bow in his hand when he fled.
Contacting the previous arrows, it is not difficult to see that Ji Yuan is actually an excellent archer.
In just a moment, Ji Yuan had already escaped from the courtyard, but he didn't shout loudly, obviously knowing that these guards were just decorations for Shang Zeyi, even if he shouted out, he wouldn't ask for any help, but would expose his location and attract Shang Zeyi.
The biggest taboo for an archer is to expose his position and be approached, as long as he exposes his position, Shang Zeyi will never be afraid to kill Ji Yuan in front of the guards.
Jinlou has a curfew at night, so there are still few people on the street at night, Ji Yuan is dressed in black, and his goal is very simple, to find the fifth princess Lin Zixuan.
Only by finding Lin Zixuan sitting in the post embassy can Shang Zeyi retreat willingly.
He knew where Lin Zixuan was, but Shang Zeyi also knew Ji Yuan's purpose.
So after Ji Yuan escaped from the courtyard, Shang Zeyi followed the traces and went to the small courtyard in the south of the city.
Both of them were running one after the other, and although they didn't see each other, they both knew by perception that they were very close to each other.
Shang Zeyi was not in a hurry, but Ji Yuan, who was in front of him, was a little anxious.
According to such a distance and the speed gap between the two, Ji Yuan will eventually slow down Shang Zeyi to find Lin Zixuan, at that time, Shang Zeyi waited for the rabbit, and Ji Yuan threw himself into the net.
After a simple analysis, he knew that this road would not work, and Ji Yuan decisively changed his thinking.
He stopped abruptly in the middle of the run, shot an arrow with a feeling in the darkness, and then changed to darkness to continue hiding.
Since he will eventually slow down Shang Zeyi, he will deal with Shang Zeyi until Lin Zixuan returns.
Today, Lin Zixuan did not return to the small courtyard in the south of the city, obviously stumbling over Shang Zeyi's means, but only for a moment, the fifth princess of Qi State, the Holy Division of the Burial Sword Mansion is one of the strongest people in the world, no matter how strong the opponent is, no matter how meticulous the conspiracy, it can't stop her from returning.
Before that, Ji Yuan had to continue to deal with Shang Zeyi and not let the other party support the small courtyard in the south of the city, otherwise if Shang Zeyi, whose realm had recovered, there might be an accident.
In the dark night, a black arrow silently struck Shang Zeyi, and he grabbed it with one hand.
"I want to be tough. Shang Zeyi pinched it hard, and easily folded the arrow.
He also just wanted to test how well he recovered, so he didn't ink, pulled out his heart ape from behind, and suddenly the cold light was wanton.
In the darkness, there was a sharp gaze staring at Shang Zeyi, he was all black and blended into the night, black clothes, black shoes, black bows, and black arrows.
Very few people know that the black arrow, which ranks thirty-sixth in the rivers and lakes, is actually a doorman in the Lin Zi period.
Ji Yuan, a guest of the Prince Gate, is also an assassin Black Arrow, who kills people with bows and arrows, never misses, and never shows his identity.
I can't hide it today, and I finally revealed my identity.
Shang Zeyi was not curious about the identity of his black arrow, but in his eyes, the identity of Ji Yuanmenke was more important, and that was the reason why Shang Zeyi wanted to arrest him and kill him.
However, it was not easy to find a master who was proficient in concealment in the dark, and Shang Zeyi stepped on the ground on his toes and ran quickly.
He couldn't see the figure in the night, he only felt a qi machine tightly locked on him, so he ran quickly, constantly changing directions in the middle of the way, trying to take the opportunity to get rid of the qi lock.
But like a cautious and patient hunter, this qi machine always watched him carefully and with great determination, never striking until he was sure of it.
Shang Zeyi was still moving rapidly, and at the same time, his eyes kept shooting around, trying to find the hidden enemy from the night.
But the people in the night always hide themselves in the night, and the black Ji Yuan blends with the night and can hardly be seen.
He was also constantly moving, adjusting his best position to shoot the arrow and avoiding Shang Zeyi's strafing gaze, the corners of his thin mouth were closed tightly, not showing the snow-white teeth inside, his calloused hands were very steady, and he always maintained the state of the longbow full moon, without even a trace of trembling.
In his sight, Shang Zeyi was like a headless fly, but he was also constantly approaching his best position for the arrow.
One more step is there.
Ji Yuan, who has changed his role from the Prince Gate guest to the assassin Black Arrow, seems to have changed his temperament, becoming more dark and violent, at this moment, he not only wants to hide until Lin Zixuan returns, but wants to try to make Shang Zeyi seriously injured and make it easier for Qi Guo's actions in the Golden Tower.
One hundred steps!
It is his best distance to shoot the arrow, and he is sure that even if Xia Donglai comes in person, he can't guarantee that he will be unharmed.
This is the absolute confidence of a Returning Arrow who has abandoned all his defenses and poured all his strength into an arrow.
Ji Yuan's breath was stable, and he didn't slack off because he was about to complete the goal, only the muscles of his arm suddenly tensed, pulling the last trace of the longbow to gain the greatest strength, and the next moment he had to let go of the arrow.
One step later, Ji Yuan was completely sure that he would seriously injure him, but Shang Zeyi stopped at the last moment.
"Found you. Shang Zeyi suddenly raised his head in the direction of Ji Yuan, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
Ji Yuan, who had night eyes, saw Shang Zeyi stop the last step, without any luck, and quickly retreated.
He knew exactly he was exposed.
Even if Shang Zeyi hadn't reached the best position to shoot the arrow, his arrow still hit.
Ji Yuan let go of the hand that was holding the bowstring, and with a low roar in the night, the black arrow was like a spirit snake, and with a deadly qi machine, it quickly and silently attacked towards Shang Zeyi's heart.
This arrow was very fast, almost in the blink of an eye, but it still fell into the air, and was easily dodged by Shang Zeyi, inserted at Shang Zeyi's feet, exploded a big crater, and continued to burrow into the ground.
It can be seen how powerful this arrow is.
Ji Yuan knew that this arrow was still a failure, but the difference between one step and a world of difference, Shang Zeyi did not reach the best position for him to shoot the arrow, so he escaped this arrow.
Ji Yuan was like an assassin in the night, retreating quickly after missing an arrow without any hesitation.
But Shang Zeyi would let him retreat so easily, now that he has appeared, don't think about going back to the night.
Shang Zeyi rose into the air like a big bird, leaped over several feet, stepped on the eaves again, and shot away again.
Ji Yuan jumped backwards in the face of Shang Zeyi to widen the distance, although there were no long eyes on the back of his head, but every foot fell to the exact position, and he kept retreating on the roof.
Ji Yuan jumped and shot arrows, and the black arrows blended into the night, weaving into a defensive net, constantly preventing Shang Zeyi from approaching.
Shang Zeyi was blocked by the arrow for a while, naturally some distance behind Ji Yuan's figure, seeing that Ji Yuan was about to blend into the night again, Shang Zeyi immediately made a decision, waving the frost knife Mu Yue suddenly appeared.
With this knife, Shang Zeyi felt completely different from before, the energy in his body was running more smoothly, and he could even hear a slight pleasant sound from the knife when he passed through the heart ape.
When the moon shines in the sky, the moonlight flows from above the heart ape, faster, sharper, and more elusive, and it is in front of Ji Yuan in an instant, and it is impossible to resist!
Ji Yuan saw that it was too late when he raised the knife, and as soon as the knife came to his eyes in the moonlight, he subconsciously raised the black bow in front of his eyebrows, and had no choice but to take the knife hard.
As a master of bows and arrows, he is not only good at long-distance archery, but also at close quarters, the frost knife Mu Yue hit the black bow, Ji Yuan drew a circle with the bow, unloaded most of the strength, and took the initiative to take a step back.
He wanted to take this step away, to return to the darkness, and then slowly try to figure it out.
As soon as he stepped forward, he heard a cynical voice around him.
"Don't leave if you're here!"
