Chapter 18: The Cold Breath of Death
That fierce face was infinitely magnified in Gao Ming's eyes, and the sharp blade reflected the cold glow of the cold forest.
The cold of the dagger blade seemed to cross time and space and hit Gao Ming. Gao Ming's neck seemed to be enveloped by a cold wind, which made his heart cold.
Gao Ming stood in place in horror, a faint voice in his head shouting, "Run, run!"
However, Gao Ming knew that at this moment, he couldn't do anything.
Gao Ming had lost the sense of his hands and feet, this was the first time he faced the fear of death, he seemed to be face to face with the god of death, and the god of death breathed a breath of ice with ice ballast at him, which made him stiff.
Gao Ming fell into despair.
Could it be that my new life is about to end before it begins?
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept by, and a tall figure appeared in front of Gao Ming.
This person was slightly taller than Gao Ming, and at this time, Zhengping stretched out his right hand, and firmly held the right wrist of the assailant in his palm.
That fierce face turned into extreme horror in an instant.
But the figure that suddenly appeared did not pause, only to see him pull his lunge and step back, and slam his right hand down fiercely.
There was a loud "boom", and the murderer had been slammed to the ground.
The ground was dusty, the steward's face was clumped together in pain, his throat was convulsed, and blood was gushing out of his mouth, nose, and ears like a spring. The sharp blade of the murderer was powerlessly thrown aside.
Gao Ming was dumbfounded, looking at all this stupidly, and didn't react at all.
The figure straightened up, a man in his twenties, with a broad forehead, thick eyebrows, a long face, bright eyes and warm eyes, broad shoulders and long body, quite imposing. This person is holding a folding fan in his left hand and is wearing a plain robe, which shows that he is suave.
The young man gently patted Gao Ming's shoulder and said, "Little brother, are you okay?"
Gao Ming's body was excited, his whole body was warm, he felt that his body was alive again, and he hurriedly bowed down and thanked him: "Thank you for this big brother's rescue, the grace of saving your life, it is unforgettable!"
"Eh, it's serious, it's serious. It was the poor hospitality in the house that frightened the little brother, and here, I apologize to the little brother. As he spoke, the man folded the fan and bowed respectfully to Gao Ming.
Gao Ming hurriedly returned the salute, and shouted in his mouth: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”
Gao Ming was still shocked at this time, and his face turned pale.
The man stepped aside and picked up the dagger that had fallen to the ground, the blade was cold, and the crisp sound was continuous.
"A knife is still a good knife, and such a good knife is not something that can be bought casually. ”
The steward was still convulsing on the side, and the blood was gushing endlessly, and it seemed that he would not survive.
Gao Ming felt a little unbearable in his heart, but he was very resentful, and at the same time, he was a little frightened.
The man was calm, stepped forward, lifted his left arm of the steward, and sure enough, he found the scabbard of the dagger, pulled it out, put the knife into the sheath, turned around and handed it to Gao Ming: "This knife, let it be disposed of by the little brother." ”
Gao Ming took the handle dagger indifferently, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the steward's face covered with sticky blood out of the corner of his eye, and his scarlet eyes kept turning outward in pain, which was really terrifying.
Gao Ming's hands couldn't help but tremble, his hands trembled, and he almost dropped the dagger blade to the ground. Then he gritted his teeth fiercely, took the dagger tightly in his hand, let out a long breath, and turned his head away, paying no attention to the dying man on the ground.
At this moment, a sigh seemed to fall from the sky.
Gao Ming's face changed drastically.
I heard another voice coming, but it turned out to be Bai Sheng's voice. Gao Ming was relieved.
I only heard Bai Sheng say: "I'm sorry, Brother Gao Ming, I frightened you." Changqing, tonight for the distinguished guests, you go to the palace in person, take the emperor over, and have a light meal together. ”
Gao Ming was surprised in his heart, the emperor is so casual here?
The young man next to him responded, "Yes." ”
The sound in the air disappeared, coming and going without a trace.
The man named Changqing turned around and asked Gao Ming, "Little brother, how did you meet this guy?"
Gao Ming immediately told him about his loss.
Changqing said: "I see. There are many palaces in this palace, and it is indeed easy to get lost. I'll take my little brother back. ”
Gao Ming thanked him. After hesitating for a moment, he still asked, "What should I do about this on the ground?"
Changqing didn't look at it, but said to Gao Ming kindly: "Don't worry about him, someone will take care of it." ”
Gao Ming didn't know that at this time, somewhere in the palace, Bai Shengzheng, the prince of Xin, beckoned, summoned a person, and ordered: "Go to the south study and let their people come and clean up." ”
......
Changqing took Gao Ming through the palaces, and Gao Ming saw Lu Luo running over in a hurry.
When Lu Luo approached, Chang Qing's face turned cold, and he said sternly: "Lu Luo, but you are in charge of taking care of Brother Gao Ming? Do you know how dangerous it was just now?"
Gao Ming hurriedly stepped forward and pulled down Changqing, and said, "Brother Changqing, don't blame Lu Luo, it's me who ran around myself, not just Lu Luo's business." ”
Lu Luo also lowered his head at the moment, twisted the corners of his clothes with both hands, frowned, his lips were twisted together, and he looked pitiful, and said in a low and earnest voice: "Lu Luo, Lu Luo will never dare again......"
Changqing glanced at Lu Luo twice, and finally sighed and said, "Forget it, Lu Luo, you take good care of Brother Gao Ming, I'll go and invite the emperor." ”
Lu Luo bowed his head.
I saw Changqing throw out the folding fan in his hand, and the folding fan grew when he saw the wind, and it turned into a three-foot length.
Changqing got up, stepped on the folding fan and flew away, disappearing into the dim night in an instant.
Gao Ming looked surprised, is this the legendary Imperial Weapon Flight?
Unexpectedly, this Changqing turned out to be a profound cultivator. No wonder the vicious Assassin could easily be defeated.
However, thinking that there is Bai Sheng, a senior cultivator, in the mansion, this is really normal.
Seeing this situation in front of him, Gao Ming's heart became excited, this is his own yearning, outside the three mountains of the sword, between the five lakes of demon subjugation!
After Changqing left, Lu Luo hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Gao Ming's arm: "Childe, how are you?"
Gao Ming comforted softly: "Don't worry, Lu Luo, I'm fine, unscathed." ”
Lu Luo blamed himself and said apologetically: "It's all to blame for Lu Luo's poor care and letting Childe be so frightened." When Lu Luo heard that Childe was in danger, he was very worried. ”
Gao Ming said apologetically: "No, no, it's me who is wrong, I'm sorry, Lu Luo, it's all my fault for running around, worrying you, and scolding you." ”
Lu Luo waved his hand again and again: "Son, don't say that, it's Lu Luo who didn't take good care of Childe." ”
Then, I saw Lu Luo smile slightly, blinked with a little sly, and said, "Actually, the young master scolded Lu Luo, and Lu Luo is not afraid." Every time, the young master put on a very stern look, but as long as Lu Luo pretended, the young master was embarrassed to scold Lu Luo anymore. ”
Gao Ming laughed out loud, worthy of being Lu Luo.
The two chatted and walked away, and the maidservants in the palace came and went to do their own things, and everything was the same as before.
Such a major incident of assassination in the palace seems to have no waves.
