Volume 12 Chapter 8 Two Swords Leaning on the Sky (7)
However, he was the envoy of the King of Han, but everyone knew that he was just an ordinary person who appeared in Xinting and made his position clear, and no one had the luxury of asking him to participate in the siege, so he naturally retreated to the edge of Xinting. When Yang Ning fell into the siege, he began to retreat silently, as if to avoid the stirring of the true qi in the field, when everyone did not pay attention, he had retreated to the edge of the cliff, as if unintentionally standing with his hands in his hands, a small bronze mirror quietly fell on the palm of his left hand, trembling a few times imperceptibly towards the sun, the light flickered and dimmed, his movements were very hidden, even if someone noticed the abnormality on the cliff, they would only think that it was the reflection of the armor on the clothes or the blades in the hands of those swords-rattling soldiers on the cliff, but they would not have thought that between these palms, Li Su had passed the news that the Demon Emperor was under siege。 And on the boat of the envoy of the king of Han, a little maid leaning against the window saw the flickering light, and a look flashed in her eyes, turned around and walked to the table, picked up the birdcage covered with black cloth on the table, opened the cage door, took out two sturdy carrier pigeons with gray feathers and golden eyes, and went to the porthole on the other side and released them. Two homing pigeons, no more than the size of a palm, flapped their wings and flew as fast as arrows, but they were no longer to be seen for a moment.
The little maid released the carrier pigeon, and couldn't help but smile slightly, but after a moment, her expression became solemn, touched the dagger on her waist, she took a deep breath, turned her head to look at the soft couch in the corner of the house, and coincidentally bumped into Li Qianqian's angry apricot eyes, she couldn't help but shudder, the shore, got into the shore mouth and walked in front of Li Qianqian, pulled out the dagger and said softly: "Little county lord." Please forgive the servant for the crime of disrespect, this is Steward Li's order, and the servant does not dare to disobey. As she spoke, she waved her dagger and slashed at Li Qianqian's throat, although her tone was humble, but the smooth dagger body reflected her slightly smug face, but it looked extremely hideous.
Although facing the disaster of killing, Li Qianqian's expression was awe-inspiring, and she did not have the slightest fear. The little maid somehow felt a chill in her heart, no matter what, she was going to kill the little girl of the Han King, how could she not hesitate in her heart. Seeing Li Qianqian's calm expression, she couldn't help but slow down, Rao is she retracted quickly, and the sharp dagger had already cut through the skin on Li Qianqian's neck. Time seemed to stand still for a moment, and then a wisp of bright red blood slid down Li Qianqian's white jade-like neck. The little maid's heart was shocked, and that little hesitation had already flown outside the Nine Heavens Cloud, and the matter had come to this. Even if you stop now, you will also commit rebellion, and you will not be forgiven. Come to mind. Don't hesitate any longer. Swipe your wrist across the wrist, as if flowing water. If this trick is successful, it will definitely be able to cut Li Qianqian's throat, but it will not splash too much blood, just right, the autopsy will definitely think that Li Qianqian was killed by a top master, and the poison that made Li Qianqian subject will not leave any traces at all, so that Li Qianqian was killed by the Demon Emperor will make the illusion of being killed by the Demon Emperor.
The little maid thought very well, but it backfired, almost at the same time as she waved the dagger, Li Qianqian suddenly opened a cherry lips, and a bright red blood arrow blurted out, like the last ray of afterglow in the sunset, and it was dazzling, but the little maid didn't appreciate Yaxing at all, just because the blood arrow full of true qi hit her face impartially, and beat her originally delicate and beautiful appearance into a sieve, which is not counting, as soon as the blood arrow came out, Li Qianqian had already flown up a kick, and was carrying it on the little maid's lower abdomen dantian, Li Qianqian's feet were wearing deerskin boots, and the tips of the boots were wrapped in stainless steel, The little maid's eyes have been blinded by blood arrows, her face is in great pain, her dantian has been attacked again, her true qi can no longer be gathered, she is about to scream when she looks up, Li Qianqian's last blow also came at the right time, and a hosta penetrated deep into the throat of the little maid, blocking her last struggle warning.
It wasn't until she saw the little maid's hands and feet spasmodically falling in the corner of the cabin that Li Qianqian's cold sweat slipped down on her head, and she struggled to stand up, she was the first time to kill with her own hands, as soon as she saw the blood all over the ground, she couldn't help it anymore, "wow" and vomited, until the yellow-green bitter bile water was vomited out, she felt a lot better, but she felt dizzy, so she had to fall on the couch and gasp for a while, and then she felt that her physical strength had recovered a lot. Fortunately, the little maid sent away all the guards outside the cabin for the sake of convenience, and she didn't find out what happened here, otherwise she would have been arrested, although everyone on the ship may not know the inside story, but as long as one or two people are my sister's henchmen, she will really die.
Thinking that she could survive, until this moment, Li Qianqian still felt a little hard to believe, although she was reckless and arrogant on weekdays, but after all, she was the daughter of the King of Han, coupled with the identity of the concubine, her temperament was born with a little caution, as early as when she was under house arrest by Li Huanyu, she was numerous
What will my sister do with herself, although I don't believe that my sister will really kill people, but I dare not guard against it. As early as when she left Chengdu, she once took several antidote pills for self-defense in the pharmacy of the palace, mainly some ordinary antidotes and incense antidotes, but there was a bottle of poison drop, because the bottle of the charge was exquisite and cute, Li Qianqian couldn't put it down, so she brought it with her. Hundred poison is a kind of poison to fight poison detoxification, is made of yin to cold medicine, although precious, but not too useful, just because it is a drink to quench thirst of the drug, if you take poison after the poison, you can suppress the toxicity, but it will also damage the body, after detoxification must be long-term recuperation and conditioning, otherwise even if the life can be saved, it will be a lifelong lingering bed, although so, the poison has another benefit, no matter what kind of poison, as long as a breath remains, you can temporarily save your life, and you can prolong your breath. Although Li Qianqian's poison is not highly toxic, but it is a very toxic intensity, but it is helpless, other ordinary antidotes are useless, in order to save her life, she had to take Bai Poison Reduction, because the antidote is not the right symptom, coupled with the weakness of Hundred Poison Reduction itself, almost took half of Li Qianqian's life. Despite this, Li Qianqian was still very happy, fortunately Li Huanyu didn't take her to heart, or because she didn't want to startle the snake, she didn't search her body, and although she made her limbs weak and her true qi was weak, she didn't let her pass out, so she could take out the hundred poisons and surrender when the little maid was not paying attention. Li Qianqian naturally didn't know that the reason why Li Huanyu chose this was because she didn't want to leave traces of drugs on her body, which gave her a glimmer of life.
After resting for a while, Li Qianqian got up again, the cabin was in a mess, blood and filth were everywhere, she glanced at it with disgust, walked to the porthole and looked out, only to see the sword qi and sword light shining above the new pavilion, the river wind was blowing, and the sound of the blade collision could be faintly heard, Li Qianqian's heart was gloomy, she knew that the brother Zijing in her mind was sacrificing his life to fight on it, but she couldn't do anything.
After a thousand turns in her heart, Li Qianqian suddenly knelt on the ground, and prayed silently in her heart: "Brother Zijing, I'm sorry, I can't tell you that Sister Qingping was robbed by my sister, if this matter spreads, my father is afraid that he will die of anger, and now they must have left Jinling, I just told you, you can't catch up with them." But I'm going to find someone who can restrain my sister now, and I will definitely be able to rescue Sister Qingping when the time comes, Brother Zijing is so powerful, these people will definitely not be able to stop you, and when you know the truth in the future, whether you want to kill or chop, Qianqian is willing. ”
After making up her mind, Li Qianqian picked up the dagger dropped by the little maid, but she didn't dare to find the scabbard on her, she just tore a shirt and wrapped the dagger, and then grabbed a few gold and jade ornaments from the jewelry box, stopped and quietly escaped out of the cabin, and when she arrived at the stern, she saw everyone watching the fight on the new pavilion in front, so she got off the boat and landed on the shore, got into the withered yellow reeds on the shore, and disappeared in an instant.
The two carrier pigeons that were released were very vigorous, flying along the mountains on the riverbank, but in a moment, they had already flown out more than ten miles away, but in the place where the vision was difficult, there was a person chasing the carrier pigeon on the riverbank, if someone looked at it from a distance, they would almost suspect that the little white shadow was the trace left by the meteor after passing through the sky. From the new pavilion to the northeast, the left is the river sandbank, the right is Jinling Chengguan, this area is called the calf rock, across the river is the white heron island, the figure is getting faster and faster, can catch up with the time, just arrived at the riverside, the two pigeons spread their wings, towards the white heron continent, the white shadow did not hesitate at all, but also chased it, Ling Bo crossed the void, such as walking on the ground, two pigeons and one person to the heart of the river, a silver mang has been rolled up from the hands of the man in white, the fireworks-like gorgeous sword qi flashed away, two carrier pigeons at the same time a wail, one fell into the sky, fell to the heart of the river, but has not yet fallen to the water, but has been caught by a jade hand that bullies the frost and snow。
After catching the carrier pigeon, the man in white did not stop, and his figure continued to gallop to the northeast, but his vision was blocked by the grass and trees on the continent, so he couldn't help but slow down a little.
This person is wearing a coarse cloth white robe, with a light blue belt around his waist, the strong river wind blows his robe so that he can't see his posture and posture clearly, he wears a Xinyang hat on his head, and the black light yarn hangs down to his waist, fluttering in the wind, covering his appearance, and he can't tell whether it is a man or a woman at all, the only feeling is that this person is shrouded in a cold sword aura around his body, which is difficult to see.
