Chapter 320: Fire Gu, Sinking Water
"Wow, you're going to assassinate the emperor, it's amazing!"
Ying Ning grabbed Wu Ming's shoulder, and her eyebrows danced, revealing the fox demon's nature of watching lively.
Wu Ming stretched out his hand and patted Ying Ning, and then looked at Nie Yinniang: "Why did you assassinate the emperor?
Nie Yinniang nodded: "Yes, the soldiers of Jiangdu City escorted me to Gyeonggi before, and after I entered the prison of the Criminal Department, I took the opportunity to make a fuss and released all the felons inside." Taking advantage of the confusion to check the files of that year, I already learned that it was the current emperor who ordered the execution of the Nie family, which was executed by the national teacher. ”
Wu Ming frowned when she heard this, Nie Yinniang could even make a fuss in the underworld at the beginning, and a prison of the Criminal Department naturally couldn't trap her, and it seemed that she had a premeditated plan to enter Gyeonggi this time.
It's a pity that the soldiers of Jiangdu City who sent her must be miserable, and they will inevitably be jointly and severally responsible, these soldiers used to fight side by side with Wu Ming, and Wu Ming still has a lot of affection for them.
Nie Yinniang saw Wu Ming's thoughts, and said: "More than thirty soldiers in Jiangdu City are currently being detained in the Criminal Department because they have lost their key criminals, but there should be no danger, that Yan Chixia is also with them, he could have left, but he must stay with those soldiers." ”
"Brother Yan is such a character. Wu Ming frowned slightly, it seemed that there was one more thing, he had to go to Gyeonggi to rescue Brother Yan and those soldiers.
Ying Ning interjected on the side: "Then since you found out that the emperor did it, why didn't you do it in Gyeonggi, but waited until now?"
Nie Yinniang looked at a tall tent brightly lit in the distance, where the emperor rested.
"I've been lurking in Gyeonggi for a long time, but the palace is heavily guarded, and there are many formations, so it's always been difficult for me to sneak in, and that empty space has been making trouble for me, so I haven't been able to find a suitable next opportunity. ”
Wu Ming sighed: "There are still formations in the palace?"
Nie Yinniang nodded: "That's right, the national teacher beside the emperor is also a monk, proficient in various formations, and the entire palace is set up by him." ”
"Since ancient times, it seems that those who have been national teachers have not been good people. ”
Wu Ming stretched out his hand and touched his chin: "Have you inquired about the details of this national teacher, does he have any other powerful magical powers?"
"I don't know. ”
Nie Yinniang shook her head: "The national teacher usually follows the emperor and never shows his face in front of people, even those ministers in Gyeonggi don't know his appearance, I have spent a lot of effort to investigate him, but I have gained little." ”
"National Teacher, Formation ......"
Wu Ming's brows gradually furrowed, even Nie Yinniang couldn't find out the details of this national teacher, I'm afraid he is really not a simple person, this national teacher has always been by the emperor's side, in case he was delayed by the assassination, thousands of soldiers in the camp besieged him, even if he could escape, the purpose of the assassination would inevitably not be achieved.
Wu Ming looked at Nie Yinniang: "You are going to assassinate the emperor tonight?"
Nie Yinniang's face showed a look of determination: "I followed the emperor from Gyeonggi all the way to the foot of Dongyue Mountain, and now this night is the best time to make a move, I won't miss it." ”
"Then let's go with you, and we can take care of it. ”
Wu Ming actually likes to watch the lively character, especially the assassination of the emperor, how can he miss it.
Nie Yinniang hesitated, she was used to being alone, and she didn't want to take anyone else with her for this kind of assassination mission.
However, out of trust in Wu Ming, Nie Yinniang finally nodded: "You can come with me, but everything must be under my command." ”
"No problem~" Ying Ning replied in the back.
Wu Ming remembered one thing: "Is there also a formation protection around the emperor's tent?"
Nie Yinniang nodded: "The national teacher has arranged a three-element array around the emperor's camp, this formation is driven by the three-element fire Gu, and I specially took the South China Sea submersion, which can break the fire Gu." ”
Wu Ming nodded: "Let's go, you will lead the way." ”
Nie Yinniang sighed, turned around and sneaked towards the bright tent, Wu Ming and Ying Ning followed behind.
Nie Yinniang is indeed the number one stealth master in the world, her whole person turned into a black shadow, shuttling between the tents, even if she doesn't use the stealth technique, she will not attract the attention of the patrolling soldiers around her.
Wu Ming and Ying Ning had to work harder, but fortunately, with the help of Ying Ning's illusion, they turned into soldiers, and the patrols around them didn't pay much attention to the two stragglers.
After a few moments, several people finally came to the rear of the emperor's tent.
From a close distance, this big tent is majestic and unusual, covering an area of 100 meters in circumference and seven or eight meters high.
Wu Ming smacked his lips: "It's unimaginable that soldiers can set up such a grand tent overnight." ”
"This super tent is also part of the formation, with the blessing of the national teacher's spell, otherwise ordinary soldiers would not have been able to build it so quickly anyway. ”
Nie Yinniang solved Wu Ming's doubts, and then led the two of them to a corner behind the giant tent, took out a jade bottle from her arms, opened the cap, and slowly poured the water in the bottle on the ground in front of her feet.
A slight sizzling sound sounded, and the clear water seeped into the soil, like pouring into an oil pot, and a burst of white smoke came up, and then a large red insect rolled out of the soil, enough to be the thickness of a wrist, raising the empty head high, looking at the jade bottle in Nie Yinniang's hand twisting and wriggling, which made people extremely disgusting to watch.
"This is the Fire Gu, I'll hack it to death!"
Ying Ning was about to make a move, but was stopped by Nie Yinniang: "You can't kill it, otherwise the national teacher will immediately know that there is a problem with the formation, let me come." ”
Nie Yinniang turned the jade bottle upside down, and the person inside fell down in one go, and a big mouth suddenly appeared on the empty head of the fire Gu, swallowing all the South China Sea submergence.
The liquid entered the body of the Fire Gu, making a slight Sisi sound, the Fire Gu twitched for a while, and let out a few low hisses, and then his body stiffened, and he lay straight on the ground and did not move.
Nie Yinniang put away the jade bottle: "The Gu worm has drunk the sinking water, and it is already drunk, we can go in." ”
Wu Ming sighed, he originally wanted to deal with the fire Gu like this, but he remembered one more thing: "Sanyuan is away from the fire array, should there be three Gu worms?"
Nie Yinniang nodded: "That's right, but we only need to open a passage to enter the center of the formation, and it is enough to get drunk with this Fire Gu." ”
"It's getting late, follow me. ”
Nie Yinniang spoke, then leaned over and quietly walked to the front of the giant tent, reached out and pulled out the hairpin on her head and gently stroked it, breaking a crack more than a foot long on the outer wall of the big tent.
Then Nie Yinniang's figure moved, like a swimming fish, burrowed into this breach and disappeared.
