Chapter 149 Eagle Strike
When Xiao Yanzhi stepped into the city gate with a group of dead men on horseback, he heard a loud cry of an eagle, and the sky stopped the clouds.

A close dead man looked through the binoculars for a while, but when he saw the black shadow hovering in the night sky ahead, his tone suddenly became serious:
"My lord, it's a few eagles flying towards the west of the city. I don't know exactly what happened..."

Halfway through the conversation, he heard the horse hooves and neighing.A crossbow arrow the size of chopsticks was attacking Xiao Yanzhi from the dark place beside the road with a cold glow.He suddenly raised his hand to hold it, twirled his fingers and threw the crossbow arrow back to where he heard a sudden sound from the roof of the tiles, followed by a few pieces of broken tiles rolling to the ground.

This crossbow arrow Xiao Yanzhi is very familiar with, it is the hidden weapon used by King Yu's wolf cub to assassinate Lu Wanlan, but this time it is not an ice arrow, but a fine steel blade.

Obviously, they came here to take his life, and they didn't even bother to cover it up.

"Protect the king!"

Seeing this, the dead soldiers around him immediately rode forward and surrounded Xiao Yanzhi in the center.

It was too late and then it was too fast, I saw more than a dozen black shadows suddenly leaping over the courtyard walls on both sides, surrounding them with lightning speed.

These people are as light as swallows, and there is almost no sound of stepping on tiles when they move, but the rubbing sound of the sharp knives coming out of their sheaths is very clear under the quiet night. curtain.

The weapons held by these assassins are the same as those held by those people just now.

It seems that today's assassination in the suburbs of Beijing was just a test of the water, and the real ambush was actually here.

The wind from Xiao Yan's palm sent several streaks of silver light flying, but the horse's hoof did not stop at all.The cyan cloak fluttered in the dark night, leaving the snow blade far behind.

He originally thought that the reason why Xie Huaijin would assassinate him with great fanfare was because the young son was not smart enough, and he would act recklessly if he jumped the wall in a hurry.

But now, he suddenly had a different opinion.

The people behind this scene are determined to take his life tonight.

Not only did they know his whereabouts like the back of their hands, but they also found out his injuries after he quelled the rebellion against King Jin.

It's just that Xie Huaijin believed the man's instigation, and underestimated the enemy too much.

But even though there were constant crises around him, Xiao Yanzhi was still distraught, and the area between his brows had already wrinkled into a deep furrow because he was worried about the villain in the mansion.

What kind of forces did this woman offend, so that the person who killed her, even the Whistle Eagle Army that had disappeared for many years, was dispatched.

At this time, he regretted a little, regretted that he had been negligent for a while, thinking that he could lure the person who was waiting for the opportunity to move elsewhere, but he didn't expect that he was the one who was transferred away from the mountain.

You have to wait for the king to come back.

At this moment, Lu Wanlan was sweating glisteningly on his forehead, deaf to the sound of weapons clashing in front of and behind the house, and was tossing and turning on the soft bed clutching his stomach.

The painful voice of humming and chirping kept escaping from the gap between her teeth: "Oh~ I'm hurting to death~"

Xiaoxi held a bowl of red dates and ginger tea, and begged anxiously: "Girl, take a sip first, it won't hurt after drinking this ginger tea."

"Hmm~"

With great difficulty, he stood up and sat up, drinking a spoonful of ginger tea that Xiaoxi scooped out with trembling lips.

But as soon as he took a sip, before he tasted anything, he saw a sharp arrow piercing the air from outside the window, smashing the glazed window into cobwebs with a sharp sound like a gust of wind.

Xiaoxi panicked, shook her hand and smashed the bowl to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a tsunami-like sound of flapping wings came from above the palace, accompanied by a whistle that sounded like a reminder, completely drowning out the original icy sound of sharp blades.

"Girl, there seem to be some big birds outside!"

Xiaoxi poked her head and looked out through the glass window full of cracks. Under the shadow of the flickering lights, the Lu family's shadow guards and the dead soldiers of the palace outside seemed to be clamped tightly by a few sharp claws.

After a loud bang, a hole was pecked out from the top of the shadow guard's head, and he fell to the ground covered in blood.Big blood spattered in front of her, luckily the glazed window was not broken, otherwise it would have splashed all over her face.

"what……"

Seeing this, Xiaoxi quickly covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound. Although her hands and feet were trembling with fright, she still firmly stood in front of Lu Wanlan:
"Girl, don't be afraid, Chi Zheng is outside, she will definitely protect us!"

Lu Wanlan quietly observed the situation outside.

Just now that Earth Bone Theory·Hai Ling suddenly attacked, Chi Zheng fought with her for a long time regardless of the outcome. Although the assassin who came with him was strong and strong, he was not an opponent of the shadow guards and dead men in the yard after all. Seeing that he was about to fall into downwind.

But at this time, several raptors flew intermittently outside the house. Judging from the noise outside, it seemed to be large birds like eagles.

Although they don't have weapons and don't understand tactics, they are manipulated by the whistle, and they can attack our troops like a needle in the cracks, making those assassins even more powerful.

If this continues, the situation may become difficult to control.

I don't know if it was because of that sip of ginger tea, but Lu Wanlan felt that the pain in her lower abdomen did not feel so bad. Instead, there seemed to be a strong warm current slowly gushing out from the dantian, gradually spreading to the meridians all over her body.

This feeling is quite similar to the feeling she felt when she swallowed a whole bottle of Lu Yungui's palace secret medicine.

"Xiaoxi, get my bow."

"Girl?" Xiaoxi stretched her arms in front of her, and turned her head with a double-snail bun, a little hesitant, "Girl, what are you going to do?"

Although she was puzzled by her girl bending her bow and shooting arrows regardless of the occasion, seeing Lu Wanlan's calm expression, she still nodded her head in a panic.

Fortunately, two days ago, Lu Wanlan said that she missed the winter hunting every year, and could have a good time with the masters of the Lu family, so Xiaoxi took her bow out of the armory early and wiped it again. Hanging on the outside wall.

"Girl, here it is."

Lu Wanlan took the bow, and let Xiaoxi put a brocade cloak on her.

Lianbu lifted slightly and came to the door of the bedroom, but just as she was about to open the door, she remembered something again, so she stretched her hand to the side: "Xiaoxi, bring the arrow."

"Arrows?" Xiaoxi suddenly remembered at this moment, she thought that the winter hunting was still early, and she was busy cleaning her bow, but never thought of bringing feather arrows along with her.

"The servant didn't take it~" After finishing speaking, he lowered his head remorsefully, "What should I do, girl."

Lu Wanlan raised her eyebrows, without a word of blame: "Then you can search in this room, if there is something that is about the same length as this arrow."

"Okay! I'll go right away!" After hearing this, Xiao Xi began to rummage through the boxes.

Taking advantage of this gap, Lu Wanlan raised his bow and jumped up to the beam of the house. He uncovered two green tiles and poked out one eye to follow the whistle.

I saw under the moonlight, a girl in a red horse skirt, with her back to herself, on the ridge not far away.

Just as she was about to continue to look over, she saw the girl suddenly turn around, Lu Wanlan hastily looked away, turned over and got off the beam.

Hai Dongqing, who was standing on the girl's shoulder, seemed to smell something delicious, and suddenly became energetic.

His eyes shone brightly alertly, and while looking around, the feathers of his wings also fluffed up, and his whole body began to struggle.

Seeing this, the girl in red patted its head lightly: "What's the hurry, it's time for you to make a move."
