People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 378 A dangerous assassination, a long wait

Under the bright moon, in the dense forest, a fast-moving figure suddenly stopped at the edge of the dense forest.

Wearing a blue robe and holding a crane's head and a long staff, He Lao appeared under the moonlight with a stern look all over his body.

Looking at the pitch-black Sangu Villa in the distance, He Lao's face darkened slightly.

The interior of the villa seemed extremely deserted from a distance, but in He Lao's eyes, there were sharp swords and guns, full of murderous aura, as if waiting for something.

Could it be that tonight, the attack they instigated Qian Zhuo to plan was really in the calculations of King Nanchang?

He Lao hesitated for a moment, what should she do if there is really a trap there?
Thoughts slightly fixed, a thought flashed in He Lao's mind, so what if it's a real trap.

For many years, she has not broken through any trap.

And even if the trap in front of him was set up, it was set up for Qian Zhuo and those people. They never expected that a master like himself would come to attack him.

Right now, Sigu Villa seems to be extremely well-defended, but He Lao knows better that this tense nerve cannot last for too long.

Looking up at the dark sky, it is already the sixth quarter of Yin time, and in half an hour, the sky will turn pale.

At the beginning of Maoshi, when the sky is about to be bright, people's hearts are also sleepy.

Hold on!

He Lao leaned against the back of the big tree, relaxed his body, adjusted his breathing, and at the same time, he was also thinking hard about the possible arrangement inside.

Qianniuwei.

It's not that He Lao has never dealt with Qianniuwei in his life, and he knows some of their methods quite well.

……

Time passed bit by bit, and suddenly, the whole world fell into a strange and inexplicable silence.

True silence.

At this moment, in the middle of the dense forest, He Lao directly stood up.

The footsteps were light on the top of the dense forest, and the next moment, her whole body was already in midair like a night owl.

Leaping up tens of meters, He Lao's figure was like a real big bird, flying high in the sky.

With a light slap of both arms, in an instant, He Lao was already gliding rapidly towards the direction of Sangu Villa.

Looking down from a high altitude, one can clearly see that there is a famous Qianniuwei standing behind the walls of various courtyards.

These Qianniuwei are holding long knives and strong bows tightly in their hands, and there are a handful of crossbows at their feet, but the arrow boxes are not installed on the crossbows, so there is no need to worry about shooting by mistake.

So they really thought someone would come tonight.

So is all this a trap laid out by the King of Nanchang in advance, or is it that after the King of Nanchang realized that he was poisoned, he guessed that someone would come to make up the knife at night, so he made preparations in advance?

He Lao's figure was completely merged into the darkness. At this moment, all the stars in the sky and the earth disappeared in an instant.

No one noticed the slightest trace of He Lao, she had already jumped over the wall and flew towards the deepest part of the villa.

He Lao's breathing is extremely dense, although her current movement is extremely shocking, but the consumption of such movements is also extremely huge.

The Yuan Qi in her body was only enough for her to enter the villa, but not enough for her to fly out directly.

His eyes fell on the top of the pavilion in the backyard.

With a slight shake of his arms, the next moment, He Lao fell silently towards the pavilion.

The moment He Lao was about to settle down, an extremely cold long spear stabbed up from under the pavilion without making a sound.

A lance, extremely sharp, pierced straight to the center of Helao's chest.

Helao's eyes widened immediately, and when she turned around, one of her hands had already slapped the long lance fiercely.

With a "bang", a figure was quickly photographed, and then slammed into the rockery in the back garden.

There was a huge bang.

The sudden attack caused He Lao to pause involuntarily, and the aura in his body was slightly confused.

Elder He took a deep breath, with her strength, as long as she took this breath, she would be able to recover immediately.

But at the moment when she breathed into her stomach, the cold long knife turned into a bit of chilling, and hit her heart directly.

With a sound of "ding", the long knife had pierced straight into He Lao's skin, and a drop of blood had dripped out.

However, the two fingers were firmly caught between the long knife, and then the two fingers turned up violently, and the long knife was thrown out violently.

The figure holding the long knife was also lifted up at the same time.

It hit hard on the pebble path in the backyard, and a mouthful of blood spurted out uncontrollably.

"Qianniuwei." Elder He's eyes turned cold in an instant.

The person who almost stabbed her heart with a knife was none other than Zuo Qianniuwei Qianniu Beishen Qiu Zhenmu.

The moment Qiu Zhenmu fell to the ground, she immediately stood up.

Li Zhu on the other side also stood up instantly.

Behind them, countless voices sounded in the compound at the same time: "There are assassins, there are assassins..."

The Qianniu knife in Qiu Zhenmu's hand lay across his chest, and he took a step forward. The cold blade in his hand had come directly in front of He Lao's eyes, and at the same time, Li Zhu on the other side, the long lance in his hand The same long thorn came, and in the blink of an eye, it had already pierced He Lao's throat.

All of a sudden, Elder He seemed to be in a daze, abruptly motionless.

Qiu Zhenmu and Li Zhu didn't even have time to think about it, the weapon in their hands had pierced He Lao's body in an instant.

It was extremely easy to stab in, but in an instant, the two of them felt something was wrong.

Because when the weapons in their hands pierced He Lao's body, it was like complete air, and there was no feeling of piercing into the flesh at all.

With a sound of "ding", the sharp blades collided, and the powerful force made Qiu Zhenmu and Li Zhu's bodies stop at the same time.

The weapons in the hands of the two collided fiercely, and under the powerful force of the impact, He Lao who had been pierced through his body dissipated in an instant.

"Witchcraft!" Qiu Zhenmu shouted coldly, then raised her head suddenly, looking in the direction of the bedroom in front of her.

He Lao who was wearing a black robe suddenly appeared at this time, just in front of the door of Li Xuan's room, without even looking back, she had already broken into the room in one step.

Li Zhu subconsciously wanted to rush over, but at this moment, Qiu Zhenmu grabbed her and shouted in a low voice: "You don't want to die!"

Li Zhu paused for a moment, as if thinking of something, his face couldn't help but change.

At the same time, more Qianniuwei had rushed in.

……

"Huh?" As soon as He Lao broke into the room, he immediately felt a strange smell, and immediately, her whole body stopped.

Because at this moment, in front of her eyes, although she could faintly see the existence of some tables, chairs and benches, the white mist in the darkness was also clear.

It turns out that the King of Nanchang has such an ability.

He Lao suddenly understood.

As the apprentice of Medicine King Wei Xuanzang, how could Li Xuan not have any special means.

However, this kind of fog can play a little role in such a narrow space at most. If you really dare to use it in the open wilderness, you probably won't know how you will die.

However, this kind of mist is not completely useless, in addition to covering the line of sight, it is also very convenient to penetrate some toxins in it.

He Lao held his breath tightly from the first moment he entered the room.

At the same time, the Yuan Qi in the body runs rapidly, clearing all abnormalities in the body.

Even though she was a step slower and inhaled a bit of poison, her domineering cultivation at the Mystic Embryo Realm showed a formidable power in an instant.

A black breath was sprayed out by her in an instant.

As soon as the black air spewed out, He Lao had already smashed through the black air, and rushed towards the bed fiercely.

The crutch in his hand slammed fiercely at the figure lying on the bed.

Although the line of sight was completely blocked, He Lao's incomparably clear spiritual sense pointed directly at the position of Li Xuan on the bed.

"Crash crash!"

Three crossbow arrows suddenly shot out from under the figure on the bed, and nailed fiercely at the center of He Lao's chest.

Close at hand, the crane staff in He Lao's hand slammed in a circle, and the three crossbow arrows were shot down in a blink of an eye.

At this moment, the extremely sharp blade suddenly passed over the crane stick, and directly stabbed towards He Lao's throat.

With a sound of "ding", the crane stick directly hit the long sword, but in an instant, the long sword softened.

This turned out to be a soft sword.

In an instant, the person holding the sword lost all his strength.

The soft sword was directly deflected by He Lao's stick, and turned to one side, but in an instant, like a strange poisonous snake jumping up, the sharp blade spit out directly bit He Lao's throat from the side.

He Lao's crane stick flicked slightly to the left, and the path of the soft sword was directly blocked.

In an instant, the soft sword retreated violently, but in an instant, it rushed forward again.

In an instant, the soft sword turned into countless sharp rains of swords, covering He Lao directly...

"Ding", with a sound, countless sword shadows suddenly dispersed, and an extremely sharp soft sword collapsed to the ground as if its spine had been broken by someone.

The crane stick didn't stop at all, and directly slammed forward fiercely.

With a "bang", the hard bed was smashed into pieces in an instant.

Amidst the sputtering of the wood chips, a figure flew up, and in a blink of an eye it had already landed on the beam of the house.

He Lao was taken aback for a moment, and then, her eyes caught a flash of light.

"Thousands of silk!"

There was a sneer at the corner of He Lao's mouth, and the next moment, she jumped up abruptly and rushed directly towards the figure on the beam.

The sharp point of the crane stick pointed directly at the throat of the figure.

Faster than lightning.

At this moment, the figure on the beam also turned over at the same time.

The sharp long lance suddenly appeared, and then ruthlessly stabbed straight at He Lao.

The staff was short and the lance was long, but at this moment, Elder He didn't flinch in the slightest, and rushed directly towards the lance blade.

However, at the moment when the rods were about to collide, the sharp long lance slammed to the left, piercing into the nothingness on the left like lightning.

The blood suddenly exploded.
