Chapter 518 It’s Over

The mastermind behind the scenes may be one person or two.

Anyway, it all fell into his hands.

There is plenty of time to review slowly.

Ning Muqing understood the situation and asked, "We've caught him, what should we do next? There are still forty or fifty enemies outside, and the two corpses at the door won't last long, and they will be exposed soon."

She and Chu Lixuan were now alone in the enemy camp, and the entire ship was full of enemies.

Once the people on the ship discover their invasion, they will attack in groups. Although she and Chu Lixuan were not afraid, it was not easy to break through the encirclement with two living prisoners.

not to mention.

With Chu Lixuan's character, he would not be satisfied just by catching the mastermind behind the scenes.

What he wants is to catch both people and stolen goods in one fell swoop!
Ning Muqing didn't know what his plan was, and she was slightly curious.

Chu Lixuan suddenly asked, "What else did you find in the mezzanine of the bookshelf?"

Ning Muqing stretched out her hand and showed him the things, "It's just two medicine bottles and a token. I don't know what it does."

"One bottle of antidote, what's the other one?" Chu Lixuan asked again.

"I haven't looked at it yet. Just wait." Ning Muqing opened the seal of the medicine bottle, went up to it and smelled it. The smell of the drug hit her face.

She wrinkled her nose, "It's a very strong medicine."

The so-called ecstasy powder is a narcotic drug in the popular sense. When burned by fire, it turns into smoke, which is colorless and odorless. The weight in this bottle is more than enough to knock down several elephants.

It was probably used for self-defense.

"In this case, why not..." Chu Lixuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he lowered his head and whispered a few words to Ning Muqing.

After hearing this, Ning Muqing raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "It's a good idea to kill without losing blood!"

Of course she had no objection. Why dirty your hands when you can solve it easily?

The two men took action immediately.

Chu Lixuan dragged the two unconscious men and threw them into the back room.

Ning Muqing rolled up the blood-stained carpet on the ground and threw it out the window. After cleaning up the traces of the attack in the house, he brought in the bodies of the two men in black at the door and threw them on the ground casually.

After doing this, she clapped her hands, walked to the brazier in the house, and looked at Chu Lixuan.

Chu Lixuan was already standing by the window, looking at her.

"Are you ready?" Ning Muqing raised her lips and said, "Finish it as soon as possible. I want to return to Beijing sooner."

Chu Lixuan quickly started to move.

……

Meanwhile, outside.

Chu Lixuan's soldiers took action to attack the men in black on the ship.

After a fierce fight between the two sides, the man in black was still in shock. He didn't know that the disaster was coming, so he thought he was lucky.

The scarred and frightened people in black still didn't know that the disaster was coming. They were still secretly rejoicing at this moment, thinking that they were lucky and finally escaped.

When they collapsed on the deck and gasped for a long time, a man in black wearing a leader's uniform looked around: "Why isn't Zhou Xi here? There are other brothers, why are there only these few left?"

The situation on the deck was tragic.

Almost all of the surviving people in black were injured, and the injuries were serious, with blood staining their clothes red.

There was no doctor on board, not even medicine.

Those who were seriously injured could only clutch their chests and struggle painfully on the deck, wailing from time to time.

Except for the ordinary sailors who did not get off the ship, only a few men in black were slightly injured and could move freely.

Hearing Bu Qingchen's question, a sailor said with a pale face: "Your Excellency went to the top room and took four or five people with him, but for some reason, he didn't come down again."

Bu Qingchen frowned: "How long have you been there?"

"Almost a quarter of an hour."

The man in black felt uneasy after thinking about it, so he called a few companions who were less injured and walked to the top floor room together.

Now the people on the ship suffered heavy casualties and the cargo was lost.

With this thought in mind, several men in black helped each other up to the top floor and saw pieces of white smoke floating in the corridor.

It became thicker than when Bu Qingchen came before.

As soon as I reached the door of the wing, I didn't have time to knock on the door.

Suddenly, the ship's hull shook violently, as if it hit something. The bow of the ship sank suddenly, and the people staggering on the deck almost floated, and then they hit the deck hard, causing them to scream in agony.

All kinds of debris on the deck were scattered everywhere, and they fell everywhere.

The big ship stopped at some point, as if being dragged by something, it was stuck in the middle of the river.

The entire hull was trembling slightly, and there was a creaking sound coming from nowhere, as if it was overwhelmed and about to fall apart at any time.

It was very quiet on the deck. The screams and wails disappeared.

Everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost, with pale faces and round eyes, looking at the river not far ahead in disbelief.

"No...it's not good..."

A horrified scream came from below the cabin. The helmsman and a dozen oarsmen rushed out in panic. Everyone was dripping wet, as if they had just jumped into the river and swam up.

The helmsman of the boat shouted with a pale face: "It's bad! The bottom of the boat hit the iron chain, and a big crack was opened. It can't be blocked! The bottom of the boat is going to leak and sink."

The words are not finished yet.

A group of people rushed onto the deck, took a clear look at the situation outside, and immediately froze on the spot.

His voice was stuck in his throat and he could no longer utter a word.

On both sides of the river.

I don't know when a large number of soldiers also appeared, and they were also guarding the archers with swords. The fire was burning brightly, and every archer drew their bowstrings to their full length. Their sharp arrows were already on the strings, reflecting a dazzling cold light.

The swords and arrows are all ready for a critical moment!
Just waiting for the command to sound, thousands of arrows will be fired, enough to turn the man in black's ship into a hedgehog!
"This is really a big scene!"

At this moment, Ning Muqing was sitting on the railing on the high observation deck of the merchant ship's mast, overlooking the entire river, taking in all the scenery.

Even she didn't expect that Chu Lixuan could make such a perfect plan!
The real big dish was actually arranged by him here!
At this time, the night is dark and the wind is high, and the fog in the mountains is hazy, which is the most suitable for concealment and ambush.

This is called timing!

All escape routes are blocked, unless someone can grow wings and go directly to the sky.

Oh, by the way, not even God.

Because thousands of archers are watching, even if each one only shoots one arrow.

With the arrows raining all over the sky, nowhere to borrow strength in mid-air, and the darkness and poor visibility, no matter how good your light skills are, you have to stay here!

It can range from being hit by an arrow and falling into the water, to being hit by an arrow and becoming a target in the air.

That way of death shouldn’t be too ugly!

"Hiss!" Ning Muqing couldn't help but gasp as she imagined it.

It was obvious that Chu Lixuan hated the people of Chen State and wanted to take them all down regardless of the consequences, so he formulated such a thorough battle plan.

There is absolutely no way for people to survive.

at the same time.

Ning Muqing also realized a depressing fact.

That is, when Chu Lixuan was hostile to her before, he was merciful to her. If he had been more ruthless and used the same method to ambush and plot her, she would have been in trouble long ago.

Ning Muqing smiled bitterly, what is this?

Deliberately releasing water?
But she didn't really realize it until now.

The fierce river wind blew towards her face, carrying the smell of raging war. The familiar smell made Ning Muqing involuntarily squint her eyes, her black hair flying in the air.

"What are you still doing standing there?"

The man's cold voice came from the roof of the wing not far away.

Ning Muqing turned around and looked over, only to see Chu Lixuan standing in the river wind. The river water and firelight in the distance reflected his cold and clear profile, but his narrow and sharp eyes were only looking at her.

The man said displeased: "Why don't you come down yet?"

Ning Muqing stared at him blankly for a while, then suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

There are not many people in this world who can make Chu Lixuan take the initiative and show mercy.

Maybe it's just her.

She should feel proud.

Ning Muqing decided not to hesitate and jumped towards the man without hesitation.

More than ten meters in the air jumped under my feet.

Chu Lixuan opened his eyes slightly and immediately took two steps forward, reaching out to catch her.

Ning Muqing threw herself into his arms, bumping her nose against his strong chest. Chu Lixuan reached out and hugged her tightly, and the two stood side by side on the smooth roof.

He said angrily: "How brave! Who told you to rush over like this? If you fall into the river..."

"Chu Lixuan!"

Ning Muqing raised her head to interrupt him, her eyes shining brightly under the firelight.

She smiled and asked, "Is it over?"

Chu Lixuan was startled, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's over."

"The love flower poison on us has been released, and I am willing to stay with you and continue to be your princess." Ning Muqing said with a smile.

Bu Qingchen was the one who cast the poison. He had died at the hands of Chu Lixuan, and Ning Muqing also decided to face her heart.
