supreme heaven
Chapter 8: The Faceless Man
() It has been a week since Dayunjing came out, and everyone's interest is not high. The only one who still maintains a leisurely demeanor is that young master Qin Guyue.
For Qin Guyue, he spent most of his time in the Hou's mansion in the study, even if no one taught him martial arts, as a young master, no one would stop him from reading the books in the Hou's mansion Yes, it is precisely for this reason that now that he is exiled, it is only as if he brought a bunch of books and read them in another place.
Soon, the convoy came to a village not far away. Liu Wangcai chose the best inn and settled everyone down.
Although this is just a small town adjacent to the official road, it is very lively and the food is relatively rich, not as rough as ordinary wild restaurants.During the meal, Liu Wangcai explained to Qin Guyue, "Master, this place is close to Tongzhou. It is a big city. This small town is also the only way for merchants from the north to go to the southeast, so the economy is very prosperous."
Qin Guyue nodded and said: "We're here to buy some dry food and supplies, and we'll try to rest as little as possible in the future and arrive at Yunshui Villa earlier." After finishing speaking, he fiddled with the rest of the food in the bowl and stood up Picking up the handkerchief and wiping his mouth, this is a habit he has developed in the Hou Mansion for a long time. Qin Zhantian said more than once that only the humble untouchables will leave oil stains on their faces after eating to show that they have eaten well today. how nice.
Thinking of this, Qin Guyue couldn't help clutching the handkerchief again, but sighed in her heart, since she won't have so many rules when she arrives at Yunshui Villa, why would she still carry this handkerchief?Suddenly, he felt someone around him watching him.It stands to reason that only a person whose perception has reached the level of a physiognomy or who has reached the level of a sharp fighter in martial arts can feel the eyes of the surroundings looking at him, and thus predict danger, but Qin Guyue is neither a physiognomy master nor a sharp fighter , but people with super perceptual ability will notice it.It was a terrifying gaze, staring at him from several directions and unknown places.Qin Guyue can already feel that there are at least six such gazes, distributed in the rooms of this inn, on the floor, in the cracks, and even among the people who come to eat. Qin Guyue knows that if she treats those few Subconsciously glance at the corners of the gazes. Even if you can't find the owner of these gazes, you can still find some clues, but he is likely to encounter the opponent's sniper immediately.
The 16 years of living in the Hou's Mansion, as well as enduring humiliation, made him choose to lower his hand, pretending to pick up the handkerchief when he dropped it on the ground, and took the opportunity to glance at the person closest to him while squatting down. Sure enough, there was A beggar lying on the ground begging, his face was covered with bruises, obviously he had been beaten, and there were rotten sores, which made people sick to see, and several inn clerks didn't bother to talk to him.
Qin Guyue had seen it in "The Art of Hidden Assassination" in the study of the Qin family, the more important the assassination mission, the more he had to pretend to be humble and inconspicuous, one kind is to become the appearance of the public, so that people can't remember The other is that you are like this beggar, people can't see your true face at all, and you don't want to see his face. If you don't look at it, you won't be exposed.
He immediately picked up the handkerchief and stood up, looked at the handkerchief that fell on the ground with disgust, and threw it on the ground again, taking the opportunity to make sure again, not only six, but three more staring at him , these nine gazes gave Qin Guyue the feeling of nine sharp long swords, ready to be unsheathed at any time, according to his intuition, any one of them has at least the strength of a sharp warrior.
Not to mention Qin Guyue alone, even if the group of warrior-level family knights behind him were all on top, they could only be slaughtered. Obviously, someone wanted to take his life with absolute confidence!
Who exactly?Qin Guyue quickly flicked through all the people and forces that might have a relationship with her in her mind, and finally locked on one person very clearly: "Bo Ji"!Although Qin Zhantian may have been completely disappointed in Qin Guyue, Qin Guyue is still the eldest son in name, even if he has been exiled, it cannot completely eradicate Qin Zhantian's idea of transferring Qin Guyue back to Yunjing City in the future. It would be the best thing for the eldest son to have an accident on the way to Yunshui Villa.
He looked at the crowd, turned his eyes, and immediately realized that attacking these nine killers at this time was nothing but a meaningless sacrifice, so he pretended to yawn and said: "I'm going to rest, call me before we leave tomorrow."
Liu Wangcai who was sitting next to him responded, "Master, rest at ease. I will call you tomorrow." These days, everyone in the team knew that the young master had nightmares almost every night, so no one could disturb him except Liu Wangcai. .
Back in the room, Qin Guyue breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately frowned slightly, because he felt that as he returned to his room, those assassins seemed to have also arrived in his room, and just now Qin Guyue's behavior did not make them paralyzed, on the contrary they were more cautious than before.
They don't even make the sound of walking and moving, so these assassins have either reached the level of a soldier, or they have special training methods. After all, they approach the target silently, and the opponent doesn't even notice it. It is really the essence of assassination. marrow.
Although Qin Guyue cleverly introduced these killers into his room and saved the lives of the family knights in the hall, he was now worried about how he would escape from the tiger's mouth.
To use an inappropriate analogy, not only these killers, but even Qin Guyue herself felt like a lamb trapped in a tiger's den, unable to think of any way to escape.He took a few steps into the room, adjusted his breathing, tried not to let these killers see his flaws, and then walked towards the open window in the room, which was his only hope of escape, directly through the window Jump out and run like hell, no matter what!
However, what made Qin Guyue a little desperate was that the closer he was to the window sill, the killers followed him like a shadow, keeping him at an optimal assassination distance of about seven steps. In other words, as long as Qin Guyue moved, at least he would There are nine weapons that can directly penetrate his heart.
Just when he was five steps away from the window sill, he saw a figure suddenly rushing in from the window like a ghost. Without any explanation, he grabbed Qin Guyue's hand. The man's palm was cold, but his physical strength was amazing. Big, with a violent yank, his entire body was pulled out of the window.
"Dong dong dong..." A series of sharp sounds of swords poking against the wooden board came one after another at the moment Qin Guyue's body flew into the air, and nine black shadows were seen moving toward Qin Guyue and the white-clothed person like ghosts. People swooped on.
I saw the figure of the man in white flickering, protecting Qin Guyue behind him, a beam of silver light like a cold moon was blocking between him and the killers, this seemingly light silver light made the nine elite The killer was inexplicably afraid, and his figure flew away like a butterfly, not daring to show his sharpness.
The man in white stretched out his feet and tapped lightly on the outside of the window sill, and with a flick of his sleeves, the silver light shrank back into his hands as if with a spirit, and then the wind blew under his feet, holding Qin Guyue as if he had no weight Spinning out, it floated a hundred steps away in an instant.
"Chasing!" Seeing that Qin Guyue was rescued, the nine killers rushed out of the window without any hesitation, took out their concealed weapons and threw them at the man in white in mid-air.
"Clang clang!" The silver glow reappeared, forming a circle around the man in white, knocking down all the hidden weapons and returning them to his hands.At this time, Qin Guyue, who was held by the man in white, was already staring straight.What kind of martial art is this?So superb, or is this a kind of physiognomy?But physiognomy should only be able to manipulate one of the five phases, right?Even though Qin Guyue has read books in the study of the Hou Mansion for more than ten years, she still doesn't know anything about this skill.
After shooting down all the hidden weapons, the white-clothed man flicked slightly, and flew towards a bamboo forest not far away. The nine killers on the ground followed him like a shadow, but they lost the white-clothed man as soon as they chased into the bamboo forest. The traces of Ren and Qin Guyue.
At the moment when these black-clothed killers paused, they could only hear the soft sound of snakes swimming past from the bamboo leaves in the high places, and then it seemed that fine moonlight poured down between the bamboo leaves, filling them instantly. vision.
Then came the soundless night.
Nine assassins who were at least sharp warriors were killed by the man in white with one blow, and all of them sealed their throats with a fatal blow. These killers may have died inexplicably, but Qin Guyue was killed by the man in white. I can see clearly around me.He just landed on a tall bamboo leaf, and the silver light in his hand flew out like a snake, cutting the throats of those killers at a speed that was barely visible to the naked eye.Obviously, he was not in the bamboo forest because he was afraid of the strength of these killers. The only explanation was that when he killed people, he didn't want to be seen by others.
Thinking of this, Qin Guyue suddenly became inexplicably curious about the identity of this mysterious man in white. He turned his head suddenly, but felt his heart almost stopped beating in fright.Even the city government like him let out a "ah" in fright.
Because that man in white...he has no face!
The face of the man in white was flat and smooth, like a piece of jade, without even the most basic facial features. In addition, it was already night, and it looked like a ghost, very strange.
The man in white seemed to know that Qin Guyue had seen her face, so he let go of his hands, turned his head to look at Qin Guyue, countless white lights gushed out from his body, piercing his skin in an instant, Not only the skin, but even the clothes on his body were broken inch by inch like glass, melting in the silver light.
Then, in Qin Guyue's astonished eyes, the man in white was merged into the silver light, turning into a silver beam of light as thick as a person, which suddenly rose into the night sky with a loud roar, "Boom" There was a burst, and all the haze in the night sky for a hundred miles was dispersed.
When Qin Guyue came back to her senses, she found that the corpses of the nine killers in the bamboo forest had also disappeared, and then the family knights shouted from outside the bamboo forest: "Master, Master Guyue, where are you? "
"Master, Master, where are you?"
Qin Guyue was just about to speak, but found that her throat had lost her voice due to nervousness before, and she coughed a few times before shouting: "I'm here! I'm here..."
Liu Wangcai was the first to discover Qin Guyue, and immediately shouted: "Look, look, the young master is there!" Then the knights of the family rushed up and hugged Qin Guyue who was standing on the bamboo, Not long after, the garrison troops of Tongzhou City were also attracted by the inexplicable strong light just now, and came here.
The officer in charge, when he heard that the eldest son of the general and Bingge Hou Qin Zhantian was here and was almost assassinated, his feet softened from fright at that time, and he hurriedly took Qin Guyue and his party into the official post of Tongzhou City overnight. She personally guarded the gate for Qin Guyue, and did not breathe a sigh of relief until she led troops to escort her for three consecutive days, until she was sent out of Tongzhou.Regardless of whether he is favored or not, if something happens to the eldest son of the Qin family in Tongzhou, he must have done his best in defense of Tongzhou.
This time in Tongzhou, no matter whether Qin Guyue was lucky or lucky, she was safe and sound. Leaving Tongzhou, she was very close to Yunshui Villa.
For Qin Guyue, he spent most of his time in the Hou's mansion in the study, even if no one taught him martial arts, as a young master, no one would stop him from reading the books in the Hou's mansion Yes, it is precisely for this reason that now that he is exiled, it is only as if he brought a bunch of books and read them in another place.
