the first lady

Chapter 123

When the last person fell to the ground, she let out a sigh of relief.

Come to think of it, this was the first time she had slashed someone like this with a real knife.She has always been just a thief. She is responsible for stealing things, not killing people. Although these people should be killed, it is not easy for her to do it.

"Bang—" "Shake" twice, making Qiao Ling'er turn around immediately.

I saw Zong Zhengyi dressed in white, holding a wooden stick in his hand, showing a posture of having been beaten. As for the ground, there is now a person lying sideways. The knife was snatched by Qiao Linger and he could only use a stick as a weapon. The assassin is gone.

"Yi, are you alright?" Qiao Ling'er walked over the unconscious assassin's body to Zongzheng Yi and asked worriedly.

Zongzheng Yi smiled slightly, "I should be asking you this sentence, are you okay?" Then he checked all parts of her body.

"I'm fine, they can't hurt me yet!" Qiao Ling'er was still somewhat satisfied with her skill, and she had risen a lot from before she made a move.

"Go—" the three wounded assassins on the ground said in a deep voice, and when Qiao Linger and the others turned around, two black objects appeared in the hands of the middle one.

However, those two objects were not thrown out, the bloody sword had wiped their necks at that moment, and in just a moment, the three living people had turned into three dead bodies.

"Qiao Ling'er, smiling tiger, how are you doing?" Zhui Ming asked nervously, and after chasing him for a short distance, he found that the figure was gone, and then he realized that he had fallen into a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Qiao Linger looked at the corpses on the ground and frowned, "We're fine, and...why did you kill them?"

Zhui Ming looked coldly at the corpses on the ground, "Don't underestimate them, they are dead soldiers, if they go back, you will be the ones who die."

Chasing life is not bad, but Qiao Ling'er still feels a little uncomfortable when she looks at the person who was killed in front of her.Glancing at the person knocked unconscious by Zongzheng Yi again, he pointed at him and said, "He's not dead yet."

As soon as these words came out, Zhui Ming's eyes immediately shifted to the man on the ground, and the blood sword in his hand was already placed around his neck.

"Wait, can we find any clues from them?" Qiao Ling'er stopped Zhui Ming.

"Ling'er, there will be no clues on them." Zong Zhengyi shook her hand, "Early when they became dead soldiers, their lives have been handed over to the heavens."

Qiao Ling'er looked at Zong Zhengyi, and suddenly felt a throbbing in her heart.It's not because he doesn't object to chasing and killing this person, but because he reveals a little sadness, very shallow, but she can feel it clearly.

"You've just come here, think about who else will attack you besides the person you want to investigate?" Zhui Ming said coldly, but he didn't point out Qiao Linger's "compassionate heart".

Zong Zhengyi looked at Qiao Linger, and pulled her over, "Linger, go back first, they have already made a move, and something will definitely happen next."

"En!" Qiao Ling'er nodded, and walked with Zong Zhengyi.

Chasing his life to stay to "clean up the aftermath", it seems that this place is really a place full of dangers.

Also, he couldn't be so careless anymore, and fell into the enemy's trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, that's unforgivable!

Qiao Linger and the others were attacked, and Lanfeng Qingye and the other three in Yizhuang were also attacked by people in red. The kung fu of this group of dead men is not high, but their kung fu is very weird.

It will take some time for Lan Feng and the others to solve it, but it seems easy for Qiao Linger, all because her kung fu is always adaptable and doesn't pay attention to moves.In addition, what she has learned is physical flexibility, and she has been fighting Zong Zhengyan for a long time, so her confrontation ability is even stronger.

It was no coincidence that he was attacked just after arriving in Licheng. Naturally, there was the first time, and there will definitely be a second time.

"My lord, it's not a plague, it's a poison. Like the plague, it has a similar contagious nature." In the post station, Lan Feng reported the results of the inspection to Zong Zhengyi.

"Is it related to Yun Zhongyue?" Qiao Ling'er looked at Lan Feng's hesitant expression and asked.

Lan Feng was slightly stunned, then nodded stiffly.Indeed, it was created by Yun Zhongyue. Because he is an evil doctor in the eyes of the world, his behavior is even more puzzling, and he can produce poisons that ordinary people can't imagine.

The room fell into silence, and finally Zhui Ming leaned on the door frame with his sword in his arms and said coldly: "Although I have no contact with the evil doctor, but according to his personality, he would not do such a boring thing."

Evil doctor, evil doctor, evil spirit, what he did should be beyond everyone's expectations, but he is also a high-profile person, if he wants to kill someone, he will not hide himself.In other words, the person who is manipulating behind this scene is definitely someone who doesn't want to expose himself, and his personality is very different from Yun Zhongyue's.

The words of chasing life once again made the people in the room fall into silence. After a long time, Zong Zhengyi raised his head and asked Lan Feng, "Lan Feng, what do you think?"

Lan Feng, who was asked, was a little puzzled, but still answered truthfully: "Master, I also don't think it's an evil doctor."

Zong Zhengyi didn't ask the reason, just nodded, and said: "It's getting late today, you all go back to your room to rest!"

"But son..." Yueying became worried.

"Don't worry, we will call you if something happens." Zong Zhengyi knew what Yue Ying meant, and such an assassination incident would naturally make them worry.

"My lord, madam, we are next door, you must call us if you need anything." Qing Ye also said solemnly.

Zong Zhengyi nodded. Originally, Qingye and Yueying had separate rooms, but once this happened today, the danger would inevitably reappear, so they decided to sleep in the same room, so that they could rush over quickly for any move.

After the three of Lan Feng left, Zhui Ming hadn't left yet.

"Zuiming, what's the matter?" Qiao Linger's eyes fell on Zhuiming's body, and she was not used to seeing him frowning.

Zhui Ming frowned, his face no longer looked like an idiot, but was extraordinarily serious.

After watching Qiao Linger and Zongzhengyi half a stick of incense, Qiao Linger and Zongzhengyi were also confused. They looked at each other and saw puzzlement in each other's eyes.

After a while, Zhui Ming stepped forward and placed the sword on the table in front of them, which made them even more puzzled.

"It was my carelessness that gave them a chance today, sorry." Zhui Ming said seriously, although his tone was cold, but he could hear the apology in it.

Such an apology made Qiao Linger's whole mind go blank. She thought that the most arrogant person in the world was chasing his life. arrive.

Seeing Qiao Linger's frightened appearance, Zhui Ming's frown deepened.

"Qiao Ling'er, I'm apologizing to you. What's that expression on your face?" Zhui Ming was very upset, very upset, he apologized sincerely, but he really saw such a puzzled expression, could it be that he is such a bad person ?
"No, no, chasing my life, I don't have any other intentions." Qiao Ling'er quickly collected her attention, a bright smile curled up at the corner of her mouth.

"Then what do you mean?" Zhuiming looked at the person standing in front of him, [-]% puzzled.

"Zhouming, Ling'er didn't mean to blame you, so don't blame yourself." Zong Zhengyi stood up with a smile, and said what Qiao Linger wanted to express.

"..."

"Okay, Zhui Ming, today's situation is not what you expected, and anyone would chase it out," Qiao Ling'er picked up the blood sword on the table with a chuckle and handed it over, and said again : "Besides, you came back in time, and Yi and I were not injured, so it's none of your business. Take it!"

Zhuiming looked at the sword handed in front of him, for some reason, he felt a little strange in his heart, but he couldn't tell what was going on!

"Zhouming, it's getting late, let's go to bed early!" Zong Zhengyi urged with a light smile.

He took the blood sword stiffly, looked at the two people with almost identical smiles, and finally said in a deep voice: "I will never let this kind of thing happen again." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left coolly.

Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Linger looked at each other, and then Zong Zhengyi followed Zhui Ming and closed the door.

The smile on Qiao Ling'er's face faded slightly, but it was the most sincere smile, and said: "It seems that what happened today makes Zhui Ming very worried."

"He is a straightforward person, he will say anything." Zong Zhengyi said with a smile, maybe today is another new understanding of Zhui Ming.

"It's just... For Zhui Ming, I want to know more about who was the one who made him sign the contract of sale in the martial arts competition with him." Qiao Linger frowned as she spoke. As for the person behind Zhui Ming, who was she? Completely ignorant.

Zongzheng Yi gently embraced her, and said gently: "What is certain now is that that person will not hurt you, otherwise, how could Zhui Ming protect you?"

"But, I don't know many people, is it necessary?" Qiao Ling'er seemed to be talking to herself.She didn't live much time in this world, and she came into contact with very few people. Suddenly, someone paid attention to her like this. What kind of mind is it?

Looking at Qiao Ling'er's worried face, Zong Zhengyi sighed, "It's a blessing or a curse, and you can't avoid it. Don't worry, I will be by your side."

Turning her head to look at Zong Zhengyi, Qiao Linger's heart knot suddenly seemed to be completely opened, and she felt a little relieved.

"Speaking of which, Yi, you saved me today." Qiao Ling'er suddenly smiled.

Hearing this, Zongzhengyi was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "You are protecting me today, and you have ruined my face as a man." He did not forget that he was standing behind her at that time, being protected by her of.
