The first-level Zhaohua Thousand-level Hall

Chapter 54

When Xu Qingjun woke up, his whole body was in pain as if he had been crushed.

He couldn't move his body because his hands and feet were bound.

Xu Qingluo moved her fingers again, very good, her fingers can still move, although the person who tied her was very wary of her, tied her hands and feet tightly to her body, and could only wriggle on the ground if she wanted to move, but At least it didn't take so much trouble to tie her fingers together. You must know that Xu Qingluo had really seen that kind of method of tying a person's whole body, including fingers and toes, in the court. Binding people to prevent people from escaping or something is a trick that those concubines and concubines came up with to deal with people.

After confirming this, he touched the gorgeous gold and silk bracelet wrapped around his wrist. Xu Qingluo heaved a sigh of relief. Only with this will he be able to escape with confidence.

Xu Qingluo had already prepared this thing. Although she was tied up here, to be honest, most of the things developed as she expected.

From the very beginning, Xu Qingluo didn't feel that he would be safe after killing those four people, and that he could safely rescue Baicao, so if he deliberately lured her, he wouldn't send only four people. .

Thinking about it, those people are really relieved of her now, when all the weapons and medicines on her body are gone, after she is completely trapped here.

Then she will feel at ease, because only when she is not taken seriously and people think that she has succeeded, can she really find a chance to rescue Baicao.

Just as Xu Qingluo figured out that it was impossible for just four people to lure her here, and she didn't believe that if she really came here and honestly caught her without a fight, those people would let Baicao go.

What those people are more likely to do is to kill Baicao directly or to use Baicao's safety to force her to submit. At that time, neither she nor Baicao will have a chance to escape.

But now, because Xu Qingluo never underestimated those people, it was her home game next.

It's just that he didn't know which bastard was the one who gave him that blow at the end, Xu Qingluo tilted his head, and his neck still hurt a lot.

There was a snoring sound in his ears, and although most of the surrounding area was shrouded in darkness, Xu Qingluo squinted his eyes through the moonlight leaking in from the top of his head, and saw a strong man on his left, holding a knife, Sitting there, resting on the handle of the knife, sleeping soundly, with his face facing her.

What made Xu Qingluo pay attention to him was the mask on his face. It was a hideous and terrifying mask. The metal luster shone coldly and sharply under the faint moonlight. If you see it, you will scream out in fear.

Xu Qingluo took a closer look at the metal mask. Its color is bright, its eyes are open, its mouth is straight, and its shape is like a tiger. This is a mask belonging to a warrior. Many ethnic groups in the Western Regions have tattoos. Painted faces, the habit of wearing masks, is just that different ethnic groups have different customs and dress up. Just like the warriors of the Nohara tribe like to dye their faces red, some warriors in the Western Regions are also accustomed to wearing masks in battle.

It is said that most of the people wearing liger masks are powerful warriors.

Simple strength is easy to deal with, Xu Qingluo turned his head gently, looked at the corner of the wall, there was also a tall and strong figure sitting there, with his back to her, Xu Qingluo couldn't see that person's face, However, the dazzling sharp point seen from the side is also wearing a mask, but I don't know what kind of mask he is wearing. He sits there with his back straight, obviously this is in charge of the night watch.

It seems that the people behind the scenes really liked her. Facing a "weak" woman who was seriously injured and all weapons and poisons were confiscated, she was not only tied up but also sent two soldiers to guard her. It can really be said that the lion fights the rabbit, and it also uses all its strength.

Xu Qingluo kept his breathing steady and unchanged, and slightly closed half of his eyes to cover up the murderous intent in his eyes. Some fighters with rich combat experience can feel their sight. Langsheng can do this. Xu Qingluo It can also be done, the former is because of rich combat experience, and the latter is because of the sensitivity of every step after rebirth.

Xu Qingluo didn't want to gamble on whether the two warriors who were not good at first glance could feel his gaze.

Her hands and feet were tightly bound, her feet were curled up and tied together with her calves, and her hands were firmly tied behind her shoulders and her arms, and her tightly bound wrists shook slightly, It can only shake slightly, but it cannot be untied from the tight rope, but Xu Qingluo never expected to use such a forceful method to get out, she is not that stupid.

Because of the slight shaking of the wrists, the hands that were tied together with their backs behind their backs finally became facing each other instead of facing each other when the wrists were all red from abrasion.

Xu Qingluo rubbed the magnolia bracelet on her left wrist with her middle two fingers. She groped for it. There were many patterns wrapped around the golden silk bracelet. The weaving was very beautiful. It was worn on Xu Qingluo's moon-like wrist. Not only is it not tacky, but it reflects her slender wrists and tightness.

What Xu Qingluo wanted was never the beauty and ugliness of the jewelry. Her fingertips kept moving, and then there was an inaudible click that was concealed in the wind. Xu Qingluo stopped all her movements, and her ears trembled slightly. Listen to the sounds around you.

Neither of the two people looking at her paid attention.

The next moment, the girl's fingertips had already caught three silver needles, three silver needles with a slightly different color on them.

The three silver needles on Xu Qingluo's fingertips stabbed fiercely on one wrist. At that moment, the pain of contusion and skin peeling was nothing more than the same. Beads of sweat dripped from her forehead, and her lips were tightly pressed together. She was bitten, and even swallowed blood by herself.

This kind of pain didn't end immediately, but spread slowly. Xu Qingluo gritted her teeth and pierced the three silver needles further into her wrist, and finally touched the meridian. Then her hand softened little by little and fell down.

And then, under the faint moonlight, Xu Qingluo's left hand withered and withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just now the hand was beautiful and plump like jade, but it took only a short while to become such a terrifying and weird appearance.

There was more sweat on Xu Qingluo's forehead, and some sweat even slid down her forehead directly to her skirt, sweating profusely as if she had just taken a shower. No one could imagine the pain she endured in such a short period of time. .

Xu Qingluo insisted on exhaling slowly and regularly, and at this time, he had to be more cautious, not to cause any trouble.

Xu Qingluo's shrunken left hand slowly slipped out of the hemp rope. The hemp rope was tightly bound, but it was only about the size of her original wrist, and now it was only half the size of her hand. But it came out easily.

It's just that the left hand came out, but it was already in extreme pain. The left hand was still shrinking, and it even started to move towards the top of the wrist. When he arrived at the pendant around his neck, it was a jade pendant. Xu Qingluo's deformed and painful left hand pressed hard on the middle of the jade pendant for the last time, and a small pill appeared in the palm of his hand. The pill was swallowed into the mouth.

Xu Qingluo panted silently, her entire left hand and wrist were trembling, trembling as if suffering from some kind of epilepsy, it was pain passing from the blood vessels to the bones inch by inch, clamoring to make her want to simply take this Hand cut off.

After a long while, Xu Qingluo clenched his fist fiercely, and the trembling rapid hand finally slowed down slowly.

The clasp is very strong and complicated. It is the kind of clasp that will get tighter and tighter if it is wrong. opened.

Xu Qingluo's left hand was so painful that he was almost unconscious. He turned his body carefully, and his right hand reached his calf.

One foot, the second foot, seeing Xu Qingluo was able to untie both feet.

With a "bang", the cold wind blew through the haystack fiercely, and the fork on it fell to the ground. The sound was not loud, but it was definitely shocking. The big man who was watching the night in the corner turned around almost instantly.

He immediately looked towards Xu Qingluo, and what he saw was a petite woman lying curled up in the darkness. The blood on her shoulder had already solidified, and everything seemed to be fine.

The big man who was on guard at night slowly turned his gaze to the direction of the transmission, and saw the fork forking grass on the ground.

Xu Qingluo's palm was sweaty, but he was tightly holding the silver needle in his hand.

The sound of boots squeaking on the sparse grass, getting closer, closer.

The big man on night watch leaned over to check the ropes on Xu Qingluo's hands and feet. His eyes widened, and when he found the untied ropes, he subconsciously pulled out the knife at his waist.

But one was caught off guard, and the other was ready to go. There was no longer any delay. The moment the big man put his hands on his waist and shouted to call his companions, Xu Qingluo was already half-kneeling and grabbing the big man's arm with one hand. , half of her body used this force to rush towards the big man, and the silver needle in her other hand pointed at the big man's throat, shining brightly under the moonlight, and inserted it fiercely.

The voice of calling for his companions stopped abruptly, but it was enough to wake up the big man who was sleeping next to him.

As soon as the sleeping man opened his eyes, he saw his companion's fallen body. The metal mask fell to one side, revealing a bluish-white face as stiff as a zombie.

He roared subconsciously, and rushed towards Xu Qingluo with his bare hands.

Xu Qingluo had a rope tied to one foot, and it was tied to her calf. She couldn't stand up and run away at all, and she didn't plan to run. She rolled and fell beside the dead man, listening to the roar behind her, She pulled out the long knife from the dead big man's waist, rolled over again, knelt down on one knee, and slashed at the bare-handed big man with the knife in both hands.

One half-kneeling, the other pounced forward like a tiger, with an astonishing momentum, but the knife in Xu Qingluo's hand did not hesitate to move forward.

Xu Qingluo's determination was not bad at all. The big man obviously didn't expect that Xu Qingluo would dare to slash him with a knife, and it was too late to dodge completely, so he punched Xu Qingluo's wrist fiercely.

Xu Qingluo heard the sound of bones cracking, and the one that was injured was her shrunken and deformed left hand, which was barely able to hold the knife, but now her left hand was completely weak, and she slashed fiercely from the big man without hesitation. The center of the belly is shifted to the waist.

The blood burst, the big man screamed in pain, and held Xu Qingluo's right hand with one hand. The big man's big hand was like iron pincers tightly clamping Xu Qingluo's wrist, and the bones in his hand seemed to be broken.

With a jingle, the five fingers of his right hand uncontrollably released, and the long knife fell to the ground.

In the shadows, the big man didn't notice that the rope on Xu Qingluo's other foot, which was almost untied, was slashed by the falling knife, and even slashed the position of Xu Qingluo's calf. long wound.

"Bitch!"

The big man cursed at Xu Qingluo viciously in blunt Central Plains dialect, and that face wearing a metal mask became even more terrifying because of the hatred in his eyes.

He stared at Xu Qingluo with murderous eyes, and both of them heard the cracking sound of bones: "How dare you kill Fujiyuan——"

"Bitch!"

He dragged Xu Qingluo to the place where he fell asleep just now, not knowing what to do.

But looking at that murderous look, one could tell that he was completely mad with anger.

Xu Qingluo seemed to be completely unable to resist. He lowered his head and remained silent, as if it was really impossible. The big man walked forward cursing. of light.

Just about to bend down to pick up the knife on the ground.

The next moment, being dragged by her, Xu Qingluo, whose whole body seemed to be limp, stood up straight, and the other big man's foot, which he thought was tied up with a rope, swept fiercely on the ground. A foot swept into the hand, and then Xu Qingluo held it with one hand, but instead of attacking the big man, he threw it on the pillar in front with all his strength.

"what are you doing!"

The big man flashed past him very quickly, holding Xu Qingluo's right hand with one hand, but he didn't expect Xu Qingluo to throw the knife past him.

The big man turned his back to Xu Qingluo, and did not see that the knife was thrown onto the pillar by Xu Qingluo. The cold light of the blade went straight into the pillar for three points, it was a good knife.

"You can't kill me, I can kill you without a knife."

The big man muttered proudly, because of Xu Qingluo's seemingly useless attack, the vigilance he raised just now was suppressed, women are useless, he thought, then he raised his fist to Xu Qingluo's head He hit it hard, because he felt that a woman is a woman, who can use some poison but can't use a knife. He almost opened the door.

But Xu Qingluo smiled coldly at the big man. Under the stunned expression of the big man, his feet slammed on the ground. Not only did he not try to get his right hand out of the big man's hand, he didn't dodge it, he even took the initiative to meet him. , This is more useful than any dodge at once, because the big man didn't expect it.

He rushed out with his old fist, and Xu Qingluo's petite body completely plunged into the big man's chest.

The big man's eyes covered by the mask were wide open, filled with bloodshot horror and the despair of death.

The big man stepped back step by step, staggering, and Xu Qingluo was also led back by him.

One step, two steps.

The big man fell on his back, at the position of his heart, the two remaining silver needles in Xu Qingluo's left hand were completely submerged in it, only a little bit of the tail was trembling slightly.

Xu Qingluo slowly got up from the opponent's body, her right hand was still being held tightly by the big man, even if she died, she did not intend to let go.

She broke it twice, but couldn't break it at all.

Time cannot be lost.

Xu Qingluo took two steps forward, dragged the big man, walked to the pillar, and pulled out the knife on it.

Xu Qingluo narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the big hand that was pulling him, his eyes were fierce and decisive, his trembling left hand raised the shiny long knife, and dropped it hard.

It was cut in two, blood splashed everywhere, the hand holding Xu Qingluo was cut off by her own hands, and there was blood in front of her eyes.

Xu Qingluo held the blood-stained long knife and walked out step by step while supporting the pain all over her body. Her body and face were either grass or muddy water, or blood-stained dust. Her face was all stained, and the only thing that was bright were those eyes.

Those eyes were fierce, decisive, and unyielding. Her back straightened step by step, and drops of blood dripped on the road she walked. Another person's blood.

This is not a 13-year-old girl, but a steadfast fighter. No matter who it is, seeing Xu Qingluo at this moment, there will only be such a sigh.

"Clap clap."

"Clap clap clap."

A sound of applause came from the door, and at some point the closed wooden door was pushed open, a tall and tall man with a handsome pale face clapped his hands and walked in against the moonlight step by step.

Even if his back was facing the moonlight, even if his face was mostly covered in shadows, the admiration in those eyes could not be concealed.

Xu Qingluo didn't know the man applauding, but she knew someone else.

The applauding man was followed by another man, a man who looked extraordinarily arrogant.

That was the third prince, the third prince that Xu Qingluo and Lang Sheng had analyzed were related to the plague and colluded with the Western Regions to persecute him.

The three princes have to take a step back, and the person who has to follow, who is his identity!

Xu Qingluo paused, the blood-dripping long knife in her left hand lay across her chest, her heart turned, she looked straight at the pale and handsome man, wondering whether the man was the leader of the people from the Western Regions, she didn't feel that at this moment The person who would make the Third Prince regress like this would be someone else, but apart from his figure, this man is different from ordinary men from the Western Regions.

She didn't say any harsh words, her petite figure won't make people think that she is very threatening, but after watching Xu Qingluo, even if she is seriously injured, she can kill two people in a row. After the heat, the third prince looked at her like this, and felt chills in his heart. He couldn't help but paused, not daring to follow the sect master any further.

"Miss Xu, you are fine."

The handsome and pale man put down his hands, but carried his back behind him. He stopped in front of Xu Qingluo, and did not take a step forward, but the distance of three steps gave Xu Qingluo an extremely dangerous feeling, a forceful force The force rushed to the face.

Her feet stepped heavily on the grass on the ground, and she didn't want to take a step back.

"I know whether I am good or not, and I don't need your judgment."

Xu Qingluo said in a calm voice, these words sounded like nothing, but after careful reading, they seemed to be blocking the other party.

"Hehe, Miss Xu doesn't want to hear why I think you are very nice?"

The door master smiled, and that handsome face was tainted with a trace of charm. If it wasn't for the place where they met in such a dark and murderous place, Xu Qingluo would have met such a man in other places. He would think that the other party is just a noble son, and the other party's temperament is more like a noble son than Yang Yunping, and he is more imposing than the third prince who is the grandson of the prince and grandson behind him.

"Miss Xu is lucky enough to be ruthless, even I admire her ruthlessness."

"If it's just killing a few people, it's ruthless, but it's good. Thinking about it, your Excellency is really ignorant. Just pick out any one of these people under your command, and I think it will be stained with more blood than me. The person behind your Excellency is not something I can compare to."

While talking to the other party, Xu Qingluo's right fingertips were trembling imperceptibly.

"Dead people are worthless waste."

The handsome man said this in a gentle tone: "What's more, what I like about Miss Xu is not that you are cruel to others, but that you are cruel to yourself. In order for the girl to get away, or that the girl has already I have made up my mind to sacrifice my left hand and give myself bone shrinking poison, not to mention women, even men, I have never met a few, why do you think I don't admire you and like you?"

There was some lingering in his eyes, and his words were frivolous, as if he was just an ordinary man who saw a beautiful woman or a woman he liked.

The third prince's eyes fell on Xu Qingluo's left hand, that horribly deformed hand. Thinking that Xu Qingluo made it like this by himself, the look in Xu Qingluo's eyes became even more terrified for a while, not only did he not dare to touch it. forward, and even a step back.

He felt that both Xu Qingluo and the sect master frightened him.

It's just that neither the sect master nor Xu Qingluo cares about any of the third prince's current actions. A timid coward, no matter how noble he is, is nothing more than that, not to mention that the third prince has already lost his noble status. .

Xu Qingluo looked at this unknown man coldly: "Since you know that I am cruel enough to myself, and dare to use poison on myself in order to get rid of bone shrinkage, why do you dare to block my way? I want to remind Your Excellency, I still have a lot of things that can kill people that have not been searched away!"

Now that Xu Qingluo has killed six people with his own hands, and more than half of them died from poisonous powder or needles, no one can take her words as a joke even if Xu Qingluo looks weak and weak.

The third prince's body froze, and he almost wanted to escape this space immediately. He had seen Xu Qingluo directly poisoned three people with a pile of poisonous powder, and also seen her kill two people in the straw shed with three poisonous needles. He didn't want to bury his life on the body of a crazy woman at all: "Master——"

He wanted to persuade the sect master to leave with himself, and let the sect master's subordinates deal with Xu Qingluo.

The man known as the head of the sect gave the third prince a faint look, and swallowed the remaining words in the other's mouth.

"Miss Xu, I don't have any malicious intentions. As I said, I admire you very much. In order to let Miss Xu understand my sincerity, I can give you the real antidote to bone shrinking poison. After all——"

"Miss Xu just took the elixir that can temporarily suppress the bone shrinkage poison. I don't want to see the tight girl I like turn into a mess that can't be seen clearly."

The white jade fan in the door master's hand unfolded, and on it was a milky white pill, exuding a faint fragrance.

"The door master can't."

The third prince saw that the pill didn't look like a common product, and couldn't help but stop it for a while: "Master, a woman like her is best to get rid of it as soon as possible, if—"

"Do you think I am so weak that I dare not even tolerate a woman?"

The color in the sect master's eyes was extremely frightening, and the third prince who rushed over impulsively regretted not falling: "I dare not, sect master Shenwei, I have little knowledge."

Xu Qingluo watched the two people sing together, looked at the so-called antidote that was still on the white jade fan, and didn't pick it up.

"It's the antidote to bone shrinking poison."
