The new era strikes

Chapter 683 I want to be strong

In the middle of the night, the lights of Wanjia were extinguished, only the sound of falling leaves and insects blew with the breeze.

boom!
A muffled sound suddenly sounded in the night sky, causing Lu Tian, ​​who was practicing, to open his eyes.

"There are assassins!"

From afar, Lu Tian heard a scolding, which made him vigilant, after all, he was not able to deal with assassins who dared to enter Liu's mansion.

Fortunately, he lived in a place where handymen lived, so it was unlikely that he would come into contact with him. After all, the assassin's target was the members of the Liu family. He was a cook, so he probably wouldn't even pay attention to him.

Soon, the Liu residence became noisy. Many people held torches and illuminated the surroundings. As long as an assassin appeared, they would immediately find out.

Some of the house slaves next to him went out, hoping to catch the assassin and make meritorious service, while others stayed in the house, not wanting to get involved.

Half an hour later, it seemed that the assassin had not been caught, and the Liu Mansion gradually became quiet, but there were still guards patrolling.

Lu Tian shook his head and wanted to turn off the lights and go to sleep. Just as he was approaching the table, a drop of liquid fell on his face.

At first I thought it was dew on the roof, but immediately found a little fishy smell, Lu Tian's expression changed slightly, and he touched it with his hand, it turned out to be blood!

He felt cold and wanted to leave here, but a gust of wind brought a cold dagger to his neck.

"Don't move, or you will die!"

At some point, there was already a person standing behind Lu Tian, ​​wearing standard night clothes, who was sticking a dagger to Lu Tian's neck.

At this moment, cold sweat ran down Lu Tian's face. He really felt that he was going to die. The murderous intent of the man behind him was like a sharp knife, making him feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.

Lu Tian tremblingly raised his hands to remind himself to calm down, but his calves were still trembling. He took a deep breath and said, "You're hurt, I won't tell you, and don't kill me, how about it?"

He could see that the assassin must be seriously injured, otherwise he would have run away long ago without hiding here.

And he didn't leave now, he was still hiding here, especially the drop of blood just now, he calmed down and saw a way out.

He believed that the assassin didn't want to die, but the other party wanted to leave, and it wasn't that simple. At the same time, the other party didn't dare to touch him easily, otherwise it would be exposed soon.

The man in black was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect a house slave to react so quickly, but it's good to understand, lest he talk too much.

"sit down!"

The man in black spoke again, and Lu Tian calmed down at this moment, only to realize that the voice seemed to be a woman?
But he didn't dare to ask more questions, and just sat on the chair honestly.

Just when Lu Tian was about to speak, there were dense footsteps outside the door, and then someone knocked on the door.

"Open the door and check to see if there are any hidden assassins." It's the guards, they have been investigating, and now it's their turn.

Fortunately, it was the one next door. Lu Tian turned his head and looked carefully at the assassin. Unfortunately, the assassin was covered in black cloth, but he was very thin, so he should indeed be a woman.

"Let's go, they came to check!" Lu Tian whispered, wishing that the assassin would leave quickly, and his life was threatened, which really made people uncomfortable.

"I will hide. If you dare to reveal my information, I will definitely kill you first before I get caught!" The assassin rushed out with a stronger murderous aura, but all of them were directed towards Lu Tian, ​​making his face turn pale.

Some of his original thoughts disappeared in an instant, and at this time there was a knock on his door.

Lu Tian looked back to see if there was any assassin, but he still felt dangerous in his heart, that person must be staring at him nearby.

Hearing that the people outside were a little impatient, Lu Tian quickly came to the door. After opening the door, several guards with torches were waiting.

"Come in, everyone!"

Lu Tian moved away, with no abnormal expression on his face, as for the previous blood, he wiped it off.

"So it's Chef Lu, excuse me!"

The guard knew Lu Tian, ​​and with a few smiles on his serious face, he brought him in, looked carefully at the room, saw nothing unusual, and left directly.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the outside became quiet. The row of houses on this side had been inspected, and they all left for the next place.

Lu Tian sat in his seat, his nerves were still tense, and he felt that there were still a pair of eyes staring at him.

"Where is she hiding, I didn't find her just now..."

Just as doubts arose in Lu Tian's heart, he saw a shadow descend, and another dagger was stuck to his neck.

"You're fine, don't be so nervous."

Lu Tian curled his lips, guessing that this person should have a clever way of disguising, if it wasn't for the blood dripping just now, he might not be aware of it until he died.

"You are very sensible!"

The assassin said something lightly, and the dagger disappeared with a splash of his hand. Then he pulled a chair and sat behind Lu Tian's chair.

"I just don't want to die. As long as you don't kill me, I can pretend I didn't see you." Lu Tian resisted not looking at her, and said in a discussing tone.

"I didn't expect him to be a house slave with two hearts." The assassin laughed with a hint of weakness in his voice.

"It's just that I'm afraid of death. Besides, I'm just selling my life, not my heart. I don't have that so-called loyalty."

Lu Tian shook his head, and said casually, feeling a little more relieved, the other party's tone was quite normal, without the killing intent just now.

"Eat this!"

The assassin was silent for a moment, and then a black pill appeared on the table.

Without saying a word, Lu Tian picked it up and threw it into his mouth. It tasted bitter and spicy.

Of course he understood what the drug was for, and he didn't need to think much to know that it was to blackmail him, so that he could move freely and control him to do some things.

Because he knew that he had no choice, he didn't have much hesitation. Only when both parties have a guarantee can he have a chance to survive.

This time, the assassin was very surprised. He didn't expect Lu Tian to be so straightforward, which saved her a lot of trouble.

"Very well, I promise, as long as I can leave, I will give you the antidote."

Lu Tian was still a little upset. This feeling of being involuntary made him bolder: "I don't believe your promise, you have to give me some benefits."

The back suddenly became cold, like a piece of ice, making Lu Tian's body stiff again.

"Are you telling me the conditions?" The assassin stared at Lu Tian's head, his eyes full of evil spirit.

"My life is in your hands. Instead of being controlled to death by you, I might as well fight for some benefits." Lu Tian is not afraid anymore. His life is in danger now, so why not fight for it.

"what do you want?"

The assassin swayed, pain appeared in his eyes, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. She was seriously injured at this time, and she didn't have much self-protection power at all. If Lu Tian revealed her, she would definitely die.

She let go and allowed Lu Tian to negotiate terms with her.

"Teach me martial arts, I want to become a strong man!" Lu Tian said firmly and seriously.

The assassin was stunned again, but she didn't expect this request, she felt Xia Lutian's breath, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
