Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 57 Life and Death
Fortunately, I have been to the Duke’s Mansion during the day, and I have carefully noted down the terrain. Jiang Wu already has the outline of the Duke’s Mansion in her mind. somewhere in.

General Qiu took the opportunity to ask for help tonight, which shows the urgency of the situation. The British public is the one with a guilty conscience, so they will definitely rush to make arrangements.

Jiang Wu was sure that as long as she found the British public to inquire for a while, she would definitely get useful news.So calm down and carefully observe how the guards change shifts and move their positions.

She found that there were more guards in the Duke's Mansion than in the Huo Mansion, which showed that the British Duke also knew that he had made too many enemies, so he was very cautious.

Not long after, Jiang Wu came to the Tianxiang Pavilion next to Fuqu Garden.

The lights here are bright and the defenses are the most dense.

Jiang Wu slid sideways into the Moon Gate, skillfully avoided the eyes and ears of several guards, and stuck the rockery on her back. When the two groups of guards passed by, she caught the gap and rolled sideways to the corridor. , waist and eyes hard, already lightly climbed up to the roof.

Jiang Wu didn't dare to make too many moves, because the previous fight with Cao Yu had given her a sense of her own skills, so she would not be arrogant enough to feel that it was difficult to meet an opponent, so she was very careful, held her breath and focused on her ears On the tiles, but heard a familiar voice from inside.

"...You mean, the emperor means to go to court in the future? It's all right, how could the emperor think of going to court?" It was Huo Shijiu's deep and gentle voice.

Then there was an angry voice from the British public: "You are with the emperor all day long, I didn't ask you, but you asked me instead?"

The voice was a little slow, and he said: "It's not that it is not good for the emperor to go to court. The emperor is in charge of the government. As a courtier, how can you not be happy? It's just that there are some people in the court who only want to seek their own fame and fortune, and they are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. , specifically to stir up some nonsense. There are still people who want to fight against Jinzhou to recover the lost ground."

"I've heard that too." Huo Shijiu said with a smile in his voice, "I understand the meaning of the Duke of the State. Such a person who will bring disaster to the country and the people will never be allowed to stay."

Hearing that Huo Jiujiu answered so neatly, Jiang Wu frowned.

The British Duke chuckled, "Thanks to having you here, I also have a right-hand man. I didn't intend to complain just now, but just thinking of those sour and self-righteous thoughts gave me a headache, and I wish I could kill them sooner."

Huo Shijiu said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely not let such a person who does not think about the court but only for his own self-interest. I will never let this kind of person say anything wrong to the emperor during the court meeting." the words said."

The British Duke laughed heartily and said heartily, "Very well, you are a sensible person."

Jiang Wu listened to [-]% of the conversation between Ying Yinggong and Huo Shijiu, and her heart was a little chilly.These two people are all talking about serving the country wholeheartedly, but in essence they don't do anything that is beneficial to the country. For the selfishness of the British public, the loyal generals like General Qiu have become the people they say are only for their own fame and fortune. .

It seems that Jin Yiwei is going to attack General Qiu.

Even if Ying Yinggong and Huo Shijiu didn't reveal the details, Jiang Wu could guess Jin Yiwei's method.

There is no benefit in staying longer.Jiang Wu turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, she was just about to slip down the roof, but she heard the sound of breaking through the air behind her.

With a heartbeat, Jiang Wu rolled sideways and jumped off the roof.

With two beeps, two sleeve arrows have been nailed to the position where she was lying down just now!

At the same time, the courtyard was full of people, the lights suddenly brightened, and someone shouted: "There are assassins!"

There are many British public guards, many of whom are masters, Jiang Wu was finally discovered!
When he heard the sound of sleeve arrows on the roof, Cao Yu was already guarding Huo Jiujiu's side.The British Duke is also protected by guards at the front and back.Hearing the commotion in the courtyard, the group hurriedly went outside.

Pushing away the grid fan, I saw guards holding torches surrounding the exit of Tianxiang Pavilion, and four men holding shining sabers, besieging a short man in black.

When Cao Yu saw the man in black, he frowned—his body was light and flexible, and he couldn't see the number of kung fu, but he could vaguely see that it was a very practical close combat technique.Seeing him bending back, his long hair drawing a beautiful black waterfall under the light of the moonlight and lights, a certain figure that had annoyed him so much rushed towards his eyes.

It's that handsome boy!

As Fang thought so, the young man's right hand had reached the side of his leg, a cold light flashed, and a silver light swung away from the two steel knives that had been cut at the same time at an inconceivable angle. Then there were two muffled grunts.

Two blood arrows gushed out, and the two men leaned back, clutching their necks in disbelief, twitching and losing strength.

What a quick knife!
It actually took the lives of two people in an instant!

Cao Yu guarded Huo Jiujiu by his side, with a solemn expression on his face.

This boy may not be the same person as the last time I saw him.Because at this moment, he has a murderous aura, but last time that person did not have such aura.

This kind of chilling bloodthirsty evil spirit would never have been cultivated if it hadn't been fed with slaughtered blood!Cao Yu was also self-confident as a master, but at this moment, the thin and ghostly figure of the young man forced his back into cold sweat, and the hairs on his scalp stood on end.

Another guard surrounded him and surrounded the thin figure.Before the British Duke could rejoice, two more people fell to the ground, the dagger slid across their necks, and blood gushed out.

The smell of blood filled his nostrils, and the British male's legs trembled, showing timidity.It was hard for him to imagine the feeling of the icy dagger slashing across his neck with lightning speed.

A gust of wind blew, and the clouds that covered the moonlight were blown away, and the bright moonlight shone down, and together with the lights, it sprinkled in the open space of Tianxiang Pavilion. The assassin turned over to avoid the steel knife, and the dagger pierced the heart of a guard again. It was the heart. parts.

Just as he pulled out the dagger, he seemed to feel the eyes of Duke Ying, Huo Shijiu and Cao Yu, and turned around awe-inspiringly.

Under the night light, his long hair is flying, his sword eyebrows are flying, his eyes are icy cold, his face scarf and black clothes cover him in the night, he is more like a born cruel elf, although he is vicious and bloodthirsty, he harvests a few lives in an instant, but he has infinite beauty.

The knife was drawn, blood spurted out, and the big man fell to the ground.The assassin didn't even look at it.

The moonlight, the fresh blood, the flying long hair of the masked boy and the crimson silver light of the blood-stained dagger became a painting, engraved in the hearts of everyone present.

With the rise of Jiang Wusha, it is no longer clear whether this place is the past life or the present life.The blood on her hands had been uncleaned in her previous life.

Just as she blocked an attack with the scabbard in her left hand, she suddenly heard a loud roar: "Back!"

At the same time, all the besiegers retreated, and the archers who didn't know when they came had poured into the courtyard, and more than fifty arrows were pointing directly at her.

All the flowing killings came to an abrupt end like broken strings.

Jiang Wu held the dagger backwards, blood slid down the tip of the knife and dripped to the ground.It seems that people can hear a "tick".

"put!"

As soon as the roar fell, all the guards had already bent their bows and set up arrows.

Cao Yu's heart tightened inexplicably.In such a situation, isn't it impossible to escape?
But who would have expected that young man to rush towards them suddenly, with the dagger out of his hand, only pointing at the British Duke.

The archers were chasing people and shooting arrows. Seeing the assassins running towards the Duke, how dare they shoot?There are only sporadic two or three who have not counted in their hands, and they have already given up.

The three souls and seven souls who had been frightened by the guards around the British Duke all ascended to the sky, and finally caught the oncoming dagger in a hurry, but the British Duke was safe.

Looking at the courtyard again, is there any trace of the assassin?
"My lord, the assassin has escaped!"

The British Duke was furious, "Fart! Just now the man was right in front of him, how could he escape! Search for me! I don't believe he has the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground!"

The guard at the side said again timidly: "My lord, three arrows were shot just now, but the humble officer only found two arrows, and there was some blood on the ground."

The Duke of England was shocked, as if the assassin who slaughtered like a demon just now would bleed and be injured, which was a great relief.

"The assassin has been injured, he can't run far, search for me! If you live, you want to see people, if you die, you want to see corpses!"

"Yes!"

The guards withdrew.

The British Duke turned his head and frowned and said to Huo Shijiu: "The assassin has not been caught yet, and the road is not safe. Don't go back, just stay here."

Huo Jiujiu raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement without confrontation.

The British prince looked at the six corpses being carried out in the courtyard again, the hairs on his back stood up again, and he left quickly as if avoiding the plague.

After a while, only Cao Yu was left beside Huo Shijiu.

Huo Shijiu said: "Let's go, sit for a while before leaving."

"Yes." Cao Yu respectfully pushed back the lattice fan for Huo Shijiu.

Unexpectedly, just as Huo Shijiu entered the door, his left arm was cut back behind him for a moment. He was so painful that he couldn't straighten up, and a cold blood-stained object was already pressed against his neck.

The person behind exuded a faint scent of sandalwood mixed with blood, and his voice was low and hoarse, "Don't move."
