Fortunate Young Gentleman

Li Tianlan looked ahead with a suspicious look on his face, obviously not finding anything.

Tang Ning knew that someone was hiding there. It wasn't that he was more powerful than Li Tianlan and his senses were sharper. It was because from a moment ago, the epilepsy Gu in his sleeve began to become restless, and the Ice Silkworm Gu also began to move frequently.

The identity of the person hiding in the dark who can cause the Gu insects to behave like this is already very clear.

There was no movement from that direction. Tangning looked over and asked, "The second prince is dead, what else do you want to do?"

After he finished speaking for a long time, a man walked out from behind a tree more than ten feet away.

It was a figure wearing a bamboo hat. Judging from the figure, he should be a woman. The man took off the bamboo hat, looked at Tang Ning, and asked, "How did you find me, and how did you know it was me?"

Under the cloak was a face that Tang Ning was not familiar with. The middle-aged woman's complexion was sallow, even a little dark, and something seemed to be smeared on her face. Although it was not the face of the middle-aged woman next to the second prince, she had indirectly touched her face just now. He admitted his identity. It seemed like he had gone through some disguise.

As the only one among the Second Prince and others who had slipped through the net, her arrest warrants were all over the city. It would not be easy to escape from the city without changing her appearance.

Tangning did not answer her question, but took two steps forward and said, "The second prince has been burned to ashes, why don't you give up?"

The middle-aged woman said calmly: "I'm just a loser. If you die, you will die."

This was not the first time that Tang Ning experienced the viciousness of this woman. Her apprentice left her behind as soon as he was told, and the master who followed him died. In the blink of an eye, she turned against her and became merciless. This woman was more poisonous than the poison she raised.

Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "You are also a Han, why do you do things for them?"

"You are too lenient."

The middle-aged woman said coldly, walked slowly towards this side, looked at Li Tianlan, and said calmly: "Unexpectedly, the majestic princess of the Chu Kingdom would actually lower herself to fall in love with a humble official in the Chen Kingdom..."

Love has no distinction between status. Princes will fall in love with Cinderella. Why can't princesses like poor boys?

What's more, he is not poor either. How can a middle-aged and elderly woman with such a vicious heart and no experience of feelings understand the feeling of liking someone?

Seeing her getting closer, Tang Ning crossed her arms, looked at her and asked, "Do you want to wait until you get closer so you can release the poison?"

The middle-aged woman paused, looked at him, and said in a cold voice: "It's really you. You were the one who cured their poison?"

Tang Ning was noncommittal, and the middle-aged woman asked again: "The art of poison was lost more than ten years ago, and it is even less likely to appear in Chen country. Who taught you the art of poison?"

Tangning glanced at her and asked, "Are you one hundred thousand whys?"

"If you don't say it now, you will say it later." The middle-aged woman said coldly, flicked her sleeves, and several black lights shot out from her sleeves, heading straight for Tang Ning and Li Tianlan.

brush!

A silver bolt passed in front of Tang Ning's eyes. Li Tianlan stood with a sword in his hand. Several Gu worms released by the middle-aged woman were cut into several pieces by him and kept twisting on the ground.

The middle-aged woman's expression remained unchanged and she said calmly: "Do you think this is the end?"

Tangning looked at her and asked, "Are you trying to say that even if the Silver Thread Snake Gu is cut off, it can still survive and parasitize in the host's body?"

The middle-aged woman's complexion changed for the first time, which was a characteristic of the silver-threaded snake voodoo. Since he knew this, why did he still stand there and not hide away?

As if she thought of something, she immediately looked to the ground.

She saw that the Gu worms that had been cut off just now did not get into the bodies of the two people as she expected, but were constantly squirming under their feet. If you observe more carefully, you can see that they are not Not squirming, but trembling, or surrendering.

Having practiced voodoo for many years, she certainly knew why this happened.

"You have ice silkworm Gu on your body!" The middle-aged woman's face changed drastically and she asked sternly: "She taught you the voodoo technique. What is your relationship with her? Bai even gave you the ice silkworm Gu! "

"Who's surnamed Bai..." Tang Ning glanced at her. Most of his Gu skills came from Su Mei. She also lent him the Ice Silkworm Gu and told him to keep it safe. Could it be that this woman and Su Mei What does it matter? Who is the surname Bai?

The middle-aged woman suddenly became excited. She drew her sword and pointed it at Tang Ning, loudly saying, "Tell me, who taught you your voodoo skills?"

Clang!

After the sound of gold and iron clashing, Li Tianlan was already standing in front of Tang Ning.

The two swords collided, and the middle-aged woman took a few steps back, snorted coldly, and stepped forward again.

Tang Ning was originally a little worried about Li Tianlan, but when she saw that she and this middle-aged woman were fighting together and not losing at all, she felt relieved.

With him by his side, this middle-aged woman's Gu art will not have much effect. People who are proficient in Gu art are generally not very good at martial arts. Although this middle-aged woman is considered a master, after more than ten moves, she has already He was completely suppressed by Li Tianlan.

At this time, there was movement outside the forest.

A group of people rushed into the forest from the official road. The middle-aged woman threw away Li Tianlan and came straight towards Tang Ning. She grabbed his shoulder. Tang Ning raised her hand and grabbed her wrist and turned it around. The middle-aged woman's attack missed. .

Li Tianlan had already walked over quickly. The middle-aged woman glanced at Tang Ning with an unwilling expression and flew deeper into the forest. However, as soon as she flew a few feet away, her body trembled and she fell to the ground.

Xu Ling walked over quickly and asked, "Princess, are you okay?"

Li Tianlan shook his head and said, "It's okay."

Tangning walked up to the middle-aged woman and asked, "How are you doing? Doesn't it feel like being poisoned?"

The middle-aged woman behaved mischievously just because she knew how to use poison and voodoo. Tang Ning was just treating the other person the same way.

This trip to Chu State was an arduous task and full of dangers. The things he used to pack the bottom of the box were not just one or two. The old beggar's poison technique and Su Mei's Gu technique were not inherited from the same lineage. Sometimes, poison The technique is much easier to use than the voodoo technique.

Tangning stood up, looked at Li Tianlan, and said, "Leave this person to me."

This middle-aged woman obviously has something to do with Su Mei. Tang Ning plans to take her back to ask. What's more, she has repeatedly attacked him. If she doesn't give her some color along the way, it will be difficult to vent the evil in his heart. .

Li Tianlan looked at him and warned, "Be careful."

Tang Ning said, "Don't worry, she won't be able to regain any strength within twelve hours."

Xu Ling came over with a team of people. Even if the two of them wanted to be gentle for a while, they had no chance.

On the official road, King Zhou jumped down from the carriage, looked at the tied up middle-aged woman, and said in surprise: "Master Tang, this..."

"This is the woman who escaped from the second prince." Tangning looked at King Zhou and explained, "The princess and I went to catch the assassin."

King Zhou's eyes stayed on his face for a moment, especially on his lips, and he smiled and said: "This woman has committed a heinous crime. It would be great to catch her."

Xu Ling came over, knelt down on one knee, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Tang's life-saving grace will be unforgettable by Xu. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Several generals who had been cured of the poison by his kindness also came forward to thank him.

Tangning waved her hand and said, "We are all our own people, so you don't need to be so polite. Get up, get up..."

Li Tianlan came over and everyone quickly backed away.

She looked up at Tangning and said, "Let's go."

Tangning nodded and said, "I'll wait for you."

Her eyes stayed on Tang Ning for a long time before she turned around and got into the carriage.

"We walked!"

"Master Tang, goodbye!"

…

The generals got on their horses and waved goodbye to Tang Ning. King Zhou stuck his head out of the carriage, thought for a while, and said, "Brother Tang, you..."

Tangning looked at him and asked, "What else does the prince want?"

King Zhou pointed to his lips, looked at him, and said, "To avoid misunderstanding, Brother Tang should wipe off the lipstick on his lips first when he goes back..."
