Chapter 217 Big Surprise

Zhang Xiaohui looked at Adams who was about to break through, but the expression on her face was very complicated. After all, her original plan today was to poison Adams, a foreign master, with poisoned wine, paving the way for her lover to seize power. If the breakthrough is successful, then the strength will be even stronger, and it will be even more difficult for Yang Zhongguo to kill the opponent.

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Xiaohui decided to sneak attack Adams while he was focused on breaking through, and kill this master from the Vast Sea Empire.Although she is not a martial artist herself, she heard that when a martial artist breaks through a big realm, she must not move indiscriminately, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted, and this gave her a chance to sneak attack the opponent.She didn't believe that the other party could escape this disaster without being able to move.

With such thoughts in mind, a sharp dagger in Zhang Xiaohui's sleeve slipped silently into his palm.

Don't look at Adams who can't move now, but he can also observe the outside situation. After all, at his level, it is impossible for his mental strength to be so weak!Even with eyes closed, the situation within a range of several kilometers can be seen clearly through divine sense.

But when he saw Zhang Xiaohui walking towards him with a sharp dagger in his hand, he felt very puzzled in his heart.He had already discovered before that this city lord's wife was an ordinary person with no cultivation base, so how dare the other party come to assassinate such a golden core master like him!Didn't the other party carefully investigate his situation before the assassination!For a Jindan master like him, even if he has never practiced any special body training techniques, because of his background as a warrior, his physical strength will not be much worse!It was impossible for such a small dagger to break through his defense.

Before Adams could figure out why the other party came to assassinate him so recklessly, Zhang Xiaohui walked up to his back lightly, and then stabbed the back of him with the dagger in his hand.

With a snap, the dagger made of fine steel broke directly after stabbing Adams.

Looking at the broken dagger, Zhang Xiaohui froze there for a moment. After all, in her impression, no matter how powerful those warriors were, their physical body could not resist the sharp sword!And just now the opponent obviously didn't gather any fighting spirit armor defense, how could this dagger be broken directly!

Zhang Xiaohui, who didn't believe in evil, pulled out a decorative long sword from the wall after recovering, and stabbed Adams fiercely again.

It can be seen that the quality of this decorative long sword is indeed good. Under Zhang Xiaohui's full thrust, the sword body was extremely bent, but it did not break directly, but flicked again after Zhang Xiaohui exhausted all her strength. back.

Because the long sword rebounded with too much force, Zhang Xiaohui, who had never practiced martial arts, was unable to hold the long sword for a while, and the long sword fell to the ground with a clang.

But this sound caught the attention of the guards outside the door, and those guards immediately rushed into the hall nervously.

"Ma'am, what's going on?"

The guards were all very surprised when they entered the door and looked at the scene in front of them.

Zhang Xiaohui rolled her eyes, and immediately pointed to Adams who was still in the breakthrough and said to the guards: "It's this guy, it's him who wanted to moleste me, that's why I acted in self-defense, you see, my dagger was destroyed He interrupted!"

When these guards heard that Adams, an outsider, dared to moleste the mayor's wife, they were all furious. One of the most anxious guards immediately stabbed Adams fiercely with a long sword.

The strength of this soldier is indeed good, and there was a sound of sword whistling when he drew his sword.If it is an ordinary martial artist, facing this sword while unable to move, he may not die or be seriously injured.

It's a pity that Adams has practiced "Indestructible Hegemony Body". Although he barely cultivated to the fifth floor, ordinary cold weapons can't hurt him.

So in the next second, there was only a shock, and the guard was actually taken back several steps by the counter-shock force from the long sword, and almost fell to the ground.

"What's the situation?" The guards were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

Zhang Xiaohui was coming up with ideas at this time: "Use a crossbow and a musket to blast him. I don't believe that his body is really as indestructible as steel!"

Hearing Zhang Xiaohui's idea, several of the guards immediately fetched military crossbows, and then shot the Mitsubishi cone-headed crossbow arrows specially used for armor-piercing at Adams.

Unfortunately, after these crossbow arrows were shot at Adams, they were still bounced away one after another, unable to cause any effective damage to Adams at all.

The last guard even brought a large-caliber flintlock rifle and fired it at Adams.

The flintlock bullet was not bounced away. Due to the large kinetic energy, the bullet was crushed into a flat metal piece on Adams' body, and the entire bullet stuck to Adams' body.

After the guard who fired the shot took the bullet fragments that were still warm from Adams' body with an expression of disbelief, he had to admit that they really had nothing to do with him.

Faced with this situation, Zhang Xiaohui was also startled and frightened, her body began to tremble unconsciously, thinking what kind of monster she had provoked!
"Use bombardment! Didn't five cannons arrive a few days ago! I don't believe that even the cannons can't kill this guy!" Finally, Zhang Xiaohui ordered to the guards a little hoarsely.

Faced with Zhang Xiaohui's order, those guards did not act immediately, the guard captain stepped forward and reminded Zhang Xiaohui: "Madam, without the order of the city lord or General Yang Zhongguo, we have no right to mobilize ordnance such as cannons." Heavy!"

"What shit city lords and generals, don't they all listen to me, you guys, stop talking nonsense to me, go and get me the cannon immediately!" Hearing what the guards said, Zhang Xiaohui couldn't help but cursed angrily stand up.

Facing the angry city lord's wife, these guards were also very frightened. After all, the city lord's wife could really be said to be the one-handed ruler in the Pearl City. Once she offended the other party, there would be absolutely nothing good to gain.

But just when these guards were about to forcibly retrieve the artillery, a burst of tyrannical grudge energy suddenly erupted from Adams, and Zhang Xiaohui and the guards were all blown away by surprise.

And after this blast of vindictive energy, Adams, who had been sitting cross-legged on his seat, finally opened his eyes and stood up slowly.

"You guys, you guys have beaten me so many times, you should have beaten me enough! I got to you first...!"

After Adams' words fell, his figure disappeared in place like lightning, and the guards and Zhang Xiaohui could no longer see his whereabouts clearly.

At this time, Zhang Xiaohui really regretted it, knowing that she had provoked an extremely terrifying master, and such a master was beyond her ability to calculate.It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world.As soon as this thought came to her mind, she felt a burst of force from her abdomen, which knocked her into the air, and finally hit the door frame hard, causing her to feel as if all the bones in her body were in pain. It was as if it had been broken, and mouthfuls of sour water were constantly spitting out from the mouth because of the heavy blow to the abdomen.

In fact, compared to those guards, Zhang Xiaohui's fate is relatively good. Those guards were also attacked by Adams when they couldn't see Adams clearly, and all of them were killed with one blow, and their heads were moved one by one. Home.The reason why Zhang Xiaohui was not killed on the spot was because Adams still had many questions and wanted to ask the other party, and secondly, the other party was the wife of the city lord Xu Fugui after all, so even if he wanted to kill him, he had to explain the reason to the other party Let's do it again, it's polite enough!

After eliminating all the enemies, Adams began to look for the city lord Xu Fugui, and finally he found him in the other's bedroom.

What made Adams frown was that Xu Fugui's lips were black at this moment, he was sweating profusely, and fell into a coma.The other party's appearance is obviously a symptom of poisoning!Moreover, the toxin has already invaded his heart veins, and ordinary people are really helpless when encountering this situation.

Fortunately, Adams is not an ordinary person, not to mention that he has just successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and he also carries a lot of pills on his body, which can be used to help the other party relieve symptoms.

After some treatment, most of the toxins in Xu Fugui's body were forced out by Adams, and the remaining toxins immersed in his bone marrow could only be slowly excreted by the other party's subsequent metabolism.

And after the toxins in his body were basically cleaned up, Xu Fugui finally woke up successfully. He was also very surprised when he saw Adams sitting on his bedside.

"Brother Adams, why are you here?"

Seeing the surprised look of the other party, Adams knew that he was probably played by the wife of the city lord, so he hurriedly told Xu Fugui about his previous experience.

And Xu Fugui was very scared after listening to Adams' narration, thinking that if the other party came one step later, he was afraid that he would really die of poison!

Originally, he really wanted to win over the master of the Hanhai Empire to help him get rid of the pair of dogs and men, but his plan has not officially started to be implemented yet!This bitch Zhang Xiaohui is already ready to strike first, not only directly increasing the dose of poison in his food, trying to poison him to death in advance, but also using his name to trick Adams into the city lord's mansion , wanted to poison Adams with poisoned wine.

If it weren't for Adams' own incomparable strength, I'm afraid he would really be succeeded by the opponent!
It has to be said that he really narrowly escaped death this time, and for Adams, the foreign aid who brought him this big surprise, the more he looked at it, the more pleasing he was.

"By the way, you said that bitch isn't dead yet, right? Brother Adams, please bring her here. I'd like to ask her, how can I feel sorry for her, and let her do such a thing?" The matter of poisoning and murdering your own husband!"

Seeing Xu Fugui's agitated appearance, Adams hurriedly comforted the other party, so that the other party would not faint again, and then hurriedly dragged Zhang Xiaohui, who was beaten to death by him, to Xu Fugui's bedroom.

Looking at Zhang Xiaohui's embarrassed appearance, Xu Fugui's face could not help showing the joy of getting revenge, and his whole person's mental state improved a lot, but his face was still very pale, which was caused by the long-term poisoning of his body by chronic poison. I can only make up for it slowly in the future.

Zhang Xiaohui also seemed to understand that she probably had no way out today, so before Xu Fugui could speak, she raised herself up with the last of her strength and shouted: "Don't be complacent, you two, most of the army in Baozhu City is under the control of Yang In the hands of Zhong Guo, once he finds out that something happened to me, he will definitely bring soldiers over to take revenge, and then both of you will die with me, die together! Haha...!"

Seeing that bitch Zhang Xiaohui dared to be so arrogant and even threatened them when she was about to die, Xu Fugui's anger was immediately aroused again. He pulled out the long sword beside his bed and slashed at Zhang Xiaohui's chest. stab out.

The sharp long sword pierced Zhang Xiaohui's chest with a puff, and then Xu Fugui pulled out the long sword with a backhand swipe, and a large pool of blood also shot out, splashing him. Head and face.

Zhang Xiaohui looked down at the bloody wound on her chest, her eyes were still full of disbelief, she raised her hands as if to cover the wound, but unfortunately she only lifted it to the normal level, and felt the strength in her body drain away quickly , the whole person fell limp to the ground very quickly, he could only twitch from time to time as the blood flowed, and he was completely out of breath after a while.

After wiping the blood off his face, Xu Fugui looked at Zhang Xiaohui who was lying in a pool of blood, and laughed sadly, thinking that Xu Fugui was originally a wealthy man who owned a closed city of his own. The nobleman should have lived a comfortable and unrestrained life, but because of unknown people, he married such a ruthless wife, causing most of his life to be ruined by the other party. If Adams hadn't appeared in time, even Will he be poisoned to death by the other party for no apparent reason in his sleep!
Adams looked at Xu Fugui's appearance and didn't know how to comfort him. After all, he had no similar experience and could not understand how miserable the other person was at this time.Besides, as a warrior, he is not good at words, so he can only temporarily act as the other party's bodyguard, allowing the other party to vent their emotions to their heart's content and avoid others from disturbing this poor man.

And just when Xu Fugui personally killed the wife who had betrayed him, a guard at the City Lord's Mansion also informed Yang Zhongguo of the changes that had occurred at the City Lord's Mansion, who was patrolling with a group of cavalry.

Since the guard was not in charge of the inner courtyard, he only heard some abnormal movements from the inner courtyard. There was definitely a death in the courtyard, so the guard felt that something was wrong and had to tell Yang Zhongguo.
