Raiders, loyal dog

Chapter 45

It was a sunny day before, but in the blink of an eye, it began to drizzle.But there was still no wind, and the originally blue sky became dark and oppressive for a while, which made people feel a little depressing.

The boatman rowed the boat absent-mindedly, turning his head to look in the direction of the cabin from time to time, and then, as if he was afraid of something, he turned his head back quickly.After waiting anxiously for a while, according to what those people said, it was estimated that the time was almost up, so he put the penny aside and entered the cabin lightly.

Stopping outside the door of Ling Zixiu's room, he carefully reached out his hand to poke a small hole in the paper window, then swallowed hard, collected himself, and then slowly moved his head towards the small hole. .

Compared with before, the arrangement in this room was obviously a bit messy, Xuan Wu and Xuan Liu fell on the ground a little askew, and there were some fragments of porcelain bowls beside them.Seeing this, the boatman felt a little more at ease, moved his steps, and looked at the bed again from a different angle.

On the bed, a young man in white clothes was half lying on his stomach in a coma, and his condition didn't look very good.

But... what about the boy in the black robe?The boatman continued to look in strangely.Those young men in yellow clothes have already specifically explained to him that it doesn't matter who has an accident among these people, and I would like to apologize to Gotama

In other words, among these four people, the young man is the key person, and he must die.The boatman looked inside hard, and an anxious look began to appear on his face again: But where is that young man now?Why didn't you see him?

"I said, boatman, are you looking for me?"

Behind him, a slightly immature voice suddenly sounded, the voice was played very softly, but in the small space that was so silent at this moment, it seemed to be placed countless times, listening to the voice of the boatman No less than a bolt from the blue in my ears.

Hearing the voice, the boatman turned around and looked at the boy he hadn't found in the room. He staggered in fright and leaned against the door, barely supporting the door frame with his hands to ensure that his body would not slip. go down.

"You...you..." The boatman looked at Ling Zixiu, who was wearing a silver mask and looked at him expressionlessly. For some reason, although he was only a half-grown child, he felt a chilling feeling. pressure.

"Why are you stopping at my door? Didn't you come to see me?" Ling Zixiu looked at him and asked calmly.His expression was extremely natural, and he didn't know the sadness and killing intent shown after his companion was killed.

Maybe, he doesn't know yet.

As if seeing a glimmer of hope, the boatman propped himself up, smiled reluctantly and said, "I, I thought it was getting late, so I came here to ask the young master if you want to start preparing lunch."

"Oh, that's it." Ling Zixiu listened to the boatman's explanation, as if he didn't have any doubts about this reason, nodded, and said to him expressionlessly, "For this kind of thing, you go and talk to me. The attendant said it’s all right.” Then, he took a step forward, looked up at the boatman slightly, and said coldly, “Now, get out of the way. You are blocking my way.”

"No, I'm sorry, I'll give in right away, right away." The boatman moved his body in panic, watching Ling Zixiu go around him, his hands had already covered the door, and when he was about to push the door, the boatman was ruthless Ruthlessly, he suddenly took out a dagger from his bosom, and stabbed fiercely at Ling Zixiu's back.

"Chong!"

Ling Zixiu didn't even turn his head, he directly pulled out the soft sword wrapped around his waist like a belt with one hand, raised his backhand, and easily blocked the boatman's blow.Because the force used when the dagger collided with the soft sword was too strong, the boatman lost his grip on the dagger in his hand and was directly knocked out.

How, how come!That's just a brat, how could it be possible...to have so much strength!

"What's the meaning of Chuanjia?" Ling Zixiu looked at the shocked boatman, flicked the soft sword in his hand, and the sword that was injected with internal force became extremely hard in an instant.He moved so slowly that he placed the sword on the opponent's neck carelessly, then sneered, and said, "With such a little ability, those idiots of the yellow team dare to use you? It's just that the success is not enough to fail. "

"The boatman is just a poor man who can't see his identity clearly, an insignificant little person, Xiaoxiu, don't scare him any more, just ask what you want." Ling Zixiu asked, suddenly, Behind him, the door was pushed open.The boatman raised his head subconsciously, met the other party's smiling eyes, and was so frightened that he almost fainted for a while.

"You, you, you..." The boatman's eyes widened, he couldn't even speak quickly, looking into Qiao Zhibai's eyes, he almost shouted: "The evil spirits are scattered".

"Ginger water is unpalatable, but the boatman specially added some wonderful seasonings for us. The taste is really unflattering." Qiao Zhibai bent down and looked at the boatman, "So, I had to drink Throw away that bowl of ginger water. Tsk, doesn't that sound like a waste?"

The boatman swallowed nervously, and immediately after Qiao Zhibai, he saw the pair of twin brothers and sisters who should have been dead come out of the room step by step. The similar faces of the brothers and sisters showed no expression, just One was holding a sword, the other was holding a long whip, and then walked towards him slowly.

It's over.The boatman finally collapsed on the ground as if resigned to his fate, his face was ashen-like.

"Okay, now the game time is over, boatman, let me give you another chance, how about talking with us about what you know before the wind direction changes?" Ling Zixiu pointed the sword in his hand at the boatman's neck. Getting closer, the sharp blade cut through the skin, and soon a bloodstain appeared there.

The boatman was almost so frightened by this accident that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart. He trembled all over, and repeatedly asked for forgiveness: "Don't kill me, please don't kill me, I said, I said, I will tell you everything."

"Then, please start from the beginning in detail." Ling Zixiu said lightly.

"Yes, yes, I know, I know." The boatman swallowed hard again, and then tried to recall, "Just this morning, after a few people disembarked, I was resting on the boat, and suddenly there was a man in yellow clothes. The young master found me. He gave me a sum of money, and the pearl flower, and asked me to find a way to put the contents of the pearl flower into your food. He said, as long as the youngest young master among you dies He will give me another 1000 taels of silver so that I can live the rest of my life without worrying about food and clothing. Gentlemen, I’m really infatuated for a while, please don’t kill me, please don’t kill me!”

Ling Zixiu looked coldly at the ugly face of the boatman with snot and tears, and after a long time, he asked lightly, "What does that young man in yellow look like?"

"Big, probably about the same age as this young master," the boatman pointed at Qiao Zhibai tremblingly, "He is very handsome, and, and, ah, yes, and, I remember the yellow clothes There is a tear mole in the corner of the son's eye."

"Tear mole? That should be Huang Liu, that's right." Ling Zixiu frowned, "The 'Hou' of the Huang team dispatched one so quickly?"

"But judging from the usual style of the 'hou' of the yellow group, this time, it's just a small test for us." Xuan Wu continued Ling Zixiu's words, "Or we can take advantage of the burden of stealing and stealing the ring." Comparable to the plaque of Egypt, the scapula, the condemnation of the horsefly bag, Huan Su's diarrhea!

Ling Zixiu withdrew his sword, withdrew his internal energy, and then wrapped the sword around his waist again: "That person really has a bad personality as always."

"So, Xiaoxiu, what should we do with this person?" Qiao Zhibai looked at the terrified boatman, and then asked.

"Him?" Ling Zixiu kicked the boatman's waist and said calmly, "Now, jump off this boat. Then, swim to the shore by yourself. As long as you don't appear in front of me again, I won't kill you." do you understand?"

Hearing that Ling Zixiu was going to let him go, the boatman nodded quickly, scrambled out of the cabin, and jumped directly from the boat into the river without hesitation.

"Is it okay?" Qiao Zhibai stood on the deck and looked at the boatman who was really struggling to swim to the river bank, and turned to ask Ling Zixiu.

"It doesn't matter." Ling Zixiu smiled lightly, "As early as the beginning, he had already been poisoned by Huang Liu. According to the toxicity of the medicine, it's time to have an attack... Well, brother, you look."

Qiao Zhibai followed Ling Zixiu's line of sight, and saw that the boatman, who was fine just now, suddenly seemed to be drowning, desperately splashing water on the spot.The water splashed everywhere, and you could find the movement over there if you looked at it from a distance.

The action of fetching water only lasted about ten seconds, and then, the struggle of the boatman subsided a little bit, and after that, everything gradually returned to calm.

"You...you already knew about it?" Qiao Zhibai looked back at Ling Zixiu with a frown.

Ling Zixiu nodded: "Huang Liu has always done things like this, like a disgusting spider. Even if those spider webs can't restrict your movements, they still tightly wrap around your body, and you can't get them clean no matter what you do."

But knowing that the result is like this, he lied to others to let him go... such a small repair, his personality is not much better, right?Qiao Zhibai sighed silently, then reached out and rubbed Ling Zixiu's head: But, forget it, who called this kid his younger brother.

the other end.

"Well, it looks like it really failed." The young man in yellow looked at the swollen corpse that was washed by the water, raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled with the corners of his lips bent, "But , this can be regarded as a greeting. Well, nineteen, we should go."

Beside the young man, a boy about nine or ten years old frowned and murmured unwillingly, "Is it useless to track fans? Obviously that man looks like a cowardly old man, why, he was discovered?"

"So, Nineteen, don't be too arrogant because of your talent. There are many people who are better than you in this world." The young man gave the child a cold look, and then turned around first. Take a step, "Let's go."

"...Yes, my lord." The child called Nineteen followed the young man listlessly with a sullen face.

Is the king's brother in the Xuanzu?Nineteen lowered his head, and slowly, showed another innocent smile, I remember you.
