after the villain

43.

Jiang Xu ignored the warning and scolding from the envoy of Da Chengguo, and ordered Yuyi to untie Koldan's clothes, but he couldn't find anything, instead, he revealed his shriveled body that was deliberately covered by the clothes, which was completely different from his fresh face. , that body looked as if it had been drained of blood—it was no different from those corpses brought out of mass graves in Huaiyang City.

"Ouch!" The face of the people who saw this scene was almost pale, and they subconsciously felt a sense of physical nausea.

Yu Yi didn't expect that, he was slightly startled, and then searched all over, "My lord, I didn't find anything."

Jiang Xu's expression was indifferent and he didn't say yes or no, but he took out a piece of cloth from nowhere to cover his mouth and nose, kicked his boots forward, and made a "dongdong" sound in the dead silence. He picked up all the clothes with his toes, and turned the corpse sideways for a look.

This time, no one dared to say that he was insulting the third prince's body, because all the envoys of Dacheng Kingdom were vomiting.

Ji Wuming's position has a good view, but since Jiang Xu and his confidants entered the yard, they blocked his view by accident. He could realize that there might be something abnormal about the corpse, but until Jiang Xu stepped forward, The fish opened together, and Loldan's body was turned sideways, so that he could see the shriveled corpse clearly.

He judged it almost at a glance, "Chi Luochan."

Jiang Xu and he spoke at the same time, with a positive tone, but what they said was, "Blood Demon Art."

The two voices were intertwined, and not many people paid attention to it, so Ji Wuming didn't know well.

Sure enough, he saw Jiang Xu's cold eyes, like a poisonous snake that has found its prey, stabbing towards him.

Yan Jingyu instinctively read the threat and killing intent from Jiang Xu's sinister gaze, without hesitation, or it could be said subconsciously, he reacted quickly as if he swept aside, distanced himself from Ji Wuming, and Deliberately stepped on the roof tiles and made some small trampling sounds, pretending to be found and about to run.

——In fact, it is to tune the tiger away from the mountain, so as not to put Ji Wuming in danger.

Yan Jingyu knows that Ah Man is very powerful, even if he can only display [-]% of his strength, he can definitely defeat him easily, but Yan Jingyu is instinctive and doesn't want Ji Wuming to fall into a passive situation.

In the past, he was always told to move by others, but this time he took the initiative to make room for living.

Yan Jingyu's speed was very fast, and there was a soft sound in the dark night, even Ji Wuming didn't react for a moment, just in such a dazed moment, when he stretched out his hand again, he only got an afterimage.

Jiang Xu was really fooled, he snorted coldly, "Where are we going", stepped out of the room with his confidants one after another, and chased after him.

Although Jiang Xu and Yu Yi are not as good as Yan Jingyu in their lightness skills, they are familiar with the terrain and have the advantage of being behind.Yan Jingyu needs to step on the tiles all the way to fly to the next location, and they can choose which point to chase and intercept.

Not to mention, there are spies from the six gates inside and outside the post station, swarming up with just one order.

The ear-piercing whistle pierced the night sky, and the detectives from the six gates, wearing round-neck purple court uniforms, climbed up to the roof one after another like dumplings in a pot.

When Yan Jingyu heard the whistle from afar, she knew that she had no way to retreat, and she would be stopped as it should be.

He didn't rush or panic, he deliberately slowed down a step to give Jiang Xu who was chasing up with all his strength a little bit, shook the short knife in his sleeve and held it in his palm, twisted his toes suddenly, and turned back to meet Jiang directly with an imposing manner. Xu crosses the knife!

The cold light suddenly appeared, and a sharp silver light was dragged out of the night sky. The ferocious beast lured the enemy into a trap, and then showed its sharp fangs, trying to seal their throats with blood.

Jiang Xu really didn't expect that he would turn around and slash. Under the full chase, he had no chance to make a move to resist. He just bent back with a subconscious reaction, and his whole body was almost stretched into an arch bridge.

The cold light flew dangerously close to the tip of his nose, and a strand of hair flying up was cut off by the sharp knife light, but it was not over yet.

Yan Jingyu had a beast-like intuition, and was already prepared for him to avoid this killer move. The moment Jiang Xu bent down, he took out the poisoned dagger with his other hand, and his cold pandemonium With a dull and dark black light, it stabs obliquely with a trajectory completely different from that of the dagger.

Jiang Xu's eyes turned cold, and his internal energy gushed out like a floodgate, and the dagger couldn't get an inch away from his face.

At this moment, he turned his head to dodge, then got up and kicked in a roundabout, kicking Yan Jingyu's wrist with great force, his hand went numb, and the dagger was kicked away.

The cold light reflected the young man's face, those dark phoenix eyes.

Jiang Xu recognized him immediately, "It's you."

Yan Jingyu didn't pay attention to him, and didn't react because of the pain. The hand that was kicked to the wrist was propped up on the ground, and the whole person stood upside down in the air, flipping the dagger on his wrist and changing his moves quickly, facing Jiang Xu Chop off at the ankle.

The two of them just passed by each other, and they already exchanged no less than ten moves, just a few breaths away.

Jiang Xu said coldly, "So you are an assassin. Does Bai Weiyu also want to come to Luoyang to get involved?"

Same as Ji Wuming's initial judgment, Jiang Xu and Yan Jingyu's short fight has already determined that he is an assassin of one of the twelve Earthly Branches of the Weiyu Tower.

Yan Jingyu ignored him, the blade turned and approached again.

"Heh." Jiang Xu opened his cloak, stretched his hand to his waist, and made a gesture to pull out the unsheathed knife.

"bass!"

A shiny cold light flashed, the saber was out of its sheath, but it wasn't Jiang Xu who pulled it out.

Ji Wuming also chased after Yan Jingyu and Jiang Xu the moment they fought, and he could tell at a glance that Yan Jingyu was not Jiang Xu's opponent.

Yan Jingyu is an assassin after all, if he hides and waits for an opportunity to assassinate, it is true that few people can escape, but he has already revealed his identity, so the assassination technique is no longer treacherous and unexpected.If he didn't fall behind in other aspects, except for the assassination technique, he was also among the strong in other aspects, he might have been killed by Jiang Xu in one blow.

Jiang Xu is proud of himself, he didn't use any weapons when he fought Yan Jingyu, and he hid it so deeply that even Ji Wuming couldn't see through his strength at a glance, and only realized his prowess during the few moves he fought with ease.

Seeing that he was about to draw the sword, Ji Wuming was worried that Yan Jingyu would be injured, so he couldn't wait any longer, so he rushed over to slash his hands to hide the knife.

The strange thing is that when he was approaching, Jiang Xu had already spotted him, but unexpectedly gave him a pause, and just let him hide the knife.

Although Ji Wuming was puzzled, the spies from the six doors had already surrounded him, he didn't have time to think too much, he picked up the sharp knife to protect Yan Jingyu and took two steps back, facing Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu moved his fingers, and finally hung them down to hide in the cloak. His expression was indescribably strange, and he fell straight on Ji Wuming.

"you--"

"Lord Dutong! I'll come to help you!" Jiang Xu was interrupted by the spies from the six doors who rushed to his mouth just as he was about to say it.

Jiang Xu's voice dropped another level in an instant, "Stop it all!"

"My lord!" Everyone in the six doors was puzzled.

Jiang Xu spit out two words coldly, "Shut up."

After stopping his men, he turned to look at Ji Wuming, the moon was going west, the night was coming to an end, the sky was foggy, I don't know if it was an illusion, Ji Wuming always felt that Jiang Xu's expression was a bit complicated and obscure, and also a little inexplicable Forbearance.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Xu's voice was hoarse, not as gloomy as before, with a forceful and persecuting aura.

It sounded a little gentle.

Ji Wuming was full of doubts, but there was a gentle smile on his face, his peach eyes sparkled, and he said with a bit of helplessness, "I said I just passed by by accident, do you believe it?"

It was indeed an accident that he would chase after him to the post station, and he did not expect that the third prince Kuldan would die by such a coincidence.

——No, it's not a coincidence, someone has already set up a trap waiting for someone to jump, but I don't know who it is for.

But although this is the truth, it is estimated that no one will believe it.Thinking about it, Ji Wuming also looked a little helpless.

Jiang Xu replied, "I believe it."

"We did pass by by accident...Huh? Did you believe it?" Ji Wuming had already prepared his words, but he didn't expect Jiang Xu to play his cards out of common sense to say that he believed it. He rarely blinked his peach blossom eyes in a daze. , some did not respond.

Jiang Xu nodded, and said again, "I believe this matter has nothing to do with you, you go."

Ji Wuming: "..."

Although he didn't know what kind of madness Jiang Xu was playing, but since they all said to let them go, wouldn't it be necessary to wait until he repented if they didn't leave now?

Without a word, Ji Wuming pulled Yan Jingyu to leave.

Yu Yiluo seemed to have something to report by his side, and Jiang Xu realized that there was only a scabbard left around his waist.

"Wait." My knife.

Before the words fell, a sudden change occurred.

Hearing a strange, unmasculine laughter, several black balls were thrown towards Ji Wuming's position.

Ji Wuming's eyes turned cold, and he moved the knife in his hand casually. With a few cold lights, the black ball thrown head-on split into two halves and fell around.

After he saw what it was, his complexion became even worse. He grabbed Yan Jingyu and said, "It's Thunderball! Let's go!"

Without saying a word, Yan Jingyu tightly hugged Ji Wuming's waist with one hand, and swept away like an afterimage.

Almost the moment he left the ground, those thunderballs lit up scorchingly brightly, and with a bang, they instantly blew up a house!

Even the two surrounding houses were affected, and there were screams everywhere.

Ji Wuming didn't keep his voice down when he said Thunderbolt, and everyone at the six doors heard it. Jiang Xu's expression changed even more, and he ordered everyone to evacuate to the side. His first reaction was to step forward, but was stopped by his confidant Yuyi. step back.

They were all in the outer circle. Although they were not as fast as Yan Jingyu, they were generally not injured.

Amidst the rising smoke and dust, a figure gradually appeared, and the malevolent voice said with a sneer, "What is Jiang Dutong doing so dawdling? Do you want our family to help you clean up the mess?"

When the smoke and dust cleared, it was a man with white hair and childlike face who was also wearing a black court dress with a round collar and a tall round hat with two strings of beads hanging from the brim of the hat.

Not only did he have a high-pitched voice, but he also had a charming smile from his daughter's family.

Jiang Xu waved his cloak, looked at the man with a murderous intent brewing in his eyes, and pronounced his name word by word, "Xue, Tian, ​​Yang!"

The author has something to say: the same suspect at the crime scene

Jiang Xu said to Yan Jingyu: die.

Jiang Xu said to Ji Wuming: Well, you go, I will take care of things.

Rival comparison

Yan Jingyu: Man, I have something to say.

Old man: Li Yang is going to come over and swallow the key.

Jiang Xu: I have something to say.

Everyone at the Six Doors: Boss, come on!Fight up fight!

Jiang Xu: ...

So there is a reason why Jiang Xu is the second male lead.
