Chapter 22
"Qinghe, get up quickly." Because he had been tossing so hard before, and he was with Lu Bu again, Xiu Yuan slept very deeply at night, Lu Bu yelled in his ear several times, and Xiu Yuan became dazed After realizing it, he pulled Lu Bu's ear fiercely and yelled, "Lu Fengxian, you bastard, you are so old that you still want to play tricks and stay awake."
Lu Bu's ears hurt from being pulled, and because he found that there were many assassins around outside the house, he couldn't struggle hard, so he tilted his head and kissed Xiu Yuan's face indiscriminately, and said in a low voice: "Qinghe, don't make trouble, there are people come to kill us."
Xiu Yuan was trembling from the hot air blowing in Lu Bu's ear, and he came to his senses completely. He hastily let go of the hand that was holding Lu Bu's ear in embarrassment, and under the moonlight, Xiu Yuan saw several sneaky men in black clothes downstairs. The man was very surprised: "Fengxian, how did they come here so quickly? Could it be that there are spies in our personal guard?"
Lu Bu frowned when he heard this, hesitated for a while, and pulled Xiu Yuan off the bed: "No matter what, let's go out and check the situation first, remember not to leave my side."
Having been hugging Lu Bu all this time, Xiu Yuan still didn't feel anything, after all Lu Bu's body was as warm as a small stove.Now that he got out of bed, Xiuyuan clearly felt that his whole body was sticky and uncomfortable, so he raised his hand and cast a cleansing spell on himself and Lu Bu. As soon as the faint light flashed by, Lu Bu felt a little uncomfortable. Happy: "Why use these supernatural powers casually? With Master Hou around, a few men in black are nothing."
"Fengxian, don't worry, I will never force myself with you here. This is just a Buddhist method for cleaning clothes, and even beginners can use it. Well, don't waste time because of such inexplicable things , we'd better go out and see what's going on."
Lu Bu looked carefully at Xiu Yuan's eyebrows under the cover of the moonlight, and really didn't notice anything unusual, so he held his hand tightly and ran outside the door.As soon as he went out, he saw Cao He and a group of personal guards gathered around the door. As soon as Lu Bu went out, Tang Wu reported in a low voice: "Master Hou, the owner of the tea shed was murdered and died. Tang Liu'er took a few brothers with him. Go down to protect Chituma, there are a total of twelve men in black outside, we can infer from the fact that we found them before they got close, martial arts should not be scary."
Before Tang Wu finished speaking, Xiu Yuan interrupted him: "Since these men in black were discovered by you before they got close to the tea shed, when did they enter the house and kill the boss? Are there any of you?" Who has seen the body with their own eyes?"
As soon as Xiu Yuan's words came out, everyone present understood and didn't say any more. Tang Wu took the lead and walked forward along the dim aisle. Lu Bu protected Xiu Yuan and walked in the middle two steps behind. After the members of the personal guard were terminated, everyone tacitly surrounded Xiu Yuan in the center of the team.
The tea shed was not too big, within half a quarter of an hour, Tang Wu stopped at the end of the aisle.Xiu Yuan leaned in front of the bloated corpse of the owner of the tea shed, and looked at it for a while, but found nothing unusual, so he simply took out a emerald jade tablet from his arms, circled around the corpse a few times, it should have been The dead "corpse" faintly woke up again.
Tang Wu turned pale with shock, and Lu Bu secretly concentrated his skills in his palms to be on guard. Seeing Lu Bu's stern face, Xiu Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand to break his clenched fist: "You don't have to be so careful, this guy was killed by me just now. This Soul Concentrating Jade was originally a Taoist treasure given to me by the Immortal of Heaven Beyond Heaven. The reason why you didn't see through the fake death of this guy lying on the ground is because he didn't use martial arts, but an extremely rare Spells, let your soul temporarily hide away from the body, these souls have been absorbed by the soul-condensing jade just now."
"But because of this, I suddenly had a plan. Since these people have mediocre martial arts and there are as many as twelve, then we will kill a few of them, then pretend to be them, and follow the rest with Chituma Since the Huns are very fond of good horses, they must take Chitu to the master, as long as they know who is behind the scenes, the rest of the matter will be much easier."
Tang Wu naturally had no objection after hearing Xiuyuan's plan, and he quickly asked: "Then according to the military division's opinion, which ones should we keep?"
Xiu Yuan leaned on Lu Bu's shoulder, and thought for a while: "Since we want to use the red rabbit as bait, then we should kill everyone who has seen the red rabbit, and when the rest of them rush over, we will pretend to be Go back with them in the appearance of an assassin, and just find a few people to pretend to be the corpse. Since their martial arts are mediocre, they will definitely not be able to find them. Tang Wu quickly conveyed my order, and as soon as we leave, the rest of them will Set fire to clean up this tea shed, so as not to leave any clues to be teased out."
Tang Wu bowed slightly towards Xiu Yuan, then stretched out his movements and flew out of the window.Lu Bu and Xiu Yuan waited together on the second floor for a while before going to join them. Soon, the assassin in charge of searching the second floor came back, and Tang Wu, who pretended to be one of the assassins, immediately stepped forward and said, "We have already dispatched the people below. It's been cleaned up, I think this horse is not bad, do you want to take it back to the master?"
The assassin didn't answer when he heard the words, and suddenly turned around and attacked Tang Wu without any warning. Tang Wu had been on guard for a long time, and killed the assassin with a single palm, and there were several more in the distance. The man in black spoke to Tang Wu, apparently familiar with the man in this suit: "Namu, how are you doing?"
Tang Wu lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "I'm fine, it's just..."
The black-clothed man who spoke to Tang Wu looked down at the corpse on the ground, kicked a feather arrow that Cao Xing had just made up with his toes, and said with a clear expression: "It seems that Qingmu has been plotted against, but finally The horse was snatched after completing the mission, the weather is so damn cold, we should take the horse and report to the master quickly, or we will be reprimanded by the master if it is too late."
Tang Wu didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so he hurriedly threw the hidden weapon he had been holding on his fingertips towards Lu Bu.Lu Bu reached out to pick it up, took Xiu Yuan and three other personal guards pretending to be assassins, followed Tang Wu, and walked towards Shawa with the leading man in black.
Seeing that Lu Bu and the others were lagging behind by a long distance, the leading man in black didn't care. He took Tang Wu's hand and walked forward. Obviously, this was the usual action pattern of this group of assassins.Tang Wu noticed that the man in black was gripping his hand so tightly that it was even painful. Although he found it strange, he just frowned slightly, and patiently endured without opening his mouth. On the contrary, the man in black Couldn't hold back any longer, he leaned into Tang Wu's ear and said, "Namu, this group of people are good at martial arts and are good at using hidden weapons. You have been lazy since you were practicing martial arts since you were young. You don't know how worried I am. Fortunately, you It's okay." As he said that, he put his head on Tang Wu's shoulder with a reassuring look, and Tang Wu was afraid that he would see his flaws, so he froze and didn't dare to move.
The man in black obviously had much higher martial arts than what Cao Xing and the others had dealt with before, and he soon noticed the stiffness on Tang Wu's body, and he whispered in Tang Wu's ear as if flattering: "Namu, don't be afraid, When I go back, I will ask you to beat me with a whip to suppress my shock, and I must remember in the future, don’t leave my side casually when performing tasks, I am really worried.”
Tang Wu was stunned for a while when he heard the words, and really didn't know how to answer the words, so he suppressed his voice and gave a muffled hum. The man in black was obviously relieved, turned around and hugged Tang Wu by the waist, and started to hurry , the speed was so fast that Tang Wu had no time to react, when he was about to shoot the hidden weapon in his sleeve in horror, the man said softly: "You must be tired after you have been out for so long, take advantage of going back Take a nap on the way."
Tang Wu retracted his hands in his sleeves, put his head on the acupoints on the waist of the man in black, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
