Chapter 388: Assassination
Xu Qing looked at Li Mingyue and said, "Thank you princess for today's matter."
Li Mingyue shook her head lightly and said, "It's a small effort, and County Uncle Anding doesn't have to take it to heart."
Xiao Ruxue who was on the side said: "Sister Mingyue is very powerful, she is faster than me in mental arithmetic, and she knows a lot of practical questions, much better than the idiot who competed with me in the court!"
Su Qian also said: "The princess is indeed very proficient in fortune-telling. Don't say that Xue'er didn't realize it at the time, but when the princess passed by, she immediately pointed out the problem."
Li Mingyue smiled and said: "It's just a superficial opinion, and the bright moon on the Tao is far worse than the Anding County uncle."
Xu Qing said: "The princess is too modest."
At the same time, Xu Qing mourned in silence for the vendor's legs.
At this moment, several men in common clothes with dull eyes walked past the surrounding people seemingly unintentionally.
Su Qian frowned first, and at this moment, some of the dull-eyed men pulled out soft swords from their waists, and some took out daggers from their pockets. Without exception, they all stabbed at Li Mingyue. Come.
Mutations abound!
Su Qian, who was always on guard against her surroundings, immediately stretched out her hand to grab Li Mingyue, and dragged her to her side. With two swords and one dagger, they landed in the empty space in an instant.
After reacting, Long Bing'er and Xiao Ruxue immediately fought with those commoner men.
Long Bing'er grabbed one of them's dagger casually and fought with the two of them. Although Xiao Ruxue was unarmed, she was also skilled in martial arts, and she was evenly matched with the man she was fighting with.
Su Qian casually broke off a willow branch from the willow tree beside her and used it as a weapon to fight with three men holding short knives.
In Su Qian's hands, this soft willow branch seemed to be both rigid and soft. Although the two assassins held sharp knives that cut iron like mud, they couldn't cut off the extremely soft willow branch in Su Qian's hand.
Not only did the two assassins cut off the willow branch, but they were firmly suppressed by the willow branch in Su Qian's hand. They were afraid that they would lose after a few rounds.
Xu Qing stood beside Li Mingyue to prevent other accidents.
Seeing the fight, the pedestrians and traders around immediately moved away from the battle circle while calling for help.
Fighting in the busy city of the capital has already attracted the attention of the patrolling guards and shadow guards, and they may arrive soon.
Those assassins disguised as civilians became more and more frightened as they fought. At first they thought it was just a simple task. Although the actual actions were slightly different from the task, there were a few more women and a man around the target, but they did not Take it to heart.
But he didn't expect the martial arts of these women to be so superb.
Even this little girl is so powerful.
Standing beside Xu Qing, Li Mingyue was obviously a little frightened: "Why did they assassinate me..."
While paying attention to the surroundings, Xu Qing said, "Because if the princess is dead, Zhou Guo will have an excuse to go to war. Be careful around, there may be people lurking."
At this moment, a person suddenly rushed out from a stall on the side of the road, holding a long sword, and stabbing straight at Li Mingyue's back from behind the two of them.
Li Mingyue has no martial arts, and cannot feel the murderous aura and attacks around her.
Although Xu Qing is a rookie, he has practiced with his wife for several months. Although he is not a great master, he can be regarded as a little accomplished Martial Forest hero. Naturally, he felt the attack from behind.
When Xu Qing turned around abruptly, the sword was already half a foot away from Li Mingyue.
Seeing this scene, Xu Qing immediately stretched out his hand to hold the blade of the sharp sword that was stabbing at Princess Zhou, and abruptly stopped the long sword from advancing.
Li Mingyue turned around quickly after sensing Xu Qing's movements around her. When she saw Xu Qing holding a sharp sword in her bare hand, Li Mingyue's heart trembled instantly: "Uncle An Ding..."
But soon Li Mingyue discovered that Xu Qing was wearing an iron glove-like thing on his hand, and then he let go of his trembling mind, and quickly observed the surrounding situation to prevent further changes.
What Xu Qing is wearing is a glove made of small stainless steel hook locks and links, which can ensure the flexibility of the arms to the greatest extent. There is also a soft armor inside to relieve the impact to the greatest extent. protect hands when
Mo Heng's new work further simplifies the armor gauntlet of heavy armor into this light and fast-wearing fine steel rope glove.
It can be said to be home travel, self-defense and body protection, essential gloves.
In addition to being expensive, there is no second disadvantage!
Seeing that the long sword in his hand was suppressed and held firmly, the assassin immediately wanted to counterattack with his legs, but Xu Qing dodged it with a strange method, and then he exerted force with his hand, only heard a "click", then The long sword was broken by Xu Qing.
In the end, Xu Qing threw it casually, and the broken blade stabbed the assassin's chest like Flying Daggers.
The assassin was shot in the body by the sword, his lips turned black in an instant, and he fell down straight...
The body of the sword is actually coated with a poison that can see blood and seal the throat!
Su Qian, Long Bing'er, and Xiao Ruxue had already dealt with the assassins one after another at this time, and not far away, two teams of soldiers also ran towards here with their weapons in hand.
But it was found that the person injured by the three women had taken poison and died.
With no eyes, only tasks and goals in mind, this is a group of dead soldiers who have been secretly trained.
He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he is highly skilled in martial arts.
Instilled with servile thoughts since childhood, they will be faithful and indistinguishable.
At this moment, the glove in Xu Qing's hand slipped to the ground, but there was a clearly visible wound on his hand that was oozing blood.
Li Mingyue quickly took out a handkerchief and covered Xu Qing's blood-soaked hand: "Uncle An Ding, you are injured!"
When the people around heard this, they quickly gathered around.
Su Qian turned around, supported Xu Qing, let Xu Qing lean on her, and quickly asked, "Where is your husband hurt?"
Xiao Ruxue looked at the hand covered by Li Mingyue: "Is it hurt? No, those swords are poisonous, Xu Qing, will you..."
Xu Qing stretched out his other hand and knocked Xiao Ruxue's head: "I didn't get scratched by their weapons, put your heart in your stomach."
Long Bing'er at the side said: "No matter how the injury is, you need to bandage the wound first. I know some methods of bandaging in the army. If anyone has clean gauze, get it out quickly."
But obviously, no one would bring such things as gauze when going out.
Li Mingyue, who was covering Xu Qing's injured hand with both hands, heard Long Binger's words, and said, "I still have two handkerchiefs, maybe they can replace the gauze?"
Long Binger asked: "Is it clean?"
Li Mingyue replied: "It's clean."
Long Binger took the handkerchief and Xu Qing's injured hand from Li Mingyue, and bound Xu Qing's hand with the handkerchief.
Fortunately, the wound was not deep. Otherwise, it would have to be supplemented with medicine first, and then the gauze should be boiled before bandaging.
Long Bing'er bandaged it very carefully, and her technique was extremely quick and standard. In a short time, she finished bandaging Xu Qing's injured hand.
Supporting Xu Qing's body, Su Qian asked, "My husband's wound does not look like a sword wound. How did you hurt your hand?"
Xu Qing looked at the stainless steel rope gloves on the ground and sighed.
He was actually scratched by an untreated barb inside the glove.
I didn't feel it when I tried it on for the first time, but when I used my hand and exerted force, the barb scratched Xu Qing's hand.
This matter is the old ink's fault.
It's time to deduct his wages after I go back today!
