Fang Xu just looked at her with a smile and remained silent.
Jin Hua thought she was afraid of him and sneered, "If I can be manipulated by you so easily, how can I be the only one who survives?"
"I really admire Miss Jin Hua's skills." Fang Xu smiled with his red lips parted, "It's a pity that you are still young and do not have enough moral knowledge."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Jin Hua shouted coldly. Just as he was about to finish off Fang Xu, he realized that she couldn't hold her sword.
With a clang, the sword fell to the ground, and Jin Hua's body also went limp, and he knelt on the ground.
"How..." Jin Hua was shocked and frightened, and murmured, "What did you do..."
Jin Hua felt that her tongue had lost all feeling, and her speech was hesitant and unclear.
"Those mechanisms are just decorations, just to hold you back." Fang Xu looked away and stared at the incense burner in the room with a smile, "That's where I will use to deal with you."
"You're right. Anyone who can survive in that situation is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp." Fang Xu chuckled, got up and got out of bed, walked slowly to her, kicked away her long sword, and said softly , "How do you feel about the incense I made myself?"
"You...you..." Jin Hua stared at the woman in front of her with hatred in her heart, but she could do nothing.
Fang Xu knelt down, his eyes level with hers, "Be more knowledgeable and tell the whereabouts of the box yourself, otherwise... I will make it impossible for you to survive and die."
"Stop dreaming..." Jin Hua propped herself up, grinned, and said with sinister eyes, "If you want to harm me, you have to see if you have the ability!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Hua mobilized all her strength and rushed towards Fang Xu, trying to pull her into the Hall of Hell with her.
But before she could get closer to Fang Xu, the long sword stabbed from the side and plunged straight into Jin Hua's neck.
As soon as it was pulled out, blood flowed like a stream.
Fang Xu looked back in surprise, his eyes falling on the trembling girl holding the sword, "Su Zi, you..."
Su Zi's shoulders were shaking violently, and the sword in his hand was still dripping with blood. Even though he was very scared, he still wanted to comfort Fang Xu, "Madam, don't be afraid, my servant is here."
Jin Hua's body hit the ground, her eyes fixed on the sword, and she didn't even close her eyes when she breathed her last.
She died by her favorite sword.
As soon as Jin Hua died, the sword in Su Zi's hand fell to the ground.
Fang Xu stood up, ignoring the blood splattered on his clothes, frowning and asked, "Are you afraid of being like this, and you still want to protect me?"
Su Zi seemed to be frightened and stared at Madam, motionless.
In the house, Su Zi has always been in charge of Bai Ji inside and outside. On weekdays, Bai Ji, who has martial arts skills, usually follows Fang Xu. Su Zi Wenwen is weak and can only deal with some trivial matters in the house.
This was her first time killing someone.
Fang Xu felt very distressed when he saw her like this. He raised his hand to rub her face and said softly, "Are you scared, kid?"
Su Zi shook his head and seemed to have calmed down a lot, "Bai Ji is not here. I will try my best to protect the madam. I cannot let the madam and Bai Ji down."
Fang Xu felt warm in his heart, squeezed her numb hand, and said leisurely, "Well done, I have always recognized your ability."
Su Zi pursed her lips, a trace of guilt flashing across her face. "It's a pity... I didn't know what to do with my hands. If she died, the box would be gone."
"So much gold..."
Su Zi bit her lip, feeling only pain in her heart, wishing she could slap herself twice.
The price for being cool is losing a big box of gold.
"Don't worry." Fang Xu spoke slowly, with a calm look on his face, "She was being chased for a day while holding the box, so she was on high alert. Now that she can come here alone, it means that she can't hide the box of gold so far away from her. Too far away."
Fang Xu lowered his eyes, thought about it carefully, and said in a low voice, "Go and inform Ye Ming. Search the house and don't let go of anything on the rafters."
When Su Zi heard that the box of gold was expected to come back, he nodded hastily, "I'll go right now, slave!"
"Wait." Fang Xu stopped her, raised his chin towards the incense burner on the side, and said softly, "Throw away the incense burner."
"Throw it away..." Su Zi looked embarrassed, and began to feel distressed again, "Madam, it was a reward from the Queen Mother. It is worth thousands of gold, and there are many gems on it. It has only been used for a short time..."
"It's full of poisonous powder. Even if you wash it several times, it's useless. If you light the incense again, it's still poisonous." Fang Xu felt funny and replied casually, "If you want us to die tomorrow, why not stay here?" OK."
Su Zi was stunned, his body trembled suddenly, and he quickly stepped forward to take away the incense burner, "My slave is wrong, throw it away now."
Just as he was speaking, his footsteps suddenly stopped, "Madam, since there is poisonous powder in it, why do you and this slave have nothing to do with it?"
Fang Xu smiled sweetly, glanced at Jin Hua who was lying on the ground and breathed his last, and said softly, "The half piece of snack I fed you contains the antidote."
Su Zi suddenly understood and responded quickly, "I will find someone to dispose of the body right now!"
Fang Xu nodded and watched her leave.
Su Zi walked outside the courtyard, called Uncle Qi and Zuo Yan who were chatting aside, and said mysteriously, "Chengyuan was assassinated. Madam has already dealt with the villain. You go and clean up, shave your face, and wrap it in a straw mat." Throw it into a mass grave while it's dark, don't let others find it."
After a long while, the house was cleaned up, and Ye Ming hurriedly came to report, "Madam, the thing was found!"
Fang Xu looked back, his eyes fell on the box held in his arms, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "Bring it here and let me have a look."
"Hey." Ye Ming responded, quickly took the box over and opened it properly.
Seeing that there were many things in the box and they were neatly arranged, Fang Xu smiled slightly and whispered, "I knew it would come back."
Ye Ming stood aside and whispered, "Madam, is there anything missing in it?"
Fang Xu shook his head, casually grabbed a handful of gold beads the size of his fingertips, and handed them to Ye Ming's hand.
Ye Ming was flattered, stared at Fang Xu at a loss, and murmured, "Madam, this..."
"Take it and share it. It's a reward for everyone." Fang Xu said with a smile on his face and a very soft voice, "You have been worried and suffering by my side all these days. I can't let you not get any good things."
Ye Ming held the pile of gold beads and was dumbfounded. It took him a while to recover, "I'm so scared. I just wish I could do it more often..."
"You talkative." Fang Xu glared at him angrily and whispered, "Go down quickly, Su Zi is scared today, go and stay with her."
Ye Ming put a smile on his face and quickly agreed, "Yes!"
"By the way," Fang Xu stopped him, with a calm look on his face, and warned, "There is no need to spread the news that the thief is dead, and there is no need to withdraw the reward and wanted order. Just put it on the surface, and let people slowly forget about it. alright."
Ye Ming understood instantly and responded in a deep voice, "I understand, it's just that Lord Shen sent Wen Mo over to ask if Madam was injured. His side... do we need to inform him?"
Fang Xu's eyes flashed and he said slowly, "No need."
