Sensing something strange, Changsheng dared to delay, so he rushed into the backyard using his body skills.
When they arrived in the backyard, they immediately noticed two black figures outside the room where Yang Kai was located. Both of them were wearing black night clothes. One of them stood outside the window and peered into the house, while the other stood at the door and moved the door bolt.
There was still candlelight in Yang Kai's room, indicating that Yang Kai had not rested yet. If he had not been poisoned and passed out, Yang Kai would not have heard the sound of the door bolt being moved.
Seeing that the assassin had not yet entered the house, Chang Sheng felt relieved. Naturally, he would not show mercy to such a shameless person who stabbed people in the back. When the opponent was not alert and turned around, he rushed up quickly, thrust out his right fist, and hit the assassin in front of the window. Jade pillow behind the head.
The assassin, like Chang Sheng, both had Dong Xuan cultivation and light blue aura. However, at this time, this person was concentrating on spying on the situation in the house. When he heard the strange noise and turned around eagerly, Chang Sheng had already approached, and the assassin had no time to fight back. He could only dodge eagerly, trying to avoid the vital point.
Seeing the assassin withdrawing and retreating, Changsheng immediately changed his moves, shifted his center of gravity, and instead of hitting the back of the head with his right fist, he kicked the front of the chest with his right foot. He kicked the assassin in the middle of the chest, and before the assassin staggered back, he twisted his waist and spun around. , his left foot hit Tianshu again, and two important points were hit hard. The assassin groaned, and collapsed to the ground.
Judging from the figure, this person was undoubtedly a man, but when he heard his moaning in pain and sounded like a woman's voice, when he glanced back quickly, he discovered that this person was holding a blowtorch for blowing poisonous needles in his hand.
Worried about Yang Kai's safety, Changsheng rushed into the house to check, but when the assassin in front of the door saw his accomplice seriously injured and fell to the ground, he immediately pulled out a dagger from his waist, holding one in each hand, and attacked.
As the saying goes, an inch long is strong, and an inch short is dangerous. The dagger used by this person is only three inches long. He uses a close and fast attack method. He holds it with one hand behind his back, and the other hand holds it upright. He swings and stabs, flying up and down, and the knife Stay close to the point.
The opponent only attacks but does not defend, and desperately rushes to attack. Chang Sheng is unwilling to use the lose-lose style of play, and he will be unable to defeat him in a short period of time.
In terms of attack speed alone, the assassin in front of him was a little slower than the Zhao Wuming he met on the ring during the day. However, Zhao Wuming's grappler used his bare hands to fight the enemy, while this man was holding a sharp blade. This man's moves were vicious and vicious, and Changsheng was unable to do anything to him for a moment.
Just as he was eagerly engaging the assassin, the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground was heard in the room.
Hearing the strange noise in the house, Chang Sheng was relieved. Yang Kai was undoubtedly poisoned, but the fact that he could still move meant that the poison was not deep. No matter what kind of poison the other party used, he was sure to detoxify Yang Kai.
"If you dare to poison and assassinate, don't even think about leaving here alive." Changsheng said loudly. He rarely made a sound during the fight. This time he made a sound just to tell Yang Kai that he was outside the door.
The assassin didn't answer, but just waved the dagger and attacked quickly. Different from the ordinary attacks that competed with each other, this person's attack had no defense at all. It was purely a dog-jumping-over-the-wall, trapped-animal fight.
This person will make a sound to assist when making moves. Like the fallen assassin, this person's voice is also very strange. It has neither the strong masculinity of a man nor the grace and softness of a woman.
This person also has a weird shape. Although his hips are round and plump, his chest is very flat.
After a brief period of confusion, Changsheng suddenly found a similar figure in his mind, Eunuch Liu who had previously appeared on stage in a mask.
Eunuchs, these two assassins are eunuchs!
After a few rounds, the assassin's vigor weakened and his flaws gradually emerged.
Changsheng had the opportunity to severely injure this man, but he was not in a hurry to do it. Instead, he was anxiously thinking about the consequences of killing these two eunuchs.
These two eunuchs were undoubtedly sent by the eunuchs, and the motive for assassinating Yang Kai is not difficult to guess. Yang Kai's Zhoutian Divine Skill can replenish his spiritual energy at critical moments. Yang Kai's existence makes him even more powerful. The eunuchs don't dare to directly To attack him, he chose Yang Kai as his target, aiming to eradicate his wings and weaken his strength.
If these two people are killed, the government will definitely come to investigate. What will be the consequences? As the saying goes, it is easy to dodge open guns but hard to guard against hidden arrows. God knows when the eunuch will send out the next group after killing these two.
Caught alive? No, not even the emperor dared to fall out with the eunuchs directly. If these two eunuchs were arrested, who would dare to interrogate them? How does it end?
After anxiously pondering, Chang Sheng made up his mind, seizing the opponent's flaw and launching three kicks in succession. When the opponent fell to the ground, he quickly stepped forward, knelt down, twisted the assassin's hands, and snatched the dagger from his hand.
The assassin struggled violently, and Changsheng's knees exerted force, making it difficult for him to move.
Changsheng did not restrain the man for a long time. After restraining him completely, he stepped back and threw the two daggers to the assassin with his backhand.
The assassin did not expect that Changsheng would stop and return the dagger midway, and looked up in shock.
"You only have half your life left, and you don't know how to cherish it." Changsheng pointed his finger at the assassin and said, "Take your companions away and don't come back again in the future."
After Changsheng finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the door. After hesitation, the assassin did not step forward to assassinate him. Instead, he picked up the dagger, picked up the fallen assassin, and climbed over the wall to leave.
Chang Sheng broke the door bolt and held his breath, only to see that Yang Kai had fallen beside the table. At this time, the room was filled with poisonous fog, so Chang Sheng took Yang Kai out and inspected the injury from an open space.
There was indeed a poisonous needle stuck in Yang Kai's neck, but after inspection, it was found that it was not a fatal poisonous needle, but a fainting poisonous needle. Yang Kai just fainted due to poisoning and was not seriously injured.
Only then did Chang Sheng realize that these two assassins did not want to kill Yang Kai, but wanted to kidnap him. If they really wanted to kill someone, the front yard where the servants were sitting would not have the smell of drugs. If they really wanted to kill someone, , there is no need for the two of them to stir the door bolt. Wouldn't it be faster to just break the door bolt and enter the door to assassinate them? The reason why the two of them went to so much trouble is that they don't want to leave any clues.
But just because the other party didn't kill him immediately, it doesn't mean that the other party is not hostile. If Yang Kai is really kidnapped, they will definitely kill him, but that will be after they are forced to learn the formula of Zhou Tian Divine Skill.
When the smoke in the room cleared, Chang Sheng carried Yang Kai back to the bed, then activated the Xuanyin Qi, condensed ice on his palms, and placed it on his forehead. When Yang Kai opened his eyes blankly, he took some tea from the table to cool down. Feed and serve. In fact, the Mongolian sweat medicine is easy to cure, and you can wake up by drinking a basin of cold water, but naturally he will not treat Yang Kai like this.
No matter what kind of sweat medicine it is, you will have a splitting headache after waking up. Chang Shou told the whole story in a concise and comprehensive manner, and then got up and went to the backyard. By this time, the temperature was already very low, the trees had fallen leaves, and the flowers and plants were withered, but this did not I found a few dried licorice plants. Although licorice is common, it can detoxify and relieve headaches.
Half an hour later, Yang Kai returned to normal. When Chang Sheng told him in detail about passing by, Yang Kai actually started to meditate and practice Qi. Seeing this, Chang Sheng stopped disturbing him. He got up and went to the front yard to confirm that the servant girl was fine before returning. In the backyard, Yang Kai lived in the room next door.
It was almost the third watch at this time. Changsheng had been very tired during the day and was physically and mentally exhausted. He lay down and fell asleep quickly.
He was woken up by Yang Kai. After waking up, he simply washed his face, changed his clothes and went out with Yang Kai.
All the maids and servants in the front yard had overslept and had just gotten up at this time. The servants were busy cleaning the fallen leaves in the yard, while the maids were busy cooking for Yang Kai.
Seeing Chang Sheng and Yang Kai coming out of the backyard together, everyone was so frightened that they all came forward to apologize.
Changsheng naturally would not blame them, and went out with Yang Kai to the competition venue in front of the palace.
The Zhoutian Divine Skill is quite miraculous. After a night of rest, Yang Kai has completely restored his spiritual energy cultivation, and the same is true for his longevity. Although he still feels a little tired, his spiritual energy has returned to fullness.
The court competition officially started at Chenshi. It was still half an hour before Chenshi. However, the two of them were now in the West City, and the palace was in the East City. It would take a long time to get there, so the two of them did not stop to eat. I bought two sesame seed cakes, one for Yang Kai and one for each other, chewing them while walking.
Chang Sheng lived a hard life in his early years, and Yang Kai was even worse than him. The sesame biscuits had no taste at all, but the two of them ate them with gusto.
Changsheng actually doesn't talk much, but compared with Yang Kai, who is a boring gourd, he is like a talker. He has been encouraging Yang Kai during the journey. Gu Yan is not in the city at this time. If Yang Kai can break out of the siege with Zhoutian Divine Skill, Gu Yan will definitely feel more relieved when he comes back.
Furthermore, yesterday Yang Kai used Zhou Tian Divine Skill to save him from danger and prevent the Ni family's property from being occupied by bad guys with ulterior motives. When Gu Yan learns about this after returning, he will definitely be in a good mood.
The reason why Chang Sheng said this was to alleviate Yang Kai's guilt and self-blame. He wanted to let Yang Kai know that the decision to wake up Gu Yan was the right one, whether it was for Gu Yan himself, the court, or even the people of the world. They are all correct. Just because Yang Kai himself has obtained the secret book of Zhou Tian Magic Technique, he cannot bear the psychological baggage of benefiting himself at the expense of others, feeling guilty and blaming himself.
At this time, the most talked about thing among the people in Chang'an was yesterday's competition to recruit a bride. People's opinions on him were very polarized. Some said that he had won the first prize in a row and was open and honest, while others said that he was greedy for wealth and ruthless. In order to win, he killed many people. , and broke the legs of several people.
The same is true for the impression of the Ni family. Some people lamented the generosity of the Ni family. They not only gave silver to the injured to treat their injuries, but also scattered a large amount of silver beans after the competition to thank everyone who watched. Some people think that the Ni family's move is just to show off their wealth and try to please others.
Listening to everyone's conversation, Changsheng felt very unhappy. He really couldn't figure out why these people thought so bad of him and the Ni family, and pretended to treat a gentleman with a villain's heart.
Realizing that everyone had mixed opinions about him, Chang Sheng began to look for the reason. After pondering for a long time, he finally discovered the problem. The problem actually did not lie with himself, but with the other party. In the eyes of good people, everyone is a good person, and in the eyes of bad people, everyone is a good person. Everyone is seen as a bad person.
In fact, it is not appropriate to say this. To be precise, if you think what you think, you will think that others think the same.
Those bad comments seriously affected Changsheng's mood, and at the same time, he discovered his own shortcomings. After all, he was still young. Although he could analyze the truth and analyze the pros and cons, he did not understand people's hearts well enough.
After yesterday's competition to recruit a bride, Changsheng has now become a man of the hour. Everyone who saw the competition to recruit a bride yesterday will recognize him, and they will inevitably be criticized and criticized along the way.
There was still a quarter of an hour before Chenshi, and the two arrived at the competition square in front of the palace...
