Don’t Show the Son

   Chapter 117 Trap

   Hearing this voice, Lin Xiucai put down his guard and said, "It's Miss Ake, I was hungry just now, so I went out to eat something."

  Chen Ke didn't ask any more. Lin Xiu turned on the lamp and looked at her, but her expression changed slightly and asked, "Are you injured?"

   By the light, Lin Xiu found that her face was very pale, and one arm was bleeding.

  Chen Ke said: "I went to assassinate Huang Tao, but I failed."

  Lin Xiu asked in amazement: "Isn't there any way to assassinate him with the ability to hide?"

Chen Ke glanced at him and said: "Hiding is not completely gone, even if the movement is light, there will be footsteps, and when moving, it will also bring a slight wind movement, ordinary people can't detect this, but they can't escape. The perception of the strong."

  Lin Xiu understood this and said, "I'll help you find the medicine."

  Although the injury she suffered can be healed just by letting Lin Xiu touch it for a while, but after all, I have only met her twice, and there are some secrets that cannot be easily exposed.

   And the injury she suffered was only a skin injury, and ordinary wound medicine was enough.

  Lin Xiu took out the wound medicine and found another clean white cloth. Chen Ke tore off the sleeve of his left arm, exposing the injured arm.

   "hiss..."

  Lin Xiu gasped subconsciously when she looked at her arm.

What kind of arm is this? There are more than a dozen scars on the white and tender skin, some are old, some are new, and the scars have not fallen off. Blood…

   This is not an arm a woman would have at all.

  Chen Ke saw Lin Xiu's shock and said blankly, "It's normal to be in our line of work."

  Lin Xiu calmed down, took out a porcelain bottle, and said, "It might hurt a little bit, please bear with it."

   This bottle is a good medicine for wounds, which was given by the imperial concubine. He said that Lin Xiu was always injured. In case Shuangshuang girls were not there one day, they would use them.

   He sprinkled the powder on the wound on Ake's arm, her expression did not change, but the other hand was tightly clenched.

  Lin Xiu helped her wrap the gauze again, and then said, "You know that there is a strong person protecting him, why are you still going?"

  Chen Ke said lightly: "If he lives one more day, one more innocent woman may be victimized. It's better to kill him earlier."

   She is more jealous than Lin Xiu imagined.

  Lin Xiu said: "You are injured, don't leave tonight, sleep here all night, you sleep on the bed, I sleep on the ground."

  Chen Ke didn't refuse, just looked at Lin Xiu with an inexplicable look, and said, "Your family is also a powerful person, but you are different from those children of the powerful."

  Lin Xiu said: "My family has long since fallen, and it used to be similar to ordinary people."

Chen Ke continued: "After you killed that person, I have been following you. I saw you let the official help the old man, and I saw you stand up to protect the girl. It's not easy to be fooled by beauty..."

  Lin Xiu was a little embarrassed by her praise, so she had to say: "But do good things, don't ask about the future, thank you for the praise..."

   Judging from her performance, it seemed that she was just following Lin Xiu outside during the day, and did not know that he ran out to practice secretly at night, which made Lin Xiu a little relieved.

  Chen Ke looked at him and said, "If all wicked people think like you, then there is no need for Tiandao Alliance to exist..."

   took in the injured female assassin and slept in the room for one night. When Lin Xiu woke up the next day, she was gone.

   The quilt at the head of the bed was neatly folded, and there was still a faint scent on it.

   She really acts like a heroine. Although Lin Xiu can't join the Tiandao Alliance and kill wicked people all over the world with her, he will always be her safe haven.

   When Lin Xiu went out today, he found something.

  Ake's wanted portrait has been posted all over the streets of the capital.

   Last night, the second son of Huang Guogong's family was assassinated, which completely angered the court. Early in the morning, wanted notices were posted all over the city, vowing to arrest her.

   In this way, she must remain hidden at all times, and once she shows up, she will definitely be discovered.

   With Lin Xiu's understanding of this ability, it is very expensive to enter the invisible state, and she cannot be invisible all the time. As a result, it becomes very difficult for her to move in the capital.

   Those people in the top dignitaries are really not so easy to move.

  Lin Xiu has never seen such a large-scale arrest of an assassin by the imperial court.

   This made him a little worried, she should never be caught.

   This kind of big wanted in the whole city, the Qing Li Division will definitely get the news, Lin Xiu did not go to the Yishu Institute, but first came to the Qing Li Division to inquire about the situation.

   Early in the morning, it seemed that the Qing Li Division had received a murder case.

   A corpse covered by a white cloth was placed in the courtyard of the Qing Li Si.

   It is said that the son of a certain second-class uncle's house beat a commoner to death in the street, but the second-class uncle used his connections to let the Qing officials release his son.

  Lin Xiu thought it was a real murder, until he saw the corpse moving under the white cloth.

   He looked at Liu Qingfeng beside him and asked, "What's going on?"

Liu Qingfeng said: "In order to catch the female assassin, the imperial court deliberately performed a play. They released news throughout the city to let the female assassin hear. If you assassinate that second-class uncle's son, I'm afraid you will be unable to escape."

  Lin Xiu's complexion changed slightly: "Who thought of such a sinister idea?"

   Seeing a lot of eyes looking at him, Lin Xiucai said: "This idea...it's really good, now, the female assassin shouldn't be able to run away. She killed Zheng Jian, and she almost put the blame on me..."

   Lin Xiu was a little anxious when she walked out of the Qing Li Division.

   In order to catch Miss Ake, the court actually fished and enforced the law.

   She doesn't know the inside story, if she acts rashly, I'm afraid there will be no return...

   And he, there is no way to remind her.

  ...

   Night, Chengyang Bo Mansion.

   Count Chengyang's title is not high, he can only be regarded as a noble and powerful person. In the past year and a half, no one mentioned it. Today, the name of Count Chengyang is mentioned more than once in the mouths of the common people.

   The son of a second-class uncle, who beat the common people to death in the street, was able to escape the punishment of the law, which is enough to see how great the privileges of these dignitaries are.

   Every year, I don’t know how many innocent women are ruined by them, and I don’t know how many people are killed by their hands in vain. Just because of their status as powerful people, they can get away with impunity and do whatever they want.

   The rich and powerful oppress the common people, and the government covers it up.

  The common people anger the powerful, and they will be injured in the light of things, and dead in the serious, although this has been the case since ancient times, but who does not desire justice in their hearts?

   In this regard, the people are powerless, and can only spit secretly when they pass by the gate of Chengyang Uncle Mansion before leaving.

   It was late at night, and there were not many people on this street.

   There was only one beggar, leaning on the wall opposite the Chengyang Uncle Mansion, and in front of him was a bowl with half a frozen hard steamed bun.

  This winter is surprisingly cold, and it is difficult for such a homeless beggar to hear the New Year's bell.

   It is not uncommon for several beggars to freeze to death in Kyoto City every winter.

  After the watchman knocked on the clapper of the fourth watch, the entire royal capital began to quiet down.

   At this time, it is when people are asleep, and generally no one will appear on the street except for robbers and thieves.

  The beggar didn't know whether he fell asleep or was frozen to death. He leaned against the wall and hadn't moved for a long time.

   At this moment, all sounds were silent, and suddenly there was a soft sound in Uncle Chengyang's mansion.

   seems to be the sound of footsteps landing.

   But in the huge yard, there was not even a single figure.

   After a while, the door of a wing in the mansion slowly opened and closed silently.

   The room was quiet for a moment, but in the next moment, there was a sudden shout of anger.

   "You really came!"

boom!

   The door of the room burst open, and sawdust flew. At the same time, from the various wing rooms of Chengyang Uncle Mansion, a dozen figures suddenly broke out, and several torches were lit, and the fire reflected the courtyard like daylight.

   A few people held torches and stood at the four corners of the courtyard, while the others used wooden basins to sprinkle flour into the courtyard. Soon, the courtyard was covered with a layer of snow white.

   Several footprints appeared on the ground immediately.

   A middle-aged man held a knife in one hand and swung the knife in the air. There was a muffled groan in the air, and a little blood was sprinkled on the snow-white ground.

   True qi was released, this middle-aged man turned out to be an earth-level warrior.

   "Let's see where you escape this time!"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly and approached with a knife. Although there was not a single figure in the courtyard, the footprints on the ground were very clear. The long knife in his hand fluttered, and the sharp knife qi waved out one after another, and the ground was bursting with blood from time to time. flowers.

  In the end, a footprint with bloodstains disappeared under the courtyard wall.

   The middle-aged man looked in the direction of the courtyard wall and said coldly, "You can't run away."

   He jumped up and went directly over the zhang Xu-high courtyard wall to the street outside.

   On the street, a black-clothed woman showed her figure, her body was bleeding from many wounds, and she was staggering down the street at the moment.

  The middle-aged man followed behind her in a hurry, and mocked: "Hidden, why don't you hide?"

   As soon as his voice fell, the woman in black fell to a wall. She was seriously injured and her Yuan strength was exhausted. She no longer had the strength to stand.

   At the place where she fell, there was a figure that seemed to be a beggar who had been frozen to death. The distance between the two was less than three feet.

   The middle-aged man looked at the woman in black, and there was a touch of eagerness in his eyes.

   One hundred thousand taels of silver, even for him, was an unimaginable sum of money.

   This amount of money is enough for him to buy a three-entry mansion in the center of Dongcheng, where an inch of land is expensive. It is his dream mansion.

   Now, the opportunity to realize your dreams is just around the corner.

   He stepped forward, intending to capture the long-wanted female assassin in the court.

   But at this moment, a mutation arose.

   The female assassin was not far from her side, like an old beggar who had been frozen to death, suddenly burst into flames, a Gulu rolled to the side of the female assassin, picked her up, and flew directly into the sky.

   The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly widened: "And accomplices!"
