Chapter 141 [Assassination]
The melodious sound of the dingdong piano is like a clear spring falling, and the notes are like broken jade beads. Just listening to the sound of the piano is enough to make people intoxicated.
The wide chair was covered with a thick and soft bear skin. A tall and handsome young man leaned in the chair, stepped on the bear's head, supported the armrest of the chair with one hand, held his cheeks, half-squinted his eyes, and quietly stared at the person playing the piano in the room.
Not far away from him, after the curtain was worn, the curtain was like a veil, with a faint golden edge, and the lines strung between the beads were clearly pure gold!
Behind the curtain, a beautiful figure was sitting there, with a harp in front of him, ten slender fingers slowly plucking, the strings trembled, and the wonderful sound of the piano jumped out like magic.
The woman faced the curtain sideways, her long hair was dripping off and softly attached to her side and back. The hair was actually a rare light purple color! Plus the long black gauze dress, just such a side shadow makes people feel a bit beautiful.
The face on the side has a slightly pointed chin, but the outline of the cheeks is round and full, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the skin is as beautiful as jade. Such a face should have been charming and charming, but it seems that there is a little coldness between the eyebrows. If you look closely, the corners of your eyes will be slightly raised, which makes this face add a bit of wildness.
What is even more amazing is that when you look at this face that was already amazingly beautiful, the eyes were actually light purple, and only the pupils jumped out of a little blackness.
Below the black veil is a slender figure, thin shoulders, a full chest from the side, and a waist that is full and full. What is even more attractive is the outline of the plump and straight legs under the black veil, and the snow-white barefoot stepping on a soft fox fur.
The tall young man was a little confused when he heard this, and suddenly stood up subconsciously. His tall body was tall but not bloated at all. He strode towards the curtain and slowly stretched out his hand to lift it open.
The woman playing the piano inside had no response, but continued to play the piano more and more like a demonic sound. A trace of obsession flashed through the tall young man's eyes. A trace of enthusiasm gradually emerged on his already feminine face...
Finally, his steps approached one by one. He stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to touch the woman playing the piano... Just when his fingertips were almost touching the woman's cheek...
"bite!"
The last note of the piano came to an abrupt end!
As if the magic power was interrupted, the young man suddenly shook his body and his face returned to a clear light. Seeing that he had reached out to touch the other person's cheek, he couldn't help but open his mouth and smiled embarrassedly.
"Last time."
The woman didn't look up, but just looked at the strings lightly, but the sound was as cold as cold jade: "Your Highness, this is the last time. If there is another time, I promise that your hand will not be on your wrist."
When she said this, the content of the words was full of silence, but the tone was cold, as if she was not saying such a ruthless warning, but with a kind of indifference as if she was nothing.
The smile on the man's face became more and more embarrassed, and he withdrew his hand behind him: "Harp...ah, I've been thinking about the sound of your harp for a long time. You played...it really looks like her."
The woman finally turned her head and looked at the man head-on. After turning her face, it was surprising that the beautiful face that should have turned all living beings was only half!
Half of the cheek was covered with an iron surface, and the iron surface went down along the line between the eyebrows and nose, firmly covering half of the cheek, revealing only the eyes!
Such a beautiful face looks extremely strange under half of the iron face.
This woman is of course Via.
"His Highness Ke Kelan, I don't care what you said. What I said...but please remember it best."
Via's eyes were fluctuating, she gently let go of the strings and put her hands in her sleeves.
Ke Kelan smiled, the awkward look on his face faded, as if he was relaxed: "Miss Via... seems to be not an attitude towards his allies."
"I don't care about this." Via said coldly: "You are just my target of protection. You will not die within a hundred days. As for anything else, if you break your hands and feet, I don't care."
Ke Kelan laughed, turned around and strode back to his chair, leaned on it, and looked at Via, seemingly dissatisfied: "I have always been very surprised. Your teacher - are all his disciples all weirdos like you? I heard that the crown prince in your empire who likes male style is also your teacher's apprentice?"
Via slowly walked over and quietly knelt on a piece of felt not far from Ke Kelan. Her eyelids drooped, and she said coldly: "Correction of your words... I am not from the Byzantine Empire, so please don't use words like 'your empire'."
Ke Kelan raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Then what country are you from? Lantis? Or is it a free-spirited person?"
Via still looked indifferent: "Does people have to belong to a country?"
Ke Kelan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "Okay, I won't ask."
Then he frowned and said, "Your teacher...ah, why did he send someone like you? Although you are a woman who is beautiful, your temperament is too boring. When you look at you, it looks quite pleasing to the eye at the beginning, but over time, the breath on your body can freeze people."
"I'm frozen and always being assassinated."
Via closed her eyes.
Ke Kelan is speechless.
Because, he could not refute this woman.
In fact, in the past three days, if it weren't for the protection of the woman in front of him, he had almost died at least three times!
The first time, when he was riding a horse, he was dissuaded by this woman when he was riding. Later, he found that a pointed needle, a finger-long needle hidden under the saddle! It was hidden under the saddle. It was not visible without carefulness, but if it was ridden, it would be stabbed into the thigh. Later, after checking, the pointed needle was wiped with a strange poison. According to the witch doctor around him, that kind of poison could be released even a dragon!
The second time, the woman checked his bedroom and pointed to the vase in the bedroom and asked: Who arranged it? It was a kind of flowers that is rare in normal times, but it is said that the fragrance of flowers is clear and loved by many Odin noble women. However, this kind of flowers are rare, so it is quite expensive. Originally, the servant decorations, Ke Kelan did not care about such small things. But as a result, Via's attitude as if facing a great enemy made Ke Kelan understand that something was wrong.
Later Via explained: It turned out that Ke Kelan had a habit of drinking a wine every day, and a spice was added to this wine for preservation. Many people know this habit.
But the flowers in the room are decorated with problems!
Originally, this flower seemed to have no problem or any poison. But once the spice of the wine that Ke Kelan drank would neutralize with the fragrance of this flower, it would produce a strange toxin. This toxin would not see any signs in the short term and would slowly erode the human body. First, it would make people lazy, then it would become weak and weak, but when it accumulates to a certain extent, it would suddenly fall ill and eventually vomit blood and die of death!
Via also explained: Such poisoning methods must be done by experts who are proficient in medicine.
Ke Kelan started to be skeptical, but after investigation, he finally found that the personal maid in charge of the decoration of his room was indeed a spy sent by another prince Odin who was hostile to him!
The third time was just last night, a newly-collected dancer named Ke Kelan. When he was performing a dance, Via next to him suddenly suddenly rose up, pulled out a dagger from his waist and jumped over, and pierced the beautiful dancer with a sword on the spot!
Ke Kelan was shocked at that time, and Via returned to the action without saying a word, quietly picked up a scarf and wiped the blood on the dagger.
Ke Kelan asked the reason, and Via only replied lightly: "That woman's nails."
Later, after Ke Kelan asked someone to check it carefully, he found that the nails on the index finger of the dancer's left hand had been deliberately polished a little thinner, as sharp as a blade, and a strange poison was applied to the gaps in the nails! Once the thin nails were used to cut the skin, even if there was a little oily skin, the poison could penetrate.
This is a chronic poison that is unaware of it within ten days. After ten days, the toxicity has spread throughout the body! It is completely helpless! Then the skin will start to itch, and after fifteen days, the whole body will ulcerate and die of death!!
After Ke Kelan found out, even though he was already scheming, he couldn't help but change his color.
That dancer was originally going to serve her bed that night! If there was no Via, she would be untied at night and face her naked. She was in a state of great emotion and would stroke her nails gently on her body, and she would definitely not notice it! At that time, she would be dead!
With these three times, Ke Kelan was finally completely convinced by this cold beauty.
He originally disagreed with the mysterious ally in Byzantium this time, and he sent someone to protect him. He was a little dissatisfied with his own skills and was considered a top-notch strong man. Why was he afraid of assassination?
And three times, he was convinced!
Afterwards, Ke Kelan couldn't help asking Via: "How many ways do you know to assassinate people?"
Via thought for a moment: "I have seen all the known assassination cases on the mainland for the past three hundred years. To sum it up, there are completely different techniques, there are a total of 114."
"Then how many kinds do you know?"
“One hundred and fourteen kinds.”
Ke Kelan sighed: "I can train a disciple like you, Kavishil, the wisest Byzantine, and he doesn't know how amazing people are."
Kavihill was sitting there with a leisurely look, his wise and gentle eyes staring quietly into the distance.
This is a long street, a hotel facing the street, and Kavishill sits at the window on the second floor.
And where his eyes were looking at was on the street, Xia Ya was walking by with a leisurely look on her face.
Kavishil seemed to sigh softly and said to himself: "Is it really appropriate to meet him so soon..."
