Chapter 498 498 Black Ball(1/2)
The assassin who used strange martial arts to hide in the shadows to commit murders, after taking off the pig face mask, was a woman estimated to be in her fifties.
This aunt is not ugly. She has a thin figure. Although there are some wrinkles on her face, her facial features are very straight. She has a little dark circles under her eyes. She feels like she hasn’t rested. But overall she doesn’t look vicious. She looks like she was struck by lightning.
Miserable, her eyes were tightly closed, her lips were pale, and her hair was not sure whether it was naturally waxy or scorched by lightning.
Jiuniang crossed her arms and looked at the White Dragon King.
The old man was quite embarrassed and stretched out his hand to scratch his head - oh, it turned out to be a girl, he should have known better than to hit her.
Zhan Zhao raised his head and looked into the room.
Duke Jinggong and Duke Ruiyang, who had run in with a cry of fright at the sight of the assassin, now came to the door again and stuck their heads out to take a careful look.
After the two of them saw clearly that it was a woman lying on the ground, they seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then their eyes fell on the pig head hood in Zhan Zhao's hand.
The two looked at each other, and the panic they felt just now finally disappeared, and they both walked out.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw the eye contact and expression changes between the two people.
Obviously, the two people initially thought that the person who attacked them was a pig-faced man, and at that moment they were so scared that they were scared out of their wits. However, after confirming that they were just wearing hoods and not really having pig faces, the two of them...
Not even scared anymore...
Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao - when I rescued them just now, their attitude towards Shadow was also very strange.
Zhan Zhao was curious - what kind of strange method?
Bai Yutang gestured to the shadow cast on the ground - it was true that they were scared, but they were not surprised.
Zhan Zhao understood what Fifth Master meant - it meant that this was not the first time they met, or that it was not the first time they were attacked by a shadow?
The fifth master nodded slightly.
"Ahem."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were looking at each other with "love" in their eyes, when they heard the White Dragon King cough.
The two of them turned around, and the White Dragon King murmured to the woman on the ground - Do you want to save her, even though she is still alive...
Zhan Zhao looked back - Gongsun was not here. Is there any other doctor in the yamen? Should he ask the yamen servant to go to the medical clinic to hire one?
Bai Yutang asked Jinggong and Ruiyanggong who were walking out of the door, "Do you two know this woman?"
The two princes came up to take a look, then shook their heads together and said they had never seen it before.
Zhan Zhao doesn't quite believe it - I've never seen anyone try to kill you? And sneak into Kaifeng Mansion to assassinate you two?
There was a lot of commotion here, which attracted Mr. Bao and the others.
The Eight Kings and the Grand Master had just chatted for a while and then followed Mr. Bao to the garden to appreciate the epiphyllums. Unexpectedly, a thunderbolt came down and blew away the roof, shocking the three adults.
After calculating the direction, the hit happened to be the guest room where the two princes were. The Grand Master and the Eighth Prince dragged Mr. Bao over to see if God had opened his eyes and hacked these two old scumbags.
It was a coincidence that as soon as the three adults walked to the corridor, they happened to meet Tian Zun Yin Hou and the fourth son of Zhao Pu Gongsun.
Tianzun and Yin Hou were sent back by the Demon King to find the Flower of Life. The Demon King didn't care whether they went to the Demon Palace by themselves or tricked the White Dragon King into going there. Anyway, he would see the Flower of Death within three days.
Zhao Pu sent Gongsun and his son back. Gongsun still had classes at the Imperial Academy tomorrow morning, and the fourth son was responsible for helping find flowers for the funeral... Because even if he returned to the Demon Palace, he might not know where the old man was, and he still had to find someone at the critical moment.
The king of the regiment takes action.
When they walked into the corridor and met each other, the eighth prince and the fourth son said in unison...
"Little four!"
"Xiao Bazi!"
The two rushed to each other from a distance, kissed and hugged each other.
Everyone shook their heads silently, hearing this title, they were like brothers.
Tianzun and Yin Hou also saw the lightning when they came back just now. They knew it was the White Dragon King who struck it, but they didn't know who it struck.
Everyone simply went to the guest room courtyard together.
Zhan Zhao heard many people approaching the courtyard gate, turned around and saw Gongsun, and quickly waved to him to come over and save them.
Gongsun ran forward and took a look, what a boy - this lady was struck by lightning! There was smoke coming from the top of her head!
Zhan Zhao told Mr. Bao about the situation just now. Both the Grand Master and Mr. Bao glanced at the two princes - What kind of hatred, this assassin actually entered Kaifeng Mansion to kill you two!
The two princes looked embarrassed.
The eighth prince was holding his little fourth son and staring at the assassin on the ground.
The prince frowned slightly - why does this woman look familiar?
Just as the eight princes were wondering if they had seen this person before, the two princes came up to say hello and salute the prince.
Although the prince looked at them awkwardly, he held out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man and gave them a salute in return.
The two princes also kept praising the little fourth son for being cute. The little fourth son blinked his big eyes and stared at the two of them, as if they were looking at each other, and he didn't know what he was looking at.
Gongsun said that the assassin suffered serious internal injuries and needed to take medicine and rest. He would not be able to wake up for a while. He probably would not be able to move when he woke up. He was not sure whether he could recover well.
After all, he was an assassin. Zhao Pu felt that it was dangerous to put someone in the Yamen guest room, so he asked the Yamen servants and shadow guards to clean up a cell and come out and guard it strictly.
Tianzun and Yin Hou each put their hands on the White Dragon King's shoulders and said that he had beaten a girl so hard.
The Dragon King jumped up and said that he didn’t! The assassin was dressed in black and wore a pig face mask, so it was impossible to tell the difference between male and female!
Tianzun and Yin Hou shook their heads with "You can't do this, we are very worried about you" expressions on their faces, which made Lord Long's face turn red with anxiety.
"Pig face mask?" The Eighth Prince, who was being greeted by the two princes, turned around and asked Zhan Zhao, "What pig face mask?"
Zhan Zhao showed the mask in his hand to the prince.
The fourth son took it, held it up, and looked at it with the eighth prince.
"Hmm..." The Eighth Prince frowned slightly, feeling that the mask looked a bit familiar.
Just as the prince was thinking about it, the two princes suddenly came over to talk to him and asked him about the princess.
The Eighth Prince was a little displeased when he heard this - he thought to himself that you two are still planning on the princess?!
The fourth son put his arm around the Eighth Prince's neck and looked at the angry prince, then at the two princes, then at the mask in his hand and the assassin who was being carried away.
Tuanzi tilted his head, feeling that the two princes seemed to be interrupting each other all the time. Xiaobazi clearly had some reaction when he saw the female assassin and the mask...
As the assassins left, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang heard that Tianzun and Yin Hou behind them seemed to be inciting the White Dragon King to go to the Demon Palace to look for flowers for burial.
Jiuniang looked at Yin Hou from the side and helped, saying that she also felt that it was a bit like the Kung Fu of Burying Flowers, and wondered if they were from the same sect.
The White Dragon King is a little confused. Isn't Burying Flower self-taught? And this woman looks to be only in her forties or fifties... Is there such a big age difference between her classmates?
After a while, Tianzun and Yin Hou called Yaoyao down from the roof of Miaomiao Tower and pushed the White Dragon King up to the White Dragon.
The White Dragon King climbed onto Yaoyao's back in a daze, thinking about going to the Demon Palace?
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both looked at their old man speechlessly - these two are so bad!
Helping to pull the confused and deceived White Dragon King off Yaoyao's back, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang turned back and glared at their masters.
Tianzun and Yin Hou both glared at the two little ones - "Don't make trouble!"
Zhan Zhao asked the White Dragon King to go back and have a rest. If he had caught a cold, he should not worry about it.
"Let me go with Yutang." Zhan Zhao patted Yaoyao's wings.
Fifth Master also nodded.
The fourth boy raised his hand - I'm going too! I want to go to the Magic Palace to play.
Tianzun Yinhou thought it was possible. Anyway, it would be the same no matter who went, and the funeral flower also had a weird temper. Zhan Zhao had a higher success rate than anyone else when he called him.
Zhan Zhao took a leave of absence from Mr. Bao and said he would come back within three days.
Master Bao told them not to worry and to pay attention to safety on the road.
Gongsun went to pack a small baggage for his son. Before the fourth son came down from the Eighth Prince's arms, he covered his ears and muttered a few words.
The Eighth Prince was stunned for a moment, thought about it, seemed to think it made sense, and nodded.
After handing the fourth child to Zhao Pu, the Eighth Prince turned back and glanced at Jingrui and the two princes... They were indeed interrupting him all the time. Could it be that the woman was really someone he knew?
The Eight Kings are a little confused. It’s understandable that the woman looks familiar but can’t remember it. There’s no reason why the pig-faced mask looks familiar but can’t remember where he saw it! It’s so weird...
After a brief preparation, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang got on Yaoyao's back with their fourth son and set off for the Demon Palace.
It had been a while since I had traveled far. Zhan Zhao touched Yaoyao's back and felt that it seemed to have grown up a little.
The fifth master took out the little silk blanket of the fourth child, wrapped the child well, and let him sleep for a while. When he woke up, he went to the magic palace.
Because it was night, Yaoyao didn't fly very high. When they flew over Yuanqi Tower and Yefu, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang lowered their heads and took a look. These two places were relatively hidden, and there were a lot of trees around them.
A very good shielding effect.
The fourth son was not sleepy at all. He lay on the quilt and told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang what Zhao Zhen had just said about the Pig King Clan and the Yuanbao Qishu.
"Book..." Zhan Zhao recalled whether Uncle Zhan had ever mentioned related matters before.
"It's not easy to find books in ancient tombs," said Fifth Master.
"Indeed, at most they are bamboo slips and the like. It is difficult to preserve books if they are buried underground."
