I don’t know how long it took before I felt that the car seemed to have stopped. A moment later, I heard a "click" sound. Although his eyes were covered, Qin Xiao clearly felt that the wooden board in front of him had been removed, and then he heard

The voice of the male assassin said: "General Qin, you have had a hard time on the road. But I have to ask you to be patient for two days. When you get to the ship, you will suffer less."

Qin Xiao was a little surprised, wondering if he still had to board the ship?

He knew that if he went all the way east and passed through Yingping County, he would directly enter the Liaodong Army. There would be official roads along the way and there would be no need to take the waterway.

Then he thought that he was being held hostage, and the news would soon spread. Long Ruijun would definitely try his best to rescue him. If Tang Rong got the news, he would definitely send people to search for him.

Moreover, the biggest enemy of the Long Rui Army in the Northeast is the Liaodong Army. If they are suddenly held hostage, they will naturally focus on the Liaodong Army as the mastermind. Although there is an official road from Liaoxi to Liaodong, the assassins do not dare to use the official road.

Okay, after all, Long Ruijun will definitely send people to intercept along the way.

This can also explain why the journey was bumpy. The two assassins must have avoided crowded places and went straight to remote roads.

Something was stuffed in his mouth, his mouth was covered, and he couldn't speak. He just made a sound of "Uh-huh".

"I almost forgot." The male assassin smiled and said: "General Qin, you haven't eaten for two days, and you must be weak all over. I guess you woke up and got you some food. Now I will untie you.

But I still have a few words for you, Yanyan has sealed your internal power with medicine, you must not have any other ideas, you will only suffer more when the time comes."

Qin Xiao knew that "Yanyan" should be the female assassin who was good at using medicine. Her name was very soft, but her temperament was not that good.

The male assassin obviously felt that Qin Xiao was not a threat at this time, so he pulled away the cloth that was pressed on Qin Xiao's mouth. Qin Xiao spit out the contents in his mouth. For a moment, he felt unprecedentedly comfortable and took a few big breaths.

He reluctantly sat up, but his vision was still dark, and he didn't say anything. He raised his arms, and without saying a word, the male assassin untied the rope that was holding his wrist.

Qin Xiao then raised his hand and pulled off the black cloth covering his eyes. He closed his eyes for a while to adjust. Then he opened them and found that the surroundings were still dark, but it was already night. Looking around, he realized that he was in a forest.

At this moment, he was sitting in a long wooden box. The box was very narrow and placed on a mule cart. It really looked like a coffin. No wonder he was so crowded lying inside.

There was a fire not far away. Qin Xiao could see clearly that there was a bonfire burning. There was something roasting on the bonfire. The female assassin Yanyan was sitting on a wooden pile and was spreading condiments on the barbecue.

.

"Although you are unable to take action, you should be able to move around." The male assassin jumped out of the car and waved to Qin Xiao: "Come over and eat together." Without saying much, he went and sat down by the campfire. Yanyan didn't even

Glancing over to Qin Xiao's side, he only focused on barbecue.

Qin Xiao knew that the two assassins were definitely not worried that he would run away.

It is reasonable to think about it. These two people should be at the fifth level. The strength of any one of them is not inferior to Qin Xiao, and Qin Xiao has sealed his internal power, which is equivalent to ordinary people. Naturally, there is no possibility of any

Room for resistance.

Although the four northeastern counties and Xiling are thousands of miles apart, they have one thing in common, that is, they are both vast and sparsely populated. If Xiling is mountainous, then the four northeastern counties are covered with forests everywhere.

These two people only took lonely roads and rested in this forest, certainly far away from human beings.

Qin Xiao got off the carriage, his body still quite limp, and walked slowly to the bonfire, but he could see clearly that what was being roasted should be a deer, which was already golden in color, with a layer of appetizing aroma on the surface.

Oily and fragrant.

Looking at it like this, these two people actually carried the oil and salt condiments needed for barbecue with them.

The two assassins each sat on a wooden stake, but there was no place for Qin Xiao to sit. Fortunately, a lot of dry firewood was prepared by the campfire. He took a few and put them away, sat on them, and then looked around.

I saw that both assassins had changed their attire, wearing thick coats and cotton hats, with their ear protection hanging down. Such attires were common among the people in the Northeast during this season. They were ordinary and not eye-catching.

Under the firelight, Yanyan's petite figure was wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket. At first glance, she looked like a teenager, but upon closer inspection, her face was clear and beautiful. Her snow-white oval face was no bigger than a palm, and it even highlighted her sharp mandible.

Pointed, indescribably graceful and delicate.

Her skin is like cream, and there are small pear dimples on both sides of her cheeks, which makes her even more delicate and charming.

She had a pretty baby face, and she looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old. She seemed to be younger than Qin Xiao, but the maturity between her eyebrows made Qin Xiao understand that Yanyan's actual age was probably only a few years older than her.

.

After all, she has a fifth-level cultivation level. If she is really only fifteen or sixteen years old, she can achieve Zhongtian realm at such an age. It is really shocking. She has reached a fourth-level cultivation level under the age of twenty, which is surprising to many people.

He already looked alien in his eyes.

Junior Senior Aunt Mu Yeji is an extremely gifted martial arts prodigy. Even so, it is impossible for her to have a fifth-level cultivation at the age of fifteen or sixteen. The martial arts talent of the female assassin in front of her should not be as good as that of Junior Senior Aunt Mu Yeji.

Qin Xiao even suspected that the assassin named Yanyan was using drugs to stay young.

Qin Xiao deliberately observed whether her face was still disguised, but the skin color on her face was no different from that behind her ears. She knew that at this time, they were not afraid to reveal their true appearance.

Although disguise can change the appearance, it will not be comfortable whether using clay or wearing a human-skin mask.

"No need to look." The male assassin noticed that Qin Xiao was observing and said with a smile: "We are all real, there is no need to continue to pretend."

Qin Xiao then looked at the male assassin and saw that he was in his early thirties and had a very ordinary appearance. He could not be said to be handsome, but he was definitely not ugly. His ordinary appearance had no memorable features and he would definitely be thrown into the crowd.

No one will notice him, and he will be forgotten even if he is not seen for three days.

But the more such a face is, the more suitable it is for disguise.

"How much money can you get if you take me back?" Qin Xiao asked, squinting at the male assassin.

Although these two people are not good people, their character is not too bad. At least after he fell asleep, they did not search for him. After Qin Xiao got up from the wooden box just now, he touched the personal clothes in his arms.

Everything is there.

Yanyan concentrated on the barbecue as if there was no one else around.

"How much money do you think you are worth?" the male assassin asked.

Qin Xiao sighed: "It should be expensive. In fact, I am very curious. Wouldn't it be more convenient for you two to kill me directly and carry my head back? Now I have to hide here and there, so I can only choose these birds.

Walking where you poop is not only troublesome, but also wastes time."

"We are not in a hurry." The male assassin shook his head and smiled: "Bringing him back alive is more useful than dead."

Qin Xiao said: "How do you say this?"

"General Qin, we don't need to discuss these issues." The male assassin said seriously: "Just follow us in a down-to-earth manner. As long as you obey, we will definitely take care of you as a distinguished guest along the way, and you will have no worries about food and drink."

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "I am already a caged bird, so why do you need to hide it? I know where you are coming from, and I also know why you want me to live."

"Oh?" the male assassin said with interest, "How do you say that?"

"Does that person want to use me to pay homage to someone?" Qin Xiao said with a faint smile: "He hates me so much that he wants to kill me with his own hands to relieve his hatred?"

Yanyan has been turning the barbecue, and the skin of the deer meat is golden and oily, and the aroma is overflowing. At this time, she suddenly said indifferently: "The hatred of killing a son, of course, the hatred is as deep as the sea."

After hearing this, Qin Xiao finally confirmed that these two people were indeed sent by Wang Xingchao.

It seems that Wang Xingchao really believed that Wang Dongjun died in his own hands, and his revenge for killing his son was irreconcilable, so it was reasonable for him to send an assassin.

"What evidence does he have to prove that I killed his son?" Qin Xiao, of course, would not admit it and said calmly.

The male assassin sighed: "General Qin, are you pretending to be confused? Everyone in the world knows that you killed his son in full view of everyone, what more evidence do you need?"

"In full view?" Qin Xiao was even more surprised. When he wanted to assassinate Wang Dongjun, no one else saw him except the girl from the Lu tribe who was bullied by Wang Dongjun. Where did this public view come from?

Yanyan finally glanced at Qin Xiao and said: "Do you dare to do it or not? You killed him in front of countless people, why do you deny it? I heard that the people in the Tang Dynasty knew that you killed the prince of Bohai Kingdom, why did you still deny it?

Everyone is praising you as the great hero of the Tang Dynasty...!" At this point, he showed contempt and said coldly: "Now that it has happened, you don't dare to admit it anymore?"

Qin Xiao's body was already shaken violently, and he said in shock: "You...are you from Bohai?"

Compared with the Xile people of the Modong tribes, the faces of the Bohai people are more similar to those of the Tang people. The noses of the Xile people are taller and straighter than those of the Tang people, and their bodies are generally thicker. However, as long as the Bohai people speak without mentioning Bohai

His accent makes it difficult for ordinary people to identify his origins from his appearance.

The two assassins had a strong northeastern accent and spoke clearly in Tang Dynasty colloquial language. Qin Xiao had always thought that these two men were sent by the Liaodong Army, but he never expected that they were actually assassins from the Bohai Kingdom.

When Yanyan talked about "the revenge of killing a son", Qin Xiao's first reaction was to think of Wang Dongjun and not Yuan Gai Wushuang at all. But now that he knew that the two were assassins from Bohai, he remembered that Bohai Moli

Zhiyuan Gaijian's beloved son also died in his own hands.

Although he was regarded as a thorn in the flesh by the Liaodong Army when he led the Long Rui Army out of the border, such news must have spread to the Bohai Sea. Naturally, Yuan Gaijian also knew that the enemy who killed his son was in the northeast, and sent assassins here.

, which also makes sense.
