Chapter 41 The Little Assassin Falling From The Sky
Ji Lingxuan didn't realize the danger was approaching until she heard the noisy fighting sounds outside in the room. The shouts and the sounds of hand-to-hand combat were extremely harsh. Even without looking outside, she could guess how tragic the situation outside the house was.
The assassins' thoughts were very simple. There was no one else but Chu Yingyi who could receive such strict protection in the Chu Palace.
Even though the order was given to kill all three people, the other two people were still implicated by Chu Yingyi, and what the higher-ups wanted most was Chu Yingyi's life.
Therefore, as long as Chu Yingyi dies, the other two people will not be enough to rely on, and it will be much easier to handle.
Ji Lingxuan felt a little uneasy and worried after listening to these movements. Thinking of the previous two assassinations, she couldn't help but look up at the roof and murmured unconsciously, "These assassins don't like to take the usual route. They won't go through the roof again this time."
Bar……"
Before she finished speaking, she heard irregular knocking sounds on the roof. This sound lasted for a while, and the roof finally cracked under the load, and the broken rubble and wooden boards fell down, followed by
There was also a figure covered in pitch black.
When Ji Lingxuan finally saw it clearly, he realized that what came with the sound of "dong" was an imageless man in black who spread his body in the shape of a big letter and fell down hard, lying face down on the ground.
.
When Ji Lingxuan's eyes moved to the tool on the man in black's right hand, he finally couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth inappropriately.
How obsessed are these assassins with falling from the sky, that they actually resort to things like hammers to achieve their goals? Is this way of appearing from the roof so attractive?
She originally thought that if she fell from such a high place, she would be disabled even if she didn't die, so she calmly observed the man in black on the ground.
But who would have known that after the man in black fell down, his limbs twitched slightly and then he immediately sat up cross-legged, as if nothing was wrong.
Feelings: Didn't this dear friend fall from the sky, but just took a tumble on the ground?
Ji Lingxuan was stunned by this realization. You must know that the structure of ancient houses is different from modern ones. The roof is triangular. In other words, the highest part of the ancient roof is comparable to a modern building with nearly two floors. Such a fall
It’s okay after you come down??
The man in black put the hammer on his belt and patted the dust off his body. Then he slowly turned his head to look at Ji Lingxuan, with a pair of big round eyes, with a bit of complaint and a bit of grievance, "Your roof
The board is too hard. Why use such a hard board? It took me a lot of effort and took me a long time to break it open. It would really cause trouble for others..."
Judging from the appearance, he should still be a young boy. In addition, his voice is crisp and has a somewhat innocent and childish tone, which is very endearing and makes people unable to dislike him.
After listening to this young man's words, Ji Lingxuan couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth and was speechless.
Before co-authoring someone to build a house, they should first consider whether it would be too difficult for you to build a house? It was originally his fault, but he still complained with an aggrieved look on his face, which was simply enough.
Even though the man in black was not in a hurry to take Ji Lingxuan's life at this moment, Ji Lingxuan still couldn't relax because she didn't dare.
The man in black has no plans to kill her for the time being, but who knows if he will never kill her.
.After all, did she come and smash the roof for no reason just to make him fall sprawled in front of her like this?
However, even though this time should be taken more seriously, Ji Lingxuan still couldn't avoid the doubts in her heart. She couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart, "Well, the assassin had to come in from the roof? Why...?"
"
The previous two times were just that. They just used martial arts to open a big hole in the roof and jumped down naturally. However, this man actually used a hammer to smash the roof open and fell down... This is really puzzling.
Very interesting, what is the allure of this roof? What makes this young man so persistent that he must break it open?
Moreover, wouldn't it be faster to smash the roof and come in through the door at that time? Besides, she doesn't know any martial arts at all. It's so chaotic outside and there are no eyesight of swords. She doesn't dare to run out casually. If it were replaced by those
He was good at martial arts. When he smashed open the roof, not even a ghost could be seen.
"Tch, of course you don't understand. Only big men fall from the sky. How can ordinary people have such momentum? How handsome and domineering." The young man straightened his back, stretched out his hand and patted his chest hard twice, looking proud.
Look.
If this kid hadn't covered his face, there would probably be "I'm awesome" written on his face...
Ji Lingxuan thought of the embarrassing appearance of the young man who fell from the sky just now, and then looked at the hammer he used to smash the roof, and was speechless. How could he be so handsome?
"How is it? How is it? Am I particularly powerful? Did I look particularly handsome just now? Look at your eyes. Is it your first time to see such an unconventional appearance?" The young man in black looked at him with sparkling eyes.
Ji Lingxuan's excitement was very obvious in her tone.
How can ordinary people see this kind of appearance with her face hitting the ground? It's normal for her to look straight, okay? Ji Lingxuan said perfunctorily, "Yeah... This appearance is indeed unconventional. There is probably no other person in the world.
, I have never seen it.”
"Hahaha..." The boy in black immediately laughed happily after hearing Ji Lingxuan's words, and his eyes narrowed into beautiful crescent moons, "You are so knowledgeable. Seeing how knowledgeable you are, I decided not to
It’s your life.”
Ji Lingxuan was stunned after hearing this. How could the man in black forget the mission so easily?
She was about to burst into tears, and then continued to praise the young man in black without any sense of moral integrity. She said all kinds of complimentary words that came to mind, but this young man was actually praised by her like this? Oh, no, he was
The compliment flew away lightly...
At this time, the sound of fighting outside gradually dissipated, and the situation was probably under control.
When Ji Lingxuan asked someone to clean up the room, the guards looked at the big hole in the roof with puzzled faces.
It's strange. An assassin who has the ability to come down from the roof should be very powerful. Ji Lingxuan doesn't know any martial arts and is seriously injured. How on earth did he save his life?
However, this is not what we should be concerned about now. The top priority now is to immediately prepare a new courtyard for Ji Lingxuan to live in.
Although Ji Lingxuan didn't care whether she could see the sky from where she lived, the guards and housekeepers didn't dare to take the risk. They didn't even know if the assassin sneaked back in through the skylight and killed the person.
Only after this time, the number of guards has more than doubled, and even the roofs and walls have not forgotten to place people on guard to patrol.
At the same time the next day, the sound of fighting was heard outside again. At first, when Ji Lingxuan heard the sound of fighting, she couldn't help but look to the roof. Fortunately, the roof was spared this time, which saved her from having to change rooms.
On the third day, the assassin came to the Prince of Chu's Mansion on time to report. After so many assassinations, the palace's guard system became more and more perfect, and the fighting time became shorter and shorter.
Even for the next two days, Ji Lingxuan stayed in the room obediently, and no assassins could come in. She honestly stayed in bed to recuperate every day.
In the past three days, Chu Yingyi had never appeared in front of Ji Lingxuan. At this time, she vaguely realized that something was wrong, and finally couldn't help but ask the housekeeper the next day.
However, she was dismissed by the housekeeper with vague words, saying that because of the assassin's affairs, he had no time to come and see her, so that she could rest in peace.
Of course Ji Lingxuan was suspicious, but she didn't have much to say. She still lay in bed and watched the records of anecdotes every day until the fourth day...
