Xiyan sat down in front of the window, resting her arms on the table, holding her chin in her hands, staring at the dark night outside, listening to the sound of rain hitting the leaves in a daze.
The little palace maid asked: "Are you hungry, Princess? Do you want some midnight snacks from the kitchen?"
"No, Cailan, go and get me a cup of tea."
The little palace maid nodded, and after a while she made tea and brought it over: "Your Highness, please have some tea!"
Xiyan picked up the teacup and took a sip to her lips, then said softly: "Good tea, Cailan. Is this tea produced in Xichuan a cloud?"
The little palace maid Cailan laughed, with two shallow pear dimples appearing on her cheeks, looking extremely cute: "The princess is really well-informed, indeed, she is so rewarded by the Queen Mother today."
Xiyan smelled the tea again, her expression was a little intoxicated, her beautiful eyes twinkled and she said, "I really want to go there and see it!"
"Hasn't the princess been to Xichuan?"
Xiyan shook her head: "I've never been there!"
Cai Lan said: "I heard that the mountains and clear waters over there are very beautiful."
Xi Yan said: "It should be so..." Her delicate body shook a little: "I'm a little dizzy."
Cailan said: "Princess, you are too tired. I will help you go to bed to rest."
"Okay!" Xi Yan stood up, handed her hand to Cailan, and took a step, but she obviously staggered. Fortunately, Cailan held her, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground.
Cailan helped her sit down by the bed, and Xi Yan said: "I...why am I dizzy and my chest feels tight...Cailan...I...could I be poisoned..."
A cold smile appeared on Cailan's cute little face, and she said softly: "How could it be? Princess, you should have a good rest."
Xiyan covered her throat: "...you...what did you put in the tea..."
Cailan sighed softly and said: "Your Highness, you don't have to be afraid. In fact, there is nothing easier than death in this world. Just think of it as sleeping. Once you sleep, you don't have to be afraid of anything..."
There was an inexplicable look of fear on Xi Yan's face: "You... you... why do you want to hurt me?"
Cailan said: "You don't have to blame me. The only blame is your own bad fate." She brushed her right hand across her face, and her true appearance appeared in front of Xi Yan. She should be thirty years old.
Although it was well maintained, the mature charm revealed was completely different from the innocence of the little girl. She said softly: "It is a blessing that you can die at the hands of my Gu Sanniang."
Xiyan nodded, but her originally frightened eyes turned murderous. Her already shaky body suddenly sat up straight, her beautiful eyes looked at Gu Sanniang calmly and said: "You think that just a beauty with dead bones can kill me?"
Life? Can’t I smell it?”
Gu Sanniang never imagined that such a change would happen. She was so shocked that she stayed there. She wanted to speak, but she felt uncomfortable in her throat and couldn't make a sound. Something seemed to be moving on her hands. She lowered her head.
Looking over, she saw two colorful centipedes squirming slowly on her palms. There was also a feeling of insects crawling behind her ears and in front of her neck. Gu Sanniang felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and she froze there, so scared that she could not move.
I didn't even dare to breathe.
Xiyan sighed and said: "No matter how a person changes her appearance, her eyes cannot change. Although you try your best to pretend to be innocent, I can still see the vicissitudes of life and the city from the depths of your eyes.
What's more, your disguise skills are not very good to begin with. You think you can hide from the world by wearing a human skin mask? Gu Sanniang? You sound like a somewhat famous person. I really don't know how the old monster Kitazawa trained you guys.
Pussy disciple."
Gu Sanniang couldn't speak, and she didn't dare to move her body for fear that poisonous insects would bite her if she was disturbed. There was a prayer in her eyes.
Xi Yan said: "I know you won't tell me even if I ask you, so I'd better save myself the trouble." With a wave of his right hand, a white light shot towards Gu Sanniang's throat. But a white snake shot out from her cuff,
One bite hit Gu Sanniang's throat.
Gu Sanniang fell down without saying a word. Her eyes were wide open and she was obviously unwilling to rest in death. She thought she had succeeded. However, she never expected that Princess Anping would see through her treacherous plan.
Xi Yan looked at Gu Sanniang's body and shook her head. She found the human skin mask from her body and put away the poisonous insect. Then she took off Gu Sanniang's dress and put the human skin mask on her face.
, looked at the bronze mirror carefully, and used her internal strength to shrink the bones and muscles of her body. Now she looks similar to the little palace maid Cailan. With the human skin mask, outsiders should not be able to tell.
flaw.
After everything was ready, Xi Yan picked up the lantern and walked slowly to the door, opened the door and walked out.
After walking a few steps, she saw someone walking in despite the rain. Xiyan stopped and looked at the figure quietly in the rain. That person was Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan walked into the corridor, shook the rain off her body, and winked at Xi Yan.
Xi Yan secretly resented that Yang Xuan seemed to be in the same group as Gu Sanniang.
When Yang Xuan saw that Xi Yan had no reaction, she took another step forward and lowered her voice: "How?"
Xiyan said nothing and nodded.
Yang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, two figures emerged from the fountain in front of the rockery. One was tall and thin, and the other was short and fat. They must have been lurking in the pool for some time. They jumped out of the fountain one after another. The short, fat, bald man was tall and tall.
He stepped in front of the two of them, clasped his fists, and said to Xiyan: "Junior sister, where is the body?" This person was none other than Gu Sanniang's fifth senior brother, the poisonous monk Li Yishui.
Xi Yan was worried that her voice would reveal her true nature, so she looked into the room.
Li Yishui said to the tall and thin man: "Third Senior Brother, hurry up! Get her body into the waterway." The person he called Third Senior Brother was named Peng Yijiang.
Xiyan was slightly startled when she heard this. Could it be that there is a waterway connecting the Chen Palace to the outside world? No wonder these people could come here without anyone noticing. Compared with these two people, she hated Yang Xuan even more for eating him inside and outside.
, collude with foreign enemies to betray themselves.
Peng Yijiang's eyes glanced at Xiyan's face, then landed on her neck, paused briefly and said, "Junior sister, thank you for your hard work."
Xi Yan smiled.
Yang Xuan urged: "If you have anything to say, talk about it later. Don't waste the opportunity."
Peng Yijiang said: "Junior sister, please lead the way."
Xi Yan walked forward, looking at her back. Peng Yijiang's eyes showed cold murderous intent. Suddenly he raised his right hand, and the black syringe hidden in his sleeve was exposed. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! There is no poisonous needle at all.
It shot towards Xi Yan's back heart with ominous signs.
Li Yishui obviously did not expect that Peng Yijiang would take action against his junior sister, and exclaimed: "Senior brother..." Unfortunately, his words could not match the speed of Peng Yijiang's attack. All the steel needles hit Xiyan's back, and Xiyan
He fell to the ground silently.
Yang Xuan was also surprised, and Li Yishui said in astonishment: "Brother, she is the seventh sister!"
Peng Yijiang's face was covered with a layer of frost: "I will not admit my mistake!" He and Gu Sanniang had an affair for a long time. This matter had been going on underground, and even the people in the door didn't know about it. Before that, Gu Sanniang
The two of them had an agreement when they sneaked into Qichen Palace, and there would be a secret code after meeting. Of course, Xiyan didn't know about the agreement between the two. Although she had perfected her appearance and figure, she still couldn't help but be exposed in front of Peng Yijiang. Peng Yijiang
He was an insidious person. Even if he saw through it at the time, he did not expose it immediately. Instead, he waited for Xiyan to lead the way and suddenly killed him.
Peng Yijiang did not immediately step forward to check, but waved his hand. Two blood-red vampire bats flew out of his sleeves, flew to Xiyan's side, hovered behind her neck, and did not launch an attack.
, this is the poisonous pet bloodthirsty sky bat raised by Peng Yijiang. This poison likes to eat human blood, but never eats dead animals. Peng Yijiang first released the bloodthirsty sky bat out of caution. If Xiyan is not dead, these two poisonous pets
He would definitely rush up and bite the blood vessels in her neck. If she died, the bloodthirsty sky bat would not even touch her.
After this test, Peng Yijiang concluded that Xi Yan would definitely die. A sinister sneer appeared on the corner of his lips. He slowly came to Xi Yan, turned her body over, and reached out to remove the mask on her face. His fingers just touched Xi Yan.
On the other hand, Xi Yan opened her eyes, opened her lips slightly, and puffed out a stream of green light, and the poisonous needle hidden in her mouth shot into Peng Yijiang's eyes. With Peng Yijiang's martial arts, it was not difficult to avoid the poisonous needle, but
He was too close to Xi Yan, and he had no doubt about the perception of the Bloodthirsty Sky Bat. He believed that Xi Yan would die, so he took no precautions. However, he did not expect that Xi Yan was hit by the poisonous needle first, and then escaped from the Bloodthirsty Sky Bat.
Inspection of bats.
Peng Yijiang's eyes were in sharp pain, he screamed, and everything turned black in an instant. His body immediately retreated backwards. Under such circumstances, Peng Yijiang's response speed was not bad. Only by retreating could he have a chance of survival. Peng Yijiang
As he retreated, he waved his hands and the two bloodthirsty sky bats let out a shrill scream and flew towards Xi Yan.
Xi Yan's body rushed forward like a spiritual snake, her toes pointed to the ground, her delicate body almost parallel to the ground and flying at a height of about a foot. Each of her hands ejected a projectile, which exploded in the void. In an instant,
The corridor was already filled with smoke.
The two blood-red bloodthirsty sky bats were not blocked by the smoke. They vibrated a pair of fleshy wings, opened their fangs and shot towards Xiyan like lightning.
Xi Yan's delicate body twisted and floated into the courtyard. The night rain fell miserably on her body. Xi Yan's beautiful eyes glowed with a faint blue light. She stared at the pair of bloodthirsty bats flying towards her. Her hands shook.
Two green rays of light shot into the air respectively, intending to kill the bloodthirsty sky bat in the void.
The bloodthirsty sky bats are poisonous pets that Peng Yijiang has raised for many years. He has spent a lot of energy on these poisonous pets. He has trained them since they were cubs, and in order to enhance their toxicity and lethality, he has found a lot of
Poison feeds them. If there are two sects in the world that are best at using poisons, one is the Melancholy Sect in the north, and the other is the Five Immortals Sect in the south. Although these two sects have no contact with each other, they do not have any hatred towards each other.
