Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 1212: A just cause (Part 1) [asking for monthly votes]

His eyes had clearly seen that the killer's neck was in a bag, but the touch of his fingertips touched nothingness. Is this a failure?

Shen Tang was shocked.

Even if the incarnation of Wuyou is far less powerful than the original figure, he can still easily deal with ordinary mid-to-high-level brave warriors. No matter how special the killer's methods are, the gap between their realms and combat experience lies here.

But she failed.

Little did she know that the killer was more shocked than she was.

Not to mention that his intention as a warrior was entirely for assassination, the way he coaxed the target just now did not show any flaws, and the timing of his attack was just right. The target suddenly became alert only because his murderous intention was revealed! He has the absolute upper hand and has the advantage of sneak attacks. He can usually make people see the King of Hell in three or two rounds. How many so-called masters died in his hands in a daze? The person in front of me is an exception.

Not only did he do his best with bare feet and frontal trampling, but it also gave his hidden body the illusion of a chill on his neck!

He calmed down secretly.

"Of course he is the one who wants your life!"

The voice is weird, and it is difficult to distinguish between male and female or age.

Suddenly turned into a wisp of strange green smoke, like a ghost clinging to the blind spot of Shen Tang's sight. His moves were weird and unpredictable, his limbs could be flexibly twisted into any terrifying and terrifying shape, and he could do it from any inhuman angle that was unimaginable by common sense. attack.

"What the hell are you?" Although Shen Tang was able to detect tricks, she couldn't get rid of the killer and couldn't kill anyone. She had to concentrate to avoid being attacked by the other party, which made her feel uncomfortable all over.

The enemies she has come into contact with on the battlefield in the past few years are either Gong Xiqiu, who is open-minded and able to defeat all methods with one force, using her absolute strength to suppress the enemy, or Yun Ce, a skilled person who uses straightforward methods to subdue the enemy. , it is rare to encounter a killer. After struggling for more than twenty moves, her patience was completely exhausted.

The blade suddenly turned and stabbed backwards.

The killer almost taunted Shen Tang in his ear.

"It's no use!"

Shen Tang was not affected at all.

The knife pierced the killer's palm impartially and tore half of it open.

The palm of his hand fell to the ground, but the killer's wound splattered with blood unexpectedly. Instead, it melted under the sunlight and turned into a wisp of dark black smoke: "Idiot, all your efforts are in vain, what can you do to me?"

From the corner of her eye, Shen Tang saw black mist pouring out of the broken limbs of the other party, and they instantly recovered as before. The killer took advantage of Shen Tang's strength and had just released it. There was a gap in his next move, and he slashed her neck with his backhand.

The sharp and strange laughter was distant, hollow and solid, and it penetrated into her eardrums tenaciously. As if affected by the weird laughter, whether Shen Tang opened or closed his eyes, he could see countless double yellow eyes and black pupils quietly opening in all directions.

These eyes gradually distorted into countless killers.

Seeing the blade coated with special poison getting closer and closer to the target, the killer's eyes were filled with excitement, excitement and trembling!

Just a tiny bit missing!

"Well--"

This line became an insurmountable barrier for him.

"Although it's a little bit off, the shadow at noon is not that big. It should have hit, right?" The killer stared at Shen Tang in disbelief. The latter's right hand holding the knife was piercing the knife at the heart of the shadow under his feet, and he said calmly. Words that made him shiver.

Although it was a question, it was in a confident tone.

As if to confirm her words, a gurgling dark red liquid gushes out from the knife edge, turning into several small winding snakes and flowing out of the shadow range, completely exposed to the sun. This is fresh human blood!

"With such little ability, you dare to come and steal my head?"

It would be a pity not to go to the Fengluo Liyuan crew to create special effects and use it as a hotspot to attract customers.

He could obviously make money safely, but he risked his life to play with her.

The killer was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

His body began to melt and fold from the top of his head, converging into a puddle of asphalt on the ground. Shen Tang frowned lightly and moved his bare right foot away in disgust, for fear of getting a little bit contaminated - just because her defense was strong didn't mean that her shoes were also full of defense. She was attacked by a killer just now, and she was caught off guard and could only use her foot to catch him, causing her clogs to fall off on the spot. Scrapped and forced to go barefoot.

The shadow underfoot quickly swallowed up the "asphalt".

Shen Tang made another stab, but it only hit the ground masonry.

The feel is completely different from the previous knife.

"Tsk, one stab didn't kill him."

Stab the shadow with a knife. Although the tip of the knife has a dull feeling of breaking through the ribs, it is slightly different from piercing the heart. It should be deflected by an inch.

This injury cannot cost the brave warrior his life.

"Lord——"

Liao Qian's voice came from the carriage at the door.

Oh, no, it should be the meat buns made by Cui. The vest of Liao Qian is still in use by Liao Jia, while the real Liao Qian stays beside Shen Tang as a supervisor and thug, acting low-key and introverted, with almost no sense of presence.

He looked suspiciously at Shen Tang, who was standing motionless at the door.

And, a ball of blood suddenly appeared at her feet.

Liao Qian's pupils suddenly shrank: "My lord, you——"

Shen Tang asked, "What's wrong with me?"

Liao Qian: "..."

Judging from the location of the blood, it looked more like Shen Tang's bare feet, and the soles of his feet were accidentally cut with a sharp weapon. This kind of behavior may be a bit outrageous for ordinary people, but it is normal for the lord in front of him. Over the years, Liao Qian couldn't remember how many deviant and unconventional things the other party had done. I went crazy with my bare feet more than once.

Is this what he can say?

Shen Tang looked around.

Her hand holding the knife was also empty.

If it weren't for the warm human blood under her feet, even she would have suspected that the assassination just now was just her imagination.

"Zunguang, what did you see just now?"

"Just now? There was only the master."

Liao Qian only saw Shen Tang coming out of the government office with one bare foot, one foot deep and one foot shallow, standing at the door like a stupid pillar, motionless, as if in a daze. At first, he thought she was sad and reluctant to leave the post where she had worked for hundreds of days and nights, but soon found something wrong - even if she stood at the door and missed the sadness, it wouldn't take so long, right?

Liao Qian felt a little numb on his scalp.

He tried to make up for the loss, and he was alert and alert all around, but he didn't find anything unusual, but judging from the reaction of his lord, something happened just now.

"Is there someone else trying to assassinate the lord?"

"Don't look for him, he ran away when he saw the situation was not good. If I expected you to find the enemy, you would have eaten my first seven feasts." Shen Tang patted his shoulder, looked at the original "asphalt" position, and gathered his scattered thoughts, "It's just a sneaky little mouse."

Something crawled out of the gutter!

"I have repelled the person temporarily. I just don't know which force sent him. His moves are weird, but his ability is a bit interesting. Preliminary judgment shows that the opponent seems to be able to hide his body in the shadow of others to assassinate them closely, and his breath is perfectly restrained. If it is not a special warrior's words, then it is the intention of some warrior... It is a waste of talent to use this ability as a killer."

"Hide the body in the shadow of others? Doesn't it mean that you can kill anyone you want? Wherever the shadow is, you can lurk there?" Others may be furious if their superiors criticize their work ability, but Liao Qian can be thick-skinned and pretend nothing happened. He focuses on the killer ability. Looking at his own shadow under his feet, his scalp tingles, and he says, "Isn't this ability a natural killer?"

Subconsciously imagine the role of this ability on the battlefield. If it is used to kill the main general in front of the three armies, I dare not think how useful it is.

It is simply a weapon for harvesting military merits!

"The troupe is even more in need of this kind of special talent. There are four performances a day, and if you come out to play a supporting role, the dividends are higher than his votes, and there is no worry about his life. This ability can only be used at noon, because if you run into me, you will hit the iron plate sooner or later." Shen Tang dispelled Liao Qian's nervousness with a few words. Let alone being nervous, he was left with no choice but to laugh and cry. She became serious, "His ability should have great restrictions on use, otherwise, he would have become famous long ago."

Killers are a small group of warriors who are the most special. Other warriors pay attention to a reason for their actions, but killers are different. Killing people does not distinguish between good and evil, black and white, right and wrong, but only looks at the profit order.

The more famous the killer is, the more business he will get.

The fastest way to become famous is nothing more than stepping on the target's corpse to let the employer see the efficiency of the assassination. If a killer can use this ability unscrupulously, he will be the king of killers when he is a killer, and he will be a famous general who is feared by everyone when he is a general... If he has neither, it can only prove two points-his ability is very limited and cannot be done as he pleases; this guy may belong to a private force.

"Next time, let this sneaky little mouse become a dead rat in the gutter!"

Shen Tang didn't show it on her face, but she was still depressed in her heart.

It's reasonable to suspect that both the original body and the incarnation have been comfortable for too long, so that their skills have deteriorated, and even a fragile assassin who is engaged in assassination dares to make trouble for her! Sure enough, a sharp blade needs to be polished all the time to maintain its condition. And she hasn't fought for two years!

She sits in the office every day and reviews memorials every day.

If it weren't for her self-discipline in life, her abdominal muscles would run away from home piece by piece. Liao Qian is just talking about things that are not open.

"Did the lord come to kill people?"

This is a bit beyond expectations. Although Liao Qian didn't know that the lord in front of him was actually just an incarnation, and he didn't know Shen Tang's true strength, but from the contact in the past two years, he knew that Shen Tang was very strong. Whether it was the tricky martial arts competition to recruit a bride, or the use of force to suppress the temptation of overt and covert intentions, she was at ease and never failed, let alone suffered losses.

It was a normal inquiry, but it sounded different in Shen Tang's ears.

He kicked her with a bad temper.

Liao Qian dodged directly, with a natural smug look between his eyebrows, as if to say - hey, you can't hit me!

Shen Tang: "..."

Liao Qian looked at her bare feet and made a sincere suggestion: "Should I get a pair of clogs for the lord? The ground is bumpy. Even if the lord's feet are invulnerable, walking barefoot will still hurt your feet."

"If you don't speak, I won't think you are dumb."

Liao Qian and Liao Jia are indeed relatives.

When Liao Jia doesn't smile, he is also a serious and handsome young man, but when he smiles, he becomes a sleazy and treacherous human trafficker; Liao Qian's appearance does not have this defect, but this mouth, combined with his habit of doing as much work as he is paid, has a weird temperament.

After getting on the carriage, Liao Qian was still absent-minded.

"Does the lord have any clues about the mastermind?"

"Whoever benefits is the mastermind."

"It's hard to guess based on the lord's social interactions."

To put it bluntly, according to the lord's logic of guessing the real murderer, Liao Qian thinks everyone is the murderer. Not to mention how many people she offended in the martial arts competition, she offended her superiors, the clerks, and a group of people who wanted to take advantage of her but were dealt with in the two years she was in office. In addition, the lord's governance performance was too good, and he also offended a circle of neighbors.

Liao Qian told the truth: "Enemy everywhere."

Natural disasters are frequent in the southwest continent every rainy season. Not to mention every year, but there are always two times in five years. A lot of manpower and material resources have to be spent on strengthening dams and clearing rivers. After the disaster, emergency repairs and reconstruction are required. If it affects agricultural harvests, taxes for that year must be reduced or exempted as appropriate, and money must be paid to appease the victims... In this case, deceiving superiors and subordinates and withholding disaster relief silver are common.

Among the group of people crying and begging for their parents, she stands out.

Only a few houses were destroyed and a few people were injured. The damage was so small that the royal court did not need to allocate money for disaster relief. This made the neighbors stand out. A natural disaster causes widespread damage, and it is impossible to spare anyone. Either Shen Tang was cheating, or her neighbors were cheating. So whose pockets are the profits cut off from personal enrichment, and who is responsible for the losses caused by dereliction of duty?

Shen Tang tore off their noses and tore them to pieces!

The source of many previous assassinations is here.

"There are too many people who want to harm my lord." Liao Qian said this as a treasure. He recalled for her lord how many people wanted to harm her, and the methods were endless. "A group of sneaky gangsters were once stopped at the border. After rigorous interrogation, they found out that they were carrying Acne scabs and pulp.”

These were all from smallpox patients.

You can also see from the side how much the lord hates her!

Once smallpox spreads, nine out of every ten rooms will be empty.

Liao Qian murmured in a low voice: "To be honest, even the king of the country dislikes my lord and wants to kill you."

He emphasized again.

"Of course, not this time, but before."

If the lord, as an official, was not too independent and lit up a lamp to illuminate the filth in the room, the king could still live a simple life with his eyes closed - when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and corrupt officials can also do things while amassing money, stabilizing the operation of the royal court. The king is beneficial.

"Now that the king needs the lord, of course he will not take action."

Excluding one country leader, the rest are all suspects.

Thinking of the current situation where enemies are everywhere, Liao Qian felt a little nervous. The lord is so powerful that he is not afraid of sneak attacks by the shadow killer, but he is not the same. Fortunately, the killer was targeting the lord. If he had targeted the people around the lord, a lot of people would probably have died.

Cutting off the wings can also weaken the lord's power in disguise, deterring the outside world from easily defecting to her command. Only if the mastermind behind the scenes still has integrity, or has not thought of this, can Liao Qian be safe and sound: "My lord has been reused, and someone must give up his position... Lord, do you think it was the person who was squeezed out who did it?"

This is the most direct conflict of interest.

Shen Tang finally gave him some reaction.

"Do you think it's Mei Jinghe?"

Liao Qian used to be in the Cui family, so he was no stranger to Mei Jinghe. He also knew that this person was the number one contributor to assisting the king in ascending to the throne. Not only was he extremely powerful in the Qi State, he also took the initiative to launch several annihilations against neighboring countries. Guo Zhan is definitely a ruthless person!

He thought for a while, shook his head and said: "For such a heroic woman, she should not be the one who disdains such shady activities."

Not everyone likes to rely on assassination to deal with political opponents.

Even the slightest bit of arrogance would disdain this.

Shen Tang vaguely guessed.

“Not her, but not necessarily the people around her.”
