Beauty and the Bodyguard

Because it is led by the God of Death Bai Qi, even if it is not Bai Qi's own obsession, the scenes that reappear are often related to killing.

Just like the current scene, it is Jing Ke who is the pinnacle of assassination in history, assassinating Qin.

"I'm Meng Jia?"

Lin Yi thought for a long time before he could barely remember what it was.

His position was that of the concubine under King Ying Zheng of Qin, and he could be regarded as a favored minister who was trusted by Ying Zheng. Historically, Jing Ke’s plan to assassinate Qin was because he accepted Prince Dan’s bribe and spoke favorably for the State of Yan in front of the King of Qin. And work hard to promote it.

Lin Yi never expected that he would become such a character after entering the baptism of assassins. He thought that since it was Jing Ke who assassinated the King of Qin, even if it was not Jing Ke himself, it would at least be Qin Wuyang who accompanied him. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the assassin. A jester.

As for the mission that Lin Yi needs to accomplish, this one is extremely simple and clear: survive.

If the plot develops completely according to the historical trend, Jing Ke's assassination failed, King Qin had the last laugh despite being close to death, and as a subordinate of King Qin, he would naturally also...

Lin Yi was suddenly stunned. What was Meng Jia's fate in history?

There is no evidence of specific historical facts, but I vaguely remember that after the assassination, King Long Yan of Qin was furious, and all relevant personnel were imprisoned. Of course, Meng Jia, the chief accomplice who single-handedly facilitated the assassination, was indispensable among them. With the temper of King Qin, there was no chance of survival. It's trivial, but he will definitely die!

In other words, if the situation is allowed to develop according to historical trends, Lin Yi will definitely be dead!

Lin Yi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He had subconsciously thought that something would be easy and pleasant, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous. But if it were the other way around, and he really wanted to change history so that Jing Ke could succeed in his assassination, then when the King of Qin died, the entire Qin State would be furious. He, the number one accomplice, It’s also impossible to escape death!

It's a dead end on both sides.

No wonder the mission is just to survive, not simple at all.

Just when Lin Yi was in trouble, a subordinate suddenly came over and reported: "Sir, there is someone outside asking for an audience, claiming to be an envoy of the State of Yan."

Lin Yi was stunned, could the plot begin now?

"My lord? My lord?"

Seeing Lin Yi's expressionless face, the doorman came closer and whispered: "That man claimed to have prepared a generous gift and wanted to honor you."

Lin Yi reacted and glanced at him lightly: "Then bring him to see me."

In fact, a thought flashed across my mind just now. What would happen if I rejected the other party's bribe? Can this avoid the dilemma of a certain death option?

From common sense, this may be the most realistic solution. After all, in theory, as long as you stay out of the matter, no matter whether Jing Ke's assassination of Qin happened or not, whether it was successful or not, it has nothing to do with Meng Jia today. He will naturally be held responsible afterwards. I can't even ask myself.

But can the assassin's trial, known as a narrow escape, really be that simple?

If you just stick to it until the end without having anything to do with yourself, you will be able to reach a state where you have nothing to do with it. Is there such a good thing in the world? Do you really think that the God of Death Bai Qi started his career as a philanthropist?

Therefore, Lin Yi made the counter-intuitive choice without much hesitation and met with the Yan State envoy.

Soon, an imposing middle-aged man was introduced to the door. Judging from his restrained demeanor, he was definitely not an ordinary man. For a moment, Lin Yi even thought that this man was Jing Ke!

But then he realized that this person could never be Jing Ke, but he was most likely a practitioner who participated in the assassin's baptism like himself, and his level was quite high. Even Lin Yi couldn't see through it at a glance.

Not surprisingly, this person must also be a participant in Jing Ke's assassination of Qin, and can even be said to be one of the key figures. As an envoy of the Yan State, he would not miss the last key scene both emotionally and rationally.

But for Lin Yi, who is wearing the identity of Meng Jia, the other party may not be so friendly, at least they will never be in the same camp.

There is no doubt that the cultivators who participate in the assassin's baptism are the most dangerous people to be wary of. Judging from Lin Yi's own situation, different identities and camps will inevitably lead to different tasks. It is highly likely that the cultivators will eventually kill each other. event.

If not, Killer Baptism would not have such a high mortality rate.

"The middle stage of the Great Consummation of the Giants? Haha, when did the level of killer baptism become so low?"

When the visitor met, he unscrupulously identified himself, and the contempt disappeared in a flash, but it was not clear whether it was real contempt or fake contempt disguised to confuse Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be surprised and said: "Your Excellency, are you also a practitioner who participated in the baptism?"

With Lin Yi's ability, it is not difficult to hide the aura of the realm like the other party, but the realm of the giant's mid-stage Dzogchen itself is the most perfect and most authentic disguise for Lin Yi. Naturally, he must make the best use of it on this occasion. .

"Haha, you are indeed a complete rookie, attending a baptism for the first time, right?"

The visitor sneered, and sat down carelessly at the main seat. While pouring himself tea, he looked Lin Yi up and down: "Tell me, how did you get this lucky spot?"

Lin Yi just showed a bit of confusion: "This..."

"Why do you, a rookie, have anything to hide in front of a senior person like me? Do you really think I'm trying to get you?"

The visitor cursed and said to himself: "My name is Dong Que. I am a veteran who has been baptized twice. My current identity is the envoy of the Yan State. You must also know the mission, which is to bribe you to help facilitate the Yan State. The country's assassins met with the King of Qin, so we have a cooperative relationship, do you understand?"

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched and captured the key information: "Two baptisms? Are killer baptisms very frequent?"

Dong Que looked at him like an idiot: "Any baptism spot is a huge opportunity. Do you think it's just cabbage on the roadside that you can pick up casually?"

"Uh...I did pick it up..."

Lin Yi weakly raised his hand: "Originally, the quota belonged to my sister, but she was seriously injured during a previous mission. The family had no choice but to throw the quota to me and let me make up the number. In fact, I don't want to come at all."

"..."

Dong Que wanted to hit someone when he heard these nonsense. He suffered heavy losses in order to compete for the spot. Even his own brothers got involved. He worked hard and paid the price of blood before he was lucky enough to grab the spot. He was different from the image of this stupid boy created by Lin Yi. Comparing it, I suddenly felt that life was boring.

Lin Yi saw this and asked weakly: "Brother, when was the last time you attended a baptism?"

"five years ago."

Dong Que glanced at him angrily. Jealousy was contorting. If it weren't for his mission, he would have really wanted to strangle this stupid, unlucky guy to death.

Lin Yi was stunned: "The killer is baptized once every five years?"
