The Villain, The Quack, Poisons The Two Protagonists At The Beginning
Chapter 42 First Murder?
Wei Lang didn't know exactly what the Eye of Disillusionment did.
He quietly performed some exercises, and now he can shoot golden light with his thoughts, but he still can't control the intensity of the golden light.
This dazzling golden light actually comes from the powerful spiritual power of the spiritual Gu.
At the moment of the explosion, spiritual power will also be injected into the meridians of Wei Lang's body, giving him extraordinary power.
So that flying sword actually penetrated the masked man's chest directly!
Then the sword flew out more than ten meters and penetrated deeply into the courtyard wall!
"Hiss..." Wei Lang really didn't expect the strength to be so strong. He originally planned to stay alive...
But now a bloody hole was pierced in the masked man's chest, and blood was pouring out like a fountain. He twitched twice and then died!
Wei Lang was stunned for a while, and when he came to his senses, he quickly ran to the wall and pulled the sword out of the wall with all his strength.
Then he hacked the corpse indiscriminately, destroying the traces of the battle at the scene;
This is of course done to cover up the power of the Gu cultivator and avoid causing trouble.
When he was almost done, the patrol soldiers from the Tang family also rushed over...
Xiao Zhi and others were still alive and needed detoxification and healing, which gave Ruan Ning another opportunity to show off her talents.
Wei Lang brought the masked man's body to Prime Minister Tang and asked him to deal with it.
After being identified by several domestic servants, the man's name was Cheng Sande. He had been working as a handyman in the Tang family for more than half a year. He usually pretended to be honest and honest, and saw no problems.
Preliminary speculation is that he is the undercover agent installed by the Qiongqi Gang in the Tang family, and he cooperated with Zhong Peng in launching an assassination a few days ago.
And tonight, the place where Cheng Sande set the fire was the cell where the four-foot turtle was held;
The motive was probably to kill someone and silence them.
Although the Tang family reacted quickly and put out the fire quickly, the four-foot turtle still died.
But he was not burned to death, but poisonous smoke...
The cunning Cheng Sande actually put a special poison into the fire, letting it spread with the thick smoke produced by the burning and pour it into the cell.
Although this smoke-type poison had limited lethality and only damaged the respiratory tracts of some of the servants, the four-foot turtle was already half-dead due to its severe injuries. He choked to death after taking a few puffs of poisonous smoke.
I have to say that this move is really clever and makes the Tang family very difficult to guard against.
Now Prime Minister Tang has a headache.
The key witness, Si Chi Gui, is dead, the assassin's handyman is also dead, and all clues are lost!
Prime Minister Tang dismissed his servants, leaving only Wei Lang in the house, and asked with a serious face: "Did you kill this assassin?"
"Yes. I won by luck." Wei Lang admitted frankly.
Prime Minister Tang frowned and asked, "When did you develop such skills?"
In his impression, Wei Lang was only a third-rate guard and could not defeat the assassin.
Although Wei Lang's physical fitness seems to have improved recently, it is impossible for him to make rapid progress in his cultivation, right?
Wei Lang pretended to be embarrassed and scratched his head, and explained: "This assassin's level is actually average. He didn't dare to fight us head-on, so he ran away while throwing hidden weapons. Xiao Zhi fought with him for a while and exhausted all his hidden weapons and weapons. Physical strength, this allowed me to take advantage..."
"Is this your first time to kill someone? Why are you so calm?" Prime Minister Tang still felt that something was wrong. Wei Lang seemed to be very timid in the past!
"Uh..." Wei Lang hesitated for a moment, "It's not the first time. I have killed many people."
Prime Minister Tang was shocked when he heard this: "When? How did you kill him!?"
"Medical malpractice..."
"..." Prime Minister Tang fell silent.
After a long while, he waved his hand to Wei Lang: "You go down first... Oh, by the way, you don't need to bring me those messy supplements when you go home, I don't need them..."
"Hey cousin, what should we do about the emperor's personal expedition?" But Wei Lang still had questions to ask, "My cousin and I don't want to go far..."
Prime Minister Tang said: "This matter has not yet been decided. The ministers and I have been writing memorials to dissuade the emperor. In addition, friends in the Forbidden Army are also trying to delay the time... Anyway, the army cannot be assembled and set off in a short time. We still have operations. Chance."
"Oh...that's very good." Wei Lang hoped that the expedition could be postponed until after the Qiuxi Festival.
In addition to Tang Yu's important plan... he also wanted to see Gu Shixian's assassination at Jiang Waner's auction!
Of course, the plot has been spoiled, and it’s not sure whether the assassination can still happen on time...
While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Prime Minister Tang ask: "By the way, I heard that you have a relationship with that oiran from Shengxianfang. What's going on?"
It seems that Xiao Zhi has reported Jiang Waner's secret meeting with Wei Lang.
You can't blame him, after all, Prime Minister Tang is the real boss, and he doesn't dare to hide important information.
Wei Lang didn't intend to lie and answered truthfully: "I asked Jiang Waner to find out the whereabouts of the assassin. Maybe I can gain something."
Prime Minister Tang nodded and just reminded: "Don't get too close to that woman."
Wei Lang asked: "Why?"
"That woman's identity is very special. I haven't investigated it clearly yet... In short, it's better to keep a distance first."
"Okay, got it."
...
After bidding farewell to Prime Minister Tang, Wei Lang went to check on Xiao Zhi's condition.
At this time, Xiao Zhi had taken the antidote prepared by Ruan Ning, and his condition had improved a lot, and he was thanking Ruan Ning with a grateful face.
"Isn't it? The little brother I just liked will become Ruan Ning's licking dog!?" Wei Lang suddenly had a bad feeling, "She treats everyone and conquers everyone...in the end, won't they all become her people?"
Could it be that tonight's arson incident was just to create an opportunity for Ruan Ning to recruit the licking dog?
Hiss...that's not the case, is it? I feel like Xiao Zhi doesn’t have that important role...
Based on past experience, all disaster events revolve around Ruan Ning, and also involve Gu Shixian, the second male lead, or important villains like Imperial Physician Wei and Tang Yu.
As for Xiao Zhi, it seems that he is not yet at that level...
So, who can have anything to do with tonight’s arson?
"Vice dean, are you here?" Ruan Ning saw Wei Lang and smiled sweetly.
But the more Wei Lang thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Without even saying hello to Ruan Ning, he ran directly back to Prime Minister Tang and asked for a closer inspection of the assassin's body.
"They're all dead like this, what else is there to investigate?" Of course Prime Minister Tang didn't understand, "Do you have a grudge against him? Do you have to cut him down like this?"
The corpse had been slashed with countless swords by Wei Lang, and it was already bloody and mutilated.
"Ahem, I like to touch up... Safety first, don't be careless..." Wei Lang said perfunctorily and ordered his servants to strip off all the clothes on the corpse.
Then, Wei Lang frowned and checked, and soon discovered the problem.
This man is missing an important part, and it's not the one that was cut off just now...
"Gan, this guy is a eunuch... I'm afraid he's not from Qiongqi's gang, but..."
