Chapter 227: Poison on the Sword

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Looking at the masked black-clothed man who suddenly broke in and held a sharp blade, the girl screamed in fright, her legs weakened, and she sat directly on the ground. The two men in black glanced at her, and then scanned the room back and forth. This room is not very big, and there are not many furnishings, so it is clear at a glance. The two men in black only looked around roughly before one of them turned around

Walking outside, another man in black looked at the girl and asked, "Did anyone come in just now?" ”

The girl shook her head dumbly and said in a trembling voice, "No...... The slave family didn't see ......"

The man in black stared at her for a moment, shook the sword in his hand, and turned to walk out. When he walked to the door, he was about to go out, but his raised leg slowly retracted.

He lifted his nose, took two breaths in a row, his eyes flashed, he stared at the girl intently, and said in a cold tone, "Why does your room smell of blood?" ”

His words surprised Liu Xiu, who was hiding under the bed.

He did have injuries on his body, and the wounds were indeed bleeding, but he had already sprinkled so much rouge that even he couldn't smell the blood, and the other party could still smell it, what a keen sense of smell must be?

The man in black walked towards the stunned and stupid girl step by step, and when he got close to her, his wrist flicked, and the edge of the Qingfeng Sword was already against the girl's throat, and he said in a deep voice: "Say! Why does your room smell blood! ”

The girl shivered, her little face turned pale, and she stammered, "Yes...... It's the slave family...... It's ...... menstruation."

Hearing this, the man in black's eyes flashed and frowned. The girl's face turned from white to red, she slowly pulled up the hem of her skirt, and said with a red face, "What if...... If you don't believe it, you can take a look......"

The hem of her skirt rose higher and higher, and when she was about to reveal her dirty pants, the man in black suddenly withdrew his sword, strode out, and spat out two words lightly: "Bad luck." ”

The two men in black left the room one after the other, and after a while, hearing the sound that the other party had walked away, the girl couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and sat down on the ground, beads of sweat running down her temples.

Just when the black-clothed people searched for Liu Xiu room by room like headless flies, a long and sharp whistle suddenly sounded outside Baixiang Building.

Hearing the whistle, all the men in black stopped searching, ran out of the rooms, looked at each other, and then ran out together.

This group of people in black came fast, ran faster, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Less than five minutes after they had left, they heard the rumbling of footsteps in the street outside, and hundreds of soldiers galloping towards them, followed by a large convoy of horses.

After confirming that the men in black had fled, Liu Xiufang got out from under the bed.

The girl stood up tremblingly, walked quickly to Liu Xiu, looked down at the wound on his arm, and said cautiously, "You...... You're wounded, and you've left a lot of blood......"

Liu Xiu, who often fights on the battlefield, no longer cares about such a small injury. He looked up at the girl in front of him, and only then did he take a closer look at her.

The girl was not very old, sixteen or seventeen years old, she was born well, her skin was fair, and her facial features were beautiful, but there was a large red birthmark on her right forehead, which extended to her right eye.

This birthmark undoubtedly ruined the beauty of the girl's entire face, making her originally delicate and cute appearance look hideous and scary.

Liu Xiu looked at it and secretly said that it was a pity, a good girl was born white and clean, clear and delicate, but she had such a large birthmark that was an eyesore.

But after thinking about it, I felt that it was not a good thing for this girl to have such a birthmark.

The other girls were in the room because there were guests who came to patronize, but this girl stayed in the room, probably because it was the order of the bustard, and she didn't want her to go out and be scared.

Looking at the furnishings in her room, she is poor and white, and it is estimated that there are no guests to patronize her on weekdays, but this birthmark has preserved her innocence.

Liu Xiu's voice was a little weak, "What's your name?" ”

"The slave is called...... It's called Xiaoqing. "I ask you for your real name." "Mu Yanqing."

Liu Xiu nodded, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Are you Peng Musheng and the former county yating?" ”

The girl's body shook and whispered, "Exactly...... It's my father. ”

Liu Xiu thought about it carefully, and said quietly: "I don't remember that Mu Sheng has such a daughter as you. ”

Liu Xiu spent a lot of time in Xinye, and he didn't know everything about the officials of the county government, but he also knew something.

In his impression, Ting Peng Musheng has two daughters, the eldest daughter has already married a wife, and the younger daughter is waiting to be married.

can look at the age and appearance of this Mu Yanqing, she is neither Mu Sheng's eldest daughter nor the youngest daughter, so where did she jump out of?

The girl lowered her head and said in a low voice: "The slave family is a concubine, who did not live in the city before, and has been living in the village outside the city, but then my father had an accident, and the slave family ...... The slave family was sent to Baixiang Building. ”

So that's the case, no wonder I haven't heard that Mu Sheng has such a daughter as Mu Yanqing, it turned out to be a concubine, looking at her appearance, it is estimated that she would not be too favored in the Mu family before, otherwise she would not have been settled in the Zhuangzi outside the city.

As they were talking, they heard the sound of rumbling footsteps upstairs outside, and at the same time, they could hear Ma Wu's shout pulling his neck: "Lord! Lord! ”

Liu Xiu smiled at Mu Yanqing and said, "The annoying girl helped me up!" Mu Yanqing grabbed one of Liu Xiu's arms and helped him up from the ground. After getting up, Liu Xiu felt a whirlwind of the world, he shook his head, stabilized his figure, first poured a thank you to Mu Yanqing, and then raised his voice outside

Said: "Zizhang, I'm here!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a whoosh, and Ma Wu rushed in from outside.

Seeing Liu Xiu standing in the house, Ma Wu immediately stepped forward quickly, and said in surprise and joy: "Lord! Seeing that there was a lot of blood on his arm, Ma Wu's face changed again, and he asked urgently, "Lord, are you injured?" ”

Liu Xiu said nonchalantly: "It's just a flesh injury, it's not in the way." He changed his mind and asked, "Zizhang, did you see those assassins when you arrived?" ”

Ma Wu shook his head and said, "Lord, when the subordinates arrived, the assassins had already fled, but the lord didn't have to worry, his subordinates have sent cavalry to track down!" ”

While they were talking, Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun also walked in from outside. Seeing the wound on Liu Xiu's arm, the two of them looked solemn and asked in unison, "Ah Xiu, what's going on?" ”

Liu Xiu said: "I sent Liu Jin back to Liu's mansion, and on the way home, I was attacked by assassins. ”

Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun glanced at each other, squinted their eyes and said, "Could it be that Liu Yong ...... him?"

Before the two of them finished speaking, Liu Xiu waved his hand and said firmly: "It's not him." ”

These assassins could not have been sent by Liu Yong. First of all, he saved Liu Jin, Liu Yong had no reason to kill him, and secondly, these assassins were too powerful, and with Liu Yong's strength and ability, he could not find so many assassins who were so powerful.

"Who could that be?" Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun frowned.

Ma Wu Zhengse said: "Who sent the assassin, you can slowly investigate it in the future, and now the lord is injured and needs to go back to the house for treatment immediately!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xiu suddenly felt dizzy, and his body softened. Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun were quick and hurriedly supported Liu Xiu, shocked and shocked: "Ah Xiu, what's wrong with you?" Liu Xiu waved his hand slightly, at this time everything in his eyes had become a ghost, and it was constantly rotating around him, he said weakly: "It's nothing, it's just a little dizzy, it may be that he ran for too long just now and lost too much blood."

Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun hurriedly said, "Ah Xiu, let's go home immediately!" As he spoke, Zhu Yun tore off Liu Xiu's sleeve and wanted to help him bandage the wound first.

Liu Xiu looked back at Mu Yanqing, pondered for a moment, and said, "Take this Mu girl with you." ”

Ma Wu mistakenly thought that Mu Yanqing was an accomplice of the assassin, and subconsciously held the sword under his side, looking at Mu Yanqing's eyes like knives.

Mu Yanqing's face changed in fright, and she subconsciously took a step back, leaned back, and involuntarily sat on the ground. Seeing this, Liu Xiu frowned slightly, and said, "Zizhang, don't be rude, it was Miss Mu who saved me just now." ”

Hearing this, Ma Wu's sharp eyes immediately softened, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword was also lowered, and he bowed to Mu Yanqing and said, "Miss Mu, it's rude to Xia Gang!" Miss Mu, please! ”

At this time, Mu Yanqing had already heard that the young man who suddenly broke into his room to hide was the younger brother of Liu Xiu, the general of the Zhutian Capital Department, Liu Xiu. She looked at Liu Xiu blankly, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a while. At this time, Zhu Yun, who was bandaging Liu Xiu's wound, gasped, just now there was a sleeve to cover it, and he couldn't see the wound clearly, but now he tore off Liu Xiu's sleeve, which was clear

Seeing that the flesh on both sides of the wound was already jet black, he hurriedly said, "Not good! Ah Xiu is poisoned! ”

Hearing his words, Ma Wu and Zhang Ping looked at each other, and their faces also changed.

The wound is jet black, which is clearly a sign of poisoning. Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun glanced at each other, and the two of them invariably helped Liu Xiu to Mu Yanqing's bed and let him lie on it.

Now they don't dare to touch Liu Xiu anymore, and the blood flow is accelerating, which will only make Liu Xiu poisoned even deeper. Ma Wu strode to the door of the room and shouted at the soldiers outside: "Find the medical officer!" Hurry up and go to the county office and bring all the medical officers over! ”

The news of Liu Xiu's assassination and poisoning soon spread to the county government. Hearing this, Liu Xuan was also anxious, took the medical officer of the county government, and hurriedly came to Baixianglou.

When I saw Liu Xiu, the latter was lying on the bed, and his head was full of beads of sweat, which hurt. Liu Xiu swallowed his saliva, walked to the bed, and looked down to carefully examine the wound on Liu Xiu's arm.

By this time, the wound had become black, hideous and terrifying. Liu Xiu picked up the hand towel, gently wiped the beads of sweat on Liu Xiu's head, and whispered with relief: "Ah Xiu, don't worry, the medical officer has come, and I will detoxify you immediately!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the three medical officers he had brought, and said in a deep voice, "Detoxify immediately!" ”

The three medical officers bowed in agreement, walked up to Liu Xiu, and looked closely at the wound on his arm.

The three of them looked and touched, but after being busy for a long time, they couldn't judge what kind of poison Liu Xiuzhong was.

If it was a strong poison, it stands to reason that Liu Xiu would have been poisoned for so long, and he should have died a long time ago. But if it was an ordinary poison, the two of them had really never seen it, and the wound was black to this extent, which was completely a manifestation of strong poison. Seeing the three medical officers muttering and muttering, unable to make a judgment for a long time, Liu Xuan's eyes were red, and he asked sharply, "Why don't you detoxify my brother?" ”
