Chapter 44 Forty-fourth: Someone wants to kill me
The lantern is very light, and it is not too heavy to carry in the hand. Qin Huaisu weighed it in the palm of his hand, and handed it to Jiang Changning.
Jiang Changning didn’t reach out to pick it up.
Qin Huaisu involuntarily took Jiang Changning’s hand, and stuffed the handle of the lantern into her palm. Turning his face away, he urged impatiently: “Tsk, you women just like these fancy things. It’s useless for the king to ask for this stuff, so I’ll take it if I give it to you.”
【What are you pretending bro? ! How can a good person grow a broken mouth! 】886 is angry and indisputable, there are wolves in front and tigers in back, why are you so stubborn now? !
“Shut up!” Qin Huaisu shouted coldly in his heart.
Jiang Changning heard clearly, knowing that Qin Huaisu was uncomfortable. Not thinking it was funny and not wishing him any good intentions anymore, Fushen thanked him and took the handle.
The palm of the hand can still feel the warmth left by Qin Huaisu’s palm.
There is no detail in the lantern, and the handle is light-colored rosewood, which feels warm and delicate. Lifting it is like lifting a cloud.
There are red spikes of moderate length under the lantern, which swing slowly as they walk, creating beautiful red waves.
Jiang Luoqi stomped his feet, his face stern. Seeing Gu Xiujing looking over, he quickly changed his face, pretending to be weak and weak.
“It doesn’t matter, brother Jing, because Luo’er has no fate with the lantern, brother Jing bothered, did you hurt when you shot the arrow just now?” Said with a concerned look, he quickly turned Gu Xiujing’s palm to look.
It’s okay not to mention it, Gu Xiujing was very angry, and he felt ashamed because of his bad archery, but now he felt that his self-esteem was damaged when Jiang Luo mentioned it, so he pulled his hand out preconditionally.
Jiang Luo didn’t expect him to make such a move, and froze for a moment.
Chunying stood far away from the crowd, taking in everyone’s expressions, with a clear heart.
The person she cared about was staring at the girl Jiang who he always talked about, and now it was precisely because Qin Huaisu handed her a lantern that he showed a disappointed look.
Chunying’s heart felt astringent, she couldn’t show her indifference to the fact that she had expected for a long time before her eyes. As if mud was poured into her heart and quickly solidified, she heard her heavy breathing.
Jiang Luo looked at Gu Xiujing with tears in her eyes, her tone was lonely and pitiful: “It’s all Luoer’s fault, it’s Luoer’s greed, brother Jing is troubled.”
Gu Xiujing came back to her senses, feeling that she had overreacted. He wanted to reach out his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of Jiang Luo’s eyes, but stopped halfway thinking of the eyes next to him.
I don’t know why, feeling sore in my heart, Gu Xiujing crushed her fingers. Turning his head to look at the lantern that fell in Jiang Changning’s hand, he wanted to ask her to get it for Jiang Luo.
But before he could speak, a chill suddenly spread down his spine. Gu Xiujing was swept over by Qin Huaisu’s cold gaze, pursing his lips and resting his mind.
“Girl, this lantern is so beautiful!” Hong Xing bent over Jiang Changning’s hand and looked at it, and couldn’t help sighing.
“Yeah.” Jiang Changning smiled.
Seeing her like this, Qin Huaisu was also a little excited, and suggested: “If you like it, you can light the lamp.”
Chun Ying answered: “This lamp has been hanging vacantly since Master Mu handed it over, and no one has ever turned it on. Now that the owner has been found, Miss Jiang might as well light it up, and let us see how this strange lamp lights up. style!”
The eyes of everyone present were filled with anticipation, and the young man with a small mole at the end of his eye just now surrounded him at some point, staring at the lantern in Jiang Changning’s hand with bright eyes.
Jiang Changning nodded, and took the fire bag handed by the person next to him.
Chun Ying asked someone to turn off the rest of the lights in the ship building. In an instant, the room was completely dark, leaving only the light on the water surface illuminated by street lanterns to faintly reflect into the house.
Jiang Changning breathed a sigh of relief, and the torch was lit. Just as he aimed at the candle wick and lit it, there was a commotion outside.
A group of men in black came in over the ship’s rail and through the window, with swords everywhere.
“Come here, there are assassins!”
“Girl—” is Hongxing’s voice.
The fire folder at hand was picked away, and the crowd in the ship building was crowded and fled in all directions. I don’t know who bumped into Jiang Changning and took her away from her original position.
“Jiang Changning—” Qin Huaisu knocked down several men in black and was looking for her.
Shen Dong drew out his long sword to stop an assassin, and was still looking back during the stalemate: “Girl Jiang—”
When Huozhezi was picked away, Jiang Changning touched a cold weapon on the back of his hand, like a dagger.
Someone wanted to kill her, and she clearly sensed his killing intent.
The short knife stabbed at her position immediately after picking up the fire. Fortunately, she was hit by someone and passed by the blade, only breaking a few strands of hair.
Taking advantage of the dim environment, Jiang Changning held his breath and retreated quietly, not answering the shout not far away. Those who wanted to kill her stayed by her side, and if they were exposed, they might be silenced before they could be saved.
The man failed in one blow, so he turned around and rushed in Jiang Changning’s direction. Jiang Changning dodged sideways, but the lantern in his hand was knocked to the ground by the opponent.
With a “snap” sound of jade falling to the ground, Jiang Changning picked up the plane and squatted behind the bogu stand. The lantern in her hand had been lost, she clutched her palms, and after much deliberation decided to retrieve it later. If it is left behind, the small-minded prince will definitely have trouble with himself again.
She pulled out a few silver barley from her waist and threw them to the front left. She remembered that there was a glazed mirror there before the lights were turned off.
Sure enough, there was a crisp sound, and the glass mirror fell to the ground with a crisp sound of shattering, covering her footsteps.
Jiang Changning felt that the people in the dark were being led away by the sound, and took the opportunity to escape overboard.
The environment was pitch black and he couldn’t see the road under his feet. Jiang Changning was worried that he might accidentally touch something that would make a noise and attract people behind him, so he walked a few steps with difficulty, but fortunately he ran into Jiang Luo who was fleeing for his life.
“The host takes three steps to the right, then walks straight forward, keeps going…”
Caught off guard by the guiding sound of the Jiangluo system, Jiang Changning’s heart skipped a beat. Silently followed behind, using his strength to escape from inside.
Not Jiangluo?
Jiang Changning originally thought that the person who attacked him just now was Jiang Luo, but now she is running ahead of him…
Although it can’t be seen clearly, it is clearly the figure of a woman.
Jiang Changning was undecided in his heart, seeing many figures of men in black falling outside.
“Girl—” Hong Xing refused to go out, and insisted on rushing in with her head straight regardless of the swords and swords next to her.
Qin Huaisu is a martial arts practitioner, and his night vision ability is better than ordinary people. Most of the black-clothed men who disturbed him around him were cleared away. Finally, he had time to look carefully, but he didn’t see that familiar figure anyway.
“Damn it.” Qin Huaisu was anxious in his heart, and kicked the man in black who flew up to him. Seeing that Hong Xing was still standing there, he shouted Jiang Changning’s name in a panic. Pushing the person out on Hongxing’s back: “There’s nothing inside, go look outside!”
The former attendants in the flower boat were running at the forefront because they were familiar with the route, and all of them were frightened and embarrassed when they encountered an unexpected situation, and they ran away in a hurry, with disheveled clothes and disheveled hair.
When Jiang Changning escaped behind Jiang Luo, he saw the Habayashi army running towards this side with their scabbards in order.
My heart sank for a while, standing outside the boat, I could still hear Hongxing’s loud shouts resounding across the river bank, knowing that she was not injured, Jiang Changning’s eyes bent and his heart settled down slightly.
Thank you for your support.
