The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world

Chapter 266 Assassination and poisoning, this is the correct way to open the world of ancient dragons

Su Shaoying shrugged, Huo Xiu was such a good friend, not only Dugu Yihe's old friend, but also Lu Xiaofeng's old friend.

It's a pity that Huo Xiu, like Huo Tianqing, also underestimated Su Shaoying.

Because Lu Xiaofeng was not there, Huo Tianqing thought he could kill Su Shaoying, consume Dugu Yihe, and then make Dugu Yihe run into Ximen Chuixue tired and angry.

These two are not people who are used to talking, so they will definitely fight to the death. Dugu Yihe is already destined to die.

Huo Tianqing thought so, and Huo Xiu didn't show up at the mourning hall, so he obviously thought so too.

However, they did not expect that Su Shaoying not only survived, but also showed weakness on behalf of Dugu Yihe, allowing Ximen Chuixue, who never took advantage of others, to stop and retreat.

Now, if Dugu Yihe and Lu Xiaofeng were to meet the next day...

When Dugu Yihe and Su Shaoying had just walked out of the Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion and turned into the path leading to Tianquan Temple, a burst of string music suddenly sounded in the darkness.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

More than a dozen crossbow arrows, as well as hidden weapons such as darts, flying knives, and locust stones, suddenly flew out from the woods on both sides of the road. They came one after another like flowers raining from the sky, directly hitting Dugu Yihe and Su Shaoying. .

Su Shaoying and Dugu Yihe drew their swords at the same time, and the two swords transformed into two sword circles. During the swing of the sword light, all hidden weapons could not get close to the two of them and fell one after another.

Dugu Yihe said solemnly, "There are at least two hidden weapon masters inside."

Anyone who can be called a master of hidden weapons by Dugu Yihe will not be an ordinary person, but Dugu Yihe is not just a mortal. He is a top master who can be called by Lu Xiaofeng along with Shaolin Dabei Zen Master and Wudang Mu Taoist.

If Huo Tianqing hadn't predicted that Dugu Yihe would not kill him right away, and used special moves to lure him and force him to do it head-on, he would definitely not be Dugu Yihe's opponent.

Even if Dugu Yihe only has half of his internal strength left, he cannot be assassinated by some hidden weapon.

After a rain of hidden weapons, the rustling sounds in the woods faded away. Dugu Yihe's eyes narrowed, and then he suppressed his anger and did not chase after him.

"Okay." Su Shaoying nodded, sheathed the sword, "Finally, it feels a bit like the ancient dragon world."

"What did you say?" Dugu Yihe turned around and asked.

"I say the real culprit behind the scenes has a lot of power at his disposal," Su Shaoying said.

Dugu Yihe nodded, "Huo Tianqing is the owner of Qingyi Building. Of course he can mobilize a lot of power."

Su Shaoying was also speechless for a while, "Huo Tianqing is the owner of Qingyi Building?"

"If it weren't for Tsing Yi Tower, where would there be so many good people?" Dugu Yihe said solemnly, "Furthermore, after I found out that the man behind the fake Jinpeng King last time was Tsing Yi Tower, I have been researching the news about Tsing Yi Tower. "

"Then what?" Su Shaoying asked.

"Then I checked and found out that the first floor of Qingyi is in Shanxi!" Dugu Yihe said.

Su Shaoying, "..."

"Just in Shanxi?" Su Shaoying blinked and said, "The scope is so large?"

Dugu Yihe shook his head and said in a deep voice, "The scope is no longer large. There are only a few people in Shanxi who are qualified to be the owner of Qingyi."

"Of course the biggest suspect is..."

"Huo Tianqing!"

After hearing what Dugu Yihe said, Su Shaoying had to admit that Huo Xiu hid it very well. He listed herself as the target of the fake Jinpeng King and directly cleared her suspicions.

What's more, he was not only Dugu Yihe's friend, but also Lu Xiaofeng's friend. How could they doubt Huo Xiu?

"Go back first. After meeting Lu Xiaofeng tomorrow, we will know whether it is true or false." Dugu Yihe said.

Then, they returned to Tianquan Temple smoothly. There were no killers lurking on the road, and they didn't know if they had given up.

…

The night was still deep, and there were only a few lights in Tianquan Temple, swaying in the warm but cold spring wind. The faint breathing of the Taoist priests in the temple could be heard, and they had obviously fallen asleep.

Dugu Yihe did not disturb the Taoist priests in the temple, but led Su Shaoying over the wall.

When they returned to the Guanli wing, the room was dark, and everything was as it was when they left. There was still a pot of herbal tea on the table that they had not finished when they left in the afternoon, and there was even some leftover food in the cup next to the teapot. Half of the tea was not poured out.

Dugu Yihe wiped his sweat and didn't reach for the teacup. Instead, he reached out and picked up the teapot, and drank from it.

As a result, before the tea was poured out, Su Shaoying snatched the teapot from his hand.

"What are you doing?" Dugu Yihe asked.

"I'm afraid it's poisonous," Su Shaoying said.

"How is that possible?" Dugu Yihe stared at Su Shaoying, looked at the teacup and then at the teapot, frowned and said, "The position of the teapot has not changed."

Su Shaoying glanced at the teacup, then opened the lid and smelled it, laughed, and poured out all the tea with her backhand, all over the wild cat who had just walked to the window.

"Meow--"

The wild cat screamed, with thorns all over its body, and flew up to the opposite roof. It barked twice viciously at Su Shaoying, and then began to comb the wet hair on its body with its tongue.

"Meow--"

As a result, the cat only licked it two or three times before it screamed miserably, then fell straight down and fell to the ground with a "bang" and became motionless.

Su Shaoying nuzzled at the poisoned wild cat, and Dugu Yihe felt a cold air rising from the soles of his feet to the back of his head.

He had just competed with Huo Tianqing in the mourning hall, was stimulated by Ximen Chuixue, and escaped safely from the rain of hidden weapons from a bunch of assassins. At this time, when he returned to the temporary residence, he was thirsty and tired.

The murderer was sure that he would drink the pot of herbal tea, so he poisoned the tea.

Dugu Yihe looked at Su Shaoying with disbelief in his eyes, "Did you guess it?"

Su Shaoying spread her hands and said, "The news that you have settled in Tianquan Temple is not a secret. I just spent a long time playing in the Pearl Palace and consumed a lot. Of course I need to drink water when I come back. Isn't this an obvious thing?"

Dugu Yihe was speechless, is it obvious?

Sending Si Xiu out, staying with him, killing four masters, retreating from Ximen Chuixue, and seeing through the teapot poison, each step was not something Su Shaoying could do before. Dugu Yihe always felt that the Su Shaoying in front of him seemed to be a different one. people.

However, Dugu Yihe could not hide his exhaustion even though he was relieved. He looked at Su Shaoying who was still very dull and couldn't help but ask, "Then what do you think he will do next?"

"The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, how could I know." Su Shaoying shook her head, "But if you want to drink water, I think the water from the Guanzhong Well is pretty good. It's ice cold and just right for relieving fever."

Dugu Yihe looked at Su Shaoying for a long time and finally sighed, "Then just drink the well water."
