Chapter 22, the first round of assassination
The function of the body protection pendant is to protect the host. In most cases, he can take the initiative to defend himself. Sometimes he will respond to the host's mood and make some special reactions. The higher the strength of the magic weapon, the higher the intelligence of the magic weapon.
For example, Su Chen, in the Tianchu incident, controlled the power of the jade pendant and grabbed the butler's neck.
Taoist Haiyan told him that once spiritual power is poured into the jade pendant, he can use it to perform spiritual skills. Su Chen immediately thought of the national master. At that time, the national master used the power of the jade pendant to repel the black dragon.
But Su Chen has no spiritual power, so he has to borrow some from Taoist Haiyan every day. Once released, it will become invalid and will become invalid over time.
That day, Su Chen had just gone to Taoist Haiyan to borrow spiritual power when he encountered something.
Xianglan took an invitation letter to him, saying that the general of Yecheng invited the two young men to hunt on Bull Mountain.
"I can't help but start."
Su Chen sneered in his heart. He deliberately hid in the royal palace these days and did not go out because he was afraid that the princess would attack him. Now they couldn't wait and began to take the initiative.
"Young Master, is this a trap? You'd better not go there."
Xianglan worried.
"You can tell it's a trap, how could I jump, but I guess they have a backhand, so there must be a way to force me to go."
Su Chen mosuied the jade pendant on his chest, thinking that since he became a young master, his thinking became more and more active, especially after knowing that the King of Xizhou was secretly protecting him, he also became more and more confident.
As he expected, the little prince came to visit in person after a moment, saying that he was going out to hunt with the general, which was the rule set by the King of Xizhou. He had to go to Bull Mountain for winter hunting at this time of year. If he didn't go, he would violate the rules of his father.
Su Chen had no choice but to respond.
At noon, Su Chen was wearing armor, armed from head to toe, and every piece of skin was blocked tightly.
When he appeared in the hunting ground, the general and others laughed.
"This second young master is more interesting than I thought."
The little prince laughed and said, "Don't say I didn't remind you, there are tigers on Bull Mountain. If you wear this outfit, it will probably affect your escape, hahaha..."
Tiger? Su Chen was stunned and had a bad premonition.
After the hunting began, Su Chen chased a fox for a long time. When there was no one, he stopped and took a nap under a huge rock. He didn't have to think about it and knew that the fox was bait. He was close to danger when he chased him, so he was too lazy to chase him. He just acted for the little prince to show it.
Sure enough, the fox ran around and ran to the hands of a black-clad beast trainer, and there was a trap paved with dead leaves in front of them.
"It seems that this second young master is not as stupid as he looks on the surface."
Su Chen took off his tight armor, exposed his head and arms, thinking about his next plan. Although he was the second young master, he could not fight with the princess openly, and could only use his father's secret protection and wisdom to take advantage of his wisdom. However, the most important thing at the moment is how to make the princess give up the idea of assassinating him. Only by letting go of his military skills can he have an equal chance of fighting.
Just as he was thinking a lot, a drop of blood dripped from the huge rock above his head, which fell on the palm of his hand. When he looked up, his hair was so scared that he stood up all over his body.
A black tiger, taller than him, appeared silently on the rock, and was looking down at him with a huge tiger head, grinning, looking at him seriously, you could still find the meat residue left between the sharp teeth. Obviously, it had just been meaty.
Su Chen was so scared that he instinctively stepped back, sat on the ground, looking at the black tiger on the huge rock in fear.
The black tiger is different from the ordinary tiger he knows. It is not only huge in size, but also covered with black and golden patterns. The most important thing is that the black tiger's eyes are dark red and there is a single horn between its forehead.
Thinking that he hadn't put on his helmet, he hurriedly picked up the helmet beside him and prepared to hold it on his head.
At this moment, another tiger head stuck out behind him, and his sharp fangs were only a thread away from his neck.
Click—
The black tiger bit it silently, but found that it was biting on the ice.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of Jade Plow to take the initiative to defend, Su Chen bounced up suddenly, retreated to the side, and distanced himself from the two black tigers.
Su Chen was obviously scared by the scene just now, and breathed heavily, then thought of Yuzhun, and felt a little relieved.
At this time, he found that black tigers kept appearing from all directions, surrounding him.
He swallowed, stroked the jade pendant on his chest, and prayed that the jade pendant could hold it defensively.
Ao--
The black tiger on the rock took the lead in attacking, and then all the black tigers rushed forward.
This time, Su Chen did not cover his head with his hands, but opened his eyes and watched the black tigers snatch over the whole process. At the same time, he held the jade pendant with one hand and the other hand, holding the bow used for hunting, and was ready to deal with emergencies.
At first, the black tigers just snatched, but were blocked by the ice shield formed by white light. After a round of attack, they all closed their mouths, as if comforting their injured teeth.
Immediately afterwards, a flute sound came, and they seemed to have received some command and began to change their attack methods.
Su Chen wanted to check the source of the flute sound, but he didn't find it after a round of inspection. Although he had already predicted it, he still didn't expect that there was a capable person under the princess who could control the black tiger.
Suddenly, the black tigers showed their sharp claws and attacked again. This time, Su Chen noticed a strange thing. The black tigers were so fast that they could only see vague ghosts. Many times he could only see vague ghosts.
Gradually, Su Chen could not see the movements of the black tiger, and only felt countless black shadows rushing around him, and the sounds of claws passing through the ice were heard one after another.
Although the ice shield is hard, the black tigers do not choose to fight head-on, but gently stroke it, which reduces the pressure on the claws and allows them to exert their speed to the extreme.
Su Chen was amazed that such a subtle attack method must be guided by humans. It seemed that the trainer in the secret was very smart.
As the black tiger's speed is getting faster and faster and the frequency of attacks is getting denser, Su Chen has given up looking with his eyes.
Suddenly, the armor on his back was torn apart, revealing his skin. He was frightened at the beginning, and then the armor on his right leg was torn apart.
The active defense of Jade Pendant has the limits of speed and frequency. He suddenly recalled his trip to Mingshan. At that time, the black dragon swooped down at a very fast speed. Xue Yao was still seriously injured while having Jade Pendant.
It seems that the other party has mastered the shortcomings of the protective magic weapon and has specially set up this trap.
Su Chen no longer hesitated and was about to use the trump card given to him by Taoist Haiyan. At the same time, there were a few cracks on his armor.
Su Chen muttered a string of spells, and the jade pendant emitted a dazzling white light, and then the white light turned into two wings on his back.
He jumped up suddenly, gently shaking his wings, and his whole body immediately flew out like a feather arrow. He was so scared that he closed his eyes. When he opened it again, he found that he was already above Bull Mountain.
That day, he spent most of his day in Haiyan Taoist Hospital, practicing this spiritual technique, Yan Guo Wuhen.
According to Taoist Haiyan, thirty-six strategies, running is the best strategy, so he taught him a spiritual method of escape. As long as he found that the situation was wrong, he would run away immediately.
Su Chen controlled his wings and flew back to the royal palace. As soon as he landed in his yard, his spiritual power was exhausted.
Xianglan Ben was taking care of the flowerbed behind the yard. Suddenly, he heard the movement. He ran to the front of the house and looked at it. He said in surprise: "Young Master, have you gone hunting? Why are you back so soon?"
While taking off my armor, Su Chen replied: "Luckily, I wore armor today, otherwise my life would be out of danger."
Xianglan was a little confused. After taking the armor, she found that there were many cracks and said in surprise: "Young Master, are you going to fight?"
Su Chen did not explain much to her and hurried to the Haiyan Taoist yard.
By then, Taoist Haiyan was already at the gate of the courtyard.
"I noticed someone flew into the palace from the air, and thought it must be you."
Su Chen hurriedly told the story.
After thinking about it, Taoist Haiyan said seriously: "It seems that there are experts on the princess' side who are giving guidance. Even if you don't send out a master, you can deal with you. Although I teach you that Yan Guo Wuhen can deal with it, you will try not to go out in the near future."
Su Chen nodded, thinking that it seemed that he would be pretending to be sick for a while.
After returning to his yard, Su Chen began to regret it. With his background, it was indeed not a good choice to fight head-on with the princess. His behavior that day seemed to be too extreme, so he should plan and take a closer look.
At this time, in the princess's courtyard.
"What! He flew away! A bunch of waste!"
The princess was furious. In front of her, the black-clothed beast trainer knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and was frightened.
At this time, the middle-aged man in gray who was standing aside touched the stubble on his chin and said, "It seems that this Su Chen was prepared for a long time. Even if the ambush failed, he could not blame the black shadow."
The black shadow in his mouth was the beast trainer kneeling at this moment.
The princess held her breath and calmed down and said in a low voice: "Go." The black-clothed beast trainer was as if he had received a general amnesty and hurriedly retreated.
The princess looked at the distressed little prince and said coldly: "Your layout has failed. It is probably not easy to deceive him out in the future."
The little prince slapped the table beside him and said ruthlessly: "At worst, I can do something in the mansion! When he dies, I don't believe that my father will kill me for him. At most, I will be punished. Compared to the insults my mother received, the sons' ministers are all trivial matters."
The princess responded: "Don't be reckless. It may be the first time we met an opponent. We were caught off guard. Don't have a quarrel with your father for a sinister species. Su Chen has just recovered his identity. Your father feels a little guilty about him. It is inevitable that he will want to make up for it. After a few days, I will be free to cure him!"
