Chapter Forty-One: Yu Chaoen's Assassin

Guo Nuan's carriage was speeding through the dark suburban wilderness. The ancient post road was surrounded by miserable weeds and shrubs, and the ancient pines and cypresses on both sides of the road gave off a ghostly atmosphere under the mercury moonlight.

It was already the second watch of the night, and there was no one else in the quiet suburbs except Guo Nuan and his carriage galloping on the road, making the sound of horse hooves hitting the road.

"Uh, Wan'er, we have now left the East City Gate, where are we going next?"

Guo Nuan sat down in the driver's seat of the carriage. At this moment, he carefully asked through the curtain of the carriage.

To be honest, Guo Nuan also wanted to abandon the carriage immediately and escape Kang Wan, the iceberg beauty killer, but he estimated that if he ran away, his legs might not be as fast as Kang Wan's lightness. He was not as light as Liu.

With that kind of confidence in Xiang, he might not have been able to run a few steps before he was stabbed in the back by her.

After weighing the left and right, Guo Nuan helplessly cursed in his stomach. He temporarily gave up the idea of ​​taking risks and waited for the right time to act again.

Kang Wan opened the car curtain, looked out at the rapidly retreating wild scenery around him, and said calmly to Guo Nuan's back: "Now rush to Yongning Village, which is twenty miles away from Dongwai Guocheng. Don't play any tricks, or else you will be kidnapped."

Life is not guaranteed.”

Although Guo Nuan, who was driving a carriage, could not see Kang Wan's face and expression in the carriage, the rest of her words made Guo Nuan's heart, which had calmed down a little, become anxious and uneasy again.

"No, the bushes turning ahead are murderous. Stop the car quickly."

Just when Kang Wan was about to put her head back into the car to look around, the pupils in her eyes suddenly shrank, and Leng shouted at Guo Nuan Leng who was driving the car: "Stop quickly, there is someone ambushing in front!"

Guo Nuan reacted quickly. As soon as he heard Kang Wan's words, he immediately tightened the reins of his horse and stopped the carriage barely a hundred steps away from the turning point.

I held my breath and looked at the dark bushes in the distance. Apart from the gentle swaying of the branches blown by the evening wind, there were only a few strange and loud calls of partridges coming from deep in the forest.

At this moment, the carriage was parked quietly on the post road, and the bright moonlight shone on the bodies of Guo Nuan and Kang Wan standing in the driver's seat, casting their shadows on the bluestone road, stretching long and slantingly.

"There are no human figures. It's dark in the outskirts here, and there might be ghosts." Guo Nuan heard Kang Wan's solemn tone, turned around and whispered to Kang Wan, who was cautiously drawing his sword.

"Intuition, the killer's intuition tells you."

With a sound of "镪!", Kang Wan took out the cold narrow-edged scimitar from the scabbard, and a cold light flashed through her eyes exposed by the veil.

In response to Kang Wan's answer, Guo Nuan curled her lips and muttered disapprovingly: "It's still intuitive. A killer's intuition. It's almost a woman's intuition. I'm always suspicious...but a woman's intuition."

The most unreliable, huh, for men, women are the most unreasonable and emotional animals."

Before Guo Nuan could complain more, Kang Wan pulled Guo Nuan out of the carriage and pulled her to her side. At this moment, she was staring at the dark bushes in front of her with all her concentration. Her right thumb and tiger's mouth were clasped tightly together.

The knife was guarded, and the tip of the knife was tilted across the chest and pointed forward. At this moment, Kang Wan made a defensive posture.

"If you don't want to die, just follow this girl."

Looking forward, the woman then coldly said something to Guo Nuan, who was behind her.

After all, Guo Nuan seemed to have realized that the situation was not good. It looked like Kang Wan was not joking, and he had already followed Kang Wan smartly.

If he turned around and returned to the imperial city, Guo Nuan would definitely be willing to do so, but Kang Wan would definitely not agree, so he could only rush over now.

But it seems that if there is an ambush in front of someone, it should not be the yamen officer chasing Kang Wan. After all, the yamen officer is also the legal law enforcement officer of the national security agency, and he should not hide in the dark like a killer. Guo Nuan

I saw that the officials of the Tang Dynasty were busy arresting criminals on the street, and they had to make it known all over the city. They did not have the habit of keeping a low profile.

Besides, if the government officials wanted to pursue Kang Wan, they should pursue him on the post road leading to the imperial city behind his butt. In short, Guo Nuan ruled out the possibility of an ambush by the government officials.

The cold wind blew at night, and the surrounding scenery was deep and terrifying. For some reason, the woman who raised a knife to kill Guo Nuan one moment became Guo Nuan's protective goddess the next.

At this moment, Guo Nuan's male rationality and intuition also began to take effect. He secretly realized that there was an inexplicable murderous aura ahead. As the two of them quietly and slowly moved towards the bushes at the corner, this feeling became stronger and stronger.

One hundred steps, eighty steps, fifty steps, thirty steps, the distance was getting closer and closer. Like a rabbit, he stared at any disturbance in the bushes vigilantly, and cool beads of sweat slowly began to overflow on his forehead.

Unknowingly, Guo Nuan leaned over and pressed his chest to Kang Wan's back. The two of them, who were highly focused on what was in front of them, felt this ambiguity at all.

"Wan'er, why don't we go back first? It's eerie and scary here."

Guo Nuan really couldn't stand this depressing and scary atmosphere, which was like watching a super scary Hollywood ghost movie alone in a room late at night. His nerves were stretched so tight that he almost broke. At this moment, Guo Nuan wanted to retreat, but then whispered to

Kang Wan whispered in her ear.

"Can't go back." Kang Wan replied lightly, not bothering to discuss it with Guo Nuan anymore, and motioned Guo Nuan to continue to follow her closely. The two of them moved forward ten steps, only ten steps away from the suspicious bush.

Far away.

At some point, Kang Wan took out four wild goose feather knives from her waist and quickly used her wrist strength to shoot all the hidden weapons in the bushes.

With a few whooshing sounds, several rotating knives were thrown like wild lawn mowers, immediately cutting off a large section of the bush that was half a man tall.

"Ah, ah!" Suddenly two miserable male cries came from the bushes. It was estimated that two miserable killers had died in the jungle, and then four more killers in tight black clothes jumped into the sky from the bushes.

, a lazy donkey rolled around and jumped onto the post road in embarrassment.

"Damn, there really is a killer lurking in wait!"

Two people versus four people. At this moment, everyone stood in the middle of the post road and held out their swords with hostility. The six people faced each other coldly. Guo Nuan was shocked and blurted out something. At this moment, he was hiding behind Kang Wan, holding the woman tightly.

He even refused to let go of his clothes.

"Who are you!"

Kang Wan stood in front of the wind with her sword in hand. The rustling evening breeze blew the colorful feather coat she wore when dancing, making her look heroic. She shouted at the four killers who were eyeing her with eager eyes, and she suddenly had the majestic aura of a woman who couldn't stand up to men.

"Hmph, I didn't expect Guo Nuan to have a tough guard, which caused the death of two of our brothers. Don't say we didn't make it clear. Listen up, it was our lord Yu Chaoen who sent us to kill you tonight.

It’s your death anniversary next year, so wake up!”

The leader of the killer in black, wearing a black scarf mask, uttered a cold word sullenly, and then gave an order, and the four powerful killers rushed past Guo Nuan and Guo Nuan like a gust of wind.

Guo Nuan grunted and swallowed his saliva. Hiding behind Kang Wan was undoubtedly the safest way:

Damn it, the dead eunuch Yu Chaoen wanted to kill me and I almost went crazy. As soon as I left the city gate, I met the killer he sent. It was so efficient... You must not let go now. You must stick to Kang Wan until you die. Can you?

It depends on her to see the sun tomorrow, otherwise she will die...
