Chapter 90 The Dead

Chapter 90 Dead Soldier

The footsteps paused outside the door, and suddenly the door was pushed open. Then with a muffled groan, the fire broke out and the sound of the steel knife entering the flesh was clearly heard. Wei Hei's knife was fast in his hand, and one of them had been solved in a moment. Wei Bai coughed and signaled Cao Yong to not come out, and then rushed out.

There were a lot of shadows in the courtyard, and there were about five or six people coming, who surrounded the Wei brothers and fought each other.

Another person, who was not involved in the fight at all, came straight into the house. Suddenly, he noticed someone behind the door and slashed his sword.

Cao Yong's body flashed slightly to avoid the opponent's attack. The blade slashed on the door frame, and wood chips splattered everywhere. The man pulled out his knife and wanted to attack again. Cao Yong had already raised his right foot, hit the man's wrist, and kicked his knife down.

The sound of the steel knife falling to the ground was particularly harsh at midnight. The Wei brothers were worried that Cao Yong wanted to come here, but they were so entangled that they could not escape, so they had to let go of their hands and feet to fight so that they could get out as soon as possible.

The man saw that Cao Yong had no swords in his hand, so he did not take him seriously. He stared at Cao Yong from the corner of his eyes and leaned over to the ground to pick up the knife. Cao Yong took the opportunity to sway his left hand and waved his right hand to the man's neck. The man heard that his palm was weak and he didn't care, so he turned his head slightly. Unexpectedly, there was a dagger hidden in Cao Yong's right sleeve. The dagger penetrated the back of his neck and was stuck in the gap between his flesh and blood.

The man felt pain and roared angrily, ignoring the dagger behind his neck, and slashed at Cao Yong with a murderous intent.

Instead of dodging, Cao Yong rushed into the man's arms quickly, grabbed his hand holding the knife, turned around and tied his arm behind him, and didn't even struggle and kick the man, quickly pulled out the dagger that was stuck in the back of his neck, and then stumbled upwards.

With a "puff" sound, a blood spurted out of the man's throat, and the dagger passed by.

The man stood there as if he was stationary. With the sound of "puzzling" and "puzzling" falling to the ground, Wei Hei and Wei Bai ended the battle.

Wei Hei rushed to Cao Yong, glanced at the man, stabbed him with the tip of a knife, and the man fell straight to the ground, and he was already dead.

Cao Yong was also as if he had been stationary. Seeing that killing was completely different from killing himself. He took a few deep breaths, calmed down his rapidly beating heart, and barely nodded to the Wei brothers, indicating that he was fine.

When the Wei brothers saw him, they remembered that when they killed someone for the first time, they were more nervous than fear, and then they felt a little powerless. In terms of calmness, they were actually not as good as Cao Yong.

Wei Hei pulled out a dagger from the man's neck, wiped it clean with the clothes of the corpse, and handed it back to Cao Yong: "Young leader, I left a living outside, let's ask carefully!"

Cao Yong nodded, took the dagger calmly and put it back in his arms. No one knew that he was already in a state of calmness. When he used the dagger to penetrate the enemy's throat, he was horrified to find something, that is, from the beginning of the fight, his heart was full of murderous intent. I don't know whether it was because they almost hurt Cao Song, or because they recognized the figure of this man, who was the person who assassinated Wu Liji on the grassland. Perhaps subconsciously, he had already regarded this man as a time bomb that endangered his life. After all, this man's accomplices had tracked Wen Xiu across the road and might have stared at him secretly.

When they walked towards what Wei Hei said, they were still disappointed. Although in order to prevent the man from hiding poison pills in his teeth or committing suicide by biting his tongue, Wei Hei had already removed the man's chin, but unexpectedly, he made another dagger and stabbed himself in his heart.

The Wei brothers all looked solemn. It would not be scary if they were ordinary thugs. But seeing that these people are good at the moment, they have no idea of ​​greed for life. This is a "death soldier" trained by special people.

Holding the fire note, Wei Hei flipped over several corpses, flipped two brass signs on the two corpses, and handed them to Cao Yong immediately.

Cao Yong couldn't help but hold his mouth in the corner, and became the guard in front of the imperial court and the attendant of the Sixteenth Prince. He was very familiar with the waist cards of the official residences of the major royal palaces inside and outside the palace. These two pieces were the waist cards on the Eighth Prince's Mansion.

Seeing Cao Yong laughing, Wei Bai knew that he knew him, and hurriedly said, "You are the boss, you can't take this thing seriously! Who would take this trick with you when doing things? There are so many such things in the world. When you go out to do business, you will bring your enemies' weapons. Even if you don't have the ability to do it, throw that guy in the open and dark places, and the disaster will be brought to the enemy."

Wei Hei nodded: "These two of you just fought with me, and they are the worst kung fu among these people. Obviously, they are not sure of getting back from their bodies. Just bring this brand and once they die here, they can frame them."

Cao Yong couldn't help but sympathize with the "virtuous king". I don't know how many things are waiting for him. "The wood is so beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." This sentence seems to be good. The eighth prince is also unlucky because his reputation as "virtuous". Whether it is the crown prince or other princes who are concerned about the crown prince, they are afraid that they will not be able to tolerate this brother.

The murder of Prince Wuliji on the grassland was exposed. On the contrary, the prince took the blame, but the suspicion in secret was led to the eighth prince, who had always been against the prince. No matter who died, the person would reap the profit. This time the Cao family encountered a gunpowder attack. If the matter was successful, it would cause trouble for the Cao family. Maybe they could take advantage of the situation. If the matter failed, you can know that it was the name of this brand, and that person would also find a way to make the eighth prince get fishy.

The fight in the yard just now caused the nearby dogs to bark, but it was midnight and there was a home for ordinary people nearby. Even if someone noticed something was wrong, who would have the courage to come out to check it out?

Cao Yong and the Wei brothers asked what they wanted to know, but they ignored the two rascals.

Five people came to those killers. Wei Hei was determined to burn the corpse and destroy the traces, but it was the end of October, and the sky was dry. If it caused a fire, it would cause harm to the nearby people. He checked and slashed several times at the wound where Cao Yong killed the man. He felt that there was no mistake anymore, so he nodded to Cao Yong.

The three of them quickly left and sank into the boundless night.

According to the inspection by the Wei brothers, there were constables from Shuntian Mansion on duty day and night at the front and back of the Cao Mansion, and also the intention to protect the Cao family. After all, if the person who bought the evil is not found out for a day, the safety of the Cao family will not be guaranteed. However, Cao Yong was not worried that they would find out that he would go out because they did not plan to enter and exit the gate in the middle of the night.

When he returned to the Kuiyuan and lay on the bed, Cao Yong widened his eyes and looked at the curtain of the bed. He actually killed someone!!! Moreover, he did not hesitate at all, and he did not regret it after killing him. Before he knew it, he slowly integrated into this society. Although he was just a small person in his previous life and would not keep the so-called "fairness and justice", he never thought that he would kill someone one day. He was indescribable powerlessness and sourness in his heart. It was not easy to live comfortably and freely in this backward and unhealthy world.

The room was silent and forced, and Cao Yong suddenly felt lonely. Since he was drunk and talked nonsense last time, he has not allowed him to stay in the room for the night, so he is the only one of the empty houses.

The next day, Cao Yong did not get up as early as usual.

The leave note that Cao Yong handed to the master of Shangshu has been approved a few days ago. The reason for taking care of his frightened younger brother and sister was sufficient. With the signature of Prince Ping, Shangshu gave him three days off.

At the age of Mao (6 o'clock in the morning), Amethyst brought Zhuer and Cuier to the upper room, and served Cao Yong as before.

"What's the smell in the house? How weird!" Zhu'er had always been outspoken, muttering quietly while lighting the incense burner.

Cao Yong just pretended that he didn't hear it, but his face turned red without notice. After coming back in the middle of the night, he thought for a long time and fell asleep in a daze until Chouchu (3 o'clock in the morning). Then, he dreamed endlessly. First, he dreamed and killed, all kinds of murderous scenes. He became a killer and guest in the Warring States Period and assassinated the monarchs of other countries; sometimes he became a counselor and general in the Three Kingdoms period, and wanted to take his life; sometimes he became a bandit who occupied the mountain and became the king, and led his help minions to block the road to rob. Then, there was a lot of dreams, and hey, and the taste was indescribable.

Although Amethyst is her daughter's house, she is older. When she saw Cao Yong's expression, she knew what she wanted. She sent Zhu'er and Cui'er to find the woman to take a bath. When the two of them went out, she found a clean set of underwear and handed it to Cao Yong, and turned around.

Cao Yong's face turned redder. He quickly changed his clothes in the quilt, rolled the dirty ones into a ball, hesitated for a moment, took out a cloth bag from under the bed, put it on one piece, and handed it to Amethyst: "When there is no one, find a place to burn it!"

Amethyst took care of Cao Yong's daily life, and he personally handled the clothes, shoes and socks around him, but he had never seen this cloth bag before. She wanted to ask, but when she saw Cao Yong getting out of bed with his shoes, she didn't want to say anything anymore, she didn't speak.

After a while, Zi Jing asked, "Uncle, you can't stay in the room without leaving anyone. Among the four of Zhuer and the others, you can choose someone who is in harmony and stay in the room! If you drink a tea in the middle of the night, someone will need to be used."

The maid in the room or the person in the room? Zijing asked this question at this moment, forcing Cao Yong to go to a wrong place.

Zhu'er and Cui'er were personally selected by Li in the southern palace. They not only looked good, but also had a gentle temperament. In her opinion, these two should be ideal candidates for their son's concubine to live in a family. They are honest and honest, and they will not cause trouble for the family and family in the future because of the fact that they are fond of favor.

Chai'er and Huan'er were chosen by Cao Zhong's family. I'm afraid they also want to choose a house for the little master, and they both look very neat.

There are many maids who want to be concubines, but there are still maids who don’t want to be concubines. Even Chai'er is one. Since she entered Kuiyuan, she has become a model of being cautious in words and deeds, and she will not easily make do with Cao Yong. She really can’t avoid it, and she just buried her head in doing things and will never joke. Invisibly, she is guarding against Cao Yong like a pervert.

Cao Yong lived for two lifetimes, how could this little girl hide her thoughts? Sometimes, she also felt ridiculous. Her kind-hearted look was not like a pervert?

Huan'er is the best among the people, but she is the youngest, only thirteen years old, and she always speaks childishly, and she still doesn't understand the affairs of men and women.

What are you doing when you are thinking about these things? Cao Yong woke up and shook his head quickly: "Farewell, it's okay now!"
