Chapter 51 Night terror

After Duan Canghai entered the house, he glanced at him and saw that everyone was connected together, which changed color slightly. Then he quickly stepped forward, drew his sword and cut it down.

A knife flashed, and the arm stuck to Yang Ning was cut off from it, and blood spurted out. Duan Canghai was already holding Yang Ning's arm and quickly retreated.

From taking the knife to taking Yang Ning away, it was just a blink of an eye, and it was straightforward and decisive.

After the arm was cut off, everyone fell backwards, weak and their whole bodies were sore and weak, and they could not get up for a while.

Yang Ning was absorbing the energy of energy by itself. The energy of energy was getting smoother and smoother. The meridian line from the Qihai to the Dantian had been opened, but the rivers and seas in the Dantian were like fire. Every time a little more energy was injected, the Dantian seemed to add a handful of fire. It was so uncomfortable that I suddenly felt that the energy that poured into the Qihai point disappeared and interrupted. It came just in time. Yang Ning breathed a sigh of relief, but his whole body was already covered in sweat.

"Criminal Master, Prince Master, how are you?" Duan Canghai held Yang Ning's shoulders, and saw that Yang Ning's face was red like a monkey's butt. He was surprised and said anxiously: "What are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Yang Ning let out a few breaths, looked at Duan Canghai, came to his senses, and said, "Someone...someone wants to kill me!"

At this moment, a few more people rushed in from outside, but Qi Feng led several guards to arrive. Seeing the scene inside the house, without saying a word, they drew their swords and protected Yang Ning.

The guards of the other courtyard barely got up at this time, and their faces were pale, but the blue-clothed servant was bleeding from the broken wrist and lay motionless on the ground.

"What's going on?" Qi Feng tightly grasped the knife in his hand, glanced at one of the guards in the house, and stared at one of the guards in the other, "Why is this happening here? How do you protect the prince's safety?"

The guards in the other courtyard looked awkward at this time.

For a long time, the other courtyards have been receiving funeral teams. Because the rules are in place, those who can enter the other courtyards are noble people. The guards of the funeral team cannot enter the other courtyards. Those responsible for the internal security of the other courtyards are all guards in the other courtyards organized here.

There are not many loyal ministers and generals who can be buried in Zhongling. Sometimes they will not be received once in a few years in other courtyards, and it is quite leisure to be a member of the workplace here.

No one expected that an assassination would happen in this villa. At this moment, Qi Feng asked coldly, which made the guards of the villa very embarrassed.

"Qi Feng, control the assassin first!" Duan Canghai said in a deep voice: "After interrogation."

Qi Feng immediately stepped forward and pressed the man's neck with a big knife, raised his foot and kicked him. The man turned over and lay on the ground. Someone immediately shouted "ah" from the side, but the assassin's face was blue, his eyes were wide open, his eyes were muddy, and he had no trace of spirit, and he seemed to be dead.

Hearing footsteps outside the door, General Manager Qiu had already rushed into the room and shouted, "Criminal, Prince, how is the prince?" Seeing Duan Canghai squatting on the ground and hugging Yang Ning, he hurried over and asked, "Brother Duan, is this..."

Duan Canghai looked cold and said, "Master Qiu, there is an assassin here in the royal land, and the prince almost succeeded by the assassin."

Manager Qiu changed his color and asked anxiously: "Is the prince okay?"

Duan Canghai said: "God protects you, and the prince is in danger." His eyes turned to the assassin lying on the ground, "It seems that this assassin comes with the will of death."

Zhao Wushang did not go to see the assassin at this time, but instead walked to the table with a silver needle in his hand. First, he clicked on the snacks in the tray, and then poked the silver needle into the teacup on the table. When he picked up the silver needle, the silver needle was already black. Zhao Wushang's eyes showed a cold light and asked the guards of the other courtyards: "Is this assassin a servant in the other courtyard?"

"No." The only guard in the villa who had not been sucked away his internal strength and still had energy immediately said: "The villa has less than 20 people, and everyone is familiar with him. The assassin is definitely not a person in the villa."

"What happened?" A man came in outside, and his clothes were not in order. General Manager Qiu took a look and recognized that he was the manager of the other courtyard. He was a small official of the Ministry of Rites. He had had communication and contact before. He came forward and frowned and said, "Manager Wu, an assassin broke in from the other courtyard. Our prince almost encountered an accident. Do you have anything to say?"

Although General Manager Qiu did not have an official position, he was the chief manager of the Jinyi Marquis' Mansion. His status was not inferior to a small official of the Ministry of Rites. In addition, Yang Ning almost encountered an unexpected situation, so he spoke a little rudely.

Manager Wu's face turned pale in an instant, and he said in a lost voice: "Assassin?" He rushed forward and saw the guards of the other courtyard standing dejectedly standing beside each other, like frost-beating eggplant, and was weak at first glance. He looked at Qi Feng squatting on the ground and checking the assassin lying on his back. His face was even more ugly. He was panicked and shouted at the guards of the other courtyard: "How do you... how do you guard the other courtyard? How did this assassin come in?"

Qi Feng looked up at Duan Canghai and said, "Brother Duan, you guessed it right. The assassin has the will to die. He just died of poison by himself, so we will not live."

"I died by swallowing poison because I was afraid that we would ask the real murderer behind the scenes." Duan Canghai sneered: "If I was not wrong and instructed him, we should know the one who told him." He added: "At least it is not a Northern Han."

Zhao Wushang said: "The assassin should have just wanted to poison the prince at first, but for some reason he still took action later."

Qi Feng looked at Manager Wu and sneered: "Manager Wu, this villa is under your jurisdiction. The assassin not only entered the villa, but also changed into the clothes of servants in the villa, and even brought snacks and tea to the prince's room. But you didn't notice it at all. If the court knew about this, I would really worry for you."

Manager Wu's face was no longer bloody. Of course, he knew that such a big thing could never be hidden. The prince of Jinyi had a noble status and was really dead here. I was afraid that everyone in the other courtyard would be buried with him. Even if he was just in danger, it would never be so easy to be good. He, a sesame official, would naturally not be able to protect him.

It was inevitable to be punished afterwards. He just hoped that the punishment would be lighter. At this time, he should show his attitude to cooperate with the Marquis of Jinyi's Mansion as much as possible, and immediately ordered: "Kitchen, by the way, go and see the kitchen."

The guards also knew that the matter was of great importance, so someone had already quickly gone to the kitchen.

"This...this is very powerful." A guard in the villa said with lingering fear: "He has evil kung fu, and we...when we touch him, our strength will be sucked away."

These guards only knew that the power of touching the assassin leaked, but they did not know that the assassin was just a conductor, and the power eventually flowed into Yang Ning's body.

"Yes, this person is very evil. We have never heard of this kung fu..." Someone next to him immediately echoed.

Duan Canghai asked Zhao Wushang: "Can you see the origin of this assassin?"

Zhao Wushang circled around the assassin, picked the assassin with the tip of the knife, and shook his head and said, "This kind of person specializes in assassination to make a living and collect cash to trade. There are many such assassins in the world who do things neatly and are very experienced and will not leave any clues. If they succeed, they will disappear from now on and it will be difficult to find clues. Once they fail, they will often die and will not leave any clues."

Duan Canghai nodded slightly and sneered, "The assassination actually assassinated our Prince Jinyi. Even if he goes to the sky and goes into the sea, he will find out the real murderer behind the scenes." He ordered, "The prince is frightened, don't stay here. Carry out the corpse first and clean up..." He asked Yang Ning, "Prince, do you want to change the place?"

Yang Ning shook his head and said, "I...I'm fine."

Suddenly, he heard footsteps and looked at the kitchen guards in the other yard and reported, "Lao Qiu in the kitchen was killed and his clothes were stripped."

Manager Wu told General Qiu: "It seems that the assassin sneaked into the villa, killed the people in the kitchen first, and then pretended to come over."

Manager Qiu said angrily: "How did the assassin sneak in? This villa is not big, and there are people guarding the front and back doors. How could he sneak in?"

Zhao Wushang suddenly said, "This assassin killed the people in the kitchen first, then pretended to be a servant, and was able to avoid the eyes and ears of others in the other courtyard and easily find the prince's place. It was obviously a matter of knowing the layout of the other courtyard." After a pause, he said, "Even we cannot enter the other courtyard easily, and naturally no one can enter without authorization on weekdays. How is the assassin so familiar with the other courtyard?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Manager Wu's face turned even more ugly, and the guards in the other courtyard looked at each other.

"We have no one here to collude with the assassin." Manager Wu of course heard what Zhao Wushen said and immediately defended: "If you don't believe it, you can review it one by one."

"I mean, the person who instructs the assassin must be very familiar with the layout of the other courtyard." Zhao Wushang's face was as expressionless as a cold and hard stone, and said lightly: "You are not the only one who is familiar with the layout of the other courtyard. Anyone who entered the other courtyard before this may be involved with the assassin."

General Manager Qiu nodded slightly and said, "That's true, this matter must not be easily resolved. Assassinating the prince, he is bold and must be investigated in detail."

Everyone carried the body out, and someone cleaned up the house. Because of this incident, Qi Feng and Zhao Wushang did not leave the other courtyard again and guarded outside Yang Ning's door. Although the rules of the other courtyard had been broken, the situation was special, so Manager Wu naturally didn't even dare to let go.

General Manager Qiu and Duan Canghai helped Yang Ning sit down. Seeing that Yang Ning's face was still red, he glanced at each other. General Manager Qiu asked carefully: "Criminal, are you still feeling uncomfortable? Why don't you send someone to find a doctor?"

Yang Ning shook his head and said, "Mr. Qiu, go and do it first. I have nothing to do, so don't worry."

Manager Qiu nodded slightly and then stepped back. When Manager Qiu left, Duan Canghai said softly: "Criminal, are you feeling very uncomfortable in your body?"

"Ah?" Yang Ning glanced at Duan Canghai. At this moment, the qi and blood were still rolling in his dantian. Although the burning sensation of fire was weakened a lot, the entire abdominal cavity was still feeling tight, and his heart was beating rapidly, much faster than usual.
