Elf Archer of Life in Another World
Chapter 273 The Devil Is Punished
"Catch the assassin!"
"Catch the assassin! The king has been killed!"
"The killer! The killer is up there!"
There was a commotion of people coming from far away, but in the blink of an eye, someone had already spotted Nian Nian standing on the roof, and waved his long arm.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Several scimitars flew out, drawing arcs of light like silver hooks, pointing directly at Nian Nian's head.
The three of them looked at the dozens of palace guards swarming around them and heard the noise of people in the distance, mixed with the shrill cries of women. They both broke into a cold sweat for Nian Nian and couldn't help but complain.
Year after year of recklessness.
Even if you are killing people, you should do it cleanly and neatly, right? At least don't make people scream again and again, right?
Nian Nian ducked down to avoid the flying knife. He was about to stand up. He suddenly paused and sank down again. He tilted his head slightly. When he saw the silver knife light whirling back in the air, he immediately rolled to his side and avoided it.
The scimitar that flew back also escaped a hail of arrows. She ducked and wanted to jump to another roof. She focused her eyes and stepped aside, and then she managed to avoid the oncoming arrow.
A scimitar.
I have a headache every year.
The architectural style here is different from the kind of house with a sloping ridge. In addition to the semicircular vault, it is an open-air flat roof. No one can climb up the vault and stand firmly, so she can only stand on the flat roof.
Running and jumping around, although it is flexible and convenient to hide from attacks, it is also very convenient to catch those who attack her.
Nian Nian glanced down and found more guards on the ground, and secretly pouted. This palace is so small, and the guards arrived too quickly.
Nian Nian had already seen Shi Sui, Song Qing and Zheng Qi, but she also knew that she was guilty now, so she pretended not to have seen them.
More and more guards rushed to the roof. Nian Nian gritted his teeth and put his right hand on the quiver on his waist. Only then did he realize that he was still holding something in his hand. He was stunned for a moment until he caught the attack from the corner of his eye.
The arrow flashed, and he couldn't dodge for a moment. He was hit by an arrow in the left shoulder, and the entire arrow was immersed in his flesh and blood.
The next second, blood splashed, and Niannian pulled out the sharp arrow with barbs with his backhand, jumped off the roof with a fish leap, and just jumped to Song Qing's side. He pinched Song Qing's neck with his left hand and threw the arrow, hitting the nearest person in the middle.
Guarding his chest, he loosened his teeth, grabbed a long hairpin that he had just bit into his mouth, and pressed it against the blood vessels of Song Qing's neck.
Nian Nian used his left hand hard and pulled Song Qing back a few steps. He pressed his back against the cold stone pillar. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the guards who were gradually surrounding him. The hairpin on his right hand was moved inwards again, drawing a shallow line.
of blood stains.
It only took three or four seconds from the time when Nian Nian was hit by an arrow to when Song Qing was caught. The next wave of arrows guarded on the roof just then landed on the flat roof that Nian Nian had just jumped off. Nian Nian heard the rain of arrows.
Wuxiao pulled Songqing inward again, but Songqing didn't move at all, and his back always kept a slight distance from Niannian's chest.
There was silence in the small courtyard for a moment.
Nian Nian's eyes kept moving, vigilantly scanning the guards upstairs and downstairs and the weapons in their hands. Shi Sui and Zheng Qi looked at each other. Both of them were a little unable to react at this time, especially not seeing clearly how Song Qing fell.
In their hands every year. They just
Caidu was looking up to pay attention to the battle on the roof, and his ears were filled with all kinds of shouts and curses. No one paid attention to the actions of the people around him. Songqing, on the other hand, stiffened his neck, smiled bitterly at the two of them, and turned his gaze after a moment.
It fell on those guards.
Shi Sui frowned and was about to speak when Zheng Qi spoke first: "Everyone, wait a minute! If our envoys make any mistakes here, it will be difficult for us, the accompanying soldiers, to explain to my pilgrims and all the civil and military officials!
"
Shi Sui raised his eyebrows, shifted his position slightly, and stood half a step behind Zheng Qi. According to the background of the game, Zheng Qi is a general, Song Qing is an official, and he is just a businessman. It is indeed more appropriate for Zheng Qi to speak here.
.
Zheng Qi usually greets people with a smile, but now his face is serious and his posture is upright. Although there is a smile at the corner of his mouth, there is a knife hidden in the smile, showing off his sharp edge.
A man from the palace guard immediately stood up. He first saluted Zheng Qi solemnly, then turned to face Nian Nian and shouted: "Let go of Hu Shen's distinguished guest quickly, and we will definitely save you from death!"
There was silence in the small courtyard again. Everyone saw Nian Nian's eyes rolled, and Song Qing stared at this man speechlessly.
The man suddenly felt embarrassed and looked around, as if he wanted to find someone who could take over his job.
"If you let me go, I will ensure that this person does not die." Nian Nian lost his hurry and said lazily.
"this......"
The guards hesitated, seemingly not wanting to let Nian Nian go so easily. Suddenly, there were messy footsteps approaching from behind. The guard who stood out turned around and looked overjoyed. He saluted excitedly to the people who came in a hurry, lowered his head and looked away.
He hid in a corner of the small courtyard and handed over the task of confronting the despicable gangsters to several old ministers who came over.
Nian Nian repeated his request and looked at the bearded old men in front of him jokingly.
These old ministers simply waved the guards to exit the small courtyard. Then they stared at Nian Nian coldly and said: "We are not afraid of you. Your life is not as good as our king, nor as noble as Hu Shen."
Guest, we let you go today, but God Hu will definitely punish you in the future and burn your soul with the fire of hell!"
Nian Nian shrugged nonchalantly: "Come on, let's punish him. I just wanted to chat with him, so I'll give him a slap in the face."
"You! You ungodly sinner! You will not die well!" The old minister was trembling with anger at Nian Nian's words and pointed at Nian Nian with a slight trembling.
Nian Nian no longer wanted to talk nonsense with these people, so she identified the direction and pulled Song Qing to the west. She had slipped in through the west palace wall, and she had the impression that there was a gate there.
As soon as his toes took a step toward the west, Nian Nian raised his foot and kicked Song Qing's calf, shouting in a low voice: "Go! If you don't go, I'll stab you to death!"
The person who noticed this pause was Sui raised his head and looked at Songqing, but only saw a helpless and bitter face. He turned his head and looked at the direction in which Nian was retreating. East? Where is the east?
To the east is a high platform, and below it is a calm lake. The lake is endless and the depth of the lake is unfathomable.
Standing on the edge of the high platform, Nian Nian lowered his head and took a quick glance. Fortunately, it was not too high, only about ten meters.
But... Nian Nian's left hand tightened around Song Qing's neck, and he gnashed his teeth and muttered: "What the hell is this place!"
As Nian Nian retreated, the guards and ministers of the palace chased him, but always kept a distance of twenty steps from Nian Nian, so as not to provoke Nian Nian and hurt others. As Nian Nian got closer and closer to the edge of the platform, the faces of these people
His joy became increasingly difficult to conceal.
"Humph! It's indeed God Hu who has blessed you! You are asking for your own death!" The old minister, who had just been trembling with anger, was proud of himself and stroked his gray beard with his hand.
Although this is not actually the case, Niannian actually feels that what he said makes sense.
She moved her right hand and put a hairpin on Song Qing's Adam's apple as if to pick it. Song Qing was so shocked that she shouted: "Don't pull me! Don't pull me! I'm going to fall! I can't swim!"
Who pulled you? Besides, if you want to fall, I should fall first, right?
Nian Nian was confused. She lowered her head and suddenly felt a sharp impact on her ribs on the left side. The pain was so painful that she couldn't help but bend over. She subconsciously pressed the painful spot with her left hand, and the gold hairpin on her right hand also left Song Qing's skin.
Song Qing immediately turned around and raised his hand to grab Nian Nian's shoulder. Nian Nian blocked Nian Nian's shoulder with his right hand. The force of the block was strong even though his ribs were hurting, and it knocked Song Qing's arm away.
But for some reason, Song Qing's palm just touched Nian Nian's ear and swung it out. His fingertips directly lifted the hood of Nian Nian's cloak, revealing a pair of pointed long elf ears, the tips of the ears still trembling slightly.
"Elf! Evil elf!"
"This is the devil! The enemy of God Hu!"
Every year, she heard the exclamations from the crowd not far away. It was an exclamation mixed with fear and panic, but she had no time to care because she had already fallen off the high platform.
"thump!"
Song Qing's outstretched arm was still stuck in mid-air. It seemed that he was trying to hold Nian Nian but failed in time. His right foot had already stepped on the edge of the platform, and he looked in danger.
Songqing listened to the stupid exclamations of the Kawali philosophers behind her, and the sound of prayers came from a trance. She silently took back her right foot that had just tripped over Nian Nian. It seemed that she could still see her face in disbelief before her eyes.
Song Qing turned around, smiled slightly at Shi Sui, ignored Zheng Qi's questioning eyes, walked up to the old minister with a worried look, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I couldn't catch her."
"It's okay, it's okay, I've shocked our distinguished guest, please forgive our negligence."
Seeing that Song Qing was still sighing with regret, the minister smiled and said to soothe his heart that had just been beating violently:
"What the distinguished guests don't know is that this Mulite Lake is a sacred lake gifted by God Hu. Any creature that falls into it will definitely die, but the water flowing from the sacred lake to the city is clear and delicious. As soon as this devil showed up, he was
God Hu punishes you, you are indeed the most distinguished guest invited by God Hu, you have brought us good luck, and we, Hawarizhe, are grateful."
As soon as these words came out, Shi Sui's face suddenly changed. Zheng Qi didn't care and continued to stare at Song Qing. The two of them took out the communication talisman at the same time, looked at the person's level that had not changed, silently put the talisman away, and spoke again
Without saying anything, Song Qing moved his eyes slightly, taking in the calm faces of the two of them.
"It's not easy to calculate, right? I just arrived in Khawarizhe today, and the king was killed and suffered a tragedy. I am also very sad." Song Qing didn't have any joy on his face and sighed deeply.
"Haha, distinguished guest, don't worry. My king just suffered some superficial injuries and must have woken up by now." The old minister smiled broadly and was pleased that Song Qing cared about their king.
"Not dead? What's wrong? How's it going?" Song Qing's face changed slightly and he asked anxiously.
Shi Sui and Zheng Qi looked at each other, and both saw the same question in each other's eyes: Every year, there are still people who can't be killed?
Could it be...
"Alas, today is the wedding day of my king and the nineteenth princess. Unexpectedly, the devil came to the world, sneaked into the palace, knocked out my king, and stabbed my king and princess. Fortunately, God bless me, God bless me.
"
The old minister shook his head and sighed, bowed his head and said, "I would like to ask you to condescend to me and take a rest in the side hall. I think that after my king wakes up, he will definitely want to thank you personally."
Song Qing nodded with a smile and followed the old minister, but the hands in his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists.
Since no one was chasing them away, Shi Sui and Zheng Qi followed the group and watched Song Qing chatting and laughing with the local ministers.
"What is he doing?" Zheng Qi frowned and asked the person next to him quietly.
"I just want to know what Nian Nian did." Shi Sui replied calmly.
Zheng Qi gathered his mind and began to sort out the scene just now.
"Hairpin, stabbing, princess." Zheng Qi said.
"Where, why, for whom." Shi Sui nodded.
"It's a pity that he didn't die."
"Fortunately, he's not dead."
The two looked at each other and smiled, then followed everyone into the side hall.
In the side hall, a little girl about ten years old was lying on a low table and crying loudly. When she heard the old ministers talking, she quickly raised her head and looked at the people who entered the hall. She shivered and used random words.
She touched her face with her sleeves, and her crying immediately turned into weak sobs.
Looking at the little girl's red eyes and messy clothes and hair, Song Qing said softly with a look of pity on her face: "Such a big thing happened in the palace. It must have scared the princess, right?"
"Princess?"
The old ministers were all stunned and looked at Song Qing's gaze. They all looked embarrassed. Song Qing, who knew he had said something wrong, was also speechless for a moment.
"This must be the Nineteenth Princess, right? I have overstepped my bounds, please forgive me, and we will leave now."
Zheng Qi looked at the bright red dress on the girl's body and the golden embroidery all over it. He straightened his waist and bowed, glanced at Song Qing, who had an ugly face, and turned around to go out of the side hall gate.
Shi Sui looked at Song Qing, who had been a little flustered since just now, sighed inaudibly, and turned around and left the side hall.
Seeing this ten-year-old girl, Shi Sui and Zheng Qi both guessed what Nian Nian had just done.
"It's a pity that he's not dead." Zheng Qi waited outside the palace until Sui came out.
Shi Sui smiled bitterly.
