Cypress Boat Floating
Chapter 158 Exposed
After exchanging positions, Ye Jianqing occupied the best position for escape. She had no intention of entangled with the other party. Seeing that the other party could not cause any harm to her for the time being, she raised her foot and wanted to run outside. Liu Miao's sudden attack trapped her in place for a while, unable to pass on the message to Lu Ci Qiu. Now she didn't know what happened to the others. After all, she had to go out first to let Lu Ci Qiu know her current situation.
However, just as Ye Jianqing stepped out of the door and was about to leave, a gritting-teeth voice called out to her from behind.
"Ye Jianqing!"
The person who was stopped was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he would be exposed so quickly. This was really a difficult situation. Now that he had been recognized, he couldn't leave or stay. He finally retracted his feet that wanted to run and stopped in the middle of the yard.
The long black and beautiful hair that he was so proud of was useless at this moment. Instead, it had the opposite effect of blocking his sight. Ye Jianqing usually didn't like complicated things, and the same was true for his own hair. He would tie it up if possible and would never let it get in the way of him in the slightest.
I saw a hairpin appeared in her hand at some point. She was calm, standing with her back to Liu Miao. She picked up the hairpin that came from nowhere, wrapped it around her head twice and tied up her long hair steadily. No matter how she moved, her hair would not fall apart.
After finishing her hair, she was very happy. This skill was acquired after she came to the ancient times. In modern times, she never had this problem with short hair, but in ancient times, the hair on the body was given by parents and could not be cut easily, so she practiced this trick.
Now that I've been recognized, pretending to be a ghost won't work, so...
Just conquer it by force!
The next second after her hair was done, Ye Jianqing turned around and rushed towards Liu Miao at a rapid speed. The skylark was held in her backhand, and the blade was shining coldly under the moonlight, which made people feel cold at the sight of it.
Liu Miao was shocked. He thought that Ye Jianqing would talk to him first after his identity was revealed, but he didn't expect that the other party would attack directly, and the speed was not at the same level as what happened just now in the house.
Only then did he realize that he had only taken advantage of the terrain.
Although Liu Miao had learned a few moves, they were all moves rehearsed in the opera troupe. Each move was practiced in the direction of not being able to kill the person, which was equivalent to a fancy move. Ye Jianqing was different. Ye Jianqing's moves were all aimed at attacking the fatal points of the person.
What she pursues is speed, accuracy and ruthlessness, and she requires a fatal blow. Any unnecessary moves are a burden to her.
So the winner of this duel was already decided. No matter how fast Liu Miao dodged, he was not as agile as Ye Jianqing. Ye Jianqing was like an eagle, and would never give up once he set his eyes on the food.
Liu Miao thrust out with his sword, but Ye Jianqing grabbed his wrist. Ye Jianqing used the force of Liu Miao's wrist to turn himself behind him, and before he could react, he kicked him in the back. The kick was so powerful that Liu Miao staggered forward a few steps. When he was about to fall, he quickly touched the ground with the tip of his sword to stop himself.
Ye Jianqing never misses any opportunity and never gives the enemy any chance to breathe. Liu Miao had just held on to himself when Ye Jianqing kicked him to the ground with a side kick.
This time, he flew out and fell to the ground, unable to stand up again. The long sword flew out and was caught in Ye Jianqing's hand with a leap.
"That's cruel." Liu Miao fell to the ground, holding his chest. He felt pain in all his internal organs. Although he hadn't vomited blood, his internal strength must have been damaged long ago. He even felt pain in his ribs when he breathed. It seemed that at least two of them were broken.
He couldn't stand up at all. He fell to the ground, staring at Ye Jianqing with eyes as vicious as a poisonous snake.
Ye Jianqing's face seemed to be calm, as if she had some blood feud with Liu Miao. It was so calm that Liu Miao wondered if she was really going to kill him in the next second. Especially when she had no expression on her face, coldly weighed her sword, and was about to stab herself with it, he closed his eyes in fear.
Before today, he had always regarded Ye Jianqing as a dog of Lu Ci Qiu. He did not expect that this dog was actually a wolf, a wolf that killed people without blinking an eye. However, he did not regret it. He only hated that he was going to die without completing his master's mission.
In his heart, he had sentenced himself to death today. He felt that he would definitely die at the hands of Ye Jianqing today.
The sharp sword pierced through the air, bringing up the sound of wind. There was no pain as he had imagined, and no discomfort. Liu Miao reached out and touched himself, but did not find anything on his body that did not belong to him. He felt the sword shaking beside his ear, and then it stood firmly.
He opened his eyes and what came into view was Ye Jianqing's face. The difference was that this time he was smiling, just like two months ago.
"Boss Liu, what are you afraid of?" Ye Jianqing asked him with a smile. If one ignores the foot she was stepping on his chest, the scene would be quite harmonious.
"What do you mean?" Liu Miao frowned. For a moment he was a little confused about Ye Jianqing's thoughts.
"What can I mean? Originally, I came here to take your life." The expression on Ye Jianqing's face was like an innocent girl with a smile, but the words he said were creepy.
"Aren't you alive and well? Why are you looking for my life?" Liu Miao was puzzled. Murdering Ye Jianqing had never been one of his missions.
"Then tell me, why was I harmed after I left you?" Ye Jianqing said as she increased the strength of her foot, pressing Liu Miao so hard that he couldn't breathe and almost suffocated to death. He already had two broken ribs because of the previous blow, and this time when she stepped on him, Liu Miao felt as if his ribs were piercing into the flesh, and the bones seemed to be coming out, causing him excruciating pain.
"I... I don't know." The pain drove Liu Miao to slap Ye Jianqing's ankle desperately. He wanted Ye Jianqing to loosen up a little so that he would feel better.
Perhaps he really felt Liu Miao's pain, or perhaps he didn't want Liu Miao to die so soon, so Ye Jianqing finally relaxed a little.
"So where did the girl go?"
"Xiao Cui, disappeared on that day." Liu Miao was panting heavily, sweat pouring down his body, and his chest was hurting more and more, making him grimace in pain.
"It wasn't you who did this?" Ye Jianqing still seemed to distrust him, but at least the foot finally left his chest.
"No, I know nothing." Liu Miao no longer had the strength to even shake his head. He could only try to lie down flat to make himself feel better, and tried to speak softly.
Ye Jianqing sat down directly beside him, as if she was not worried at all about his counterattack. Of course, she didn't have to worry, because the extremely sharp Skylark Knife was on his neck, and as long as he made the slightest movement, the knife would take his life.
Liu Miao didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Ye Jianqing's defensive posture. He didn't know who he should be more defensive against now. It was obviously her who was playing tricks in his yard at the beginning, it was also her who beat him up so hard that he couldn't move, and now it was also her who was threatening him with a knife, and she was still like this.
"Why did she attack me that day?" Ye Jianqingli couldn't get an answer here, and the smile disappeared from her face. She was so angry now that Liu Miao didn't dare to get close to her. If he could move, he really wanted to stay away from her.
"If I want to cooperate with you, I naturally have to test your ability. Xiao Cui is the best trained among me, and she looks like you, so it is best for her to take action." At this point, Liu Miao did not hide anything.
"When did you train her, and how long have you been paying attention to me? Otherwise, why would you deliberately find someone who looks so similar to me?"
"The God's House appeared earlier than you expected. It appeared as early as last year, but it didn't make a big deal at that time. I noticed you because of the matter of the virtuous king being crowned king at that time. I knew that if the God's House continued to do this, you would definitely investigate. Isn't it a coincidence that I just happened to have a child here who looks a bit like you, and looks even more like you when he dresses up. So I have to train him well, just in case." Liu Miao spoke and paused, paused and spoke again. He was very tired after he finished speaking. Ye Jianqing waited patiently to hear him finish.
"The shrine appeared so early." Liu Miao noticed that Ye Jianqing's face had darkened a little, and he understood that the other party must not know about this, otherwise he would not have this expression.
"Since it wasn't you who attacked me, then who do you think it was?" Soon, Ye Jianqing's expression changed again. He supported his face with his other hand and moved closer to Liu Miao. His eyes looked at him, as if he wanted to see something from him.
Liu Miao's eyes rolled around, and another idea came to his mind. He naturally knew who did these things, and he also knew what Ye Jianqing might have experienced, but he couldn't reveal all of it to Ye Jianqing, he could only give some guidance.
"You can investigate Xiao Cui's disappearance. His disappearance must be related to your murder."
"Oh~" Ye Jianqing raised his eyebrows, "How can you be so sure?"
"I'm just saying there is a possibility. Think about it, Xiao Cui disappeared and something happened to you. Although I don't know what happened to you, all the doctors in the capital were called to the mansion by the wise king that night, so it doesn't look like a trivial matter." Liu Miao kept an eye on Ye Jianqing's expression at all times.
"The only person who could have hurt you was Xiao Cui, who had contact with you that day. And now Xiao Cui is missing, and no one can find her. Think about it, doesn't this make sense?" After Liu Miao finished speaking, he secretly pondered over what he had said. He felt that he was a little anxious and his words were not clear enough, but he was not wrong after all.
"What you said makes sense, but why should I believe you?" Ye Jianqing looked at him with a smile. For a moment, he didn't know whether Ye Jianqing really believed him.
But what he said was indeed true.
"It's only natural. I'm telling the truth without a single lie." If he couldn't move now, Liu Miao would have almost knelt down and sworn to the world.
"What do you think?" Suddenly, Ye Jianqing stood up and asked into the air.
Seeing her like this, Liu Miao could only sigh in his heart, "Sure enough, there is an accomplice." How could she possibly do such a thing by herself?
Then a man in a black nightgown floated down from the roof. Although his face was covered with cloth, Liu Miao still recognized that this man was Lu Ci Qiu.
"Just trust him for once." Lu Ci Qiu said.
