The wind is gentle and the stream is clear.

There was a light mist on the ancient road, surrounded by mountains, and the sound of monkeys crying could be heard from all directions.

Amidst the emerald green pine and cypress forests, a horse-drawn carriage and sedan chair, escorted by two or three guards, traveled along the winding mountain road.

As the carriage moved forward, the wheels of the carriage made metallic sounds when stones hit them. There were also several scrolls and a pot of fragrant tea placed inside the carriage.

Ning Xiusu leaned lazily on the soft cushion of the carriage, occasionally looking out the window.

Perhaps because the terrain is too high, the mountains in the distance are all covered by clouds.

The wind curtain moved slightly, letting in a few rays of soft sunlight, which just happened to fall on a moon-white and light blue shirt. The silver thread was embroidered with light bamboo leaf patterns, which had a bit of luster and added to the coolness.

Suddenly, I smelled a familiar intoxicating flower fragrance, light and clear, like the chill after the rain.

These guards obviously didn't notice anything.

Thinking that it was Hua Jianbai, Ning Xiusu said, "Don't hide under the car."

Hearing what the person in the car said, Hua Jianbai really climbed into the car. He was wearing a floral blue suit, the fabric of which was tightly embroidered with mountains and rivers, outlining his tall figure.

Her hair was lightly tied up with a dark headband, making her look completely different from the woman she was dressed in.

Hua Jianbai seemed to be angry. With the movement of his wrist, a dagger with silver light flashed and was placed on his neck:

"You damn villain, why did you disrupt my plan and cause me and my nephew to be separated!"

"Are you addicted to being an assassin?"

Ning Xiusu felt the dagger was very cold, and his eyes became even colder.

Hua Jianbai was frightened by the stare of those gloomy jade-like eyes, and for some reason, he stuttered.

"Ning Xiusu, you... do you believe me..."

Hua Jianbai wanted to threaten, but unexpectedly the car suddenly bumped and Ning Xiusu's body leaned slightly. Hua Jianbai didn't want to hurt anyone, so he was startled and put away the dagger.

Ning Xiusu finally managed to hold onto the window sill of the sedan chair and sit steadily, but accidentally got a little closer to the tip of his nose.

Hua Jianbai's almond-shaped eyes moved slightly, and he thought of the scene at the banquet. Suddenly, he felt his ears burning, and he felt tenderness in the breath.

He quickly moved back, his heart beating fast as he angrily said, "You did that on purpose, didn't you?"

Ning Xiusu ignored his inexplicable anger and just asked:

"Hua Jianbai, what makes you think you and Pu Boyu can kidnap the young emperor in public?"

Hanamibai certainly wasn't sure, but he still said stubbornly, "How do you know if it won't work if you don't try?"

Ning Xiusu brushed his clothes and sat down, still very indifferent:

"In that case, you could have just gone and broken into the prison on your own. Why were you hiding under the car?"

Hua Jianbai was embarrassed when he heard this, biting his lower lip, and seemed to have been thinking for a long time before he looked up at him and said:

"I just feel that...no one can help me with Xiaoxiao's matter except you."

Unexpectedly, Ning Xiusu lowered his eyes and snorted coldly: "Who do you think I am? I have to help you when you need me, right?"

Hanamibai was suddenly choked by something, but surprisingly did not get angry, and just said:

"I was wrong this time. I was hiding something, but it's not normal for people to have secrets..."

"I just want to ask you one thing."

Ning Xiu interrupted him, his voice as sharp as ice and jade, watching him speak word for word: "Did you give him the drug when the Immortal was drunk?"

Hua Jianbai was stunned for a moment, his eyes moved slightly, and he seemed to be uneasy. After a while, he made up his mind to answer:

"Yes."

Every word he uttered seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, but Hua Jianbai explained, "But it's definitely not poison."

Ning Xiusu's eyes were dark and hard to read, and it was obvious that he didn't quite believe it.

Hua Jianbai was very nervous, rubbing his fingers with his fists. Suddenly, he said, "Actually... I'm the same as Yu..."

He understood: "You really do have a system. It seems you are deceiving me in more than one place?"

Hua Jianbai raised his eyes and said, "No, I wanted to tell you, but sometimes I really can't say it!"

"Why did you poison me?"

Ning Xiusu was obviously determined to keep harping on this issue.

"I……"

Seeing him stammer, Ning Xiusu analyzed coldly, "Just like those lawful people, they want to kill me."

"no."

Ning Xiusu lost his patience and didn't want to waste any more words, so he pretended to call the guards.

Hua Jianbai was in a panic and stepped forward to cover his mouth like a gangster:

"Ning Xiusu, trust me, the medicine I gave you is Dechun Powder, it's not poison!"

Aphrodisiac De Chunsan?

Ning Xiusu thought he had heard wrongly.

"Anyway, I never hurt you, I just..."

Hua Jianbai looked at him, his face red as a burning cloud.

"I'll tell you the truth. My previous identity as a lawful person was a flower thief. I do have a mission, but it's a character mission, not a mission to kill you."

Ning Xiusu finally struggled free, but before he could say anything.

The coachman let out a scream, and suddenly blood splattered on the carriage door. There was another violent jolt, and the carriage wheel tilted and suddenly fell over.

"Bandits are coming—"

The wind rustled and the leaves fluttered.

The hidden weapon flew out, and before the accompanying guards could shout a slogan, the head of the person was suddenly separated from the body.

Ning Xiusu was suddenly startled, and Hua Jianbai reacted incredibly quickly, splitting the roof of the carriage with one palm, pulling him up and standing on an empty grassy area.

Suddenly, the wind began to blow and the clouds began to surge. In the mountain stream, murderous aura suddenly rose. The tense atmosphere was like an arrow on a bowstring, ready to explode at any moment.

Hanamibai looked at the bushes vigilantly, as if someone was hiding in the woods, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

In a moment, a group of black-clad killers wrapped like mummies emerged from all directions.

Without saying a word, these people shuttled through the forest like ghosts, and when they raised their hands, countless hidden weapons flew towards them.

Hua Jianbai's figure was like a ghost. He caught many hidden weapons with his bare hands and shouted: "Give it back to you!"

Several strange men wrapped in black cloth fell down and disappeared in the blink of an eye, without even leaving their bodies.

"These things again."

Hanami cursed.

Ning Xiusu saw that the smoke-rotted places had left behind clothes and powder.

He had not observed it carefully before, but now he could be sure that it was related to the art of suppressing people.

"You really don't know what these things are?"

"No, Ning Xiusu, you still don't believe me, what do you mean?"

Before Hanamibai could finish his words, there was a sudden sound of thunder in the air, and several arrows shot towards them.

Ning Xiusu was slightly startled, and suddenly felt someone grabbing his shoulders and leaping several feet backwards with him.

The long sword in Hua Jianbai's hand hummed softly, the sword body shone with a cold light, and he cut off the arrow with a clean and neat movement.

"Don't you see? They are the same as He Qi, not human..."

"But you're not telling the truth. How can you prove that you have nothing to do with all the strange things happening in the Three Flowers Temple?"

"Dead villain!"

Hanamiba didn't know how to prove it, so he cursed angrily.

The strange men wrapped in black cloth said in unison:

"How can the variables and the orderly people be together? You have betrayed my lord."

These words were said to Hua Jianbai.

"Fart you!"

"Who is it that you are trying to cover up?"

Ning Xiusu asked coldly.

The man did not respond. He waved his hand and countless killers with knives and knives appeared. These people even had their heads covered, which looked very strange.

These strange killers seemed to be inexhaustible, and would reappear after being destroyed. Hanami was defeated as he shuttled between the flashing swords and shadows, and gradually became exhausted.

With a "swish", Hua Jianbai was trying to protect Ning Xiusu, but his arm was cut by the knife and blood flowed out.

Ning Xiusu's heart tightened as he saw a cold flash of a bright blade, slashing towards Hua Jianbai.

In his busy schedule, he didn't think twice and quickly stepped forward to push Hua Jianbai away. This would definitely result in bloodshed, but the blade just stopped at his head.
