Slag suffers as [main attack]
Chapter 156
When passing through several dangerous places, King Zhao encountered an assassin's ambush. For this reason, many of his subordinates went in.The opponent's assassin attacked fiercely, and he did not hesitate to exchange his life for his life. Caught off guard, King Zhao was injured on his shoulder.
Later, Xi Ruier, who caught up with King Zhao and his party, looked very ugly when he saw the injury on King Zhao's shoulder.He had heard that those assassins originally wanted to shoot King Zhao with blood-sealed throat poison.If those people really succeed, I'm afraid he won't even see King Zhao's last face.
Not long after leaving the border of Zhao Kingdom, those people acted so viciously. It seemed that they were really determined and did not want them to reach the capital smoothly.
A flash of anger flashed across Cyril's timeless face, and his eyes gradually became deep, without a trace of light.
For some reason, this kind of Xi Ruier made Zhao Wang a little uneasy, Zhao Wang took his hand and shook it gently: "I'm fine, really, I was careless this time, next time, I will definitely not let you They have a chance to get close."
Although King Zhao enjoyed the feeling of being cared for by his lover, he didn't want to see his lover worry about him, so he didn't act coquettishly.
"No, they won't stop. As long as the assassination is not successful, you will encounter all kinds of open and dark arrows along the way. This time, you were lucky to escape, but there is no guarantee that you will do it again next time." Such good luck."
"Did you curse your husband like that!" King Zhao leaned into Xi Ruier's ear and complained in a low voice.It's complaining, but it's actually more like acting like a baby.
King Zhao also knew in his heart that Xi Ruier was telling the truth.It's just that it's useless to tell the truth right now, it can only cause worry, so he doesn't want this topic to continue.Anyway, when the time comes, the soldiers will come and cover the water and soil, what else can we do?
Cyril took a deep look at him: "Since they want your life no matter what, I will not allow them to live no matter what."
Somehow, after Xi Ruier said this sentence, the uneasiness in King Zhao's heart became more and more intense.He thought about it carefully, and as long as he kept a close eye on Xi Ruier along the way, nothing would happen to Xi Ruier, so he reluctantly reassured: "Of course, when we arrive in the capital, I will not Let them go. If you dare to murder me, I will naturally ask them to pay the price!"
Along the way, because of the inexplicable worry in his heart, Zhao Wang Nianxi Ruier clings even tighter, so tight that even his little cubs can't stand it.
"I said, Boss doesn't need to do this. Looking at Boss like this, I really want to tie a rope to General Wei, for fear that General Wei will run away."
Now that Xi Ruier has left the palace, and the dynasty of Emperor Chu has also been destroyed, it is obviously inappropriate to call Xi Ruier the concubine of Wei.Calling him Mr. Wei was obviously not very appropriate in the army. Later, after seeing Xi Ruier's skills, they simply called Xi Ruier as the little general Wei.
They couldn't figure it out. General Wei is so good at martial arts, even if he is not good at strategy, he is more than enough to be a pioneer. Why did the late General Wei not let him go to the army, and finally sent him directly to the palace? What?What a waste of General Wei's abilities!
If it was Wei Lingxi in the past, it is naturally impossible to have such a good skill, but for today's Cyril, the fighting instinct is not only engraved in his bones and blood, but also engraved in the depths of his soul.In addition, this body has been adjusted by the brain, and the overall quality has become higher and higher. It is strange that those young soldiers under King Zhao can beat him.
It's just that Xi Ruier had been staying in the palace before, and his martial arts were useless, so no one discovered this.
Zhao Wang's subordinates couldn't understand at first how their boss would like such a charming young man who couldn't lift his arms and resist, so he provoked Xi Ruier fiercely, until they were all beaten down by Xi Ruier. He was convinced by Xi Ruier, and expressed his high approval for the vision of their boss.
Having seen the excellence of General Wei, at this time, one of the young generals couldn't help but start to worry about their general: "You said, our boss has always been in unrequited love, and the little general Wei didn't accept him at all. , that's why he is so worried about gains and losses?"
Another young general took a look at their boss who was shameless and sticking to Xi Ruier like brown candy, and agreed deeply: "It is very possible." How uncertain their boss is about this matter.
In fact, the young general can understand the mood of their boss.Although the great cause is indispensable, the daughter-in-law must not be lost!Otherwise, if she ascended the throne but ran away with her daughter-in-law, then she would not be alone and sleepless in the future!
"Hey, the boss usually looks good at everything, but he didn't expect to be so dull in terms of feelings." The first young general shook his head pretending to regret: "I thought he had already achieved the fruit of his cultivation, but he didn't expect that the journey had just begun. He The more you cling to Little General Wei, the more they will annoy him."
"Extremely extreme. In this matter, the boss is not very smart. Let's make a bet, just bet how long it will take for the little general Wei to bear his behavior and throw him away ?”
"I bet the day after tomorrow, General Wei looks like a patient man, he should be able to last until the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow is really too late. With our boss' clingy skills, I'm afraid that little general Wei won't be able to last tonight. I'll bet that little general Wei can last until tonight!"
……
On this side, King Zhao was still riding a horse and walking side by side with Xi Ruier, not knowing that he had already been rejected by his subordinates.
Xi Ruier turned his head to the side: "Why are you following me so closely?" Even his brother-in-law found out that something was wrong!
King Zhao's eyes were also good and he said: "I'm afraid you will run away."
Cyril raised her eyebrows: "Are you really doing what your subordinates said, I will bother you?"
"you will not."
"That's not sure." Cyril pretended to be disgusted and said: "Now I'm tired of seeing your face, so go away."
King Zhao said pitifully, "Xiaoxi, are you going to abandon me all the time?"
Cyril glanced at him, did not speak, and suddenly began to slow down his speed.
At some point, they came to a forest.Suddenly, countless rockets shot out from the forest, heading straight for King Zhao's vitals.Although King Zhao blocked the flaming arrow, when he cut the arrow in two with a long knife, a lot of white powder suddenly overflowed from the body of the arrow.
With sharp eyes and quick hands, Xi Ruier pulled King Zhao behind him, and used his body to block the powder for King Zhao.
"Xiaoxi!"
Seeing that Xi Ruier was submerged in the white powder, King Zhao couldn't help feeling tense, for fear that the white powder was a highly poisonous drug.This fool, why did he block it for him!If there is something wrong with him, what can he do!
"I'm fine." Although Cyril's voice sounded the same as usual, King Zhao could still hear the pain in it.
"They should only have this kind of arrow. They are nothing to be afraid of now. Get rid of them quickly and don't let them escape!"
After the white powder dissipated, Cyril took the bow and arrow from his back, and the three arrow feathers rushed towards the opposite side, but in an instant, there were three screams from the opposite side, accompanied by three The dull sound of heavy objects falling to the ground sounded at the same time.It can be seen that Xi Ruier's arrows were right, and he actually took the lives of three people at the same time.
His victory also greatly encouraged the other people around. They fought more and more bravely, and it didn't take long for them to successfully annihilate the enemies lurking in the opposite woods.
A young general under King Zhao wiped the sweat off his face, and said to Xi Ruier with admiration: "Little General Wei, you are really amazing. If it wasn't for the attack this time, I wouldn't have thought that you You actually have such a unique skill!" He gave Xi Ruier a thumbs up: "You are this."
It wasn't until he saw Xi Ruier's face that the young general realized something was wrong with him: "Little General Wei, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Cyril frowned slightly: "It's nothing, it's just temporary blindness."
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became serious, and no one was in the mood to be happy about killing all the assassins in ambush.
King Zhao's face was even more ashen, and he went straight forward, held Cyril's head and looked carefully, seeing that the originally bright and clear eyes had lost focus, and his heart felt a chill.
The person who was injured by the white powder should be him!Cyril will be like this, it is completely for him.As long as he is more cautious, it will not be like this!
As if she could feel the pain in King Zhao's heart, Xi Ruier patted his hand in turn and comforted him: "I'm fine, it's not your fault, but, as I said before, only Qianri is a thief , There is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. It is impossible to continue to defend passively like this."
King Zhao tremblingly held Xi Ruier into his arms, and said with pain in his voice, "I didn't protect you well, I deserve to die! Those who have hurt you, I will never let them go!" If he was only hostile to those people because of their different positions, at this moment, he really felt hatred for the three kings who seized the throne in the capital.Not only did they want to take his life, they also hurt his most important person!
Cyril was so injured, it was impossible for them to continue on their way.Although Xi Ruier said that the blindness of his eyes was only temporary and would recover automatically after a period of time, King Zhao did not believe it. He felt that these were mostly Xi Ruier's words to comfort himself.Not to mention King Zhao, even Xi Ruier's righteous brother Wei Ze didn't believe in this sentence.One-on-two is invalid, Xi Ruier had to obey the words of Wei Ze and King Zhao.
Fortunately, not far in front of them is a small town of considerable size.Maybe it's because this area is relatively peaceful and the roads are accessible, so it looks much more prosperous than the border area.I think there should be a doctor in this small town who can look into Xi Ruier's eyes.
Xi Ruier and King Zhao and their party were large in number and wore military uniforms. As soon as they entered the town, they attracted the attention of the people in the town.Fortunately, King Zhao's ability to appease people's hearts was appropriate, making those people believe that they just stayed here for one night and would not bring any turmoil to this peaceful town, and the onlookers gradually dispersed.
Among the common people, a clever boy boldly came forward: "Military men are newcomers, I'm afraid they don't know where the biggest inn in our town is. If the army men don't mind, let the boy show the way for the army men. "
King Zhao embraced Xi Ruier and glanced at the man.It was just a half-grown boy with a gray face, and it was obvious that life was not easy on weekdays.
Being stared at by King Zhao, the man seemed a little embarrassed, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet: "Mr. Jun?"
King Zhao stared intently for a while, until he almost saw a hole in the man, then he looked away: "In this case, let's send a few people to go with you to investigate first. If the situation is true, it will be of your benefit." .”
After several people came back, they nodded towards King Zhao.King Zhao's heart relaxed slightly, and he rode forward slowly.
Cyril was with him.After the previous attack, King Zhao no longer dared to let Xi Ruier separate from him, and always protected Xi Ruier, as if he was a fragile treasure.
At this moment, because of the boy's running back and forth, a little sweat oozes from the tip of his nose.King Zhao handed him a small silver coin: "It's your reward, take it to a bar." The young man's energy was lifted immediately, and he smiled so much that his teeth could not see his eyes.
Faced with the intimacy of two big men, Xi Ruier and King Zhao, the young man was naturally not surprised, but he knew very well when to show his emotions and when to hide them.These two are obviously not simple people. It's better for him not to talk too much. The affairs of these big people are not something they can inquire about.Therefore, without saying anything, he ran to Xi Ruier and King Zhao with his head down and said, "Master Jun, let me lead the horse for you."
At this time, King Zhao was holding Cyril in one hand and holding the rein in the other. After a long time, he really felt a little uncomfortable.However, he hasn't let the boy approach him yet. After all, he is outside, and there are still people who are eager to take his life. He will not be so careless as to let strangers approach him.It's always good to be careful when you're out and about.
"No need, you just lead the way."
It was indeed a big inn that the boy took them to.
In order to prevent the troops from being reported by interested people, the large troops did not follow up to the inn. At this time, only a small number of guards were left around Xi Ruier and King Zhao to protect their safety.
If it wasn't for the poison in Xi Ruier's eyes this time, he and King Zhao would have lived in the camp with the soldiers.Only by getting along well with the soldiers under him can a general be able to gain their approval, understand their needs, and make his subordinates sincerely work for him.
Now, although Xi Ruier has repeatedly stated that he is fine, King Zhao refuses to let Xi Ruier eat and sleep in the dew, and Xi Ruier has no choice but to obey King Zhao's words and stay in the inn obediently.
After setting up Xi Ruier, King Zhao simply fed Xi Ruier something to eat.Despite the limited conditions, King Zhao still chose the best ingredients for Xi Ruier as much as possible, and ordered people to make his favorite food.Watching Xi Ruier eat something into his mouth like a squirrel mouthful, Zhao Wang couldn't say how satisfied he was.
"Why don't you eat?" Cyril suddenly remembered this.
"I'm not hungry, you eat first." Seeing that Xi Ruier had almost eaten, King Zhao took a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth.
His gentle and meticulous appearance made Xi Ruier almost think that he had become a useless person.However, in the eyes of King Zhao now, he is probably really a useless person, who can only be pampered, unable to do anything or worry about it, just like the image of Ren Weixi in Ren Shao's mind back then.
After Xi Ruier finished eating, King Zhao did not start eating as he said, but sent someone to find a doctor to treat Xi Ruier's eyes.
King Zhao didn't know that ordinary doctors were helpless against this poison, no matter how many doctors he sought, he would probably get the same answer.Cyril is different, although he can't bring himself back to light right now, but his body has been transformed, and the ability to metabolize toxins is ten times stronger than that of ordinary people.For others, the poison that would blind them for life will only blind him for a while here in Cyril.After the toxins in the body are metabolized, he will naturally return to his original state.Whether he can find a doctor or not doesn't really affect him much.
King Zhao, who didn't know the truth, invited a doctor for Xi Ruier, but in the end he got a disappointing answer. Naturally, he was not happy, but at the same time, there was a trace of anxiety.
He was afraid, afraid that his lover's beautiful and smart eyes would never see any scenery again.If this is the case, isn't he ruining his lover's life?
"The poison on his eyes... really can't be cured?" Even though he had already got the answer from the doctor, King Zhao still asked one more question without giving up.
The old doctor shook his head: "Forgive me for my lack of academic skills and powerlessness. I really didn't think of any good way to cure the poison on his eyes. If you have connections, you might as well invite the imperial doctor to have a look. If there are doubts among the people, the doctor Sun is also good at Heal the eyes. With them here, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope. All I can do is to prescribe two kinds of medicinal materials for this young master, and keep him warm, so that his condition will not deteriorate."
"Since that's the case, you can follow this doctor to get the medicine. If you need any rare medicinal materials, just get them, and don't worry about others." King Zhao ordered a subordinate standing at the door.If you don't go to the entrance with your cronies in person, you can't make people feel at ease.
The subordinates also knew how much their master valued this little general Wei, not to mention rare medicinal materials, even if they were priceless treasures, as long as they were beneficial to little general Wei, he would not blink an eyelid.Besides, General Wei was injured because of his master, so the master will inevitably be more partial to him.Fortunately, he also brought enough bank notes with him, so he didn't have to worry too much.
"We've been through a lot of troubles along the way. As long as we pass through this place, we'll be more stable in the future." Xi Ruier said with a smile to King Zhao.
When King Zhao heard this, he buried himself in Xi Ruier's neck without saying a word: "It's because I didn't protect you well and made you suffer."
Xi Ruier's hand inserted into King Zhao's soft hair: "Don't say that, I'm very happy to be able to protect you. I want to protect you, and you want to protect me. It's the same. Don't treat me as a A weak person, you know my strength."
King Zhao said sullenly: "Yes, I know, but I still can't watch you get hurt in front of me." If that kind of thing happened again, he really didn't know what he would do.He has already made a decision, and next, he will try his best, and he will not move Cyril in the slightest.Of course, he didn't intend to tell Xi Ruier these things, he knew that Xi Ruier would definitely not agree.
However, even if he didn't say anything, from his leaked emotions, how could Cyril not be able to read the thoughts in his heart?Immediately sighed softly: "Fool." Then said seriously: "This time, it is really the last time."
Before King Zhao could understand the deep meaning of Xi Ruier's words, Xi Ruier gently pushed him: "I've been on the road recently, and my body is dirty. I want to take a bath now, so go and help me carry the bucket to warm it up." Water comes in."
King Zhao spoiled and smiled helplessly: "Okay." He was well aware of Xi Ruier's love of cleaning, so he didn't think there was anything wrong.Originally, he was enough to spoil Xi Ruier, and at this time, he would not refuse Xi Ruier's request.No matter what Cyril asks for, he is afraid that he will be willing to do so.Let alone a bucket of hot water, even if he wanted the stars in the sky, he would try his best to get them off for him.
However, Cyril has always known how to measure, and will not make any difficult demands.Because of this, King Zhao loved him more and more.
King Zhao gently pressed a kiss on Xi Ruier's eyelids: "You wait here for a while, I will go back as soon as I go."
Cyril looked at him with unfocused eyes, and gave a soft "hmm": "You go, don't worry about me." After a pause, he said: "No matter what, don't worry."
When King Zhao went out, Xi Ruier's gentle face with a smile on his face finally cooled down completely: "He has already left, you can come out too. It's really difficult for you to follow all the way here from the small forest."
Two men in black broke in through the window. They were so nimble and cautious, they followed all the way without being noticed.
Shadow Killer!
When 'seeing' these two people, only these words appeared in Xi Ruier's mind.
Compared with their skills in assassinating people, what is more terrifying is their ability to hide their own breath.If they hadn't leaked their aura a few times in the grove, even Cyril would not have been able to discover their existence.
Although it is not possible to determine which side's killer this is, Xi Ruier understands that they came with the determination to kill.If they are not sure that they will kill with one blow, they will never take it lightly.It is not surprising that Zhao Wang and others did not find them.
Leaving such two indeterminate time bombs by King Zhao's side obviously exceeded the bottom line that Xi Ruier could tolerate.Along the way, seeing that King Zhao was in danger again and again, Xi Ruier's patience was almost exhausted.
Since those people must find the flaws of King Zhao, then he will take the initiative to expose King Zhao's flaws to those people!
Right now, these assassins should know his importance to King Zhao.Compared to directly assassinating King Zhao, isn't there more to be done by holding him in the palm of your hand?
"You actually discovered our existence."
The surprise and fear in the heart of the man in black was no less than that of Cyril.They didn't expect that before they had time to make a move, it wasn't King Zhao who spotted them first, but this young Mr. Wei who looked delicate and weak and had no threat!
"You are from King Qi, right?" Xi Ruier snorted coldly. Although he didn't know what task King Qi assigned to them, it should not be as simple and rude as assassinating King Zhao. If so...
Now, he is the bait, let's see if these people and the big shots behind them will take the bait!
The man in black didn't expect that Cyril was so difficult to deal with, and before he had time to react, he heard movement from outside, made a decisive decision, picked up Cyril and disappeared into the room.
King Zhao, who came back from fetching water, saw the empty room, and the bucket in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Xiao Xi!!!!"
Later, Xi Ruier, who caught up with King Zhao and his party, looked very ugly when he saw the injury on King Zhao's shoulder.He had heard that those assassins originally wanted to shoot King Zhao with blood-sealed throat poison.If those people really succeed, I'm afraid he won't even see King Zhao's last face.

King Zhao stared intently for a while, until he almost saw a hole in the man, then he looked away: "In this case, let's send a few people to go with you to investigate first. If the situation is true, it will be of your benefit." .”
After several people came back, they nodded towards King Zhao.King Zhao's heart relaxed slightly, and he rode forward slowly.
Cyril was with him.After the previous attack, King Zhao no longer dared to let Xi Ruier separate from him, and always protected Xi Ruier, as if he was a fragile treasure.
At this moment, because of the boy's running back and forth, a little sweat oozes from the tip of his nose.King Zhao handed him a small silver coin: "It's your reward, take it to a bar." The young man's energy was lifted immediately, and he smiled so much that his teeth could not see his eyes.
Faced with the intimacy of two big men, Xi Ruier and King Zhao, the young man was naturally not surprised, but he knew very well when to show his emotions and when to hide them.These two are obviously not simple people. It's better for him not to talk too much. The affairs of these big people are not something they can inquire about.Therefore, without saying anything, he ran to Xi Ruier and King Zhao with his head down and said, "Master Jun, let me lead the horse for you."
At this time, King Zhao was holding Cyril in one hand and holding the rein in the other. After a long time, he really felt a little uncomfortable.However, he hasn't let the boy approach him yet. After all, he is outside, and there are still people who are eager to take his life. He will not be so careless as to let strangers approach him.It's always good to be careful when you're out and about.
"No need, you just lead the way."
It was indeed a big inn that the boy took them to.
In order to prevent the troops from being reported by interested people, the large troops did not follow up to the inn. At this time, only a small number of guards were left around Xi Ruier and King Zhao to protect their safety.
If it wasn't for the poison in Xi Ruier's eyes this time, he and King Zhao would have lived in the camp with the soldiers.Only by getting along well with the soldiers under him can a general be able to gain their approval, understand their needs, and make his subordinates sincerely work for him.
Now, although Xi Ruier has repeatedly stated that he is fine, King Zhao refuses to let Xi Ruier eat and sleep in the dew, and Xi Ruier has no choice but to obey King Zhao's words and stay in the inn obediently.
After setting up Xi Ruier, King Zhao simply fed Xi Ruier something to eat.Despite the limited conditions, King Zhao still chose the best ingredients for Xi Ruier as much as possible, and ordered people to make his favorite food.Watching Xi Ruier eat something into his mouth like a squirrel mouthful, Zhao Wang couldn't say how satisfied he was.
"Why don't you eat?" Cyril suddenly remembered this.
"I'm not hungry, you eat first." Seeing that Xi Ruier had almost eaten, King Zhao took a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth.
His gentle and meticulous appearance made Xi Ruier almost think that he had become a useless person.However, in the eyes of King Zhao now, he is probably really a useless person, who can only be pampered, unable to do anything or worry about it, just like the image of Ren Weixi in Ren Shao's mind back then.
After Xi Ruier finished eating, King Zhao did not start eating as he said, but sent someone to find a doctor to treat Xi Ruier's eyes.
King Zhao didn't know that ordinary doctors were helpless against this poison, no matter how many doctors he sought, he would probably get the same answer.Cyril is different, although he can't bring himself back to light right now, but his body has been transformed, and the ability to metabolize toxins is ten times stronger than that of ordinary people.For others, the poison that would blind them for life will only blind him for a while here in Cyril.After the toxins in the body are metabolized, he will naturally return to his original state.Whether he can find a doctor or not doesn't really affect him much.
King Zhao, who didn't know the truth, invited a doctor for Xi Ruier, but in the end he got a disappointing answer. Naturally, he was not happy, but at the same time, there was a trace of anxiety.
He was afraid, afraid that his lover's beautiful and smart eyes would never see any scenery again.If this is the case, isn't he ruining his lover's life?
"The poison on his eyes... really can't be cured?" Even though he had already got the answer from the doctor, King Zhao still asked one more question without giving up.
The old doctor shook his head: "Forgive me for my lack of academic skills and powerlessness. I really didn't think of any good way to cure the poison on his eyes. If you have connections, you might as well invite the imperial doctor to have a look. If there are doubts among the people, the doctor Sun is also good at Heal the eyes. With them here, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope. All I can do is to prescribe two kinds of medicinal materials for this young master, and keep him warm, so that his condition will not deteriorate."
"Since that's the case, you can follow this doctor to get the medicine. If you need any rare medicinal materials, just get them, and don't worry about others." King Zhao ordered a subordinate standing at the door.If you don't go to the entrance with your cronies in person, you can't make people feel at ease.
The subordinates also knew how much their master valued this little general Wei, not to mention rare medicinal materials, even if they were priceless treasures, as long as they were beneficial to little general Wei, he would not blink an eyelid.Besides, General Wei was injured because of his master, so the master will inevitably be more partial to him.Fortunately, he also brought enough bank notes with him, so he didn't have to worry too much.
"We've been through a lot of troubles along the way. As long as we pass through this place, we'll be more stable in the future." Xi Ruier said with a smile to King Zhao.
When King Zhao heard this, he buried himself in Xi Ruier's neck without saying a word: "It's because I didn't protect you well and made you suffer."
Xi Ruier's hand inserted into King Zhao's soft hair: "Don't say that, I'm very happy to be able to protect you. I want to protect you, and you want to protect me. It's the same. Don't treat me as a A weak person, you know my strength."
King Zhao said sullenly: "Yes, I know, but I still can't watch you get hurt in front of me." If that kind of thing happened again, he really didn't know what he would do.He has already made a decision, and next, he will try his best, and he will not move Cyril in the slightest.Of course, he didn't intend to tell Xi Ruier these things, he knew that Xi Ruier would definitely not agree.
However, even if he didn't say anything, from his leaked emotions, how could Cyril not be able to read the thoughts in his heart?Immediately sighed softly: "Fool." Then said seriously: "This time, it is really the last time."
Before King Zhao could understand the deep meaning of Xi Ruier's words, Xi Ruier gently pushed him: "I've been on the road recently, and my body is dirty. I want to take a bath now, so go and help me carry the bucket to warm it up." Water comes in."
King Zhao spoiled and smiled helplessly: "Okay." He was well aware of Xi Ruier's love of cleaning, so he didn't think there was anything wrong.Originally, he was enough to spoil Xi Ruier, and at this time, he would not refuse Xi Ruier's request.No matter what Cyril asks for, he is afraid that he will be willing to do so.Let alone a bucket of hot water, even if he wanted the stars in the sky, he would try his best to get them off for him.
However, Cyril has always known how to measure, and will not make any difficult demands.Because of this, King Zhao loved him more and more.
King Zhao gently pressed a kiss on Xi Ruier's eyelids: "You wait here for a while, I will go back as soon as I go."
Cyril looked at him with unfocused eyes, and gave a soft "hmm": "You go, don't worry about me." After a pause, he said: "No matter what, don't worry."
When King Zhao went out, Xi Ruier's gentle face with a smile on his face finally cooled down completely: "He has already left, you can come out too. It's really difficult for you to follow all the way here from the small forest."
Two men in black broke in through the window. They were so nimble and cautious, they followed all the way without being noticed.
Shadow Killer!
When 'seeing' these two people, only these words appeared in Xi Ruier's mind.
Compared with their skills in assassinating people, what is more terrifying is their ability to hide their own breath.If they hadn't leaked their aura a few times in the grove, even Cyril would not have been able to discover their existence.
Although it is not possible to determine which side's killer this is, Xi Ruier understands that they came with the determination to kill.If they are not sure that they will kill with one blow, they will never take it lightly.It is not surprising that Zhao Wang and others did not find them.
Leaving such two indeterminate time bombs by King Zhao's side obviously exceeded the bottom line that Xi Ruier could tolerate.Along the way, seeing that King Zhao was in danger again and again, Xi Ruier's patience was almost exhausted.
Since those people must find the flaws of King Zhao, then he will take the initiative to expose King Zhao's flaws to those people!
Right now, these assassins should know his importance to King Zhao.Compared to directly assassinating King Zhao, isn't there more to be done by holding him in the palm of your hand?
"You actually discovered our existence."
The surprise and fear in the heart of the man in black was no less than that of Cyril.They didn't expect that before they had time to make a move, it wasn't King Zhao who spotted them first, but this young Mr. Wei who looked delicate and weak and had no threat!
"You are from King Qi, right?" Xi Ruier snorted coldly. Although he didn't know what task King Qi assigned to them, it should not be as simple and rude as assassinating King Zhao. If so...
Now, he is the bait, let's see if these people and the big shots behind them will take the bait!
The man in black didn't expect that Cyril was so difficult to deal with, and before he had time to react, he heard movement from outside, made a decisive decision, picked up Cyril and disappeared into the room.
King Zhao, who came back from fetching water, saw the empty room, and the bucket in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Xiao Xi!!!!"
