The daily routine of being tricked by the scheming protagonist after wearing a book

That night, Xu Wangzhi slept soundly, but was awakened by the noise outside the house.

He subconsciously called out to Shan, but no one answered him.

After thinking about it, Xu Wangzhi got up and put on some clothes, opened the door and looked.

Seeing this, he froze in place.

The courtyard was quiet and tidy before going to bed, and now there were several corpses lying here and there. People who didn't know him stood all over the courtyard, and when they heard the door opening, they all looked at him.

The ignorant young man was dressed in white, standing outside the blood, as if a fairy had strayed into the manjusawa bushes, cold and innocent.

But this young man clearly has a villain's heart.

Xu Wangzhi didn't know what he looked like in the eyes of others, so he subconsciously looked at the only familiar person in the courtyard: "Cheng Ying, what's going on?"

But before Cheng Ying could make a sound, the people standing beside him knelt down on one knee one after another, and one of the people with black silk on his forehead replied to Xu Wangzhi: "This subordinate should die, disturb the young city master, all the assassins have been killed tonight, please The young city lord returns to his house to rest, and I will report this matter to the city lord later."

Xu Wangzhi glanced at him, but did not go back to the room, but set his eyes on Cheng Ying.

"Are you dumb?"

This was naturally said to Cheng Ying.

The dark guard who just made up his mind to report back without asking was stunned, he lowered his head and kept silent.

Cheng Ying seemed to have just come back to his senses, he met his gaze, and replied: "Tonight, there is a demon cultivator sneaking into the mansion intending to assassinate him, but he was spotted by the dark guards in the mansion. Since the fight so far, although there have been some casualties, fortunately no one slipped through the net. fish."

Xu Wangzhi nodded, seeing that there were also those wearing the same standard clothes as those hidden guards lying in the courtyard, a trace of unbearableness flashed in his eyes.

This was the second time he saw someone actually die before his eyes.

"You all get up." Xu Wangzhi said to the hidden guard who was kneeling on the ground.

The hidden guards did not dare to get up.

"Why?" Xu Wangzhi laughed, "So my words don't carry any weight in your eyes."

It was obviously a smiling tone, but the people in the courtyard felt as if a poisonous snake had crawled across their backs.

Almost instantly, everyone who was kneeling on the ground stood up.

Xu Wangzhi took a deep breath, no one listened to his good words, he had to be eccentric to listen, really...

"For the casualties tonight, in addition to the pension from the city lord, another share will be allocated from my private treasury to give to their families." Xu Wangzhi said.

No one expected Xu Wangzhi to say such a thing.

There was a moment of silence in the courtyard, and the hidden guards who stood up knelt down again: "It is our duty to protect the young city lord."

The blue eyes were even more mysterious in the dark night, Cheng Ying watched the scene silently, his expression remained unchanged, like a passerby who stayed out of the way.

"Listen to the young city lord."

Before Xu Wangzhi could say anything more, a familiar majestic voice came from outside the courtyard.

It was Xu Zhong, the city lord.

It seemed that there was too much movement here, which alarmed him.

"Meet the mayor."

The hidden guards kept kneeling on one knee, and bowed to Xu Zhong with their hands clasped.

Xu Zhong glanced at the situation in the courtyard, noticed that Xu Wangzhi was unharmed, and said: "Clean up here first."

"What are you doing standing outside? Go back to the room to rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." Xu Zhong said this to Xu Wangzhi.

Now that he's here, Xu Wangzhi doesn't need to worry about the next thing.Xu Wangzhi yawned, pretending to be cynical and said: "Father, you have to find out who is so bold as to try to harm me, and let me know that I have to peel his skin."

Xu Zhong: "Don't worry."

Seeing that the door was closed again, Xu Zhong's face, which was originally kind, turned completely cold.

The dark guard with a forehead immediately got up, walked to him, and reported to him everything that happened here.The other hidden guards began to skillfully clean up the scene.

At this moment, compared with the secret guards who were performing their duties, Cheng Ying standing in the corner stood out a bit.

Xu Zhong narrowed his eyes, raised his hand to interrupt the hidden guard, and saw that Cheng Ying was about to speak, when the door that had just been closed suddenly opened again.

"Cheng Ying, come in."

Hearing his son's voice, Xu Zhong closed his half-open mouth again.

Cheng Ying didn't even look at Xu Zhong's side, and when he heard Xu Wangzhi calling him, he pushed the door open and walked in.

After the door was closed again, Xu Zhong let go of his hand, and the hidden guard was signaled to resume the unfinished report.

In the room, the glazed beads were placed on the magic circle again, and the light was bright.

Cheng Ying stood in front of the table, waiting for Xu Wangzhi to speak.

Xu Wangzhi's thoughts at this moment are actually a little confused. The book does not mention that the original owner was assassinated, but after he passed through, it was the second time.

Could it be that he didn't watch the whole episode?

Or, those demon cultivators came for the protagonist?

"Why would someone want to kill me?" Xu Wangzhi asked abruptly.

Cheng Ying frowned, how did he know this?

Seeing his silence, Xu Wangzhi asked again: "Are you sure you are here to kill me?"

Cheng Ying: "... It seems that they are heading straight for this room."

Xu Wangzhi muttered softly: "This is unreasonable."

Cheng Ying raised his eyebrows. This young master seemed to have a deep misunderstanding of his popularity. He acted so arrogantly on weekdays. It is not impossible for him to make too many enemies and invite revenge.

Most people think that Xu Wangzhi's sins in the past have attracted backlash, including Xu Wangzhi himself.

"You go out." Xu Wangzhi raised his hand to chase people away, he was going to rest, it hurts his body to think late at night, no matter what happened, we can wait until tomorrow.

Cheng Ying nodded, and was about to turn around and leave, but his ears moved slightly, and he noticed something unusual.

Someone sneaked in.

He calmly stepped forward to approach Xu Wangzhi, at the same time held his arm with one hand, and forcibly pulled him up from the couch: "Let me help the young master go back to rest for a while."

Xu Wangzhi was caught off guard by being pulled up, unsteady, and half leaned on Cheng Ying.

Almost at the same time, Moxiu, who was hiding in the dark, sensed the abnormality and knew that he had been exposed, so he risked his life and shot directly.

There was no time for anyone to react, just a bang, and the explosive magic flame exploded from the roof.

Although Cheng Ying had used his spiritual power to build up a layer of protection to weaken Moxiu's self-destruct attack at the critical moment, Xu Wangzhi was still shocked, and before he could react, he spit out a mouthful of blood.

The slightly better thing is that I didn't faint directly this time.

He heard Xu Dasheng reprimanding something loudly, someone took him away from Cheng Ying's arms, and then... he finally couldn't hold it anymore and fainted.

It was still late at night when he woke up again, Xu Wangzhi opened his eyes and saw Xu Zhong who was guarding his bedside.

When he finally woke up, Xu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you awake? Is there something wrong? Dad asked the medical officer to come and look at you again." Xu Zhong spoke to him softly.

Xu Wangzhi shook his head, his eyes shifted from him to the strange bed curtain above his head.

"Your yard is temporarily unoccupied. Do you remember this place? This is the place where you lived when you were a child. During this time, you will live here first, and then move back when it is repaired over there." Xu Zhong explained.

Xu Wangzhi: "Father, what happened to those demon cultivators, have you found out?"

Hearing him ask about the demon cultivator, Xu Zhong looked a little more serious: "We are still investigating, those demon cultivators who sneaked in are all dead soldiers, and the hidden guards did not catch them alive."

"Are they targeting me?" Xu Wangzhi wanted to know why.

Seeing his frowning, Xu Zhong stretched out his hand, patted Xu Wangzhi's head, as if coaxing a child, said: "Don't be afraid, Dad will protect you."

Xu Wangzhi was stunned, and the warm big hands covering his head made him feel dazed for a moment.

It took a long time for Xu Wangzhi to recover his voice, but instead of responding to Xu Zhong's concern, he asked, "Why do they want to kill me?"

Xu Zhong shook his head: "Have you provoked any demon cultivators recently?"

He has never gone out through the book so far, and if he has, he should be the original owner.

Xu Wangzhi: "I have no impression."

Seeing him like this, Xu Zhong didn't make things difficult for him, just took out a black jade from his bosom, put it in his hand, and said: "Don't let this black jade leave your body at any time, it can protect you in case of emergency." Life, understand?"

Hearing that it was a life-saving artifact, Xu Wangzhi immediately hung Moyu around his neck: "Understood."

While the two were talking, the medical officer had already arrived.

It was Xiang Shan who heard Xu Wangzhi woke up and hurried over to invite him to wait.

"You are a considerate servant." Xu Zhong praised Xiang Shan.

Seeing Xiang Shan's eyes filled with tears when he heard Xu Chong's praise, Xu Wangzhi laughed and said, "Yes."

After the medical officer finished the diagnosis and said that Xu Wangzhi was fine, Xu Chong left to go to the study in peace. There was a backlog of affairs in the city for a day, and he needed to deal with it in time.

As soon as Xu Zhong left, the medical officer followed suit.

For a while, only Xiang Shan and a few servants were left in the room.

"Where's Cheng Ying?" Xu Wangzhi asked.

Xiang Shan: "He failed to protect the young master and was punished by the city lord."

Was punished?

Hearing this, Xu Wangzhi immediately sat up from the bed: "He is mine, how can I touch him without my permission."

Xiang Shan muttered, who would dare to disobey the order of the city lord.

"The city lord suspected that he was a spy from Moxiu's side, and put him in a dungeon." Xiang Shan explained.

Xu Wangzhi didn't doubt Cheng Ying at all: "If it wasn't for him, I would have died long ago."

If it hadn't happened that Cheng Ying was also in the house at that time, the shock of Moxiu's self-explosion would not have just made him unconscious for a day.

Xiang Shan lowered his head, it is not up to him to decide whether to shut people or not.

"Pass me a sound transmission talisman, and I'll tell the city lord." Xu Wangzhi coughed twice, and said to Xiang Shan.

Xiangshan immediately handed it over with both hands, and poured spiritual power into it intimately.

"Daddy."

Soon, Xu Zhong's voice came from the sound transmission note.

"Well, it's rare for you to use the sound transmission talisman to find me. I just woke up and didn't take a good rest. Is there something important?"

Xu Wangzhi cut to the chase: "Did you lock up Cheng Ying?"

Xu Zhong paused: "Well, in this situation, he is very suspicious."

Xu Wangzhi: "But if it wasn't for him, I would have died."

"I will release him after I find out his identity."

Xu Wangzhi: "No, you have to release him now."

If you continue to lock it down, you will become enemies with the protagonist, which is not acceptable.

"Nian Xiao..."

"Father, he is mine." Xu Wangzhi insisted.

Xu Zhong was silent for a moment, then agreed with a sigh: "I'll let him go."

"I want it now."

"it is good."

After the conversation ended, Xu Wangzhi relaxed a little and lay back on the bed.

I was in a hurry just now, but now I feel dizzy and tinnitus. This body is really weak.

He has to figure out a way to strengthen his body.
