Chapter 162 Murder

Set up the northern army camp.

Lin Kui listened intently to the music of silk and bamboo drums coming from the large tent in the distance, and watched the servants shuttle in and out with all kinds of dishes and drinks.After taking a few quick breaths, he stretched out his hand and tugged at the somewhat tight collar.

When faced with major life decisions, everyone must be nervous.Now is the time for him to make a big decision.

He turned around, and the midday sun reflected from the rows of sharp blades, making him squint subconsciously.

A hundred knives and axemen lined up in front of him, all holding sharp knives and looking murderous.They were all carefully selected from the army by him, brave and fearless warriors.

The target of these knives and axes is Xiao Zhuo.

The master, Xiao Beiheng, was trying to gain fame, so he didn't take advantage of such a great opportunity.Lin Kui doesn't think so, if there is anyone in the world who can be the master's opponent, it can only be Xiao Zhuo.

Now Xiao Zhuo is in the camp of the Dingbei Army, the opportunity is once in a thousand years, if he is not slaughtered at this time, let alone when.

Letting the tiger go back to the mountain will cause serious trouble.

Xiao Beiheng is his master, but he is not a person who passively obeys his master's orders.From taking the prescription for Xiao Beiheng on his own initiative, to changing the maid for Shen Yuexi in private, he always has his own ideas.

The master disagreed with the assassination of Xiao Zhuo.He wants to make his own decision again, and remove this hidden danger for his master.I believe Xiao Beiheng will not blame him afterwards.

"You all understand what to do, don't you?" Lin Kui whispered, "You have 50 people on the left and right, ambush outside the tent. Listen to His Royal Highness throwing a cup as a sign, and enter together."

The sergeants all had serious faces, as if they had concerns.

Lin Kui hummed from his nostrils and looked at the crowd.What, is it because they are not good at speaking, or are they afraid of Xiao Zhuo's force?
One of the leading sergeants said: "Mr. Lin, my villain... I have something to ask."

"Say."

"Today's banquet for Xiao Zhuo, the servants brought up wine bottles. The thing is heavy, even if it falls on the ground, it won't make a sound. We're afraid... afraid we won't be able to hear it. Besides..."

Lin Kui impatiently raised his hand to stop the sergeant from speaking, and waved behind him.

A sergeant came over with a tray.There is a pair of exquisite jade cups on it.This thing is valuable and it is his collection.For the sake of his master, he decided to bear the pain and give up his love.

"I've already made preparations. After you're ready to ambush, I'll go into the tent and present this set of jade cups to His Royal Highness, and ask him to throw this cup as a sign. Can you hear this clearly?"

The sergeants breathed a sigh of relief, and the leader nodded: "Mr. Lin, we can hear the sound clearly."

"Remember, go straight to Xiao Zhuo after entering, don't worry about other people. Those who kill Xiao Zhuo will be rewarded with a thousand gold."

After Lin Kui gave his orders, he waved his sword and ax to prepare.

He dusted off his clothes, straightened his crown, and took the jade cup from the sergeant.Just as he was about to walk towards the big tent, there was a burst of low laughter from the old man beside him.

"Old Ji, why are you laughing?" Lin Kui held the plate in one hand and looked at Ji Zhong.

Ji Zhong is a teacher invited by His Royal Highness to teach swordsmanship, and he dare not offend easily.Knowing that Ji Zhong was laughing at him, he couldn't get angry, so he could only ask aloud.

"Mr. Lin, you are the counselor of His Royal Highness, why are you acting so naive?"

Lin Kui was a little dissatisfied and asked, "How naive?"

"Do you really think these knives can kill Xiao Zhuo?" Ji Zhong asked.

Lin Kui couldn't bear his cynicism, so he sneered: "I haven't seen anyone who can't even deal with 100 people."

After finishing speaking, he didn't want to talk to Ji Zhong either, and wanted to leave.

"Xiao Zhuo," Ji Zhong bowed his head, as if talking to himself, "he is the one who can kidnap King Doma among all armies."

Lin Kui froze and stopped halfway.

Really, I was ready to go, how could I forget this stubble.

He also knew that Xiao Zhuo hijacked King Doma and forced King Doma to swear to withdraw his troops.There were so many guards around King Doma, but none of them could stop Xiao Zhuo.Now Xiao Zhuo is in the tent, sitting with the master.It really made the master throw the glass... It is estimated that Xiao Zhuo's sword was already on the master's neck as soon as the wine glass was raised.

A few days ago Ji Zhong just told his master that he is not Xiao Zhuo's opponent yet.

If he forced the sword and ax to charge, he would be betting that Xiao Beiheng would not be restrained by Xiao Zhuo.This kind of behavior of taking the master as a bet, it's okay to say that the master is dead, if he survives, the first one will cut off his head.

Thinking of this, Lin Kui felt a chill run down his spine.Hastily said to the sergeant next to him: "Call those swordsmen back quickly."

The sergeant ran to call everyone back.All swordsmen and axemen felt amnesty when they heard the news.

Everyone knows Xiao Zhuo's famous name, and the story of him fighting Xirong here has long been spread.Everyone didn't dare to violate the military order, so they really prepared with their heads tucked into their waistbands.Now that Lin Kui has changed his mind, everyone is very grateful.

Lin Kui handed the jade cup to the sergeant next to him, bowed to Ji Zhong and said, "Mr. Ji, thanks for your reminder. It almost caused a big mistake."

Ji Zhong chuckled, waved his hands and said, "I'm just afraid that you might miss a big deal, and this matter needs to be discussed in a long-term way, so don't be rash."

These words were for Lin Kui, but the old man actually didn't want Xiao Zhuo to be hurt.

Since Xiao Zhuo was six years old, Emperor Yongde ordered him to teach Xiao Zhuo swordsmanship.In the past ten years of cultivation, he has watched Xiao Zhuo grow up almost day by day. Although he only acted according to the order, he also has more or less feelings in it.

Xiao Beiheng found his residence and asked him to come out of the mountain, but he was unwilling at first.But he knew that Xiao Beiheng was a cruel person, if he didn't agree, his family might be dragged down, so he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing Lin Kui arranging the knife and axe in private, the old man interrupted.

Lin Kui also knew in his heart that Ji Zhong must have some private emotions in it.But what they said was indeed reasonable, and Xiao Zhuo's ability was not something to brag about.Everyone knows each other well, and there is no need to tell the truth.After all, Xiao Beiheng wanted Ji Zhong to teach him swordsmanship.

If one plan fails, another plan can be made.Since swords and axes won't work, then use an insidious trick.

Step aside to avoid Ji Zhonghou.He asked the sergeant holding the jade cup to follow him and returned to his camp.Take a pair of poison from the medicine box.

What's bright doesn't make what's dark.

Lin Kui is a doctor himself and knows a lot about medicine.This pair of poison was prepared earlier by him in case of emergency.It is colorless and tasteless when mixed with wine. As long as you drink it, you will bleed to death in a short time.

He took out the wine from his private stash.He himself is usually reluctant to drink this wine, so he poured a pot, sprinkled the poison in it, observed it carefully, and smelled it again, to make sure that there were no flaws.Then another jug ​​of wine was poured.

On the plate are two jugs of wine and two jade cups.

The flagon on the left is not poisonous, it is for Xiao Beiheng to drink.The one on the right has poison, for Xiao Zhuo to drink.

Must be firmly remembered.

Holding the plate in both hands, he walked into the big tent of the banquet.
