Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 189

A mouth that has been opened means that speaking is effective, and what you say will happen.

Such is the case with the enlightened mind.

Just when Shen Xi happily bought a portion of sugar-fried chestnuts, one for me and one for the other, a silver sword suddenly appeared in the crowd, chilling under the light, and aimed directly at Xiao Che.

The surrounding guards were waiting for an opportunity to move, but they all stopped when they saw Qin Zhao's gesture.

I don't know who shouted: "Killer!"

The crowd that had been quiet for three seconds suddenly began to boil. The assassin was struggling to move through the crowd. Naturally, the sword just missed Xiao Che, and even the edge of the sword was broken by Xiao Che.

Many people are powerful, and the assassins are also aware of this problem.

Of course, they are well-trained, well-trained and organized assassins, and they have imagined everything that will happen now before they came, although the reality is much crueler than imagined.

The leader of the assassin stood on the tallest restaurant and looked at the surging crowd below calmly. He was fine, if he couldn't kill Xiao Che, he would be squeezed to death, well, this is also death.

Thousands of people squeezed into one place at the same time, screaming and cursing one after another, the scene is no longer a single spectacular scene that can be described.

The assassins guarding the heights were also at a loss. Just now they were able to accurately find Xiao Che, but now that the crowd is crowded, Xiao Che and Shen Xi seem to have disappeared into the crowd, and they can't find them no matter how hard they look.

People should be there, unless Xiao Che can hide, otherwise he can't disappear from their sight, but there are too many people and he can't see clearly for a while.

Anxiety is contagious. People who might have nothing to do are now anxious, for fear that they will die if they run too late.

And so the famous stampede began to happen.

At first, their shoes were trampled off, and then some of their clothes were torn, some of their masks were pushed out, and some even snatched people's money bags.

If the assassin found out, he would definitely feel ashamed.

Look at others, how much this professionalism is worth learning.

Someone fell down, and at first the people behind would let him go, but later, some people only cared about their eyes and ignored their feet, and squeezed over when they saw that there was free time.

It was too late for him to think about the touch under his feet. The instinct of survival filled his mind, and so did the latecomers.

Xiao Che had no choice but to face this situation, he was not a god after all, he could only try his best to protect Shen Xi in his arms, preventing her from being alone.

As for the assassin hiding in the crowd, he could only passively squeeze around, watching Xiao Che and Shen Xi get farther and farther away from him, but he had no chance to strike.

When the crowd dispersed, Xiao Che and Shen Xi also disappeared.

The assassin looked at the sword in his hand before it could be unsheathed, and was stunned.

They really didn't expect that there would be so many people here.

It's okay if one assassination is unsuccessful, there will be a second one.

That night, they decided to go all out and go straight to Huanglong.

Having inquired about where Xiao Che was staying early, they were going to kill him directly.

The accident just now can't prove anything, this time is the time to really show their strength.

At night, two men in night clothes sneaked onto the roof, and when they were about to lift the tiles, they were suddenly hit on the head by their companions.

"Idiot, who told you that Xiao Che lived on the top floor?"

The person who was beaten was also confused: "Then why did you bring me to the top floor?"

"Didn't you come here by yourself?"

The man thought about it, and it seemed to be the case.

"Then what do we do now?"

"From the backyard, I have already seen it."

To kill, one must kill by surprise.

In the room where Xiao Che lived, there was a window facing the backyard. There was a protruding wooden board outside the window, which was originally used to put flower pots, but the flower pots fell off yesterday, and now they are empty.

The two of them could just step on that plank.

After confirming that this is really the place where Xiao Che lives, the assassin who wanted to lift the tiles wet his fingertips and was about to pierce the window paper, but found...

unbreakable...

Uh... a little embarrassing.

The other person shook his head hating iron and steel, and slightly raised the window to reveal a gap, signaling him to blow into it right now.

Finally, I took out the misty smoke and stuffed it into the crack of the window, and blew it for a while.

It's over.

They bought this smoke at a high price, and it is absolutely useful.

Sure enough, within a moment, there was a slight snoring sound from inside.

You're done!

The two assassins immediately opened the window, and walked lightly to Xiao Che and Shen Xi's bed.

It's just that neither of them had killed anyone before, and they were a little unfamiliar for a while.

Both of them raised their swords and signaled with their eyes: "Are you going?"

Another person: "You go!"

"I can not."

"waste."

"Then you go?"

"……Together."

So it was a happy decision.

The two closed their eyes, and when they raised their swords and were about to stab the bed, there was a sharp pain in the back of their necks, and their eyes went completely dark.

Shen Xi sat on the chair and shook her head disappointedly: "That's it?"

The oil lamp was lit, and Qin Zhao tied up the two assassins expressionlessly, and checked them for any other sharp weapons and tokens, and whether they had poison in their mouths.

It's just that Qin Zhao really underestimated their professionalism.

No sharp weapon, no token, and nothing in his mouth.

"My lord, this sword is just an ordinary sword."

Xiao Che stood up slowly, the disdain in his eyes could fill the moat: "Wang Yi is really... hungry."

They were watched from the start.

From the moment they entered the crowd, the hidden guards had already discovered their existence, but Xiao Che wanted to see who exactly Wang Yi had invited over.

In fact, Wang Yi can't be blamed for this. It's not that he hasn't found someone from the dark cabinet, but he has never been successful, and the price of the dark cabinet is so high that he can't bear the money.

So he sent someone to find a professional team of assassins to do this. There are many assassination organizations in the world, and it is really easy to find one.

The person he sent was also unreliable and greedy for money.

In addition, this assassin group is fledgling, so the asking price is not too high, but the leader of the assassins has a three-inch tongue, and abruptly described them as the tragic situation of outsiders who had to bow their heads to reality due to life. .

So Wang Yi's people were moved.

After going back, he repeated what the assassin leader said, and then asked Wang Yi for some money, saying that such a high price is the price for people of this rank.

Wang Yi is also well versed in the principle that you get what you pay for, so he allocated another 1 taels in addition to the 2000 taels already given.

Little did they know that this gang of 30 assassins only spent 900 taels in total.

　Assassin leader: Why is the black-hearted middleman earning 100 taels!

　　Middleman: Because you are cheap!
