drag prince

Chapter 20

In this way, the itinerary of play is gradually coming to an end amidst Jian Lirong's myriad of thoughts.

This day, a group of seven people went for an outing in the outskirts of the ancient city of Fenghuang. At noon, they discussed the return journey while having lunch under the shade of a tree by the lake.The sudden change occurred without warning.

A flying arrow was shot from the dense forest in the distance, and the target turned out to be a camellia!

With the sound of the wind piercing through the air, the flying arrow was caught by Yu Longtian when it was half a meter away from the camellia, and then he threw it hard with his backhand, and the flying arrow returned the same way.

There was a mournful cry in the dense forest, it seemed that the assassin had reaped the fruit.

But before Yu Longtian and the others went into the dense forest to find out what happened, a group of masked men in black rushed out of the dense forest with gleaming long knives and attacked them.

Yu Longtian was really good at kung fu, one against ten.Zhang Huwei was not bad either, he knocked down two or three at once.And Xuan Fu was also good at martial arts, while defending against the attack of the man in black, he asked Jian Li to allow them to get on the carriage first and leave.

Jian Lirong and Camellia supported each other into the carriage in a panic, Doctor Chen and Butler Yu couldn't wait to whip their horses and run away before they could sit still.

A sharp-eyed man in black realized that they were planning to retreat first, so he caught up with him quickly, and slashed at the horse's leg with a knife.

Although he didn't cut it, the frightened horse kicked and neighed, and galloped recklessly on the avenue, throwing the butler Yu who was not grasping firmly.

Although Dr. Chen tried desperately to control the mad horse, his hands were bloodstained by the reins, but he couldn't help it.

Under the wild gallop of the frightened horse, the carriage quickly deviated from the road.With a stagger, the horse and the cart turned over from the slope beside the avenue!

Under the impact, the two people in the carriage were also thrown out.Seeing that Jian Lirong was about to fall headlong on the rocky road, he was grabbed by the camellia, and the two rolled down the slope together in a hug.

Jian Lirong vaguely heard Xuan Yuan and the others' exclamation, but the men in black were still emerging, which really made them unable to do so.

The rolling finally stopped, Jian Lirong only felt pain all over his body, staring at his eyes, and couldn't get up after struggling for a long time.The slope is covered with gravel, and there are probably many wounds on his body, large and small.But he can't take care of these now, because the camellia pressing on his body is limp, without any strength.

"Brother Zi'an! What's wrong with you? Where are you injured?" Jian Lirong tried to sit up, shaking the camellia in her arms.

"Hmm..." Camellia snorted and said weakly, "I'm fine."

"There's nothing wrong with this!" Jian Lirong, who felt a hand full of blood from the back of Camellia's neck, was stunned, "Don't die, brother Zi'an, what should I do... what should I do..."

"Probably just scratched the skin, don't worry." The injured Camellia comforted Jian Lirong in turn.

Jian Lirong looked around, wanting to ask Yu Longtian and the others for help, but what she saw was the man in black who was killing them with a knife.

Jian Lirong hurriedly supported the camellia to choose a way to escape, and was overtaken within two steps.Seeing that the camellia was about to be killed by the knife, Jian Lirong pushed hard and pushed the camellia down, and then heard the sound of the knife piercing into the flesh.Jian Lirong, who was stabbed in the back, fell to the ground under the impact, cough, it hurts!

The target of the man in black seemed to be the camellia from the beginning to the end. After cutting down Jian Lirong, he immediately slashed at the camellia, and was killed by Yu Longtian who came up to him exclaiming Jian Lirong's name...

><

Jian Lirong has lived for 19 years, and has never encountered such a thing of using a knife or a gun. What's more, she was stabbed with a white knife in and a red knife out.

Although the knife didn't hit a vital point, it was fine under Dr. Chen's rescue, but he had a high fever after being frightened by the assassination.

Yu Longtian looked at Jian Lirong lying unconscious on the bed, and the word "Chuan" was deeply wrinkled between his brows.

She clearly said she would stay by his side, but failed to protect him.

Damn it!Why is this kid still awake?

Yu Longtian stretched out his hand to touch Jian Lirong's forehead, the temperature was still very high.

"Hmm..." Jian Lirong hummed weakly.

"Xiao Rong, are you awake?" Yu Longtian asked impatiently.

Because her back was injured, Jian Lirong, who had been sleeping on her stomach, woke up and said sullenly: "It's so uncomfortable to lie on my stomach."

"Want to get up?"

"Ah."

With the help of Yu Longtian, Jian Lirong sat up, in order not to touch the wound on his back, he could only lean sideways in Yu Longtian's arms.

"How is Zi'an?"

Unexpectedly, the first thing Jian Lirong did when he woke up was to ask Lu Zian. Yu Longtian said angrily, "Worry about yourself first! He's fine."

"Great." Jian Lirong was relieved and continued to ask, "Is the injury on my back serious?"

"There is no spinal injury. Doctor Chen said that it will be back to normal after ten days and a half months of recuperation."

"Really? I thought I was going to die this time. I didn't expect my life to be so hard that even Lord Hades wouldn't dare to accept it." Jian Lirong smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Don't say such unlucky words. I won't allow you to die."

Jian Lirong's heart warmed, and she rubbed her head against Yu Longtian's neck.

Yu Longtian rubbed his hair helplessly: "Why are you so troubled?"

"Maybe I'm guilty of Tai Sui this year."

><

Because of the wound, Jian Lirong stayed here for a week.

At first, he suffered a lot because of unconsciously turning over while falling asleep, so it turned out that Yu Longtian couldn't protest when he was hugged to sleep every night.

After seven days, Jian Lirong, who was able to get out of bed and jump around, finally made the worried and guilty Camellia regain her smile.

"I just find it strange, how could brother Zi'an have enemies? The killers at that time were obviously targeting brother Zi'an, and they also shot with the ruthlessness of killing people." When Jian Lirong asked this question , the depths of the dark and bright pupils that were as black as ink dyed by Xuan's black ink surged darkly, and the phalanges of the tightly clenched fist turned white.

"The killer is coming for me." Xuan Yuan said in a deep voice.

"I said, you don't look like Brother Zi'an at all. If it's someone who wants to kill you, how could he not know what you look like?"

"It's because of the jade pendant."

"what?!"

"On the eve of the assassination, I just gave Zian the Dragon Tongue Jade that I carried with me since childhood..."

"So, the killer really doesn't know what you look like?"

"It's not surprising. These killers are all hired in Jianghu. When describing the characteristics of the target, they may use the jade pendant as the standard. After all, Xuanyuan's Dragon Tongue Jade has been worn since childhood, and it is a symbol of his status." Yu Yu Long Tian explained.

"Brother, do you have any clues about the mastermind behind the scenes?"

"This has yet to be investigated after returning to Beijing. Although the killers of that day survived, they all committed suicide by taking poison, so they didn't ask anything." Xuan Yuan's tone was as cold as ice, and it seemed that this incident really touched him. The reverse scale. "We'll go back when your injury heals."

"It's better to hit the sun than choose another day. The injury is no longer serious. I also want to go home soon."
