Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 356: Humpbacked pockmark
After nightfall, the prime minister's mansion will find all the lanterns and hang them everywhere in the mansion, making a prime minister's mansion in Nuoda look like daytime. The entire mansion was surrounded by 10,000 elite soldiers, and there were guards all over the mansion. Gao Cheng was accompanied by the eminent monk Guangxiao at all times. It seemed that unless tens of thousands of horses came over, it would be impossible for only one or two assassins to succeed.
The highly nervous Gao Cheng didn't plan to go to sleep anymore. He ordered the ceremony officer to be handed over to his house, and gave a speech on the etiquette of tomorrow's ceremony. When the ritual official was teaching etiquette, the prime minister ordered someone to bring over the emperor's costume that he was wearing tomorrow. While listening to the ritual official's lecture on etiquette, he put on the emperor's costume and asked the tailor to keep him by his side to see if there was any need to change it. The place. Guangxiao sat three or five feet away from Gao Cheng, meditating with his eyes closed and cross-legged, as if he was going to fall asleep at any moment.
Seeing that it was coming, Gao Cheng began to panic again, looking at the tailors and ritual officials in front of him, the more he looked, the more he looked like an assassin. At the moment, the prime minister and celebrities shooed them all away, leaving only his close guard and the silent monk Guangxiao in the room.
Seeing Guangxiao's sleepy appearance, Gao Cheng's heart became more and more uncertain. The prime minister raised his voice intentionally, hoping to make the Zen master sober: "Master, if nothing major happens tonight, do you think the person behind the scenes will suddenly attack tomorrow's Zen Ceremony? ..."
Gao Cheng kept talking, but he didn't see the monk Guangxiao wake up. Just when the prime minister was about to wake up the monk himself, a meteor suddenly flashed in the sky, just when the eyes of everyone in the mansion were attracted by the meteor from the sky. With a loud bang, the meteors in the sky suddenly exploded, and after a burst of dazzling light, almost everyone who was looking up at the meteor exploded in front of their eyes, and everything and people around them could not be seen. Although the dazzling light only lasted for a few days,
The sudden blindness of otherwise good eyes made these people terrified. After a while, cursing, exclamations and weeping came one after another. Fortunately, none of these people in the room noticed the vision in the sky outside, and they were among the few people who were not blinded by the abnormal explosion of the meteor.
But at the moment when the meteor exploded, all the candles and lanterns in the Prime Minister's residence were suddenly extinguished in an instant. The mansion, which was originally bright as day, turned pitch black at this time. The guards who were standing beside Gao Cheng couldn't ignore the surprise, and took out the fire box and the fire sickle to rekindle the candles and lanterns. However, it was only at this time that they discovered that the cotton wick inside the candle burned out in an instant. Now all the candles have become candle sticks one by one.
"Butler! Bring the candles..." The head of the guard opened the door and shouted into the night. However, his shouts were quickly drowned out by the moans and cries of countless people. At this time, the butler's eyes were also white, let alone sending candles, it was impossible to come over.
"Master Guangxiao! It should be now..." Gao Cheng groped for Guangxiao's position in the darkness. At this time, he realized that the monk who was sitting here had disappeared. Unexpectedly, at this time, the monk Guangxiao, regardless of Gao Cheng's people, sneaked away secretly...
Now it's pitch black outside, and the screams of countless people can be heard everywhere. After Gao Cheng hesitated for a while, he still didn't dare to leave here easily, after all, there are still these guards here. Once you go out and walk with them, it will be even more dangerous.
"Don't need any candles anymore. Now that we light candles is someone else's target." Gao Cheng followed his father Gao Huan to fight in the South and the North all the year round. After a moment of panic, he calmed down immediately. After instructing the guards not to act rashly, they gradually began to adapt to the dark environment. The distance that can be seen in front of him is also a lot farther, and in the courtyard outside the house, there are guards everywhere who are covering their eyes and screaming.
After his eyes got used to the darkness, Gao Cheng and the guards carefully walked out of the room, groping for the back door in the dark. In this situation, there must be a monk who killed him. It is too dangerous to stay in the mansion. It is better to leave early. Although there is still a formation formed by Guangxiao in the big room, but the formation must be invalid without the others.
But just as Gao Cheng and his guards were groping towards the back door, there was a loud noise at the gate, and then there was light in the dark night. I saw a hunchbacked old man walking in through the gate with a dilapidated lantern in his hand. Looking through the light of the lantern, there were dark brown pockmarks densely packed on the browned skin.
After seeing the group of people walking towards the back door, the hunchbacked pockmark smiled and opened his mouth to reveal his black-spotted teeth and festered gums. He said to Gao Cheng and the others: "Prime Minister, are you going to leave now? Can you leave that thing behind before you leave? After tossing around for so long, even people like Guangxiao have offended you. Just go, what about me? Leave that thing, and none of you can leave without thinking about living."
At this time, the blind know that this person is the mastermind behind the scenes. Immediately, the guard leader pointed to the four guards in front of him and said, "This person dares to assassinate the Prime Minister, you go up and cut this man into pieces!" As soon as his voice fell, the four guards he was referring to pulled out their waist knives and faced the hunchback. Mazi rushed up. At the same time, the guard led Gao Cheng to turn around and quickly ran towards the back door.
The four guards who rushed towards the hunchback pockmark just now knew in their hearts that there was absolutely no way to hurt this person with their own abilities. All they had to do was delay for a moment for Gao Cheng to escape. However, when these guards rushed to the hunchback pockmark two or three feet away, the four of them knelt on the ground almost at the same time.
The four began to tremble violently. After a while, the flesh of the four guards began to rot rapidly. After struggling a few times, they all gasped. As if the hunchbacked pockmark didn't see it, he slowly followed the position where Gao Cheng and the others fled.
Just when the hunchback Mazi chased five or six feet away, a figure flickered in front of him, and he saw Guangxiao, who had just disappeared, standing in front of the hunchback. After looking up and down the hunchback Mazi, he still shook his head and said, "Mazi, where have we met before? You can't be a new born person..."
Hisaka disappeared suddenly, just to attract this person to appear. Originally, he thought that the person behind the scenes must be an old acquaintance he hadn't seen for many years, but he didn't expect that after seeing the appearance of the hunchbacked pockmark, Guangxiao couldn't remember where he had seen this person at all. If the average person has seen it a few times and forgets his appearance, it is understandable, but if he looks at a surprised appearance like a hunchbacked pockmark, he will never forget it in his life.
"Don't think about it, Mr. Guangxiao, we haven't seen each other." Humpbacked pockmark saw Guangxiao's thoughts, and after a hehe smiled, he continued: "I have been living in seclusion in the wilderness for so many years, and I have hardly had contact with outsiders. How can you possibly have an impression of me, Mr. Guangxiao?"
Guangxiao nodded slightly as if he understood, and then said again: "Although your face is new, the technique of this body is familiar to you. This is the technique of Wentianlou back then, and now you can use it like this. There are only a few people who can master the magic skills. Except for the two landlords who have already traveled in Xianyou, the most famous one is Yuan Chang. Obviously, you are not that monk. Then there is only one possibility. One of the four pillars of teaching together with the two owners..."
Hearing that Guangxiao had revealed his identity, the hunchbacked pockmark was stunned for a moment. Just when he was about to say something, the monk on the opposite side had already moved his hand. Guangxiao took a step forward, and his body teleported directly in front of Humpback Mazi. She stretched out her right index finger and tapped it against her hunchbacked chest.
"Bang!" After a sound, the hunchback pockmark was kicked out from a distance, Guang Xiao smiled slightly, got up and walked towards the position where the hunchback landed...
