Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 168 Assassination
After getting on the horse and preparing the sedan chair, Fan Xian did not bring many people with him on this trip, only Wang Qinian and Su Wenmao accompanied him, and Shi Chanli was directly sent by Fan Xian to the vicinity of the temple to investigate the situation again under the pretext of deploying defenses by the Overwatch Council. The secrets of the two dark passages.

Fan Xian didn't intend to go straight to the Minister's Mansion and talk straight to the point with the minister of the Ministry of Industry who are you now, who are you working for, are you trying to harm me, are you hiding two things? There is a secret way to get some killers to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor. He didn't mention a word about these things.

It was just after entering the gate of Shangshu's mansion, he said hello under the unfavorable expression of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

After all, there is no such thing as going to the court. Not only must it be reported to the Ministry of Education, but even the Overwatch Council must follow the rules to ensure that the minister is healthy and whether there are other various circumstances. These things are usually as follows People should do it. Of course, when the minister of the Ministry of Industry did not come to court, someone from the Overwatch Council had already come to ask.

The ministries of the imperial court didn't have the slightest favor for the Overwatch Council, and the Minister of Industry was the same.
The Ministry of Industry is in charge of all the fortification management agencies in the Qing Kingdom. It is in charge of civil construction projects, arrangements for the use of utensils, renovation projects for canals and weirs, and management of land properties, etc.

These matters often involve a large amount of capital flow, and there is no connection between the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households. The Ministry of Industry will directly report the required silver to the Ministry of Education, and then the Ministry of Education will submit it to the Prime Minister for review. The Prime Minister agrees, and then let His Majesty decide. If Your Majesty agrees, then the Prime Minister will allocate the money to the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Households will allocate money to the Ministry of Works to carry out various fortifications.

Once the procedures are complicated, problems are inevitable, and there is the work of the Overwatch Council.

When Zhu Ge was in power, he was a person who was in charge of law enforcement, so not only did he find a lot of work in the Ministry of Industry, but even Lord Shang Shu went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to confront Zhu Ge.

Now seeing Fan Xian's Secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he obviously doesn't have a good temper.

But this time, Fan Xian just came here to inquire about the health of the other party, asked about the other party's health, and said a lot of things about how the other party was going to perform sacrifices and what the Lord Shangshu should pay attention to. The attitude of the agency sponsor has eased a little.

The two chatted and laughed, and after having tea for a while, Fan Xian actually left from the Ministry of Industry Shangshu's mansion without mentioning the two secret passages that happened.

Sitting on the carriage back to the Overwatch Council, Fan Xian heaved a long sigh.Wang Qinian, who was driving at the door, asked while driving, "My lord's temptations are becoming more and more rigorous now, even I, the spy who came with questions, didn't understand that my lord talked with that Shangshu for so long, and that Shangshu said Such an important clue came out."

"Shangshu?" Fan Xian glanced at Wang Qinian suspiciously, and then suddenly realized, "You mean the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, what's wrong with him?"

"Ah?" Wang Qinian looked at Fan Xian puzzled, "Didn't it mean that these two secret ways are related to him?"

"That must be related." Fan Xian said in a small way, "And it's a huge relationship. These two secret passages are likely to hide a huge conspiracy."

"Then..." Wang Qinian looked at Fan Xian in shock, "My lord, I don't understand this, since it's all like this, why don't we arrest him?"

"What are you arresting without evidence?" Fan Xian said with a smile, "Did you plan to run away without seeing him?"

"Ah?" Wang Qinian blinked suspiciously.

"Did you see anyone when you went to his house?" Fan Xian asked.

"It seems that there is no one else but him." Wang Qinian replied.

"This lord, not only built a secret path in the temple, he also built a secret path in his own home. When we came, I deliberately placed the carriage in a conspicuous place, so that they would stare at our carriage." Fan Xian said calmly, "Didn't you notice that someone is missing?"

"Su Wenmao told me..." Wang Qinian was startled, and then he looked at Fan Xian suddenly, "Your Excellency is so meticulous, you know so many things just after setting foot in the mansion!"

Fan Xian said calmly, "Oh, that's not true. I knew before that the spies already knew where they were going. They were going to Jiangnan Road. Mrs. Shangshu and his girl had already arrived in Jiangnan territory."

Wang Qinian nodded knowingly, "I see."

Fan Xian sighed and said, "This time I figured out some things."

"What is it?" Wang Qinian asked.

Fan Xian sighed, "Our Highness the Crown Prince may also be involved in this matter. It seems that the people we have to face this time are not just one or two."

"Your Excellency, you mean that His Highness the Crown Prince will assassinate the Emperor...?" Wang Qinian's courage naturally did not dare to continue.

Fan Xian actually smiled, "Don't worry, no one dares to take action. His Majesty's safety is unquestionable, but those who should be worried most are those who are responsible for the defense. After all, they are the ones who are responsible for this time , the most likely to be targeted.”

Wang Qinian turned his head and gave Fan Xian a meaningful look.

On the day of the sacrifice.

Before the sun rose, the Overwatch Council had completely protected the entire temple.

With the intervention of the Jingdu city garrison, Fan Xian didn't think much about it, and directly pulled out all the security forces from one area, and arrived near the gate. After all, his job was not to protect the entire temple used for the sacrificial ceremony. What he wanted to protect was His Majesty the Emperor.

Fan Xian's clothes today are more convenient for movement. He didn't choose those more expensive clothes, but he just needs to be convenient for movement. After all, he was not a sacrifice, let alone being sacrificed, and his eyes were not on him.But other than him, no one else thought so, including his father Fan Jian.

When eating this morning, Fan Xian thought that something was wrong with this old man. When Fan Jian swaggered into the temple from outside, Fan Xian smiled. Liu Ruyu was also not jealous, but it seems that today's Dressing up, Liu Ruyu didn't know the relationship between Fan Jian and Ye Qingmei.

Of course Fan Xian didn't know either.

It's just that now Liu Ruyu has probably confirmed the affair between Fan Jian and Ye Qingmei. Ye Qingmei, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, has given birth to Fan Jian's child behind so many people's faces. This made Liu Ruyu a little confused later, but it's okay Even Fan Xian and Fan Jian's ability to fool is superhuman, Liu Ruyu has basically forgotten about this matter.

Fan Jian was decked out in splendor, brocade robes and brocade clothes revealing that the court officials with the richest wallets in the Qing Dynasty, the important ministers of dukes and titles had already entered the temple, and Fan Xian should go up because of emotion and reason. say hi.Simply Fan Xian came over, "Dad's clothes are really interesting."

"What's interesting?" Fan Jian asked cheerfully.

"It's like you came to sacrifice." Fan Xian joked.

Fan Jian's face frowned slightly, thinking he couldn't beat his son in this place, right?He glanced left and right, and it was all right, so he walked up to Fan Xian and asked in a low voice, "How are you getting ready?"

"It's just step-by-step, nothing special." Fan Xian wasn't afraid of what his father would say nonsense, he just didn't want the old man to worry, he said, "It's just that there are some small things that aren't right, but they've all been taken care of. "

Fan Jian was very relieved about his child, since he said it was handled properly, it must be properly handled.

"What did His Majesty arrange for you today?" Fan Jian asked.

"It's Dean Chen's statement that he acted accordingly after he arrived at the scene. As for His Majesty, he hasn't negotiated with him yet, so he doesn't know." Fan Xian said.

The father and son stood right in front of the temple gate. The Overwatch Council was responsible for the things that the officials who came in were carrying. Even the people around the emperor, eunuchs and father-in-law had to check, so when the second prince and the crown prince entered, they also The inspection was done by Fan Xian himself.

"Master Fan is really busy." His Highness the Crown Prince said to Fan Xian, who was checking himself, with his hands stretched out.

Fan Xian said tactfully, "Your Highness has praised you, the people of the Qing Dynasty should do their duty for the Qing Dynasty's affairs."

After saying this, Fan Xian also finished his inspection, and made way for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to walk in.

The prince didn't say anything to Fan Xian, and walked directly into the temple.

The laws of the Qing Kingdom are very strict. Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the first person to enter the sacrificial temple before His Majesty the Emperor, so when the Crown Prince entered, all the civil and military officials and officials who participated in the sacrificial offerings were quiet. Branched out at the place where he was, lined up neatly and waited for His Majesty the Emperor to arrive.

The Tiger Guards are responsible for the personal safety of His Majesty the Emperor. Today, not only the Tiger Guards, but also the Kyoto garrison have greeted us at the gate of the imperial city, but after all, it is in the suburbs of the capital city, and of course it is considered the boundary of the capital city, so the emperor's sacrifice this time Just brought thirty tiger guards.But the garrison has already mobilized.

The second prince led the horse and led the garrison towards the temple. After arriving at the gate, the tiger guards around the emperor got off their horses immediately and walked up to the dragon sedan chair. Said, "Your Majesty, the sacrificial ceremony is going on as scheduled, and the internal arrangements have been made properly, and it can start at any time."

"Let's get started." After the emperor finished speaking, Eunuch Hou lifted the curtain of the carriage and helped His Majesty out of the carriage. His Majesty's side and rear.

At this time, the man with the greatest power in Qing Kingdom entered the temple step by step.

Civil and military officials are listed on both sides, and the middle is the passageway for His Majesty to walk. Along the way, he walked into the hall.

The temple is divided into three foyers, the front hall, the middle hall and the side hall.

The front hall is the place where the common people offer incense and worship Buddha on weekdays. After all, it is a temple dedicated to the Qing Dynasty. The incense here is endless and unusually prosperous.The central hall was where the royal family worshiped. Fan Xian and the others had no chance to look up to what was there. After all, the temple administrators were the Tiger Guards on weekdays, and no one else would be allowed to enter.

The side hall is where Fan Xian is now. The place where the fourteen yellow papers are hung upside down is the place where Fan Xian met Lin Wan'er. At this time, Fan Xian could still smell the aroma of the chicken legs.

The emperor strode directly in.Fan Xian looked at the star-studded emperor leading the First Prince who had just recovered from his injuries, the high-spirited Second Prince, the scheming Crown Prince, and the immature-looking Third Prince. When they entered the temple at the same time, his His heart was not as sad as he imagined.

After walking through the front hall all the way, all the civil and military officials were on standby in this place.

And only the members of the royal family walked towards the central hall afterwards.

Fan Xian looked at him calmly.

Undercurrents surge--

Fan Xian enjoyed a moment of ease. All his people entered the front hall. At this time, Fan Xian stopped at the boundary not far in front of the middle hall, and the rest of the middle hall was strictly guarded by the garrison. In the middle hall inside, the tiger guards alone protect the safety of His Majesty the Emperor. From this point of view, the entire protection is completely seamless, and there is no problem.

Inside are the permanent personnel in the temple. The supervision of these personnel is not the responsibility of the Overwatch Council, nor the garrison, but the Ministry of Rites. As for the sacrificial personnel, they all come from Dali Temple and Hong Kong Temple. The Ministry of Rites and Dali Temple are respectively responsible for people from all walks of life in Lusi Temple, from ritual education to etiquette, to ancestor worship.

After taking a breath, Fan Xian sat with his father holding a teacup. At this time, Fan Jian said, "One of the statues in this temple is the portrait of your mother. Have you seen it?"

Fan Xian was startled, "My mother is not a Bodhisattva, why would you enshrine a statue of my mother here?"

"It's not that it must be your mother." Fan Jian said with a smile, "It's a faceless stone statue with its back facing the priest, but His Majesty once said it was your mother, and the craftsman also based on the It was created by your mother's figure and posture, so I always thought that it was your mother's image."

Fan Xian nodded. In fact, there was nothing Fan Xian could care about. After all, for Fan Xian, it was too outrageous to regard a stone as his mother. Concept, after all, I have never met the woman who sees the men of the world clearly.

Looking at his father in front of him, Fan Xian still smiled and said softly, "What is the content of the sacrifice?"

Fan Jian said calmly, "It's just about the affairs of the family, the country, and the world. You have to ask His Majesty the Emperor for the specifics. After all, I have never been in there before."

Fan Xian nodded.

There are still many miscellaneous things in the Qing Dynasty and they are relatively complicated. After all, this is a dynasty with a new king and faction, and the Qing Dynasty has only been passed down for two or three generations. The people of the dynasty have a belief and an idea, and the collection of this belief and idea is the temple.

The temple entrusts the dynasty's future luck and other matters, and it is almost omnipotent. In short, it doesn't matter whether it is autumn rain, twin births, or even going to Beijing to rush for the exam, and the temple takes care of all weddings and funerals. The temple has gradually become more important in everyone's eyes. In addition, in the past ten years, it is not only the fact that the temple really prayed, but also the rumors spread in the palace. The temple can pray and bless the common people in the world. This thing is solid.

So now basically when there is a festival or nothing to do on weekdays, everyone will go to the temple to worship and burn incense to pray for blessings.

Just when Fan Xian was idle, a person hurriedly came from outside. Looking closely, it was His Majesty's personal eunuch, Eunuch Hou, the great eunuch.

"Where is Fan Xian, Fengzheng of Taixue?" Facing the black and white officials, Eunuch Hou didn't shy away from it, and shouted directly at the top of his voice.

When Fan Xian heard that he was calling himself, he first raised his eyes and glanced at his father, Fan Jian, who was in front of him. Fan Jian nodded, "Go ahead, there must be something wrong. If you encounter something, you must first watch it carefully."

"En." Fan Xian nodded to indicate that he had received the other party's instructions, and then he stood up and walked in front of Eunuch Hou.

Eunuch Hou saw Fan Xian coming, and the relationship between the two was good. He had a smile on his face, and Fan Xian knew that it was a good thing to find him. Then he seemed to want the narrator to hear it on purpose. Said, "Your Majesty has a decree, the Imperial Academy honors Fan Xian, and enters the central hall to offer sacrifices!"

As soon as this remark came out, Fan Xian was taken aback.

He was stunned, and the civil and military officials beside him were even more stunned.

What does it mean?
Leaving aside that Fan Xian may have been accused of treason recently, just because of the rule that Fan Xian is not a member of the royal family, he cannot go in to offer sacrifices.

But just thinking about these words, no one dared to pick them up and speak.

Fan Xian immediately said respectfully, "Thank you Your Majesty, Fan Xian accepts the order."

Afterwards, these two people came together like friends, and Eunuch Hou who was beside him lightly smiled at Fan Xian, "Master Fan, you are really eye-catching this time. Hall sacrifice, this is an opportunity that has been impossible for many years, His Majesty has set a precedent for Xiao Fan."

"I don't know what's in front of me, I don't know what road ahead." Fan Xian sighed and smiled, "What exactly is worshiping inside?"

"Hey! Master Xiaofan, please be careful. It is something that can only be worshiped by the royal family of Daqing. You must not despise the temple. This is disrespectful to our Daqing royal family. You must be cautious in your words and deeds." Ah! Be careful!" Eunuch Hou looked worried, fearing that if this little Master Fan uttered nonsense, if he offended His Majesty today, a few heads would not be enough to cut off.

Fan Xian just raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything.

The grandeur of the central hall was incomparable from the outside, so Fan Xian was overwhelmed by what was in front of him when he walked in. He thought with a smile in his heart, if Yu Zhenzi was in this place at this time, he would definitely be overjoyed.

The central hall is full of beautiful eyes, and the four big characters of Taiji and Bagua are written in the letter. It must have been written by his mother who dominates the world. Fan Xian is still rare to see such an extraordinary and extraordinary fool.

However, there are some things in it that can be studied. One side is Zuoshan, and the four heavenly kings of pipa and qinse are standing horizontally. The place will deliberately make those statues old because they want to highlight the sense of age, or they are really worried about something, so that they are not as scary as their real appearance.

But at this time, the four heavenly kings in front of them are all freshly painted, and the weapons in their hands are directly made of real iron, so lifelike!Those eight eyeballs seemed to be bleeding.

Fan Xian didn't show any disrespect to such a place and such furnishings, nor did he feel any sense of humbleness. He just calmly walked through the entrance and came to the main hall. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor brought his four The two sons were offering sacrifices peacefully in this place. Fan Xian was rather curious about what they were offering sacrifices to, but he didn't see anything after all.

The things on the incense burner case were covered by hundreds of layers of white gauze, and the face inside could not be seen at all, but seeing the pious look of His Majesty the Emperor, Fan Xian did not dare to say more. After entering the room Fan Xian just stood aside quietly, the closest to him was His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and he seemed to have finished offering incense.

When he saw Fan Xian, he was also very contemptuous, but fortunately, the two of them didn't have any deep hatred, it was just some small festivals, Fan Xian just glanced at the third prince indifferently, and then skipped it.

His Majesty the Emperor slowly straightened up after finishing the stick of incense. He took the handkerchief handed over by the maid beside him, wiped his hands clean, and then asked, "Is there nothing wrong outside?"

"Go back to Father, everything is fine."

It was obvious that Fan Xian had just been called in, but the person who answered the question was actually His Royal Highness the Second Prince who rushed to speak. After he finished speaking, he calmly glanced at Fan Xian, and continued to say to his father, "It's very peaceful today, and there are no suspicious people around. Moreover, I carefully screened the people who entered the capital city in recent days, and no one with any problems entered the capital city. Some warriors and my ministers also sent People followed."

Emperor Qing nodded appreciatively, walked among the princes, and said to Fan Xian, "You too, come to offer incense sticks."

Fan Xian and the surrounding princes were all taken aback, but this was His Majesty's will, who can say anything, of course Fan Xian didn't dare to talk too much, if they ask you to worship, do so, will there be any loss of meat or something? Fan Xian simply walked over, took three sticks of incense from Eunuch Hou who was prepared, and bowed respectfully to the unknown thing in front of him.

Fan Xian walked up to the thing, and inserted the three sticks of incense into the incense burner, and with this movement, Fan Xian stood upright!

The light reflected from the bronze stove in front of him just happened to see a sword protruding from the beam behind him!

There is also a pair of cold to terrifying eyes!

Perhaps at the same moment, those eyes saw Fan Xian!
Fan Xian, who turned his head suddenly, looked straight up!

no one!

Where is the person?

under!

Fan Xian shot directly with the short sword in his right hand. After all, he was the deputy director of the First Division of the Overwatch Council, and the purpose of holding the weapon was for protection!

And at the moment of the shot, Fan Xian's position had already fallen. The position where the person on the roof jumped was just behind him, and Fan Xian was at the front of the central hall. The distance from the assassin and the distance from the emperor to the assassin are just right!
No one can delay for a second!

Fan Xian rushed out immediately, but it was already too late!unless……

At this moment, Fan Xian didn't care about any life at all, and pulled the third prince away from him!
The third prince and the assassin are only one step away.

The moment the assassin slid to the ground, Fan Xian had already arrived!It can be seen that Fan Xian's speed is very fast.

As soon as the assassin landed, Fan Xian had already reacted to it. The opponent was instantly certain and pulled back, obviously missing the opportunity. Then he shot a dart from behind desperately, heading straight for His Majesty the Emperor of Qing!

Fan Xian didn't stop to look around, he pulled the third prince behind him, and with the dagger in his right hand, he directly knocked down the dart in the air.At this very moment, Fan Xian's gaze met the Emperor's gaze. The Emperor was already hiding behind the pillars behind him, but the danger was not over yet!

In an instant, the three Tiger Guards had surrounded the assassin, and it was only a later story for the assassin to find a way to escape.

At this time, Fan Xian shouted sharply, "Be careful, Your Majesty!"

The emperor was taken aback, his reaction was obviously not as sharp as that of Fan Xian who had practiced martial arts, he shook his head from side to side in a little haste.

And Fan Xian didn't expect the old man, who was sitting in the imperial study every day, to have a quick reaction. The moment he let go of the third prince, he galloped away. lights up.

Only then did the emperor react, a court lady behind him stabbed the emperor's vest with the first knife!
The emperor staggered and dodged a few steps forward, but these few steps could not keep him out of danger. The second knife of the court lady followed up, seeing that the emperor was leaning against the pillar and there was no way to retreat!

"Dang!" What the dagger hit was not the emperor's flesh and blood, but the dark crossbow mechanism on the back of Fan Xian's hand.

When the strength of this strike appeared in Fan Xian's hands, he knew exactly what the opponent's strength was.

It was at this moment that all the tiger guards outside the door walked in, and the garrison immediately dispatched to surround the entire central hall.

Fan Xian directly turned around and slashed out with a sword. Although the court lady subconsciously dodged, but Fan Xian was a ninth-rank strength, and the opponent didn't even understand martial arts at all. Of course, it was inevitable. Swipe forward, the opponent's dagger fell and fell to the ground.

"Guard!" Fan Xian shouted.

The surrounding tiger guards immediately surrounded the emperor.

Fan Xian saw that His Majesty was temporarily out of danger, so he said, "How is Your Majesty?"

"Ann!" His Majesty the Emperor gasped heavily, but still replied to Fan Xian, "It's okay for this girl to be here, go after another assassin! Be sure to catch her back!"

Seeing the emperor with fierce words, Fan Xian did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and immediately bowed his hands and saluted, "Your servant obeys!"

Without the slightest delay, Fan Xian strode out immediately. When he reached the door, he saw some blood. It was when Fan Xian cast the dark crossbow just now, it remained on the opponent's body, leaving a wound.Immediately, Fan Xian didn't say anything, and chased out directly following the bloodstains.

The emperor let out a deep breath. His eyes were not on the maid in front of him who was caught by the tiger guards, nor on Fan Xian's way of leaving. Instead, he glanced strangely at His Highness the Third Prince, and the princes beside him. Your Highnesses, the eldest prince is the only one who has seen the world. At this time, he is accompanying His Majesty the Emperor, and the other princes are already a little dull.

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor calmly dispatched a five-member tiger guard to assist Fan Xian in arresting him.

And then ordered, "Go back to the palace."

.........

The temple is located on the outskirts of the capital city, not inside it, but the protection here is very strict. Logically speaking, no one will escape here, but this assassin obviously doesn't know that Fan Xian already knew about it. The locations of these two secret passages, when the assassin fled from the southwest, Fan Xian knew that he was going to leave through these secret passages, so this time saved a lot of time.

The secret passage was set up with some obstacles and a closed door. When Fan Xian arrived, the lock was still shaking. This also fully showed that the time for the assassin to escape was not very long. Fan Xian chased after him. , saw the figure of the assassin, and hurriedly followed.

Taking a quick step, Fan Xian unexpectedly found that he couldn't catch up with the black-clothed assassin in time. Although the assassin was injured, he was fine, and it didn't affect his galloping speed at all. Fan Xian quickly followed, turned sharply, Directly entered the dense forest outside the city of Kyoto.

It was already cold winter, and the dense forest hadn't melted due to the light snow a few days ago. While walking, Fan Xian was already chasing the person in front of him within a short distance, but at this moment, Fan Xian didn't He caught the opponent, and the opponent used the elasticity of the tree in front of him to suddenly turn around and stab Fan Xian.

Fan Xian galloped in the air, and when there was no way to avoid it, he moved forward with one hand, and the hidden weapon in his hand was fired directly.

The power of a hidden weapon does not lie in the damage caused by direct fighting, but the essence of the word dark. Fan Xian had already used this sleeve to injure the person in front of him once. Obviously, the second time, he was no longer able to do any damage to him. Threat, the man seemed to have been on guard for a long time. While striking out the long sword with his right hand, he took out a short knife with his left hand and blocked all the hidden weapons shot by Fan Xian.

A sword, into the belly!

Fan Xian, who spat out a mouthful of blood, directly fell to the ground out of thin air.

And the assassin frowned, as if he was not in a hurry to end Fan Xian's life below, but fell near the tree above, as if he was waiting for something.

Fan Xian below immediately took out a bottle of gold wound medicine and smeared it on the front and back of the sword. Although it could stop the bleeding, the unbearable pain prevented him from starting at all. He endured the severe pain and took out the hidden weapon at hand. He wanted to stop the assassin in front of him, but at this moment, the assassin jumped down directly and looked at Fan Xian indifferently.

Fan Xian frowned, not knowing what the other party wanted to do, he dragged backwards in a hurry, trying to turn over.

The next moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came!

Tiger guard!

And at this moment, the assassin directly swung his sword and stabbed at Fan Xian's chest!
"Dang!" The sound of bow and arrow came, and the assassin's sword was crooked, piercing into the ground, looking up, the tiger guards in front of him had already lined up and chased after him.

The assassin sneered, turned around and galloped out.

On the face of Fan Xian on the ground, a dazed look had already appeared. When the first tiger guard came to him, Fan Xian grabbed his arm and said abruptly.

"poisonous……"

His eyes went black and he lost consciousness.
