We are all reborn, of course we have to overthrow it and start over again to take the whole family f
Chapter 87 Assassination
Liubi, who was chasing after Shihua, saw the building in front clearly and hurriedly spoke out to stop them.
That, that is the ancestral hall of the Xiahou family.
Shihua didn't care about whether it was an ancestral hall or not. She just felt a familiar breath guiding her to this place.
At this moment, a slender black shadow flashed by an old cypress tree next to the ancestral hall gate.
The dark shadow was covered with a black veil, leaving only two eyes exposed, staring at Shihua's small figure.
I don’t know how Shihua offended the black shadow, but his eyes were full of anger and resentment, as if he wanted to tear the little figure into pieces until death.
Under the cover of the old cypress tree, the black shadow pulled out a dagger that was flashing with cold light from his sleeve and approached quietly.
Perhaps the old cypress tree was too old, and a dead branch fell from the crown of the tree and hit the wrist of the black shadow holding the dagger.
"Damn it, bad luck."
The shadow cursed inwardly, but did not give up. She changed to another cypress tree and continued to hide. However, this one was not as good as the previous one in terms of perspective and location.
The ancestral hall of the Xiahou family was built on a large scale. Although there were not many tablets enshrined in the hall, the one in the middle was enough to kill hundreds of ordinary tablets in seconds.
The owner of that tablet was the ancestor of the Xiahou family, the one who had achieved the first success.
What’s different from other ancestral halls is that there is a box made of top-quality rosewood right above the ancestral tablet.
Shihua staggered up the stairs using her hands and feet, then climbed over the threshold and entered the gate of the ancestral hall.
On the marble floor in front of the huge tribute table in the ancestral hall, there are several cushions for the descendants of the Xiahou family to kowtow and worship.
Shihua stood in the open space in front of the tribute table, without kneeling down to worship. She just put her index finger into her mouth, blinked her bright big eyes, stared at the tablet of Ancestor Xiahou and the box behind it, and tilted her head, thinking about something.
Shihua: It’s strange, why does that card have a familiar scent? And the scent seems to be even stronger in the box behind it.
What on earth is this thing? Why not climb up and open it to have a look?
But when she looked at her two tall tribute platforms and her own fat arms and short legs, she fell silent.
Never mind, let me watch it first, otherwise I won’t be able to sleep tonight.
"Fifth Miss, this is the ancestral hall, you can't do this, quickly, kneel down."
Seeing Shihua grabbing the curtain of the tribute platform and trying to climb up the tribute platform, Liu Bihua was frightened and quickly stopped him.
She is about to die. If the Marquis finds out, beating her or selling her off would be the least of her worries.
But according to the rules of the Marquis's Mansion, servants and other unauthorized persons are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall.
Even cleaning the ancestral hall requires the owner's assignment and the supervision of the housekeeper.
Liubi didn't dare to enter the ancestral hall without permission. She just knelt on the bluestone floor tiles outside the gate and persuaded Shihua to kowtow to the ancestor of the Xiahou family and then coax her back.
Hearing Liubi's shout, Shihua turned around and looked at her with a confused look. Was she kneeling? Or not?
She thought about it and decided to follow the advice.
He let go of the curtain, stepped back to the cushion, bent his knees slightly, and was about to kneel down.
Here comes the weird one.
Before Shihua's knees touched the mat, the signs on the tribute stand were shaking in fear without any wind.
The entire ancestral hall was filled with the sound of "bang bang bang".
The "bang bang" sounds are very rapid, as if saying: Ouch, little ancestor, please don't torture us, get up quickly, get up quickly.
If you kneel down, the uncles and great-grandmothers of the Emperor of Daliang will take their swords and chop you to pieces.
The banging noise gave Shihua a headache, and there must be something wrong when something was unusual.
Shihua thought for a while with her fingers between her fingers, and muttered softly: "What are these wooden signs doing? Are they quarreling? Okay, okay, you are quarreling so much, I won't kneel down to you guys."
She straightened her knees, and the cards finally quieted down.
Xiahou Family Patriarch: Oh my god, you scared me! My dear ancestor, you finally got up.
If you really kneel down, those old guys will probably find trouble with you all over the underworld.
Although he would not be killed, he would definitely be beaten to death by dozens of fierce opponents.
Shihua's ears twitched slightly, haha, there is danger.
The next second, a cold light flashed through the gate and stabbed towards Shihua's back.
In that 0.001 second, Liu Bi's reaction was amazing. She ignored the rules, jumped over the gate of the ancestral hall, and hugged Shihua tightly.
She wanted to use her own body to save Shihua and block the dagger for her.
But before the dagger touched the flower, a beam of white light flew out from the largest card and hit the dagger with a "bang", causing sparks to fly everywhere, which was a very beautiful sight.
In a split second, the dagger was completely defeated. It was attacked and bounced back with a whoosh.
Seeing the dagger, it strangely rebounded towards him. The shadow raised his hand and grasped the dagger. The force of the rebound was so strong that the shadow's palm was shaken and hurt.
Her wrist trembled, and the dagger slipped out of her hand and fell to the ground with a clang.
The mission started off badly, and the dark shadow realized that the old man in the ancestral hall was helping the kid.
She didn't dare to fight any longer, and feeling the pain on her wrist, she quickly left the ancestral hall and disappeared into the darkness.
Liubi was so frightened that she was trembling. When she heard the sound of the dagger cutting through the air, she thought she was stabbed by the dagger. She closed her eyes and pushed Shihua.
"Fifth Miss, hurry, hurry, run!"
Shihua was watching a play, watching the dagger flying back and forth, and felt that the person who threw the dagger was like someone who had not eaten, and would be knocked away by a dagger thrown. Even so, he was still an assassin.
When she heard Liubi asking her to run, she opened her two confused eyes and said, "Sister Liubi, why are you asking me to run? That person ran away in fear."
After she said that, Liubi realized that there was no pain and no bleeding.
When she opened her eyes, she saw that there were only the master and servant in the dark ancestral hall.
She didn't dare stay here any longer, so she hurriedly picked up Shihua and ran back to Weilan Garden, stumbling.
After entering the room, Liubi's legs were still weak. Cuizhi and others saw that her face was pale and her hands holding Shihua were still shaking, so they hurriedly surrounded her and took Shihua from her hands.
"Liu Bi, what's wrong with you? Why are you like this? What happened to you?"
Liu Bi drank the cup of tea that Liu Xiang handed over, and his mind gradually calmed down. He then said with lingering fear: "Just now, in the ancestral hall, someone tried to assassinate the fifth young lady."
"ah--
Liubi, what did you say just now? Say it again. "
Yun and Tingyu were just coming out of the study and happened to hear the second half of the conversation.
