Madam, protect me!

After taking a breath, Li Nuo looked at the numbers on the code with an extremely painful expression on his face.

"Name: Li Nuo."

"Lifespan: one day."

More than two hundred days of lifespan, in exchange for a moment of double the strength of the fourth realm.

Taking advantage of the assassin's unpreparedness, he attacked and killed him with one blow.

The lifespan on the code is only one day left.

This day, I'm afraid the code automatically triggered some kind of protection.

Otherwise, before he could kill the assassin, he would have died suddenly.

The situation at that time did not allow him to think too much.

Facing a martial artist of the fourth realm, if he hesitated for one more second, he would have lost his head.

Capturing a martial arts master of the fourth realm only gave him an extra hundred days of lifespan.

Changing his cultivation level once deducted more than two hundred days from him.

Usually he lived frugally, not even willing to waste a day's life. He refused Mu'er's dressing request countless times, and finally increased his lifespan to more than 200 days...

Now, after working hard for more than a month, he was back to the time before liberation.

But he had no choice.

Either change or die.

He had to be thankful that the guard of the Chu State was at the fourth level of the dual skills.

Both meridians were cultivated to the fourth level, and the true energy in his body was twice that of the ordinary fourth level.

If it was just an ordinary fourth level, he might not be able to kill with one blow.

This is probably the reason why he was deducted so much lifespan.

In the dark, everything seemed to be destined.

Li Nuo looked at the man in black on the ground depressedly, gritted his teeth and said, "Why do you do this?"

It's not easy to cultivate to the fourth level. I don't know how much suffering and fatigue you have to endure in the middle. It's not worth it to die so aggrieved.

But the man in black, whose pupils were gradually dilating, could no longer hear his words.

Li Nuo wanted to stand up by holding the wall, but he was dizzy.

Just now, he felt that he was so strong that he could fight his wife for three hundred rounds even if she came.

But after that power disappeared, he felt an unprecedented emptiness in his body.

It seemed that even the deepest power in his body was completely drained.

He couldn't hold on in the end, and his eyes were spinning and he completely lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of light footsteps was heard again in the alley.

A slender figure walked in slowly, first glanced at the black-clothed man in the corner who was dying with his eyes open, and pulled the corner of his mouth with disdain, "What a scoundrel, you can't even handle this little thing, and you dare to call yourself one of the top ten killers, in the end I have to do it myself..."

Then, he looked at the fainted young man again, with a trace of pity on his face, and murmured, "You are so handsome, I can't bear to kill you..."

Although he said so, the long sword at his waist had been slowly drawn out.

Seeing this scene, the woman sitting on the wall jumped down from the wall and said lightly: "Stupid sissy, try to move him?"

The slender figure paused, and the long sword in his hand made a buzzing sound.

Those who dared to call him that were already dead.

He glanced at the woman who was also wearing a veil, and felt the undisguised fluctuations of true energy on her body, and the buzzing sound of the long sword in his hand gradually subsided.

He glanced at Li Nuo lying on the ground, with a look of regret on his face, and jumped onto the wall, disappearing in an instant.

The woman did not chase him, but looked down at the fainted Li Nuo, and then looked at the dead black-clothed killer, and whispered: "Song Jiaren, your husband is not right..."

She wanted to turn around and leave, but after a few steps, her steps stopped again.

Finally, she sighed helplessly, turned back, picked up Li Nuo, and slowly walked out.

...

Song Mansion

An old man with a white beard removed his fingers from Li Nuo's wrist, looked at Wu Guanjia, and asked in confusion: "Are you sure that your young master has not practiced martial arts?"

Wu Guanjia said unhappily: "You are a quack doctor, can you treat illnesses? I watched my young master grow up. How could I not know whether my young master practiced martial arts or not?"

The old man scratched his head and said in surprise: "That's strange. His body is overdrawn seriously, like the result of excessive consumption of true energy, but it's not a big deal. Next, pay attention to rest and eat more supplements. You will recover in ten days or half a month..."

At this time, the young man lying on the bed moved his eyelids slightly.

When Li Nuo woke up, he saw a room full of people.

My wife, Mu'er, Ning'er, Song Yu and Wu Guanjia were all around his bed.

Seeing him wake up, the worry on Song Jiaren's face faded a little.

Song Muer still had tears on her face, and she happily held his hand, "Brother Li Nuo, you're awake!"

Song Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and said in fear: "Brother-in-law, you really scared me to death!"

Butler Wu asked with a worried look on his face: "Young Master, how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Seeing them, Li Nuo breathed a sigh of relief.

Saved.

Li Nuo did not answer Butler Wu's question, but sat up with difficulty and asked: "Where are the assassins?"

Butler Wu said: "Eight assassins, one died, and the other seven ran away. They are all top killers. If they want to escape, we can't stop them..."

He was still a little scared at this moment, and thankfully said: "Who would have thought that there were actually eight of the Seven Evils of Tianshan? Fortunately, the female knight passed by and saved the young master when she saw the injustice. Otherwise, the young master would probably be in danger today, and I would not be ashamed to face the master and the young lady..."

Li Nuo doesn't know anything about female heroes.

It seemed that something happened after he fainted.

But these are not important anymore.

He originally thought that out of the eight assassins, he would be able to capture at least one or two.

In this way, after they pronounce the sentence, the life span he lost can be added back.

Unexpectedly, only one of the eight assassins died in his hands.

Legalists pay great attention to procedures when handling cases.

After the case is filed and sentenced, even if he commits suicide, it will not affect the increase in life span.

But he directly killed someone without filing a case or pronouncing a verdict. Can the law recognize this?

Li Nuo looked forward, and the "Code" floated quietly in front of his eyes.

His eyes were full of anticipation.

But the two lines of words on the cover made him completely heartbroken.

"Name: Li Nuo."

"Lifespan: one day."

When he saw the numbers on the last line, his heart sank completely.

Sure enough, it wasn’t added.

A killer in the fourth realm can add a hundred days to his life.

It was so wasted, and Li Nuo felt heartbroken beyond measure.

But now he doesn't even have time to feel distressed.

Early this morning, his lifespan will be refreshed again.

During this period, if he cannot save his own life...

At midnight, it was the time of his death.

Li Nuo turned his head and looked outside. It was already dark. His heart sank and he asked Butler Wu, "What time is it now?"

Butler Wu said: "Youshi has just passed."

Youshi is from five to seven o'clock in the afternoon, which means that it is after seven o'clock, less than five hours before zero o'clock.

There isn't much time left for him.

It may still be useful to make up the necessary procedures now.

Li Nuo instantly felt that his body had regained some strength and struggled to get out of bed. Butler Wu saw this and hurriedly helped him up and asked: "Master, where are you going? You are very weak now, so you should lie down and have a good rest... …”

His body wasted no time and his life was almost gone.

He said decisively: "Prepare the car and go out!"

In front of the Song Mansion.

Butler Wu helped Li Nuo onto the carriage and asked helplessly: "Master, where are you going?"

Li Nuo said: "County government!"

The killer is already dead, and his lifespan has not increased. You don't need to guess to know that it is a problem with the program.

I just don’t know if it would be useful to issue a new judgment?

Although he had just been banned from judging cases by the court, he could not care so much when it came to life and death.

When the carriage was about to start, Song Jiaren got on the carriage and didn't say anything. She just sat silently opposite Li Nuo.

There were eight assassins in total who assassinated Li Nuo this time.

Of the eight killers, only one remains.

The man's internal organs were shattered by the powerful Qi, and he died in an alley.

According to Butler Wu, a passing heroine saved him.

Li Nuo didn't know anything about the heroine. The killer died at his hands. Before he fainted, he had never seen any heroine.

But what matters now is not the heroine.

It's his life.

He opened the curtain and urged: "Hurry up, it's almost too late..."

Butler Wu didn't know why it was too late, but he still increased the frequency of whipping his hand.

Soon, the carriage stopped at the gate of Chang'an County Government Office.

At this moment, he had already left the government office. Butler Wu patted the county government office door vigorously. A government servant inside said impatiently: "Knock, knock. It's been a while since I didn't look. If you have anything to do, come back tomorrow!"

Although I don't know what the young master is anxious about, he looks really anxious.

Butler Wu has never seen the young master so anxious.

He jumped into the county government office, and when the government officials were stunned, he opened the door from the inside.

Not long after.

Another mansion in Chang'an.

Li Yuan was wondering, why did Zhao Ji go to Yuyin Pavilion for a whole day and not come back?

He was about to send someone to investigate when suddenly a man hurried in and said, "Master, you really have a clever plan. That Li Nuo went to the Chang'an County Government again!"

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

Okay, when you arrest yourself, you should say the laws of Daxia, and talk about how noble he is.

Why didn't he mention the Daxia Law when he himself disobeyed the imperial laws again and again?

Double standards!

The double standards are disgusting!

He no longer cared about Zhao Ji's affairs, and immediately said: "Call Chief Liu and go to the Chang'an County Government Office!"

Chief Liu is an official of Shangshu Province. Li Nuo and officials of Chang'an County Yamen have repeatedly disobeyed the imperial laws and were caught on the spot by officials of Shangshu Province. Let's see what they have to say!

Chang'an County Government.

Butler Wu has found out through the Mirror Division that the eight killers, known as the "Seven Evils of Tianshan", are famous killers in the martial arts world and rank at the top of the killer list.

They are called the Seven Evils of Tianshan, but there are actually eight of them. All eight of them are fourth-level warriors. They have countless lives on their hands, and they even have the record of joining forces to kill the Grandmaster.

Every one of these eight people deserves to be killed.

The man killed by Li Nuo was named Huang Tao, and he was the leader of the Seven Evils of Tianshan.

As the strongest among the eight, he died in this assassination.

Inside the county magistrate's office.

Butler Wu was still lamenting the power of the heroine, while Li Nuo was already writing the verdict.

With only a few hours left to live, he was extremely nervous and the hand holding the pen was shaking slightly.

After taking a deep breath, he wrote the last line and then stamped it with Pei Zhe's official seal.

This judgment has been initially completed.

It only needs to wait for the review by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to be officially effective.

In the past, at this point, his lifespan would be increased according to the judgment.

Li Nuo looked at the code with some anxiety.

One day.

Still one day.

Li Nuo even asked for a code of law in his mind. Everyone is so familiar with it, can't we be accommodating?

Just this time, he promises to follow the procedure every time...

Unfortunately, Codex did not respond to him.

On the cover, there is still the cold "One Day".

It took a lot of time to go from the Song government to the county government and then to write the verdict.

No time to think about it.

He must rush to Dali Temple as soon as possible.

Li Nuo prayed in his heart that there would be some unsolved cases in Dali Temple.

There was his last hope.

Li Nuo was about to get up.

At this time, there was suddenly a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the government office.

A group of people filed in from outside. Li Yuan took an official with a short beard and walked into the government office. He pointed at Li Nuo who was sitting behind the desk and said, "Mr. Liu, have you seen? These people don't take the court's laws and regulations seriously at all, why don't you..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly trembled.

Li Yuan looked at Li Nuo and found him sitting behind the desk, staring straight at him.

He had never seen such a look on Li Nuo.

He interrupted Li Nuo's cultivation path, and Li Nuo never looked at him that way.

When he used the death penalty gold medal to escape from the Ministry of Punishment and ridiculed him, Li Nuo didn't look at him that way.

This look made him feel a deep chill in his heart.

What's wrong with this guy? Why is his look in his eyes so scary today?

Looking at Li Yuan, Li Nuo seemed to see hope.

Those killers were killed by Butler Wu and himself. There was indeed no legal process.

But someone has.

The evidence for Li Yuan's case of beating and killing his classmates is conclusive. He also confessed to the crime and has signed a bond with the Ministry of Punishment.

Without that death-free gold medal, he would be a dead man now.

In Li Nuo's eyes, light flashed.

He stood up slowly and said, "Close the door."

After the words fell, four old men in gray were already standing at the door, and the door of the government office suddenly closed.

Li Yuan was startled. He came out in a hurry and only brought one fourth level guard with him. He immediately hid behind the opponent and asked Li Nuo: "What do you want to do? Just disobey the imperial decree again and again. Do you still want to imprison a court official? This is a serious crime!"

Clang!

Li Nuo casually pulled out Pei Zhe's saber hanging on the wall.

Butler Wu was also startled and said quickly: "Master, don't be angry yet. The court is already investigating this case. This person may not be the mastermind behind the scenes..."

He thought that the young master felt that this guy was behind the assassination.

Although the other party had just had a grudge against the young master in the past two days, he would not dare to do so even if he had given Marquis Yunyang ten courages.

Of course Li Nuo knew that these killers were not sent by Li Yuan.

But it's not unimportant anymore.

He only has less than two hours to live. Even if he goes to Dali Temple, there may not be a suitable case that can help him solve the deadlock.

Unfortunately, it's right in front of us.

Li Yuan's case has gone through all the procedures in the Criminal Department.

Li Nuo didn't know if Li Yuan died, the code would recognize it and add the fifty days of life back to him.

It would be great if it could be added back, but if it is not added back, it would be considered as eliminating harm for the people.

After Pei Zhe came to his senses, he also walked up to Li Nuo and comforted him: "Master, calm down, calm down!"

Seeing that everyone was trying to persuade Li Nuo, Li Yuan felt a little more courageous. He walked out from behind the guard and sneered: "You dare to kill me? I am the son of a first-class marquis in the dynasty. If you kill me, your father will also I can’t protect you!”

Butler Wu wanted to take Li Nuo's knife, but found that he was holding the knife very tightly.

As if feeling Li Nuo's determination, he raised his head and looked at him in shock.

Li Nuo looked at Butler Wu and said seriously: "Today, either he dies or I die."

He's not angry.

This is a fact.

If Li Yuan doesn't die, he won't survive tomorrow.

Li Yuan is dead. Although his life or death is still uncertain, at least there is hope to see the sun tomorrow.

He has no choice.

Him, or Li Yuan.

Someone is going to die today no matter what.

Li Nuo's silence made Li Yuan more sure that he did not dare.

Of course he didn't dare.

And it's not necessary.

There was no blood feud between the two of them, so even if he killed him, he wouldn't be able to survive.

Is he crazy? He dares to kill a powerful kid?

He walked up to Li Nuo, deliberately raised his chest, and said, "Come on, stab here..."

puff!

The long knife passed through his chest and came out from his back.

Li Nuo didn't give him a chance to say a second sentence.

Butler Wu looked at Li Nuo blankly. His movements were too fast. Even if he was close at hand, he had no time to react.

Song Jiaren stood beside Li Nuo. She actually had time to stop him, but she didn't.

Living together for so long, she knew Li Nuo very well.

Although he always laughs and laughs with Mu'er on weekdays, when he gets serious, there must be a reason for doing this.

The expression of the old man behind Li Yuan changed drastically, and he wanted to step forward, but was locked by the four qi and could not take a step forward.

Magistrate Pei's eyes widened and his lips moved, but he didn't say a word.

The head of the Shangshu Province was already frightened. He didn't expect that the other party would really dare to kill someone, and the person he killed was the eldest son of Marquis Yunyang.

He knelt on the ground with a plop, his body trembling, and he kowtowed and said: "Forgive me, this is all his idea, it is none of the officials' business!"

Li Yuan still had a smile on his face, but found that the expressions of everyone around him were wrong.

As if realizing something, he lowered his head and saw Li Nuo's hand holding the knife.

wrong.

This knife...

It seems a little short.

My chest and back also hurt a little.

It hurts.

He saw the knife passing through his body and looked up at Li Nuo in disbelief. His lips moved, but in the end he said nothing.

Li Nuo let go of his hand, and Li Yuan's body fell to the ground weakly.

He looked at the code and the numbers on it had been updated.

"Life span: fifty-one days."

Li Nuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't know what he would face tomorrow, at least he wouldn't die suddenly tonight.

Li Nuo took the initiative to extend his hands to Pei Zhe and said, "Master Pei, I'm sorry to cause you trouble again..."

Pei Zhe wanted to cry but had no tears.

No, even if you want to kill him, can't you just change the place? This is the office where you work. No, you have to change the office with Zhang County Lieutenant in the future. If there is a future...

…

Chang'an County Government.

Prison.

This is not Li Nuo's first time here, but it is his first time as a prisoner.

After killing Li Yuan, Li Nuo took the initiative to ask Pei Zhe to imprison him.

Pei Zhe opened the door of a cell, and Li Nuo, who was crying, said: "Master, I can only wrong you first..."

Li Nuo walked into the cell, looked at Song Jiaren standing outside the cell, and said, "Madam, you should go back first."

Pei Zhe hugged them and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of the young master."

Butler Wu looked at Li Nuo and said, "Young Master, please stay here first. I will definitely find a way to save you."

After leaving the prison, Butler Wu asked four old men in gray to guard the county office. Looking at Song Jiaren who seemed to be planning to stay here, he said with a serious expression: "Young madam, you can't stay here. I need you to go there." Dali Temple, inform the master of this matter..."

Song Jiaren nodded, turned and left.

Butler Wu walked out of the county office and ran in the other direction.

That is not Dali Temple, nor is it Li Mansion.

Prince Chun's Mansion.

Although the sky has darkened, the lights in a large hall are still bright.

King Chun was playing chess with a young master. He was playing chess, shaking his head and saying: "Your chess skills are too bad. You only have a bad chess piece, which is far behind your Uncle Li. You are not enjoying yourself at all..."

The young master said angrily: "If it were Uncle Li, he would not be able to play to his fullest. My father's chess skills are only a little better than mine. There is nothing to brag about..."

The two of them exchanged derogatory remarks, and then someone walked in quickly, bowed and said, "Your Highness, Butler Wu of the Li Mansion would like to see you."

King Chun looked happy and didn't bother to play chess. He strode out of the palace door and looked at a figure waiting there. He smiled and said: "Old Wu, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Come in quickly and play with me." A game of chess..."

Butler Wu shook his head and said: "Your Highness, stop playing chess for now. I come here because I have an important matter to ask for help from Your Highness."

King Chun was startled when he heard this. Butler Wu came to him for help, which showed that this matter was extraordinary. He thought that their master, who was the minister of Dali Temple, could not solve it.

His face became a little solemn and he said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

After a moment, King Chun opened his mouth wide and said in confusion: "What, the wise nephew killed the eldest son of Marquis Yunyang?"

Butler Wu nodded and briefly told King Chun about their grudges over the past two days and today's assassination.

King Chun touched his chin and murmured: "It is a capital crime to kill a powerful son who is also a future second-class marquis. If it was Li Yun who killed him, it would be okay. Li Nuo would indeed be a bit difficult to deal with..."

The young man standing behind King Chun was speechless. Why did he think it was okay to kill him? Prince Chun couldn't just kill the powerful children.

Father wouldn't want him to take the blame, would he?

No, no, no, after all, he is his father's biological son and his only son. He should not do this.

King Chun suddenly looked at Butler Wu and asked, "Have many people seen this matter?"

Butler Wu nodded: "A lot."

King Chun sighed and said, "That won't work..."

If no one saw it and asked Li Yun to take the blame, he would be banned for a few days at most.

But if there are many eyewitnesses, you can’t just try to change the situation.

He patted Butler Wu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. There are so many sons of Marquis Yunyang. It won't have any impact if one or two of them die. Tomorrow, I will advise him carefully. If he doesn't pursue the matter, we will resolve this matter." It will be much easier. If he insists on pursuing it, I still have a gold medal to avoid death. It’s not a big deal, so just keep it in your heart..."
