Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 163

Taking advantage of the sound of the people applauding, he quietly took out a blowpipe from his bosom.

At the front end of the blowpipe, you can see a black needle hidden inside, which must have been poisoned.

While the hands around him were shaking and making a chaotic sound, the thin man quietly put the blowpipe into his mouth and aimed it at Wei Wu.

Because he was hiding in the crowd, the guards and imperial guards on Wei Wu's side did not notice anything unusual.

Then, the thin man put the tip of his tongue against the end of the blowpipe and took a deep breath.

Just as he was about to blow his breath to take Wei Wu's life, at the critical moment a cry suddenly came from the crowd!

"Master, be careful!!"

Huh? Leah's voice?

Because the incident happened suddenly, Wei Wu didn't know what Liya meant by being careful.

But after all, she was his personal maid, so Wei Wu's trust in her was unquestionable.

Without any hesitation, he immediately prepared to take out the explosion-proof shield to protect himself.

Although I don't know where the danger will come from, this is definitely the safest thing to do.

Shen Lin and the others on the side also heard Liya's reminder and immediately reacted to surround Wei Wu.

But they were still a step too slow because the thin man had already taken action.

There was a flash of cold light in his eyes, and a black needle shot out from the blowpipe and flew straight towards Wei Wu's throat.

In the thin man's opinion, his attack would definitely not miss.

With the speed of the flying needle, the guards had no time to stand in front of Wei Wu.

As long as this flying needle soaked in poison pierces Wei Wu's throat, the Golden Immortal will not return.

The thin man's idea was indeed good, but he still underestimated Wei Wu's methods.

Just when he thought he had succeeded, the smug smile on his face suddenly froze.

"How is this possible? When did this shield appear?!"

The flying needle attack that was originally a sure thing was blocked by a shield that appeared out of nowhere.

He couldn't even see where the shield came from, he only saw his flying needles falling to the ground.

The key is the guards around Wei Wu and those who are hiding around to protect him.

All of them locked his current position through the trajectory of the flying needles.

Seeing this, the thin man didn't have time to think and immediately turned around and dived into the crowd.

I have to say that this thin man is really capable. He is not only quick but also agile.

He was like a swimming fish in the crowd, turning left and right without being hindered by the crowd at all.

Because the Jinyiwei had a large number of people, the leader immediately drew his sword and shouted in desperation.

"Jinyiwei is doing this. Everyone, please squat down."

When they heard that it was a government matter, the people squatted down instinctively.

Then the Jinyiwei locked onto the thin man again, and a large number of people quickly chased after him.

At this time, Liya finally walked through the crowd and came to Wei Wu.

"Master, that was so dangerous!"

Wei Wu was about to ask, but Shen Lin on the side took the lead.

"Master, the assassin may have accomplices nearby. There are so many people outside, and we don't know where the next arrow will be shot from!"

"Let's go back to Bihai Chaosheng Tower and hold our ground until the Jinyiwei send reinforcements. We'll have more people to escort you back to the mansion!"

Wei Wu also understood that what Shen Lin said was right, so he simply gave an order.

"Advance to the Bihai Chaosheng Building!"

After saying that, under the escort of Shen Lin and others, the group pushed through the crowd and returned to the Bihai Chaosheng Building.

After confirming that it was temporarily safe, Wei Wu looked at Liya and asked:

"Liya, thanks for reminding me just now. By the way, why are you here?"

Hearing Wei Wu's question, Liya did not dare to hesitate and immediately began to explain.

"Master, something happened at home, so I came to look for you. But when I got there, I saw that man trying to kill you."

"I didn't know what to do, so I could only yell to remind you to be careful. Luckily you're okay. It was really dangerous just now!"

Something happened at home?

Hearing this, Wei Wu frowned and immediately asked another question.

"You said something happened at home, what happened?"

"Master, someone has died in our family. It was the eunuch who came to our house before, the eunuch named Li Feng."

After saying that, Leah reached out and took out a piece of cloth from her arms and handed it to Wei Wu.

"We don't know how he got in. When we found him, he was already dying. This is all he left."

Li Feng is dead, and he died in my yard?

Wei Wu was confused and took the piece of cloth from Liya and took a look at it.

White Lotus Danger...

Under normal circumstances, three words would not reveal much information, but these three words are different.

Just the two words "bai" and "lian" put together make it obvious.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be related to the White Lotus Sect. Add the word "dangerous", and the meaning becomes very clear.

The White Lotus Sect is in danger!

Seeing that Wei Wu remained silent, Liya next to him began to worry.

"Master, are we in trouble? Li Feng was the Crown Prince's man, but he died in our house. This..."

Before Leah could finish her words, Wei Wu simply waved his hand.

"It's okay, don't worry."

After responding casually, Wei Wu fixed his eyes on the piece of cloth again.

"If Li Feng was killed by the White Lotus Sect, then what does it mean that he came to my house before dying?"

"Even though he was dying, he still left me these three words. Was he trying to tell me that the White Lotus Cult was targeting me?"

"But, what is Li Feng's purpose in doing this? Is he repenting before his death? Or does he want to use me to take revenge?"

It is actually normal for Wei Wu to have such speculation.

After all, Li Feng had once attempted to assassinate him, and had suffered a great loss at his hands, almost losing his life.

If he really died at the hands of the White Lotus Sect and learned that the White Lotus Sect was targeting Wei Wu, then his actions would make sense.

But thinking of this, Wei Wu thought of what had just happened.

"From this perspective, the assassin outside must be the one sent by the White Lotus Sect to kill me!"

"It's just that I have no grudges or grudges against those psychopaths from the White Lotus Sect, nor have I ever had any contact with them. What's their purpose in killing me?"

Just as Wei Wu frowned in confusion, a burly figure appeared silently in the lobby.

Before anyone noticed, he spoke first.

"Wei Wu, your time of death has come. I have come to see you off!"
