"Look at my Depression Needle!—"

Tan Zhi narrowed his eyes, and saw that the woman was wearing a strangely shaped ring on her finger. The ring head was huge, but it looked very delicate, and it looked like it could shoot out tiny silver needles;

Tan Zhi's physical reaction after seeing it was very honest, he tapped his toes, and chose to avoid the hidden weapon that was about to come at him...

It's now!

Du Heng vigorously pushed Zhou Xian out of the tent, followed by himself and took away an oil lamp that had been burning in the tent;
Tan Zhi's martial arts skills are very strange, he looks fierce when he hits Zhou Xian, but his actions often look like ghosts and ghosts. They have been facing each other in the tent for so long, not only the movement is small , Even the candles have not weakened by half! ——

When Tan Zhi saw that he was being teased, a flash of sullenness flashed across his face, and he immediately used his ghostly lightness kung fu in the small tent, arriving later, intending to give her a hard time in the back...

Du Heng also felt the cold breath behind her almost sticking to her back, so he had no choice but to stretch out the hand wearing the ring to take his blow. Unexpectedly, Tan Zhi saw what Du Heng was wearing, and opened his eyes. Eyes widened: "You, you actually..."

Then he forcibly stopped his attack, made a neat somersault in the air, and then landed firmly on the ground; in complete contrast to his unrestrained figure in the air, as soon as he landed, he tightly covered his body. own heart.

Du Heng looked even more strange, but without hesitation, she took the oil lamp and lit the realgar scattered around the tent outside. When the realgar caught fire, it was much faster than burning the tent directly;

Not only that, the realgar is scattered in circles, and its burning speed is paralleled by the wind, and the white smoke produced by burning the realgar is quickly spread out——

At this moment, Du Heng began to shout at the top of his voice: "Come on, come on! Put out the fire!"

Then he pulled Zhou Xian and ran out of the circle surrounded by white smoke from the realgar burning;

Some of Tan Zhi's guards who were guarding outside the tent were shocked when they saw this, and they didn't have time to catch Du Heng and Zhou Xian, and ran directly into the tent to save them, but they were all smoked by the white smoke produced by the fire. Can't stop coughing and crying...

The fire gradually intensified, more and more white smoke rose into the sky, and more and more people woke up, but they dared not go forward due to the strange smell of white smoke, all they could do was fetch water and call people.

After a while, the guards who were watching the night brought many soldiers in uniform to this side, and only then did the commotion subside.

Zhou Xian, who had been looking at that place from a distance, panting heavily, finally sat on the ground as if exhausted, and didn't get up for a long time.

Du Heng's situation is not much better, tonight is even more dangerous than staying in the dense forest in Yunnan: Tan Zhi's face is like a god and Buddha, his shape is like a demon, his mind is like a ghost, and he is as cunning as a fox. It is really a terrible opponent.

Being able to escape from his hands tonight was really the result of his choice of being merciful at the end... Similarly, this is also what Du Heng was very puzzled about.

As for what Tan Zhi said about "spare my life" for the first time, Du Heng absolutely didn't believe it;

According to a person like him, there is only one possibility: if he is beside Zhou Xian, he is very likely to be pulled by Zhou Xian to block the crossbow, and this is not the plan of Tan Zhi who wants to defeat the enemy with one blow.

And the second time to "show mercy" to himself was just because he didn't want to waste time and energy on himself. His goal was only Zhou Xian from the beginning to the end...

As for the third time... She really couldn't understand it.

After a while, the well-trained soldiers covered their mouths and noses, covered their mouths with water and soil, and quickly extinguished the fire. Sure enough, there was no one in the only tent that was trapped, and they must have fled while taking advantage of the chaos. .

And the only useful thing left was the pocket crossbow.

Thinking that the enemy had even thought out the escape route, Zhou Xian's complexion became even worse. This was clearly planning to "catch a turtle in the urn"...

But the good quality of an heir to the royal family lies here, he still forced a smile on his face, and thanked Du Heng in a low voice: "Miss Du, thank you so much tonight..."

Du Heng didn't look at him at all, "Your Highness, thank you if you want to thank yourself! You saved yourself..."

Because of the Dragon Boat Festival, realgar is prepared in every household, so this thing is not difficult to find.

And Zhou Xian chose to sprinkle realgar outside all the tents to let everyone have a better rest. Because of the "earthquake" and the Dragon Boat Festival, many snakes, insects, rats and ants came out of their nests one after another...

This was an insignificant matter, but it was because of Zhou Xian's meticulous heart and love for the people like a child that he saved his own life...

"Obviously there is one thing that I don't understand. The realgar is non-toxic, why does it look like some kind of poisonous smoke when it is lit?..."

"'Realgar sees fire and is as poisonous as arsenic'...His Highness knows it once he has experienced it..."

A soldier recognized Zhou Xian, was very surprised at his presence here, and immediately escorted him back to his account, but Zhou Xian, who was "surviving after the catastrophe", obviously still had many questions to discuss with Du Heng. He took the continual crossbow handed over by the soldier, and told Du Heng what he had guessed in his heart:
"Miss Du, Your Highness wants to discuss something with you:
My Highness thinks that although you just used your ring to 'fake a shot', Tan Zhi believed it because you thought he was good at using some of his 'extraordinary tricks', so he would definitely 'sneak attack' on you Believe it or not, that's how you're against him, right? -"

Seeing Zhou Xian shaking the things in his hands, Du Heng was noncommittal.

Before Zhou Xian could continue to ask questions, someone came forward to report that two corpses were found in the forest not far away. It seemed that the time of death was not far away...

Zhou Xian's complexion suddenly became very bad, that is his confidant who has been carefully cultivated! ——

Du Heng looked at his face and pointed out mercilessly:

"His Royal Highness, there is no time to be angry and sad. Beiyan is obviously ready to go; they have already made up their minds to get rid of such a 'dedicated' 'prefect' on the border. Isn't their intention obvious enough?" ?——

But the magistrate they 'strongly' want to meet tonight is replaced by you, which is really an 'unexpected joy' for them, just as Tan Zhi himself said;
They already know that their future opponent is you, they know what you look like, and they want to take advantage of the struggle to kill you... Is such an opponent not scary enough?Your Highness, you have to deal with it with 12 points of energy! ..."

What Du Heng didn't say was that she played the role of "fuse" in the middle of this. If she hadn't accelerated the struggle for the succession and asked Xue Feibai to "protect" Zhou Xian, how could Beiyan have met? So clear about the affairs inside the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty? ...
