Chapter 306

Without any concealment, Zhao told the story in detail. At the end, he turned his head to the sky and sighed helplessly.

He also couldn't understand why he wasn't the one who got hit the hardest every time, but why he was always the one who got hurt the most.

After much deliberation, there is only one explanation: This imperial envoy’s identity is a hindrance to me!

Seeing Zhao, he looked like he was about to die. Suzaku timidly sat next to him and possessed him. This move almost startled Zhao, who hurriedly moved away.

He sighed and said, "I've already explained the matter. The two glances are purely coincidental, but you can't just look for trouble."

"I know." Suzaku lowered his head and asked worriedly: "Are you okay? Yes... I didn't ask clearly. I'm sorry."

Zhao shook his head and said, "I forgive you, but next time I'll ask you first before taking action, okay? My bones can't withstand a few beatings!"

"Okay, okay."

Suzaku also lay down and asked in his ear: "Who is the archer? Why can't zhenqi stop the arrow? Why do you seem to have known about it for a long time?"

He turned his head to look at her, wiped away her tears, and said with a helpless smile: "I don't know who the person who shot the arrow is. As for why I know that it can break the true energy, it's because I have suffered the same loss."

"I just didn't expect that there were several more types of poison on the arrow this time. I only had five kinds of poison that time."

Suzaku nodded, no wonder he was so nervous at that time, it turned out that he had suffered a loss.

"Didn't you find out?"

Zhao said helplessly: "No. The person was already dead and stripped naked in the past. No clues can be found."

"Well, I understand. Anyway, thank you this time." Suzaku said cautiously with a red face.

"It's okay. A small problem." Zhao said calmly.

Then he sat up with his hands on his hands. With quick eyes and quick hands, Suzaku slowly helped him get out of bed. After walking a few steps, he turned around and asked, "Are you okay? Can you use your true energy?"

Suzaku shook his head apologetically, "There is no problem in moving, but the Qi still cannot be used. It will take some time to dispel the remaining poison."

"Then just stay at the inn. It's almost dawn, and I'll rush back to take a look."

Zhao pressed Suzaku's hand, opened the door and walked out. He circulated his true energy and rushed out suddenly, without stopping at all, until he reached the deserted temple.

I walked around carefully and found that not a single soul could be seen inside. Suspicious in his heart, he threw a few stones inside. After waiting for a moment, he found that there was no reaction inside, so he walked in slowly and gently.

Looking around, the temple was empty, there was nothing. Taking this opportunity, Zhao hid the bodies of the Hu people in the space under the statue.

He turned around and walked out of the deserted temple, and waited there for about two quarters of an hour. There was no movement at all, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.

When he was about to walk around, there were footsteps outside the temple, and Zhao got into the shadows, holding the long knife in his hand, preparing for a sneak attack.

"Second brother, it's so frustrating to let them run away! If we didn't have those key arrows, at least we could capture a few alive!"

"Who says it's not the case? It's an arrow? It's so strange that it can't even be blocked by the real energy!"

A familiar voice came, and Zhao recognized it immediately, Bai Hu and Xuanwu! He hurriedly ran out and shouted: "Why are you alone? Where are the enemies? Are they running away?"

Baihu and Xuanwu were startled at the same time. They relaxed after seeing their faces clearly and shook their heads helplessly. Bai Hu was angry and yelled: "Master Zhao, I'm not bragging. I beat those two old ladies until they vomited blood and almost captured them alive!"

But who would have thought that two archers would appear out of nowhere, and their arrows were extremely weird, capable of breaking through the body's infuriating energy! We brothers were stopped by arrows several times, and in the end we couldn’t even see anyone..."

Another poisonous arrow! Zhao gritted his teeth, but he was helpless. No one wanted such an unexpected thing to happen.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter. Just know that they did it. The bodies of the barbarians are in the temple."

If he can't be taken away, he will be killed and silenced, which is quite decisive. Xuanwu couldn't help but think, turned around and went into the temple to check. Sure enough, he found the body in a hidden place under the statue. It had been dead for a long time.

After careful inspection, it was indeed the corpse of a foreigner. After carefully checking the surroundings, there was nothing unusual, and then slowly walked out of the ruined temple.

Worriedly asked: "How is Suzaku? Has the poison been cured?"

"It's okay, let's recuperate." Zhao replied calmly.

Xuanwu said: "As long as everything is fine. Let's go and go back and ask someone to move the body. That group of people also ran away, so they probably won't come back specifically to destroy the body and eliminate traces."

"It's okay. You go back and call for help first." Bai Hu waved his hand and then affirmed: "I'll stay and watch. I'll see which of them dares to come back and kill them if they can!"

"You can't kill these rats!"

The two of them nodded, said "Okay", and rushed towards Chuzhou City with their Qi.

When the sky was slightly bright, the dead people were sitting in the reception hall, eating their meals in a melancholy manner. No one spoke, there was only the sound of chopsticks clashing with porcelain bowls.

Although the bodies of the Hu people were found, Xuanwu was not very satisfied. None of the people who assisted the Hu people in escaping from prison were caught. Although there was a harvest, it was not big.

Zhao Jiu's idea was similar to Xuanwu's. Although he put the spoils on their heads, he didn't leave enough traces to make a final decision.

As for Bai Hu and Suzaku, both of them were a little unhappy. One of them was blocked by a poisonous arrow and watched helplessly as the cooked duck flew away; the other was injured by a poisonous arrow and almost died. It was a ghost to be happy.

As the food on the table dwindled little by little, Xuanwu took the lead to put down his chopsticks and sighed softly: "Oh, it's a pity that they ran away. It's a pity. Fortunately, we found the body of the Hu, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to explain clearly."

"Yeah." Bai Hu put down his chopsticks and drank a glass of wine, his tone still a little indignant, "If someone hadn't disturbed the situation, I..."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Zhao wiped his mouth and said in a deep voice: "Who do you think they belong to?"

"Hexi!" Xuanwu and Baihu said in unison.

Suzaku asked curiously: "Why are you so sure?"

Before the two of them could answer, Zhao added fuel to the fire and affirmed: "When I pretended to be someone else and sneaked in among them, I heard them say with my own ears that they were from Hexi."

Now it’s okay, I don’t even need to explain the reasons. Although Zhao may have heard it wrong, no matter from the detailed analysis or the feeling of fighting.

They are all like people from Hexi.

The two nodded in agreement. Xuanwu said: "Then let's think it was done by people from Hexi. Later we will investigate slowly and we can always find out."

"Yeah." Zhao nodded and said, "I think it shouldn't be much different, but we still have to investigate. Just a corpse doesn't mean much."

"It's a pity that no one was caught alive."
