Listening to the servant's shouts, Zhao Ziliang immediately walked over and squatted down.
The weak light from the fire stick in the servant's hand shone on the ground.
There was indeed a drop of blood on the ground, and there was also a drop of blood not far away.
He stretched out his hand to touch the blood and put it to his nose.
I smelled it and rubbed it again.
The blood was very fresh.
"Leave two people here to watch, the others will come with me," Zhao Ziliang said, searching forward in the direction of the bloodstains.
Brahan arranged for the two people to stay where they were, and followed with other followers.
Zhao Ziliang kept searching in the direction of the blood stain, and found three alleys in a row.
The last drop of blood was under a wall, and there was no more blood stain after that.
Zhao Ziliang stood up and looked up along the wall.
He reached out and touched the top of the wall and felt a patch of moisture.
He put it under his nose and smelled it.
It turned out to be blood.
Zhao Ziliang turned around and gestured to Brahan, asking him to wait here with the rest of the people.
Brahan nodded in agreement, and Zhao Ziliang jumped over the wall and landed firmly inside the wall.
The smell of blood inside the wall was even stronger, which made Zhao Ziliang realize that the person who killed the assassin should be in this courtyard and was seriously injured.
The question came again, why did that person kill the assassin?
Was that person also an assassin?
There was internal strife between them.
Apart from this, Zhao Ziliang couldn't think of any other reasons.
Zhao Ziliang's nose was not a dog's, but the smell of blood was too strong.
He kept looking forward in the direction where the smell of blood came from, and finally found the other person.
The man was dying under the pillars of the house in the courtyard.
Zhao Ziliang walked over slowly.
The man seemed to be aware of it, and the sword in his hand was lifted up, but he was unable to put it down because he was too injured.
With a "chi" sound, a fire stick was lit in Zhao Ziliang's hand, emitting a faint light that illuminated the surroundings.
Zhao Ziliang looked at the man's face.
"Why is it her?"
Zhao Zi asked in shock.
It turned out that the person who killed the assassin was Nie Sanniang, who had not been seen for a long time.
At this moment, Zhao Ziliang understood everything.
Before, Nie Sanniang was the person sent by Li Linfu to assassinate him, but he did not expect that Nie Sanniang had repeatedly killed him.
After the assassination failed, Zhao Ziliang let him go several times and saved her.
In order to repay her kindness, she never assassinated him again.
Instead, she always hid in the darkness around him and blocked the assassins sent by Li Linfu many times to assassinate him.
"I asked why Li Linfu didn't send anyone to kill me in the past few months.
It turns out that you have killed all the assassins sent," Zhao Zi sighed in his conscience.
At this time, Nie Sanniang opened her eyes slightly and saw a blurry figure leaning over and stretching out her hands.
However, her vision was blurred due to excessive blood loss.
She could not see clearly who the person was.
Her will could no longer hold on.
Unable to hold on, his consciousness fell into a coma.
Bo Lehan and others were waiting outside the wall.
Not long after, they saw Zhao Ziliang jumping down from the wall with a man in his arms.

He quickly went up and asked, "General, are you okay?
Who is this person?"
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "You don't have to ask so many questions.
I'm fine.
I sent someone to inform Zuo Jinwu Guards, saying that a certain person was assassinated by an assassin on his way home.
The assassin has been killed by a certain person.
Ask them to send someone to clean up the mess immediately.
Find out the true identity of the assassin and the person behind him, and I am waiting for their verification results."
"promise" After returning home, Chen Qingying came over with her son Zhao Lei in her arms, followed by housekeeper Wang Ru, nephew Zhao Hu, Wang Zhiyun and others.
Chen Qingying saw Zhao Ziliang holding a seriously injured woman in his hands, and said in surprise: "Lang Jun, what’s going on?”
Zhao Ziliang said quickly as he walked: "A certain person was assassinated on his way home.
It was this chivalrous woman who killed the assassin and saved a certain person.
Go and ask the doctor to come over."
Steward Wang Ru immediately said: "Ru will send someone immediately."
Zhao Ziliang then ordered the black giant Nuer behind him: "Go and call Wang Can."
The doctor was quickly invited over, and Zhao Ziliang handed Nie Sanniang over to the doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
Since Nie Sanniang had a wound on her body, the doctor had to treat the wound, so Zhao Ziliang and some other men walked out because it was inconvenient to stay in the room.
Soon Chen Qingying came out with sweat on her forehead.
Zhao Ziliang immediately went to the wall and asked: "How is it?"
Chen Qingying smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr.
Lang.
The doctor said that the girl is very strong.
Although she lost a lot of blood, as long as she nourishes her well, there shouldn't be a big problem and she will wake up soon."
"Okay, okay" Zhao Ziliang breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Wang Can and Nuer rushed over and said, "General, please find someone."
When Zhao Ziliang heard this, he turned around and waved to Wang Can: "Come to the study."
The two came to the study room, Zhao Ziliang said: "Tonight someone wanted to assassinate someone again, but Nie Sanniang stopped him.
She killed the assassin and was seriously injured herself.
This time the opponent used a military crossbow.
"The crossbow arrows are poisonous.
If this kind of killer weapon is used in the dark, even a certain person may not be able to escape."
"There is such a thing."
Wang Can was shocked and said: "He was sent by Li Linfu again."
Zhao Ziliang said: "It should be him.
Apart from him, no one else has the courage.
A certain person sent Ashina to go undercover next to him.
He just wanted her to say good things for a certain person in front of Li Linfu and stop targeting a certain person again and again.
From now on, Judging from the situation, she did not play this role at all.”
Wang Can nodded and said: "What the general said is true.
What the general meant is that she is useless."
"No" Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "Since she has no ability to make Li Linfu obey his words, then change her undercover mission and let her provide us with Li Linfu's every move.
If she wants to escape from control, then let her die."
"promise" Since Ashina entered Li Linfu's side, it has never had any effect.
What happened today made Zhao Ziliang realize that Ashina, a woman, would not be so obedient, and cooperating with her would be tantamount to Seeking skin from a tiger.
Moreover, since Li Linfu can achieve the position of prime minister, women are just tools for his pleasure.

It will be difficult to seduce him with beauty.
In the next few days, there will be competitions for the Local Ranking and the Tian Ranking respectively.
There are fewer people choosing the Local Ranking and the Tian Ranking.
The method of competing for ranking is different from competing for the Strong Ranking.
The competition for these two lists mainly depends on the total score, not Conduct elimination rounds.
There are two types of examinations in the ground list.
One is the examination of infantry and mounted archery.
These two examinations account for fifty points.
The other is the examination of actual leadership and formation of troops.
These two examinations account for fifty points.
A total of 100 points will be scored.
After all exams are completed, the candidates will be ranked.
Candidates with a score of 90 or above will finally have a military formation duel to determine the top ones.
The Tianbang exam also tests force and intelligence, but the force category only accounts for 20 points, while the strategy category accounts for 80 points.
However, the finals and semi-finals of the Earth Ranking and the Heaven Ranking are real battles of commanding troops, which is different from the one-on-one duel on the Hero Ranking.
While the competition for the rankings on the Earth Ranking and the Heavenly Ranking of the Military Examination was in full swing, the list of candidates for the Civil Examination was finally released.
For this purpose, Zhao Ziliang went to the gate of Gongyuan to look at the list.
The scholars gathered around At the door, look at the list posted on the wall to see if your name is on it.
The scholars who were on the list were all ecstatic, and many of them were almost crazy, while those who were not on the list were dejected, and many of them became stupid.
In the last three days of the martial arts examination, the semi-finals and finals of the human ranking, local ranking and heaven ranking will be held respectively.
The semi-finals are held in the morning and the finals are arranged in the afternoon.
This allows the candidates to have sufficient rest and preparation time, and also allows them to Many viewers made time.
On September 15th, the semi-finals of the rankings were held in the morning.
The duel was between Bai Xiaode and Pugu Huai'en.
Both of them were generals, but the people of the Tang Dynasty were very tolerant and did not oppose or resent them just because they were generals.
On this morning, tens of thousands of Chang'an citizens, officials, nobles, and relatives of the emperor gathered in the stands of the Grand Campus.
All the stands around were full.
With the arrival of the emperor and his concubines, the semi-finals officially began.
What embodies the highest force value of a general is cavalry combat.
This is the most direct expression of personal force in the cold weapon era.
Bai Xiaode and Pugu Huai'en did not wear helmets except for their armors.
This was related to the habits of their generals.
The generals and soldiers thought that wearing helmets was a burden.
Even if they were wearing helmets, it would be a burden to strike with a sword.
He will be hacked until he faints.
Fainting on the field is no different from death.
Both of them wore jewelry.
Bai Xiaode had a large shiny steel ring hanging on his left ear.
It was actually made of silver.
Many ethnic groups believe that silver can ward off evil spirits, so they wear it as jewelry, while gold does not have this effect.
In addition, there is a lace band tied on his forehead; Puguhuai'en has a huge silver dog collar hanging on his neck, and there are some jingling ornaments hanging on the big dog collar.
The weapons in the semi-finals and finals are different from before, and the rules are also different.
All weapons are not sharpened, and the rules are unlimited.
They try to imitate the real battlefield as much as possible, so that candidates can do their best without any scruples, but because the weapons are not sharpened, Try to save the candidates' lives as much as possible.
Apart from the referee and a few handymen, only Bai Xiaode and Pugu Huai'en on horseback were left on the entire school field.

After the referee walked between the two and loudly announced some matters, he gave an order to signal the official start of the semi-finals.
The two stared at each other for a long time.
Even though they were far apart, the audience could feel a chilling atmosphere.
This was murderous intent.
Both Bai Xiaode and Pugu Huai'en had been on the battlefield for several years.
Especially Bai Xiaode, who used to work overnight without accepting it.
Finally, the two rode towards each other at the same time.
Just when the two sides were about to come into contact, Bai Xiaode suddenly flew up from the horse, holding a three-pointed two-edged knife and slashed at the head of the oncoming Pugu Huai'en.
Tens of thousands of spectators watched and exclaimed.
This was when Pugu Huai'en had to put the gun barrel above his head, and only heard a blocked sound.
Bai Xiaode drew back his waist and raised his legs at an extremely fast speed, and kicked Pugu with both feet.
Wynn's chest, this speed is really too fast, and Bai Xiaode's position is very advantageous, so he can easily complete this attack.
Pugu Huai'en was kicked away by Bai Xiaode's feet and fell backwards from the horse.
If his back fell to the ground, he would lose.
He was shocked.
He immediately took back the spear in his hand and propped it on the ground with the tail of the gun to save himself from losing his back.
He landed on the ground, but at this moment Bai Xiaode also came to kill him from the front
