Chapter 547: You used the crossbow, right?
Chen Yanchuan tilted his head slightly, as if smiling.
"If you want to kill me, you better aim better, okay?"
The man's face immediately turned blue with anger.
He looked disheveled, but actually the wounds on his body were fake. They were just two cuts made with a dagger, just for show. They would not have any effect on him at all.
But the arrow just now missed!
Even if he was a three-year-old child, he would have hit the target with such a short distance!
The people around him didn't expect such an accident to happen, and they all looked over.
The man frowned and reeled in the bow again!
"You don't have to be so arrogant! I'll have you later--"
The man's voice suddenly paused.
Because he suddenly found that the crossbow had become much heavier and he couldn't even hold it steadily!
He panicked for a moment.
how so?
He gritted his teeth secretly, and managed to set up the crossbow, and continued to pull it - but found that he couldn't pull it anymore!
At this moment, he finally realized that something was wrong: he had no strength in his hands!
No, not just his hands, but his whole body seemed to have suddenly lost its strength. No matter how hard he tried, his arms were limp and he couldn't string the bow, let alone shoot the arrow!
The more this happened, the more anxious and flustered he became, and it took him a long time to finish it.
This scene is extremely weird.
The prisoner holding a crossbow was only a few steps away from Shen Yanchuan, whom he wanted to kill, but he just couldn't position the weapon properly!
Chen Yanchuan watched at ease, and seeing this situation, he did not forget to kindly remind:
"If you really can't do it, please find someone else. You can't afford to waste my time."
This one sentence made the man opposite him so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"you!"
Bang!
He was so excited that his hands lost strength, and the arrow that he had not been able to load fell directly to the ground.
Deathly silence.
No one could have imagined that things would turn out like this!
The people nearby had already fought to exhaustion, and thought that using this thing would solve the problem once and for all, so they didn't have to worry about it anymore.
Who knows——
"I'll just go and kill him!"
Another impatient guy rushed out directly, but just after taking a step, he tripped somehow and fell straight to the ground.
If they still can't find the problem at this point, all these years would have been in vain.
The man in prison uniform finally understood, and a crazy rage surged in his heart.
"We've all been poisoned!"
It would be fine if he was the only one who was powerless, but now it seems that they have all been targeted by someone!
The first person he suspected was Chen Yanchuan, but after going over the scene just now in his mind, he couldn't figure it out.
Shen Yanchuan did fight with them for a while, but he only injured some of them.
Even if he poisoned them, the ones who were injured should have been the ones who had problems. How could all of them——
Suddenly, the tall and thin man dressed as a jailer took a deep breath and finally realized it belatedly and said in horror: "It smells like poison! Hold your breath!"
But it was too late.
They had been here for a long time and had no idea when the problem occurred. Now that they realized it, they had all been infected.
Bang!
The man couldn't hold on any longer, and the crossbow in his hand finally fell to the ground, hitting the ground heavily.
The other people also became anxious when they saw this, and they all rushed forward with swords in hand, but they all fell to the ground because their legs were too weak.
But in a moment, the situation reversed.
At this time, Chen Yanchuan was the only one still standing.
In front of him, a group of people fell down in the blink of an eye.
Light footsteps came from the front.
Shen Yanchuan's heart moved, and he looked up.
It was dark ahead, with only a shabby candle burning quietly.
A slender figure, clad in darkness and faint light, walked slowly towards them.
Her black hair was like clouds, loosely tied up with a white jade hairpin. Her skin was as white as snow, her black eyes were gentle, and she even had a faint smile on her face.
Ye Chutang's red lips curled up in a small arc, and her voice was clear and pleasant.
"My Lord, how are you?"
Chen Yanchuan stared at her closely, then smiled softly.
"Didn't we just meet?"
Ye Chutang walked forward and his eyes fell on the people lying on the ground.
Looking at their different attire, she was able to guess what was going on.
This murder was probably premeditated for a long time.
"The prince left something with me, I'm here to return it." Ye Chutang stopped and spoke with a smile.
Chen Yanchuan just looked at her like that, like it was the first time, like every time in the past.
"What is it? Is it important?"
Do you have to pay it back at this time?
Even willing to step into this dangerous place?
Ye Chutang did not answer his question directly. He half turned around and pointed at the people on the ground.
"Are these very powerful?"
Chen Yanchuan: “…”
It's as if she didn't poison these people.
Ye Chutang probably felt that his words sounded a bit sarcastic, so he changed his words: "I said force."
Shen Yanchuan said "hmm".
"They are all well-trained killers."
Ye Chutang nodded.
It takes a lot of effort and time to deploy such a dead end, and the people sent out are of course elite.
She turned around again, looked at Shen Yanchuan, and then walked forward.
The distance between them quickly narrowed, and she leaned forward slightly, almost close to Shen Yanchuan's shoulder.
Breathing can be heard.
Chen Yanchuan lowered his eyes slightly, but in his peripheral vision he could still see the creamy white cheeks and the plump lips like flower petals.
Now, as long as he tilts his head slightly——
Chen Yanchuan's whole body was tense, even more nervous than when he faced those people just now.
He silently tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword, his Adam's apple moving up and down, but he only felt his throat becoming drier.
Ye Chutang raised his hand, and the back of his warm, white hand brushed past his ear.
clang.
She pulled out the arrow.
Immediately, she took a step back and weighed the arrow casually, with a smile on her lips but a cold tone.
"They are all good things."
If she had missed the target by a little bit, or arrived a little later, the arrow would have shot into Shen Yanchuan's heart!
A hint of coldness flashed across her eyes, and she turned around immediately.
"The man is powerful, and the crossbow is powerful too. Not bad."
The few people lying on the ground were already panicked and angry by this sudden change, and they stared at Ye Chutang.
"You, you... such a sinister method!"
I thought I had made a perfect plan, but who knew such an accident would happen!
Ye Chutang glanced at him indifferently.
"I know I'm good at using poison. You don't need to remind me of that."
As she spoke, she walked up to the man and looked down at him.
"This is the crossbow you used just now, right?"
The man only felt that her black eyes were as cold as ice, and her whole body seemed to be filled with endless murderous intent, which was frightening!
He couldn't help but feel fear.
"What are you going to do--Ah!"
The snow-white sword edge flashed a silver arc of light.
The man screamed, covered his wrist and curled up on the ground like a shrimp, shaking violently because of the severe pain.
His wrists were covered in blood.
It turned out that his tendons had been cut!
