Chapter 273: Vulnerability and Killing (1)

The night is...like ink, and a group of people wearing indigo night clothes are like flowing ink under the cover of the night sky, seeping inside and outside the soil.

"Go and have a look." It seemed that there was a master of Qinggong in the Chamber of Commerce. Luo Xingzhou gently patted the opponent's shoulder and raised his chin. After accepting the order, the person escaped into the darkness, as if he was invisible.

Quality ghost.

"Chameleonman", this was Vasily Petrovich Sokolov's nickname.

As the saying goes, there is only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. Although Vasily has never heard of this sentence, if you tell him this sentence, he should also take it seriously, because he also likes it quite a lot.

My own nickname.

Vasily was born in a family of hunters, and both his father and ancestors made a living by hunting. Perhaps due to the strong genetic influence, Vasily showed unusually sharp five senses from an early age, and after being exposed to the strong atmosphere, he

He became an excellent little hunter. At only thirteen years old, Vasily could easily hunt even the most alert deer in the jungle with an old bow, a machete and homemade traps.

None of them were aware of the danger, and in the following years, the beasts in the Altera Mountains trembled for this young devil.

But after he came of age, Vasily liberated the antelopes, jerboas, lynxes and so on in the Altera Mountains, because the coming-of-age ceremony he prepared for himself was to hunt a bear alone.

As the largest carnivore on land, bears are often compared with tigers. Putting aside the controversial issue of which beast is more powerful, they are equally dangerous to humans. And wrapped in thick felt clothes, they are ambushing in

The weapon Vasily prepared for himself on the frozen soil was a matchlock gun.

In this pursuit battle full of ambushes and confrontations, the brilliant technological crystallization that brought mankind into the age of firearms finally defeated the primitive barbaric fangs and claws. But the decisive factor in this battle was

Vasily's strong will and superb skills.

Keen senses have created accurate marksmanship, strong skills have created superb concealment techniques, and Vasily is even proficient in pharmacology - this is a talent born for assassination, so Vasily was also successfully recruited from the East by the Chamber of Commerce.

Selected from the Theocracy's Guards, the title of "The Refugee" is also derived from this - his clean assassination techniques are frightening, and what's even more frightening is that you don't even know it before the moment he takes action.

Where did this person come from?

By the way, he was one of the four people who sniped at Guan Lingxiao that day, and the bullet that caused "fatal" damage to Guan Lingxiao also came from Vasily's gun. He was one of the people who later stole information from the prison cell of Lining County.

, there is also such a gentleman.

As a very hairy race, Vasily's hair and beard were rarely shaved cleanly. This was his habit. From the lower half of his face, he could easily be mistaken for a eunuch, but from the upper half of his face, he looked like a eunuch.

Fanseng, because too long hair will hinder the senses to a certain extent. I saw this guy with a smooth head picking up the edge of the brick very flexibly, and in the blink of an eye he was lying next to a window on the top floor.

Vasily used a dagger to carefully cut a small opening in the window paper along the window frame, and then took out a slender tube from his pocket. He put one end of the tube in his mouth and the other end into the window paper.

On the other side. This is his homemade smoke, which is powerful enough to fascinate a wild boar for several hours in a relatively open area in the jungle. The development of Western timekeeping tools is more advanced than that of the Sheng Dynasty, and their timekeeping methods are also somewhat different.

Different, when converted, one hour is equal to two hours, and one hour is divided into sixty minutes.

As an excellent hunter, Vasily's observation and memory are also very good. This is to distinguish the movements of prey, and through the surrounding reconnaissance in the first half of the night, he memorized all the windows with candlelight, so he made it every day

The same behavior was replicated in each window - the person responsible for performing this task on the other side was his apprentice Pavel, and Vasily had no worries about his abilities.

After completing his own move to lay down the smoke, Vasily climbed up to the roof alone. More than ten minutes later, Pavel climbed up quietly as well, but the two did not communicate using words and beat each other.

After a few gestures, they parted ways and left.

Some people may think that the behavior of the two is unnecessary, but it is very necessary from the perspective of safety and concealment - even if the leader is not Luo Xingzhou, a Shengguo native, everyone understands that one of the precepts of the Chamber of Commerce is to strictly prohibit private conflicts with officials.

, to avoid unnecessary trouble, this was stipulated by Qi Jun himself, and the third prince had no choice but to take such risky measures. Zhao Xike and others also made the same considerations when escorting the prisoners, and stayed at official posts along the way for safety reasons.

, this also made it harder for the Chamber of Commerce to act rashly, rushing in and killing everyone in sight. As for Vasily's behavior itself, he and Pavel acted at the same time to improve efficiency, and once the other party made any mistakes,

They can also take care of each other and make up for it in time, and the direction the two of them took when they parted was also because they had other missions ahead - before that, they had each found a higher position, ready to coordinate the battlefield and snipe at any fish that slipped through the net.

The sound of the musket is extremely loud, and it will not be fired easily at the last moment, but as long as it is fired, it must be ensured that no one is left alive.

"How long will it take before we can take action?" Seeing Vasily return to the formation, Luo Xingzhou confirmed to him.

Vasily took his musket from his companion, took out his handkerchief and wiped the barrel of the gun, and replied without raising his head: "I will be in charge of this for about ten minutes, but there was a room in Pavel's place that was not occupied at the time.

Some people were not asleep, so they delayed for a while before starting, so they had to wait for at least thirty minutes - I personally prepared the smoke, which is enough to ensure that they are unconscious until dawn, so this time is not lost, just wait patiently. "

Patience, this is what Vasily excels most among his peers, and is also the most important quality for a hunter and even a killer - he can stare at his prey motionlessly in the ice and snow for a whole day and night in order to find the perfect opportunity, just for the sake of

Fire the most lethal shot.

"You only have one strike first." This is an ancestral saying that Vasily heard from his father. It contains two meanings. One is the pride of the Sokolov family in their shooting skills, and the other is to educate future generations to remember this.

It's important to kill with one hit, because the beast won't give you a chance to shoot a second arrow.

The young Vasily once disagreed with this, but after he almost died under the tusks of a wild boar, he finally understood why his father's expression was so serious when he introduced his ancestral teachings to him.

A person only needs to fall once.

…………

Vasily took out his pocket watch again and looked at the time, then nodded towards Luo Xingzhou.

The order was passed, and the large army would silently enter this quiet inn in five minutes, and then kill the people inside silently. There were still two people as the advance team to conduct the test - this time they were dispatched

There were two people from the Sheng Kingdom. After taking off their night clothes, they revealed their disguises. One of them was pretending to be a scholar, and the other was pretending to be a book boy. They each rode a skinny horse and carried a lamp.

Before the tense killing array struck, the rapid tapping of horse hooves was almost the only sound - they could not slowly wander into the courtyard of the inn, because that was not at all in line with the mentality of late-night travelers looking for a place to stay.

There will be flaws, and they can't leave any flaws.

The person pretending to be a book boy tied up the horse and knocked on the door. After several knockers, there was still no response. The book boy pushed the door open with all his strength - an ordinary inn at this time

The door may have been bolted, and there is nothing you can do except use delicate tools to open it and use great force to work miracles, but the official post has never been like this - although the official post is not only prepared for official officials, but because it is expensive

It is favored because of its excellent decoration, excellent environment and excellent security. You don't know which dignitaries will stay late at night, so you should keep the doors open all night and welcome them - just leave someone to watch the door.

The book boy asked several times in a low voice in the lobby of Guanyi, and then looked around the lobby. Finally, he found the waiter who was unconscious on the ground in a corner with a rag in his hand. It seemed that this guy was there.

It seemed that he was cleaning the table before he passed out, but instead of finishing the attack, he blew a pipe of smoke into the opponent's mouth and nose - a person might cry out in pain, which would be troublesome if he woke up the main target upstairs.

, so there is no rush to kill him.

After doing all this, he signaled to his accomplice who was sitting at the door, and when his accomplice knew how to go out and greet the large army, he also slipped into the counter and plundered some scattered silver coins.

…………

Pavel concentrated on holding the flintlock gun in his hand tightly, with the index finger of his right hand gently resting on the trigger. After seeing the large troops filing in from the north and south gates, he devoted all his attention to the battlefield.

He should be regarded as Vasily's most proud disciple. Apart from his lack of experience, he also learned 80% of Vasily's skills. Of course he was the one who assassinated Guan Lingxiao and stole the county government office. And he was still very young, only nineteen years old now.

At this age, there is still a long way to go.

"What a beautiful view." A sudden voice sounded above his head. Pavel's hair stood on end, and the blood in his body rushed to his brain. He was about to scream, but was stuck by a hand from above.

On the throat.

When did this guy... come behind me? I didn't even notice it at all? Pavel is quite confident in his observation skills. He is not even weaker than Vasily in this regard, but at this time he was supposed to be lurking.

The killer in the dark was actually choked?

The opponent's wrist was very strong, and Pavel didn't even have the strength to pull the trigger and fire a shot. During the struggle, he glanced at the opponent's face with his peripheral vision - no matter what, at least he let me signal to everyone that there was a problem...

Yes!

It was the face of a man who was about thirty years old and had gone through many changes. His appearance was above the level of ordinary people, and it would not leave a very deep impression on others.

But in the eyes of Pavel, a "companion", this man's terrifying similar temperament is simply terrifying. When facing him, he seemed to see his master.

But the man didn't let Pavel think for too long. He simply crushed the other man's throat, picked up the gun and hung it on his shoulder. Finally, he groped for Pavel's body for a while, and finally disappeared at the bottom of the slope.
