Chapter 516: The Second Assassination (2)(1/2)

While the clan guards and the guards of the post station were fighting with dozens of thieves in the front yard of the post station, on the back wall of the post station, more than 20 black figures climbed over the wall and came into the post house.

It can be seen that this group of thieves is much more powerful than the thieves in the front yard. Whether they climb over the wall or jump into the wall, they do it silently, so that the soldier of the post guarding outside a house with a long gun,

He didn't even notice the movement behind him.

Get rid of him!

One of the dark figures seemed to be the leader of these people. He pointed at the soldier and then made a gesture of cutting his throat.

Beside him, there was another dark figure who nodded, crouched and quietly sneaked behind the soldier, covering his mouth and nose with his right hand, and with the dagger in his left hand, he instantly cut the soldier's throat.

The sudden attack from behind made the soldier's eyes widen in pain. He seemed to still want to struggle, but at this moment, the black figure who cut his throat did not stop with the sharp blade in his left hand.

It stabbed under the soldier's left rib and went straight to his heart.

The soldier was shocked, and then fell down softly.

The black shadow quietly dragged the soldier's body to the base of the wall. Then, after carefully looking around, he turned back and waved to his companions, which probably meant that the threat had been lifted.

In an instant, the two dozen black figures hiding at the base of the wall rushed over extremely quickly and silently.♂t

You guys go here, you guys go there, search house by house, the target should be around here.

The heads of these black figures were gesturing with their hands.

The dark figures nodded, and the twenty or so people were divided into three groups and headed in three different directions.

And one group of people went straight to the big house where Miss Su, Oona and other female relatives were.

At this time, the girls were staying quietly in the house. The sound of fighting in the front yard made them very scared. Therefore, as the eldest sister among the girls, Miss Su, although she was also worried, still

He forced out a smile and comforted Yang Yanxing, Oona, and the maid Lu'er.

In contrast, the two sisters Mijiang and Mirui were much calmer. The former was leaning against the wall next to the door with his sword in his arms, closing his eyes and concentrating as if waiting for something; while the younger sister Mirui was sitting on a table full of medicine.

Next to the jar table, someone was quietly humming the tune of Chu while mixing some kind of medicinal powder.

The two sisters seemed not to be worried about their current situation at all.

Because the room was too quiet, the silence made Miss Su feel uncomfortable, so she couldn't help but ask Mi Jiang: "Mi Jiang, aren't you... afraid?"

Mi Jiang slowly opened her eyes and asked expressionlessly: "Why are you afraid?"

"Why..." Miss Su was stunned. Before she could speak again, Yang Yanxing, who was comforting her in her arms, said timidly: "Sister Mi Jiang is very skilled in martial arts, she won't be afraid."

Seeing the expressions of the girls who seemed to have suddenly realized something, Mi Jiang did not explain anything.

Just in the bottom of my heart, several scenes emerged: a three or four-year-old girl, holding an infant girl, sitting blankly in the carriage, and outside the carriage, someone came to kill the two sisters.

The assassins and the guards sent by Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, to escort them to the country of Ba were killed. Corpses were everywhere, and screams could not be heard.

It doesn’t matter whether the martial arts or sword skills are great or not, it’s just that if you have more experience, you will naturally not care too much...

Secretly sighing, Mi Jiang's eyes suddenly turned sharp. She immediately unsheathed the sword in her arms and stabbed it out of the window with her backhand. She heard a muffled groan and the outside of the window paper was instantly stained red with blood.

"ah"

A scream, made up of several different voices mixed together, resounded in the room and then stopped abruptly.

It turned out that it was Miss Su who screamed subconsciously after seeing the blood on the window paper. She shut her mouth and covered the mouths of Oona and the maid Lu'er with her hands at the same time.

As for Yang Yanxing in her arms, she fainted after the scream.

At this time, outside the house, a dark figure who tried to peek into the house from the window was stabbed to the core by the sharp sword in Mi Jiang's hand. He lowered his head in disbelief at the sharp blade that penetrated his chest. He probably didn't even think about it until he died.

Tong, how would the people in the house know.

Is there an expert in the house?

The remaining six or seven shadowy figures were slightly startled when they saw this. Seeing that their whereabouts had been revealed, they simply stopped hiding. One of them raised his foot and kicked open the door with a bang.

Unexpectedly, after the door was kicked open, there was a little girl who looked fifteen or sixteen years old standing inside, wearing red and white clothes, looking at them with a smile.

That is none other than Mi Rui.

laugh?

Several black figures were stunned, but at this moment, they saw Xi Rui's right hand that seemed to be holding something come to her mouth, and then she blew a breath.

Suddenly, a ball of powder was blown onto the black figures.

how……

The dark figure standing at the front was suddenly shocked to find that his whole body was gradually feeling numb and itchy.

Before he could react, he only felt his legs soften and fell to the ground with a thud. Immediately, his whole body seemed to have a violent twitch of nerves. He couldn't help but want to cry loudly in pain, but he was shocked to find that,

He lost consciousness all over his body, and except for his eyeballs which could still move, he couldn't even move his mouth.

"Plop"

"Puff thump thump"

Several consecutive sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground were heard, and the six or seven black figures actually fell to the ground one by one, trembling and twitching.

Only one man in black could still grit his teeth and seemed to be struggling to get up. Unfortunately, even he could only move his left hand, and the rest of his body had lost consciousness.

"Huh? Why don't you fall?"

Xi Rui jumped up to the struggling man in black, knelt down and looked at him carefully. Then, in the latter's frightened eyes, she returned to the house and pinched a small amount of medicinal powder and said, "Huh!"

A loud sound blew towards him.

"One, two, three, four, five..."

Xi Rui counted happily. When she counted to five, the man in black could no longer hold on and fell to the ground with a pop. Except for his eyes, which could still move, he showed a look of panic.

Like a dead body.

"So weak..."

Mi Rui clapped her hands and muttered as if she was still unfinished: "Shen Yu and the others persisted until I counted to thirty..." As she spoke, she tilted her head and muttered as if she was unsure.

: "Huh? Is this the medicinal powder that was used for Shen Yu and the others? Well, it seems so, but it seems not..."

Just as she wrinkled her nose and thought, Mi Jiang walked out of the house holding a bloody sword. She looked around a few times with a puzzled look and murmured: "It's strange that these people are actually in Zong Wei's house."

He snuck here right under his nose..." After that, she turned to Mi Rui and said, "Sister, you stay here, I'll go to the front to see what's going on."

"Sister, just leave it to me with confidence."

Mi Rui said confidently.

Mi Jiang nodded, and was about to go to the front yard with the sword, when suddenly he seemed to think of something, and warned: "Sister, before using poison, remember to give the antidote to the women in the house first... Remember, first

Let them take the antidote!"

"I know!"

Mi Rui said angrily, her face turning slightly red.

After giving instructions to Mi Rui, Mi Jiang quickly ran to the front yard.

At this time, in the front yard, the clan guards commanded the soldiers in the post house and were still fighting with the thieves who had climbed over the wall from the front yard.

I saw these thieves wearing different clothes and using different weapons. Some used swords, some used knives, and some used short guns. They didn't look like the rumored hidden thieves who were good at assassination.

Like a group of rangers.

The so-called knight errant, that is, a wandering chivalrous person, is not a good word at first, and it has nothing to do with being a great chivalrous person who serves the country and the people. It just refers to some people who have a little bit of force and hope to make a name for themselves.

A martial artist who rose to great heights, but ended up wandering around earning bounties to make ends meet.

Note: In fact, the most appropriate name for this kind of people should be ronin, that is, a wandering scoundrel and a person with no fixed whereabouts. There are relevant written records as early as the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it is not a term from an island country. However, the author with obsessive-compulsive disorder

After typing this word, I always feel very awkward and inconsistent. There is no way, the words "ronin" and "drifter" have been taken away by the culture of a certain island country in a sense. This is the result of being imported by the culture, really

It's a very bad thing.

Rangers like this who wander around and earn a living by earning bounties and drinking money are simply a group of unorganized rabble in front of the clan guards and the soldiers at the post station. However, there are many of these people here this time, so

It just put the clan guards into a bitter battle.

No, some guys, not knowing whether it was for the high bounty, went crazy and broke through the defense lines of the clan guards and soldiers.

Seeing a dozen guys heading towards the house where Zhao Hongrun was, Wei Jiao felt anxious and shouted: "Chen Xiao, Chu Heng, go help Shen Yu!"

"I'm not your subordinate, why are you yelling at me?"

Chen Xiao muttered angrily, but did not resist Wei Jiao's order and went with Chu Heng to support Shen Yu.

It has to be said that Chen Xiao, who had a spear in his hand, had extraordinary strength. After the melee just now, he killed the most thieves.

When Chen Xiao and Chu Heng arrived at the house where Zhao Hongrun was, they found that Shen Yu had indeed fallen into a hard fight.

Of course, this hard battle does not mean that Shen Yu's life is in danger, but that he is really unable to do anything at all.

Who allowed Zhao Hongrun and He Zhirong to light candlelight and play chess in the house, so that these thieves ran towards the bright room one after another.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Chen Xiao and Chu Heng coming to support. Shen Yu, who was surrounded by seven or eight thieves at this time, did not care about himself at all and shouted: "Chen Xiao, guard the door!"

"They say I'm not your subordinate... Damn it!"

Chen Xiao scolded and ran quickly, because he clearly saw that a thief had bypassed Shen Yu and rushed into the house.
To be continued...
