The village is not big, with only a dozen families. It was massacred by a military disaster more than ten years ago. Now it has become a ruin. Many thatched houses have collapsed and are dilapidated. It has become a dead village with no one in order to attract killers.
come over.
A bonfire was burning in an open space in the middle of the village. Xue Rengui was sitting by the bonfire waiting. Next to him stood a team of village guards. There were many hidden around, all wearing camouflage and blending in with the environment, making it difficult to see through. On the battlefield
,Xue Rengui never underestimated the enemy and made mistakes.
The bonfire danced and crackled, reflecting Xue Rengui's resolute and stern face, and the moonlight lengthened the shadow.
On a hillside in the east, Li Derjian looked up into the distance, looking at the bonfire, and his heart was pounding. He couldn't help but think of the plan that Xue Rengui had revealed three days ago. How could he be tempted? That was the crown prince, the heir apparent, who would ascend to the top of the Dabao in the future.
existence, and why did the father agree?
He really couldn't figure it out, so Li Derjian simply stopped thinking about it. His troops were already on the move, and his arrows were on the bowstring. He hoped that he would not be the real prince, otherwise the Tang Dynasty would probably change that day.
Several generals came over and saluted with clasped fists. Everyone was full of doubts. They didn't know what they were doing and didn't dare to ask any more questions. One of them said: "Sir, the brothers have already set up an ambush as planned and nothing unusual has been found."
At this point, it was time to reveal some information. Li Derjian solemnly reminded: "Remember, our opponent this time is the Fengyu Tower killer. Wait for my order to kill without mercy. The battle at Shenjian Villa is not perfect. The Operations Department is responsible for
Shame, whether we can turn over depends on this battle, return to our respective positions and act as planned."
"Follow the order!" Everyone clasped their fists and left, feeling an inexplicable fighting spirit in their hearts.
Although the battle at Shenjian Villa was won, the losses were not small. What was even more aggrieved was that the Holy Emperor ruled that the operation failed. The three leading generals were now imprisoned in the sky prison waiting to be dealt with. They all hated the Fengyu Tower killer and held their breath.
Now that we have the opportunity to avenge our past humiliation, everyone is excited.
In Qijia Village.
Xue Rengui didn't know that the people in the Supervisory Office were holding their breath and waiting for revenge, but he believed that Li Derjian would handle it well, but he didn't know if Luo Zhang was in place? His eyes couldn't help but look to the west, but they were blocked by the woods. However, with the relationship between Luo Zhang and Qin Huaidao,
, I’m sure he won’t come.
Just as he was thinking about it, a team member hurried over: "Captain, someone is coming."
"Go down with the order and stay hidden. No one is allowed to take action without an order." Xue Rengui solemnly ordered.
The other party agreed and hurriedly ran to deliver the order. Xue Rengui looked towards the entrance of the village. Under the moonlight, a group of men in black hurried over, holding various weapons in their hands. The number of people was about the same as Shen Mei had told them. Xue Rengui looked further away.
It's gray everywhere, and I don't know if any killers have come?
Village entrance.
Two village guards blocked the way, and one of them said: "Stop."
"Here is Shen Mei, here with orders." Shen Mei cupped her fists and saluted.
The team member protecting the village said with a cold face: "Young Master is inside, you go there first, and the others wait first."
Shen Mei hesitated for a moment, but agreed to go in. The others did not agree and looked at each other. One of them asked: "Master Qin is really here?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? The young master is busy and has no time to meet everyone one by one. If anything happens, he will explain it to Shen Mei. You just need to follow Shen Mei's instructions." The team member guarding the village said nonsense according to Xue Rengui's instructions.
This statement is reasonable and reasonable. The dignified Lord Protector is indeed very busy and has a noble status. It is not necessary to meet everyone one by one. He meets Shen Mei alone and then conveys to everyone that there is nothing wrong with them through Shen Mei.
In the crowd, one person's eyes flashed, and he looked inside and saw a person sitting by the bonfire, with several people standing behind him. They were very impressive, but they were a bit far away, so they couldn't see clearly. He didn't know if it was Qin Huaidao. After waiting for a moment, Shen Meileng Return with a straight face.
In the interview just now, Xue Rengui bluntly said that he wanted to test whether there was an undercover agent. Shen Mei was very angry at Xue Rengui's distrust, but she could also understand Xue Rengui's caution and agreed to cooperate. When she came up, she said: "Chen Mo, Mr. Qin calls you."
"Ah, Mr. Qin called me?" a middle-aged man asked in surprise.
Shen Mei just called someone casually and told everyone that Qin Huaidao was really inside. She pretended to be impatient and said: "Master Qin has something to do. I recommended you to Master Qin. Go quickly and don't keep Master Qin waiting."
"Thank you." The other party handed over his hand, but his eyes flickered.
Shen Mei caught this look and said, her heart skipped a beat, is there really a problem? She pretended to be dissatisfied and tried, "What, you don't want to go?"
"No, no." The other party smiled and walked forward hesitantly.
After walking for a short distance, the man felt guilty and worried that it was a trap for him. He gritted his teeth and took out a sky cannon from his arms. He twisted out the fire stick, blew it and lit it. The sky cannon shot straight into the night sky and exploded with a burst of fire. .
"You are looking for death!" Shen Mei was furious and rushed forward, stabbing with a sword, her eyes as cold as ice.
The opponent's skills were not weak either. He drew his sword and struck back. The weapons collided and sparks flew everywhere. They both took two steps back. Shen Mei pointed her sword far away and said coldly: "I trust you so much in vain. Why?"
"Why, of course it's for the sake of future, kill the Lord Protector, brothers can get half a million guan, why don't you do it yet." The other party shouted to the others with this last sentence.
Three more people suddenly drew their swords and slashed at the people around them.
Everyone is a well-trained killer. They were on guard when they sensed something was wrong. When they saw the knife coming at them, they retreated and avoided the attack. Shen Mei's face turned livid with anger when she thought of questioning Xue Rengui's injustice just now. Trust, feel aggrieved, angry, my face is burning at this moment.
"Chen Mo, you three are looking for death." Shen Mei said coldly.
"I don't know who will die yet." Chen Mo sneered.
The two men fought together again, but their strength was equal, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while. No one noticed that the two team members who were protecting the village had evacuated.
Soon, a large number of men in black rushed out from the gray moonlight, each one silent and with cold eyes, like demons emerging from hell. When Shen Mei saw this scene during the battle, she was shocked and suddenly thought of Xue Rengui. The warning just now, shouted: "Follow me!"
After saying this, Shen Mei swished a few quick-handed sword moves, forcing Chen Mo to retreat. The two sides opened some distance, and Shen Mei took the opportunity to rush towards the village, with the others following closely behind Shen Mei.
Chen Mo did not pursue him immediately, but sneered: "Run... where can you run to?"
Shen Mei ran all the way to the bonfire, clasped her fists and said, "Sir, Shen Mei made a mistake. I am willing to die to apologize. I beg you to let Shen Mei's child go."
"Do you believe it now?" Xue Rengui asked calmly without getting up, but he was ecstatic in his heart. He really caught a big fish and made a lot of money.
"I believe it. There are many of them. Please leave quickly. Even if Shen Mei dies, she will block them for a while." Shen Mei was so angry that she didn't know what to say. She hated those people who betrayed her.
"You are still somewhat loyal. Get behind me and don't block tonight's guests." Xue Rengui smiled, threw a piece of dry wood into the bonfire, clapped his hands, confident and fearless.
Shen Mei suddenly remembered that since Xue Rengui had already expected it, how could he be unprepared? The killing tonight was not aimed at the betrayers, but at the other killers in Fengyu Tower. This was to be done at once, but were these people enough? Shen Mei I couldn't help but look around, but there were only a dozen or so people there.
However, Shen Mei did not insist and chose to obey. She said to the people behind her: "Go behind the master and protect him carefully. Don't let anything happen to the master."
Everyone vaguely guessed something, but they were not sure. However, Xue Rengui asked everyone to come behind him. This was a sign of trust. They could rest assured and quickly followed Shen Mei to stand behind Xue Rengui and treat him seriously.
At this time, a large number of people in black rushed over and dispersed to both sides. There must have been two to three hundred people. A middle-aged man stepped forward, his cold eyes locked on Xue Rengui for an instant, and his eyes suddenly changed: "Aren't you the Lord Protector?"
"It's not difficult to lead you out of the cave." Xue Rengui sneered, still sitting and motionless.
"What a plan. I didn't expect that the Lord Protector would have a capable person like you by his side, but so what, the moon is dark and the wind is high, the mountains are high and the roads are far away... If I kill you all, who would know it's us?" The other party sneered, raising his hand. The hand must give orders.
Xue Rengui also raised his hand and made a gesture.
"call out!"
A rocket shot up into the sky, like a shooting star, which was particularly eye-catching in the night.
The group of men in black immediately realized something was wrong when they saw the rocket, and they all looked at the leader. The leader's expression also changed, he stared at Xue Rengui and shouted: "It turns out we were prepared, so what, the night is our world, There are only a dozen of you, come to me and kill them all..."
Before he finished speaking, a burning log flew past as fast as lightning.
The other party was so shocked that he had no time to say the next words and quickly ducked to avoid it. The firewood hit the person behind him and entered his body. The pain caused the other person to scream and fall to the ground.
