In the courtyard pavilion, Li Ling was admiring the fish swimming in the pool under the railing. From time to time, he would grab a handful of fish feed on the plate with his fingers and scatter it into the water, watching the fish below fight for the fish that was dropped.
particle.
Hei Lin made a move for swallows to return to their nests, then flew down and landed beside Li Ling. He looked at Li Ling's sharp left face and said: "Over there in the dark night, I have already made arrangements. Tomorrow night
It’s the time of the general attack on the city lord’s palace.”
Li Ling stopped grabbing the particles in the plate, but took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands clean, turned around and walked to the stone table, placed the plate on the stone table, looked forward with blank eyes, and said: "Okay
, tomorrow night, we are going to make a big fuss in the City Lord's Mansion again."
Hei Lin held the railing with both hands, raised his head, looked at the setting sun and said: "If we fight tomorrow night, many people will die. The price is really high."
"Yes, no one wants to fight, but God forces you to fight with others. If you don't kill others, others will kill you. This is how the world is." Li Ling has been working as a killer for so many years.
He takes life and death lightly, it is just a matter of opening and closing one's eyes.
"Just like my family, which has not offended anyone, was exterminated overnight. Mercy will only bring greater disasters. In the battle tomorrow night, I will never show mercy to any enemy.
"Heilin clenched his fists and said with cold eyes.
"Heilin, can you tell me what your family does?" Li Ling turned his head, looked at Heilin's back and asked curiously.
Hei Lin sobbed and used her fingers to pick off the tears on her face. Her swaying body seemed to fall down at any time. Only holding on to the railing could make Hei Lin feel better. She sobbed and said, "My father is Bai Yun.
The chief of the Dongcheng City Guards is responsible for the security affairs of the entire Dongcheng."
"That means he is equivalent to the supreme manager of Dongcheng." Li Ling slowly sat on the chair, folded his arms and looked at Hei Lin seriously.
Hei Lin turned around, leaned his butt against the railing, and leaned backwards. His curved figure was clearly visible. Hei Lin raised his head. Looking at the setting sun, he shook his head and said calmly: "The top manager of Dongcheng is the princess.
The chief of the department is equivalent to the leader or person in charge of the entire Dongcheng."
Li Ling roughly understood that if the chief was equivalent to the commander, then Hei Lin's father, the commander-in-chief of the Dongcheng Guard, would be the general.
"Since your father has such a high position, who has the guts to destroy your family? Doesn't the princess just ignore it?" Li Ling tapped his fingers on the table and analyzed it step by step in his mind.
"I don't know. When my family was wiped out, it was my mother who covered me with her body, and I was saved from being killed by those thieves. If you let me know who did it, I will definitely kill those people to pieces.
There are tens of thousands of corpses." Heilin slapped his palm on the stone railing, and there was a bang. The railing cracked directly after being slapped by Hei Lin. Fortunately, Hei Lin didn't use his true energy. Otherwise, the railing would probably have become a pile.
Wasted stone.
Li Ling supported his chin with his hand, blinked a few times, opened his eyes suddenly and said, "Perhaps, I know who killed your father? But, I still need some evidence, otherwise, I dare not draw a conclusion."
Li Ling's words immediately shocked Hei Lin's delicate body. Hei Lin immediately grabbed Li Ling's arm, squeezed Li Ling's arm hard and said, "Who is it? Tell me quickly."
Li Ling shook his head and sighed slightly: "I can't tell you for the time being, for fear that you will do something stupid. After all, I am just guessing, and it may not be him."
"Who is it? Tell me." Hei Lin's other hand also trembled and grabbed Li Ling's arm.
"This person can't speak for the time being. Let's consider the recent events first." Li Ling frowned tightly. Since Li Ling said he couldn't speak, he naturally wouldn't speak. But Hei Lin still didn't give up.
Still holding Li Ling's arm tightly, Li Ling couldn't stand Hei Lin's pleading eyes.
"Heilin, since your father is the chief of the Dongcheng Guard, he is under one person in Dongcheng. So, it can be said that it is impossible for other people to touch your father. Therefore, the only explanation is..." Li Ling said
It stopped here. In fact, it goes without saying that Hei Lin already understood.
Hei Lin took two steps back and said with an abnormal expression: "Li Ling, you mean... the person who killed my father was none other than the head of Dongcheng."
"This is a guess, it may not be him, so you don't need to take it seriously for the time being." Li Ling patted Hei Lin on the shoulder and said comfortingly.
"When you say that, I think it's a bit possible, because my father once had a falling out with the boss because of something. It's very likely that the boss destroyed my clan in order to take revenge on my father." Hei Lin said.
Her breathing became rapid, and the hatred in her chest almost made her lose her mind.
"Don't draw a conclusion so early. If the county is the same as the city, and the princess does not allow others to kill people in the city, then your father was exterminated. Such a thing may have been tacitly approved by the princess."
Li Ling mentioned all the possibilities, which made Hei Lin lose his energy immediately.
"If this is the case, then the mastermind behind the scenes turned out to be the princess of Baiyun County. What on earth did my father do wrong to lead the princess to come and destroy the family?" Heilin kept scratching his hair with his fingers, as if this was the only way.
Only then can you make yourself more comfortable.
"You don't have to be like this. With my help, the mystery of your annihilation will come to light sooner or later. Also, with my help, you don't have to be afraid." Li Ling raised his hand and hugged Hei Lin.
The girl has a solid shoulder to lean on.
…
At night, there were already more than a hundred men in black outside the city lord's mansion, holding short swords used by assassins in their hands, ready to attack the city lord's mansion at any time. Knowing that Hei Lin would give the order, it would be a big battle.
In fact, every killer present knew that this would be Ye Cheng's last mission. In other words, in other cities, few people could complete such a mission. Not everyone at the city lord level could kill him.
Heilin has been hiding behind some houses, and there are also a large number of killers surrounding the City Lord's Mansion. It is not easy to break in from the periphery of the City Lord's Mansion. The strength of the city guards of the City Lord's Mansion is not too bad either.
The lowest ones are those at the urban warrior level.
"Li Ling, how long do we have to wait?" Hei Lin asked, looking at Li Ling who was deep in thought.
Li Ling looked at the night. The moon was very bright tonight, but he never wanted to go in.
"As soon as we start to attack, we have to take advantage. We don't have the advantage of geographical location, so we can only rely on the weather. The time is waiting for the moon to enter the dark clouds, and when the soldiers change shifts. At these two times, the attack will be against the enemy.
It's our most advantageous time." Li Ling kept staring at the moon above his head, and as soon as the moon entered the dark clouds, he would ask Heilin to give orders.
However, the moon is particularly strange tonight. The sky is very clear, the stars are brighter than usual, and the moon is not covered by dark clouds.
"I'm afraid it's hard to wait for this kind of opportunity, but when will the city guard's shift change?" Hei Lin also looked at the moon anxiously and asked.
"Usually it's three to ten minutes, but now there's still half an hour before the third watch, so I'd better look at the moon." Li Ling continued to look at the moon in the night sky.
Hei Lin sighed slightly and called a killer over: "Tell Kaile, Hua Tian, and Zhan Xiong that as soon as my arrow is fired, they will take action immediately, enter the city, and kill everyone they see. Do you understand?"
"
"I got it, Sister Lin." The black-clothed killer immediately went down to deliver this message.
Fortunately, no one is allowed to live in the streets near the city lord's palace. Otherwise, such a large number of people appearing at the same time would not disturb ordinary people.
Li Ling shook his neck and slowly sat down against the wall, looking straight at the moon in the sky in a daze.
"Tonight, if the moon doesn't come in, won't we have to wait outside until dawn." Hei Lin also squatted down slowly and said depressedly.
"It's important to have the opportunity first, so don't be anxious. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. This is an old man's advice, and you must listen to it." Li Ling put his hands on his knees and looked at the sky peacefully.
A few more minutes passed, and there was an east wind outside. Suddenly there was a black cloud, which was gradually blown to the west by the wind, gradually covering the moon, and suddenly the surrounding area became dark.
"Now, attack." Li Ling said hurriedly. (To be continued...)
