As soon as Shen Zongwei got out of Xu Zizhen's control, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to order Kong Qilin to shoot the arrow, but suddenly he felt something heavy on his lower back, and it was shaking with his footsteps. He subconsciously touched it back, and felt it.
Something with round ends and a thin middle.
gourd?
Kong Qilin and Hu Youzu in the distance couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when they saw that Shen Zongwei had finally escaped. This was a close relative of the Prime Minister. If something happened in Suzhou, not only would their official career be over, but the Prime Minister would also be more likely to die.
He will vent his anger on himself in a fit of rage, which may lead to death.
But not long after they let go, they heard a loud bang, and a dazzling fire burst out from Shen Zongwei's back. The huge impact force violently threw his body out, like a broken weapon.
It fell far away like a sack on the ground.
Kong and Hu suddenly seemed to have had their souls sucked out, and they were speechless and stunned. Shen Zongwei lay motionless on the ground, his back was a bloody mess, and a big hole was opened in his waist, and blood and internal organs were scattered all over.
The ground is obviously very dead.
A long laugh suddenly came: "Hahaha! Even if you are a ghost, you still have to drink my foot-washing water!"
"Xu Zizhen!" Kong Qilin said these three words with red eyes and almost gritted his teeth. Shen Zongwei's tragic death made him hear the death knell ringing in his ears, but even if he died, he would cut this kid into pieces.
!
Hu Youzu had already collapsed, and his face was as gray as a mourning heir. At this time, he could not care about the safety of the master. He only had one thought in his mind: "It's over, it's over, my life is over!"
Xu Zizhen held the master's neck, stood at the far end and laughed to the sky, as if he had done something great that made him extremely happy. He pretended to be an opportunity to get the buns and hung a fire gourd on the silk ribbon around Shen Zongwei's waist.
, and while holding the master hostage, he unknowingly lit the fuse, and finally successfully blew up this insidious villain who was causing harm to the people.
Kong Qilin looked at his proud look and couldn't hold it back any longer. The veins on his forehead bulged and he roared: "Fire the arrow!"
The infantry archers waiting nearby had been aiming for a long time, and suddenly arrows rained down. Dozens of sharp arrows with cold light were shot at Xu Zizhen, making bursts of sharp wind. Xu Zizhen had already spotted the terrain when he retreated.
, dodged and hid behind a tree, and pushed the master outside.
There was a chaotic sound, and most of those arrow clusters hit the trees, while about ten more were nailed deeply into the master's body. The poor master watched the sharp arrows coming towards him but could not dodge.
He was shot like a hedgehog, his eyes wide open and he couldn't close his eyes. He never understood why he became Xu Zizhen's shield until his death.
Hu Youzu also came to his senses at this time. Now that the matter has come to this, he can only hold Xu Zizhen to divert the Prime Minister's anger. Seeing that the archer finished one round of shooting, he immediately waved his hand and roared through gritted teeth:
"Take him down with me!"
A whole group of infantrymen came up quickly, pointing their spears directly at Xu Zizhen. Kong Qilin also realized that capturing him alive and handing him over to the Prime Minister might offset some of his own mistakes, so a group of infantrymen who stayed behind in the mansion pressed forward at the same time.
, sandwiched Xu Zizhen in the middle. This is a straight street, and the road is not wide. Xu Zizhen is surrounded on both sides, and there is no hope at all.
Xu Zizhen suddenly walked out from behind the tree, threw the master's body at his feet, and stared at Kong and Hu coldly. Even though he was in a death situation, his eyes were still not timid and panic-stricken, but full of disdain and contempt.
He was a lazy man and had no ambitions. He just wanted to make some money and live a stable life. Even though Rong Xi repeatedly wanted him to contribute to the country, he never agreed. In his opinion, the Northern Song Dynasty was forced by the Jin Kingdom to become the Southern Song Dynasty.
This is the only path that history must take. He is just a mortal and does not have that much energy to go against the will of heaven.
From the day he first came to Suzhou, he was inexplicably involved in the case of kidnapping a civilian girl. In the end, he became a wanted criminal. But he didn't care at all. Xu Zizhen never regretted it in his life dictionary.
Two words, now the main culprit in this case, Shen Zongwei, was killed, and he also killed the master with a borrowed knife, avenging Lao Hua. He already felt it was worth it.
The bright swords and guns were approaching him. Xu Zizhen sighed secretly and prepared for the last move. He knew that if he fell into the hands of Kong and Hu, his life would be worse than death. It would be better to fight, even if he died.
It's better to be here than to be a prisoner.
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the crowd behind Xu Zizhen, followed by screams, and a line of fire shot into the sky, accompanied by billowing smoke.
"Explosives?" Xu Zizhen was startled. He turned around and saw that the soldiers who had been guarding the mansion suddenly fled in all directions. Soon, a piece of ground that had been burned black by the explosion and several soldiers covered in blood were revealed.
Suddenly a loud roar came from the top of a building not far away: "Big brother, run!"
Xu Zizhen looked up and saw a thin figure standing proudly on the top of the building, but it was He Liangliang. He held several gourds in his left hand and a fire medium in his right hand, lit a fuse and threw it down.
With a bang, this time it was the soldiers in front of Xu Zizhen who exploded, causing a commotion. Everyone present saw Shen Zongwei's death. Who didn't know how powerful this little gourd was? Suddenly no one cared about Xu Zizhen anymore.
As soon as I knew who it was that shouted, everyone immediately dispersed.
Xu Zizhen reacted very quickly and immediately realized that this was He Liangliang risking his life to create a chance for him to escape. He gritted his teeth, turned around and ran quickly. The area had already been blown up and all the soldiers were gone.
They fled, revealing the gurgling river at the corner of the street.
The foot archers were already stunned by the sight before them, and none of them reacted immediately. By the time they turned around and drew their bows, Xu Zizhen had already run far away.
Xu Zizhen lowered his body and ran forward in a curve, like a nimble civet cat. Seeing that the river was just ahead, he gritted his teeth and accelerated quickly, leaping into the river, but just before his feet
When he was off the ground, his back suddenly shook violently, followed by a heartbreaking pain.
Damn, I got hit by an arrow!
He did not dare to delay any longer, gritted his teeth and endured the pain, broke through the surface of the water and dived into the water. When Kong Qilin led his men to catch up, he only saw circles of ripples on the water. Xu Zizhen had disappeared, and He Liang on the roof.
The two of them had already taken advantage of the chaos and disappeared.
Kong Qilin looked extremely gloomy, slammed the knife in his hand into the water, and shouted hysterically: "Search for me!"
