The sweaty horse jumped up suddenly. Not only Bai Yan didn't expect it, but also the other sergeant and the mare didn't expect it.
The killer was directly stepped on and flew out.
Bai Yan was overjoyed, rushed forward and slashed at the killer's neck.
With a click, the knife struck the killer's shoulder blade.
This sword was a bit misplaced. On the one hand, the killer was too strong and he reacted immediately. On the other hand, Bai Yan had little actual combat experience and was not very accurate.
Bai Yan was not discouraged and slashed at the killer again.
With several consecutive stabs, the killer was left bloody and bloody.
The mare also rushed over, looking very irritable, and stamped on her.
After a lot of trouble, the killer was already unrecognizable and his whole body was about to turn into pulp.
The sergeant's scalp was numb when he saw it. He had seen too many dead people, but he had to say that this person's death was so tragic that he was really unrecognizable.
Bai Yan dropped the knife and gasped for air.
Fortunately, I won.
"Thank you!"
Bai Yan looked at the sweaty horse and expressed his sincere gratitude.
The sweaty horse fell to the ground again and let out a cry in response.
The mare returned to the sweat horse and lay quietly aside, acting as a guard.
The sergeant also reacted and walked back into the trap to check to make sure there was no hidden killer.
"Master Bai, I'm sorry, we just ignored..."
The sergeant apologized.
They went into the trap before but didn't find the killer. They were too careless.
Fortunately, Bai Yan was fine, otherwise he would have been too embarrassed to see the Marquis of Zhenbei.
"It's okay, the enemy is too cunning, I will intercede for you in front of the Marquis." Bai Yan said nonchalantly.
He did not doubt that these people had problems. One sergeant might have problems, but there were four of them, so it was impossible for all of them to have problems.
The sergeant breathed a sigh of relief, with more gratitude in his eyes, and solemnly said: "Master Bai, I, Huang Ergou, owe you my life."
"You're welcome, but your name..." Bai Yan couldn't help but want to laugh.
As for whether he owed a life or not, he didn't respond. He didn't understand how Qing Gong managed the army, and he didn't know what these people valued more. If others said they owed it, it was fine, and he didn't care anyway.
"My father picked it up. My father is a rough man and has never read a book." Huang Ergou smiled innocently, but he was no longer so embarrassed.
After chatting for a few words, the two stopped talking.
Huang Ergou became alert, while Bai Yan closed his eyes to cultivate himself.
Soon, Qing Gong came back covered in blood. Seeing the tragic situation, he frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
"Master Hou, have they all been killed?" Bai Yan asked.
"Two were caught, the others are dead, and none escaped. There is just some trouble." Qing Gong said solemnly.
"Oh? Is it over in Kyoto?" Bai Yan looked at Qing Gong.
Qing Gong shook his head: "It's not Kyoto, it's the Black Shark Gang. These people are from the Black Shark Gang. After killing so many of them this time, I'm afraid they won't let it go. I'm worried that the Black Shark Gang will jump over the wall in a hurry."
After killing so many people from the Black Shark Gang, the Black Shark Gang would not let it go. He himself was not worried, but Bai Yan was in danger.
Bai Yan also became solemn. Black Shark helped him know that it was a very large gang in the North, a hegemon-level existence, and controlled the canal.
Merchants who want to use the canal have to pay tolls to the Black Shark Gang, and the canal envoys are helpless.
Because of this, the Black Shark Gang gradually grew stronger, gathering hundreds of people, and tended to crush the Canal Envoys.
With so many people dead this time, it would be strange if the Black Shark Gang didn't take revenge.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. My family is also the overlord of one side. It's not that easy to kill me." Bai Yan said nonchalantly.
There are so many guards in the Bai family. It's not that easy to kill him.
If he hides at home and does not come out, even if the Black Shark Gang comes out in full force, it will be difficult to kill him.
"That's what you say, but how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days? Recently, Sang Kou has not dared to come out, but he can wipe out the Black Shark Gang." Qing Gong's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Although he didn't ask anything, he could tell that his men were severely injured and Bai Yan must have encountered a life-or-death crisis.
There was also Meng Yuan, who was covered in wounds. He probably blocked Bai Yan's sword. He carefully planned the layout and was full of confidence.
In the end, Bai Yan encountered crises twice. Without this scapegoat, he really didn't know how to meet Bai Yan.
Bai Yan saved him, but he put Bai Yan in danger again and again... If he didn't kill those people, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
"Master Hou, I'm afraid this is inappropriate? What if the Sang bandits come to kill you?" Bai Yan questioned.
The canal connects the Northland and the South of the Yangtze River. Although the Black Shark Gang is in the Northland, it has a large range of activities.
If we were to encircle and suppress the Black Shark Gang, we would need to send a large number of troops, not just these dozens of people.
"It doesn't matter, Sang Kou doesn't dare to come in a short time, not to mention that General Wang is guarding here. If we can solve the Black Shark Gang, it will be a great achievement. In recent years, if I hadn't been able to get away, I
I have long wanted to destroy them." Qing Gong said.
"In that case, let me continue to be a bait. It just so happens that my family also wants to expand the bank, and I am also planning to go to Taicheng next month." Bai Yan suggested.
Since Qing Gong is determined, he should contribute.
Anyway, the two sides have become enemies. It would be better if they could be eliminated in one fell swoop.
"No, you can't take any more risks." Qing Gong refused without even thinking.
"As long as the plan is right, it is not an adventure. Lord Marquis, how about I plan it myself this time? After killing all the Black Shark Gang, do you think His Majesty will promote my title?" Bai Yan asked with a smile.
"Bai Yan, don't look down on these gangs, they are more terrifying than bandits." Qing Gong glared at Bai Yan.
"Of course I know, isn't it the underworld? Master Hou, even if you don't let me be a bait, I will go to Taicheng and walk through the canal. Isn't the Marquis afraid that I will rob him of his merits?" Bai Bai
Yan said jokingly.
Qing Gong was furious and really wanted to slap Bai Yan. He knew that Bai Yan said this to force him to agree.
But he really didn't want Bai Yan to take any more risks.
If one of his men dies, he will feel sad.
But these people are warriors, and it is normal for them to die in battle.
But Bai Yan was different, he was pulled into the vortex by himself.
"Bai Yan, don't forget, you still have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders." Qing Gong said through gritted teeth.
"So I won't die, Mr. Marquis, you won't take me for a fool, right? I live well, so I won't die. This time, I will invite some strong people to protect me. In fact, today, I will
Even if we bring the guards, we won't be in such a mess." Bai Yan said.
As soon as these words came out, some of the sergeants turned red and felt embarrassed.
Bai Yan was mocking them, but he was unable to refute.
They had twice as many enemies, but almost killed Bai Yan. It was indeed their fault.
As Bai Yan said, if he really brought guards, then the last assassin would definitely have no chance.
