These assassins should have been professionally trained. Whether it is the speed of their attacks or their cooperation, they all have a tacit understanding. If this continues, Xiang Yu will undoubtedly die.
"Xiang Yu, today is your day of death, go to hell." An assassin sneered and waved the short blade in his hand. Xiang Yu suddenly moved backwards, and the sharp short blade passed against Xiang Yu's neck.
laugh!
The dull sound of a sharp weapon sounded, and Xiang Yu grunted. A short blade was pierced into his shoulder. Although he was able to dodge one person, he could not dodge the attacks of several people next to him.
"Is it possible that God is going to kill me, Xiang Yu?" Xiang Yu roared in grief and anger. Even though he was braver than ordinary people, he only led 500 people when he was ambushed last time, and fought with more than 2,000 Qin troops. All the people he brought died.
, he killed thousands of people in one breath, suffered dozens of stab wounds on his body, and was severely exhausted.
Otherwise, how could several assassins dare to assassinate him?
Seeing that Xiang Yu was at the end of his strength, an assassin aimed the short blade at Xiang Yu's chest and stabbed it hard. Just when the assassin thought he had succeeded and Xiang Yu felt that he was certain to die.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, there was a sound of piercing the air nearby, and a chopstick was seen flying quickly, and instantly pierced the assassin's hand holding a short blade, directly piercing it, and blood flowed out.
The assassin grunted and took out the short blade in his hand, falling to the ground. The other assassins around him were shocked and looked in all directions warily.
"kill him"
At this moment, in order to avoid complications, no suspicious person was found, so they wanted to solve it quickly. After all, their mission was to assassinate Xiang Yu, and they were about to succeed, so failure was absolutely not allowed.
"Swish swish"
Three more chopsticks flew over, piercing each of the three hands holding the short blades. Blood immediately flowed out. The three of them felt that their hands had no strength, and the short blades fell to the ground.
"Boy, it was you who did it." The lead assassin discovered that it was chopsticks that penetrated his men, so he looked behind him and saw a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old on the second floor of the restaurant, waving to him.
"Did you assassinate Chen Sheng?" Xu Ran asked.
The leading assassin did not speak, but the expression on his face was enough to show that they were the ones who killed Chen Sheng.
"Fuck you, uncle, why did you kill Chen Sheng?" Xu Ran suddenly cursed, and then threw down a chopstick. An assassin's eyebrow was pierced and he died immediately.
"If you don't kill Chen Sheng, Liu Bang won't run away."
"Do you know that Liu Bang and I have a grudge?"
"He took Chen Sheng's remaining soldiers and ran away to hide somewhere. How could I kill him?"
"Tell me, is this your fault? So you all deserve to die."
Every time Xu Ran said a word, he threw a chopstick and pierced the forehead of an assassin. Two people originally wanted to escape, but their speed was not as fast as the high-speed flying chopsticks, and they were pierced through the back of the head.
Now only the assassin leader was left standing there. Originally, he was very calm when he saw that the person who intervened was a half-year-old boy.
But soon, every time this young man said a word, one of his men died. The assassin leader's heart was filled with fear, and his legs were trembling.
As an assassin, the people he assassinates are generals who command tens of thousands of people, as well as princes, etc. Even if he assassinates a certain leader in the military camp, the assassin leader is not afraid.
But now, he felt scared.
Because the young man in front of him put too much pressure on him.
"Okay, you can go die." Xu Ran threw out a chopstick and shot it at the assassin leader with lightning speed. The next second, the assassin leader fell to the ground with the chopstick between his eyebrows.
On the street below, Xiang Yu was the only one still standing. At this moment, Xiang Yu was also stunned at the scene in front of him. A group of assassins were shot through the head with chopsticks by a young man and died.
This was the first time he saw such a way of death.
Xu Ran jumped directly in front of Xiang Yu from the second floor, stared at him for a while, and said: "Xiang Yu, you can't die."
"I can't die for the time being." Xiang Yu hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your help. If you hadn't helped me, I would have been very angry on the spot."
After a pause, Xiang Yu asked curiously: "By the way, how did you know my name is Xiang Yu?"
Xu Ran rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't you yell just now that Xiang Yu is going to be killed?"
Xiang Yu: "...".
"Haha" Xiang Yu smiled awkwardly.
"By the way, we seem to have met before. You seem to be talking about the Overlord of Western Chu, right?" Xiang Yu said suddenly. He also looked at Xu Ran for a long time before saying this.
When he rescued his uncle last time, a man and a woman followed him on horseback. After rescuing his uncle, he came over and asked the other party why he was following him, but the other party inexplicably said he was looking at the Overlord of Western Chu.
"Not bad" Xu Ran nodded.
Xiang Yu said suspiciously: "You seem to be much younger than last time."
Xu Ran was silent.
After a while, Xiang Yu asked: "May I ask your name? You saved my life, Xiang Yu, and I, Xiang Yu, must repay your life-saving grace."
"Just call me Xu Ran," Xu Ran said, standing with his hands behind his hands. Then he heard the sound of horse hooves, turned his head, and saw a group of people riding towards him.
"King Xiang will atone for his sins, and the end will come later." The leader stood up, dismounted, and then knelt on the ground.
Everyone behind him also dismounted.
"King Xiang, you can no longer recuperate in Wu County. The prefect ordered us to take you back to Kuaiji County," the leader said.
"Xiang Yu is seriously injured. It's not advisable to drive on a bumpy road. It's better to stay in Wu County to recuperate." At this time, Xu Ran interjected lightly.
"Who are you..." The leader looked at Xu Ran and asked, his tone a little wary.
"Lieutenant Zhang, this little brother just saved my life." Xiang Yu said to the leader: "I am recovering from my injuries in Wu County. You can go back and tell your uncle and ask him to send 2,000 men and horses to Wu County."
"This..." The leader hesitated.
"Why, my words don't work anymore?" Xiang Yu's face suddenly sank.
The leader didn't say anything in the end, and left the people he brought behind while he went back to Kuaiji County for a trip.
In the following time, Xu Ran and Xiang Yu became almost familiar and became brothers. At night, a certain room with an oil lamp was brightly lit.
The table is full of delicacies.
"Come, dear brother, have a drink," Xiang Yu said proudly after receiving two bowls of wine.
Xu Ran rolled his eyes and said: 'I told you, I'm older than you, you should call me eldest brother, and I'll call you virtuous brother.'
Naturally, Xu Ran would not recognize Xiang Yu as his eldest brother. He is older than Xiang Yu now.
Xiang Yu was a little depressed. He didn't believe it anyway. The person in front of him was older than him. He finally thought of a compromise. He raised the wine in his hand and said: "Whoever finishes this bowl of wine first among us will be the eldest brother."
