Chapter 575: Sniping

Looking at the column of words on the note, Wu Zhongyuan's heart suddenly sank, in order to prevent everyone in the field from noticing the abnormality and affecting the ongoing five-element test, he forcibly restrained himself from standing up from his seat.

"What do you think?" Wu Zhongyuan looked ahead.

Wu Di took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and said after a moment of silence, "There are many strange things about this matter. ”

Say. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"This is the news that the Xiong Clan originally planted in Lianshan," Wu Di said, "These people can't get close to the palace, unless Prince Jiang is attacked in public, they can't get such important news." ”

Wu Di paused slightly at this point, and Wu Zhongyuan stretched his brows, striving for a natural expression, "Go on." ”

Wu Di said, "The cloth strip says that he was assassinated, and the word "death" indicates that the details of the news sent back confirm that Prince Jiang has died, but the assassin assassinates, unless the head is cut off, it will be a heavy blow to Prince Jiang, and even the mountain people will take him to a safe place to help, and the details are nothing more than to determine that Prince Jiang has been assassinated." ”

Hearing Wu Di's words, Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly, what Wu Di said is indeed reasonable, this matter is indeed strange, the word assassination shows that the assassin is not fighting with Jiang Zheng with great fanfare, but taking advantage of Jiang Zheng's carelessness and secretly attacking, since it is a secret sneak attack, it is unlikely to cut off the head, at best, it is a knife or a sword, and the bear clan of Lianshan City dare to assert that Jiang Zheng is dead.

Wu Di said again, "Prince Jiang has no motive for rebellion, and I don't feel that this matter is a conspiracy." ”

"Could it be a foreigner?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a low voice.

"I don't know. Wu Di shook his head.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan turn his head to look west, Wu Di hurriedly said, "For the sake of everything, it is not appropriate for the saint to leave Youxiong, but you can send someone to Lianshan to determine the cause of the matter." ”

Wu Zhongyuan thought for a while, nodded in agreement, "Let Wu Junyue and Jiang Dahua rush to Lianshan immediately, and you and Li Wanzi immediately rush to Jiuli, inform Prince Li of this, and let him take precautions." ”

Wu Di nodded yes and turned around to go.

"Let Jiang Dahua bring Jiang Nan," Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice, "bring weapons." ”

Wu Di turned around and nodded, walked down slowly, called Wu Junyue and the others to take a stand, explained the change, and then passed on the will.

Hearing Wu Di's words, Wu Junyue and the others frowned slightly, while Jiang Dahua's face changed greatly, and after asking the details, the four of them immediately went their separate ways, summoning the royal mounts everywhere, flying low and circling, each going east and west.

Jiang Nan went directly to the back mountain from the harem, and everyone in the field knew that the four of them left suddenly, but they didn't know that they had already left Youxiong.

Wang Xinran walked over from behind and took the rice porridge that Wu Zhongyuan had put aside, "What's wrong?"

"The patriarch of the Niu clan was assassinated. Wu Zhongyuan said.

Wang Xinran was surprised, "How could such a thing happen at this time? You have to be careful, you can't mess up." ”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, he was also worried that this move was a ploy by the enemy to divert the tiger from the mountain.

Wang Xinran didn't say anything more, and took away the bowl of rice porridge, such a big change happened, Wu Zhongyuan was naturally in no mood to eat.

Because he doesn't know what happened to the Niu clan, Wu Zhongyuan can't help but speculate, such as sitting on pins and needles, if the news is correct, Jiang Zheng is really dead, and the real motive of the Niu clan and the bird clan joining forces to attack Youxiong is nowhere to be explored, you must know that it was Jiang Zheng and Li Tai's father who led the army back then, Li Tai's father, who was his grandfather, has passed away, and only Jiang Zheng himself is left in the inside.

From this point of view, it is likely that Jiang Zheng was assassinated by the other five daos, in order to extinguish the mouth.

But after thinking about it again, it's not right, if the five realms have the intention to extinguish their mouths, they can do it in advance, and there is no need to pick a bear at the critical juncture when the warriors are conducting the five elements test, will this matter hide a deeper conspiracy.

If he learned of this and immediately rushed to Lianshan, would Wudao take the opportunity to attack Youxiong?

If you think about it carefully, this possibility is not very likely, because at this time, there are not only high-level warriors from the Bear Clan's headquarters, but also high-level warriors from the Ox Clan and the Bird Clan, even if he leaves, Youxiong still has the ability to resist and defend.

Since he is not diverting the tiger from the mountain, will he set up an ambush in Lianshan and wait for him to fall into the net?

However, after thinking about it, I feel that this possibility is also very small, if it is just to calculate him, there is no need for the other party to assassinate Jiang Zheng, there are many ways to make him relax his vigilance, and it is easier for the other party to succeed.

Wu Zhongyuan was in doubt, worry and restlessness all afternoon, even the mountain city was more than 2,000 miles away from Youxiongzu, and Wu Junyue and Jiang Dahua had to send back the news at the fastest time when they entered the shift.

When it was time to enter the shift, Wu Di and Li Wanzi came back first, and everything was as usual in Jiuli City, without any abnormal circumstances.

After waiting for another half an hour, Wu Junyue returned.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan, Wu Zhongyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was getting late at this time, although the test was still continuing, there was no need for him to sit on the chair all the time, and when Wu Junyue approached, he got up and walked towards the palace, "What's the matter?"

"Prince Jiang was plotted and died. Wu Junyue said.

"What kind of person is the murderer, has he ever been caught?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Wu Junyue shook her head, "No one has ever seen the person who carried out the assassination, this person cast a hidden weapon from a distance, and Prince Jiang was seriously injured on the spot by the secret weapon that pierced through the Yin Tang Qiang. ”

"Penetrating?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned and stopped, Qiangjian is an acupuncture point in the back of the head, the human skull is extremely hard, and it is impossible for ordinary secret weapons to penetrate the human head.

"Yes. Wu Junyue nodded slowly, then raised her finger and pointed, "The secret weapon entered from the Yin Hall, penetrated through the self-improvement, and was embedded in the stone wall of the palace wall. ”

"Where is the secret weapon now?" Wu Zhongyuan asked eagerly.

"I brought it back," Wu Junyue lowered her hand to untie her waist bag, stretched it open, and reached out to take out a gray thing from it.

Seeing this, Wu Zhongyuan gasped, what Wu Junyue was holding in his hand turned out to be a deformed warhead, the color of this warhead had been worn off by rifling, it was gray, and the warhead itself had been seriously deformed.

Wu Zhongyuan was not an expert in this area, so he took the warhead and turned around and walked to the palace gate, "You come here." ”

He spoke in modern language, and Wang Xinran naturally knew that he was calling her, so he stepped forward and raised his hand to salute the two.

"What is this?" Wu Zhongyuan handed the warhead to Wang Xinran.

Wang Xinran stretched out his hand to take it, frowned at the brazier, and returned the warhead to Wu Zhongyuan after looking at it carefully, with an unusually solemn expression on his face, "This is a 10.36 caliber sniper rifle cartridge, which is equipped with an M200 sniper rifle." ”

"Are they coming?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a deep voice.

Wang Xinran nodded slowly.

Wu Zhongyuan took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions, he had discussed this matter with Wang Xinran before, according to Wang Xinran, foreign hostile forces are looking for the kind of black meteorite that can create a space-time formation in modern times, and it turns out that they have indeed found it, not only found it, but also copied the teleportation formation and sent people back.

"You don't have to worry too much, the spirit stones they collect can only teleport back to one person at most. Wang Xinran whispered.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer, like this kind of opponent, one can already kill someone, where to use the second?

Because Wu Zhongyuan and Wang Xinran used modern language when they talked, Wu Junyue glanced at Wang Xinran suspiciously, and seeing that the two were no longer talking, Wu Junyue said again, "Holy Lord, according to his subordinates, the perpetrator of the murderer is still hiding near Lianshan at this time and has never left. ”

"Why do you say this?" Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head.

Wu Junyue said, "Prince Jiang was assassinated at the right time, and another guard was assassinated from outside the palace at the right time, and just like Prince Jiang, he was pierced through the skull with a hidden weapon. ”

"Is it a guard who died?" Wu Zhongyuan asked suspiciously.

Wu Junyue nodded, "It's just an ordinary guard, exactly two hours after Prince Jiang's assassination." ”

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer, at this time people use twelve hours, the timing habit is odd timing, taking the sub-hour as an example, that is, twenty-three o'clock to one o'clock in the morning, noon is eleven o'clock in the morning to one o'clock in the afternoon, and the time of the hour and the time of the day refer to ten o'clock in the morning and two o'clock in the afternoon respectively, this kind of timing habit is only modern people, especially Westerners, more accustomed to using even number timing.

Wu Junyue looked at Wu Zhongyuan with inquiring eyes, Wu Zhongyuan glanced at her, and then tilted his head to look at Wang Xinran.

Wang Xinran looked directly at Wu Zhongyuan, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, "Send me over......"
