These people who fired arrows to sneak attack were led and instructed by Ning Jingzhou.

At night, the three of them finished summing up, and the second uncle left first, and he stayed behind to discuss with his father, who was the governor of Wuzhou, and so decided on such a plan.

According to their original plan, they set fire to the inn first, and then took advantage of the chaos to hijack Tranquility in the name of saving people.

The father and son additionally conspired, and then came to a praying mantis to catch cicadas, and Huang Que was behind, taking advantage of the chaos of their rescue, he shot her with cold arrows.

They did this, completely different from the second uncle's idea, so they had to act behind his back.

In order to succeed in this conspiracy, Ning Jingzhou not only brought all the cronies who were specially protecting his father in the family, but also used the crossbow that his father had painstakingly obtained from the army.

This is absolutely contraband, and even ordinary Qing soldiers are not qualified to equip it. This crossbow was more powerful and popular than most so-called thermal weapons of the time.

It was this kind of crossbow that shot and injured his second uncle. To be more on the safe side, he also smeared the poison he had prepared on the arrows.

This was bought by him at a high price from the remote mountainous areas of Yunnan and Guizhou. Although it is not to seal the throat with blood, there is no cure. Just a little bit of scratching, just wait to die.

Such vicious interlocking shows that the son is more scheming than his father, and his talent is also slightly revealed.

Because of this, he was also regarded by his father and second uncle as the most qualified successor to the second house. After all, he would not use such viciousness against his father and uncle and other family members.

When he saw that the fatal arrow shot at his cousin was blocked by the second uncle, he couldn't help complaining in his heart about the bad things done to the second uncle, and when the arrow did not hit the target, but shot through the second uncle's arm, he was also surprised.

He knew very well in his heart that not to mention such a serious injury, even if it was a gentle scratch of the skin, it was also an irreparable fatal injury. If the second uncle died, not only would their tribe be greatly damaged, but they would also have no way to explain to their father and grandfather in the first place.

He was stunned for a moment, and did not urge his subordinates to continue to step up the release of arrows. The subordinates were also taken aback when they saw that they had shot the important leader of the family, and the work in their hands slowed down unconsciously, which also gave Peter a sigh of relief.

He hurriedly gave some emergency treatment to the injured second uncle, and temporarily stopped the gushing heavy bleeding.

At this time, the four King Kongs all surrounded him, desperately trying to block the arrows that continued to fly.

Ningzhou is thinking about whether to give up this operation and give some chance to rescue the second uncle, or simply do nothing, concentrate the crossbow again, and wipe out the group of people, including the second uncle and cousin, anyway, the possibility of the second uncle being saved is very small.

The opportunity is rare, after this village, there will be no such shop! The trouble caused by the death of the second uncle will be discussed later.

He made up his mind and was about to wave his hand and shout an order, when he suddenly heard the sound of "plop" and "plop" behind him.

He looked back and saw a figure coming like the wind. The men who tried to stop the black shadow had not yet touched it, and flew out in both directions like the wind blowing the grass.

Before he could decide whether to go to meet the enemy or retreat from the battle, the man had approached and grabbed him by the neck.

"Don't move!" shouted Mai Ke.

Although this guy is scheming, he is a bit of a tough guy at this time. He ignored the fact that his head was being restrained, and he yelled at the others with his neck in his neck: "......Leave me alone!" Before he finished speaking, he was pointed at the dumb hole by Mai Ke, depriving him of the right to speak.

Quickly grasping the key is a basic skill necessary for special forces. As the captain, Mai Ke knows this truth very well, and he uses it quite skillfully.

So after he left Peter, he came behind the gang, and soon set his sights on this young man who was protected by everyone.

From Jing Rui's introduction before, he also knew that the principal of the Ning family here in Wuzhou mainly relied on the second uncle and his eldest son. Since the second uncle was injured over there, most of this person is another person. So he rushed over and grabbed him by surprise.

Everyone saw that the eldest prince with good martial arts was captured alive in the blink of an eye, so they stopped, and no one dared to mess around.

A middle-aged man who looked like a deputy ran over empty-handed from the place where the crossbow was placed not far to the left, and bowed his hand to Mai Ke, "I have something to say! What do you want?"

If you are willing to compromise, it will be easy to do. Mai Ke first ordered them all to put down their bows and arrows and gather here.

After the danger was removed, Mai Ke asked the deputy who cooperated well: "Who is this person and why did he attack us?"

Knowing that he couldn't hide it, even if he didn't say it now, he wouldn't be able to contain the fire when he met the people at the inn for a while, and the deputy truthfully told Mai Ke the identity of the young man's eldest son.

Everything they do here today is to obey his orders. He didn't know how much it was, so he could only ask the eldest son.

Specifically, he himself is the captain of the family guard under the direct leadership of the boss. Very few people know about their deposits. The eldest prince was not their direct leader, but this time he was ordered to listen to him.

Judging that what he said was true, Mai Ke unraveled the dumb hole of the eldest son, who couldn't speak, but had been trying to show that he was very anxious and angry with his expression, and said to him, it's your turn now, tell me why you killed your second uncle and cousin?

Ning Jingzhou regained the right to speak, and was about to shout and scold, but when he heard Mai Ke's words, he suddenly became dumbfounded. When am I going to kill my second uncle!

But he really couldn't pick himself out about it. He can't say that he wants to kill his cousin and kill his second uncle by mistake, right?

Although that's just the way it is. I'm afraid the listener will have to accept half of it and reject the other half: killing my cousin is true, and killing my second uncle is probably even more true.

This is the result of Mai Ke's use of psychological tactics, seeing that this guy is also a cunning person, he gave him a trap to get into.

As a result, this simple little ploy silenced the eldest son, who was usually eloquent. Since it was inappropriate to say anything, he had to take the initiative to cancel his right to speak, and silence was golden.

Mai Ke didn't take any more time to let him speak, and took him back to the inn directly. The others, led by the deputy, had to follow.

Thinking of the injured second uncle, Mai Ke quickened his pace. Even the eldest prince didn't need to urge, and followed closely.

When the two groups of people met, they didn't even bother to say hello, because at this time, the second uncle had already seen that he couldn't do it.

Peter's emergency measures helped him to stop the bleeding from dying from blood loss, but they had no therapeutic effect on the poisoning.

Therefore, during this period, the toxin quickly eroded the vital functions of the injured person, and it was impossible to stand it out.

Mai Ke handed over the captives to the custody of the Four Great King Kongs, they were the only ones who had nothing to do with the Ning family here, turned around and came to the seriously injured and dying second uncle, lifted his eyelids to look, and shook his head.

Everyone who was holding their breath and watching sighed in disappointment. The eldest son even broke free from the hands of the four great King Kongs, pounced, knelt down in front of the second uncle, and cried bitterly, "Second uncle, the little nephew is sorry for you......"

At this time, Mai Ke walked to his equipment bag, took out a red box from it, returned to the second uncle, and said to the crying unfilial nephew, "You get out of the way first, the person is not dead yet, don't cry in a hurry!"

The way he shook his head just now was to sigh at the deceit of people's hearts, how could he kill each other like this? However, he was not sure in his heart whether he could cure his second uncle.

The box he took out just now contained emergency medicine specially prepared by special forces, which was life-saving at a critical moment. In other words, as long as there is still a breath, you can save your life.

However, I don't know if it is effective in removing this unknown poison.

He opened the locket, picked up one of them, broke the second uncle's lips, and smeared the pill into it. Everyone stared at it with good eyes, even the eldest prince was honest, and secretly hoped that the second uncle could escape from the ghost gate.

This special medicine is indeed extraordinary, not only melts in the mouth, but also works extremely quickly.

I only heard a burst of intestinal sounds coming from the second uncle's belly, and his face began to change from the original black and gray to yellow and white.

At the same time, streams of thick black liquid oozed from his body, emitting a foul stench. The crowd took a few steps back, trying to escape the stench.

Only the eldest prince and Mai Ke stood still. The former is because of the great joy after experiencing great mourning, and he didn't even feel the smell, and the latter is because after confirming that this special medicine is effective for detoxification, he intends to further observe it closely.

After a short time, Mai Ke affirmed to everyone that the second uncle was out of the death threat, and told everyone to rest assured.

This ending was unexpected by everyone. In particular, Mai Ke almost single-handedly turned the tide, not only thwarting the eldest prince who attacked secretly, but also pulling back the second uncle who had already signed up in the Hades Palace from halfway. From everyone's eyes of respect and worship for Mai Ke, it can be seen that he has won the inner support of everyone.

Even the eldest prince is grateful, although he thinks that everything is bad at the hands of this guy. Anyway, he didn't have to face the consequences of his second uncle's death, and he was greatly relieved in his heart, and he didn't look at Mai Ke so hateful.

You don't have to worry about the aftermath, just leave it to the four King Kong overseers, and the leader of the family guard will implement it.

Taking advantage of this free time, Peter also informed Maike of how he had noticed someone setting a fire in the morning and stopped it.

He specifically mentioned two things. One was the other arsonists who were knocked to the ground by him, and none of them were caught, and the time they saved them was gone.

The other was that the liquid he smelled of gasoline was the same natural resource as modern gasoline, which the locals called fire oil.

The former Mai Ke doesn't care, he doesn't need to ask, he also knows that it is related to the sneak attack of the eldest prince, and he can know the truth by asking him in the future.

He paid attention to the second thing, gasoline is the basic energy source of modern technology and industrial production, and if it is readily available, it can save a lot of money in the future.

At this time, the second uncle walked over with the support of two people, although he was still weak, he could barely walk.

His complexion had also returned to normal. When he came to Mai Ke, he was about to bow to the ground, but Mai Ke grabbed him and didn't let him kowtow.

He said that he had to kneel down for everything, saying that the grace of saving his life was like recreation, and it was impossible to say that he would not kowtow to thank the great grace. As for Mai Ke, he is also resolutely not accepted.

Kidding, we all worship the Most High in Heaven, and nothing else. How can it be possible to accept others as the object of their prostration? In the future, when there is a chance, we must explain this matter to him clearly.

To put it mildly, in the end, let Ning Jingzhou give Mai Ke a hand salute on behalf of the second uncle.

At this time, Director Ning and one of the four King Kongs who stayed on the ship hurried over. For they saw that the scheduled time for sailing had come, but the man had not returned, so they sent men to look for them.

When I arrived at the Ning family's compound, I met the supervisor, so I came here together.
