Chapter 5: Sneak Attack
Early the next morning, Yichen told SΓΉ Huo Ning that he was going to separate from the convoy.
Although Huo Ning was not very relieved, he reluctantly agreed when he saw Tian Tao's simple and steady appearance, and his cultivation was much higher than his own.
Huo Ning told SΓΉ Yichen that the convoy would stay in Tianyun City for about a month and live at the Yuelai Inn in the east of the city.
After bidding farewell to Huo Ning, Tian Tao and Yichen rode a horse, and Lin Lei rode another horse, and the day was about to reach Baili Forest.
The so-called hundred-mile forest refers to a straight line through this forest for a hundred miles.
In fact, the forest area is huge, and the depths are connected to the Tianluo Mountains, so ordinary people dare not enter the depths of the forest.
The three of them took up residence at an inn at the edge of the forest, and the two horses were deposited at the inn, where they prepared to walk into the forest to-morrow.
At dinner time, the three of them called for some wine and food, sat at the table by the window and chatted while eating, Tian Tao briefly introduced the situation of his family to Yichen. More and faster chapters are here.
The Tian family has an auction house in the capital, which mainly auctions some low-grade exercises, weapons, medicinal materials, magic cores, etc., which is a small auction house.
There are two large auction houses in the capital, eight medium-sized ones, and nearly 100 small ones.
Large auction houses must have at least three commanders and five generals, medium-sized auction houses must have one commander and three generals, and small auction houses only need to have generals.
Usually high-end items are rarely auctioned by small auction houses, and in order to make a name for themselves in this industry, it must be among the mid-sized ones.
After several generations of hard work, Tianjia Auction House has finally developed its scale to close to that of a medium-sized auction house, but it is still not qualified to apply.
Because there was still a lack of a general-level master in charge, an elder could have been invited from the outside, but due to the sudden intervention of the Xiao family, all the masters who were interested in applying for elders outside avoided it.
The Xiao family is the fourth largest family in the capital, and their strength is very strong.
The Xiao family let out a statement: In order to help the Tian family auction house advance smoothly, the Xiao family is willing to send a general-level master to sit in the town.
There are two conditions, first of all, marriage: that is, the seventh young master of the Xiao family is willing to marry Tian Qing, the niece of the head of the Tian family, and be the wife of the sixth aunt.
Secondly, mutual benefit: Tianjia Auction House is willing to withdraw 20% of the profits and hand it over to the Xiao family.
Tian Qing is Tian Tao's own sister, due to the death of her parents at an early age, the brother and sister have been dependent on each other for many years. More and faster chapters are here.
Although Tian Tao has a family, he still loves his sister. When you hear the news, you naturally won't agree.
However, Tian Guiyin doesn't think so, he is Tian Tao's third uncle and the head of the family.
On the surface, he couldn't bear to push Tian Qing into the fire pit, and secretly he was ready to sacrifice Tian Qing.
So he pretended to give Tian Tao half a year, and let Tian Tao strive to break through to the general level, so that he would not rely on external forces.
In fact, he bought fourth-grade pills everywhere, and the family was not allowed to pay Tian Tao any expenses.
Tian Tao knew that he had been stagnant at the Battle Governor level for many years, and it would be impossible to break through without borrowing the pill for half a year.
He spent a lot of time working for the auction house all these years, and he never received a salary, so he never cared.
And Tian Qing has been placed under house arrest and is not allowed to leave the family.
In desperation, Tian Tao took the risk to take over the task of the fourth-order demon core......
The three of them sighed while eating, Yichen despised Tian Guiyin at the same time, but also deeply felt that Tian Tao was a good man.
At this moment, four big men in yellow walked in at the door, with a black eagle head pattern pinned to their chests.
"Xiao Er, serve the food quickly, pick more good ones. First serve two pots of wine, Lao Tzu is hungry. Prepare three more upper rooms and clean them. β
One of them shouted all the way to an empty table, took off the large knife from his back and threw it on the table.
The other three also took their weapons and threw them on the table, and then sat together.
The wine arrived quickly, along with a few plates of peanuts and other side dishes. More and faster chapters are here. The four big men drank wine and ate side dishes, and at the same time they talked as if no one was around.
"Black Friday, what do you say happened to the boss this time? I didn't eat the fat of the Zhao family, but I came here to get some broken tiles. It's so fucking unworthy!" is still the one who yelled earlier.
"Speak softly, if Big Black Eagle knows that you are talking about him behind your back, you will wait to be beaten. β
The thin and tall Black Five pulled out his voice: "This time it was arranged by Master Chen, and the news provided by Master Chen's godson Liu Gongzi." This batch of goods is worth 50,000 crystal coins, and it is not a problem to make a move, and Master Chen is only angry for Liu Gongzi, and he does not plan to share it. β
"With such a good thing, Master Chen is very treacherous, can he do it for nothing?"
"You're stupid. In order to deal with the Yi family, the Liu family wants to choose themselves cleanly, so they will naturally give benefits to Master Chen. And Master Chen stayed out of the matter without showing any traces, this is the style of the old fox. Black Friday explained.
"The Yijia convoy is carrying porcelain, I'm afraid of touching it, I walk slowly, it will take at least three or four days to arrive, but why does the boss arrive in the middle of the night?"
Broken voice belongs to the kind of person who has a intestine to the end, and he doesn't speak through the brain, just a strong question.
"Forty people were dispatched this time, and with us and my eldest brother, there were forty-five people. The eldest brother came first because he was about to break through and wanted to calm down and practice. The eldest brother will soon be a general-level master, and he can do even bigger things in the future. β
Black Five looked around, lowered his voice and said:
"The captain of the Yi family's escort team is only the fifth rank of the battle superintendent, and the rest are all at the war division level, and the four of us can kill half of them, and we don't need to do it at all. More and faster chapters are here. β
Downstairs at the inn, in the guest rooms.
"Brother, don't be impulsive. Tian Tao was persuading Yichen.
Hearing the conversation between Black Friday and them just now, Yichen was furious, and he was out of control at that time, but fortunately, Tian Tao and Lin Lei dragged him into the room.
"Big brother, don't stop me. Although my cultivation is very low, I will never allow anyone to do anything to harm the Yi family. Yichen was still very impulsive and shouted: "It's a big deal that they kill me first, otherwise they won't want to rob my Yijia of goods." β
"Brother, you're still young, and impulsiveness can make things worse. These four people are just exploring the way, even if they are killed now, Black Hawk will still come, in that case, it will be a surprise to the snake, not only will it not help, but it will give Black Hawk some precautions. "Tian Tao has rich experience in the rivers and lakes and is calm in trouble.
"So, before they found out, we sent one of them out to report the news. Lin Lei thought of a way: "The other two are in ambush, and when the black eagle comes, see if they can sneak attack." β
"Okay, Lin Lei will report the news and leave immediately. First go to the front inn to rent a horse and get around here. The two of us are waiting to see if we can do something before they arrive. "Tian Tao is worthy of the old rivers and lakes, and he is calm in trouble.
Tian Tao handed Yichen a dagger and told Yichen to prepare to act at the opportunity.
In the middle of the night, opposite Yichen's room. Black Friday opened the door and welcomed their eldest brother, Black Hawk.
Black Eagle was tall and burly, with a large scar on the left side of his face. The first time to update the scar from the side of the left eye down to the corner of the mouth, with a hooked nose, the whole face looks eerie.
At this moment, Black Eagle is meditating on the bed, and the four of them have their own division of labor.
Black Hawk was very cautious, he left one person in one of the three rooms, one on the left and one on the left, and the other two guarding the door. The breakthrough is imminent, and naturally no one can be disturbed.
Yichen and Tian Tao closely watched the situation on the other side, thinking about how to take action.
Tian Tao and Black Eagle are equal in force, if Yichen can lure the two people at the door, Tian Tao can sneak attack while Black Eagle is engaged in training.
An hour later, the two people at the door seemed to be a little tired, and one of them went to the corner to relieve himself, leaving only the black five people at the door.
Tian Tao slipped to the corner of the wall and took out a dagger......
A faint white light flashed, and before the man could snort, his throat was cut.
Tian Tao gently leaned the body against the wall, then turned around and walked out.
At the same time, Yichen took advantage of the cover of night to use the technique of concealment to come to Black Friday.
"ε~~" A cold light went straight to Hei Wu's chest, but after all, Hei Wu was a third-grade cultivator of the War Governor, and he already felt it when the dagger was about to stab.
Hurriedly flashed sideways, and the dagger slashed through his chest, leaving a wound half an inch deep.
This is the first time that Yichen is fighting against the enemy, although he did not succeed in a single blow, but he also gained a lot, and he was very happy.
Without waiting for Hei Wu to pull out the war knife from his back, Yichen flipped his hand and used another assassination technique, this time stabbing the opponent's throat.
Black Five was frightened, so he had to raise his head to avoid it, but unexpectedly, Yichen had a back move, and he swiped down, leaving another wound on Black Five's chest, forming a bright red cross with the wound ** fork in front.
These two moves were completed in an instant, and Rao is black five body was not weak after a hundred battles, and he was also shocked into a cold sweat, he didn't dare to risk drawing the knife again.
The pain of the wound brought him to his senses, and he waved his fists and fought with Yichen.
Black Eagle sensed the movement outside, knew something was wrong, and hurriedly collected his efforts and prepared to get up.
Suddenly, there was a "bang", the door opened, and a figure flew in, and a huge fist smashed into the face with the sound of the wind......
Black Hawk sat on the bed and hadn't gotten up yet, knowing that he couldn't avoid the punch, and he didn't have time to get lucky again, so he had to raise his arm to block hard.
"Bang-knock-" Tian Tao broke Black Hawk's arm with a punch, and still had the strength to hit his head.
"Ahh
He endured the severe pain and rolled down to the bed, and as soon as he stood up, he was kicked in the chest again, and his whole body flew out of the door.
"Poof-" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Black Hawk was seriously injured.
Tian Tao chased him out and took the Black Eagle, and the Black Eagle was no longer able to fight.
Seeing that he was about to die on the spot, he saw a person rushing out of each room on both sides of the room to intercept Tian Tao in front of the black eagle.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Black Five, who was fighting with Yichen, hurriedly made a move, and when Yichen responded, he came to Black Hawk's side in a flash, and fled outside the inn with Black Hawk on his back.
Yichen looked at their fleeing backs, and knew that even if they caught up, they couldn't do anything, so he reflexively joined Tian Tao's battle formation.
These two Black Eagle subordinates are all the third rank of the War Governor, and they have fallen into disadvantage when they fight against Tian Tao of the ninth rank of the War Governor.
One of them had just narrowly avoided Tian Tao's sharp blow, and his body was unstable. Yichen caught up, stabbed the dagger in the center of the fossa, changed hands and slashed it, and it was finished immediately.
Here, Tian Tao also twisted his opponent's neck, and the battle ended.
Tian Tao Yichen won a complete victory, killing three people, injuring one enemy, and seizing three storage rings, more than 1,000 crystal coins and more than a dozen first- and second-order magic cores.
The two took advantage of the fact that the inn was not in chaos, and hurriedly led their horses away.
