Chapter 12: Assassination Recourse (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
The timing of the sneak attack was very good.
It was Bao Shihu who spoke back to Shen Lian, and Shen Lian was attracted to attention.
The dart arrows shot were also fast and accurate, and they went straight to Shen Lian's neck.
But I never expected it!
Bao Shihu actually has such a fast knife!
Although Shen Lian was frightened, he did not lose his temper. He has a 'Deadly Dodge Card', and even if he can't dodge, there is no mortal danger.
But Shen Lufu was really frightened and collapsed on the spot.
Bao Shihu raised his eyebrows, held the kitchen knife and chased out of the house.
Shen Lian hurriedly followed.
The outside of the house was still deserted, with green trees surrounding the embankment, and the pedestrians on the road at the far end were sparse, and it was impossible to see who was the culprit of the sneak attack.
Bao Shihu chased out of the distance, looked around, and then returned with a kitchen knife.
"My lord, the thief may have fled. ”
Shen Lian didn't respond to this sentence, but looked at the kitchen knife in Bao Shihu's hand with interest.
It was a black knife with a dark glow, not wide, but the edge was like frost. Just by looking at it twice, I felt cold and numb.
Bao Shihu smiled, his fingers played with flowers, and the kitchen knife flew and was inserted into the back of his waist.
"The ancestral old kitchen knife is also a family item for villains to eat. ”
"Master Bao is so skilled, much stronger than a martial artist who walks the rivers and lakes!" Shen Lian praised.
"It's just familiar. When the villain used to chop vegetables, he would often chop some flies and insects. I'm used to it for a while, and I can't be praised by adults!"
can chop flies with a kitchen knife, this is not an ordinary person......
Shen Lian was happy in his heart, it was naturally a good thing that he had outstanding talents under his command.
The two returned to the house, and Shen Lufu was still apprehensive when he stood by the door.
"Fu Bo, take Master Bao to change into the official uniform of the Criminal Division. Shen Lian commanded.
When Bao Shihu heard this, he hurriedly excused himself:
"Lord Shen, the villain is just a rude cook, he can't be on the stage, how can he wear the official uniform of the yamen......"
"If you do things in my private prison, that is the official of the Yamen, and I will never wronged you! I say you can do it, you can do it!" Shen Lian smiled.
"Bao Shihu's loyalty is increased by 50%, and his current loyalty is 50%;"
"The adults are gracious and recreated, and the villains are grateful!"
Bao Shihu bowed down and saluted solemnly, obviously greatly moved.
The status of the cook is a lowly job, and there is also the punishment of murder and exile.
Shen Lian's arrangement directly changed Bao Shihu from a lowly position to a public position, which is indeed a reinvention of Entong.
Fu Bo breathed a sigh of relief before leaving with Bao Shihu.
Shen Lian picked up the fragments of darts and arrows on the ground.
"Who the hell wanted to assassinate me?"
"Ding. ”
"Daily Mission Trigger:"
"Explanation: Pursuing the assassination;"
"Achievement: Reward 'Plunder Avatar Card*1';"
"Achievement: Reward '10 Consecutive Draws*1';"
Shen Lian got the hint, no longer hesitated, and walked quickly to the corner of the remote eaves.
Extract the item 'Plunder Avatar Card' to cover the list of Willow with the Wind.
In an instant, his appearance changed, and the power of the demon cultivation increased.
He rubbed the three fingers of his right hand, and the 'mountain mastiff' bone powder was smeared on his nose.
After identifying the special smell on the dart arrows, Shen Lian walked out of the courtyard wall.
As expected, the culprit of the sneak attack did not go far.
In the tea shed on the side of the street, about a mile away from Shen's house.
Shen Lian stared at the ordinary looking Jianghu man with calloused palms.
This person was wearing a hat, observing the Shen family's mansion from the corner of his eye, looking like he was drinking tea and resting.
Shen Lian remained silent, came to the tea shed, and also ordered tea to sit down.
After about tea time, the sneak attacker seemed to feel that it was not good to start again, paid for the tea and turned to leave.
Shen Lian threw down three copper coins and trailed behind.
After walking for several more miles, the sneak attackers made a detour and entered an inconspicuous hut.
Shen Lian rubbed his fingers, and the 'clouded leopard' bone powder overflowed and wiped it on his forehead.
Immediately, he was like a shadow, swift as the wind, close to the window of the hut.
After listening for a long time, there was some movement inside, and it seemed that the sneak attacker was muttering to himself.
After a few moments, there was a snoring sound.
"You're quite fat, do you want to sleep until night and then find a chance to do it?"
Shen Lian quietly got up and peeked through the window paper.
There was no one else in the hut, and the assailant was sleeping soundly.
Shen Lian made a decision, and entered through the wooden window.
"Who's ......"
The sneak attacker woke up instantly, and turned out two darts and arrows in his hand.
But Shen Lian's movements were too fast, and as soon as he got up, Shen Lian's right hand and five claws were already patting on his chest.
Poof, the throat of the sneak attacker was sweet, and he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
Shen Lian's five claws of his right hand had already choked the person's throat bone, and with a quick poke of his left hand, the leopard force hit the ribs fiercely.
The sneak attacker's eyes turned black with pain, and he collapsed on the bed with convulsions, and two dart arrows fell between his fingers, and he was no longer able to resist.
"Who instructed you to assassinate Shen Lian? If you tell the truth, you can live. ”
Shen Lian grabbed the man's throat bone and didn't move.
With just one shot, you can crush your neck and throat on the spot.
The sneak attacker was horrified, gasped for pain a few times, and said with difficulty:
"The master spares his life...... The little ones are on orders. Be...... It is Liu Zhutou of the Criminal Department of the Government Government...... Pay me to do something......"
The Criminal Department of Xicheng Prefecture is responsible for criminal prison trials, arrests, and espionage. There is only one person who is called Liu Zhutou, Liu Neng's distant nephew Liu Dayong, the chief catcher of the house.
"Is Liu Neng going to kill me?"
Shen Lian felt that something was wrong.
Because suppressing and framing in official business is not the same thing as assassination.
Then there must be a hidden story in this assassination incident.
"Liu Zhutou hired you to kill Shen Lian, do you have any certificates?" Shen Lian's right hand tightened.
The sneak attacker was choked to death almost on the spot, and said in horror:
"There is only one souvenir...... plus five hundred taels of silver tickets...... Concealed cabinet under the bed. The little one really did what he was told......! I beg the master to spare my life!"
Shen Lian got the result, and the leopard force shot violently.
The sneak attacker's neck was crushed and he was killed.
Leaning over to explore under the bed, Shen Lian dragged out a small dusty box.
The lock was broken, revealing several silver tickets inside, as well as an old brocade rope.
This kind of brocade rope is a special item for the yamen waist card, and Shen Lian recognized it at a glance.
When receiving a list of murderers on the rivers and lakes, it is important to pay attention to the fact that there is no basis for words, and there must be tokens.
Although they can't leave a handwritten letter, if the employer repents, they can also ask for a commission with the token.
Shen Lian put away the silver tickets, darts and arrows, brocade ropes and other things, went out through the window again, and left quickly.
About two hours later.
Shen Lian came to the commanding heights of a street corner and looked at the prefect's yamen from afar.
'Mountain mastiff' bone meal is rubbed out and rubbed between the nose.
The breath on the old brocade rope of the token, although it is not possible to distinguish that it belongs to Liu Dayong. But obviously, it came from within the yamen and was related to the official errand of the yamen.
Shen Lian was familiar with the road, and then went around to the place where the fishing house behind the yaya was.
"The dog's nose is quite ......"
Shen Lian laughed at himself, he could tell at this moment that the breath on the brocade rope was definitely from the capture room.
The key now is to startle the snake and take the initiative to take down Liu Dayong?
Or do you secretly track Liu Dayong and then start again?
"If you use Liu Suifeng's identity, you may get into trouble. ”
"With my own identity, I can't control Liu Dayong. ”
"Then I can only take advantage of the situation and give Liu Da a ruthless blow. ”
After Shen Lian pondered, he thought of Han Er.
I don't know if this younger brother has already obtained the status of 'Jinyiwei'.
Shen Lian made a decision and immediately quietly left.
