Chapter 31: The Assassin Who Suddenly Appeared

In the house, Long Zun was sleeping soundly, and two black shadows appeared in the corridor outside the house, quickly shuttling over and stopping in front of his door.

One of the shadows leaned down, slowly pushed the door open with his hand, put an eye on it, and peeked inside.

"Don't worry, I have won my special incense, and I am guaranteed to sleep like a dead pig at this time. Li Jing patted Li's heavy shoulder, who was lying on the crack in the door, and said.

"It's better to be careful. Having said that, Li Houzhong, who was squatting in front of the door, still stood up and raised his hand to push the door open.

"Come on, there's an Assassin!

Suddenly, there was a shouting in the front yard, and for a while there was a lot of fire, the footsteps were chaotic, and the lights of the nearby houses were lit up.

Li Houzhong and Li Jing glanced at each other, slowly closed the door opened by Long Zun, and the two of them each returned the same way and retreated to their rooms.

There were more and more chaotic footsteps in the courtyard, and the shouts became more and more frequent, and Long Zun, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by the noise outside the house, and sat up from the bed in a daze.

I didn't know what was going on outside, so I got up and staggered to the door.

Stretched out his hand and pulled the hidden door, as soon as he opened it, a faint black shadow flashed in front of the door, bringing a cool breeze to blow in front of his face.

He rubbed his eyes, rubbed his cheeks vigorously with his hands, opened his eyes and looked carefully, and the black shadow disappeared, only the flickering of the fire and the noisy sound of speech in the courtyard.

"It's strange, I just saw a dark shadow. Long Zun scratched the back of his head a few times.

Just as he wanted to go back to the house to take a look, the door of a room next to him opened, and Li Jing walked out of it.

"Why is it so noisy outside?" Li Jing stretched and asked Long Zun, who was standing in front of the door.

Long Zun gave up going back to the house, leaned his back against the door frame, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I was also woken up because of the noise outside." ”

At this moment, the shouts of the assassin were clearly heard.

"There are assassins, who are so bold to come to the Lu family to assassinate. Li Jing left her room and approached Long Zun.

Long Zun frowned and didn't speak, thinking of the black shadow that flashed outside the house before going to bed, and the black shadow he saw when he just opened the door, wondering if there was something related to the two, or if it was the assassin that the Lu family was looking for.

"Hey, what are you thinking!" Li Jing tilted his head to look at Long Zun's face, shook his hand in front of his eyes, and found that there was no response, so he shouted loudly.

"Oh!" Long Zun came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's nothing, I think about the assassin that the Lu family hunted down just now!"

"Don't think about it, the assassin has not been caught for so long, there must be two hits, if you don't get it right, you still have to cultivate into a powerful cultivator, let's stay away from such a powerful character and leave it to the Lu family to solve it themselves" Li Jing shrugged her shoulders.

With his back to the corridor and his body half-leaning on the door frame, Long Zun heard a rush of footsteps in his ears, and turned to look behind him.

At the other end of the corridor, in the shadow behind the light, two black shadows walked quickly, and when he walked to the corridor, he was illuminated by the lights on both sides, and he saw clearly that the people who came were Li Houzhong and a girl, and the girl was Li Houzhong's fiancée.

When they came closer, Li Houzhong and Li Jing looked at each other for a moment, then looked at Long Zun and said, "The Lu family is in a situation, you two are fine!"

"Don't worry, it's okay with the two of us. Long Zun saw Li Hou's eyes looking at him, so he said.

"It's okay. The girl walked out from behind Li Houzhong, "It's not a big deal, I believe it will be solved soon, I apologize to the two on behalf of the Lu family for disturbing the two of them to rest." ”

"I don't blame you for the incident, no one would have thought that this kind of thing would happen suddenly, did the assassin catch it?" asked Long Zun.

"Not yet, but as long as people don't leave the Lu family, they won't be able to escape. At the mention of the assassin, a fierce look flashed across the girl's face.

At this moment, I heard a chaotic sound of footsteps from the back of the hallway, and a faint fire.

The four of them looked at each other in unison, and in a short time, a team of seven or eight people, each holding a torch, came out of the back of the hallway.

Walking at the front of the team was a middle-aged man, he saw the girl behind Li Houzhong froze for a moment, and then said, "Xiaoya is also here!"

Xiaoya is Li Houzhong's fiancée, her real name is Lu Ya, and people close to her are usually called Xiaoya.

After Lu Ya saw the middle-aged man at the front of the team, his face turned gloomy at first, and then he asked: "It turned out to be the fourth uncle, I don't know if you have caught the assassin?" If you don't catch the assassin, you should hurry up and catch the assassin." ”

It is obvious that Lu Ya does not have the slightest respect for the fourth uncle in his mouth, but is faintly hostile.

"This ...... Not yet, but someone saw the assassin coming in the backyard, and I brought someone over to check it out. The middle-aged man said with a little embarrassment, and immediately saw Li Houzhong and Long Zun and Li Jing on the side, "The Li family boy is also here, these two are ......"

He raised his hand to the void and pointed at Long Zun and Li Jing, and turned his head to ask Lu Ya on the side.

"They are my guests. Lu Ya explained, and then said coldly, "Fourth uncle, if you have nothing to do, you should hurry up and catch the assassin, the longer the time drags on, the greater the chance that the assassin will escape." ”

"Don't worry about catching the assassin, since it seems that Xiaoya is your guest, how can I say hello to the fourth uncle, I don't know what to call the two. The middle-aged man asked with a smile.

Long Zun and Li Jing glanced at each other, no matter how stupid the two of them were, they understood that there was a disagreement between the middle-aged man in front of them and Li Houzhong's fiancée, or a faint hostility.

When the two of them didn't know how to speak, Li Houzhong suddenly said: "This is Li Jing, from the Li family like me, and the one next to him is Long Zun, from the Long family in Zhulin Town." ”

As soon as he finished the introduction, the middle-aged man's face sank suddenly, as if someone owed him money.

His gaze swept over Li Jing and fell directly on Long Zun, his eyes narrowed, his eyes flashed, and he asked in a cold voice, "Are you from the Long family in Zhulin Town?"

Feeling the gaze in the middle-aged man's eyes and the cold tone, Long Zun groaned in his heart, as if he was being targeted by a fierce beast, and the hair on his body stood upside down.

Among the people he knew, only the elders of the Long family and individual clan elders had made him feel this way.

Secretly took a deep breath, took a step hard, arched his hands, and said, "Long Zun, I've seen my predecessors." ”

"Heh!" the middle-aged man snorted and said in a strange tone, "Don't mess around, I, Lu Laosi, can't climb your Long family." ”

Seeing that Long Zun was locked by Lu Laosi's momentum, Lu Ya's pretty face became a little ugly, and she reminded him: "Fourth uncle, he is my guest." ”

As soon as the words fell, Long Zun's feeling of being like a thorn in his back disappeared, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that I don't know why the middle-aged man in front of him was hostile to him from the beginning when he heard that he was from the Long family in Zhulin Town, could it be that the middle-aged man had a grudge against someone from the Long family, causing the other party to be angry with him.

While he was thinking wildly, Lu Laosi said: "For the safety of the Lu family, I will bring someone in to search." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned to a few people behind him, and raised his leg to step into the door.

Lu Ya on the side took a step forward, just in front of Lu Laosi.

Lu Laosi's face turned gloomy and said, "Xiaoya, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Ya sneered and said, "As I said just now, they are all my guests, Fourth Uncle, it doesn't seem appropriate for you to go in and search for assassins with such fanfare! ”

Lu Laosi's body suddenly paused, retracted his half-stepped leg, turned his head and smiled awkwardly at Lu Ya, "Where is this, since Xiaoya you have said so, the fourth uncle still has to give this face." ”

Putting away his smile, he turned around and yelled at the few people he had brought behind him, "What else do you see, go, follow me somewhere else, don't let the assassin escape." ”

Lu Laosi left quickly with people.
