Chapter 43: Assassination
When Fang Ling said this, everyone felt that it was like the truth in terms of emotion and reason, and those guards actually pretended to be embarrassed, which made everyone believe it even more.
The corners of Ma Kai's mouth hooked a smile, it turned out to be a few guards who were greedy for pleasure, and the kung fu was definitely not high, but he still glanced at Dong Canghai more.
Dong Canghai had already been reminded by Chen Mou to make a ashamed expression, which suddenly made Ma Kai no longer doubt it.
After the banquet, everyone was escorted back to the dwellings of the houses, which were also very quiet at this time, and they had obviously already rested.
After the soldiers arrived, they all returned to the barracks, and as soon as they went upstairs, Fang Ling immediately asked Dong Canghai, "Master, what news have you heard?"
Dong Canghou said solemnly: "I found a roll of paper in Ma Kai's bedroom, on which were written with two words: 'assassination'. ”
Fang Ling raised his sword eyebrows and said: "It seems that this is the order of Empress Song, it is not bad as we expected, it is an assassination, then the master can find out what strategy they are going to use." ”
Dong Canghai said: "I took the path past, arrived at the bedroom one step ahead of them, and quietly lurked outside the window after finding the note, and it didn't take long for Ma Kai and the deputy general He Bao to come back, and the two discussed something in a whisper, but the voice was too small I didn't hear it." However, I quietly followed He Bao and found that he had gathered some people and went to the treasury. When they were gone, I sneaked in and looked around, and found a lot of firewood inside, as well as a large vat of grease, some of which had been soaked in the tank. ”
Fang Ling and Chen Mou shouted almost at the same time: "Fire!"
Then, Chen Mou looked outside and sneered: "Ma Kai arranged us in the house, it was really premeditated." ”
Dong Canghai was puzzled: "How do you say this?"
Chen Mou smiled slightly: "Now winter, is the most dry time of the year, and it is also the most likely to cause fires, plus we have a high building here, if it is on fire, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape, they can be explained that we forgot to extinguish the candle when we sleep, and we are asleep." ”
Dong Canghai frowned and said, "In this way, it is really seamless." ”
Chen Mou continued: "Although Ma Kai is the main general, if we are arranged to live in the army, which has complicated contacts, various forces, and patrol soldiers, it will be much more difficult to assassinate us. However, the dwellings are different here, although there are private houses around, but they are a place of lax guard, so let us live upstairs, and then burn with greased firewood, we will not escape even if we "plug in" our wings. Not only that, Ma Kai can completely shirk his responsibility after the incident, because he gave up the best place in the city to his group to live in, which is completely kind. ”
"What a vicious intention!" Dong Canghai snorted coldly and said suddenly, "However, we are not defenseless people, if we are awake, won't their trick be useless?"
Fang Ling smiled lightly: "Since the first meeting, this Ma Kai has always been respectful, that is, to reduce our wariness of him, as soon as we drink this wine at night, everyone will be more or less drunk, and, if I expected it correctly, the decanting soup sent by those soldiers just now should have something like sweat 'medicine', once we drink it, it will be difficult to remember." ”
Dong Canghai sneered: "But their wishful thinking is wrong, Your Highness, then what should we do now?"
Fang Ling smiled slightly and said: "Master, you and your men go down and get some sand, if there is really a fire, it can be extinguished in time, as for Imperial Doctor Chen, you ......"
Chen Mou snorted and said: "The subordinates only use their brains, not their hands, the only thing they can do is to go to sleep and wait for the departure early tomorrow morning." ”
All three of them burst out laughing, and all that was left to await the arsonist came.
Since he obtained the method of Sun Melting and Moon Solution, practicing every day has become a compulsory course for Fang Ling, during the day, he cultivates the Sun Fire Strength, and at night, he cultivates the Moon Yin Ice Strength, these two forces must be in a delicate balance, so that the resulting conflict can be quickly reduced, so as not to harm the physical body.
At this time, the moon "color" hung high, and with Fang Ling's luck, the strength of the moon yin that existed in the air could not be seen by the naked eye, and entered his body with his breathing, merging with the existing ice energy.
Bing Jin walked freely through his body, allowing Fang Ling to enter the realm of selflessness.
I don't know how long it took, the sound of small footsteps of "rustling" came into the eardrums, which suddenly woke Fang Ling up, and he hurriedly jumped out and walked out with a bow.
At this time, Dong Cangmu was half-squatting in the corridor, and when he saw Fang Ling coming out, he pointed outside.
The moon was obscured by thick clouds at some point, and at night, it was dark near the building, except for some lights in the distance.
But Fang Ling clearly saw that in the two small alleys around him, there were many masked people approaching here quickly, ♀ and some people were very cautious and cautious, they first stopped on the side of the house, carefully observing the movement on the building.
Fortunately, the railing in this corridor is a whole piece, and there are only some small gaps, which can not only block the bodies of Fang Ling and others, but also make it easy to observe the situation downstairs.
Ma Kai only considered that the building was isolated and easy to burn, but he didn't expect that the view of the tall building was also extremely wide, and all the surrounding movements could be seen.
It seemed that there was no movement on the building, not even the guards, so these figures quickly ran over.
At this time, Fang Ling also counted clearly, there were about a dozen people on one side of the two alleys, some of them were responsible for guarding, observing the movement outside the alleys, and some of them were holding bright knives, probably to prevent someone from escaping from the building after the fire, while the other part of the people were holding a large pile of firewood, which were stained with oil, obviously soaked in grease, once ignited, the fire would be strong all of a sudden.
The corners of Fang Ling's mouth hooked a cruel smile, it seems that Ma Kai really has a lot of cronies, there are more than thirty people, if these people are all dead, I don't know what his expression will be?
At this time, Dong Canghai said in a low voice: "Your Highness, I will leave it to us below." ”
Fang Ling smiled slightly: "If you want to kill the people who want to kill me, how can I stand idly by? When they get closer, leave two people upstairs to prevent accidents, and everyone else will kill the enemy with me, don't leave a single person alive!"
Dong Canghai knew that Fang Ling had made a killing move, and his face was also cold, and he made a killing gesture towards his guards.
When the dozen or so masked people were only about three meters away from the foot of the building, Fang Ling took the lead in jumping down, and when he landed, the fire pattern beast horns were pulled out of his back and quickly slashed towards the masked people in front of him.
Where did the masked man expect that there was someone lurking on the quiet building, and he hurriedly threw away the firewood, and was about to draw a knife to fight back, but how fast Fang Ling's speed was, the moment he threw away the firewood, the sharp horns had already crossed his neck, and a blood mark brought blood spurting all over the sky, which was poignant and picturesque.
As the deputy commander of the guards, Dong Canghai's skills were naturally extraordinary, and almost at the same time, he also killed a masked man.
The other four guards also landed on the ground one after another, accurately locking on to their opponents.
The masked men were suddenly taken aback, threw away the firewood in their hands, drew their swords, and came towards several people to besiege them.
With a cruel smile on Fang Ling's face, he swung his knife and slashed directly, and this was the first time he experienced the sharpness of the fire pattern beast horn, what is called invincible, what is called gold and stone can be broken.
The knives in the hands of these masked men were several times harder than the knives of ordinary town soldiers, and even if they were a hundred refining knives, they would have to hit the same position more than a dozen times to be able to cut them out.
However, these were like tofu in front of the fire pattern beast horns, Fang Ling slashed them fiercely, and the beast horns cut directly into half an inch, but after three knives, they directly collapsed into two halves.
Although Fang Ling only has a gas accumulation period, with this Fire Pattern Beast Knife, it is like a tiger with wings, and its strength is as if it has reached the realm of rigid qi, and its strength can collapse the mountain.
How did the masked people expect that Fang Ling had such a treasure knife in his hand, and after a few knives, the weapon in his hand was broken, and after a hesitation, his life was gone.
For a while, the downstairs became a soul-breaking field, whether it was Fang Ling, Dong Canghai or the guards, they all performed the strongest killing moves, and with one sword, the enemy didn't even have time to let out a scream before they sent their souls.
Everything was silent, the murderous machine spread like a flood, there was no language here, or rather, it was the murderous weapons that spoke.
Occasionally, a fish that slipped through the net rushed to the bottom of the building, ready to take out a fire fold and light the fire, but was splashed down by a pile of sand, and immediately "lost" his eyes, and at the same time was killed by the guards who rushed to kill him.
The sharp blades of the crowd were like deadly deaths, but in just a few moments, more than a dozen masked people were already dead and wounded.
At this time, masked people with large knives came one after another.
Fang Ling grinned, as if possessed by death, as soon as he jumped over, he fell ghostly in front of the masked man, and the moon yin ice rushed into his arm and attached to the blade.
Suddenly, a knife was like an iceberg of cold air, and before the knife arrived, people couldn't help but shudder, and after a hesitation, their lives were not guaranteed.
These people are Ma Kai's cronies, although he knows that Fang Ling and the guards are not high in martial arts, but he still sent a team of thirty people, which shows how cautious he is, these soldiers are also good, according to the martial arts realm, they have all reached the accumulation period.
However, for Fang Ling, who had the fire pattern beast horn in his hand, Dong Canghai and the others, who had reached the realm of rigidity, were useless at all, and they were cut to the ground like watermelons one by one.
This is no longer a battle of equal strength, but a one-sided slaughter.
