Chapter 542: Low-level killer
This assassination was calculated, well prepared, and quite professional. It's already a threat to the little treasures.
At this time, it was the morning, Zhu Xiaobao was not in the car, but riding a horse to enjoy the scenery along the way, although it was a boundless desert, but for Zhu Xiaobao still felt very spectacular! And at this time, Jumei walked in front with two giant men, while the old apprentice was busy preparing his food.
In this endless desert, it should always be safe, right? Even if you want to get close to yourself, it's impossible, you can't hide your whereabouts at all! Zhu Xiaobao is still thinking like this as he walks!
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jumei, who was walking in front, roared, and the two giants around him also reacted quickly, and the mace in his hand shot at the same time, and smashed it the ground, and saw that the place where the mace hit suddenly collapsed, and a blood mist more than three feet high rose from the ground, and the two killers who were originally ambushed under the ground had been stoned to death!
But one of the killers still rushed out, jumped high, and flew in the direction where Zhu Xiaobao was......
Zhu Xiaobao was a little stunned, he didn't expect the assassin to come out of the ground! And with a repeating crossbow in his hand, he pulled the machine spring towards Zhu Xiaobao......
This is a three-shot stainless steel/crossbow, the workmanship is excellent, the speed of the crossbow arrow is extremely fast, but the crossbow arrow is not long, only about a foot, but it shoots towards the little treasures with the sound of the wind!
The mace in the hands of the big bear and the two bears didn't have time to raise it at this time, but the two of them cooperated tacitly, reacted quickly, and the two of them each took a step across, their bodies close to each other, and they actually used their bodies to block the three crossbow arrows!
The two crossbow arrows were blocked by the shoulders of the two bears, but one of them shot out of the gap between the necks of the two of them, and went straight to the face of Zhu Xiaobao!
"Dang!"
The sound of all the collisions also stirred up sparks in front of Zhu Xiaobao, and the kitchen knife in Zhu Xiaobao's hand was already across the front door, blocking this fatal arrow! But this time it was not this kitchen knife that automatically protected it, but Zhu Xiaobao relied on his own reaction speed, Zhu Xiaobao drew the knife to block horizontally, and the action was done in one go, and the trajectory of the crossbow arrow was also accurately judged, and the arrow was blocked very accurately!
But Zhu Xiaobao's body was shocked into a cold sweat! If it weren't for the two bears blocking the other two crossbow arrows, would he be able to block the shooting of the three crossbow arrows?
Three crossbow arrows were fired, and the killer had no chance, Jumei had already turned back from the front, and before the killer landed, Jumei's golden hammer had already come out of his hand and smashed heavily on the killer's back.
With a scream, the killer landed in front of Zhu Xiaobao's horse!
"Let's talk about it! Who sent you? "Zhu Xiaobao himself is a little strange, in the face of this killer, he is not very angry, he wants to know the mastermind behind the scenes!
"Kill...... Kill me, we didn't even want to make it back alive! "The killer's injuries were extremely serious, and Jumei's hammer had basically shattered most of the bones in his back, and his heart and lungs were also severely damaged. It's just that there is still a breath of air for the time being!
"Alas! Why bother, isn't it good to live? I can heal you! Zhu Xiaobao sighed and said.
"If I live, my family will die! If I die, my family will be able to live in peace! The killer sat up tremblingly, pulled out another dagger from his waist, and looked like he wanted to kill himself! There is still a kind of relief in his eyes,
"Humph! Die if you want! I'm afraid that the result may not be as good as you think! "Zhu Xiaobao didn't stop him. Based on past experience, such a person will not reveal half a word! They have many ways to kill themselves. Many people have spent their entire lives on such an assassination mission, and no matter whether they succeed or not, he will never live again! Because only the dead are the best at keeping secrets!
The killer visibly hesitated, then decided to trust his choice. The dagger was plunged into the chest, and he died in an instant!
By this time, the guards had dug up the ground in front of them, revealing the structure inside, and it was evident that it had been fully prepared, and that the ground below was actually made of solid wood, although the place was very small enough for one person to hide. But the structure is sturdy, so the horses of the guards in front of them did not collapse when they passed. If it weren't for Jumei's super sensing ability, they could wait a little longer and be able to appear directly in front of Zhu Xiaobao!
Two more corpses were dug up from the ground, and they had been smashed by the big bear and the two bears, and they were both holding a repeating crossbow in their hands......
At this time, Ha Chitu and Qiu Baiyan hurried over, Ha Chitu rarely got out of his carriage after the first assassination, and he was having fun in the carriage, he cherished his life very much, he had so much money, he must have a life to spend!
And Qiu Baiyan is busy with the old apprentice, he is completely attracted by those delicacies, he is not afraid of assassination, he has martial arts, and he also knows that he is not an important person, no one will assassinate him!
So he is following the old apprentice to learn about those new things, for example, the old apprentice is now using the briquette stove makes him very amazed, this thing is so convenient, the old apprentice can cook very calmly on another carriage, no need to fetch firewood outside at all......
"What's the situation? What's the situation? Forehead...... Killer again? Qiu Baiyan ran over and said a little embarrassed at first glance. He repeatedly assured that this road would definitely be smooth and safe, but he didn't expect to encounter the second wave of killers in just two days!
"Humph! That's what you're talking about, it's all arranged? At this rate, there are more than a dozen waves of killers along the way! Zhu Xiaobao snorted, he had already dismounted, and wanted to give the big bear and the two bears anesthetic, because these two guys were both injured by an arrow, and they were injured in order to block the arrows for themselves. Zhu Xiaobao was still very moved in his heart. The two stupid fellows were loyal and identified themselves as masters. So, as the owner, take care of these two silly guys too!
However, what Zhu Xiaobao didn't expect was that these two stupid guys didn't need any anesthetics at all, and as soon as they pulled it out, they had already pulled out the crossbow arrows by themselves and brought down a piece of flesh, but the two stupid guys didn't care at all, and they were talented, not only were their skin and flesh very strong, but they also recovered twice as fast as Superman, and they had very little blood!
"Huh! It could be an accident, and the killer's abilities are limited! Hehe, it must not hurt the British king Chitose! Qiu Baiyan avoided the weight and patted the horse and said.
"Who do you think would want to kill me so much?" Zhu Xiaobao didn't blame Qiu Baiyan, but he didn't eat his sycophant kung fu.
"I don't know! It depends on how many enemies you have! With all due respect, you started from the Great Xia Kingdom, to Lingyue Mountain, Luofeng Island, to Princess Island, and finally to Zirui Kingdom, I am afraid that there are not a few people who want to kill you! Qiu Baiyan told Zhu Xiaobao's development trajectory again, and said a little staggeringly. In this way, the area involved in Zhu Xiaobao is really wide!
"Well, yes, I'm traveling the world!" Zhu Xiaobao also said helplessly.
"Master, otherwise...... You'd better go back to the car, it's a lot safer! The old apprentice said a little apologetically, but he was also puzzled in his heart, and whispered to himself: "Didn't Duanmuqi say that this trip is worry-free!" Why is his auspicious hexagram not working? ”
"Don't mention to me Duanmu Qi, this old man, what is the hexagram of good luck, it's not nonsense, I have to add a sentence when it comes: At most, there is no danger! Anyway, it can justify anything! Zhu Xiaobao suddenly said angrily, in fact, at first he thought that this time was a very easy trip, but he didn't expect it to be an adventure!
At this time, Yu Qing also rushed over from the front of the team, Zhu Xiaobao was assassinated, of course she was the most anxious and angry, this was the first time she led the team to perform such an important task, but she didn't expect to be assassinated again and again, Yu Qing's heart was very angry!
"My brother, you'd better go back to the car! If you're bored, I can have my maid perform a belly dance for you! Don't show your face outside, you're a big man now......" Ha Chitu also nodded again and again and said, this guy came in a hurry, with the marks of rouge lipstick on his face, and the unique fox smell of Western women!
"Get out! Hachitu, you want to be hedonistic and indulgent, I don't interfere with you, you fucking gag the mouths of two women for me, and the province howls and screams, and you can hear it from eight miles away! "As soon as Zhu Xiaobao saw Ha Chitu, he was angry! This guy is too indulgent along the way, the key is that the two Western Turkic women are indulgent and like to howl loudly, even the little treasures can hear it!
"Hmmm! Please return to the car! Unexpectedly, Yu Qing also whispered at this time, she was completely thinking about it from the perspective of safety, Zhu Xiaobao's car was heavy and sturdy, very safe, and if Zhu Xiaobao was in the car, it would be easy to protect his safety.
"Humph! Even if you open the way ahead, I don't care about these assassins! Zhu Xiaobao hummed a little unpleasantly. Then he returned to the carriage with some disappointment. Not because he was afraid, but because he was no longer in the mood to enjoy the scenery!
Hachitu is a cheeky old face, and he really brought two belly dancers to Zhu Xiaobao's carriage, so that Zhu Xiaobao can enjoy this exotic style! And I also brought the freshly grilled lamb skewers, as well as mare's milk wine, admiring the exotic style, and even the food and drink must be matched to have a feeling!
Although it was a little crowded in the carriage, Zhu Xiaobao still enjoyed a very distinctive belly dance with great interest, and it was really quite kung fu, and the two belly dancers also did their best, and the performance was extremely exciting, and Zhu Xiaobao who watched it also applauded, and finally one person rewarded ten taels of silver!
After Hachitu left with the dancer, Zhu Xiaobao began to ponder carefully, who wanted to kill him? But there are so many people you can think of......
From Zhu Xiaobao's point of view, the most wanted to kill himself should be the Southern Zirui Kingdom, not only Yu Shichang wanted to kill himself, but even Yu Wanqiang also wanted to kill himself, now the Northern Zirui Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger, and it has begun to surpass the Southern Zirui Kingdom, and the battle between the north and the south is just a matter of time. Now that Zhu Xiaobao is far away in the West, it is best to succeed in assassination, even if it fails, he would not think that only the Southern Zirui Kingdom would send people to assassinate him!
In addition, the most suspicious is Ji Zhichen, as well as the Sixth Highness, these two people also have gaps with themselves, and Zhu Xiaobao is strongly supporting the nineteenth princess, which makes it possible for the nineteenth princess to compete for the throne of the Great Xia Kingdom. So these two people are also very suspicious! Even if the assassination fails, it can mess up the situation, which is what they want to see the most!
In the end, there are those who are jealous of Zhu Xiaobao, the Mutu tribe, the Ming King, and even the King You, who is not willing to reconcile Zhu Xiaobao and Zuowang Jialanga......
Thinking about it, Zhu Xiaobao's heart began to be bored again, which is why he has been reluctant to participate in it, it seems to be very beautiful and domineering, but there are too many things to consider, and the risks he faces have also increased significantly......
On the third day, they were about to leave the desert, and Zhu Xiaobao encountered the third wave of killers, to be exact, there was only one person, but before this killer could do anything, he was captured alive by the old apprentice.
It turned out that the old apprentice was also a little guilty, so on the third day, he noticed a faint murderous aura, and he sneaked over quietly and captured the killer very smoothly.
This killer didn't commit suicide, and he also confessed his identity, it turned out to be the killer of the Killer Hall, he took the task, but who wants to kill Zhu Xiaobao, but it is unknown, the Killer Hall has rules, only look at the price, don't ask the origin! So the killer didn't know who the employer was at all?
"Killer Hall? Okay, tell me, how much is my head worth? Zhu Xiaobao actually asked excitedly, he had always wanted to wash away the shame of being sent out as a white man, so he asked excitedly at this time.
"I don't know exactly how much it is, but according to the level of the mission, it's a third-level mission! This level is generally quoted between 10,000 and 30,000 taels of silver! The killer replied honestly.
"Only 30,000 taels of silver? That's too little, right? What is the price of the secondary task? Zhu Xiaobao asked again with a little disappointment.
"The second-level mission is generally aimed at the assassination target of the great martial artist level, and the price is between 50,000 and 100,000 taels of silver; The first-level task is for the super martial artist or the master of the martial arts level, and the price is determined according to the goal! Generally it starts at least 10,000 taels of gold! The killer said with a little yearning, his cultivation is only a first-level martial artist, and he can only take on third-level tasks.
"What? Fuck go back and let your intelligence department figure it out, Lao Tzu is now a great martial artist's cultivation, and he actually listed me in a third-level mission? Zhu Xiaobao was hit again, and shouted angrily.
"However, the steward said that your martial arts skills are low, your eyes are low, and you have no actual combat experience, so you can only be ranked in the third-level mission!" This killer is an honest man, and he told Zhu Xiaobao everything in charge.
"What? What the? Eye-catching hands and low hands? Still...... Still low in martial arts? Your stewards are derelict in their duties, nonsense! Come on, let's let you see today whether I am a lowly martial artist! Come, return the weapon to him. Listen, if you can win me, I'll let you go back, if you can't win, you'll be damned! Zhu Xiaobao suddenly shouted angrily, and angrily asked people to return the weapon to the killer.
"Yes!" The killer immediately came to his senses and jumped to his feet.
"Don't persuade me, I'm going to kill someone! Get out of the way! Zhu Xiaobao shouted angrily.
Sure enough, no one dared to stop it anymore, and the big guys all watched from afar as Zhu Xiaobao angrily changed into soft armor, with a pair of iron claws in his hands and a kitchen knife pinned to his waist, and walked to the center of the field with a fierce attitude.
Sure enough, although this killer only has the cultivation of a first-level martial artist, his kung fu is biased towards dexterity and speed, relying on speed to win, and he has extremely rich experience in actual combat, although his cultivation is still a big realm worse than Zhu Xiaobao, but when he came up, he actually made Zhu Xiaobao a little in a hurry!
But after ten rounds, Zhu Xiaobao adapted to his style of play, and slowly began to take the initiative, and the offensive in his hand became more and more aggressive, making the killer a little overwhelmed, one did not pay attention, and was swept by Zhu Xiaobao, but Zhu Xiaobao felt that this tiger claw did not hit the ground, but the other party actually retreated several steps in a row, and jumped up in a panic and hid behind the tree!
"Come out! It's not over yet! Zhu Xiaobao is fighting, and he can't help but shout.
But there was no movement behind the book on the other side! How? Want to use a hidden weapon? Or do you want to wait behind the tree to plot against Lao Tzu? Zhu Xiaobao also cautiously did not move forward, just in case......
"Alas! Master, people have already run away, what are you waiting for? It seems that it is quite accurate for people to classify you into three-level tasks! The old apprentice shook his head and said. He had already seen the problem, but he didn't make a move.
"Huh? How is this so, is there any professionalism? If you can't beat it, you can say it, so you ran away? Zhu Xiaobao suddenly shouted angrily.
"People are killers, they just run away if they are big, it's normal, what do you want to do, let him wait to be killed by you?" The old apprentice shook his head and sighed, this experience in the rivers and lakes is too bad!
"Well, well, now I declare that this contest ends with this killer fleeing from the wilderness, and the final result is that this king has won the final victory!" Zhu Xiaobao's face was full of depression, but he still made an ending very responsibly, and finally plunged into the carriage, and was not embarrassed to come out......
Those female warriors are covering their mouths and stealing fun, I didn't expect Zhu Xiaobao to be so funny, no different from before, they don't fancy Zhu Xiaobao's victory or defeat, what they like is the very scoundrel Zhu Xiaobao!
Finally walked out of the desert, and saw Sand Lake City from a distance, Zhu Xiaobao held a telescope in the letter in the distance of Sand Lake City, but looking at it, Zhu Xiaobao saw a group of people wearing costumes with fire and lightning patterns, holding strange things in their hands and arranging them, as if waiting for them!
"Apprentice, look, who is that person in front?"
"Huh? The people of Perak Hall? ”
"Who are they waiting for?"
"I guess I'm just waiting for you!"
