Two days later, Guo Wendong went out as usual, riding a little white dragon and wearing a hat, marching south, followed by twenty accompanying guards.

Huang Delin took a few people, disguised as civilians, and walked to the inn at the south corner of Gaojing Street.

This inn is called "Delong Inn", if Guo Wendong goes east or south, it is generally to take Gaojing Avenue, and Delong Inn is a must-pass place.

"It's coming! Guo Wendong is here! ”

In the guest room on the second floor of the Delong Inn, there was a guest living here, who was one of the Qing court assassins, and his companion had just come in to tell him that the target had come. He took out the crossbow arrow, opened the window, and saw Guo Wendong, riding a white horse, coming from a distance.

He sneered: "Guo Wendong, you are determined to die this time, and if you dare to go against the Qing Dynasty, you are asking for your own death." ”

The companion said: "Evacuate quickly after you succeed, maybe you have time to escape!" ”

With that, he quickly left, went down to the first floor, and sat down on a chair at a dining table.

Outsiders can't see how he is different from ordinary diners.

He and the diner in the guest room did not stay at the same time, and outsiders generally couldn't find out that the two had anything to do with each other.

He was in the hall to observe carefully, understand the effectiveness of the assassination, and confirm whether Guo Wendong was dead.

As an assassin, assassinating a character with a guard, even if he succeeds, there is a high probability that he will not have time to escape. When these people were assassins, they were ready to face death at any time, and as long as the assassination was successful, it was worth dying.

Guo Wendong, who was riding a horse, was about to pass by the entrance of the Delong Inn, and he could see the diners in the inn hall.

Chu Yuan and Huang Guangyong followed on the side, and Huang Guangyong looked into the inn and found a wicked smile on the corner of one of their mouths.

At this time, Huang Delin and a few people, pretending to be diners, walked into the hall of the inn.

He and a man, pretending to be looking for an empty seat, inadvertently walked towards the man.

When he got to the two men, he suddenly struck out, knocking one of them down with lightning speed and capturing him.

The man shouted, "Why are you arresting me?" ”

Wong dismissed it.

This sudden change shocked the diners in the hall and dispersed in a hurry.

Guo Wendong, Chu Yuan, and Huang Guangyong, who passed by the gate, saw this scene clearly.

At this time, Chu Yuan's eyes inadvertently looked at the open window on the second floor, and someone was holding a crossbow machine, aiming at Guo Wendong, who was already shooting an arrow.

"Be careful, sir!"

At this critical moment, Chu Yuan pounced on Guo Wendong and knocked him down.

With a "whoosh", the arrow passed from behind and hit the thigh of the guard behind him.

"There are assassins!"

The guards surrounded Guo Wendong.

"The assassin is on the second floor!"

Huang Guangyong shouted loudly.

Huang Delin, who was in the hall, saw this scene in the middle of the road outside the gate.

"You two come with me!"

He ran up the stairs to the second floor as fast as he could, followed by the other two.

With a "bang", the door of the guest room was kicked open by Huang Delin.

I saw a man standing by the window, holding a crossbow in his hand.

Huang Delin took out the dagger he was carrying and shouted: "Jiannu is a traitor, dare to assassinate the guerrilla general!" ”

This is, and two other subordinates also rushed in and drew daggers.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, the assassin smiled bitterly and said, "What are you afraid of death, it's a pity that you can't get rid of Guo Wendong." ”

The Assassin then drew his dagger and stabbed him in the heart, killing him instantly.

In the middle of the road at the entrance of the inn, the guards were still facing the enemy, and the people around them all exclaimed, in broad daylight, someone actually assassinated the guerrilla general.

In the hall of the inn, the diners had run out, leaving only a few members of the Central Command and their fellow assassins who had been captured.

Huang Delin came down from the second floor, holding the "murder weapon" in his hand, and walked out of the door.

"Your Excellency, the assassin in the guest room on the second floor has killed himself! This is this crossbow. ”

Guo Wendong took over the crossbow machine, which was relatively small, and the effective range of the crossbow arrow did not exceed 50 meters, and it was generally not used for military purposes.

"Poisonous, arrows poison!"

The guard, who had been shot in the thigh, was sitting on the ground, the cloth from the wound had been torn open, and it could be seen that the wound, although not too deep, had turned purple.

Guo Wendong secretly shouted that it was dangerous, otherwise Chu Yuan would fall down in time, and he would not be killed.

"Quickly send it to Qingxiu Hall for treatment!"

There were guards carrying him on his back and running quickly towards the Qingxiu Hall.

Guo Wendong looked at Chu Yuan and said, "You saved my life, this great merit will be recorded first, and it will definitely be rewarded in the future." ”

Chu Yuan clenched his fists and said modestly: "It is the duty of subordinates to protect adults, and it is a dereliction of duty for subordinates to be frightened by adults!" ”

Guo Wendong entered the Delong Inn and went up to the guest room on the second floor.

The Assassin had fallen in a pool of blood.

Huang Delin searched the assassin's body, and through the road guide, he learned that it was from Xuzhou Mansion, but other than that, he found nothing of value.

Further down the hall, he looked at the fellow Assassin.

The man looked innocent and shouted, "Why did you arrest me? How dare you arrest someone for no reason! ”

Guo Wendong shouted: "Assassin accomplices, see how long you can be hard-mouthed!" ”

He said to Huang Delin: "Take it back and interrogate it well!" ”

The man was then taken away.

The body of the assassin was carried to the shopkeeper, and both the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper were terrified.

Huang Delin shouted: "Your inn is inhabited by assassins, you don't even know it, I think it's the same party!" ”

The shopkeeper was horrified and said, "My lord has wronged! Cao Min Cheng is honest in business, but he really doesn't know that he is an assassin. ”

Wong asked heavily, "When did the assassins stay at the inn?" Didn't you notice anything unusual? ”

The shopkeeper replied, "Six days ago, this Assassin had come to stay at the inn, and he had brought a sack with him, and he had shown him his way; Another day passed, and the man who had just been arrested came to stay here. My lord, the grass people do things according to the law, and the two people are registered in the house, so it is impossible for the grass people to search the sacks of the guests. My lord, the grass people are really wronged! Fortunately, Master Guo is fine, the assassin really deserves to die, and he should be cut in front of a thousand knives in public! ”

With years of experience, Huang Delin judged that the shopkeeper was no problem.

Huang Delin whispered to Guo Wendong: "It seems that the shopkeeper should be unaware. ”

Guo Wendong said: "Isn't there a living mouth? ”

Huang Delin said: "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will pry their mouths open." ”

Guo Wendong was originally going to go out of the city to inspect the troops training at the southern foot of Shenlie Mountain, but when such a thing happened, he canceled the trip.

When I came to Qingxiu Hall, the injured guards were being treated in a room, and screams were heard from time to time.

A doctor said, "My lord, Dr. Chen is being treated. The arrow is very poisonous, but fortunately, the treatment is timely, and Dr. Chen is amputating a leg of the guard. ”

In ancient times, there were no anesthetics, and the forced amputation of the limb was really painful.

There is an anesthetic in the space warehouse, but it must be injected. If he introduced this method of injection into this plane, he thought it was too strange to do it for the time being.

Guo Wendong thought about it, the scene just now was really thrilling, if he was shot, unless he was shot in the limbs, or even if the wound was not deep, he would definitely die of poison.

Back in the house, Mao Lingzhi and Ma Lanxin came to her husband, although the two of them had not experienced it in person, nor had they witnessed it with their own eyes, which also made the three of them afraid.

Mao Lingzhi said: "Husband, fortunately you are fine!" What a blessing! ”

Guo Wendong said: "Hmph! Jiannu wants to take my life, don't think about it! ”

Ma Lanxin said: "Jiannu must have been afraid of his husband, so he resorted to such indiscriminate methods. ”

She looked angry, and her pretty face was like a layer of frost.

Guo Wendong took a sip of tea, calmed himself down a little, and said: "Since ancient times, various forces have competed, and in order to achieve their goals, they will do whatever it takes. It is not surprising that someone was sent to assassinate me. There is a long way to go to completely defeat Jiannu. ”
