Chapter 53: The Killer with a Confused Face
At this time, Zhang Cheng and Fa Zheng still didn't dare to relax their vigilance, they didn't know if these killers were coming, but they waited until the rooster crowed, and no one came in again, so they relaxed their vigilance a little and leaned on the corner half asleep.
Guo Zhiyuan didn't sleep well in the first half of the night, he kept his ears pointed to listen to the movement, and in the second half of the night, he knew that it was safe before he heard the movement, and he fell asleep with confidence, but Chu Wan'er felt an inexplicable sense of security as long as she was with Guo Zhiyuan, and began to hold on, and fell asleep not long after.
The situation was as Guo Zhiyuan expected, the plan went very smoothly, there was no movement at night, and the gang of men in black did not dare to do it again after breaking most of their hands, and honestly stayed in the house and waited for dawn.
This is also thanks to Xu Guangqi's proposal, at that time Guo Zhiyuan saw that something was wrong, so he discussed with Xu Guangqi, Xu Guangqi put forward this idea, at that time Guo Zhiyuan was still half-convinced, although Guo Zhiyuan, who had mixed with officialdom in his previous life, was very experienced in some aspects, but he lacked experience in walking the rivers and lakes, but Xu Guangqi wandered in the rivers and lakes for decades, and his experience can be regarded as rich, and he also controls people's psychology very accurately, so he decided on this virtual and real plan.
As soon as the morning dawned, Guo Zhiyuan and the others were ready to set off, in order to confuse the killers, everyone did not leave immediately, but had breakfast in the hall first, and the remaining killers saw that they were so calm and composed, and they did not dare to act rashly, so they could only hide behind the door and watch through the crack in the door, not daring to take a step out of the door.
Guo Zhiyuan and Xu Guangyuan glanced at each other and smiled knowingly. After eating some miscellaneous grains, everyone packed up and left, and Zhao Shizhen and his servants also changed their clothes and mixed in as a matter of course.
Several killers inside the door were still carefully hiding behind the door and observing, whispering.
"Did you see that Zhao Shizhen?"
"I didn't see it clearly, there are so many of them, how can I see it!"
"Our people haven't seen it either, they won't be so ruthless, let's kill all the brothers we sent!"
"No, six big living people, even if you kill six chickens, you can't have no movement at all!"
"Don't fight, wait until they go up and have a look!"
While speaking, Guo Zhiyuan and his party went on the road, on the way, Guo Zhiyuan saw that Zhao Shizhen was old and invited him into the carriage, Wang Xi They didn't know anything about last night, as the so-called ignorant people are fearless, they slept soundly last night and set off in good spirits, but it was difficult for Zhang Cheng and Fa Zheng, the two of them had been napping immediately, which made Chu Wan'er laugh all the way.
And that group of killers, seeing Guo Zhiyuan and his party out of the inn, didn't dare to go out of the door, and it took a long time to send a killer out to check the situation, and after a while, the killer came back with a confused face.
"How's it going?"
"I didn't find our brother, I searched all the rooms, I didn't see anyone, the furnishings inside were normal, there was no trace of a fight......"
"Impossible! Six big living people, how can you say that they are gone if they don't? Even if they are killed, there will be corpses! ……”
"No, I don't believe you can go up and see for yourself! ……”
"These people shouldn't know how to do demon magic! Wiped them all out! ……”
The more the killers talked, the more frightened they became, and their eyes all showed frightened expressions, but the leader of the killers was calmer, waved his hand and said, "Don't scare yourself, how can there be any demon magic in this world!" But these people are really not simple, we are not wronged! After all, I didn't get served by them, so now let's think about how to explain to the master! ……”
When it came to how to explain to their masters, the killers were silent, they all knew how terrible the master behind them was, and none of them could afford the price of mission failure.
"Let's just say that dozens of masters suddenly appeared and rescued Zhao Shizhen, and we still have a few brothers dead, can the master still embarrass us? ......," one of the killers whispered.
"The master won't listen to your explanation, if the mission fails, there is only one ending waiting for us, death!" The killer who pretended to be Xiao Er before cried and said with a sad face.
The leader of the killer knew that he couldn't discuss any good ideas with his own straw bale subordinates, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Now I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, since Zhao Shizhen is going to return to his hometown this time, why don't we go to his hometown again, if he goes back, we will still have a chance!" Fortunately, we didn't expose the identity of the master, and he shouldn't be able to kill us all, but if he can't do it, he can only fall into the grass! ……”
If Zhao Shizhen was not accepted by Guo Zhiyuan, he would still be unable to escape death, the famous firearms expert of the Ming Dynasty in history had no ambition in his life, and he was very down, although he escaped the suspicion after the "demon book case", but also because of it, he was physically and mentally exhausted, it is said that he later went insane, and even dreamed of his life many times, and finally fell ill, depressed and died. But now that he has met Guo Zhiyuan, his fate has naturally changed, and he can finally show his strengths and shine!
Besides, after Guo Zhiyuan and his entourage walked out for a few miles, Guo Zhiyuan ordered to stop when he saw that there was no one around, and asked Zhang Cheng and others to carry down a few boxes from the car, and carried out the killers caught last night like a big change, which scared the unsuspecting Wang Xi and others, Guo Zhiyuan didn't explain, and he didn't try to interrogate those killers, because he knew in his heart that even if he interrogated them, it would definitely have the same result as the previous killer, and since he had guessed who the mastermind was, he didn't do anything more. Leave a few killers behind and continue on their way.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to ride in the same carriage with Zhao Shizhen, Xu Guangqi chatted with Zhao Shizhen. As Guo Zhiyuan's number one adviser, he naturally saw that Guo Zhiyuan valued Zhao Shizhen, and he wanted to find a way to shorten the distance between them.
"I heard that Mr. Zhao has a lot of research on firearms?" Xu Guangqi deliberately looked for a topic that Zhao Shizhen was interested in.
"Oh? Does Mr. Xu also know about this? ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, contemptible people just have a little study of mechanical theory......"
As soon as firearms were mentioned, Zhao Shizhen came to his senses, "Firearms also need to be applied to mechanical principles, so can Mr. Xu tell the old man your opinion?" ……”
"I think that the current firebolt needs to be refilled* after each shot, and then fired, which is both time-consuming and too troublesome, can we make some improvements at the tail hook and the line of fire, can we make it burst fire? ……”
When Zhao Shizhen heard this, he suddenly felt like a confidant, and slapped his thigh hard and said: "It's really the same thing that heroes see!" I've had this idea for a long time, and I've done some experiments, but I haven't thought of a solution yet......"
