Chapter 121: Bai Yang's Assassination
Just when Bai Yang was chatting with Sun Chen and the others, in a slum in Yizhou City, there was a black-robed person and a purple-robed person talking in the dark basement.
"How much does it take to do what I just said?"
"It's not about money, he has a lot of people around him, and I can't take advantage of him now. And my people have almost been killed and injured after the last incident, and it is difficult for these people to deal with him now, what results can be obtained? ”
"It's your business, I don't want to listen to these useless things. Are you really, can a living person suffocate urine? Use your brain more, there are ways. Don't give me those useless words now, just say, how much is it this time? ”
"One hundred thousand taels, I can give it a try, but there is no guarantee of success, and yours provide me with some ordnance."
"I can provide you with the ordnance, but I can only give you 50,000 taels first, and if the matter is done, I will give you the remaining 50,000 taels. Of course, if it doesn't work out, then what kind of face do you have to come to me for the rest of the money? ”
"That's right, according to Mr. I won't bother you, let's do the old way. With that, the purple-robed man gave the black-robed man a piece of paper full of ordnance, stood up and walked out of the secret room.
After watching the other party walk out, the black-robed man slowly stood up, and then a grim laugh sounded in the empty secret room: "Hahaha........., Bai Yang, I see if you can return to Changshan County alive?" It's not good, and you don't want to stop. Hahaha........."
It is said that after Bai Yang and the other seventeen people finished lunch, they rode back in the direction of Changshan County.
Because he had to hold 5,000 catties of iron, he walked slowly along the way. It took a day and a half to travel at this speed, and it was estimated that it would take five or six days to return to the base of Ziyun Mountain.
Two days later, one afternoon, the crowd came to a small town and watched the people come and go very lively. Bai Yang thought that he couldn't get out much today, so he ordered everyone to go into the town to find an inn to rest, and continue on the road tomorrow after recuperating their spirits.
In the past two days, everyone has not eaten well, let alone rested. So Bai Yang found one of the largest inns in the town and opened an upper room for everyone to have a good rest.
In the evening, after everyone finished eating, Zhu Yan instructed Yuan Tianchi and Xun Tiancheng to keep vigil and go to the backyard to take care of the iron. Others are ready to continue their journey tomorrow.
Bai Yang has been working hard in Yizhou City for the past few days, fighting wits and courage with Han Fu and them, and now after leaving Yizhou City, he suddenly feels very weak. So, after drinking a little less wine with everyone at night, I went back to my room early and fell asleep.
In my sleep, I suddenly heard someone shouting, "Go water, go water!" Suddenly the white sun jumped.
In ancient times, because the ancients were very reverent of fire, they believed that fire was originally caused by supernatural forces, as if it was an act of punishing people. It would be unlucky to keep saying the words "fire", "fire", "fire" and so on in the face of such a fire.
Water can overcome fire in the five elements, so in order to deliberately avoid the word 'fire', the word 'water' is usually used to suppress fire, which also feels more lip-synching. Therefore, when people say "the water is gone", it actually means that there is a fire.
Hearing the continuous shouting, Bai Yang sat up from the bed and looked out the window, only to see a faint fire flickering outside.
After a few steps to the door and opened the door, I saw that the fire was raging outside, probably because of the direction of the wind, so many people did not smell a little smoke. At this moment, Bai Yang saw that people from other rooms were also coming out one after another. Bai Yang hurriedly shouted to everyone while kicking open the locked room around him, calling out to everyone to see if there was any way to get out.
This time it was careless, and I didn't expect it to catch fire. If two more people had been assigned to keep vigil for everyone, they wouldn't have found out when the fire burned to such an extent!
It didn't take long for Bai Yang's side to gather Jia Xu, Zhao Yun and others. For Bai Yang and them, in this situation, it is more difficult for others to go out, but for Bai Yang and the others, it is completely possible to jump near the window. Their room was only on the third floor, which was nothing at all for those of them who practiced martial arts.
But the troublesome thing is that for Jia Xu, Tian Feng and others, this is undoubtedly a moat. After all, they are weak, and they are not good at these things.
Bai Yang thought about it for a while, and tied everyone's coats to each other and made a rope.
"Come on, let's jump down here." Bai Yang led everyone to a room, fixed one end to the head of the bed near the window, and threw the other end directly downstairs, pointing to the window and saying to everyone.
After some other guests saw Bai Yang's method, they imitated Bai Yang, found clothes and returned to the room, and three or five people combined together to prepare to go downstairs to escape.
"Hurry up, go down." Bai Yang urged Zhu Yan to go down first, and then Wei Lin and Shi Qiang also jumped down with a few strokes of the rope. Jia Xu and the others saw that many people had gone down safely below, and asked Bai Yang to go down as well, but Bai Yang refused.
Seeing that the fire was getting stronger and stronger, it was about to burn into the room. In fact, among these people, it is mainly Jia Xu and others who are troublesome, not to mention that there is a situation with this rope, even if there is no rope, it will not cost much to go down this building.
Therefore, Bai Yang did not follow the advice of Jia Xu and others, but insisted that he and Tian Feng, Fu Zhu and others go first.
Seeing that one by one was almost gone, Bai Yang finally fell a stone in his heart.
Turning his head to look, only Nine Lives did not go down, still standing behind him, Bai Yang thought for a while, and said to him: "Nine Lives, you first-"
When Bai Yang just said this, he suddenly saw Nine Lives as if he had seen something terrible. At the same time, his natural alertness was like a warning, and suddenly a creepy feeling rose from his heart, and the hairs on his whole body felt like they stood up.
He had encountered this situation before, and every time this kind of thing happened, it was when his life was threatened. Just because of his prophetic ability, I have saved myself I don't know how many times.
Bai Yang's original idea was to immediately crouch down or roll to the side to avoid unknown dangers. But it suddenly occurred to me what would happen if I had escaped nine lives.
However, at this critical moment, there will be so much time for you to ponder, and while he was still hesitating whether to dodge or use other methods to dodge, he suddenly saw Nine Lives pounce on him. At the same time, after holding his body tightly, a big turn blocked in front of him, and then a strong force came from the other party, and the sound of 'snap' brought the two people who were caught off guard and did not stand firm to the cold ground.
