Chapter 6: The Sting (Part 2)

They weren't coming at me! As soon as he jumped out of the carriage, Wang Xun immediately discovered a strange reality. The target of the sneak attacker was not him, but Bai Jingzhi.

Kill a courtesan with three masked men on horseback, and use crossbow arrows? Who would do such a stupid thing! Before he could continue to guess the cause and effect, the three assassins had already ridden their horses and rushed over, "Little Noodles, stay away, there's nothing to do with you here!" (Note 1)

"You're the face! Your whole family is raised by someone else! Wang Xun's heart was on fire, and he poked out half of his head from behind the carriage door and scolded, "Using the Fubo crossbow to plot against an unarmed woman, what can you three be if you are not the head?" ”

Before the scolding stopped, both the enemy and us were startled. "Fubo crossbow, they actually use a Fubo crossbow for cavalry! God, thankfully they didn't shoot accurately. Wang Xun was shocked, raised the car door and rushed towards the other party, lest he leave time for others to reload the crossbow arrows.

"Kill him!" The three Assassins were horrified. The Fubo crossbow is a crossbow arrow specially equipped for the cavalry in the big **, which is well-made and has a range close to the foot bow. It is strictly forbidden to possess the homes of ordinary people, and if the brave people steal and sell them from the army, they will be caught by the government and will be charged with rebellion!

For these people, it doesn't matter whether they plot a rebellion or not, it is a big sin to implicate the owner behind it. They looked at each other, and they immediately prioritized. Two people, one left and one right, outflanked Wang Xun. The third person went around the official road and chased in circles towards Bai Jingzhi's carriage.

"Think beautifully!" Wang Xun shouted loudly, suddenly leaned over and turned around while running, his arm was half a circle, and he used the carriage door in his left hand as a hidden weapon to throw it at the war horse chasing Bai Jingzhi. followed by a sudden force of his legs, and the whole person turned from vertical to horizontal, and plunged down the official road.

After more than four months of hard training, the results were fully realized at this time. The carriage door was used as a hidden weapon by Wang Xun, rotating all the way against the ground, and cut directly to the hind leg heel of the war horse chasing Bai Jingzhi. How could the poor beast withstand such a big impact, with a miserable scream, he rolled over and pressed the master on his back under him.

The remaining two assassins hadn't yet figured out what had happened to their companion when they saw Wang Xun turn around and flee sideways. He pocketed his mount and chased him down. During the run, Wang Xun suddenly began to turn again, still with his legs suddenly exerting force, turning horizontally and vertically, and running towards White Horse Fort along the route flush with the official road.

"Boy, where to run!" The two Assassins gave hot pursuit, their swords swinging in a cold glow in the morning sun. Two legs can't outrun four legs no matter what, Wang Xun has no choice but to turn around and fight. "Dang" and "Dang" relied on his previous solid basic skills and the actual combat skills he had trained in the last few months of hard work, and he blocked the opponent's two attacks one after another. The horizontal knife in his hand couldn't withstand such a big momentum, and it broke in the middle, and most of the blade flew into the air.

With only half of the dagger in his hand left, Wang Xun was not so stupid, standing in place and letting the family cut in vain. Taking advantage of the other party's rotation of the mount, he spread his legs and fled along the official road towards Chang'an City.

At this time, there were already sporadic pedestrians on the official road. But the incident happened suddenly, and no one could figure out who was killing whom. In line with the principle of hiding in the event of a disaster, they fled to the fields by the roadside. The entire official road became empty in an instant, making it impossible for Wang Xun to find someone to pile in.

"Help!" He shouted loudly, hoping that someone would come forward, even if it was to throw a stone at him and interfere with the Assassin's vision. Who would have thought that it would be okay not to shout, as soon as they shouted, people ran faster, up the trees, drilled into the snow, and after a few breaths, there was not even a superfluous shadow on both sides of the official road.

Listen to the sound of the horse's hooves behind him getting closer and closer, closer and closer. Wang Xun was also ruthless all of a sudden. He bit half of the knife in his mouth, and looked at an old elm tree on the side of the road that was hugging and thick and running wildly. His legs jumped up and down under the roots, his arms hooked and stretched out horizontally and pulled down, bending his arms with the rebounding force of the branches, tucking his abdomen, turning over, all in one go. Before the Assassin could catch up, the whole person was already sitting on the branch.

The change was so sudden that the two Assassins had no time to tighten the reins of their horses, so they had to rush along the trunk of the tree. Seeing one of them, Wang Xun flew down from the tree, hugged the opponent's waist with one hand, and turned over with the other hand and strangled him with a half-cut blade. "Poof!" Blood immediately spurted all over his face. Half of the unfortunate assassin's neck was cut off, and only a layer of oily skin was left between his head and body, and he immediately fell from the saddle of his warhorse.

"Don't run, look at the knife!" With his legs between the saddles, Wang Xun instigated his mount to attack the last place. It's not because of his boldness, but because the other party is less than half a foot away in front of him, if he is given the opportunity to turn the horse's head, he will hold half a horizontal knife, or he will only be chopped.

The last assassin could guess the ghost idea in Wang Xun's heart, and suddenly turned around, and saw a bloody man dancing a "dagger" and running with him with a horse title and a horsetail, and he was so frightened that he let out a miserable scream, slammed the horse and pedaled, and fled in the wilderness.

"Where to escape, quickly tie up and arrest it!" Wang Xun didn't expect that he could make the fake come true, and he chased after his mount. Kankan chased more than forty steps, and saw the mount that he had previously put down with the car door as a hidden weapon hissing beside the official road. On horseback, the rider was crushed by the mount with one leg and half of his face planted in the hard earth, and even if he was not dead for a while, he had to live on crutches for the rest of his life.

Seeing that another companion had also been poisoned by the enemy, the Assassin who fled for his life was even more terrified. Throwing the horizontal knife on the side of the road, he raised his hands high and begged for mercy, "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'm just doing what I'm told." Do what you are told! ”

"Don't run, don't run, I won't kill you!" Wang Xun was surprised and delighted, grinning and continuing to babble. This kind of audacity is actually embarrassed to be an assassin? I haven't seen him for a few months, and the gangsters in Chang'an City are really getting more and more unproductive.

"Don't run, I don't run!" The assassin raised his hands in the air, and his cry for mercy was already in his voice, "If I don't hold the reins, the mount won't stop." Grandpa, don't chase it, can't I beg you? ”

"What a piece of rubbish!" Wang Xun couldn't cry or laugh, and scolded, "Be a guy who no one wants in the capital!" ”

After scolding, he quickly scanned the side of the saddle with his eyes, and sure enough, he found a crossbow of General Fubo, a neat box of crossbow arrows.

Dropping the "dagger", he grabbed the crossbow and fiddled with both hands. It's no wonder that several Assassins couldn't remember to use a second after firing a single shot, and this short crossbow for cavalry was very difficult to rewind during galloping. That is, Wang Xun has a lot of strength, and he has been used to riding horses since he was a child, and he can still fiddle with his free hands. If you change to someone with poor strength or unskilled riding, before you can catch the crossbow arrow, the person will already fall under the horse's belly.

After a few breaths, Wang Xun re-established the crossbow arrow. With your arms raised, aim at the Assassin in front of you. "You look back and see what it is? Hold on to the reins and dismount. Otherwise, I'll shoot you with a crossbow arrow! ”

Hearing this, the assassin's voice begging for mercy became more and more poignant, "Spare your life, spare your life!" But his legs continued to beat the stirrups, and he refused to stop to be a prisoner.

Bai Jingzhi's carriage couldn't run far, and Wang Xun didn't have more time to toss with the assassin on the road, so he snapped the mechanism with his finger and shot the crossbow arrow. At a distance of less than a kilometer, even those who have not been trained will not shoot away. The Assassin in front of him fell from his horse and rolled on the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, and was unable to live.

The first time I saw someone die in front of me. Wang Xun's heart twitched violently, the taste of blood in his nostrils suddenly worsened, and he opened his mouth to spit out what he had eaten in the morning. A mouthful of undigested food squirted, and his snot and tears flowed down at the same time. But he didn't dare to delay any longer, so he wiped his hand on his face, turned his mount, and ran towards the assassin who had been crippled by his horse.

The last person who can ask the truth, if the last one dies, his own will wait to be in prison. The Wang family's death-free gold medal may not work, and I'm afraid that it will not be easy for Fourth Uncle Feng to come forward. While scaring himself, Wang Xun jumped off his mount. Reach out and push the horse that was smashed by the door and hurt its hind legs.

The trained war horses all know a little about human nature, and when they saw Wang Xun coming to the rescue, they worked hard to move their bodies. The man and the horse used up the last of each other's strength, and finally moved the assassin who was pressing under the horse. Fortunately, there were still ups and downs in this person's chest, and when Wang Xun saw this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and reached out to grab the other party's scarf.

"Don't move!" At this moment, a hoarse voice sounded among the passers-by who had been scattered before on the side of the official road.

Wang Xun was slightly stunned, and his outstretched hand immediately changed direction to grab the assassin's fallen horizontal knife. Afraid of causing a misunderstanding, the bold passerby quickly added, "Since he covers his face, he definitely doesn't want people to recognize his identity." If you're not sure how to deal with him, you might as well pretend to be confused! ”

"How?" Wang Xun's mind has never been slow, and after listening to the other party's words, he immediately dispelled the idea of revealing the identity of the assassin. I've had enough trouble lately. Even if he hid, he kept coming to the door. These stupid assassins may not be able to help themselves, but the masters behind them must not be easy to mess with.

The three of them from the Western Regions got excited and robbed and killed a Tang woman in broad daylight. As a man from the Tang Dynasty, when the road is uneven, it is your duty to draw a knife to help! "Dare to love, since the battle just began, the guy who gave Wang Xun the idea has seen everything in his eyes, but he shrank on the side of the road and refused to come forward to help, "Now that the responsibility has been fulfilled, the rest of the things will be handed over to the person who can manage it." I haven't asked anything, I haven't seen anything, and I just don't think this matter has anything to do with me! ”
