Chapter 53: Escape

Now that the first group of people has failed, these archers buried in the shadows have naturally lost their chance, and it is better to come out now than wait for Liu Cong's personal soldiers to search for them. Although the alley is small, it also helped Liu Cong. Originally, the first group of people, three swords, two archers, and a beautiful woman were perfect. Now there are only six archers left, and Liu Cong feels that he was quite decisive in his attack just now, otherwise with so many people, he would really be unable to escape.

Fight, you can't just die! Liu Cong had experienced a hundred battles in his previous life, but this was the first time he had faced such a threat alone! Since people are prepared, they only have one fight left!

The five archers came to the alley to take a look, obviously a little unconvinced, Liu Cong started so quickly! One of them winked at the crowd, and it was clear that they were preparing for the six to disperse. Two of them quickly drew arrows and shot them, then quickly ran to the other end of the alley. The other four also drew their bows and swished after the two ran out...... Sou......

The first six arrows did not hurt Liu Cong, but two arrows directly pierced the body in front of Liu Cong, and the arrows stuck to Liu Cong's chest. In desperation, Liu Cong had no choice but to let go of the hand covering his waist, barely holding the corpse, and waving his knife with his right hand to resist the incoming arrows.

Several archers quickly got into their positions, and the rate of fire became faster and faster!

Liu Cong soon found out that these people were not gangsters at all, but were born in the military, and they were very skilled in archery and arrow-pulling. If it goes on like this, I will definitely not be able to hold on, and I will have to find a way to break out of the encirclement.

Several archers were obviously more skilled than the previous ones, and several of them fired arrows that almost covered Liu Cong's upper and lower three roads. If you want to rush out, you have to face the dilemma of leaving a part of your back for the bow and arrows wherever you go.

Liu Cong estimated that he was about thirty steps away from the entrance of the alley, that is, forty to forty-five meters, and if he ran empty-handed for about five seconds, these people would definitely stop him, and the six people stood so scattered, it was estimated that each person could send two arrows. If you don't get entangled, you may face more arrows!

Liu Cong looked at the corpse in front of him, he was much smaller than himself, and if he wanted to run out, he could only carry this corpse as a backing. At that moment, he turned around, put the corpse back to back with himself, held it in his left hand, and ran towards the alley where the archer appeared with a knife in his right hand......

When Liu Cong woke up again, it was already noon the next day, looking at Cai Lin, Zhuge Liang and other familiar faces, Liu Cong knew that he was not dead.

Liu Cong did not die, it was his choice that saved him, two of the six archers were cut by him, and he was hit by four arrows, but fortunately, only the dagger in the abdomen was fatally wounded, and after running dozens of steps, he finally alarmed the people on the street, and Liu Cong couldn't remember what happened next.

Seeing Liu Cong wake up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"My lord, my subordinates are derelict in their duties! Subordinates damn it! Seeing Huang Quan's eyes that wanted to kill, the new captain of the guard, Liu Yin and Liu Yuqi, knelt on the ground, begging for mercy. The lord was assassinated, and he, the captain of the personal soldiers, was naturally blamed!

"Yuqi, get up, it's none of your business, it's my carelessness."

"Thank you, lord!" In panic, Yu Qi barely stood up, still not daring to look directly at Huang Quan.

"How's it going, did anyone catch it?" Liu Cong turned his head to Huang Quan.

"Lord, you better have a good rest, the assassins have all been caught...... Liu Cong is out of danger, if he doesn't wake up, Huang Quan will have the heart to pick up the skin and sleep the flesh. Although when Huang Quan served as Liu Cong's personal guard captain, Liu Cong also had a major incident, but Huang Quan believed that this time was completely a dereliction of duty on the part of Yu Cong.

"It's okay, I can afford it, you tell me first, what's going on?" Liu Cong felt that he was very wronged, these people arranged a game so carefully, fortunately they entered the alley, and the enemy's bow and arrow advantage was not brought into play, otherwise the consequences were really unimaginable.

"Lord, you better have a good rest, and leave the rest to Liang and Lord Huang." Zhuge Liang was also very worried when he saw Liu Cong, who had just woken up, and was about to ask Huang Quan.

"Yes, yes......" The others also persuaded Liu Cong to rest at ease, after all, yesterday's injury was quite serious in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Alas...... I'm really fine...... Or, okay, you guys go investigate first, I'll have a good rest......" Looking at the eyes of the people in the room full of concern, Liu Cong no longer insisted. After all, he was seriously injured, lost too much blood and fell into a coma, and the matter of investigating the case would indeed not be solved for a while.

When everyone withdrew, Cai Lin lay on the edge of Liu Cong's bed and cried. Tears flowed down the original tear stains. This woman must have cried a lot last night, Liu Cong also regretted it a little when she looked at it, if she hung up like that yesterday, it would be a pity for this pretty woman.

"Okay, Lin'er, it's my husband's mistake, isn't this okay, don't cry, it's not good to cry, it's not good to cry, go get me something to eat."

"Well......" Although there are a lot of things to say to Liu Cong, Cai Lin also knows that Liu Cong urgently needs to replenish his strength now, so he got up and beckoned the servants outside the door to prepare food for Liu Cong.

Looking at Cai Lin's elegant back, Liu Cong told himself that he couldn't be so weak, he would dominate the world in the future, and he didn't know how many enemies there would be and how many such assassinations he would face. I've got to figure out a way.

In addition to the guards around you, soft armor for self-defense seems to be essential. And the soft armor may not be able to defend against the strong bow, if the enemy uses a strong crossbow to sneak attack in the dark, it is even more dangerous, and the first thing that Liu Cong of the harmonious future generations thought of was naturally body armor, which was evolved from ancient armor. You can't walk around the city in armor.

If you can add a body armor to the outer robe that is like a harmonious future generation, then you will not be afraid of the enemy's sneak attack. As long as he dodges the sneak attack, Liu Cong is confident that he still has a good chance of winning in hand-to-hand combat against several people. It's just that there is no aramid in this ancient world, do you have to wear an iron plate?

"Husband...... Drink porridge. ”

"Oh......" Seeing Cai Lin's concerned eyes, Liu Cong came back to his senses and smiled apologetically at Cai Lin.

"Husband, what are you thinking, so distracted?" Cai Lin asked with concern.

"It's nothing, it's just curious, who hates me so much that they want to kill me...... Lin'er, who do you say it will be? “

"It's hard to say this, you killed the mountain bandits in Zigui, killed Wu Ju in Jiangling, and ...... in Xiangyang" Cai Lin counted what Liu Cong had done during this time, and wanted to try to give Liu Cong some hints.

"Xiangyang...... Liu Cong sighed thoughtfully, hoping it wasn't Xiangyang. Liu Cong really doesn't have the energy to fight with the gang in Xiangyang now.

"Lin'er is just guessing, you better take care of your injuries, Lord Huang is so smart that he will definitely be able to find out the manipulator behind the scenes as soon as possible."

"I hope so, but you have to worry about me, and you have to be more careful when you go out in the future."

"Well, but Lin'er usually goes to her cousin, that is, to help the nurse take care of those orphans, and she should be fine."

"Then be careful, by the way, the nurse is fine, did you tell her about me?"

"She already knew that there was a mess in the house at that time, and if it weren't for my cousin-in-law and cousin, I really wouldn't have been able to deal with it, and I didn't seem to have done anything but cry. The nurse has just returned, saying that she has come to see you in the evening. ”

"Send someone to inform her old man, she doesn't have to come to see me at night, she has to talk about it later." She's tired of taking care of those orphans, but those children are still obedient, right? How about Liaohua? ”

"It's all right, the boys are sent to school, the nurse has bought a servant, and Miss Wenrui, the sister of General Wen, often goes to help."

"Wen Rui?"

"Yes, Miss Wen admires you very much, and she cares about you very much, and after hearing that you had an accident, she also cried for a while, and followed General Wen back to her house very late, and came to see you early this morning, and was very disappointed to see that you didn't wake up."

"Hehe, I'm her savior, even if she still has a little conscience." Liu Cong heard the smell in Cai Lin's words, so he smiled awkwardly, opened his mouth and took a bite of the porridge that Cai Lin fed, but he didn't dare to look Cai Lin's eyes.

The careful Cai Lin also noticed the change in Liu Cong's expression, so she changed the topic: "Liao Hua's kid said yesterday that he was going to search for assassins with Huang Quan, you see that so many people are concerned about you, you can't be so careless in the future......"
