Chapter 449: It is not good to be a teacher
Shunqing Mansion, located not far from Chengdu, Sichuan, is the place where the Lingjiang River passes, and the water and land routes are very developed. It is not as prosperous as Chengdu Mansion, Li Zicheng has set up a palace in Shunqing Mansion since he conquered Sichuan, and he usually lives here.
Luzhou has recently been attacked by King Fu with his troops, but fortunately, Li Zicheng rushed back in time and quickly dispatched troops, and now it has basically stabilized. As long as the Dongjiang Army does not participate, the stability of Luzhou can be worryed.
After Li Zicheng fled back from Nanjing, he was able to catch his breath at this moment, and today he was transferred from Chengdu Mansion to Shunqing Mansion to live. He was accompanied by a large family, all of whom lived in the palace of Shunqing Mansion.
Tonight's Shunqing Mansion is exceptionally peaceful, and there is no trace of passers-by on the streets and alleys just after a palm light. The people went home early to sleep, although Shunqing Mansion is located in the inland of Sichuan and has not been implicated in the war in Luzhou, but with the arrival of Li Zicheng, the government still imposed a night ban early in the morning.
Outside the palace in the center of Shunqing Fucheng, groups of officers and soldiers were patrolling, and the gate of the palace was closed, and there was silence all around.
A black shadow on the roof walked swiftly like a ghost, and the steps under his feet were brisk without making a sound. This person was ordered to assassinate Li Zicheng's Adou, he had already sneaked into the city first, and he was taking advantage of the cover of the night to sneak towards the palace where Li Zicheng lived.
Adou's skills are agile, and infiltrating the heavily defended palace is just a piece of cake for him. After lingering outside the gate for a moment, Adou quickly found a suitable place to dive in, and jumped over with a dodge.
The high wall was not an obstacle at his feet, and Adou's feet quickly connected the dots on the wall, and he turned over directly and was already on the top of the wall. Squatting on the wall, Adou quickly glanced inside and found that this was a small courtyard, and he did not hesitate to turn over and go in.
Lurking in the dark, Adou didn't notice any guards in the courtyard, and carefully strung under the eaves, Adou found out that this was a place where people lived by the faint moonlight.
Adou suddenly felt relieved, and at this time, a sound of footsteps came, and then a voice muttered to himself: "At this time, I have to go to the night shift, and my life is hard!" ”
Hearing the strange noise, Adou had already retreated into the shadows, and soon saw a guy who looked like a family man walking towards the yard.
Adou watched coldly as the family walked into the house in the dark, and at this moment a sharp dagger with a cold light appeared in his hand. Once there is any abnormality in this family, Adou will definitely solve him as soon as possible.
Fortunately, this family member obviously didn't notice Adou's existence, he went into the house and tinkered for a while, and when he came out, he had changed into a thicker clothes. I heard him still muttering: "I still have to serve the lord on a cold day, how good it would be if I could sleep in the house, alas, ......"
With the sigh of the housekeeper, his figure quickly disappeared into the courtyard. Adou appeared from the darkness and stood in the middle of the courtyard, hesitated for a moment, and then raised his heel to the housekeeper.
After carefully sneaking all the way for a long time, Adou finally came to a palace-like building. I saw that the housekeeper was standing in front of the gate of the palace, and did not enter the house. Combined with the family's self-talk just now, Adou began to pay attention to this palace.
If he guessed correctly, there must be important people in this meeting, Adou hesitated, climbed onto the roof again, and carefully uncovered the tiles and peeked into the hall.
The hall was brightly lit, and there were three people talking inside, one of whom was Li Zicheng, who Adou was looking for.
Adou did not hesitate to untie the Wanshi bow from behind his back, and opened the bow and arrows to aim at Li Zicheng, who was unaware. But at this moment, a cold voice sounded a few meters behind him: "Put down the bow and arrow in your hand, otherwise, Lao Tzu will nail you here!" ”
Hearing the sound, Adou trembled slightly, he didn't need to turn around to look, he knew that this person who appeared quietly must be a master. Otherwise, with Adou's ability, he would definitely not let people get close to a few meters, and he would not be aware of it.
Before the arrow was aimed, Adou couldn't shoot it anymore, so he could only act according to the orders of the mysterious man behind him and slowly put down the bow and arrow. At the same time, Adou also slowly turned around to look, only to see a thin figure standing in the cold wind at the eaves five meters away.
"Who are you?" When Adou saw the bow and arrow in the mysterious man's hand in the faint moonlight, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
"I haven't asked you who you are, but you asked first, first tell me who you are, and whether the bow in your hand is a 10,000-stone bow?" The grim voice of the dark shadow sounded again.
Adou was very hesitant, but he also saw that this black shadow had obviously seen through his identity. After a moment of deep thought, Adou said coldly: "Yes, the bow and arrow in my hand is the Wanshi Bow." You are also the descendant of the Ten Divine Bows? ”
While answering the Black Shadow's question, Adou also began to guess the identity of the other party.
"Hehe, you're right, I didn't expect that a descendant of the Divine Bow would come to assassinate King Chuang. Say, "Whom are you commanded?" The dark shadow's cold voice intensified a lot.
A cold light flashed in Adou's eyes, and when he caught the black shadow talking, his body was slightly unstable. At this moment, Adou raised the bow and arrow in his hand without hesitation, and then shot it out without looking.
As soon as the arrow left the string, Adou's center of gravity fell, directly crushing the tiles under his feet, and then fell directly into the main hall.
The sudden movement frightened the three people in the hall, and in the panic, someone drew a sword to protect Li Zicheng. Someone started to see what was going on.
In the moment of chaos in the house, Adou had already seen Li Zicheng being protected behind him, and there was a big man in front of him holding a big knife, who was coldly watching his body fall.
If this continues, Adou knows that once he lands, he will attract a burst of sword light. Shooting enemies from a distance is his strength, and fighting at close range is his weakness, and he can't think about it so much in his head.
Adou immediately began to bend his bow and arrows again, and the target was the big man who was looking at him coldly and would rush up and cut down at any time.
Seeing that Adou was able to fall in his body at the same time, he was also able to bend his bow and shoot arrows, and the big man's face changed greatly. It's a pity that his reaction is still a beat slower, and before he can dodge, the bow and arrow in his hand have already left the string.
"Poof......" The sharp arrow went straight to the heart of the big man, and the big man still moved his body a little at the critical moment.
In the end, the arrow did not hit the heart of the big man, but it was only a fraction of a second.
"There are assassins......" At the same time, two loud shouts echoed through the main hall.
