Chapter 43 Prepared
But among these people present, there were still some who were not surprised by the sudden jump of the assassin. Just when the knives of these two people slashed in front of Zhu Xuan, the two relatives behind him suddenly moved, and with just one stretch of their hand, they directly pulled the county magistrate who was so frightened that his body stiffened that he was a few feet back, and at the same time, these two people had quickly grabbed it, and in a flick of their hands, the same two short knives were already horizontal in front of them.
This change was too sudden, even more abrupt than the appearance of the two assassins, which made them have no time to change their tactics, and they could only watch as the two stabs they stabbed with all their strength were easily blocked by these two inconspicuous yamen officers.
No, not only did they block it, but at the same time as the four knives intersected, the two men had raised their legs almost simultaneously and slammed out, snatching the two assassins from the chest. Unguarded, the two Assassins were struck by the attack, and after a muffled grunt, they flew back sideways.
With two thuds, both assassins were back in the granary, their faces quickly showing panic. Although they still don't know why things have turned out the way they have been, or why their assassination has failed, one thing they know is that they are in a really bad situation now.
Sure enough, at this moment, there was already a loud shout outside: "Come on, quickly take these bold assassins!" This was said by one of the people who did it just now, but while speaking, the two of them did not move, still guarding Zhu Xuan's side left and right, but these words were said to the servants behind him who were still stunned.
The servants continued to be in a daze, but their eyes fell on Qiu Yang's body, waiting for his orders. Qiu Yang's face was also ugly, and he secretly complained in his heart, how could things become like this? Didn't everything be arranged earlier, and Zhu Xuan could be easily assassinated in this granary?
For this reason, he also deliberately brought a group of his cronies with him today, so that after the incident, no one would do anything bad. Results...... When did Zhu Xuan have two more inconspicuous but martial arts retinues around him? And looking at their appearance, it seems that they have been prepared for a long time, and they are even wary of themselves and others, otherwise why don't they continue to kill people in the warehouse, but give orders to their own people?
But now, Qiu Yang knew that he had no choice. It's impossible to get rid of Zhu Xuan today, not to mention the two who protected him behind him and followed him with vigilance, just the movement here was enough to attract Kuding in the granary, and there was no chance to do it at all. And if he wants to save himself, he can only act according to orders, or at least show the attitude of arresting the Assassin.
These things were complicated, but in fact, they only flashed in Qiu Yang's mind, and then he shouted: "Come on, take down these two assassins!" As he spoke, he rushed to the warehouse. It's just that while rushing forward, he has already given his subordinates a look, and let them bluff, and the ultimate goal is to let people out.
These two assassins must not fall into the hands of Zhu Xuan, otherwise the matter will be completely exposed!
"Bold thieves, don't catch them quickly!" The officers shouted loudly, seemingly ferociously pounced on the two Assassins who had just risen from the ground, but the movement looked a little sluggish, and the distance between people was large enough for the two Assassins to get out.
The two of them reacted quickly, and after seeing the flaw at a glance, they did not entangle, let out a low shout, and stabbed the slash with their knives to scare away the errand officers who surrounded them, and then they jumped out and ran towards the wall at the other end. As for the target in front of them, Zhu Xianling, they didn't dare to have any more ideas, because the two guys who could kick them away as soon as they looked at each other were still guarding Zhu Xuan.
Looking at the child's play of catching the assassin in front of him, Zhu Xuan, who had calmed down, was so gloomy that he could drip water. This time, he was completely convinced that Qiu Yang was one of those people, and he was one of the conspirators who wanted to kill him this time.
"Fortunately, Yang Chen warned last night, otherwise, this official would have died at the hands of these traitors today!" Zhu Xianling thought with palpitations, and his eyes swept over the two people who were still protecting him, with a little gratitude and happiness in his expression-
Just yesterday night, Yang Chen came to the county office again, met Zhu Xuan, and brought him a shocking news that someone would assassinate him when he visited the granary of the county today!
When he first heard this statement, Zhu Xuan was still very unimpressed: "How is this possible? This official is a court official, and no matter how bold those people are, they don't dare to do such things that are tantamount to rebellion. ”
"My lord, you are underestimating their guts, don't forget, Xiaguan is a living example. Since they dared to find an excuse to put me in prison before, and they wanted to kill me in prison, they would naturally kill you this time because they were afraid that the matter would be exposed! Yang Chen immediately retorted.
Subsequently, he told what he had overheard the night before about the revelation of Master Ji's dispatch by Zhu Xuan's side to investigate the construction of the Guancheng and the other party's attempt to make these fake people guilty.
At this moment, Zhu Xuan could only believe in this, which also made him even more angry: "These guys are really bold, but how should the official deal with it?" The first thing he thought of was to cancel the plan to go to the granary this time, so that he could ensure his own safety. But then, he denied this idea, and such countermeasures could only avoid it for a while, but could not solve the fundamental problem.
"In the opinion of the following officials, we might as well take this opportunity to take down the assassin who wants to be unfavorable to the adults, and use this as an opportunity to find the mastermind behind him through this assassin. In this way, I can catch the silverfish that have been entrenched in my county all along! Yang Chen quickly gave his thoughts: "Although in this way, the adults may be a little frightened, but as long as there are a few subordinates by their side, they can always protect you." ”
Speaking of which, Zhu Xuan is a good official who has the heart to get rid of traitors for the county, so after some muttering, he agreed.
So, there is today's scene. Yang Chen and Ding Yueqian disguised themselves early in the morning, and then followed him as Zhu County's entourage. Because of their humble status, Qiu Yang and the others didn't look carefully at their appearance at all, which made them confused to the end. And when the assassin suddenly moved, he quickly intervened and saved Zhu Xuan.
Seeing that it was impossible to do so, the two Assassins had only one thought left, and that was to get out as soon as possible. So after they had rushed out of the T-storehouse, they rushed straight towards the side wall, and behind them, a group of errand officers shouted and chased after them, seemingly trying hard, but in fact keeping a proper distance between the two sides, and did not dare to catch up with them.
At the same time, another group of Kudin ran in front of them shouting, and the movement on this side had quickly alarmed them, and they all pounced on them with clubs, guns and spears. They were much more agile than the officers, and were clearly bent on taking down the two Assassins.
Seeing a large number of people rushing in front of them, the two assassins felt even more panicked, and their movements rushed to the edge of the wall faster, and they climbed straight to the wall with their hands and feet. Obviously, the two of them had already figured out everything here, and even looked at the way out, and they fell quickly, and in a blink of an eye, they had already reached the wall, and then jumped straight out of the warehouse without hesitation.
"It's not good, the thieves want to escape, stop them!" When those officers saw this, they only shouted loudly behind them, and they didn't see that they had the intention of chasing after them, and they had the posture of seeing each other leave.
And those Kudins who came later because they were still far away, they could only sigh and couldn't catch up.
Qiu Yang, who pretended to be chasing the assassins, saw this, and he knew that as long as he got out of the wall of this granary, the two assassins would be able to get out quickly, and there would be no evidence for Zhu Xianling to get it, and he could even continue to use the rhetoric of his original idea to put the blame on those Mengren who were still living in the pavilion. Anyway, it's still the same sentence, if it's not my race, its heart will be different.
Zhu Xuan also saw this scene, and when he saw the two assassins wanting to leave, he couldn't help but feel anxious: "How can this be good?" Why do you always protect me, just take them down, it's ......" unconsciously complained that Yang Chen and the others were here.
"You ......" Ding Yueqian's face sank suddenly, and he wanted to reprimand this unknown official. In terms of identity, he is still the general manager of the dignified army, and his official rank is much higher than that of the other party's seven-rank county order, and it is already a great affection to be able to protect him as an entourage today, how can he stand this breath.
Fortunately, Yang Chen opened his mouth at the right time: "My lord, don't worry, since we have already known about the tricks of these thieves one step earlier, how can we only keep you safe?" ”
Zhu Xuan was stunned for a moment, then understood, and his face was also happy: "I see......
At the same time, the two Assassins, who had just jumped up and fell, let out an exclamation of surprise at the same time.
In their original plan, there was a small alley outside the granary wall, so as long as they jumped out, they could get out of the alley, and as long as they blended into the crowd outside, even if the people from the government chased them out, they would not be able to catch themselves.
But as a result, when they jumped out, they were surprised to find that there were actually five or six men squatting outside the wall, and the other party was waiting for them to fall.
"It'......s not good," the two assassins shouted in unison, and one of them couldn't control his body, and in the exclamation, he fell directly in front of the big man, and was directly pressed down by them, and took it down on the spot.
The other person, who was in mid-air, suddenly waved his hand and a rope flew out with a wave of his hand, which happened to wrap around the branch of a big tree not far ahead, and then he took advantage of this pull, and his body actually swung again, and fell diagonally towards the wall of a courtyard on the side......
