Chapter 36: It's a shame to die
The night in Wancheng should be peaceful.
However, tonight was not quiet.
Outside, people are running through the streets almost all the time.
Sitting in the room, Cao Shuo heard someone shouting on the street: "Search everywhere, and you must find the person who assassinated General Hu." ”
"He's injured and can't run far." Another voice shouted, "You guys go over there, you guys come with me!" ”
"Qin Nu didn't succeed, and we don't have much time." The footsteps walked away, and Cao Shuo said to Liu Shuang and Chen Wu: "Let them prepare, let's go to the official mansion." ”
"There are bandits everywhere." Liu Shuang said: "Go out at this time ......"
"All I want is to mess them up, and although it hasn't been as I thought, the opportunity has already come." Cao Shuo said: "The thief army is searching for assassins, and the guards of the official palace must be relaxed, and now is the right time to find the eldest brother and the guard." ”
Liu Shuang and Chen Wu retreated.
After a while, they came to Cao Shuo's room with six dead soldiers.
The Assassins were still being searched outside, and it was certainly impossible to light the lights in the room to avoid suspicion.
In the black light, Cao Shuo said to everyone: "You all know very well what we are doing in Wancheng, Wancheng is in chaos now, and tonight is the perfect time to do it." ”
No one said a word.
It was almost impossible to see each other in the dark of the room, but everyone could still feel the solemnity of the atmosphere.
Cao Shuo continued: "There is only one chance, you can't steal the corpses tonight, and it will be even more difficult to find them in the future!" ”
"Change into a night suit and check your weapons." He added, "Come with me when you're ready!" ”
A moment later, there were nine more black shadows on the streets of Wancheng.
Zhang Xiujun was searching for assassins everywhere, and Cao Shuo and the others had to find a place to hide every time they advanced, and only when the people outside were far away did they continue to jump in the direction of the official mansion.
After a few streets, he was rushing forward when Cao Shuo suddenly stopped.
"There's someone up ahead, hide it." He lowered his voice and ordered everyone to hide in the shadows.
Everyone hid in the alley next to the road, looking ahead vigilantly.
Sure enough, after a while, a figure appeared on the road.
The man staggered and carried a long sword, and looked back as he ran, looking like he was being chased.
The figure was getting closer and closer, and it was vaguely recognizable that it was a woman.
When she ran to the mouth of the alley, Cao Shuo suddenly jumped out, covered her mouth, and dragged her into the alley.
The man was taken aback by being suddenly hugged.
She didn't shout, but her wrist flipped over, trying to use her long sword to stab Cao Shuo.
Cao Shuo grabbed her wrist and said in a low voice, "Miss Qinnu, it's me." ”
was injured, and Qin Nu fled all the way with the support of the idea of survival.
Hearing Cao Shuo's voice, she suddenly felt relieved and fainted.
Helping her, Cao Shuo said to the two men on the side: "Take her back to our residence, and wait for me to go back to heal her." ”
"Childe, we still have important business." A man said, "Let's go, in case one of us doesn't have enough manpower......"
"Seven people, that's enough." Cao Shuo said: "It's a credit for you two to take her back." ”
He didn't follow Cao Shuo to the tavern during the day, and the two men didn't know what the relationship between him and Qin Nu was.
Although they were reluctant, they couldn't help but listen to the order, so they had to carry Qin Nu on their backs and the other to protect them, and return to the pavilion the same way.
Seeing their backs disappear into the night, Cao Shuo continued to move forward with a few people.
The closer he got to the official mansion, the less Cao Shuo found Zhang Xiujun.
As he walked, he waved his hand again and motioned for everyone to hide.
As soon as they hid in the corner, everyone heard a burst of swearing.
"If you don't do it, you will die if you stab two swords, and you won't have a chance to live happily once." A Zhang Xiujun scolded and said: "It's a pity that these two women are so good!" ”
"Isn't there another one alive?" Another Zhang Xiujun said: "Wait until she is caught, and the brothers will be happy first and then handed over to General Hu." ”
Zhang Xiujun came over with a total of eleven people, and it should be a team.
Cao Shuo saw that two of them were dragging a person who had not moved, obviously the two women who were killed in Zhang Xiujun's mouth!
"Ready to do it." He whispered to the people.
Everyone took out their daggers one after another, ready to rush out at any time.
Taking advantage of the other party's unpreparedness to sneak attack from behind, with seven against eleven, Cao Shuo was 100% sure that the battle would be resolved instantly.
The premise is that these people who came to Wancheng with him are all neat.
"Start from behind, you must be steady and ruthless, and you must not let them make a sound." Cao Shuo commanded in a low voice.
Everyone clenched their daggers and held their breath, waiting for the moment to strike.
Eleven Zhang Xiujun walked through the mouth of the alley where Cao Shuo and the others were hiding.
The last person passed by, and Cao Shuo tiptoed to follow.
Liu Shuang and six others followed.
Their steps were light, like cats hunting, and they didn't even make a sound.
Touching the back of the last Zhang Xiujun, Cao Shuo covered his mouth.
Before he could struggle, the dagger was stuck in his throat.
Although this Zhang Xiujun did not shout, he still made a slight noise, and the ten people in front of him realized that something was wrong and turned back one after another.
Before the six who walked behind turned their heads, they were killed by Liu Shuang and others covering their mouths one by one.
Seven enemy troops were brought down in an instant, and the other four Cao Shuo and others did not have time to solve it immediately.
Upon discovering that their companion had been killed, the first reaction of the four was to draw their swords.
Cao Shuo was the first to burst out, and when Zhang Xiujun's sword was only half drawn, the dagger stabbed out from the bottom up.
The sharp dagger pierced Zhang Xiujun's jaw, and he made a few small strange noises in his throat, and fell straight down.
As soon as the other three Zhang Xiujun pulled out their swords, they were held down by Liu Shuang and the other six people.
A dead soldier failed to cover Zhang Xiujun, who he controlled, and was bitten hard.
The dead man endured the pain and almost didn't scream.
Liu Shuangyi grabbed the embroidered army's hair bun, pulled it upwards violently, and the dagger slashed against his throat.
After finishing Zhang Xiujun, Cao Shuo asked everyone to drag the body to the alley.
"Change into their clothes." Cao Shuo commanded.
"Childe, look." Liu Shuang, who was examining the body, called him.
Cao Shuo asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's two women in the tavern." Liu Shuang said: "It's a pity that you die like this with big breasts and big butts!" ”
"Now is not the time to pity women, steal the body and return to Xudu, big breasts and big ass, how many do you want." Cao Shuo said: "Hurry up and change into the clothes and armor of the thief army, and follow me into the official mansion!" ”
Liu Shuang didn't delay any longer, and dragged a woman's body into the alley.
After a few moments, seven people came out of the alley.
They were wearing Zhang Xiujun's clothes and armor, and the first person was Cao Shuo.
