Chapter 19: The Assassins, See the Assassins Yet
Xu Anping was struggling to separate the crowd in front of him when he suddenly heard Huan'er's scream. "Ahh Little master! Miss, they took the little master. ”
Deng Xiaoke's face was pale and completely at a loss. When she saw Deng Jiu rushing past her, she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her heart eased slightly.
Xu Anping walked quickly, and when he saw someone blocking in front of him, he didn't stop, and directly kicked their legs or calves with his toes, and dodged and missed when their bodies leaned outward. Even so, because there were too many people on the street, Xu Anping still couldn't get closer to the other party. At this time, he put his hand into his arms, took out a handful of copper coins and a few pieces of broken silver, and threw them into the air in front of him, shouting loudly: "Whoever scattered the silver has smashed Lao Tzu's head!" ”
Everyone in front of them was in a hurry, all of them squatted down or leaned down to the ground to look for silver, and the crutch carrying Deng Wenzhao was squeezed in the middle of the road, standing alone. Xu An jumped on the plain, stepped on a man's back, and stepped the back of another person who was a foot away, and of course there was a curse from behind. Then he crossed again, and when his body fell, he had already arrived in front of the abductor, and first smashed the abductor's accomplice with a punch to the point that his mouth and nose were bleeding, and he fainted to the ground unconscious, and when he turned around, the man had already pulled out the dagger and put it on Deng Wenzhao's neck, and a trace of blood was faint.
"Don't come here, I'll kill him with a knife if you come over again." The kidnapper was not afraid, and said viciously. Deng Wenzhao's eyes were closed at this time, his lips were biting, and he had already fainted with fright.
"Brother, there is something to discuss. If you want to get rich, I have a few dozen taels of silver here. Even if you sell this kid to the beggars, you won't be able to get a few bucks." Xu Anping retracted his hand into his sleeve, and saw that the abductor's eyes did not show a greedy gaze but a smile, and he felt that this matter was not simple.
"If you want money, you will get it yourself, it's not uncommon for you to have three melons and two dates. This kid has fine skin and tender meat, and he is sold to Goulan as a rabbit master, and I believe that many people will be willing to patronize it. If you want me to let go of your little master, kowtow to him three times before anything else. The kidnapper laughed and stepped back.
Xu Anping's face was angry, his face showed a look of struggle, and then he bent his knees as if resigned to his fate. When the kidnapper was laughing proudly, Xu Anping flicked his fingers, and a piece of silver weighing two taels hit the crutch's hand holding the dagger. The crutch was in pain, and subconsciously let go of the dagger, and before he could hold it again, Xu Anping had already rushed over and punched him heavily in the lower abdomen. The crutch was speechless, curled up on the ground like a shrimp, and writhed his body incessantly.
Xu Anping snatched Deng Wenzhao, stepped on the hand of the crutch with his left foot, and pushed hard, listening to the crackling sound of several broken bones, knowing that if he wanted to hold the knife with his hands, he could only be reincarnated. He didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly hugged Deng Wenzhao and struggled to squeeze through the crowd to find Deng Xiaoke. Seeing Huan'er standing in the middle of the road looking at him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and before he had time to wipe the sweat on his forehead, he saw Deng Xiaoke, who was standing not far behind Huan'er, being dragged back by two sturdy men with his mouth and nose covered. Xu Anping's eyes were torn, and he threw the unconscious Deng Wenzhao to Huan'er, and no longer had any spare strength, but directly ran into the pedestrians on the street and rushed towards the two men. He hated this gang of bandits very much, so he ran to the front and pierced the plum blossom needle between his fingers directly into the spleens of the two sturdy men, and when the two looked down at their bodies because of the sudden severe pain, they snatched Deng Xiaoke and turned around and left. The pedestrians around didn't realize that something was wrong, but just drank a few times Xu Anping recklessly.
When Xu Anping helped Deng Xiaoke to walk to Huan'er's side with the flow of people, there were a few screams behind her, and she said in a low voice: "Huan'er, take the little master and leave quickly, it's dangerous here!" After saying that, he walked ahead and led the way. Because he was still holding Deng Xiaoke, the two were like intimate lovers who disregarded customs, provoking the people around them to point fingers. When the group walked into the alley with few people, Xu Anping put a piece of ice skating that had been folded off the eaves and applied it to Deng Xiaoke's face, and the latter woke up after making a "bang" sound.
After Deng Xiaoke listened to Xu Anping talk about tonight's events, he was suddenly afraid. She really couldn't imagine what kind of torture she would suffer if she fell into the hands of those people, and after a few cold wars, she hurried to go home.
Xu Anping knew that tonight's encounter should not be accidental, and the matter was far from over.
When I got home, it was past my time. Deng Xiao's parents were worried, so they didn't say much, but went back to the room to rest. Xu Anping didn't dare to relax, he didn't go back to the room, but took off his coat, only a black underwear, and his face was covered with a cloth, standing in a shadow outside the backyard wall and closing his eyes to recuperate. When the time came, the entire Deng family compound was quiet, but Xu Anping's spirit became more and more excited, and he had a premonition that the other party was coming soon. Sure enough, another half an hour passed, and when the night was at its deepest, Xiao Hei suddenly bit a few times. Then a small object was thrown into the courtyard, and then the whole courtyard fell silent again. Xu Anping opened his eyes and began to move slowly towards the place where the sound came from, he suddenly stopped, and saw a dark figure standing on the branch of a tree in front of him, as if he was about to jump onto the courtyard wall.
Xu Anping took out Uncle Lin's poisoned dagger, and gently moved his steps to approach slowly. As soon as the assassin jumped up and onto the courtyard wall, he also sped up and kicked the trunk of the tree hard, stabbing the man in the shin. The assassin obviously did not expect someone to ambush him, but although he was not shocked, he quickly moved a few steps to the left with his legs, and directly abandoned the task and jumped off the courtyard wall to escape. Seeing this, Xu Anping kicked the ground with his left leg, turned his body to the right, twisted a turn, and slashed the dagger at the back of the man's heart. The assassin was also a ruthless character, as if he had long eyes in the back of his head, he raised the dagger in his right hand and blocked Xu Anping's dagger, his body retreated sharply and crashed into Xu Anping's arms, and his left leg kicked his left leg hard.
Xu Anping knew that it was terrible, his body twisted his waist to the left, his left leg moved backwards, and he retreated with a dagger in his right hand, changing the split into a thorn. The two exchanged a few tricks, and the assassin saw that he could not take down this person in a short time, and was worried that it would be difficult to support himself if he caused a movement, so he used his strength to retreat after a block, and after opening up the distance, he was ready to escape. Xu Anping also had this concern, he was afraid that he would wake up the Deng family and be found to be pregnant with kung fu, which he couldn't explain. When he saw that the assassin was about to flee, he chased forward, and saw that the other party had climbed the outer wall of the Deng family's mansion, and with a flick of the throwing knife in his left hand, he saw the man's body pause for a moment, and then he turned over and disappeared. Xu Anping stood by the wall for a moment, he had already determined that the assassin just now was a member of the Blood Hand Alliance, so there should be nothing more tonight, so he dragged his tired body back to the room to rest. The room was still snoring.
The next day, the weather was fine, and the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival was still in the courtyard, but it was not as noisy as yesterday. Huan'er ran over to find Xu Anping, and said eagerly: "Deng Jiu Deng Jiu, come with me!" Without waiting for Xu Anping to react, he pulled his sleeve and ran to the backyard.
After Xu Anping arrived, he saw Xiao Hei lying motionless on the ground, only his belly was slightly undulating, while Deng Xiaoke was standing next to him sobbing in a low voice, and kept wiping his tears. He opened Xiao Hei's mouth and looked at it, and saw most of the meat buns left next to him, and he knew it in his heart, and said: "Miss, Xiao Hei should have eaten something dirty, you let Xiao Huan go to the stove room to get some vegetable oil and pour it into its mouth, and wait for it to spit things out." ”
"Really? That's great! Deng Jiu, thank you so much! You saved me and my brother last night, and I don't know how to thank you. If you have anything to say in the future, just say it. Thinking of what happened last night, Deng Xiaoke still has palpitations.
Xu Anping looked at the pretty face in front of him, which was usually full of heroism and liveliness, and there was a look of fear at this time, and he felt distressed for a while. He couldn't say anything, and replied in a low voice, "Protecting the eldest lady from harm is what I should do." ”
After Deng Xiaoke listened, a feeling suddenly appeared in his heart that he had never felt before, some sweetness, some peace of mind, and some expectations and longings.
