Chapter 871: Moonlight Murder Night
With the efforts of Changsun Sheng and Li Jing, Yu entered the military camp without much trouble at the third watch, put down the two Turkic soldiers guarding the camp where Yang Qin lived, and infiltrated the camp.
There was a slight snoring sound in the tent, and the eldest grandson Sheng followed the sound and walked to the bed first, stretched out his hand to cover the mouth of the person who was still sleeping on the bed, and turned around and ordered Li Jing to light the fire folds he carried with him, and asked him to come close to identify whether this person was Liu Jushi.
The person who fell asleep on the bed suddenly had his mouth and nose covered, and he couldn't breathe, so he naturally woke up, and looked at the two uninvited guests in front of him with a pair of eyes open and uncertain, and wanted to call people but couldn't call them, making a babbling sound.
Li Jing approached the man with the lit folds of fire, and through the faint light, he saw a thin and pale face that was completely different from Liu Jushi, and then shook his head at Changsun Sheng.
"Yang Qin?" Changsun Sheng asked the man in a low voice, and when he saw the man nodding, he raised his knife and was about to cut off his head.
"General, slow." Li Jing stretched out his hand and grabbed Changsun Sheng and reminded him, "I expect that Yang Qin is probably not this kid's real name, and it will not be too late to kill him when he asks for his real name and identity." ”
Changsun Sheng nodded, forced the man with a knife, and threatened him: "If you dare to shout and shout, you will be killed immediately." As he spoke, he let go of the hand covering Yang Qin's mouth.
Yang Qin gasped for breath, peeked at the two people in front of him, and suddenly plucked up his courage and asked, "Who are you?" ”
Li Jing had a little more heart, and replied first: "What you want us to be, we are what we are." Tell me your real name! ”
"You, are you from Chang'an, or from Jiankang?" Yang Qin didn't get any information from Li Jing's answer, so he had to ask further.
"Jiankang came, what about it?" Li Jing glanced at Sun Sheng, and deceived Yang Qin.
"Jiankang is here, why do you want to be sneaky?" Although Yang Qin was still suspicious of Li Jing's words, both Changsun Sheng and Li Jing could hear it, and his tone of voice suddenly became a lot tougher, and the eyes staring at Changsun Sheng also became fierce.
"Tell me who you are, damn it, Changsun Sheng from Chang'an has also arrived at Dujin Mountain, how can you be less careful?" Li Jing also replied unceremoniously.
"Who am I? I'm Gu Sheng. Yang Qin spoke in a higher tone, and even dared to raise his hand and pull out the knife that Changsun Sheng forced him to stop.
"Are you Gu Sheng, Gu Zi'er's younger brother? What are the credentials? Although Li Jing had never seen Gu Sheng, he had heard of him, and when he heard that this Yang Qin revealed Gu Sheng's true identity, he was really taken aback, and deliberately asked more information from his mouth, so he questioned him.
Changsun Sheng was worried that he had been delayed in the tent for a long time, and once the Turkic soldiers who were on patrol at night discovered the traces of the two, it would be a big deal, so he put the knife on Gu Sheng's neck again, and then asked, "Who is the person from Jiankang who you are waiting for here?" What's next for you? ”
"You, you're not ......" Gu Sheng was only halfway through his words, when suddenly, a flying knife flew from outside the tent and was nailed to Gu Sheng's heart, Gu Sheng snorted and fell forward to the ground.
Almost at the same time that someone outside the tent threw a flying knife to kill Gu Sheng, Li Jing had already jumped out of the tent, wanting to catch the person who was stabbed outside the tent, but saw that there was no one outside the tent, and even a figure was gone.
Changsun Sheng leaned over to probe Gu Sheng's snort, and when he saw that he was dead, he picked up a knife and cut off his head, and then reached out to pull out the flying knife nailed to his heart, walked out of the camp tent, and beckoned Li Jing to leave the barracks and return to the sleeping tent.
"General, this is going to be ......" Li Jing was puzzled for a moment that Changsun Sheng would cut off and bring back his head after Gu Sheng's death, and as soon as he returned to the sleeping tent, he asked.
"Naturally, it will be handed over to Yongyu Lu and Yuwen Panruo tomorrow. Hey, did you just see the person who stabbed Gu Sheng with a flying knife? ”
Li Jing shook his head and replied thoughtfully: "This person should be the person from Jiangnan who Gu Sheng was waiting for, I didn't expect this person's martial arts to be so high, I almost left the camp at the same time as Gu Sheng's knife fell, and I still didn't see his shadow, could it be ......"
"What is it? Can you guess who that person is? While putting Gu Sheng's head into a leather bag, Changsun Sheng took out the flying knife that killed Gu Sheng from his arms and fumbled in his hand, and asked Li Jingdao.
"The general has heard of the 'Goose's Nest', right? I suspect that Gu Sheng is also from the 'Wild Goose's Nest', and based on the fact that his two elder sisters, Gu Pan'er and Gu Zi'er, are both big leaders in the 'Wild Goose's Nest', Gu Sheng's status in the 'Wild Goose's Nest' is probably not low. dared to kill him, and his skills were so agile, as far as the younger generations knew, there were only two people: Xiao Rushui, the great protector of the 'Wild Goose's Nest', and Zhang Zhongjian, the personal bodyguard of the first big leader. And according to the fact that Gu Sheng revealed that the person he was waiting for was from Jiankang, it was inferred that most of the people who killed Gu Sheng with a flying knife outside the tent were Zhang Zhongjian. Oh, I see. Li Jing said, his eyes lit up.
What he actually thought of was that Zhang Zhongjian went north from Jiankang, not simply thinking about the relationship between men and women with Feng Xiaoxi, and wanted to rob Feng Xiaoxi from his own hands, but had a bigger plan: to meet with Gu Sheng outside the pass and persuade the Turks to raise troops to attack Sui.
Changsun Sheng has always focused on Turkic affairs, and lacks understanding of Jiangnan affairs, although he also knows that the "Wild Goose's Nest" is a secret spy agency before the fall of Nan Chen, but he does not know much about the people and things in it. Moreover, he and Li Jing successfully killed Gu Sheng, who was known as Yang Qin, tonight, and tomorrow they would show Gu Sheng's head to Yongyu Lu and Yuwen Panruo, which was enough to shock the Turks, and it could be called a great success, and they had no intention of asking Li Jing about the "Wild Goose's Nest" and Zhang Zhongjian, and listened to the sound of the gong outside the tent, so he told Li Jing to hurry up and sleep, so that he could nourish his spirit and give the Turks a big surprise after dawn.
Li Jing's mind is different from that of Changsun Sheng, because he had fought with Zhang Zhongjian not long ago, he knew that his martial arts were slightly better than his own, and he was worried that Zhang Zhongjian would come to assassinate Changsun Sheng before dawn; The second also unexpectedly learned that Yang Qin was not his sworn brother Liu Jushi, and he had a question in his heart: Where is Liu Jushi now? Why did Gu Sheng's pseudonym Yang Qin, and Gao Ying, the prime minister of the DPRK and China, who was guarding the annexed state, go to the imperial court and believe that it was Liu Jushi who lobbied the Turks to raise troops to attack Sui? Therefore, after Changsun Sheng fell asleep, Li Jing only sat on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, while thinking about how to find out the life, death and whereabouts of his righteous brother Liu Jushi, while listening attentively to the nearby movements, beware of Zhang Zhongjian coming to assassinate.
Just like that, before I knew it, it was already bright outside the tent. Li Jing was about to open his mouth to wake up Changsun Sheng, when he heard someone outside the tent say, "Master, the disciple has come to say hello." ”
