Chapter 124: The Legend of the Assassins

Everyone raised the fire to cook, and after a full meal, Dian Wei had not returned, which made Su Chen feel a sense of foreboding. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It stands to reason that with Dian Wei's cultivation today, except for the old monsters who are not born, there are almost no people in the world who can leave him.

However, the black shadow just now lingered in his heart, and the black shadow was able to sneak into him silently, without being discovered by Dian Wei in advance, so there are indeed some means, and now that Dian Wei has not returned, it can only mean that he is in trouble.

After he told Zhang Fei and Xu Huang the doubts in his heart, both of them also felt incredible, thinking that when the two of them competed in the ring, the battle was so fierce that they almost couldn't contain it, and Dian Wei just roared and separated the two of them, that strength, that means, they were simply regarded as heavenly beings.

"Lord, there won't be anything unclean here, right?" Xu Huang said cautiously: "Let's take a look, since we entered the village, we haven't found a single figure, not just people, not even a living thing, and the lord has only seen a shadow, so will we encounter anything unclean, this won't be a ghost village, right?" ”

Hearing Xu Huang's words, Su Chen was thoughtful, but Zhang Feitian said without fear: "Gongming, don't be suspicious, we are all martial arts people, and we are all cultivators, is it possible that we will be afraid of some lewd things?" ”

"Besides, the huge pit at the entrance of the village, and the wooden stakes in the pit, could it be that these things are all fools? It's not that I look down on them, they also have to have that ability. Refuting Xu Huang's words, Zhang Fei said to Su Chen: "Lord, in my opinion, this village is likely to have a group of people who walk in the dark all year round, so this is the case. ”

"A man who walks in the shadows?" He was puzzled by these words, "Yide, you make it clear, what is a person who walks in the shadows?" ”

Zhang Fei didn't answer immediately, as if he was caught in a memory, and Su Chen didn't ask immediately, after a while, under the attentive gaze of the two, Zhang Fei finally said: "Lord, Gongming, you all know assassins, right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Huang immediately replied: "This is not nonsense, who doesn't know about assassins, don't talk about it from afar, just say that the tiger guards under the command of the lord, in addition to the rangers, there is no shortage of assassins, in fact, many rangers themselves are assassins, and they make a living by taking on tasks, otherwise how can they live?" ”

This is true, the ranger is a person in the rivers and lakes to put it bluntly, some of these people bully the market and make a living by collecting protection money, some become doormen and are raised by the family, and some walk the rivers and lakes to eliminate violence and peace, of course, this is also paid, and those who have a bad reputation and have no way to do it will become assassins and make a living by killing people.

Most of the Tiger Guards are rangers, and a small number of them are also what people usually call assassins, but the assassins who can be recruited by Su Chen are still moral, not the kind of assassins who only recognize money, regardless of good or bad, otherwise it is impossible to enter the Tiger Guard, most of these rangers have old ties with the four commanders, so they were recruited by him.

Hearing this answer, Zhang Fei was not surprised at all, and said with a smile: "Gongming, you only know one, you don't know the other, the kind of assassin you are talking about is not a real assassin, the real assassin is the kind of assassin family that has been passed down from generation to generation, most of them are in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, because the princes have developed in the melee, and the families that have been gradually handed down, and some are the families that have been handed down when the world has changed greatly, they have obtained natural abilities and participated in the dispute between Chu and Han, and these families have decent identities, occupations, and even people in the officialdom. In fact, they are true assassins, and what drives them is not money, but great fame, power, and even faith. ”

"Is there really an assassin like you're talking about?" Xu Huang didn't believe it, his eyes widened, expecting him to say the following, in fact, this was the first time Su Chen had heard that there was such a family, and to be honest, he didn't believe it either.

"Absolutely!" Zhang Fei said categorically: "The soil for these people to survive is the change of power, so they are usually active in the chaos of princes and the change of dynasties, and they will choose to live in seclusion whenever they are prosperous." The object that can make them shoot must at least be a prince, the king of the land, or a prince and general, or a feudal official. ”

"And who are they serving?" Xu Huang continued to ask.

"Who to serve?" Hearing this, Zhang Fei replied contemptuously: "There is no one else in this world who is worthy of their service except their lord, and it is not easy to make them recognize the lord, unless they have the ability to compete for the world, because once they are defeated, their family will also be martyred." ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Fei looked at the bright moonlight outside the window and said: "Legend has it that when Chu and Han fought, the four major assassin families served in Chu Ying, Han Ying and the princes of all walks of life at that time, and the family that finally served in Chu Ying did not exist, and the remaining three branches were under the command of Gaozu before they could be passed down, and later Wang Mang's rebellion, another family was destroyed, and today, the four major assassin families handed down from the Warring States may no longer be there, and these four major families were working for the four princes of the Warring States Period, It is also the power of the fourth prince as a confidant. ”

Hearing this, Xu Huang continued to ask: "Yide, what you said is so mysterious, whether it is true or false, we will not investigate it for the time being, so what does what you said have to do with what we have to do with what happened to us today?" ”

Su Chen's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "Yide, do you suspect that the place where we are now is the inheritance of a certain assassin family?" ”

"Maybe, probably, probably!" Zhang Fei touched the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment: "I also listened to my master these legends, and if I don't hide them from my lord, my dead ghost master claims to be the heir of the assassin family, but he is the only one in the family, and the skills he often talks about in his mouth are also brought to the grave because he has no descendants, and he refuses to pass them on to me until he dies, which is really angry." ”

"My Dead Ghost Master said that there is still the only assassin family in the world with an orderly lineage, called the Ghost Shadow Family, and as for the others, the inheritance has been broken."

"Hahahaha, I've been doing it for a long time, you Zhang Yide is also hearsay, and I still listen to your nonsense for a long time, it's really boring, boring!"

Hearing Xu Huang make fun of him like this, Zhang Fei pretended to be angry: "What's the matter? Komeito? Want to practice? ”

"Practice practice, practice, fear of you? It just so happens that we haven't decided the winner last time, so let's try again tonight. Speaking of the last competition, Xu Huang was quite unhappy, and always felt that he had not found a place for his father-in-law.

Zhang Fei was worried that he had nowhere to show his sulkness, so he immediately echoed: "Okay, this is what you said, it just so happens that Jun Ming is not here today, and no one disturbs us in the competition, don't blame me for Lao Zhang not giving you face, if you lose, don't worry, I won't tell others." ”

"Come on, come, who's afraid of whom! I'm afraid that it will be you Zhang Yide who loses, so let you understand the power of this Xuanhua axe today! Xu Huang said without giving in.

At the moment, the enemy is dark and I am clear, Su Chen really doesn't want to see the two of them do this kind of battle of will, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to stop it, he saw Zhang Fei quietly glance at him, so he didn't say anything more.

Zhang Fei is a coarse person on the outside and fine on the inside, he must have his own reasons for doing this, although Su Chen doesn't understand what he wants to do, he is also very cooperative and said: "Yide, Gongming, since you two have itchy hands, it's okay to have a fight, but the sword has no eyes, so you can't do a battle of will." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I will show mercy to his subordinates!"

"Xu Gongming, who are you showing mercy to? Eat my old Zhang a spear! ”

"Zhang Yide, you dare to sneak attack, you are angry with me, look at the move!"

The two of them fought together in an instant, and the brothers of the Tiger Guard also began to watch, except for a few who were in charge of guarding, everyone gathered in the middle of this small courtyard.

Su Chen's mind was not on the competition on the field at all, but he was attentive, always paying attention to everything around him, and if there was any trouble, he could respond in time.

Zhang Fei and the two fought so well, the swords, guns and swords on the field reflected each other, leaving a series of afterimages in the bright moonlight, and the tiger guard next to him pointed and applauded.

Suddenly, Zhang Fei glanced at Xu Huang, Xu Huang didn't care when he came out, and when Zhang Fei made a gesture with his left hand, Xu Huang glanced behind Zhang Fei in surprise, and then immediately turned his gaze away.

Zhang Fei knew that the other party understood what he meant, and suddenly shouted: "Look at the move!" ”

Receiving this signal, Xu Huang comprehended, he instantly used Bacheng True Qi, and an axe slashed in the direction where Zhang Fei came from, and Zhang Fei did not show weakness, and a snake spear stabbed directly behind Xu Huang.

The weapons used by the two are not ordinary soldiers, but magic weapons, and the true qi can fly out along the magic weapon, and even have the effect of amplification, the two of them staggered, castration did not change, just when the tiger guards were strange about the movements of the two, two wails suddenly came from the wall.

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Anyone?" At this time, both Huwei and Su Chen noticed that something was wrong, and immediately ran towards the sound.

After Zhang Fei stabbed out a spear, his body did not stop, and Xu Huang did the same, and after the two of them arrived at the wall, they jumped on the wall with a rise and fall, only to see a black shadow outside the wall trembling and trying to escape.

"Want to escape? Let you taste my old Zhang's means! Zhang Fei threw the snake spear out directly, and it happened to be stuck at the black shadow, and the black shadow suddenly stopped moving.

Zhang Fei quickly stepped forward, pulled out the snake spear, and looked at it again, this black shadow was a person wearing a night suit, unveiled his mask, probed his nose, and obviously had no breath.

"Phew! What a fucking bad luck! ”

In fact, he didn't want to think about it, with his Zhang Fei's cultivation, he was hit by a trick and was stabbed by him, if he was still alive like this, it could only mean that this person's life should not be extinguished, but I was afraid that there would not be many people in the whole world.

When the tiger guard rushed over, Zhang Fei just waved his hand, signaling them to carry the body back, maybe there would be an unexpected discovery.

However, this is just a comfort in his heart, and now he can only see what Xu Huang has gained.

"I hope Gongming isn't so ruthless, otherwise, the lord should scold me!" He is not afraid of Su Chen's scolding, what he is most afraid of is that Su Chen will cut off his wine, if that's the case, he will be too bored to live, who makes people go from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, he is used to drinking Wuyuan Immortal Brew, if he is not allowed to drink, it will really kill him.
