Chapter 40: Assassination in the Night Attack
"Why is this Cui family's sister-in-law so vulnerable?" That's what the older generation here thinks. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hmph, I didn't expect this Cui Hao to be even more wasteful than I thought!" This is Guo Wen's idea.
"Although Cui Hao is also a cultivator in the Yi Jin period, but against Su Chen, I can only say that you are unlucky, just those ten moves, others only know that I intend to give in, but they don't know that although I used ninety percent of my strength, I still failed to win the other party within ten moves."
Different from Biren's thoughts, Li Su took this for granted, if he couldn't take Cui Hao within ten moves, then he wouldn't be the Su Chen who fought him just now.
It's just that he didn't expect that the other party would win Cui Hao, who had the same cultivation, in three moves, which made him can't help but think of the wine that Su Chen drank just now: "Could it be that the wine has the effect of improving his skills in a short time?" ”
But now he didn't have a chance to ask the doubts in his heart, so he could only press them to the bottom of his heart, and ask carefully when he had the opportunity in the future.
"Good!" Seeing that Su Chen took down Cui Hao in three moves and two styles, Gao Shun slapped the table heavily, and at this time, everyone shifted their attention to Gao Shun, the long history, and saw that he was amazing, but some people who had not received the news before knew that the relationship between Gao Changshi and the Su family was extraordinary.
Wang Zhi was not sad or happy, even if this result was not in his expectation, but it was also under his control, he also felt that the Cui family was somewhat entrenched in Wuyuan County, and sometimes even hindered the interests of his Taishou, so Su Chen's victory was not beneficial to him.
Cultivate an opponent for the Cui family, and the Cui family will honestly tie it to his warship, become a dog in front of him, and no longer think about anything wrong.
So seeing Su Chen's victory, Wang Zhi also praised in a timely manner: "Sure enough, it is a tiger father without a dog, and the Su family is a double master, this is really the blessing of my Wuyuan County." ”
Hearing Wang Zhi's evaluation so high, it was time for Su Yu to come forward at this time, he hugged his fist at Wang Zhi and said humbly: "The dog is stubborn, you shouldn't be praised so much!" ”
After speaking, he pretended to have a straight face, and reprimanded Su Chen: "Chen'er, don't you let go of Cui Xian's nephew quickly, come over quickly, and thank the king." ”
Su Chen unfinished lifting his right foot, took a few steps forward, and bowed down: "Thank you Uncle Wang for your praise!" ”
"Good, good, good!" Wang Zhi stroked his long beard and was very pleased, then turned his head and asked Cai Yong: "Cai everyone, such a young man with both civil and military skills, I don't know if he can be your good son-in-law and apprentice?" ”
"Of course, of course!" Cai Yong also smiled and looked at Su Chen, the meaning was self-evident.
Su Chen hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed respectfully to Cai Yong three times, and then handed over the tea to the little guy with his own sharp eyes, Su Chen took the tea, bowed down to Cai Yong, knelt down again, and asked, "Teacher, please drink tea!" ”
Cai Yong took the tea in his hand and took a sip, which was regarded as acknowledging this apprentice.
Immediately afterwards, Su Chen shouted again: "Father-in-law is above, please accept the worship of the son-in-law!" After saying that, he respectfully kowtowed three more times.
"Hahahaha, what a clever boy!" Cai Yong smiled and helped him to get up.
"Congratulations to Brother Bo, Brother Hexi, this good son-in-law and apprentice, what more can Brother Bo ask for?"
"Rejoice, rejoice!"
"Congratulations to Su Sima, Ling Lang is not as good as the weak crown, and he is already both civil and military, which is really the blessing of my Wuyuan County and the blessing of the Han Dynasty."
"Rejoice, rejoice!"
Su Chen stood by Cai Yong's side honestly, accepting everyone's congratulations, and from time to time throwing a wink at Cai Yan, making this little sister so shy that she couldn't do it.
Su Wei was also comforted, seeing that his son was constantly praised by everyone, an old face never stopped smiling, and in the face of everyone's toast, he did not refuse to come, and took it all.
For a while, the banquet resumed its liveliness, Wang Zhi called the singer to dance, and everyone was planning to raise money, singing and dancing, which was not very fun.
But there were also lonely people in the crowd, Cui Hao was defeated by Su Chen's three moves and two styles, he couldn't accept it for a while, he lost his soul and muttered that it was impossible, and left the banquet hall early with the support of the servants.
However, no one paid attention to his departure, and in the end, Su Wei and Cai Yong became the protagonists of this banquet, and Cui Rende, the old fox, also congratulated Su Wei in a timely manner.
The dinner party did not stop until late at night, and everyone was very drunk, and with the support of the servants, they got into the carriage and returned home one after another.
Su Chen also drank high today, you must know that the wine used in this banquet is the Wuyuan Immortal Brew exclusively provided by their Su family, which is a first-class wine that has been distilled twice, and this degree is more than forty degrees, according to everyone's uncontrolled eating and drinking, it is strange not to get drunk.
The father and son of the Su family were all drunk, and Gao Shun was not at ease, so he personally escorted the two home.
Not far from the Taishou Mansion, a pair of men in black suddenly blocked the way of the carriage.
"Who? Dare to commit murder on a certain chassis, it's really impatient! ”
Gao Shun's intimidation immediately woke up the father and son of the Su family in the carriage, Su Wei was the first to wake up, lifted the curtain, pulled out the sword on the car, and jumped out of the carriage with a jump.
It's just that maybe the strength of the wine hasn't passed, but when it fell to the ground, it almost fell, and it was not easy to use both hands and feet to stabilize the body by leaning on the horse.
Su Chen was also awakened by Gao Shun's voice, after he woke up, he only felt dizzy, and secretly scolded himself in his heart for not drinking so much wine just now, barely supported himself, lifted the curtain of the car, and looked outside.
Then the moonlight and the firelight, he saw that the opposite side was densely packed with men in black, not to mention twenty or thirty, all of them holding long swords, and some even carrying bows and arrows on their backs.
The man in black didn't say a word, and directly released a wave of bows and arrows, and several sedan chairmen who were hiding slowly lost their lives in an instant.
Su Chen's head turned off, grabbed a stray arrow, and then also pulled out his sword from the carriage and jumped down.
Although he is not good at using swords, but in the face of bows and arrows at this time, he can't fight the enemy empty-handed, so holding it in his hand is better than nothing, and it can also come in handy at critical moments.
Gao Shun only had a dozen or so guards on his side, because he was going to the Taishou Mansion for a banquet, Su Wei did not bring the guards, only the two domestic servants with him, and at this time, in the face of the siege of a large number of black-clothed people, he was at a disadvantage in numbers.
"It's not good, Brother Gao, I'm afraid everyone Cai is in danger." Su Chen ended the life of a man in black with a sword, and suddenly thought that these assassins were probably coming specifically for him, and he had vaguely guessed who was behind the scenes.
"What?" Gao Shun heard the great urgency, and a sword qi slashed out, and immediately harvested the lives of the five black-clothed people who surrounded him, and then beckoned: "Brothers, send a signal, and fight quickly!" ”
"Chirp!"
A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops come to meet each other.
Not long after the signal arrow was issued, he heard the sound of horses' hooves, and Su Chen looked back and saw that the person in charge was very familiar, it was Li Su who had just separated.
"Brother Su Xian, I'm not late, am I?" Li Su didn't get off the horse, he stepped directly on his horse, and killed directly among the black-clothed crowd.
Su Chen replied loudly at his back, "Brother Li came at the right time!" ”
With Li Su joining, the man in black quickly fell into disadvantage, and then saw the leader shouting, "The wind is tight!" Then they went their separate ways.
"Poor Kou Mo Chase!" Su Chen called out to his father, who was about to kill, and said, "Brother Gao, we have Brother Li here, don't worry about it for the time being, you hurry up and take someone to see if there is anything wrong with Uncle Cai." ”
"Then be careful!" Gao Shun was the security guard of this banquet, except for such a thing, he couldn't explain it to Taishou, so he hurriedly took someone away.
With Gao Shun out of the horse, Su Chen doesn't have to worry, not to mention that the eight hundred camps under his command will come in an instant, even if Gao Shun is alone, if he has no worries, it will be a wolf into the flock, and ordinary killers can't do anything at all.
However, seeing the black-clothed man lying on the ground, he was also a little worried in his heart, judging from the skills of these people, each of them at least has a cultivation in the skin refining period, and there is even a master in the bone forging period, and the person who is the leader is even a cultivator in the Yi Muscle period, can send such a strong team to assassinate, it seems that the people behind this scene have really made a bloody investment.
Moreover, these people are proficient in the art of assassination, and it is quite difficult to deal with, if Li Su hadn't arrived in time, it might have taken a lot of effort.
When it comes to the battlefield against the enemy, of course, these people are not enough for a master of the congenital stage to kill, but if they are assassinated in close quarters, for a while, a master of the innate stage really can't get out of trouble, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry, these people are all people who lick blood at the tip of the knife, and their tricks are countless times in exchange for their lives.
Several palanquin bearers died on the Su family's side, and two servants were also seriously injured, although there was no worry about their lives, but they could only be raised by the mansion in the future.
"Uncle Su, Brother Su Xian, are you all right?" Li Su asked his subordinates to clear out the remnants of the enemy, dismounted and came to the Su family's father and son, and asked.
"Thank you for your concern and kindness, my father and son will remember it." Su Wei put down a sentence, and then went to clean up the mess.
Su Chen also hugged his fists towards Li Su and thanked: "Brother Li, although you and I met for the first time today, you helped me twice, once to help me worship under the Cai family, and to hug the beauty, and once to save the lives of my father and son, this kindness is beyond words." ”
"Brother Su Xian is polite, although you and I are first acquaintances, but I feel that you are like-minded with Brother Xian, and you don't have to take it to heart." Whether Li Su was really polite or fake, in short, he did Su Chen a favor.
Su Chen has always been a person who must repay revenge and kindness, thought about it, and said: "Brother Li, it's getting late today, I won't be polite to you, when you are free in the future, I will come to visit again, and it will be indispensable to disturb Brother Li at that time." ”
"Brother Xian is polite, you go to settle down at home, if you need help, just send someone to report, in this Jiuyuan County, I, Li Su, think that I am still a person, if there is anything that needs my service, I will never refuse."
"So, thank you!" Su Chen hugged his fists again and thanked him.
"That's right, Brother Xian, today's matter ......" Li Su suddenly called out to him, as if he wanted to say something, but Su Chen didn't give him this opportunity, and interrupted: "Today's matter, my father and son have their own considerations, and there is no need for Brother Li to bother for the time being, although we live in Wuyuan, we are not at the mercy of others, since the person behind the curtain dares to stretch out his claws to my father and son, then I have to chop this claw, which can be regarded as killing chickens and monkeys!" ”
"Brother Xian is so courageous, since that's the case, I won't say much, don't say goodbye, let's talk about it another day!" Li Su heard the sound of the strings and knew the elegant meaning, and immediately chose to leave.
"Brother Li, go slowly!" Sending Li Su away, Su Chen came to his father's side, saw the dead old servant, comforted his father a few words, and his mind drifted to Cai Yan, if she has any three long and two short, then don't blame him for being angry at the crown.
"Let's hope she'll be okay......"
