Chapter 572: The Hidden Gunslinger
Kaifeng Mansion entered the courtyard twice.
The twenty-odd adults were each hiding in the darkness, barely seeing them with the help of the moonlight overhead, each with a very mixed expression on their faces.
Anyone standing here is a well-known figure in the Kaifeng martial arts, either the head of the small sect or the number one person in the family, and he can make the Kaifeng martial arts world tremble with his feet.
In addition to the identities on the surface, these people have another identities that are the same, lurkers!
As a sleeper, these people have almost forgotten their identities and will only carry out their actions when they are instructed to do so by the "water source".
Although they all knew each other, they were a little embarrassed to stand here today and learn the identity of each other's lurkers, so everyone was in their own place, and when they met each other, they only nodded slightly, but no one spoke.
When Zhao Guoqing and the others came here, everyone's eyes gathered, especially after seeing so many people dressed as ninjas around Grandma Han Yuan, they had already guessed the identity of the other party.
In addition to Grandpa Han Yuan following Grandma Han Won, Zhao Guoqing and the others were scattered around to facilitate their actions in the future.
Zhao Guoqing secretly observed, and with the help of the moonlight, he found that the clothes or other places on the bodies of these people were more or less stained with blood, and knew that the previous guess was correct, and there was already a martial arts person who died in the hands of these lurkers.
The people who are still alive in each sect or family are either already under the control of these people or have followed them.
It can be said that except for the Wang family and the Han family, the entire Kaifeng martial arts has fallen.
"Are you all here?" Grandma Han Won asked.
This sentence is equivalent to nonsense, no one knows how many lurkers there are in Kaifeng except for the "water source", and the lurkers will not know each other's identities, so no one can answer this question.
Grandma Han Won nodded slightly, and then said, "I think everyone has already guessed something. After a slight pause, he spoke again, "That's right, the former 'water source' Wang Qingsheng has been sacrificed, and I have replaced him as the new 'water source'." ”
When the lurkers heard this, no one mourned Wang Qingsheng's death, but only saluted Han Yuan's grandmother and said that they would obey her orders. For them, it is not worth remembering that anyone dies, and their only purpose in living is to carry out the task of Project Water Drop.
Zhao Guoqing secretly observed that excluding those little brothers outside, there were twenty-six enemies here alone, with an average age of over fifty.
Let's not talk about the level of martial arts that these people have learned, their cultivation should not be much lower than Wang Qingsheng.
On the other hand, on his side, there are only ten people when he is full, and it is difficult to take down these people in front of him in one go.
If you want to fight, you must attack it while it is unprepared, otherwise there will definitely be casualties.
In addition, you can't wipe out these people, you have to use them to subdue the other younger brothers outside and lurking in Kaifeng.
In short, the battle is a daunting task.
Zhao Guoqing kept glancing at others, waiting for an opportunity to act.
"Lord 'Water', what is our next plan of action?" Someone asked.
Grandma Han Won spoke: "Please get closer to me, I don't want the plan of action to leak out." ”
The lurkers scattered in the courtyard of Erjin gathered in front of Han Yuan's grandmother, but they still kept a certain distance from each other.
Grandma Han Won glanced at everyone and said in a low voice, "The next plan is... Go home. ”
Go home?
All the lurkers were stunned, and Zhao Guoqing and the others were also very surprised, and they couldn't understand what Han Yuan's grandmother was saying.
"Lord 'Shui', we don't understand it too well." And there was preaching.
Grandma Han Yuan continued: "I mean to give up your mission, forget your identity before you came to the Celestial Empire, and live well in the Celestial Empire!" ”
The lurkers looked at each other, and no one was sure if what Grandma Han Won said was true or if she was testing them.
You know, these people have been dormant for too long, basically everyone gets married and has children here, and many times even they can't tell what their identity is.
If these people can really listen to Grandma Han Won's words and take the initiative to surrender, forget their identity as lurkers, and honestly keep their current identity to live, this is also a good solution.
But.. Can island pigs be trusted?
Island pigs are a shameless people, and if they have a little credit, sows can fly.
Zhao Guoqing didn't believe the island pig, and at the same time suspected that Grandma Han Yuan's words were warning these lurkers, so he roared.
"Kill!"
As the voice sounded, Zhao Guoqing had already rushed into the crowd and smashed a punch on the head of an old man, knocking him unconscious with a "bang".
At the same time, Old Man Han also rushed behind Grandma Han Yuan, and Wang Dahai and others also attacked from all sides.
The sudden attack can be said to have played a certain role, and many lurkers fell to the ground during the attack, but after all, the number of enemies was large, and the cultivation was not under Wang Lao Er and Wang Lao San, so he quickly stabilized his position.
The younger brother outside immediately rushed in after hearing the movement, their cultivation was not high, but there were more of them, and after joining, they formed a certain obstacle to Zhao Guoqing and the others.
Some of the lurkers took advantage of this opportunity to escape.
"Sea, signal!" Zhao Guoqing roared, and smashed out with the same punch, and the previous big force collided with the enemy, and directly smashed the guy who was facing him head-on.
Wang Dahai let out a loud but strange whistle, this is the ancient information transmission method of the Wang family, after hearing the whistle, Wang Tiansheng, who was lurking outside Kaifeng Mansion, led people to rush into Kaifeng Mansion.
A scuffle ensued.
Not only did the Wang Dahai brothers' own family arrive, but they also gathered the Wang family to disperse in the side branches of Kaifeng, with as many as 100 people.
With the addition of the Wang family's army, Zhao Guoqing and others quickly controlled the situation.
"Phew."
Just as the battle was about to end, gunfire was heard in the darkness.
Not good!
Zhao Guoqing screamed secretly, and when he looked back, he saw Han Yuan's grandmother standing in the corner of the wall falling.
"Old woman!" Old Man Han exclaimed in surprise, rushed over and picked up Grandma Han Yuan's body, but he couldn't change the facts.
The bullet hit Han Won's grandmother's heart, and even the gods couldn't save her at this time.
"Mom!" The children of the Han family rushed over.
Who is it?
Zhao Guoqing retreated into the darkness first to prevent the cold gun from firing, and at the same time his two eyes turned in the darkness to find.
Judging from the direction from which the gunshots came, the gunman should have been hiding outside Kaifeng Mansion, and to be able to hit the target with one shot in such a harsh environment, the sniper rifle he used was a sniper rifle.
Why would a sniper assassinate Grandma Han Won at this time?
Zhao Guoqing quickly figured it out.
After Wang Qingsheng's death, Han Yuan's grandmother naturally became the new "water source", although she had just taken office and was not clear about the entire Kaifeng action plan, but she should have learned a lot of secrets from Wang Qingsheng.
The only purpose of the sniper shooting Han won's grandmother is to kill her.
As long as Grandma Han Yuan dies, even if all the other lurkers fall into the hands of Zhao Guoqing and others, they will not be able to provide any valuable clues for Zhao Guoqing and others, and the defeat in Kaifeng will not have any special impact on the entire water drop plan.
Over there!
Zhao Guoqing's eyes were fixed on a private house outside Kaifeng Mansion, which was the most likely place where the gunman lurked, and the gunshots came from that direction.
Han Yuan's grandmother is dead, and the gunman is an important breakthrough, and he must not be allowed to escape.
Zhao Guoqing didn't hesitate, his feet stomped on the ground, and he reached out to grab the wall, and then his body was already standing on the wall.
At this moment, a black shadow flashed in the opposite house and disappeared.
Want to go? It's not that easy!
"I'll leave it to you here!" Zhao Guoqing roared, pulled his legs and rushed out towards the opposite house.
The houses in the old city were built very closely, which provided Zhao Guoqing with convenient conditions, so that he could play on the eaves and walls of various buildings without jumping off the walls.
Soon, Zhao Guoqing saw a guy with a sniper rifle running down the narrow street.
Such a familiar figure, who is that guy?
Zhao Guoqing felt that the enemy's back was very familiar, but because it was dark, he couldn't distinguish the other party's appearance, and he couldn't determine the identity of the other party for the time being.
At this time, the gunman also found Zhao Guoqing running on the wall, and hurriedly pulled out his pistol and fired two shots.
"Smack, smack." Two bullets struck the wall.
Zhao Guoqing's figure was stunned, and after avoiding the attack of the bullets, he moved forward at full speed again.
One of the advantages of flying cornices is that you don't have to take detours and chase them completely in a straight line, which greatly reduces the time.
The gunman was very familiar with the surrounding environment, and whenever Zhao Guoqing was about to catch up with him, he limped into another lane to avoid pursuit. In addition, this guy has a gun in his hand, and from time to time he turns around and fires two shots, which has caused a certain obstacle to Zhao Guoqing's pursuit.
Therefore, after chasing Zhao Guoqing for a long distance, he was only very close to the target, but he did not really catch the other party.
Where to run!
Zhao Guoqing cast a butterfly illusion, raising his running speed by a notch in an instant, blocking the gunman before he could turn into another road.
"It's you?!" Zhao Guoqing exclaimed in surprise, seeing clearly that the gunman in front of him was none other than Ma San, who wanted to assassinate him before.
Ma San gives people the impression that he is just a gangster who obeys Wang Qingsheng's orders, but he assassinated Han Yuan's grandmother, which shows that his identity is not as simple as it seems.
What's more, Ma San was blocked by Zhao Guoqing without the slightest fear, which is very unusual!
