Chapter 17: Assassination
Back in the study, Bai Wuchang helped take some gold sore medicine from the medicine box and help apply it, and as for the internal injuries, he could only wait for Lang Zhong to recuperate. After the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info bandaged the wound, Han Qi suddenly opened his eyes and said to himself: "It's been so long, what about the others?" ”
"Who?" Bai Wuchang instantly reacted and said, "Yes, what about the others? There was such a big commotion in this courtyard, it was impossible that no one else would come, and someone had already gone out to find reinforcements? ”
The two looked at each other, and a sense of horror still rose.
"Tsk tsk, you're only finding out about this now, it's too late." As soon as the words fell, a person suddenly fell from the beam, and the long knife in his hand drew an arc of light in the air, Han Qi looked at it with a shocked face, and the expression on his face was frozen for a moment. A great head rolled to the ground, and a man as strong as him may never have thought that he would not die on the battlefield, not under the last arrow, but at the hands of a gentleman on the beam.
Han Qi's head rolled around twice on the ground, and one face was facing Bai Wuchang, as if asking him what was going on. After his head hit the ground, his body leaned on Bai Wuchang's body, and the blood that spurted out splattered his face.
"You...... How did you get here? Bai Wuchang violently pushed Han Qi's headless corpse away, and pretended to be relaxed: "Brother Mo is very relieved to see you so safe and sound, as an elder brother. ”
Mo Yangming put the long knife in his hand that was still dripping blood on Bai Wuchang's neck, and said with a sneer: "Don't be coy here, who is your brother, it's only because I was blind that I believed what you said." Have pity on my dead people. ”
Bai Wuchang said with a sad face: "The matter has come to this, could it be that Brother Mo wants to put all the responsibility on the old man for peace of mind?" At the beginning, we said that after the deed is completed, I will help you seize a cottage, so that you have a foothold. In this way, Brother Mo will agree to make a move, and he also asks for something, since he has a request, how can he blame others for success or failure? ”
"Yes, the reason why I agreed to cooperate with you in the first place was also to find a foothold for my clan. Success or failure is a matter of probability, and you can't be blamed for the fact that you are willing to gamble and lose. But there is one thing, we said at the beginning, as long as we rescue you, you will fight back through the forces outside the mountain, and now ......"
"What is happening now? There is nothing in the world that is nine out of ten, and if you choose, you must accept the risk. Bai Wuchang said indifferently: "Brother Han, the deceased is gone, and the living are strong." One thing you've just done may turn everything around. ”
"You mean I killed this guy?" Mo Yangming sneered and said, "Everything is meaningless, the next person to die is you." ”
"Brother Mo, you killed me only because the old man's promise was not fulfilled, but there is a reason for that, and you know it. If I die now, then your brothers will die in vain. The reason why Bai Wuchang was confident was only because he suddenly thought that now that Han Qi was dead, although he did not have many troops in the cottage, but with his prestige, he would collect the remnants of Wu Feng, and there would be more than 100 people. At that time, the crowd brought by Han Qi will not be able to subdue it. The main thing is that the two thousand men and horses who went out hunting, he did not believe that they would all betray him. There must be something strange in it, and no matter what is strange, their family is here, their wives and children are here, and their spiritual belonging is also here, how can they go.
Mo Yangming coldly raised the long knife in his hand, the blade was attached to Bai Wuchang's neck, and the cold cold air penetrated into his body through his skin. The cold eyes without a trace of anger made Bai Wuchang have no doubt about the killing intent in his heart.
"Brother Mo, listen to me, if you give me a little more time, I will definitely help you and your people grab a foothold. If you really kill me like this, it will be the most loss, and you will not get anything, and your brothers will really die in vain......"
"It's useless." Bai Wuchang wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Mo Yangming: "Only by killing you can my clan live, so you must die!" ”
The cold killing intent in Mo Yangming's eyes became more and more vigorous, and Bai Wuchang had no backhand power at this time, but he was very puzzled in his heart as to why Mo Yangming was so unsure of his choice.
"For the sake of our original acquaintance, I'll start quickly, and I won't make you feel pain." The long knife in Mo Yangming's hand was raised slightly, and when he was about to make a move, Bai Wuchang suddenly said: "Can you let the old man die." ”
"You know that the responsibility for this matter is not at all mine. Even as long as you wait a little longer, the conditions I promised you earlier can be fulfilled, why is it like this...... Can't wait. Bai Wuchang doesn't understand, really doesn't understand, the dawn of hope is in front of him, why can't the people in front of him see it.
"Just when I was helping you repel Wu Feng, the old and young of my clan were slaughtered and captured by a small team of men and horses because they were not protected. My wife and children have died at the hands of those people, and now, the other party threatens the life and death of my people, and wants me to take your life, what will you choose? Mo Yangming didn't have a trace of expression on his face, but Bai Wuchang could feel the pain in his heart at this time.
"It's the people from Qinglong Mountain who let you come?" Bai Wuchang looked at Mo Yangming with burning eyes and said, "Do you think that if you kill us, your people will be saved?" To tell you the truth, Qinglong Mountain has withdrawn from the army, and they let you come just to send you to death. I'm afraid that the brothers outside your hospital are almost dead at this time. ”
"They...... Already gone? Mo Yangming was slightly stunned for a moment, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Yes, my brothers stayed outside the hospital in order to help me buy time, and I am afraid that they will all die at this time." ”
"Brother Mo, you believe me again, after I control the situation in the mountains, I will definitely help you find a way to rescue the clansmen as soon as possible. At that time, whether it is to help you take a foothold in a cottage, or let you be in the middle of Baiyan Peak. I'm also a lot older, and the position of the peak master will definitely not last long, and it's not impossible to give way to you at that time. Bai Wuchang said it was true, but it obviously didn't impress Mo Yangming.
"On the Huangquan Road, Lord Baifeng has gone all the way." The long knife was slightly raised, and an obvious blood mark appeared on Bai Wuchang's neck, and then blood spilled out of it.
"Originally, I planned to kill you, so I cut myself. It seems that I can't die yet, and I can't see those people treating my people well, and I won't die blindly. Mo Yangming knew very well in his heart that even if he succeeded in assassinating him as he had said before, no one would return alive from this operation. Because they are alive, Qinglong Mountain cannot rest assured that their people will be arranged. Only the elderly, weak, women and children are the best to control.
The loud sound of the fight blew up in the cottage, and everyone thought that the danger was far away and life would be on the right track, but they were suddenly awakened by the painful facts.
Lin Fei and the others walked back at a relaxed pace, and now everything seems to be developing in a good way, at least on the surface. In front of the top of the mountain, he suddenly saw the light of fire rushing at him, and the flames swayed in the air, like a dancing girl.
Du Fatzi scratched his head and said cutely: "Obediently, this fire is spreading too fast, how can it burn to the mountain." ”
Lin Fei was amused by his words, and couldn't help but scold: "You are stupid, if the fire spreads, then the whole mountain will be burned." ”
"Something must have happened, my dad is still on the mountain." Bai Peony ran anxiously up the mountain, and behind him, Lin Fei and Du Fatzi also hurried to follow. Looking at this fire, something must have happened in the mountains.
The three of them were not too far from the cottage, but they arrived in a moment. The heat wave was blowing in my face, and some places in front of me were already scorched earth. The fire was so big that it didn't even need to be extinguished, and many of the houses were almost burned down. Almost all that greeted the eyes were the lamentations of the elderly and the cries of women and children.
Such a scene is really distressing, for the old and weak women and children to ask for a stable life, but these are a luxury in troubled times. Bai Peony was worried about her father and did not stay here long. Lin Fei asked Du Fatzi to help see if anyone was injured, he didn't worry about letting Bai Peony go alone, and after thinking about it, he knew that if someone deliberately set fire, its main purpose must be to fish in troubled waters and disturb everyone's sight. And the fish that can be touched are naturally Bai Wuchang and Han Qi.
Time seemed to have been reset, and Lin Fei came over in the same place twice at almost the same time, and the corpses lying in front of him were all horizontal and vertical. If you care, it will be chaotic, and Bai Peony will rush inside without thinking about it, Lin Fei is afraid that she will be in danger, so she quickly follows. ran all the way to the backyard, but saw that in addition to the corpses lying in the open space in the courtyard, there were dozens of people standing, all with sad and confused faces. Lin Fei is not familiar with these people, but he had a relationship with each other the last time he came.
"Generals, this ...... What the hell is going on? Although he had already seen that he had been attacked, Lin Fei couldn't help but ask more: "Have the attackers all been killed?" ”
"These are outlaws, they don't plan to go back alive at all, they are all killed, but we are even more deadly and wounded." At this time, a soldier in the crowd couldn't help crying and said, "The commander, he ......."
"What's wrong with him?" Lin Fei said anxiously: "Where is Lord Han, take me over." ”
"My lord is in the study by Lord Bai Feng, you can go in and see it yourself." From the faces of these people, it is already possible to guess what the situation is.
The white peony seemed to have been drained of its soul, and stood on the spot in a daze. Lin Fei stepped forward and pulled her and whispered, "I'll go first and take a look, you wait here." ”
"No, no, I'm prepared, I'll go in with you." Lin Fei could feel that Bai Peony's palms were covered with sweat at this time, and obviously she had guessed the result.
