Chapter 118: Assassination (II)

In the Duchy of Wu'an's mansion, in He Fangxiong's study, two strangers kept looking at each other.

He Fangxiong's blazing eyes were fixed on his extravagant face, as if he was expecting something, and at the same time there was some fear that was difficult to hide. Of course, He Fangxiong was not afraid of the identity of the Extravagant Assassin, he was afraid of the answers that were about to come out of the mouth of the extravagance.

"It's really him." After a moment of silence, Hao Li finally opened his mouth and answered He Fangxiong's question clearly, "Your grandson, He Shizhong." ”

Hearing He Shizhong's three words, why not go blank in his head. The answer given by Hao Li pierced He Fangxiong's heart like a sharp needle.

He Shijie, He Shizhong is his two most beloved grandsons, He Shijie's death made him sad, He Shizhong actually hired assassins to kill him, killed his own grandfather, which made him feel even more chilled. He Fangxiong's old age was destined to be spent in grief.

"Now, you can die, understand."

As soon as the cold words fell, only the sound of the sharp blade coming out of the sheath was heard, and immediately, a flash of cold light flashed in front of He Fangxiong's eyes.

He Fangxiong closed his eyes tightly and raised his arm to block the sharp blade that came from the extravagant oblique split.

He Fangxiong's defensive movements were dismissive, and in his opinion, any defensive move by an unarmed old man against an experienced assassin with a sharp blade would be futile. The famous Wu'an Gonghe Fangxiong was no different from a lamb to the slaughter in front of him at this time.

Hao Li was defenseless against He Fangxiong's move to raise his hand, and the moment He Fangxiong waved his hand, Hao Li immediately reacted that something was wrong.

But at this time, it was obviously too late to react, and it was too late for luxury to make a dodge move.

He Fangxiong smiled coldly, threw down his sleeves, and only then did he realize why He Fangxiong had kept calm and calm from beginning to end: He Fangxiong had hidden an arrow in his sleeve! is careless, underestimating He Fangxiong.

He Fangxiong's arm was fierce, and the sleeve arrow tied to the arm was forced to trigger the mechanism, and with a sharp whistling sound, twelve sharp short arrows flew out of He Fangxiong's sleeve.

Extravagant Li subconsciously made a dodge move, dodging the two arrows flying towards the door. There were as many as twelve arrows from the helpless Hidden Arrows, and it was impossible to dodge all the arrows when they were so close to He Fangxiong.

Several arrows pierced Lu's body.

The lethality of the Hidden Arrow at close range is amazing, as an assassin, he is naturally familiar with all kinds of hidden weapons, almost all the arrows of the Hidden Arrow are quenched with poison, and he is now hit by the arrow, and he will soon be poisoned to death.

After being hit by the arrow, after a short pause, he gritted his teeth and stood up. Even if he died, he had to kill He Fangxiong before he died, and he had never missed a shot in his life's assassination career! If he misses, his image as the number one assassin in Liaodong will suddenly collapse.

He Fangxiong saw that he was thinking about it, and before he could stand up on the ground, he had already retreated to the edge of the bed and took the cane that was leaning against the edge of the bed. With a loud shout, he raised his cane and smashed it on his head.

Seeing this, Hao Li turned sideways and wanted to dodge He Fangxiong's blow with his staff, if it was usual, Hao Li was sure enough to dodge this blow. But now that he is seriously injured, he is not as agile as usual. He Fangxiong's cane still hit Hao Li's shoulder hard.

Hao Li snorted and was about to get up, when he looked up to see He Fangxiong once again raising the cane in his hand. The pain of many arrows on his body was unbearable, and He Fangxiong was resisting stubbornly, and he knew that the assassination was hopeless, so he simply withdrew and fled from He Fangxiong's study and disappeared into the slow twilight.

He Fangxiong is old and has difficulty moving, although Hao Li has been injured, how can He Fangxiong usually walk a long way with the help of a cane. Moreover, raising the cane just now and beating He Fangxiong almost exhausted the strength of his whole body. He Fangxiong leaned weakly on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the vast twilight outside the window.

Tonight's Fuzhou is uneasy because of an assassination.

The soldiers of Fuzhou City, who had already slept, were pulled out of the warm bed by the official and searched every corner of Fuzhou City as if they were facing a great enemy.

A team of soldiers with torches in their hands shuttled through the streets and alleys of Fuzhou City, like a swimming fire dragon.

"Search! Search me to death! Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find the assassin! When He Mingye learned of He Fangxiong's assassination, he gritted his teeth with hatred for the assassin and gave the soldiers of Fuzhou City a death order.

"The one who captures the assassin alive will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and the official ......" He Mingye offered another reward for catching the assassin, but after thinking about it, he did not have the power to promote the rank of non-commissioned soldier, and after careful consideration, he swallowed the second half of the sentence back into his stomach.

He Fangxiong didn't hate the assassin who assassinated him like He Mingye, he didn't dislike extravagant li, extravagant was just a ranger assassin, and it was just his profession to take other people's silver taels to assassinate him. And the person who spent money to hire luxury to assassinate him made He Fangxiong feel cold.

"The head of the house." After instructing the soldiers to search Fuzhou City for the assassins, He Mingye immediately turned around and returned to the Duchy of Wu'an.

"I'm fine." He Fangxiong waved his hand and sat on the edge of the bed.

The assassination attempt was a failure, and He Fangxiong was not injured in any way, but he was a little physically exhausted. After sitting on the edge of the bed and resting for a while, He Fangxiong quickly recovered.

He Fangxiong's expression was gloomy, he smiled self-deprecatingly, and said to He Mingye: "This time I don't have to write a letter to persuade Teng Xiao to apologize to He Shizhong." ”

He Mingye was shocked, and looked at He Fangxiong incredulously: "This assassin was sent by He Shizhong. ”

He Fangxiong did not answer, sometimes silence is the best answer.

"He Shizhong's wolf ambition has just done something that is inferior to pigs and dogs!" He Mingye gritted his teeth hatefully and said, "My subordinates will lead troops to Jinzhou for the head of the family!" ”

He Fangxiong waved his hand and smiled helplessly: "No need, the soldiers in Jinzhou are not weaker than the soldiers in Fuzhou, and you can't take the troops to Jinzhou to get cheap." ”

"Then call the soldiers of Shanggaizhou, call the Xiaocai battalion, and go together to crusade against Jinzhou!"

"Enough!" The cane in He Fangxiong's hand nodded fiercely, "The soldiers of Gaizhou and the soldiers of the Xiaocai Battalion can move, and their own family members beat their own families, waiting for outsiders to see the joke." ”

He Mingye kept his mouth shut, just impulsively, he got carried away, and he was really not thoughtful enough to think about things. Gaizhou is on the front line of the anti-Liao resistance, and such a big thing happened to the He family, not only the Liao army, but also the Huang family have coveted the He family for a long time, and it is very likely to take advantage of the fire to rob, no matter what, the soldiers of Gaizhou are untouchable.

He Shilong knelt in front of He Fangxiong, He Fangxiong looked down at He Shilong, the unlucky son, and sighed.

The sigh was a little desolate, and there was a certain helplessness in the desolation.

This sigh may be full of He Fangxiong's complex emotions now. (To be continued.) )
