Chapter 116: Sniper
After the leader of the Tu gang burned the paper money, he stood up, slowly paced out of the mourning hall, stood under the corridor, and pressed the golden-backed chopping knife on his waist. Outside, dozens of bodyguards with big shoulders and round waists spread out with swords in their hands.
He glanced at these bodyguards and was very satisfied, such guards were not much worse than the guards of the princes and palaces of the capital.
He stood on the steps in front of the mourning hall, listening to the sound of monks and Taoists chanting in the house, and the crisp sound of firecrackers in the distance, remembering that his younger brother had left forever, and couldn't help but sigh.
Just as he sighed, he saw a white light flashing on an old locust tree outside the courtyard of the house in the distance. Immediately after, he heard a crisp sound - "snap hook"!
A brilliant blood flower bloomed on his forehead, and most of the back of his head had been shattered into several pieces, scattered with red blood and white brains!
His body shook violently, and then, he fell straight back, smashing on the ground paved with bluestone slabs, with a bang!
The guards around them were stunned, and one of them shouted, "There are assassins!" All the guards and bodyguards drew their blades and looked around for the traces of the assassin. But there was no one in the courtyard but them.
In the high wall of the Tufu Mansion in the distance, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry are all boat gangs and invited martial artists, they heard the loud noise from outside the wall, but it is now the Spring Festival, and there are firecrackers everywhere in the city, although this sound is much louder than ordinary firecrackers, but it has not attracted much attention from them. Because at this time, people didn't know that there was a hot weapon that could shoot a martial arts master in the head from hundreds of steps away. It wasn't until they saw the bodyguards in the lobby in the distance that they knew something was wrong, and they drew their swords and looked around nervously, but they didn't know where to attack.
On the old locust tree outside the wall, Leng Yi, who was wearing a human skin mask, looked at the corpse of the gang leader in the distance, and said coldly: "I said it, the sky has eyes!" ”
It turned out that after the Tu gang leader was imprisoned in the yamen, Liao Zhifu did not sleep peacefully for a day, he knew that the Tu gang leader had a close relationship with the transfer envoy, and there were many enemies, but he must not make any mistakes, so he used the strength of the entire yamen to prevent it, and also transferred several teams of soldiers from the nearby garrison to defend the prison.
Leng Yi had been waiting for the opportunity to assassinate the leader of the Tu gang, but the Yamen prison was heavily guarded, and there was no way to approach him, so he had to wait for him to come out.
However, to Leng Yi's surprise, the vigilance of the Tu Gang Master's mansion was also suddenly strengthened several times, and countless boat gang masters and hired martial artists came, all of whom were not weak in martial arts. Surrounded the entire slaughterhouse.
On the day when the gang leader was released from prison, he was even more precautionary than the prince's patrol, and he couldn't get close at all.
Since then, Leng Yi has been squatting around the Tu Mansion, waiting for the opportunity. However, when the Tu gang leader entered the Tu Mansion, he did not come out at all like a bear hibernating in a cave. And the entire Tufu is full of boat gang masters and invited martial arts masters. Leng Yi didn't have the confidence to avoid such a dense defense, sneak in and kill the Tu gang leader, and still be able to retreat with his whole body.
Seeing that time passed day by day, Yin Ling still had a lot of things to deal with, and Tu Fu did not have any trace of relaxing his vigilance, so Leng Yi had no choice but to decide to use a precious bullet to snipe the Tu gang leader from a distance!
By observing, he chose this old locust tree that grew outside the high walls of Tufu, an alley where there were few people after dark, and because of the dense trees, even if anyone passed by, they would not notice that he was hiding on it. It was nearly five hundred meters away from Tu Er's mourning hall, which was the closest distance he could find to the target, but it had already reached the limit of the effective range of his police sniper rifle.
In order to ensure the accuracy of the surname, he had no choice but to choose not to use a muffler, so as not to affect the range and accuracy. The sound of firecrackers from time to time in Bazhou City is the best cover.
On this night, he finally found the opportunity to shoot the leader of the Tu gang from a distance.
After shooting the leader of the slaughter gang, Leng Yi quickly disassembled the gun into the box, carried it well, looked at the chaotic slaughter house, quickly got off the old locust tree, and walked forward along the alley.
At this moment, on the roof of a house not far away, a man in white who was hidden there floated away, and his eyes were full of horror, the kind of horror that saw the grim smile of death.
The next day, Leng Yi was wearing an official robe, and was about to take Master Dong and them out to visit the remaining two prefect officials for the last time, when a yamen soap was sent to Leng Yi and an invitation was handed to Leng Yi, but it was Liao Governor's Mansion who invited him to the mansion for a banquet.
Leng Yi hurriedly took Yin Vulture and them to the prefect's yamen.
Governor Liao met him in the reception hall, and said with a solemn expression: "Have you heard?" Tu gang leader, stabbed to death! ”
"Really?" Leng Yi was taken aback, "Who did it?" ”
"I don't know!" Governor Liao shook his head, "Just in front of the mourning hall in his mansion, someone shot him with an extremely powerful hidden weapon, and half of his head was gone!" This government got a report, and I rushed to investigate last night and saw that the tragic situation was the same as that of the leader of the Lady Gang! Last time, the government asked the Tu gang leader to check and identify the cause of death of the leader of the Za Nu gang to see what secret weapon he was killed, but he didn't see it, he only said that the assassin's martial arts were extremely high. Unexpectedly, now, he himself died at the hands of the same person! ”
"A person with extremely high martial arts?" Leng Yi said, "Doesn't this Tu gang leader have a lot of bodyguards?" How do killers get close? ”
"Yes, at that time, the place where the Tu gang leader was stabbed was on the steps in front of the mourning hall, and the guests who came to pay their respects at that time could only be in another mourning hall set up outside the mansion, and there were only his own people in it. There are bodyguards in front of him and behind him, and there are no outsiders, so the government judges that the murderer must be hidden among these bodyguards. ”
Leng Yi nodded frequently: "Makes sense!" It can only be them who can kill the Tu gang leader. ”
Governor Liao was a little proud, and said: "This government has ordered that all the guards and bodyguards who were around him at that time be arrested and interrogated one by one. The murderer will definitely be found. Hey hey"
"That's that!" Leng Yi said with a smile.
"That's it!" Liao Zhifu lowered his voice and said, "The last time the boat gang robbed and killed the merchant ship and kidnapped the hostages, their gang leader didn't know, and it was difficult to convince people to report it, the government was in a dilemma, but a killer killed him, and invisibly solved this problem for the government. Therefore, it is not known whether the leader of the boat gang participated in the robbery of merchant ships and the kidnapping of hostages. That's not the case, it's the most suitable. Hehehe"
Leng Yi said: "Lord Liao's idea is clever, so that others will be less suspicious of the adult's protection of him." ”
"Well, that's what the government thinks about as well. Okay, the government invited some adjutant officials today, everyone celebrated the festival, and also invited the opera troupe to sing, let's have fun. Let's join in! ”
"Yes. Thank you, sir! ”
On the same day, Leng Yi drank and watched the play with the people of the prefect's yamen at Liao's house, and made a fuss until late at night, and then returned to the inn drunk.
Back in the room, Leng Yi immediately regained consciousness, he quickly changed his clothes, put on a human skin mask, avoided Yin Vulture and their surveillance, left the Yinling Inn, and came to Xinghuang Restaurant. The purpose, of course, is for the other half's honorarium.
However, as soon as he walked not far away, he found that there was an extra tail behind him, and it was a man in black, because the light was dim, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
After Leng Yi turned a small alley, he dodged and hid behind the doorframe of a door behind the alley, and when the man hurriedly caught up, he suddenly flew up and kicked the man down, the gloomy dagger blade pressed against his neck, and said in a dumb voice: "Who are you?" Why follow me? ”
At this moment, Leng Yi felt a strong wind coming, and he knew that it was not good, so he rolled away on the ground, slashing the air with a single knife, and the sneak attacker was even more lazy, followed by a few more slashes, Leng Yi flashed quickly.
The man on the ground also got up, drew a single knife, and struck Leng Yi on both sides.
The sneak attacker slashed Leng Yi's shoulder, but it seemed to be cut on the stone slab, and he couldn't help but be stunned. In a moment's moment, Leng Yi's thin dagger flashed twice, and the large blood vessels of the sneak attacker's right arm and right leg were severed, and blood immediately gushed out like a spring.
With a bang, the sneak attacker landed single-handedly.
The stalker had already slashed to the top of Leng Yi's head with a single knife, Leng Yi's figure suddenly disappeared, and the stalker felt that it was dark in front of him, but it turned out that Leng Yi had already rushed in and was almost in front of him. The stalker was shocked and wanted to retreat, only to find that his legs were weak, and he fell backwards, and the single knife in his hand had been snatched by Leng Yi's hand.
The stalker lay on the ground, only to find that blood was gushing out of his legs, and his whole body was quickly gone. In a panic, he opened his mouth to shout, but his throat had been pressed against a single knife, so he quickly shut up.
Leng Yi said: "Who are you?" If you don't say it, you die! ”
The stalker sneered and said, "If I want to die, you will die too, that is, the front and back feet." Kill me! ”
Leng Yi didn't say a word, and with a single wave of the knife in his hand, he cut off his neck, and his big head rolled to the side.
The sneak attacker was lying on the ground, and when he saw Leng Yi so fierce, he was so frightened that he was terrified, and said, "Save me, I'll say ......."
"Say!" Leng Yi's blood-dripping single knife pressed against his throat again, and his words were colder than the blade.
"You ...... first, you save me first......," the sneak attacker's voice grew weaker and weaker.
The large blood vessels in his body have been severed, and the blood has flowed too much to save him. Leng Yi still pressed the upper part of his blood vessels with his hand, slowed down the flow rate, and said, "Say it!" ”
"I'm ......, I'm ......" The sneak attacker's voice grew so low that he couldn't hear it at all. Leng Yi leaned his head up to listen, but there was no sound. When I touched the blood vessels on the side of my neck with my hand, there was no pulse.
Leng Yi looked at the two corpses, threw down the single knife in his hand, turned around and left here quickly.
He walked through two alleys, and soon, he found another tail following him! Then, the number of tails increased to six, and they quickly approached themselves!
