Volume 2 Chapter 39

A group of tiger ben squatted on the ground with their left leg bent and bent on their upper body, each holding a strange hidden weapon in their hands - a slingshot!

These tiger ben are the most reliable and strongest emergency teams that Qu San investigated one by one, personally selected by Zhan Xiu, and personally led by Zhu Zi.

Specializing in dealing with all kinds of emergencies, this was originally a hindsight of Zhan Xiu, but I didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

The projectile is obviously not ideal for combat, but it has been used for sneak attacks to miraculous results. After this round of explosions, seven or eight masked men fell down in unison.

The one who rushed in front of Zhan Xiu, after shouting "release" from Zhan Xiu's mouth, kicked it out with a kick by the way, and almost didn't have much effort.

The ceremony was about to end successfully, and the sudden appearance of this group of black-clothed people made such a scene, which made Zhan Xiu very annoyed, not to mention that Ji Chang and Su Hu's faces were ugly, Ji Chang's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but before they could order the arrest again, the situation changed again.

Although the group of men in black who fell to the ground were all beaten to the head and bleeding or injured, the injuries were not fatal, and after the first attack failed, they fell to the ground and did not wait for a moment before someone in this group of men in black shouted:

"Throw!"

With an order, all the black-clothed men raised their weapons in unison and smashed them towards their respective targets, and the weapons flew out in all directions with a roar.

Zhan Xiu is not afraid of these weapons sneak attack, but the high priest and the old man Ji Chang are inevitably difficult to deal with, at this moment the guards are rushing to the altar, seeing that it is a little difficult to fight, Zhan Xiu gritted his teeth, it is important to save the old man first, so he flew in front of Ji Chang in a flash, raised the bronze sword in his hand and wanted to knock down the sneak attack weapon, and several other people couldn't care about it.

At this time

"Boom Boom ......"

A rapid drum sounded, not loud, but Zheng Zheng seemed to be directly beating in his mind, his heartbeat seemed to beat sharply with the rhythm of this drum beat, and he seemed to be in a trance in front of him as if he was about to fall into boundless darkness again, and the weak blade in his hand was actually a little unstable

Zhan Xiu's heart was shocked, knowing that it was Su Botong, the little girl, who shot again.

The thought in my heart suddenly came from the dantian, and in an instant, the feeling of palpitations and shaking disappeared, and the whole body returned to normal, and with a sweep of my eyes, everyone around me was shaky, and those weapons thrown in the air suddenly became extremely slow, as if they were wrapped around the body by thousands of invisible silk threads.

Said slowly, then fast, but saw that the weapon flew more and more slowly, from the initial agility like a swordfish to the current stagnant like crossing the sand, until it was almost close to the bodies of the people finally stopped completely, and then all fell to the ground in the sound of choking, and stopped abruptly with the sound of the weapon landing drum, and the torches that were lit in all directions were suddenly extinguished.

I didn't expect Su Botong's drum sound to have such a method, and Zhan Xiu couldn't help but feel a little chilled.

The light on the altar suddenly dimmed, seeing this scene, Zhan Xiu suddenly remembered in his mind that Wu You had said that he should prepare more candles during the lunar eclipse, could it be that he knew that there would be such a situation, and at the corner of his eye, a fluttering figure on the east side of the altar suddenly disappeared, but in the moonlight, Zhan Xiu could see it very clearly, and the pretty face was extremely pale, as if he was seriously injured

After coming back to his senses, Zhan Xiu hurriedly stepped forward, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one ping-pong punches and kicks, knocking all the black-clothed people who had just thrown their weapons to the ground again

This time he was ruthless, and fainting was light, most of them directly broke their legs or kicked their ribs, and they didn't even snort and a group of people were all knocked unconscious, only the person who took the lead in shouting was trampled to the ground by Zhan Xiu and lost his ability to move, but he hadn't made a heavy hand yet.

This guy estimated that he had a mind and could ask what the torture was about, so Zhan Xiu grabbed this person and loudly instructed the recovered guards to pick up the candles that had been prepared on the side of the altar and re-light the torches.

Although the guards could not hide their horror after recovering, they responded very quickly, some of them rekindled the fire, and some of them quickly escorted Ji Chang, Su Hu, the high priest and others in the middle.

At this time, Su Hu said loudly to Zhan Xiu: "Second son, you are responsible for arresting all these people and bringing them back to the mansion for detailed interrogation tomorrow."

Zhan Xiu looked back, saw that Su Hu's face was ugly, his body trembled slightly, and he remembered that he had only cared about the old man before, and he was a little ashamed in his heart, so he hurriedly responded loudly

"Yes, General!"

Ji Chang and Wu You themselves were already tired behind the main hall, and they were even more exhausted by this fright at this moment, and they quickly went back under the escort of the guards, leaving Zhan Xiu to be in charge of the aftermath.

After the cooking stopped, it was almost dawn, and it was almost a full day and a night, and after returning to the house and going to bed, Zhan Xiu also felt very tired and soon fell asleep.

It was almost noon when he woke up from this sleep, Zhan Xiu was woken up by Qu San's knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw Qu San outside and said in a sincere panic:

"Master, the general and the Hou Ye please come over, they are interrogating the people who came to make trouble last night"

Zhan Xiu nodded, cleaned up a little and then went straight to the hall of the Hou Mansion.

When I arrived at the hall, I saw Su Hu Ji Chang and the others all sitting on the chair with grim faces, Su Hu was still holding a piece of silk cloth in his hand, and the old man Ji Chang was leaning over, not coughing twice.

Seeing Zhan Xiu come in, Su Hu's face softened a little and nodded to Zhan Xiu, and then turned his face to Ji Chang on the side and said, "Since the second prince is here, then this matter can be handed over to him, and I will talk to Hou Ye alone."

"Ahem......"

Ji Chang coughed lightly twice, nodded and said yes, and then said to Zhan Xiu: "Since you are here, then you bring a few people over, and ask who these people were last night, and then reply after asking."

Zhan Xiu felt a little strange in his heart, yesterday he said that he was going to interrogate in detail, why didn't Su Hu and the old man go in person today, glanced at Su Hu and the old man with a serious face, didn't dare to ask more, greeted a few guards and then went straight to the dungeon.

After Zhan Xiu left, Su Hu waved his hand and retreated the others, leaving only Su Hu and Ji Chang in the hall

Su Hu said: "Master Hou, judging from the clothes that these people are wearing, it is basically certain that they are sent by Chaoge, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Ji Chang was a little too excited yesterday, and then he was stimulated by the strange drum sound, and his spirit was very bad, and when he heard this, his brows were twisted, and he coughed a few times before he said: "There is a reason for this, since I didn't come to make trouble before the ceremony began, but attacked later, maybe there are some other schemes, Ji Fa has already gone to trial, if I didn't guess wrong, I'm afraid that Chaogecheng cares about our intention to hold the ceremony!" ”

Su Hu was taken aback when he heard this, raised his eyes and looked at Ji Chang, who was like the bottom of a pot, and didn't say anything for a long time

After a while, he said: "But this ceremony has been going on for a long time, and although it has not been held in the past, can it be possible to find some faults in this way?" ”
