344. Assassination

A group of carriages was running on the official road, and on one of the carriages, Wen was dressed in a big cockroach, and sat at the front of the carriage with the butler.

Because it had just been night, and Wen was not sleepy, he simply sat with the butler.

The convoy travels much slower at night than during the day, and the big guys are concentrating on not slacking off, not only paying attention to the road ahead, but also paying attention to the surrounding environment.

As early as nightfall, Steward Xi ordered everyone to go down and let everyone raise their spirits and be careful of ambushes.

After experiencing several ambushes and assassinations, the big guys have more and more experience in dealing with assassination and ambushes, and even if Steward Xi doesn't say it, they have a hunch that the night will not be too peaceful.

So during the day, even when they are at full speed, they will take turns to rest and try to be in the best shape at night.

At this time, all the people in the convoy did not rest, sitting at the front and back of the carriage and paying attention to the situation around them.

In this way, the carriage drove until noon, and kept moving smoothly, but the more this time the big guy dared not relax.

The carriage went more slowly, and the wind was strong at night, and the branches of the trees beside the official road swayed from side to side with the wind, and there was a rustling sound.

The dark night is like the abyssal jaw of the devil, waiting for the food to fall into its own net.

While walking, on the ground, Wen Gu shouted "stop", and with the master's "stop", both the carriage in front and behind immediately stopped, and the people in the carriage became more vigilant.

Wen Gu put down his raised palm, before he seemed to faintly hear a different sound, since he practiced a deep internal force, the six senses have become stronger day by day, especially hearing is the most of them.

No one in the convoy dared to make a sound, so he calmed down and listened carefully.

In the silent night, any movement will be magnified infinitely, and I will feel it attentively.

Finally, he noticed that about fifty meters in front of the convoy, there were more than a dozen different breathing sounds hidden on both sides of the official road, and the breathing was soft and deep, so it seemed that they were all good hands.

Although their breathing was extremely light, in the end, they still did not escape the ear power of Wen Gu, who had a deep internal force, and was captured by Wen Shu.

Maybe his martial arts and coping ability are not as good as others, but his internal strength is definitely beyond many people, and it should be said that few people can compare with him.

Steward Xi also reacted at this time, and indeed faintly noticed that there was a different aura, so the hand holding the sword made a gesture of encirclement, and at the same time, there was a trace of shame in his heart, he didn't even have the master to discover the danger first.

The subordinates who understood the gesture quickly surrounded Wen Gu in the middle with a convoy, drew their matching swords, and looked around vigilantly.

Obviously, the enemy is lying in ambush in the shadows, and all they can do is to surround their masters in the middle and try their best to protect them.

In this case, he was no longer ready to hide his strength in the shadows, so he took out a whistle and blew it, the enemies hiding in the shadows are not weak in martial arts, and these guards will not be opponents at all, so letting them fight to the death is nothing more than unnecessary casualties.

As the whistle sounded, all the guards hidden in the shadows quickly appeared and rushed towards the carriage.

At the same time, as the whistle sounded, the Assassins hiding in the shadows knew that they had been exposed, and could not resist flying in the direction of the convoy.

Before it was too late, the Assassins had already arrived at the convoy and started with the guards.

Steward Xi has been staying by the master's side, his responsibility is to protect the master, but fortunately, in the next moment, the secret guards also rushed over, and these assassins were in a scuffle, and the family guards did not begin to suffer casualties.

In the dark night, only the light of the sword and the sound of the sonorous sword could be seen.

The secret guards who protect Wen Gu are all masters specially selected by General Wen, and the assassins who came to assassinate Wen Gu this time are all masters.

Fighting between masters, what is important is the experience of fast and accurate and combat, the so-called narrow road meets the brave wins, this is the truth.

Wen Gu sat on the carriage and did not move like a mountain, watching the figures not far from the carriage crowded, and it was dark and impossible to distinguish friend from foe.

However, in terms of numbers, Qiu Jing knew that the number of assassins was more than that of the dark guards, but fortunately, the extra guards were dragged, and no one had been able to break through the convoy to the inner circle for the time being.

Steward Xi pulled out the sword in his hand and stood under the carriage with great vigilance, ready to plunge into the battle at any time.

In the dark night, the battle lasted for nearly half an hour, and from time to time one or two people fell.

On the ground, Wen Gu had palpitations, as if danger was coming, and then he faintly heard a sound of breaking the air, Wen Gu didn't have time to think about it, and he fell off the carriage with his side lying down.

The moment he flipped it down again, the sword in his hand was also drawn.

Immediately after that, several arrows from the rear shot towards Qiu Jing's side from top to bottom, but they were all quickly shot down with the sword of the steward Xi who had already been guarded, and the sound of arrows continued for a short while.

The rain of arrows in front of him was blocked by Steward Xi, and the swishing sound continued, Wen Gu, who was standing behind the body, raised his eyes and looked coldly at the tree not far away, the archer should be hiding in the tree opposite.

Perhaps sensing that the arrows did not have much effect on the reminiscence, the rain of arrows stopped after a while.

Due to the protection of Steward Xi, only a few of these arrows were shot at the carriage, and the rest were all shot to the ground by Steward Xi, and even the horses were not injured.

At the moment when the rain of arrows disappeared, I heard the sound of jumping down from the tree.

These people quickly gathered towards the carriage, trying to break through to the inner circle, but how could the Wen family's secret guards let them succeed.

Even with the addition of a few new Assassins, the Guards fought them heroically.

Wen Wu entangled the two with one enemy and two enemies, in the darkness he used the scabbard in his left hand to block the stab of one person on his side, and at the same time raised the knife in his right hand to overturn the sword in the other person's hand, and threw two flying kicks, one of them dodged quickly, and the other person couldn't dodge and was kicked heavily on his body.

Wen Wu took advantage of the situation to make up for the man who fell to the ground, and after a scream, there was no sound, and then a flying roll dodged a knife behind him, and while rolling, he pulled out the knife inserted in the assassin's body, and with the help of one got up and raised the knife to meet it.

At the same time, Wen Jiu also eliminated an assassin, and the sword in his hand stabbed at the assassin who was fighting with Wen Wu, and under the attack of the two people, the assassin who was not in a hurry was pierced through his body by a sword.

As more and more Assassins died, the battle was quickly brought under control, and no one was able to break through to the inner circle, and was killed one by one by the dutiful secret guards.

After dealing with all the assassins, no one dared to relax, and after they were on guard for nearly a quarter of an hour, and after not finding anything wrong, they began to pack up the assassin's body.

Wen Gu also got up with Steward Xi and left from the carriage to learn about the battle situation.

Just as he passed by a carriage on the periphery, an accident suddenly occurred, and a person sprang out from under the carriage, and the tip of his sword stabbed straight into Wen's heart.

When Wen Gu sensed that something was wrong, he only had time to dodge sideways, and the staggered tip of the sword stabbed him in the shoulder.

Wen Gu was furious, his body did not retreat but advanced, the sword in his hand stabbed at the assassin as quickly as a swimming dragon, the sword light approached the assassin flew back, and the long sword was pulled out of Wen Gu's body, which was able to avoid Wen Gu's stab.

At the same time, Steward Xi, who wanted to come over to stop the assassin, was stopped by the gesture of his master.

He didn't have time to look at the wound on his shoulder, and he was already engaged in a fight with the Assassin.
