Chapter 129: A Night of Shock (14)

This rain was not timely, and Tiangong personally took action to help Gu Xuan erase the traces he left along the way, otherwise, with the methods of these assassins from the ground net, it would not be difficult to quickly catch up with a person who was already seriously injured and completely supported by willpower.

After all, many years ago, Gu Cang had personally participated in the formulation of the daily compulsory courses for these assassins, one of which was called "tracing", which was to allow them to successfully detect the enemy's traces in various extreme environments, so he even did not hesitate to invite senior scouts from the border army to teach experience.

It's a pity that after this heavy rain, the blood stains have been washed away, and the smell has become extremely light, and the capital is so big, there are too many places to hide, this is originally a kind of extreme environment, all kinds of smells gather together, unless it is a hunting dog, otherwise even ordinary domestic dogs may not be able to smell it.

The assassin with a soft sword in his hand chased after Ma Erhu for a long time, and finally caught Gu Xuan's traces, and along the way, the smell became stronger and stronger, and the little undetectable smell of blood in the air was slowly expanding, and he who was originally hanging behind like a dog, his steps began to become slower and slower, as if he had turned into a cat again, moving quickly on the street very lightly.

It's close!

It's close!

It's right in front of you!

At the moment of turning the corner, he directly took out his sword, and the soft sword at his waist flew out like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, however, unexpectedly, the sword in his hand fell into the air, and there was no one in front of him, only a small puddle under his feet, but there was a noisy human voice coming from the port not far away, and he suddenly felt a little annoyed for a moment, because he realized that if the other party successfully escaped into the port and hid, it would be really difficult to find.

At this moment, his ears moved slightly, and he even heard a slight sound in the rain, and he was anxious, so he immediately reached out and hooked the convex part of the wall, and a flexible harrier turned over, jumped onto the roof in an instant, and then stepped on the eaves, all the way forward silently.

As he got closer, the sound from below became more and more pronounced, and he stopped in an instant, looked downward, and saw a trolley full of barrels moving forward automatically in the rain, and the movement just now was the sound of the cart rolling across the street.

Under this cold and rainy night, such a scene seems extraordinarily terrifying, even if he is the ghost in the net, he comes and goes on weekdays, and there is no difference from that ghost, but under it, it is still a little terrifying, if he can lift his mask at this moment, the expression under must be very exciting.

But in the next moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, for he saw below, in the shadows of the houses, suddenly emerge a dwarf in a hat and a cloak, pushing the cart with both hands, apparently walking towards the port.

Stinky dwarf, scared Lao Tzu!

He couldn't help but curse in his heart, and at the same time complained about whether his heartstrings were too tight, and after observing carefully for a while, he found that there was no problem, and then quietly turned around and left, but after a few ups and downs, he returned to the place just now, and when he was about to look for clues carefully, he suddenly felt as if he was stepping on something under his feet.

Without hesitation, he immediately leaned over and scooped it up from the sewage, rubbed it vigorously in the palm of his hand, regardless of the filth, and looked at it again, his face immediately changed, and after looking left and right for a while, he pulled his legs and walked away, chasing in the direction where the dwarf had left.

"Stop!"

He ran as hard as he could, and soon he was behind the dwarf who was pushing the cart, and immediately stopped him.

The man with the cart immediately stopped, and slowly lowered his hands from the armrests of the cart, and then saw him slowly turn around and face the other man.

But I saw that this person was born with a short figure, but even if he was covered by a coat, he could still feel that the muscles of his body were extremely strong, and the white beard of his chin was all tied up one by one with an exotic rope.

The reason why he suddenly appeared here late at night was because today was the day when he came to the port to purchase, after all, he was selling the spirits of the Di clan on weekdays, and some materials had to be transported from the Eastern Continent by the cargo ships of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce every once in a while.

After seeing Lao Huo's appearance clearly, this person here was also a little surprised, after all, Lao Huo was not only in a strange figure, but also looked a lot different from other people, but fortunately, at this time, this person was not very interested in understanding this, so he asked directly: "Let me ask you, did you see other people passing by on this street just now?"

Lao Huo has been wearing a hat, and after being asked, he immediately raised his head and looked at the man in front of him who was wearing a terrible grimace mask and wearing a night suit that obviously did not look like a good person, and his face suddenly showed a frightened expression, and his mouth trembled and said: "You, you, what are you going to do, I, I can tell you, I am a serious Daliang people, I, I have that, that spectrum, you, don't mess around。。。。。。 ”

Before he finished speaking, the man impatiently held up a token and asked again: "The court is doing business, since you are my people in Daliang, then you have the obligation to help me, let me ask you, did you see other people passing by on this street just now?"

Lao Huo thought about it seriously, then shook his head gently, made an honest appearance, made a bitter face, and said mournfully: "No, official, Xiao Lao'er came from there tonight, and I didn't see anything along the way except you." ”

The man was obviously a little unconvinced, or he was doing what they did, and his suspicion had always been serious, so his voice became more and more erratic, and he continued: "No, I can tell you, there is a court that is about to flee tonight, and whoever dares to shield him will be guilty of a felony of the Nine Clans, no matter who it is, so I will ask you again at the end, have you really not seen it?"

Lao Huo was so frightened that his head had shrunk, looking even shorter and pitiful, and he still replied in a low voice in his mouth: "Official, Xiao Lao'er really didn't see anything, I am just an ordinary flat-headed person, it is not easy to eat, where do I dare to harbor any fugitives." ”

The man's tone sank, and he asked, "It's curfew now, what are you doing here all night?" and what's in your bucket?"

As he spoke, his hand also touched his waist, obviously he already had the idea of making a move, it all depends on how Lao Huo answers.

Lao Huo explained helplessly: "Official, you know when you look at me like this, I am a foreigner, and I finally settled here, I usually do a small business, and I can't afford to hire any people, so I can only go out to buy goods by myself at night, no, I am going to go to the port to buy some things for winemaking, and then ask them to send some specialties here to the people in my hometown, if you don't worry, I will open them all for you to see." ”

The man was stunned, and the hand on his waist was instantly released, indeed, looking at the other party's honest appearance, he couldn't fake it, and the other party didn't hide it from beginning to end, he always asked what he wanted, what he answered, and besides, a foreigner really didn't need to save a person who didn't know his identity and was seriously injured, right?

And if the other party said that the car was full of dung buckets, he would definitely take action immediately, but as soon as the other party finished speaking, and immediately began to carry the wooden barrels, he felt that it was not necessary, and immediately waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you little old man, you speak Liangguo well." ”

He felt that it was okay in his heart, so he didn't want to delay here any longer, after all, if he lost Gu Xuan, he would definitely die later, so he wanted to hurry up and go there again to find the traces of the other party, he believed that as long as he hung the other party, the other party would definitely die.

"Hey, okay. When Lao Huo heard this, he hurriedly agreed, and began to put the bucket he had just moved down to the car, and then said very flatteringly: "Thanks to the praise of the official, Xiao Lao'er will go to work first." ”

The man didn't say much, turned around and prepared to leave directly, Lao Huo also reloaded the bucket here, and was also ready to leave, the two sides should have parted and never met again, but at this most critical time, there was suddenly a little movement in the barrel, not big, it should be said that it was very subtle, but at this time, it was very obvious.

After the whole scene was still for a while, Lao Huo immediately made a decision, and directly kicked on the cart, and the cart suddenly rushed towards the port, and after hitting the gap in the ground halfway, the barrel on it popped out because of inertia and fell to the ground, but because of the excellent quality, it was not broken, but continued to roll towards the port.

The assassin here also turned around with a sword, but Lao Huo dodged it very flexibly, but the shoulder was still pierced by the clothes and the clothes underneath, but Lao Huo didn't even snort, because after dodging the main strength of this sword, plus the soft sword itself is not very sharp, and their earth clan is naturally good at defense, and their skin is extremely tough, and this sword is only separated from the clothes.

Lao Huo hasn't done much with people for nearly a hundred years, but this natural kung fu has not weakened in the slightest, and in terms of the life span of the earth clan, he has just reached the end of his prime at the moment, and his body and other aspects will never be half a point weaker than the other party, although there is no weapon in his hand, but the ferocity is together, not retreating but advancing, relying on his short and flexible stature, bullying himself, and smashing on the man's stomach with a punch.

"Drink!"

Lao Huo shouted angrily, and punched with all his strength, so that the assassin's body was bent like a boiled shrimp, if it weren't for the grimace mask, it is estimated that even the dinner he ate was spit out by Lao Huo's punch.
