Chapter 419: Thunder is silent
"My lord, the carriage is ready, the guards on the side of Thorn Shi just got me a two-wheeled carriage, are we going back to the manufacturing bureau now?" Hu Haihe walked over, holding a "quite luxurious" two-wheeled carriage in his hand, and said a little sullenly, compared to the previous four-wheeled carriage, no matter how good this two-wheeled carriage is, it is no longer in Hu Haihe's eyes, thinking that the four-wheeled carriage that he had just pulled for a long time was given to him by Assassin Shi, Hu Haihe was extremely depressed.
In addition to Yan Liqiang's side, the guards of the assassin also found a two-wheeled carriage for Old Man Lu, Yan Liqiang sent Old Man Lu into the carriage, said goodbye to Old Man Lu, saw Old Man Lu's carriage leave first, and then walked over, and said to Hu Haihe and Zhou Yong and a few sergeants, "You go back first, I haven't come to Pingxi County for a long time, I want to stay in Pingxi County for one night tonight, find a few friends to catch up, and wait for Pingxi County to happen, I will go back myself!"
"My lord, let's follow you, it's convenient for anything!" Zhou Yong said immediately.
"Haha, don't worry, what danger can there be in this Pingxi City, don't forget that I'm more familiar than you here, you all go back, I'll do it alone!" Yan Liqiang smiled and waved his hand, "Let's go, if it's too late, it's too late to go back!"
"Do you need a rhinosaurus horse, and we'll keep one?"
"No!"
Seeing Yan Liqiang's resolute attitude, Zhou Yong and Hu Haihe could only listen to Yan Liqiang's orders, and after saying goodbye to Yan Liqiang, they returned to the Manufacturing Bureau first.
Yan Liqiang squinted his eyes, watched Zhou Yong, Hu Haihe and others leave, then raised his head, looked at the dim sky, and then had a deep smile on his face that was difficult for others to detect, and then walked unhurriedly in a relaxed manner, leaving the viewing garden, and did not go far, he followed the crowd on the street and came to the plum garden next to him.
Plum Garden is the resort in Pingxi City, especially at night, here is adjacent to Wanshou Lake, after the sky gets dark, many restaurants in the Plum Garden stage and singing workshops have hung up strings of red lanterns, the tourists who come to the Plum Garden, there are still a lot, look at it from afar, the whole Plum Garden is lit up, there is a different scenery, those restaurants, above the theater, there is faintly the sound of silk bamboo and singing, the ethereal sound of singing and music and the sound of the fine waves in Wanshou Lake, it is more pure.
Coming to the Plum Garden, no one here can recognize Yan Liqiang's identity, and there are many young people who come to the Plum Garden to play at night, Yan Liqiang is not only dressed gorgeously, but also those young people who play in the Plum Garden, which is almost the same, so the tourists in the Plum Garden, no one knows, this young man who is strolling in the garden is just a guest of the Lord Thorn Shi, and is discussing the big deal with Lord Thorn Shi about getting involved in the salt industry.
Yan Liqiang found that he seemed to have a special relationship with the plum garden, everything in the plum garden seemed to be familiar, strolling in the plum garden, looking at the small island and water pavilion on the edge of Wanshou Lake, thinking that he killed Wang Haofei on that island last time he came here, Yan Liqiang had an illusion of time and space travel.
The last time he came here to kill people, but this time he came here waiting for the person who was going to kill him to appear.
The Wang family, who was once the tyrant of Huanglong County, has disappeared, and now, he has become a thorn in the side of many people.
The eagle in the sky that I felt before should be the means of the Shatu people, but the person who was hiding in the high-rise building in the plum garden and stared at him with murderous eyes is really hard to say whether the Shatu people are a gang or not, with Yan Liqiang's understanding of the Shatu people, since those Shatu people put an eye in the sky, then, it is not very likely that they will send someone to a place not far from the garden to stare at themselves, the person hiding in the tall building should not be with the Shatu people.
But this is only Yan Liqiang's own inference, it is also possible that the person hiding in the high-rise building is with the Shatu people, they are all coming for themselves, and the people who are in the group with the Shatu people may not necessarily be the Shatu people, but they may also be the lackeys and killers of the Shatu people, such a person, even if he comes to the high-rise building, he may not be able to arouse the vigilance of others.
Yan Liqiang thought in his heart, while strolling in the plum garden, Yan Liqiang passed by the high-rise building, that high-rise building is a seven-storey restaurant in the plum garden, the restaurant is lively and noisy, it is still open at the moment, Yan Liqiang did not go up, nor did he ask anyone, because he knew that according to the flow of customers in the restaurant, it is impossible for Xiao Er and the shopkeeper here to remember that someone was looking at the garden at a certain window at a certain time.
If someone really wants to kill him, then the person who wants to kill him will definitely wait for him to come out of the garden, keep an eye on his whereabouts, and then look for the right time to strike.
Sure enough, Yan Liqiang just walked around the plum garden for a while, and the feeling of being stared at from the air by something appeared again, and a black dot quietly appeared in the sky of Pingxi City.
Yan Liqiang pretended not to know, and after walking around the plum garden for a while, he walked out of the plum garden through another exit of the plum garden, and then called a carriage, and after getting into the carriage, he asked the coachman to take him to the Guoshu Museum in Pingxi City for a turn, pretending to visit the old place again.
Of course, Shi Dafeng and Shen Teng were not in the National Art Pavilion, and Yan Liqiang had already known about it.
Just a month ago, the new students of this class of the Guoshu Pavilion have gone out collectively, and under the leadership of Shi Changfeng and several other museum masters, they have traveled to Lanzhou, and they will not come back until the beginning of spring next year.
After taking a turn in the Guoshu Pavilion, Yan Liqiang, who "didn't see acquaintances", was very excited, and after leaving the Guoshu Pavilion, he saw that the time was already a little late, Yan Liqiang directly found a quiet inn called Qingyou Xiaozhu in Pingxi City, and asked for a small courtyard to live in.
......
In the middle of the night, Pingxi City was dark, and there were three figures, like three phantoms in the night, as if entering a no-man's land, over the high city wall in the north of Pingxi County, and then quickly approached Qingyou Xiaozhu.
The three ghostly figures were all dressed in black night suits, only three pairs of cold light and angry eyes were exposed, one of the three ghostly figures carried a longbow on his back, another figure carried a black scimitar at his waist, and the other held two short thorns in his hands.
When he came to the vicinity of the Qingyou Xiaozhu Inn less than fifty meters, the ghostly figure with a longbow on his back stopped suddenly, jumped slightly, and jumped to the third floor of an attic next to him, and then untied the war bow he was carrying, and put on a black metal arrow, and the longbow suddenly turned into a full moon, aiming at the small courtyard where Yan Liqiang was resting.
The other two black ghost figures continued to approach the small courtyard where Yan Liqiang lived, and after coming to the wall of the small courtyard, the two figures jumped lightly, like two feathers and silent dividends jumped on the wall, and then the two figures split into two, one came to the door of Yan Liqiang's locked room, and the other came to the window of the room, each put their hands on the door and window, and rushed in at the same time.
In an instant, in the dim courtyard, a sharp sword light rose in Yan Liqiang's room like a scorching sun......
Everywhere the knife light passed, the room where Yan Liqiang lived, like a piece of tofu and bricks, was actually split in two by the knife light, and the whole house collapsed from both sides, the two black phantoms who had just rushed in, a black phantom from the body to the hand of the short stab in the knife light like that room split in two, and a black phantom, spurting blood, flew out upside down......
In the room that was reversed from both sides, Lei Si, who was holding a terrifying machete nearly two meters long, sat on the bed in the room that was instantly razed to the ground with a golden knife, his eyes were like electricity, and he looked coldly at the black phantom who flew out upside down, and cursed in his mouth, "Grandma, let Lao Tzu wait until now to come, and you can take Lao Tzu's knife, you have some ability......"
After scolding a sentence, Lei Sitong stood up, walked with a tiger, one step at a time, and the machete in his hand swung out again, and another knife light spilled out......
A row of bamboo forests and a courtyard wall of more than ten meters in the courtyard of Qingyou Xiaozhu were divided into two again in the sword light, and at the same time, the other black phantom who vomited blood and turned over the courtyard wall in horror did not even make an exclamation, and the whole person's body and the scimitar in his hand were also divided into two in the sword light of Lord Shi, pouring and decaying like bricks and wood......
At the same time as the knife light in the small courtyard lit up, the tiles under the feet of the black phantom archer who opened his mouth on the roof of the attic in the distance to face the small courtyard suddenly shattered silently, and a big hand, like an iron hoop, suddenly grabbed the feet of the black-clothed archer, and with a bang, the entire roof of the attic was shattered, and the black-clothed archer holding the longbow was torn down at once.
Two booming explosions sounded in the attic of the small building, and the two walls of the attic burst in the explosion, and the whole attic trembled violently twice, and countless dust and broken tiles fluttered down.
After a few seconds, "Phew...... Phew...... "Liu Yucheng, the overseer of Pingxi County, spat out the dust in his mouth, like dragging a dead dog, dragged a man in black who did not have a single bone intact on his body and walked out from under the attic, and came to Lei Sitong in front of a lit torch, and ripped off the hood of the black-clothed phantom, and under the hood, a strange face of the Shatu man who was spurting blood and had long lost his breath of life was revealed.
"Dog's day, it's really a Shatu ............"
"My lord......" Wang Jianbei, who had a grim face, walked over with a group of sergeants with torches, "These three people came in from outside the city, not from the gathering area of the Shatu people in the city!"
"The Shatu people intend to assassinate their own officials, search the Shatu people's gathering area in the city as usual, and if there is any resistance and disobedience, they will be killed on the spot, and ......as many as they will kill," Lei Sitong coldly ordered.
"Yes!"
After giving the order, Lei Sitong looked at the three corpses in front of him, squinted his eyes, and said softly, "The killers of the great martial artist level among the three Shatu people, these Shatu people are really willing to pay their blood!"
"Then Yan Liqiang ......," Liu Yucheng asked.
"That person is better than a monkey, don't worry about him, we just need to wait for the news, these Shatu people are unlucky to meet him......" Lei Sitong shook his head slightly, glanced in the direction of the west outside the city, and a smile appeared on his face.
In a short time, the sound of the iron hooves of Lei Sitong's personal guard iron cavalry battalion shattered the dreams of countless people in Pingxi City, and rushed into Pingxi City, a large number of Pingxi City soldiers lit torches, murderously entered the gathering area of the Shatu people, and began to search for assassins from house to house, and encountered the rebellious and uncooperative Shatu people, and the sergeant who got the order broke into the door directly, and the spear in his hand poked directly through......
