Chapter 174: The Night of the Full Moon (Part II)

Walking out of the house, Xu Yingxiang stood in the yard and checked his clothes to make sure that there was no rudeness, and then walked out of his yard and came to the street. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The Mid-Autumn Festival is not cold, but the autumn breeze is cool, there is almost no one on the street, the candles on the lamp poles on the side of the road are swaying, which is even more bleak, Xu Yingxiang shrunk his neck and walked forward.

Not far out, a person turned out of the alley in front of him, very young, with his hands in his pockets, walking with his head down, walking not fast or slow, his steps have a peculiar rhythm in it, whether it is the rhythm of stepping, or the posture of lifting the foot, stretching the foot, and landing the foot, it will make people have an urge to imitate, as if it is normal and comfortable to walk like that.

At the moment when the two staggered, Xu Yingxiang felt a breeze passing, and he took a step forward and froze, as if time had stopped.

He seemed to see the young man's arm move, but it seemed that he didn't move, his heart was irritable and suffocated, and his throat suddenly ached, more so than when he was on fire, and his neck was hot and cold, and he felt very strange.

Xu Yingxiang raised his hand and touched it, smeared blood on his fingers, touched it again, and touched another wound, no, it was two, one on the left and right of the throat.

The irritability became stronger and stronger, and he finally realized that he couldn't breathe, his trachea was ruptured and pierced, and the breath he inhaled blew out of the wound, blowing up many blood bubbles, and only one person passed by just now, or it was just an illusion, the hallucination brought by the breeze.

Xu Yingxiang wanted to look back, but in the process of turning back, his body also lost strength, he fell to the ground, convulsively breathing, in the sky, the bright moon was slowly dimming, as if there were dark clouds in the air, and even the candlelight next to it was getting darker and darker, as if it was going to be extinguished.

There was a strange sound coming from his chest, like the lobes of his lungs longing for air were screaming, but Xu Yingxiang couldn't shout, and he couldn't even think of how to make a sound, and his vocal cords were broken, and the connection with the brain seemed to be broken, and he even lost the instinct to make sounds.

"It's strange, it's all instinct, why do I still know how to breathe, but I forgot how to speak." That was his last thought.

There was no one on the street, and another cold wind blew, wrinkling Xu Yingxiang's clothes, and the young man walking low also disappeared in place with this gust of wind.

…………

Chen Zhen rushed to the tenth target as fast as he could.

The route was planned, and when he learned that Lou Tianlu would hold a moon viewing party on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he came up with such a kill order.

Starting from afar, Liu Fei said that the time for all officials to arrive at Lou's house is about the same, and going early is like going to eat, and those officials don't dare to disturb Lou's dinner; Go late, fall behind the people, maybe people will be told bad things behind their backs, although they are all officials of Lou Tianlu, but there are some people who are not on the road, others pull parties and factions, they don't know anything, they are going to suffer, so there is this secret agreement.

The places where they live are different from each other, and if they have to arrive at about the same time, those who live far away have to go out first, and the addresses of all officials are known, so it is much easier to plan, and before waiting for the Mid-Autumn Festival to arrive, Chen Zhen has followed this assassination route several times.

Lou Jianliang is also the target, it is best to be able to kill outside, but the route cannot be mastered, whether it can be encountered is a problem, if you encounter it, you will kill, and if you can't meet it, you can only go to Lou's house.

Killing Lou Jianliang outside is not the point, the point is to let go of some people who follow Lou Jianliang's side, and it is also based on this reason that the murder does not collect the corpse, Yucheng will be in chaos, anyway, those officials will be chaotic if they don't go to Lou's house, it is better to mess up in advance.

…………

The tenth target is a person from the military department, surnamed You Mingzhi, who was born in the Jingcheng lion group and has martial arts, it is not so easy to get close to the assassination, Chen Zhen has already snatched the snake tooth knife from the snake tooth, came to the vicinity of the target's house, and put on the long placket that Liu Fei didn't know where to get it.

You Zhi has appeared, tall, strong, his right leg has been injured, he walks a little lame, observing the surrounding environment, Chen Zhen fell out of the alley when You Zhi was still more than ten meters away.

He glanced back at the alley, got up and ran towards You Zhi with his arms covered.

You Zhi was startled, and immediately stopped, seeing that it was a young soldier, with some blood on his face, and he didn't know if he was afraid of something in the alley.

He has become a civilian official, there are no soldiers with him, but his kung fu has not been put down, and he occasionally practices, and he is bolder, these soldiers in Yangcheng are incomparable with the lions, and the big insects in the vicinity are even more lazy like a group of rice buckets, and they make a fuss when they encounter a big fart.

Grabbing the young soldier, You Zhi asked loudly, "What are you running?" What happened? ā€

He was answered by a knife, which stabbed him in the chest and pierced him in the heart.

You Zhi's body was shocked, he looked down and saw the indifferent eyes of the young soldier, a mouthful of hot blood rose to his throat, and he raised his hand to fight, but he hung down weakly halfway up.

Chen Zhen pulled out the snake tooth knife and continued to run forward, as if he was really being chased by something.

…………

The son was killed, Lou Tianlu naturally didn't have the heart to eat, the broken corpses in the study, he couldn't stay, he went to the place where he usually played chess and chatted with the staff and strategists, stared at the teapot sent by the next person, and didn't speak for a long time.

Lou Jianliang is his most unsuccessful son, it is estimated that he will also be a loser when he becomes an adult, he doesn't like the third child, but after all, he is still his son, aside from the blood relationship, just talking about identity, his Lou Tianlu's son actually dared to kill, which made him especially angry.

The two men with sabers were still standing behind him.

After waiting for another five minutes or so, someone came to report that several corpses had been found in the city, all of them were officials who were going to come here to admire the moon today, and they were all the ones he trusted the most.

"This is someone who is going to deal with my Lou family, heh, it's not a small amount of courage." After venting in the study, Lou Tianlu still couldn't calm down, breathing heavily, and said with a sneer: "Kill my son, kill my subordinates, I'm afraid you will come to kill me." ā€

He turned his head to the messenger and asked, "Did you see who killed him?" ā€

"I was asking the surrounding residents, and some people saw a young man walking down the street, and they didn't pay much attention to it, and they weren't sure if he killed him." The person who reported the news was stared at by Lou Tianlu and his forehead was sweating.

"Didn't pay much attention?" Lou Tianlu laughed, gritted his teeth and said, "What are they doing with their eyes?" Gouge out all their eyes for me. ā€

The person who reported the news was stunned for a moment, sweating and sweating, and said, "It's all ...... It's all people who live nearby......"

The people who live nearby, that is, the people who live in the center of the city, and the people who can live in the center of the city, are basically those who have some backgrounds and backgrounds, or the families of those who have backgrounds and backgrounds, and kill all those people, and Yucheng will be really chaotic.

"What do you want to say?" Lou Tianlu's brows furrowed: "Do you think I handled it wrong?" Do you think I'll care about those who live nearby? ā€

"Do it right away." The man pressed his body very low, slowly took a few steps back, and just turned around to leave, Lou Tianlu's voice sounded behind him: "Find someone else to do it, cut off his ears first." ā€

The messenger was shocked, and when he stopped, he felt severe pain on both sides of his head at the same time, and felt that his shoulders were tapped, but it was his ears that fell off and hit his shoulders.

A middle-aged man walked past him, stepped on one of the fallen ears with one of them, and lifted his foot, which was already a mess, like a freshly driven wonton wrapper.

…………

Teams of soldiers ran out of the courtyard of Lou's house, and teams ran in, Chen Zhen stood in an empty house that no one lived in, standing in the dark and looking out.

Seventeen targets, except for Lou Zhikang, who has not yet returned, has died thirteen, including Lou Jianliang, that is to say, he failed to kill all the targets except for the Lou family, and the thirteenth target in the original plan has entered the palace of the Lou family.

Judging from the number of soldiers, the word "palace" lives up to its name, there are soldiers guarding it, and there are quite a few, in addition to the Bai family in Jingcheng, I am afraid that only the Yucheng Lou family has such treatment, and the Bai family should also acquiesce, after all, the people of the Bai family have just left, and it is impossible not to know this situation.

Chen Zhen was waiting for the movement outside the city, there was already chaos in the city, but this chaos was not enough for him to sneak into the Lou family compound quietly, and the soldiers inside had to withdraw a little more and retreat to the vicinity of the city wall.

A few hours earlier, he had gone to a mine a few kilometers away, killing all the guards near the mine, and none of them had escaped to report the news.

That was Liu Fei's request, to rescue those miners, Chen Zhen did not refuse, he also put forward his request - wait for the arrival of the wolf guard, and then work for the wolf guard.

Yangyan's bank in Yangcheng should have started to open, with the help of Zhao'an and Chai Zhizhou, the security issue should be guaranteed, the original plan was to develop in Yangcheng first, and then infiltrate into other cities, but the chaos in Yucheng is an excellent development opportunity, the Bai family will definitely send people to take over Yucheng again, before the people sent to completely master Yucheng, there are too many loopholes to drill, it is a great opportunity for rapid development.

The people of Yiyuhui are organizing miners to come, not to attack Yucheng, but to rush into the city to attract the attention of the soldiers, they must first be armed, counting the time when Chen Zhen killed those thirteen targets, it is too early to easily interfere with Chen Zhen's progress, and it is not afraid to be late, anyway, the Lou family will not leave.

At this time, the storyteller Liu Fei and two members of the Yiyu Society were drunk, they had practiced martial arts, and the target was the soldiers guarding the city gate.

In the dense forest, miners with various hoes and pickaxes waited for the signal at the city gate.
