Chapter 274: Assassin
γSystemγIf you find a colorful tiger, you can collect it as a famous mount!
Sure enough, this time there was also a hint.
However, it was an unknown pet before, but this time it has become a colorful tiger.
Maybe it's the first time I've been a pet, because it doesn't exist in the famous mounts, it's unknown. And I received a tiger girl before, and there have been records, and the second time is a colorful tiger directly?
That's probably the truth!
Ning Ze accepted it as a famous mount, and the tiger that was lassoed disappeared, and the soldiers at the scene were frightened, thinking that they were hallucinating, and looked around vigilantly.
"Brother, how did the big worm disappear?" Dewey was also flustered, raised the silver snake spear to look around nervously, and leaned over to Ning Ze's side at the same time.
Wang Wei, Ding Mu and others also quickly surrounded Ning Ze and Mi Yan, vigilant around.
"Could it be that this big insect has already become a sperm?" Ding Mu said nervously while checking his surroundings, "If that's the case, Master Hou should hurry down the mountain!"
"Yes, yes, big brother, this matter is too strange, I'll hurry down the mountain!" Dewey nodded hurriedly.
"Don't panic!" Ning Ze shouted loudly, "Fang Cai is lonely to put away that big worm and tame it." Now that the big worm is a lonely mount, there is no need to worry!"
Hearing this, the soldiers were quite surprised.
"Big brother, really?" asked Dewey hurriedly.
"Master Hou, do you mean that such a fierce big worm has been subdued by you?" Ding Mu leaned over, "Fang is Lord Hou's spell, where did the big worm go?"
"Yes, where did the big worm go?" the soldiers were full of doubts.
"Go back to the camp first!" Ning Ze ordered, "Also, send someone to inform the hunters that the big worm has been caught and can be withdrawn!"
So someone immediately fired a cannon to inform the hunters on the mountain.
Back at the camp, Liu Yuanxiang brought someone over, worried about checking on Ning Ze, and was relieved to see that he was not injured: "How is it?"
"The big insect has been subdued, don't worry!" Ning Ze replied, "The nearby villagers can go to this mountain to hunt and chop firewood with peace of mind in the future." β
"Where is the big worm?" Liu Yuanxiang looked at the back of the team curiously, there was no cage where the tiger was kept, and he didn't see the tiger.
"Push the cage prepared in advance!" Ning Ze ordered, and the soldier immediately pushed over a large sturdy wooden cage.
Ning Ze ordered the soldiers to retreat and stay away from the cage. Walk to the front of the cage yourself, select the Colorful Tiger Mount from the Designer tab, and summon it to the wooden cage.
The next moment, the tiger that had just been arrested appeared in the cage, Ning Ze closed the wooden cage with his hand, reached in in front of everyone, and gently stroked its head.
The subdued tiger was very well-behaved in front of Ning Ze, like a house cat.
All the soldiers were even more shocked by Ning Ze's "spell", such a terrifying king of beasts in the mountains, so easily tamed, the changes before and after were too great!
Dewey couldn't help but be curious, and stepped forward to touch it, but it was still a meter or two away from the cage, and the tiger quickly got up and roared angrily at him, which was deafening.
Dewey was startled, and turned his head to see Ning Ze stretching out his hand to soothe the tiger and make it quiet again, so he asked suspiciously, "Brother, isn't it tamed?"
"It's just being tamed by Lone," Ning Ze replied, "and to others, including you, it's still an extremely fierce and wild tiger." β
"So?" Dewey regretted, "Brother is really powerful, if I can tame him so that we can get close, it would be good!"
"If you have time, you can tame some beast mounts and give them to you. β
"Really?" Dewey's eyes lit up, "If the younger brother can catch a big worm, the elder brother can tame it and only listen to the younger brother's orders?"
"It should work. β
"If it's any other beast, my brother might tame it?" asked Dewey.
"I haven't tried, I'm not sure!"
"Why don't you try it next time?"
"Let's talk about it then!" Ning Ze said with a smile, "Now that the goal is reached, it will only take half a day." Hurry up and let the hunters come back and assemble, and go down the mountain to the city together. β
"It will take some time for the hunter to come down," Liu Yuanxiang said, "The roast sheep is already ripe, so it is better to wait while eating." β
"Good idea!" Ning Ze ordered to put the tiger he had just caught aside, and beckoned the soldiers to go back and enjoy the roast sheep.
While eating and waiting, after a while, the hunters came to gather with wooden cage trap carts, and unexpectedly, in addition to the sheep that were originally brought over as bait, there was also an additional deer and five or six goats in the trap.
Seeing the tiger in the cage, the hunters were shocked, and they were captured alive when they learned that there were no casualties, and in a short period of time, they were tamed by Hou Ye with "spells", and one by one they threw themselves to the ground.
"Master Hou," the old hunter came to Ning Ze and said respectfully, "Although we didn't catch the big worm, the trap attracted several prey. This deer, as well as a few goats, were attracted by our sheep cry, thinking that they had met a companion, but they strayed into the trap car and were arrested. β
"Goats are drawn to it, and that's understandable. Ning Ze smiled, "What's the matter with this deer? Will it mistake the sheep for its companion?"
"It's really rare, maybe it's stupid," replied the old hunter, "but this venison is still quite delicious, and the lord can take it home and enjoy it." β
"Husband," Liu Yuanxiang felt pity when he saw the pitiful wild deer in the cage, "This palace wants to build a garden, and it needs a deer to decorate the scenery." Why don't you send it to the main palace? β
Ning Ze turned his head and saw that her eyes were earnest, and he said in his heart that venison is not a rare thing, and it is often found at banquets on weekdays, so he nodded and said, "Since the princess likes it, then keep it." β
Liu Yuanxiang was overjoyed and relieved.
"Come, come, come, you have also worked hard, eat the roast sheep together, and then go down the mountain and return to the city. Ning Ze beckoned the hunters to gather around the campfire and enjoy the food.
The food here was lively, and several figures quietly came along the mountain road, approaching with the sound of talking, hiding in the bushes that were taller than people nearby, and secretly observing.
There were seven people in total, all dressed in black, with strips of black cloth tied around their heads, and all long bows and short knives.
They hid on the hillside a mile away from Ning Ze's camp and watched from a distance.
"With so many soldiers and a tight defense, how do you start?" a man in black asked worriedly.
The younger man in black condescended, carefully observed Ning Ze's camp, and whispered: "Ning Ze went up the mountain to hunt tigers, and Princess Yuanxi went with him, so he was well defended. I never thought that the tiger in the mountain was caught by it, and it was really powerful. If you want to kill Ning Ze, it's not impossible! With my archery skills, I can easily shoot through the wooden cage within a hundred steps. Let's try to get as close to each other as carefully as possible, and wait for me to shoot through the cage and release the tiger. As soon as the tiger came out, Ning Ze and his subordinates would be in chaos. The soldiers protect Princess Yuanxi, and we can take the opportunity to shoot Ning Ze to death!"
"But in case the other party protects Ning Ze......"
"Impossible! Princess Yuanxi is still of great use to Ning Ze, not to mention that the two are already married, it is impossible to give her up. The man in black said, "Even if the soldiers protect Ning Ze, the tiger is in chaos, and we are hiding in the shadows, we can definitely find an opportunity!"
"In that case, follow your plan!" the man in black next to him nodded, "No matter what the price is, you must kill Ning Ze!"
"Let's go!" The man in black led the order, and the seven people hid in the bushes, quietly moved down, and set off towards the camp where Ning Zejun was.
After Ning Ze opened the virtual map, he didn't close it. After all, in addition to tigers, there must be other fierce beasts in this mountain forest.
Everyone sat around the bonfire, eating roast mutton, chatting without a word, and the atmosphere was good.
A red dot suddenly appears on the virtual map, marking 7 people.
Ning Ze found out for the first time, but he didn't react immediately, but thought secretly.
Judging by the direction in which this red dot appears, it does not come from deep in the mountains.
The red dots are arranged in shape, and they move quite regularly, not like a herd of wild beasts, but obviously human.
In other words, these seven people are targeting their own faction, and most likely against their own assassins.
If it's a herd of beasts, there's a tiger here, how dare they come close?
Back in Golden State, he encountered assassins again, whose subordinates are this wave?
Is it the subordinates of the princes who have been wiped out by themselves, who have come to take revenge? Or is it an assassin sent by one of Lu Cong, Ma Jian, and Tang Niu?
Or, is it someone within their own side who is not used to seeing their "powerful ministers" as the princess?
The other party knew that there were a large number of soldiers and horses here and dared to come over, so what did he have to rely on?
Let's see what they plan first, anyway, they already know that it is impossible to assassinate themselves or the people around them.
So Ning Ze pretended not to see it, chatting and talking with his wives, while eating mutton and deliberately changing positions, just facing the direction of the red dot.
Because of the distance, and believing that they are well hidden. In addition, Ning Zejun was stationed by the river, and the river was very loud, which could cover up the subtle sounds in the distance. Seven men in black hide in the shadows and keep approaching.
Finally, about a hundred meters away from the camp, under the cover of the terrain, he avoided the eyes and ears of the patrolling soldiers in the Ningze camp, pulled a bow and arrows for the black-clothed man, and aimed at the wooden cage where the tiger was kept.
He pulled the bow and arrow to the extreme, and when he let go, the arrow shot out with amazing power with a sound of breaking through the air, hitting the wooden cage door accurately.
The arrows actually shot through the sturdy wooden fence, causing the door lock to fall with a clatter, and the wooden door to open directly.
"It's successful!" The man in black at the head showed excitement and whispered to his companions, "Next, let's see the tiger disrupt the enemy formation, and I'll look for an opportunity to assassinate Ning Ze!"
"Good!" the men in black all drew their bows and arrows and got ready, concentrating.
"What's going on, what's going on?" The moment the wooden cage door was broken, the soldiers in Ning Ze's camp were indeed in chaos, and when they saw the tigers walking out of the cage, they were frightened one by one, and hurriedly put on a defensive posture.
Liu Yuanxiang and the others, who didn't know why, hid beside Ning Ze one after another, looking at the tiger nervously.
Dewey, Wang Wei, Ding Mu and other generals quickly came over to protect and vigilantly looked around.
When Ning Ze saw this scene, he immediately understood: "If you want to use the tiger to create chaos, you are really smart!
Immediately give the order to let the Tiger mount attack the enemy.
The tiger turned around and roared and flew towards the location of the seven men in black, scaring them into distraction, and their heads were instantly confused!
