Chapter 168: Peerless Lot
readx;? The people Han saw were far more than reading the batch after the ambush nearby, and he followed from afar. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 There are a lot of info fronts, but they just follow along, and they don't have any calculations. Presumably, these people are the eyes of those nobles of the major families who monitor them.
With Meng Han's reminder, everyone in the team immediately fell into a strange fog. The guards who came out of Huangsha Town, of course, knew what was going on, no one panicked, and everyone clenched their weapons. Quietly waiting for orders.
There was still some distance from the ambush area before the carriage was opened, and Meng Han stepped out of it. The two little maids and Joey followed inseparably, and Mr. Kevin was forcibly left in the car because he had no combat power. Yuzu was very curious, he didn't know what Meng Han was going to do, and he didn't know why Meng Han said that there were visitors, but now was obviously not the time to say this, and Mr. Kevin also stayed in the car honestly, saying nothing, quietly waiting for the result.
"Stay around the carriage!" Meng Han had to order his own guards. Those people knew that he had killed the Hengfeng Great Sword Master, but they actually came to assassinate, presumably everyone's strength was not bad.
"Give me the crossbow. "Now is not the time to talk nonsense, Meng Han took the strong shrug of the good strings from Joey's side. Aiming at one of the tallest guys in the fog, he slashed the crossbow machine.
Maybe it was a group of people who were in ambush, and the killing machine was too strong, and the killer didn't show this sudden murderous aura against him. By the time the current strength reaches the body, it's too late. With a snort, the arrow passed through his body. Before the killer even made a sound, he had already returned to the underworld.
The strange fog made all the killers can't help but curse the ghost weather, and the net heard some movement, but it was raining in the sky, and all the sounds were covered. Even the sound of Meng Han's bowstring flicking and the sound of the arrow breaking through the air was covered flawlessly.
Several killers in a row were all killed by Meng Han in this almost sneak attack. Meng Han's convoy did not pass by for a long time, and the guys in the ambush finally showed an abnormality, and they didn't care about the ambush at the moment, after a certain killer gave an order, a group of killers immediately rushed over to kill here.
The ambush attack turned into a strong attack, and when the advantage of concealment was lost, these soaked fellows who had been drenched by the heavy rain appeared, facing themselves a group of bowed and unsheathed troops.
After giving the order to attack just now, the killer who gave the order didn't have time to use a strong crossbow, so he was directly rewarded by Meng Han with a ground stab. The leader of the killer has already appeared, and the next attack is not slow, and the body is not slow to react. With a single sword, he slashed at the ground thorn that popped up, and his body jumped into the air.
The ground thorn broke in response, and when the killer leader's face showed a smile, the broken ground thorn still popped up frantically, piercing the killer leader's belly. until he was lifted high in the air by the thorns of the ground. The killer still couldn't understand why the ground thorn that had been cut off by him was still growing upward. Moreover, how can the tip still be so sharp?
Two-stage bow and arrow shooting, even if these killers are good, hindered by the rain, coupled with the sudden lightning that appeared nowhere, the whole body is sore, and the whole body is sore, and they are quickly shot into hedgehogs by everyone's bows and arrows.
"These people aren't very good!" Meng Han stood among the corpses on the ground, as if he couldn't believe that he had done all this with just a bow and arrow. Knowing that his guards had killed the Hengfeng Great Sword Master, and sending a bunch of little minions out to send them to death, wasn't it a fool? Meng Han couldn't understand the thoughts of the people.
"Take away all the valuable things on these corpses, and you can sell them for a lot of money. The corpses are all left to the sheriff!" Meng Han's order spread far away on the sunny streets after the rain, and it is estimated that those surveillance eyeliners have already heard it. Of course. This is what Meng Han deliberately wanted them to hear.
"What? That, the guy was assassinated?" Just when Meng Han returned to the inn, the nobles of the major families also knew the news of Meng Han's assassination: "Which bastard did this?"
In addition to being angry, everyone also began to think about how there could be such a large-scale assassination of nobles in the Boulder Castle. Just when Meng Han was going to auction the silk industry a few days later, suddenly such an act was to prevent everyone from getting this. The industry of laying golden eggs?
"Investigate! Investigate!" even His Majesty the Grand Duke heard the news. It also exploded with thunder and rage. In the capital of the principality, under the nose of His Majesty the Grand Duke, there was such an assassination of nobles. The first reaction of the enraged Grand Duke was to call the sheriff over and scold him, and then order a thorough investigation.
Not only the sheriff, but also the major families have sent people to investigate. A small assassination operation that involved the whole body, presumably this was not expected by the organizers. After this incident, it is simply impossible to plot against Meng Han in the Boulder Castle.
Who doesn't want the silk industry? It doesn't seem to be a fierce person who leads the truth. Listen to his tone, as long as the starting price is out. There's nothing bad to talk about, it's just a profiteer. But for the major families, things that can be legally solved with money are much more cost-effective than taking certain risks, especially in this situation where there are too many monks and too little porridge.
Before everyone could stop quietly, there was even more shocking news from Meng Han's side. Meng Han directly found the auction house, and Meto auctioned the magic wand in his hand. When everyone first heard about it, they didn't pay much attention to it, what kind of thing was a magic wand in the hands of a magic waste wood, and it was worth auctioning? However, when Meng Han and the most senior appraisal experts found by the auction house claimed that it was a magic wand made from the branches of the Tree of Life, it immediately caused an uproar in the Boulder Castle.
What is the life law power, although everyone has never seen it and doesn't know what it looks like, but the elven clan's supreme boat artifact life scepter is said to be made from a certain section of the tree of life. According to legend, the Life Power Technique can almost live and die in flesh and bones. Although Meng Han's tip was not as good as the Scepter of Life, it was at least made of the tree technique of the Tree of Life, even if it did not have such a magical effect. Then the next point, it should be possible to prolong life, right?
As soon as the news came out, not only the major nobles went crazy, but even His Majesty the Grand Duke began to be tempted. Meng Han's magic, which I heard from the court magician before, was taught by the people around the Elf Empress, and I didn't believe it a little, but as soon as this life magic technique was launched. All these doubts were immediately put behind me. How could someone who was not close to the elven clan get the staff of life? Meng Han was not the only one in this world who had communicated with the elven clan. People, however, can get the staff of life. But there is definitely only Meng Han.
When it was determined that the magic staff in Meng Han's hand was the staff of life. His Majesty the Grand Duke even had an impulse. I want to order Meng Han to dedicate this magic wand to him, even if it is to give him an official and a knight. His Majesty the Grand Duke is no longer in good health. However, although the interior of the principality seems to be smooth and smooth now, he knows it. It's just a superficial silence. Once there is a problem with his body, everything in the principality will be different.
It's just that the news of the Staff of Life came from the auction house. If His Majesty the Grand Duke only knew about it, maybe there would still be a chance, but now who doesn't know that the Staff of Life is going to be auctioned, and if he wants to ask for it forcibly, he doesn't need to ask, he will definitely be opposed by all the great nobles, which is something that even His Majesty the Grand Duke may not be able to accept, so he can only stop it. If you want it, you can only follow the rules of the auction, and the one with the highest price will get it.
"Who told me not to bother with that country boy?" His Majesty the Grand Duke's anger at this time was almost greater than ever. Obviously, after the last bathroom incident, he heard that Meng Han might have something to do with the elves, but there were confidants who wanted him to pay attention to Bhutan. I knew that if I had known this, I had given Meng Han the greatest support at that time, and now that I have a way to extend my life, how could I be so embarrassed now?
Remorse filled His Majesty's heart, and at the same time made him more and more angry, and after remembering the fellow who had said these things to him at that time, His Majesty did not say a word, and resigned him from all his duties. He took away his title of nobility, and then sent to a remote place, never to be seen again. After calming down, he began to order the collection of gold coins and prepare to compete for the Staff of Life at the auction.
His Majesty the Grand Duke is not alone in regretting it. When Lord Marquis heard that Meng Han was actually going to auction the Staff of Life, he almost regretted his intestines. Since Francis first returned from Yellow Sands, he relied on Francis and Lucy's descriptions to know that the magic staff in Meng Han's hand was the staff of life.
However, his later misjudgment made him feel that Meng Han was unlikely to have a more intimate connection with the elves. Therefore, he also expressed doubts about the staff of life, but now it is good that Meng Han actually announced the auction directly. Originally, it was his own exclusive news, maybe he could get Meng Han's friendship by selling it to Meng Han at that time, but now he had to maintain such a relationship awkwardly.
For the staff of life, for the sake of the silk industry, even many great families may not be able to come up with a lot of gold coins at once, so they can only take out a batch of treasures treasured by the family while raising money everywhere, and hand them over to the auction house, intending to auction them first.
