Volume III, Chapter 683
Lin Haotian looked in the direction pointed by Chang Feng again, it was a very ordinary courtyard, the people in it seemed to be very rich, and a two-story building was built, where arrows could be shot directly into the street a hundred meters away, and there was only the roof of the upstairs.
He turned over and dismounted, without even knocking on the door, directly climbed over the courtyard wall and jumped into the courtyard.
Roland and Chang Feng also dismounted and jumped in.
There was no one in the courtyard, it was cleaned up cleanly, and it was so clean that it lacked popularity.
Lin Hao glanced around quickly, and then ran to the building. He didn't break in directly, but when he got to the front of the building, he jumped up, grabbed the eaves with both hands, and pushed his waist and eyes upwards again, and the person had already climbed the eaves, he took two steps forward, and then jumped up again, grabbed the eaves on the second floor, and jumped up.
His series of movements were carried out in one go, dexterous and swift, and when he reached the roof of the building, there was no trace of the assassin here!
However, in the corner of the roof, Lin Haotian keenly noticed that there were signs of loose bricks and tiles, he stepped forward, squatted down, and moved the loose bricks and tiles one by one, and the two steel hard bows were immediately revealed.
Chang Feng's judgment was right, the assassin was indeed a cold arrow shot here!
Lin Haotian picked up one of the steel bows, feeling heavy in his hand, he pulled the bowstring again, and judged that this bow must have at least seven stones, which is not something that normal people can pull at all.
When Lin Haotian was checking the steel bow, Roland and Chang Feng also went up to the roof, the two walked over, Roland squatted down and picked up another bow, she looked at it twice and exclaimed: "This is the bow of my Jin Kingdom!"
"What?" Lin Haotian narrowed his eyes.
"Your Excellency, please look!" Roland handed the bow to Lin Haotian and stretched out his finger to the inside of the steel bow. I saw that where she pointed out, there were three small characters with fly's heads imprinted-Ordnance Division.
Among the nations, only the weapon research institute of the Jin country is called the Ordnance Department, since the bow has the words "Ordnance Division", it means that the bow must be from the Jin country.
Lin Haotian looked down at the steel bow for a while, and asked, "Has my country developed such a steel bow?"
Roland shook his head slightly. He whispered, "Lord Hui, subordinates...... Not impressed. ”
"If this is not from our country, then someone is deliberately framing him!" As he spoke, he looked around, the assassin's assassination was so well arranged that he wanted to leave a trace of a hidden bow, which was obviously deliberately left for Yan Jun to see, which was equivalent to telling Yan Guo that this thing was done by the Jin people.
Kill Yin Xiang. Blaming the Jin country, and the timing of the blame is just right, reasonable and reasonable, this matter is really interesting!
The corners of Lin Haotian's mouth were raised, but a fine light shot out of his eyes, and he said faintly: "I have to find out these assassins, I really want to see who they are." What the hell is the purpose of doing this?"
As he spoke, there were shouts and footsteps outside. Lin Haotian, who was squatting on the roof of the building, looked down and saw that the tightly pressed Yan army had rushed into the alley, and it was obvious that the Yan army had also tracked down this side.
He looked down at the steel bow in his hand again, and said in a deep voice: "This bow can't fall into the hands of Yan Jun. His eyes were rolling as he spoke. After thinking for a moment, he said urgently, "Come with me!"
As he spoke, he grabbed two steel bows, jumped down the stairs, and rushed to the corner of the courtyard. Covering his armor with both hands, he quickly dug a large pit in the ground, put his two bows into the bottom of the pit, and then filled in the earth and buried it.
Luo Lan and Chang Feng, who came over, saw Lin Haotian's intentions and secretly said smartly. As soon as he buried his bow, the door of the courtyard that was knocked on the earth was kicked open by the Yan soldiers outside, and then more than a dozen Yan soldiers rushed in from the outside.
When they saw Lin Haotian in the courtyard, they couldn't help but be stunned, and the captain who led the team blurted out, "Why are you here!" He felt that his speed was enough, and he couldn't imagine that there was someone one step ahead of him.
Lin Haotian was very calm, there was no panic on his face, his brows were furrowed, his face was calm, and he said coldly: "I'll wait for the assassin to come here." As he spoke, his eyes deliberately fell on the badge on the other party's chest, and seeing that his badge was the emblem of the local army, he said proudly: "Your speed is too slow, rely on you, you can catch the assassin monster!"
The Yan soldiers were reprimanded by him and their faces became more and more ugly, although his military rank was not higher than theirs, but after all, it was the central army, and the local army could only endure it when he reprimanded him.
The captain of the Yan soldiers stared at him coldly for a moment, then turned back to the soldiers behind him and roared loudly: "Search for me! Don't miss any corner!
"Yes!" the soldiers rushed into the main room and the side room, and began to search for the assassin.
Lin Haotian, Luo Lan, and Chang Feng took this opportunity to retreat to a corner of the hospital.
Lin Haotian asked in a low voice, "Can Brother Chang tell which direction the assassin is running?"
Chang Feng lowered his head and pondered for a long time, Fang slowly shook his head.
Because of the relationship between the invisible eyes, his perception ability is very keen, coupled with his unfathomable cultivation, the range of perception is wide. He was sure that there were no skilled cultivators in this area, there were only two possibilities, the assassin either took the Scattered Immortal Pill and disguised himself as an ordinary person on the spot, or he had already fled and the person was no longer here, and now he could not do anything to judge the assassin's traces.
Seeing this, Lin Haotian pondered for a moment and said, "Go to the building and see if there will be any clues left." He took Roland and Chang Feng back to the building, first shouted out all the Yan soldiers inside, and then entered it.
Disappointingly, the building was so clean, spotless, and there were no clues to check it out, and it was clear that the Assassins were veterans.
Lin Haotian searched carefully twice in the building, but found nothing, and then had no choice but to leave.
According to the prior agreement, Lin Haotian, Luo Lan, and Chang Feng returned to the teahouse where they had just eaten breakfast, and when they came back, Shao Lin and Tonglei were already sitting inside.
Lin Haotian asked the three of him with his eyes, and Shao Lin and Tong Lei shook their heads.
Secretly saying a cunning assassin, Lin Haotian slowly sat down beside Shao Lin.
Roland followed, sat down and asked in a low voice, "Childe, what do we do now?"
Lin Haotian shrugged his shoulders and smiled, and said, "I can't do anything!" After all, this is the Yan Country, not the Jin Country, so they have no help. Movement is restricted, and it is almost impossible to find the Assassin in this situation.
Roland whispered angrily: "The assassins are hateful, they have even blamed our country, if they are found, they must not be spared." ”
Lin Haotian snorted and was happy. said: "What I'm interested in now is, where is the real Yin Xiang, has she calculated that someone might assassinate her, so she resorted to the means of transferring flowers and trees?"
Shao Lin continued: "If this is the case, this woman is too terrible. ”
Yes, it is terrible to be shrewd to the point of predicting a prophet. Lin Haotian narrowed his eyes.
Roland asked, "Recognized...... Who is going to kill Yin Xiang?"
Lin Haotian smiled bitterly: "It can be anyone, even Yan Ren himself." As he spoke, he shook his head to the crowd and said, "The land of right and wrong." We shouldn't stay long, let's go!"
"My lord, shall we go back to the inn?"
"We can't stay in Dazhang anymore, we have to hurry back to China!" Lin Haotian whispered as he walked out.
The assassination of the princess, even if it is just a stand-in, but this is not a trivial matter, presumably it will not be long before the city of Dazhang will have to be completely sealed and martial law, and the house to door will be investigated. If you really find out your own people, things will be difficult to do.
It's just that at this time, Lin Haotian and the others want to leave Dazhang again. It's too late.
When they reached the north city gate, the city gate was already closed, and the city gate was full of soldiers of the Yan army, one by one with arrows wound and swords out of their sheaths, as if facing a great enemy. Looking at the city wall, the Yan army is also three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, the armor is like a forest, and the soldiers patrolling and walking one after another.
Looked at. Lin Haotian and the others could only reluctantly return to the inn.
The group gathered in Lin Haotian's room, frowning, and silent.
Now they are trapped in Dazhang City, four people, only Lin Haotian can speak the standard Yanguo accent, once the Yan army checks over, they will definitely be exposed, even if they are not assassins, they have to be recognized as assassins by the Yan army, if they are carried by such a big black cauldron for no reason, it will be too depressing.
"No!" Luo Lan stood up violently, walked to Lin Haotian, and said urgently: "My lord, we can't wait for Yan Jun to come to the door in the inn, we have to find a way out of the city!"
"The city gate has been blocked, I'm afraid none of us want to get out without the edict of the county head!" Shao Lin reminded on the side.
"Then we'll force our way out!" Roland said with a flushed face: "With our martial arts, some soldiers defending the city can't stop us!"
Shao Lin still shook his head and said: "Outside Dazhang City, one horse Pingchuan, even if we can forcibly climb over the city wall, we will inevitably be pursued by the Yan cavalry, how can we outrun their four legs on our two legs?
Except for Lin Haotian, none of them are demonic martial artists, and once they fall into the siege of ten thousand armies, no one dares to guarantee that they will be able to get out of trouble.
I knew in my heart that Shao Lin was reasonable, but Roland was still unconvinced: "But we can't just do nothing and wait here!"
Lin Haotian, who had been silent, looked up at Roland, and said with a smile: "There is no fire yet, what are you panicking about!" As he spoke, he knocked back the badge on his chest, and said, "Don't forget, we are now the cavalry of the Central Army of the Yan Kingdom!"
"What do you mean by ......"
"You're right, we can't sit here, at least we have to go out into the streets to search for assassins and interrogate the people, just like the rest of the Yan Army!" he stood up, sighed softly, and muttered, "It seems that we are tired today." ”
Everyone looked at each other, afraid that the person who was checking would instead check others, which was also a way out of the way.
According to Lin Haotian's intentions, everyone re-emerged from the inn, rode war horses, and pretended to patrol the streets.
However, Lin Haotian did not walk around, but deliberately approached in the direction of the county capital.
Dangerous places can sometimes become safe places, patrolling near the county capital, he can observe the movements of the Yan army nearby, and when he has to do so, he can also directly rush in and capture the county head as a life talisman for his own people.
Lin Haotian and the six of them deliberately patrolled around the county capital, but it really didn't arouse the idea of the Yan army, and when they were about to walk to the main gate of the county capital again, Chang Feng suddenly whispered: "Wait a minute, there is a martial artist at the gate of the county capital!"
The underworld warrior who can make Chang Feng mention is definitely not an ordinary person, Lin Haotian and the others immediately grabbed the reins of the war horse, and then strolled out of the corner. Look towards the main entrance of the county capital.
I saw a group of people dressed as ordinary people arguing with the soldiers guarding the gate of the county capital, and after waiting for a while, there was a sudden scolding from the crowd: "This palace is a princess, you dare to stop this palace again, this palace wants your head!"
Lin Haotian's eyes lit up, and he looked closely. It's a pity that there are too many people in front of the door, and he can't see the female figure who spoke, but through her familiar voice and tone, he can basically be sure that it should be Yin Xiang.
"Princess?" The soldiers guarding the door were happy, looked Yin Xiang up and down a few times, and said, "Little girl, if you are a princess, then I am still a king!"
"You ......" the woman was obviously angry. After waiting for a while, she spoke again and said, "This is a token of the palace, you show it to the head of the county, and he will come out to pick up the palace." ”
"Little girl, I think you better stop making trouble, this is not a place for you to laugh casually, get rid of it!" Yan Jun, who was guarding the door, reminded him kindly.
"Show you the token of the palace, you don't believe it. Show you the token of this palace, you still don't believe it, you ...... Damn it!" The woman also looked helpless against the soldiers guarding the door. After waiting for a while, she screamed again: "Xing Lei!"
"The villain is here!"
"Bengong is going to enter the county capital now, if anyone dares to stop Bengong, you will kill him for Bengong!" After speaking, the woman in the crowd strode up the steps.
It was not until this time that Lin Haotian in the distance saw her figure clearly. There is no need to approach, no need to look at her face, just look at her back from a distance, Lin Haotian can confirm 100% that this woman is Yin Xiang.
What a fragrance. The city has been turned upside down, and her real body is finally willing to show up! Lin Haotian felt funny and angry.
Yin Xiang no longer rambled with the soldiers guarding the door, and went directly inside, how could the guards sit idly by, and immediately someone stepped forward, blocking Yin Xiang's way, and said in a deep voice: "Little girl, don't mess around here......"
Before he finished speaking, Xing Lei, who was following Yin Xiang, had already shown the saber at his waist, only to see a cold glow in the air, and then the guard who came up to stop him let out a cry of pain and staggered back.
After all, it was his own people, and Xing Lei also had mercy on his subordinates, his sword only cut a shallow hole in the guard's thigh, and he didn't want to seriously injure him, he didn't want to kill him.
But even so, the surrounding guards were also shocked, and the people were stunned for a moment, and then they roared angrily, and rushed up, surrounding Yin Xiang's dozen or so people.
There was a mess outside the gate of the county capital, and people immediately came out inside, and in addition to rushing out of many soldiers, a general also came out.
The Yan General glanced at it for a moment, then asked, "What's going on?"
"Back to General Li, this thief girl claims to be a princess, and she also connived at her men to hurt one of our brothers!" a soldier stepped forward to explain.
"Oh?" the Yan general was stunned, looked Yin Xiang up and down, and asked, "Princess, are you...... Which princess is it?"
Yin Xiang held her head high, only glanced at Yan Jiang from the corner of her eye, her eyes had already risen to the sky, and she said proudly with her hands behind her back: "This palace is the third princess!"
"Presumptuous!" General Yan was furious, as soon as the third princess was assassinated in the county town, someone came to the county capital to pretend to be, this is inevitably too big! He glared at Yin Xiang angrily, and his hand also held the sword under his rib.
"Who the presumptuous person is, we will naturally know. Yin Xiang didn't take Yan Jiang in his eyes at all, raised the token in his hand again, and said, "You take this, go and show it to the county head Zhou Cong, and let him come out immediately to pick it up!"
Yan Jiang looked at the token in Yin Xiang's hand and did not react for a long time.
He didn't know Yin Xiang, nor did he know Yin Xiang's token, but this seemingly ordinary, plain dress and young woman exuded an amazing momentum and arrogance, which was by no means possessed by ordinary people, unless she was a madman.
He hesitated for a while, slowly stretched out his hand, took the jade plate in Yin Xiang's hand, looked at it carefully, only felt that it was very exquisite, and did not see anything special, but he still said in a deep voice: "You wait here, I'll go and meet the county head!" After speaking, he glanced at the surrounding soldiers and asked them to keep an eye on Yin Xiang's group, and he himself turned around and returned to the county capital.
After only about ten minutes of waiting, I heard the sound of chaotic and rapid footsteps in the county capital, and after a short time, a short and obese middle-aged man ran out panting and sweating profusely.
When he got outside, he fixed his eyes and saw that the plain-clothed woman standing in front of the gate was not Yin Xiang or who?
The middle-aged man was shocked, and before the words came out, the person had already knelt on the ground with a thud, and said in a trembling voice while kowtowing forward...... Forgiveness!"
As the head of the county, he had seen the body of the assassinated 'Yin Xiang', and naturally knew that it was fake, but he immediately had a question in his heart, where did the real princess go, and now, this question has finally been answered, seeing the princess standing in front of him peacefully, it also made him mention that his heart in his throat finally fell.
"Forgiveness?!" Yin Xiang lowered his eyes and looked down at Zhou Cong who was kneeling at his feet, and said coldly: "Zhou Cong, if this palace does not use a stand-in, then it is this palace itself who is strewn on the streets today! As the head of the county, your sins are unforgivable!"
As she spoke, she flicked her sleeves and strode away from Zhou Cong, before entering the county capital, she also deliberately pointed to the surrounding Yan soldiers and generals, and said angrily: "It's all a group of wastes with eyes and beads!"
Knowing that she was indeed a princess, all the Yanjun were scared out of a cold sweat, pulling their heads one by one, and they didn't dare to breathe.
As for the county head Zhou Cong, he was already paralyzed on the ground in fright, Yin Xiang and his subordinates entered the county capital for a while, but he still knelt on the ground, and his subordinates from the left and right came up to support him and pull him up. (To be continued......)
