Chapter 49: There Are Assassins
At the same time, in an ordinary house.
A young man dressed in a gorgeous costume was staring in the direction of the Jiangdu Palace, and a trace of essence flashed in his eyes from time to time. Under the dim light, it can be faintly seen that he is handsome and extraordinary, with an unparalleled temperament, and there is a calmness that does not match his age between his eyebrows.
There was also an old slave standing beside him.
"Fu Bo, according to Yu Wenhua and the information given, at this time, the banquet in the palace should be over, right? The people you arranged are ready to go. ”
"Yes."
The man known as Fuber trembled and took out a signal flare from his bosom and lit it.
The beam of the flare was particularly dazzling in the dark sky, and some children who had not yet fallen asleep thought that someone was setting off fireworks, and climbed the window to watch happily.
"Master, do you think this Yu culture is trustworthy? I always felt that this person was extremely cunning and had to be guarded against. Fauber rubbed his hands together and returned to the young man.
The young man sighed secretly and said softly: "I naturally know this, but shrewd hunters often appear in the form of prey, Yu Wenhua thinks that we are his prey, but who is the prey, it is too early to say." ”
Hearing this, Fauber said no more.
In today's world, there are not many people who can always gain insight into the overall situation, and it is even more rare to have a young existence like the master. His words seem to contain the magic of unconditional trust.
At the same time, Sima Dejiao and Lai Hu'er left the Jiangdu Palace together and walked on the street.
They were followed only by a few ordinary soldiers who were keeping them safe.
The distance between the Jiangdu Palace and their mansion is not very far, at most half a pillar of incense can be reached, even if this place is not lively in the past, you can vaguely see some pedestrians in a hurry.
But today it's strange.
The silence around is terrifying, and only some barking dogs can be heard from time to time.
"Come on General." Sima Dejiao subconsciously became vigilant.
"You noticed that, too?"
Lai Hu'er looked introverted: "It seems that you, like me, didn't drink too much just now, and can barely stay awake at this time." But...... Anyone would dare to ambush us outside the palace? If so, who? Yu Culture & ? ”
"Yu Wenhua shouldn't be so rampant, right?" Sima Dejiao also couldn't guess: "While it's safe now, let's go back to the palace first, and talk about it tomorrow." ”
Today they came to the Jiangdu Palace to participate in the banquet held by Yang Guang, so they didn't dare to bring too many people over, and at the moment, their own garrison strength was a little insufficient, and if something unexpected happened, it would be extremely unfavorable for them.
However, before Lai'er could respond, at the corners on both sides of the road, there was a faint sound of footsteps coming quickly, and then in the blink of an eye, several black-clothed figures appeared in sight.
"Sure enough, there are assassins."
The vigilance just now turned into a reality, and the faces of everyone present changed at the same time, and they couldn't help but pull out the knives on their bodies.
"General Protection, Marshal Sima!"
Several soldiers roared angrily.
"Whew!"
The sound stopped abruptly.
The man who spoke was struck in the neck by a long sword taken out by a black-clothed figure, and his eyes were wide open and he fell to the ground!
This was clearly with the determination to kill, and the remaining soldiers were briefly confused, all panicked and shocked.
"Kill!"
In this case, Lai Hu'er and Sima Dejiao glanced at each other, and the two instantly burst out with unprecedented momentum, fighting with the black-clothed figure that plundered them, the little drunkenness in their minds dissipated, and Lai Hu'er was the first to cut off the arm of a black-clothed figure, and blood splattered.
The momentum came out in an instant.
The panic of several soldiers was slightly better.
It's a pity that they are not as brave as Laihu'er, and after a round of confrontation, the soldiers vomited blood and couldn't bear to die, so there were only two people left on the field, Laihu'er and Sima Dejiao.
Including Sima Dejiao, he was also stabbed in the back, and he gasped in pain.
"Marshal Sima, let's rush out together, and if we can go, one by one." Seeing this, Laihu'er roared angrily, and he realized that when these black-clothed figures fought with them, they were not as ruthless as they were to the soldiers, and they were rushing towards the vital point.
Instead, they singled out those non-lethal parts, which was obviously to capture the two of them alive.
"Understood."
Sima Dejiao knew that now was not the time to grind, so he raised his knife to kill a black-clothed figure, and swept out with an arrow, however, the number of black-clothed figures was too large, and as soon as he walked out of more than ten meters, he was surrounded by several people and started fighting again.
These people are not in a hurry, like cats and mice, letting Sima Dejiao and Lai Hu'er keep wielding knives, consuming their physical strength.
When the physical strength is exhausted, you can only obediently tie your hands and arrest it.
Coming to Hu'er's side, he saw that Sima Dejiao was surrounded, and he had the heart to support, but his situation was also not good, and the man in black fought with him in close quarters, entangled him to the death, at this time, not to mention escaping, it was difficult to fight out of the encirclement.
"Bastard, stabbing outside the Jiangdu Palace, even if you catch us, you can't escape, and those who know each other are now quickly go, or they don't know how to die." Laihu'er's eyes were anxious, and he kept scolding angrily.
The black-clad figures were expressionless, looking at him as if they were looking at a dead man.
Lai Hu'er's heart sank immediately, it seemed that these black-clothed figures were similar to the group of dead soldiers who had entered the palace to assassinate His Majesty, they had been ready to die alone before they came, and the verbal threat could not shock them at all.
Suddenly, Laihu'er's gaze swept to a large number of figures behind him.
"Grandpa Yang!" He glared at him and roared in surprise and delight.
That's right, the person who appeared at this moment was Yang Gonggong!
These black-clothed figures chose to do it after the banquet, and this timing was certainly a good choice, but they did a lot of calculations, but they only missed the thousands of hidden brocade guards in the Jiangdu Palace, and this group of brocade guards guarded not only the palace, but also the range of miles around the palace.
The attack on Laihu'er and Sima Dejiao almost happened, and Gonggong Yang heard the rumors, so he hurriedly brought some brocade guards to support.
Looking at the two fierce generals who were fighting bloodily, Yang Gonggong felt glad in his heart, fortunately, the place where they fought was not far from the palace, so he could arrive in time. If it's a step too late, I'm afraid that Sima Dejiao and Lai Hu'er will have to be captured alive by the other party.
"Take them down!"
With a wave of his hand, the hundreds of brocade guards who followed him immediately killed, and surrounded the black-clothed figures present with lightning speed.
