Chapter 8: A Thousand Men Hunt
At this time, most of Anxi Military Town, except for Nancheng District, has fallen into darkness and silence.
There is a temporary military camp in each urban area, and the Qin soldiers who have no task will eat and rest in it, even if they are not reminded by Meng Su, they will not run around.
As a result, the messengers who had reached the halfway point were instantly left alone and helpless, and there would be no comrades to help them for miles.
The irritating and toxic black smoke makes it difficult for them to make a sound to call for help.
Song Yun held his breath, drew his bronze sword, and jumped down from the roof.
At the same time, the blade of the sword fell, and the dark cyan sword light flashed, directly cutting off the head of a Qin soldier.
"Ghost Shadow Illusion" was used, Song Yun's figure ghostly moved a few feet to the left, and the bronze sword that had been cut off rose obliquely, slashing the throat of the second Qin soldier.
Turning around, he suddenly moved a few feet, and the last sword stabbed into the back of Shi Chang's heart.
In one breath, he killed three people in a row.
Because he came prepared, his movements were like flowing water, without the slightest delay.
[Zhencheng Wufu Song Yun kills 1 second-order enemy, 2 first-order enemies, and martial arts cultivation is +7]
[Current Realm: Third Order Samurai, Early Stage]
[Repair required to advance to mid-3rd Order: 7/100]
As usual, they stepped on their torches and dragged the corpses into the empty house next to them, so that they didn't even have to deal with the blood stains when it was dark.
Then, according to the display of the [Live Map], continue to chase the messenger in other directions.
Song Yun drove the map and dared to run wild in the dark night, these messengers did not dare, and it was easy to catch up.
From the western district, to the city, and then to the eastern district, four entire groups of messengers, including those who went to the southern battlefield, were intercepted by him.
"Smoky Stone" played an important role in the interception.
Each black smoky stone is packed in a bag, and when thrown out, it comes into contact with a large amount of air, and it will disperse into smoke after a breath.
It affects vision, irritates the mouth and nose, and can be poisoned if inhaled in large quantities.
These soldiers were suddenly in the thick of smoke, and they couldn't rush out in a short time, and they couldn't see the situation outside the black smoke clearly, so they could only be slaughtered.
The sword light was cold, the blood was viscous, and black smoke was billowing ......
[Zhencheng Wufu Song Yun killed 3 second-order enemies, 6 first-order enemies, martial arts cultivation value +21]
[Current Realm: Third Order Samurai, Early Stage]
[Repair required to advance to mid-3rd tier: 28/100]
After Song Yun disposed of these messengers, he looked at the murderous street battle battlefield in the south, and then returned to the northern city district.
His battlefield, there.
……
At this time, the temporary military camp in Beicheng District was empty, and most of the nearly 3,000 Qin troops who stayed behind were dispatched to conduct a carpet search in the streets and alleys!
Meng Su climbed the tallest three-story building nearby, stood directly on the roof, and watched the fires in the streets and alleys light up, waking up the sleeping Beicheng District again.
The battalions of the other two infantry battalions also jumped to the top of the building, and while enjoying the night view of "10,000 lights", they mocked:
"Mengsu, a little assassin, really deserves such a stir?"
"Haha, I think your soldiers are too weak and will be killed at every turn, why hasn't this happened to our side?"
Meng Su glanced at the two of them coldly, "I started practicing martial arts at the age of five, and I went through the classics at home, I am afraid that you two were still playing with mud when they were five years old, so who are you to question my eyesight?" ”
"That assassin's martial arts realm may not be very high, but his methods are cunning, not like the veterans of the Beiting Army, maybe he has another origin, this is the military merit sent to the door, do you understand?"
The two battalions were annoyed and ashamed when they heard this, "Mengsu, no matter how capable you are, why don't you stay in the rear like us?" ”
"That's right, what's there to drag, without the Meng family, you're not a fart!"
Meng Su snorted coldly disdainfully, didn't bother to argue with the two of them anymore, and looked up into the distance.
The rest of the city was still dark, and only the temporary barracks were lit up.
If the battalion left behind is receiving a summons from the courier, it will either stay closed or participate in the search.
Either way, the Assassin would have little chance to take advantage of it.
"Thousands of people are arresting you together, where can you run?"
……
Song Yun performed the breathing technique of "Dead Wood Hidden Spring", took off the clothes and armor of the Qin soldiers, and lay quietly on the roof.
Dead wood, all restrained in life, rotten in appearance, no different from death, but when the time comes, the spring breeze blows, and it can immediately regain its vitality.
In this state, Song Yun's breathing was almost inaudible, and his "aura" disappeared invisibly, not attracting the attention of any martial artist.
A more experienced martial artist can even detect the prying eyes of others, but in the state of dead wood and hidden spring, Song Yun's gaze will not reveal himself.
The darkness was shrouded in sporadic firelight, and the rough night wind roared incessantly.
Below Song Yun, a column of Qin soldiers passed by with torches.
There are no samurai or martial master-level masters nearby, and the strongest below is the second-order chief.
Here's your chance.
A black smoky stone rolled down from the eaves and dispersed into smoke in midair.
"What...... cough cough ...... "The few Qin soldiers at the head were immediately hit and dizzy.
Song Yun turned over and fell from the roof, slashed the chief at the front with a sword, and then casually cut down a few soldiers, and then rushed into the empty house next to him and fled.
Although the spread of the smoke was fast, the Qin soldiers were in a long column, and a few soldiers at the end of the line were able to jump out in time.
These people watched Song Yun kill in front of them, and blew their whistles in a panic.
Toot Toot Toot –
The sharp, continuous, and rapid whistle sounded for the first time in Beicheng District.
On the roof of the three-story building in the distance, Meng Su turned his head when he heard the sound, his eyes were shining, "It's here!" ”
The other two battalions immediately said in a strange manner: "Let's see what kind of assassin can be who can make Young Master Meng disgraced!" ”
With that, the two jumped directly from the roof of the building and ran away.
Meng Su did not rush to the place where the whistle sounded, he was still condescending, looking in all directions, and quickly issued an order to let the Shishi Qin soldiers go to outflank and encircle.
The black smoke gradually cleared, and the two battalions were covering their noses and walking into the street where the battle was taking place, looking at the panicked Qin soldiers.
These Qin soldiers were originally brave and daring to fight, but if they fought hard, they were not even afraid of death.
But in the face of this kind of elusive assassination, if one is not careful, a sword will stab him above his head and behind his back, and no one can parry it, and it is already a big mess.
"Report the battle damage." A battalion was frowning.
"One sergeant, one sergeant, and two were seriously wounded."
The two battalions looked at each other, but there was a look of relief in their eyes.
With the help of a sudden sneak attack in the night, and the help of choking black smoke, only two people were killed under such favorable conditions.
This shows that the assassin's martial arts cultivation is not high, and at most it is only at the level of a third-order samurai.
"Mengsu this guy made a big fuss, he was scared half to death by a samurai, hehe, go back and see how I laughed at him."
The other battalion shrugged with a smile, not pursuing the assassin.
Because all the surrounding area is full of Qin soldiers, at this moment, under the command of Meng Su, they have been surrounded layer by layer!
Not to mention the third-order warriors, even the fourth-order martial artists, this time the position has been exposed, and it is difficult to fly!
