Chapter 41: Assassination Things are serious
Lunch was eaten in Taishou's Mansion, but this meal was not nutritious, and Su Zhanming and Bai Taishou basically touted each other. One boasted that the other party loved the people like a son, and the other touted that the other party taught her daughter to do business very well. Su Xiuyun was bored when she heard it, so she almost dozed off.
This is someone else's house, and it is not good for her to leave the table in advance and hang out in other people's houses, so she can only wait for the two of them to finish touting and then leave with Su Zhanming.
Leaving the Taishou Mansion, Su Xiuyun was preoccupied, Su Zhanming saw it and asked her: "What's the matter, I'm sad." ”
Hearing this, Su Xiuyun raised her head and looked at the sun at this moment, "Dad, when did you say that this White City will be restored." ”
Su Zhanming didn't expect her to ask this, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only touch her head and say, "Our father and daughter work together, it shouldn't be long." ”
"Well, what Daddy said is that Yun'er is nothing, but she misses her grandmother a little."
To be honest, Su Zhanming was a little relieved that he couldn't leave his old mother at home after coming out for so long, so he sighed and took Su Xiuyun back to the inn. It was hard to talk outside just now, but now when I go back to the house, I can exchange the information that both sides get to my heart's content.
Su Xiuyun told Su Zhanming the information she heard from her uncle, and the other party also told what the old man said. The two sides went over and found that the information was very different, that is, the comments about Taishou were a little different.
However, these are not important for the time being, and Su Xiuyun told Su Zhanming about the fact that he heard at night that outsiders were plotting and that the concubine was one of the conspirators. After listening to this, Su Zhanming first blamed her for going out late at night, what to do if she encountered any danger.
Later, I was glad that I ran away, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. Su Xiuyun didn't think about this, but focused on what they would do to swallow Bai Cheng. Su Zhanming couldn't say that he completely believed this, so he just told Su Xiuyun not to act rashly and go out to investigate by himself.
At this time, both of them have been busy for a day, Su Xiuyun was a little tired and went back to the room to rest, while Su Zhanming continued to inquire about the news. After waking up from sleep, Su Zhanming came back, and today they did not go to the hall to eat, but talked in Su Zhanming's room.
"Yun'er, Daddy has inquired about you, and you said that there is indeed something wrong. Those people are indeed plotting some big plans, but we don't know the details of the details. ”
"In the next few days, we need you and me to work together, Yun'er is afraid?" Su Zhanming said this to ask Su Xiuyun if he was willing, after all, there was still a certain risk in this matter, and he might regret it if he was in danger, but for the sake of the people of Baicheng, they had to do it.
Su Xiuyun knew the reason why her father asked this, so she just smiled faintly, "Daddy, didn't you forget, Yun'er was the first to know about this matter." ”
As soon as these words came out, the two of them already knew in their hearts, and the following words did not need to be tacitly spoken. "Did Daddy find out what the Liu family did?"
"Yes, but soon the trail was broken, and it seemed that someone was following us all the time to stop us." Speaking of this, Su Zhanming also had a headache, but Su Xiuyun was very optimistic. "Don't worry, Dad, there will always be a day to find out."
"It's just that we have to do it as soon as possible, Yun'er really wants to go back to accompany the ancestor-"
'Wow! ’
'Boom! ’
Before he finished speaking, a sharp arrow broke through the air, Su Zhanming reacted very quickly to protect Su Xiuyun behind him, and Leng Li also came over the window from another room for the first time. At this time, the three people in the room, Su Zhanming and Leng Li both had a high combat value, as long as Su Xiuyun didn't have the kung fu to hide behind the two.
Unexpectedly, a sharp arrow was just the beginning, followed by many arrows shot in succession, and then there was a fierce fighting sound outside the courtyard. Listening to the voice, it should be the people of their team fighting, there should be a lot of people coming, Su Zhan secretly estimated the number of enemies.
Fortunately, the force value of the people they brought was not covered, and the enemy did not get any benefits for a while. Su Zhanming instructed Leng Li to take care of Su Xiuyun in the room, while he went out to meet the enemy. Su Xiuyun knew that she didn't know anything, so she didn't speak, so she obediently hid behind Leng Li.
Leng Li firmly protected Su Xiuyun behind him, and raised his hand to fight the enemy who broke in from behind. The purpose of these assassins was obvious, they wanted the lives of this group, so they left no room for viciousness. Although Leng Li is powerful, it is indeed a bit difficult to deal with so many people at once and protect Su Xiuyun.
Seeing that someone was coming towards Su Xiuyun's back door, Su Xiuyun couldn't sit still anymore, so he took out a silver needle and attacked the enemy as well. Leng Li saw that she had the ability to protect herself, so he specially assisted her, and the two cooperated quite well in the room, but they didn't suffer a loss.
Gradually, the sound of fighting outside gradually died down, and the enemies inside the house were also coldly dealt with and fell to the ground. However, Leng Li did not kill them completely, but left a living mouth waiting for Su Zhanming to come back for interrogation. The enemies outside have all been dealt with, otherwise there is no way to get out.
After solving the outside, Su Zhanming quickly returned to the room to check whether Su Xiuyun was injured, and was relieved to see that the latter was unscathed. Then the eyes of the group turned to the only living one, and the Assassin was coldly stripped of his limbs, and he lay on the ground unable to move.
Su Zhanming took a few steps forward and squatted down and asked him, "Who sent you?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw that the assassin was spitting black blood and lost his breath. It seems that he committed suicide by taking poison with poison hidden in his mouth, Su Zhanming was a little remorseful, but now that everyone is dead, he won't say anything. And just by looking at death as if they were at home, you can see the determination of the person behind it this time.
Even though the person is dead, the body search can still be carried out. In the end, Su Zhanming and the others found all the tattoos of the barbarians on the assassins, and they roughly determined that the person behind them was the barbarians, but it was not clear who they were. Tonight's matter may not be over yet, Su Zhanming ordered everyone not to sleep tonight and be careful.
Everyone passed the night cautiously, but nothing happened in the second half of the night. After there was no movement until dawn, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Zhanming just asked everyone to rest and recuperate, when he saw his subordinates who were out to inquire about the news every day hurriedly returned.
"Oh no, sir, no, miss!"
The person who inquired had followed Su Zhanming for many years, and he was calm and reliable, and it was rare for him to look so anxious, but it could also be seen that this time the matter was not small.
"What's the matter?"
"Oh no, sir, a large number of people suddenly fell ill in the city early this morning, and not long after my subordinates went to investigate, those sick people died one after another."
"Earlier, there was a curse in the city, and now the more people die, the more people believe in the curse. So...... So ......"
"So what!"
"That's why everyone is clamoring to kick us out!"
