Chapter 36: Ridiculous (2nd Update)
Zheng Qu's eyesight is extraordinary, and he estimates accurately.
100 meters.
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters.
10 meters ......
At this moment, a sharp neighing of horses came, and the big brown and red horses with their manes could not stop howling towards the sky.
Zheng Quqi, who had already entered the hunting moment, had also reached the peak of his murderous intent.
It's amazing, she has never killed anyone, but now she is not afraid or hesitant at all, but her mind is clear and her mind is not distracted.
It's like...... She has long been accustomed to it, once she enters the state, in her eyes, in the bottom of her heart, all her attention is only the target of being sniped.
Now is the time!
Her target is very clear, that is, the person who occupies the dominant position in this cavalry team, and the soldiers will subconsciously protect with their lives.
The cavalry who had been ambushed at the bottom of the slope roared in confusion for a while, and the voices were full of voices and figures.
But Zheng Quqi on the slope, her eyes are as calm as her heart, like a precision instrument.
She had only seen Yu Wensheng once, and the scene at that time was still vivid.
He wore a mask of an evil god and a black bone armor, and in her mind, he was as morbidly ferocious and bloody as the living Yama described by others.
This group of all well-trained sergeants, when they were shocked to find that they were ambushed, they guessed that there must be an enemy assassination around them, so they didn't care about themselves, and they used human flesh as a shield to build a human wall for Yu Wensheng.
It's useless.
Zheng Quqi sneered in his heart.
Although she couldn't completely see Yu Wensheng's figure clearly, whenever he showed a flaw and a little bit of vital point in the process of moving, she felt that she could take his life.
What if he doesn't move, you say?
Motionless?
No way.
Familiar with angles and reflex movements, she had already calculated in her mind that she would need to shoot two arrows in quick succession in a very short time to successfully kill him.
The first arrow, which frightened him to turn back, exposed the vital point, and the second, the first arrow, pierced him into the throat, and he would die.
She calmly waited for the best moment, and as an assassin, she could not be in a hurry.
Just when the other party was nervously searching around, when the horses were swaying uncontrollably, the flaws finally appeared.
Now is the time.
She pulled the trigger, and a sky-breaking arrow passed through the gaps between the staggered figures, and with a ding, it directly missed the mask on Yu Wensheng's face.
Everything that followed was as she expected.
According to the track gauge of the arrow, Yu Wensheng guessed the direction of the enemy's ambush, and turned his head at the first time.
At this time, the mask that was shot off couldn't help the force of the impact, and gradually shattered from the position of his ear, and the mask on his face fell off suddenly.
After an arrow, Zheng Quqi's movements did not stop for a moment, as if he had been beaten and refined, the afterimage in his hand passed, and he put the arrow on the arrow, pulled the bowstring back, hung it on the hook, and after aiming at the target, he pulled the trigger-
Just when she didn't hesitate to deduct the trigger, she saw the mask on the other party's face shatter and fall.
When the face behind the mask was reflected in Zheng Quqi's pupils, her sniping action stopped like this.
The wind and sand blew through his blindfolded scarf and swayed, and his hunting robe was like a light smoke that was intricate and layered, and his skin was almost transparent under the green halo, and his lips were bright.
Pupil earthquakes.
!
What about Yu Wensheng, who said yes, why did the Lord suddenly become her blind husband who had an eye disease attack and was waiting for her to grab medicine and go back to relieve the pain?!
The killing arrow was aimed at Yu Wensheng's vital point, and the trajectory of the first death arrow shot from the bushes on the slope also made Yu Wensheng clearly know that there was a person hiding there.
An assassin with excellent archery skills, but the army can take people's lives as easily as they probe for things.
Qiu saw that Zheng Quqi was full of murderous intent and confident, and she was sure that Yu Wensheng would die this time, but she never expected that she would stop at the most critical moment.
"Shoot—"
He looked fierce and urged her urgently.
"At this moment, what are you in a daze!"
But Zheng Quqi was so distraught at this time that his fingers that were frozen on the trigger couldn't be pulled at all.
"I'll explain to you later, the timing is missed, the location has been exposed, let's go!"
She understood that because of her hesitation, the sniper mission had been declared a failure, but Qiu was unwilling, his face was gloomy, and he reached out to snatch the crossbow from her hand, intending to shoot "Liu Fengmian" in person.
Zheng Quqi saw that he was obsessed with this assassination, and even lost her usual calm, she quickly turned around, didn't even have to aim, directly pulled the trigger, let go of the taut bowstring, and shot a crossbow arrow.
"Do!" With a bang, an arrow slashed through Qiu's ear, leaving a bloody streak, and plunged straight into the trunk of the tree.
Qiu was stunned, looking at her with a pale face like a ghost.
Although Zheng Quqi also regretted the impulsive arrow just now, she couldn't let him kill "Liu Fengmian".
"You can't kill him."
"Why can't you kill him?"
It was the first time that Qiu was so angry with her, and he didn't even care about the huge crisis that Yu Wensheng got rid of the obstruction of the thistle terrestris and directly killed her.
Zheng Quqi knew that there was no explanation, and Qiu would not give up, so she told him directly: "We were fooled, the person below is not Yu Wensheng, his name is Liu Fengmian, I suspect that Yu Wensheng has been in the dark." ”
Autumn stared at her with a ridiculous expression.
But he had only seen Yu Wensheng from afar in the camp, and he was wearing such a terrifying mask at that time, and this man ...... Although he also wore a mask, he did not wear the general's battle armor cape.
Qiu still believes in Zheng Quqi.
"There's no time, let's go."
This time, Qiu glanced down, and there was still unwillingness to follow the fox in his eyes, but he no longer hesitated, picked up Zheng Quqi, and cut off the pre-designed mechanism, only to see the log bones on the hillside crashing and falling.
He then quickly followed the escape route he had planned early on.
Since Yu Wensheng had determined the other party's location, no one could escape his pursuit.
With a single sword, he broke through the logs that had tumbled down the slope, scattering the splinters of the wood, and leaping into the bushes, where he saw that the Assassin was long gone, crushed and flattened.
He couldn't figure it out, if he guessed correctly, the other party's archery skills are clever, one arrow is the main lure, one arrow is the main kill, since the killing arrow has been set up, why did he choose to stop at the last moment?
——
While running for his life, Qiu was still chattering on the road: "You said that he is not Yu Wensheng, but why is he in the main army position?" ”
When asked Zheng Quqi about this, she couldn't figure it out.
Obviously, the two people who have just been engaged to the marriage alliance, one of them suffered from an eye disease, and the other went to buy medicine to relieve the pain, which should have been the development of a husband and wife's deep love, why did they turn their heads, one became an assassin, and the other became the target of her assassination?
She wanted to ask, is there anything more ridiculous in this world?
