On the official road, a carriage bathed in the moonlight, escorted by three knights, set off a crisp sound of clattering horses' hooves.

"Phew!"

Suddenly, the silver-armored knight at the head pulled the reins in his hand, and the horse under his seat neighed and stopped.

"Major General, what's wrong?"

The other two knights approached the Silverarmour Knight's side and asked in a low voice.

The silver-armored knight squinted and stretched out his hand to the side of the official road.

"Two uncles, how can there be a fire over there?"

The two of them looked at the fingers of the silver-armored knight, and saw that between the mountains shrouded in night in the distance, there were dozens of fires that could not stop swaying, even from a distance.

"Major General, it's important for me to hurry, don't miss the business."

One of the knights frowned and whispered on his horse.

When the silver-armored knight heard this, he was about to speak, when suddenly his ears moved, and his face changed slightly.

As a martial artist, the five senses of the Silver Armor Knight have been greatly strengthened.

Just now, with the help of the night breeze, he faintly heard the words "Little Hou Ye" from the direction of the firelight!

The marquis of Taihe Mansion, except for Zhao Qin, the Marquis of Anguo, there is no second one.

Then this little marquis must also be a character in the Marquis of Anguo's mansion!

Thinking of this, the silver-armored knight had no doubts, and immediately said:

"Two uncles, you are here to protect your aunt. Xiu was quite uneasy in his heart, so he went over there to explore it in person, and if he was fine, he would come back soon. ”

"Major General......

The two knights looked at each other and opened their mouths to speak.

At this moment, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old maid jumped from the carriage and said to the Silver Armor General:

"Young General, Madame asked the servant to ask, but something happened ahead, why did it stagnate?"

The silver-armored knight bowed his hand to the two knights, rode his horse to the carriage, turned over and dismounted, and saluted in one go.

"Youwei has seen Auntie."

"Yovi, but what's going on?"

From the carriage, a soft female voice came out, and then, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by a Qianqian hand, revealing a beautiful face that was no more than twenty-five or sixteen years old.

This person is none other than Zhang Xiu's aunt, the surviving Zou family.

It turned out that Zhang Xiuzhi's uncle Zhang Ji had served under Zhao Qin, the Marquis of Anguo. Zhang Ji had no children under his knees, and treated his nephew Zhang Xiu as a parent, not only taught Zhang Xiu the art of war and the art of battle, but also spent a lot of effort to find a famous teacher to teach him martial arts.

Zhang Ji, who was grateful for the kindness of Anguohou, called Zhang Xiu, who had returned from his studies, to the bed and told him to go to serve under Anguohou after the wake was over.

After three years of filial piety, Zhang Xiu took two of Zhang Ji's old subordinates to prepare to go to the Marquis of Anguo Mansion to serve.

Before leaving, Zhang Xiu thought that after he left, his aunt Zou was alone and had many inconveniences in life, so he persuaded Zou to go to Taihe Mansion with him.

"Auntie, that's ......"

Zhang Xiu respectfully said his thoughts to the Zou family.

After hearing this, Zou nodded and said:

"You're doing the right thing. If you are a person in the Hou Mansion of Anguo, with this matter, you can also enter the eyes of the Hou Ye, which is more conducive to gaining a firm foothold in the Hou Mansion; If not, you should do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and if you have merit, you will be able to turn danger into disaster in the future. Go ahead, Auntie has your two uncles guarding here, and there will be no problem. ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, saluted the Zou family again, stepped on the blue-maned horse, and galloped towards the firelight.

Uncle Zhang Ji regarded himself as his son, and Zhang Xiu also regarded Zhang Ji as his father and Zou as his mother.

If Zou does not agree to go by himself, then he is unwilling in his heart, and it is not easy to disobey.

Watching Zhang Xiu disappear into the night, Zou in the carriage twisted up a strand of long hair and played with it, and the gaze in a pair of beautiful eyes was erratic.

"Anguo Marquis Mansion...... If I can have a place in this Hou Mansion, then the master who was chased by those bald donkeys and ox noses in the north may be able to take root in this southern Chu land......"

The sound of horses' hooves from far to near made Ma Laosan frown.

Did you pass by unintentionally, or did you come specifically to them?

"Boss?"

An Assassin asked in a low voice.

Ma Laosan waved his hand.

"You bring four or five brothers over to have a look, don't let the other party disturb our good things!"

"Whoa!"

The Assassin bowed his hand and beckoned five or six of his brothers to turn around and run towards the sound of the horses' hooves.

"This little marquis is quite able to hide, tell the other brothers, hurry up!"

He let out a heavy breath and commanded his men.

For some reason, Ma Laosan's heart swelled with an indescribable irritability.

In this compartment, Zhang Xiu rode on the mount, looked at the few people in front of him, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean by blocking a certain way?" ”

"Boy, don't ask if you shouldn't ask, if you know each other, just turn around and get out, otherwise, grandpa will recognize you, and grandpa won't recognize you with the knife in his hand!"

One of the assassins said with a sly voice.

When Zhang Xiu heard this, his eyes flashed.

He wasn't a stupid person, and the group of people were all covered in black scarves, and they knew at a glance that they weren't good people.

Combined with the three words "Little Hou Ye" that he had just heard, Zhang Xiu faintly guessed, and his mind was racing, but he made a decision in an instant.

I saw that his legs lightly clamped the horse's belly, and the green-maned horse under his crotch that was in line with his heart rushed out.

With a cold flash, the assassin led by him made a few "ho-ho" sounds, clutched his neck and fell to the ground to die.

"This kid killed Lao Xu?!"

"How daring!"

"Kill this kid and avenge Lao Xu!"

No one expected that the other party would dare to take the lead, and in a fit of anger, several assassins drew their weapons and slashed at Zhang Xiu with shouting.

"Dirt Chicken Tile Dog!"

Zhang Xiu snorted lightly, inserted the long sword into the sheath with his backhand, and took a steel spear from the victory hook, and twisted his hands, and the steel spear turned into a bowl-sized pear blossom, and used it as a hood for those assassins.

Burst! Burst! Burst!

The assassins felt only a pain in their foreheads, and in the next moment, their consciousness fell into boundless darkness.

Zhang Xiu didn't look at it, and rushed to the front of the horse, shouting at the same time.

"Don't panic, little marquis, reinforcements will arrive immediately!"

Zhao Yu, who was lying in the bushes, finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this.

It's just that he doesn't know if what the other party said is true or not, maybe it's to trick him into coming out of hiding?

Therefore, Zhao Yu did not make any moves, and still lay quietly in the bushes.

It's a matter of your own life, or prudence first.

"Damn, what are they doing, Lao Xu, they actually let the other party rush over!"

Looking at the people and horses who were constantly approaching here, Ma Laosan spat on the ground hatefully.

"Lao Li, you take your team and continue to search, and the others, together with me, will kill that guy who doesn't know the height of the sky!"

With Ma Laosan's order, most of the assassins swarmed towards Zhang Xiu under his leadership.

"Good time!"

A bloodthirsty smile appeared on Zhang Xiu's handsome face, and he shook the reins and said in a low voice:

"Kill!"

The blue-maned horse under his crotch also seemed to feel the killing intent of his master, and his speed suddenly increased in the churning of his four hooves, and he rushed forward dozens of feet in the blink of an eye.

"Die for the master!"

Zhang Xiu's tongue shook the spring thunder, his hands shook, and the steel spear seemed to be divided into three, stabbing out with cold light, and the three assassins who rushed to the front only felt a flower in front of them, a sore throat, and fell to the ground almost at the same time.

"Xiao'er is so daring, he dares to kill his grandfather's men!"

Seeing that the three men died in front of him, Ma Laosan was shocked and angry, jumped up, and stabbed Zhang Xiumian with the long sword in his hand.

"Light work? People in the rivers and lakes? ”

Zhang Xiu's face showed disdain, snorted coldly, and twisted the right hand held at the tail of the gun, and the head of the gun trembled slightly, and countless cold rays sprinkled towards Ma Laosan who was rushing towards him with a cold killing machine.

Ma Laosan only blocked three or two shots, only to feel that his whole body was like thunder, his ugly face was flushed, and his right hand holding the sword was even more trembling, and he retreated more than ten steps in a row before he unloaded the strength of the sword, and his heart could be described as shocked and angry.

Where did this come from?!

Yu Guang glanced at the hiding place of the little marquis, Ma Laosan hated it in his heart, but he knew that with this person, he couldn't do it if he wanted to.

"Boy, you have the courage to get involved in the affairs of the palace, hmph, let's ride a donkey and read the record book, and we'll see!"

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Ma Laosan immediately made a decision and flew back.

"Withdraw!"

"Did you let you go?"

Seeing that the other party wanted to escape, Zhang Xiu snorted coldly, hung the bright silver spear back to the victory hook with his right hand, and took off the horn bow behind his back with his left hand and held it in the palm of his hand.

With a "crunch" sound, the bow opens like a full moon.

Buzz –

The bowstring sounded, and the arrows slid through the air, heading straight for Ma Laosan's heart.

When he looked at the face, Ma Laosan saw that the other party was carrying a long bow, so he was wary of the other party's arrow, and now he heard the sound of the bowstring, and hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, and saw an arrow pass above his shoulder, and his heart was suddenly relieved.

But the next moment, he only felt a pain in his heart, and when he looked down, he saw a bloody arrow come into view.

There is only one string sound, how can it be......

With such doubts, Ma Laosan's consciousness fell into boundless darkness.

"The leader is dead?!"

Seeing their leader pierced by an arrow from the other side, the rest of the Assassins were shocked.

Ma Laosan, as the leader of the assassins, was two cuts above them in terms of cultivation alone, so he was easily solved by the other party?

At the thought of this, these assassins were terrified, and they were scattered in an instant.

Zhang Xiu bent his bow and arrows, and shot several more Assassins before stopping.

Even if there was moonlight, the vision of the night was still too poor compared to the day, otherwise, at least a small half of this group of assassins would have to be explained to him Zhang Xiu.

After killing the assassins, Zhang Xiufang said loudly:

"Little Hou Ye, the assassin has been killed and dispersed by Zhang Xiu, and the little Hou Ye is invited to appear, and Zhang Xiu escorts the little Hou Ye back to the Hou Mansion."

Zhao Yu, who was lying in the bushes, heard the other party's words, and his heart suddenly relaxed.

"Thank you General Zhang for saving your life, Yu is unforgettable!"

Zhao Yu said as he came out of the bushes and saluted Zhang Xiu.

"Little Hou Ye has tormented Zhang!"

Seeing that the little marquis of Anguo Mansion saluted him, he bluffed Zhang Xiu into rolling the saddle and dismounting, and only received a half-salute on his side.

He is going to serve in this Anguo Mansion in the future, and when he starts a relationship, the other party is the lord, he is a minister, even if he has the grace of saving his life, he does not dare to accept the full courtesy of the other party.

"How did the little marquis encounter an assassination?"

Zhang Xiu asked while inviting Zhao Yu to get on the horse.

"Well, it's a long story......"

Speaking of today's encounter with nine deaths, Zhao Yu couldn't help but reddened his eyes.

I, really, it was so hard!
