Chapter 215: The City Lord is Wise
Night.
Zhao Lanjiang and Li Chengcheng stood by a pile of rubble, with seventeen or eighteen assassin corpses lying on the ground, and four people who were controlled in the acupuncture points, unable to move, looking at the two with resentment on their faces.
In ten days, this was the fourth batch of assassinations they had encountered. These people's martial arts are uneven, high or low, and the methods of assassination are also different, but fortunately, Zhao has a long experience in the rivers and lakes and has not caused substantial damage. In order to reduce the trouble, the two separated from the convoy, and the grain was transported to Yinyang City by Lao Liu, who was driving the car.
Li Chengcheng said, "Obviously, some people don't want you to enter Hidden Yang City alive! ”
"Just ask!" Zhao Panjiang threw the five assassins on the ground, "I'm asking you questions now, and if you don't answer or answer slowly, don't blame me for inviting you to eat knives." ”
The four of them snorted coldly, the assassination failed, they were already ready to become benevolent if they didn't succeed, and looked at Zhao Lanjiang with an indifferent face, no matter what inhuman torture they suffered, they would never speak.
Zhao Lanjiang came to Assassin Jia, "What's your name?"
Assassin A snorted coldly, "We assassins have the dignity of assassins, we have our creed, if you want to kill, you will kill, the head has a scar the size of a bowl, and Lao Tzu will ...... twenty years later."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Lanjiang cut the person's throat with a knife and said slowly, "The answer is wrong." ”
Li Qingcheng squatted in front of the three of them and said with a smile, "Speaking is an art, and if you have low martial arts, you may not be able to kill you, but if you say the wrong thing, you may be killed." This friend of mine is not very good-tempered, and I advise the four of them to cooperate well, and maybe they can survive. ”
The remaining three Assassins trembled with fear.
At the time of the chaotic battle just now, Zhao Lanjiang was like a murderous maniac, killing more than a dozen people in less than a stick of incense, although they had the backbone of an assassin, but after surviving, they no longer wanted to die easily.
Zhao Lanjiang came to Assassin B again, "What is one plus one?"
Assassin B didn't want to die, and he had made up his mind that no matter what the other party asked, he would know everything and say everything, but when he heard Zhao Lanjiang ask, he was stunned, "What?"
The sword flashed, and the assassin was killed on the spot.
The answer was too slow. ”
The remaining two assassins are already faceless at the moment, the questions are so casual, the killing is so casual, where is this torture to extract confessions, this is clearly deliberately trying to kill.
The two of them prostrate on the ground, constantly kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Assassin C said: "Hero, we don't want to die, whatever you ask, we will say." My name is Li Pancake, his name is Zhang Da Shallot, I am thirty-six, he is thirty-one, I am six feet eight, he is six feet seven, my ancestral home is Hebei, and his ancestral home is Longxi. ”
Zhao Lanjiang's face sank, "Let's talk about the point." ”
"We are the assassins of Tiangang Thirty-six among the three major killer organizations, and a month ago, someone offered a reward of 30,000 taels on the dark web to take your head, and provided your location and information. Recently, business has not been good, and we Tiangang thirty-six have been thinking about coming here to touch our fortune, who knows that we didn't bump into the God of Wealth, but we bumped into the hands of the King of Hades. ”
Li Chengcheng asked, "Who is the person who offered the reward?"
"This operation is a dark flower, and the person who offered the reward is surnamed Jia, and he did not reveal his identity, but he just knew that after the killing, the old diesel shop in Baihufang, Yinyang City, went to get the bonus. ”
After asking a few more words, he found that it was useless news, and seeing that it was useless, Li Chengcheng unlocked their acupoints, and the two of them ran forward like crazy if they were amnesty, and only ran out of more than ten zhang, and two stones flew over and hit the back of the heads of the two.
The two fell to the ground, exhausted.
Li Chengcheng couldn't help frowning when he saw that Zhao Lanjiang had killed these two people, "These two people are no longer threatening, you still kill the two, Zhao Lanjiang, you are becoming more and more unscrupulous." ”
Zhao Lanjiang sneered, "They came to kill me, do I still have to give them wine and candied candies?" He put the long knife back to the sheath and said lightly, "I, Zhao Lanjiang, want to let the entire rivers and lakes know that revenge will be avenged and debts must be repaid!"
Li Chengcheng sighed secretly in his heart and couldn't help but shake his head.
Zhao Lanjiang has been getting more and more angry recently, but he thought about it again, these days, he has faced more and more assassinations or ambushes, and if he didn't have this ruthlessness, it would be a question whether he could survive.
Li Chengcheng was a little puzzled, "Although Yinyang City doesn't say that there are masters like clouds, there are still many masters in the City Lord's Mansion, have you found it, the people who have been assassinated in the past few days are not very good at martial arts, and the highest is only the first realm of Xuanxuan, have you thought about the reason?"
Zhao Lanjiang said, "Li Xiancheng doesn't want to welcome the Golden Sword King back to his hometown, which is not conducive to his prestige, so he will make things bigger and make the city known to everyone, so as to teach me to retreat in the face of difficulties." ”
"And what do you want to do?"
"I received the favor of the Golden Sword King, and I personally promised to send his ashes back to Yinyang City, even if there is a sea of swords and fires in front of me, I Zhao Lanjiang will also go to break through, and besides, Lao Xiao should have arrived, let's run, won't Chishui Wine let him swallow it alone?"
"Makes sense. ”
The two didn't know that in today's Hidden Sun City, they couldn't buy authentic Chishui wine.
......
I don't know when, a rumor circulated among the four squares of Hidden Yang City.
Half a year ago, the Golden Knife and the Crazy Knife of Taihu Lake, the two did not distinguish between victory and defeat, seriously injured, and the last person who saw the Golden Sword King was Zhao Lanjiang, Zhao Lanjiang coveted the Golden Knife Knife Technique, took the opportunity to kill the Golden Knife King, and took the Golden Knife, and claimed to be the Golden Knife inheritance, Zhao Lanjiang sent the Golden Knife back to his hometown thousands of miles, in order to usurp the position of the city lord!
The words of the people are terrible, and the mouths of the people are golden.
The sword can kill, the rumor can kill even more, and there is no blood in killing.
The rumors are intensifying, and the people of Yinyang were originally full of respect for a foreigner escorting the bones of the golden knife, but after such a rendering, Zhao Lanjiang has become a scheming and despicable person.
Breakfast shop.
"This person surnamed Zhao may be a spy sent by the Northern Zhou Dynasty, who took the opportunity to steal the secrets of the City Lord's Mansion, and these people can't be kept!"
There is no shortage of sensible people in the middle, "Spy, from Suzhou, 3,000 miles away, this gentleman, please use your brains, if you are a spy, you will still make such a big fanfare!"
"That's not necessarily, even if you are not a spy, you can't say that there can be other conspiracies, otherwise, he is not familiar with the Golden Sword King, a person who has only known him for less than a day can get the inheritance of the Golden Sword King, and promised to escort the Golden Sword King's ashes back, where is there such a person in the world!"
"That's it! He kept saying that he had obtained the Golden Sword Inheritance, maybe he had stolen the Golden Sword Technique!"
Everyone talked about it, and the person who argued for Zhao Lanjiang quickly drowned in everyone's saliva, hurriedly settled the breakfast account, and slipped away.
At this time, a middle-aged man said, "The Golden Sword King has never had any sword skills, and his sword intent is forged with the blood and souls of countless enemies, so the theory of stealing the sword spectrum is not credible." ”
A middle-aged man in his forties had a broken knife in front of his desk without a scabbard.
The person who spoke before was refuted by him, stood up and shouted, "Who are you, if you say you can't be trusted, you can't be trusted, is it that what I said is a fart? In my opinion, you are the same party surnamed Zhao!"
The middle-aged man sneered, ignored the man, ate the last bowl of noodles, put twenty yuan on the table, nodded to the shopkeeper, then got up, picked up the long knife, and slowly left.
The man still did not give up, "You see, as soon as I exposed him, he left. It's clearly a weak heart!"
The shopkeeper said, "Young man, you should pay attention to what you say in the future, that is because Li Dutong disdains to argue with you." ”
"What Li Dutong, Zhang Dutong, I haven't heard of. ”
Someone exclaimed, "Broken Knife Li Yuanhu?
The shopkeeper said leisurely, "Bai Ma Yi's military law is extremely strict, the saber is like life, and it must not be damaged, except for Li Yuanhu, who would dare to use a broken knife in the entire Hidden Yang City?"
Yinyang five thousand white horses by the general Li Xianzhong command, under the dragon, tiger, leopard and wolf four guards, shouldering the responsibility of guarding Yinyang, tiger cavalry guard commander Li Yuanhu, participated in the battle of Yinyang, this broken knife, when the Golden Sword King blocked a knife and broken, since then, Li Yuanhu will no longer replace the saber.
When the young man heard that the other party was the commander of the White Horse Yicong, he closed his mouth very interestingly.
......
Castle Lord's Mansion.
Chief of Staff Chai Gongwang stood very respectfully and said to Li Xiancheng, "Congratulations to the city lord, in the past few days, his subordinates have sent more than a dozen people to spread the news in the streets, what Zhao Lanjiang has done has caused public outrage in the city, and some people even called on the city lord to capture Zhao Lanjiang alive and avenge the old city lord!"
Li Xiancheng nodded and smiled, "Very good, Huang Gong, it's really my Li's Zhang Zifang, with your help, why worry about the great cause?"
Chai Gong said, "It's all based on the city lord's appreciation, the subordinates killed people in righteous anger back then, if it wasn't for the city lord's rescue, the subordinates would have already become the souls of the sword, and there would be no today." ”
"What's going on over there in Yuwen Tianlu?"
Chai Gongwang said, "In the past few days, except for going to the grocery store once, I have been staying at Li Bufan's house, and now he refuses to show up, so we pretend not to know, but Cao Zhifu has come to ask several times." ”
"It is only natural that a dog slave cares about his master. Repairing Jingcheng Terrace in the Ten Mile Long Pavilion, he can figure it out! The twelve dead soldiers from the Northern Zhou Dynasty should be taken care of, so don't make any trouble. ”
"Speaking of Jingchengtai, his subordinates have a plan. ”
The chief of staff leaned over to Li Xiancheng's ear and whispered for a long time, Li Xiancheng heard it and said happily, "Just do it as you say." ”
Li Xiancheng personally picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for the chief of staff, which flattered Chai Gongwang, and even knelt down to receive it with both hands, Li Xiancheng said, "You deserve this tea." ”
The chief of staff also ignored the tea, drank it in one gulp, and said, "In the past ten days, a total of seventy-one people have been sent to assassinate Zhao Lanjiang, and none of them survived. ”
Li Xiancheng said, "It seems that the wolf nature of this wolf of Hengduan Mountain has been completely hooked. It's time to add a fire to him, pass on the order of my city lord, and order the dragon, tiger, leopard and wolf four guards to send 100 people each to arrest Zhao Lanjiang, and if they resist, they will be killed!"
The chief of staff was a little worried: "This is not appropriate, Zhao Lanjiang has the ashes of the Golden Sword King after all, if it is ......"
Although Chai Gongwang said this in his mouth, he didn't think so in his heart, first provoked Zhao Lanjiang with an ordinary killer, and then captured him with white horse righteousness, which was his idea, but in front of all his staff, he chose to pretend to be stupid and forget.
"What do you know?" Li Xiancheng said, "Zhao Lanjiang has already killed the red eye, as long as he dares to kill a white horse righteous servant, he will be the enemy of my Hidden Yang City, in this life, he will never want to enter Hidden Yang City." The key point, you can figure it out for yourselves!"
Chai Gongwang pretended to think for a long time, and said loudly, "The city lord is wise!"
The rest of the staff understood the reason, and they were also a little confused, but at this moment, they all shouted, "The city lord is wise!"
