Chapter 57: Suspicion

The shouts came from the great tent where King Fu lived, and they were full of fear. Hearing such a shout, the personal guards responsible for protecting King Fu and two teams of Imperial Army soldiers who were patrolling the night hurried over, and when they saw it, they couldn't help but shout: "Oh no!"

Things are really bad...... The two guards standing guard at the door of the tent had fallen to the ground and died. In the camp, King Fu, who was still majestic, had fallen in a pool of blood at this moment, and his head was gone. What everyone could see was the fat pig-like body in the prince's robe.

Bizarrely, King Fu was not lying alone in a pool of blood. Next to him, there were four men dressed in black and covered with face scarves, still holding daggers in their hands, but they had been wounded in the heart or throat, and they had been dead for an unknown amount of time.

Could it be that King Fu was a hidden master, who struggled to kill these four masked men, and was finally outnumbered before being cut off his head?

In the midst of the panic of the crowd, one of the captains of King Fu's personal guard immediately shouted: "Quick! Immediately call everyone up! You should report to your chief sect leader and quickly order a strict search!"

At his shouting, the crowd dispersed, calling for people to report the report. The crowd was frightened, their steps were hurried, their shouts were hurried, and the camp suddenly became in turmoil.

More and more people were awakened and hurried to the big camp. The captain was giving orders to a group of guards when he suddenly screamed and fell to the ground.

As soon as his body fell to the ground, the person standing in front of him saw that behind him, a man dressed in black and covered with a masked appeared, holding a dagger in his hand, on which blood was dripping.

Everyone was stunned for a while, and suddenly they all shouted at the same time. The prince is dead, and all the guards are already derelict in their duties, and if they don't behave actively and bravely, then not only will it be difficult to protect their jobs, but they will also be martyred!

Facing the siege of a large group of pro-guards, the man in black didn't say a word, but pushed forward with his left palm. Suddenly, a fierce palm wind blew in the face, and all the pro-guards couldn't stand it and fell to the ground one after another.

The man in black didn't take the opportunity to kill them all, he was on tiptoe, and his figure flew away, flying away.

In order not to be buried, everyone got up and chased after them with shouts. Seeing this, the Imperial soldiers who were approaching also joined in the pursuit, shouting "catch him" and "don't let the assassin escape" were heard incessantly. The whole camp is in chaos!

Hu Kuan was sleeping in his tent, and when he heard the chaos outside, he got up and came out to check on his clothes. As soon as he stepped out of the camp, a soldier hurried to report loudly: "Something is wrong! King Fu has been killed by the assassins!"

When Hu Kuan heard this, a strange look appeared on his face: "Is there such a thing?"

The soldier breathlessly said, "It's true! The corpse is still there, and there are four masked men dressed in black lying next to it!"

The look on Hu Kuan's face was even more strange. He was about to ask further, when the corner of his eye suddenly flickered, and a man in black rushed out from the side, bowed to him, and said, "Chief Sect Leader, the big thing has been done! King Fu's head is here!"

The man's voice was not normal, and when he heard it, he knew that he was pinching his throat. As he spoke, he shook his hand and threw something at Hu Kuan. Hu Kuan subconsciously caught it, looked down at it, and couldn't help but be shocked.

It was a head, and although that face had lost its bloody color, it was indeed a blessed king!

The soldier who came to report was also shocked and hurriedly retreated: "I didn't see anything!"

Running to report to his boss that King Fu had been assassinated, he bumped into the assassin and was reporting to his boss...... Is there anything more unfortunate than that?

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps, and a large group of soldiers with torches in their hands rushed from the front, including their own imperial troops and King Fu's personal guards. They shouted, "Don't go Assassin!"

"Over there, over there!"

Hu Kuan's face changed color, turned the head in his hand behind his back, and threw his hand into the camp tent behind him. After all, he is the chief official here, as long as he doesn't open his mouth, no one dares to come in and search.

It was only then that he remembered the man in black. Looking left and right, where is the figure of the man in black?

As he spoke, the pursuing soldiers arrived. Most of them scattered to both sides to continue the pursuit, and a group of Fu Wang's personal guards stopped in front of Hu Kuan and asked loudly, "Sect Chief Hu, we saw the assassins running this way, did you see them?"

At this moment, Hu Kuan could only say: "Yes, I saw it, he ran over there!"

King Fu's personal guards looked at Hu Kuan, their faces full of suspicion: "But we saw with our own eyes that that assassin was still talking to you just now!"

Although the rank is too lower than Hu Kuan, they are not Hu Kuan's subordinates, but directly obey the orders of King Fu, and the situation at this time is extremely special, I can't say it, in order to protect myself from being buried, don't say anything about Hu Kuan, even "Hu Zhai" has to be suspicious.

Hu Kuan was secretly angry in his heart, but at this moment, King Fu's head had just been thrown into the camp tent behind him, and he couldn't shout out such bold words as "I don't believe you searched my camp tent", so he could only stubbornly say: "There is no such thing! You must have read it wrong!"

One of the guards at the head saluted and said, "Sect Leader Hu, I'm very sorry, we must make it clear where the duty lies." Please allow us to go into your tent and search it!"

Hu Kuan said angrily: "What, you don't believe me?"

The man said: "Don't dare, it's not that we don't believe it, it's just that we will definitely be asked in the future whether we have figured it out." So, I'm sorry, we have to figure it out now!"

Where did Hu Kuan dare to let them go in and search, and said loudly: "How can this be reasonable? Could it be that I have a grudge against King Fu and want to send assassins to kill him? What good is it for me to kill him?"

In order to enhance the momentum of his speech, Hu Kuan shouted loudly and waved his arms angrily. There were torches at the door of the tent, and the group of guards also had torches in their hands, and under the light of so many torches, everyone could see it clearly, Hu Kuan's hands were stained with a lot of blood!

As soon as the man gave the order, all the guards immediately retreated, and everyone unsheathed their swords and stared at Hu Kuan, as if they were facing a great enemy. The man instructed one of the soldiers: "Immediately release the meteor cannon!

The soldier immediately took a cannon from his bosom, lit it on a torch, and raised it to the sky. Suddenly, a string of fireworks rose into the sky, forming a "Fu" character in the air, which lasted for a long time.

This is their signal to call for rapid reinforcements from their companions!
