Chapter 90: Assassination

The assassination was sudden, and no one expected it beforehand, so the guards on guard outside did not notice the assassin's ambush. By the time the Assassin released his arrows, everyone was resting and adjusting, and there was no time to react.

However, after the incident of Mrs. Qian, although the murderer has not been caught and no clues have been found, since then, the vigilance of the Qian family has been raised to the highest. This time Qian Ruihan left, Wen Anming was not very relieved, although Steward Yan had already brought many guards, but later Wen Anming almost sent more than half of the Qian family's guards, which is also one of the reasons why the convoy is so big this time.

The Assassins did not dare to get too close so as not to be discovered. Therefore, except for the outermost Qian family's defenseless people, almost everyone was seriously injured, and when the second round of arrow rain came, the Qian family's guards were already on guard. The reason why there were so many cries of injury at the beginning of the assassination was because the guards were still a minority after all, and most of the people of the Qian family did not know martial arts, although they were on guard, it was difficult to dodge, which is why they were injured so much.

When the Assassins appeared, the unsupported guards immediately organized a rebellion. However, due to the darkness and the fact that there was no one to coordinate the organization, the guards were all fighting on their own, so after they first came into contact, the guards were forced to retreat and keep coming towards Li Shishui and them, so Li Shishui heard the sound of the fight getting closer and closer.

After Li Shishui bandaged Steward Yan, he could already see that the guards of the Qian family were constantly retreating from the darkness, and there were more and more guards around Mrs. Qian's carriage. However, most of the guards who returned were wounded, and the Assassin could already be seen in the distance.

Li Shishui looked at the guards around him and couldn't help frowning. Although there are many guards of the Qian family, because the Qian family intends to stay away from the rivers and lakes, the martial arts of the guards are not high, and it is more than enough to deal with the horse bandits who usually meet the robbers, but it is not enough to meet the real masters of the rivers and lakes.

When he brought Qian Ruihan over, Li Shishui also met several assassins along the way, and found that in fact, the assassins' martial arts were not high. However, the Assassins had the advantage of sneak attacks, and the current environment was favorable to the Assassins, which made it impossible for the guards to parry.

When all the guards retreated and returned, with the light of the torches around them now, and there was no way to retreat, the guards would definitely fight to the death, and they might not be able to stop these assassins.

However, Li Shishui still has a faint worry in his heart.

The Assassins spared no margin, even those who had already been seriously wounded. However, the Assassins were efficient, and only those who were in their path would make a move, and they didn't care about the people next to them for the time being, so the Assassins were already close to here, but the sound of wounded people could still be heard in the distance.

But Li Shishui's current situation can't do anything. And in this way, Li Shishui and their side must resist the assassin or drive away the assassin, otherwise, the assassin will definitely not stay in the end.

I don't know who was so bold as to dare to send a killer to assassinate Qian Ruihan, after all, Qian Ruihan is still the nominal head of the Qian family. However, this is not quite like a premeditated plan in advance, otherwise the killer's martial arts would not be so weak. And it doesn't look like a real killer actually did the killer to attack the entire convoy, rather than lurking in the shadows to target a specific target.

The figure of the killer can already be seen around. However, Li Shishui did not expect it badly, and after the guards did not retreat, coupled with the large number of guards, they also resisted the killer for a while.

However, Li Shishui was still a little worried about the arrow that was finally shot at Qian Ruihan. The person who can shoot that arrow is definitely not low in martial arts. If he was still in his prime, Li Shishui would naturally not be worried. But because these two are repairing the jade pendant, their internal strength has already gone to the top of the world. You can still use some martial arts skills to fend off these ordinary assassins, but it is not so easy to deal with real masters.

Among the many guards of the Qian family, Li Shishui took a closer look and did not find any masters. To be a real master, Li Shishui took care of Steward Yan's last wound, looked at Steward Yan, and thought in his heart that it might just be Steward Yan. But Steward Yan is seriously injured now, if he is not injured, there are many guards, plus he is helping by the side, he should be able to stop that master. But now Steward Yan will definitely not be able to make any more moves in the future.

Li Shishui helped Steward Yan up and let him rest on the carriage of Qian Furao.

Qian Ruihan and Zihe were close to each other, although they were afraid, they were also paying attention to the fighting around them, and they were slightly relieved to see the guards resisting the assassin. Seeing that Steward Yan was up, he hurriedly asked with concern, "Is Steward Yan okay?"

"The old slave is fine, sister don't worry. Steward Yan replied, wanting to stand up and reply, but was helped by Li Shishui to lean on the car.

"A few wounds are not fatal, but there is a bit of excessive blood loss, and Steward Yan still has to rest well. "Li Shi waterway.

"Steward Yan still listens to Li Gongzi, don't move yet, take a good rest. Qian Ruihan also saw that Steward Yan still wanted to get up again, so he persuaded. Zihe also hurriedly went over to help Steward Yan.

"The old slave is fine. Steward Yan replied, but he didn't get up again, he was indeed a little seriously injured.

"Can the carriage be opened again now?" Li Shishui looked around and suddenly asked, obviously Li Shishui also saw the mechanism on the carriage just now.

"Yes. As long as you find the trap, you can open it. "In this situation, for the sake of safety, Qian Ruihan did not open the carriage after knowing that Mrs. Qian was okay just now. In fact, I was also scared, forgetting that I could hide in the car. Although I don't know what Li Shishui is asking for, Qian Ruihan still answered truthfully.

"Li Gongzi, is there anything wrong?" Steward Yan saw that the guards had basically blocked the assassin now, as long as he held on, the assassin would retreat after a while. But since Li Shishui asked so, he definitely didn't ask casually, obviously he wanted to use this carriage. In this situation, when the carriage is used, it must break through and escape, so he wondered.

"Look over there. Li Shishui pointed in one direction.

"No problem. Qian Ruihan said. Although she was very scared, she dared to look in that direction at Li Shishui, Zihe kept shrinking and didn't even dare to raise her head. However, although Qian Ruihan looked at it, he didn't find anything, only saw that there was a fight everywhere.

Is this the river and lake she yearns for? No, she said to herself. But no matter how much she denies it, everything around her is ruthlessly revealing to her what the real rivers and lakes are like.

Steward Yan obviously saw more, and couldn't help frowning.

Although the guards of the Qian family are not high in martial arts, because they are responsible for protecting the master's family, they are very disciplined for this kind of guard. Even if there are people with higher or more martial arts skills than them, it is generally difficult to break through their guard circle.

Although at first they were attacked and injured a lot. But the number of assassins was obviously much smaller than them, and it was only by catching them off guard in the early stage that they suffered so many casualties. However, these Assassins' martial arts skills were not much higher than theirs, and now that they had basically adjusted from the panic of the assassination just now, they had completely kept the Assassins out of the defensive circle.

However, the enemy attacking from different directions is different, and the defense has to change from time to time. Although Steward Yan didn't know much about it, he could also see that in that direction, the surrounding guards were supplementing in that direction, but the defense in that direction was still weak and abnormal, and it was precarious.

Steward Yan was a little puzzled, and was about to ask, when he suddenly found that two guards in the direction pointed by Li Shishui fell violently. If it weren't for the presence of guards to fill the void, the Assassins would have rushed in.

If the assassins rushed in and the defense circle was in disarray, the sister and lady would be in danger.

Although Steward Yan was injured, his eyesight was still there, and he saw that two arrows were fired at the same time just now. The two guards couldn't dodge at all, and they fell to the ground directly after being hit by arrows. Steward Yan couldn't help frowning, worried in his heart, he had always wondered and was glad that the assassin's martial arts were so low, it seemed that the other party was also prepared.

There are masters!
