231, Thorn Sun

Just when Fengxiang City was changing the city lord and reorganizing the city's defense affairs, in a slum in the imperial city, Ye Feng was holding half a steamed bun in his hand, eating cold water, and there was a pile of firewood in front of him.

This time when he entered the city, things didn't work out, on the contrary, Ye Xuansoul and Ye Jihuan were captured, which was a great shame for the Xiliang Ye family, but in the face of such a net, if it weren't for Ye Feng's ninjutsu, even he wouldn't be able to escape.

Ye Xuan's soul must be saved, otherwise his backer will be gone, and although he can still eat with his own ability, it is impossible to achieve the glory of the past.

Since there are many traps here, then Fengxiang City must not be much better, and if he goes back, he may not be able to return.

After hiding in the east of the imperial city for a long time, Ye Feng still couldn't make up his mind what to do, and the palm prints left by Ye Xuan's soul on his back were still hot.

Just as Ye Feng was thinking about Ye Xuan's words, a rickety figure squeezed over and sat beside him.

This is a dilapidated cave in the Poor Cave, with no tiles on the top, no good soil below, and the wind is permeable on all sides, but a group of beggars and homeless people are entrenched here, and it is not surprising to sit alone at this time.

But Ye Feng was not used to being approached, so he subconsciously sat next to him, but the man leaned over again.

Ye Feng frowned, stood up and wanted to leave this broken cave, but the person's faint voice came.

"You've got a wound on your back, and if you don't take medicine right away, you're in danger. It was an old man with a wrinkled face who spoke, but his eyes were very transparent.

Ye Feng's face froze, and he stepped forward in a few steps to approach the old man, and his palm was attached to the old man's chest, ready to exert his strength at any time.

The old man didn't seem to feel Ye Feng's malice, and still said unhurriedly: "There are already people who want to chase you all over the city, but they are definitely not here, there are only bitter people here, just like me, no one will look at them even if they die." ”

Ye Feng's palm slowly lowered, and he glanced at the beggars in the distance, and they all looked up with dull eyes, like a walking corpse.

That's right, it's a dead sea, and the people waiting here are not so much alive as dead.

"Who the hell are you, what are you doing here?" Ye Feng asked vigilantly, it was definitely not an ordinary person who could do so without being surprised.

The old man smiled, then walked behind his back with his hands behind his back.

"Come with me if you want to know, there are too many people like you. ”

Behind this dilapidated cave is a wasteland, littered with garbage and a stench that even the lowliest beggars do not want to come here.

But it's home to a group of scavengers who make a living by rummaging through the garbage heaps and looking for valuable items from the rubble.

They are like skeletons and ghosts under the prosperity of the imperial city, living in the darkest corners.

Ye Feng frowned, but he still followed the old man, walked through the garbage mountain, and came to the bottom of the wall.

There was a hole under the root of the wall, and there were several scavengers living in it, and among them, there was a person sitting upright, and looking at this person's sitting posture, Ye Feng couldn't help but be stunned.

This kind of sitting posture can only be possessed by people who have been in high positions for a long time, and this is obviously a garbage dump, a place that even beggars dislike.

"Ye Feng, the special ninja of the country, the adopted son of the Xiliang Ye family, the first assassin in the world, is the strongest assassin except for the king of assassins, Ye Xuansoul. The man said slowly, his tone solemn and dignified, like the great master of the temple.

"You're here to catch me too?" Although Ye Feng knew that this might not be big, he had to guard against it, he had a unique ninjutsu, and if he wanted to escape, no one could keep him.

The other party did not answer him, but continued: "You and Ye Broken Soul want to assassinate Cai Qianzhou, and even Zhu Lin, but unfortunately this place has long been impregnable, you are very smart, you don't go out of the city at this time, otherwise what awaits you will be a catastrophe, tens of thousands of crossbowmen have already been ambushed outside the city, and you have nowhere to escape!"

This person was right, this was also what Ye Feng had taken into account, so he took the risk of hiding in the city and avoiding those traps. But he didn't know how long he was going to hide, and he didn't know when the other party would suddenly appear to round him up.

This is the imperial city, and it is not only the elite soldiers in the city who round him up, but also the masters of the world, but he can't afford to provoke just Jiang Hongye.

"You're right, you have more information than I know, I don't know who the superior is?" Ye Feng asked in a deep voice, the other party said so much, but he didn't reveal any malicious intent, presumably there must be other plans.

"The masters can't talk about it, it's just the end of the world. The man walked out of the hole as he spoke, and the scavengers followed, and with this movement it was clear that they were all first-class masters.

Surrounded by first-class masters, there was an old man in his fifties with a dark face, although he was wearing shabby clothes, his every move was the breath of a superior person.

Those entourages were also very well-behaved, standing on both sides, staring at Ye Feng and being silent.

This faction has the appearance of a big family, could it be that the person in front of him is the leader of the local beggar gang?

As soon as this thought came to mind, the old man interrupted Ye Feng's blind thoughts: "Although I have different circumstances with you, we have a common enemy, and if you want to break this dead end, there is only this one chance." ”

Ye Feng blurted out and asked, "What is the chance?"

The old man approached Ye Feng and whispered, "A chance to enter the palace, don't you want to pierce the sun?"

Ye Feng's eyes suddenly froze, the plan to pierce the sun was extremely secret, and now that even this old man knew about it, it was no wonder that he was blocked in the inn.

"How do you know how to enter the palace, who are you?" Ye Feng asked.

The old man laughed and said: "You don't have to worry about this, as long as you know that apart from you, I am the person who hates the emperor the most in the world, and I want him to die the most." There is also my internal response in the palace, he will help you avoid the guards, and I also have a full map of the palace defenses, which will definitely help you. ”

Ye Feng took the old man's drawings and asked puzzledly, "What do you want to get for helping me?"

The old man turned around, looked at the garbage heap in the distance, and the group of crazy scavengers, as if he was saying to Ye Feng, and seemed to be talking to himself: "Do you see those people who snatch the garbage like the group of well-dressed beasts in the palace? ”

Ye Feng didn't get the answer he wanted, but he still left, no matter what, this plan to assassinate the sun was his only turning point, once the Son of Heaven died, the entire imperial city would be in chaos, and then it would be a good opportunity for him to escape.

As Ye Feng left, the old man reached out and wiped it on his face, and the original face faded away, revealing a familiar face.

Cao Bingbing, the former first minister in the world, lives by this garbage heap at the moment, a place that no one notices.

At this moment, Cao Zhubing looked at the direction of the palace and said viciously: "Emperor Xiao'er, tonight is your death, and then it will be the time for my Cao to make a comeback!"
