My name is Qi Changwei, and I am a member of the "Butterfly Valley", a declining sect in Jiangnan Wulin.

Nowadays, there are not many people in this sect who are serious about practicing martial arts. It's in the dark part where I'm located, and there are dozens of guys who are eating and waiting to die.

The shadows are actually assassin organizations that specialize in killing people and buying lives. I and the rest of my companions are semi-professional killers.

Some people do this business to make money, and some people do it to earn a living. And I, mainly for revenge.

I was originally a military general in the imperial court, and the size was also a thousand generals. There are more than 1,000 soldiers and horses under his command, including the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Yuwei Battalion. My ancestors and the national hero, General Qi Jiguang, are of the same ancestry.

My grandfather Qi Wuchen was a subordinate of General Qi Jiguang in the old days, and he always followed him to fight against the Japanese on the coast south of the Yangtze River, and my father Qi Baihong also led troops to resist the Mongols at the northern border pass.

It is said that my family has been born and died for several generations, and they have shed their blood for the court, and they are all truly loyal ministers, and I should not be in such a situation as today. However, it is hateful, good people have no reward, the world is dark, and the ethics are abnormal, and it is difficult to explain it with reason.

In this court, because of the Donglin party dispute, the government is becoming more and more popular, and the people are in turmoil. Later, the eunuchs and Jinyiwei intervened separately to sow discord, so that the emperor was ignorant and even designated my family as "thieves and ministers in a troubled country".

That's when the disaster began.

My father died at the hands of the eunuchs of Dongchang.

The dignified protector general was actually executed and tortured.

My military power was stripped overnight, and my original soldiers were monitored and disintegrated.

I know that it is useless to cry out for injustice, and if I do not flee quickly, but insist on resisting, I will sit and wait for death, and there is only one way to die.

I took my wife, children, mother, and favorite Ah Yu after several days of bloody battles, and finally escaped from the capital, but I didn't expect to encounter an accident.

There weren't many people left under my command, and the eunuchs and traitors sent people to chase and intercept them all the way, and when they fled to the ground of Shandong, there were less than a hundred dead soldiers left with me.

In the midst of the chaos, I didn't have time to protect everyone.

The endless hunt and plotting are exhausting and impossible to prevent.

By the time I arrived in Jinan, I was already completely ruined.

My mother died in the chaos of the night.

I almost dried my tears for this.

But there's something even more chilling, I don't even know how my wife was killed.

My wife's name is Jin Ling, and she was still holding my youngest son, Qi Bing, who was just three months old, in her arms.

She had already fled in a carriage under the cover of my little brother Mao Shen!

I didn't see her hit the arrow, not even Mao Shen, who was closest to her.

But from her back to her chest, there is an obvious black hole.

The blood flowed like an infusion.

It was as if someone had been shot through the back of the heart with a bow and arrow, and the front of the chest was exposed...... Until I into my son's body again.

No arrows or arrows were found in the carriage, nor were there any projectiles or fragments in the bodies of the two of them.

Therefore, it is not known what kind of weapon they died from, nor by whose hands they died.

The two of them died so strangely, as if they had been pierced by a ray of light out of thin air.

That day, after the pain, Mao Shen and I thought about it for a long time and analyzed together: "It's not an ordinary secret weapon. ”

Mao Shen said: "First of all, it can't be a firearm. Firearms do not fail to hear. Whether it is fire qiang or gun, it must be ignited by huo yao, and when bao po is driven by air current, it is impossible to shoot in a muffled voice. ”

I thought about it and said, "It's not a hidden weapon launched with bare hands. The darts and knives did not have such strong force, let alone such a long range and accuracy, and it was impossible to penetrate the curtain of the carriage and then penetrate the bodies of the two of them at such a long distance. ”

So......

We all realized, "It must be gong nu or mechanism." ”

This wound, no matter how you look at it, looks like a strong crossbow arrow passing through. But the strange thing is that there are no clues left.

Only one side of the carriage had a hole in the door where the bamboo curtain had been pierced, and the other side was intact.

It was like an arrow that shot through the two of her bodies, then disappeared completely.

......

Who is so vicious?

Who is so good at shooting both of them with one arrow?

What kind of bow or arrow can have such great power, precision, and concealment?

I had two battalions of soldiers under my command, and some of them were good at shooting in the "Yuwei Battalion", and they were usually good at bows and arrows.

With this question in mind, we continued our flight.

Outside Yanzhou City, there are only thirty-five of our men left.

Except for those soldiers who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, no, now I call them all "brothers", they are all the descendants of loyal warriors who used to be loyal to the Qi family's army! Since their grandfather's generation, they have been true friends who have come and gone with our Qi family! In addition to them, there are only me who is exhausted, Mao Shen who is covered in bruises, and poor Ah Yu, who is also covered in scars!

Ah Yu is nicknamed "Embroidered Spring Knife", she was originally the personal guard of the queen's mother, how honorable! But now she has accompanied me to this point.

The knife that the queen had given her herself was now jagged. In addition to the iron spear in her hand that she snatched to support her body, she only had the "Abyss" sword at her waist.

The martial arts of the three of us are higher, but the main combat power still depends on these thirty-two brothers who regard death as home.

Now, apart from me, their supreme "chief" is one of my lieutenants, who was originally a general in charge of three or four hundred people. His name is Wang Dongjun, nicknamed "Green-Eyed Eagle", and he is the number one marksman in my "Yuwei Battalion".

Flee continuously, day and night.

We have long run out of dry food and drinking water.

Martial law is under law in the city of Yanzhou, and it is difficult for us to get in and buy food and supplies.

So we started killing the horses and eating them.

It's the beginning of autumn. At night, the cold wind hit, and those of us were shivering with food and clothing in the wild.

In order to make it easier to hide and avoid exposure, we didn't dare to make too many fires in the field, but just built a few simple "stoves" with some stones for cooking and lighting.

In the middle of the night, we took turns to change shifts, taking turns to sleep and warn.

Because of the presence of this woman, Ah Yu, everyone avoids her when it is convenient to relieve them. When Mao Shen was on duty, he walked away for a moment, and disappeared far into the woods. I was asleep when I suddenly woke up because of a cold wind.

At this time, I saw a scene that I had never expected.

Wang Dongjun also got up quietly at some point.

He should have been sleeping, but if he hadn't behaved strangely, I probably wouldn't have suspected him until I died.

He took advantage of our "unaware" and quietly followed Mao Shen to the woods.

He must not have been there to relieve him, for I squinted and saw with my own eyes that he had quietly brought the pocket bolts.

......

Sure enough, when the "green-eyed eagle" quietly aimed at Mao Shen's back in a hidden place in the dark night, I guessed who my wife and children died at.

His crossbow arrows turned out to be equipped with a strange kind of arrowhead.

Arrowheads made of ice.

It's ridiculous that he has been an errand boy under me for more than ten years, and I have never seen him do such a thing!

No wonder it shot through the bamboo curtain of the carriage and through the bodies of Jinling and my son, but in the end it disappeared.

This arrow has turned into blood and is hidden in my son's body.

Hateful! hateful -

He actually died at the hands of "his own people"! Baidu read the latest chapter of "Wolong Cave Mingjie Literature" for free for the first time.
