Chapter Ninety-Seven: Street Fighting

The master and apprentice broke up on the edge of Nancheng, Tie Hanfeng took the two horses to the South Wall Tavern, and Gu Shenwei personally drove the carriage back to the apprentices' hiding place.

Shangguan Yushi was waiting for him angrily.

According to the plan, the assassination team should return to Jinpeng Fort at this time, but it was delayed for more than half a day in order to wait for a minion.

"I thought you had escaped, but if you did, it would have saved you a lot of trouble. Shangguan Yushi said coldly, pointing to the corpse in the center of the hall, "No one testifies for you, it's a coincidence that the old dragon's head is dead." ”

The fatal wound of the corpse was in the chest, and the head was also there, which was obviously not the style of Jinpeng Castle's murder.

"It's okay, I found another person in the know. Gu Shenwei turned around and glanced at the carriage parked in the courtyard, "He wanted to run, but I caught him." ”

"He confessed?"

"He tried to resist and I had to knock him out. ”

A person turned out from behind Shangguan Yushi, the anger in his eyes was even more blazing than that of the killer, it was Liuhua, holding a short bow in his left hand, and pressing his right hand on the quiver at his waist, he was extremely sensitive to the word "stunned".

"Take him out, wake him up, I'm going to interrogate him myself. Shangguan Yushi ordered, she also wanted to know who the traitor was, this person even wanted to plot against Yu Gongzi, and he was really bold.

"I think it's better to take him up the mountain and hand him over to the Washing Heart Courtyard immediately, so as not to have too many dreams at night. Gu Shenwei suggested, raised his head and glared back at Liuhua, he didn't kill last night, the only reason was Dongbao's "ban on killing".

Shangguan Yushi was reluctant to follow any of Huan Nu's suggestions, but this time was different, she knew very well in her heart that if the traitor was an important person in the castle, interrogating herself would provoke anger, and handing it over to the Heart Washing Academy seemed to be the best choice.

"Let's go now, no, wait until it's dark. Shangguan Yushi glanced outside, and immediately changed his mind, more than twenty killer apprentices walked together on the street in broad daylight, which violated the image of the killer, and it was not long before it got dark.

This is in line with Gu Shenwei's plan, "You have to protect the people in the car, the old dragon head has been extinguished, and this exposed traitor will naturally not be let go." ”

Shangguan Yushi arranged for the apprentices to guard around the carriage in shifts, lifted the curtain and glanced at it, then immediately put it down again, and looked back at Huan Nu.

Gu Shenwei had been following behind Yu Gongzi, leaned closer and whispered, "Someone will definitely come, it's best to capture it alive." ”

Shangguan Yushi leaned back slightly, kept his distance from Huan Nu in disgust, and understood the trick of this minion, "The news has spread?"

"The whole South City has heard about it. ”

Gu Shenwei believed in Master's ability to spread "rumors", and Tie Hanfeng was probably "accidentally" leaking the news in the tavern at this time using that set of vague language.

"I hope you don't get too smart this time. ”

"Lord Killer, I'm not the only one this traitor wants to get rid of. ”

Shangguan Yushi snorted, Huan Nu's words hit her mind, as she became closer and closer to Shangguan Ru, the tenth prince, she had already felt the cruelty of the open and secret battles in the castle, in comparison, the threat of this slave was not worth mentioning.

Shangguan Yushi re-issued the order, and the five apprentices stood guard around the carriage, and the other apprentices ambushed in different positions in the courtyard, deliberately leaving a few loopholes to let the killer in.

A group of apprentice killers, laying a net, waiting to capture another killer alive.

It was completely dark, and there were still no attackers, and if it continued to wait, it would only be suspicious, Shangguan Yushi issued an order to return to the stone fort on the mountain, and arranged the marching formation in detail, she and four apprentices guarded the carriage front and rear, sixteen apprentices were on guard on the perimeter, and Huan Nu continued to act as a coachman.

The streets of Nancheng were rough and cold, the snow in the day was frozen like hard stones, the carriage was moving slowly, and the apprentices were cautious with the hilts of their swords in hand.

In the evening, it was the moment when the popularity of Nancheng doubled, and the harsh weather could not stop a wave of guests from coming out from all directions, this group of teenagers seemed quite different, some people avoided walking, and some people were not afraid of anything, but approached to watch.

A drunken man suddenly rushed out of an unlit house, grabbed the wheel and vomited, and the apprentice guarding the car was caught off guard and did not stop him.

Shangguan Yushi didn't say a word, he pulled out a knife and slashed at the drunk man, Yu Gongzi was not bad, that person could also do martial arts, and he was quite agile, he was short, he got under the car, and cursed uncleanly.

The nearby apprentices drew their knives and stabbed under the car, but the man was not only not injured, but also found an opportunity to suddenly turn over and jump onto the saddle, lift the curtain and look inside, and then shouted "good knife" and jumped onto the nearby roof.

Gu Shenwei's narrow knife was pressed under his leg, and as soon as the drunk appeared, he was ready, and almost at the same time as the drunk turned over, he also pulled the knife out of the sheath.

The drunken man was strong in martial arts, but he underestimated the skill of the young man who drove the car, and only had time to glance at the car in a hurry, and his left arm had already been stabbed.

There were also apprentices on the roof who were in charge of the perimeter guard, and once the drunk man lost the opportunity, he immediately passed every step of the way, and only then did the "good knife" exit, and two "good knives" quietly attacked.

The drunkard didn't squeak, he stepped back again and again, waving his hands in a circle, as if stepping on the ice, and then fell heavily, and an apprentice ran over to take a look, and nodded when he rushed to Guan Yu, and the troublesome drunk died.

The drunkard was unlucky, and one of the two apprentices he met after jumping on the roof was the Mustang with the best martial arts.

Gu Shenwei was a little disappointed that he couldn't capture this person alive, but the drunk man was obviously a spy, and there must be more powerful people after him.

The apprentices are in high spirits, and fighting against an unknown enemy is much more exciting than slaughtering a small gang of inconsequential people.

The attack took place in Liuren Alley.

Liuren Lane is located in Chongqu, it is the only place to return to Beicheng, and it is also the most densely populated place, there are not many guests who really have money to play in the building, most of them just pass by, stretching their necks, hoping to see the figure of a famous prostitute.

The carriage fell into the crowd, and it was even more difficult to prevent pedestrians from approaching, Gu Shenwei just drove the horse forward, regardless of whether there was anyone in front of him, causing a lot of scolding, slowly, the scolding became more and more, as if someone organized, Gu Shenwei grabbed the reins and the whip with his left hand at the same time, and held the handle of the knife with his right hand, knowing that the last moment was coming.

The windows of the small buildings on both sides were pushed open one by one, and many people leaned out to see the excitement, among which were quite famous prostitutes, so the street became even more chaotic.

An old woman shouted in a hoarse voice, "Hey, little girl dressed as a man, come to us, I will teach you a few tricks to ensure that men love you to death!"

Shangguan Yushi's face was pale, and he shook his hand and flew out of a hidden weapon, the old woman upstairs had already been on guard, and her shoulder was still scratched, so she retracted her head, her mouth was not idle, and she shouted like a pig, "Kill! kill!"

The cry was like a code, and the six or seven small buildings on both sides were all gone, and more than a dozen arrows were fired at the same time, all aimed at the carriage.

This class of killer apprentices has a good reputation in Jinpeng Castle, and few people in Biyu City know about it, and the vast majority of people inevitably despise these more than 20 teenagers.

There were also more than 20 attackers, and only fourteen arrows were fired, and the rest were killed by the apprentices in the house as soon as they emerged, and after a round of arrows, ** corpses fell from the upper floor to the street.

The prostitute in the building immediately cried and screamed, this time she was genuinely afraid, and it was no longer a bluff.

The pedestrians on the street did not understand the truth of the matter for a while, thinking that it was another trick played by the prostitutes in the alley, and some even shouted loudly, until several pedestrians who were accidentally injured by arrows cried wolf for help, and the street was in chaos.

Four of the fourteen arrows missed, injuring the hapless pedestrian, seven were broken by the guard's apprentice, and three still broke through the windows and entered the car.

Gu Shenwei grabbed the reins, drew his knife and turned around, opened an arrow, and opened the curtain to check.

One arrow was nailed to the car, and the other two arrows hit the real coachman, and the Xu family siblings hid under the coachman and shivered.

"You come!" Gu Shenwei shouted, grabbed Xu Xiaoyi, pulled it out, and stuffed the reins and horse whip into his hand, "Steady, don't let the horse run." With that, he jumped on top of the trunk.

Xu Xiaoyi was so frightened that he didn't even have the strength to refuse, he shrunk into a ball and clutched the reins tightly, as if he was clutching his own life.

Fighting was going on in all directions, inside the building, on the rooftops, on the streets, the sound of weapons colliding, the young apprentices were silent, the attackers were shouting and scolding, and the momentum was quite strong, but the sound became less and less.

Last night's imperfect assassination had pushed the teenagers' long-accumulated killing poke** to the highest point, and they desperately needed a vent, and the attackers who hit the knife edge broke into the wolf's den like a flock of sheep, and blood and flesh were splashed in an instant.

Gu Shenwei knelt on the roof of the car on one leg and looked around nervously, and suddenly found that the four apprentices guarding the car and Shangguan Yushi were gone, and they couldn't resist the temptation of blood, so they all jumped upstairs to chase the last few attackers.

The compact formation disintegrated in an instant, and the battle spread outward to the rest of the streets, leaving no one to stop in the alleys, leaving only a lone carriage and a lone defender.

A group of people came running from the streets on horseback, breaking the lanterns every time they passed a small building, like a black cloud that was about to envelop the entire street.

"Run!" Gu Shenwei ordered, but the carriage was still motionless, Xu Xiaoyi was completely stunned, his body was as stiff as a wooden knife, and he grabbed the reins and didn't let go.

Gu Shenwei slapped Xu Xiaoyi on the head with the back of the knife, Xu Xiaoyi screamed miserably, and fainted backwards.

The two horses pulling the cart were restrained for too long, and as soon as they got out of the reins, they immediately ran lifelessly, almost knocking Gu Shenwei off the roof of the car.

Gu Shenwei tightly grabbed the roof strip, and secretly scolded Xu Xiaoyi for being useless.

The carriage ran uncontrollably for dozens of steps, and suddenly stabilized again, Gu Shenwei looked at it, it was Xu Yanwei who came out of the car and grabbed the reins, she looked delicate and weak, but when it came to the end, she was much stronger than her younger brother.

"Don't be too fast. ”

Gu Shenwei shouted, the apprentices were red-eyed, and there was almost no room for survival, so he had to arrest people himself.

The group of people chased faster and faster, and Gu Shenwei was already able to distinguish the figures, a total of eleven people, all holding long knives commonly used by bandits, without masks.

"That's him!" shouted one of the pursuers.

Gu Shenwei was shocked in his heart, this "he" obviously refers to himself, and their main target should be the "insider" in the car, why did he become himself?
