There was a big news in Nancheng, most people didn't care much about it, but some senior drinkers talked about it.

Lu Qiying, the shopkeeper of Lu Qiying, who has been running the South Wall Tavern for many years, officially announced that he would change hands on the tavern, and he would go to Shule Country to retire.

The shopkeeper Lu is not too old, only in his fifties, and the trading in his hands is making money, and he is at the peak of his life.

Of course, the drunkards were not concerned about him, but whether the fine wines would change their taste, and when the new shopkeeper announced in public that everything in the tavern would remain unchanged, the supply channels, preservation methods, prices, etc. were all the same, and the drunkards were relieved, except for a few people who sighed with the shopkeeper Lu, no one was interested in this matter.

Lu Qiying also walked in a hurry, and didn't even say goodbye to his relatives and friends one by one, but seemed to be on the run, and some people couldn't help but speculate, "I saw him secretly visiting the Dragon King a few days ago, and now he is running so fast, could it be that the matter has not been discussed, he is afraid, right?"

Lu Qiying, who removed the identity of the tavern shopkeeper, was indeed a little scared in his heart, but he was not afraid of the Dragon King, but the enemy of the Dragon King, but he felt more excited.

He's about to start a newer and bigger business.

The Dragon King wants to build another business network in the Western Regions, Xiao Fengchai sits in Biyu City, and Lu Qiying is responsible for establishing strongholds in various countries, and the first stop is Shule Kingdom.

Shule is the largest country in the Western Regions, and once it has a firm foothold here, this undertaking will be half the battle.

Among the more than 100 swordsmen under his command, Lu Qiying selected 37 people who had followed him for a long time and were loyal and trustworthy, to protect his savings for many years and go to a broader world.

This was a huge adventure, and Lu Qiying, who had passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, was as excited as a fledgling young man, sitting in the carriage with a smile on his face, until he saw his palm that was missing a finger, and he did not hold his mind.

The finger was cut off by the dragon king many years ago, when the dragon king was just a slave.

The hope of success and the risk of failure are closely related to this pale young man, but how to deal with this murderous demon king, Lu Qiying is not very sure.

The dragon king was also in the convoy, mixed in with thirty-seven guards.

This matter is a top secret in Biyu City, and the surroundings of the Dragon King's Mansion have not been peaceful these days, and there are always bold swordsmen who are watching from afar, and sometimes they will launch provocations, such as scolding and scolding that no one can hear, and a hidden weapon that suddenly flies, so everyone thinks that the Dragon King must be waiting in the palace.

Even the guards of the Dragon King's Mansion believed that the master was in the backyard, Jiang still served tea and water on time every day, Xu Xiaoyi would still come to report the situation, no different from usual, and the Dragon King was as elusive as usual, and no one could see him.

With these covers, Gu Shenwei took the Lotus Girl and eleven Xiaoyue Hall disciples to hide in Lu Qiying's team, and had already left Biyu City.

Except for the Lotus Girl, the other disciples of Xiaoyue Hall are scattered in Biyu City, and they rarely appear, only the Lotus Girl has a way to find them at any time.

After the first night of camping, Lu Qiying's guards were less than three, but this almost didn't attract any attention, and he didn't seem to notice it himself, and the next morning he continued to hurry, and there were still ten female killers left in the team, which made him feel very reassured.

Gu Shenwei, Henu, and Guan Shang hid in the nearby mountains, waiting for Meng Da, who arrived a day late.

Among the three, Guan Shang, the former blue-faced assassin of Jinpeng Castle, was the main force in the assassination.

Under normal circumstances, Jinpeng killers like to kill people with knives, and cut off their heads afterwards to ensure that nothing goes wrong, but this time the situation is special, both public and hidden, and can not indiscriminately kill guards, so Gu Shenwei decided to take a long-range attack and use a crossbow to kill.

There is a specialization in the art industry, and among the dragon kings, Guan Shang is the best at bow and crossbow techniques.

They carried a huge crossbow, almost a man's height when erected, and the bowstring required the combined efforts of five ordinary people to open, and the range was hundreds of paces, with the best effect within two hundred paces.

The Dutch girl was in charge of monitoring the way, and the Guan Shang practiced using this giant crossbow, and Gu Shen gave advice in order to help her open the string and observe the effect.

They were doing the same thing all day, boring and boring, but fortunately, the three of them were all highly trained killers, and they were used to it, especially Guan Shang, who had gone through a complete green noodle training, and was much more mature than the two young people in terms of skills and mentality.

Gu Shenwei secretly wondered what kind of evil medicine the so-called "blood coagulation and brain fixing pill" was, which could actually make people like Guan Shang change their allegiance, or was this another trick? But looking at the appearance of the lotus girl, she trusted Guan Shang very much.

Although it was rarely revealed, Gu Shenwei knew that the Dutch girl was no less suspicious than him.

In the evening of the same day, Meng Da's motorcade arrived.

The outskirts of Biyu City are desolate, and there are not many suitable places for camping, so it is not surprising at all that the place where Meng Da camped was exactly the same as Lu Qiying.

The best time to assassinate is, of course, before dark, when the camp is chaotic, the cordon has not yet been fully established, and the line of sight is ideal.

Gu Shenwei and Guan Shang wore snow-colored cloaks and hid on the mountain, and the lotus girl lurked on the side of the road to observe closely, and the three of them saw Meng Da's figure, and there were several excellent opportunities, but they didn't make a move.

Jinpeng Fort sent thirty killers and a hundred swordsmen to protect Meng Dagongzi, this is a powerful force, even if Gu Shenwei leads everyone in the Dragon King's Mansion, he may not be able to destroy this line of defense.

At the same time, it is also a very experienced force.

Before setting up camp, five killers and ten knifemen had already arrived in advance, and conducted an almost inch-by-inch search around the camp, including the nearby hillside, leaving nothing unusual.

The place where the merchants practiced using their crossbows was only a few miles away from the camp, and there were stray footprints and traces of the damage that an uncommon bow and crossbow could cause.

Gu Shenwei realized that he was still not careful enough, he should have chosen a farther place, but this was just a false alarm, recently, the swordsmen were less than a mile away from the crossbow field, but they did not move on, they obviously felt that the scope of the inspection was always large enough.

Despite this, Gu Shenwei still kept this incident in his heart and regarded it as a lesson.

There was a protruding boulder on the hillside, only more than two hundred steps away from the camp, which was the location chosen by Guan Shang to do his hand, and it was also the key inspection place for the Jinpeng killers, and the two killers seemed to be very dissatisfied with this place, and checked back and forth three or four times, and finally assigned a knife man to guard here, it was this knife man who brought the most trouble to the assassination.

Gu Shenwei and the other three hid very well, and no clues were revealed, but they couldn't enter the attack position at all, so naturally they couldn't take advantage of the chaos before dark, they could only wait, which was almost the most basic job of the killer.

When night falls, a fire is lit by the knife hand on the boulder on the hillside, which is not only to keep warm, but also to facilitate communication with the friends below the mountain.

Soon, the people in the camp began to rest, and there was not much time left for the three assassins.

When discussing the assassination plan in advance, Gu Shenwei suddenly remembered Shangguan Ruying's figure on the window, so he formulated a backup plan accordingly: if he didn't have a chance to attack before dark, wait until Meng Da returned to the tent and aimed at the shadow.

There are a lot of loopholes in this plan, Meng Da may rest when he enters the account, and he will not light the lamp at all, and it is very inaccurate to rely on the shadow to determine the specific location of the real person, and so on.

Gu Shenwei still wanted to give it a try, if this opportunity was also lost, he would have no other plans, but would quickly return to Biyu City with the Lotus Girl and Guan Shang, so that Meng Da could live for another month or two.

Now, even with this less reliable backup plan, they face an obstacle: the knife hand guarding the boulder.

The Knife Man is a man from Jinpeng Castle and cannot be killed.

The Lotus Girl quietly walked back and reported that Meng Da had already lit the lamp in the tent and wanted to do it as soon as possible.

The three of them spoke in very low voices, quickly perfected the whole plan, and then set to action.

Gu Shenwei gave birth to a trace of excitement in his calm heart, this is a long-lost and familiar feeling, although he is reluctant to admit it, but the cooperation with the lotus girl has indeed multiplied his strength, if the people around him are Chu Nanping and Tie Linglong, he can only be forced to give up this assassination plan.

Once again, he felt like he had failed at raising killers.

Gu Shenwei quietly approached the knife hand on the boulder, and at the moment when the other party opened his mouth and yawned, he suddenly jumped out, sprinkled medicine, took off his cloak, stood still, and did it in one go, just in the blink of an eye, the knife hand had already fallen, and it was the Dragon King himself who was guarding the boulder instead of him, even if someone was watching in the camp under the mountain, he would only think that he was dazzled at this time.

Xiao Yuetang is good at pharmaceuticals, and it is easy to charm a knife hand in an instant.

Gu Shenwei was also wearing black clothes in his snow-colored cloak, and from a distance, he was no different from a knife hand.

He saw Meng Da's tent, there was a vague black shadow, too large and too unclear, and it was very difficult to judge the direction of the owner of the figure based on this.

But he still decided to give it a go and not to waste this opportunity.

Guan Shang came behind him, holding the giant crossbow that had been opened, crouching low, waiting for the dragon king's order, while Gu Shenwei waited for the signal.

There was a small faint light at the foot of the mountain, fleeting, and no one would notice it unless they paid special attention.

"From. ”

With a short word, Guan Shang immediately stood up, set up a giant crossbow on the dragon king's outstretched left arm, and aimed at the blurred black shadow on the tent.

Gu Shen checked the number in a whisper, and the customs merchants carefully calibrated that they only had one chance, and they had to evacuate immediately regardless of whether they succeeded or not.

The Lotus Girl was at the edge of the camp at this time, and could see the situation inside more clearly, and when a group of guards had just passed by, the people in the tent stood up, and she blew a piece of velvet that had been burned beforehand, and then immediately extinguished it, and retreated first.

Gu Shen found ten and gave the lotus girl time to escape to a safe place.

Guan Shang pulled the trigger, and five or six feet long iron arrows whistled out.

The two immediately threw down their crossbows and quickly descended the mountain.

The guards in the camp were immediately alert, and the whistle sounded.

Arrows are on the way.

When the iron arrow reached the end and dozens of figures in the camp rushed towards the boulder, Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl had already marched towards Biyu City overnight, and Guan Shang was left behind to confirm the final result.
