The taste of being kidnapped was really uncomfortable, but Gu Tianqi was helpless at this time.

From Ghost Five's cold tone, he could hear another passage, "If someone must be sent to death at this time, then it is not your subordinates of the Easy Gang, it can only be yourself!"

He naturally didn't want to lose his own life and his brother's life, and just when he habitually hesitated, there was a period of silence in this narrow and remote alley, only the sound of the rain did not mind, and he continued to shout bravely.

However, it was such a short period of silence that made Scarface, who had been sitting leisurely on the wheel, stunned for a moment.

At that moment, he distinctly heard a voice from the compound next to him, a voice that made him feel terrified.

It was the sound of a boot stepping into stagnant water, and it was only a sound, but it made the battle-hardened veteran nervous, "It's, no! and the sound of a crossbow being wound, not an ordinary crossbow, but a bed crossbow." ”

This is the experience of a good soldier and his amazing intuition.

Just as he had guessed, in the courtyard next to it, which seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, dozens of elite soldiers in raincoats were checking the crossbow arrows in their hands to complete the final preparations.

They were extremely silent, silent like dozens of mutes, and none of them spoke casually, even if the commander was communicating in sign language when giving orders.

Behind the soldiers, a middle-aged man in a lily coat was sitting quietly in the pavilion, his rain hat pressed so low that he couldn't see his face clearly, while his right hand was gently grasping a long sword drenched in rain.

Outside the pavilion, that is, directly in front of the clothed man, the two bed crossbows were already ready to go, and the tips of the two giant arrows pointed to a certain position outside the wall, which was the location of the carriage where Scarface and Xu Chen were riding.

An ordinary soldier knows that the bed crossbow is the pinnacle of crossbow weapons, it relies on the combined force of several bows to shoot an arrow, such a crossbow arrow requires dozens of people to turn the wheel shaft to pull away, the range is 500 meters away, if the distance is closer, even the ordinary city wall can be shot through, its power can be seen.

At this time, a richly dressed middle-aged man holding a black umbrella walked into the pavilion very comfortably, he shook off the rain on the umbrella at will, and put the black umbrella on the stone table.

Zhang Qinglian casually brushed off the dust on a stone bench, sat down with a relaxed expression, and then glanced at the clothed man opposite and asked softly, "Li Dutong, is everything ready?"

"Of course, the soldiers I bring will never procrastinate, they are the last line of defense in the imperial capital, they are the best soldiers in the empire!"

The man in the cloth replied coldly, but he still didn't look up, "Lord Zhang, I still don't understand, why General Ximen wants me to go out, I privately transfer troops like this, if the court knows about it, it will destroy the nine clans!"

Zhang Qinglian coughed lightly twice, I don't know if it was really an itchy throat, or if he was thinking about something, "Li Dutong, don't think too much! This is a simple action, you and I are both old acquaintances of General Ximen, and we should make a contribution, isn't it?"

"Humph!"

Li Dutong snorted coldly, and said with great disdain: "Lord Zhang! You are really generous, even the Imperial Forest Army has been mobilized privately, and you actually say that this is just a simple action?"

At this time, Li Dutong suddenly raised his head slightly, glanced at Zhang Qinglian and said coldly: "Lord Zhang, I am gambling with my life at the moment, if it weren't for General Ximen's kindness to me back then, I would never have done this today, so I also hope that Lord Zhang can talk to me openly and honestly, at least I should know who those two people outside are, right?

Looking at Li Dutong's fierce gaze, Zhang Qinglian hesitated slightly, in order not to make things bigger, he thought for a moment and then said softly: "Li Dutong, don't be anxious, I didn't say that I won't tell you! The middle-aged man outside is the one with a scar on his face, he is from the An family!"

"Huh?"

Li Dutong's body trembled suddenly, "You dare to kill even the people of the An family, you ......"

Seeing that Li Dutong looked a little flustered, Zhang Qinglian hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't worry! What's wrong with the people of the An family? General Ximen has long been tired of seeing him in peace, don't you already know this? Don't worry! It's going to be fine, I invite you here this time, don't you just want things to be done safely, tomorrow when the rain stops, there will be nothing here, who will know what happened today? Those two people have evaporated from the world since then, what does it have to do with you and me? Even if the imperial court investigates it in the future, isn't there still the Xiaoyao Gang who is responsible for the black cauldron? The gang has killed many people in private fights, will the imperial court still think elsewhere?"

Hearing Zhang Qinglian say this, Li Dutong calmed down a little, nodded and said: "It turns out that this group of gangsters came here to carry the black pot, I said why did Master Zhang invite a group of wastes over." Well...... And who is the other one?

Zhang Qinglian smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "No! Let's be honest with you, that young man is the main purpose today, but who he is, or rather, whether he is that person or not, I can't be sure now, and no one can be sure, just in case! To put it bluntly, we are here to wipe General Simon's ass today, we have to wipe General Simon's ass clean, but we can't get ourselves dirty, do you understand this time? haha!"

After speaking, Zhang Qinglian also laughed self-deprecatingly.

"So, who is that young man, or who does General Simon think he might be?"

Li Dutong asked curiously.

Zhang Qinglian immediately waved his hand and said warningly: "Li Dutong, you have been an official for many years, and you are in the Imperial Forest Army, so you know the habits of soldiers better, they will not be like us civil officials, if you want to kill someone, you will write a letter to impeach you." If you know too much, I'm afraid you'll also become a piece of shit on General Simon's ass, and when the time comes, what will happen to you, I think you know better than me, right?"

"This ......"

Li Dutong hesitated and panicked. He naturally knew General Simon's methods, even if he didn't know it yesterday, he should have known about it today.

The rain is cold, just like his heart at the moment.

At this time, Scarface, who was outside the courtyard wall, was already aware of the danger, which he had not thought of at all in his plan, or rather, he had not expected Xu Chen to cause such a big storm, which couldn't help but make him start to guess Xu Chen's origin again.

"Boy, I'm afraid we'll have to go. ”

Scarface looked at the crowd opposite, and said in a low voice: "There are soldiers within the walls of this courtyard, and there are bed crossbows, if we don't leave now, I'm afraid we both will have to die here!"

"Now?"

Xu Chen asked softly.

Scarface nodded slightly, "I'm just afraid it's too late at this point." If something happens for a while, you don't care about me, you go back to Anfu, it's the safest place, you know?"

The danger that can make Scarface so scared is naturally not something Xu Chen can imagine, but Xu Chen did not speak, but casually glanced at the courtyard wall next to him.

Xu Chen knew that these people were coming for him, and the more dangerous it was at this time, the more the other party knew about it, and that was exactly what he wanted to know, which was a dilemma.

The gangsters were still standing tremblingly not far away, not daring to take a step forward. Scarface's flying sword just now let them know what the gap is, in front of Scarface, they are a swarm of ants, so they are scared and afraid.

It's just that they don't know that at this time, they are just as afraid and scared as Scarface, and besides, he has already decided to go, but he is choosing the best time.

Xu Chen looked at Scarface's back silently, for some reason, at this time, he actually had a trace of gratitude from his heart, no matter whether he would wait for a while or not to do what Scarface said, but this gratitude was lingering.

The long sword in the air was still humming, and suddenly, at a certain moment, the long sword suddenly made a circle in the air, and flew straight to the courtyard wall next to it, and the small pavilion within the target courtyard wall with a piercing sound.

At the same time, Scarface tugged on the horse's reins, only to hear the neighing of the horse, and he was about to turn away with the carriage.

Perhaps the alley was too narrow, or the horse could not understand the eagerness of his master, so he turned around as quickly as he thought.

Everything that followed made everyone present panic.

Two arrows more than a meter long broke through the wall, shooting two irregular holes in the thick courtyard wall, and the two arrows were unabated, one of them penetrated the horse's abdomen at a lightning speed, and directly nailed to the opposite wall, submerging more than a foot deep.

The other arrow passed directly through Scarface's right arm, and the sound of bones shattering resounded throughout the rainy night, and half of Scarface's right arm was directly taken out, and it was nailed to the opposite wall along with the arrow.

"Ahh

Scarface let out an extremely dull sound of pain, his body was facing the carriage at this time, his eyes were staring directly at Xu Chen, and the blood spurting out of his arm splashed all over the carriage, and also splashed Xu Chen's face.

It turned out that the arrow just now was shot straight at Xu Chen's head, but Scarface, who reacted, directly pushed Xu Chen back into the carriage with his right hand, so his right arm became the final focus of the arrow.

The power of the bed crossbow can even shoot through the city walls, let alone an ordinary arm.

Through the two large holes in the wall, you can see dozens of heavily armed Imperial Guards standing within the courtyard wall, and behind them is a small pavilion.

There was a long sword stuck on a stone pillar in the small pavilion, which was the one that Scarface had used before, and at this time, Zhang Qinglian and Li Dutong in the pavilion were also shocked.

The two of them were looking at the long sword that Li Du held in the air at the same time, the sword had not yet been unsheathed, but the position of the tip of the sword, along with the scabbard, had been cut off a large piece, which was Scarface's masterpiece.

After a while, Zhang Qinglian, who had reacted, gasped and said, "Then let's start!"
