Chapter 242: Three
Walking on the slightly silent street, Ye Wen glanced up at the night sky in the distance, the tavern gradually faded away with the pace, disappearing into the darkness, the sky dome of the Huoluo stronghold was slightly dim, and there were few stars on it.
Ye Wen followed behind Jin Yuan, his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the young figure in front of him who was slightly larger than him, and then looked away and looked at the buildings along the road.
The style is not quite the same as the western part of Chiba Castle, and just from the eaves that are like flames, you can see the special style of Huoluo, as well as the taste of a certain general.
Perhaps because of the dominance of the army, coupled with the upper circle far away from Chiba City, Ye Wen found that although the size of this Huoluo was less than one-tenth of that of Xicheng District, it was even more prosperous, although it seemed to be going in a rather deformed direction.
"How far can the influence of the City Lord's Mansion be here......
With the insignificant starlight, Ye Wen walked slowly along the stone path under his feet, following Jin Yuan, perhaps the blowing of the night breeze made his drunken spirit retreat slightly, and suddenly remembered this question in his mind.
No supreme ruler will allow any subordinates to appear out of control, nor will they tolerate the excessive expansion of the power of their subordinates, but a stronghold like Huoluo, which stands proudly in the depths of the jungle, is like an independent kingdom, and it seems that there is no power to counterbalance the Fire General's faction......
But what does this have to do with him?
Ye Wen thought about it, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and suddenly felt that he was too nosy, and the thoughts of those big people in the upper echelons were not something that he could figure out for a small role like him now, he was born in a slum that was despised and had never accepted the favor of the City Lord's Mansion, even if he wanted to show his loyalty, he really couldn't talk about it.
Along the way, I passed through many streets, and the shops along the road were only closed, and it seemed that as we went deeper into the Northwest District, the number of people coming and going in the quiet night gradually decreased, and there were not too many soldiers on the street where the tavern was located, and this place was almost a rare place for people.
Jin Yuan, the leader in front, walked silently, as if he had come here alone, not as if he was leading Ye Wen to visit the surrounding area, and he did not issue a word to introduce the taboos and characteristics of this place, as a guide was obviously quite derelict in his duty.
Jin Yuan's footsteps stopped.
It's a fairly secluded street, not only is there no human presence, not even a complete building seems to be much, more of a pile of stone houses that seem to have been cut in two and the walls have collapsed.
Suddenly, Ye Wen's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he sensed something, he turned his head slightly to look at the side, only to see a figure approaching silently in the afterglow.
He turned his head to look to the other side, and sure enough, a second person came slowly, but the sound of walking became heavier and heavier, and the street under the silent night sky was like a noise, and it also showed a kind of arrogance, and he didn't care at all to reveal his traces.
Or, I am afraid that I have long expected that I will not be able to hide the target person, so I simply show up automatically, or it is possible that I have unwavering self-confidence and think that I can take the enemy's head even if there is a head-on conflict.
"Interesting. You know it's a trap, but you still follow it, is this self-confidence, or is it self-defeating?"
One of them, the sturdy long-faced man, raised his eyes and looked Ye Wen up and down, with an indifferent smile on his face, and said with a smile: "First time we met, my name is Wei Dongliu, although I have no grudge against you, but I acted on orders, and I had to come to take your life tonight." ”
Ye Wen scratched his head and sighed, but he didn't pay attention to the long-faced man who claimed to be Wei Dongliu, but instead looked at the young man in front of him, the leader named Jin Yuan, as if he was a puppet, had been standing in place since just now, neither the reaction that the conspiracy should have, nor the panicked expression, but stood there stiffly, like a corpse.
"You're curious?"
The other person, the short and thin, man in his forties, slowly walked out of the dark shadows, and when he saw Ye Wen's calm reaction, he was stunned at first, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "It is worthy of being a person who is faintly afraid of the young gang leader, even if he is in a desperate situation, he can still be calm as usual, and his face does not change. ”
Ignoring the short and thin man's appreciation, Ye Wen's eyes stared at the young man's back, and after a while, his pupils suddenly shrank, he turned his head to look at the short and thin man, frowned and asked, "Is this a puppet spell?"
"Oh? ”
There was a burst of surprise on the short and thin man's face, obviously he didn't expect that Ye Wen would be able to see through the young man's true body, and then the corners of his lips were raised, revealing a little smugness, but he said: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, it's really not worth mentioning, but it has a good effect when used to deceive the hairy boy." ”
Hearing this, Ye Wen snorted coldly, and after glancing at the puppet, he retracted his gaze without hesitation, and his voice was not warm: "The rumored puppet talisman is said to be almost lost due to too few cultivators, I didn't expect it to appear in front of me now, it seems that you are not a nameless, even if you report your name!"
"In the lower Tang Yueshan. ”
The short and thin man smiled slightly, snapped his fingers casually, and saw that not far away, a strange Dao power fluctuation suddenly burst out, instantly enveloping the humanoid puppet, with a swirl of light, the humanoid puppet suddenly turned into a piece of paper and floated in the air, and then quickly flew into his hand.
Seeing this scene, Ye Wen narrowed his eyes, glanced at Wei Dongliu, who had been silent since just now, and after a moment of silence, he said with a smile: "Wei Dongliu, Tang Yueshan, the two fierce generals of the Green Snake Gang, the master of the triple peak cultivation, has long admired the great name. ”
Listening to Ye Wen's insincere words, Tang Yueshan walked forward slowly, his eyes narrowed, he grinned with a smile, showed two rows of white teeth, and said: "The triple peak, naturally, is not in the eyes of Your Excellency, but although it is a little self-conscious, I still decided to come to offer ugliness." Brother Wei, you said yes, right?"
"Hmph! I'm here to kill people!"
Wei Dongliu snorted coldly, his left hand turned slightly, and suddenly flashed a white light rune, this light rune was like a firefly under the night, although it was slightly weak, it was so difficult to ignore.
Seeing the figures of these two Green Snake Gang masters slowly approaching, Ye Wen's eyes narrowed more and more, the intelligence from a few months ago did show that these two people were the triple peak, but since he was more than this now, and the others were not necessarily without an inch, the news that he had killed the members of the Senate should have spread out, but the other party still appeared confidently, just afraid ......
Ye Wen frowned, as if he didn't care about the approach of the two, and asked, "Don't you mind if I ask the last question?"
"Excuse me. ”
Tang Yueshan smiled, as if he didn't mind Ye Wen's question, showing an elegant demeanor, although the steps under his feet were still advancing.
Looking at the two people who were only ten steps away from him, Ye Wen stood on tiptoe slightly, his eyes flashed with a gleam, and said, "You are not afraid of violating the military regulations here?"
Tang Yueshan stopped and replied with a smile: "The Huoluo stronghold has military regulations, and it is indeed forbidden to kill and injure, except for ...... This place under your feet. ”
Ye Wen's gaze fell on Wei Dongliu's palm, and he said calmly, "I see. ”
The words just fell.
Suddenly-
Three people moved at the same time!
