Chapter Forty-Three: Assassination in the Night
The night is in the sky, the stars are like water, the starlight shines in the forest along the gap between the trees, the breeze blows, and the starlight shines like a firefly in summer, trembling slightly, trembling slightly, very smart......
Because he was afraid of revealing his hiding place, Lin Sheng didn't dare to light a fire but lay on the top of the tree, standing obliquely by the wind, feeling the little bit of star cold unique to early winter, which was very pleasant, and he rubbed his shoulders that were sore from overwork during the day. From time to time, he looked at the bright lights in the distance, that was where the mercenary group, one of the three large mercenary groups that captured him, rested, and now several main leaders of the mercenary group were arguing excitedly, and the content of the quarrel was undoubtedly about the losses caused to them by Lin Sheng's attack and killing during the day today.
Lin Sheng smiled knowingly when he heard this noisy voice from afar, he just wanted them to disrupt their own formation, preserve each other's strength, and not fight hard with him, so that he could have a chance to break through each other!
Today's Lin Sheng's attack can be described as a brilliant result, he is constantly shuttling through the forest, and he has already killed nearly a quarter of the mercenaries, if he still maintains this state in the future, then in three or five days at most, he can wipe out all the mercenaries hired by the Wang family this time, when the time comes, hehe......
Lin Sheng smiled evilly, he suddenly felt that he had changed a lot, since the master came out of the old man, he was constantly changing, he used to be a soft-hearted son of a family, gentle and polite, but now he is forced to be cold-blooded and murderous without blinking an eye by the burden of survival.
"Maybe this is growth!" Lin Sheng sighed with feeling.
"I don't know what happened to the two sisters and brothers of the Duan family, will they worry about me now?" Lin Sheng looked in the direction of Cangshan City and thought that for Duan Kong, a young man who had no scheming, he liked it in his heart, maybe he regarded Duan Kong as his previous incarnation, kind, lively, and unscheming......
It's a bit complicated for Duan Xin, he doesn't understand what it is, he sometimes wonders if he likes this cute little princess, but he doesn't want to admit it.
Maybe it's because Xue'er has always been in his heart, forget it, don't think about it for the time being if you can't figure it out, this kind of thing is still talking about it when you have your life to escape.
Lin Sheng shook his head and stopped thinking about this question.
Looking at the brightly lit mercenary camp in the distance, Lin Sheng suddenly had an urge to kill them by surprise, now they were all busy searching for themselves all day, and now they must be extremely tired, if they go to kill now, the results will definitely be expensive.
That's right! Lin Sheng thought of this, and smiled evilly again, indeed, if he really succeeded in attacking and killing today, then it could really make his safety more guaranteed.
Now that he had made up his mind, Lin Sheng said he would do it, only to see him holding the Remnant Snow Sword in his hand, and rushing towards the brightly lit mercenary camp with strange steps.
"They're pretty careful, it's not like they haven't sent a single outpost. Lin Sheng looked at it from a distance, and sensed a few figures on the uncle outside the camp.
"But alas, these sentries are too rubbish!" Lin Sheng cautiously approached the big tree where the sentry was. After a few moments, the four dark sentinels were quietly resolved, and they were about to leave, but they accidentally glanced at a hammock hanging from a tree.
"You're really going to enjoy it. Lin Sheng said in his heart, and at the same time untied the ropes on both sides of the hammock and prepared to put it into the storage space.
"Hmm, that's not right!" Lin Sheng touched this hammock and suddenly became alert, no, this hammock is actually silk, how can a small mercenary afford a silk hammock!
Although seven or eight thousand is just a piece of cake for Lin Sheng, it is not a small amount for a mercenary who runs the rivers and lakes.
The only thing that can be explained is that this hammock is not the mercenaries at all, but the three mercenary leaders. In other words, at least one of the regimental commanders is also a secret sentry tonight! I just don't know where he went, did he know that he was here and deliberately hiding, or was something delayed and he wasn't here now?
This is the problem that Lin Sheng is considering at present, if it is the former, then Lin Sheng should have to run away now, otherwise, so many mercenaries will rush up, then he will be able to explain here. However, if it is the latter, it will undoubtedly be a rare opportunity for Lin Sheng, if this regiment leader is really delayed, then Lin Sheng is now ambushing here to sneak attack, not to mention killing him like the elder of the royal family, then at least he can seriously injure him.
This is really an exciting opportunity, but the risk is also very high, if the elder is deliberately hiding, then he is very likely to be in it today.
What to do?
Lin Sheng didn't want to take the risk, but he was really reluctant to take such a rare opportunity, and he was a strong man in the Martial Spirit Period! If he was successfully killed or injured, then he would have a better chance of facing the remaining few strong men in the Martial Spirit Stage alone in the future!
"Fight!" The two simple words had completely indicated Lin Sheng's attitude at this time, he was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity, he was ready to ambush here and wait for the regiment leader to come.
Lin Sheng looked around and found that this was really a good place for Tibetans, and the good idea was born specifically for him to hide, but Lin Sheng did not use this hidden place to hide, but pulled off the clothes of a secret sentry and changed it, he just wanted to pretend to be a member of this secret sentry to further reduce the vigilance of the regiment leader.
Lin Sheng tied the silk hammock to the branches of the big tree again, and lay on it comfortably, looking around from time to time, it was really the same as the mercenary who secretly enjoyed the head of the group.
Suddenly, Lin Sheng keenly noticed a figure coming from far and near, Lin Sheng suppressed the excitement in his heart and did not make any changes, because with the cultivation of the mercenary who had been killed by Lin Sheng, he could not find the leader of the rushing group, so he now had to pretend that he had not found it at all and waited for the mercenary leader.
The head of the regiment fell silently behind Lin Sheng, although Lin Sheng knew, but he pretended not to find anything at all, lying comfortably in the hammock and shaking.
The regiment leader didn't seem to be annoyed by his subordinates lying on his bed, on the contrary, he looked at Lin Sheng with a smile, as if he was amused.
"Ahem" Finally, the head of the regiment spoke, Lin Sheng hurriedly rolled down from the hammock and pretended to be sincerely afraid, and called the head of the regiment.
Hearing Lin Sheng call him the head of the regiment, he seemed to feel very strange, Lin Sheng hurriedly blamed himself for talking too much, he was preconceived, thinking that he was the head of the regiment, but now it seems that this martial artist of the martial spirit period is not the head of the regiment!
Lin Sheng was already secretly ready to fight, once this person became suspicious, then he had to fight quickly, whether he succeeded or not, he had to run away first.
However, this man's next words made Lin Sheng's heart calm again.
"Didn't I tell you? Usually you have to call me the deputy head of the regiment, in case the head of the regiment hears it, it will not be good. Although the man said it in a reproachful tone, his face was full of enjoyment.
And looking at his appearance, I am afraid that he has coveted the position of head of the regiment for a long time, and he has quite the idea of replacing him. Lin Sheng secretly said in his heart that it was dangerous, and at the same time, he immediately complimented:
"I'm not used to it, in my heart you are our leader. ”
"Hehe, as long as you kid can talk!Don't worry, follow me, I won't let you suffer!"
"Captain Xie, in the future, my subordinates will be loyal to you!"
"Okay! By the way, be careful tonight, then Wang Lin is very likely to come to sneak attack, you must be more careful. ”
"Commander Xie cares! His subordinates understand! The other brothers are now guarding outside carefully, let their subordinates give you a beating on the back at this time!" Lin Sheng said with a flattering face.
"Well, don't say it, I'm really tired after a hard day!" As he spoke, he asked Lin Sheng to go behind him and beat him on the back.
What a chance! Lin Sheng was overjoyed and quickly walked behind the deputy head of the regiment.
"You sent your head to the door this time, but I can't blame you. Lin Sheng said in his heart. He is now almost ninety percent sure that he will be able to successfully kill this deputy head of the Martial Spirit Period!
Lin Sheng stood behind him and carefully took out the remnant snow, just now for convenience, he did not sacrifice the sword into his body, but directly wore it on his waist, anyway, those dark sentinels were also dressed like this, so Lin Sheng didn't have to worry about being recognized.
Lin Sheng held the remnant snow, and saw that the remnant snow was about to pass over the neck of the deputy regiment leader, when an accident happened......
"Be careful!" a loud yelled and suddenly remembered.
The deputy head of the regiment was worthy of being a martial spirit-level and experienced powerhouse, and his reaction was not unfast, only to see him leap forward, and he could avoid Lin Sheng's mortal sword by avoiding his neck. Lin Sheng angrily swung out a sword qi and slashed in the direction of the roar just now, the bright sword light shone like a meteor, instantly illuminating this originally dark land, the sword light slashed across a big tree in front of him, the big tree fell to the ground in response, and a black shadow slowly fell from the tree.
Another strong man in the martial spirit period!
Lin Sheng glanced at the black shadow in front of him, and he could clearly sense that the strong true qi in the other party's body was not weaker than himself, and maybe it was even stronger than himself.
But now Lin Sheng is not afraid of him, because although the deputy head of the regiment just now escaped his life, he also received a sword in his back, and it seems that it will not play a role in the entire battle situation, and now it is still one-on-one.
It's just that Lin Sheng was worried that the sound of their fight would attract the mercenaries in the camp, if that was the case, it would be troublesome......
