Chapter 299

Seoul!

The sky is nearly dark, everything is silent outside the city, and the city is dotted with stars.

The prefect's mansion is still busy!
It takes some thought to continuously mobilize troops from various counties to defend the city, arrange them reasonably, and maximize their combat effectiveness.

Although all the strong and good generals have left on missions, there is still Xu Chu, a strong general in the city, who can somewhat share some affairs and enhance the morale and confidence of the soldiers and civilians.

"Report! My lord, someone set fire to the south of the city and caused chaos!"

Someone hurried in to report.

Cheng Yu raised his head, a flash of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and immediately ordered one person to command the troops to fight to the south of the city.

Not long after leaving, someone came to report:
"Report! My lord, someone set fire to the east of the city!"

Cheng Yu didn't think much about it and sent another man to lead the troops to the east of the city.

Then another person came to report: "Report! Your Excellency, someone set fire to the west of the city to cause chaos!"

This time, one of the generals came out to ask for an attack, and Cheng Yu nodded in agreement.

As soon as the general left, someone came to report: "Report! Your Excellency, someone set fire to the north of the city to cause chaos!"

"Oh! It's all ready this time. Is the storm coming? The big show is finally on the stage..." Cheng Yu couldn't help but sneer a little, but looking around, it seemed that almost everyone who could fight and lead the army had gone out, so he had no choice but to say to Xu Chu:
"Zhongkang, you bring your troops to quell the chaos. You don't need to show mercy in critical times, just kill them!"

"Understood Mr. Zhongde!"

Although Cheng Yu is the prefect of Huanghai now, Xu Chu and others still like to call him Mr. to show their closeness.

In fact, all the military generals prefer to be called Donglai's civilian officials rather than their official titles.

Xu Chu led his troops to the north of the city to fight the fire.

The prefect's mansion suddenly became much empty. Not only did there not one general, but there were only more than 100 soldiers guarding it.

Soon there was a shout of killing in the backyard, followed by the sound of weapons colliding.

When Cheng Yu heard that he was about to walk out of the hall, ten black shadows came to the front of the hall. These ten people were all good fighters, and their martial arts skills were extremely high. The soldiers guarding Cheng Yu fought desperately, but none of them were opponents.

"Who are you, who wants to assassinate this mansion, isn't it a bit despicable!" Cheng Yu snarled and asked.

The ten men in black glanced at each other, but did not answer, but rushed forward with their weapons brandished.

Cheng Yu and all the soldiers retreated together and let out the hall door.

The ten black-clothed men were overjoyed. They thought they would fight in front of the hall for a while, but they didn't expect the soldiers protecting Cheng Yu to fight so timidly. It was easier to kill Cheng Yu like this.

But just when the four fastest people jumped in, two people jumped out from both sides of the door. The two swords were faster and they swung twice.

Only four puffs were heard.

The bodies of the four men in black stopped abruptly, and then fell to the ground.

This scene frightened the six people behind, and the six people backed away.

"who are you?"

The six men in black looked at the two who suddenly drew their swords, and even asked.

As for the two swordsmen, one is overweight and about thirty years old.

One is thin and thin, aged between sixteen and seventeen.

One grown and one young, one fat and one thin, the two of them walked out slowly, and the young boy sneered, "Do you think I will tell you?"

"kill!"

The six men in black gave a loud shout and rushed towards the two of them.

Just now it was the other party's surprise attack that killed his accomplice. Now there are six of them, and they still can't believe that they can't beat the other two.

But as soon as they fought, they felt the pressure.

One fat and one thin, the sword skills are extremely exquisite, and the body skills are even more light and fast.

That's right, it's lightness, even that fat man's agility is twice as high as theirs, and his swordsmanship is even more cunning and tricky.

Eight people and eight swords complement each other, and the sound of gold is endless.

Swim back and forth for ten breaths.

Four puffs.

The two men in black covered their lower ribs, bleeding profusely.

Two more fell limply.

"go!"

Ideas are a bit tricky.

Out of ten people, six were dead and two were injured, so they were definitely no match for the opponent.

It is the characteristic of an assassin to run away immediately if one blow fails.

"I want to leave! It's late!"

The fat and thin kicked their feet, and the figure chased like lightning. The two injured people swung their swords back to try to delay the pursuit of the two, and they immediately made two puffs, and both fell to the ground.

Those two who were not injured, it was because of their accomplices that they borrowed something to jump up the wall along the courtyard wall, turned over and left the prefect's mansion.

It's just that the two of them were lucky enough to escape when they saw countless torches appearing on both sides of the street, and groups of Han troops appeared.

The Han army in the front held bows and crossbows in their hands, and they were all facing them.

"It's too weak, it's so boring. I thought there would be some kind of expert, but it turned out to be a few cats and dogs!" The sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy yawned and complained after solving the sneak attack.

"Real masters have martial arts virtues, and they will not do such low-level things, and they will not stand on the side of other races against their own family!" There are real heroes in the world, how can they be so easily bought by the Yuan family? The fat man shook his head and explained.

Seeing that the men in black had been dealt with, Cheng Yu walked out of the hall and said to the fat man and the thin man, "Thank you Zijin and Zhiquan, without you we couldn't have dealt with these assassins so quickly!"

"My lord, you are being polite. It is our duty to protect you." The fat man said modestly in return.

If you want to say who the fat and the thin are, then there is a bit of background.

Cough!

Shi A is the fat one!
The thin one is Xu Ying!
That's right, it's Shi A, Wang Yue's apprentice!

And this Xu Ying is also Wang Yue's apprentice, a young apprentice who has only been accepted in recent years, and his aptitude and talent are comparable to Shi A's.

Wang Yue voted for Donglai, and naturally Luoyang Yingxionglou and his apprentices also brought over to serve Xu Ding together.

So this time when crossing the sea, Xu Ding also sent many people from the Hero Tower to secretly protect everyone.

The other four resourceful people either have martial arts themselves, or are protected by a large army in the army, and there are generals to follow.

Only Cheng Yu was the most vulnerable, so he was secretly protected by two masters at the same time.

The two lived in secluded places, especially since Shi A still used fake names to haunt them, so it was normal for these assassins and Yuan's disciples not to know about them.

The door of the mansion opened, and two men in black were escorted in by the sergeant.

"Report to the lord, two thieves have been captured, please send them down!" The general who led the army came in to report.

Cheng Yu nodded slightly and approached.

Under the reflection of the big torch, the faces of the two assassins can be seen at a glance.

"Huh! It's actually a woman!" Xu Ying couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw the two assassins who had been captured.

Shi A was also a little surprised.

At this time, Cheng Yu finished looking at the two of them, and then asked: "You two should be siblings!"

A trace of panic flashed in the woman's eyes, and she turned her face to the side.

The captured man was about eighteen or nineteen years old, so he was extremely young.

After all, most of the assassins are older. Only such people have a stable temperament, and they have concerns, and they will not betray their clients.

Seeing Cheng Yu cast his gaze over, the man took the initiative to greet him: "Kill me, I am willing to tell you all the news you want to know, but you have to let her go!"

"Shut up Liuyun! If you dare to betray young master, I will tear your mouth to pieces." The woman turned her face and stared at him, as if she wanted to bite the boy to death.

The young man blushed and said, "Do you think Yuan really likes you? Sister, don't be stupid, he's just using you, he just wants you to work for him!"

"No! No, the young master promised me that he would take me as a concubine. He said it, he said it..."

"Concubine...haha! What's the use of a concubine! Ah! What's the use of a concubine? What's the difference between a concubine and a pig or a dog!" The young man raised his head to the sky and let out a long howl, and tears gradually flowed down. It is said that men do not cry lightly, but today this young man flowed.

But this made Cheng Yu and the others a little confused.

what's the situation!
What are these two siblings doing?
The woman was silent, lowered her head and pursed her lips, clenched her teeth tightly, and said after a long time: "Liuyun, the Yuan family is four generations and three princes, a famous family, even if you are a concubine, it is enough for us to climb high. I believe sister, Mr. Yuan will definitely Will help us, definitely will, the Yuan family is the fourth generation and third father, a famous family, the number one in the world..."

The woman was still about to say something, but Xu Ying received Cheng Yu's gaze, and as soon as she floated behind her, she slashed down with a knife, and the woman fainted and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing, don't kill my sister, don't..." the girl roared when her sister was knocked unconscious.

Cheng Yu squatted and said: "I want to know everything you know, I can promise not to kill her, how about it?"

The young man was greatly moved, but he hesitated a bit. Looking at the fallen woman, he finally took a deep breath and said, "Okay! I'll tell you everything..."

Cheng Yu sat up and stood up, waved all the soldiers back, took the female assassin down and locked him up, then Shi A and Xu Ying carried the tied boy into the hall.

"Okay! Now you can talk, it's best to start with your life experience." Cheng Yu sat on the grand master's chair and looked at the boy.

The young man said: "My name is Mu Feng Liuyun, and my sister's name is Mu Feng Yangshui. Our parents were killed by corrupt officials of the imperial court when we were young, and my sister and I wandered around... Finally, my sister said that she wanted to help us." If you want to avenge your parents, if you want to get ahead, if you want to survive in this troubled world, if you want to be like those corrupt officials, you must have power and influence, so we joined the Yuan family..."

Then Mu Feng Liuyun told the situation of his siblings one by one.

In short, they are a pair of poor siblings, the older sister is willing to be Yuan Yin's concubine in order to get ahead of her younger brother, in exchange for the prosperity and wealth and the support of the Yuan family's power!

Yuan Yin saw that Mu Feng Yangshui was pretty, so he recruited her, and promised to take him as a concubine after she successfully killed Cheng Yu and broke through Seoul, and promised to make her a black glove with a hundred or so men, who would specialize in the future. Do some dirty work behind the scenes for him.

I don't know if it's because she's afraid that this woman's mission will fail and fall into the hands of Cheng Yu and others, and become a threat, so she hasn't had any skin-to-skin relationship with Mu Fengyangshui.

This is also the reason why Mu Feng Liuyun doesn't trust Yuan Yin.

He once tried to stop his sister, but was unsuccessful, so he joined the action.

That's why he was willing to confess everything immediately after being caught.

Mu Feng Yangshui wanted to work for the Yuan family, but Mu Feng Liuyun didn't.

After listening, Cheng Yu finally understood the basics of the matter.

This is still a pair of contradictory siblings!

"According to what you mean, once you succeed, the army outside the city will attack the city. Now a lot of troops have gathered outside the city."

"Yes, my lord, the one who contacted us is a man named Yuan Chun. This Yuan Chun is also a child of the Yuan family. He has neither light nor important status, but this guy is extremely arrogant and rude." Mu Feng Liuyun said truthfully.

Cheng Yu thought for a while and said, "Let me just believe you once. Although you confessed truthfully, now is an extraordinary period. I will still lock up your brother and sister. When the war in Huanghe County is over, if it is confirmed What you said is true, I can let you brothers and sisters go."

"Thank you, sir!" Mu Feng Liuyun was overjoyed upon hearing this.

As long as you don't kill now, there is hope of survival.

Mu Feng Liuyun was taken down and imprisoned, Cheng Yu thought for a while, and then said to Shi A and Xu Ying: "You two, you are skilled in martial arts, I wonder if you can go out of the city for a while, if there are enemy troops outside, you will definitely meet them." There are clues revealed."

"My lord, then your safety!" Shi A reminded with some concern.

Cheng Yu said: "It's okay, Zhongkang Yijing is on his way back to the mansion, there are still enemies lurking in the city, but I'm afraid I won't dare to show up tonight."

Then Shi A said: "Okay, since the lord has sent me, then the two of us will go out of the city to check!"

Not long after the two left, Xu Chu came back to report that the rebellion and fire in the southeast and northwest cities were under control.

Killing more than [-] people tonight is considered a small gain.

"That's good, now we basically don't have to worry about troubles in the city!" With [-] people taking the lead, almost all the lurking dark men of the Yuan family were taken down, so Cheng Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as there are no internal problems, he will not be afraid no matter how many enemy troops besiege the city.
