After the imperial examinations, I grew up by farming

Chapter 4 Assassination
"Good fellows!"

Xu Zhuang cupped his fists at Wu Ya, a group of masked men in black, "It was a misunderstanding, we just happened to pass by, and I didn't recognize any of the four people inside, please let the hero make a way for us to leave."

As soon as Xu Zhuang finished speaking, there was a "bang", the tea shed collapsed, and four figures flew out.

"Just come!" The old man with a long whip blocked a sword stab, and shouted dissatisfiedly, "The clothes are the same, and the hair is the same, which one is it?"

"There's so much nonsense, just kill them all!" replied the leading masked killer.

Ning Yu rolled his eyes, pointed to one of the people wearing the veiled hat, and looked at the assassin leader who was speaking.

"These two people are very cunning, just looking for an opportunity to attack the old man and the others. If we hadn't reminded them in time, the old man and the others would have been assassinated. All good brothers, be careful when strangling the thief."

"Kill! Not one left!" The killer leader ignored Ning Yu's flattering approach, and issued the killing order with a cold face.

A hundred or so masked killers took the order, and rushed forward with long knives in their hands.

Before people approached, the hidden silver weapons were like rainstorm raindrops, shooting from all sides.

Xu Zhuang had sharp eyes and quick hands, grabbed Ning Yu's back collar with his left hand, kicked his foot into the air suddenly, then leaned sideways, inserted his right hand between Zhimanzhiyi's two heads, scooped it left and right, and the collars of the two maids also Caught in his hands.

With one left hand and two right hands, he borrowed strength back and forth between the tree trunks, jumped and landed under a tree ten meters away, narrowly avoiding the hidden weapon attack.

The hidden triangular-edged weapon hit the horse with dozens of holes, and the horse died instantly.

The leader of the assassins looked at Xu Zhuang, his eyes froze: he is still a master!

The masked killer tacitly split into two waves, beheading the two men wearing veiled hats, and the remaining [-] people came to kill Ning Yu and the others.

"Protect Young Master!" Xu Zhuang pulled out his dagger in a deep voice, his strong body blocked the front like a mountain.

Ning Yu leaned against the big tree, knowingly guarding both sides with one left and one right.

Zhiman drew out the dagger neatly, and jumped into a lunge with both legs, posing in a fighting stance.

Zhiyi's legs were trembling, and his hands trembling for a long time, he took out a piece of pancake, when the assassin slashed at him, he closed his eyes, screamed, and fell to the ground.

Xu Zhuang was so powerful, he grabbed the assassin's wrist with his left hand, folded it upwards, and broke it with a "click", raised and stabbed with his right hand, and the eight-inch long dagger pierced the assassin's neck, and the dagger was drawn back, bleeding profusely.

Xu Zhuang caught the assassin's long knife firmly.

With the weapon in his hand, Xu Zhuangruo had the help of a god, with the long knife in his hand, he danced like a swimming dragon, parrying the ensuing left and right flanking attacks.

Zhiman stood behind Xu Zhuang on the left, picked up a knife from the ground, seized the opportunity to fix the knife on the surviving assassin, and kicked it away to make enough room for Xu Zhuang to use it. Ning Yu took the opportunity to kill the stunned assassin. Zhiyi dragged him to the middle, and stood behind Xu Zhuang's right, occasionally making up a knife or two.

Xu Zhuang was unparalleled in bravery, but the opponent was not weak and had an advantage in numbers. In addition, there was no defense behind several people, and he almost succeeded in sneaking from behind trees several times.

After some contesting, Xu Zhuang gradually lost the upper hand, and he and Zhiman were both injured.

If this goes on, he will definitely die!

The horses at the scene were completely killed by the assassins, and there were at least 50 assassins alive, and they could not escape with their two legs.

Ning Yu had an idea, and shouted to the two plague gods: "Two masters, the other party has a lot of people, and no one can escape if this goes on. Come here, and we will fight the enemy together."

The two were surrounded by an old man, an old woman, an assassin leader and dozens of assassins, and they were also injured to varying degrees, and they struggled to defend. Hearing Ning Yu's proposal, they quickly glanced at the brave and fearless Xu Zhuang, and exchanged a look. Finally, look for an opportunity to leap over and fill the gap after climbing the tree.

Six people, Xu Zhuang and two men with veiled hats stood on the outer circle and each guarded one side, Ning Yu and Zhiman helped each other in the inner circle, knowing that she didn't dare to kill when she recovered, but she had a good eye and could always fight in a mess. Hidden darts shot from time to time were found in the game.

Fighting from evening to high moon.

The masked assassin died cleanly, the old man was also killed, the man with the hood fell down, and the standing one pierced the old woman's heart with a sword, and fell at Ning Yu's feet with a "boom".

The thick blood stained the night red, and Ning Yu, who was protected by the maidservant with his life, became the only one who was still standing.

There were corpses lying in front of her eyes, and it was only at this moment that she felt really scared, her legs softened and she slid down against the tree, her eyes turned black.

Seeing that he was about to faint, a voice suddenly appeared in his head: Can't sleep!Cut the weeds and eradicate the roots!
Ning Yu woke up with a jolt, and stretched out his hand to check Xu Zhuang's breath: still alive!

"Huh—" Ning Yu let out a long breath, and went to check on the rest of the people.

Knowing and knowing is also alive.

Ning Yu lifted the black veil from the face of one of the veiled men, looked through the moonlight, and suddenly stopped breathing.

Such a look!She, together with Xu Ningyu, has never seen a better-looking one in ancient or modern times.I have never seen it in real life, nor have I seen it on TV, billboards, or picture albums.

She lifted the hood of the other one, and saw that he was seven points similar to the previous one, and the three points of difference were all because he was more handsome and better-looking than the previous one.

Of the two veiled men, the better-looking one is dead, and the better-looking one is still alive.

Ning Yu took the sword of the dead one, walked towards an assassin, first stabbed the sword hard into the assassin's heart, and then cut through the assassin's carotid artery to make sure nothing would go wrong.

These assassins have seen the faces of their masters and servants and cannot stay.

After solving one, Ning Yu raised his sword and walked towards the second one, stabbing down with the sword, the assassin actually woke up from the pain, his scarlet eyes were particularly frightening, Ning Yu panicked, and made up two more swords.

Including the leader of the assassins, the old man selling tea and the old woman, there were 72 people in total, a small half of them hadn't died before, and Ning Yu sent them back to their hometown.

After the assassin was dead, Ning Yu raised his sword and walked towards the man in the veiled hat who was still alive and handsome.

"Because you blocked a knife for me, let you go." After thinking about it again and again, he still couldn't make a move.

Ning Yu stuffed the hilt of the sword back into the dead man's hand.

The four unconscious wounded are really embarrassing.

After thinking briefly, Ning Yu ran to the collapsed tea shed, dug a hole in the hay, dragged Zhiyi there, then dragged Zhiman there, and then dragged the better-looking man in the veiled hat, and then put the salute bag and the man Throw in his sword and cover it tightly with hay.

Then, they turned Xu Zhuang who couldn't be dragged no matter how much he could not be dragged, turned over, changed from supine to prone, smeared his face with bloody mud to make him look more like a dead person, and finally covered it up on the ground because of dragging people. out traces.

After finishing all this, it took almost four watch days.

Ning Yu ran back along the way he came, and ran for more than ten miles. From his memory, he found a hunter's house with a bullock cart but no watchdog. Go to the grass rope hanging at the gate of the cowshed, leave the money, and drive back with the cart.

When the sky is bright, return to the tea shed.

The dead veiled man's head was cut off and taken away, along with the corpses of the old man, the old woman and the leader of the assassins.

Another escape!
After rejoicing, Ning Yu tied Xu Zhuang into rice dumplings with straw ropes, borrowed the strength of the old scalper to transport him onto the cart, dragged the other three up, carried hay to cover it tightly, and put the old scalper on the cart again. Take a salute.

The man in the veiled hat didn't have a household post or a guide, so he would definitely not be able to enter the city gate.

Ning Yu thought for a while, and drove the ox cart back to the owner's house.
