Upon hearing this, Yingren hurriedly asked, "Have you seen him before? Who is he?"

Chu Huan suddenly understood, and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness has seen this assassin before, just last night."

"Last night?" Ying Ren frowned.

Chu Huan had already said: "Your Highness, when we stayed at the inn last night, a group of people suddenly came to make trouble. Do you still remember the young master in the tiger-striped brocade suit?"

Yingren lost his voice: "Could it be... Could it be that the assassin just now was that person?"

Feng Wuma said seriously: "Your Highness, it is indeed that person. The muscles on his face are necrotic. Although the face is covered with blood, the small one can still be recognized."

Chu Huan said: "Last night they made trouble at the inn, it seems that they intend to test our reality."

"Letting our people compete with them is just to see how capable we are." Feng Wuma said solemnly: "If it's too bad, they won't be so timid."

Yingren frowned and said, "Who are they? Why did they want to assassinate the king? Why didn't they do it at the inn last night, but did it here?"

"After all, it's not easy to do anything in the town." Chu Huan said, "Besides, General Yi estimated that they might not have enough manpower at that time." After a pause, he said doubtfully, "But General, there is one thing he can't figure out."

Feng Wuma had already understood, and asked: "You mean why do they know our whereabouts?"

Chu Huan nodded.

Last night, Mr. Huwen took a group of people to the inn to find out the truth, and he had made preparations in Zhongyi Village in advance. There is no doubt that Mr. Huwen knew the whereabouts of Yingren and his party very well. Before the entourage revealed the destination, Mr. Huwen and his group knew Yingren's destination long ago.

This is of course an extremely weird thing.

Of course Yingren is not stupid, and naturally understands the key points.

He was naturally very sure that he was keeping his mouth shut, and the news was definitely not leaked from his side, even Sun Desheng and Yingren, the most trusted eunuchs around him, did not disclose the news in advance.

He is a secret letter from the prince of the street, and he came to Zhongyi Village to pick up something. If the news did not leak from his side, could it be that Mr. Huwen got the news from the prince of Jingzhong?

Yingren's heart sank.

While he hesitated, he suddenly heard someone shouting, "What is this?"

"cigarette?"

"Where is the smoke coming from?"

Ying Ren looked up, but saw a puff of smoke coming from the left side of the courtyard wall. Under the light of the fire, the smoke turned out to be purple, which was very strange. The purple smoke quickly floated into the courtyard under the blowing of the night wind, and the smoke was lingering.

The big knives in the hands of the two guards that I saw suddenly fell to the ground at the same time, and then I saw the two of them grabbed my throat suddenly, with pain on their faces.

"Not good." Chu Huan lost his voice: "The smoke is poisonous, everyone be careful, don't inhale the poisonous fog."

The enemy is really cunning, ghosts and monsters come out endlessly, and the red snake can't be effective, but this time they use the poisonous mist, which shows that the opponent's advance is also inevitable, and Yingren must be put to death. give up.

Although Mr. Huwen showed up once and then retreated, everyone still had no idea about the enemy's situation, neither the number nor the plan of the enemy.

No one knows how many tricks the other party has to use.

The purple smoke was lingering, and everyone heard Chu Huan's order, and they quickly cut off their skirts with a blade, covered their nose and mouth, and prevented Ziyan from entering their bodies.

"Tu Tu Tu!"

A sharp voice sounded, and then several screams were heard in succession, and someone had already shouted: "It's a crossbow arrow, they are firing a crossbow arrow, everyone be careful."

"There is someone on the wall!"

Chu Huan had already covered his mouth and nose, and at a glance, he saw several shadows appearing on the left wall. It was they who fired the crossbow arrows on the wall, and two or three people had already fallen to the ground after being hit by the crossbow arrows.

Moreover, after those people fell to the ground, they only twitched twice, and then they didn't move. Chu Huan knew that not only did the other party have a crossbow arrow in his hand, but the crossbow arrow must have a blood-sealed throat poison.

Without further ado, Chu Huan took the bow and arrow from a guard next to him, bent the bow and set the arrow, everything was done in one go, without the slightest sloppiness, bent the bow and shot the arrow, the arrow was like lightning, and with a "pop", it hit the target. A person on the top of the wall hit the heart, the person let out a muffled grunt, and fell headlong from the top of the wall.

Chu Huan didn't stop, but Feng Wuma also reacted quickly at this time, and also took the bow and arrow. The two shot several arrows, and there were several screams on the wall, but they also shot several people on the other side.

The other guards were also well-trained. The enemy had crossbows and arrows, but most of the guards were equipped with bows and arrows. Surrounded by purple smoke, arrows shot at the wall one after another. The opponent was obviously afraid, and soon disappeared from the wall.

It's just that the purple smoke is getting thicker and thicker, gradually covering the courtyard, Chu Huan has already said to Yingren: "Your Highness, the poisonous smoke is dangerous, and I hope His Highness will allow everyone to enter the house for shelter."

Yingren had already shouted: "Everyone go inside, all go inside!"

Everyone surrounded Yingren and went into the house, and the Shenyiwei who was guarding Cai Shisan and Scar Man also pushed them into the house. After entering the house, everyone immediately closed the doors and windows tightly to prevent the poisonous mist from invading. Under the command of Feng Wuma's gestures, he quickly guarded the doors and windows everywhere.

Yingren entered the house, and then pulled away the brocade cloth covering his nose. His face was extremely angry and frightened, and he said, "What should we do? We must be surrounded. There is no one around here for more than ten miles. No one will come to the rescue."

At this time, everyone's expressions were extremely serious, knowing that they had encountered a real strong enemy, and this group of strong enemies had a variety of tricks and used them to the extreme.

Although there might be a turning point if they can last until dawn, it is still very early at this moment, and judging from the current momentum of the opponent's advance, it is difficult to survive until tomorrow morning.

Feng Wuma counted the number of people, his face darkened, apart from Ying Ren, there were originally 24 guards even on Chu Huan, but now there are only 16 guards left.

Although the four soldiers of the Twelve Guards outside the village failed to see the corpse, there was no miracle. They were already dead. One was bitten to death by the Chilian Snake, and three of them were shot to death by the poisonous arrows that came suddenly. After a while, eight elite guards had already been killed.

Wang Han walked up to Chu Huan and said softly, "My lord, we lost two brothers." His expression looked very sad.

With a heavy heart, Chu Huan nodded slightly.

Cai Shisan's eyes were fixed on Yingren from the beginning to the end. Seeing that Yingren was restless, he said again after a long silence: "Your Highness, here... can't stay here!"

Yingren heard the voice, turned his head away, and saw Cai Shisan, and then remembered that this person existed, and roared furiously: "Cai Shisan, you...you are a rebel. Earlier you persuaded me to Stay here, but let me leave at this time, what is your intention? The gang of chaotic parties have tried their best to force me to leave this courtyard, so that they can take advantage of the chaos to attack me, how can I let you Did they succeed?"

Cai Shisan smiled wryly and said: "I just didn't expect that this group of people would be so omnipotent. I thought that with the elite guards under His Highness, I could last until tomorrow, but now it seems that the other party will never let us go." Your Highness will wait till tomorrow."

"You know them naturally." Ying Ren sneered, "You are their accomplice, but don't worry, even if something happens to me, I won't let you live."

Cai Shisan sighed: "His Royal Highness thinks that this is the difference between life and death?"

Yingren just sneered, his eyes like knives.

Chu Huan looked at Cai Shisan for a while, and finally asked, "Don't you know all this?"

Cai Shisan shook his head and said, "I know they have an ambush, but I don't know what method they will use."

"This king knows that you are their accomplice." Ying Renteng stood up and pointed to Cai Shisan: "If you are not their accomplice, how would you know that they have an ambush? If you are really loyal to this king, Why didn't you notify us beforehand?"

Cai Shisan stared at Yingren, and said calmly: "Your Highness, the moment you came to Zhongyi Village, you were already in an ambush. Even if you really tell me, this fact cannot be changed."

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily the case. If you had told us earlier, we would have been able to take precautions earlier, but you didn't say a word, and you asked His Highness to stay here for the night... Why didn't you tell us in advance? What else do you have? Didn't tell us what was hidden?"

Cai Shisan immediately showed a strange expression, as if he was very sad, but also in pain. It was not physical pain, but inner pain. His slack facial muscles were twitching, and his old body seemed to be Very pitiful.

Yingren nodded and said: "Chu Huan is right. You must have something wrong in your heart, so you deliberately concealed it beforehand. You kept me in the village because you wanted me to be surrounded by them."

"That's not the case." Cai Shisan said painfully: "Your Highness, I belong to you... Hey, even if I die a thousand times, I won't hurt you. I keep you only because I know that they This group of people are good at attacking at night. Once His Highness leaves Zhuangzi, there will be a wilderness for more than ten miles around, and it will be rough and difficult to walk. There is no road. You are completely unfamiliar with the terrain here, but they are very clear about the situation here... If they stay in the manor, they will be afraid of His Highness, but once they leave the Zhuangzi, although His Highness's subordinates are all elite guards, they will not be able to keep His Highness safe."

Yingren sneered and said, "What you said sounds nice. Now that it's done like this, do you dare to say that it's for the sake of this king? Who are the people you're talking about? This king wants to know now, who is like this?" You are so treacherous, how dare you lay a trap to murder this king?"

Cai Shisan shook his head and said, "I...don't know their identities, what I know about them is...too little...!"

Everyone frowned.

What Cai Shisan said just now made everyone think that he knew the enemy very well, but they didn't expect that he claimed to know very little about them. His words seemed to be full of loopholes, and everyone didn't believe them.

With a "choke", Ying Ren drew out his knife, pointed the blade at Cai Shisan, and said sharply, "Are you teasing me?"

But the man with the scar suddenly said: "Your Highness, the owner of the villa has no intention of harming you. He just wants to do his best to protect you, and he too...he can't help himself...!"

"Stop talking." Cai Shisan stopped, and said with a wry smile, "Your Highness, whether you believe me or not, I just beg you to quickly discuss how to break out of the siege. I can't die right now. After your Highness is safe, I will die but you will not die." Rest in peace."

Yingren smiled disdainfully and said, "Keep my king safe? Just relying on you, can you keep my king safe?"

Chu Huan looked at Cai Shisan's expression and his eyes, but felt that Cai Shisan's words seemed full of loopholes, but what he said seemed to be very sincere.

Looking at a person's authenticity, looking into his eyes, what Chu Huan saw in Cai Shisan's eyes was sincerity and concern. The concern was obviously because of Yingren.
