I become a sage by eating books

68 Assassination 2
At this moment, another flying arrow quickly shot towards the carriage of two people, but it was blocked by Zhou Changying's sword. "Master, get out of the car, I will cover you."

Under the cover of Zhou Changying, the two jumped out of the carriage.At this time, a person shouted: "The goal is there, let's go together!"

In an instant, more than 20 masked men rushed from all directions to the two people's positions, frightening the people present and panicking, and the scene was chaotic for a while.

Xiao Renhuai used the folding fan in his hand to protect Ning An behind his back.It was only then that Ning An discovered that Xiao Renhuai's folding fan was actually a good weapon. Could it be that he always carried it with him before?

Seeing that the enemy was about to approach, Ning An shouted to Xiao Renhuai: "Brother Xiao, leave me alone and face the enemy with peace of mind!"

Xiao Renhuai glanced at Ning An, seeing that his gaze was firm and fearless, he felt relieved.Brother Ning was right, going on like this is not an option, there are too many enemies, he can't fully use his fists and feet with Ning An, and it is difficult for Zhou Changying alone to deal with so many enemies.

"Okay, you protect yourself!"

Xiao Renhuai jumped into the battle, the man in black probably didn't expect that the young master of the Xiao family could actually know kung fu.At this time, a masked man said: "The news is wrong, grab the one in white first."

When the masked man gave an order, several people rushed towards Ning An.

"Master, be careful!"

"Brother Ning, make up your mind!"

With red eyes, Xiao Renhuai shouted at the same time as Zhou Changying.Damn thief, if he has the ability to come after him, what kind of ability is it to catch a scholar who is powerless.

Seeing a few masked men approaching Ning An, Ning An tightly held the anti-wolf spray in his hand.Ning An never thought that he would use this thing again so quickly.

Seeing the enemy getting closer, Ning An yelled: "Don't come over, I will release the poison gas if you come over."

A few masked people were taken aback, no one used poison to speak out, I'm afraid it's just a bluff, this kid must not have poisonous gas.

Several people approached Ning An slowly, and one of them said, "Isn't it going to release the poisonous gas? You should release it! Hehe, I'm afraid you don't have it."

The masked man got closer and closer, seeing that Ning An kept backing away and did not inject poison at all, he became more and more certain of his guess. "Everyone go together."

Several people approached at the same time, and when they were less than one step away from Ning An, Ning An took out the spray in his hand and sprayed them vigorously.

"Ah, my eyes!" Several masked men shouted at the same time.At this time, Zhou Changying also rushed to Ning An's side, and the silver light aimed at the necks of several people, and they fell to the ground at the same time.

Seeing that his companion missed his hand, the masked man flocked towards Xiao Renhuai and Ning An even more frantically. At the moment of lightning and thunder, several guards descended from the sky. Ning An knew that they should be the guards of Xiao Mansion.

The guards of the Xiao Mansion are all good fighters with one against ten, with their participation, the situation quickly reversed, and most of the masked people were killed or injured in a short while.

"Let's retreat!" The masked leader shouted at his companions seeing that the situation was wrong.

"I want to leave, but it's too late." Xiao Renhuai's eyes were red, and his eyes were full of killing intent.

He came to their Xiao family's territory and dared to assassinate the young master of the Xiao family. How could he let them escape easily? If word got out, how could their Xiao family be in the first family.

At this moment, countless government soldiers emerged from the entire main street, and even the attic was full of archers.Ning An was startled, the Xiao family deserved to be the number one family, and after such a short period of effort, they were able to gather so many soldiers quietly, which shows the profound heritage of the Xiao family.

"Take them!"

When Xiao Renhuai gave an order, the officers and soldiers rushed forward, and all the masked men were captured in an instant.

Back at the Xiao Mansion, Chu Qi and Qin Fei greeted them. Qin Fei took the two of them to look at him and said, "Are you all right? I heard that you were assassinated in the main street, and you were not injured, right?"

Ning An looked at Xiao Renhuai, who was still angry, and then at Chu Qi and Qin Fei, who looked worried, and said, "It's okay, don't worry!"

"It's fine, it's fine. Do you know who did it?" Chu Qi asked.

Ning An shook his head!Those people seemed to be targeting Xiao Renhuai on the surface, but from the analysis of their dialogue, it seemed that the situation was more than that.Because he clearly heard someone say "grab the one in white first", that is to say, both he and Xiao Renhuai are the other party's target.

Who on earth is it?
After hearing Chu Qi's words, Xiao Renhuai's face was as cold as ice. He slapped the table and said coldly: "No matter who it is, I will definitely make him pay the price."

Xiao Renhuai's words made Qin Fei shiver. "Brother Ning, I think you should be more careful recently. You are unlucky enough to be assassinated twice within a week."

"Hehe! If you hadn't walked so fast, you two would have been unlucky with me, so you should be more careful." Ning An said mockingly, hearing what Qin Fei said, he also felt that he was very unlucky.

"What? Two assassinations, and when is the other one?"

Hearing Qin Fei's words, Xiao Renhuai was shocked. He didn't know that Ning An was assassinated twice.

In fact, Xiao Renhuai has experienced countless assassinations since he was a child.It's just that it's different this time, this time it almost got Ning An involved, that's why he looked so angry.

"It was the day before we came to Lekang, but it was the bandits who did it that time, and those bandits have already been sent to the Yunyang County Government by Brother Ning, so it shouldn't be them this time." Qin Fei said seriously.

Xiao Renhuai had a sullen face, thinking about Qin Fei's words.Under the management of the Xiao family, there were bandits in Lekang. It seemed that it was necessary to tell my father about this matter. It might not be that simple.

Seeing Xiao Renhuai's brows tightened, Ning An hesitated in his heart whether to tell him about the suspicion of the big ice cube.After much deliberation, Ning An thought it was necessary to tell him. "Brother Xiao, there is something I think I need to tell you."

"Brother Ning, please tell me!" Xiao Renhuai asked.

"Changying suspects that those bandits may not be real bandits, they are probably deserters." Ning An said with a serious face.

"Deserters?" Chu Qi and Qin Fei exclaimed in disbelief. "Brother Changying, are you serious?"

Zhou Changying embraced the long sword and said coolly: "Yes."

Xiao Renhuai frowned even tighter. Le Kang actually hid a group of deserters. The Xiao family didn't know anything about such an important matter.

In Dayong, harboring deserters is a serious crime. If there is a group of deserters hiding within the sphere of influence of the Xiao family, and if this matter is exploited by someone with a heart, then even the Xiao family will not be able to escape the responsibility even if it is the first family.

"Thank you, Brother Ning, for telling me, I will report this matter to my father immediately!"

Xiao Renhuai cupped his hands at Ning An, then turned and left.He didn't doubt Zhou Changying's words at all, because it could be seen that Zhou Changying was a well-trained guard, his ability was much stronger than most of the guards in the Xiao Manor, he believed in Zhou Changying's judgment.

After Xiao Renhuai's figure completely disappeared from sight, Chu Qi asked, "I wonder what brother Ning's plan is going to be?"

"Since the government examination is over, we won't be able to help if we stay here. I plan to bid farewell to Brother Xiao for a while." Counting the days, they have left Pingyao for six days, and they don't know if everything is safe at home.

Chu Qi nodded: "Alright, that's exactly what I want to do!" Chu Qi's family only had a frail and sick mother, and after being away for so many days, Chu Qi was eager to return home.

The three of them bid farewell to Xiao Renhuai together, and decided to leave for Pingyao early tomorrow morning.
