The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 312 Assassination
Big Eye has no real name, or his real name is Big Eye. Like other dead soldiers raised by Prince Uizada's Palace, he has no father or mother, no place of origin, no name, only a code name, and Big Eye because of his special eyes. Big, so the coach gave him the codename Big Eye.

The instructor is also a dead soldier raised by Prince Yi Zhong's palace. He is also the first generation of dead soldiers. He is very old and has very senior qualifications. He is the only survivor among the first generation of dead soldiers. No one knows his code name because everyone They just call him the instructor.

Big Eye has big eyes and strong arms. He learned archery from his instructor since he was a child. When he grew up, he was able to shoot a four-stone bow and hit the target with 100 shots within 200 steps. He became the leader and killer among the many soldiers who died in Prince Uizada's palace. The gold medal killer in the game has never missed a mission.

At this moment, Big Eyes was lying on the branches of a big tree like a cheetah. Opposite was the hill that the officers and soldiers had cleared today, and the flag of the Jin army was clearly planted on the top of the hill.

With his big copper bell-like eyes open, he stared unblinkingly at the hilltop opposite, waiting for the target to appear. The location he chose was undoubtedly the best. The view was excellent. It was condescending. The setting sun came from the rear left, and he had an unobstructed view of the mountains on the opposite side.

At this time, the target finally appeared. Big Eyes, who was lying down, immediately got up, half-kneeling on one knee, stood firmly on the tree branch, and took off the iron bow he was carrying.

This iron tire bow is a three-stone bow with a bow power of three hundred and sixty kilograms. This is not Big Eye's limit. He can even draw the four-stone bow, but he can only draw it twice in a short period of time, and He couldn't always hit the target, so he used to use a three-stone bow.

From the position where Big Eye is hiding to the hilltop opposite, the straight-line distance is within two hundred meters, so the shooting range of the three-stone bow is enough. The only difficulty is that there are two targets for this assassination. One is Jia Huan, the concubine of the Jia family. , the other is Yi Hong, the commander of Jinyiwei.

If Big Eye wants to successfully kill these two people, he must wait for a perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. Otherwise, if he shoots either one first, the other one will most likely escape.

This challenge is very difficult, but Big Eye is very confident in his archery skills. His mission has never failed, and this time, he believes it will be no exception.

At this moment, on the hilltop opposite, Yi Hong and Jia Huan, surrounded by a group of soldiers, were patrolling along the mountain road. When they reached the mountainside, an ancient temple appeared in front of them.

This ancient temple is a Buddhist temple called Prajna Temple. It is said to have been built during the Northern Song Dynasty. It was later destroyed by wars several times. The most recent renovation was during the Dazhi period. Nowadays, all the monks in the temple have been moved, so the temple is empty inside and outside.

Outside the Prajna Temple is a small open square where horses can be parked. Yi Hong, Jia Huan and others stopped in the small square outside the temple, pointing in the direction of the main peak, seeming to be discussing something, obviously not aware of the danger. Approaching.

The big eyes were condescending and saw very clearly. He immediately nocked an arrow and bent the bow, like holding the moon in his arms. The two big eyes, which were originally like copper bells, narrowed slightly and suddenly became as sharp as an eagle.

The mountain wind blew, the leaves rustled, and the branches swayed lightly, but the big eyes on the tree branches were as steady as a rock, motionless, patiently waiting for the opportunity to let go.

At the same time, there was also a person on another mountain doing similar actions, that was Zhu Jinyue.

At this moment, Zhu Jinyue was hiding on a rock. The surrounding thatch was more than one and a half meters higher than the rock, forming an excellent sight barrier. He could clearly see outside through the gaps between the thatch, but people outside could not see. To him hiding behind the thatch.

Zhu Jinyue was kneeling on his knees, with his waist straight, two two-stone bows working together, the arrows were strung, and the bows were rounded. He was still as motionless as a stone sculpture, staring quietly at the small square in front of the Prajna Temple opposite. .

Obviously, Zhu Jinyue is also waiting for a perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

Zhu Jinyue did not know Jia Huan, but among the group of people across from him, everyone was wearing armor, except for a young man wearing a jade-colored scholar's t-shirt. He was so eye-catching that it was difficult for Zhu Jinyue to recognize the wrong person.

At the beginning, Zhu Jinyue's target was only Jia Huan, but when he saw the "resurrected" Jin Yiwei commander Yi Hong, his targets instantly became two people.

During the battle at Chongmingsha, Zhu Jinyue thought he had killed Yi Hong, and he was very proud of it. But now he discovered that Yi Hong was not dead at all, but was shot blind in one eye. It was probably at that time that The distance was a bit far, and due to the strong wind in the river, the arrow was not powerful enough. It shot through the neck of a Jinyi guard but did not penetrate Yi Hong's head.

But it doesn’t matter, Yi Hong is dead this time!
Zhu Jinyue was so confident that he could shoot Jia Huan and Yi Hong through the throats with one arrow.

At this moment, in the square in front of Chuanruo Temple, Jia Huan and Yi Hong were still discussing something. From time to time, they put up a pergola and looked in the direction of the main peak. However, the two of them stood there and had not moved for a long time.

Zhu Jinyue waited for two cups of tea, and his string-pulling hand was a little numb. He couldn't help but frown secretly. Neither Jia Huan nor Yi Hong moved. Naturally, he would not be able to seize the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. If he only killed One, that's much easier.

Zhu Jinyue was a decisive person. He hesitated for two seconds before making the decision to kill Jia Huan first. Although Yi Hong has a higher status and is the confidant of the Emperor of Jin Dynasty, Jia Huan's potential is even more amazing. Once he grows up, he will be more harmful and must be removed first.

Zhu Jinyue made up his mind and pointed the arrow at Jia Huan. Just as he was about to release the arrow, he suddenly felt a flash of cold light on the top of the mountain near the left, which immediately caught his attention. He lowered his bow and observed carefully.

Zhu Jinyue was a marksman in his own right. Not only did he have sharp eyesight, but he was also very experienced in selecting terrain for sniping. Therefore, it only took him a moment to discover the big eyes of the dead soldier hiding on the hilltop on the left. His expression suddenly changed and he rolled over hurriedly.

——Whoosh!

Within half a second of Zhu Jinyue's rolling movement, a powerful arrow had already shot out, accurately landing on the rock where Zhu Jinyue had just been, making a ding sound and creating a long string of sparks.

Zhu Jinyue broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly bent over and retreated behind another rock. This was the backup sniper position he had chosen, and now it came in handy. As soon as he entered the pit, he quickly locked the enemy's position, and the bowstring squeaked. It fills up in one go.

At this moment, the big eye on the top of Zuo Ze Mountain had fallen down, leaning between the branches of the tree like a gecko, with cold sweat on its forehead.

It turns out that just now, when Zhu Jinyue discovered Big Eye, Big Eye also discovered Zhu Jinyue, and out of instinct, he shot first, but unfortunately he missed.

In this level of archer duel, missing the first hit is often fatal. Although Big Eyes couldn't see Zhu Jinyue at this moment, his intuition told him that he had been targeted, so he lay there and did not dare to move.

Zhu Jinyue knelt behind the rock and took the absolute initiative. He raised his bow and nocked an arrow, staring intently at the big tree on the opposite hillside. Although he could not see the other party, his intuition told him that the other party was still hiding in his original position. What is now competing is each other's endurance.

Time passed by minute by second, and the setting sun was scorching from behind. With my big eyes, I could only feel that the skin on the back of my neck was aching from the sun. My whole body was soaked with sweat, half of it was hot, and the other half was cold sweat.

At this moment, Big Eye has confirmed that he has met a veteran, and judging from the opponent's quick and decisive reaction, he is definitely a master. Thinking of this, Big Eye regretted his recklessness. Judging from the selection of his position, the target of the colleague opposite him at the beginning was not him, but most likely Jia Huan, Yi Hong and others. But now there is no use regretting it. The sniper Once they take over, the final result can only be that one party falls, and what's worse is that the initiative is now in the hands of the other party.

At this moment, Zhu Jinyue was also guessing about Big Eye's identity, but he only thought that the other party was an archer arranged by the officers and soldiers. He never expected that the other party was also here to assassinate Jia Huan.

After another two cups of tea, Big Eyes finally couldn't hold it any longer. He was lying down at a certain angle and had to wrap his hands and feet around the tree branches, so it was very strenuous. Moreover, the sun was shining directly on his back. It's as uncomfortable as burning.

After a while, Big Eyes knew that he could not wait any longer. Once his hands lost strength, he would fall under the tree, which would undoubtedly be fatal. So he gritted his teeth and climbed down the tree branch little by little.

You must be very careful when doing this. Once your body is slightly exposed from the tree trunk, even if it is not a vital part, you may be angry on the spot!

Zhu Jinyue on the hilltop opposite was also sweating profusely at the moment. After all, it was quite strenuous to pull the bow string for a long time. Finally, he saw the branches trembling. The trembling was different from the natural swing of the wind, so Zhu Jinyue He saw through it at a glance, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Finally I can't hide it anymore. No matter how cunning the prey is, it can never escape the patient hunter."

At this time, the big eye on the tree has moved a certain distance along the branches. After a short distance, it can reach the main trunk. As long as it moves behind the main trunk, it can land smoothly and escape.

Big Eyes took a deep breath, and the four arrows suddenly exerted their strength. They used their last strength to kick and flew out. However, in the midst of the electric light and flint, a powerful arrow shot through the air like lightning, passing through the layers of branches and leaves. , hitting Big Eye's chest as if it had eyes.

puff……

The arrow penetrated the flesh, and the big eyes felt a sharp pain, and the body was involuntarily pushed forward by a strong force.

thump...

There was a muffled sound, and the arrow pierced deeply into the tree, hanging together with Big Eye's body more than two meters above the ground.

Big eyes opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his neck tilted, his eyes and pupils gradually became blurred, and finally lost their brilliance completely.

The mountain wind blew through the jungle, leaving only the sound of rustling.

Zhu Jinyue showed a smile of victory. Although the two mountains were separated by a straight line distance of nearly 200 meters, he could still "hear" the sound of the arrow entering the flesh, or feel it. This was a very mysterious feeling. Only true marksmen have this ability.

Zhu Jinyue moved his numb hands and returned to the previous shooting position. He looked through the thatch at the Prajna Temple on the opposite side and found that even though they had been delayed for half an hour, Jia Huan and Yi Hong had not yet left the gate in front of the temple. The square couldn't help but be overjoyed and said to himself: "I gave you a chance to live, but it's a pity that it didn't work. You deserve to die!"

Zhu Jinyue no longer hesitated, quickly bent his bow and aimed, and what came out was an arrow! ! !
At this time, in the small square in front of the Prajna Temple, Jia Huan was about to get on his horse and leave. Suddenly, he felt alarmed and the hair on his body exploded. It was exactly the same as when he was encircling Chongmingsha last time. He had already stepped on the stirrup with one foot. He hurriedly lay down on the spot.

whoosh...

It's late, but it's fast. In the 0.01 second before Jia Huan lay down, a powerful arrow shot out like a flying star from the sky, hit the saddle with a snap, and then penetrated into the horse's saddle. Horse belly.

The pitiful horse stood up with a mournful scream, and then suddenly fell to the ground. Jia Huan, with one foot still hanging in the stirrup, was thrown high on the spot, and then fell heavily.

"Jia!" Mandarin screamed and jumped forward.

Yi Hong was once bitten by a snake and had been afraid of well ropes for ten years. At this moment, he sensed the danger and ducked behind his mount. The guards in royal robes surrounding him also shouted around and raised their shields to form an airtight barrier. The wall protects Yi Hong in the middle.

"What the heck!" Zhu Jinyue, who was standing on the rock opposite, cursed secretly, with a confused look on his face. Did this kid accidentally fall down, or did he sense the danger and avoid it in advance?
If it's the former, this kid is also very lucky. He didn't fall sooner or later, but he fell at this time. If it's the latter, it's even more amazing. Does this kid have the ability to sense danger in advance?

Although Zhu Jinyue was shocked and doubtful, he did not delay the movement of his hand at all, and shot out another arrow.

At this time, Jia Huan was falling to pieces. Before he could get up, a second powerful arrow hit him again.

"Third Master, be careful!" Tiehu's eyes were now broken, and he ran over like a mad tiger. Unfortunately, he was too far away and couldn't catch up.

Seeing that Jia Huan was about to die under the arrow, Mandarin was the first to arrive, and she jumped on Jia Huan. The powerful arrow happened to hit the round shield she was carrying, and with a clang, it refracted into the air. .

At this time, Tie Hu also rushed forward and blocked the front like an iron tower. Soon, the surrounding soldiers and guards also rushed up to protect Jia Huan in the middle.

"Jia, wake up, wake up!" Mandarin patted Jia Huan's face hard. Seeing that the latter's eyes were still closed, she was so anxious that she almost cried.

Fortunately, at this time, Jia Huan opened his eyes, his handsome face turned red from holding back, and while coughing violently, he said in a hoarse voice: "Get up... get up, don't be depressed... you can't breathe!"

It turned out that Jia Huan had just been thrown hard and was already a little dizzy. As a result, Mandarin flew up and pressed him under her again, directly squeezing him out of breath.

Seeing Jia Huan wake up, Mandarin couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "Oh my god, you scared me to death!"

"Can you...get off me first? I'm about to be crushed to death. Are you seeking revenge for personal gain?" Jia Huan said feebly.

Only then did Mandarin realize that she was still lying on Jia Huan's body in an intimate position. She hurriedly got up, her face burning.
