in the edge

Chapter 170
Among the crowd, there was a short man carrying a package and chewing a bunch of candied haws. He looked extremely inconspicuous.

People were passing by, and no one thought there was anything wrong with this man. Although the package was a bit eye-catching, people only regarded him as a vendor who came to set up a stall - after all, their eyes could not penetrate the cloth package. There was no way to see the buckler wrapped under the coarse cloth, with some old blood stains on it.

This is also the effect the short man wants. Since he wants to assassinate, he must hide in the crowd.

But the question is, can he really do it?

Thinking of the target of this assassination, the short man had a headache. After all, this was not the first time he and the other party had met - the last time was in Yizhou City, when the old man named Qian Yu was going to report for murder. Zi Zhiqiu, by the way, suppressed the rebellion in Yizhou. As for the process of suppressing the rebellion, it was not complicated. It did not require the use of any large army. It only needed to release the evil spirits of the two rebels and kill them.

Of course, when it comes to killing, it is definitely not easy to go head-to-head. If two evil spirits are prepared to fight, it is actually very difficult to kill without any injuries. As for the reason, of course, it is because people who cannot be beaten will run away. If you can't get rid of it, you will fight tooth and nail. A person who is willing to fight to release his evil spirit will be enough to seriously injure him even if he faces another person who releases his evil spirit.

So Qian Yu took action. The old man said that he had inherited the secret method of Dayu in the past and knew how to make those two evil spirits become trash that could be killed casually.

Then everything is over.

They failed to kill the evil man named Du Chengfeng, but their benefactor, Prime Minister Jia Wenjia, was beaten to death by Du Chengfeng who rode over on the first day he came to the throne. In the Jinluan Palace.

No one knows why this man named Du Chengfeng did this. The way he ran thousands of miles looked like he was mentally ill - but no matter what, this madman still beat Prime Minister Jia Wen to death.

"Once Jia Wen dies, we remnants will naturally be liquidated, so whether it's for revenge or to frighten the enemies, we have to kill Du Chengfeng."

The short man still remembered what the old man named Qian Yu said.

The principle is this, but how to do it is another matter.At least in the short man's own opinion, the little power they have might not be able to defeat that Du Chengfeng - but God knows where Qian Yu got the foreign aid from, and it's still an extremely powerful foreign aid.

"So... it should be possible, right?"

The short man thought so.

But immediately, he stood up.

Du Chengfeng in the distance began to move, and his pace was obviously faster than before. It was obvious that this master who showed off his evil spirit had finally noticed something - which is why the short man felt that this assassination was not reliable. Because in the eyes of a master who is letting out evil spirits, another person who is letting out evil spirits is as conspicuous as a guiding light even if he hides his tracks.

That murderous temperament and the faint evil aura that surrounds him are things that cannot be hidden.

So since we have to play our cards brightly, we have to play our cards brightly.

As the short man moved forward, the crowd around him gradually became thinner. After the crowd completely faded away, the tigers and wolves hidden in the crowd revealed their true appearance.

There is a mad monk with a big waist and a long soul-stealing staff, a swordsman with a machete and an evil look on his face, and a man with a boring rake who looks like a simple farmer. These three people and the short man Like men, they are all masters of martial arts who were originally gathered in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Beside them, there were four other men in fine clothes, holding cloth bags of different lengths in their arms. Just look at the iron color faintly exposed under the round collar robes, and they were all wearing armor.

Including the short man, there were eight people in total.

In front of them, in the empty alley, there was only one person and one horse.

The alley is not very spacious, and there are thick brick walls of those deep mansions on both sides. Although it is not a problem for pedestrians, if you want to do something in it, it is already difficult for two people side by side.

"He found a good place for himself."

The crazy monk Jing'an, who was carrying the soul-stealing stick, couldn't help but laugh.

"What do you mean, who among us will come first?"

"Don't be stupid, let's all come together."

The man carrying the rake waved his weapon, and the walls on both sides of the alley were blasted into broken masonry.

For ordinary people, it may be useful to use geographical advantages to fight against pursuit.

But for masters who let out evil spirits, the geographical advantage is not worth mentioning. "Do it!"

The man using the boring rake was the first to rush forward, and the boring rake in his hand blew up a cruel wind.

And behind him, the swordsman carrying a scimitar drew his sword out of its sheath. The dark purple scimitar was far more sinister than the swordsman's face.The crazy monk Jing'an who was carrying the soul-stealing long stick had also dismantled the long stick into a nine-section whip with a wider attack range.

At the same time, the short man also opened the package and took out the blood-stained steel buckler.

"and many more?"

The short man who was about to rush forward to fight suddenly felt that something was not right.

They rushed forward, but why didn't those foreign players move?Didn't we agree to do it together?Why were they the only ones left?

"you……"

The short man turned around subconsciously.

Then, his voice caught in his throat.

The four generals, who seemed ordinary but extremely powerful, had all fallen to the ground at some point. They had two swords, a long sword, and a long iron staff. These were supposed to be used The weapons that killed Du Chengfeng were now nailed to the chests of those generals.

A burly man nearly seven feet tall was squatting on the ground, crushing the head of the last general.

As easy as crushing a walnut.

"Shh."

Just when the short man was about to shout something, the tall man squatting on the ground suddenly raised his head and made a silencing gesture to him.

"Don't make any sound, you should go over there and fight him."

"you……"

How could the short man not make a sound when he was so shocked.

You must know that just now the eight of them were in a state of preparation for battle, but no one of them noticed when this strange and sturdy man came behind them!
He is a master!He is a master who is far superior to them!
"drink!"

The short man's reaction had never been so fast. He put up his shield almost immediately. Surrounded by the thick evil aura, it only took a moment to form an indestructible wall of sighs!

Even if the evil spirit is released, it is impossible to break his defense. The short man has such confidence.

But in his sight, the big hand like a cattail fan still broke his shield, slit his throat, and used his sword to slap his head into the ground.

"Hey! You're so quick!"

Glancing at the corpse on the ground, the sturdy man couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"Wouldn't this mean I killed five?"
