Chapter 461: It’s easy to hide from open guns and hard to avoid hidden arrows
  Little did they know that while they were chatting, several Lin family assassins had already been ambushing them in the room outside the door.

They experienced the failed assassination attempt in Yucheng, and they learned wisely this time and did not plan to show up until they succeeded.

Several people hid in the raised position on the house, all holding crossbows and aiming their arrows at Ma Ji and Oona.

They also knew that Oona was here to tip off, and after learning of Oona's identity, several people temporarily decided to include Oona on the assassination list.

If he could kill Oona, it would be equivalent to greatly weakening Lin Yun's strength.

In the past few years, Oona has caused them a lot of trouble.

Almost every time there is a big action, Oona will be there again.

This is also Lin Yun's affirmation of the third lady's ability.

But in the eyes of the Lin family, Oona has long been a thorn in the flesh, causing unhappiness.

Therefore, even if there is no order from the top management of the Lin family, they dare to change their plans temporarily.

At this time, one of the assassins had already aimed at Oona's chest and whispered: "Sir, do you want to do it now?"

A man in black stared at the two people below with a solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "Wait a moment!! We only have one chance, we must hit it with one hit!!"

To measure the quality of a killer, in addition to the ability to kill, the most important thing is to have enough patience.

Find the best time to hit the target.

At that time, they can take advantage of the chaos and escape.

This is considered to be their own protection. Otherwise, it would be like the assassination of Qiu Guangri last night. They had obviously succeeded, but they encountered stubborn resistance from the other party, and finally lost five people.

Here, Oona and Ma Ji don't know they have been targeted by the secret killer.

Ma Ji arranged for officers and soldiers to search the whole city, but he did not expect that the killer had already lurked into his official residence.

At this time, Ma Ji asked: "Third Madam, I heard that Mr. Lin killed all the Lin family's negotiating envoys in Taoyuan Town, but is it true?"

Oona smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Ma's intelligence is quite good, but it is true! The Lin family does not know whether to live or die, and they dare to put forward excessive conditions in this situation! You deserve to die!!"

"Haha! That's great! Mr. Lin acted decisively, which severely damaged the Lin family, and also gave us lower-level officials confidence!! I, Ma Ji, will follow Mr. Lin's lead at any time and will never be ambiguous!!"

"Master Ma, there is no need to express your position! My husband knows Master Ma's thoughts. This time I sent my concubine to inform you in a hurry. This is because my husband attaches great importance to you!"

The two of them complimented each other with every word, seemingly enthusiastic, but in fact, their thoughts were all focused on the Lin family assassin.

Especially Ma Ji, he was waiting for his subordinates to report the results of the battle. If he could solve all the troubles before Lin Yun arrived, it would be a good thing for him.

But at this moment, two cold arrows were shot out without any warning.

Oona immediately sensed the danger and subconsciously turned her head to look outside the door. When she saw the two arrow feathers being shot, she was shocked. But even if she could detect it, she would not have time to avoid it. After all, everything happened so suddenly.

The arrow hit Oona right in the chest.

On the contrary, Ma Ji was extremely lucky. Originally, the arrow was aimed at her heart, but at the critical moment, he reached for the teapot on the table. It was such a small movement that caused the arrow to deviate from the vital point and finally hit her. wear his shoulders.

Ma Ji let out a scream, and his right shoulder was nailed directly to the chair by a crossbow arrow, causing him unbearable pain.

But he immediately looked at Oona's situation and saw that Oona had fallen on the chair and her chest was bleeding.

He shouted: "Here comes someone!! There is an assassin!!"

At this time, the officers and soldiers guarding the living room rushed in. When they saw Ma Ji and Oona were both injured, they were all shocked.

Several officers and soldiers stepped forward to help Ma Ji pull out the crossbow arrows from his shoulders. Ma Ji cursed: "Leave me alone!! Go see the third lady!!"

He now wished he could cut the Lin family's killer into pieces.

He was most afraid that something would happen to the third lady, but he didn't expect that whatever he was afraid of would happen, the third lady would still be seriously injured in front of him.

Oona was already very skilled in martial arts, so her physical condition was also good. Although this arrow was fatal and caused her to bleed profusely, she would not die for a while.

She secretly gritted her teeth, but did not let out a scream. She looked at the officers and soldiers coming in a hurry, and said in a deep voice: "Why are you panic!! Leave a few people to protect me and Master Ma, and the rest of the people will chase the assassin!!"

If she hadn't been injured and pinned to the chair, she would have pursued him immediately.

Only then did all the officers and soldiers react and rushed out the door. When they saw the assassins on the roof, they immediately chased after them.

At this time, an officer and soldier who stayed behind said: "Third Madam, let me first pull out the crossbow and arrows from your body?"

Oona frowned and said, "No! If you pull it out now, the bleeding won't stop! Go and notify the Baicao Hall in Haocheng to come to the rescue!!"

The officers and soldiers nodded quickly and agreed to leave.

Ma Jidao: "Third Madam, are you okay?"

Oona shook her head slowly, biting her lower lip secretly. Except for a few drops of blood splattered on her face, she was covered in cold sweat.

She had delivered messages to Lin Yun many times before, and had even participated in some battles, but had never been injured.

This time it was definitely a huge shame for her.

But she also understood that the injury she suffered this time was very serious. If it was not treated in time, the consequences would be disastrous, and her life might be in danger.

However, as a female general who has been on the battlefield for many years, she knows very well that with this kind of injury, she must stay calm. The more nervous she is, the faster the bleeding will be. Moreover, without a doctor present, she cannot easily handle this kind of injury. Failure to do so may result in massive bleeding.

After all, the chest is covered with various blood vessels and internal organs, and the slightest mistake can be fatal.

At this moment, Lin Jinbiao finally arrived, and with him came the doctor from Baicaotang.

Several doctors were also members of the Sun family, and the leader was Sun Xuemeng's cousin, Sun Hongtao, Sun Xing's son.

He has now successfully become a doctor and is in charge of Baicaotang in Haocheng.

Lin Jinbiao was startled when he saw the scene in front of him. He quickly stepped forward and said, "What...what's going on?" '

Ma Ji said: "Lin Jinbiao, don't ask any more questions!! Go quickly and lead the officers and soldiers in the city to arrest the Lin family assassins!!"

Lin Jinbiao's eyes lit up. Although what happened in front of him surprised him, he also understood that the opportunity he had always wanted had come.

He cupped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Ma!! Leave this matter to me!!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Ma Ji endured the pain and said: "Lin Jinbiao, I don't care what method you use, the assassin who lurked to assassinate me and the third lady this time must be caught!! If you can't do it, don't be my master!!"

Lin Jinbiao shuddered, and instead of staying, he quickened his pace and left.

He could tell that Ma Ji was warning him about the seriousness of this incident.

The more serious it is, the better his chances.

Therefore, instead of being angry, he was extremely excited.
