Chapter 5 Life is like a play
"Tick tock..."

A drop of sweat slid down Zhang Long's cheek and hit the icy ground, instantly breaking the silent atmosphere in the hut.

"Go away." Jiang Bai said calmly, lay back on the wooden chair, closed his eyes and rested.

"Thank you, senior! Thank you, senior!" Zhang Long knocked his head loudly on the ground several times as if he had been pardoned, stood up in a panic, and was about to escape out of the house.

"Wait..." Just as Zhang Long walked to the door, Jiang Bai's vicissitudes of life sounded again. Zhang Long paused, swallowed nervously, and while his Adam's apple was shaking, he clenched his fist secretly. If Jiang Bai repented, He can only fight with his life, after all, the ants still owe their lives, "Senior, what else?"

"Hehe, don't be nervous. Since the old man said to let you go, he will naturally abide by the agreement. It's just that the old man is old and his hands and feet are inconvenient. Please pour the tea for me. After all, the maid who served me has been killed by you." Ah." Jiang Bai said slowly, opened his cloudy eyes, and looked along the old man's fingers, Zhang Long saw a sand pot and a few teacups on the dilapidated wooden table.

"Your junior is so honored." Zhang Long's heart tightened. He was very careful when he did it before, and even hid the maid's body, but now Jiang Bai said it out, and the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared. Jiang Bai became a peerless powerhouse who was hidden in the Meng Mansion, and quickly complimented him.

Zhang Long's footsteps were a little trembling, and he walked to Jiang Bai's side, bowed respectfully to the old man resting on the wooden chair, and skillfully picked up the sand pot and poured tea into the cup.

"puff……!"

"Crack...!" The sand pot in Zhang Long's hand suddenly fell to the ground and shattered.

A pair of resentful eyes widened, Zhang Long staggered a few steps, his expression was still at the moment of astonishment, and after losing his center of gravity, he fell to the ground with a bang, and the scarlet blood began to spread outwards, and from time to time it had gathered into a pool of blood.

"Huh..." Jiang Bai heaved a sigh of relief, let go of his hand, and a blood-stained dagger jingled, and fell to the floor. In the palm of his hand, it was full of nervous sweat. After resting for a long time, he stared at it. Zhang Long's body said without any waves, "Don't blame me, everything has a cause and effect, if you don't come to kill me, you won't die."

"It seems that the wind is really going to blow up." Jiang Bai frowned slightly, and lamented, the old palm slowly stretched out, closing Zhang Long's angry eyes, if you put this person back, It will only bring him more trouble. He is definitely not an indecisive person. When it is time to make a move, he never hesitates.

The high-walled compound and dense and exquisite buildings occupy a corner of Qingshan Town. Although Wuhou Mansion is the number one force in Qingshan Town, the Zhang family has been entrenched in Qingshan Town for a longer time and has a deep foundation. They are famous local snakes.

In the hall of the main courtyard, the door is wide open, the interior is carved with dragons and paintings, and two figures stand proudly in the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Second Master, Zhang Long hasn't come back yet, could it be?" An old servant with a stooped body said vaguely, halfway through the words, he stopped abruptly.

Beside the old servant was a man with a handsome face, dressed in a gorgeous white dress with blue trim, and there was a hint of maturity hidden in his firm and deep eyes. It was hard to imagine such a young man, Why is there such a feeling of vicissitudes.

"Mr. Zhang don't have to worry, this time against the Wuhou Mansion, all the big families in the town have already vassalized my Zhang family. The victory is set. I don't believe an old man who is over fifty years old! Can he still turn the world upside down!" The man who is the second master said in a cold voice, looking at Luoyang who was about to go down the mountain, he turned slowly and entered the house, and then an unquestionable voice came, "Let's pass the order, it's getting dark, it's time to go up the mountain and take the dog from Wuhou's mansion." The sick tiger was taken down."

"Yes!" Mr. Zhang bowed slowly and disappeared into the darkness.

"Ah..."

Three minutes into the night, I can only illuminate a small area in front of my eyes with the dim moonlight and the lantern in my hand.

In Marquis Wu's mansion, two servants were carrying lanterns, walking in the corridors and alleys to watch the night.

"What the hell kind of weather is this? It's only autumn and it's so cold." A young servant muttered, his tone full of complaints, his eyes constantly echoing in the dark building.

The elderly servant shook his head, with a cheap cigarette dangling from his mouth, the sparks burning slowly on the cigarette butt, and persuaded, "Don't complain, if you have the time, you might as well walk faster and go back after patrolling. "

"Patrol? What's there to patrol, why don't you just go back, it's so late at night, you can't even see a ghost, how dare thieves come to our Wuhou Mansion to steal things, what do you think? Old Song." The young servant His eyes lit up, he casually suggested, then turned his sight away in a dull manner, and asked, after asking for a long while, but did not get a reply from Lao Song.

"Old Song? Old Song? Old Song!" The young servant turned his head slowly, only to find that he was the only one in the corridor at some point. He swallowed nervously, and suddenly felt a chill rising from his back , Shrinking his head, the young servant held the lantern and carefully turned around to look for it.

"Old Song? Is that you?" Vaguely, the young servant saw a black figure sitting slumped on the corner at the end of the corridor, his right hand tremblingly stretched out the lantern, and the weak candlelight slowly approached.

"Ah! Killing! Killing!" A cry of exclamation came from the servant's mouth, the lantern fell to the ground, and the servant rushed frantically in the opposite direction. Discipline is strict, and everyone can be a soldier. Now they are all flatterers, living by pleasing their masters, but they are actually as timid as a mouse.

"Pfft!" The servant's exclamation stopped abruptly, and he bumped into a masked man in black head-on. The sharp white blade reflected light in the dark night and pierced through the servant's chest pain.

The lantern that fell on the floor was burning, and the fire continued to spread, reflecting the old face of the elderly servant, his eyes were white, and traces of blood flowed down from the skull. The anger grew bigger and bigger, and gradually climbed up the wooden pillar. He Fangliang, a fire woke up the sleeping Wuhou Mansion completely!
Under the reflection of the fire, the black shadows gradually became clear. If the famous Jia Ding was still alive, he would have been terrified. There are countless assassins hidden in the shadows in the corner!All in black and masked!

"Let's do it! The second master has an order, not one will be left tonight."

"Yes!" There was a neat response, and the next moment, black shadows shuttled through the houses and sneaked into the inner courtyard!
