Chapter 1854 Bring him out!
Xiao Yichen said: "Release the news, just say that the empress was assassinated and died."

Mu Feng was taken aback. Although he knew the news was false, he couldn't help but feel palpitations.

Xiao Yichen looked at Mu Feng, and said, "For a while, find a chance to let that hunter escape, and then..."

Xiao Yichen whispered instructions in Mu Feng's ear, and Mu Feng nodded repeatedly.

That night, news came from the palace that the queen had died.

Mu Feng led people to the cell where the hunter was held.

Mu Feng looked coldly at the hunter killer in the cell, and said, "Open the door! Bring him out!"

"Yes!" The cell boss agreed, took the key, walked to the cell door, and opened it.

Two soldiers went in and brought the hunter out.

Mu Feng glanced at him coldly, and said in a deep voice: "The empress was killed by this fellow, the emperor has orders to bring this person to Caishikou immediately for execution."

Hearing this, the man was both happy and frightened for a moment. He was happy that the queen was killed by them, but he was afraid that he would be dragged to execution.

Although this man is a killer, he is also afraid of death. Thinking that he just wanted to kill the queen, but he was captured alive before he even stabbed the queen. It is really unfair to die like this.

The hunter said: "I didn't kill the queen, general, you also saw clearly at that time, my dagger landed on the ground before it touched the queen, please be clear, general, and spare the villain's life."

Mu Feng stared at him coldly, and said: "Although this general knows that the queen was not killed by you, the emperor was furious when the queen died. The other killers are already dead, and you are the only one left alive. The emperor will not let you go. What's more, you broke into the palace and assassinated the queen, although you didn't kill it yourself, you also committed a capital crime."

The hunter was stunned for a moment, his face pale with fright.

Mu Feng didn't say much, and with a wave of his hand, the two soldiers grabbed the hunter all the way out of the cell.

Mu Feng took the hunter with him to the vegetable market, and Mu Feng said: "Execute."

The hunter wanted to beg for mercy, but was gagged.

The two soldiers took out the ropes they had prepared in advance, and put them around the hunter's neck, tightening them until he passed out.

Mu Feng raised his right hand, and the two hurriedly let him go, and then threw his body into the mass grave.

After an unknown amount of time, the hunter woke up and got up from the ground. Seeing the corpses that had rotted away all around him, he felt a chill rising from his scalp.

The cold wind blew past, carrying a gloomy chill.

The hunter's heart was trembling, and he left the mass grave as if fleeing, and came all the way to the hunter's tavern on the outskirts of the city.

The hunter quickly walked up to the shopkeeper Wu San, and said: "Wu San, I have completed that task, please give me the reward of three thousand gold."

The hunter narrowly escaped death, he just wanted to quickly take the three thousand pieces of gold and escape from Qidu.

Wu San looked him up and down, and said, "The task is completed? But, you didn't bring back the head, how do you know you have completed the task?"

This kind of hunter accepts the killing task, and the standard for completing the task is to bring back the head of the slain.

The hunter frowned, and said: "It's not that you don't know the identity of that person, the Imperial Palace, I'm lucky to be able to come out alive, how did I get to cut off that person's head, but that person is definitely dead gone."

Wu San pondered for a moment, then said: "Then you can come back in three days, after the news of the man's death is confirmed, the owner will give you the reward."

"No!" The hunter refused without even thinking about it: "Three days is too long, if I kill that man, the whole Qidu will want me."
