Chapter 62 Assassination
In the sky, the setting sun is about to sink, and the faint evening wind blows on the face, making it cool.It was really getting late, Wu Yan quickened her pace.She didn't look at the house specifically, she knew that the people inside the house must be staring at her, no wonder she felt strangely uncomfortable just now.

Faintly heard someone calling Wu Yan behind her, Wu Yan turned her head and opened her eyes, only Gong Zhenggong followed behind her.Then he asked, "Did you guys call me just now?"

The two replied in unison: "No."

Thinking about it again, the two of them usually called her son, and never called her by her name.Maybe she heard it wrong, but Wu Yan didn't take it to heart.

The big man didn't lie to her, and after walking in the direction he pointed, he walked on a relatively spacious official road.

The setting sun had completely sunk into the sky, and the twilight was getting darker.Although there is an official road at the foot, it is not very wide because it circles the mountainside, only allowing two carriages to go side by side.After bypassing a mountain ridge, the old house has long been out of sight, and the front enters a mountain depression, with steep cliffs on both sides of the mountain depression.

Gong Zhi looked up at the cliff, and said with a smile: "I think back when we two brothers hadn't changed our ways, we liked to choose this kind of terrain to do business the most."

Gong Zheng shouted: "Second brother, our identities are different now, so don't say such things in the future."

Wu Yan heard the conversation, turned around and looked at them jokingly.Gong Zhi spread his hands towards her, and made a face at Gong Zheng's back, Wu Yan burst out laughing.Gong Zheng looked at her puzzled.

Seeing Gong Zheng's confused look, Wu Yan couldn't help laughing, and just about to say a joke, Gong Zheng's expression suddenly changed and stopped her.Gong Zhi also had a stern expression on his face, no longer smiling, and Gong Zheng sandwiched Wu Yan in front of him.

Wu Yan saw a black shadow flickering in front of her eyes, and several masked men in night clothes jumped out from behind the scattered boulders at the foot of the cliff.

There were seven or eight masked men, including Wu Yan and the three of them.No one spoke, and for a while, the valley was as quiet as a tomb.

Only Gong Zheng asked in a deep voice: "Which way?"

The leading masked man snorted coldly and said, "Stop talking nonsense, and take your life." With a wave of his hand, all the masked men stepped forward at the same time.

Gong Zhenggong hurriedly pulled out the saber from his waist, and fought with the masked man.Wu Yan was caught in the shadow of sword, light and sword, she couldn't see clearly, only Bai Huanghuang surrounded her by a ray of light.

"Ah, ah!" There were several screams, and Wu Yan's heart tightened.At this time, the light and shadow slowed down, Wu Yan finally saw clearly, it turned out that several masked men fell to the ground, and there were three remaining masked men struggling to support them, but Gong Zheng and Gong Zhi fought more and more courageously.Wu Yan felt relieved, no wonder Gong Ziling said that the two of them are highly skilled in martial arts, and it was indeed genuine.

Soon Gongzheng and Gongzhi got rid of another masked man, leaving only the leader. Seeing that the winner was sure, several masked men flooded in from the back of the mountain, all dressed in the same style as the previous ones.

Wu Yan secretly sighed, these people are endless, and at the same time she was amazed, these people don't know their background, it seems that they must be killed, she doesn't seem to have any enemies.Gongzheng Gongzhi's heavy breathing could be heard clearly, and Wu Yan was anxious. If the other party adopted the wheel tactics, they would be exhausted to death.

After fighting for a while, Gongzheng and Gongzhi gradually failed, and both of them suffered several moderate injuries.

Suddenly, Gong Zheng's legs went limp and he knelt down on the ground, with blood bubbling from a wound more than a foot long on his leg.He gritted his teeth, picked up the knife and rolled towards the palace, resorting to the attack of the same death, blocked the attack of the masked man for Gongzhi, and shouted: "Second brother, quickly take the young master away, leave me alone."

Blood flowed all over the ground, Gong Zhi grabbed Wu Yan and ran away with tears in his eyes.Unexpectedly, after only two steps, several masked men descended from the sky and blocked them.
