After the Fairy Disappeared

  Chapter 265 Tasteful anti-killing

   When he stood up, he quietly tapped his father on the back a few times, the code meaning was "be careful".

  He Chunhua looked at the two of them, but said nothing.

  The restaurant owner also gave them directions: "There is a latrine behind, don't look down after entering."

  The two of them left the restaurant, Shan Youjun said in a low voice: "Master, look at these horses, they are all excellent horses that are good at running."

  He Lingchuan didn't pay attention at all, after all, today's Xinhuang has no shortage of cattle and horses. De Shan Youjun reminded him that when he took a closer look, the three horses were smooth and smooth, with long legs, willow ears, wide chest and thick muscles, and piercing eyes.

  This is different from a poor horse pulling a cart.

  One of them was digging the ground, Shan Youjun glanced at it and said: "These three are war horses, and the horseshoes and shoes have just been repaired. I have been a ranger in the north, so I can't make a mistake."

  Those three merchants, everyone has such a good horse?

  Shan Youjun hurriedly said: "How many groups of merchants have we seen since we traveled all the way north? As soon as we arrived at Xinhuang, they happened to be here."

  The north-central part of Xiazhou is in a depression, and business travelers can't make money, so they don't take this route very much. He Lingchuan went north with the grain transport team, and indeed there were not many caravans along the way, and there were not even many bulk caravans.

  He took a light breath: "Understood, let's go back after a few shakes outside."

  The two of them took a few steps, and a light flickered behind them. He Lingchuan looked back, one of the three merchants came out, covered his belly with one hand and said, "I also want to go to the latrine. Haven't you found it yet?"

  He Lingchuan pointed to the back of the restaurant: "I didn't find it, didn't you mean it was behind the noodle restaurant?"

   "Follow me." The merchant said and went into the alley behind the restaurant.

  It was already dark, and the residents did not turn on the lights, so there were dark alleys everywhere. There are low walls less than seven feet on both sides of this alley, but the trees are tall and provide shade during the day, needless to say, the light is blocked even more at night.

  The wind is blowing, the leaves are rustling, and the surroundings are dark and dull, like a ghost movie.

  In this kind of time and place, something must happen.

  Turning two turns, He Lingchuan asked the merchants who were striding forward: "How long is it? Why is the latrine so far away?"

   "Come on, it's just ahead."

   "You seem to be familiar with this area?" He Lingchuan stopped and said with a smile, "You often come here to squat?"

  The merchant also turned around: "Aren't you going? I'm in a hurry."

  He Lingchuan and Shan Youjun whispered something, but the merchants didn’t listen at all. He Lingchuan immediately said: “I don’t think you are like merchants. You may not even have those few good horses in the army.”

  The merchant scratched his head: "I don't think you look like that. How can there be any merchants going north at this time?" Then his face tightened, and he drank:

   "Do it!"

  He also let go of the hand that was scratching his head, but turned his wrist instead, and there was a soft "swoosh", and the sleeve arrow shot from the camera obscura went straight to He Lingchuan's face.

  He has good eyesight, and he can tell that He Lingchuan has a higher status among the two.

   There is no warning for this turn of events, and the dark alley is full of chaos. Who can notice this stab in the back?

  At the same time, a person emerged from behind the low walls on both sides, and threw himself behind He Lingchuan and Shan Youjun.

  From the very beginning, they had the idea of ​​deceiving people to come in and be slaughtered.

  He Lingchuan had been prepared for a long time, and dodged the hidden arrow sideways, and the fragrant dumpling hidden in his left hand had already hit the ground one step earlier.

  An indescribable stench instantly covered this narrow dark alley.

   Coincidentally, the wind stopped at this time, and the smell was so strong that it couldn't be added.

   Both He Lingchuan and Shan Youjun held their breath, but the three opponents were thrown into a panic by the sudden stink bomb. The merchant who led He Lingchuan into the alley before couldn't help but bend over and retch, and the two people who came over the wall subconsciously covered their mouths and noses before they could stand still.

  This is a natural physiological response.

  Just now, He Lingchuan whispered to Shan Youjun, only two words:

   Hold your breath!

  The other party wants to trick them, so why don't they want to trick each other?

  The man who was retching didn't know it was right as soon as he bent down, and was about to hold his breath and draw his knife, when He Lingchuan raised his wrist, and also stabbed him in the back.

  The Zijin Xiujian specially customized by Li Fubo, he only got it the day before departure, and today is his first show.

  Master Li’s special equipment is not at the same level as the high-end ones used by this person. As soon as the opponent straightened up, he felt a cold and pain below—

  Egg burst with one arrow!

  He Lingchuan's hard training should have some effect, besides, how could the accuracy be worse at such a short distance?

   The merchant couldn't stand still, and immediately fell to the ground and rolled, screaming heart-piercingly.

  But He Lingchuan's insidiousness doesn't stop there? There is still a rope behind the sleeve arrow.

  He just pulled it lightly, paji—

broken.

  The man stopped screaming, and immediately passed out.

  The feeling of stabbing people in the back is so cool, the Martial Arts Hall in Panlong City doesn't allow him to use such a destructive weapon at all. He Lingchuan let out a breath, and turned to find his next opponent, the one who was fighting with Shan Youjun.

   Not only did this person respond quickly, he immediately suppressed his discomfort with the stench and went into battle, he was also very brave, he fought head-on with Shan Youjun twice, and sparks flew everywhere in the darkness.

  He Lingchuan just went up and kicked him, aiming at the old gap in his saber style, and kicked this person directly in the ribs!

  With the strength of his feet, even a copper cake would be rounded, let alone a human body?

   This person felt a pain in his ribs, his body went numb, his eyes went dark, and he almost lost his breath.

  Shan Youjun made another knife and took the opportunity to chop off his head.

   As soon as the last enemy reached him with a thrust, he was blocked by He Lingchuan. Seeing that his two companions had already fallen, but his opponent was not injured at all, he turned his head and ran away without wanting to fight.

  Among the three, he was not the most powerful, but he must have been the fastest runner. He rushed out two steps and supported the wall with one hand, directly crossed the courtyard and turned into another alley.

  He arrived in Xinhuang earlier than the two, and was more familiar with the terrain.

   Taking the time to look back, it seems that no one is chasing.

   Hurry back and report the news, there is something tricky here. When the big troops arrive, he will chop off the heads of these guys and kick them as balls.

  But just as he was about to run away, suddenly there was a wind in the back of his head, and a knife flew from the sky, directly piercing his heart.

  The chest goes in from the back, and the heart goes out from the front.

  The man staggered two steps forward before falling to the ground and dying.

  I have already entered the alley, how can I miss this big knife? He looked unbelievable.

  He Lingchuan recovered the Zijin Xiujian first, and then followed to draw the sword.

  This arrow is stained with dirt, so it is not usable for the time being. Shan Youjun, who was following behind, was also a little surprised. He had just seen his boss throwing a long knife, while the enemy had already climbed over the wall and left. As a result, the knife turned in mid-air and changed directions to chase him.

  He had heard of arrows, throwing knives, or other magic tools that could chase people, but he hadn't heard that long knives also had this special effect.

  He Lingchuan pulled out the treasured sword from the back of the dying enemy, wiped the blood on his clothes, and put the sword back into its sheath.

  Of course, the characteristic of piercing the chest of the fleeing enemy comes from the characteristic of Fushengdao, which is "sure to hit with one throw". He Lingchuan felt that this was better than archery.

   "Let's go back." The enemy didn't even spare the two of them who went to the latrine, let alone He Chunhua.

  But He Lingchuan is not too worried. Dad also has a cultivation level and a lot of magic weapons for protection. It is not so easy for others to deal with him.

  The two hurried back, and just arrived at the entrance of the alley, there was a loud noise from the east, and the fire illuminated the whole Xinhuang!

  The explosion was so powerful that the ground under everyone's feet trembled violently.

  He Lingchuan's face changed even more:

  The restaurant where the county magistrate entertained Mo Zhe Jingxuan seems to be in that direction!

  In the noodle restaurant, He Chunhua and two merchants were chatting casually, both of them were a little absent-minded.

  The explosion exploded suddenly, and the shopkeeper who just picked up the water basin sprinkled it all at once, holding onto the pillar so as not to fall.

  He Chunhua, Mao Tao and Jiao Tai subconsciously turned their heads.

  The two merchants then grabbed their weapons and violently launched an attack.

  However, they had only reached three feet in front of He Chunhua, when a thin layer of light curtain suddenly appeared in front of him, with fine patterns on the surface, like snake skin.

  Their attacks immediately became sluggish, as if trapped in mud.

   This is He Chunhua's magic weapon that takes effect automatically.

  Jiao Tai knew something was wrong as soon as he turned his head, and rushed to protect the Lord with a shout of "Dare".

  He Chunhua threw the red silk thread wrapped in his hand forward, and it expanded into a net in midair, wrapping an enemy in it.

  Sun Fuping's magic weapon is easy to use at any time.

  At this moment, the windshield curtain was lifted suddenly, and everyone was startled, but saw He Lingchuan and the two rushing in, and said, "Three were dealt with outside!"

   There is no suspense in the future, the five of them forced the opponent to single out, and beat him to the ground in minutes.

  Jiao Tai beat him half to death, He Chunhua had already lifted the net on the ground, and said to the prisoner inside: "Be clear, what's going on outside?"

  The man laughed loudly: "Your chief officer is going to ascend to heaven! My brothers are here, and I want to send you with me!"

  He Chunhua and his son looked at each other, and then asked: "How do you know when the food transportation team will pass here?" The food transportation team notified Xinhuang to prepare, only one day in advance. These rangers from Xunzhou were patrolling around the north-central part of Xiazhou. The area was so vast that they shouldn't have gotten wind of it so quickly.

  The man grinned grimly and didn't answer.

   "He wants to delay time." He Lingchuan saw through his intention at a glance, "Let's go back to the camp!"

  Jiao Tai wiped the captive's neck with a knife, ignoring the trembling shopkeeper holding the pillar, He Lingchuan didn't forget to throw down a dozen copper coins as meal money. Five people ran out of the restaurant, untied the horses of the three Xunzhou spies, and flew on the horses.

  …

  Five people, three horses, ran for less than a hundred feet when they heard the sound of hooves:

   There is a team coming from the south, at least two or three hundred riders!

   "Drive!" He Chunhua's face changed color, urging the mount to run fast.

  The horse turned out of the main street and went straight to the grain transport team camp. He Lingchuan turned his head and saw a black mass of cavalry behind him.

  These people tore off their coats and cloaks to reveal the military uniforms underneath. Even if He Lingchuan had never seen that style before, he could be sure that the person who came was the Xunzhou Ranger.

   Obviously these guys have been lurking outside Xinhuang for a long time, and when there is an explosion in the town, they will rush in to kill people and rob food!

   Oops, it’s almost the end of the month, so ask for a monthly pass.
