Vol 3 Chapter 575: assassin

The rain was torrential, thunder and thunder bursts, and the roof was crackled by raindrops. Huberwen looked anxious and asked, "Hou Ye, what did they see?"
Qi Ning sighed: "If I knew it, I wouldn't have to worry so much."
Hu Bowen glanced out of the door, his body slightly sideways, and whispered: "Hou Ye, if he is killed by an acquaintance, he is also very capable. Even if the three guards see the acquaintance, they don't take care of the other party. The other side killed them by surprise, but if there is no great martial arts, and you want to kill three people in an instant, and the three have no resistance, it is also extremely difficult. "
Qi Ning nodded slightly and whispered: "What did Master Hu think of?"
Hu Bowen smiled bitterly: "Hou Ye, you are intimate about Xiaguan, and Xiaguan also said something out of your heart. You also know that the emperor had just ascended the throne, and the political situation was not stable. It is also unwilling to be under pressure. Both sides move independently, and each department has their people inserted in it. Our ritual department is Qingshui Yamen, which is still quiet! "
Qi Ning sighed and did not speak.
"The mission of Dong Qi this time is the emperor's meaning, but some people may not agree with the will of the emperor." Hu Bowen sighed softly and said with emotion: "As for our mission, it may not be all up and down."
"Oh?" Qi Ning smiled: "Sir Hu also sees the problem?"
Hu Bowen whispered: "I don't hide Houye. After the clerk knew that it was Wu Dalin's team leader, he felt a little nervous. This Wu Dalin was transferred from the Tiger God Camp to the frontier because of General Qi's participation in impeachment. The government is somewhat festive. Xiaguan is only worried that because of old complaints, this team leader Wu might have some trouble on the way. "
Qi Ning said softly: "Master Hu only said that there are not many masters in the mission who can kill three people in a row. Is Wu Dalin also among them?"
Hu Bowen thought for a while, and then said: "Xiaguan does not dare to guess wildly. However, after he knew that Wu Dalin was the team leader, he also carefully inquired. Wu Dalin's kung fu is indeed not weak. Status. If he is surprised, even killing three people is highly likely. "Suddenly, whispered:" But Liang Xiong's martial arts are not weak, and should be able to do it. "
Qi Ning frowned: "Master Hu suspects Liang Xiong?"
"That's not true." Huber Wen waved his hand. "Xiaguan is only aware that there are only two of them who can kill three people in the mission, and they are the leader and deputy leader of the mission. The three guards will certainly not be prepared. However, Liang Xiong is a veteran of Yulin Camp, and his temperament is quite open-minded. Xiaguan does not think he will have any changes. "
Qi Ning thought about it, Hu Bowen hesitated before whispering: "Hou Ye, you have to be more careful yourself, if someone really comes in, it may be harmful to Hou Ye."
Qi Ning said with a smile: "Someone cares about Master Hu. Master Hu, you get tired while on the way. You should go back to rest first so as not to lose your energy tomorrow."
Huberwen got up and arched his hands, sighed and retreated.
Just after Hu Bowen left his forefoot, Liang Xiong's voice came from the door: "Hou Ye, there is something wrong with a humble job!"
Qi Ning ordered him to come in. Liang Xiong was covered in rain and bowed forward: "Hou Ye, the village has been inspected inside and outside, and there is no trace of anyone sneaking in. Leader Wu sent an additional guard to guard himself. The goods, he let the humble people lead around the house of Hou Ye, beware of assassins. "
Qi Ning nodded slightly, looked at Liang Xiong, and finally said: "Liang Xiong, when the accident happened, do you know where Team Leader Wu is?"
Liang Xiong was hesitant and hesitated before saying: "Hou Ye, after entering the village, he arranged guards. He was worried about the omissions of his job, so he went to check it everywhere. At that time, he did not pay attention to Leader Wu. He might be resting in the house.
Qi Ning said: "I don't have to worry about it here. Deputy Leader Liang, Master Hu should be guarded strictly. You can take someone to guard there. Don't let Master Hu have a pool."
Liang Xiong stunned, but still said: "Humble and obedient." Without saying much, he turned and went out.
The night rain was pouring, and Qi Ning walked to the door. It was dim outside, and the rain was like fog, making it impossible for people to see the dots in the night.
The three guards were killed, which naturally caused a trace of commotion in the team. The death of these three people is strange. The soldiers thought that there was indeed an invasion of foreign enemies. They all played a spirit and were extremely cautious. In order to ensure foolproof, Wu Dalinga He sent a manned night watch. At the beginning, there were only twenty or thirty people. After the incident, he directly doubled the manpower.
Qi Ning thought that Xia Yu was coming fast and should not be slow, but the rain seemed to pour out the anger that had accumulated for a long time-out, for several hours in a row, the village road was already full of stagnant water.
In the middle of the night, suddenly heard a cry of exclamation, Qi Ning quickly reacted, rushed out of the door, and ran past the sound, only to see more than a dozen figures are now running in the same direction, to a house Before, Qi Ning frowned, and immediately recognized that it was the house where Hu Bowen lived.
His face sank, he rushed into the door, and he came across head-on, almost hitting his arms. Fortunately, Qi Ning responded quickly, flashing sideways, and his hand caught the man. It was Liang Xiong. Liang Xiong turned his head to see Qi Ning, anxious. Dao: "Hou Ye, Master Hu, Master Hu!" The expression was horrified, but he was speechless for a while.
Qi Ning said in a deep voice: "What's wrong with Master Hu?"
"Master Hu, Master Hu was assassinated." Liang Xiong finally spit out, raised his hand and pointed to the inside room, "Just right inside!"
Qi Ningfei stepped into the back room, only to see that there were two Yulin samurai in his hand holding a saber, and they waited in strict array. Qi Ning just entered, and the two blades pointed over. Seeing that it was Qi Ning, he hurriedly closed the knife and bowed: Lord! "
Qi Ning had already seen it at this time. Hu Bowen was sitting on an old chair, his face pale and dull, and his forehead was covered with sweat. Qi Ning's expression was slow, and he went forward and asked, "Master Hu, are you?"
When Hu Bowen heard Qi Ning's voice, he finally recovered and smiled bitterly: "Hou Ye, Xiaguan Xiaguan almost won't see you!" Turning his head, he looked at the rear window, and Qi Ningshun looked at him, only to see By the time the rear window had been opened, it was raining heavily, and a burst of cold wind rushed in through the rain.
Liang Xiong had also come in at this time, and said: "Hou Ye, the assassin sneaked in from the rear window, intending to assassinate Lord Hu. Fortunately, Lord Hu shouted in time, we rushed in immediately, and the man escaped from the rear window."
Qi Ning frowned and asked, "How many guards are there?"
Liang Xiong said: "The humble office obeyed Hou Ye's instructions and personally brought four brothers to guard here, and the two were outside the door. Two other brothers and I were guarding the main hall inside the house. Hearing the call of Master Hu from the house Sound, the humble office first rushed in, just to see the man escaped from the back window, the humble office immediately followed out to chase, but the man was extremely fast, and the outside was heavy and rainy, the humble office was incompetent, but he was escaped. "
At this time, footsteps were heard, Qi Ning turned back, and saw Wu Dalin stepping forward, and there was dripping rain all over him. He saw Huber Wen, who was sitting in a chair, frowning and asked, "Master Hu, you can see what the assassin looks like. ? "
Huber Wen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The officer was lying on the bed, thinking that three people had been killed before, and he couldn't fall asleep. He was confused and felt that the room was suddenly cold. He turned his head and looked at it. Opened, a shadow came in from the window, and the officer knew that it was an assassin. If he didn't want to, he immediately shouted. "He raised his hand, wiped his forehead with cold sweat, and continued:" Fortunately, Liang Xiong responded in time, from the door When the outside rushed in, the assassin didn't seem to think that I was not asleep. As soon as I yelled, he immediately fled the window and escaped. When Deputy Leader Liang came in, he just saw the assassin and followed him out! " , Cold sweat was coming out of his forehead.
Wu Dalin saw Liang Xiong and asked, "Deputy Leader Liang, did you send someone on duty behind this house?"
Liang Xiongdao said: "The humble office only thought there was a guard at the front door. The few of us are also in the main hall. No one would dare to sneak in. But this is the negligence of the humble office. I also asked Hou Ye and Wu to lead the punishment!"
Qi Ning said: "Team Wu, this can't blame Vice Leader Liang, it's really an assassin's boldness." Looking at Huber Wen said: "Master Hu, are you in good health?"
Huber Wen waved his hand: "Houye don't have to worry, the assassin immediately ran away when he heard the movement, but he failed to succeed, and the officer was not injured." Waving: "It's okay, Team Wu, you still send someone around to do it again. After searching again, the life of Xiaguan is no problem. Never let the assassin approach Hou Ye. "
Wu Dalin arched and said: "Sir Hu ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is a humiliating dereliction of duty. He is guilty of death. He will immediately send someone to search for an assassin." Do n’t miss a place around Master Hu ’s and Hou Ye ’s houses.
Liang Xionggong said yes, and went out one by one with Wu Dalin.
When everyone went out, only Hu Bowen and Qi Ning were left in the house. Hu Bowen got up, walked to the door, and looked outside. Then he closed the door and turned back to the room. His expression was cold and abnormal, and he whispered: "Hou Lord, Xiaguan Xiaguan actually recognized the assassins, but it was not easy to speak in public. "
Qi Ning froze, frowning: "Really recognized the assassin?"
Huber Wen said: "Although the assassin fled in a hurry, but my body movements are still fresh, I will never admit the wrong person." His eyes were cold and whispered: "Hou Ye, you guessed right, Wu Dalin is big The problem, it is Wu Dalin who went to the room to assassinate the officer! "
Qi Ning was shocked, and said with horror: "Really he?"
"Xiaguan will never admit the wrong person." Hu Bowen whispered: "He just thought that Xiaguan had fallen asleep, so he sneaked in from the rear window. Fortunately, Xiaguan was half asleep and half awake, otherwise he is now dead under his knife. "
