Chapter 128 Good show
child time.
The iron door of the inner prison creaked, as if a skinny claw was scratching deep in the heart, making one's teeth ache.
Jin Zhu walked out of the door first, and more than 20 black-clad secret agents stood outside the door solemnly with their knives drawn.
He stood in front of the spy in a black suit and said expressionlessly, "In the battle of Mudan Bridge, our brothers suffered heavy losses. But this is what we do for a living. We kill the most vicious thieves and sleep with the most beautiful women in Red Dress Lane. Tonight, put your heads on your belts and follow me to make merit."
After that, he turned around and said to Xifeng, "Bring out Shopkeeper Yuan."
Manager Yuan had his hands and feet shackled with iron shackles as he staggered out of the inner prison. As he walked, blood oozed from the wound in his thigh that was pierced by the Pegasus arrow.
He stood outside the door, looking up with disheveled hair and face, greedily taking a few breaths of fresh air, and exclaimed: "It's so delicious!"
The Golden Pig put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "If you can capture the long whale tonight, you will never have to go back to the inner prison."
Shopkeeper Yuan laughed, and with his shackles on, he saluted and said, "Thank you for your good words, sir!"
The golden pig forced him onto the carriage.
Just as Chen Ji was about to get on the car, Jin Zhu turned back and stopped him: "You and Xifeng should follow outside tonight, don't get close."
Chen Ji was puzzled: "Master, you don't believe me?"
Jin Zhu was sitting in the carriage and was happy: "How could I not believe you? But the closer we get to the Jingchao thieves tonight, the more dangerous it will be. You haven't even started practicing yet, so you can't put yourself in danger."
He continued earnestly, "Tonight, if you find that the situation is not right, you must immediately find a place to hide. Don't, don't, don't do anything impulsive!"
When Chen Ji heard Jin Zhu say "tens of millions" three times, his expression suddenly became complicated: "Sir, if I'm not in the car, who will give you advice? I'm not afraid of danger."
The Golden Pig was slightly moved: "No, I appreciate your kindness, but you have just obtained the path to cultivation and cannot die."
After that, he lowered the curtain and shouted, "Let's go!"
The carriage drove slowly towards the East Market.
Chen Ji stood in front of the inner prison gate, silently watching the back of the car going farther and farther away. It was a good thing that Jin Zhu didn't want him to get close to danger, at least he didn't have to worry about being backstabbed at any time.
But he had originally planned to take advantage of the chaos tonight to kill Manager Yuan in order to avoid implicating Concubine Yun. Now he could only act according to circumstances.
While thinking.
Xifeng looked at Chen Ji and said, "Master Chen..., let's set off as well. We should follow the carriage far behind, so that we won't be unable to provide timely support if Master Jinzhu gets into danger."
Chen Ji glanced at him and said, "You and I are both pigeon-level spies, so you don't have to call me sir."
Xifeng smiled flatteringly and said, "With your intelligence and talent, it is only a matter of time before you are promoted to Hai Dongqing."
The next moment, he took out a copper whistle and blew it, and the spies dispersed in an instant and moved through the alley.
Xifeng was the only one left accompanying Chen Ji, but he could hear the other party blowing a bird's call from time to time, adjusting the formation of the spies and cross-covering the carriage's advance.
During the interval of command, Xifeng looked at Chen Ji with a sly look in his eyes: "What level is the cultivation method that the master gave you?"
Chen Ji glanced at him and said, "My Lord didn't tell me. If you want to know, you can go and ask my Lord yourself."
Xifeng shrank his neck and said, "I won't ask him. If I do, I will definitely get scolded."
As they were talking, the carriage in front suddenly accelerated and turned left on Park Lane.
Xifeng and Chen Ji glanced at each other, and Chen Ji said, "No, Manager Yuan said that he and Changjing had an appointment to meet at Caoyun Wharf at 1:00 p.m. tonight, but this is not the direction to Caoyun Wharf."
Xifeng asked, "What should we do?"
Chen Ji said, "Blow the copper whistle and ask Master Jinzhu."
Xifeng blew the whistle, but heard a whistle from the carriage. Xifeng looked serious and said, "My Lord asked me to follow you."
Chen Ji took a deep breath and said, "Listen to the adults."
The spies kept crisscrossing the alleys, chasing the carriage.
But before they could catch up, the carriage turned again and changed direction!
Everyone followed the carriage and kept speeding up. The spies were running breathlessly. It seemed that if they continued running like this, they would have no strength left by the time they reached their destination.
Chen Ji frowned and said, "Use the whistle to signal the lord to stop. We can't let that thief Jing Chao lead us by the nose any longer!"
The west wind blew a whistle, and this time only two brief bird calls were heard in the car.
Chen Ji asked in confusion: "I have been listening to you blowing the whistle. How can I tell what message the whistle conveys?"
Xifeng explained, "The copper whistle can learn three kinds of bird calls. The first is the magpie. One call means to summon and follow. Two calls mean to surround and ambush. Three calls mean to evacuate. Four calls mean to fuck him."
Chen Ji raised his eyebrows: "So emotional?"
Xifeng explained breathlessly, "This is my popular explanation. The second bird call is the bamboo partridge, and the number of calls represents different formations; the third bird call is the long cry of a falcon, and this whistle will only be blown in one situation, and that is when encountering an extremely dangerous person..."
Before he finished his words, he heard an eagle's cry from the alley ahead, as if a falcon was swooping down from the sky.
Chen Ji was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is it this kind of sound?"
Xifeng said, "That's the sound... Shit! Enemy attack!"
On the cold and solemn bluestone street, the stone pavement was smooth enough to reflect the moon. On the stone pavement, a long halberd was reflected, shooting from the roof of the pavilion, as if it had pierced through the moon.
With a humming sound, the long spear crossed the sky and pierced through the carriage. With a loud bang, the wooden carriage broke into pieces and turned into debris all over the sky!
when!
After the halberd smashed the carriage, it was nailed to the bluestone road, and the wooden pole was still shaking.
With debris flying all over the sky, Golden Pig and Shopkeeper Yuan flew out of the car, one on the left and one on the right, and fell to the ground.
Xifeng exclaimed, "Sir!" He was about to step forward to rescue, but saw several masked assassins jumping out from the roof and shooting out the halberds in their hands at the same time. Although they were not as terrifying as the first halberd, they blocked the routes for all the spies to come for support.
Chen Ji pulled Xifeng into the corner and looked towards the place where the first halberd came from. He saw a masked man standing on the roof of the building with several halberds tied with hemp rope on his back.
The man knocked his heel backwards and hit the end of a halberd. The halberd shot out from behind him and landed in his hand.
The next moment, the halberd flew out of his hand.
With a buzzing sound, the long halberd was not aimed at the golden pig, but went straight to the chest and abdomen of Shopkeeper Yuan! The other party wanted to kill the seriously injured Shopkeeper Yuan first to silence him!
At the critical moment, the golden pig rolled and crawled to the side of Shopkeeper Yuan, grabbed the other's collar and pulled him hard.
The long spear that was originally intended to nail Manager Yuan between his chest and abdomen pierced through his calf and was nailed to the ground.
"Ah!" Shopkeeper Yuan wailed.
The Golden Pig said angrily: "Why are you howling? You still counted on your colleagues to save you. Now it's not me, the Secret Service, who wants to kill you, but your colleagues!"
Shopkeeper Yuan trembled and said, "Save me! Master Jinzhu, save me!"
In an instant, Xifeng shouted, "Master, be careful!"
Golden Pig suddenly turned sideways, and saw a long spear whistling in the wind, passing by in front of him, and with a bang, it was nailed into the stone road behind him.
He roared: "Tianma, this person is a master of the Seeking Dao Realm. If you don't take action, I will die!"
But this time, there was no brilliant meteor shower streaking across the night sky.
The route was changed temporarily, causing Tianma to wait in vain.
The Golden Pig gritted his teeth, stood up and jumped onto the pavilion, rushing towards the man on the second floor: "Xifeng, go help the other brothers and delay until Pegasus arrives!"
Chen Ji hid in the corner, observing the battlefield silently.
The flying halberds were intertwined on the bluestone road. Manager Yuan took a deep breath and pulled the halberd off his leg.
He gritted his teeth and climbed up, using the halberd in his hand to support his body, and when no one was paying attention to him, he limped into the alley!
Chen Ji slowly retreated into the shadows and chased in the direction where Shopkeeper Yuan fled.
He kept walking back and forth in the alley until he heard heavy breathing coming from the next corner, and then he suddenly stopped.
Chen Ji listened to the panting sound getting closer and closer, until...
He suddenly rushed out of the alley and hit hard with his shoulder.
With a clang, the halberd fell to the ground, and Shopkeeper Yuan was knocked to the ground by the impact.
Chen Ji looked at the other person quietly, but saw Manager Yuan lying on the ground motionless.
Fake death?
No, it's not a fake death.
Chen Ji looked carefully and saw that Manager Yuan's face had turned black and he looked like he was on the verge of death.
There was actually poison on the halberd just now!
He picked up the halberd from the ground and walked towards Manager Yuan step by step. Just when he was about to raise the halberd for another blow, he suddenly stopped.
wrong.
He always felt something was wrong.
Chen Ji slowly put away his halberd, leaned against the wall and said, "It's really cowardly to die in the hands of your own people. In your next life, remember not to be a member of the Jing Dynasty."
At this moment, he raised his head and looked around, only to find that Tianma had appeared at some point and was standing on the eaves of the wall above his head, looking down at him silently.
Chen Ji was shocked.
Tianma didn't say hello to him, but jumped down the wall lightly, took out a pill from his sleeve and stuffed it into Manager Yuan's mouth.
After just a few breaths, Manager Yuan's breathing gradually became heavy, and even the black color on his face quickly faded, turning rosy.
There were messy footsteps, and Jin Zhu limped into the alley, squatted beside Shopkeeper Yuan and lifted him up by the collar: "How dare you do something to me?"
Shopkeeper Yuan woke up slowly: "Please spare my life, sir!"
The Golden Pig was about to punch him in the face, but Pegasus caught his fist.
He looked up and Tianma shook his head silently.
Jin Zhu's expression changed several times, and finally he looked down at Shopkeeper Yuan: "The people of Jing Dynasty now want you dead more than we do. In this big world, where else can you stay? Tell me, are you willing to cooperate with us?"
Shopkeeper Yuan hurriedly said, "Yes! Yes!"
Jin Zhu asked in a serious tone: "Who is Chang Jing?"
"I really do not know!"
Chen Ji watched this scene silently and let out a breath.
Until this moment, he was finally certain that everything that happened tonight was just a show directed and performed by the Secret Service.
Although the assassin's halberd was sharp, no spy died except for Manager Yuan; the first halberd had a chance to kill Jin Zhu, but it flew right through the middle of the carriage; Jin Zhu was so afraid of death, and had obviously fallen to the Xiantian realm, but he dared to fight against a master of the Xundao realm...
Every detail reveals weirdness.
But the most crucial detail is this: Xifeng said that one bird call means to call and follow, two calls mean to surround and ambush, three calls mean to evacuate, and four calls mean to fuck them.
The Golden Pig responded to the whistle for the second time in the car, clearly two times.
