Chapter 524: Blood light
Chapter 524 Blood Light
"My son, wake up!"
"Waterfall!"
Some servants called out anxiously.
Xu Mingshi, who was deeply in a dream, suddenly opened his eyes. Although his mind was not fully awake, the word "walking water" was printed in his mind, which was enough to make him instinctively sit up immediately.
The window paper was reddened by the fire light, and the scorching smell had penetrated in.
hurriedly grabbed a coat and put it on, the two entourage guarded the boy and left the bedroom.
The moment he stepped out of the room, Xu Mingshi looked at the fierce fire ahead and quickly asked, "Is anyone in that room?!"
"Don’t worry, son, it’s just a utility room, no one is there!"
Xu Mingshi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately doubts came to his mind: "Since no one is living, how can there be a fire suddenly..."
Not to mention that there was just a heavy rain in the evening, and it was still wet everywhere. The fire was burning so vigorously, it would make people feel strange...
The fire licked the damp eaves and made a "sizzling" sound. The burning gas mixed with the heavy smell of damp things being ignited was particularly pungent, and the black smoke rose up, making people almost unable to open their eyes.
Although there is no one in the utility room, it is connected to several other houses. In addition, this is Xu Mingshi’s residence. In the yard next door, the town’s prince lives. In order to prevent the fire from spreading, guards The soldiers were busy carrying water to fight the fire.
"quick!"
Looking at the people walking back and forth in the noisy and busy courtyard, Xu Mingshi didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes changed suddenly.
This fire...I'm afraid someone deliberately caused it!
——Grandfather!
The boy quickly stepped down the stone steps and ran out of the yard.
Two followers hurried to keep up.
Xu Mingshi obviously wanted to go to the next courtyard, but was stopped halfway.
Under the light of the fire, there was a weird orange-red all around.
"I'm going to see my grandfather!" Xu Mingshi recognized Jin Yi, and hurriedly said: "The strangeness of this fire, I am afraid that someone deliberately distracted me and wanted to take the opportunity to disadvantage my grandfather!"
Looking at the little boy with an eager look, Jin Yi's eyes flashed with relief, and said, "My son, take a moment to rest, and just wait here with peace of mind."
"Why don't you let me pass?" Xu Mingshi was anxious.
"This is the confession of Lieutenant Qin." Jin Yi seemed to point out: "There is Lieutenant Qin by the father of the country, and the son only needs to ensure his own safety."
Facing these eyes, Xu Mingshi gradually calmed down.
He roughly understands...
Even though he was very uneasy, he knew that this is not the time to go and add chaos.
While the flames stirred, the boy looked in the direction of the next courtyard.
"How come it suddenly burnt..."
Outside the hall, two soldiers guarding the door from left to right are also looking at the direction of the fire.
The other soldier frowned slightly: "It shouldn't be..."
Halfway through the conversation, his eyes suddenly changed.
The sound of firefighting was mixed and noisy, and most of the sound from the roof tiles was obscured, but after a short while, a dark shadow fell from the sky.
"There are assassins!"
The soldier shouted and drew his sword to block it.
The visitor was holding a bow and crossbow, and when he flew down, he had sent two cold arrows to the soldiers.
"Watch out!"
The two of them hid, one of them was worthy of avoiding, and the other was not hurt to the vital point, but the small arrow still scratched the arm.
This pain is not too strong for the soldiers who have been battle-tested, but the weird thing is that after the arm is bruised, the numbness quickly spread to all parts of the body!
"Clang!"
The long sword in the soldier's hand fell uncontrollably. Seeing the assassin attacked again, another person rushed to protect his companion.
At this moment, there was a sound of "cang", and suddenly the window frame was knocked open!
Once the window lattice was knocked open from the outside, even if two dark shadows jumped in, the two of them had a clear goal. One of them first released a cold arrow in the dark and went straight to the direction of the bed!
However, when the short arrow was approaching the bed net, it was blocked by the wide-backed sword that suddenly appeared——
"Who would dare to assassinate the general!" Qin Wugao shouted, attacking the opponent with a big knife in his hand with murderous aura.
The man in black shrank his pupils and leaned back to avoid.
"Bang!"
The knife brought the screen down and made a loud noise.
Yun Liu also flashed out from the darkness, cutting off one of them with a long knife in his hand.
At this moment, another group of people in black rushed in from outside the hall!
In a chaotic struggle, Qin Wu and Yun Liu were unable to cope with the defeat, and asked one of the men in black to take the opportunity to raise a long sword and stab them on the couch!
The sharp blade stabbed, but there was no feeling of touching flesh and blood——
The man in black immediately picked up the soft quilt, and it was only then that there were two pillows in the raised quilt!
Surprised and angry appeared in the pupils of the man in black, and said to his companion: "No one on the bed! It's the trick!"
Hearing this voice, Qin Wu and Yun Liu both showed unexpected expressions.
This is Lizu language!
These assassins turned out to be Lis?!
"Someone has been staring at it, Xu Qiwei will never leave this yard! He will definitely still be here, find them for me!"
"If you don't take Xu Qiwei's life today, you will not retreat!"
"Kill this dog thief, death is worth it!"
Several people in black spoke in Li ethnic language, with deep hatred in their tone, and even if they noticed Zhong Ji, they did not back down.
Several people got out of the window lattice while talking.
Yun Liu saw this and nodded to Qin Wu.
Qin Wu immediately took out the bone whistle and blew.
The whistle is a sign, and Jin Yi will lead people to surround the entire yard after hearing the sound——
When several people talked to King Yan about military rumors in the evening, they already had a defensive heart, but they did not expect that it would come so fast, and everything happened tonight!
When he heard that there was a fire in the next courtyard, he immediately became suspicious, and moved the general to another place.
Now such an arrangement, deliberately slack off defense, it is for the purpose of tactics to attract these people to show up-sooner or later, it is better to control it with one move, so as to save another twists and turns!
At this time, the snake has emerged from the hole and showed its true face, so there is nothing to wait and see any longer!
"These people are extremely harsh in their words, and they don't mean to flee without seeing the slightest error. They will never give up if they fail to achieve their goals. You must protect the general!" Yun Liu said to Qin Wu.
Qin Wu nodded and strode out.
The dozen or so people in black roamed around the courtyard quickly, like black hounds frantically looking for their prey.
Suddenly, a Lizu language sounded——
"People are here!"
In a study room directly opposite the bedroom, the man in black just rushed in, but quickly flew out, uttered a scream, and fell heavily under the stone steps.
Wang Yan Wang Tijian, wearing a sluggish short fight, emerged from the darkness and blocked the door.
Xu Yun also held a knife in his hand. He was guarding in front of the low couch at this time, but the knife in his hand was squeezed in front of him - nothing else, the old man's knife was too heavy to be lifted.
At this time, several people in black have come over, sniffing the smell.
