203 The truth of ants(1/2)
Is the visitor a friend or an enemy?
The next moment, Chang Suining got the answer from the direction in which the cold arrow flew.
The arrow went straight towards the leading man in black who was about to attack her, and the man in black was also very alert. When the arrow came close to his side, his expression changed and he immediately raised his knife to block it.
"when!"
The arrow hit the back of the knife, making a sound with aftershocks, and at the same time, the man in black subconsciously retreated.
At this moment, Chang Suining threw out the long knife in his hand and struck the bottom of the handle with his palm. The long knife suddenly flew out, piercing the rain and fog, and flew away.
The sharp blade stabbed the man in black on the right shoulder, causing him to stumble back in pain. A Changfu guard took the opportunity to catch him and put the knife across his neck.
Chang Suining: "I want to live——"
The reason why her knife struck the opponent's shoulder where he was holding the knife was just to remove the opponent's attack without damaging his life.
At this time, the man who had shot arrows to help also appeared. The man drew his bow and shot several men in black, but the figure and facial features turned out to be a young woman.
Chang Suining was doubtful about the identity of the other party, but her life was at stake and defeating the enemy came first. She only took one look and then looked away, not allowing herself to get distracted.
Amidst the flash of swords and blood, she and Chang Ren exchanged glances, and Chang Ren nodded with her.
Continuing the fight is not the answer, the best option is to escape with the leader who was captured alive!
Just as Chang Ren and others were fighting and retreating, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came approaching, and a group of people came in the rain, about ten people, all wearing mysterious robes.
"How dare you openly cause chaos in the capital and capture all those men in black!"
The leading young man jumped off his horse and stepped forward with his sword drawn.
These people have extraordinary aura and skill. They are obviously not ordinary guards. Each of them is one to ten, extremely brave, and the phrase "take them all down" shows the style of an official. When those men in black were captured, the leader's heart was already in turmoil. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable,
It quickly disintegrated.
"No need to chase!" Chang Suining put the knife back into its scabbard and said to everyone.
The leading young man signaled to his subordinates not to pursue him. He quickly came to Chang Suining and asked nervously: "Ms. Chang, are you okay?"
Chang Suining's body and face were covered with blood, and she couldn't tell whether it was someone else's or her own, but her expression was the same and she didn't look hurt: "I'm fine, but Yuanxiang, why are you back?"
Yuan Xiang lowered his voice and explained: "I secretly returned to Beijing to help Mrs. Chang on the orders of the Grand Governor!"
Chang Sui Ning Wei was anxious to ask more questions, so he just nodded and said, "I'll tell you more after I leave here."
Yuan Xiang looked at the man in black who was being escorted and asked, "These people are openly committing assassinations. Should we send them to Dali Temple?"
"No need." Chang Sui Ning said, "I have other uses."
Nowadays, there is no Yao Yi in Dali Temple. Whether it is black or white depends entirely on the Holy Will. She can no longer be trusted to deliver anything.
And she already had a complete plan, and the sudden appearance of these men in black was not enough to make her change her original plan.
After Yuan Xiang agreed, he asked Chang Suining: "Do you want to clean this place?"
"It's not necessary." Chang Sui Ning said: "Just do a little processing, leave the carriage, leave the weapons with the Chang family's mark, create a situation where I was assassinated, kidnapped, and my whereabouts are unknown, and let the government investigate on their own.
.”
In this way, she could use her plan to make the victim's identity disappear for two days, which would be more convenient for her to implement her next plan.
"yes!"
An injured guard came forward, his voice a little hoarse: "Girl, two of us died."
Chang Suining looked at the corpses of the two subordinates who were carried over. After a moment, he said: "Help them exchange robes with those men in black and take their corpses back for burial someday."
"yes."
"Who ordered you?" Chang Suining looked at the man in black who was escorted in front of her.
The man in black whose shoulder was injured by her turned his head and did not answer. Just when he was about to grit his teeth, Chang Suining suddenly raised his hand and bent his elbow, hitting him hard on the cheek and jaw with her elbow.
"puff!"
The man in black was hit by the force and was dizzy. He turned his head and spit out a mouthful of blood, as well as a bloody tooth.
"You..." He looked angrily at the girl who suddenly made a move.
Chang Suining glanced at the teeth he spit out and said, "I'm sorry, I thought you had poison in your mouth, so I just wanted to bite the poison and commit suicide."
Before the man in black had time to speak, Chang Suining stuffed a pill into his mouth and pushed his lower jaw upwards, forcing him to swallow it.
The man in black had his arms restrained, and tried his best to cough it out but couldn't. His face turned red for a moment: "What did you give me to eat!"
"You didn't bring any poison, I just gave you one." Chang Suining looked at him: "This poison will kill you if there is no antidote within twelve hours. So, let me ask you again, who ordered you?
"
The face of the man in black changed: "I don't know who it is! We just collect money to do things!"
Chang Suining did not suspect that he was telling lies.
Possession of drugs is usually done by dead men. The behavior and skills of these people are indeed more like some killer organizations that collect money to do things and do not explore the identity of their employers.
She asked: "After that happens, where will you meet?"
The employer always has to make sure that the job is done, and the killer always gets the remainder of the salary.
"...in the Guandi Temple behind Chongye Square!"
Chang Suining: "How to meet?"
The man in black said: "Go and see me."
Yuan Xiang: "Whose head should I mention!"
Chang Suining: Obviously it belongs to her.
"You can't lift my head." Chang Suining glanced at the black-clothed corpses lying on the ground, "You can pick one you like from here and take it with you."
Man in black:"……"
Chang Sui Ning wants to see who wants her head so much.
She looked at the masked woman standing aside and asked invitingly: "Thank you for your help today. Do you want to go together?"
This was not the place to talk. In order to prevent the people in the Guandi Temple from getting the news of the failure quickly, she had to rush there immediately.
After hesitating for a moment, the woman nodded to her.
…
The Guandi Temple in Chongyefang has been abandoned for a long time, and beggars usually gather here.
However, due to the large number of refugees who gathered in the capital and wanted to complain, the security of the capital was affected. Emperor Shengzhi ordered people to drive out and arrest the beggars in the city under the pretext that "there are many fine works hidden among the refugees".
After being implicated and driven away, the Guandi Temple here became empty.
"Madam... people are here!"
A servant girl with a hat on her head was standing outside. When she saw a group of men in black walking in, she quickly returned to the temple to spread the word.
Sitting under the statue of Guan Sheng and waiting, the woman who was also covered with a power fence immediately stood up after hearing this and quickly asked: "Is it done or not?"
The maid lowered her voice: "It looks like it's done..."
The leader came with something in his hand!
The woman let out a hearty laugh from the depths of her throat: "The evil star is finally dead!"
She wanted to take a good look with her own eyes!
A group of five or six men in black walked in. The leader was someone they recognized. The man was injured on his shoulder and was covered in blood, but the woman didn't notice anything strange. Since he was going to kill people, it was normal for him to be injured.
The man in black was holding a heavy baggage in his left hand: "I brought the things back, where is the remaining silver?"
The servant woman said: "The money is of course yours, but you must inspect the goods first."
The man in black put the object in his hand on the altar table with a bang, untied the bundle, and revealed the square box. When the box was opened, a bloody human head appeared in front of him.
Under the power fence, the woman's eyes changed in shock, showing anger.
Although the servant woman was a little frightened when faced with this bloody scene, she still immediately asked: "...How dare you accept such a large amount of money, and end up acting like this? Where is the thing we really want!"
"Here it is."
A voice came from outside the temple, and then a man dressed as a young man walked in.
When the visitor crossed the threshold, he raised his hand and a dagger flew out of his hand, cutting off the power fence above the woman's head.
The woman who was dressed in low-key clothes and whose face was exposed was none other than Mrs. Chang, the wife of Duke Ying Guo.
Her eyes were filled with anger: "Chang Sui Ning...?!"
"It's Mrs. Chang." Chang Suining said: "Madam hired so many people just to take my head, which is quite generous."
But it is also obvious that the Ming family and the Ming Dynasty have eliminated the Chang family's minions, otherwise the other party would not have no one to use, and would have to hire assassins from outside.
Chang said sternly: "Someone, kill her for me!"
Someone did rush in, but it was Chang Ren Yuanxiang and the others.
They had already dealt with all the men brought by Mrs. Chang, and quickly restrained Mrs. Chang and her servants.
To be continued...
