Chapter 177, Chapter 178
In Ruda Castle, Gundeyar warmly received Xie Feng and others.
In the dining room, everyone devoured the meat. Although everyone had a hearty meal of horse meat at noon, there was a lack of seasonings at that time, so they could only simply roast it over a firewood before eating it. But now everyone can finally have a normal meal.
It’s time to eat, no matter what the image is.
Xie Feng held a piece of beef roasted with fine salt in both hands, chewing it until his mouth was full of oil, and did not bother to wipe it off. The owner of Rudaburg, Gundyar, sneered at Xie Feng's image, but after all, he was a guest.
They are also serving the country, and it is not convenient for me to say anything.
Suddenly, Xie Feng seemed to remember something and said to Gundeyar: "By the way, sir, how is the defense in this castle?"
Gundyar was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Don't worry, there are nearly 0 soldiers stationed in the castle, and there are at least 50 guards patrolling the castle around the clock. As long as you stay in the castle, no one can
Hurt you - of course, I can't control you after you leave the castle."
Xie Feng knew that Gundeyar was a standard scum when he was in the game, so he was prepared for such a contemptuous answer, so he said: "Sir, I wonder if we can let the number of guards patrol tonight
Reduce it by more than half? Also, send me into a room with great fanfare?"
Gundeyar was dissatisfied. He originally treated Xie Feng as a simple human being and did not respect Xie Feng as a mercenary. Now Xie Feng actually made such incomprehensible demands to him. Gundeyar
Said: "I'm sorry, we always pay attention to organizational discipline. I will not change the military arrangements in the castle for no special reason. In addition, the room prepared for you is in front of the Chai House. After dinner, I will ask the soldiers to take you there. I will also
I have official business to attend to, so I won't be able to send you off respectfully."
Xie Feng had known that Gangdeyar would answer like this, so he took out five gold coins and put them on the table and said: "Sir, I really have some personal issues to solve. It would be more convenient if the number of guards is smaller... Five hundred here
The dinar is regarded as a little gift from me to the guarding soldiers, and I hope that you will be willing to grant it to me - when I return to Sageson, I will definitely praise you to His Majesty the King and His Royal Highness the Princess."
Gundyar blew out a stream of cold air from his nostrils and ignored Xie Feng.
Xie Feng wisely took out five more gold coins and added them to the original five gold coins, saying: "You have done a great job and worked hard. This is my small tribute."
Gundyar's nostrils spurted out a stream of cold air again, but it was much "warmer" than before.
Xie Feng understood and took out five gold coins again and said: "Thanks to your great blessing, our food and lodging are finally secured tonight. I, Xie Feng, am not an ignorant person. This is a small thing to thank you for your hospitality."
.”
At this time, Gangdeyar's face finally looked better. He smiled and patted Xie Feng on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xie Feng, you are just saying this. We all serve the country at the same time. We should be more accommodating and mutually beneficial."
Help is what it takes." As he said that, he quietly swept the fifteen gold coins on the table into his pocket.
After dinner, Gundeyar personally sent Xie Feng and others to the guest room ceremoniously. According to Xie Feng's request, Gundeyar assigned a relatively remote room to Xie Feng himself, and then secretly ordered that
The guards on patrol tonight relaxed their vigilance and gave half of them a day off.
After a while, two guards carried a big box and knocked on Xie Feng's door. They said to Xie Feng: "At this time, Lord Gangdeyar gave you a gift." Xie Feng smiled and nodded, letting him know.
After the guards carried the box in, they paid each of them 10 dinars and sent them out.
Close the door... Oh, no, after locking the door, Xie Feng came to the box excitedly, opened the box with excitement, and looked at the things in the box. The corners of Xie Feng's mouth curved in a strange way.
Time passed by minute by second, and the cry of night owls echoed in the wilderness, and several guards standing on the sentry tower also began to yawn. And at the moment when the guard yawned with his eyes closed, a black streak appeared.
The shadow suddenly flashed out of a darkness, passed under a firelight, and then flashed into another darkness. When the guard opened his eyes again, he was still calm as if nothing had happened.
Xie Feng was lying quietly on the bed at this time, closing his eyes to rest. Although he was very tired now, he still didn't dare to fall asleep because he knew that tonight at the latest, the assassin would come to him again. Since he
If he wants to assassinate him, then he should create an opportunity for him to lure the snake out of the hole - this is why Xie Feng wants Gundeyar to reduce the number of guards.
At this time, the door was ajar, and a little moonlight slipped into the dim room through the crack in the door. This was not because Xie Feng was afraid of intentionally opening the door to let the assassin in - Xie Feng knew that no assassin would choose to do so in such a situation.
He came in directly from the door - at least that's what Xie Feng thought. The door was open, mainly to let in light, and to facilitate his escape in case he couldn't defeat the opponent. He had fought against the assassin last night, and the opponent's fighting ability was
He is definitely not inferior to himself, so to capture this assassin, you need to use some brains.
Soon, a dark cloud blew past, covering up the moonlight. The bright moonlight coming in from the window suddenly stopped, and the room suddenly became dark. At the same time, a soft "click" sound sounded. The sound was very soft, and very quickly,
Ordinary people might not notice it at all, but Xie Feng is not an ordinary person.
he came!
Xie Feng concluded in his heart that this dark cloud was unusually large and drifted unusually slowly. Such a long period of darkness would be enough for any qualified assassin to sneak into any ordinary room.
Xie Feng listened carefully. The sound of the other party opening the window was almost inaudible. If Xie Feng hadn't been prepared for it, he might not have been able to hear it.
"Click, click..." The sound of opening the window lock was extremely subtle. Xie Feng had to concentrate very highly to catch it. Xie Feng began to admire this assassin, at least he couldn't do it so lightly.
He was very lighthearted, and as for his teacher Sher... given his character, he would probably just break through the window and get caught off guard.
Xie Feng listened carefully to the movement outside the window and evaluated it. After a while, the sound seemed to be that the window lock had been unlocked and the window was being pushed open. The piercing friction sound as imagined did not sound.
It is estimated that this assassin has already greased the window mortar - he is really a careful and cautious assassin. If he is not his enemy but a companion... well, he will not need to assassinate anyone in the future.
The dark clouds hadn't dispersed yet, and the room was still completely dark, with no one visible. Xie Feng could only judge the assassin's next move through the sound.
"Sha..." Well, I guess the assassin has already entered the room. There was no sound of footsteps when he landed. If it weren't for the soft stuff like cotton padding on the soles of his shoes, it would be because the assassin himself had very little control over his strength. Fortunately,
Xie Feng had already sprinkled some fine sand under the window in advance, so that he could tell whether the assassin had entered the room through the subtle sound of the sand rubbing against the ground. Since the assassin has come in now, well...
Xie Feng had been holding a hemp rope in his hand, and now he pulled hard!
"Pa! Sha..."
A thick wooden board suddenly fell from the top of the window and just blocked the window. At the same time, a handful of lime powder was thrown down, the smoke powder immediately filled the air, and a slight scream was heard.
He was hit! Xie Feng immediately pulled another hemp rope, and a weird "whoosh" sound sounded from the ground, and he quickly moved closer to the assassin's position. That was the rope loop Xie Feng arranged on the ground, but
If there is an accident, this rope loop can be put on the assassin's foot... I mean, if there is no accident.
"Bang!" The sound of the rope being tightened sounded, and it was obvious that nothing was tied to it. At the same time, the dark clouds in the sky that obscured the moonlight had dispersed, and the moonlight penetrated through the door, adding a little brightness to the originally dark room. Thank you
Feng stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes to disperse a little lime dust in front of his eyes, and looked towards the assassin's position with wide eyes.
In the meantime, under the sparse moonlight reflection, a dark figure covered his face with one hand and touched the window with one hand, but all he touched was a thick wooden board.
Xie Feng immediately opened his pillow, took out a wooden stick from under the pillow, and knocked hard on the wall.
"Bang!" The harsh sound of a hard object hitting a metal piece echoed endlessly, and it was particularly clear in this quiet night. Immediately afterwards, Xie Feng picked up the wooden stick, rushed towards the black shadow, swung his hand, and used the wooden stick to
The stick hit the black shadow's head hard, and a sharp sound broke through the air.
Although the black figure's eyes were filled with lime powder and could not see, he did not panic too much. When he heard the sound of breaking through the air, he knew he was in danger, and then he bent his legs and paused.
"Bang!" The wardrobe against the wall was smashed into sawdust by Xie Feng, and the black figure rolled on the spot and fled to the side. At the same time, he twitched his waist with one hand, pulled out a bright dagger, and pointed it at
Xie Feng was on guard, while his other hand moved in the direction of the door.
How could I let you run away? Xie Feng flipped his hand, and the Soul Atonement Sword suddenly appeared in his hand, and then stabbed towards the black shadow.
"Qiang!"
The black shadow's dagger opened Xie Feng's sword, and Xie Feng was shocked. This assassin's ability to use the dagger and his fighting intuition exceeded Xie Feng's expectations. Although Xie Feng had never thought of stabbing the assassin, he just wanted to
The assassin's movements were blocked. However, the assassin was able to accurately block Xie Feng's sword with his own dagger despite being unable to see, which made Xie Feng admire him very much.
Xie Feng raised his sword and skillfully danced out sword flowers. Xie Feng's purpose was just to push away the assassin's dagger, and then he could easily subdue him. But the dagger seemed to grow on the opponent's hand.
No matter how Xie Feng chose, the dagger was still firmly in his hand.
"Damn it," Xie Feng cursed angrily in his heart. He was very afraid of the opponent's ability to use a dagger. If the opponent had a dagger in his hand, Xie Feng would not dare to approach him at all.
The shadows fought and retreated, and soon their hands touched the edge of the door, and they were about to escape.
At this time, the black shadow pulled hard and opened the ajar door. Just as he was about to step out, a large net suddenly fell from the sky and accurately covered the black shadow's entire body.
"Bingo!" Xie Feng shouted excitedly, then kicked the black figure, who had temporarily lost the ability to move due to being trapped in the net, out of the room and rolled to the open space outside the room. At this time, he heard a noise
The guards came from a distance one after another. They looked at the netted man on the ground in surprise. Then they drew their weapons and surrounded the man.
When the black shadow cut through the net and got rid of the restraint, and tears washed away the lime powder in his eyes, and he could barely see, he realized that he was surrounded. He couldn't help but grit his teeth and hated himself for being too careless this time.
Xie Feng looked at the dark figure, nodded with satisfaction and walked out of the crowd, came to the dark figure, smiled and said to the dark figure: "I will give you a multiple-choice debut question. The question is: 'What are you going to do now?
?'Option A: Put down your weapons, then surrender, and enjoy preferential treatment. Option B: Desire to fight us to the death, and then be killed or exhausted on the spot. Option C: Commit suicide on the spot in order not to leak information. Option D: Uh.
...I haven't decided yet - anyway, make your decision quickly!" After saying that, Xie Feng raised a crossbow, prepared to shoot, and pointed the arrow accurately at the black shadow's head.
The black figure opened a pair of red, swollen and painful eyes and looked at Xie Feng who was not far away. After a long time, he smiled self-deprecatingly, and then flicked his hand. The dagger that had never left his hand was inserted into it.
On the ground.
