"Two military masters, I am not harboring assassins."
Zhang Wuyan quickly defended himself. He knew that these two guys wanted money, so he gave each of them a tael of silver.
"If you say you are harboring an assassin, you are harboring an assassin. Stop making excuses and come with us to jail!"
The two of them each grabbed one of Zhang Wuyan's arms and were about to take Zhang Wuyan to prison.
At the same time, the two of them said in Zhang Wuyan’s ears: “More money!”
"Yeah! I knew it."
Zhang Wuyan cursed secretly, these guys would definitely not let it go if they finally had an opportunity to make money openly.
However, Zhang Wuyan didn't want to give money.
It's not that he doesn't have money, it's that he can't give it.
If you give one tael of silver, they will want another 2 taels of silver.
If you give them two taels of silver, they will want five taels of silver, ten taels of silver, or a hundred taels of silver...
People's greed is endless. The more they give, not only will they not let Zhang Wuyan go, but the more they will want, until they have completely squeezed Zhang Wuyan dry, and will mercilessly put Zhang Wuyan in jail.
"Master Jun, I really don't have any more. That's all the money I have."
Zhang Wuyan looked pitiful.
"No money?" The two men suddenly changed their faces, "Then come with us to the prison!"
"Damn! I wanted to let you go, but you have to seek death, so you can't blame me."
Zhang Wuyan no longer hesitated, and with a move of his hand, he broke the two people's necks.
Afterwards, Zhang Wuyan dragged the two of them into the room and threw them into the pit that had been dug long ago.
Every time he rented a small courtyard, he would dig a hole in order to kill people and dispose of the bodies.
Just as he was preparing to fill the soil to bury people, Zhang Wuyan suddenly heard a laugh, "What a cruel boy."
"who!?"
Zhang Wuyan's expression suddenly changed. There was someone hiding around him, and he didn't know it yet?
Definitely a master!
In the shadows ahead, a masked man in black clothes stained with blood came out, "Boy, I saw you killing people in the government. Do you want me to report you?"
Zhang Wuyan was silent for a moment, then smiled helplessly and said: "Senior should be the assassin they are looking for, right?"
The masked man in black said: "That's right, it's me, the city lord of Huaibin City who I assassinated. It's a pity that the chess move was just one move away. That old guy was protected by an expert behind him."
"Senior assassinated the evil thief Gao Lao. His chivalry is unparalleled, and I admire him from this junior."
Zhang Wuyan clasped his fists in salute and patted the horse lightly.
The masked man in black said: "Boy, don't flatter me. If I see you killing people from the government, you have only two options."
"Which two roads?"
"One, I'm going to yell now and draw the others over so that your murder will be exposed. Your kid will definitely die."
"I choose two."
"Haha, smart." The masked man in black said with a smile: "The second way is to join our rebel army, work as a secret agent in Huaibin City, and deliver news to our rebel army. Not only will you survive, I can also accept you as my disciple."
, teach you powerful martial arts."
"Rebels?"
Zhang Wuyan was surprised. He hadn't heard of any rebels. Could it be that the forces outside the city had already gathered?
The masked man in black seemed to see Zhang Wuyan's doubts. He explained: "The rebel army has just been integrated and is in need of talents like you. When we take over the world in the future, you will be a veteran hero. You will be granted the title of marquis and prime minister, and you will honor your ancestors."
Zhang Wuyan curled his lips inwardly, he didn't believe the nonsense of this masked man in black.
It can be seen from the fact that he threatened himself that this guy is definitely not a good person, and neither are the rebels.
If you follow them, you won't even know when they will sell you out.
With this thought in his mind, Zhang Wuyan said: "Senior and junior, I am willing to join the rebel army to save the people of the world and save the people from water and fire."
"well said!"
The masked man in black put his hands on his hands and smiled, "You bury these two people first to avoid being discovered."
"You are a cunning boy. You have already dug a hole at home. It seems you are well prepared."
Zhang Wuyan smiled naively and scratched his head, "Junior just dug around casually and didn't think too much."
"Hmph! Do you think you can fool my eyes?"
The masked man in black sneered.
Zhang Wuyan said no more, picked up the shovel and started to bury it.
Just after filling two shovels with soil, Zhang Wuyan swung the shovel towards the body of the masked man in black.
"Haha, boy, I knew you would do this, and I had been guarding against you for a long time."
The masked man in black slapped the shovel, his palm shook, and a strong force came. Zhang Wuyan's hand was shaken away, and the shovel flew out, "When I was in the world, your kid wasn't even born yet, and you still wanted to trick me.
?”
The masked man in black came closer and grabbed Zhang Wuyan's neck with his palm, "Just die for me!"
"It's you that damn it!"
Zhang Wuyan's eyes widened, and he lowered his body to avoid the palm of the masked man in black. His palm was in the shape of an eagle's claw, and he grabbed the neck of the masked man in black.
"you……"
The masked man in black is unbelievable.
There was a crisp "click" sound, and the masked man in black tilted his head and died unexpectedly.
"You think I don't know you're guarding me? But can you guard me?"
Zhang Wuyan squatted down and searched the body of the masked man in black.
The masked man in black clothes was stained with blood. It was obvious that he failed to assassinate Gao Tianrui, the leader of Huaibin City, and he was injured. This was the biggest reason why Zhang Wuyan dared to fight back.
There is also the appearance of Zhang Wuyan, who looks like a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old. No matter how hard the masked man in black guarded him, he would never have thought that he was close to the strength of a second-rate master.
Even in a head-to-head fight, Zhang Wuyan would not necessarily lose to the injured masked man in black, let alone Zhang Wuyan's sudden explosion, which caught him off guard.
The death of the masked man in black was an injustice, but it was not an injustice.
A book was found on the masked man in black, but there was nothing else. Zhang Wuyan didn't even bother to look at his appearance, he just pushed him into the pit and buried him with the two soldiers.
After getting it done, Zhang Wuyan thought to himself, "Should I run away?"
In the end, Zhang Wuyan decided to stay here and not run away.
Running away is to tell others that he is related to the assassin, and Huaibin City will definitely want him vigorously when the time comes.
Although he has been keeping a low profile and is very low-key, there are still people who know his appearance. If his portrait is posted and he is wanted, that will be really big trouble.
It would be best for him to continue to stay here and act as if nothing had happened.
The most dangerous place is the safest.
Who would have thought that a boy "sixteen or seventeen years old" would have the courage to kill two government soldiers and also kill the assassins as well?
Neither the officials in the city nor the rebels outside the city could have imagined it!
"Look at the book that the assassin carried even when he assassinated Gao Tianrui. What kind of treasure is it?"
Zhang Wuyan returned to his room, put the book under the oil lamp and looked at it.
