Chapter nine hundred and seventy-two beautiful dreams, gorgeous and short

The moment Wu Zheng jumped off, with a "swoosh", an arrow almost flew over Wu Zheng's head.

With a "click", it firmly nailed to the wall of the tavern and pierced half a foot deep.

Yue Xiaolin and Lu Jincai reacted quickly, dragged Wu Zheng into the tavern and shouted: "There is an assassin..."

Now the people outside became panicked again, but this time the panic was not a fight, but searching for assassins everywhere, but it was dark, how could it be found?

Lu Jincai lifted up the table and blocked the door of the tavern.

Wu Zhengde said to the two: "I'm afraid it's hard to be good about today. I have to think of going out to mobilize troops. Who will you two go?"

Lu Jincai said with a bitter face: "But I can't get out now!"

Wu Zheng looked around four times, suddenly found that Liu Ren was not there, and asked, "Where is Liu Yuan?"

Among the four people who were with Zheng Yidao, one of them replied: "Liu Yuan and Zheng Yijin and Xu Laoer were outside. I have never seen him since Liu Yuan shouted."

Wu Zheng thought for a while and said, "The three of them are outside, so call them to the direction of Beimen Bridge and ask for help from the imperial guards."

So, under the protection of Yue Xiaolin and Lu Jincai, Wu Zheng stood up and shouted to the outside: "Liu Yuan, Zheng Yijin, Xu Laoer, can you three be outside?"

It’s true that Wu Zheng’s shout made three voices sound at the same time, “The student (the youngest) is here, I wonder what the prince has to give?”

Wu Zheng asked loudly: "Who is the closest to Beimen Bridge?"

"Prince, the youngest Xu Laoer, the youngest is very close to Beimen Bridge."

"Can you get by?"

"There are not many people behind the little ones, so they should be able to get through."

Wu Zheng was relieved when he heard this, so he shouted: "In this way, you raise a torch, go to Beimen Bridge, and send an order for me to let that... be called?"

Wu Zheng turned his head and asked Yue Xiaolin, and Lu Jincai.

Lu Jincai was stunned and shook his head.

Yue Xiaolin blinked and thought for a while, "The leading households seem to be surnamed Yuan."

Wu Zheng immediately remembered, "Xu Lao Er, when you go to see Yuan Chengli, the hundred-household imperial guards, you said that I ordered him to bring troops to come immediately and guide the people without any mistakes! If you accomplish this, I will remember your merits and you will be rewarded afterwards!"

"Get orders!" Xu Laoer responded happily, but there was no ready-made torch in his hand. He snatched a wooden stick from the chaotic people around him, took off his ragged shirt, circled it up a few times, lit it, raised it, ran towards the North Gate Bridge.

It turns out that I heard that there was a reward, and I was willing to give up the clothes on my body.

More than one mile can make contributions by running around. This great good thing falls on my head. Hehe... Xu Lao Er feels that it is coming.

There were countless gazes behind him staring at him, and the most emotional feeling was revealed in it, that was envy.

In the dark night, Xu Laoer holding a torch became the focus of everyone's eyes.

Xu Laoer was still very obedient. He strictly followed Wu Zheng's instructions and ran out of a mile, shouting vigorously: "The official officer on the opposite side, the young man came to see Yuan Chengli, the prince of Kuaiji..."

However, in full view of the public, a major change happened.

With a "buzz", dense arrows came towards Xu Laoer.

In an instant, Xu Laoer was covered with arrows, like a hedgehog.

Because it was dark, Xu Laoer didn't even notice the arrow flying towards him, so when he died, the smile on his face was still there.

The corpse was taken back by the inertia of the arrow. When it fell down, it was because the arrow penetrated his body. The arrow rod supported his corpse. Instead of falling to the ground, it lay at an angle, facing the sky, as if questioning God why.

The torch in his hand fell to the ground, and his already untied torn clothes spread out. After burning in an instant, it slowly faded out, just like Xu Lao Er's dream, splendid and short-lived.

....

When the drastic change occurred, Wu Zheng was watching with the arrow that Lu Jincai pulled out.

This is a crossbow arrow.

Wu Zheng's brows became tighter and tighter. Crossbow arrows were controlled items.

At most, there are bows and arrows in the market. The shafts are long and feathered tails. However, the crossbow arrows are different. The arrow rods are short and there are no feathered tails.

This is a unique weapon of the army.

But Wu Zheng still guessed that the war was still going on at this time and the assassins could get it from the battlefield.

But Yue Xiaolin next to him suddenly said, "Prince, the imperial guards have changed. They shot Xu Laoer!"

Wu Zheng was shocked. As soon as he looked up, the people outside also began to scream.

One mile away, the people couldn't see clearly that Xu Lao Er was shot, but Xu Lao Er fell down on his back and fell to the torch in his hand and extinguished it. This is what he could see.

Compared to the people, Yue Xiaolin guessed that he was shot and killed by the imperial guards even faster.

Strangely, the crowd outside was not as chaotic as before.

Countless people looked at the tavern, where there were the brightest torches on the street and the hope in their hearts.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in the crowd: "This is a conspiracy. There is a liar in the tavern. We can't believe him. Xu Lao Er was killed. Are you still awake... Follow me and rushed up, kill this dog thief, and avenge Xu Lao Er...uh."

A sharp blade stabbed in from his back, penetrated from his chest, and then flashed and disappeared.

The person who called out suddenly died, dying to death.

In the darkness, no one saw the murderer.

Blood gushed out, the corpse fell down, and the people around him screamed and retreated. In such a crowded situation, it left a considerable space for the corpses on the ground. It seems that the shaping nature of the human body is indeed powerful and can squeeze the body to an unimaginable level.

This has reduced the density of people leading to the tavern.

Just as the people's attention was attracted to the corpse on the ground, a figure quickly moved closer to the tavern.

When Yue Xiaolin and Lu Jincai saw it, they quickly blocked it with a knife.

But the man bowed in front of the door and said, "Sir, please see the prince."

Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment and said angrily: "Who are you?"

The man glanced at Yue Xiaolin and Lu Jincai.

Wu Zheng said in a deep voice: "Say."

"Yes. No. 27, the subordinate Changlin Weibing Group."

Wu Zheng was stunned and said to Yue Xiaolin. Lu Jincai: "Let him come in."

....

"No. 27, the subordinate Changlin Weibing Group."

This sentence shocked Wu Zheng. He knew that Yingtian Prefecture already had a Changlinwei branch, but Wu Zheng did not know that Changlinwei would appear among this group of chaotic people.

"The person killed is the target of the subordinates' constant monitoring. The subordinates were ordered to investigate the real cause of the civil chaos. They did not know that the prince would come in disguise, so they kept hiding among the people."

I don't have time to pay attention to these things, as long as they are my own people.

"Prince, please allow your subordinates to release the horn."

The horn is actually a signal barrel. Changlinwei has seven types of signal barrels to convey simple messages.

Wu Zheng knew it.

"allow."
