Chapter 129: Assassination
Yang Yidao outside the hall heard Li Qing's roar and Lin Zhengyin's ruthless words, almost wanted to draw his sword and rush in. Tang Hu's eyes wide open, his face turned red, and he was circling like a trapped beast. If Yang Yidao hadn't pulled him hard, he would have rushed into the lobby.
A beautiful figure flashed in front of him, but Qingfeng rushed out crying. Yang Yidao signaled Tang Hu to stay where he was and ran out with Qingfeng. "Director Qingfeng, slow down!" he shouted.
Li Qing walked out with a dark face and strode out, "Let's go!" He shouted angrily, never looking back at the Lin family.
As he stepped onto the carriage, the breeze shrank in a corner, his whole body shrank into a ball, his body trembling constantly. Li Qing looked at her silently, but he didn't know where to start the comforting words.
"Master, let's go!" Yang Yidao said softly. Then the car body shook slightly, and the hooves were sounding, and the group of people set out on the return journey silently.
Li Qing hugged the breeze from a corner of the carriage into her arms and patted her back gently.
"General, Yun Xi is really dead this time, and will never come back." Qingfeng raised his face and tears rolled down his face in strings.
"Yun Xi is dead, but Qingfeng is still alive, and she will live a better and more exciting life, so that the old man can see it well." Li Qing said gritting his teeth.
"He is my grandfather!"
"You still recognize such a person as your grandfather, spit!" Li Qing spitted fiercely.
Qingfeng was speechless and leaned her head against Li Qing's chest. From then on, the only thing she could rely on was this broad chest. Feeling the trembling of the woman in her arms, Li Qing sighed silently and hugged him tightly. The Lin family refused to recognize Qingfeng, and her desire to marry a matchmaker was completely lost.
The somewhat bumpy carriage suddenly stopped, and Li Qing suddenly felt something strange, "What's wrong, a knife?" he asked.
"General, I feel very bad. It seems that someone is spying on us." Yang Yidao replied intently. Zhong Jing on the other side of the carriage also drew a short sword, "General, I feel the same way."
Li Qing's heart was shocked. He also felt this way. Those who came back from the battlefield for a lifetime have always had a natural intuition about danger.
"Back!" Li Qing said softly.
However, the moment the carriage began to retreat, a sound suddenly came from the air that made everyone present very familiar but extremely frightened. "Eight Cow Crossbow!" Yang Yidao exclaimed.
Li Qing did not think, the target must be a carriage, it must be himself. He grabbed Qingfeng and suddenly hit the carriage wall sideways, thundering all over. The thin carriage wall was broken, and Li Qing and Qingfeng fell out of the car. Almost at the same time, the arrow as thick as an arm passed by their eyes. The carriage was suddenly broken by the huge impact of the Baniu Crossbow. A guard behind the car could not dodge and was shot towards the face by the Baniu Crossbow. He screamed and his body was shot out. After the Baniu Crossbow's powerful force penetrated the guard's chest, he continued to fly forward and penetrated into a darkness.
"Tang Hu protects the general!" Yang Yidao shouted, and he pulled out his horse and rushed forward. The guards beside Li Qing instantly formed into two walls, blocking Li Qing firmly behind him.
The familiar sound of squeezing strings sounded again in the darkness, and Li Qing shouted, "Everyone rushed up to stop the Baniu Crossbow from firing. Zhong Jing retreated with Qingfeng." When the guards heard Li Qing's order, they shouted without thinking, and rushed forward with Yang Yidao. Li Qing pulled out his waist knife and wanted to rush forward. His body tightened, but was firmly grasped by Tang Hu, "General, we are not dead, it's not your turn to go. You said."
A strange sound was whizzing in the air, "Bound Arrow!" The person who plotted against him was so vicious. Not only did he use the military and national weapon like the Baniu Crossbow, he even had the usual crossbow arrows in the army. The Dachu Ban Crossbow couldn't help but bow because the crossbow arrows were extremely powerful at a short distance and had no way to dodge. It was really unfavorable to use assassination. The unexpected guards were all caught in the arrows and fell down. Li Qing was very angry. He didn't expect that he would be assassinated to such a degree in the capital. If the soldiers were wearing armor before going out, they would inevitably be injured, but they were likely to save their lives. But now they were wearing only thin clothes and could not survive.
Yang Yidao was extremely brave. Two crossbow arrows were inserted into his body, one of them on his left arm and right legs. He actually shouted and walked forward with a sword dancing forward, just protecting his vitals. Seeing this scene, Tang Hu shouted and pulled his sword and rushed forward, "Master, be careful!"
Li Qing heard a clamor in his ears, and his heart suddenly felt cold. This was the sound of the Eight Niu Crossbows being on the crossbow arrow again.
Just when Li Qing thought it was not good, the sound of a strong bow breaking through the air came, and screams came from the darkness. The heavy sound of a human body falling to the ground, and the originally dense crossbow arrows became leaked in an instant. Yang and Tang seized this rare opportunity and thrust the sword to kill. When Li Qing heard the sound of a strong bow breaking through the air came, he had already judged the target of the arrow. He was overjoyed, raised his waist and ran away wildly. At this moment, the remaining two guards rushed into the crowd opposite at this moment. These soldiers who came down from the battlefield finally showed their ability to capture all opportunities.
The knife was in the flesh and screamed. The people who were assassinated on the other side were not good at fighting. In a moment, they were killed by four people and they were scattered. With a whistle, they passed through their bodies and fled. Tang Hu roared wildly and wanted to chase them, but Li Qing shouted: "Come back!" Tang Hu turned his head in confusion, but saw Li Qing's eyes staring at several assassins who were nailed to the ground by feather arrows. These assassins were all shot in their thighs. The arrow was extremely powerful and actually penetrated their thighs and nailed them to the ground. Seeing several people covered in blood turning their heads towards them, their souls were scattered, and their eyes were full of fear.
"That friend, please help me. Please leave your name. Li Qing will be rewarded!" Li Qing shouted in the direction where the strong bow was shot.
A chuckle came from the darkness: "General Li, you owe me a favor." Amid the laughter, a burst of footsteps quickly left and soon disappeared.
Yang Yidao and Tang Hu gathered around Li Qing alertly, while the other two searched in dispersed ways to confirm that they were safe before returning. "Hurry, see if there are still alive brothers?"
Several people walked to the fallen guards, and after a brief examination, they all raised their heads in disappointment. Seeing Li Qing shaking his head slightly, Li Qing bit his lip and his hand holding the knife became tighter and tighter. Eight Niu Crossbow, the standard crossbow arrows in the army, looking at the murderous weapons scattered on the ground, and the eyes were shot out. Who knew where they were going tonight, and set up such a horrifying formation here, and insisted on killing themselves soon. Xiao Yuanshan? Qu Yongjie? Or people from other families, and only people in the army or wealthy families, would have these powerful weapons. In the blink of an eye, Li Qing had already changed his mind.
"If people tied up, these things must be taken away!" Li Qing ordered.
A burst of footsteps and firelight came from the end of the street, and a large group of people rushed over quickly, "Luoyang Inspection Department, who is here?" A shout came from the opposite side.
"General Li Qing and Li, who is here?" Yang Yidao asked sternly, and at the same time, several personal guards stood in front of Li Qing.
"Ah!" The opposite side was obviously very surprised, "General Li Qing, the inspector of the Luoyang Inspection Department, Zhou Ping."
He rushed to the front, and the tragic situation in front of him almost fainted. The four of them were covered in blood. There were two women behind them, both of whom were pale in their faces.
"This, this, what's going on?" Zhou Ping asked stuttered.
Yang Yidao walked up to him and showed his guards, "What's going on? I'm about to ask you? How did you patrol, but he actually asked the assassin to calmly arrange the eight-ox crossbow and strong crossbow and other forbidden objects here, which almost hurt our general. These brothers who died in the dead will turn back and let your inspection department give us an explanation."
"General, this is not our business, we don't know!" Zhou Ping shouted unjustly. Luoyang is so big that they can cover everything.
"Okay, okay, this matter has nothing to do with you. Now you can help clean up the place. The living assassins, these crossbows, and my personal guards will all be sent to the Weiyuan Hou Mansion with me." Li Qing said impatiently.
"But, sir, all these evidences must be sent to the Inspection Office or Luoyang Mansion."
Yang Yidao choked and pulled out half of it, "My general asked you to send it to Weiyuan Hou Mansion, didn't you hear it?"
"I heard it, I heard it!" Zhou Ping suddenly became half short, turned around, and loudly ordered his subordinates, "Didn't you hear the general? Send all these to the Weiyuan Hou Mansion."
When the servants of Weiyuan Hou Mansion saw Li Qing, Yang Yidao and others covered in blood, they were shocked and met them. After a moment, the entire Hou Mansion became busy, and the Anguo Duke's Mansion not far away was also in a mess. Soon, Duke's Duke Li Huaiyuan and the Shouning Hou Li Tuizhi gathered at the Weiyuan Hou Mansion.
Li Qing's face was ashen, and the twelve dead guards were covered with white cloth. They were lined up in the yard. On the other side, the killers who were captured were all ashamed and were slumped on the ground.
