343 actually killed
An hour later, there was a knock on the door. Chu Feng walked to the door, opened it a crack, and returned to the table after a while. His expression was indescribable.
"What's the matter? Didn't he take the bait? Or did he take it too seriously?"
Wang Chufeng laughed, "Ping An is right. My people found that there are many people hiding on both sides of that slightly remote road. But don't worry, they are all low-end people that they have used money to find over the years. They are nothing."
Ping An said seriously, "How do you know that there are no powerful ones among these people? We still need to be careful."
Chu Feng sneered: "My step-grandmother relied on her beauty. She was born in a seventh-rank official family and her dowry was pitifully small. My grandfather had a good family. Although he was lustful, he put the eldest son first and passed the main assets of the family to my father early on. Although the second branch of the family has also gained a lot of wealth over the years, it is not too much.
My uncle's men are here too, they are just a short distance away, if they hear the noise over there, his men will be there too, it's safe, it's best if you take your men with you."
"Let me help you."
Wang Chufeng said nothing more and patted Ping An's shoulder.
"Let's go. There are not many people in the restaurant." Ping'an checked his things again.
I brought a lot of medicine with me, but they may not be useful. It was windy outside when I came, and if I don't spread it well, I might get my own people drunk.
His people will take the antidote in advance, but what about Chu Feng’s people?
He equipped the short crossbow in his arms with ten arrows. It was twelve o'clock tonight and the moonlight was good, so it should be able to be used.
There are daggers in the boots on both sides. The short daggers are not very suitable for fighting, but they all know how to walk on snow, and with their extremely ghostly footsteps, it can also be effective.
Wang Chufeng picked up the iron rod behind the door and said, "Ping An, this thing is powerful. It's neither light nor heavy, just right for your hand. I'll give you one later."
The iron rod was hidden inside the cloak, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see anything.
After leaving the room, Ping An walked up to Erqiang, Lin Feng and Xiao Wu and gave them some instructions in a low voice, which basically told them to be careful and not to protect him, as he was better at walking than any of them.
There is no need for those people to fight for their lives, as they have Wang Chufeng's people and the people from the Marquis' Mansion.
Erqiang nodded, feeling somewhat nervous but also a little excited. They practiced sparring every day, but real combat with real weapons was rare.
The group walked out of the door and the shopkeeper saw them out with a smile.
Ping'an and his companions had just walked towards the carriage when suddenly there was a hail of arrows all around. Ping'an pulled Wang Chufeng over and hid outside the carriage for a few moments. The shopkeeper who had sent them out was unfortunately shot in the shoulder and fell down. Wang Chufeng was unharmed because Ping'an pulled him quickly, but two of his followers were injured.
"Damn it, they actually started a fight here, don't they have any considerations at all?" Wang Chufeng was filled with hatred.
The other two people just leaned out to rescue the injured person who fell to the ground, and immediately there was another hail of arrows. No matter how fast the two people dodged, they were still injured.
"Ping An, what should we do? My uncle and I are mainly in the front, a long way from here, so we may not be able to hear such a sound. There are only two secret guards left here. Listen, they are already fighting."
"Chu Feng, several of your people are injured. Listen to me. You lie still here. Da Wu and I will go and capture a few of them. If we can't get rid of the rest, we'll just have to injure them."
Wang Chufeng gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay if they are all injured or die."
"Okay, Dawu, Erqiang, the two of you come out with me. Fangwu, you stay here to look after Master Wang." Ping'an took off his cloak. Dressed in black, he seemed to blend into the faint moonlight.
Ping'an was holding a dagger in his hand. This dagger was given to him by General Hao. It was very sharp and had never tasted blood before.
He and his men were all wearing a thin vest, a vest model he designed himself, made by blacksmith Li. It was just made of fine iron, and in order to be easier to wear, the iron sheets were thin, so arrows could still penetrate it, but it would be much better, at least the penetration would not go deep.
He and his master's men all had one piece of this kind of armor.
Fang Wu said nothing, standing in front of Wang Chufeng and pulling the two injured people to his side. As for the two who fell to the ground not far away, they could only be pulled away later. Whether they would be hit by arrows again depended on their luck.
He knew clearly in his heart that his master's arrangement was such that he was still not as good as Erqiang and Dawu in Snow Steps, and he was even worse than Xiaowu and Lin Feng. He had to practice more diligently.
Before Ping'an and the others could move, many dark shadows came running over from all directions, and even two rushed out from the restaurant.
Ping'an, Dawu and Erqiang no longer hesitated. They walked on the snow like ghosts, making it impossible for those people to get close to them. The sound of "puff" could be heard continuously, and the wailing was particularly clear in the dark night.
Ping An was delighted. These sounds were good. Wang Chufeng and Wang Wei's people would hear them. Even if they heard the slightest sound, they would rush over.
On Fang Wu's side, he and Wang Chufeng also fought with others. Fortunately, there was only one person. Fang Wu quickly stabbed him just below his left shoulder with a knife, and Wang Chufeng hit him on the leg with a stick. The man fainted on the spot.
Ping'an saw that there were still more than a dozen people. Dawu and Erqiang were beside him. One of the two secret guards was injured, and the other was also on their side.
They were now only ten feet away from Wang Chufeng and Fang Wu's carriage.
One against four is still a little difficult. These people tonight are not the ordinary people that Wang Chufeng said. They actually have some skills.
Wang Chufeng saw that there were still too many people. Although his lightness skills were not good, his stick skills were still good. There was no reason for him to hide and let Ping An and the others take risks.
He hurried over to Ping'an's side. Fang Wu had wanted to fight him for a long time, so he followed him immediately.
Ping An didn't say anything, and there was no time for him to speak.
The other party really intended to kill them. These people seemed not to be afraid of death and rushed straight towards them, with their shining swords glowing in the dark night.
In comparison, Ping An and the others all have short blades, which would be very dangerous if they were not for the Snow Stepping Step.
With a few "puff" sounds, several people fell to the ground.
Fang Wu and Wang Chufeng were also slightly injured, so Ping An quickly asked Erqiang to go over and protect them.
Just then, footsteps were heard on the street in the distance.
Wang Chufeng and Wang Wei's men arrived, and the battle was over in a short while.
Wang Chufeng endured the pain in his legs and asked the secret guards to leave. He then asked someone from the Hou Mansion to go back and report to his uncle.
Ping An then discovered that he had also suffered a minor injury on his arm. It was not serious, but he had lost a lot of blood.
Erqiang and Dawu clamped down on the jaws of these people. Those who were not seriously injured were tied up with their belts, and those who were bleeding were left to bleed.
Upon closer inspection, there were actually more than twenty people on the other side.
This is really cruel.
Fang Wu endured the pain and took the medical kit from the car, then simply bandaged his master's wound and stopped the bleeding.
Ping An took the things and helped Fang Wu and Wang Chufeng stop the bleeding.
Er Qiang came over and said, "Ping An, five of Master Wang's men were injured, one of them is seriously injured."
Ping An nodded: "Got it, help them stop the bleeding and bandage them, the people will be here soon."
Sure enough, just as they finished their work, they could clearly hear the sound of horse hooves from both ends of the street, and it was not just Wang Wei's people.
Ping An and the others picked up their weapons again.
