The Pingyang Prefecture soldiers were right in front of them!
Given Zhou Shiying's condition, he probably truly lacked the strength to escape. Yancheng was quite a distance from Wangcheng, and hundreds or even thousands of government soldiers were still pursuing him from behind...
But he couldn't bring himself to abandon Zhou Shiying and run back!
"Young Miss, I can't abandon you."
"Now that I've met you tonight, I have to take you back. If I were to hand you over to the Marquis of Pingyang, would I even be considered a human being?"
After speaking...
Black Sheep took the rifle.
Load it immediately.
They aimed at the soldiers who were slowly rushing out of the alley.
Black Sheep was ordered to go to Pingyang City to investigate. There was basically no risk on the way, so Black Sheep didn't need many bullets, just a box of one hundred, thinking that would be enough.
But I never expected to encounter a situation like this!
"Da da da......."
"It really is here!"
"Madam, you can't escape now, come back with us!"
The first batch of soldiers arrived in droves.
There were approximately one hundred people.
Seeing that the black sheep was standing still and holding a dark object pointed at the guards, it was unclear what he was doing.
Zhou Shiying, who was standing next to him, was terrified. Had he gone mad?
How can he fight against a hundred people all by himself?
And this dark thing was something I had never seen before. I guessed it was the kind of weapon or hidden weapon that the black sheep had mentioned. But no matter how powerful the weapon was, it couldn't possibly be used to fight against a hundred people!
Zhou Shiying's heart leaped into her throat, and she immediately yelled at Black Sheep, "Are you crazy!"
“The Marquis of Pingyang brought several thousand of his soldiers to the capital this time. Those who caught up with me are only a small group. There are countless others scattered around the area. They will definitely come over when they hear the commotion.”
"You're just one person, how could you possibly fight against nearly a hundred soldiers? You should leave now!"
“Go, don’t go to your death. You will definitely die if you stay here, but I am different. Marquis Pingyang is still waiting to use me to exchange for benefits. He will not kill me. He will just suffer a little.”
"you......."
"Bang!!"
"ah!!"
"Bang!"
Four voices rang out at the same time.
There was a brief, deathly silence at the alley entrance. Zhou Shiying swallowed the anxious, urgent words that were about to come out of her mouth, and they got stuck in her throat.
What did she see?
Seeing the black sheep holding something dark, there was a loud bang.
Then, a soldier from the capital city, who was two or three hundred meters away, suddenly had a bloody hole appear in his head. He then let out a heart-wrenching scream, touched the blood on his forehead, and collapsed to the ground.
This moment.
Everyone was stunned.
Not only was Zhou Shiying stunned, but the guards on the other side were even more bewildered.
They froze on the spot, their eyes wide, staring intently at the fallen corpse. After a few seconds of blankness, they immediately remembered the rumored weapon that could kill from hundreds of meters away.
"Yes, it's Zhou Cheng! It's one of Zhou Cheng's men!!"
"He has a weapon, he has that kind of weapon!"
"What are you afraid of? There's only one person on the other side, while we have a hundred. There are also several groups of soldiers searching for the lady's whereabouts nearby. With this thing making such a commotion, reinforcements should be arriving soon."
"Don't panic! I refuse to believe that so many of us can't take him down. Surround him from all sides!"
Is this the weapon the black sheep described?
Is it the treasure that Cheng'er used to lead the Zhou family out of the capital?
Zhou Shiying's heart was in turmoil, her eyes filled with disbelief... Such terrifying penetrating power and distance, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she probably would never have believed that such a thing existed in the world!
No wonder........
