But young master is so awesome!
No wonder the young master could pull out a weapon that terrified the court, and make ordinary soldiers wielding such weapons become capable of taking on a hundred enemies single-handedly. At this moment, Black Rat and the archers all had the same thought.
That is——
Must win!
The young master's trump cards far exceed the court's imagination. The Zhou family will surely win this battle against the court!
"Young master, we saw nothing and know nothing."
"What didn't I see? Did anything just happen?"
"Hahaha, yes, no, nothing happened... For some reason, I suddenly feel a little sorry for Marquis Pingyang. If he knew how powerful the young master is, he would probably regret it to the core."
"Hmph! That greedy and treacherous beast, it's good that he's shown his true colors now, otherwise we wouldn't have known how vicious he was!"
After the initial excitement, everyone calmed down.
The conversation involuntarily turned to the Marquis of Pingyang.
That fool, in order to curry favor with Emperor Yan, actually had the idea of sending the young lady to the capital. I wonder if he would regret being blind and choosing the wrong side if he knew the young master's strength.
After emptying the vault, Zhou Cheng led everyone to prepare for their evacuation.
However,
Just then!
"Bang--"
A gunshot rang out in the distance, causing Zhou Cheng to abruptly halt his movement as he mounted his horse.
Black Rat had obviously heard the noise as well, and immediately frowned, looking at Zhou Cheng and asking, "Young Master, I think I just heard a gunshot... about a mile or two away, was it a gunshot?"
"Besides us, are there other people in Yan City who possess deadly weapons?"
Otherwise, where did the gunshots come from?
Zhou Cheng shook his head.
All his men are here; how could an outsider possibly have a weapon?
The Zhou family is extremely strict about the safekeeping of weapons. They will never give anyone the chance to handle a gun unless they are loyal and trustworthy. Anyone who gets a rifle is someone who is willing to risk their life for the Zhou family.
Judging by the time... Black Sheep should be arriving in Wangcheng soon to join us?
Thinking about this...
Zhou Cheng turned his horse around and looked toward the source of the gunfire: "Only my men could possess such a weapon. Something is definitely amiss. Come with me and see what's going on."
On the way from the alley entrance to the vault.
The black sheep, clutching its bleeding shoulder, stumbled and fled.
Behind,
It was a group of government soldiers who had come to pursue them, numbering around one or two hundred!
Black Sheep was also unlucky. After being hit by an arrow on the spot, he realized that if he dragged it out any longer, he and Zhou Shiying would be captured. He immediately threw away the only grenade and took the opportunity to escape.
But to my utter surprise,
Halfway through their escape, Black Sheep ran into the third wave of soldiers coming from the opposite direction.
He was wounded by arrows and had only a few bullets left. How could he possibly be a match for a couple hundred men?
After firing two shots, Black Sheep turned and ran, but his wound kept bleeding. The soldiers were in hot pursuit of the weapon, and there was no time to even bandage him.
"It's someone from the Zhou family. The weapon in his hand is no longer effective!"
"Quick, grab him!"
"His Majesty once issued an imperial decree that whoever can seize the killing weapon from the Zhou family will be considered to have accomplished a great feat. We've finally got what we deserve today, hahaha!"
The soldiers from the government swarmed in.
Black Sheep glanced back. In the darkness, those eyes were filled with greed and ruthlessness... This group of people were staring intently at the rifle in his hand, determined to wear him down.
Too,
The more Emperor Yan feared weapons of mass destruction, the more he longed to obtain them!
Black Sheep pressed his bleeding wound tightly, drenched in cold sweat, and gritted his teeth as he hurried towards the direction of the raging fire...
