The three men in black hiding in the forest each hold a bow and arrow, and it seems they are ready to kill Situ Hao with one strike?
"Situ Hao, pay attention to the woods. There are at least three archers aiming at you!"
After hearing this, Situ Hao was shocked and quickly turned his head to look towards the woods. At this moment, three arrows flew towards Situ Hao at a very fast speed. When Situ Hao wanted to pick up the sword in his hand to block them, it was too late. At the moment when the arrows were about to hit Situ Hao, Lu Zifeng had already flashed in front of Situ Hao, and caught the three arrows in his hand with a wave of his hand. With another throw of his hand, the three arrows flew towards the woods at a very fast speed again.
Immediately afterwards, three shrill screams were heard from the woods. Lu Zifeng glanced at the woods, then turned to look at Li Si and others slaughtering the men in black. These men in black were obviously much stronger in martial arts than the ones they had just encountered, so it took Li Si and others some effort to eliminate them all.
After packing up again, the group finally arrived at a farm outside the city before dark. This farm was the farm of Prince Jing's Mansion. The three of them entered the farm, and the farm manager hurried forward to greet Situ Hao.
After settling down, Lu Zifeng began to patrol the entire farm with his mental power. He felt relieved when he found that there was no danger for the time being. However, Lu Zifeng did not dare to be careless. Now he was only one step away from the capital. If something really happened to Situ Hao, he would be really embarrassed. Besides, Lu Zifeng was also his friend!
Lu Zifeng lives next to Situ Hao's room, and is secretly protected by Li Si and his shadow guards.
At midnight, another group of people came to the farm. Lu Zifeng had already discovered them and said to Li Si.
"People are coming, be careful and try to keep them all here?"
Li Si was originally resting on a big tree nearby and keeping watch. After hearing what Lu Zifeng said, he knew that someone was coming again. He quickly started making gestures to the other shadow guards to remind everyone that someone was coming.
In fact, the shadow guards have already known how powerful Lu Zifeng is during this period of time. Since he said that someone has arrived, then someone must have arrived. They immediately perked up and kept an eye on their surroundings.
Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, a very light rustling sound was heard. Lu Zifeng not only saw the group of men in black who came in, but also saw that one of them was actually from the manor. So there was a hidden agent on this manor?
Lu Zifeng didn't want to alert the enemy for the time being, so he didn't touch the secret line, but watched the man in black break into the yard where Situ Hao and his group lived.
After taking a look, Lu Zifeng sat in the house and did not go out. The martial arts of this group of men in black were just so-so. They were not as good as those men in black he saw in the afternoon.
The man in black walked to the window, poked a hole in the window paper with his hand, took out a bamboo tube as thick as a finger from his arms, and prepared to blow smoke into Situ Hao's house.
How could Lu Zifeng let him succeed? He threw a stone at him. The man suddenly became stiff and stood there without moving at all.
The person behind the man in black saw that the boss was standing there motionless and felt something was unusual. He hurried forward to take a look and found that the boss was actually dead. He was just puzzled as to how he died and how he died silently. However, this was not the time to dwell on this matter, so he hurriedly took the bamboo tube from the boss's hand and prepared to blow smoke into it again.
Lu Zifeng found it funny. These people probably didn't have any professional training. Even at this point, they still hadn't noticed anything unusual.
After seeing that all the men in black had entered the yard and there were no more men in black outside, Lu Zifeng rushed out of the house.
"Don't leave any one alive, kill them all."
Li Si and others immediately began to attack the men in black. The men in black panicked and wanted to break out of the encirclement, but how could Lu Zifeng let them escape? Since they chose to assassinate Prince Jing, being killed here was their fate.
Situ Hao waited until the noise outside stopped before he opened the door and walked out. Looking at the corpses on the ground, he said expressionlessly.
"Hurry up and take care of it. Rest early. We'll go to Beijing early tomorrow morning."
Lu Zifeng was sleeping peacefully here, while in a remote courtyard house in the capital, a middle-aged man in his forties looked at the man in black in front of him and cursed.
"You are such losers! Tell me, how much money have you taken from us in the past two years? But did you really kill Situ Hao? That guy is still alive and well. If you send someone else now, I don't believe that we can't kill you again and again."
The man in black rolled his eyes. "Butler Qi, you should know that since the year before last, all the people we sent out have never returned. Did you explain to us? You said at the beginning that Situ Hao has martial arts skills, but you didn't mention that he is surrounded by such masters. I saw it yesterday. Although he doesn't attack very often, when he does, it is sure to take a life. This man's martial arts skills are not a little bit strong. To be honest, none of our people can match him. If you really want to kill Situ Hao, you can only do it when he is not around. In the future, when he is around, we will not take action again."
"Also, don't mention how much money you gave us. You should know that it costs a lot of money to train a killer. The money you gave us went to the families of our deceased brothers. At least they are dead!"
The words of the man in black left Butler Qi speechless. He wanted to say that it was their own business. We gave you money, but you didn't complete the task, so it was your fault for not speaking properly. However, he just thought about it and said helplessly.
"If we can't kill Situ Hao today, our master probably won't be able to stay in the capital for much longer."
After saying that, Butler Qi waved his hand and walked outside.
Early the next morning, Situ Hao took Lu Zifeng and others and headed towards the capital.
Half an hour later, the group entered the capital directly. Lu Zifeng and Li Si protected Situ Hao and walked towards the palace gate.
Situ Hao looked at the bustling streets and smiled, "We're finally home. Let's go to the palace first to hand in our mission to the Emperor's uncle. I'm going back to have a good rest. To be honest, I'm really tired these days."
Lu Zifeng understood this point. After all, he was walking on a tightrope every day. He might lose his life at any time, so Lu Zifeng smiled.
"You are safest with me, don't worry."
As soon as Lu Zifeng finished speaking, he grabbed Situ Hao and put him behind him.
"Hold on tight."
He rode his horse and galloped towards the palace gate.
