Chapter 379: It took another half month for the school to be built...
Another half month passed, and Xu Yunfan was able to safely hand over the school construction to other people. As for the affairs of the Imperial College, his assistant was too young and spent the whole day slacking off. Zheng Ke and others were inevitably worried. Later, they found out that there was nothing to worry about, because Xu Yunfan was doing a great job.
Don't look at his small size, he has strong working ability. All the problems that Zheng Ke, Lin Qing and Su Xiangdong noticed in the later stage were not thought of by Xu Yunfan earlier. It can be said that the Imperial College has changed a lot now.
Half a month had passed and nothing had happened. Xu Yunfan didn't take Xiao Hengzhi's warning seriously.
The Jiang family is coming over for dinner today, and Xu Yunfan volunteered to go to the Food City to pick up Xu Yi.
Just as they were leaving the city, Xu Yunfan's eyelids twitched. Without thinking, he pulled the reins and changed direction. Instead of taking the main road, he suddenly rode towards another mountain road.
When they were almost at the foot of the mountain, the horse under them was suddenly startled, neighed, and raised its front legs high. Xu Yunfan's eyes were sharp, and he didn't have time to think. The horse rolled several times when it landed, and its figure disappeared directly into the pile of weeds on the side of the road.
Damn it, that was a mistake!
MD, the people who came today were obviously well prepared. Xu Yunfan raised his neck and happened to see an arrow coming towards him.
There are too many people in the food city. Who can be sure that these people won’t take action there?
Fuck!
Being treated like a mole and about to be beaten as soon as he showed his head, Xu Yunfan cursed inwardly, rolled to the side, and took out a pistol from his waist with his backhand.
Right now, he had to kill the assassin who shot the arrow first, otherwise, he would be shot into a hedgehog sooner or later.
Fortunately, he had received formal training before, otherwise there would be no turning back today.
According to the direction of the arrow, Xu Yunfan found the right opportunity and kept changing his destination. He fired several shots within the shooting range of the pistol.
"Boss, Xiao Shi is cold."
A killer said in shock.
A group of assassins stared coldly at the direction where Xu Yunfan was hiding. "Keep shooting! I don't think he can hide in time. This man must be beheaded today."
They have been lying in ambush for several days just for this day. None of the gangs they sent out before have returned. They must not fail today, otherwise how will they survive in the underworld in the future.
Xu Yunfan originally wanted to find a hiding place in the mountains, but now it is probably impossible. If he could go up the mountain, he can guarantee that these bastards will definitely not be able to find him.
After killing three archers in succession, eight masked men in black suddenly appeared in front of him, each holding a broadsword and a sharp sword. Their aura was terrifying, far different from the warriors who had come to assassinate him before.
There are still two bullets left in the pistol. He must hit the target every time. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to avoid bleeding today.
Xu Yunfan licked his lips, eager to try with a bloodthirsty look. The strange thing was that if it were someone else, they would have been extremely nervous at such a life-threatening moment, but Xu Yunfan felt a kind of indescribable excitement.
Sure enough, there is only a fine line between genius and madness.
Want his life?
wishful thinking!
He wants to see who will kill whom today!
Xu Yunfan is very capable, and Xiao Ba and other secret guards who were sent to protect him secretly did not follow him. Their main responsibility was to protect the young masters.
Therefore, at the moment, Xu Yunfan is isolated and helpless and can only rely on himself.
Prince Xiao's Mansion.
After finally coaxing the two children to sleep, Xiao Hengzhi, who was tired and drowsy, suddenly felt a panic in his heart and woke up with a start.
"My Lord, this is bad."
Xiao Ba's panicked voice rang out, and Xiao Hengzhi felt his heart skip a beat.
As a secret guard of the Xiao family, Xiao Ba couldn't possibly lose his composure like this, unless...
Xiao Qin's home.
Qin Run was busy in the kitchen. Xu Yunfan said that he wanted to eat hot pot tonight, and Qin Run agreed. He was now making the soup base, but for some reason, he accidentally broke a few plates in the process.
The plate fell to the ground with a harsh sound. Qin Run's hands trembled twice, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.
"What's wrong?" Fang Zixi looked at Qin Run in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
Qin Run looked up at Fang Zixi in a daze, a strong sense of uneasiness welling up in his heart. This uneasiness made Qin Run scared. A few bloodshot eyes spread, and his voice trembled violently. Subconsciously, he thought of Xu Yunfan, "Yunfan... Yunfan... I want to find Yunfan..."
Having said that, Qin Run ignored Fang Zixi's surprised look and turned to run out.
The door was kicked open from outside.
Xiao Hengzhi walked in with a look of urgency on his face, and just in time stopped Qin Run who was running over. "Run'er, your brother and Xiaobao are here. Where are you going? My father said you can't go out now."
"Father, my brother and the others are all at home. Please let me go. I want to find Yunfan." Xiao Hengzhi asked anxiously. Qin Run suddenly felt a suffocating feeling that made him breathless, and he felt panic for no reason.
Xiao Hengzhi had just breathed a sigh of relief, but upon hearing this, his heart began to hang in the air again, his hands shaking, "Yun Fan is not here? Where did he go?"
"What happened?" Qin Feiyu was enjoying the cool air under the eaves of the main room. He noticed that Xiao Hengzhi's face looked strange and realized that something must have happened.
Xiao Hengzhi held Qin Run back and said, "You can't go out. The Ghost Shadow Pavilion's people are here. They are very dangerous. Run'er, listen to your father and stay home. Until your father's people have dealt with these people, you and the other children should not go out."
Qin Run didn't know what the Ghost Shadow Sect was, but Qin Feiyu knew it.
The military servants are divided into secret guards, death squads, etc. Some military servants will only follow one master and only obey the orders of a certain family or a certain person.
However, some martial servants, also known as killers, specialize in killing people for money. As long as they are paid, there is no one they dare not kill, except for a few big shots they don't want to offend.
The Ghost Shadow Pavilion specializes in this kind of business. Some of the killers in it are desperate criminals, while others are born bloodthirsty killers. In short, no matter what the reason, any killer who joins the Ghost Shadow Pavilion must have killed a few people and completed a few missions. It would be embarrassing to tell others about it.
The killers of Ghost Shadow Pavilion are very powerful. After all, it is a business that relies on the knife and blood. Who would dare to do it without some skills?
In the pavilion, there are four levels of killers: Tiandi, Xuan, and Huang. Killers of each level accept tasks of different difficulty, so the fees are naturally different.
As a top-level killer, if you want to ask them to take action, sometimes money is no longer enough to persuade them.
As for the Heaven-class killers, once they take action, they almost never fail, which makes people terrified. Once these devils are hired and the money is in place, they will not be afraid of court officials, even princes or royal family members, and will kill them without hesitation.
The existence of a force like the Ghost Shadow Pavilion is truly alarming. Not to mention that the Shang Dynasty wants to annihilate it, even other countries hate it to the core. After all, who among those in high positions of power would like to have a sword hanging over their head?
It’s a pity that no one knows where the Ghost Shadow Pavilion’s lair is except the killers in the pavilion.
Of course, generally speaking, those who can mobilize the Ghost Shadow Pavilion, whether they are sellers or targets, are not simple people.
Which of these people is powerless?
It is for this reason that all the powerful people in the upper circles know about the existence of Ghost Shadow Pavilion.
Qin Feiyu immediately asked: "Hengzhi, what level of killers are they?"
Xiao Hengzhi's face was so dark that ink was about to drip out of it. "Three people of Heaven level, seven people of Earth level."
When Xiao Ba received the letter from the Wu Shi who was lurking in the Shang Dynasty, he did not dare to delay and went to find Xiao Hengzhi. After Xiao Hengzhi checked, he found that the people from the Ghost Shadow Pavilion had been in Beijing for two or three days.
Xiao Hengzhi was so panicked that he immediately ran to Xiao Qin's house. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that the children were all there, but Xu Yunfan was not there. Xiao Hengzhi's forehead bulged and he pushed Qin Run to Qin Feiyu, "Feiyu, you watch the children. I'll go find Yunfan. Dashang has been acting rogue lately. These 'little devils' are probably coming for me."
Unfortunately, it is not easy to break into Prince Xiao's Mansion. Qin Feiyu lives in Xiao Qin's house and has many secret guards around him. Only Xu Yunfan is always alone wherever he goes. It would be strange if people didn't target him.
This time, Xiao Hengzhi guessed wrong. This group of killers were not here to assassinate him. Their target was obviously Xu Yunfan.
Who can blame Xu Yunfan for being so annoying? A civil servant has to interfere in the affairs of military officers.
The military books he gave to the Xiao family caused the Shang Dynasty to suffer losses more than a dozen times. The Shang Dynasty had repeatedly provoked and failed, which weakened the morale of the soldiers.
Later, the Shang generals sent people to inquire and finally found out that it was Xu Yunfan. It is said that this Master Xu is not only good at deploying troops and appointing generals, but also because he is the son-in-law of the Xiao family, the latest weapons used by the Xiao family army come from his family sponsorship.
These weapons were so powerful that not only could they penetrate the armor of the Shang soldiers, but their range was also comparable to that of arrows. It was obviously just a small wound, but such a wound was enough to cause them to lose batches of soldiers.
It's so scary. According to the spies, the Xiao family army currently only has dozens of such black weapons. But Xu Yunfan is so cruel. After hearing that the two countries had a small fight, he actually sent a batch over.
Damn it!
This man must die, otherwise he will become a serious problem.
Upon learning of Xu Yunfan's existence, the Great Shang Emperor was furious. The Third Prince was right. This person might be a variable and must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Guo Minglei obtained the secret token of the Shang Emperor and spent a large sum of money to hire a feared killer, whose goal was to take Xu Yunfan's head.
"Father, I want to go. I want to find Yunfan." Qin Run didn't know what Ghost Shadow Pavilion was, but seeing the serious expressions on his parents' faces, he knew that the person who came was not ordinary.
Xu Yunfan is alone. What should he do if he is really targeted?
Qin Run was so anxious that he felt dizzy and had lost all his strength, but he couldn't fall down because Xu Yunfan was still waiting for him.
In an instant, all kinds of negative emotions swept over him. The thought of Xu Yunfan getting hurt, even... Qin Run almost suffocated from the pain.
"Your Majesty, there is news outside the city..." Xiao Ba appeared like a ghost and told all the news he had heard.
Xiao Hengzhi did not dare to delay and mounted his horse.
…
Xu Yunfan had no other weapons on him except a pistol.
He has no weapons, but the enemy does.
If you don't have weapons, then rob!
At this moment, Xu Yunfan was holding a knife in both hands, dancing with great vigor, as if he was addicted to killing people, with a bloodthirsty and ruthless smile on his lips, and a hint of cruelty and tyranny in his eyes.
Is this a case of being obsessed with killing people? No, this is a case of being bloodthirsty!!
With a puff.
There was the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the flesh, and Xu Yunfan knocked down another one.
"Are you three cockroaches? You're so annoying that I can't kill you no matter how hard I try."
Xu Yunfan tilted his head and looked at the three people who were still standing with displeasure. There were several blood stains on his face, some of which had dried up, while some were still flowing down. His white clothes had long been stained with the blood of the enemies and his own, leaving burning spots. He looked like a mad beauty, but also had a creepy horror, which seemed very contradictory.
The three Heaven-level assassins who had not fallen yet looked at the assassination target who was actually smiling in front of them. At this moment, the three of them only felt that this crazy guy was more like a killer than them.
At this time, the three of them had been slashed several times by Xu Yunfan. Yes, that's right, he slashed them. This guy was extremely ruthless, and the force was so strong that it seemed as if he wanted to cut them in two.
"Boy, you're already at the end of your rope. Stop struggling. If you behave yourself, we can still make your death quicker. Otherwise... humph."
Xu Yunfan: “…”
Since you can't beat him, you want to destroy his confidence with words?
It's wishful thinking. Until the last moment, it's still unknown who will win. How can they be sure that he is at the end of his strength?
What a joke!
Xu Yunfan curled his lips and smiled, without saying a word, he swung his sword and started to act.
When Xiao Hengzhi arrived with a dozen martial servants and a group of guards, there were several men in black lying on the ground. Without exception, all of them had been hacked to death, with broken arms and limbs and blood all over the ground.
The wild grass by the roadside was splattered with blood, and the bloodstains on the ground showed that something had happened here just now.
Xu Yunfan was holding a big knife tightly in his hand. When he heard the sound, he turned around to look.
He tilted his head like that, with a smile on his face, as if he had not yet had enough killing, and the next moment he would come with a big knife and kill everyone regardless of friend or foe.
When Xiao Hengzhi and the others saw this scene, their throats tightened and they struggled to shift their gaze from the men in black to Xu Yunfan's face.
For some reason, when they saw Xu Yunfan with blood on his face, everyone felt a chill down their spines and was horrified.
I was scared!
Xiao Ba and several other secret guards did not move, but were already on guard against Xu Yunfan. There was no way, because Xu Yunfan looked clearly bloodthirsty at the moment.
Xiao Hengzhi and the others dismounted. Xu Yunfan, who was covered in blood, moved and made a gesture as if he was about to run over. Qin Run's eyes suddenly turned red. When the eyes that he was so familiar with met his gaze, a moment of trance flashed across his face.
Looking at the blood-soaked man, Qin Run panicked. He ignored the piercing pain in his heart and trembled as he shouted, "Yunfan, I'm here. Don't be afraid."
"Run'er?" Xu Yunfan seemed to be unable to react and murmured again, "Run'er?"
"I'm here." Qin Run was heartbroken. The person who had caused him so much pain had now become like this. Look at the blood all over his body. How badly injured was he!
Seeing Qin Run about to run over, Xiao Hengzhi stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, Yun Fan is not acting right, let him take it slow."
Qin Run ran over to see Xu Yunfan's symptoms. Maybe he would kill him without even thinking about it, thinking he was an accomplice of the men in black.
Qin Run struggled to her feet, staring at Xu Yunfan eagerly, her eyes red and frightening. "Father, please let me go. That's my husband, Xu Yunfan."
How scared Xu Yunfan must have been when he was being chased!
Look, people are terrified.
"Ouch..." Xu Yunfan suddenly wailed. Like a weak little beauty, the big knife in his hand fell to the ground with two clangs. His whole body swayed a few times, and he staggered a few steps, then walked weakly towards Qin Run. "Father-in-law, Run'er, hurry, help me up, I'm injured, I'm bleeding a lot, call a doctor, I can still be saved."
While Xiao Hengzhi was stunned, Qin Run broke free from Xiao Hengzhi's restraints, ran quickly to Xu Yunfan, and hugged him tightly, "Xu Yunfan!"
This cry carried with it the joy of regaining what had been lost, yet also the fear that had not yet dissipated.
"It hurts so much! Run'er, I was hacked!" Xu Yunfan pressed all his weight on Qin Run, urging him, "Hurry back to the city, I need to see a doctor. I lost a lot of blood, and now I'm probably dizzy and dizzy. Damn, I killed people because they hacked me. Don't be afraid, your husband is not a murderer."
"I know you're not. Stop talking. I'll take you back to the city." Qin Run called Xiao Hengzhi, "Father, come and help."
