Chapter 621 Past Events

Huang County.

The dark night is quiet, and the sea breeze blows on the pier, carrying a faint fishy smell.

As a maritime terminal, ships come and go constantly. It's only late at night that most of the boats stop.

Qi State was very interested in fish and salt. There was a salt farm right next to the dock.

But at this time, the salt field was deserted, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The door opened, and the hurried footsteps of several people disturbed the tranquility of the salt field.

The leader was carrying a box and had just gotten off the ship. His face was not very good. It's just that it's calm and tight.

"Boss, what should we do next?"

The leader of King Qi's guards always carried the box behind him and never relaxed. He understood the importance of the contents of this box to Qi State.

"Go get some food first, settle down, and wait for orders from above."

"But how long will it take?"

"Maybe soon."

When the leader of the Guards said this, he actually had no confidence in his heart. Because although King Qi ordered him to bring the box out, he did not inform him who would come to pick it up.

The Tian family is quite large and has many internal factions.

At that time, Tian Qi killed Prince Tu and destroyed the Gao and Guo families, which led to the weakening of the internal ruling power of Qi.

The Tian family was passed down to Tian Chengzi's generation. Tian Heng suffered from the fact that the Tian family was not prosperous and could not replace the old princes of Qi. In order to strengthen the Tian family, he opened the gate of the harem and allowed his retainers to come and go at will. Overnight, more people came out. He has more than seventy sons.

Although these people could not inherit the throne, they could help the Tian family control the court, counties and counties. Later, Tian Chengzi killed the Bao, Yan and other clans, completed the replacement of internal ruling forces, and laid the foundation for the Tian family to succeed Qi.

Now, Qin's army has swept across the world, and the old order within each country has been broken.

People have different minds, and even people with the same bloodline may not be trustworthy, let alone those who are not connected by blood.

Maybe even King Qi himself doesn't know who to entrust this box to?

However, the few Jixia soldiers beside the leader of the guards did not think so much.

"I saw salted fish drying outside, so I went to get a few and cooked them to make up the remaining pancakes. It was enough to eat."

Several Jixia soldiers went out and were busy.

The leader of the guards sat down, surrounded by piles of dried salt.

His thoughts are complicated and he thinks more. Although Qi's power is not weak now, it has become a corner of the world.

When the Qin army comes, maybe Qi will be destroyed.

In view of this, King Qi ordered him to take the box out of the Tooth-gnawing Prison. It is because we understand that the stronger the fortress is under the front of the Qin army, the more it will blink.

Put it in the Fang-gnawing Prison, and the forces like Luowang can't get it out at all. It was risky to bring him out, but the urgent situation made King Qi feel that he had to do it.

The smell of soup wafted in, and the leader of the guards shouted.

"Taste the taste first. These salted fish may not be salted thoroughly. You need to add some salt."

The leader of the Guards said something but received no response. Wary in his heart, he carried the box and walked out.

But under the dark night, next to the pottery cauldron for cooking fish, a dead soldier from Jixia was already lying down. Several others were scattered nearby and died.

The leader of the guards was shocked. He went over to check and saw that these Jixia soldiers were all killed with one blow. Obviously, these Jixia soldiers were secretly assassinated while collecting firewood, water, and lighting fires.

Although the other party's methods were not upright, these Jixia soldiers were all well-educated. They were unable to warn others before they died, which shows that this assassin's assassination skills are superb.

The most important thing is that the guard leader recognized the sword wounds on these Jixia soldiers.

"Black and white Xuanjian!"

At this sound, the assassin holding the black and white swords landed on the thatched roof of the kitchen. Under the moonlight, his long hair was messy, and his young face had a hint of amusement.

"Do you recognize this sword?"

The leader of the guards stood up and looked up at the young assassin who was less than three feet away in front of him.

"I have met the previous owner of this sword and fought against him."

As he spoke, the leader of the guards stroked his chest. The fork-shaped wound on his chest was still aching.

"Owner?"

Everyone in the net is a sword slave, and the young swordsman is a little unfamiliar with this term.

The leader of the guards smiled with continued disdain.

"Back then, Lin Luhou killed the Luowang assassins from the Six Kingdoms of Shandong. By the way, many nobles from the six countries were also implicated. The former owner of this sword was one of the swords in Lin Luhou's hands."

As he spoke, the guard leader raised his knife and pointed it at the young assassin.

"After Lin Luhou left, Xuan Jian has been in the dust for many years and has not appeared in the world. Now in this world, I want to ask, have you inherited the ambition of the former master of this sword, or have you fallen into the trap?"

"Heaven and earth will be destroyed, demons and monsters!"

After saying that, the young assassin crossed his swords in his hands, came down from the height, and launched a slash with the sword glowing!

"Is that so?"

The leader of the guards looked at the familiar sword move and raised the long sword in his hand, just like before.

After so many years, the cultivation of the leader of the Guards is no longer what it was back then. At first, he was defeated by this move.

But this time, it was different.

The long knife in his hand collided with the black and white Xuanjian, and a sizzling fire broke out.

In just a moment, the knife and sword left.

The leader of the guards quickly changed his position and faced the young assassin. This opponent is not much different from Xuan Jian back then.

With such cultivation at such a young age, no wonder Luo Wang would give this sword to him.

But, who is he?

The guard leader didn't have time to think. The young assassin kicked his legs and moved forward, facing him directly.

Nearby, the young assassin's swords were intertwined and he struck repeatedly.

The momentum was strong and the movements were sharp, completely different from before.

The leader of the guards could only resist continuously under the opponent's continuous attacks, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.

Finally, when the young assassin's sword power was exhausted, the leader of the guards raised his long sword and slashed it away. The sword was like a half moon.

The young assassin smiled and raised his white blade to block the blade, but he couldn't resist the force of the blade and took several steps back.

The leader of the guards did not miss this opportunity, slashed with his long sword, and headed towards the young assassin, but saw a strange smile on the other person's face.

It's like prey fell into a trap.

wrong!

The leader of the guards was alert, something was wrong with this position.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and another black shadow emerged from behind the wall. Like a wild beast that had been hiding for a long time, a sword stabbed the guard leader in the back.

With a chill rising behind him, the leader of the guards hurriedly stopped his sword, trying to dodge the sword.

But at this time, the young assassin came with a trick, and under attack from both sides, the leader of the guards was seriously injured.

The long knife was inserted into the ground, stopping his decline. The leader of the guards knelt on the ground and looked at the other masked assassin and the sword in his hand.

"Stunning Salamander!"

Xuanjian and Jingyu are actually here!

This secret assassination method is really the original style of Luo Wang.

This familiar feeling, the snare finally turned into the original snare.

"It seems that Luo Wang is finally back after so many years of twists and turns!"

"A dragnet that penetrates all holes."

The young assassin's face was full of pride as a first-class assassin.

"Is it?"

Even though he was seriously injured, the leader of the Guards still couldn't help but sneer.

"Then what do the people who let the beast out of the snare want to do?"

Even the person who asked the question has no answer to this question. The guard leader supported his body and stood up again, feeling the piercing pain of the wound as the blood leaked out. Facing the fatal threat, he couldn't help but think of the feared name in his heart.

Lin Luhou!
