After leaving the assassination scene at the city gate, Zhang Tie was taken to a castle in the city and served delicious food and drinks, but he was not allowed to leave. There were people watching him...
This is Starlight Castle, an important military base in Golden Crow City and a stronghold of the Golden Crow Merchant Group. It is tightly guarded. The castle is filled with elite warriors and is densely packed with heavy weapons. If you are not a knight and want to rush out with force, It's really not an easy thing.
It would be a joke if he started fighting with his own family in Golden Crow City with a different face.
According to the identity he made up for himself, Zhang Tie is now a wandering Taixia warrior with no family or sect, and not much face, so he listens to the arrangements in Golden Crow City with peace of mind, in this starlight He waited in the fort for the big shots in Golden Crow City to come and meet him.
This is a living room in Starlight Castle. The living room is simply decorated. There is a map of Youzhou hanging on the wall. There are several chairs and a table in the room. There is a potted plant on the table. Because Zhang Tie is here, the person who brought him here is still here. I specially ordered two plates of fruit to be placed on the table.
Two guards were fighting outside the door of the living room. There was a window on the wall of the living room. It was small and square, more like a shooting hole, but it could see the Golden Crow City.
Zhang Tie stood at the window of the living room, looking at Golden Crow City and waiting for someone from his family to arrive.
Zhang Tie also knew that the timing of his attack was too coincidental. No wonder the people in Golden Crow City had other ideas. If it were him, he would probably have thought about it when the assassin took action. At the critical moment, by chance, someone blocked the assassin's attack. Could this be a game
Of course, Zhang Tie knew it well and was able to save his father at the critical moment. It can only be said that the Zhang family has done good deeds and accumulated virtues for many years. God is blessing the Zhang family and does not want to see any more tragedies happen to the Zhang family. This is why in the underworld By mistake. Let yourself take action to break the killing situation.
Thinking back carefully about the scene at that time, I thought about what would happen if only one of those poisonous needles and stings hit my father. Zhang Tie himself broke into a cold sweat.
Standing in the room, when the wind blew from the window, the cold sweat on Zhang Tie's body dried up, but his heart became even colder.
My father is just a small lord of Golden Crow City. There is no serious connection with the outside world. To put it bluntly, it is true. If it were not related to himself and the Golden Crow Business Group, with his father's identity and temper, it would not be worth it for someone to send such a dead soldier killer to get him. Life. In this way, the target of the people behind the two killers became obvious.
Apart from himself and the Golden Crow Business Group, there will be no one else. Although such an assassination would have an impact on the Golden Crow Merchant Group, because my father had almost no involvement in the affairs of the Golden Crow Merchant Group, and there was always a layer of separation. Therefore, the impact is limited. Taken together, the possibility of targeting yourself is the greatest.
The hatred for killing his father is irreconcilable. If the news of his father's death comes, can he still wander around in the "Diyuan Realm" with peace of mind? If you sit back and ignore it. How do people in the world view themselves? Together. This Jinwu Merchant Group and the entire Huaiyuantang may not be able to hold their heads high. And if you return to Taixia, then as soon as you show up, the other party will naturally have a kill waiting for you.
This is what the people behind the scenes want to achieve, which is to force themselves out, and at the same time, to attack the reputation and influence of the now prosperous Jinwu Business Group and Huaiyuantang.
After understanding this, Zhang Tie was almost certain that the person behind this was definitely the person who framed him in the first place.
Who is that person? One of the Nine Qings of Taixia.
The two killers did not expect to leave Golden Crow City alive after taking action. The poison they used to kill themselves was even more overbearing. In an instant, it could turn a person into a pool of blood, leaving nothing behind. I can't ask anything,
It was just that the person behind it didn't expect that he would accidentally break up the killing situation, and that he had contact with one of the two killers before they turned into a pool of blood.
What the person behind the scenes never imagined was that with his own attainments in the art of soul-stirring, in that short contact, before the killer died and his brain was completely dissolved by the poison, he could still recover from the situation that had already happened. The dead killer gained something in his mind.
Memories are read from front to back.
During that brief contact, Zhang Tie learned that the two killers had been living outside Jinwu City for more than a month. They lived in a hotel outside the city and wandered around Jinwu City every day, ostensibly looking for business opportunities. , but actually waiting for the order to take action.
They didn't know who gave the order, and they had no contacts in Golden Crow City. It was just that the first of the two killers to rush out carried a small crystal remote sensing communication device with him. The final order would be sent from the remote sensing device. came from the crystal device.
Just an hour before the assassination, the order came, with only six simple words - within an hour, Dongmen...
After receiving the order, they destroyed the remote sensing communication crystal, and then waited for their father to appear near the east gate of Golden Crow City, and as expected, his father appeared within an hour.
Then the assassination happened, it was that simple.
And looking back further in the memory, these two killers came from Zhongzhou, one of the nine great states of Taixia. The two people didn't even have names, only a four-digit code name. One person's code name was Jia 137, and the other person's code name was Jia 137. It's A224, two people from a mysterious killer organization. Three months ago, they received a mission from the organization. The mission was to come to Jinwu City in Youzhou and assassinate the city leader Ping.
The mission included a photo and introduction of his father, as well as two brand-new fake identities and a small amount of funds. After receiving the mission, the two people set off for Golden Crow City, and have been there ever since they arrived. Waiting for the order from the remote sensing communication crystal they carry with them.
The killer organization that the two people came from was very terrifying, and the tightness of its organization was beyond anyone's imagination. After receiving the mission, the two people never had contact with anyone in the organization. This is their first mission and the last mission in that person's memory. Zhang Tie saw a gloomy face. That face was called General Manager Qi. It was General Manager Qi who assigned this mission.
If the killer's brain was intact, Zhang Tie might be able to trace more things from that person's brain, but in the end, after General Manager Qi appeared. The man's brain tissue was corroded by the poison, and Zhang Tie's secret method of Blood Soul Temple was also forced to interrupt.
The location of a base of that killer organization in Zhongzhou. And that gloomy horse face of Manager Qi - this is Zhang Tie's gain. Although it was very little, it allowed Zhang Tie to obtain a very crucial piece of information. The figure of the person who framed him in the first place was shrouded in fog. It finally became clearer, allowing Zhang Tie to finally grab a bit of the tail of the black hand.
…
While Zhang Tie was waiting quietly, familiar footsteps sounded in the corridor outside.
The footsteps were still hundreds of meters away from Zhang Tie's room, and Zhang Tie had already heard the identity of the person coming from the footsteps - his brother, Zhang Yang.
Unexpectedly, it was his brother Zhang Yang who came here in person. Zhang Tie was slightly excited. Thinking carefully about such a big thing as his father's assassination, considering his brother's temper and character. If there are any clues, you must ask them personally.
There were two footsteps beside Zhang Yang, these two footsteps. One of them had been in this room just now, and the other one, just by the sound of footsteps, Zhang Tie knew that it was a knight, a black iron knight, but not a knight from Huaiyuantang.
From the sound of a few footsteps. speed and relative position. The knight who walked beside Zhang Yang and deliberately lagged one step behind should be the bodyguard Zhang Yang placed beside him.
The footsteps came slowly and unhurriedly towards this side. Thinking of the pressure that his brother Zhang Yang was under at the moment, Zhang Tie secretly sighed in his heart.
If my father did not encounter such a thing this time, I could continue to play hide and seek with my brother, but at this time, it would be meaningless to hide my identity in front of my brother. To my brother, Zhang Tie still trusts him. It's okay if some things are exposed appropriately. Moreover, Zhang Tie is also ready to re-establish contact with his brother when he comes back this time.
Thinking like this, although Zhang Tie was still standing in front of the window, his entire appearance slowly changed to look like Zhang Tie's.
…
"... The stunt used by the killer who opened his mouth to spit out a hidden weapon to assassinate the city lord at a critical moment should be a special hidden weapon secret method - the Taotie Soul-Eating Needle. This secret method is very difficult to guard against and allows people to use their hidden weapons at critical moments. The battle energy bursts out from the mouth with nearly ten times the power, and it also has strong penetrating power for the body protection battle energy below the knight level. When it explodes at close range, it is very difficult to resist. If you are not careful, the war spirit level Any master may fall victim to this trick. The only disadvantage of this hidden weapon secret method is that it can only be used once within a few days, and it will be very debilitating after being used once. After the person uses it once without success, he will immediately poison himself. It seems that he already knows that he has no chance. According to the test, the poison used by the two killers to commit suicide was Heisha Huagu Powder hidden in their teeth in advance. People who take this poison to commit suicide are all dead soldiers... "
Zhang Yang walked while listening to the report of the person next to him.
"Do you know that there is a sect or person in Taixia who practices the Taotie Soul-Eating Needle?"
"This secret technique has been lost in Taixia for many years..."
"But that person used a handful of gold coins to block the Taotie Soul-Eating Needle?"
"That person's hidden weapon skills are absolutely superb. He is a master-level hidden weapon master!"
"Two hidden weapon masters appeared at the same time. One wanted to kill and the other wanted to save people. I was a little curious!" A cold smile appeared on Zhang Yang's face.
Then, as soon as he finished saying this, a voice that Zhang Yang had never expected appeared directly in his ears, and even the two people following him didn't notice it.
"Brother, I was the one who saved dad at the city gate today. I didn't expect you to come in person. I'm in the room. You can come in alone..."
This voice, this tone, is not who Zhang Tie is. How could Zhang Yang misremember the voice of his brother Zhang Tie? Just by relying on his feeling, Zhang Yang knew that it was definitely Zhang Tie.
In one hundredth of a second, a look of shock flashed across Zhang Yang's face, and then Zhang Yang's expression returned to normal, and his steps suddenly stopped... ()
