Chapter 709: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
A ray of cold stabbed me, with an incomparably decisive killing intent.
A hideous face was revealed under the helmet, and the attack was swift and fierce, without the slightest drag, obviously after professional assassination training, striving to kill with one blow.
Lu Bu, who was looking at the city, caught a glimpse of the dagger, and his years of experience in fighting made him react in an instant, and his feet retreated sharply, wanting to avoid this blow.
However, when he was retreating, Lu Bu found that the little bell was desperately rushing over, as if he wanted to block in front of him, and use his petite body to block the fatal blow.
Silly daughter!
Lu Bu's eyes were red, and the emotion welling up in his heart was incomprehensible.
What courage it takes for a little girl to risk her life!
Lu Bu, who had already avoided the danger, had to forcibly step forward, if he didn't go, the little bell would really be stabbed to death by this dagger.
He will not allow the tragedy of the previous life to be repeated!
Lu Bu, who stepped forward, grabbed his daughter's back with his left hand, covered the back of his daughter's head with his right hand, hugged him into his arms, and forcibly pulled the little bell back from the brink of death.
The sharp dagger pierced the sleeve robe, cutting a deep bloody hole on Lu Bu's arm, and blood dripped to the ground.
Lu Bu didn't care about the pain in his arm, he looked down at his daughter in his arms, and asked with concern in his tone: "Little Bell, are you okay?" ”
Little Bell looked up, and she was visibly happy to see that her father was fine. When he saw the blood dripping from Lu Bu's arm, the little bell's voice was full of panic: "Daddy, you're injured!" ”
Her daughter was fine, a big stone fell in Lu Bu's heart, she smiled at her daughter, and signaled that she didn't have to worry: "It's okay, it's just a small injury!" ”
The assassin failed to succeed in one blow, and while he was shocked by Lu Bu's agility, a flash of resentment flashed in his eyes, and he slaughtered again.
Fang Cai's assassination was only in an instant, and it was lightning.
Many people failed to react, and now the assassin is still undead, Ma Chao and the others naturally will not let him get his wish, he and Sun Ce pulled out the short knife from the waist of the soldier next to him, and fell at the same time.
Seeing this, the Assassin let out a low cry of 'Damn', and he had to retreat to save his dagger-wielding arm.
At this time, the officials had already reacted and shouted: "There are assassins, escort!" Escort! ”
The Praetorian Guards quickly approached, shrunk into an arc fan, and firmly protected the Son of Heaven in the center. The soldiers on the tower heard the shouts and ran quickly to capture the Assassin.
Seeing that many soldiers were coming, the Assassin knew that his plan had failed, and he hurried back, trying to escape.
However, Ma Chao cut off his retreat first, and Sun Ce also attacked from the front.
Unable to advance or retreat, the Assassins were forced to fight.
In terms of strength, fighting alone is not an opponent for two people, not to mention that the two joined forces, and within twenty rounds, the assassin had already added five or six wounds to his body.
"Don't kill him, capture me alive!"
Lu Bu gave the order in a cold voice, if it weren't for his quick response, I am afraid that he would have become a wisp of dead soul on the Huangquan Road at this moment.
He wanted to see who was behind all this.
When the assassin heard this, he simply turned his heart sideways and risked his life to kill.
And Ma Chao, Sun Ce and a group of soldiers, because of Lu Bu's order, did not dare to kill the killer, and they were a little restrained.
Who would have thought that taking advantage of this opportunity, he would be killed by the assassins all the way to the edge of the city wall, standing against the wall.
However, at this time, he was already at the end of his crossbow, covered in blood, and had no strength to fight.
The soldiers gathered around, and the panting assassin knew that his life was slim, he glanced back at the city, simply abandoned the dagger, and looked at Lu Bu over there, his face was full of violent rage: "Lu thief, I can't kill you today, it's really providence!" Someday will take your head for me. ”
With that, the Assassin leaped forward, throwing his head up from the tower.
Sun Ce hurriedly wanted to reach out and grab it, but it was too late.
Bang!
There was a dull sound.
Sun Ce and the others on the city tower rushed to the edge of the city wall, and looked down, the assassin's head touched the ground first, and he couldn't die anymore.
Failing to catch the assassin, Sun Ce and Ma Chao came to Lu Bu and clenched their fists guiltily in return: "Lord, I am incompetent, so that the assassin fell to his death." ”
At this time, the doctor who was treating Lu Bu's arm was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Da Sima, this thief actually quenched poison on the dagger!" There are many noisy people here, it is inconvenient to diagnose and treat, please go back to your home, and the villain will clean your wounds. ”
Hearing this, Lu Bu's gaze became colder and colder.
Everyone present didn't dare to breathe, for fear of getting into trouble.
Lu Bu's gaze swept over the ministers of the Son of Heaven, as well as those foreign envoys from Fanbang.
Today's events were clearly planned.
Who is it that is so desperate for his life?
Lu Bu was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't say anything, just said coldly, 'Go home', and took his three children down the city tower.
A good military parade, no one expected that it would end in such a way.
Although Lu Bu didn't say anything, everyone knew that this matter would not end so easily.
Back at the mansion, the doctor carefully cleaned Lu Bu's wounds and bandaged them repeatedly, but fortunately, the poison did not penetrate the bones, so there was no fear of life.
It only takes a period of time to recuperate, and you can recover as before.
Lu Bu waved his hand and asked the doctor to go down.
Not long after, Xi Ce, who was recuperating at home, came to the door to ask to see.
After entering the hall, the joke went straight to the topic: "General, I heard that you were injured in the assassination?" ”
"Mr. Lao is concerned, but he is just a rat!"
Lu Bu said seemingly plainly, with a suppressed irritability in his heart. I thought that the forces opposing him in Guanzhong had been purged, but I didn't expect that there would be fish that slipped through the net.
Xi Ce coughed slightly and asked, "Do you know who instructed it?" ”
Lu Bu shook his head, he had also thought about it seriously on the way back, and he really couldn't think of who would kill him at this time.
"Sir, rest assured, I have issued an order to the School Office. Even if you turn the whole Guanzhong upside down, you have to find out to me that you are manipulating the mastermind behind the scenes! ”
Lu Bu has a resolute attitude, this kind of thing, there will be one and two, and there must be no appeasement.
Xi Ce nodded thoughtfully, and he also had different opinions on this matter.
"General, after last year's suppression and raid, the Guanzhong family is now cautious and walking on thin ice, they shouldn't jump out so stupidly, will it be ......?"
The rest of the words were not finished, but Lu Bu understood what he meant.
In today's court, most of them are Lu Bu's henchmen, and the remaining handful is basically not to be worried. To put it bluntly, it's not about you.
If it weren't for them, then in this Chang'an City, those who dare to do it to themselves are estimated to be the last possibility.
Thinking of this, Lu Bu clenched his fists and whispered in his heart: I hope not.
