Chapter 489 Assassination in the military camp
Ling Tianyun just said it casually, but a flash of lightning flashed in Ye Yinfeng's mind, if all this was a conspiracy, then the abnormal performance of these four women could be explained. These four women are just to involve the masters who came out of the military camp to protect the Great Zhou Emperor, they are not the protagonists of this incident, and the protagonists should be someone else. It's just that Ye Yinfeng is puzzled, if someone assassinates in the military camp, then who will be the target of this assassination, will it be Chai Rong, the emperor of the Great Zhou.
"We must hurry back, or your eldest brother's life will be in danger." Ye Yinfeng told Ling Tianyun his guess, faintly he just had such an ominous premonition, and he couldn't be sure for a while whether the purpose of the other party's action was the Great Zhou Emperor Chai Rong.
"So what to do here, if they really just want to attract the masters in the barracks, then all this should be a conspiracy. If it is really aimed at my eldest brother, then who leaked the secret of my eldest brother's personal expedition, it is difficult for there to be a spy in the military camp. When Ling Tianyun heard this, he said in a low voice with a heavy face. The two of them deliberately lowered their voices so low that only the two of them could hear them.
"No matter what, the old man and the other three can handle it, let's go back first. Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable, there are not many martial arts masters in the barracks, this time someone should have leaked secrets, otherwise there would be no one with such a careful plan. There must be something big happening in the barracks, and I'm afraid it will be too late. ”
When Ling Tianyun heard this, his eyes rolled and he whispered again, "Do we want to talk to Senior Fu so that they can make a decision as soon as possible." ”
"No, it's just speculation now, who knows what else these four women will do, and if they take the liberty of picking things out, it may cause new conspiracy and chaos. Senior Fu and the three hidden guards can handle the affairs here, so let's rush back first and prepare in advance. If it weren't for my guess, these four women were assassins, and they couldn't be allowed to leave so easily. But I'm sure that if the two sides make a move, the winner should be five or five. Ye Yinfeng swept the four women on the opposite side and said hurriedly towards Ling Tianyun. Because he always felt that this matter would not be so simple, and what he wanted to get, how could the other party not think of it, they should have a trick, otherwise they would not be so calm.
"Senior Fu, you are old here, let's go back to the camp first." Ling Tianyun said to Fu Jing, since Fu Jing and the others appeared here, then he and Ye Yinfeng had nothing to do for the time being, as for how to deal with these four women, it was Fu Jing's business. They won't be able to do much to stay here, and they are afraid that they will drag Fu Jing and the others back.
"That's very good, Ling Gongzi and Ye Gongzi will go back to the camp first." Fu Jing didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and these four women no longer posed a threat to them, and letting them go was the best way.
"Eldest sister, these two can't let them leave, I'm afraid they see some clues." Among the four women, Ruozhi, who has always been calm and calm, whispered to Ning Sheng. And Qianqian, who had fought with Ling Tianyun, also looked at them with a pair of beautiful eyes, as if she was really interested in them.
"It doesn't matter, with their cultivation, they won't be able to make any waves. If they want to leave, let them go. We're halfway there, and these two teenagers aren't enough to influence our big picture. Ning Tang said calmly, with her cultivation and knowledge, how could she not see their cultivation. And Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng's cultivation was not worth mentioning in her opinion, but what they had to face was the three men beside Fu Jing who didn't need to be slightly pale.
"Four beautiful sisters, no matter how you say it, you don't know each other, don't you have anything to say to our brothers." Ling Tianyun lifted the treasure knife and carried it on his shoulder, his appearance of smiling was simply a scoundrel's style. Of course, he ignored the murderous gaze that Qianqian shot, and the scoundrel look on his face made people feel disgusted.
Ye Yinfeng had a helpless look on his face, and he gently moved his body a few steps, as if he didn't know Ling Tianyun. For Ling Tianyun's rogue move, of course he knew that there was his intention. It's just that Ye Yinfeng felt that his face had not yet reached the thickness of Ling Tianyun, and he didn't forget to tease the four girls before leaving.
"Eldest sister, do you want me to catch up and teach that Ling family kid a good lesson. With a scoundrel-like face, he wanted to beat him up when he saw it, the information he got before, this Ling Tianyun shouldn't be such a person. Qianqian's eyes shot a cold glint and said to Ning Tang.
"Forget it, the two of them want you to chase after you, and when the time comes, we will take you down, and our plan will be revealed. These two little guys are getting more and more liked. Ning Sheng looked at the backs of the two departing teenagers, and Sheng Tong condensed into a line and said to Qianqian, but at the same time, her gaze still fell on Fu Jing's body and did not shift.
In the Great Zhou military camp, the torches lit the entire military camp as bright as day, and the billowing smoke went straight to the sky. Dozens of cauldrons were exposed, the tumbling white steam and the flames rushing at the bottom of the pot became the unique scenery in this barracks, and the men in the army turned the big shovels, and the time for dinner was approaching.
When Ye Yinfeng and Ling Tianyun returned to the barracks, they happened to see a group of soldiers lining up to receive their dinner. Although the area around the barracks is heavily guarded, the barracks is full of people, and it is often at this time that the defense in the barracks is the weakest.
The two of them quickly walked past the shouting soldiers, and they inspected one tent after another, but found nothing out of the ordinary. This was a surprise to them, and if the enemy's plan was to take advantage of the departure of the three palace masters to launch an assassination, then this should be the best opportunity.
They searched through the barracks and still didn't find any suspicious people, and at the same time, they didn't find any unusual behavior from the sergeant of the Great Zhou. This made them very puzzled, and they couldn't help but question in their hearts, could their guess be wrong, and maybe the four female killers really didn't come for the Great Zhou military camp.
The sergeants of the Great Zhou did not keep them, and in their eyes, the two teenagers who did not know each other were far less attractive than the food in their own bowls. Although Ye Yinfeng and Ling Tianyun were dressed in civilian clothes, they were particularly conspicuous among this group of armored and helmeted sergeants, but none of the soldiers would interrogate them. The Great Zhou army was known for its strict military discipline and brave combat, and of course they would not have known that these two seemingly ordinary teenagers would be spies who had infiltrated the barracks.
This seems to be a bit contradictory, but the soldiers in the Great Zhou military camp are deeply unimpressed, because everyone knows that there are two teenagers in this military camp, and one of them is the righteous brother of General Zhao of the Great Zhou, and this is enough. Therefore, Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng were able to pass through this military camp unimpeded, without any interrogation.
Chai Rong's camp was in the center of the Great Zhou military camp, and Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng quickly found this place. The guards in front of the tent recognized them and let them in on their own without informing them. Before they had even set foot in the tent, they heard a burst of heroic laughter from the tent.
"You're back, come over quickly, someone in the army has caught some game today, let's try it." As soon as Chai Rong saw Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng entering the camp, he greeted them. They didn't have any worries because of the surprise of the two, obviously they were confident in sending Fu Jing and the others.
As soon as the two entered the camp tent, they reported to Chai Rong that they were safe, and in addition to Chai Rong in this camp, of course, there were also senior generals in the Great Zhou army on this road. To their surprise, even Gao Chengde and Ma Chenghui were there, these two were obviously a little restrained, they couldn't let go, and they ate more gently.
"It's good that you come back safely, it's all right." Zhao Kuangyin wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth and asked Ling Tianyun. Other generals also stepped forward to greet them, no wonder they were all good words about returning safely. Ma Chenghui and Gao Chengde just nodded slightly and didn't speak, but everything was enough.
Ling Tianyun recounted what had happened, but when he wanted to tell his guess, he was stopped by Ye Yinfeng with a look. After all, this is just speculation, and it has not been confirmed, and after saying it, it will inevitably make people panic, and second, after they say it, if there are spies in this military camp, they will inevitably startle the snake.
There were a few gongs outside the tent, and it should be the time for the guard team outside the tent to patrol and change shifts. The barracks were patrolled by squads of non-commissioned officers on all sides, and each shift was the same, and there were some secret posts around the barracks.
Ye Yinfeng felt a little familiar with this, which reminded him of the time when he was in the Zhang family in Raozhou, when the Zhang family's nursing home also took turns to change shifts. Although the Zhang family's nursing home cannot be compared with the current Great Zhou Army, there are some similarities to Ye Yinfeng's feelings.
After a while, the feeling in Ye Yinfeng's heart became stronger and stronger, because he himself was taking advantage of the change of shifts of the patrols to infiltrate the Zhang family. However, he did not say anything, and he kept a close eye on the situation outside the camp, because he felt that if the Assassins did not seize this opportunity, it would be difficult for these Assassins who were targeting some people in the Great Zhou military camp to have a chance to blend into the camp.
A gust of wind and clouds were like a big meal, and everyone touched their stomachs happily. It turned out that these wild meats were all brought back by Gao Chengde and his people from hunting, and Chai Rong remembered his merit in breaking through the Tianjing Pass, so he and Ma Chenghui were also called in to dine together, otherwise with the identity of the two of them, they still did not have the qualifications to dine together with the Emperor of the Great Zhou.
Just as the generals were eating and leaving, a scream came from outside the tent. The scream, like a large stone thrown into a quiet deep pool, immediately stirred up a thousand waves. Outside the tent, there were even loud footsteps, and the voices of shouting and denouncing rose and fell with each other.
"General Yu, one of the adjutant generals in the Xiying Jiazi team has been assassinated and has died." The curtain outside the tent was lifted, and from there rushed a soldier with a panicked face and reported to the generals in the tent.
"You wait for the quick deal with it, catch the assassin immediately, and kill him if he resists." Chai Rong's face sank, and he ordered the generals beside him. With that command, the generals of the Great Zhou hurriedly rushed out of the tent, and at this time their state of mind was already extremely low, and there were assassins in such a well-guarded military camp.
There was no surprise on Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng's faces, because they had already guessed all of this. It's just that they didn't expect that a battalion lieutenant general would be assassinated. However, the senior generals in the army were unharmed, and it is reasonable that even an ordinary general was assassinated.
The other generals in the camp all rushed out, leaving only Zhao Kuangyin, Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng standing beside Chai Rong. At this time, Chai Rong's face was gloomy, and he couldn't see what this son of heaven was thinking in his heart. For a while, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and no one spoke.
