The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 169: The Opportunity to Kill at the Birthday Feast [Part 2]

“It’s the Breaking-Armor Troop.”

The roar in front confirmed Sun Shaozong's conjecture and completely erased all his hesitation, leaving only one thought in his heart. He cannot stay here any longer!

That Breaking-Armor Troop was a limited supply item for the military.

No matter where they came from, the forces behind these assassins were definitely not easy targets!

And this matter obviously has nothing to do with him. Just now, he had loudly warned, which was already his way of doing justice.

So Sun Shaozong tightened his horse's belly with both legs, freeing up one hand and giving it a light or heavy push around the horse's neck with the intention of keeping the horse close to the edge to avoid the miscellaneous army ahead.

Unexpectedly, with this push, the sturdy black horse took two oblique steps and stumbled with a sudden thud!

Fortunately, Sun Shaozong reacted quickly and rolled over in time to avoid it. Otherwise, it would not be a person riding a horse, but a horse riding a person.

However, he climbed over more than two miles with inertia and entered the attack range of several soldiers in the Huben Camp.

He saw those military men shouting, ”Who's there?”, but the guy in hand had already greeted them head-on!

Sun Shaozong dodged and quickly shouted, "Don't misunderstand me, we are on the same team.”

Unexpectedly, before the words could be heard, a tiger-headed army man stumbled two steps and fell directly in front of Sun Shaozong!

Hmm…

What does it mean again?

“Your Excellency!”

“This guy wanted to kill the Captain.”

“Take revenge for the Captain.”

Sun Shaozong was inexplicable, but the remaining few soldiers turned red in their eyes. Regardless of what he had just shouted, they raised their steel knives and surrounded him again!

As Sun Shaozong saw the chaotic knife cleaving and vowing to dismember himself, he couldn't help but feel some anger in his heart. He pulled off his fox skin cloak from behind and put it on his arm, dodged and held onto one of their arms, raised up, and pushed him forward, using the force to push the men who were rushing towards him. He couldn't help but cross his arms.

Just listening to the clanging of gold and iron, he held five of the steel knives steadily and threw them up in mid-air!

Sun Shaozong took advantage of the situation and pounced forward, with his shoulder resting on the chests of the two military men. Immediately, the two military men broke their bones and tendons and then flew horizontally into the distance.

At this moment, there was another commotion among the Dragon Guards in front of them. Someone shouted in panic, "There’s poison on the arrow, there’s poison on the arrow.”

Damn!

So that's what happened!

No wonder that horse got shot in the back and suddenly turned into a soft-legged shrimp!

With such thoughts in mind, Sun Shaozong lowered his head, glanced at the Huben Captain, and found a poisonous arrow on his left arm.

So he quickly explained, "Your Lieutenant was poisoned and has nothing to do with me.”

However, before he could finish speaking, another wave of arrows slanted toward him!

Knowing that these arrows were poisonous, how dare Sun Shaozong be careless?

Without thinking about it, he pulled up the body of Captain Huben, holding it in his arms like a meat shield.

“Captain!”

“Quickly put him down... Uh~”

The soldiers of Huben Camp were furious at the sight, and their roars were mixed with some screams.

But how could Sun Shaozong still care so much?

Holding the body of Captain Huben, he trotted quickly and found shelter under a dark eave.

At this time, the disguised Yamen Guards and sedan bearers had already removed their disguises and pulled out various weapons from the sedan chair. They rushed forward, shouting and fighting with the people of the Dragon Guard and the Huben Camp.

And behind the Dragon Guard was already a group of black-clad men covering themselves in the darkness!

In the beginning, Sun Shaozong thought that these guys must have an IQ problem, so they would give up long-range attacks and not use them. They were engaging in close combat.

But when both sides were fighting together, he realized that not only were these assassins all skilled, but their weapons were also coated with poison. Any scratch on their skin would instantly cause paralysis in their hands and feet.

Therefore, as soon as the battle broke out, the people of the Dragon Guard and the Huben Camp fell behind!

This was still because Sun Shaozong's reminder prevented them from reaching the center of the ambush in time. Otherwise, if the poisoned arrow had been fired from both sides instead of from the oblique front, this miscellaneous army would have been unable to carry it!

Watching this scene, Sun Shaozong's heart was even more determined. If it were a real battle, he wouldn't be too afraid, but this poisonous arrow…

Taking advantage of the massacre on both sides, no one noticed him for a moment. He held the body of Captain Huben and carefully sneaked back against the wall.

At this moment, Captain Huben, who had always thought he was dead, suddenly looked up and moaned, "You... You are Assistant Magistrate Sun from the Central Judicial Office...”

Sun Shaozong was so shocked that he almost threw him out.

Later on, seeing that it was just a few moments before his death, he breathed a sigh of relief again. Thinking that this person had also become his shield, he casually asked, "If you have any last words, quickly say them. I will do my best to help you.”

“Lord Sun...”

Captain Huben suddenly grabbed Sun Shaozong's shoulder and said with all his might, "Prince Yizhong... the Prince is in the sedan chair. If he... if he doesn’t escape, you and I... are both plagiarists... The crime of execution..."

Without waiting to finish, he completely lost his vitality.

Damn!

A reasonable person indeed never pays off!

Besides, why did they let Prince Yizhong out?!

He cursed loudly in his heart, but Sun Shaozong still held up his body and rushed out of his hiding place. Everyone in the Huben Camp could recognize him. Shouldn’t there be more people in the Dragon Guard who knew him?

If he ran away, and the Dragon Guard survived this battle, he was afraid they would have to pull his whole family together to bear the burden!

Therefore, even for the seven-month-old fetus in Ruan Rong's womb, he could only give it a shot!

However, after Sun Shaozong rushed into the battle group, he did not rush to take action. Instead, he quietly sneaked to his horse and threw the body of Captain Huben, pulling up two horse legs.

Compared to human corpses, horse corpses carried more weight and could better avoid being injured by poisonous blades!

With this horse in hand, Sun Shaozong added a bit of pride and thought that he must first distinguish himself from the enemy. So he looked up and roared, "Sun Shaozong from the Central Judicial Office is here, who dares to fight with me to the death?”

With just one roar, four assassins pounced at him in the darkness!

But Sun Shaozong's response was extremely simple. No matter how many weapons were brought, what weapons were used, or what tactics were used, he only swung the corpse of the horse, and it was a sweeping blow!

After a biting crash, three of the four assassins flew out.

And the remaining one, with its entire right arm like a seat belt, was slung between his waist and abdomen, holding five fingers of the weapon blade, and was stunned to be smashed into eighteen folds!

How could that assassin have seen this, even though he was fearless of death?

He was so scared that he forgot to shout, but after the next second, he didn't have to shout anymore. Because the horse's butt swung back and smashed his skull!

In the blink of an eye, Sun Shaozong quickly killed four people, but without stopping for a moment, he searched for the assassin's dense spot and rushed toward them.

No matter what kind of expert he was, he rounded the horse hammer and sent out the unparalleled strange power. In addition to yielding and evading, the opponent would only have to endure death obediently!

But those assassins were not fools after all. Seeing such a killing god rushed out, one of them shouted out, "Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow now, and kill this monster!”

Sun Shaozong's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, and now it was time to gamble!
