Chapter 8, Killing at Night

Suddenly, there was silence outside the door of the post station, and no sound could be heard. Even the wind seemed to be very sensible and chose to leave, leaving only the emptiness like the night.

After waiting for a while, the people in the door expected that the "beggar" outside the door had left, so they laughed in twos and threes.

"Hey, there are really all kinds of weirdos these days."

"That's right, do you still want to cheat? Pretell that if you really want her to come in, don't cut her off.

"I must have escaped with my tail between my legs, walk away, and continue to rest for a while."

The night watchmen yawned or stretched one by one, and turned back to the porter's room.

At this time, there was a "wish" sound in mid-air, and then there was a cracking sound of bricks on the front yard wall, as if an arrow shot into the eaves of the courtyard wall. The vigil, who had just reached the door of the door of the gate, was stunned, and then they were shocked. They picked up their blades again, ran into the courtyard, and looked up one by one in the direction of the courtyard wall.

After a while, a dark shadow jumped on the upper wall out of thin air, and only a vague outline could be seen in the darkness. The black shadow's slender figure stands on the wall, and the clothes move with the wind hunting. A sleeve arrow can be identified on the left arm, and the other hand holds a dagger reflecting the cold light. Although the man's appearance could not be seen clearly, a murderous atmosphere condensed in the air in an instant.

Among the night watchmen at the post station, some panicked people couldn't help shouting: "Come on, come on, there are thieves!"

Another person next to him snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Well, can a little woman turn the world upside down? I don't believe that I can't deal with this bitch. After saying that, raise the knife in your hand and be ready to meet the enemy at any time.

I only heard the dark shadow on the wall of the courtyard and sneered, "I really don't know whether to live or die."

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her left hand, and the sleeve arrow on her wrist made a muffled sound, and a short arrow came out of the air.

Because the sky is too dark, people on the wall of the courtyard can't see clearly, and naturally they can't see the short arrows clearly. Before the night watchman who talked big before had time to react, he just felt a cool breeze coming from his face. Even though he felt a pain in his chest, he screamed sadly and fell to the ground on his back.

When others saw it, they were all terrmented and shouted one after another: "It's killing, the thief is killing. Come on."

Another person rushed to the courtyard wall and roared, "Thieves, dare to act like a murderer!"

I thought that the shadow would only stand on the wall of the courtyard. With the long-distance plot of the sleeve arrow, how could I know that after the other party was in the courtyard, he decisively jumped into the hospital wall and jumped into the hospital. She waved her right dagger and rushed to the night watchman who came forward with exquisite movements and rapid swordsmanship. A series of swords and sonorous sounds, the first night watchman who rushed up almost didn't even scream, so he fell to the ground and couldn't stop twitching.

At this time, the people who were shocked in the front yard and backyard rushed to the scene one after another. They were all surprised to see the scene in front of them. How come so many people couldn't even cope with a female streamer, and even killed them.

"Female thief, don't be rampant. Let's go together."

As someone proposed, the crowd shouted and rushed up and rushed towards the female thief.

The female thief was not afraid at all. She raised her left hand again, shot two arrows in a row, and instantly put down the two people. Then she waved the dagger in her hand and picked out several sword flowers in a row, like an impenetrable net. Several night watchmen in front of him either had no way to get close to him, or forcibly killed the former before he could see the other party's swordsmanship clearly. He had already felt pain in his body and blood splashed everywhere.

After more than a dozen rounds, few people in the post station were either injured and retreated or fell to the ground and moaned.

The female thief approached step by step and was about to come to the door of the main hall.

Just as the night watchman was fighting with the female thief, Li Xin's men also mentioned that they came to the news and rushed to help immediately. Li Xin has been unbearable for a long time. He didn't expect to meet such a capable person here, and the other party is just a female. As a county, how can he sit idly by?

However, with the lights hanging on the porch, Zu Zhao gradually saw the appearance of the female thief. He saw that the female thief was not too old, in her early 20s, and her figure was light and slender. The most eye-catching thing was that there was a shocking scar on her white cheeks. In a moment, he immediately realized that the other party was none other than Xin Qiubai, the female black arrow thief who had fought many times before.

He had to be surprised that the world was so big that he had to meet again here and now, which was really a coincidence.

But what made him think differently, but why is Xin Qiubai alone? That day, after the Taishou Mansion released Xin Qiubai outside the city, it was estimated that Xin Qiubai should meet the main messenger behind the scenes. Now that the county is trapped, the rebels in Changcheng and Guangcheng have become powerful. Xin Qiubai must be a useful place in the south of the county. How can he appear alone in the north of the county?

Not only that, he clearly heard that Xin Qiubai wanted to ask for a bowl of hot rice outside the door. Such measures were like a helpless move. As for killing into the post station in anger now, don't count it.

Li Xin has taken the blade and handed a long sword to Zu Zhao, saying, "This female thief is really unno one. It is bound to send her to the official today." With that, he will lead the entourage to rush up.

Zu Zhao suddenly stepped forward and stopped Li Xin and others. He said seriously, "Brother Xianyan, you can't use a cow knife to kill chickens. First, I will come forward for a while, and I will take him down at one stroke.

Li Xin was a little surprised and at the same time sincerely comforted: "Brother Zu, I think this female thief is very good at it. Now is not the time to be a hero. You and I will join hands to subdue this thief first.

Zu Zhao insisted, "Brother Xianyan, I know this thief. Don't worry, I have my own proportion.

After saying that, despite Li Xin's desire to continue persuasion, he rushed out of the porch and came to the courtyard with his sword.

"You all retreat."

Zui Zhao first shouted to the people in the courtyard.

The people at the post station have long been exhausted. If they continue to fight, I'm afraid that there will be a situation of escape soon. One person fled, everyone fled, and the situation was completely out of control. At this time, since someone is willing to stand up and fight alone with female thieves, it can more or less increase morale, and more importantly, it still gives everyone a chance to take a breath.

Everyone immediately retreated to the edge of the yard. The injured helped each other, and some people also tried to pull those companions who were still moaning away from the center of the yard.

Zu Zhao stepped forward and stood ten steps away from Xin Qiubai. His face was expressionless and his voice was also without any emotion. Xu asked, "Do you still recognize me?"

Xin Qiubai noticed Zu Zhao earlier. At this time, they are so close that they can naturally see each other clearly. Her face became colder and colder, and her almost charming eyes showed an unstoppable murderous intention. She bit her little white teeth and said, "You are Zu Zhao. How can I not remember you?"

Zu Zhao looked carefully at Xin Qiubai and found that although Xin Qiubai exuded a cold temperament as usual, his body was obviously thinner than before, especially his cheeks and skin color, white as snow and as white as paper, and could not see any blood color at all. The girl's red lips look almost the same as the skin color on her face at this moment, pale and dry. Anyone with a little common sense can recognize that the other party is sick when he sees this.

They are all sick, and they can still have such skills. Xin Qiubai is really not an ordinary person.

Zu Zhao thought secretly that he had no intention of taking Xin Qiubai's life, not because Xin Qiubai was a beautiful woman, but because the other party had the clues he needed. After a moment of silence, he said slowly, "I advise you to get away as soon as possible. Even if you are good at it, you are just one person after all. Last time I could capture you, and this time I can do the same.

Xin Qiubai sneered, and her laughter was full of sarcasm. She said, "It's really funny. Last time you bullied the crowd and won by taking advantage of my injury, and this time you relied on the number of people. Don't you proud men have a trace of shame?"

Her words did not embarraszu Zhao, but the others present were very uncomfortable to hear them.

Although Zu Zhao advocates righteousness, it is not such a traditional and stubborn blind worship. For some people who do not understand righteousness at all or do not preach righteousness, this set can only be a burden. Of course, this did not include Xin Qiubai. After all, Xin Qiubai might have shot him with one arrow at the Taishou Mansion that day, but he finally spared his life.

This is also one of the reasons why he looked at Xin Qiubai with new eyes, which can at least confirm that the other party is not a completely murderous villain.

However, according to inside information, it is precisely because the film is too conscientious that many pirated websites spontaneously decided to delete the pirated download address to protect the intellectual property rights of director Jia Zhangke.
