The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 144 Military Crossbow
"Ok!"

Nodding his head calmly, Pei Wende walked quickly to the gate before the little green snake noticed his little move.

Then a scene that surprised Pei Wende happened, the door on the road in front of him was actually ajar, and he just pushed it lightly, and it was opened directly.

"Did something happen?"

Instinctively looking along the crack of the door, Pei Wende didn't find anything unusual.

The singers and dancers in the courtyard were still singing and dancing, and all kinds of wonderful juggling performances attracted the attention of most people in the mansion.

Except that most of the onlookers and applauds were big and thick men, this was no different from those juggling performances in the streets and alleys outside.

However, the above is only from Pei Wende's perspective.

The performance in the mansion not only attracted those big and three burly men, but also immediately attracted the attention of the little green snake.

Especially the exotic belly dance in the middle, and the performance of snake players playing the flute and fighting snakes, made the little green snake forget his previous anger all of a sudden.

On the contrary, Pei Wende, who came from the 21st century, didn't show much surprise when he saw the performance of belly dancer and snake player.

On the contrary, there is only one thought in Pei Wende's mind now - is this juggling group really good at playing?

Juggling like the sword-swallowing and fire-breathing jugglers before can still be regarded as "local performances".

But the "professions" of snake-player and belly dancer obviously did not belong to the "local performances" of the Tang Dynasty.

In this regard, Pei Wende can only feel that the Tang Dynasty is indeed worthy of being the most glorious country in this era, and it is the peak feudal dynasty known as "the dynasty of all nations".

Even if it has declined to the end of the dynasty, it still attracts the worship and admiration of countless outsiders.

"Come on, let's go and see."

Too lazy to think about why the door was open, Pei Wende crossed the corridor in three steps at a time, and quietly hid in the darkness before anyone found him.

......................................................................................................

When Pei Wende pushed open the door and stepped into the mansion.

Li Gang, disguised as a servant, has reached the deepest part of the house.

Relying on his blindfold and supernatural powers, all those who noticed Li Gang's abnormality along the way were all fixed by him with the body-fixing method.

It is precisely because of this that Li Gang's aboveboard "lurking" along the way did not alarm anyone, and the performances and juggling in the front yard were still going on in full swing.

"Are you hiding here?"

It didn't take a moment for Li Gang, who was standing at the end of the mansion, to look in the direction of the main house. His sharp eyes seemed to see the situation inside through the gate.

call!
Strangely, when Li Gang was about to step forward, a gust of wind suddenly blew the door open.

In the next second, an old man with white beard and hair slowly came out of the door, and stared at Li Gang who was not far away with an indescribable look.

"Are you the one who killed Chen Zhengdao?"

Li Gang frowned slightly as he didn't notice any evil spirit on the old man.

"Chen Zhengdao?"

Also frowning slightly, the old man couldn't help asking back when he looked at Li Gang who had "I'm not easy to mess with" written all over his body.

"Didn't you come to kill me?"

Keenly sensed that something was wrong, but Li Gang thought about it for a while, and said firmly.

"Whether to kill you or not depends on what you have done."

Regardless of whether there was anything tricky in the process, Li Gang broke into this place with the mentality of "killing first and playing later". He was already mentally prepared to be an enemy of everyone in the mansion.

"What have you done?"

Hearing what Li Gang said, the old man in the deep city also obviously noticed something was wrong.

But things have come to this point, and he also has no room for turning back.

"It doesn't matter what I did, what matters is that you came here."

He is obviously a mortal, but when facing Li Gang's strong aura, the old man's performance is not inferior at all.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the newly appointed Chenshi!"

It was clearly a questioning sentence pattern, but the old man adopted an affirmative tone here.

That kind of determined performance, as if he had seen Li Gang's identity a long time ago, and had already made preparations to meet him.

"But you were able to find this out so quickly, which is a bit beyond my expectation."

As soon as this remark came out, Li Gang's pupils suddenly constricted.

The old man seemed to have mistook the "Chen Zhengdao" in Li Gang's mouth for the former Si Chenshi, and then regarded his arrival as investigating the cause of the former Si Chenshi's death.

Although it is not clear how the old man determined his identity, Li Gang, who has a superior mind, still maintains his superficial calmness.

Li Gang's intuition told him that he seemed to be involved in a well-designed trap and conspiracy.

"It's a pity that you came here alone, so you are destined to die here today!"

Hearing this, Li Gang, who had a premonition of the crisis, took a step back instinctively.

Su!
In an instant, a powerful crossbow shot out of the darkness, just passing by Li Gang who was dodging.

Bang!
Li Gang looked in horror, and saw a crossbow arrow half a person's height pierced through the courtyard wall and inserted into the stone slab behind the wall.

Such an astonishing crossbow bolt, even an elephant can pierce it with one arrow.

Thanks to Li Gang's timely dodge, otherwise he would not think that he is stronger than the elephant's physique.

The most important thing is that the old man who had been prepared for a long time arranged a large group of jugglers in the front yard, and the movement in the back yard was directly covered by the noise in the front yard.

In other words, even if Li Gang had just been shot here, no one would have noticed his existence.

"It was you who killed the former Sichen envoy?"

A flash of enlightenment flashed in his mind for an instant, Li Gang deliberately lowered his voice and asked.

Because the strong crossbow prepared by the old man was obviously aimed at practitioners, and the arrangement in the front yard was also to cover up the movement of shooting him.

Such a skilled and sophisticated arrangement can only show that he has done similar things before.

"It's not important, the important thing is that you will die here today!"

Without any intention of answering Li Gang's question, the old man who already knew that there was a misunderstanding in it shouted desperately.

No matter what misunderstanding there is, as long as Li Gang's identity remains unchanged, the old man's killing intent will not be weakened in the slightest.

Killing one is killing, killing two is killing...

Ever since he killed the former Sichen Envoy, the old man has already made up his mind and made preparations for everything.

"Can you escape one crossbow, can you escape ten crossbows?!"

Li Gang, who was shocked in his heart, suddenly widened his eyes, and looked at the stern-faced old man with disbelief.

"Ten crossbows?"

"Are the current governors and officials in Tanzhou all gangsters?!"

It's no wonder that Li Gang is so unbelievable, it's because the number of crossbows held by the old man is too exaggerated.

To make a metaphor that may not be appropriate, the concept of a crossbow in this era is roughly equivalent to a heavy machine gun in the 21st century.

Even in the well-disciplined and well-armed Datang Army, it is something of the level of a big killer.

And such a thing, there are actually privately owned crosses among the people.

It is conceivable that once the central court discovers this situation, the best end for the governor of Tanzhou is to be killed.
