Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 257 Arriving in Kyoto (Part [-])
Wu Chen squatted and walked for more than half an hour to complete the 50-meter road. During this period, he found several fishing lines and brought out several sharp arrows, but he was still worried, and turned to ask the big head in the distance: " Are you feeling better now? Are you still panicking?"

The big head felt it seriously, and shouted: "There is still a little bit."

Wu Chen stood up, frowned and looked around, wondering where this little thing could be?

Where?Right on the back of the hill!
As soon as Wu Chen stood up, he heard movement behind the hill. He yelled: "Get down, don't move!" and rolled to the side of the hill.

Hearing the sound of arrows piercing the sky, dozens of sharp arrows flew out from both sides, aiming at the place where Wu Chen was standing just now.

Wu Chen grabbed a handful of earth and rocks on the hill, stepped on the mountain on this side, and flew into the air. When his body was higher than the hill, he saw the person lying in ambush on this side of the hill, and Wu Chen waved his hand. The rocks and soil clods moved towards those people with strength.

Wu Chen didn't care about the result at all, and fell straight to the ground, and the arrow on the opposite side just hit the place where he had just vacated.

Wu Chen didn't dare to delay, he flew to the other side of the hill, grabbed a handful of rocks and flew into the air again, throwing all his strength at the people in ambush on this side.

All you need is speed!

After landing again, the screams from both sides also stopped. He just breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his head to see that several black-clothed masked men were fighting with Gao Er and the others, surrounded by several people.

Just now, Wu Chen was all focused on the arrows on these two sides, and he didn't pay attention to what was behind him. Now he couldn't help but feel angry when he saw it. He arrived beside these people in the blink of an eye. In the second year of high school, they could only punch and punch clumsily, knocking down the men in black one by one.

The man in black was not without resistance, but in Wu Chen's eyes, they were all in slow motion, not considered dangerous.

After knocking down all the men in black, Wu Chen listened carefully again with bated breath, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, they're all dead."

The big head also breathed a sigh of relief, and consciously got into the carriage first.

Song Gu asked: "Do you want to see the corpses? Maybe there will be special marks on them..."

"There will be no signs, but you can see that their planning is considered thorough, and there is a next step if the plan fails. These ambush people must have been lying behind the hills for some time, and they have to try to cover their breath. It can be seen behind the scenes People who know me very well.”

"Why did they arrange for these people to kill us?" Senior Two asked palely.

"I didn't want to kill you guys, but I wanted to take Big Brother away." After Wu Chen finished speaking, he bent down and removed the black scarf from the man under his feet, and said, "I suspect these people are from the army."

Yu Shian frowned and said, "I want to see the bows and arrows. There are marks on bows and arrows in the army..."

Wu Chen waved his hands and said, "I don't know how to use bows and arrows in the army. I say they are people in the army because they act in a unified manner and cooperate with each other tacitly. I only look at this kind of endurance, which is not something that any servant can have."

Yu Shian nodded and asked:
"Is there no danger over there? Don't move. Song Gu and I will go and have a look. The corpse must not be brought back to Kyoto, so it will be placed on the side of the road. When Cookie and the others pass by, they will definitely see it. He will die naturally. people dealt with it."

……

Sure enough, as Wu Chen expected, these people did not have any marks on their bodies, and their bows, arrows and long knives were not military items.

A few people put the corpses on the side of the road, Wu Chen snorted and said, "The cookie hasn't arrived yet, it means we know we are in danger, and we are waiting to see the excitement."

Yu Shi'an said angrily: "I can't do anything about him for now, if one day he is transferred to the army, let's see how I deal with him!"

Wu Chen chuckled and said, "If you want to deal with him, you need to deal with Chen Zhong first!"

Song Gu frowned and said, "This is not easy."

Xu Damang interrupted: "Since there is nothing wrong, let's continue on our way."

Wu Chen got on the horse and imagined it in his mind. If there was no reminder from the big head, they would walk here leisurely, the horseshoe would drive the fishing line, and the sharp arrow would fly out. Then they will continue to shoot favorable arrows. When they are panicking, they don't know what to do. Suddenly, the ambushing people appear, and dozens of arrows are fired...

Wu Chen knew that as long as he dodged the first sharp arrow, he would be able to leave here. What about the others?In panic, someone will die here.

Wu Chen couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, but he made a serious note in his heart.

……

At dusk on the fourth day, the group finally arrived outside the city gate of Kyoto.

Although there was a small episode on the way, Wu Chen felt quite comfortable on the whole. This time he had time to appreciate the scenery on the side of the road. The original, unaltered beauty of nature made Wu Chen feel comfortable, and said: In the counties and towns of Bianzhou Prefecture, post houses and pavilions face each other on the road, waiting for guests. It can be said that there are hotels, inns, and homestays. Why worry about staying in the mountains when you go out?This made Wu Chen feel extremely relieved.

Wu Chen understood what Lao Hei said, 'the time has come to rejuvenate the country. 'What do you mean, but if there is less business, you won't see so many inns along the way. People have money to travel, and they don't have to worry about food and lodging. What a blessing!
Standing under the city gate of the capital at this time, Wu Chen still felt a little turbulent in his heart. Seeing Wu Chen looking up at the city gate, Yu Shian said proudly: "The four gates of the capital, today we are going to pass through the south gate. , the four city gates are magnificent, look at the majestic soldiers on the walls..."

"Let's go, I'm hungry." The big head opened the curtain and urged.

Wu Chen nodded and followed Yu Shian and Song Gu into the city.

After entering the city, Wu Chen couldn't help being a little surprised. He saw three-story buildings abound in the city of Kyoto, and even five-story buildings dotted among them. The houses on these streets each had flying bridge sills and bead curtains. Candles flickering...

In the previous life, Wu Chen had been to a well-known ancient town, but it was not as grand as this one.

At this time, the senior two and Xu Da's injuries are no longer hindered, and the senior two rode beside Wu Chen, and they continued to introduce: "...the west side of the street is Kangmen Wazi, Brother Dekong will take you for a stroll, it's interesting Indeed, most of the east side of the street are inns, where officials and merchants who come to Beijing all stay here.”

"Then Big Brother and I will find an inn to stay in, so you can reunite with your family as soon as possible." Wu Chen said.

Yu Shi'an smiled and said: "You have a good idea. Those who go out on errands must first go to the palace to face the saint. How can they go home first?"

"But at this time..."

"Then we have to hand over the sign first. If the officials have already rested, we have to rest in the duty room in the palace for one night." Yu Shi'an explained.

Wu Chen looked at Senior Two and Xu Da and asked, "What about you?"

"We need to meet Si Zun." Xu Da sighed.

"What about me? Do I also need to meet Si Zun?"
