In the Three Kingdoms period, the opening scene features the killing of Huang Gai, shocking Zhou Yu!
Chapter 17 The Night Is Not Peaceful
Jiangdong, Chaisang.
The fire in Zhou Yu's heart was still burning.
That is the fire in my heart.
It burned him so badly that he felt like his insides were being burned.
The governor's mansion was filled with the smell of medicine.
It's so thick it's impossible to separate.
In the Battle of Red Cliffs, he won in substance but lost in face.
Now, whenever Zhou Yu closes his eyes, all he sees is that image:
Zhao Yu stood at the bow of the ship, slapped Huang Bing away, stepped on the iron chain, carried Cao Cao on his back, and disappeared into the sea of fire.
That was clearly an insult.
Let's rub the intelligence of our Grand Commander of Eastern Wu into the ground.
"Cough cough cough..."
Zhou Yu coughed violently.
The handkerchief was covered in blood.
Lu Meng stood before the couch, head bowed, saying nothing.
"Ziming..."
"Has the arrest warrant been issued?"
"It's been sent."
"Have they sent assassins?"
"It's been sent."
Zhou Yu forced himself to sit up.
His eyes were bloodshot.
"Who was sent?"
"Twelve elite guards under General Gan Ning's command."
They were all water ghosts, skilled at sneaking into camps and killing without a trace. The leader was Gan Ning's sworn brother, nicknamed "Underwater Dragon".
These people only care about money, not their lives.
Zhou Yu nodded.
Lie down again.
Looking at the top of the tent.
"it is good."
"Tell them."
"I can do without Cao Cao's head."
"But Zhao Yu's head must be brought back."
"I want to use his skull as a wine glass."
……
It's drizzling in Gangneung.
The backyard of the prefect's residence.
This was Cao Cao's residence.
High security.
Xu Chu led the Tiger Guards on patrol around the perimeter.
There's a guard every three steps and a sentry every five steps.
It is very rigorous.
But for high-level assassins
The wall was just for show, and the sentries were like blind men.
None of them are of any use.
Twelve dark figures.
Like a gecko, it slithers along the base of the wall.
There was no sound.
They bypassed the main entrance.
They evaded Xu Chu's patrol.
They went straight to the bedroom where the lights were off.
Cao Cao slept soundly because of Zhao Yu.
Before the bed.
A carpet.
Zhao Yu sat cross-legged.
He was holding the newly issued ring-pommel sword in his arms.
With eyes closed.
The system panel flickered faintly in the darkness.
Status: Standby.
[Warning area: 10 zhang in radius.]
Passive Skill: Super Hearing (Activated).
A soft sound rang out.
Zhao Yu's ears twitched.
It wasn't the wind, nor was it a night owl.
It was the sound of a tile slightly misaligned.
Followed by.
It's the sound of breathing.
Although it was deliberately lowered, the system's audio amplification still helped.
Very clear.
Twelve.
Average heart rate: 110.
Adrenaline surged.
[Hostile target detected.]
Quantity: 12.
Location: Rooftop, outside the window, doorway.
Threat Level: C (Minion Threat).
[Task: Eliminate distractions and ensure the leader's sleep quality.]
Zhao Yu opened his eyes.
He glanced at Cao Cao on the couch.
Cao Cao had just turned over in bed, muttering to himself:
"Fengxiao...don't go..."
Zhao Yu didn't move.
He is waiting.
Wait for them to come in.
It's raining heavily outside; it's too much trouble to go out and get soaked after committing murder.
It's warm to kill it indoors.
"call--"
The window paper has been pierced.
A thin tube was inserted.
Sleeping smoke.
He's an expert.
Zhao Yu held his breath.
[Toxin Resistance: Activated.]
Air filtration: On.
The smoke dissipated.
The bolt was pried open with a dagger.
There was no sound.
The door opened.
A cold wind blew in.
It was locked up again.
Six people have already come in.
The other six were responsible for keeping watch outside.
The leader of the assassins.
They saw Cao Cao on the couch.
Overjoyed.
The traitor Cao is here, without armor or a sword.
A golden opportunity!
He glanced at Zhao Yu on the ground again.
The bodyguard who was sleeping while sitting.
She had her back to him.
I didn't take it seriously.
I thought it was just a guard dog.
I killed him while I was at it.
The assassin leader made a hand gesture.
The three men charged toward Cao Cao.
The three men rushed towards Zhao Yu.
Clear division of labor.
Nearly.
Three steps, two steps.
The assassin who rushed towards Zhao Yu raised his knife.
He stabbed Zhao Yu hard in the neck.
Steady, accurate, and ruthless.
It's a sure kill.
Zhao Yu made a move.
He did not draw his sword.
It's too noisy; it will wake up the Prime Minister.
Bah! The Prime Minister has already been drugged by the sleeping potion. To put it bluntly, he'll kill someone with a knife, and then he'll have to wipe the wound clean.
He raised his hand.
Two fingers were already gripping the blade.
The assassin hadn't even reacted yet.
Zhao Yu flicked his wrist,
The dagger is broken.
Then,
Zhao Yu's entire body sprang up.
He grabbed the assassin's throat with his left hand.
Tighten your fingers.
"Click."
A crisp sound.
The larynx was shattered.
He collapsed limply without even letting out a scream.
It's too awful.
The other two assassins were shocked.
He turned around to stab.
Zhao Yu sidestepped their attack.
He reached out with both hands and grabbed their heads.
Bring them together in the middle.
"Bang."
It's like smashing two watermelons.
Dull, deadly.
The two assassins collapsed to the ground.
Three people were dealt with in three seconds.
not bad.
Meanwhile, the three assassins rushing towards Cao Cao had already reached his bedside.
The leader raised his knife.
Facing Cao Cao's heart.
His eyes were filled with a fanatical desire to become famous and powerful.
If he kills Cao Cao, he will become the hero of the entire Jiangdong region.
"die!"
He roared inwardly.
The knife fell.
But it couldn't fall.
A hand had already reached out from behind.
They seized the leader's wrist.
The leader was terrified.
Look back.
I saw a young face.
"Zhao Yu!"
"Be gentle."
Zhao Yu said in a low voice,
"Didn't you know the Prime Minister suffers from neurasthenia?"
"Finally fell asleep."
leader:"???"
Although you are Zhao Yu, you are remarkable.
But, are you out of your mind right now?
We're carrying out an assassination!
You're talking to me about neurasthenia?
The leader struggled desperately.
Not moving.
He felt like his wrist was about to break.
"Get started! Get started now!"
He wanted to shout.
But it can't produce any sound.
Because Zhao Yu's other hand had already gripped his chin.
Unload.
Dislocated jaw.
The other two assassins reacted.
They abandoned their attack on Cao Cao and instead surrounded and besieged Zhao Yu.
(This was Zhou Yu's demand; even if he didn't kill Cao Cao, he had to kill Zhao Yu.)
"Kill him!"
Zhao Yu sighed.
Release the leader's hand.
I kicked him in the knee.
It disconnected immediately.
Then he seized the leader's knife.
A flash of light.
Both of them had cuts on their necks.
Blood had just spurted out.
Zhao Yu grabbed the blanket from the side and precisely covered them.
They prevented blood from splattering onto Cao Cao's bed.
What does it mean to be a professional?
That's what professionalism is all about.
There were six people inside; one was crippled, and five were killed.
Zhao Yu looked at the leader; he was still alive.
The pain was so intense that my whole body was convulsing.
I can't call out.
It's so frustrating.
His eyes were filled with fear.
It was like seeing a ghost.
Zhao Yu raised his index finger.
Put it near your mouth.
"Shhh."
"Don't make a sound."
Then, he chopped the chieftain on the back of the neck with a hand chop.
Leave one alive so the Prime Minister can interrogate him for fun.
There are also those outside.
Zhao Yu opened the door.
He went outside.
Outside, the rain was still falling.
Six lookouts were keeping watch over the surroundings.
The door opened.
They thought they had succeeded.
I was just about to ask:
"Did you kill him?"
But they discovered that the people who came out were not their own.
He was also carrying a blood-dripping dagger in his hand.
"You will die on your own."
Zhao Yu asked.
"Shall I help you?"
The six people exchanged glances.
They are all ruthless characters.
No more nonsense.
They all rushed forward.
"kill!"
There was no clanging sound of weapons clashing.
There was only the slurping sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh.
There was also the sound of bones breaking.
Zhao Yu walked through the drizzle.
Every step I took landed precisely on the spot where the raindrops were falling.
With system assistance,
This is a one-sided stomp on noobs.
A max-level character is stomping noobs in the newbie village.
Ten breaths.
In just ten breaths.
There were six more corpses on the ground.
Rainwater washed away the blood.
It flowed into the sewer.
Zhao Yu took a deep breath.
cool.
He was dragging six corpses.
They threw them into the house one by one.
They were neatly stacked in the corner.
This is tonight's loot.
I need to get the boss's approval to prove that I haven't been slacking off.
After doing all this.
Zhao Yu closed the door.
I sat back down on the carpet.
Wipe the knife dry.
Close your eyes.
Go back to sleep.
……
Its daybreak.
Cao Cao woke up.
I stretched.
With the added effect of the sleeping pills, I slept very soundly.
I didn't have any nightmares, and I didn't even get a headache.
Refreshed.
"Zhao Yu".
Cao Cao shouted.
"water."
"They're here."
Zhao Yu handed him the water glass.
Cao Cao took a sip of water.
It moistened my throat.
"How did you sleep last night?"
"Is no one bothering us?"
Zhao Yu nodded.
"fine."
"A few guests came."
"guest?"
Cao Cao was taken aback.
Zhao Yu pointed to the corner of the wall.
"there!"
Cao Cao turned his head.
one look.
I'll send him a message.
"puff--"
The water I had just drunk sprayed out.
corner.
Neat and tidy.
Like a human pyramid.
Eleven corpses were piled up.
His death was gruesome.
At the very top, kneeling was another man with a dislocated jaw, bound hand and foot, staring at Cao Cao in terror.
"This...this..."
Cao Cao jumped up from his bed.
Bare feet.
Pointing at the corpse.
"What are you doing?"
"assassin?"
Zhao Yu nodded calmly.
"They must be from Eastern Wu."
"That survivor seems to be the leader."
"I'm afraid of waking the Prime Minister."
"I just tidied it up while I was at it."
Cao Cao looked at the corpse.
Then she glanced at Zhao Yu, who had a calm expression.
He was even yawning.
"smoothly?"
Cao Cao swallowed hard.
These assassins are clearly the elite of the elite.
They infiltrated the governor's mansion.
They sneaked into the bedroom.
Xu Chu didn't even notice.
result……
It happened while I was sleeping.
Were they wiped out by Zhao Yu without a sound?
Cao Cao walked over.
Look at those corpses, they're all covered in fatal wounds.
One blow kills.
Clean and neat.
Not much blood was splattered.
Cao Cao felt a chill run down his spine.
If these people are here to kill me...
Even if I had a hundred heads, it wouldn't be enough to chop them off!
Then, a tremendous sense of security welled up inside me.
What is this?
This is an impregnable fortress!
Zhao Yu is there.
This is a place even the King of Hell wouldn't dare enter.
Hahaha.
"Zhao Yu!"
Cao Cao grabbed Zhao Yu and hugged him tightly.
He was so excited that his whole body trembled.
"My vicious dog!"
"My lucky charm!"
With you here, I can rest easy!
Zhao Yu was being hugged quite tightly.
"Prime Minister..."
"It's too tight."
Cao Cao released his grip.
laughing out loud.
"Pass on the order!"
"That good-for-nothing Xu Chu, deduct six months' salary!"
"The entire household is to have an extra meal!"
"Zhao Yu, reward him! Reward him with another thousand gold pieces!"
Cao Cao pointed at the survivor.
His eyes turned sinister.
"Take him away."
"Severe torture."
"I need to know whether it's Zhou Yu or Sun Quan who wants me dead."
Zhao Yu brought up the survivor.
"Understood."
