Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 159

So how did these six people emerge?We have to go back a little bit on this.

Besides, when Kang Haijiao left the ruined temple last time, Old Zhao already knew that something happened tonight, but the information revealed by Kang Haijiao's gestures and eyes was really limited, and it was difficult for Lao Zhao to judge what happened.

In short, since Kang Haijiao has made it clear that he will come back later, then Lao Zhao will see what he does.

After thinking for a while, Lao Zhao first took the four sword boxes back into the secret passage, and then he was not in a hurry to come out again, but lay down behind the door of the secret passage, peeking at the ruined temple through a small hidden hole in the situation.

As a result, he had just laid down there, and before Kang Haijiao came, he waited for two other people—two masked men.

Of course, since the ruined temple was pitch black at this time, they couldn't see Old Zhao, who was not masked. What was certain was that there were two footsteps.

As soon as Old Zhao heard the footsteps, he thought to himself: "Could it be that these two are the people that Kang Haijiao hinted just now... are following him?"

He was thinking about it, and the two people outside the secret passage had already searched the ruined temple. Although Lao Zhao's ear skills were not very good, he listened intently in this dark and quiet environment. With the sound of footsteps, he could still hear the opponent's trajectory.

"Nothing." After a while, the masked man A with a rather distinctive voice spoke.

"I didn't find anything either." Masked Man B responded quickly.

"Tch...it's still late, I should have come in earlier, so maybe there are people still there." Masked Man A said angrily.

"Hi! If I had followed what I said, we would have rushed in while brother Jiao was talking to him just now, and we might have caught him." Masked man B said.

"Tsk...why are you so stupid?" Masked man A said, "Didn't Brother Jiao tell you everything before the action, and he didn't know where the connector came from, let alone that the other party was secretly There are no other helpers, if we rush in when they are connecting, maybe we will be the ones who get attacked instead."

"Then..." Masked Man B was scolded for being stupid, and seemed a little anxious, "What about Sidao? Wasn't Brother Jiao attracting his attention, and we solved it for him with a single shot from behind? "

"Nonsense, can it be the same?" Masked Man A said, "Si Dao was counted dead by Brother Jiao. We know he must have come alone, so can we miss it?"

"Hmm..." Masked Man B pondered for a while, as if he had suddenly thought of something, and said in surprise, "Eh? Do you think Brother Jiao's play just now revealed something?"

"Go, go, go...how can we still be alive if we reveal our secrets? I'm afraid we will be messed up as soon as we step in." The masked man A continued with certainty, "Let's talk~ I think That 'connector' isn't very smart either, Brother Jiao bluffed him by putting him in a ecstasy formation, and he didn't even remember to open the sword box to check what's inside."

"Then why is he gone now?" Masked Man B asked again.

"I reckon...the 'connector' is probably only one person, so he was a little ignorant after seeing Brother Jiao's hint just now, and decided to take the sword away first, and come back to meet Brother Jiao later. "The masked man A said, "Hmph... Fortunately, brother Jiao has a clever plan and played a trick of pretending that something is wrong, or if we rush to nothing at this moment, he will immediately light incense later, and the other party will definitely be suspicious... ..."

At this point, he paused, as if thinking for a while, and then said again: "Well... let's not be busy, let's withdraw first, since we have basically confirmed that there will only be one connector, and then wait for Brother Jiao to catch him again. Once is enough; this time we two stay away, after all, Brother Jiao just yelled at each other, if the other party came back after putting down the sword, it would be difficult to search around first... We'd better go a little farther to lure the snake out of the hole. "

Masked man B said: "Then... we are far away, how can we do it later?"

"Are you stupid?" Masked Man A scolded again, "With Brother Jiao's martial arts, in a one-on-one situation, you still worry about not being able to capture him alive? Why don't we come here after he sends a signal?"

"Oh... that's right, it makes sense." Masked Man B said, and laughed, "Haha... Then we two brothers would be more relaxed." He paused for half a second, then said, " Hey, you said that if this matter is done today, the superiors will not treat us badly, right?"

"Hey~ look at your bear." Masked Man A continued in an impatient tone, "What are you thinking? If there is a big reward, it is for Brother Jiao. In the final analysis... the scheme is determined by others Yes, [-]% of the matter is done by others, and we are just fighting."

"Yes yes yes... that's natural." The masked man B said, "Brother Jiao, what kind of person is that, even the person surnamed Xiao was deceived by him, and he didn't know there was an undercover agent by his side, hehe... ...In the future, when the 'Governor Lord' becomes the hegemony, the position of the surnamed Xiao may be our brother Jiao, hehe...Maybe the two of us will also get a little bit of glory by then."

"It's alright, alright... Don't dream about your spring and autumn dreams, let's finish the matter before you, and follow me." Before the masked man A finished his sentence, the footsteps of the two gradually faded away. Walking away, he soon left the ruined temple.

At the same moment, the old Zhao who was listening behind the secret door was already in a cold sweat.

Only when the voices of those two people disappeared completely did Old Zhao dare to turn around, and approached the four sword boxes lightly, and opened them one by one.

With the light of the torch in his hand, Old Zhao took a closer look... his scalp was numb.

Lao Zhao may not know other weapons, but he still knows Terashima Kohei's Japanese sword.

Terashima is a very individual person, even the group of connectors knows that Terashima will never give his Japanese sword to others; to take a step back, even if it is not Terashima, it is the same, because for the For these Japanese samurai, the knife can be said to be a part of their life-the sword is inseparable from life and death.

At this moment, Terashima's Japanese sword appeared here, with blood on the sword, so the fate of Terashima is self-evident.

Old Zhao and the rest of them don’t know that Si Dao will duel with Lin Yuancheng tonight, because Kang Haijiao and Si Dao’s actions don’t need to be reported to them in advance. Who died in the hands of Terashima.

Therefore, from Lao Zhao's point of view at this moment, the owners of the first three swords can all be matched. All three of them were the ones who never came back after the duel with Terashima before, and their bodies were found in the wasteland later. The swordsman; and the last one... Judging from the conversation between the two just now, it means that the sword of Terashima who was assassinated tonight did not escape.

Thinking about it this way, the "abnormalities" of Kang Haijiao not long ago were actually acting with him, so it can be matched.

Thinking of this, Old Zhao couldn't help trembling with fear.

Fear is followed by anger.

"Well, you Kang Haijiao, it turns out that you are an undercover agent sent by another gang to Wujian Villa! You hide really deep! You kid will not do it sooner or later, but the task of picking your sixteen swords is going Killed Terashima when it was finished, and planned to capture our "connector" alive... Huh! You are preparing to "close the net" and expose our plan in one fell swoop, right? How can I allow you to spoil the important event of our Xiao Zhuangzhu? !"

While thinking about it, Old Zhao started running in the secret passage.

This secret passage leads to a dry well inside the city wall of Dengzhou City. Most of it is formed naturally, and only about one-tenth of the part (mainly the section of the ruined temple and the part connected to the dry well) is artificially opened. .

Undoubtedly, the residences of the other five connectors were not far from the dry well, so it would be convenient for him to "go to work".

Old Zhao crawled out of the well in the dark, quickly woke up all his colleagues, and when he led the five of them back, he used the "information" he had "eavesdropped" on in the dark. I told it with emotion and embellishment.

When the five of them heard what he said with such certainty and detail, and with the testimony of Terashima's Japanese sword, they naturally wouldn't question anything.

Ever since, there was a scene where the six of them ambushed Kang Haijiao in the ruined temple.

…………

Back in time to this moment...

Accompanied by the shouts of those six people, six swords, six sword styles...had come from around Kang Haijiao.

Although Kang Haijiao's qinggong is high, it is still difficult for him to deal with sudden attacks from six directions in this indoor environment.

In the blink of an eye, I saw Kang Haijiao leaping forward instinctively, using a move of "rabbit rise and falcon fall", crossing his body in mid-air, passing through the gap between the two sword edges, and then put his hand on the ground, trying to turn around start again.

But the opponent wouldn't let him do what he wished, before Kang Haijiao's hand supporting the ground exerted strength, another sword swept out in the oblique stab, cutting off a piece of flesh and blood on his forearm, if the point of the sword penetrated even an inch, It should be rubbed to the bone.

Under the pain, Kang Haijiao was unable to grasp his strength, but he still moved reluctantly, turned around and then turned back, and rushed towards the gate of the temple.

While fleeing, he shouted: "Stop! It's a misunderstanding, it's me, Kang Haijiao! One of my own!"

However, what responded to him was only bursts of sneers, and a sentence that someone didn't know said: "You are the one who killed!"

Kang Haijiao's mind was also messed up, he couldn't think of what happened to him all the time, and the situation in front of him couldn't help him to be distracted from thinking about what was there and what wasn't.

Different from mercenaries like Kang Haijiao who were recruited temporarily to "do dirty work", the six connectors were all direct descendants of Wujian Villa. Accurately speaking, they are "our own people", which is why they can do intelligence work as "connectors", and the really dangerous things are done by Si Dao and Kang Haijiao.

So what are the martial arts of these six people?

Let's put it this way: One-on-one is by no means Kang Haijiao's opponent; two-on-one is also slightly inferior; but if it is three-on-one... then the quality has changed, and Kang Haijiao basically can only run away.

And when it came to a six-on-one situation, plus they had the upper hand in a sneak attack, it was impossible for Kang Haijiao to retreat completely.

It was too late to say it, but it was too late, Kang Haijiao's move to approach the door was undoubtedly predicted long ago, so before he finished his previous move, he was still on his feet, and another sword came down three ways and swept his calf.

The sword caused only flesh wounds, but it still caused Kang Haijiao to lose his balance for a short time.

When Kang Haijiao staggered, the other five swords also rushed forward, and each made a move.

In a blink of an eye, his ribs, flanks, arms, shoulders and neck were all covered with paint, some places were torn apart, and some places had been pierced with holes.

Kang Haijiao is no stranger to this feeling of approaching death, which is very important—a person who has already passed through the gate of hell once, and a person who has never experienced that kind of near-death situation, when faced with a similar situation The responses are very different.

At this critical moment, Kang Haijiao reacted swiftly. First, he did not hesitate to overdraw all the internal energy he could mobilize at this moment. Cooperating with his innate madness, he forced back the bully with a swinging arm and punching movement. The six people closest to him immediately closed the acupoints near the wounds on their torso, poured a breath of dantian qi down quickly, and followed the meridians to all the feet, stepped on their feet and exerted force, and then jumped up...

At that moment, he almost flew upside down from the temple entrance in a "lying down" posture, and gradually fine-tuned his body shape in the air until he landed on both feet.

And how could those six connectors let Kang Haijiao, who was at the end of his strength, run away?Naturally, they all chased out quickly, forcing them to kill with quick swords.

Kang Haijiao gritted his teeth, twisted his body desperately, and ran away, but before he got up, he was hit again, and he was cut three times on his back before he ran away.

"Chasing! He won't be far away!"

This judgment is correct. With Kang Haijiao's current injuries, it is impossible for him to run at his usual fastest speed, nor can he run for too long... Even if he can distance himself from the pursuers within a certain period of time, he still has to stay The bloodstains along the way will eventually attract the other party.

Just like that, in the darkest moment before sunrise.

On this wilderness, one man was running, and six men were chasing.

There are not many choices left for Kang Haijiao, and there is not much time for him to choose. To put it simply...it is nothing more than the four words "survive death".

Eventually, his blood was found disappearing by the bank of a fast-flowing river.

The jointers did not give up easily. After sunrise, they divided into two groups, one went to the other side of the river to investigate, and the other group followed the river downstream.

The two teams of people searched for the whole day with the mentality of seeing people alive and corpses, but they found nothing.

At this point, it doesn't make much sense to search any further. After all, the river eventually leads to the sea...

Considering Kang Haijiao's injuries, the six of them together concluded that [-]% of Kang Haijiao's corpse had flowed into the sea to feed the fish.

Later, when they sent the sword to Xiao Zhun, they also reported it according to this conclusion, so even the owner of Xiao Zhun was tricked into it...

Xiao Zhun didn't know from the beginning to the end that Sun Yixie and Lin Yuancheng were involved in what happened that night, and he thought that Kang Haijiao was really an undercover agent sent to him by a certain "guild leader".

What's even more amazing is that after that, Xiao Zhun reasoned and analyzed all kinds of information on his own, and came to the conclusion that "Kang Haijiao is from the Cao gang".

Think about it... This Kang Haijiao used to stay in the Cao Gang, and then he took a few brothers to leave the Cao Gang to be a thief for a few years, and then he was silent for a while, and when he came out again, he suddenly became a top-notch man Martial arts... No matter how you think about it, it's a bit strange, right?

So can it be considered that his defection from the Cao Gang was the same operation as Chen Yongren's leaving the police academy to become a young and Dangerous boy?

In addition, everyone knows that the Cao Gang is very powerful now, and Di Bujuan is also ambitious, and the surname Di often engages in side activities that make the righteous way despised, such as finding someone to sneak attack on competitors... so he is also very ambitious. It is in line with the personality of the "Master Gang Leader" who will place undercover agents everywhere.

To sum up, it is not outrageous that Xiao Zhun would come up with this answer.

Even Sun Yixie, the instigator of all this, did not expect that a line he casually made up tonight would become the fuse that affects the future fate of the two gangsters.

Of course, that's another story.
