The success of the secret envoy's plan to assassinate Xiao Feng rests on two points.
First, as long as Xiao Feng does not leave the capital, he usually does not take guards with him. For example, Zhang Wuxin usually stayed in the Xiao Mansion, or went to teach disciples in the world.
Now that Yu Dayou was imprisoned, he returned to the military camp outside the capital, waiting for the order and setting off at any time. Although Zhang Jing has retired and returned to his hometown, he, as the commander-in-chief of preparing for Japanese pirates, still has to go back to fight against Japanese pirates.
Second, the emissary's appearance has not been revealed so far. People who have seen his appearance do not know his identity and will soon forget it.
These two points determined that when Xiao Feng was strolling on the street, the emissary would definitely have the opportunity to get close to Xiao Feng when there were many people. With the secret envoy's martial arts suddenly rising, it would not be a problem to defeat Xiao Feng within three moves.
The rapid progress of Xiao Feng's martial arts is certainly surprising, but it is also true that Yan Zhihu failed to defeat him with three moves. But the two situations are not the same.
During the assassination attempt, Yan Zhihu faced Xiao Feng who was on full alert, not a sneak attack. Moreover, the secret envoy's martial arts is much higher than that of Rouge Tiger. If he can't defeat Xiao Feng with three moves, it would be a joke.
But there was a limitation to this plan, and that was that he had no helpers. The Rouge sisters must not assassinate Xiao Feng in the capital, otherwise, no matter success or failure, as long as they are seen, the Yan family will be doomed.
Sister Rouge is too conspicuous to hide, and everyone in the capital knows that Sister Rouge is the guard of Yan Mansion.
Jiajing could tolerate fights between his junior brothers and old friends, but if one of the parties really ignored martial ethics and directly killed the other party, Jiajing would never let it go.
Therefore, Yan Shifan had to say something first: "Whether you succeed or not, the Yan Mansion cannot be implicated in this matter. If you are exposed, then leave the city directly.
My dead confidant still has a residence in his name, so you can hide it first. Anyway, after a while, they probably won’t remember it. "
Yan Shifan knew this very well. He had a close relationship with the emissary, but if he did not see the emissary for a month, he would not be able to remember what the emissary looked like.
The secret envoy had a slight smile on his extremely ordinary face: "Master Yan, don't worry, as long as Xiao Feng dies, no one else has to worry about it, our great things will be accomplished!"
And in the past two days, Xiao Feng had indeed been wandering around the streets of Beijing, acting unscrupulously. The emissary waited patiently for the opportunity and did not dare to act rashly.
Because he discovered that there was a reason for Xiao Feng's unscrupulousness. There are always more or less Jin Yiwei following him, and I don't know whether it was arranged by Jiajing or Lu Bing.
Although the martial arts of these Jin Yi guards are not very high, they are all extremely alert. As long as someone approaches Xiao Feng, they will quietly attack and stand in the middle.
If he attacks rashly, if he misses a hit, and these Jin Yiwei get involved, it will be very difficult for him to solve them all in a short time. If he is surrounded by experts again, he will be in big trouble.
And the possibility of missing a hit is very high. Even if the secret envoy is quite confident in his martial arts, he is not sure that he can kill Xiao Feng with one move. It must take two or three moves.
After following for a few days, the emissary finally came up with an idea with Yan Shifan. They could not use people from the Yan family, but they could use seemingly unrelated people, such as people from Taibaiju.
These cooperating people don't have to take risks, because what each of them did has nothing to do with Xiao Feng's assassination, but together, they can kill Xiao Feng.
Including Shi Zhenxiang, no one knew why Yan Shifan asked him to do this, because Yan Shifan would not completely trust a businessman. He only asked Shi Zhenxiang to break down and arrange the simplest, non-dangerous tasks.
Shi Zhenxiang returned to Taibaiju, summoned his disciples, and began to assign tasks: "Our task is to scare Xiao Feng!"
Some disciples were puzzled: "What kind of person is Xiao Feng? He is not afraid of thousands of troops. How can we, the cooks who stir-fry and swing large spoons, scare him?"
Shi Zhenxiang followed Yan Shifan's words and explained in an unpredictable way: "People's inner fear does not come from scary things, but from the unknown."
Xiao Feng strolled on the street again. The emissary sneaks in
Xiao Feng followed in the crowd. The chances are good today.
Yan Shifan had already sent people to spy on the news. Yu Dayou was training the soldiers he brought with him in the military camp outside the city, and Zhang Wuxin was protecting his family in Xiao's mansion as usual.
There are people watching these two masters, but Xiao Feng is far away from them and has almost reached Zuixian Tower. Even if Yu Dayou and Zhang Wuxin were gods, they would never be able to rush to the scene to rescue Xiao Feng. Read the book
One of Shi Zhenxiang's disciples quickly approached Xiao Feng according to his assigned task, and then he was grabbed by a scholar-looking man and taken to a nearby alley.
Another person put his hands in his arms and quietly approached Xiao Feng, but was calmly separated by an old man, and was squeezed directly to the edge.
Another person was walking straight towards Xiao Feng with a bunch of candied haws in his hand, as if he was holding a bunch of bombs instead of candied haws.
A shirtless big man came up to him drunkenly, snatched away the candied haws, laughed and hugged the man's shoulders, bit off one as he walked, and then he was surprised to find that it was really a candied haws!
In a restaurant on the street, the window facing the street on the second floor suddenly opened, and a wine bottle flew out from inside. It was not accurate enough and landed one step away from Xiao Feng.
A young man in the crowd quickly walked up to the restaurant, and then shouts came from the room: "I hit this bastard who didn't pay for his meal, and accidentally threw it downstairs...ah, don't, don't, don't do it!" "
Xiao Feng's surroundings were empty, and the Jin Yiwei had been exhausted. The emissary narrowed his eyes and glanced left and right to make sure that no one else would be in the way. His feet accelerated, and when he was still ten steps away from Xiao Feng, he suddenly rushed forward.
Ten steps away, the emissary disappeared in an instant. Xiao Feng also felt the sound of wind behind him. He turned around suddenly, turned his sword out, and struck the emissary with a fierce sword.
The emissary knew that Xiao Feng was no longer an incompetent scholar, and he did not expect to be killed with one move. Moreover, in order to be absolutely sure, he even brought tiger claws in advance.
Of course he can't cover his face. No one can notice him if he blends in with the crowd, but if he covers his face in broad daylight, it's like carving a sign on his forehead: I am a killer!
The emissary was not worried about showing his face; no one would notice him when he was in a crowd. When he killed Xiao Feng, someone might see him, but in such a hurry and in such a short time, it was impossible for anyone to remember his appearance.
At this time, Xiao Feng's Xiuchun Knife struck, and the emissary directly caught it with his left paw, sealed it outward, and used his right hand to grab Xiao Feng's throat directly through the gap!
From the corner of the emissary's eye, he saw several figures suddenly rushing out of the crowd on the roadside. Although their speed was not as fast as his own, they were by no means ordinary people. His heart sank, had Xiao Feng been prepared?
However, the arrow was on the string at this time and had to be fired, and the secret envoy was quite confident that the two masters who could defeat him were being watched and would never appear here.
His current mission is very simple, that is, kill Xiao Feng within three moves and then escape. Now that one move has passed, even if Xiao Feng can dodge this catch, he will definitely not be able to dodge next. Xiao Feng is dead...
Xiao Feng dwarfed and lay on the ground, rolling on the ground and slashing with his knife. This is what Zhang Wuxin told him repeatedly.
"Many people think that if you fall to the ground during a fight, you will lose. This is actually true. It is difficult for a person to stand up when he is lying on the ground. He is basically in a passive situation of being beaten. As time goes by, he will definitely lose. .
But if there is a huge disparity in strength and you want to last longer without being beaten to death, lying on the ground is definitely a good way. Because most of the Kung Fu killing moves are designed for standing people.
It is easy to beat a person lying on the ground, but it is much more difficult to kill a person lying on the ground than to kill a standing person, unless the opponent has long weapons such as swords and spears. "
The emissary does not have a long weapon. His weapon is extremely short, and is not much different from an empty hand. Therefore, when he faced Xiao Feng lying on the ground, he really had a headache.
Xiao Feng rolled on the ground very quickly, and in conjunction with Xiuchundao's defense, the emissary missed his two consecutive grabs in a thrilling manner.
He found that if he wanted to kill Xiao Feng, he had to
Just ride on Xiao Feng. But at this time, those figures had already arrived quickly, and he had no chance.
A pair of shining golden palms fiercely slapped the emissary on the back. The emissary didn't even look back and waved his claws with his right hand hard. The stainless steel tiger claws and gold gloves collided, making a stabbing sound. The emissary stumbled slightly, and Zhan Feiyun took three steps back.
The two waist knives struck at the emissary from the left and right at the same time. The emissary retracted his hands and grabbed them from the left and right at the same time. There was a clang, sparks flew out, and the two of them took a step back at the same time.
The emissary had clearly seen the three people surrounding him, namely Zhan Feiyun, An Qingyue and Zhan Yu, and his heart sank. He should be a sure winner in a singles battle against Feiyun, but with An Qingyue in the mix, it's hard to say, and with Zhan Yu in the mix, he will definitely lose.
The emissary made a prompt decision and rushed in the direction of Xiao Feng. The three of them started almost at the same time, blocking the way between Xiao Feng and the emissary. The emissary paused and immediately reversed his direction, trying to rush into the crowd of spectators on the roadside.
Zhan Feiyun was the fastest. He rushed forward first, his palms flying like a crazy tiger. Although the emissary's kung fu was better than his, it was impossible to determine the winner within ten moves.
Seeing Zhan Yu and An Qingyue outflanking him from both sides again, he knew that they were going to drag him until more people arrived to round him up. The secret envoy gritted his teeth and pounced on Zhan Feiyun, attacking with all his strength. Zhan Feiyun refused to give in and faced off head-on, but refused to give in.
The secret envoy was very surprised. He had never heard how dedicated this war leader was before. Why was he so brave today? This was a lose-lose strategy. With just a few taels of silver a month, what the hell are you going to do?
The two of them moved their claws back and forth in an instant. After four or five moves, they finally hit three palms in a row. Zhan Feiyun's face was as white as paper, blood oozed from the corners of his mouth, and he kept retreating.
The emissary snorted and looked extremely ugly, but he finally broke through Zhan Feiyun's obstruction and blended into the crowd before An Qingyue and Zhan Yu completed the siege.
At this time, the transferred Jinyiwei also realized that they had been deceived. Those seemingly suspicious characters were actually ordinary cooks, and each had their own reasons for being anxious, such as guests waiting for food or anxious to pay tribute...
Realizing they had been tricked, they hurried back and searched the crowd for the assassin. However, not to mention that the emissary might have escaped long ago. Even if they saw the emissary, they would not be able to recognize him at all.
Even the three people who had fought him face to face just now were looking at the crowd blankly, unable to remember what that person looked like.
Xiao Feng stood up from the ground covered in dirt, smiling calmly, as if it was not him who had been embarrassed just now.
"What? You didn't believe it when Yu Dayou said it. Can you possibly remember this person's appearance?"
Zhan Feiyun shook his head: "If he were standing in front of me now, I might still be able to recognize him. But if you ask me what he looks like now, my mind will be very blurry and chaotic."
An Qingyue stamped her feet: "So you put so much effort into letting the three of us mix in the crowd every day and follow you, and this is the only result?"
Zhan Feiyun was full of apologies: "Your Majesty, you have a clever plan. It is very rare to guess that this person may attack you in the capital. It is the incompetence of the subordinate officials and others who failed to capture this thief alive, allowing him to escape in the chaos."
Xiao Feng shook his head: "I didn't plan to catch him on the street. It was a dilemma to ensure that he dared to take action and to catch him on the street.
If Yu Dayou and Zhang Wuxin didn't put them in a visible place to reassure him, he wouldn't dare to take action. But if these two people are not here, even if you can defeat him, you will not be able to capture him.
If you can exchange injuries with him, you have already made a great achievement. "
An Qingyue was puzzled: "Then what are you trying to do? If you hadn't run away so fast just now, he would have almost killed you. Taking such a big risk and knowing full well that you can't catch him, what are you trying to do?"
Xiao Feng smiled and looked at the Zuixian Building in front of him. There was a hole in the window paper of Chen Zhonghou's bedroom on the second floor. A telescope cylinder was sticking out from the window paper, looking furtively downstairs.
"Because I need someone who can remember his face to see his face."
