C438 He held onto the lifeline (1/2)
The taste of the dishes were average, but Ge Sang, Jing Shan and the others all came out from the ravine, so even if there was a little bit more food, it would still be delicious in their mouths. Seeing that their food was so delicious and also aroused Huang Zhiqiang's appetite, he felt that he had never eaten such a delicious meal before.
When they had eaten their fill, they immediately stood up. He did not walk through the main entrance, but jumped over the wall and entered from the side. After walking for a while, he soon arrived at the fifth tombstone. They lurked around, motionless. Huang Zhiqiang looked around, he wondered, what kind of people were these, to be able to lie in the grass for so long. Could it be that they were not afraid of the bites of the mosquitoes, snakes, and ants?
After enduring it for a while, Huang Zhiqiang finally could not hold it in anymore and brought up his confusion towards a hunter beside him.
The hunter laughed, ”What does this count as? Do you know how powerful Ge Sang is? One winter, in order to kill a wild boar, he lay in the snow cave for a day and a night. Finally, he found an opportunity to jump out of the snow cave and kill the wild boar with a single stab. And Jing Shan... ”
Huang Zhiqiang was stunned, this group of people were hunters? When he turned his head back to look at Liang Hao once again, his eyes were filled with even more reverence and admiration. After waiting for a while, three people finally walked up the mountain. They wore windcoats, had sunglasses on their nose, and held flowers in their hands. They walked straight to the fifth tombstone, placed the flowers in front of it, and stood up straight.
Soon after, another four people appeared. Their clothes were rather casual, but they still walked up to the fifth tombstone without saying anything.
The last person to appear was Huo Yuan. He walked up to the fifth tombstone and bowed to a tall and sturdy middle-aged man. Then, he handed an envelope to the middle-aged man.
That middle-aged man was the one who had sent Dark Arrow to the provincial capital to assassinate Liang Hao's boss, Jiao Hai.
Jiao Hai's face was expressionless. He tore open the envelope and found a stack of photos inside. From the moment Liang Hao was shot, to the moment he fell in a pool of blood, and Ye Zixuan's panic was captured. He looked at it again and again, and then showed the other people the photo, and said in a deep voice, ”Huo Yuan, well done. Even though you guys of the third group lost two people, you completed the mission. When we return to Lingnan City, Second Young Master will definitely reward you. ”
”It's all thanks to Brother Jiao, I didn't do anything.” Huo Yuan took out another envelope from his pocket and handed it over to Jiao Hai with both hands.
Inside was a cheque containing the capital of a Swiss Bank. This was the fee Meng Xianhai paid Huo Yuan to hire an assassin. The reason why Huo Yuan gave it to Jiao Hai was very clear. It was all because of Jiao Hai, he did not dare to claim credit for it.
Jiao Hai looked at the six people beside him and smiled, ”Why aren't you guys thanking Brother Huo?”
This contribution originally belonged to Huo Yuan, but now that he shared it equally with the big guy, it was definitely worth thanking him. Just as they were about to say something, they heard a tinkling sound. They were assassins and felt a sense of danger, so they quickly dodged to the side.
Puff! Puff! Bows and arrows hit their bodies one by one and then fell to the ground.
Jiao Hai quickly hid behind the tombstone and whispered, ”There's an ambush. Be careful everyone.”
”There's an ambush waiting for us. Everyone be careful.”
Just as Jiao Hai finished shouting these words, he discovered that there were only Huo Yuan and two people left by his side. All four of them had been shot dead, falling into pools of blood.
They were assassins, and had always been the only ones who tried to assassinate others. But now, they were assassinated by someone else. Under the cover of the tombstone, they pulled out their pistols from their waists and fired with their weapons. However, they were surrounded by dense forest, and not even a shadow of a person could be seen.
They were surrounded by tombstones and tombstones. Unless they relied on the tombstone to protect them and escape, they would only be able to think of one way to proceed.
Just as an assassin appeared, pfft! The arrow shot over and pierced his head. He didn't even make a sound before falling to the ground. Such precise archery skills were simply godly. Jiao Hai was furious. Who was this man and how could he be so clear about their actions? There could only be two reasons. The first was that their whereabouts had been exposed. The other was that someone on their side had betrayed them and leaked the secret.
Neither type was what Jiao Hai wanted to see.
”Brother Jiao, Huo Yuan, you guys go, I'll cover for you.” The remaining dart killer kept changing positions and started shooting at the outside. Jiao Hai and Huo Yuan shrunk their bodies and retreated quickly. After shooting for a while, the assassin finally ran out of bullets. Immediately after, he saw a youth who was nearly two meters tall, holding a gigantic horn arch in his hand. He had already pulled the bow and the moon, and the Arrows was facing him. This scene scared him so much that his face changed as he quickly ran down the stairs.
”Whiz!” Pfft! The arrow seemed to have eyes. It spun in the air and pierced through the assassin's chest, shooting into a large tree at the side. The assassin was still running forward. One step, two steps … After running about five to six steps, blood spurted out from his mouth and he fell to the ground.
Jiao Hai also killed many people, but it was not common for him to use cold weapons to kill someone. In that instant, out of the eight people present, six had actually been killed, leaving only him and Huo Yuan behind. Huo Yuan said anxiously, ”Big Brother Jiao, hurry up and leave, I'll cover for you.”
