Chapter 41 A sure kill!
At this time, there are no less than fifty iron cavalry surrounding the noble young master. As a bodyguard, this number is fully capable of protecting the noble young master. Even a first-rate master who comes here will probably be furious on the spot.
Not to mention that these people are all masters of external training. They have a lot of strength and can roll several times on the battlefield. If they form a formation while wearing armor, the second-rate masters who have practiced Qi will not be able to break through even if they are in their twenties. Its formation, let alone hurting the noble young master in the center.
But Lu Shi didn't hesitate at this moment. In his opinion, this was the best opportunity. If he missed it, he wouldn't have another chance like this next time.
Quietly, Lu Shi came out of his hiding place, using the shadows of the trees to cover his figure. He held his long sword upside down, his figure was as erratic as a ghost, and he quickly approached the target like a gust of wind, without making any sound during the whole process. The sound did not attract anyone's attention.
They were within a short distance, but they had arrived in just a few minutes, but Lu Shi did not rush out immediately, but hid dozens of meters away from the cavalry.
From this distance, Lu Shi could already clearly see the appearance of the noble young master. The indifferent expression on his face was still the same as when Lu Shi saw him. It seemed that the death of many lives in front of him could not make him any better. His expression changed generally.
Lu Shi was observing, and the whole process went too smoothly for him. Whether the noble prince came here out of the city, or whether the noble prince went up the mountain and sent people into the cave, everything happened as Lu Shi imagined.
But it was so smooth, but Lu Shi felt that something was wrong for no reason.
Logically speaking, with your noble status, you should not risk your life to come here. Lu Shi thought that one hundred thousand taels was indeed very attractive, but for that noble young master, the temptation of one hundred thousand taels was not enough. He deigned to come here.
So, there must be something wrong with this.
Putting himself in his shoes, Lu Shi felt that if he came here, he must be fully prepared. First, safety must be fully guaranteed before he can come here in person. As a person of noble status, it is impossible for the other party to not have this kind of consideration. In this way, the matter will be explained.
Among the fifty or so cavalry in front of us, apart from Lihu, there must be other masters hiding among them. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Lihu alone to keep your noble son safe.
In this way, Lu Shi did not attack rashly, but used the "Thousand-year-old Turtle Breathing Technique" to restrain his aura to the extreme without causing any movement.
Prudence has always been a virtue that Lu Shi upholds. From the beginning of time travel to now, Lu Shi has never done anything beyond his control. This caution is the basis for Lu Shi's survival in this world. He Will not give up.
Gradually, Lu Shi discovered where something was wrong.
The breathing rhythm of the knights close to the noble master is obviously different from that of the other knights, appearing longer and more restrained.
Those who can do this are those whose true energy has reached an extremely high level, such as Li Hu. However, Lu Shi, who has met Li Hu, knows that he is a first-rate master. In this way, Those few people are naturally the same as Li Hu, and they are also top-notch masters.
Taking a closer look, there are eight such figures. Including Lihu, there are close to ten first-class masters among the fifty or so cavalry. Even if Lu Shi faced off against such a number at the same time, You will also feel stressed.
The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall. How could this noble young master dare to be here without any preparation? Lu Shi estimated that when this noble young master came here, he must have been certain that he would show up.
Thinking of this, Lu Shi became more cautious, frowned slightly, and thought about countermeasures.
Suddenly, Lu Shi raised his brows, showed a hint of smile, and slowly backed away.
The noble prince just stood there quietly with an indifferent look on his face, while Lihu beside him glanced around from time to time, his eyes wandering around possible crises, and he put one hand on the handle of the knife, ready to take action at any time.
Seeing him like this, the noble master just said softly: "No need to worry, that person will appear naturally when he is supposed to appear. You just need to do your own thing well."
"Yes, son."
Lihu nodded slightly and responded softly.
Time passed like this, and half a stick of incense passed in the blink of an eye. There was still thick smoke coming out of the cave entrance. Although the flames were extinguished, the smoke that had just poured into it would not disappear in such a short time. And there were still tiny sounds coming from inside. It was obvious that the cave was not stable at this time.
But all this will not arouse the slightest emotion for the noble young master.
rustle!
When the sudden sound came out, Li Huhu's eyes were filled with confusion, and he suddenly turned his head to look at the source of the sound.
"who!"
Without his instructions, a cavalryman immediately bent his bow and shot an arrow towards the source of the sound.
Several arrows flew out and landed at the source of the sound, but there was no subsequent sound.
"Go and take a look alone." Lihu ordered.
"Yes!"
One person took the order and ran towards that direction quickly. He returned after a while, but he was holding a package.
"Open!"
Lihu spoke again, and the man placed the package on the ground and opened it, which contained more than a dozen small-looking medicine bags.
Without Lihu's instructions again, the man opened the medicine package. After confirming that there was no danger, he quickly took the entire package over and handed it over to Lihu for inspection.
Lihu frowned when he smelled the fragrance of the medicine in the medicine bag.
"Zhuang Qi San?"
After the words fell, the few people protecting the noble young master immediately cast their eyes on him.
The noble prince raised his eyebrows slightly and stretched out his hand towards Lihu, who quickly handed the package into his hand.
"It's really Zhuangqi Powder. These dozen packs of Zhuangqi Powder are probably worth ten thousand taels. It's really a big deal."
The noble prince looked towards the source of the sound, raised the corners of his mouth, and showed a knowing smile.
But the next moment, everyone heard rustling sounds coming from several directions at the same time.
call out!
A sharp sound broke through the air, but an arrow shot out from one of the sources of the sound, falling in the direction of the noble master.
when!
Before the arrow even got close, someone beside the noble master raised his hand to block it, without posing the slightest threat to him.
The noble prince smiled clearly and said to Lihu: "Send a few more people over to have a look. Since he dares to give it, I dare to ask for it."
I have to say that this courage is indeed worthy of this person's status. He knew that someone wanted to assassinate him, but he did not have any timidity.
"Yes!"
Lihu waved his hand, and five people immediately came out of the queue and quickly dispersed to look for the source of the sound.
The footsteps of several people made little noise, but for experts, this sound was enough to hide their own movements.
After a while, the five people who had just left the queue came back quickly, each holding one or two packages in their hands. The packages carried by two of them made the sound of silver ingots colliding, which was very eye-catching.
At this time, many people in the cavalry looked over, and the five people placed the packages on the ground one by one and unfolded them. Suddenly, the white silver ingots attracted everyone's attention.
"Put it away first."
Lihu spoke.
The five people hurriedly followed the instructions and returned to the team.
At this moment, Lihu seemed to notice something, and looked at one of them, his eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Bloody smell?"
Lihu's expression suddenly changed, and he drew his knife and slashed at him without thinking.
But at this moment, the cavalryman who had just joined the queue moved towards the noble master at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve. The long sword in his hand bloomed with a cold light, killing one person in an instant. With a turn of his body, he moved the long sword with him. , and then slashed towards your young master’s neck.
At this moment, the noble master's expression finally changed, his eyes widened, as if he had already sensed the approach of death.
