A pair of black-clothed masked people with vaguely visible figures were lying on the roof tiles on the other side. They poked their heads out to look at the figure and whispered. One of them took off his headscarf and reached out to fan his sweaty cheeks. He stuck out his tongue and complained with a frown, "Sister, is there something wrong with that guy's head? He's been sitting there in a daze for almost four hours. What if he ruins our plan? Should I go and kick him off the roof? "
The other head that covered his face shook his head and didn't say anything.
"Sister, that wine smells good. There's still half a pot left. I'm really hungry."
After the person who spoke received a glare in return, he felt a bit aggrieved. He lowered his voice and muttered, "That old pervert surnamed Dong in the inner city is really a great spy that the Northern Mang has placed here. Grandpa Song and Old Master Huang are risking their lives to lure him here. There are already quite a few top-notch experts in charge of the assassination. We are actually just putting on a show. Don't tell me that we really have to go into battle? Old Dong is one of the top three masters in the inner city. Even if that old bastard escaped here with a broken arm and a broken leg, he can still kill us with one finger. My good sister, why bother? Even if you want me to die, you should let me walk on the road to hell drunk so that I won't be afraid of Ox-Head and Horse-Face. "
The other woman was really annoyed by these unlucky words. She took off her headscarf and said angrily, "Why are you cursing yourself?! Damn girl, do you have nothing better to do?! "
The woman who had caused the trouble giggled and stretched out a slender finger to point at the back of the figure. The angry woman hurriedly shut her mouth and looked up with some regret. She was unlucky enough to be involved in this disaster. Most likely, it would be difficult for her to see the sun tomorrow. Since she had such leisure time, she could have admired the moon anywhere in this big city. Why did she have to come to the roof of this unscrupulous restaurant to mourn for the passing of the spring and the passing of the autumn? Wasn't it an undeserved disaster? She sighed softly. In this city, if a few nameless pawns died, it would be a pity. No matter how hard-hearted a person was, their heart would have long been broken. Over the years, she had seen too many dead people. Even someone as soft-hearted as her was somewhat numb. She turned around and lay quietly on the cold tiles, closing her eyes to rest. It was no wonder that the old man surnamed Dong in the inner city could gather such a large family in just ten years. He had five to six hundred elite cavalrymen, nicknamed Black Crow, who specialized in assassinations in the city. Most of them were the lackeys of the Dong Family. It turned out that his real identity was a very important spy leader in Beimang Gusai State. How could Grandpa Song, who had always been a good man, not be so angry that he wanted to kill? Although Grandpa Song regarded the Xu family in Beiliang as his enemy, he had always hated the Beimang barbarians. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed in the Western Regions back then. Instead, he would have followed a large number of people into Beimang. Uncle Liu and the others often joked that with Grandpa Song's skills and reputation, if he really went to Xijing, he would be a noble in the Yi Family. Seven years ago, they were still ignorant little girls. They only knew that Grandpa Song had made a deal with the Dong Family's assassins. He had spent all his savings to hire them to go to a place called Qingliang Mountain in Beiliang to kill a young man surnamed Xu from the Liyang Family. Grandpa Song had gone with them at that time, but for some reason, he had been quiet for several years after he came back. It was also at that time that the rumor of Old Song, the drunkard in the outer city, spread. Their younger sister always said that her addiction to alcohol and her tolerance for alcohol were because of Grandpa Song's smell of alcohol, not because she was greedy. This time, if Grandpa Song hadn't insisted on going against the Dong Family, the giant in the inner city, Uncle Liu and the others wouldn't have been willing to break this peaceful life that they had earned by enduring humiliation and working hard for more than ten years. No one doubted that the Dong Family's assassins were the real assassins in the world. There was once a second-rate assassin of the Dong Family who had spent as long as half a year to kill a first-rate master in the outer city who had a personal grudge against him. It was said that the master was almost driven crazy before he died. The Dong Family's various ways of training assassins were enough to make an outsider's hair stand on end. The Dong Family's assassins also had endless killing methods. The reason for tonight's ending was that an ambitious young man had appeared beside the old thief of the Dong Family. She had seen him from afar last year. She couldn't see clearly if he had the horizontal "double pupils" that Uncle Liu had mentioned. But at first glance, the young man was indeed very elegant. Her twin sister often talked about him. Although she gnashed her teeth like a little tigress who couldn't wait to eat his flesh every time, she and her sister had a telepathic connection. How could she not know the terrible signs that shouldn't have arisen? Which woman in the world would have such a special look in her eyes when a man was mentioned?
She suddenly opened her eyes and grasped the long and narrow saber at her waist. She arched her back and was ready to attack. Her sister was only half a beat slower than her. She also grasped the hilt of her sword. When they were young, they looked like they were made from the same mold. When they grew up, it was difficult to distinguish them. Sometimes, they could even fool Uncle Liu and the others. However, their temperaments were completely different. She practiced with the saber, while her sister practiced with the sword. She liked to be quiet, while her sister was active. Therefore, in the path of martial arts, although her sister was more talented, their masters said that she was better at killing enemies. Grandpa Song, who was ranked sixth on the master list in the outer city, and Master Huang, who was ranked twelfth on the master list, both said that they were now close to becoming third-grade martial artists. In the future, they would have a chance to become second-grade master. In this city, there was no such thing as third-grade, second-grade, master, or great master. Ever since the sisters could remember, they had only regarded this city as a novel encouragement from the elders.
She suddenly widened her eyes and almost shed tears.
Then, a tall figure with sleeves as big as bird's wings moved like lightning. He swept across the roofs with an unstoppable momentum. He paused not far away and knocked down an elder that they were extremely familiar with from the roofs with one move. Then, he rushed over and his thunderous laughter rang in their ears. "Drunkard Song, Cripple Huang, you dare to assassinate This Old Man? This Old Man is the ancestor of the three thousand assassins on the ground of the Western Regions! Tonight, This Old Man will make an exception and not do his old job. He will kill his way here openly so that you brats who don't know the immensity of heaven and earth will know what it means to strike a stone with an egg! By the way, where is the little girl who is known as the Twin Jade Annulus of the Western Regions hiding? Hurry up and show yourself so that I can teach you that you are still vigorous despite your age. What enemy? After experiencing This Old Man's meticulous training of women, I will make you call This Old Man 'Husband' on your own within a month! "
As the hoarse voice resounded through the night sky, they could clearly hear the tremors of the street caused by the hooves of the armored cavalry. In their field of vision, there were no less than a hundred bat-like figures following the burly old man.
She clenched the hilt of her saber, her face pale. Didn't Grandpa Song say that tonight's assassination would definitely not alarm the Dong Family's assassins and cavalry? Moreover, the inner and outer cities had always minded their own business. The Dong Family had clearly crossed the line and broken the rules by mobilizing all of their forces. Weren't they afraid that the intertwined forces in the inner and outer cities would unite and attack them tomorrow? The Dong Family, which was a colossus in the outer city, was not even as powerful as the "King of Hell Sima" and the "God of Fortune Li", let alone monopolizing the inner city. Even a new force that had recently risen in the inner city showed signs of replacing the Dong Family, whose assassin business had been declining in recent years.
The burly old man who was rushing over naturally saw an eyesore lying on the roof of the restaurant, pretending to be dead. He couldn't stop laughing. How could there be such an idiot in the world who was waiting to be killed?
He didn't stop pouncing forward. He took a step forward and was about to land on the head of the guy who thought he was smart. He was sure to stomp the head into pieces.
The black-clothed woman who was holding the saber knew that she couldn't escape death. She didn't know why, but at this critical moment where she couldn't even protect herself, she jumped over the roof ridge and ran along the slanted roof. Just as the old thief of the Dong Family was about to step on the stranger's head, she suddenly stopped and grabbed the young drunkard's collar. She suddenly slid backward, causing the tiles on the man's back to clatter. In the night sky, the sound was particularly ear-piercing. Especially when she was exhausted and had to stop near the towering roof ridge. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the guy didn't forget to hold a wine pot in his hand. She couldn't wait to throw this bastard who wanted wine more than his life to that old bastard of the Dong Family.
