207 Road Encounter and Attack(3/3)
After a while, there was a sound of horse hooves outside the temple, and a group of officers and soldiers stopped outside the temple.
The team of officers and soldiers tied their horses and walked into the temple to shelter from the rain. They saw Chen Sanqiu next to the fire at a glance.
"Hey, isn't this the leader Chen of Wushan Sect?"
The leader of the officers and soldiers recognized Chen Sanqiu and spoke curiously.
Chen Sanqiu looked up, but he didn't know this person, and said in surprise: "Do you know me?"
"We came from Ning Tian Mansion. We happened to meet Chief Chen half a month ago."
The officers and soldiers bowed and looked polite.
Chen Sanqiu understood, looked at the group and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"A few days ago, someone masked the emperor and the assassin disappeared. The government office dispatched soldiers from the city and sent teams out of the city to find the traces of the assassin. We were one of them." The captain of the officers and soldiers responded casually.
"What? The emperor was assassinated?!"
Chen Sanqiu was slightly stunned. He left Ningtian Mansion before the incident and had been operating in the wild for the time being. This was the first time he heard about this.
"Yes, it is said that the government and the public are furious. Those adults have issued a death order and must catch the assassin. Those who have meritorious can be promoted and rewarded... But we don't know the appearance and name of the assassin, like looking for a needle in a haystack. Only we know that the assassin is good at using two swords and can fight in and out of the imperial guards. It's very impressive. If Master Chen has nothing to do in his spare time, why would he be with me?"
The captain of the officers and soldiers spoke out for invitation.
"Good to use double swords?"
Chen Sanqiu was stunned and subconsciously looked at the dim corner on the other side.
The captain of the officers and soldiers was puzzled and looked along his gaze, only to find that there was another person in the temple.
Seeing the appearance of Duan Yunfeng in the middle of the shadow, he couldn't help but be stunned.
