God-level impostor

Chapter 48 Mantis Catching Cicadas
The visitor didn't stop in front of the courtyard door, nor did he say hello to the guests living in the courtyard, and pushed the courtyard door very rudely.

Then dozens of people filed in, got through the door, and stood neatly on both sides of the door.

With the dim light of the lanterns in their hands, they can vaguely see their clothes, they are all black armored clothes, and they are also black armored guards.

Then footsteps sounded again, and a general wearing a red cloak strode in.

At this time Huang Bing and many brothers heard the movement and jumped into the courtyard with weapons in hand.

"Is it possible to rebel?" The general stood still at the door, glanced coldly at the crowd, and shouted angrily.

Huang Bing saw the style of the man's armor and the red cloak he was wearing, and hurriedly inserted the thick-backed machete into the sheath, knelt down on one knee on the spot, and said in a military salute, "Xiaguan Heishicheng Heijiawei Duwei Huang Bingjian Commander-in-Chief, I don’t know that Your Excellency is coming, please forgive me if I am rude.”

The brothers behind him also knelt down to see Huang Bing.

Huang Bing had never seen this person before, but he recognized that his attire was the same as that of Mu Fan's, which was only worn by the commander of the Black Armored Guard.

He knew that the commander of the Black Armored Guard in Louxi City was named Shen Tong, but he was famous but had no chance to meet him. Since this person appeared in Louxi City, Huang Bing immediately guessed that it should be this person.

Sure enough, the man's subsequent words confirmed Huang Bing's guess.

He didn't let the group of robes kneeling in front of him get up, but snorted coldly, "Shen Tong, the commander of the black armored guards in the west city of this building, has ordered the armored guards of the Black Rock City to follow the army under the order of the city lord. There is a curfew in the whole city tonight. The city is short of manpower, Captain Huang immediately led his troops to follow me and wait for dispatch, if there is a shortage of one person, the military law will do it!"

Huang Bing's duty is to protect Lin Chen. There were several murders in the city last night, so he didn't want to leave at this moment, so he immediately argued, "My lord, let me tell you that this subordinate has an urgent business to do. It's just that I don't want to listen to you." Invoke, but bear the responsibility of life, dare not violate."

Shen Tong's face darkened when he heard this, "Bold Huang Bing, how dare you lie to me. According to the law of the imperial court, if there is an emergency in each city, you can call other non-emergency public army armors, personnel, etc. Do not use any excuse to resist the order, otherwise the military law will be followed. You claim to have urgent military affairs, and this seat asks you, do you have an official order letter?"

Huang Bing immediately understood that he had found out his true identity.

Now that someone asked about the order letter, he had to repeat the reason he said in front of the East City Gate.

Shen Tong was not surprised after hearing it, but his voice was even colder, "Since there is no order letter by my side, I just ask you, are you listening to the tune or not."

Huang Bing glanced silently at the dozens of black armored guards standing at the door, gritted his teeth and lowered his head, and said, "I'm listening, please give me a little time to prepare, and then I'll go."

Daxia's law does have the theory of transfer that Shen Tong said, but for general transfer, only ordinary generals can handle it with a transfer order.

This time Shen Tong actually came here in person and brought so many people with him, so he should have been prepared.

Huang Bing had no doubts that if he refused to agree, the other party would attack immediately, and the killing would be justified.

"Thirty breaths"

Hearing Huang Bing's agreement, Shen Tong was silent for a moment, left this sentence behind, turned and left the courtyard gate expressionlessly.

Dozens of black armored guards in front of the gate also followed.

"Did you hear that? Thirty breaths, get ready immediately." Huang Bing got up angrily, gave orders, and entered Lin Chen's room.

"I've heard it all. This matter is very strange. You must handle it carefully." Before Huang Bing could speak, Lin Chen took the lead.

"There's nothing on Xiaguan's side. It's just that the third son must be careful. In case of emergency, please remember to send a message to Xiaguan." While speaking, Huang Bing took out two summoning orders and handed them to Lin Chen.

"In case of danger, you can also send a message." Lin Chen received the summoning order and ordered.

Huang Bing nodded, turned and left the room.

Thirty breaths, this is a military order, he didn't dare to delay, and ran out of the courtyard with all his brothers.

People go to the courtyard empty.

Lin Chen looked at the dark night sky, pondered for a moment, and walked out of the courtyard quickly.

Not far away, the shopkeeper of the inn was walking back and forth. Seeing Lin Chen coming out, he hurried forward to explain, "Guest officer, don't blame me, I dare not stop those military masters..."

Lin Chen's face sank, "If you are afraid of them, you are not afraid of us, we are also military masters..."

The shopkeeper continued to explain with a smile.

After a moment of shock, Lin Chen got to the point, "Ask you something, if you answer well, I won't pursue it further, otherwise..."

"Your Louxi City's martial arts family, the Li family, do you know?"

"The Li family..." The head shopkeeper let out a sigh of relief, and luckily asked about something he knew, "Although the young one is not a martial artist, he also knows the Li family, which is the number one martial arts family in Louxi City, extremely powerful. Da... By the way, Commander Shen who came just now is the uncle of Mrs. Shen, and the Li family is in martial arts and the official..."

"Okay, I got it, go get busy." Hearing this news, Lin Chen's expression froze, and he thought of the young man surnamed Li whose right arm was broken. Vigorously dismissed the shopkeeper away.

Quickly returning to the room, Lin Chen talked about the relationship between Shen Tong and the Li family, and Xuan Nishang also realized the seriousness of the matter.

No wonder they have a curfew!

Under such circumstances, Lin Chen already predicted that tonight must be an unusual night.

Unexpectedly, the Li family could be regarded as a master in Louxi City, but the matter has come to this point, Lin Chen stopped thinking about other things and started to prepare.

I exchanged some spare items from the system, and made some simple arrangements inside and outside the house.Lin Chen blew out the lights in the house, went out of the room, and fastened the door latch from the outside with a knife.

Then, Xuan Nishang and Xuan Nishang quietly came to the shadow under a row of willow trees by the wall, spread out sleeping bags, and the two of them sat on it quietly waiting for the appearance of their prey.

Time passed little by little.

At midnight, there was finally movement in the always peaceful courtyard.

In the dark night, two figures jumped from the courtyard wall to the courtyard. They were both dressed in nocturnal attire and covered their faces with black scarves.

Each held a steel knife in their hands.

The two of them were very good at light weight, and they made very little noise when they landed. They didn't stop when their feet touched the ground, and they tiptoed like civet cats to the outer wall of Lin Chen's room.

The person in front of him listened carefully to the movement in the room, and pushed his finger lightly on the door panel, but the door didn't move at all.

This person did not use a knife to pry the door bolt, but suddenly slapped the door with his palm, and the door bolt snapped off.

The door was pushed open, and the two shot in.

Then there was a bang from inside.

The moment the two entered the door, there was a crackling sound, and a faint flame suddenly lit up in the shadow under the willow tree by the courtyard wall.

A feathered arrow tied with cotton wool touched the flame lightly, and the arrow that exuded a faint gasoline smell instantly ignited the flame.

The bow was like a full moon, and the feathered arrows with flames shot out, like a shooting star in the dark night hitting the door panel in an instant.

"Pong"

The house that Lin Chen poured gasoline on instantly burst into flames.

All this happened in a very short moment, almost as soon as there was a roar in the room, Lin Chen had already set the house on fire.

Immediately afterwards, the two people who entered the room jumped out of the room, and one of them was engulfed by the flames, completely turning into a fireman.

But the other person was much lighter, only a few places on his body were ignited, but the burning was also very intense.

That clang was the sound of the mechanism arranged by Lin Chen being touched and the oil basin arranged above overturning and falling.

When the two entered the room, one in front of the other, the degree of oiling was different, and the situation before them appeared.

There is no gasoline in this world. Although the peculiar smell wafted all over the courtyard, they didn't notice what it was.

The most important thing is that they never dreamed that Lin Chen had already set up a trap just waiting for someone to enter the urn.

The house was burning blazingly, and the courtyard was lit up instantly.

The person with a relatively light fire saw a water tank not far from the door when he stepped out of the room. Usually, every courtyard of the inn is equipped with such a thing, which is used for fire fighting when running into water.

Amidst the screams of his companion, the man rushed to the side of the water tank, picked up the floating wooden basin and scooped it up fiercely, and poured it down from head to toe.

However, what people didn't expect was that the fire on his body was not extinguished as expected. Instead, there was a bang, and his whole body burst into flames with a horrible scream.
