I became an NPC in Wuxia Paradise

Chapter 121 Assassination
At night, the camp of the State of Zhao was about twenty li to the southwest, and the army of the State of Qin was stationed here.

Compared with the Zhao State that relied on steep terrain to build a stone Great Wall that was about a hundred miles long, the Qin Army's camp looked much simpler.

It is to use the inexhaustible trees around to build a wooden wall that stretches for more than ten miles, and there are many lookout posts.

In addition, most of the places in front of the wooden wall are covered by many horse-rejection posts and many potholes of different lengths and depths.

There are only three roads that can accommodate several people in parallel,
At first glance, the defense is very simple, and there is a feeling that it is not difficult to break through.

But all the soldiers of Zhao State knew that it was just a beautiful illusion.

When they launched their first attack a few months ago, in addition to leaving behind many corpses of soldiers, let alone breaking through the Qin army's positions,
They just couldn't even get close to the wooden wall, and they retreated in defeat when they were halfway through the charge.

The subsequent tentative attacks also came back in vain, which made Lian Po, who was the leader at the time, only lament that he was really inferior to Wang Lu in terms of defense.

But no matter how powerful the arrangement was, Wang Lu was still just a general after all.

Rejecting horse posts and potholes are effective for ordinary soldiers and generals, but in the eyes of Jianghu people, they are a bit childish.

Nightingale and Wang Wei were hiding in a not-so-deep pit at the moment, avoiding those Qin soldiers who were patrolling the surrounding night.

Not long after, the two flew over the wooden wall.

Looking at the silent tent in front of her, Nightingale and Wang Wei looked at each other, nodded at each other, and searched the surroundings silently.

Both of them were worried about what kind of tricks Lian Po would play, and they moved extremely slowly, and often took a few steps to observe to make sure there was no ambush or anything strange.

Just stop and go like this, after an unknown period of time, the two finally found a single Qin soldier.

After confirming that it was not a trap, Nightingale took a step forward, tapped the man's acupuncture points from behind, and together with Wang Wei dragged him to a corner where there was no one around.

This soldier was very young, he didn't look more than seventeen or eighteen, and his handsome face was full of panic.

He is now a regret, why would he excuse his stomach discomfort and hide there to be lazy?
This is all right, I was caught by two masked men in black, maybe I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow.

He was tempted to shout, to beckon the others to come.

But with the dumb acupoint pressed, he couldn't make any sound other than opening his mouth. This feeling of silence intensified the terror in his heart.

"Where is your coach Wang Lu's tent? Nod if you know!"

Nightingale's voice was very low, but the murderous intent inside was very strong.

The young soldier had never practiced martial arts before, and this was his first time on the battlefield. Although Qin Jun was good at fighting, he was also frightened by Nightingale.

When he heard the question, he subconsciously nodded in response.

At the moment when the words were about to come out, he suddenly remembered that before he came out to serve as a soldier, his father told him,

In case of falling into the hands of the enemy, you must try your best to make yourself valuable, otherwise the ending can only be to be killed.

Still wanting to go back and see her in his heart, the young soldier held back the fear in his heart, without nodding or shaking his head, he just looked straight at Nightingale.

"what?"

Nightingale was a little surprised, she thought she would tell this person immediately when she asked, but she didn't expect that she had a bit of backbone.

Nightingale admired this kind of person.

It's a pity that this person is a soldier of the Qin State, and the assassination of Wang Lu is a major event that cannot be taken lightly, or if you want to know more, it doesn't matter if you let him go.

"Hey, I wanted to give you a good time."

Nightingale sighed, and stretched out her hand to lurk around the young soldier's neck.

When the young soldier was out of breath and his face turned blue, she let go of her hand and said, "Where is Wang Lu's camp?"

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Nightingale grabbed the other party's neck again, this time longer than before.

Seeing that the man almost rolled his eyes due to lack of oxygen, he let go, but this time Nightingale didn't ask directly, but grabbed the man's neck before the man could calm down.

After repeating this three times, the young soldier's mind was a little dazed, and the persistence in his heart just now disappeared in the face of dying again and again.

"Want to tell me now?"

Nod again and again!

Seeing the result she wanted, Nightingale opened his acupoints and said, "Tell me, where is Wang Lu's camp?"

"Master, he is..."

……

Not long after, they thoroughly asked where Wang Lu was, and after hiding the man's body, the two carefully searched for Wang Lu.

It's just a barracks with hundreds of thousands of people. Even if you know the relatively exact location, it's not easy to find it.

The two hid and walked around, and it took a while before they finally locked onto the tent where Wang Lu was.

This is thanks to the bright lights in Wang Lu's camp, otherwise it may take a long time to find it.

"Why isn't he asleep yet?"

Nightingale frowned.

It is a good thing to find the target, but the night is already deep at this time, and the ugly time is almost over.

Logically speaking, it was the time when people were in a deep sleep, so why Wang Lu was still awake, and there were figures and voices coming from inside.

trap?
Nightingale was the first to come up with this idea, but she immediately denied it.

If it's really a trap, it should be to ambush good people silently in the camp and wait for them to take the bait. It can't be like this now.

"There are no soldiers guarding outside the camp. Is this deliberately dismissed?"

Nightingale has been in contact with Lian Po before, and knows that there are soldiers guarding the camps of generals in the army.

Now there is no one there, and there is no sense of murder in the camp, which means that it is not that someone wants to harm Wang Lu, but
Presumably there was something he didn't want the soldiers to know, and he seemed to be discussing it with someone.

This time she is mainly here to kill Wang Yan, but if she can hear some secrets about the Qin army, it will be of great help to the war here.

Thinking of this, Nightingale said to Wang Wei in a low voice: "Let's go and listen and see, maybe we can gain something!"

After speaking, the two of them lowered their voices as much as possible and hid behind a haystack outside the tent, listening to what was being said inside.

"Failed?!"

A majestic male voice said angrily, "Lian Po has been relegated to the position of partial general, and there are many fewer guards around him. How could he miss it?!"

"Didn't you say that you are a master, killing him is easy?"

"By the way, where are they? Why did you come back alone?"

"Hmph, those pig teammates have all run away!"

A voice that sounded somewhat familiar sounded.

Wang Wei and Nightingale recalled a little bit, and they remembered that this person seemed to be the short man who seemed to be the leader when he assassinated Lian Po earlier.

"Run away?! They are not afraid to run away. Did I kill their family members?!"

"So what if you kill them, anyway, they are not real family members, they are just NPCs."

"What did you say? Those people are not their family members? Impossible, I have investigated everything, they..."

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if it's true or not. Anyway, everyone has run away, so it's useless to talk about it now."

"It's you, you haven't completed what I asked, and you still dare to come back, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

"Haha, those people are greedy for life and afraid of death. I have a clear conscience, why don't I dare to come back?"

"I believe Marshal Wang, you won't punish me, a person who is loyal to the Great Qin Empire, for this failure, right?"

"...Okay, since you have contributed to Daqin for many years, and this time there is a reason for it, I don't blame you for this incident. Take this, and go to the military supply office tomorrow to collect the reward money."

"But I want to tell you, if you fail next time, don't blame me for not remembering the past! If it's okay, go down."

"Yes!"

Soon, a short man with a long sword walked out of the camp.

As soon as he came out, he immediately turned around and faced the tent with a strange face, and his mouth opened and closed silently, as if he was dissatisfied with Wang Lu's attitude and cursed silently.

Seeing the short man walking away and seeing no one around, Nightingale and Wang Wei looked at each other and quietly approached the tent.

A small opening was made in the camp tent, and the people inside were compared with the portrait Lian Po gave them.

After confirming that it was undoubtedly Wang Lu, the two prepared to assassinate him.

"Marshal, Lian Po failed to kill him, do you think you need to send someone more?"

Wang Lu suddenly opened his mouth and said this to the empty tent except him.
