I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

Lin Changshou pursed his lips and smiled.

"The Queen said that if General Cong needs my help, I am always available to lend a helping hand."

Ever since he drank the Daliwan magic water, all aspects of his health have improved and his martial arts skills have improved rapidly.

In addition, he is very strong, and most people are no match for him.

Not to mention ordinary people, even General Cong has the ability to fight.

However, he has relatively little practical experience and may not be as good as General Cong in this aspect.

It just so happens that this time I can follow Cong Chongqiu to deal with those assassins and gain some practical experience.

Lin Changshou lowered his eyes and glanced at his chest, where there was a life-saving pill, so he had nothing to be afraid of.

His ancestors have protected his life at every level. It would be unreasonable if he was still timid.

If you can't die, then do it!

We can't always hide under the wings of our ancestors.

"Great!" Cong Chongqiu raised his mouth excitedly, "With Lord Lin's help, we will definitely be able to capture Shi Qiang in one fell swoop."

He had long seen that Lin Changshou had good martial arts skills and was very strong.

With Lin Changshou following him to deal with that group of assassins, this game is a sure win.

In addition, now that they are no longer afraid of the poison of the Wu Ma family, they will go crazy and kill people.

Several people discussed for a while in the tent.

Before noon, when Magistrate Wang came out of the tent, he was followed by two tall yamen runners.

The military advisor watched the three men leave with envy on his face, it was a pity that he could not witness that wonderful battle.

Afterwards, the military advisor immediately asked everyone in the camp to be on alert.

If you see any stranger entering the camp, take action immediately.

The number of patrol personnel around the entire camp has also doubled, with seamless patrols taking place to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of any loopholes.

........

Crescent City....

"Report to General Shi, Magistrate Wang's carriage has entered the city."

Shi Qiang, who was recuperating on a bed covered with six quilts, opened his half-drooped eyelids instantly, and the hatred in his eyes instantly poured out.

"Did Cong Chongqiu come back with him?"

Damn it, the corrupt official went to deliver the imperial edict in a horse-drawn carriage. No wonder he hasn’t come back for so long.

He thought that Magistrate Wang had been detained by Cong Chongqiu, and was preparing to report Cong Chongqiu again and send his assassins to attack the military camp.

I didn't expect this old guy to come back.

The assassin shook his head, "He didn't follow."

They asked the messenger who delivered the imperial edict, and found out that when Magistrate Wang went, he brought six yamen runners with him.

When Magistrate Wang came back, there was no one more person around him, except the six yamen runners who came with him before.

If Cong Chongqiu came back with them, the soldiers who participated in shooting the old patriarch would definitely come along as well.

"Did you look carefully?" Shi Qiang narrowed his eyes slightly. "Cong Chongqiu is full of tricks. Don't make the mistake."

He had inquired about it. Prefect Wang and Cong Chongqiu had a good relationship. Who knew if the two of them were in collusion.

However, if there were only six yamen runners around Magistrate Wang, Cong Chongqiu should not be there.

When Cong Chongqiu besieged him and the old patriarch last time, he must have deployed a lot of troops outside the tent, otherwise those assassins would have rushed into the tent to rescue the old patriarch.

The assassin glanced at Shi Qiang calmly and said, "Of course, if General Shi doesn't believe it, you can send someone to check it out yourself."

He was not Shi Qiang's subordinate, but was just following the orders of the Wu Ma family to join forces with Shi Qiang to avenge the old general.

"You..." Shi Qiang glared at the assassin angrily. Looking at the assassin's indifferent eyes, he didn't dare to say anything more unpleasant words.

Damn it, since he’s not one of ours, it’s so inconvenient to use him and he always makes things difficult for him.

The Wu Ma family's assassins only obey the Wu Ma family. What can he do?

The assassin remained calm and looked at Shi Qiang quietly.

Shi Qiang cursed a few times in his heart, and then he felt a little relieved.

"Call Magistrate Wang over here."

He had to find out from Prefect Wang how Cong Chongqiu would react when he received the imperial edict and when he would leave the military camp.

However, he did not dare to go to the prefectural government office to find Prefect Wang.

He felt uneasy in someone else's territory, especially since Prefect Wang had some friendship with Cong Chongqiu. Who knew if there was an ambush in the prefect's office.

His wounds haven't healed yet, so if something really happens, it won't be easy for him to run away.

This is the residence of the Wu Ma family. The two hundred assassins are all in this mansion. It is very safe.

Even if Magistrate Wang comes, no matter how many people he brings with him, they will not be able to escape.

The dead soldier's indifferent gaze fell on Shi Qiang, "Okay."

"However, after meeting with Magistrate Wang, we should set off to the military camp immediately."

"To prevent any more trouble at night."

The assassin said this and turned around and left the room.

If they hadn't brought a sickly person like Shi Qiang, they would have rushed to the military camp long ago.

If the news leaks out after all this, wouldn't that give Cong Chongqiu time to be on guard?

Unfortunately, the Wu Ma family asked them to follow Shi Qiang to the military camp and help Shi Qiang deal with all of Cong Chongqiu's personal soldiers in the camp.

Shi Qiang looked coldly at the assassin's receding back and spat secretly.

It's just a dog raised by others, yet you dare to act so arrogant in front of him.

When he took over the military camp and the Shi family rose to prominence, the first people he dealt with were the Wu Ma family's assassins.

The most important people in the Wu Ma family, Wu Ma Chaofu and the old patriarch, are all dead, and the rest are useless.

It is estimated that the Wu Ma family is already in chaos and leaderless, so they are bound to fight for power.

Otherwise, according to the strength of the Wu Ma family, if Cong Chongqiu dared to kill the old patriarch, he would have been crushed to death by the thousands of assassins sent by the Wu Ma family.

How could they send out two hundred assassins after all this trouble?

Shi Qiang raised his hand to cover his aching chest, his eyes dim and unclear...

........

At the gate of Xinyue City prefectural government office...

"Prefect Wang!!"

As soon as Magistrate Wang got off the carriage and had not yet walked towards the yamen, he heard a chilling shout.

Magistrate Wang paused, turned around, and looked at the two strange men walking towards him with a frown.

His face darkened and his official authority became apparent.

If anyone dares to block his way, then his position as prefect would be in vain.

At this time, Lin Changshou, who was dressed as a yamen runner and followed behind Magistrate Wang, raised the knife in his hand to block Magistrate Wang.

"Who are you? How dare you offend the prefect? ​​This is a serious crime!"

Lin Changshou saw the emblem of the Wu Ma family on the two men’s clothes at a glance.

He had mentioned these symbols when General Cong and others talked about the Wu Ma family.

I was afraid that he didn’t recognize it, so I drew it for him to see.

But according to common sense, it is normal for a small yamen runner like him not to recognize the assassins of the Wu Ma family.

Besides, it was quite arrogant for a single assassin to block the prefect's way.

He is now a servant of Magistrate Wang, so naturally everything is under the jurisdiction of Magistrate Wang.
