On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 2043 Assassination Show

Sun Qing didn't answer in a hurry, but turned around and looked at Liu Balang first.

Seeing that Liu Balang was not injured, he turned to Scarface and said, "I am the master's bodyguard. If you want to touch him, you have to get past me first."

Liu Balang looked at Sun Qing's broad back and felt moved and more at ease than ever before.

But now is not the time for him to hide.

He walked out from behind Sun Qing and bowed to Scarface. "Boss, I really didn't do this. Think about it, what good will this do me? I'm a businessman and I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me.

Now we should think about how to find out who burned the ship, instead of killing each other here."

Scarface stared at Liu Balang for a while, then looked at Sun Qing. His chest was still heaving, and it was obvious that he was still angry, but he didn't mention fighting again.

He knew that Liu Balang was telling the truth. The boat was burned, and the most important thing was to find out who did it. If something was really done to Liu Balang here, the trouble would only get bigger.

"Investigate? How?" Scarface gritted his teeth, his gaze returning to the charcoal on the water. "The ship is in such a state, and there's not even a clue. How can we investigate?"

Liu Balang thought for a moment and said, "Boss, we're not completely clueless. That loud noise also happened in Rongzhou City."

Scarface narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean?"

"I was just in the warehouse, and everything I said was true. The warehouse in my mansion was also robbed. I think it was done by a group of people."

Scarface didn't say anything. Liu Balang continued, "If you don't believe me, you can go to my house and take a look."

Scarface's subordinate said, "Boss, you can't go. Who knows what he's thinking!"

Sun Qing glanced over and several people in the water stronghold also glared at him.

Scarface gritted his teeth and said nothing. Liu Balang continued, "We can think of another way to deal with the boat. The Liu family owns a boat company and can build a new one."

"We also need to ask Governor Ding about the things in the warehouse. He is the main person in charge."

Scarface lowered his eyes in thought for a while, glanced at his men, and said coldly, "All of you, go to the water stronghold and investigate now. No matter who it is, as long as they are suspicious, bring them here! Also, take the injured brothers away to bandage them, don't stand here and get in the way!"

The men quickly responded "yes", supported the injured man, and hurried away.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Liu Balang bowed to Scarface and said, "Boss, if you go to Rongzhou City, I will definitely treat you well. If you need anything, I will also help you."

Scarface glanced at him and said unhappily, "Don't think I'll believe you just because you say a few nice words. You'd better be honest. I'll find out the whole story!"

Sun Qing's face darkened. Liu Balang looked at him, and Sun Qing endured it again.

Scarface's eyes sank as he glanced at Sun Qing: "I have something else to do here, so I don't have time to bother with you. You guys go first, I'll go to Rongzhou later!"

Liu Balang was dissatisfied, but after the battle just now, he was also deeply worried.

He also realized that if a fight really broke out in this place, he would be the one who suffered.

No matter how good Sun Qing is at fighting, with so many people around him, he will be exhausted to death if they fight him in a round-robin battle.

It is better to know the current situation now.

Thinking of this, he suppressed his anger, bowed, and left with Sun Qing.

Scarface saw them leave, snorted coldly and led his men away.

Huo Changhe looked at them, feeling somewhat unsatisfied. "Why did they stop? They only hit him a few times. But you're right, he really didn't dare to touch Liu Balang."

Yan Ruyu smiled, stretched out her hand and whistled, and the starling on the rock immediately flapped its wings and flew back, landing on her shoulder.

She patted the starling's head and said, "Scarface is a smart man. He knows what he can and cannot do. If he doesn't even have this sense of propriety, he won't be able to hold on to his position as the head of the Water Village."

"However, some things cannot be settled just because he wants to."

……

When Sun Qing helped Liu Balang step onto the deck, Liu Balang's legs were still shaking.

He grabbed Sun Qing's arm, his voice filled with lingering panic: "Go quickly."

Sun Qing said in a steady voice, "Don't worry, please find a place to sit down and have some hot tea to relax."

Liu Balang nodded and staggered towards the wooden bench beside the cabin.

Just as he was about to sit down, the boat was suddenly shaken by a strong force, and half a cup of water spilled out of the teapot on the table, splashing onto his clothes.

Liu Balang cried out in surprise and reached out to hold the table. Suddenly, he saw a speedboat rushing out from the reed marsh. Three people wrapped in black cloth stood on the bow, with only their eyes showing.

"Who... are you?" Liu Balang's voice tightened and he subconsciously leaned behind Sun Qing.

Sun Qing had already drawn the knife from his waist and pulled Liu Balang behind him, saying, "Get out of the way. I'll handle it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three masked men jumped onto the boat.

Something was thrown into the cabin first, and soon the boat stopped moving, which showed that the sailors inside had been hit.

Then, the masked man on the far left swung his knife and rushed towards Liu Balang. Sun Qing blocked it with his knife, and there was a crisp "clang" sound when the blades collided.

Just hearing this sound, Liu Balang was secretly shocked - this man was much stronger than those people in the water fort.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking the road?" Sun Qing asked, but his eyes were fixed on the masked man leading the group.

The man didn't move, just stood there, his eyes fixed on Liu Balang like nails, and the knife in his hand gleamed coldly.

The masked man on the left did not answer. He changed the momentum of his knife from chopping to stabbing, aiming straight at Sun Qing's heart.

Sun Qing dodged sideways and slashed at the opponent's wrist with his backhand, but the opponent dodged it easily.

At this time, the masked man on the right also attacked, with two knives on the left and right, blocking Sun Qing's retreat.

Sun Qing had to protect Liu Balang behind him and deal with the attack from both of them. He gradually became exhausted and sweat oozed from his forehead.

Liu Balang looked at the two knives swaying in front of him, his legs so weak that he could hardly stand.

Just as Sun Qing was about to speak to appease them, he saw the masked man in the lead move.

The man walked as lightly as a cat, and the knife in his hand was wrapped in cold air as he went straight to Liu Balang's heart.

Sun Qing wanted to stop him, but the masked man on the left grabbed his wrist and he could only watch the knife getting closer and closer to Liu Balang.

Liu Balang's eyes opened wider and wider, and fear flooded his face like a tide. He opened his mouth and wanted to shout "Help", but before the sound reached his throat, the knife had already landed on him.

A dull pain came, Liu Balang's eyes went dark, and his body fell limply.

The masked man in the lead put away his knife, reached out and pulled off the black cloth on his face, revealing a sharp-edged face, which was none other than Yinding.

He looked at Liu Balang lying on the ground, a cold smile appeared on his lips, and he touched Liu Balang's arm with his toes: "So he can't be cut? He's too weak.

If I had known earlier, I would have been gentler, so that he wouldn't have fainted without even a word of begging for mercy."

Sun Qing put away the knife and rubbed the blood stain on the blade with his fingertips.
