Chapter 1880 Shooting
Chapter 1880 Shooting
Some people wait for an opportunity all their lives.
But it is likely that you won’t be able to wait.
Zhang Guzhi was very lucky and waited for an opportunity.
He loved arithmetic since he was a child, and coincidentally, his family was in the banking business.
After he took over the shop from his father, he was determined to do it well and make it bigger.
And today's opportunity is a great turning point that comes to his doorstep, and he must seize it.
Being able to perform meritorious service in front of the Prince of Zhennan, I can’t say that it will definitely bring huge benefits, but it will definitely not be harmful.
What's more, it is not a good thing for this evil man to deposit money in their bank.
He wants to change bad for good.
So, he did not become timid or shrink back; instead, he wanted to do it himself.
Seeing the "old woman" coming again, Zhang Guzhi remained calm.
He smiled and walked forward: "Old man, you came at the right time. I just prepared the silver. Do you need a silver carriage?"
"Three thousand taels is not a small amount. I'm afraid you will be unlucky to leave."
The old woman glanced around and said coldly, "No need. I'll rent a car myself. You bring the money up and let me count it."
Zhang Guzhi readily agreed: "Okay."
He shouted to the back hall, "Bring up the silver."
At this time, the waiter had already gone out to greet other guests.
The "guests" consisted of three people, one of whom was holding a silver note.
"Let's exchange for silver, five hundred taels!"
Zhang Guzhi said politely, "Please wait here for a moment. This old lady came here first. Let's give her the money first."
The guest looked at the old woman and said, "How much money can an old woman withdraw? Let her wait a moment! We brothers are in a hurry to get the money to play."
Zhang Guzhi said in embarrassment: "Don't worry, it will be quick."
The guest grabbed him by the collar and said, "What are you talking about? I asked you to take the money, didn't you hear me?"
The old woman frowned when she saw this. She just wanted to take the silver away quickly and didn't want to cause any trouble.
Just as I was thinking of letting these few take it first, the people in the back hall had already brought up the boxes.
When the guests saw it, their eyes lit up slightly.
"Is this all silver?"
"Yes, they all belong to this old lady," said Zhang Guzhi.
"An old woman actually took so much money," a customer looked the old woman up and down, "Can you spend it?"
The old woman lowered her eyes and said nothing.
The guest came forward and said, "I'm talking to you, are you deaf?"
Zhang Gu knew: "Everyone, go over there and wait, I'll be there soon..."
The guest pushed him and said, "Get out of here!"
After one push and another kick from someone else, he staggered a few steps and reached the store door.
A hand supported him from behind.
He turned around and saw it was Huo Changhe.
Huo Changhe gave him a look and asked him to leave.
The old woman had a bad feeling and gripped her cane with one hand while putting the other hand back into her sleeve.
Yan Ruyu followed Huo Changhe into the store and chuckled, "Why, you changed your clothes but not your crutches?"
Upon hearing this, the old woman immediately straightened up and raised her head. Her eyes, which had been drooping, suddenly became sharp.
Without saying a word, he drew his sword with one hand and threw a fireball with the other.
With two "bangs", a fireball exploded in the house.
But they had been prepared in advance. Two covered buckets were placed in an inconspicuous corner. As soon as the fire started, two people immediately went over to put it out.
The guests who came in, the people who carried the silver box, and even the people who jumped out when the box was opened were all Huo Changhe's men.
"Just surrender!" Huo Changhe said.
The "old woman" gnashed her teeth and said, "You want me to surrender obediently? Impossible!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and his robe fell off, revealing the clothes underneath.
With arms spread out, it looks like a big bat.
Yan Ruyu's eyebrows jumped: "Be careful!"
Before he finished speaking, this man instantly threw seven or eight fireballs, each at someone.
Two more missiles hit Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu.
Huo Changhe held Yan Ruyu and retreated, but this man made a feint and ran straight to the window instead of the door.
"Wow!"
"call!"
There were two consecutive bangs, and the window was smashed and caught fire, and the whole thing fell down. The "old woman" was as light as a swallow and rushed to the window.
He jumped twice and ran straight to the treetops on the roadside.
As long as he could climb up to the treetops and step onto the roof, he could escape.
Yan Ruyu took out a flying claw from the space, flicked her wrist, and flew straight to his waist!
At the same time, three arrows suddenly shot out from the opposite roof!
Huo Changhe threw out a hidden weapon and "bang" knocked down an arrow.
When the "old woman" saw the arrows, her eyes widened and she twisted her body hard to avoid one of them.
There was a pain and tightness in his waist, and he was caught by Yan Ruyu's flying claws. When he lowered his head, the third arrow arrived.
It was too late for him to hide.
"Chi!" The arrow hit him right in the chest.
Yan Ruyu's heart sank.
Huo Changhe tiptoed and ran straight to the roof.
The “old woman” fell down weakly.
Yan Ruyu came closer and retracted her flying claws.
Silver ingots also came over quickly.
The "old woman" was vomiting blood and her chest was stained with blood.
It's too late to save the situation.
Yan Ruyu was a little annoyed. Just when she was about to catch the person, something went wrong.
Huo Changhe also came back with an unhappy look on his face.
"He ran away. He was very fast and shot me a few arrows in return. He is an expert."
Huo Changhe held an arrow in his hand, and Yinding hurriedly said, "My Lord, do you need me..."
"No need," Huo Changhe shook his head and handed him the arrow, "It's the most common arrow, without any mark."
There is no way to investigate.
Looking at the corpse on the ground again, Huo Changhe gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it."
Zhang Guzhi came over with his servants and said, "Your Majesty, is there anything else I can do for you?"
Huo Changhe calmed down and said, "You have done a good job. The palace will compensate you for the loss of the house."
"I dare not," Zhang Guzhi bowed, "It is my honor to be able to do something for the prince and princess, I dare not take credit for it."
Yan Ruyu took over the conversation and said, "This matter should not be publicized. The silver that this person deposited in Guibao will be left with you. Don't touch it."
The meaning of the person dying and leaving behind the money is self-evident.
Zhang Guzhi's heart was pounding - as expected, following the prince and princess had its benefits, and it came so soon!
However, he didn't dare to be too greedy.
"Thank you for your kindness, Princess. However, the amount of silver is huge, and I dare not take it for myself. I would like to ask the Governor's Office to send someone to check it and use it for the construction of Youcheng."
Yan Ruyu raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Alright."
These are all trivial matters. The important thing is to bring the "old woman's" body back.
Yin Ding and his men stayed behind to deal with the aftermath, while Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe returned home.
He went to the palace and found Beibei, then removed the disguise on his face, revealing his true appearance.
He is an unattractive person.
Only this kind of people can change their appearance at will with fewer restrictions.
On his shoulder, there was a tattoo pattern that was painted with paint like the one Zhao Laosan had, but otherwise there was nothing special.
Yan Ruyu drew the pattern and the person's appearance, marked them, and saved them, hoping they would come in handy someday.
"Who do you think the person who shot him was?"
Huo Changhe recalled the scene at that time: "This person's body movement is peculiar, and it is a very rare move."
