Chapter 42: Li Shouyue's continuous empty shots
Lanling Wang never expected that the attack he had used his secret hiding technique and lurked for nearly half an hour, which he thought was a sure thing, would be resolved by Zhang Cheng in the end.
Now that the assassination has failed and the enemy has been alerted, the gates of the Great Wall have been quickly closed. If one wants to leave the city, one can only wait patiently for the next opportunity.
Fortunately, Lanling Wang had enough confidence in himself. He believed that as long as he did not show his murderous intentions, the Great Wall Guards would never discover him.
Unfortunately, King Lanling underestimated Zhang Cheng.
Zhang Cheng’s eyes could indeed not see Lanling King, but Zhang Cheng’s mental strength was many times greater than that of ordinary people.
Under Zhang Cheng's mental detection, the invisible Lanling King looked like three glowing exclamation marks, very eye-catching.
In addition to the all-pervasive nature of mental power, Zhang Cheng could easily find Lanling King even if he was hiding in the toilet.
"Shouyue, do you see that old tree with a red scarf tied around its trunk?"
"I see. The old tree is about 600 meters away from us."
"The assassin is hiding in the shadow of the old tree's trunk. At a distance of 600 meters, are you sure you can hit him?"
The assassin was trapped, and Zhang Cheng wanted to take this opportunity to see Baili Shouyao's marksmanship.
"I have never tried to snipe a target at a distance of 600 meters, but my ancestral hunting rifle can cause casualties to the enemy within a range of 1,000 meters. I think I can definitely give it a try."
Baili Shouyao excitedly took off the hunting rifle on his back. Under the gaze of everyone, Baili Shouyao raised the gun but hesitated to fire.
After all, Baili Shouyao still lacks confidence.
Zhang Cheng turned his head to look at Baili Shouyao, only to see beads of sweat the size of beans oozing out of Baili Shouyao's forehead.
Obviously, six hundred meters was a bit too far. At this distance, Baili Shouyao was not 100% sure of hitting the target.
"Keep your promise. Remember one thing. Aim quickly and fire decisively. The longer you aim, the less likely you are to hit the target."
"Believe in yourself, you are the best shooter."
"If you miss with one shot, shoot again."
After hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Baili Shouyao took a deep breath and finally pulled the trigger.
"Oh!"
After a gunshot, a bullet flew towards Lanling King at high speed.
When the gunshots rang out, Lanling King was startled.
Just as Lanling Wang was about to react, a bullet hit the tree trunk beside him.
The huge tree trunk was shot by Baili Shouyao with a hole as big as a bowl.
From this we can see that although Baili Shouyao’s shotgun is an antique, it is still very powerful.
"Found me? That's impossible, it's just a coincidence. They must be shooting, and this old tree is their target."
Lanling Wang quickly stood up and moved slowly.
On the city wall, Baili Shouyue pulled the bolt of his gun and asked Zhang Cheng, "Brother Zhang, did I hit the target?"
"No, the bullet hit the tree trunk. The assassin is moving to the left now. Aim at the red pants drying between two old trees six hundred meters away. Fire the second shot when I give the order."
Baili Shouyao nodded and quickly raised his gun and aimed at the man in red shorts.
Su Lie stood aside, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
The red shorts belong to Su Lie. He is thirty-six years old this year and it is his zodiac year that he should wear red.
The red shorts are new.
"shot!"
"Oh!"
Another bullet whizzed out, brushing past the red shorts but missing them.
Baili Shouyao aimed for a long time and missed again.
This time, Lanling Wang finally realized that something was wrong and began to escape at an accelerated speed.
"Brother Zhang, where is the assassin now? I can still fire a third shot, and I will definitely hit the target with the third shot."
"Three times is the limit. The assassin has been frightened and is now trying to escape. Let me fire the third shot."
Zhang Cheng took out the Barrett and aimed his gun.
Everyone turned their eyes to the Barrett. There was no doubt that Zhang Cheng's gun looked much better than Baili Shouyao's.
Zhang Cheng's gun was darker, longer, and looked bigger.
Zhang Cheng just raised the Barrett and decisively pulled the trigger. Then Su Lie and others saw a figure suddenly appear out of nowhere more than 600 meters away, and stumbled to the ground.
"The assassin was wounded, and his right calf is missing!"
Mulan let out a low cry, drew her dagger, and rushed towards Lanling King excitedly.
Hua Mulan is now eager to capture Lanling King alive in order to clear herself of the grievances she has suffered over the years.
Lanling King's right calf was hit by the Barrett's bullet, and the entire calf below the knee disappeared.
He lay on the ground, rolling back and forth in pain, muttering to himself, "How did they find me? I was hiding very well. What kind of mechanical weapons are they holding? How can they hit me from such a distance, and with such great power?"
"my leg……"
Lanling Wang was completely immersed in pain. When he came to his senses, the dagger in Hua Mulan's hand was already placed horizontally on Lanling Wang's shoulder.
Soon, Su Lie and others arrived.
Prince Lanling completely lost the chance to escape.
"What's your name? What's your purpose in coming to the Great Wall? Did Xiao Yan, the commander of the Great Wall, die in your hands four years ago?"
When Lanling Wang heard what Hua Mulan said, he just smiled coldly.
"I refuse to answer your questions, but I hope you can tell me, who among you discovered my whereabouts? And who injured me from such a long distance?"
After Lanling King finished speaking, Zhang Cheng reached out and patted Hua Mulan on the shoulder, then walked past Hua Mulan and came in front of Lanling King.
"It was me who discovered your tracks, and it was me who broke your legs."
"you?"
Lanling Wang looked Zhang Cheng up and down and said, "My secret technique of hiding has never been discovered by anyone. How did you find me?"
"You don't need to know this."
"tell me!"
Lanling Wang roared loudly at Zhang Cheng, and his attitude seemed very arrogant.
"Snapped!"
Zhang Cheng slapped Lanling King in the face without showing any mercy to him.
At the same time, Zhang Cheng pulled off Lanling King's mask and threw it at Su Lie's feet.
Under Lanling King's mask is a woman's face, and a very beautiful face.
It turns out this guy is a man with a female appearance, no wonder he wears an iron mask on his face.
"Am I giving you too much face? Do you know that you are a prisoner now? Why are you howling in front of me?"
After being slapped in the face, Lanling Wang not only did not become obedient, but he burst into laughter.
"If you don't tell me what I want to know, you will never get what you want to know from me."
"Like my name."
