Chapter 185 Jinwu Guards Disguised as Men in Black Infiltrate the Inn!
Shen Shuli and Mu Wanjun chatted for half an hour without realizing it.
The registrar waited for a long time but no one came out, so he went in and called the person out.
Shen Shuli looked apologetically at the registrar. She hadn't expected that she would get so engrossed in chatting with her best friend that she would forget the time.
Thinking she would probably have to make several more trips to the prison, she slipped another hundred-tael silver note to the registrar.
"Hehe, Uncle, I haven't seen the princess in so long that I've been chatting so much that I've lost track of time. Please bear with me. I think I'll have to come again tomorrow, and I'll probably have to trouble you again then."
The registrar's slight displeasure was instantly wiped away by this thin piece of paper.
“No problem, just come find me tomorrow and I’ll bring you here,” the registrar said cheerfully.
Watching Shen Shuli leave, the registrar carefully folded the silver notes in his hand and put them into his pocket, humming a little tune as he walked away with his hands behind his back.
Return to the inn.
Shen Shuli begged her mother, Shen Yuehua, to prepare tomorrow's meals for Mu Wanjun in the kitchen.
Seeing this, several of Shen's aunts, uncles, and sisters-in-law also joined in.
A full day's worth of food for more than 30 people was prepared in just two hours.
Worried that the food would spoil, Shen Shuli took it back to her room and stored it in her spatial storage.
That night.
Even though Su Yunhai took precautions and had his bodyguards take turns on night watch.
However, a group of powerful individuals still managed to infiltrate the inn.
The sum of cash that Chu Jingxuan gave to Shen Shuli had already been surreptitiously transported out of the inn during the day.
However, anyone with a keen eye will be able to find out that this sum of money did not enter any money exchange in the capital, and after disappearing from a certain location, it never reappeared.
It's reasonable to guess that this was a smokescreen orchestrated by the Su family.
Such a large sum of cash would make even the richest emperor envious, let alone others.
Shen Shuli didn't dare to rest all night, remaining vigilant outside.
It is not yet midnight.
Then the sounds of fighting came from outside.
The bodyguards on night duty had already started fighting with the intruders.
The bodyguards alerted their master the moment the enemy invaded.
Apart from the elderly and children, all the able-bodied men in the Shen family joined the battle.
But what shocked Shen Shuli was...
Almost all of these invaders were masters of internal energy.
Shen Shuli had a gut feeling that these people must be the Imperial Guards!
Even though these people were all dressed in the most ordinary night clothes and their faces were covered.
But Shen Shuli recognized one of them.
The captain of the Imperial Guard who tried to arrest her on the street this morning.
His forehead is rather unusual, narrow and flat at the top, making his brow bone appear very prominent.
otherwise.
Shen Shuli found it hard to imagine.
What force would send so many martial arts masters to rob these ordinary, defenseless people who fled from the countryside?
Just send some ordinary soldiers and you can easily handle it!
Only the Imperial Guards harbored resentment towards the Su family and were the ones who coveted this fortune the most!
The two sides had only exchanged a few moves.
The Su family was almost powerless to resist.
Only about ten people with firearms managed to withstand the enemy's powerful attacks.
However, the enemies all possess considerable internal strength.
After the Su family used concealed weapons to ambush several unsuspecting enemies, they...
The other party immediately became alert.
He used his internal strength to protect his vital parts.
The bullets were unable to cause serious harm to the opponent.
Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai also joined the battle.
But this is right at the foot of the capital.
The Imperial Guards and Imperial Household Forces within the city, as well as the garrison troops of the capital, and the yamen runners and soldiers in various government offices.
The total is at least several hundred thousand, if not two hundred thousand.
Shen Shuli absolutely cannot use bombs or other weapons with destructive power beyond the comprehension of this world without restraint here.
Otherwise, the Su and Shen families would be utterly destroyed!
Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai are the only two martial artists among those who cultivate the Fire Cloud Technique to have developed internal energy.
However, the two of them had no chance of winning against more than twenty martial artists with internal energy.
Seeing their own people lying all over the ground, the father and daughter's eyes turned bloodshot with anxiety.
When making arrangements in the evening.
Su Yunhai instructed those who had guns to use only pistols with silencers.
Try to avoid using rifles and submachine guns that make too much noise.
otherwise.
Once the Golden Guards patrolling outside heard the commotion, they rushed over to intervene.
Even if the Su family is the victim, they will definitely be arrested and interrogated because of the weapons issue.
Shen Shuli watched as the men in black closed in step by step.
They had forced their men to huddle in the narrow third-floor corridor.
On the other side, there were also very powerful archers who were constantly looking for an opportunity to shoot them.
Shen Shuli could no longer bear it, but her ears were sharp, and she heard a very orderly procession of footsteps approaching the inn quickly.
"Father, the Imperial Guards should be surrounding us outside," Shen Shuli reminded him.
"Looks like we're going to have to admit defeat this time."
Su Yunhai was already in a killing frenzy, and his marksmanship had recently improved to the point where he could hit the bullseye every time.
However, his opponents were all martial artists with quick reflexes, so his spear could only passively defend and repel martial artists who tried to sneak up on him.
The inability to kill the enemy reduces the opponent's combat strength.
"If the result is death anyway, then we can just use weapons of mass destruction!"
Shen Shuli gritted her teeth, like an angry little beast, she was ready for a do-or-die battle.
"call out!"
"call out!"
"call out!"
Suddenly.
The sound of arrows piercing the air pierced through the window, attacking from behind the man in black.
Seven or eight of the unsuspecting men in black were killed instantly.
next moment.
A dozen or so men in black, each wearing the same silver mask, burst through the window and entered.
They then engaged in combat with the remaining men in black.
Shen Shuli and the others didn't know whose people these people were, but they knew they were temporarily saved.
Everyone collapsed to the ground in fear, watching the two groups fight warily.
Soon.
The masked man in black then killed all the intruders.
"Miss Shen, are you alright?"
One of the masked men in black walked up to Shen Shuli and asked her a question.
Shen Shuli shielded her family behind her, looked at him warily, and asked, "Who are you?"
The person removed the mask.
Shen Shuli immediately recognized the person.
It was during the day, and the person Chu Jingxuan sent to help her deliver things was probably a captain or some kind of Silver Armor Guard.
"It's you. What are you doing here?" Shen Shuli asked.
"Our young master was taken away by the government officials for questioning and was just released at midnight."
"He thought that what happened during the day might cause you trouble, so he sent us to come and help you."
"The young master said that we must escort you the whole way until you reach your destination safely."
It turns out they were Chu Jingxuan's men.
Shen Shuli's tense nerves finally relaxed.
The Su family has suffered this misfortune.
There was a reason related to Chu Jingxuan.
It's only natural that he would send someone to help him resolve his troubles.
"Thank you for your hard work. How should I address you?" Shen Shuli asked.
“My name is Xuan Guang,” Xuan Guang replied.
Shen Shuli didn't stand on ceremony and nodded, saying, "Thank you."
“Miss Shen, please take your people back to your room. There’s still trouble outside; we’ll go deal with it first,” Xuan Guang said coldly.
Shen Shuli knew he was referring to the patrol team, the Jinwu Guards, who had already broken down the door.
"it is good."
Shen Shuli ignored the Silver Armor Guards and immediately ordered everyone to enter the room to check on the casualties.
More than fifty bodyguards just joined today...
Tonight's battle wiped out more than half of them!
