Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1507 The Enigmatic Man in the Dark

Yun Shangfei looked at Chu Chen, a conflicted expression flashing across his face.

That very expression was seen by Chu Chen, who had lived for hundreds of years: "Once you're dead, you have nothing left."

Yun Shangfei didn't speak, but just stared intently at Chu Chen.

However, at that moment, about forty or fifty meters away from them, several old farmers were walking towards them as if nothing had happened.

When Chu Chen saw someone arrive, he immediately pointed the pistol at the man's head: "I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't talk, I'll kill you and run away. No one will know it was me. If you talk, I have a way to take you away."

As the farmers drew closer, Yun Shangfei finally sighed.

"I hope you keep your word."

"They were dressed in black, so I couldn't see their faces, but they were able to get me out so easily, even though I'm a death row inmate. Therefore, he must be a high-ranking official in the capital."

"At the very least, they are at the level of prime minister or general."

"Tell the important point!"

Chu Chen was no longer in the mood to listen to his analysis and shouted directly.

"Judging from the sound, it seems to be..."

However, before Yun Shangfei could finish speaking, an arrow suddenly pierced through the air and pierced directly into his head.

The next moment, a dangerous aura came, and Chu Chen immediately rolled to the side to dodge the arrow that was aimed at him.

Looking up, he saw that the archer was the old farmer who had quietly approached.

Seeing that their attack had missed, they immediately turned and ran.

Chu Chen raised his pistol and fired a rapid-fire shot at them until the bullets were all gone.

However, by the time Chu Chen fired the shot, they had already run more than 100 meters away.

Chu Chen emptied his magazine, but only managed to hit one of the men.

Chu Chen rushed forward without hesitation, only to find that the man was already dead.

At this moment, all the clues went cold.

At that moment, the soldiers guarding the city heard the sound of pistols and rushed forward.

"Who dares to kill someone right under the nose of the capital? Arrest them!"

Chu Chen did not resist, but put away his pistol and said, "Are you soldiers guarding the city?"

"who are you?"

"Sir, quickly inform General Tang Yun that Chu Chen was attacked outside the capital!"

Several soldiers frowned upon hearing this. They dared not gamble on the fact that this person could mention Tang Yun's name. The leader whispered a few words to the person next to him, and the soldiers turned and headed towards the capital.

"Your name is Chu Chen?"

"That's right, the thief ran that way, please give chase."

The officer didn't dare to gamble and immediately dispatched a small team to chase after the old farmer in the direction he had fled.

While the others weren't paying attention, Chu Chen bent down and collected all the spent cartridge cases on the ground.

Then he plopped down on the ground, pointed at the man with an arrow still stuck in his head, and said, "This man is named Yun Shangfei, and he is an assassin sent here."

Flying in the clouds? Several soldiers immediately tensed up upon hearing this.

Then, looking at his corpse, he exclaimed, "Ah... it really is Yun Shangfei! Wasn't he in the Heavenly Prison? How did he get out?"

Chu Chen shook his head, indicating that he was also unaware of the matter.

Meanwhile, at Caishikou in the capital, Yun Shangfei was executed, and his body was thrown into the wilderness to be devoured by vultures. You must know that he was a villain, and villains should be punished in this way.

Inside the capital city, a middle-aged man slammed his hand on the table.

"What did you say? Failure?"

"Master, that Chu Chen is actually a master as well, and even more powerful than Yun Shangfei. He rendered Yun Shangfei unable to move with just one move."

“I was afraid that Yun Shangfei would be exposed, so I arranged for someone to kill him. But Chu Chen was very skilled and dodged our attack. He even killed one of our men.”

The middle-aged man's heart skipped a beat. He thought, "You're a complete idiot. So what if you failed? Yun Shangfei doesn't know who he is, but one of your men was killed by him. When they investigate..."

"Are the rest of the brothers safe?"

"Master, they are all safe and have secretly returned home."

"Haha, good, call all the brothers involved in this in to collect their rewards."

The servant was delighted upon hearing this and immediately turned and left.

After he left, the middle-aged man winked at a rather handsome man beside him, and soon after, more than a dozen soldiers were summoned to his house.

Not long after, the man returned, followed by four others: "We greet you, sir!"

"Haha, you've done very well! Today, I, your master, will reward you handsomely!"

Before the group could even express their gratitude, they felt a chill on their necks, and instantly, all six of them stopped breathing.

The middle-aged man looked at the young man beside him: "Go, clean up the mess, and take care of all the people involved, including the constables in the prison cell that day."

"Father, I'll do it right away!"

Chu Chen waited in the field for a short while, and then Tang Yun arrived at Chu Chen's side in a hurry with a group of people.

"Mr. Chu, are you alright?"

"General Tang, I'm fine."

"Oh dear, such a thing happened in the capital. It's my fault, brother. I apologize!"

Chu Chen stood up and looked at Tang Yun politely, saying, "General, please investigate who is behind this."

Immediately afterwards, Chu Chen recounted the entire incident to him.

And, the things Yunshangfei said.

After hearing this, Tang Yun frowned. Who could Chu Chen be, who had just arrived in the capital?

He had been working in Seoul and was completely unfamiliar with the capital. According to his understanding, he had not offended anyone, even in Seoul. So who wanted to kill him?

"Mr. Chu, do you know anyone in Beijing?"

"Hehe, I only know four people: His Majesty, Eunuch Lu, you, and Brother Luo!"

Tang Yun frowned deeply after hearing this, and waved to the people around him: "You guys form a capable team to protect Mr. Chu closely every day."

“Mr. Chu, let me take you home first. This matter is probably not just about you.”

Chu Chen nodded and followed Tang Yun back into the courtyard.

Not long after entering the courtyard, Dong Shilan rushed in with a worried expression: "Chu Chen, are you alright!"

"It's nothing, thank you for your concern!"

"Don't worry, the people behind this, General Tang and Eunuch Lu, have both arranged for their own people to investigate. We'll have a result soon."

"You should stay here for the next few days and not go out."

Chu Chen shook his head: "Your Majesty, I will return to Hancheng tomorrow!"

"Why are you in such a hurry to go back at such a dangerous time?"

"Your Majesty, you must know that our alcohol and iron-refining facilities are all located in Seoul. If the person behind this tries to kill me and goes directly to Seoul, the consequences will be unimaginable."
