Lord of the City

Chapter 168 Goodbye, Uncle

Seeing Wang Chen's expression, Jiang Mengyao was also very dignified at the moment, her expression was in a trance, she immediately nodded slightly, and said softly:
"Okay! Wang Chen, since that's the case, I'll accompany you to see uncle!"

Afterwards, the two of them drove slowly in Jiang Mengyao's black high-end Bentley car towards Zhao's Martial Arts Hall...

10 minutes later.

The car arrived at Zhao's Martial Arts Hall.

Although it was late, Wang Chen could still see clearly the familiar path from under the moonlight.

He led Jiang Mengyao slowly to the back mountain of Zhao's Martial Arts Hall.

Wang Chen walked and explained to Jiang Mengyao as a tour guide again and again, telling interesting stories about him when he was a child.

After a while, the two of them walked slowly to the gardenia tree in the back mountain.

When Wang Chen saw the gardenia tree, his expression suddenly became gloomy. After a long time, he sighed deeply, and said slowly:
"Jiang Mengyao, do you know the origin of this gardenia tree? It was planted by my uncle and I on my tenth birthday... It has been more than ten years now, but my uncle buried it in this tree under the tree."

Seeing Wang Chen's gloomy expression, Jiang Mengyao didn't speak immediately, instead she kept a rare calm and followed behind Wang Chen.

Came under the gardenia tree.

Wang Chen saw the uncle's tombstone, and there were several large characters clearly written on it:

The tomb of the old hero Uncle Zhao!

When I came to the uncle's tomb, there was an inexplicable light in my eyes...

He said softly:
"Uncle, your adopted son, Wang Chen, came to see you again... But this time, we are separated by yin and yang, and we will never see each other again..."

After a moment of silence, he bent his legs slightly and knelt down in front of the tombstone with a plop.

Wang Chen's voice was very deep, and he said softly in a tone of self-blame:

"Uncle, I'm sorry, I'm late. If I had returned to Haicheng earlier, maybe you wouldn't have been killed by these two bastards, Huang Renyun and Li Zhenxiong!"

Afterwards, Wang Chen sent the flowers he had prepared to the uncle's tombstone.

These flowers are all gardenias.

Choked up in a low voice:
"Uncle, I know that you have always liked this kind of white gardenias. The meaning they symbolize is also extraordinary to you. Therefore, I present all these gardenias. I hope you like them..."

After a pause, Wang Chen was silent for a moment, then sighed deeply, planning to say goodbye to the uncle...

He stretched out his hand, gently stroked the uncle's tombstone, and said with great emotion:
"Uncle, I know that you have worked hard for this Great Xia Kingdom all your life... and I will also carry on your last wish and protect this homeland! Now Haicheng is lurking with spies from the Northland. They will eradicate them completely! And avenge you!"

Finally, Wang Chen knelt in front of the uncle's tombstone, kowtowed three times towards the tombstone.

When Jiang Mengyao heard Wang Chen's words, she couldn't help but asked worriedly:

"Wang Chen, where are you planning to go with Canglang? And is the place where those spies are lurking really dangerous?"

When Wang Chen heard Jiang Mengyao's worried words, he shook his head lightly, and said righteously:

"Mengyao, even if it's a dragon's lake or a tiger's lair, I will go for uncle! What's more, this is related to the national security of our Great Xia Kingdom! Don't take it lightly!"

Just when Jiang Mengyao and Wang Chen were going to walk down the back hill of Zhao's Martial Arts Hall, suddenly, they heard a faint noise coming from their ears!

Although subtle, but Wang Chen's hearing, after long-term training in the border area, he can naturally hear any slight sound!
"Swish swish..."

This rustling sound is exactly the sound produced by people walking on the grass and rubbing the soles of their shoes!

Listen to these rustling sounds.

Wang Chen couldn't help frowning slightly!
Based on his past experience, he judged that the number of these people was more than thirty!
Immediately afterwards, Wang Chen solemnly said to Jiang Mengyao in a very solemn tone:

"Mengyao, did you hear that? We are surrounded by more than [-] people now! You must be careful, they might have hidden weapons! Even hot weapons!"

We are surrounded?

When Jiang Mengyao heard Wang Chen's words, she immediately looked in disbelief. She obviously didn't hear any movement around her, so why was she suddenly surrounded by people?
What's more, there are still more than [-] people!

Jiang Mengyao narrowed her eyes, looked around carefully, and said very puzzled:
"Wang Chen, I don't see anyone around here, not even half a ghost! How could there be thirty people ambushing us?"

However, Wang Chen made a silent gesture to Jiang Mengyao, and whispered:

"Hush...Mengyao, keep your voice down, don't make any noise, I just heard them climbed up the tree..."

As soon as Wang Chen's words fell, the surrounding leaves immediately shook, rattling and shaking.

Those assassins hiding in the trees...

Start to shoot brazenly!
They threw countless throwing knives in the direction of Wang Chen and Jiang Mengyao, trying to nail them into hedgehogs!

However, Wang Chen suddenly shouted:
"Lunar Sun God Needle, Yu!"

After Wang Chen's words fell, a magic needle with a faint green light all over his body suddenly appeared in front of Wang Chen...

And shine!

A burst of dazzling green light lit up, and a faint barrier immediately appeared around Wang Chen and Jiang Mengyao, enveloping the two of them.

And those flying knives thrown by the assassins.

The moment you hit those barriers.

They were immediately bounced off one after another!Without exception!
Seeing that long-range attacks were not working, those assassins unambiguously pulled out the scimitars around their waists, and directly aimed at Wang Chen's direction, stabbing fiercely!

Seeing this scene, Wang Chen snorted coldly, squinted his eyes, and said in a contemptuous tone:
"Hmph... Since the sneak attack is not possible, come and fight me close, right? I just hope you can sign up, otherwise, I don't even know who the wronged soul who died by my knife is!"

Immediately afterwards, a familiar voice appeared from among the black-clothed assassins:

"Hehehe...Little friend Wang Chen, don't come here unharmed! However, you will definitely be buried here today, even if we let you know our identities, it doesn't matter at all!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Wang Chen frowned slightly, and his heart moved slightly:

Wang Chen had heard this familiar voice in the Li family compound during the day.

It is the five guardians of Tongshan Sect in Jiangxi Province!
