Chapter 274: Lin Mansion
Chenjiaji is located in Dongxiang County, which is a very ordinary town.
This time he went to Chenjiaji, in addition to Chen Xiaoting's own lieutenants, Zhou Wenzhu sent Gou Mingan and Zhang Cheng again.
For Zhou Wenzhu, as long as Chen Xiaoting does his errand, he will do his best to support him.
Zhang Cheng and Gou Ming'an have always been good friends with Chen Xiaoting, and letting these two assist him is the best match.
They didn't wear official uniforms in this operation, but they took care of everything in order to deal with the most critical situations.
This time I came to check the White Lotus Sect's anti-thieves, these people will be desperate, so they have to fight their spirits.
But now Gou Ming'an and Zhang Cheng are not clear about the situation, in order to make the two of them have some preparations, so Chen Xiaoting has to leak some wind to them first.
In Mapoyi, not far from Chenjiaji, in the highest attic, there were only three small flag officers sitting at the table.
After Chen Xiaoting filled the teacup in front of Zhang Cheng and the others, he spoke: "Two, this time we go to Chenjiaji, what we want to arrest may be the White Lotus Sect thief!" ”
Although they knew that Chen Xiaoting would have something to say when he called him here, no one expected that the words of the White Lotus Sect would appear, which naturally made them nervous.
"Lord Chen, there are White Lotus Sect thieves in the Chen family's assembly?" Zhang Cheng is full of disbelief.
Last year, Guangde, where Baihu is located, focused on attacking the White Lotus Sect, causing them to suffer heavy losses, and its comprehensiveness can be described as rare.
But now there are White Lotus Sect rebels again, which makes Zhang Cheng and Gou Mingan a little frustrated, could it be that all the previous efforts were in vain?
Chen Xiaoting couldn't understand their feelings, because he had always known that the White Lotus Sect's power was still huge in Guangde.
I only heard him continue: "If there is really a White Lotus Sect rebel, it is destined to be a vicious battle to be fought, you must sit down and prepare!" ”
After Zhang Cheng and Gou Ming'an nodded, Chen Xiaoting continued: "In order to prevent leakage, you can only let your subordinates be vigilant, but you can't let them know the real situation!" ”
This requirement is not too much at all, even the two of them have been kept in the dark, you can imagine how strict the secrecy requirements are.
"We get it!" Zhang Cheng replied solemnly.
…………
On the fourth day of the twelfth month of the sixteenth year of Yongzhi, at noon.
The Lin Mansion of the Chen family was a tense scene at this time, and the master of the Lin Mansion, Lin Qingzhi, fell ill.
Lin Qingzhi is the father-in-law of Xie Ping, the master of the three talents, and no one dares to mess with him when he lives in Chenjiaji, but he is constantly majestic on weekdays, but he fell on the sickbed at this time.
It's a pity that his son-in-law Xie Ping is now in prison, and Lin Qingzhi doesn't even have anyone to take care of him by his bedside.
As for his daughter and grandson, Lin Qingzhi has only met twice in the past five years, and he doesn't know his whereabouts at all.
And the stewards and servants in the house were all invited by Xie Ping for him, but now no one cares for him when he is seriously ill.
On the sickbed, Lin Qingzhi struggled and shouted, "Female ...... Daughter! ”
"I ...... It's mine...... Little grandchildren! ”
When Lin Qingzhi was dying inside, the subordinates of the Lin Mansion outside the room were busy one by one at this time.
They have prepared a coffin for Lin Qingzhi, a coffin of a super large model, and they know that it is worth a lot of money at a glance.
The steward of the Lin Mansion at this time was named Zhang Daquan, his eyes were like a pair of eagle eyes, and he was not a good person at first glance.
It is also a miracle that such a person can become the steward of the Lin Mansion, but Xie Ping invited him.
At this time, Zhang Daquan was commanding the manpower, taking out a batch of weapons from the side room, and then placing them in the coffin.
"Steward Zhang, everything is in the coffin!" A man dressed as a domestic servant stepped forward.
After Zhang Daquan glanced at it, he said, "It's still a little bit of something!" ”
The servant couldn't help asking, "What's missing?" ”
Zhang Daquan said: "Since it is a coffin, there should be someone lying inside, otherwise why should we seal the coffin?" ”
Poor individual? Who went in and was crucified?
Although they are White Lotus cultists, it is not that some people are vicious and abnormal, and some people still maintain normal thinking.
At this time, Zhang Daquan pointed to the room, and Lin Qingzhi was moaning inside, but his voice was extremely weak.
"Go and put Master Lin in!" Zhang Daquan said in a deep voice.
What's to be done? Although there was some resistance in their hearts, these low-level sect members did not dare to disobey the order.
After a while, the two sect members carried Lin Qingzhi out, and at this time, Lin Qingzhi was already skinny and skinny.
At this time, there was still snow in the yard, and Lin Qingzhi was covered in a single coat, and his breathing became weaker and weaker.
But at this time, he couldn't shout, Zhang Daquan walked to the side of the coffin and took a look, and then said in a deep voice: "Master, there are some things you shouldn't know, and now you are dead than alive, and you are offended!" ”
After saying this, Zhang Daquan pinched Lin Qingzhi's neck with one hand, and then tightened it hard.
Lin Qingzhi didn't struggle, because he didn't have the strength to struggle at all, so he was strangled to death in the coffin.
This scene made people tremble, and some members of the sect stepped forward and said, "Zhang ...... Steward Zhang, if you let Lord Xie know about this matter, we won't have any good fruit to eat! ”
Zhang Daquan twisted his neck and said: "Just do what I tell you, now Xie Ping is in the prison of Jinyiwei, whether he can come out or not is two words, why are you worried about so many things?" ”
After the sect members were taught by Zhang Daquan, they didn't say anything more, anyway, there was a tall man on top of the sky when the sky fell.
At this time, Zhang Daquan said: "Seal the coffin!" ”
As long as the coffin is sealed, the remaining weapons in the Lin Mansion can be disposed of by means of burial, which is also the meaning from above.
Several helpers lifted the coffin, slowly covered the coffin, and soon put it in place.
Then he listened to Zhang Daquan say: "Nail the coffin to death, and the others will hang out the prepared white flags, and strive to be buried in these two days!" ”
The gang below did not dare to disobey, and immediately went their separate ways, leaving only two people to find long nails and start beating on the coffin.
Looking at the scene of banging and beating, Zhang Daquan's heart blossomed, Xie Ping's accident, the huge wealth of the Lin Mansion, all belonged to him Zhang Daquan alone.
And in addition to money, as long as he Zhang Daquan operates properly, he may also become the new leader of the Sanhui through the support of the church.
When the time comes, it will be the time for him to display his ideals, and he Zhang Daquan will also break out in Guangde.
At this time, the dark piles outside the Lin Mansion were also cleared one by one, and under Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng, nearly ninety people surrounded the Lin Mansion.
For Chen Xiaoting, the weapon was found in the Lin Mansion at the beginning, so he rushed to the Lin Mansion as soon as he arrived at the Chen Family Collection.
"Master Chen, everything is ready, why should we go in and get people?" Zhang Cheng came to Chen Xiaoting's side and asked.
Just now Gou Ming'an came to ask this question, Chen Xiaoting could only explain again: "When the time comes, this official will order to break in from the main gate!" ”
Hearing the sound of banging from inside made Chen Xiaoting hesitate to act, because he didn't know what was going on inside.
The manpower that broke in from the front, Chen Xiaoting was transferred under Zhang Cheng and Gou Ming'an, and he also had nine pairs of elite crossbows.
When the knocking sound inside was over, Chen Xiaoting clenched the handle of the knife, then took out the crossbow machine hanging on his waist and released an arrow into the sky.
Hearing only a "suddenly" scream, the silence of the whole world was broken again.
And after hearing the sound of the arrow, all the captains and officers slowly drew their sabers, just waiting for the big guy to say a word before acting.
