In Chaoyunguan, the three masters have a gust of wind in Li'er, they don't use wine and meat all year round, only a few vegetarian dishes are placed in front of them, and a pot of tea is placed in the middle, pouring themselves to drink, and chattering while drinking

"Meiyao, your sister-in-law is finally married, you should rest assured that you are down, and I am right to start your father and son for two generations. That tomboy, since she was a child, she didn't let people worry, and she was always worried that she wouldn't be able to get married. With her temper, it's not bad if she doesn't beat her mother-in-law half to death, and she will definitely not suffer. The man is also very energetic and promising. Just twenty, it's a poinsettia top, maybe in the future, the old girl can still get a fate, in our industry, it can be regarded as a good destination. When we went up the mountain together, I thought about it, sooner or later it would be a loss of my head, but I didn't expect that I could see the light today, and maybe when I went down to see you in the future, I could also wear an official uniform. When the time comes, I don't want to spit on my body, wearing official clothes and wearing thief skins are actually the same, they are all doing the same business, and everyone is still walking together. ”

He was thinking about it, the door was suddenly pushed open, Xiucai came in from outside, and said with a smile: "Third brother, are you chatting with Meiyao here again?" On this day, you don't break your vows? ”

"The ring cannot be broken. It's the rule. Xiucai, you came just in time, let's have a drink, you drink, I drink tea. ”

"It's so embarrassing to let a scholar drink, you drink tea!" Xiucai sat down with a smile, took a wine jug from the basket, and took the cup to drink.

"This view is not as good as in the village, you have to rely on the winch up and down, which is really bitter. Actually, it's better for you to go down, and I'm better here. I'm a scholar, why can't I stay, you still have a family, you have to take care of it at home. ”

"Nonsense, you are here, who are you looking for in the village for money and food? I and Wan Nian are good, they are both charging into battle and blocking guns. If you want to say that in the village, what you really can't do without is you. You have a pen, dozens of fast guns on the top, you have not operated it all these years, the village does not know what it has become, no matter what others think, in my heart, I regard you as our Zhuge Liang. This errand of suffering and suffering cannot be sent to you. ”

Xiucai smiled and took a sip of wine, "Third brother, what do you think of this man Meiyao?" ”

"I think he's pretty good, in the past two days, I've been talking and laughing with the guys in the village, and I've had no fights. If you have wine, you will drink it, and if you have meat, you will eat it, and you will not treat us as outsiders. Maybe follow him to Zhao'an, and there will really be a way out. ”

"But as soon as Zhao'an is done, this foreigner will have to be released. On the side of the Divine Fist, how should I explain it? ”

A gust of wind shook his head disdainfully, "What divine fist?" A group of charlatans, those things are all means to run the rivers and lakes, let's eat green forest rice, can we still believe that? They didn't have a good eye when they wooed us, hoping to let our brothers be cannon fodder and help them fight foreigners. That's right, we're fighting foreign devils, what is Ken that's for? For the money. Not for the silver spent in vain, who is crazy to play with foreigners. What they say about foreigners breaking the ancestral feng shui is pure nonsense, when the feng shui is not bad, we are already ringing horses, and we don't see how good the days are. Fighting foreigners with them not only has to play with their lives, but there is no money to make it, so fools will go. Regardless of whether Zhao'an is recruited or not, these foreigners have to be released, and exchanging them for money is much more useful than killing. ”

He took a bite and sighed again. "Xiucai, I know that you and the foreigner's heart disease, if Dani hadn't let the foreigner hang herself, she would have given you a child by now. But that was many years ago, and it's useless to always remember this hatred. Besides, the foreign priest didn't know his whereabouts, and he couldn't take revenge if he wanted to. Didn't we say that Andrew, it's not your enemy, it's useless to hate him. It's better to put this matter down, and when you recruit An, have money, and marry a daughter-in-law, it's not too late. ”

"Thank you, third brother, but there are things that you can't say you can put down." Xiucai smiled bitterly and drank another glass of wine. "The fist is fake, the technique is fake, I understand it. It's a pity that you don't understand the third brother, although the technique is fake, but the anger is real. If you vent this breath, no matter how many tricks you have, it will be useless, and at that time, you will be about to lose the country. ”

A gust of wind was confused, and I was about to ask a question, but I heard a loud noise outside, as if there was thunder on the ground, and I don't know what exploded or fired. He hurriedly got up, reached out and grabbed the single knife on the side, pulled his neck and shouted, "What's the matter?" ”

"Third master, the people of the word fist sneak attack!" There was a terrible scream outside, and before he could finish speaking, he stopped abruptly, and then several scattered gunshots were heard.

A gust of wind scolded angrily, "**** mother, catch up with people to do happy things, it's really not authentic, I want their lives." Xiucai, you sit here, don't ......"

He had just said this, but he heard a crisp gunshot ringing in the room, and his body trembled in a gust of wind, and then he fell forward. He struggled desperately to turn around, only to see that in Xiucai's hand, a short gun was still smoking white. The face is as usual, calm and plain, and the eight winds are not moving.

"Third brother, I'm sorry, I know I'm sorry for you, but I can't let go of foreigners and not kill them. As soon as I closed my eyes, I remembered Dani hanging. The big boss wants to defect to the government, I don't object, but if I want to join forces with foreigners, I have to contact Liziquan. Whether they are true or false, as long as they kill foreigners, I will recognize them. When this group of foreign devils is destroyed, I will go down and kowtow to you to make amends! ”

Xiucai came to a gust of wind, gently closed his eyelids, pushed the door out, and shouted: "By the order of the big boss, all these foreigners will be executed, congratulations to the big boss." Brothers, put down your guns, and don't stop the brothers of the Divine Fist. ”

There are more than 50 people in Chaoyunguan, which is twice as many as the minions left behind, and under the sudden attack, they killed and injured a lot, and the minions were defeated and beaten very embarrassed. A gust of wind is dead, Xiucai is the supreme leader, he speaks, and the bandits have nothing to do.

Unexpectedly, on the Chaoyunguan Hall and in several hidden rooms, there were still people who were stubbornly shooting, and the gunmen on duty on the walls were still firing bullets at the boxers.

"The big boss has long said that none of these foreigners will be killed. Whoever says killing foreigners is a traitor to our calves! We are the people who are in charge, not your talents, and you can't order us. ”

The two generations of Sun's brothers and sisters have a very high prestige, and Minions obey Sun Meiyao's orders and refuse to disobey them. Rao is situation is dangerous, and with high-level leaders such as Xiucai coming forward, they can't be convinced.

Xuan Xuanzi held the dust at this time and commanded his subordinates to start attacking. The door of Chaoyunguan has been blown up by explosives, and the centaurs can charge inside, and there are not many bandits left, although there are guns, but they can't stop it. The person who left the word boxing picked up the gun on the ground and shot back, and did not show his usual resistance to foreign goods.

Due to the numerical advantage, the speed of the attack was very fast, and the gate and courtyard wall were quickly captured by the boxers. Outside the front hall where the foreigners were imprisoned, several minions returned fire with guns, but the firepower was already very weak. But at this moment, a group of men and horses suddenly appeared in the main hall, and there were rows of guns outside.

This platoon of guns was far more accurate than the bandits, and several boxers who were in the vanguard fell to the ground on the spot. Ding Jianming was originally the main attacker, but he was almost shot, and hurriedly turned his body down, "Where did this man come from?" ”

Xiucai was also at a loss: "This is impossible!" I know the manpower arranged here, that is, those people under the third brother, when will there be such a team of good gunners? ”

But in the main hall, someone was already shouting: "We are the officials and soldiers of the imperial court, the subordinates of Zhao Guanhou Zhao." Lao Tzu's name is Huo Qiu, and he is the sentry officer of the right army of Wuwei. You thieves, don't hurry up and surrender, or you will be killed. ”

Xiucai's face changed, "Wuwei Right Army, how did these officers and soldiers go up the mountain?" Unless...... Unless the big boss has been prepared and sent someone in advance, only he arranges his subordinates, and he can not go through me. ”

The ten men of Huo Qiu, as well as the four servants of Madame Jenson, each holding two Mini rifles, fired alternately, and the firepower was extremely fierce, stronger than the combined firepower of everyone outside. The ropes of those foreigners have been untied by them, and some foreigners who have served as soldiers or have received military training help them to load their ammunition.

Little Liman asked, "Can you give me a gun?" I need a gun, I want to fight, I want to protect Miss Hannah. ”

Hannah's spirits are still not very good, and she is very haggard, but her face is full of smiles, "Oh, Leman, I don't think you have to make any effort." Didn't you hear? They are Zhao Guanhou's subordinates, my knights, he has come, and no one will hurt me. ”

Andrew drew a cross on his chest, and in a prayer of prayer, Hoover heard a familiar name and came to the vicinity of Howard and his party, introducing himself. "My name is Hoover, and I'm friends with your Lord Zhao, and he saved me. Okay, I'm trying to say, we're our own people, and I'm going to make a suggestion to you, we should break through. ”

"Breakout? How can so many people break through? Huo Qiu was very disdainful of this foreigner who came up with ideas, "There are old and young, men and women, how did they break through." As soon as they leave the house, they will be flying bullets, not knowing what kind of casualties will occur. Who will bear this responsibility. ”

"I understand your concerns, but I want to remind you that the entire hall is a wooden structure, if they use fire ......"

Banxi raised his gun and shot outside, echoing: "What this gentleman said makes a lot of sense, if they use fire, we will become very passive......"

Outside, Xuan Xuanzi called Ding Jianming, "I don't know where these officers and soldiers came from, I didn't expect Sun Meiyao to have this kind of backhand, it seems that she is prepared." If you delay your work here for a long time, I'm afraid that there will be new changes, I took a look, this place is all wooden, if you set a fire, I'm not afraid that you won't burn the foreign devils. ”

This place is an important place for Taoism, and Xuan Xuanzi himself is also a Taoist priest, but he didn't expect him to be the first to propose arson, and even Xiucai was a little dumbfounded. Xuan Xuanzi said: "When is it, and taking into account the identity of the Taoist, when will the foreigners be killed?" Now is not the time to pay attention to vulgar etiquette, what you want is a quick word, move the earthen cannon, burn this main hall, burn the entire Chaoyunguan, and see where they can escape! No matter how capable Sun Meiyao is, this time, she will not want to escape from my grasp. ”

In Dazhai, the explosion sounded, and the wine bowl in Wan Nianhao's hand fell to the ground and was shattered, at first everyone thought he was frightened, but then, dozens of wine bowls fell to the ground. A team of minions armed with guns rushed in from the outside and aimed at the greeting guests.

Several cottage leaders looked at each other, and one asked, "Second master, what do you mean by this?" ”

Wan Nianhao's face was gloomy, and he didn't look happy, "It's not interesting, I invite you to come today, there are two things." One is to congratulate, and the other is to watch the ceremony. Congratulations are over, and then it's time to watch the ceremony. ”

"Watching the ceremony? What kind of ceremony? ”

"The owner of the village handed over! Since the big boss is married, it is not suitable to eat this bowl of rice anymore, and the entire mountain should be handed over to someone else to take charge of. What's more, in the green forest, the word righteousness comes first, and the people are the people, and the word filial piety is the head. The uncle of the big boss is still closed in the yamen, but she worships heaven and earth with the people of the government, and I am the first to disagree. I'm good for 10,000 years, and I don't care about the position of the owner of the village, what I care about is a truth. The big boss did not abide by the way of the green forest, betrayed his promise, first agreed to someone else's proposal, but when it came to the end, he changed his mind, and I didn't accept her. So, today I'm going to take its place and re-erect it. But I'm not going to embarrass her, and I'm not going to embarrass her man. For the sake of Brother Mei Yao, I will let them go down the mountain and leave, fetching their own lives. From now on, she will take her Yangguan Road, I will cross my single-plank bridge, how to fight against Yuxian's officials and soldiers in Mengyin, I will take this idea! I don't know how many, what kind of charter is it? ”

The leader of the village and the guests from outside didn't want to have a good drink, but they didn't know how to deal with themselves for a while. Seeing that Wannian is good and has a fierce light, if anyone says a word at this time, I am afraid that they will drink the bullet immediately. Coupled with the fact that his men and horses had already taken control of the hall, no one dared to object.

Wan Nian Hao patted the table case, "Since everyone agrees that I will take this position, there is nothing to say." Please accept some grievances, go to the side room to rest, we will go to the big boss, let her hand over the seal, and then send her down the mountain. ”

But at this moment, there was a commotion outside the hall, and an old voice came, "Second brother, your heart is too anxious, and you don't see my corpse, so you conclude that I am dead?" I'm a cheap person, God doesn't want to accept it, it's not, and he put me back again. I want to see how many people are on your side today, and how many are on my side. ”

With the sound of speaking, the minions who raised the gun looked back, and then their faces showed panic, only to see a pale old man sixty miles away, supported by several big men, slowly entering the main hall.

"What about my niece, and my niece-in-law? It's not dark this day, so I can't just go to bed right now. Come on, call them out, today they got married, I, who was an uncle, didn't drink a sip of tea, can I get married? Good 10,000 years, you sit down first, and say something slowly. Don't you just want to be a big boss? Easy. As long as you have the ability to sit in this seat, this master is yours. ”

At this time, even if you can't recognize this old man, you can judge his identity, it is the Sun Guiliang who went to the government to discuss the hostage incident not long ago, and was held by Yuxian. (To be continued.) )
