Chapter 42: The Night of the Murder in the Dark of the Moon
The moonlight is bright, the breeze is blowing, the willows on the bank are gently blowing, the chirping of summer insects is heard in the grass, tearing the quiet night, the river is flowing quietly with silver-white moonlight, the starlight is extinguished in the moonlight, and the mountain villa not far away is like a layer of light silver veil.
From a distance, several groups of figures quietly hidden, and a hundred meters away from the villa, the figures squatted down gently, the ground was like a layer of black cloth, and the black armor squatted in front, frowning and looking at the somewhat hazy wall of the manor.
Time passed little by little, there was some commotion in the team behind him, someone was talking in a low voice, Tu Jia raised half of his body in annoyance, turned his head to look at the place where the sound came from, the sound disappeared suddenly, and the team returned to quiet.
A dark cloud floated over, obscuring the bright moonlight, and the earth became darker, and the armor breathed a sigh of relief, and he looked up at the manor carelessly, the manor was still quiet, there was no sound, only a faint light.
The door in the corner of the courtyard opened, and a figure came out with a lantern, drawing a circle towards the empty night, and with a wave of his hand, a group of people got up and walked cautiously over there, and after watching them enter, he stood up with a sigh of relief.
Although he was full of confidence in front of his master, he knew that the people who dared to walk the Western Regions desert trade road in these years had already become dry bones in the desert with a few under their hands, and they had to be careful and careful to deal with them, if they could be made disappear silently, it would be the best result.
His people had already entered the manor, indicating that the other party was defenseless and the plan was going well.
Tujia silently walked towards the corner gate, and a large group of people followed behind him, these were all private soldiers from the master, all of them were men who licked blood with knives, most of them had participated in many operations in the desert grassland, and they could feel their ease.
When he arrived at the corner gate, Tui Jia noticed that there was no movement inside, and he was a little relieved, not that he was worried that the other party would find out, after all, this was Chang'an, and the movement was too big, which alarmed the government and wanted to provoke the master's blame.
The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, stood inside the corner door, and the man with the lantern went in, and the person carrying the lantern raised the lantern a little, and the man was a little unhappy, and whispered to him to lower the lantern, and the man quickly lowered the lantern.
"Is there any movement?" asked in a low voice, but his eyes quickly scanned the situation in the courtyard, and the people who entered the courtyard first were scattered in all corners, closely monitoring the movement outside.
"It's all dead in sleep, don't worry. The man replied, and he looked back at the man beside him, who was standing in the shadows, unable to see clearly, but with a burly figure.
"That's Fan Er, uncle, the shopkeeper let us stay here, we can go." The lantern-bearer whispered pleading.
Tu Jia frowned slightly, and shook his head very resolutely: "Don't talk nonsense, lead the way, and find the one surnamed Liu first." ”
After making a plan, Tui Jia came to this manor to investigate, but there were a lot of rooms in the backyard, he wanted to catch the surname Liu at the first time, Bi Liang said that he had cultivation, how much cultivation a businessman can have, if Han An is still there, it is another matter.
The man carrying the lantern was a little reluctant, but looking at the fierce expression of the black armor, he didn't dare not lead the way, so the two of them walked forward slowly, and the black armor was a little impatient, and reached out and pushed them, so the two of them had to speed up their pace.
The corner door opened in the courtyard where the debris was piled up, and this courtyard was uninhabited, but the armor was still very careful to have two rooms searched, and the rooms were stacked with goods in a disorderly manner, and there was no one in the room.
"Go, the old rules, don't leave a single living mouth. He turned around and commanded, lowering his voice.
Out of the small courtyard, the team automatically divided into several teams, each rushing towards their respective goals, and Tu Jia asked the two inner should lead the way to the inner courtyard to find Liu Han.
Passing through a moon gate, the armor was alarmed, his figure froze, and he quickly hid behind the pillars, and the people who followed him also stopped, looking for shelter. He looked into the courtyard, and the room opposite was dark, and even the courtyard was dark, without any light.
No problem, everything went smoothly.
Can. , Tu Jia just felt wrong, staring at the dark room, listening intently to the movements around him, his divine sense stretched out, and there seemed to be a faint breath in the room.
Tujia raised his arm and was about to wave it, when there was a scream from the courtyard on the side, and there seemed to be more wind in the night sky. The armor was shocked, crossbow arrows! This is the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the air.
But this time they didn't bring crossbow arrows!
Tuan Jia was shocked, at this time the lantern came from behind, Tuan Jia waved him to step back, this guy didn't cultivate, and he came here with the lantern to do something, adding to the chaos.
"It's all here, and you have to go in and see if you're alive or dead. ”
Under the light, Tuan Jia saw the man's face clearly, a rough face, thick eyebrows, and a hand holding the lantern was stable and powerful.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Liu Tie, the housekeeper of Liufu. A hint of mockery slipped from the corner of Liu Tie's mouth, but his body swayed lightly like a willow twice, and a black shadow flew past him, not even touching the corner of his clothes.
Huang Jia was taken aback, as soon as Liu Tie opened his mouth, he knew that he had won the scheme, and he started at the same time as he asked, but what he never expected was that at such a close distance, the other party could actually get rid of his star dart, why didn't this **** Bi Liang say that there is such a master in this Liufu!
"Palm Lamp!"
With this palm lamp, the lights in the courtyard were bright, the door on the opposite side opened, and a middle-aged man in colorful clothes walked out of the house slowly, leisurely, just like coming out to admire the moon, and like a scholar who was tired of studying hard at night and came out for a walk, so casual.
"I don't know if it's that friend, I came to visit at night, and I asked you to come into the room to talk. ”
The voice was not loud, calm and gentle, as if I had seen a neighbor come to the door.
"Medium, retreat!" the armor shouted, and his body was about to unfold.
"It's all here, and you still want to retreat?" Liu Tie said and jumped up, and came to get the armor with his bare hands. The figure of the black armor retreated violently, the sword light flashed, and the hundred refining sword erupted from his waist, but Liu Tie seemed to not see it, the move was pressing, the sword light suddenly dissipated, and the black armor hurriedly retreated.
"Shoot the arrows!"
The sound of the arrow sounded outside the courtyard, the bowstring sounded, and the screams were repeated.
Tuan Jia panicked in his heart, the other party made a tight move, and with only a pair of fleshy palms, he forced his sharp and unparalleled Hundred Refining Sword to be unable to deploy, and had to retreat again and again, getting farther and farther away from the courtyard gate, completely unable to control the battle situation, and heard the screams at the courtyard gate.
"I'm going to live. Liu Han said for a long time.
"Don't worry, master, you can't run. ”
The armor was cold, and the other party actually had time to chat and talk, and a thought immediately flashed in his mind, go quickly!
The fist wind blows in the face, the sword light flashes, and the beast in the trap struggles desperately.
But the situation has been irreversibly controlled by the people of the mountain villa.
The armor had no room to think at all, the opponent was extremely fierce, every punch was as heavy as a mountain, and every step made him unable to dodge and had to retreat.
Gradually, he realized that his opponent didn't seem to want to kill him, as if he really wanted to capture him alive.
The armor was horizontal, the hundred refining swords were lifted, desperately exchanging life for life, ignoring the fist that rushed to his face, a moon fell across the river, and he pulled out to attack. Liu Tie smiled slightly, his fist swept, and a punch hit the horizontal plane of the Hundred Refining Sword, and the sword light was like a lightning strike, and it was immediately annihilated, and the strength did not stop, attacking along the sword body.
The armor's arm shook violently, and the Hundred Refining Sword almost flew out of his hand, staggering back a few steps.
Liu Tong jumped out from everywhere with the Mai people, in groups of three or four, to surround and kill the black-clothed people, and on the high roof, there were Mai people with bows and crossbows to closely monitor the entire mountain villa.
The villa is not big, and Liu Han and they are a little crowded when they live in, but now it has become an advantage, allowing him to control the entire villa with a few people.
In the firelight, there were screams from time to time, no one on either side shouted, no one roared, and it seemed that they didn't want to alarm those who shouldn't be alarmed and didn't want to be alarmed.
The battle situation in the small courtyard is very clear, Liu Tie has the upper hand, and the armor has changed several ways, intending to escape from Liu Tie's iron fist, but no matter how he changes, he can't escape the control of Liu Tie's iron fist.
These fists were so terrifying that they broke through the sword light and sealed all his attempts.
The battle at the gate of the courtyard has subsided, and the dozens of black-clothed people who came in with the armor have been killed, and the sultry night is filled with blood.
"Hahaha!"
With a long laugh, the hundred-year-old sword flew out of the night sky, blood spurted from the mouth of the armor, Liu Tiefei stepped forward, and the number of points in the Zhongfu Tianshu of the well of the armor was numb almost at the same time, and the strength of the whole body immediately dissipated, Liu Tie grabbed it and dragged it to Liu Han casually.
Liu Han first ignored the black armor that was on the ground, but ordered Liu Tie to let him take people around to take a look.
"Catch a few alive. ”
Tu Jia's expression was not angry, his heart was like ashes, he suddenly understood that he had been betrayed, that damn Bi Liang, he had betrayed himself and his master.
Liu Tie left, Liu Han didn't seem to pay attention to him, and a thin old man came out of the house, the old man's gray beard was messy, and his hair was draped casually behind his head, like a bearded man.
"Lao Huang, what are you doing when you come out, you have no power to restrain the chicken, and you will hang up accidentally. ”
"Hold your breath in the room, come out and breathe. Lao Huang said and looked at Tu Jia, Tu Jia stood with his head held high, looking unconvinced, Lao Huang smiled faintly, and didn't pay attention to him, but turned his head and said, "Dong Weng has thought about it?"
Liu Han smiled faintly and did not answer, Lao Huang sighed and said: "This matter has reminded us that there are loopholes in our system." ”
"Yes, I was negligent. Liu Han nodded, the biggest drawback of the system he designed was that the power of the shopkeeper was too great, he had taken this into account at the beginning, but there was no way at the time, there were not so many people available in his hands, and now Bi Liang's betrayal gave him a chance.
"A shopkeeper, an accountkeeper, and a man, these three people must be sent by the head office in the future, and the shopkeeper only has the right to manage them, not the right to dismiss. Liu Han thought about it and said.
Lao Huang thought for a while and smiled, these three positions are the key points, the shopkeeper controls the overall situation, the account office manages the accounts, and the head of the guy is to lead the guys, which is equivalent to controlling the people below, the position of the account office and the head of the guy is not high, and it cannot affect the business decisions of the shopkeeper, but what the shopkeeper wants to do, it is not possible without the consent of these two people, which naturally forms a containment.
