Chapter 1183
When the shopkeeper Hu said this, he fell to the ground with a "plop", and knocked his head three times in a row. When Shopkeeper Song and the others saw Shopkeeper Hu making this big gift, their hearts were bright, and they knew that their lives were in the hands of the two people in front of them. Yes, he also fell to his knees with the shopkeeper Hu and kowtowed indiscriminately. Even the seriously injured shopkeeper Yin lay behind everyone and kowtowed four or five times in a row.
The strange man grinned and said, "What are you kowtowing to me?" Haha, I know, are you afraid that I will kill someone, yes or no?"
Shopkeeper Hu and the others were hit by what he said, but they didn't dare to answer, they knelt on the ground one by one, hanging their heads, and their bodies couldn't help shaking. The strange man sighed and said, "Poor man, willing to be a lamb, with a knife on his neck, will only kowtow and beg for mercy." How can I, the people of the Ming Dynasty, be so cowardly? Where did the ambitions of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong go to open up the territory and break the land?"
Shopkeeper Hu and the others lay on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads. It's just that after a long time, I didn't hear the strange man speak again. Shopkeeper Hu was surprised, and boldly raised his head slightly, peeking at the situation in front of him. Shopkeeper Hu was surprised and delighted, but he didn't dare to get up immediately, so he had to prop his hands on the ground and turn his head to the left and right. But I saw that the surroundings were empty, except for the corpses of the three people in Tsing Yi on the ground, there was no one left.
The shopkeeper got up from the ground tremblingly, wiped his eyes with his right hand, looked around again, and saw that the two people were nowhere to be found, and his heart was overjoyed, and he said in a trembling voice: "He, they are gone!
Shopkeeper Song and the others listened to Shopkeeper Hu's words, and they also got up from the ground one after another. Shopkeeper Ji was surprised and delighted in his heart, and couldn't help but shout happily: "It's okay now, our lives have finally been saved......"
Before he could finish speaking, the shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand at him and whispered, "Silence! How do you know that they have gone away?!"
Shopkeeper Song was heartbroken, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, his head turned left and right, and he glanced around in horror. Shopkeeper Hu said to everyone: "We can't stay here for a long time, let's hurry back to the ship." With Lord Xiao and Zhang Yuanwai's guards, even if someone wants to harm us, they can't do it. ”
When he said this, he pointed to the three corpses on the ground and said, "What's more, there are still people killed here, if the government sends someone here, we will have to be arrested and tortured by the yamen!"
Everyone woke up like a dream, and they didn't wait for the shopkeeper to speak, so they ran to the way they came. Shopkeeper Hu was annoyed in his heart, and secretly thought that Lao Tzu kindly reminded him, you guys ran away regardless of it, it was too unrighteous. It's just that at this critical juncture, he didn't bother to argue with the shopkeepers, and then followed.
Everyone was just trotting at the beginning, but after running for a while, they heard the shopkeeper Luo panting and said, "Guys, why do I always feel that there are people behind us......"
As soon as his voice fell, Shopkeeper Ji said in a trembling voice on the side: "I, I just heard that the situation behind me was wrong. I just thought that Lao Bai was following me, so I didn't care. But later I found out that Lao Bai was obviously running ahead of me, which, this is a little weird. ”
As soon as the two of them said this, Shopkeeper Hu and the others were all in their hearts, and they all turned their heads to look behind them. Just when everyone's heads just turned, they seemed to see a figure flashing behind them, but everyone looked fixedly, and there was just an empty street behind them, how could there be any figure following?
Everyone stopped in fright, and looked at each other one by one, and no one could speak. Just as there was silence, I suddenly heard someone laughing softly. At first, the laughter seemed to come from the left side of the street, and everyone was startled and turned their heads to the left. It's just that there is no figure on the left at all, only a big tree poking its head out of the courtyard wall of a house. Shopkeeper Hu and the others were frightened, and when they didn't know what to do, they suddenly heard the man laugh again. This time, it came from the direction where everyone had just escaped. The white shopkeeper screamed, and he didn't care about everyone, so he turned around and fled. The crowd had become frightened birds, and when they saw the white shopkeeper fleeing first, although they did not see the enemy, they couldn't help but follow.
When Shopkeeper Hu said this, he turned his head to look behind him in shock, and saw that no one was chasing him, so he said to Xiao Dong, Zhang Shi and Li Qiufeng: "Lord Xiao, Zhang Yuanwai, the lives of the six of us were almost lost here tonight." This place is very dangerous, let's rush back to the ship as soon as possible, and after Lao Qin finds someone to repair the ship, we will go to sea immediately, and we must not stay here. ”
Xiao Dong was shocked in his heart, secretly thinking that in this contemptible place, how could such a powerful martial arts master suddenly appear? He killed two people in Tsing Yi, originally thinking of annexing the family heirloom of the shopkeeper Yin. But listening to Shopkeeper Hu's account of what happened tonight, the three Tsing Yi people who appeared later must be accomplices to the two people who were killed by themselves. Although these five people have all died, once there are still accomplices lurking in the left vicinity, they will rush up at that time, and they will be left alone, just afraid that they will not escape the murder.
Thinking of this, Xiao Dong only felt that there seemed to be a lot of accomplices of the Tsing Yi people hidden around, and he was a little frightened in his heart. Hearing that the shopkeeper Hu said that he wanted to return to the dock as soon as possible, he nodded and said, "Lao Hu is right. We're going to Fuso on this trip, so we can't make any extraneous branches here, so let's get back to the ship as soon as possible. ”
After Xiao Dong finished speaking, he turned around and headed south. Shopkeeper Hu and the others followed closely behind him, fearing that they would be left alone and poisoned by the enemy. Zhang Shi turned sideways and let everyone go, turned his head to Li Qiufeng and said, "Brother Zhu, let's go back together." ”
Li Qiufeng shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Yuanwai, you go back to the dock first." I always feel that this matter is too strange to see. ”
Zhang Shi was startled, and said: "Brother Zhu, didn't you listen to what the shopkeeper Hu said? That old Zhang killed three people in Tsing Yi with a gesture. If you go back and meet this evil spirit, you are afraid that you will lose your life here. Let's go back to the ship with the rest of us. ”
When he said this, he turned his head and glanced at Xiao Dong and the others, who had been walking more than a dozen steps away, and then lowered his voice and said to Li Qiufeng: "Brother Zhu, I see that the bastard surnamed Xiao is not at ease with you, if you don't go back to the dock with him, I'm afraid that he will be suspicious, which will be unfavorable to Brother Zhu." ”
Li Qiufeng said: "Thank you for your kindness." It's just that this matter is very important, and if you don't take a look, it's always difficult to rest assured. I'm worried that those people are coming for us, and even if we escape back to the ship, they will definitely have another poisonous plan. Instead of sitting and waiting for them to do something, let's go and find out what they're trying to do. ”
When Zhang Shi heard Li Qiufeng say this, his heart sank, and he secretly thought that although Dongliao County was an important town in Liaodong, it was just a border place. The five people in Tsing Yi, as well as the strange master and servant that Shopkeeper Hu and the others met, are all not ordinary people. These people have gathered here, and they must have other plans. If you really come to your own group, I'm afraid that things will be very bad. This kid wants to take a look, but it's a good idea. Although this person is greedy for money, he is strong in martial arts, and he is alert, so he goes to investigate, even if he encounters a strong enemy, he is enough to protect himself.
Thinking of this, Zhang Shi deliberately made a worried look, glanced at Li Qiufeng, and said: "Brother Zhu, you have such intentions, Zhang doesn't know what to say." It's just that if you insist on going, why don't you invite Master Xiao back, and the two of you will go together and take care of each other......"
Before Zhang Shi's words fell, Li Qiufeng shook his head, smiled, and said: "Outside of Zhang Yuan, you know much more about Lord Xiao's personality than me. Not to mention that he refuses to go with me, even if he is willing to go with me, I am still worried that when it comes to a critical moment, he will use me as a tiptoe stone first. ”
When Zhang Shi heard Li Qiufeng say this, he couldn't help laughing, nodded again and again, and said, "Brother Zhu is right. This person will only be the icing on the cake, and will definitely not give carbon in the snow. Brother Zhu, you must be careful on this trip, if you encounter an enemy, you don't have to entangle with him, just flee back to the dock. ”
Li Qiufeng nodded and said to Zhang Shi: "Zhang Yuanwai, you should go back with the shopkeepers quickly, don't worry about it." I'm just going to investigate, not to fight the enemy. If you encounter danger, you can pat your ass and leave, even if the enemy wants to die, how can it be so easy?"
Zhang Shi said goodbye to Li Qiufeng, turned around and chased after Xiao Dong, Shopkeeper Hu and others. Li Qiufeng saw that everyone had walked more than a hundred steps away, so he turned around and walked forward quickly.
