【Fengyun Reading Network.】
Zhao Qi quickly picked up the mud on the ground with both hands and filled it into his arms, and said: "I'll rush out first to attract their attention, Master Hou, you take them to rush west as much as possible, as long as you enter the forest, you can ...... if you escape" Before the words were finished, he only heard a coquettish shout in his ear, "I'll come" Lin Huaishu rushed out
Chang Sihao was so frightened that it was too late to stop him The sound of the gun outside exploded He knelt down Ten miles of time flew around "Click" The wall of the shed was cut open to the ground and shouted: "Take Mr. Liang away" Suddenly supported the fire beam on the roof of the shed with one hand and pushed it outward
The entire small squatter shed rose from the ground, the cigarettes were smashed forward with fire, and the Xu family retreated one after another
Liang Bolong saw Lin Huaishu lying on the ground covered in blood, stretched out his hands and rushed forward: "Xiao Linzi" The dumb voice roared and slashed The mouth was full of blood Zhao Ke saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly pulled the collar and carried him on his back and ran west Behind the shed, there were people from the Xu Mansion guarding After throwing the torch, they kept raising their guns and aiming At this moment, I saw someone fleeing Hurriedly put the guns Rao is Zhao Ke is pace is extremely fast, but there are also a few hits on the body Endure the pain and continue to rush forward Suddenly he was hit by a bullet in the leg Flutter Tom fell The saber on his waist fell to the ground
The Xu family Ding was overjoyed: "It's down, it's down", and he came around
Liang Bolong was also hit by two bullets He crooked on the ground and saw Zhao Ke's distorted cheeks and saber Stunned for a moment, he rolled over and picked up the knife and raised it high into the sky and roared: "My ** you are my mother" The knife was slashed like a day's snowflakes, his eyes were red through fire, and he rushed forward
Seeing him, the Xu Mansion family was crazy, and his hands were so frightened that he couldn't reload, and in an instant, he rushed to the front and cut down several people one by one
Chang Sihao took advantage of the smashing of the fire shed in front and rushed out to fight with his sword However, the other party had too many people He didn't dare to fight When he turned around and saw that Liang Bolong was still shouting and slashing there Knowing that it was not good when he landed Hurriedly shouted: "Go, go" Dang a sword Catch a person as a shield on his back Rush to this side Xu Fu Jiading didn't dare to chase too close, but hurriedly loaded the bullet and released the gun, and the flesh and blood of the human shield flew sideways
There were not many people who set fire behind the shed and were killed by Liang Bolong Chang Sihao arrived again and suddenly a few swords were cleaned up He urged again and again Liang Bolong also reacted Throwing the knife and holding Zhao Ke in his arms He also wanted to hug Lin Huaishu's body Chang Sihao grabbed and said: "Let's go" Pushed forward After breaking himself, the two fled westward
The Xu brothers were furious, beckoning and shouting, and all the families were on the same page, aiming and shooting while chasing and shooting Daodao figures poured out from the gap in the squatter shed and merged into a piece Under the sound of the gun, there seemed to be a black tide flashing with starlight Chang Sihao looked behind while fleeing Fortunately, the accuracy of the fire gun itself is not high, and it is even more uncertain when the iron bullet is hit during the run, otherwise how many lives he has is not enough to throw Suddenly there was a "plop" sound Liang Bolong tripped and fell to the ground Zhao Qi looked at the blood gushing from his shoulder Struggling and shouting: "Master Hou, you take Mr. Liang away quickly" Liang Bolong shouted: "Don't take him away" Chang Sihao shouted: "Don't talk nonsense." He grabbed Zhao Ke's arm and threw him on his back, and put his other hand under Liang Bolong's armpit, dragging and dragging him forward
He bears the weight of three people by himself No matter how high Rao is kung fu is, his speed will be affected It is easy to escape from this open land Seeing that he has reached the edge of the woods The Xu Mansion family members chased after him Look at the distance There is a ** ten steps away Xu Fan shouted: "Aim and hit me"
The Xu Mansion family Ding hurriedly braked, the end of the gun ignited, and the iron bullet flew past Chang Sihao's ears, and the sound of breaking the air "rested" sounded, and at the same time, dozens of iron horses rolled up like a whirlwind on the official road behind him, and the smoke and dust rose as soon as he walked, and the fire flashed, and the sound of the gun was loud, and the Xu Mansion family Ding fell to the ground one after another
The Xu brothers had already taken refuge behind the crowd and waited until the smoke and dust cleared, and the dozens of horsemen had already circled back with their bows and crossbows, and shot at the foot of the formation The sound of hooves was rolling on the official road, and a group of men and horses arrived
When Xu Fan saw that the people who came were all dressed in official clothes, he was confident enough to stand up and shout: "Well, which yamen are you from?"
The leader of the team wore a dark green cloak His face was hidden in the dust hat The tip of his jaw was slightly exposed in the moonlight The gap in the cloak was open The ivory white cloud brocade official uniform was faintly visible Below was the big red silk pants that were shivering in the wind A pair of mid-waisted soapy black official boots Listening to his shout, he didn't pay attention to it Stretched his sleeves to the side A little stretch out his sleeves to the side All the cavalry shouted in unison: "Lay down your arms" The sound wave was loud and penetrated the sky
The Xu Mansion family usually bullies the good and the good, how can he stand the power of such a tiger and wolf When he arrived, he threw his swords, guns, and firearms to the ground
Xu Fan was angry and shouted: "Pick them all up."
The man in the dark green cloak suddenly flashed out behind the horse, and the halberd pointed and shouted: "It's him, he's Xu Fan, and next to him is his brother."
Xu Fan saw that the person who spoke had white hair and a scarf, his face was wrinkled, and his left arm was hung with a bandage, and it was Song Youde, the old head of the Song family's class, and his face changed slightly
Song Youde still wants to speak, the official in the dark green cloak opened his hand to stop him, and swung forward with his two fingers, and the two wings of the horse team behind him quickly outflanked everyone in the heart of the Xu family The official smiled: "You old man is old, and it is dark this day, and he must have admitted that he is wrong, how can the two sons of the dignified Xu Pavilion dress like a family member and bring people out to rob the house?" He waved his hand: "Come on, give me these bandits to correct the law on the spot."
"Wait," Xu Fan knew that the official's family could do anything, and hurriedly stood up and shouted: "I am Xu Fan, you don't recognize me, your boss will always recognize you, everyone is your own person, don't misunderstand."
"Is it true" The official turned his head sideways and snapped his fingers, and the soldier escorted a string of prisoners, wearing blue shirts, all dressed as members of the Xu family, He said to Xu Fan: "These people blocked the road and robbed and killed the troupe, and they were met and arrested by the lower officials, and they confessed that they were instructed by the two sons of the Xu family, how can the lower officials believe it? The first two are your sons-in-law."
Everyone raised their eyebrows and rolled their eyes at the two sons, and they didn't dare to say anything
Xu Fan's face stiffened slightly, these people were indeed sent out by himself, but recognizing them now is equivalent to admitting that the pursuit and killing of the troupe was instigated by himself The identity of the official in front of him is not yet clear Whether he can cover himself is not necessarily If he continues to hold on, he is afraid of falling into an embarrassment
Xu Kun took half a step forward and said loudly: "In Huating, there are many people who have been entrusted to the Xu family, and the clothes are the same, we may not recognize them, but most of them recognize us, but the reputation of this Song family class has always been bad They often sing in front of them Colluding with some thieves to sneak in the crowd and then sit on the ground and share the spoils It is also to blame for arousing public anger Not to mention that on this big night, they don't stay in the store and don't rest, and they flee in a hurry It's a big problem in itself I think it's better to leave this matter to the local yamen to deal with This official, do you say it's a reason?"
The official smiled: "Well, it is reasonable and reasonable, since this is the case, there is no need to identify the mastermind, but sit on the ground and share the spoils, there must always be stolen goods After being inspected by the lower officials, except for a few boxes of costumes and bits and pieces, the people in the Song family class do not have anything of value with them, and even if they steal money, they will not be guilty of death.
There were soldiers next to him who pressed the string of prisoners to the ground, starting from the head of the platoon, and killed them one by one, and the crumbling skulls fell to the ground one by one like a bloody scoop, and just hit the third one, and the others couldn't stand it, and they cried to the ground, and said: "The eldest son, the second son, help", "You can't leave us alone", "These are all what you let us do."
Although the brothers of the Xu family are powerful in this way, they have never seen such an understatement of murder Xu Fan looked angry and was about to speak Xu Kun pulled the corner of his clothes The two held back
Those people took a look at this posture Obviously, these two sons are going to stand by and watch, kowtowing one by one, like pounding garlic, vying to confess how the Xu family instructed them to rob the people's daughters, force people to surrender, illegal smuggling, etc., and beg the adults to open up
The official waved his hand, stopped the execution, and said with a smile: "Okay, there is no need to say more, there will be a place for you to say in the future, come, tie up the rest, and wait until you return to Beijing for a detailed trial."
When Xu Fan heard the word "return to Beijing", he asked: "This official is from Beijing."
The official took out a piece of paper from his bosom and shook it gently
Xu Fan and Xu Kun straightened their eyes when they saw this, inhaled the cold air and said, "Dongchang driving sticker"
The official took a sip of the dust hat back, revealing a pair of angry willow leaf eyes and smiled slyly: "Exactly" Er Xu looked at each other knowing that the people of the East Factory were in the sky Killing the officials of the third or fifth grade was like eating and drinking Water Father Xu Ge also had to respect them for three points These people can't easily provoke Xu Kun laughed: "It turned out that the officials of the East Factory had arrived My father was an official in the court Pingsu and Guo Dugong also had a lot of dealings, so we are not outsiders."
The official smiled and said: "Ouch, it seems that the two sons of the Xu family are here, but I don't know why the two of them dressed up as family members set fire to guns outside the city late at night."
Xu Fan said: "We brought people out to catch thieves and thieves The big man with white beard and white hair over there stole other people's property under the guise of singing The two next to him are the Jiang Yang thieves he colluded with These three people are very powerful in martial arts One is not careful to be escaped by them Just in time for you to lead the troops here That's the best It is best to beat them to death This credit is yours Our brother just set up a banquet to wash the dust for the adult's congratulations."
The official laughed and said to Chang Sihao: "Ouch, this is very interesting, big brother, when did you become a Jiangyang thief?"
Chang Sihao said: "What kind of person am I, isn't it just a sentence from the two sons?"
When Xu Fan heard the answer between the two, his eyes straightened and he pointed at the official: "You...... You are Qin Juexiang" Xu Kun reacted very quickly, stared at Chang Sihao with both eyes, and exclaimed: "Ouch, how are you...... You are the Hou Chang Sihao in the clouds...... Oops, the flood washed the Dragon King Temple, my brother only said that you were killed by pirates in Guangdong, how did you think that you were not dead, alas, this is really a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
"Phew" Qin Juexiang said angrily: "If you don't recognize my eldest brother, how can you call my name What are you pretending to be now?" Xu Kun was speechless, knowing that he had made a mistake in his busy schedule, and this time it was a big leak Qin Juexiang shouted: "Give me all the Fa-rectification"
His soldiers raised their guns and ignited the fire at the same time Chang Sihao shouted: "Slow" Walked a few steps closer and said in a low voice: "Absolute sound, these two people can't be killed for the time being, let's keep it and it's still useful" Qin Juexiang frowned and said: "Big brother, it's a rare opportunity today...... Chang Sihao nodded: "I know, just listen to me"
Xu Fan looked at the two of them and whispered, saying that he was also jealous of the identity of his old man, with a smile on his face, he shook his brother's hand and shook it closer and said: "As far as I know, Brother Xiao Qin is a person from Nanzhen Fusi This time, I invited Dongchang to post it Some powers are too much, it's not good Actually, it's just a little misunderstanding between us We are all people who do big things, why bother to take it to heart, let's go into the city, I'm Xufu Zuodong, let's drink it and get drunk."
Chang Sihao didn't look at it, and his arm was raised and flung back
With a "bang", the fist hit Xu Fan's face and knocked him into his mouth with lips and teeth, and a fist pit appeared on his face, and the nosebleed came out with all his strength, and another part of it got into his trachea, choking his hands and coughing
Chang Sihao's bloody fist was frozen in the air, and he didn't reply: "This is what I fought for Miss Lin, and the others will be written down for the time being" The soldier came over and held Xu Fan aside and pressed it aside
Xu Kun took a look at this scene and knew that Chang Sihao was extremely angry The hero does not suffer the loss in front of him Waiting for the soldiers to come over, he hurriedly obeyed and tied up One of the Xu Mansion family members All untied their belts and tied them together The wounded who fell to the ground and did not die were mended one by one There were accompanying medical officers to treat Zhao Qi and Liang Bolong Another sergeant was going to collect Lin Huaishu's body Liang Bolong hurriedly stopped and went to take care of it himself
After everything was dealt with, the team turned around and walked slowly to the north Chang Sihao asked: "Did Xiaoqing find it?" Qin Juexiang didn't expect him to ask about this first Busy answer, but he didn't find it However, he has already sent manpower many times I believe that whether it is death or life, there will be results soon Chang Sihao was silent Qin Juexiang hurriedly diverted the topic and told how he came here Saying that he learned the news from the south in Beijing I heard that my eldest brother was shipwrecked at sea and was killed by pirates When I got angry, I asked for an order to immediately mobilize people to go south Day and night How did he get to the boundary of Huating because it was too late, he had already set up a small camp to rest, but he was made angry by a chaotic sound, and came out to check It turned out to be a scene of the Xu family's people chasing and killing the Song family's class, and I took it down and asked about the reason, I heard that the Xu family had two ways of people, and the other way was here, and I guessed that there might be a plan, so I immediately led the troops over
Chang Sihao sighed gloomily: "It's a pity that it's a step too late, if you can come a little earlier, Lin Huaishu won't die" also briefly said that he escaped his life at sea and drifted to Hainan
After hearing this, Qin Juexiang nodded again and again, and said: "I said that the eldest brother is blessed with a great life, and it will not be sent to the hands of those pirates Dare to love is what Wu Shilai and Liu Shiyan did The two dogs did What they did was done by Xu Jie, let's just kill Lao Xu's two sons today Why is the eldest brother still stopping me, don't you want to use it on 'Reverse Xu' " "
Chang Sihao said: "Yes, there are these two people in their hands, and I am not afraid that Xu Jie will not obey."
Qin Jue said: "Hey, chop them into meat paste and send them to Lao Xu, maybe he will be angry when he rolls his eyes when he sees it, how untroubled is this?"
Chang Sihao said: "Don't underestimate Xu Jie's forbearance, if he makes a move, the entire Ming Dynasty will be turned upside down With you and my brothers, they are far from being his opponents I have my own judgment on this matter, and there is no need to say more" Originally, Qin Ziyin's affairs in Xiao Mansion should also be told so as not to worry about him as a younger brother But there is a matter of Hengshan in front of him, so he has to consider it, so he does not mention it
The group slowed down their trip On the way back to the north, they took time every day to interrogate people and criminals and dig up the crime In a day, the Beijing division was close Qin Juexiang broke up and sent the Xu brothers and all the family members to the trial sword villa for secret detention Since entering the city with Chang Sihao Just entered the south gate at dusk A team of East Factory officers escorted the car to greet the crowd Guo Shuronghua got out of the car and walked straight out to the front and looked at each other and said: "Master Hou, I want to be ruined."
