【Commentary 049】Chapter 9 Catching the Thief

Zhao Ke 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 they enter the forest, they will ...... if they escape" The words were not finished, only a coquettish shout was heard in the ear." Lin Huaishu rushed out [Xianmo: Gain knew that it was a burden for him to escape, so he simply exchanged his death for the lives of others,],

Chang Sihao was too late to stop in shock, the sound of the gun outside exploded, he bowed down, ten miles of time flew around, "click" cut the wall of the shed to the ground, and shouted: "Take Mr. Liang away." "Suddenly, he supported the fire beam on the roof of the shed with one hand, and pushed it outward.

The whole small squatter shed rose from the ground, the cigarettes smashed forward with fire, and the Xu family retreated.

Liang Bolong saw Lin Huaishu fall to the ground covered in blood, and stretched out his hands and rushed forward: "Xiao Linzi." Zhao Ke saw that the situation was not good, and he quickly pulled the collar and carried him on his back, and ran to the west, and there were people from Xufu behind the shed, and they threw the torch and kept aim, and at this moment they saw someone fleeing, and hurriedly released the gun, Rao is Zhao Ke's pace was extremely fast, but there were also a few hits on the body, and he continued to rush forward in pain, and suddenly he was hit by a bullet in the leg, and he fell down, and the saber on his waist fell to the ground.

Ding of the Xu Mansion was overjoyed: "It's down, it's down." "Gather around,

Liang Bolong was also hit by two bullets, he crooked on the ground and saw Zhao Ke's distorted cheeks and saber, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly rolled over, picked up the knife and raised it high into the sky, and roared: "I'll your mother." "Sharpen the knife like a day's snowflakes [Xianmo: It can be described as flying snow in June], his eyes are red through fire, and he rushes forward,

Seeing him like crazy, the Xu Mansion family was so frightened that his hands trembled and he couldn't reload, and in an instant, he rushed to the front, slashed several people one by one,

Chang Sihao rushed out to fight with a sword while the fire shed was smashed in front, but the other party had too many people, he didn't dare to fight, and when he turned around, he saw that Liang Bolong was still shouting and chopping there, and he knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly shouted: "Go, go." "Dangling a sword, catching a person as a shield on his back, rushing to this side, the Xu Mansion family didn't dare to chase too close, but hurriedly put the gun on the bullet, and hit the human shield flesh and blood.

There were not many people who set fire to the back of the shed, and they 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, threw the knife and hugged Zhao Qi in his arms [Xianmo: The drama is meaningless, Mr. Liang is really righteous, no wonder he can enter the hero list], and wanted to hug Lin Huaishu's corpse, Chang Sihao pulled and said: "Let's go." Pushing forward, after breaking himself, the two fled westward,

The Xu brothers were furious, beckoning and shouting, all the families were on the gun, aiming and shooting while chasing, the Taoist figure gushed out from the gap in the squatter shed and merged into a piece, the sound of the gun seemed to flash the black tide of starlight, Chang Sihao looked back while fleeing, fortunately, the accuracy of the fire gun itself is not high, and it is not accurate to hit the iron bullet in the run, otherwise how many lives he has is not enough to throw, suddenly "pounce", Liang Bolong tripped and fell to the ground, Zhao Qi looked at his shoulder gushing blood, struggled and shouted: "Hou Ye, you take Mr. Liang to go quickly." Liang Bolong shouted: "No, take him away." Chang Sihao shouted: "Don't talk nonsense. 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, and struggling to move forward.

He bears the weight of three people alone, no matter how high Rao is kung fu is, his speed will be affected, and it is easy to escape from this open field, seeing that he has reached the edge of the woods, the Xu Mansion family chased after him, and saw that there was a ** ten steps away, Xu Fan shouted: "Aim, hit me." ”

The Xu Mansion Ding hurriedly braked, the end of the gun ignited, the iron bullet flew in Chang Sihao's ears, and the sound of breaking the air "Xiu Xiu" sounded, at the same time, dozens of iron horses rolled up like a whirlwind on the official road behind him, stepping on the smoke and dust, and the fire flashed immediately after walking, 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 family members, and when the smoke and dust dissipated, the dozens of horsemen had already circled back, shouldered the bow and crossbow, and shot the foot, the sound of hooves on the official road was rolling, and a group of people and horses arrived.

Xu Fan saw that the people who came were all dressed as officials, and he was confident when he stepped forward, and shouted: "Well, which yamen are you from?" ”

The leader of the team wore a dark green cloak, his face was hidden in the dust cap, 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, and below was the big red silk pants that were shivering in the wind, and a pair of mid-waisted soapy black official boots were under his feet. "The sound waves are loud, and the sound is through the sky,

The Xu Mansion family usually fights with people, bullying the good and good, how can he stand the power of such a tiger and wolf, and when he landed, he threw the knife and gun to the ground.

Xu Fan was angry and shouted, "Pick them all up." ”

A person in a dark green cloak suddenly flashed behind his 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 was white-haired and scarf-wrapped, with wrinkles on his face, and a bandage hanging on his left arm, it was Song Youde, the old head of the Song family's class, and his face changed slightly.

Song Youde was about to speak, the official in the dark green cloak opened his hand to stop him, and then swung forward with two fingers, and the two wings of the horse team behind him quickly outflanked, surrounding everyone in the Xu family, and the official smiled: "You old man is old, and it is dark this day, so he must have recognized the difference, how could 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, [Xianmo: Just like Erxu's method of dealing with Xiao Chang, retribution will come quickly]"

"Wait. Xu Fan knew that the official's family could do anything [Xianmo: written in his heart, it was even more ironic], and hurriedly stood up and shouted: "I am Xu Fan, you don't recognize me, your boss will always recognize me, everyone is their own people, don't misunderstand." ”

"Yes. The official turned his head sideways and snapped his fingers, and the soldier escorted a string of criminals, wearing blue shirts, all dressed as the Xu Mansion family, and he said to Xu Fan: "These people are blocking the road to rob and kill the drama troupe [Xianmo: Killing people must be killed outside, not at home, so leading the opera troupe into the house can not only hook out the line, but also determine the number of people, for the convenience of the post-mortem examination, the second Xu scheming is indeed much stronger than the third son,] , was met by the lower officials and arrested, they confessed that they were instructed by the two sons of the Xu family, how could the lower officials believe it, there were more than a dozen of them on the spot, and the rest of the people were still in this style, which made it a little difficult for the lower officials. As he spoke, he turned to the kidnapped prisoners: "Since you claim to be assigned by the two sons of the Xu family, you must recognize them, so now let's identify whether the two in front are your sons." ”

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 themselves, but recognizing them now is equivalent to admitting that the chasing and killing troupe was instigated by himself, the identity of the official in front of him is not clear, whether he can cover himself is not certain, 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 color of the clothes is 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, collude with some thieves to sneak in the crowd, and then sit on the ground to share the spoils, arousing public anger is also to blame [Xianmo: It is from the old plan of trapping Liang, and the second Xu machine has become like this] , What's more, this big night, they don't stay in the store and don't rest, and they flee in a hurry, which is a big problem in itself, I think this matter is better to be handled by the local yamen [Xianmo: They are all officialdom, but outsiders always have to give the place a little face, and Erxu Lianda is like this], this official, do you say that this is the reason. ”

The official smiled: "Well, it is 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 inspection by the lower officials, except for a few boxes of costumes and bits and pieces, the people of 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, one by one, and the collapsed skulls fell to the ground one by one like blood, and just hit the third, 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. "You made us do it. ”

Although the brothers of the Xu family are powerful in this side, they have never seen such an understatement of killing [Xianmo: If you are overwhelmed, you will be crushed to death, so look at this faint blood], Xu Fan was angry and was about to speak, Xu Kun pulled the corner of his clothes, and the two held back and did not speak,

Those people took a look at this posture, and it was obvious that these two sons were going to stand by and watch, kowtowing like garlic one by one, vying to confess how the Xu family instructed them to rob people's daughters, force people to surrender, and smuggle in violation of the ban, begging the adults to open the net.

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 talk about in the future, come, tie up the rest, and wait until you return to Beijing for a detailed trial." "Someone answered the call and escorted the prisoner back to the queue,

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 cold air and said, "Dongchang driving stickers." ”

The official swiped his dust hat back, revealing a pair of angry willow eyes, and smiled slyly: "Exactly." Er Xu looked at each other, knowing that the people of Dongchang were in flames, and the officials who killed the three or five grades were like eating and drinking, and his father Xu Ge also had to respect them for three points, these people could not easily provoke fire, Xu Kun laughed: "It turned out that the officials of Dongchang had arrived, and my father was an official in the court, and Pingsu and Guo Dugong also had a lot of contacts [Xianmo: Directly pull the top level of the relationship network], 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 the city 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, and the two next to him were Jiang Yang thieves who colluded with him, 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, it is no better, 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 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, what, you...... You are the Hou Chang Sihao in the clouds...... Oops, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, my brother only said that you were killed by pirates in Guangdong, how could I have thought that you were not dead, alas, this is really a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. ”

"Phew. Qin Jue said angrily: "If you don't recognize my eldest brother, how can you call my name, and what are you pretending to be now." Xu Kun was speechless, knowing that he had made a mistake in his busyness, and this time he was leaking, Qin Juexiang shouted: "Give me all the Fa-rectification." ”

His soldiers raised their guns and lit fires at the same time, and Chang Sihao shouted: "Slow." Approached a few steps and said in a low voice: "Absolutely loud, these two people can't be killed for the time being, let's keep it for the time being." Qin Juexiang frowned and said: "Big brother, today is a rare opportunity...... 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 brushed away his brother's hand, shook it and said: "As far as I know, Brother Xiao Qin is a person from Nanzhen Fusi, this time I invited Dongchang to post it, and it is not good to have too much authority, in fact, there is only a little misunderstanding between us, we are all people who do big things, why bother to take it to heart, let's go to the city, I Xu Mansion is the east, let's drink it and get drunk." ”

Chang Sihao didn't look at it, his arm was raised and flung back,

"Whoop", the fist hit Xu Fan's face, and he even knocked his lips and teeth into his mouth, a fist pit appeared on his face, and the nosebleed came out vigorously, and the other part got into the trachea, choking his hands and coughing,

Chang Sihao's bloody fist was frozen in the air, and he didn't turn his head back and said: "This is what I fought for Miss Lin, and the rest will be written down for the time being." The soldiers came over and grabbed Xu Fan and pressed him aside,

Xu Kun took a look at this scene, and knew that Chang Sihao was extremely angry, and the hero did not suffer the loss in front of him, and when the soldiers came over, he hurriedly obeyed and tied, and the Xu Mansion family Ding counted one, all of them were untied and tied together, and the wounded who fell to the ground and did not die were mended one by one, and there were accompanying medical officers to treat Zhao Qi and Liang Bolong, and another sergeant was going to collect Lin Huaishu's body, Liang Bolong hurriedly [Xian Mo: The two words have a reason, it is interesting to cover up, and it is always appropriate to bury deep and shallow hiding] to stop, and go to cook it himself,

After everything was dealt with, the team turned around and walked slowly north, Chang Sihao asked, "Has Xiaoqing found it?" Qin Juexiang didn't expect him to ask about this first, and he couldn't find it, but he had 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 led the conversation, told about his coming, and said that he learned the news of the south in Beijing, and heard that his eldest brother was shipwrecked at sea and was killed by pirates, and then I found it,

Chang Sihao sighed gloomily: "It's a pity that I was one step late, if I could have come a little earlier, Lin Huaishu would not have died." "I also briefly said that I escaped my life at sea and drifted to Hainan.

Qin Juexiang nodded again and again after hearing this, and said: "I said that the eldest brother is blessed with a great life, and he will never be sent to the hands of those pirates, and the dare is what Wu Shilai and Liu Shiyan did by the two dogs, and 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, do you want to use it on 'reverse Xu'." ”

Chang Sihao said: "Yes, with these two people in their hands, I am not afraid that Xu Jie will not comply." ”

Qin Juexiang said: "Hey, chop them into meat puree and send them to Lao Xu, maybe he will be angry when he rolls his eyes when he sees it, how uneasy it is." ”

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, far from being his opponent, I have my own judgment on this matter, there is no need to say more." "Originally, Qin Ziyin's affairs in Xiao Mansion should also be informed, so as not to worry about him as a younger brother, but there is the matter of Hengshan first, so he has to consider it, so he doesn't mention it, [Xianmo: It's not too late to talk about the child after birth]

The group slowed down the trip, and took time to interrogate people and criminals every day on the way back to the north, digging up the crime, and soon the Beijing division was approaching, Qin Juexiang divided his hands to send the Xu brothers and all the families to the trial sword villa for secret custody, since Chang Sihao entered the city, just entered the south gate at dusk, and greeted a team of East Factory officers escorting the car to greet them, and the crowd was divided, Guo Shuronghua got out of the car and walked straight out, and looked at each other hand in front of him: "Master Hou, I want to be angry." ”
