Chapter 189: Master Hong Qianqiu
Ge Gangyu, who was standing on the fortress wall, frowned, but he didn't know where he came from.
The sedan chair was not slow, and soon came to the gate of "Gejiabao". The sedan chair stopped, the sedan curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged man came out of it.
This person has a white face, thin eyebrows and small eyes, three long beards, wears a royal blue brocade forging robe, and wears a Confucian scarf on his head.
Although his appearance was not good, he was full of style, and after getting off the sedan chair, he glanced around, and then stood on the ground with his head held high, as if he did not pay attention to the dozens of officers and soldiers on the side of the road.
Zhou Xiong, who was standing on the side of the road, hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "Master Hong is above, Zhou Xiong will greet you!"
Zhou Xiong is the head catcher in the yamen, and the official frame is not small, but when he saw this middle-aged man, he whispered and bowed to salute, obviously this person's status in the official government is still above Zhou Xiong.
This time, there is no need to ask Ge Wanjin, Ge Gangyu also knows this person.
This middle-aged man with a roe head is named Hong Qianqiu, the master of the prefect's yamen, and it is said that he is also a distant relative of the prefect's Lord Yinxi, who is deeply trusted, and can be regarded as the number one person in the officialdom of Changsha City. Although Ge Gangyu does not have a deep relationship with the government, he has been in this city for many years, and he has seen this Hong Qianqiu a few times in various social interactions.
But I heard Master Hong say to Zhou Xiong: "Zhou Zhutou, you are not in the city to handle the case, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Xiong said: "Back to the master's words, the villain was ordered by Shangfeng to arrest the anti-thief Zhang Xianzhong and the remnants of the party, and he happened to come to 'Gejiabao' to inspect today." ”
Master Hong nodded and said, "I see, what is the result?"
Zhou Xiong said: "The villain has entered the fort and inspected carefully, but he has not found any trace of the thief party, and now he is about to return to the city." ”
Of course, he didn't dare to tell the money he had received from "Gejiabao", so he didn't say anything about entering the fort.
Master Hong's eyes widened, and he reprimanded: "You are really confused!" The people in 'Gejiabao' are all heroes and heroes, and the lord of Gebao is a righteous man loyal to the imperial court, where can there be a thief who dares to come here?"
Zhou Xiong didn't dare to argue, and bowed his head and responded: "What Master Hong said is very true, the villain really shouldn't come. ”
Master Hong ignored him anymore, walked straight up two steps, came to the gate, and said to Ge Gangyu on the high wall: "Is it the lord of Gebao above, I have been ordered by the prefect to submit a secret letter to the lord of the castle, please open the door and let Hong in!"
If the previous Zhou Xiong could still be sent away with silver taels, now that this Master Hong is here, it is not so easy to send away.
This person is the confidant of the prefect, and he was ordered to come, and it is impossible to say that he will be turned away, not to mention that Zhou Xiong told him just now that he had entered the fort to inspect, and if he did not open the door and let Hong Qianqiu come in at this time, it would seem that he was only targeting him, and he had to offend this person.
Ge Gangyu thought about it for a while, but he also felt that this person should not be in any danger. First, Master Hong Ge Gangyu had already known him, which was different from the head catcher Zhou Xiong who had never met, and secondly, he only brought two personal soldiers to come, if the alliance of the four factions was going to attack the fort, it would be impossible to bring only this manpower.
Old Lady Ge was still pondering, but Master Hong was already a little impatient, and said: "Hong Mou came this time to bring a big news on the order of the prefect, which is a rare good thing for you'Gejiabao', the castle owner doesn't open the door to greet him, what are you waiting for?"
Ge Gangyu heard this, and finally made up his mind, and said, "Master Hong, wait a minute, Ge will welcome Master into the castle." ”
He waved his hand and commanded, "Open the castle gate!"
There was a "squeak" sound, the heavy wooden door was pushed open, and Ge Gangyu led his four sons down the high wall and walked out of the door.
However, as soon as he left the fort, Ge Gangyu immediately sensed that the situation was wrong!
Master Hong Qianqiu was still standing in front of the door, but he didn't move, but the more than 30 subordinates who caught the head Zhou Xiong quietly grabbed it, and in a blink of an eye, they had occupied all sides, forming a situation of encirclement, surrounding Ge Gangyu and his son in the middle. The head catcher, Zhou Xiong, also stood beside Master Hong, pressing the handle of the waist knife with his hand, looking ill-intentioned.
Ge Gangyu's face changed immediately, and he asked in a deep voice, "Zhou Zhutou, what do you mean by this?"
Zhou Zhutou said with a smile: "The villain has no other meaning, just acting on the orders of Shangfeng." ”
At this time, I heard Master Hong shouting loudly: "I am instructed by the prefect to block the master's hand, investigate the collusion of the five father and son of 'Gejiabao' Ge Gangyu and the intention to rebel, and the special order will be brought to justice, if you dare to resist arrest, you will be killed!"
I had to listen to the sound of "swish" a few times, and the officers and soldiers around had already pulled out their waist knives, and dozens of steel knives flashed with cold light, forcing Ge Gangyu and his son!
Ge Gangyu reacted very quickly, and shouted: "Return to the fort!"
At this time, there were only five people who walked out of the fort gate, Ge Gangyu father and son, and there were more than 30 officers and soldiers around.
The "Ge Family's Four King Kongs" each have their own martial arts, and their reactions are not too slow, and when they heard their father's greetings, they immediately retreated and rushed towards the door. But Ge Gangyu did not retreat but advanced, his body suddenly jumped up, like a goshawk into the air, but the target was Hong Qianqiu, who was three feet away in front of him!
This Master Hong is the leader of the officers and soldiers, and if he can be captured in his hands, it will be of great benefit to the situation in front of him.
The truth that the thief captures the king first, Ge Gang understands it very well.
Just now, Master Hong was still in good spirits, but at this time, when he saw Ge Gangyu rushing into the air, he was so frightened that his legs were weak, and it was too late to retreat. Seeing that Ge Gangyu's giant palm had grabbed Master Hong's chest, he saw a figure flickering, and one person had already stepped out sideways and stopped between the two, it was the head catcher Zhou Xiong!
Ge Gangyu hated Zhou Xiong so much that he not only accepted the silver taels, but also designed to frame their father and son, which is really damn extreme! Seeing him blocking the way, Ge Gangyu's body jumped in the air before he landed, and he had already punched and kicked three times in a row, and he was about to kill this guy on the spot!
Ge Gangyu is a lay disciple of the Shaolin faction, a tyrant who dominates one side, at this time he moved his murderous intentions, his fists and feet flew out of the strong wind whistling, and his power was amazing, even if he was a first-class player on the rivers and lakes, it was difficult to resist, not to mention a head catcher in the yamen?
Zhou Xiong was not in a hurry, and he made a few moves in a row, and he easily blocked Ge Gangyu's three punches and one kick!
"Bang bang bang" four muffled sounds, the two of them intersected with their fists and feet, and made four moves, Ge Gangyu had already taken advantage of the momentum to jump backwards and retreated three zhang away, that Zhou Xiong sneered, and stood in the local area and did not chase after him.
As soon as Ge Gangyu's feet hit the ground, he found that his four sons were also forced back. Just now, the "Ge Family Four King Kongs" tried to rush through the gate and return to the fort, but not even a single person could rush through!
Ge Gangyu's gaze swept to the gate of the fort, and he immediately understood everything.
Two teenagers stood outside the door, one left and one right, one of them stout and empty-handed, while the other held a broadsword, and the sword light swam like a snake. They were all wearing the costumes of officers and soldiers, but Ge Gangyu could recognize them at a glance, weren't these two of the masters that Hua Bushi brought to "Gejiabao" to make trouble that day!
The two people standing in front of the door were Zhu Hong and Li Hu, and on the other side, there was a young man with a handsome face, who was Ximen Hitomi. They had all been mixed in with the officers and soldiers before, and only then did they come out. With the existence of the three of them, how can the "Ge Family Four King Kongs" rush through.
Ge Gangyu had realized that the situation was extremely bad. It seems that Master Hong colluded with the "Evil Dog Gate" to deceive the gate of "Gejiabao" and ambush their father and son. If Master Hong brought too many men and horses, Ge Gangyu would be alert and refused to open the door, so the other party deliberately arranged for Zhou Xiong's team of officers and soldiers to arrive first, and Hong Qianqiu only brought two personal soldiers to come, which made Ge Gangyu misjudge.
He didn't expect that Master Hong, who was in the official mansion, would actually help the "Evil Dog Sect" to design an ambush for them, so that he didn't investigate for a while and was deceived. This plan is really quite strange, and since the other party can set up such a plan, he must have planned to wipe out the five of them, father and son!
From this, it can be seen that today's battle must be very dangerous, and the survival of the entire "Gejiabao" is only at this moment!
The Zhuang Ding in the fort saw that the old ancestor and the four big masters were surrounded, each holding a weapon, and wanted to go out to rescue, but they were blocked by a group of officers and soldiers brought by Zhou Xiong, and they couldn't rush out. And Ge Gangyu immediately saw that these "officers and soldiers" were not weak in martial arts, and they must be played by the elite gangs under the "Evil Dog Gate".
Since there is no way out, you can only fight to the death!
Zhu Hong, Li Hu, Ximen Tong and Zhou Xiong, the head catcher, were divided on all sides, and there were twenty "officers and soldiers" on the outer edge, trapping the Ge family father and son. Zhuang Ding of "Gejiabao" was blocked at the door by more than a dozen officers and soldiers, and he couldn't rush out for a while. Ge Gangyu swept the corner of his eye, and he had already seen the surrounding situation clearly, but he also found that the four sons around him all showed frightened looks on their faces, and their hearts couldn't help but sink.
These four unsuccessful guys, although they have all practiced martial arts, but they are pampered on weekdays, but now when it comes to life and death, they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and have no fighting spirit! As everyone knows, in such a situation, either you die, or I live, the more afraid you are, the more you have no way to live, it seems that many arrogances in the past have finally harmed them!
At this time, I heard the head catcher Zhou Xiong say: "Boss Ge, you are defeated and invincible in the current situation, why don't you surrender here, maybe there is still a way to live?"
Ge Gangyu glared at Zhou Xiong and said, "Who are you, you dare to pretend to be someone in the official mansion to deceive the old man?"
Shicai fought with this Zhou Xiong in four moves, and Ge Gangyu already knew that this person's martial arts had reached the realm of a first-class master, and he would definitely not be a small head catcher in the yamen.
Zhou Xiong smiled and said, "Boss Ge, you have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, have you ever heard of the name of 'iron-beaked crocodile'?"
Ge Gangyu's eyes lit up, and he said, "It turns out that you are the 'iron-beaked crocodile' Mo Wentian!"
