Chapter Eighty-Seven: Killing the Thief

On the morning of the second day, the post guard cleaned up the room and took a look at it in surprise, Pei Ziyun looked up and thought about it, and smiled: "I started practicing my sword last night, and I accidentally lost some of it, and the silver was compensated to you, so you reported it yourself, and the extra is the reward for you." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The post guard saw that it was three taels of silver, and only some tables and chairs were damaged in the room, which were not worth the price at all, so he smiled: "Thank you Xie Yuan." ”

As he spoke, he sent Pei Ziyun out, last night there were dark clouds, there was some light rain, and it turned into snow, and when he went downstairs, he saw Liao Ge looking at the snow in front of the door.

Pei Ziyun went over, and Liao Ge said: "Xie Yuangong, look at the weather, it will snow heavily later, I have obtained the cloth, and everyone will have to wear it then." ”

"It's the first time I've gone far away, and I've heard these things arranged by my lords. "The matter of the original owner, there is no need to say it at this time, the group went out of the post station, not far away is the ferry, and crossed the river by boat.

Not long after the four people and a car got on the boat, there was a wind, and the heavy snow continued to fall, hitting the river, and the turbid river water rolled up the waves.

Liao Ge and Pei Ziyun chatted at the river view at the bow of the boat, and could hear the sound of snow hitting the robe, Liao Ge just smiled and said: "This river view in the snow always makes people feel emotional and happy." ”

Pei Ziyun nodded: "This situation and this scene are really poetic, if there is wine, I really want to make a poem." ”

Liao Ge smiled: "Haha, Xie Yuangong, do you know, you have a nickname, known as the wine fairy, this official business, I didn't bring good wine, otherwise I would have invited Xie Yuan to drink wine and chant poems against it, it will inevitably be a good story." ”

"yes, it's a pity that there is no alcohol. Pei Ziyun looked at Jiang Jing and sighed.

At this time, the boat was silent, only listening to the slight northwest wind and the rustle of heavy snow flakes falling to the ground, in this silence, Liao Ge said: "Actually, I really envy Xie Yuangong, I am now forty-three years old, and it is not easy to survive until now from the ninth grade, this official road is really difficult, speaking of which, this time I would like to thank Xie Yuangong, if it is not for this time to go to Beijing, I am afraid I don't know when and where I can turn into a positive nine products." ”

Pei Ziyun looked into the distance wistfully: "This is your chance, don't do my business, if you are not proficient in the way of officials, I believe that the Governor will not let you do this,"

Liao Ge said: "Xie Yuangong, originally I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you to tell you about my daughter, but I never thought that Xie Yuangong would not give me this opportunity. ”

Pei Ziyun Chen Mo for a while: "I have a sweetheart, thank you for your love." ”

Liao Ge was stunned for a moment when he heard Pei Ziyun's words, and then laughed: "Xie Yuangong, my family is only four years old, I was joking just now, and I hope Xie Yuangong doesn't mind." ”

Pei Ziyun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

Liao Ge smiled bitterly: "I am not from the imperial examination, I have boiled dry oil, and I am only from the ninth grade, but this is already a great Xu Ende, in the previous dynasty, I was born as an official, and I couldn't enter this threshold." ”

"I only got a daughter in middle age, and I don't have any other thoughts, as long as I enter a Zhengjiupin, get a serious official body, add more dowry to my daughter, and marry a good family in the future. ”

"This is all an opportunity given by Xie Yuangong, so I am very grateful to you. ”

Pei Ziyun understands that this world pays attention to the right people, has a serious official body, and the scope of what can be married is much more arrogant and better, which is also a fatherly heart, looking at his wrinkled smile, he can't help but feel a little sad.

reed

There are faint figures, a group of people are speaking in low voices, all holding knives in their hands, wearing robes, and the reeds are braided on them, mixing these people with reeds, and they can't tell whether they are people or reeds, and these people have murderous aura on their faces.

The snow was falling, hitting these people, they were all tied with white silk, and among these people, there was a little girl who was holding her father's hand, this was the father and daughter who Pei Ziyun saw eating cold steamed buns at the post station.

And there was a table in the midst of the reeds, and there were bowls of liquor, and a chicken, and somebody had taken the chicken on the ground, and had drawn his knife and killed it, and poured the blood of the chicken into the wine.

The father who took his daughter to the front, picked up the wine bowl and raised it, and shouted: "Today, we want to avenge the people of Fuxian County and kill these two people, but one of these two people is an official, and the other is a lifter, and if we kill these two people, we will have no way back, and everyone will dry up this cup of blood wine today." ”

Hearing this, everyone raised their wine bowls, and one of them cried: "Brother Qi, all seven members of my family were killed by the Japanese Invaders, and the Japanese invaders fled to the sea, so we will first kill the two dog officials who colluded with the Japanese Invaders." ”

"What I said is that there is also this Hou Mansion, sooner or later we will fight hard, and we will die with them. ”

Seeing everyone talking, the little girl had stubbornness in her eyes, and stepped forward to take a glass of wine, and the father was stunned and said, "Guo'er, what are you doing here?"

The little girl stepped forward stubbornly: "Father, you can drink this blood wine, I can also drink it, my mother was killed by the Japanese Kou, I also have a great enmity with the Japanese Kou, today the blood is an alliance, although I am a woman, I also want to drink this blood wine to do my part." ”

Listening to the little girl's words, everyone in the audience was silent, who doesn't have this blood feud?

A big man beside the father said: "Guo'er, since you have this heart, how can we refuse, big brother, you should be proud of Guo'er, but Guo'er, you are young and can't hold a knife, and killing people is not suitable for you." ”

"Uncle Chen!" the girl shouted, listening to the little girl's shout, the big man laughed: "We are going to kill this dog official and lift people today, and then Xiaoqing, you help us bury the bodies of these two dog officials, which can be regarded as a credit for you to kill the thief." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Chen" Listening to this man's words, the little girl said with a sweet smile.

"Let's do it together, kill these two thieves for the people of Fu County!" this big brother Qi shouted loudly.

"Let's work together to avenge our parents, brothers and sisters in Fuxian County. Everyone shouted loudly, and then they all raised their bowls, and drank the blood wine, and when they had drunk it, they smashed the bowl to the ground, and the bowl fell to the ground with a bang, and the porcelain tile fragments flew in all directions.

"Ahem" Xiaoqing drank the blood wine, choked a few times, and drank all the wine not to be outdone, learning from these elders, and threw the bowl on the ground, but it was not broken the first time, and it was broken when he picked it up and fell the second time.

At this time, the father touched the little girl's head: "Guo'er, you hide in the reeds later, don't come out, Dad and Uncle will go and kill these two thieves who collude with the Japanese Invaders." ”

"Yes, father. I just want to come back safely, my mother was killed by the Japanese invaders, and I can't live without my father. Hearing Guo'er's words, the iron-like man turned his head and looked up at the sky, the rain and snow hit his face, mixed with tears, and he couldn't tell what it was.

After a while, the father lowered his head: "Guo'er, you go to the grass to hide, we will go, no matter what happens, you don't come out." ”

Speaking of this, this big brother Qi's face turned resolute, and he wiped his face: "Brothers, follow me!"

The snow and rain continued to fall, Pei Ziyun entered the cabin, and the four of them roasted the fire in the cabin.

As he was talking, he suddenly felt that the ship had hit something, and then there was a pop, and there was no sound.

"Boatman, boatman?" a box soldier shouted, went outside, saw that the boat was empty, only a water wave, remembered the sound of diving just now, this box soldier was a long-term war veteran, couldn't help but be surprised, shouted: "It's not good, we have been ambushed." ”

As the van soldiers shouted, listening to the sound of the boat being chiseled under the boat, the faces of the van soldiers in the boat changed, and they hurriedly said: "My lord, it's not good, this boatman is scuttling the bottom of the boat, and wants to drown us in this river." ”

"Quick, row to shore. Liao Ge was also frightened and shouted loudly.

"It's my lord. The soldiers were also decisive, and they tried to row over when they received the order.

"Xie Yuangong, what do you think of this?" Liao Ge's face changed.

Pei Ziyun's face was cold, someone assassinated last night, and today someone wanted to do something on the boat, listen to the sound, and it didn't take long for a small hole under the boat to start leaking.

There was another sound of chiseling, Pei Ziyun's eyes flashed a cold light, he drew his sword, felt it, and replied coldly: "Naturally, I will send him to the underworld." ”

As he spoke, he stabbed in one place, only to hear a "poof", and the thick bottom of the boat pierced into most of the sword body like tofu, and then pulled it out, and a stream of blood sprayed up.

On the shore side, these people in the reeds all looked at the river and whispered: "Lao Wu has good water nature, as long as Lao Wu scuttles and sinks the boat, even if these people swim to the shore, they will be exhausted, maybe they will be killed by Lao Wu in the river, and then I will take revenge a little." ”

"Look, boss, those guys are rowing, but the boat looks like it's been scuttled. A big man pointed and said, obviously, the ship was sinking.

Pei Ziyun went out from the cabin, looked at the boat, and couldn't help frowning, the boat was still fifty or sixty meters away from the shore, and the shore was full of reeds, and it was impossible to see if there was an ambush inside, but now the ship was about to sink, and he drank at the moment: "The boatman has been killed by me, just plug the gap with cloth and cotton, and we will be safe when we get to the shore." ”

"Yes, Xie Yuangong. ”

A few people in the reeds looked at this picture, and couldn't help frowning, the boat was rowing towards the shore, why didn't the boat sink? Could it be that Lao Wu missed?

Seeing that the boat was getting closer and closer to the shore, Pei Ziyun looked at the reeds in the distance, smiled coldly, took off his inconvenient robe, and revealed a pair of soft armor inside.

Liao Ge was a little shocked and said, "Xie Yuangong has to go down to kill the thief?"

Pei Ziyun looked at the thick reeds and drew his sword: "The boat has been chiseled through by someone, and it won't last long, let's lean on it, and if it runs aground, it will be fine, and it won't sink!"

"But this is covered with reeds, I'm afraid that there will be an ambush when I land, I'll go down and check first, you are on the boat to protect Lord Liao." Pei Ziyun said arrangedly, jumped off the boat, and landed in the reeds.

The snow and rain were cold, and some of the people in the reeds did not have the art of war, and when they saw someone jumping down, they shouted: "Brothers, follow me, kill!"

With the shouting of Boss Qi, the group waved their knives and rushed out of the reeds with a shout, and pounced towards Pei Ziyun.
