Chapter 245: Luo Family Manor
The No. 2 family in Xianning Luofu sneaked the South China Tiger back, and it was Xiao Xiaohan who reported it to his father-in-law Mi Tianyi, and found Shi Jinzhuan, who came back from vacation, to prove it in person, because it was Shi Jinzhuan who saw the return of the South China Tiger with his own eyes. Mi Tianyi decided to capture the South China Tiger.
Although the old man of the South China Tiger is not a member of the Jade Belt Party, he led ten Mauser spearmen to kidnap Mi Tianyi last time, wanting to force him to marry his daughter to Robelle, and later Mi Garrison was rescued by Xiao Xiaohan. Then the armed attack on the green worm money bank, trying to extort the bank, although it ended in failure, but caused heavy casualties.
Judging from the above situation, the South China Tiger has committed serious crimes and committed many crimes, and it must be arrested and brought to justice.
During the time when Xiao Xiaohan left Xianning, Lord Mi Garrison sent capable servants to secretly monitor the area of Luofu, but no trace of the South China Tiger was found.
The garrison troops were mobilized again and searched in Luofu, but no target was found. He detained Luo Beile to the garrison yamen, and after interrogation, Beile Ye confessed that the South China Tiger was hiding in Luo's manor.
Considering that the South China Tiger is good at change, deep and spicy, and worthy of being the loyal lackey of the Luo family, and a capable general, if a large army is transferred to the manor to search, it will inevitably startle the snake, so he sent Mifu servants to dress up as agricultural workers in Luofu Manor, and secretly visited the peasant workers.
The four generals of Luofu usually did all the bad things of bullying and oppressing peasants and workers, forcibly collecting land rent, deducting wages, and even robbing men and women. So the peasants were impressed by every general, but the result was that none of them had ever seen the old man of the South China Tiger come to the manor.
Master Mi believes that the South China Tiger must be secretly hidden. Due to the lack of clarity about the target, the arrest was put on hold for the time being.
At this time, Xiao Xiaohan returned to Xianning from Qinzhou and learned that his father-in-law Mi was unsuccessful in searching for the South China Tiger.
He has sensed that this time the South China Tiger returned to Xianning, there must be his purpose, and looking for him Xiao Xiaohan to avenge that knife revenge is one of them.
Another assault on the Frog Bank was the second, as nine of the ten Mauser spearmen were killed in the process of extorting the bank.
So how should we deal with the South China Tiger? Do we prepare him with a pig-killing knife? This is absolutely not possible, Lao Hua must be prepared in the future, and he will inevitably restrain his original weakness and crush his opponent by more ferocious means.
The key now is to find out where the South China tiger is hiding.
The last time he went to the manor to rescue Lord Mi Shoubei, Xiao Xiaohan already had a preliminary impression of the grand manor, so he decided to sneak into the manor secretly to find out the hiding place of the South China Tiger.
Luofu Manor is built in a valley, three hundred miles away from Xianning. From afar, you can see the ancient castle built on the mountain, which is painted by the setting sun with the mysterious color of green and dark shadows. Beneath the castle were the long houses of the two chambers, which were located in a wide courtyard surrounded by greenery, and which could accommodate one or two thousand people. The houses are adjacent to the surrounding foothills and are covered by tall aspen trees, so there are no walls around them.
This manor was forcibly robbed by Luo Yingxiong more than 20 years ago.
The original owner of the manor was a hereditary nobleman of the Three Dynasties, and he owned this territory with a radius of 8,000 miles. It is a rich territory, with dense primeval forests, large and small rivers and springs, countless birds and animals, minerals in the mountains, and fertile fields for hundreds of miles.
In that thousand-year-old castle, it was rumored that there were endless treasures, and some people even threatened to see the castle radiating colorful light on a full moon night in a certain year and month, which was very magical.
As the saying goes, the tree attracts many thieves, and this inestimable ancient castle, together with this territory with a prescription of eight thousand miles, has been targeted by a pair of thief eyes, and that person is Luo Yingxiong, the world's official in the world.
At that time, Luo Yingxiong was still a thousand generals from Wupin, serving in the Beiyang Army. Soon an opportunity came, Luo Qian led his team of 1,000 people to ride a stormy night, surrounded the castle in the manor, a terrible trumpet, thousands of wolf-like soldiers pounced on the militia guarding the manor, a mess of knives, like a rain of arrows from locusts, dozens of old and frail militia soldiers were in different places. This was followed by a bloody massacre of everyone in the castle and the house.
More than 600 men, women, and children, including the owner of the manor, together with the tenants and militia soldiers who rented the land, were slaughtered in the city, and not a single one was left behind......
Now it seems that the building scale of the Luo family manor is mainly in two parts, one is the ancient castle, and the other is the ordinary house.
The houses are inhabited by peasants who work part-time, and the long-term workers live in huts in the countryside.
The east and west wings of the private houses were not allowed to be inhabited by peasants, and there were also granaries and important land for property.
Xiao Han knew that in a tightly sealed room in the east wing, there was also an automatically controlled ten-zhang deep dark well, where Master Mi was imprisoned last time.
The east and west wings, as well as the mysterious and terrifying castle, should be the focus of the search.
On that night, Xiao Xiaohan quietly sneaked around, first searched and probed the east and west compartments, and opened the big copper locks with a mantra secret, but there was no one else in the room except for a group of family members.
Can the South China tiger hide in an ancient castle?
At this time, the east wanted to know, Xiao Xiaohan had to temporarily withdraw from the manor, return to Xianning, and report to Lord Mi Tianyi about the search results of the bungalows in the compound of the Luo family's manor.
Xiao Han said to Mi that he was going to search the castle next.
Master Mi warned that the castle was mysterious and weird, and Luo Yingxiong learned that there were a large number of rare treasures hidden in the castle, so he forcibly occupied the manor by bloody means. However, it has not been possible to excavate the inside of the castle, one is the supernatural phenomenon in the castle, when people have not waited to enter the inside, they are so frightened that they can't move.
It is said that Luo Yingxiong had sent two groups of soldiers to attack, and none of the 200 people came out alive after entering.
"Little Han child, how can you get in?" asked Mi-sama meaningfully.
Xiao Xiaohan says:
"If the South China Tiger can get in, it means that it's not a dead end, and I can go in. ”
Mi Shou said:
"Don't be reckless in advance, I'm going to discuss it with your master Yan Yongfei to see if he has any tricks. ”
Because the South China Tiger sneaked back to Xianning, Qingfu Qianzhuang also felt nervous, and the owner of Qianzhuang, Lai Tianhu, begged Master Yan not to leave Qianzhuang for a moment. In this way, Master Yan went to the money village in the city to hold on.
In response to Lord Mi Shoubei's request, Master Yan decided to take advantage of the late night to inspect the Luo Family Manor.
