Chapter 199: Drama - Chaos (7)

"Did you find anyone?" asked Zheng Tai at Peng Ze, who jumped back into the turtle boat.

Peng Ze shook his head and said helplessly: "No! I guess I fled to the edge of the city from underwater." ”

When Zheng Tai heard this, he nodded dejectedly, and then said: "Forget it if you don't find it, that person has been hit by several crossbow arrows, and even if he rushes back, he won't live long." ”

"Besides, this place is very close to the main road, and if we look for it any longer, it will be bad if the officers and soldiers on the city gate see it!

Peng Ze naturally had no opinion after listening, just now he saw that the person fell into the water after being hit by an arrow, Peng Ze immediately chased after the bloodstains, the man was bent on fleeing for his life, the wound was behind his back, and it was impossible to stop the bleeding in the water, so naturally there would be no trick of hiding in place and not going far.

Peng Ze chased all the way to the end of the water, and saw that the northwest gate of Yangzhou City was not far ahead, so he had to give up the pursuit and rush back towards the turtle boat.

So, then the two turtle boats turned their bows, took Peng Ze, and quickly rushed back along the road that had just opened.

The cut road is still more than ten zhang away from the landing, in the reeds, unless they fly to the reeds and look down, the pedestrians on the road in a hurry will naturally not notice this huge area, which looks shocking.

As for being found in the future, the teenagers are afraid that they will not be in Yangzhou for a long time, and they are just left with some legendary talking points for the fishermen.

A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Tai, Peng Ze and others returned to the dock.

Seeing this, Wang Tieniu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?

"Escaped!" replied Jung Tae truthfully.

"Escaped?" Wang Tieniu said in surprise.

"Hmm! I got a few crossbow arrows in my back and escaped!" Zheng Tai nodded emphatically.

Seeing this, Wang Tieniu was silent for a moment, and then said: "If you escape, you will escape! I am afraid that we will not live long if we are hit by a few arrows, but for the sake of insurance, we still have to leave Yangzhou as soon as possible!"

After speaking, he made a decision in an instant, and said to Peng Ze: "Brother Peng, this last batch of money is shipped away quickly, we will stay in Yangzhou for a few days at most and then rush to Jiangning, bother Brother Peng to take the first step!"

Peng Ze shook his head when he heard this: "Okay!"

After speaking, he turned around and jumped on the fishing boat, and led the group of more than a dozen fishing boats away from the dock and towards the main stream of the canal.

"What should I do, what should I do?" Wang Tieniu watched the fleet go farther and farther, but a person stood on the dock, muttering incessantly.

"Zheng Tai, how do you think we can attract the attention of the Seven Sects and the Five Surnames, and let them expand the jurisdiction of the City Division, so that we can continue to make money?"

When Zheng Tai heard this, he looked at him with straight eyes, then rolled his eyelids, and said with a shy smile: "How can I know about this kind of business thing?"

"Otherwise, the flying pigeon will pass the book back to Yuzhang and ask the eldest brother!" Although no answer was given, it was obvious that Zheng Tai still said a solution to the problem, and it was a good way!

Wang Tieniu was a little moved when he heard this, but then he shook his head vigorously and said: "This flying pigeon is back to Yuzhang, and it takes three days for the fastest red carrier pigeon to go back and forth.

The smile on Zheng Tai's face became more and more, looking at this "dead face" iron bull, he spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Then I can't help it!"

"Alas, Li Xian, what do you say? What should we do?" Wang Tieniu turned around and grabbed a strong man again.

Li Xian was stunned when he heard this, as long as he replied stubbornly: "The owner can't think of a solution, where can I, a buddy, come up with it?"

"Hmph, why did I raise you guys who just eat and don't work?" Wang Tieniu pretended to breathe.

"We have to do a lot of work every day, okay!" Li Xian muttered as he looked down at his toes.

"Huh?" Wang Tieniu let out of his nostrils.

When Li Xian heard this, he quickly closed his mouth.

"Okay! I know how to bully newcomers! You better think of a way! This time back to Yangzhou, the eldest brother will let you call the shots!" Zheng Tai said as he held his head in his hands and walked towards Zhuangzi leisurely.

Wang Tieniu behind him was still sighing and said, "What should I do?

……

Not to mention Wang Tieniu, who was still meditating here, and the seriously injured Zhan guard, after coming out of the reeds, he quickly headed towards the north of Yangzhou City.

Zhan Guard didn't know if the people behind him were still following, he just desperately fled along the way, the arrow in the back of the heart was afraid that it had injured his internal organs, and with the blood flowing out, Zhan Guard really felt that the vitality was passing quickly.

His steps were already a little vain, and his eyes began to blur, but a belief in Zhan Guard's heart was supporting him not to fall.

"I have to go back and report to my master! These guys are too strong, they will ruin the master's big business!"

The reason why he came to the north of the city was because the Zhan guards knew that even if the eyes of the veterans guarding the city gate were cloudy, it would be impossible to let him go, a man with a few crossbow arrows stuck in his back, but the Zhan guards did not dare to pull out the arrows, because then he might die immediately.

Moreover, there is a water gate in the north of Yangzhou City, which is usually used for ships to enter and exit, and Yangzhou City at this time naturally has no merchant ships coming and going, but the water gate is still opened and closed on time, and now at this hour, the water gate has not been closed, and it is the only place where he can enter Yangzhou.

Once you enter through the water gate and swim all the way along the waterway, it won't take long to reach the owner's mansion in Yangzhou.

In the north of Yangzhou City, in a gorgeous mansion, the three people who discussed the general trend of Yangzhou in the tooth shop in the morning are having dinner in the restaurant at the moment.

The extraordinary middle-aged man sat on the main seat of the head, eating the delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table, and frequently looked up towards the gate of the mansion, with a trace of worry in his eyes.

"Brother Li, are you worried about the two guards sent out?" The man with pale sideburns sat on the left hand of the middle-aged man, and when he saw the middle-aged man looking at the gate from time to time, he asked.

"Let the brothers laugh, these guards around me are all old brothers who have been with me for many years, so they will naturally be a little worried. The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Haha, Brother Li is so considerate of his subordinates, he really has the style of a virtuous lord, which makes my brother admire!" The man with slightly white sideburns replied with a laugh.

"Brother Li, don't worry! These guards under your command are all experienced in a hundred battles, and they are all strong in martial arts, this time they are just to find out some news! What danger can there be?" The man in green shirt on the right hand of the middle-aged man also said with relief.

"Also, maybe I'm putting too much heart into it!" the middle-aged man bowed slightly.

Afterwards, the three of them continued to have dinner......

"Lord...... Master!" A terrible cry was coming from a distance, and it was the direction of the gate of the mansion.

"Oh no!" The middle-aged man listened to this voice that had changed tone but was still familiar, and secretly said in his heart, and with a shake of his hand, two ivory chopsticks fell to the ground, and with two "pops", the precious chopsticks fell into four pieces.

It's just that the middle-aged man still has the heart to care about this, so he quickly straightened up, didn't even wear shoes, and strode out of the restaurant and ran towards the door.

Seeing this, the other two hurriedly stopped throwing cups and ran out.

The mansion is huge!

From the dining room to the gate of the mansion, through countless corridors and corner gates, the middle-aged man ran quickly, not missing the exquisite scenery of the pavilions and rockeries on both sides, and only thinking about the screams that came.

At this moment, the middle-aged man hated himself very much in his heart, why did he buy such a big house!

Finally, after running for a quarter of an hour, the middle-aged man ran to the gate out of breath.

I saw that on the high railing of the gate, there was a man in a dark robe lying on his stomach at this moment, with several shocking crossbow arrows stuck in his back.

The nightmare came true, and after the middle-aged man stayed for a moment, he quickened his pace and rushed over.

When he came to the man, he hurriedly ignored the clothes on his body, knelt on the ground with his legs, and helped the man with trembling hands.

"Master, Zhan's guard is seriously injured, I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid it's no longer good, the little ones don't dare to move, just wait for the master to come......" There were two rows of housekeepers standing at the door, one of them, the third housekeeper in charge of the door, lowered his head and said to the middle-aged man.

It's just that the middle-aged man didn't seem to hear it, and his trembling hands gently lifted Zhan Guard's shoulders, and called out in a trembling tone: "Brother Zhan!

Hearing the familiar voice of his master, the Zhan guard raised his head with difficulty, and pointed at the middle-aged man, his throat moving lightly.

The middle-aged man hurriedly put his ear to Zhan Guard's mouth, ignoring Zhan Guard's hair mixed with blood, river water, and dust: "Say it!

"Young man...... More than 23 million ...... The Great Master...... Turtle Boat ...... Relaxed...... Yu Zhang......"

Before he finished speaking, the Zhan guards were like burnt incense candles, and the breeze blew, completely extinguishing the light of life......

"Brother Zhan!!" The middle-aged man immediately hugged the Zhan guard, and howled loudly in a poignant tone full of grief.

"Ahhhh

The middle-aged man was like a mad tiger, looking up to the sky and howling.

At this time, the rest of the guards who had heard the news came running behind him......

The middle-aged man's eyes were instantly fascinated by tears, holding the corpse of Zhan's guard, and he refused to let go of it.

"Lord...... Master, mourn, Brother Zhan is gone!" Among the guards who heard the news, a man who was obviously the leader of the guards said to the middle-aged man with a sad face.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he stretched out his hand and gently closed the eyes of the Zhan guard, stood up tremblingly, and his body shook from time to time, but fortunately, the leader of the guards on the side hurriedly helped him when he saw this.

"Go...... There is also a brother who did not come back...... Go find ...... If you live to see people, you must die to see corpses!" the middle-aged man ordered intermittently to the guards on the side.

"Yes, master!" replied the guards, their eyes filled with determination and the death of a confidant.

Then, the guards rushed out of the door, and under the command of the leader of the guards, they dispersed in groups of two, and searched all the way along the streets in front of the door.

And the middle-aged man, who was overly sad, slowly walked towards the deep courtyard with the support of his subordinates.

The two big red lanterns hanging on the gate emitted bright lights, pulling the back of the middle-aged man very long......
