Chapter 18: Counting the Counts (Part I)

Zhao Renjie and Ying'er were surrounded by the killers, Ying'er desperately protected Zhao Renjie, a sword made it superb, and the two sides fought for more than 20 rounds without a winner. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Qian Yuanwai saw that the killers could not succeed, so he had to go into battle in person. He snatched the old swordsman's three-pointed two-edged knife with his hand, and approached Zhao Renjie with great momentum. Zhao Renjie had no weapons in his hands, and he was not familiar with boxing, so Qian Yuan was pressing step by step, so he had to dodge.

"Zhao Renjie, you just accept your fate!" Qian Yuanwai stepped forward quickly, forced Zhao Renjie into a corner, and sneered.

Ying'er was so anxious when he saw that he jumped out of the circle with a false sword and hurried to stop it.

Qian Yuanwai raised a big knife and slashed at Zhao Renjie's head.

Zhao Renjie knew that he could not escape death, so he simply closed his eyes.

At this critical moment, a "whoosh" flying knife came from the window, impartially pierced the wrist of the money clerk raising the knife, and the money clerk said "ah", and the big knife fell to the ground.

Zhao Renjie opened his eyes and saw a young man in his twenties breaking through the window.

"Senior brother, why are you here?" Ying'er exclaimed happily.

"Master calculated that the two of you were in trouble and asked me to come and help." The young man said with a smile.

Qian Yuanwai saw that Zhao Renjie had come to help, and his wrist was injured, so he had to leave with a few killers.

Ying'er was about to catch up, but Zhao Renjie stopped him.

"Lord Zhao, I've frightened you. My name is Gouwazi, and I am Ying'er's senior brother. I heard from the master that you are also his apprentice, and the three of us are brothers in the same sect. The junior brother was going to Yangzhou, and the master said that Cheng Haoshu, the prefect of Yangzhou, had deep roots and was not easy to deal with, so we should deal with it carefully. The dog said.

"Senior brother, you just came from Master, is Master and his old man okay?" Zhao Renjie asked.

"Fortunately, when I came to Qingxi Town, Master and his old man were in retreat, and Master asked me to come to help, and he also brought you a letter." The dog baby said and handed the letter to Zhao Renjie.

Zhao Renjie opened the letter and wrote:

Renjie is a virtuous nephew, and he is like a book.

Wei Shi has just returned from Suzhou, and on the way he learns that the Yangzhou prefect has hired a killer to kill you. For the teacher to be old, he can't be by your side, so he sent a big apprentice dog baby to help you. Cheng Hao, the prefect of Yangzhou, colluded with lake bandits and pirates to resell salt, embezzled official silver, killed innocents indiscriminately, and committed many crimes. In Yangzhou, there is an old friend for the teacher, this person is nicknamed the clouds and rain, is a first-class swordsman in the rivers and lakes, chivalrous and courageous, living in seclusion in Yangzhou Yunyu Villa, if you encounter trouble, you can go to ask him for help. Virtuous nephew, you are new to the rivers and lakes, you don't know that the rivers and lakes are sinister, and you have to think twice before acting.

For the teacher's words are all here, cherish.

Teacher's own handwriting.

Zhao Renjie read the letter, knew the master's hard work, and was grateful.

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time, let's immediately set off to Linjiang County to meet Zhao Yu." Zhao Renjie said.

"My lord, what should the three of them do?" Ying'er asked.

"Bring it back to the yamen." Zhao Renjie said.

When Ouyang Jiashen heard this, he was both happy and panicked in his heart.

"My lord, I-" Ouyang Jiashen was ashamed of himself, and swallowed back when the words came to his mouth.

"You have your own troubles, and this is the end of it. However, you have to go back to the yamen with us to explain the problem. Zhao Renjie said.

"My lord, I've said everything I should explain, and we are also forced to be helpless." The middle-aged swordsman said.

"My lord, the Qian County Order arrested our family and threatened us to die for him, please make the decision for us." Ouyang Jiashen said.

"What's your name? What did you do before? Zhao Renjie asked.

"Liu Yifei, a grass farmer, used to be the head catcher in Linjiang County, but because he couldn't get used to seeing Qian County Ling and his master acting in embarrassment, bullying the people, and fish and meat villagers, he resigned from his position as a head catcher and went home to cultivate the fields with his wife and children. This morning, while the grass people were not at home, the Qian County Commander sent someone to kidnap my wife and children, forcing me to come out and work for them. My lord, what the grass people said is true, please be aware of it. Liu Yifei said.

"My lord, Ouyang Jiashen, a grass citizen, is just a swordsman wandering the rivers and lakes, he just came back from Shandong not long ago, and he wanted to take good care of the eighty-year-old blind old lady at home, but he didn't expect that the dog official surnamed Qian actually arrested my old lady. I went to look for the surname Qian desperately, but I didn't expect it to fall into their hands. Qian County ordered me to kill you, if I can't kill you, he will kill our mother and son. Ouyang Jiashen said.

"Yes! Qian County Ling said the same thing to me. Liu Yifei said.

"Then why don't you kill me?" Zhao Renjie asked.

"Adults are wise and martial, how can the grass people be opponents? Besides, if you are a good official, how can we kill Zhongliang by mistake? Ouyang Jiashen hurriedly said.

"My lord, what shall we do?" Ying'er asked.

"It's important to save people." Zhao Renjie said.

"Qian County's order wants your head, so he is willing to give up, they return empty-handed, how can Lord Qian let it go?" Ying'er felt very embarrassed. Zhao Renjie looked at the scarred face lying on the ground, had a plan, and said happily: "I have the best of both worlds, which can both rescue the hostage and punish the unconscious official." ”

"What's your plan?" Ouyang Jiashen couldn't wait to ask.

"First of all, you take my head and hand it over to Qian County to rescue the hostages, and then you will leave." Zhao Renjie said and picked up the three-pointed two-edged knife from the ground.

When Liu Yifei and Ouyang Jiashen heard this, they were stunned, and hurriedly said, "My lord, I can't help it. ”

Zhao Renjie swung a knife and cut off Scarface's head, changed his face and turned into Zhao Renjie.

Ouyang Jiashen and Liu Yifei were ecstatic when they saw it.

"You take the head first, and a few of us will arrive later, you can rest assured, before the Qian County order is subdued, the three of us will not show our true faces." Zhao Renjie said.

Ouyang Jiashen and Liu Yifei listened to Zhao Renjie's words, as if they had taken a reassuring pill, and the two of them hurriedly returned to Linjiang County with bloody heads.
