Chapter 36: Into the City
Riding a Qingzhou horse, Wang Jifei galloped all the way under the starry night, and finally rushed back to Shimen Town in the early morning of the second day of October, and came to a small village more than ten miles away from the town, ready to rest for a while.
Standing in the Chenghuang Temple at the entrance of the village, Wang Jifei looked at Shimen Town, which was shrouded in darkness in the cold wind, lifeless.
It's been four or five days since the Dark Star Gate and the Maiden Gate operated, how are the people of the Shunchang Dart Bureau? I hope it's still too late...... Wang Jifei, who was sleepy, was full of worries.
When leaving, a large number of people from the dart bureau came out, and it is estimated that all those left behind were Feng Anlin's people, what should I do if I am alone?
Distraught, he walked anxiously around the uninhabited temple.
There were still about three hours left before the city gate, and Wang Jifei thought about it while waiting.
Thinking about it, this time I still have to use the people of the Divine Capture Hall.
It seems that they are really going to join the Divine Capture Hall, although it is their duty to fight Feng Anlin who collaborates with the enemy, but this kind of major event cannot simply calculate personal friendships.
At about seven o'clock, Wang Jifei came to the city wall of Shimen Town, looked at the number of officers and soldiers at the gate of the city twice as many as usual, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Is there really an accident?
Secretly lowering the brim of his hat, Wang Jifei quietly lined up at the end of the line. After a while, he pretended to be impatient and chatted with a few people next to him who were also a little irritable.
"Why is it so slow to enter the city today, Lao Tzu's vegetables are going to wilt, how can I sell them?"
"Don't make any noise, I didn't enter the city until noon yesterday, and the old man picked up the wine again. ”
"Why are there so many officers and soldiers guarding the gate?"
"It shouldn't be a price increase, then Lao Tzu won't agree. ”
"You can pull it down, if there is a murder in the town, it will be raised, there is no reason for this. Besides, why don't you agree to the law when the price goes up, you can tell me about it."
In a hurry, Wang Jifei heard the news he didn't want to hear the most, and something happened to the Shunchang Dart Bureau.
In the middle of the night before yesterday, a group of people entered the dart game and killed more than 20 people in just half an hour.
Suppressing the anger and sourness in his heart, Wang Jifei pretended to be curious and asked the people next to him: "I heard from the people in the village that this Shunchang dart game is very powerful, why was it killed." ”
"It's amazing, but what's the matter, it's not like I'm almost wiped out. Sure enough, immediately a well-informed person stood up and said, "I tell you that my nephew is on an errand in the Yamen. He told me. The Shunchang Dart Bureau took over a big deal some time ago, and most of the people went to Jinshan Mansion, but it was smashed, and it was called a heavy casualty. Feng Anlin, the deputy head of the dart, rushed over with a group of people, and there were not a few people left at home, so there was an accident that night. ”
"Yes, yes, I've also heard that it's not been peaceful lately, and bandits have popped up in many places. I've never heard of so many bandits and bandits......"
"I don't know if my pork can be sold? Do you think the bandits will come to attack the castle tower......
Listening to it, Wang Jifei probably guessed it. It should be that after the news of their attack came back, Feng Anlin exaggerated and took the opportunity to disturb people's hearts. Under the pretext that Xu Fei and their heavy casualties were killed, the people of the dart bureau in Shimen Town were transferred, leaving only some caretakers. Those people in the dark don't need to guess to know that they are from the Dark Star Gate and the Maiden Gate.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, the communication in this world is really too backward, in his world, a mobile phone of two or three hundred yuan can bankrupt Feng Anlin's plan. I don't need to run back all night to report the news.
So far, I can only go to the city to see how the dart game is doing, and then go to the people from the Divine Capture Hall to ask. What happens next can only be said at that time.
After waiting for a long time, Wang Jifei paid the head money into the city and finally entered the city. As he was walking towards the dart board, a small stone was suddenly thrown lightly in front of him.
Wang Jifei stopped to look, and a dart game appeared around the corner, beckoning to him.
Just as he was about to ask, the other party made a gesture to let him follow. Wang Jifei, who was about to find someone to inquire, hurriedly followed.
He followed the man around a dozen or so turns, and finally got into an ordinary courtyard. When I entered the door, I saw that a man with an injured right arm was also in the room.
"Ah Fei, do you sit first?" the man with the injured right arm glanced out the door.
"Uncle Cai, why are you injured, why are you and Li Lin here?"
"Let's not talk about this for now, do you know about the dart game, how many people have you come back?"
"Uncle Cai, it's better for you to say first, I can't trust anyone now, please forgive me. ”
Hearing Wang Jifei say this, Cai Mingpeng was not angry, but looked at him approvingly and said, "You are right, it seems that your seventh uncle has taken you out." ”
Next, Cai Mingpeng, who looked gloomy, told Wang Jifei. The night before yesterday, the unsuspecting Shunchang dart bureau was attacked by about forty or fifty night people, the other party first secretly killed people, and after being discovered, they set fire to it, taking advantage of the chaos to attack, killing nearly fifty people in just half an hour, many of them old people and children. The methods of the Nightmen are extremely cruel, and most of their weapons are coated with poison beforehand. Later, when the people from the government came, the other party retreated, and the action was very decisive, and at a glance, he knew that the action had been planned in advance.
