Jishui County began to build the city as early as the Tang Dynasty Qianfu period, at this time, the city opens five gates, namely the East Gate Wenming Gate, the West Gate Wenfeng Gate, the South Gate Wensha Gate, the North Gate Wenjiang Gate and the small east gate Wenchang Gate in the northeast direction. The five city gates all start with the word "Wen", which is extremely rare. However, Jishui County has always been the peak of literary affairs, such as "five miles and three champions", "one door and three jinshi", "nine sons and ten states" and other beautiful talks can be said to abound.

Among them, there were two imperial histories on both sides of the Enjiang River, one was Xiong Ji of the Yongle Dynasty, and the other was Zou Yuanbiao of the Wanli Dynasty. Zou Yuanbiao came from the Zou family of Jishui Xiaodongmen, known as a prodigy at a young age, once entered the court as an official, and then lived in the countryside to lecture for 30 years during the Wanli period, and Gu Xiancheng and Zhao Nanxing were called the three monarchs of the Donglin Party.

The Zou family is a big family of poetry heirlooms here, and there have been characters like Zou Yuanbiao, and their influence in the local area has always been not small. At this time, the Zou family is not as good as it was back then, but Zou Zhuoming, Zou Yuanbiao's own grandson, is also a member of the Changsha shogunate, and he is also a famous family that cannot be ignored in the local area.

The small east gate is where the Zou family lives, from this to the west, the head has passed the plaque with the book "Jincheng Pillar", continue to walk for a while, it is a house belonging to the Zou family, but it is where a side branch lives.

"The county raised Zou Nan, colluded with the traitor Liu Jing, attacked the official army, attacked the county seat, and brutalized the people. Now that the evidence of the crime is conclusive, you can open the door as soon as possible, or you can avoid the crime of covering up, otherwise you will be punished with Zou Nan's fellow party! ”

Outside the courtyard of the Zou family's house, the Qing army and the officials of the brigade surrounded the group, and there were 100 people. The officer of the Green Battalion led by him sat on his horse, fearlessly, and allowed a loud official to announce Zou Nan's crime to the mansion, and at the same time, he was also demoralizing everyone in the mansion.

The sound of crying faintly came from the courtyard, and the officer was a veteran of raiding homes and arresting people, and he was not without experience. Hearing this, he naturally had more confidence, and instructed the servant to shout to the house even harder, just waiting for the slaves inside to open the door, and they could rush in.

This is the easiest, it will not cause any casualties, and even the strength will not be used too much, and after rushing in, you can search the house in the name of searching for Zou Nan and his family.

This kind of work has always been fat, and the officer is accustomed to being a man, and he is also accustomed to doing things, and he only waits for the moment when the gate is opened by the terrified servants, and even begins to sketch in his mind how much gold, silver, and jewels he can find. It's just strange that the shouts of the officials came round after round, but they were like mud cows entering the sea, and there was no response at all. Yes, but the faint cry added a bit of chill to the afternoon sun.

"In broad daylight, can you really see the hell?"

With a wave of his hand, a group of Qing troops rushed straight to the gate. A small battering ram is best suited for such occasions, and it only takes a few violent blows for the heavy gate to split in two with a thud and slam into the courtyard walls on both sides. The bolt of the door had been broken into two sections, and the Qing army threw down the battering ram and rushed straight in. They were in the first place, while others still had to stay outside the courtyard to prevent people from escaping through side doors or over walls.

More than a dozen Qing soldiers swarmed in and soon disappeared into the passage leading to the main hall and the courtyards on both sides in the outer courtyard. Searching is their task, in such a situation, it is unlikely that Zou Nan will be caught at once, but at least they must find someone first, and figure out the strangeness here.

A moment later, vaguely, there seemed to be a shout of killing in the courtyard, but it quickly disappeared into invisibility. Then, there were no more similar sounds, but the cry was still faintly drilling into the ears, as if the shouting just now had never happened at all.

This house is becoming more and more revealing of the feeling that something is wrong, which makes people feel uncomfortable all over their bodies. Seeing this, the Qing army outside drank twice and asked what the situation of the Qing army inside was, but after another moment, there was still only a faint cry inside, but those Qing soldiers seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no response.

With another wave of his hand, more than 20 Qing troops rushed in one breath, and immediately dispersed when they entered the empty courtyard, looking for the people in the house, whether it was the people of the Zou family or the Qing army before.

Four or five Qing soldiers rushed into the West Cross Courtyard with swords in hand, and the courtyard was neat and elegant, and they searched for it, but there was no one but anyone. So, they went out of the west courtyard and continued to explore the depths of the house. It wasn't until a moment later that a soldier, known for his keen sense of smell, suddenly shouted that something was wrong, and then hurried to a firewood house in the distance following the smell. When he walked to the front of the firewood room, he didn't need to smell his nose to notice the smell of blood, several Qing soldiers looked at the blood stains in front of the door, looked at the closed door, and looked at each other again, and after a little hesitation, a Qing soldier who was the most courageous on weekdays shouted, kicked the door of the firewood room and slammed it against the wall, and then rushed in directly with a knife.

Inside, there are indeed people they are looking for, but unfortunately they are all dead. There are five in total, all of them in gray-blue military uniforms, you don't need to look at their faces, just a glance at their figures can determine these Qing soldiers who have just entered the search, and now they have died one by one in this remote firewood room, and their eyes are full of fear of the incredible scene.

"Quick, go and report to Mr. Qian!"

As soon as the Qing army who received the order turned around, he was directly stunned on the spot before he had time to take a step. He didn't move, and immediately aroused the displeasure of the Qing army who kicked in the door, but the question of "my words don't work" just said the word "I", and in the afterglow, there was already a strange man standing at the door of the room, and the cold light in his eyes was not inferior to the Miao knife in his hand.

"Now that you're all in, you don't have to let me move."

As soon as the words fell, Miao Dao had already pounced on him like a python. The firewood room is nothing more than a room, and it stands to reason that a three-foot white blade, or even a dagger in the arms, is the most suitable blade. However, at this moment, the man brandished the Miao knife and opened and closed, and each knife seemed to be slashing at the wall, but the blade of each knife almost brushed the wall, but blocked the way of these Qing army's counterattack.

Miao knife wielding, they are all waist knives, they dare not resist lightly, so they have to retreat step by step. However, there were not only corpses behind him, but also firewood, and after only two or three steps back, the dog-nosed Qing army stepped on the firewood and tripped over. It's just that the butt hasn't hit the ground yet, but the head has already flown out, as if his fall had been expected by the Miao knife.

Some people had already died, and the remaining few Qing troops were forced into a corner by fear, and had to fight back. However, in an instant, the last of the blood splattered on the window paper, and the ping-pong pong compared to the sword fell silent again.

The knife wiped on the uniform of the Qing army who kicked in the door, and Yu Youhan rushed out again with the Miao knife, and covered the door of the firewood room by the way. Less than two hours ago, he heard that in the restaurant in the west of the city, he hurriedly got the wine money, went out of the restaurant, grabbed a horse before he went far, followed by the Qing army and went out of the west city gate, and then rushed back straight to the Zou family.

After receiving the news, Zou Nan was a frightened bird, and hurriedly organized his family and servants to escape. After he returned to his hometown, because he was on a hidden mission, he was at risk of being exposed at any time, so he dug a secret passage in the courtyard of the house to a small courtyard behind the courtyard. This secret passage has been dug for several years, and it has already been completed, and he once thought that it would be useless, but he didn't know that it was still used in the end.

Zou Nan's family hurriedly entered the secret passage to escape, but the Qing army was about to arrive, and it was estimated that it would not take long for this secret passage to be discovered, and even if it was not discovered, as long as the Qing army could not find anyone in the house, they would inevitably immediately expand the search range, and they would never be able to escape the pursuit of the Qing army.

As long as they can hold on for an hour or two, even if the Qing army finds that the people in the house have run away, it will be too late to expand the search area, because at that hour, it will not be long before they can disappear into the night, and it will not be easy for the Qing army to find it.

This task was finally invited by Yu Youhan, and even the plan was immediately thought of after he heard that there was a secret passage in Zou Nan's house. But that cry was difficult for him, but it was a little difficult for him, and in the end, it was Zou Nan's niece who took it all out, thinking that it was for the sake of suspicion. In the words of the little girl, Yu Youhan is not afraid of hardships and dangers, and rushed to report the news, he has already been a great favor to the Zou family, and now Yu Youhan has asked himself to stay and delay, if even the Zou family refuses to stay and live and die with Yu Youhan, then how should the world look at their Zou family in Jishui Xiaodongmen!

With a plan, relying on her familiarity with the courtyard, the woman made a crying sound in one place, while Yu Youhan ambushed in the courtyard, sniping the Qing army who rushed into the courtyard to search.

This is already the second batch. Yu Youhan closed the door of the firewood room and rushed straight to where the woman was hiding, because the sound would eventually lead the Qing army there.

ran all the way, and sure enough, the last seven Qing troops really found that place. The woman held the scissors in her backhand, and the tip of the scissors pointed directly at her slender neck, trembling incessantly. However, because she was not in the open place, the Qing soldiers did not find her at first sight, but saw Yu Youhan who came in a hurry first.

"Hide your head and show your tail, and you won't be caught?"

Before the Qing army's heavy drinking landed, Yu Youhan rushed directly forward. At this scene, the Qing army couldn't help but be stunned, because there were seven of them, and Yu Youhan was only one. However, in the face of them, they were still completely fearless, which was really beyond their expectations.

The steps under his feet seemed to be slow and fast, and Yu Youhan's figure was like a ghost, and he rushed to them in the blink of an eye. Before the Qing army could react, the upside-down Miao knife was lifted backhanded, but the cold light flashed, and the Qing army led by him was disemboweled, and he fell to the ground in a daze.

Seven to one became six to one in an instant, but it was just this earth-shattering blow that startled the six people. In a short moment of astonishment, another Qing army fell to the ground, and before the remaining five Qing troops could take precautions, another person was cut to the ground by Miao Dao. Six to one, suddenly it became a situation of one to four!

Yu Youhan inherited from Qi Jiajun's "Xinyou Knife Method", he is extremely talented in this area, plus the master is the descendant of Qi Jiajun, and his martial arts have risen so fast, he has almost entered the realm of transformation over the years, and he is about to be better than the blue. At this moment, compared to those fearless Qing troops, he has already entered the state, and his martial arts are even more than the usual level, one move and one style, flowing smoothly, without the slightest meaning of dragging mud and water, the whole person is like a killing machine, and all the seven Qing troops were killed in just a moment. The only thing is that compared to the first batch of Fang Cai, there are only two more voices shouting and killing.

"It's only three things, the next round of Tartars will rush in, let's go now!"

Seeing that Yu Youhan had killed all the Qing soldiers, the woman put down the scissors. At this time, the green fingers had been working hard for a long time and there was a slight spasm, but when she saw Yu Youhan coming, Miao Dao was even dripping blood, but she felt safe, and nodded heavily.

A man and a woman disappeared into the secret passage, but outside the mansion, every minute and every second passed that was pulling the nerves of the Qing army and the officials.

This mansion seemed to them to be like a man-eating monster, and the door they smashed open was actually a bloody mouth, waiting for them to jump into it one by one, pounding and chewing them with their sharp teeth inside, and swallowing them into their stomachs. And those few casual shouts of killing are more like the clicks made by the bright red tongue licking the lips.

It was a long time before the Qing army rushed into the house, and it was not until the night was getting deeper that they found the secret passage. At this time, even if they were chasing, it was already late in the eighth spring, not to mention that there were still more than thirty corpses of the Qing army lying in the house, how could they dare to really catch up.

At the same time, tying the woman to a horse, Yu Youhan galloped while holding the horse back, and rushed to the meeting place one after another. Zou Nan had already thought about the rest of the matter, since the Qing army arrested him for colluding with Liu Jing, he really went to join Liu Jing this time, and he had to disturb the local Qing army. However, before that, he had one thing to ask Yu Youhan for, because the only thing he could trust at the moment was such an outsider.

"Don't hide it from the rest of the strong man, he is a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, aiming to lurk in the place, and he will have the opportunity to contribute to the expulsion of the Tartars in the future. The pseudonym of Chen Jinnan, the chief helmsman of this association, is actually Chen Kai, the governor of Guangdong in the current dynasty......"

Asking for something, Zou Nan asked himself if he had to show some sincerity, and he wanted to add some confidence to Yu Youhan. However, when Chen Jinnan's three words sounded in his ears, it was like thunder for Yu Youhan, which set off waves in his sea of knowledge. At that moment, it was as if I couldn't even breathe smoothly.

"It turns out that the mastermind behind this Heaven and Earth Association and the Mutual Aid Association turned out to be Chen Jinnan, who saved me in Jinhua; It turned out that Chen Jinnan was Chen Kai; It turned out that the person who was rumored to save Wang Jiang in Hangzhou during the period of recuperation in Zhejiang was really Chen Kai! ”
