Chapter 19 The looted Wei family
The river outside the county is crowded with people, and the festival is still going on, but something unexpected happens in the city.
At a wealthy merchant's mansion in the city, there were more than a dozen black-clad masked men on the wall of the house, and a dozen people nodded at each other and jumped down. The people in the mansion were still busy coming and going, but they were so frightened by the sudden appearance of the man in black that they screamed.
"Ah, there's a robber coming in." There were a few maids in the place where the men in black fell, and when the family members and subordinates in the house heard this shout, they all stopped their work and came to the place where the sound came from, some of them had a guy in their hands, and some of them didn't take anything. When I came here again, I said:
"Who is so bold as to come here to spread wild, let me catch him and break his legs."
"That is, someone dares to come here to do evil, catch him, and then hand it over to the head of the family, maybe the head of the family will pay me back as soon as he is happy."
"It's possible, wait for our brothers to catch him together, and beat him up first."
When these people came again, they looked majestic and high-spirited, but as soon as they saw the dozen or so people in black, their faces suddenly darkened, and there were countless grass and mud horses galloping on their heads, and they said to the people who came together: "What did I say just now, oh, by the way, the grass in the garden has not been pulled out yet, I will go now, and I actually went in the wrong direction, haha." The man slipped away. I ran faster than anyone else, and I didn't look like I was the best in the world just now.
These family members and maids, as well as the dozen or so people in black, all felt like they were about to faint, and said in their hearts: "Why is this person so shameless, it turns out that he didn't find out." At that time, these people want to think about it, but they also say some nonsensical reasons to leave, such as:
"I remember, the young master asked me to help him get something, he is still waiting, I will leave first, you guys play slowly."
"I remember that Xiaocui asked me to go to him just now, but I forgot about it and went now."
"I also remembered, Wang Er asked me to play chess, but I was delayed here, go now, otherwise he will be angry later."
One by one, they said some nonsensical reasons and ran away, as if they had seen a plague god. I'm afraid to finish a step.
In fact, it's no wonder that they are subordinates like them, their physical strength is average, except for doing a little work, they beat people with several or a dozen people together, which is a crowd tactic to hit each other.
And these dozen or so people in black, with strong martial arts, are as powerful as bulls, not something that these people can shake, plus they still have swords in their hands, and they will be completely sent to death if they go.
Those people had an urge to beat him when they heard the reasons given by the people who were looking for various reasons to escape, and the two named Wang Er and Xiaocui, hearing those two people, had a black face and said in their hearts: "How can I know this kind of person, it's really enough." I didn't dare to say I knew them. ”
But in the end, they left slowly, and this was not something they could handle. The rest of the people who didn't leave were either some masters invited by the owner, or people who thought I could defeat them.
"Just knock these people unconscious, remember what the adults commanded, don't kill people, otherwise it will be a big obstacle to what we do next." Among these black-clothed people, one of them said that he was not fluent in Chinese, obviously not a local, but a person of other nationalities, and after this person finished speaking, he couldn't help but complain: "Damn, these kills and don't kill, they can only fight, hey, it's really annoying." ”
"Yes, Boss." Those people didn't care about the complaints of the leader, they just responded respectfully, and then rushed towards those who hadn't left yet.
Those who didn't leave, when they saw those men in black rushing over, they also picked up the guys, and Calais staged a one-sided scene in the courtyard.
Those who didn't leave were at least twenty or so people, but they were all knocked out after holding on to half a pillar of incense in the hands of those black-clothed people for less than half a pillar of incense.
After dealing with these people, the leader said: "Let's go directly to his bank, don't fight, don't forget our purpose, it's to take money." After saying that, more than a dozen people went towards the silver vault of this house, and the poor thing is that the owner of this house is still talking and laughing at the festival site, I don't know what his expression is when he knows that his home has been looted by unknown people, and it is possible that he fainted on the spot.
The men in black took out several large boxes from this mansion and put them on a carriage that they had prepared a long time ago. He walked away, but he did not forget to leave a note on the door of the family's treasury, which read: "We will lend you two pieces of silver, this is an IOU, and we will pay it back when the time comes." Thanks a lot. ”
When these men in black came, some people wanted to notify the head of the house, and there was also the report to the official, but they were blocked as soon as they got out of the gate, that is, the carriage parked at the door, and there were two people in the car, in order to prevent someone from notifying others or reporting the crime when they moved, so it would be a little passive. Therefore, after they left, some went to the yamen, some went to the festival venue, and the rest were responsible for waking up those who had been knocked unconscious, and protecting the scene from destruction, so that there would be no trace of the official investigation when the case was investigated.
What happened in the city is over, and the festival is coming to an end.
Li Yan and Chen Meng paid attention to the two people in the crowd from time to time to see if they had any changes, but there was no change in the end, everything was normal, only the two of them talked and talked from time to time.
"Brother, this, this is all over and nothing happens, I wonder if the two of them just want to come and see this?"
"Well, I don't know about this, maybe it was and maybe it was like that, otherwise how could it be, but I always felt like I was ignoring something? But can't remember what? Chen Meng first agreed with what Li Yan said, but he was not sure what he thought.
Li Yan listened to the black lines all over his head, what difference does it make if you say it or not? But Li Yan didn't say it, just thought about it and said, "Forget it, is there anything happening." Wait a minute, let's take a look at those two people first, maybe we can come up with some answers. ”
"That's all there is to it now. Ay. Chen Meng sighed and said.
When the festival was over, and when the people had dispersed, nothing had happened, and then a few of the men from the family had come running to the stands of the adults, and shouted to a man of forty or fifty who was sitting on the very edge.
This Li Yan also noticed it, pulled Chen Meng and said, "Brother Chen, something may have happened." ”
"Huh? Where, where? When Chen Meng heard Li Yan's words, he immediately became energetic, and thought in his heart: "Have you finally done it, now you can let me show my skills," but Li Yan's next sentence extinguished his enthusiasm.
"It could have happened in the city, and we ignored it."
"What? Inside the city? I actually forgot about this stubble, miscalculated, let's go and listen to what they have to say. When Chen Meng heard this, he was taken aback, and could only say helplessly, if something really happened, it would be Chen Meng's dereliction of duty, after all, Chen Meng was responsible for safety.
"Well, that's what I plan." After Li Yan finished speaking, he said to Tang Shishi: "Sister Shishi, you wait and go back first, Brother Chen and I will deal with some things and come back." After Li Yan finished speaking, he and Chen Meng left.
When Tang Shishi heard Li Yan's words, she was about to say something more, but when she saw that Li Yan had left, she could only pout hatefully, to show that she was very unhappy with Li Yan now, but Yang Liaoxin, who was next to her, saw all the actions of Tang Shishi in her eyes, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, because Tang Shishi had never shown such an expression in front of them, but she was like this to Li Yan, although she knew that day that after saying it inadvertently, Tang Shishi still chatted with him like usual. He knew that Tang Shishi just regarded him as an elder brother, but he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.
But Yang Liaoxin is also a good person, plus he and Li Yan are good brothers, and they gradually accept it in their hearts, because some brothers and sisters are better than a couple.
To get back to the point, where did Li Yan and Chen Meng come to this high platform, those people knew that something was wrong because of the arrival of these family members, coupled with the panic and panic on their faces, and they all gathered around to see what was going on. And Li Yan and the two came just right.
"Why are you guys here? Didn't you prepare a dinner party at home? The merchant who was sitting on the side looked at his subordinate coming here and said unhappily. If you don't say one or two today, you will be good-looking.
"Old, sir, there are robbers in the house, and the silver room has been emptied, and many people have been injured." Those few people heard the unkind tone of their family master, and trembled You look at me, I look at you, and the last slightly older family member said.
"What? What you just said, you repeat. When the master of the house heard what this man said, he immediately couldn't stand at all, and roared angrily.
"Master, the silver room has been ransacked." When the man heard the roar of his own head of the house, he almost cried out in fright, so he could only say stubbornly.
"And what do you eat? Could it be that a few bandits still can't clean it up? I really don't know what the use of raising you is. The lord roared loudly, and his old face darkened with anger.
At this time, listening to everyone on the side, they probably knew what was going on, Tang Liwen came out and said, "Master Wei Xian, don't be angry, let me ask what's going on." Luckily? ”
When Wei Xian heard Tang Liwen's words, he slowly calmed down his anger, nodded slightly, and saluted: "Since this is the case, it will trouble Lord County Guard, I hope Lord County Guard will make the decision below." ”
