"Open the door! We're searching for fugitives! ”

"It's coming, it's coming, knock what? It's going to be on right away. ”

Calmly agreed to remove the latch of the door, as soon as the door opened, more than a dozen men with swords, shields and torches rushed in, led by Feng Zhong wearing rhinoceros leather armor, holding a two-foot version representing the performance of official duties, and shouted majestically: "I am Feng Zhong, the head of the Great Qin Shiling Pavilion, everyone is not allowed to move!" The chief of this pavilion suspects that there are fugitives here and wants to search! ”

"Pavilion Chief Feng, are you mistaken?" Xiang Kang hurriedly asked in surprise: "In addition to our brothers from the Xiang family, there are only our two uncles and aunts in this courtyard, what kind of fugitives are there?" ”

"Less nonsense! Get out of the way! Feng Zhong pushed away Xiang Kang, who he knew, and shouted: "Everyone in the room comes out, and the pavilion chief has to check their identities one by one!" ”

"My third uncle and mother are sick and can't move! My brother and they are also taking care of her. Xiang Kang hurriedly said, "If you don't believe it, I can take you in to see it." But don't scare my uncle, she's a little sick. ”

Saying that, Xiang Kang didn't care whether Feng Zhong agreed or not, turned his head and walked back to the room quickly, Feng Zhong and the people he brought were afraid that Xiang Kang would play any tricks, so they hurriedly rushed into the room with Xiang Kang, leaving only a few people to monitor outside the door. After Xiang Kang successfully drew the attention of Feng Zhong and the others into the room, he immediately pointed to his brother and said, "Pavilion Chief Feng, you can see for yourself, they are all our Xiang family brothers, and there are no fugitives as you said." ”

By the light of the torches, he carefully identified the Xiang brothers in the room, and found that there were no outsiders, Feng Zhonggang wanted to look at the other locations in the room, Xiang Kang observed his words and quickly said, "Pavilion Chief Feng, can you see clearly?" It's all our Xiang brothers, shouldn't you go? ”

Feng Zhong sneered, and subconsciously looked at the door leading to the back room, while Xiang Kang hurriedly stepped forward and opened his hand to block the back door, and said, "Pavilion Chief Feng, inside are my two uncles, my third uncle and aunt are still sick and lying inside, you can't search it!" ”

"Less nonsense! Get out of the way! Go in and search! ”

Feng Zhong scolded, and waved his hand to let the pavilion pawn step forward, Xiang Kang didn't give an inch, and shouted at his brother: "Brother, you can't let them go in to search, the third uncle and mother are so sick that they will be scared!" ”

Although he didn't understand Xiang Kang's intentions very well, Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Guan, Xiang It and other more alert Xiang family children still hurried over to help and helped Xiang Kang stop the guards who tried to enter the back room to search the pavilion. As a result, a middle-aged man in armor and a crown stood up beside Feng Zhong, and said very majestically: "Wait a minute, this official is a wanderer from Dongxiang, and he came here to search for fugitives according to the law. If you are smart, let me get out of the way at once, let our people go in and have a look, if there are really no fugitives inside, of course our people will not scare your uncle, but if you continue to get in the way of this officer's errand, this official has the right to take you all down now! ”

"Wu Youxi, there are really only my two uncles and aunts in it." Xiang Kang defended: "Our brothers in the Xiang family are all honest and responsible people, how can there be fugitives in the family?" ”

"Honesty?" Feng Zhong laughed when he heard this, and said, "But how do I remember that your two uncles, Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo, are both wanted criminals?" Or a wanted murderer at large? ”

"That's our uncle's business? What does it have to do with us? Xiang Kang retorted: "What is the rule in the Great Qin Law that if someone in the relatives is wanted, the government has the right to search casually?" ”

"We received a report that your uncle Xiang came back quietly and was with a man who was acting suspiciously, so we came to search." Wu Youyi casually explained the reason, and then pointed to the two-foot version in Feng Zhong's hand and said, "Do you see it?" Feng Tingchang held a two-foot plate in his hand, which meant that he was acting in accordance with the law, and according to the laws of Great Qin, as long as he held a two-foot plate, he had the right to search every household under his rule. ”

Xiang Kang deliberately looked at the two-foot version in Feng Zhong's hand, and then hesitated and said, "Okay, you can go in and search, but I have to talk to my uncle and aunt first, and you have to be careful, don't scare them." ”

After that, Xiang Kang really turned around and said a call to the back room, asking the two uncles to prepare for the search, and then waited for the two uncles to agree, Xiang Kang pulled Xiang Zhuang and the others out of the way, and let the pavilion guards brought by Feng Zhong and Wu Youyi go in to search, and stood by the door and kept urging: "How is it?" Did you see it clearly? If you see it clearly, come out quickly, my uncle and mother are all women, and it is inconvenient for you to be inside. ”

Because of Xiang Kang's deliberate artificiality, Feng Zhong and Na Wu Youyi and the others naturally focused their attention in the back room, completely forgetting to pay attention to the overhead beam, Xiang Bo and Han Liang who were hiding on the beam of the house were so nervous that their palms were dangerous, not only worried to the extreme, but also admired Xiang Kang, who was not shocked, to the extreme, Han Liang also quietly glanced at Xiang Kang, and said in his heart: "This kid, it's amazing, I can't catch up with such calm kung fu!" ”

The result of the search was of course nothing, after the pavilion reported that there were only two women in the back room, Feng Zhong and Wu Youyi, who once thought that they were sure to win, of course did not believe their ears at all, and they did not give up and went to the back room door to look inside, and then looked at each other suspiciously. Xiang Kang observed his words, and expected that they would definitely conduct a further careful search in the future, so he hurriedly raised his voice deliberately, and suddenly said loudly: "Xiang Sui, go in and see if the third uncle is in the situation and see if she is scared." ”

Xiang Sui inexplicably agreed, and Feng Zhong and Wu Youyi, who were attracted by Xiang Kang's sudden loud speech, also subconsciously turned their heads to look at Xiang Kang, but at this time, there was a sudden shout outside the door, "There is someone in the backyard!" Hold it! Don't run! ”

"Someone has climbed over the wall! Catch it! ”

Hearing this, Wu Youbi and Feng Zhong didn't think about it, of course, they immediately rushed out of the door to check the situation, and sure enough, they immediately saw two black shadows coming out of the wall and escaping to the dark distance outside the courtyard. Feng Zhong and Wu You were overjoyed, and hurriedly called out all the pavilion guards in the room, and took the pavilion guards out of the hospital to chase the two black shadows, and shouted at Xiang Kang and the others before leaving: "Wait here, don't run around!" ”

Seeing Wu Youyi and Feng Zhong and others deceived by Xiang Kang's design on the beam, Xiang Bo and Han Liang were of course ecstatic in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to get off the beam, but Xiang Kang raised his head and waved his hand, first signaling Xiang Bo and Han Liang to be restless, and then whispered a few words in Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng's ears, Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng understood, and when the sound was far away, they immediately rushed out of the courtyard door together, and fled in another direction. Then, as Xiang Kang expected, there was a commotion outside the courtyard again, and the pavilion guards who were ambushed outside the courtyard shouted and chased after Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng. Xiang Kang breathed a sigh of relief, and then returned to the room, and whispered to Xiang Bo and Han Liang to come down quickly.

Xiang Bo and Han Liang, who were increasingly ecstatic in their hearts, jumped off the beam of the house one after another, and gave Xiang Kang a thumbs up without speaking, while Xiang Kang hurriedly asked: "Uncle, Uncle Han, I'm sorry, you have to leave immediately, the person who captured you may come back at any time." ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'm familiar with the terrain here, and I'll be safe when I leave the village."

Xiang Bo agreed in a low voice, and said that he was living in Xiapi, and asked Xiang Kang and others to come over to visit him when they were free, Xiang Kang agreed, and arranged for two more Xiang family disciples to cross the wall from the other direction to attract the ambush soldiers who might still exist, and then let Xiang Bo and Han Liang go out from the courtyard gate and flee to other directions where there was no voice. As a result, it was also after Xiang Bo and Han Liang successfully disappeared into the darkness that Xiang Kang let out a long sigh of relief and wiped his forehead again, only to find that his forehead and palms were actually covered with cold sweat.

Of course, the matter is not over, after a period of time, Xiang Guan and Xiang Han, who are responsible for diverting the tiger from the mountain, and Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng, who are responsible for leading away the ambush, have all been escorted back to the courtyard of Xiang Bo's house. However, Xiang Kang no longer had any scruples, and when he saw Feng Zhong and Wu Youxi, he asked loudly, "Why did you arrest my brother?" What law did they break? ”

Having already checked their identities and knowing that Xiang Guan and the others were not fugitives, Feng Zhonghe's wandering momentum was certainly not as high as before, so he could only ask rhetorically: "Why do you want to arrest them?" In the middle of the night, what do they run? ”

"Is it a sin to go out in the middle of the night? In the Great Qin Code, which law prohibits you from going out in the middle of the night? Xiang Kang asked rhetorically and said, "My brother, are they going to chop peach wood and thorns to fight ghosts and treat the third uncle and mother, which is also illegal?" ”

The folk custom of the Qin period was that illness was a ghost, and it was necessary to use a peach wood bow and an oyster arrow to fight ghosts and cure diseases. And Xiang Guan, Xiang Zhuang and others, who had already been instructed by Xiang Kang, also shouted loudly, insisting that they were going out late at night to harvest ghost exorcisms, Feng Zhong and You You had nothing to say, so they could only order the pavilion guards to search everywhere, which made the village where the Xiang family lived so noisy that the neighbors were uneasy.

It's a pity, because Xiang Bo and Han Liang have already fled far away, Feng Zhong and the others' search of course found nothing, and finally tossed until the second half of the night, because they really couldn't catch anyone and couldn't get evidence, Feng Zhong and the others had to obediently stop and release the people, release the Xiang brothers who were mistakenly arrested because of the 'harvesting of ghost exorcism', and left with cruel words, "You wait for me, don't bump into our hands next time!" ”

When Feng Zhong and the others left the Xiang family in a gloomy manner, Xiang Bo and Han Liang, who had already fled far away, finally stopped to rest in a secluded place, and after gasping for breath for a long time, Han Liang's first sentence was like this, "Uncle, your nephew Xiang Kang will definitely not be a mortal in the future!" ”

"That little vertical is indeed a little clever." Xiang Bo also praised: "In such a short period of time, we can come up with such a way to help us get out, and we can think about it so thoroughly, and our little head is enough." ”

"Just clever?" Han Liang laughed directly and said: "I, Zhang Liang, have traveled all over the world, traveled south and north for so many years, and I have never seen a young hero like Ling Nephew. Uncle, I think that among your sons and nephews, his future will be the most limitless! ”

After saying it out loud, Zhang Liang added another sentence in his heart, and said: "And he is scheming, the city government is outstanding, Brother Xiang, your virtuous nephew, if you have the opportunity in the future, it will definitely not be just a thing in the pool!" ”
