Volume 1 Northwest Storm Chapter 9 See the Ghost Face Man Again
Late at night, Jiang Lan lay alone in the cage, and the rope on his body had already been untied. After a lot of tossing and turning during the day, he was also a little sleepy. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard two muffled grunts from outside the cage.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that the two guards had been cut to the ground, and there were three men in black standing beside them.
"Old Xiang, what are you ...... Wrong! You are not ......" Jiang Lan thought it was Xiang Beichuan and the three of them at first, but then he saw that these three people were wearing demon masks on their heads!
Before Jiang Lan could finish speaking, one of the ghost-faced men picked up a short crossbow from his waist and aimed it at Jiang Lan is an arrow. Jiang Lan hurriedly got up, but he couldn't avoid it, he casually picked up the night pot beside him, which was able to block the arrow.
"If you want to kill the master, you must taste the master's rain first!" As he spoke, he threw the night pot in his hand at the other party, and although the three of them avoided the night pot, they were also drenched in the filth in it.
The three of them were furious, and the other two also took out their short crossbows and shot at Jiang Lan. Jiang Lan dodged an arrow, but the other arrow was dodged and shot directly through his left shoulder.
"Someone! Killed! Who will save the master! Taking advantage of the three people's efforts to load the crossbow arrows, Jiang Lan hurriedly shouted for help. In the current situation, it is only a matter of time before he is shot, but if he can attract the guards of the villa, he can save his life.
Seeing this, the three ghost-faced men were very anxious, they loaded their crossbow bolts and raised their hands to shoot at Jiang Lan, but this time they didn't even touch each other's shadows.
Jiang Lan shouted for help while dodging left and right. After dodging three rounds of crossbow arrows, a patrol of guards finally arrived.
"Withdraw!"
Seeing this, the leading ghost-faced man did not hesitate to order a retreat, then drew his knife from his waist and rushed towards the guards who heard the news.
At the door of the dungeon, shouts of killing rang out.
……
In the main hall of Yanlai Villa, Yu Fengqiu is sitting on the main seat. He furrowed his brow, and there were three corpses of Ghostface on the ground in front of him.
"Boss Yu, I don't know why it's so late, why did you ask me to wait?" Liu Chengshun on the side asked.
Just now, the three of them also heard the sound of shouting and killing. Xiang Beichuan was worried that something was wrong with Jiang Lan and insisted on going to see it, but he was held down by Liu Chengshun. While they were arguing with each other, the shouting suddenly stopped. Then a servant came and brought the three of them to the main hall.
As soon as they entered the main hall, the three of them saw the corpses on the ground, Liu Chengshun and Erhu were fine, but their faces flashed with surprise. Xiang Beichuan clasped his hands tightly, and his face was full of hatred. Fortunately, he was wearing a hat and did not attract the attention of others.
Hearing Liu Chengshun's question, Yu Fengqiu just shook his head. The second lady Han Xi, who was standing behind him, took a step forward and replied: "Three strong men, just now these three men in black sneaked into the dungeon at night and wanted to assassinate Jiang Lan. Fortunately, the guards of the villa arrived in time, which saved Jiang Lan's life. ”
Hearing that Jiang Lan was fine, Liu Chengshun and the three of them also let go of their hanging hearts.
Liu Chengshun sighed: "These three thieves actually made a mistake here, it is really bold!" ”
"It doesn't matter how bold these three people are, what matters is the time when they came - during the day, the three strong men had just sent Jiang Lan into the villa, and someone came to assassinate him at night. This shows two points, one is that this group of people is hiding near the mountain villa, and it is very likely that they are in Hanzhong City! Second, there is likely to be their eyeliner in the villa! ”
After Han Xi finished speaking, he saw Liu Chengshun's brows furrowed: "The second lady is suspicious of my three brothers?" ”
"Brother Xiaoshun, don't get me wrong, Madame, she has no such intention." Yu Fengqiu's gloomy face forced a little smile, and he stood up and explained. "After all, Jiang Lan was brought by the three of them, and the three of them came here to discuss one or two with the three of them."
"In that case, why didn't Boss Yu call that Jiang Lan over and ask why these people wanted to kill him, and then make plans." Liu Chengshun said.
Before, at the dinner, Yu Fengqiu told them about his son. They were still thinking about how to talk to him. And isn't this an opportunity right now? That group of ghost-faced people not only arrested his son, but also broke into his Yanlai Mountain Villa at night, and now if the matter is clarified, wouldn't it be a little more certain!
"Hmm......" Yu Fengqiu nodded, "Someone!" Bring Jiang Lan here! ”
"Yes."
The two guards at the door got the order, and after a while, they brought Jiang Lan into the main hall. At this time, Jiang Lan was naked, his shoulders were bandaged, and his hands were tied in front of him.
"Yo, there are so many people on the big night! How? are all waiting for the master...... Belch...... Xiaosheng is polite......"
As soon as Jiang Lan entered the main hall, he saw everyone looking at him in unison. He just wanted to sneer a few words, but saw that Han Xi was also in the hall, so he immediately changed his words, and the words he said became nondescript.
Yu Fengqiu ignored Jiang Lan's words, and asked, "Jiang Lan, the old man asked you, how did you offend this group of ghost-faced people?" ”
"How to offend? Why, didn't the second lady tell you...... Oh...... Xiaosheng understood......" Jiang Lan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Han Xi with an intriguing expression.
In the evening, he had already told Hanxi the reason, didn't this old man ask knowingly at this time? Unless, after Han Xi went back, he didn't tell the old man about the things in the dungeon. With that said, she went to the dungeon...... Eight achievements are to take a fancy to the master!
"The old man asked you!" Yu Fengqiu slapped the table and shouted. He obviously didn't know about Han Xi going to the dungeon, but Jiang Lan stared at his wife directly, but he saw it in his eyes.
"Why are you yelling so loudly? I'll just tell you again. Jiang Lan was taken aback, he complained, and then told the story he had made up to Hanxi.
"In this way, the blind man Xu is likely to be the mastermind behind the scenes? He took my son just to kill you? Yu Fengqiu squinted his eyes and muttered. Because Jiang Lan deliberately concealed the conversation of the ghost-faced man, he naturally designated the mastermind behind the scenes as Xu Blind. In his opinion, all this makes sense, after all, Xu Blind is famous for his many eyeliner, so it doesn't seem to be a problem for him to install a few eyeliner in his village.
Listening to Yu Fengqiu's analysis, Jiang Lan felt funny in his heart. But that blind man Xu was the cause of all this, so there was nothing wrong with Yu Fengqiu thinking like this.
"Old man, you now know the cause and effect of all this. Should you let me go? lest anyone come and assassinate me! ”
"Released you?" Yu Fengqiu shook his head, although he knew that the blind man Xu was the mastermind behind the scenes, but he still had his son's life in his hands, so it was impossible for him to let Jiang Lan go.
"Now that we know that the mastermind behind the scenes is Xu Blind, then the old man can take people to the Water Snake Ridge. Then, exchange your life for my son, thinking that even if the blind man Xu eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, he won't dare not sell the face of the old man! Yu Fengqiu said lightly, and then asked someone to escort Jiang Lan down.
"Old man, I really don't know how you did this. Just because you're old? Or is it because you don't take a bath? How can your idea be so simple...... Not to mention that the blind man Xu is not in Water Snake Ridge at the moment. He's there, and what are you going to talk to him about? If you think about it, he wanted to kill me to kill me. And now, don't you know all about what he does? Is my life or death so important to him? ”
"This ......" Yu Fengqiu was dumbfounded by Jiang Lan's question. Because he was anxious for a while, he ignored the crux of the problem, "Then you say, what should the old man do?" ”
"You untie me first! Get me another clean piece of clothing. ”
Jiang Lan spoke, and glanced at Han Xi at the same time, only to see that although the latter looked at him, he still looked cold.
"Xi'er, you go back to the room and get an old man's clothes for him to wear." Yu Fengqiu gave an order to Han Xi, and then he personally stepped forward to untie Jiang Lan.
"Hey, that's right!"
Jiang Lan watched Han Xi go out, and then returned to his previous wild and uninhibited state, he rubbed his wrists, and at the same time found a seat and sat down.
"Shaoxia, the clothes will be delivered to you in a moment...... Can you tell the old man what you can do now? Yu Fengqiu asked with a smile on his face. At this moment, he seems to be an amiable uncle next door.
"Old man Yu, you don't have to do this to the master...... It's disgusting for you to laugh too...... Well, for the sake of saving your son, the master will tell you about it! ”
Jiang Lan couldn't stand Yu Fengqiu's smirk, he got up and came to Yu Fengqiu's side, and whispered to him about his plan.
Yu Fengqiu listened carefully, but the smile on his face slowly solidified. After a while, after Jiang Lan got up after speaking, Yu Fengqiu was already full of doubts.
"That sounds like that, but ......"
"You can rest assured! Master dare to ensure that you are safe! Jiang Lan said confidently, but then suddenly remembered something, "That's right! Hanxi has been gone for a long time, why hasn't she come back yet? ”
Yu Fengqiu also began to feel a little strange when he heard this, his room was not far away, and if he took a piece of clothing, he would have come back a long time ago. At this time, it was time for a meal to pass before Han Xi left.
Yu Fengqiu was suspicious, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside the door. A few people in the house looked up, only to see a large number of black-clothed people wearing demon masks outside. And the one who led this group of ghost-faced people was the housekeeper and the second lady of the villa, Hanxi!
"You two!" Yu Fengqiu looked at the two outside the door with a shocked expression. He never imagined that his housekeeper and the people who shared the bed with him every day would betray him!
Han Xi still had a cold face when he saw this, but the housekeeper laughed: "Hehe, master, are you very surprised and surprised now?" We weren't going to kill you so soon, but you wanted to ask you what you shouldn't know...... Your son is in our hands now, if you know each other, let yourself be cut off! ”
"Come on, take down this group of thieves!" Yu Fengqiu was shocked and angry when he heard this, he shouted outside the door, but what he got was a burst of laughter.
"Yu Fengqiu, I'm afraid you haven't seen the situation clearly! To tell you the truth, although I have only been here for four years, most of the people in this villa have been replaced by our people. And those who are loyal to you have been eliminated by us! ”
"Okay...... You're doing a good job...... Hahaha...... "I don't know if it's anger or despair, Yu Fengqiu suddenly burst out laughing. He no longer stared at the two outside the door, but turned to look at a painting hanging in the middle of the hall. In that painting, a woman is holding a baby in her arms.
"In vain, I call myself a hero in Fengqiu, but I can't even protect my own son...... All his men are thieves...... Heroes are here, why be heroes ......" Yu Fengqiu muttered, but suddenly pulled out two Jinyan short knives from his back waist.
"Old man, don't ...... you"
Jiang Lan, who was standing close, wanted to stop it, but it was too late. I saw that Yu Fengqiu took out two knives and stabbed them into his chest, and then two red flowers bloomed on his clothes. Jiang Lan hurriedly supported Yu Fengqiu and slowly put him down.
"Young Hero...... This painting ...... My son...... Save him. Yu Fengqiu pointed to the painting on the wall, said intermittently, and then died of anger.
The chief scoop of the Northwest Green Forest Road, a generation of heroes, has fallen.
