Ji Qingwen glanced at Li Yan and said: "Xu Hongru is an old and cunning guy, we are fighting so lively outside, this guy didn't react at all, I really don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd." ”

Li Yan said: "No matter whether he Xu Hongru sells good medicine, bad medicine, or poison that can take people's lives, I'm afraid it is not as powerful as the gunpowder in Brother Ji's hundreds of muskets." Brother Ji didn't give the order quickly, seeing that Liu Kongzhao was about to break through the city defense, he was afraid that at that time, Brother Ji might not be able to grab the first merit of capturing Xu Hongru alive. ”

Ji Qingwen didn't care whether it was the first or second merit, he just felt that the current situation was a bit weird and excessive.

But it was not a way to continue like this, so Ji Qingwen took the two muskets pinned to his waist in his hands, carefully checked them, and made sure that the chamber was indeed loaded with gunpowder and bullets, and could be fired at any time, so he mustered up his courage and asked the room: "Hey! Xu Hongru, are you in the house? Tell me a word? ”

There was no answer from Xu Hongru, only an empty echo.

Ji Qingwen had to shout again: "Hey, is there anyone alive in the house?" Come out and say something! ”

Only then did I hear a woman's voice say, "Ji ...... Is it Ji Gongzi? Come on in...... No...... Don't come in......"

This is strange again, why did you tell me to come in and tell me not to come in?

Ji Qingwen didn't understand it, but at least, he at least knew that Zhou Xiuying was still alive, so he asked again: "Miss Xiuying, what happened?" You have a maid who died outside the door, what the hell is going on? Also, this yamen courtyard inside and outside has been taken over by me, and the White Lotus Sect is all captured, so come out and surrender quickly! ”

But I heard Zhou Xiuying say: "No...... No way...... Not yet......"

Ji Qingwen thought about it, and suddenly felt that it was not Xu Hongru, who had been silent, who was in the way, that he was getting in the way, so he shouted loudly again: "Sect Master Xu, there are already soldiers and horses of the imperial court outside, and there is no way out for you to resist stubbornly." It's better to just raise your hands and surrender, and maybe you can die a happy death. ”

Xu Hongru did not answer.

I only heard Zhou Xiuying's sigh that was so heavy that it seemed to be able to collapse the ground: "Ji Gongzi, daddy, he can't speak......"

Can't speak? What does it mean to be unable to speak? Deaf? Dumb? Or is it a broken brain?

Ji Qingwen couldn't figure it out again.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and then Zhou Xiuying said: "Childe, I remember that you have a Qin Xiangzhen girl under you, right?" Can you invite her in? I have something to say to her. Just let her in alone. ”

Qin Xiangzhen lay in front of the window to listen to the situation in the house, and when she heard that Zhou Xiuying was looking for her, she was immediately stunned, and replied loudly: "Demon girl, if you have any skills, just show them in public, and don't play any conspiracy!" ”

Zhou Xiuying said in the house: "No...... General Qin, I don't mean anything else, and I won't harm you, you ...... Just come in and see...... Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, and my dad won't hurt you...... Don't be afraid of ......."

Qin Xiangzhen was still hesitating before, but the words "don't be afraid" played a role, making her think that Zhou Xiuying was deliberately showing weakness, but she was not convinced, and said: "Go and go, I want to see what ghosts are in your house." ”

Jinyiwei commanded Li Yuanyin and hurriedly reminded: "General Qin, please be careful. The White Lotus Sect is treacherous and unpredictable, and maybe it is stirring up the law again. Before, in Liyukou, General Qin almost fell in love with Zhou Xiuying, a demon girl, and this time he can't act indiscriminately anymore! ”

The capture of the carp mouth is a black spot in Qin Xiangzhen's experience.

Li Yuanyin didn't mention Shang Ke about this matter, and as soon as he mentioned it, he immediately hung up Qin Xiangzhen's temper and said, "What can you do indiscriminately?" Now the sky is full of our people, even if there are ghosts crawling out of the ground in Zhou Xiuying's house, they will be cleaned up. ”

Having said that, she couldn't help but feel a little empty in her heart, lifted the spear she was used to, and took out the sword she was wearing at her waist to check it, and didn't forget to tell Ji Qingwen: "Lord Ji, you can pay attention, in case I am restrained, don't be polite, just let the gun go." ”

Ji Qingwen looked serious, frowned, and said, "Miss Qin, don't worry, go in." Miss Xiuying's words still count, but she doesn't know what Xu Hongru is doing...... It's so weird today, so you better be careful. ”

Zhou Xiuying nodded, pushed open the hidden door with a nervous face, and after only a moment of entering, she retreated, the expression on her face was much more nervous than before.

Ji Qingwen couldn't understand why Qin Xiangzhen returned so long after entering, and hurriedly asked, "Miss Qin, what happened inside?" ”

Qin Xiangzhen looked dazed, his eyes were empty, as if he was immersed in a dream, and replied faintly: "Xu Hongru...... Xu Hongru is dead......"

"What! Xu Hongru is dead! Ji Qingwen exclaimed, "Are you sure?" This is no joke! ”

Qin Xiangzhen still hadn't woken up from the dream, and her voice seemed to come from the abyss: "It should be right, I've checked it, Xu Hongru has lost his breath!" ”

Ji Qingwen was stunned at first when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed, kicked open the door, and was the first to break into the house.

Qin Xiangzhen suddenly woke up from the "dream" and shouted, "Slow, Lord Ji, you can't enter this house!" With that, Qin Xiangzhen stood at the door and didn't let anyone follow Ji Qingwen inside.

But it was already late when she spoke, Ji Qingwen had already walked into the house, let her pupils adjust to the dim light in the room, and sure enough, she saw a shriveled old man sitting on the edge of the bed in the depths of the room - the person just looked at the back, and guessed that it was Xu Hongru.

And Xu Hongru, who was originally cunning and strong in martial arts, didn't seem to notice Ji Qingwen's arrival at all, and still sat on the edge of the bed motionless.

Ji Qingwen felt more and more strange, so he raised his voice and said loudly: "Sect Leader Xu, Ji Qingwen is here, and there are all my people outside the door, why don't you come and talk to me?" ”

Xu Hongru still didn't answer, but he heard Zhou Xiuying say out of nowhere: "Ji Gongzi, I just told Miss Qin, my father has already ...... Already...... It's already dead......"

Although Ji Qingwen had been mentally prepared, he was still very surprised when he heard this, and said confirmatively: "Miss Xiuying, where are you?" Why don't you show up and speak? I never lied to you. This kind of thing is no joke, if you fool me, my life will be gone......"

Zhou Xiuying sighed: "Ji Gongzi, of course I won't joke about this kind of thing." Childe has saved my life several times, how can I harm you, Childe? ”

In several contacts, Ji Qingwen also has some understanding of Zhou Xiuying's character, and knows that although this stunning woman is taking two very different paths from herself, her personality and character are excellent.

Therefore, Ji Qingwen carried his two German-made muskets, pointed at Xu Hongru's back, and slowly walked forward.

Zhou Xiuying said: "Master Ji, don't come here...... Don't come here......"

Ji Qingwen took advantage of the chaos and speculation to enter Wenzhou City, and the offensive was very smooth, seeing that he had put the White Lotus Sect leader Xu Hongru under his musket, but the news came that he was dead. Although it is a pity that Xu Hongru was not captured alive by himself or died under his hands, it is a pity that Ji Qingwen must make it clear whether he died or not.

Therefore, Ji Qingwen didn't listen to Zhou Xiuying's words, and still walked forward step by step, and when he walked behind Xu Hongru only a step away, Ji Qingwen finally mustered up his courage and used the barrel of the pistol in his hand to pluck Xu Hongru's shoulder.

Xu Hongru, who was originally sitting upright, was played by Ji Qingwen like this, Xu Hongru's body suddenly lost its balance, and the whole fell down, but it seemed to have no weight, like a feather and fell to the ground.

Xu Hongru is really dead-

Is it?
