Although Xu Daoqing was fierce and decisive, his experience and city government were not enough after all, seeing that he was surrounded on three sides and facing the water on one side, he couldn't help but panic, barely held his mind, and said to Xu Hongru beside him: "Sect Master, it seems that this little thief surnamed Ji is prepared. But fortunately, we haven't died yet, so it's better to kill Ji Qingwen and his wife, jump into the river and escape. Master, water overcomes fire, we jump into the water, and the musket may not be able to do anything to us! ”

Or Xu Hongru was a little older and said, "Daoqing, what are you panicking about? Ji Qingwen is now in our hands, how can they easily do it to us? ”

Saying that, Xu Hongru used the sharp blade in his hand to escort Ji Qingwen to retreat to the river, and in the face of the opponents who were gradually approaching, he raised his voice and said, "Everyone, don't be impatient, Lord Ji is in the hands of the old man right now." The old man was injured, and his hands were not serious, so don't accidentally hurt Lord Ji's life! ”

At this moment, Li Yan had already stepped closer, shook the folding fan and said, "This is the Xu Sect Leader of the White Lotus Sect, right?" The student and you met at the Fucheng Post Station that day, I don't know if you still recognize the student and me? ”

Li Yan deliberately talked nonsense with Xu Hongru, wanting to divert his attention and find his flaws, so as to rescue Ji Qingwen and Liu Rushi.

Unexpectedly, Xu Hongru was extremely experienced in the rivers and lakes, and his attention was not diverted by Li Yan at all, and said: "This gentleman, I still have big things to do now, and it's not time to catch up with the past." ”

Li Yan saw that his plan to hide from the world and the sea was unsuccessful, and as soon as he changed his words, he smiled and said, "Sect Master Xu, I don't think there is anything important to do between us!" You might as well look up and see, up and down, inside and out, left, left and right, all of them are our people. Sect Leader Xu is a person who knows the general situation and knows the stakes, so he didn't hurry up and let go of Brother Ji and his wife. Brother Ji is not small, and he will definitely not embarrass Sect Master Xu when the time comes. ”

Xu Hongru peeked around, and sure enough, he saw that he and Xu Daoqing were surrounded by a team of more than 200 people, and their 200 muskets with black holes were aimed at him, not to mention that he was injured now, even when he was in the heyday of the Spring and Autumn Period, he might not be able to get out of such a rain of bullets.

It turned out that Li Yan and Li Yuanyin, who were stationed in the back building of the "Qunyu Courtyard", had already guessed that a major emergency must have occurred when they heard the first gunshot upstairs.

Although Li Yan is a scholar, he is not a chronic child, and he will immediately mobilize all 200 people to pick up Ji Qingwen and Liu Rushi upstairs.

But the Jinyi guard next to him, the commander Li Yuanyin, was extremely meticulous and cautious, stopping Li Yan's actions, but he recruited two Jinyi guards and asked them to go to the "Jade Courtyard" to inquire about the situation first, and then make further actions.

But before the two brocade guards could return, another gunshot rang out in the building.

At this time, even Li Yuanyin couldn't hold his breath, and immediately asked to bring a hundred soldiers to the building to pick up Ji Qingwen - although he is a brocade guard, his fate has been firmly linked to Ji Qingwen, and he must not sit back and watch Ji Qingwen have three long and two short.

At this time, Li Yan had already calmed down, realizing that if something really dangerous happened, more than a hundred people would rush up, which would only be counterproductive.

Therefore, in a short period of time, he had already made a deployment: he led a group of seventy people to go around the road from the left side of the "Jade Courtyard" to block a direction; Li Yuanyin led seventy men to block the other direction from the right side; The other 60 nimble brothers were sent to climb in through the windows of the back building of the "Jade Temple" to surprise him.

Although Li Yan's deployment was delayed for some time, Xu Daoqing held Ji Qingwen hostage and was also delayed by Xu Qi in the "Jade Courtyard", but the two cooperated and collided outside the house. In addition, Li Yan and Li Yuanyin's deployment was very thorough after all, although it did not achieve the effect of "divine soldiers descending from heaven", but they still blocked Ji Qingwen and Xu Hongru in front of the "Jade Courtyard".

Therefore, Li Yan saw that he had firmly gained the upper hand, so although the situation was critical, he was not much nervous, and slowly said to Xu Hongru: "Sect Master Xu, you are also a hero, why do you want to die here?" The student has a suggestion, why don't you let my brother Ji go, and I will order you to leave on your own. How about everyone scattering in two and not hurting the harmony? ”

That Xu Hongru is a twenty-year-old martial arts master, has walked the rivers and lakes for nearly fifty years, and has experienced many deceits, how many desperate and dangerous places, and how many conspiracies and tricks he has seen, so he listened to Li Yan's reasonable words, but he only regarded the scholar on the other side as having other plans.

So he groaned for a moment and said, "No." If you are sincere, please dismiss all the sergeants first, and when the old man is in a safe place, he will do a big thing with Lord Ji, and he will naturally let Lord Ji come back. ”

That's nonsense.

It's like bargaining in the vegetable market, a bundle of greens, the vegetable farmer sells it for ten yuan, but the buyer wants to take it for nothing without a penny; The vegetable farmer counteroffered nine yuan, but the buyer still did not let go, and still wanted to take it for nothing.

This is not a bargain to buy something, but a robbery!

Although Li Yan is a Sven person, it can be seen that Xu Hongru's attitude is a little angry, but Ji Qingwen is now restrained by Xu Hongru, and he can't lose his temper, so he can only try to calm down, and continue: "Why is Sect Leader Xu like this? Forcing us to a dead end, what good can you do to Sect Master Xu? Rabbits are in a hurry to bite! ”

Xu Hongru was fearless, and said with a cruel smile: "Okay, are you threatening the old decay?" Old decay is not scared. This gentleman now refers to Daihime-sama

waved a large army, with soldiers and guns in his hands, he gave the order to shoot. An old man who is about to die, he doesn't mind dying with Lord Ji! ”

Xu Hongru's words forced Li Yan to death - the bullet has no eyes, it is naturally impossible for him to order his soldiers to shoot at Xu Hongru, if he hits Ji Qingwen, it will be more than worth the loss.

Therefore, Li Yan could only continue to be patient, reluctantly thought of an idea, and said: "Sect Master Xu has great ambitions, he is a person who wants to make contributions, but now he wants to die with Brother Ji, such a sesame mung bean-sized amount of energy, I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed, right?" ”

With such a superficial and straightforward agitation method, how could Xu Hongru be fooled?

I only heard him sneer and said, "This gentleman must be his good friend to rescue Lord Ji with such dedication, right?" It's very rare for a friend to do your part. But the old man still said this, please retreat first, after the old man and Lord Ji have done the matter, they will naturally return Lord Ji to you as it is. ”

Xu Hongru and Li Yanzheng were putting their mouths back and forth, but they were in a hurry to break Ji Qingwen, who was held hostage.

He only felt that the dagger against his waist was getting colder and sharper, and he couldn't help but speak: "I say, can you respect the opinion of the person concerned?" Can't everyone take a step back? ”

This suggestion is reasonable, but how to "retreat" is a university question.

Just as everyone was pondering, they heard the noisy footsteps and shouts nearby, but after a while, they saw a team of more than 2,000 people running up from the end of the street, and the officer leading the team shouted and put the team in order, and then stepped forward and scolded: "Who is picking quarrels and provoking trouble here?" Don't you want to be honest with me? ”

The people present, Ji Qingwen and Xu Hongru, none of them were afraid of this strong and middle-class officer, and when they heard his angry reprimand, it was like listening to a loud fart, although they were not indifferent, but no one took him to heart.

The officer had no choice but to give the order to act, so he had to retreat again, and conscientiously restrain the soldiers under his command from acting rashly.

At the same time, more and more soldiers and horses have also quickly approached each other, and finally blocked the two ends of the avenue in front of the "Jade Courtyard" next to the Qinhuai River.

Up to now, whether it is Ji Qingwen, Li Yan, Xu Hongru, or Xu Daoqing, they all regret a little, regretting that they did not quickly reach an opinion acceptable to both sides just now.

And now, the defenders of Nanjing have heard the news, and the army has gradually gathered, making the already quite difficult thing more and more complicated......

The situation is beginning to slide in a direction that everyone can't predict and can't control.
