Chapter 53: Stalking

Ximen Qing frowned, the matter has not been done yet, how can the two of them know?

"Where did the two gentlemen come from? Don't you want to get rid of the thief with me? Ximen Qing asked with a smile. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Fu Ping said: "The two of us are people who can't resist and can't lift our hands, and we will accompany you to the bandit's den for a while, for fear that we will give our lives and make the world laugh." ā€

Han De glanced at Fu Ping, who was still laughing, and said a little anxiously: "Are you serious about Brother Qing'er?" Those are all thieves who kill people without blinking, don't ruin your life for the sake of a moment of righteous impulse, and think twice. ā€

Ximen Qing bowed his hand, invited the two gentlemen to sit down first, and said: "Don't worry, the two gentlemen, it's just three or two thieves, what's not worth it?" Wait here, you two, and I'll come as soon as I go. ā€

"Does Da Lang want to learn from Guan Yun Chang to warm wine and kill Huaxiong?" Fu Ping said with a smile.

"Don't dare, who am I? How dare you compare Master Guan, they are just a few thieves, and they are not worth anything. With that, Ximenqing got up and wanted to leave.

"Slow down." Fu Ping stopped him and said.

"What else does the gentleman have to say?"

"I know that Da Lang is brave and martial, aspiring to be a marquis in the frontier, and the thieves are not in his eyes, but Sun Tzu once said: The husband is the victor without a fight and the temple is considered a lot, and the temple is not victorious without a fight, and it is a few. More wins, less wins, and nothing counts? Although you are not a battle formation, but there are also people whose lives are at stake, you are so in such a hurry, although you have the courage of ten thousand people, but it is difficult to perform, but the thief does not open the gate of the village, only the bow and arrow shoot you, measure the three or five of you, how to kill the thief? If you steal the gate of the village and enter the village, the sword has no eyes, how can you ensure the safety of the hostages? ā€

Ximen Qing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Don't worry, sir, the strategy is already in my womb." ā€

Fu Ping raised his head and smiled, "Da Lang, you are now preparing swords, calling the heroes and dead soldiers, and asking the Su family to prepare the goods, it is nothing more than trying to deceive the opening of the village gate, enter it, take advantage of its unpreparedness, first behead the thief to intimidate everyone, the thief head is removed, the rest is not enough, although the plan is good, but I don't know that my life is in the slightest." ā€

Ximenqing was shocked in his heart, and didn't want him to guess his plan clearly, but after all, he was scheming, neither admitting nor denying it, and only said: "Why did Mr. say this." ā€

Fu Ping knew that Ximenqing was scheming, and continued: "Since the thief dared to rob the hostages, and sent someone to the county to deliver a letter, and asked the Su family to ransom people, in my opinion, this thief must know the situation in the county, and the most bad thing is that he also has an eyeliner here to inquire about the news, staring at the situation of the Su family, Dalang, you are so reckless, I am afraid that someone will go back to report the news a long time ago, will it not be fate?" ā€

Luan Tingyu is superb in martial arts, but he is not a reckless person, judging from the fact that he used tricks to tie up many heroes on Liangshan in the Water Margin, this person is also quite strategic, "What the two gentlemen of Dalang said is reasonable, although you and I are not afraid, but we must also take care of the safety of the hostage, after all, it has your reputation at stake." Luan Tingyu's words are to show that with me here, my life is worry-free, but my reputation is damaged.

Ximen Qing saw that everyone persuaded each other, his brows furrowed, in order not to let everyone see his face clearly, turned around, turned his back on everyone, and thought carefully in his heart: "Fu Ping is right, it is I myself who underestimated the ancients, I thought that I learned from Luda's plan to seize Erlong Mountain, and a knife resulted in the life of the forest tiger, so I sat back and relaxed, but now I don't know what to do, if I retreat at this time, I am afraid that it will not be possible, I have already boasted of Haikou, so that people know, then the name of the painstaking management in the past will be worthless." ā€

Pacing forward a few steps, his face was gloomy, and he was about to turn around and ask Fu Ping if he had any advice, but when he heard someone making noise outside the door, he was irritable, and pushed the door out: "Who is making noise in front of the door?" ā€

Brother Yun took a step forward and said, "Brother don't worry, I caught a spy." ā€

Ximenqing's heart moved, and he said, "Bring him in." ā€

A few servants in the family tied up a lewd-looking man and threw it in the hall.

Ximen Qing asked, "Who are you?" ā€

The man shouted: "This official, I am just a passing merchant, where is the spy, but I saw the grandeur of your mansion, and after a few more glances, I was arrested by this little brother." ā€

Brother Yun kicked him and said: "Nonsense, I have been watching you for a long time, you are outside my brother's door, and you have been watching for half an hour, and you said that you are a merchant on the road, so where are your goods?" Why is there a hidden blade in the waist? Say, are you the old man of Shen Zhong, who is here to assassinate my brother. ā€

The man was forced to ask by Brother Yun, and he complained again and again, only saying in his heart where did he know Shen Zhong, I am a thief and a strong man, but under the eaves, I can only make up nonsense, saying that I am really a road merchant, but I just lost my money and goods, and I just want to find a job for a while.

Ximen Qing saw that this man's words were unknown, his expression was panicked, his eyes did not look at him, but looked around, and there was a blade hidden on his body, and said secretly: "It's really called Fu Ping's words, Su asked me to help, I don't want to be targeted even though I am careful." ā€

Turning his head, he asked Fu Ping, "Sir, what do you have to teach me?" ā€

Fu Ping squinted at him and said, "Since Da Lang has seen something, why do you still want to ask me." ā€

Han De stroked his beard and asked, "I still have to ask, if you have wronged a good person, then it is not worth it." ā€

Luan Tingyu was still a little confused, but he just caught a thief, and after thinking about it, hey, isn't this guy the eyeliner sent by the thief, staring at this?

Ximenqing walked up to the man and grinned, and the smiling man was covered in hair. only trembled and said: "The official spares his life, I am really a businessman, you have set up a private court like this, you want the government to know, I am afraid that I will suffer a lawsuit." ā€

"Do you know who I am?" Ximenqing asked suddenly.

"I don't know!"

"Phew, the ignorant dog kills, this is my brother Ximenqing." Juan continued to kick him.

"The hero is Ximenqing? I have heard of it, I have heard of it, a famous hero in Yanggu, Ximen Qing, and a big official in Ximen Qing. ā€

Ximenqing nodded and said: "It's good that you know, man, let me ask you again, what do you do, if you are really a merchant, I will go to the government to ask for guilt, and then give you a hundred taels of silver to apologize, but if you are not a merchant and deceive me, then you have to try my methods." ā€

The man said: "How dare you deceive the big officials, I am really a traveling merchant." ā€

"Man, where are you from?"

"The villain's family lives in Jiujiang Mansion."

"What kind of business do you come here?"

"Go to the Daimyo's Mansion and sell some silk."

"I see, you are used to walking the rivers and lakes, let me ask you, how many days will it take from Jiujiang to my Yang Valley, and where will you pass from, who is the prefect of Jiujiang Mansion, there is a Xunyang Tower in Jiujiang Mansion, do you know?"

Where does this man know so much, he is a person from Dongping Mansion, Jiujiang is just talking nonsense, and now he is asked by Ximen Qing again and again, and he can't speak, and he sees Ximen Qing with cold eyebrows, panic in his heart, and sweat like rain.

"What? Don't you know it's so simple? Ximenqing sneered.

"Villain...... The villain ......" The man's eyes rolled wildly, and he was thinking about how to answer.

Suddenly, Ximen Qingyi dragged him up from the ground and asked in a loud voice: "Say, what does Lin Hu want you to do?" How many of you came? ā€
