Chapter 245 Twists and turns
"Under the East Fence" has arrived.
From a distance, it is only the tallest building in the West City, and when you get closer, you can really feel how big it really is.
There are three floors in total, plus an invisible floor, but the height of each of the three floors below is equivalent to the height of a normal two-story pavilion, so this "under the east fence" is as high as a seven-story Futu pagoda.
However, as tall as a seven-story pagoda, its area is 100 times wider than a pagoda. The main building of this building is a mile in circumference, which is already large enough, and on the periphery, except for the faΓ§ade as the faΓ§ade, there are no additional buildings, and the other three sides are connected to some buildings, stretching out, row upon row, and I don't know how many houses are connected to it.
Li Yu and the four of them went downstairs and looked up, although the three big characters of "under the east fence" were on the top of the high building, they were still as big as a bucket and were extremely eye-catching.
The four of them looked at each other, and they all saw the resolute courage in each other's eyes.
Early in the morning, it was not the time for the restaurant to open, but the door of the restaurant had been opened, and the second child was tidying up and wiping the tables and chairs, preparing for business.
Some of them saw the four Li Yu standing on the street in front of the door, and also saw the knife in their hands, but they were not afraid at all, but just looked at it a few more times curiously.
The four of Li Yu nodded to each other, and they were about to rush into the "East Fence" in one go, forcing Rao Geng, the tiger of the West City, to appear. At this moment, eight dukes suddenly appeared from four directions, front, back, left and right at the same time, showing their fishing knives, measuring rulers and flails, and approached them violently.
"Don't move! At the feet of the Son of Heaven, those who resist arrest die! Another duke appeared, dressed in head-catching clothes, roaring like thunder and full of energy.
In the crowd not far behind him, there were Mai Chen and Rong Xu, both of whom sneered and looked at Li Yu and the others like clowns.
Master Kang was stunned, this situation was really something he had never expected. The public represents the government, and the majesty of the government is not something that a good citizen dares to offend. Master Kang can spare his death, but he still has worries in the world, and if he has concerns, how can he resist the law?
In a hurry, Master Kang couldn't help but look at Li Yu. I don't know why, at this moment, the only one he trusts and believes can deal with it wisely is Li Yu.
Hua Lin, like Master Kang, even if he has put life and death aside, he does not dare to offend the law of the country. Willing to cut his whole body, dare to pull the emperor off the horse? The premise is that you have one vertical and one horizontal, and you have no worries in this world, and Hualin has the same concerns.
Only Liu Yuntao, his wife and daughter were killed in the fire, and in two months, he would have to be punished, and he no longer had any fear, but he didn't feel that he set his sights on Li Yu. Although he has a lot of brute strength and a bit of kung fu, if he starts with the catchers first, I'm afraid that he won't have a chance to break into the "east fence" at all.
In the writings of later novelists, the county order is a seven-grade sesame official, so humble that it is not worth mentioning. In fact, how? That's a parent, a hundred miles of supreme, a broken county order, a big man who condemns your life and death, honor and disgrace, and nobility and cheapness.
In the writings of later novelists, the masters of martial arts are all transcendent people who dominate the world, do not worry about food and clothing, and can ignore the powerful and above others. In fact, how?
Although the Tang Dynasty did not have the saying that "everything is inferior, only the study is high", and those who have no force are just people who are driven by others.
The so-called ranger is a prodigal son who has no livelihood, and the strange people such as Kongkonger, Jingjing'er, and Red-line Girl in the Tang legend are just assassin killers who serve as a Jiedu envoy.
In the writings of later novelists, the servants are all foxes and tigers, and they are all small deflated people who have little ability, but what is the actual situation?
Ren Tu Guo Nu is just an executioner, in those novels, he is always a small trick on the law field, spraying a sip of wine on the knife, and finally splitting a knife, nine times out of ten it will be interrupted by the person who robbed the law field.
In fact, his deep immersion in knife techniques is not inferior to that of a famous knife artist, and what he lacks is only the practice of knife moves.
It's the same with the fast catchers, those foxes and fake tigers, and the deflated three fast catchers who don't have much ability, in fact, most of them are helpers, and there are very few real fast catchers in a government and a county with a court establishment. And most of these people who are really fast are really capable.
Tang Shou and Judo, these actual combat skills, were originally derived from the capture kung fu used by the catchers of the Central Plains Imperial Court to catch people.
Perhaps when the industry became a hereditary profession, the catchers gradually became famous, but in this era when there was no hereditary catcher, especially at the beginning of the establishment of a country, the strength of the six doors should not be underestimated.
And this is the capital, and the fast catchers here are all elites, and no mediocre hand can make a living in the fast catching industry in this place. If Li Yu and the others dare to resist, these are approaching cautiously, and what looks like a very ordinary catcher will immediately turn into a man-devouring tiger.
Their knives, measuring scales, flails, and chains can all be turned into murderous weapons. It is not a problem for Li Yu to break through alone, but if he maintains the other three, he will lose sight of one or the other, and he will be powerless.
Seeing the four people frozen there, and the catchers approaching step by step, Mai Chen and Rong Xu smiled even more happily: "These four fools, looking for revenge?" In broad daylight, carrying a knife to the door to seek revenge on Lao Tzu? Ha! Will you be alone with you? If you do a little trick, you'll be killed! β
Seeing that the crowd was approaching in a circle, Li Yu suddenly laughed too, laughing self-deprecatingly.
Li Yu was frightened by their ruthlessness, their viciousness, and their lawlessness, and overestimated them, forgetting their essence, just a bunch of ruffians! They are not thieves like Su Gan Chengji, nor are they bandits like Luo Badao, characters like Niu Er, why do they tell you about the rules of the rivers and lakes?
"Dangchang!"
Li Yu let go, the steel knife fell to the ground, and the crowd immediately stopped, staring at him nervously.
Li Yu smiled all over his face, laughing harmlessly: "Bad officials, don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand." We are all tricksters of the Daodaofang Goolan Courtyard, and now the business is not good, there are many people in the West Market, so we come to play tricks, show off our skills, and recruit officials. β
"Dangchang!"
The master of Kangban is old and fine, how slippery. As soon as Li Yu's words came out, Master Kang immediately understood, and immediately threw away the knife and made a circle: "Ladies and gentlemen, listen carefully, the little old man's surname is Kang, and there is a hook bar in the moral workshop, and it has been thirty or forty years since I talked about it, and I never thought that it would be burned to ashes in one day......
Master Kang told the embarrassment of hundreds of people in the garden who had no means of livelihood and the pity of the tragic death of their relatives in a touching and heart-warming way, which made people cry, and won the pity of the onlookers. Before Master Kang finished speaking, dozens of copper plates had fallen under his feet.
The crowd is almost stupid. They did accept Mai Chen's money, but they just sent the police quickly and handled the case more hard, and they had to follow the rules for other fears, so they couldn't just look at the good as a thief, right?
These four people have knives in their hands, but the people don't ban knives. People carry knives to the densely populated West Market, do some juggling performances, promote their Goolan Courtyard, and call on the people to go to the play, what's not to do?
Mai Chen and Rong Xu were also stunned, they didn't expect that since this kid broke into the West City with the idea of death, he should be full of blood, how could he calmly weigh the pros and cons at an emergency moment and quickly come up with this method.
"Damn! They should wait for them to rush under the fence and start moving, and then let the catchers take action. Mai Chen gritted his teeth and said.
Rong Xu snorted coldly: "Will the catchers be at the mercy of you and me?" Besides, let them kill under the 'East Fence, in case they disturb Uncle Chang, even Brother Rao can't afford to be guilty, let alone you and me.
Mai Chen gritted his teeth: "I'll inform Brother Rao of the situation here, and you send someone to keep an eye on them." Dare to stretch out your claws to us, huh! Find an opportunity for ......"
Rong Xu sneered: "I know, the gods didn't know it, so they sank them in the qu pool!" β
Mai Chen nodded, glanced at Li Yu and the four of them with a fierce look in his eyes, quietly took two steps back, and did not enter the crowd.
Zhong Yu was dumbfounded, looked at Li Yu and Kang Banzhu, and then looked at Liu Yuntao and Hua Lin, who were holding knives and standing behind Li Yu stupidly like gods on the left and right, and turned their heads to look at the head catcher.
The head catcher was in a hurry, but his face was still cold, he held his hands on his shoulders, held his chest forward, and said in a deep voice: "At the door of the other people's store, is it where you are setting up a stall?" Go and go, don't mess around here. Otherwise, if you get entangled with the store, you will also be right. β
That's not what the headhunter got to get that news, but so what? The money has been collected, the work has been done, and it is better not to fight for your life. He is closing the team at this moment, and he is also at ease. However, this head catcher is quite particular, and he still led people to guard the door and ordered the four of them to leave.
Li Yu has calculated everything, but he has not counted the stubborn gangsters who have the courage and courage to set fire to dozens of people, and they are acting like this.
In fact, Su Gan Chengji and Luo Badao ran to the "East Fence" last time to challenge Chang Jiannan, and how could they have encountered the treatment of Zheng'er Bajing, it is the same as a scoundrel method, but the little splash is a lime clapper brick, and Chang Jiannan's hand playing in the "East Fence" is much larger.
The question is the truth of the fight between the two sides, Luo Badao and Su Gan Chengji will not say it, and the people on Chang Jiannan's side will not say it, how can Li Yu know the style of these people.
Now that the crowd is standing in front of the building, it is impossible to act according to the original plan, once they leave, they have to guard against the open guns and arrows launched by Rao Geng's people at any time, Li Yu is also thinking about how to face this tricky situation.
At this time, two people suddenly walked out of the building under the "east fence", the person in front was tall and thin, and the person in the back was thin and tall, with the same long and tall figure, and the robe was worn on them, as if it was picked on two bamboo poles, swaying.
"What about the car, let's ......" Yang Siqi walked out of the "East Fence", while saying, he stood on the steps and looked left and right, and suddenly saw Hua Lin at a glance, and couldn't help but show a happy look: "Ah! Xiaolinzi, are you here for me? β
Yang Siqi didn't have a fight, so he greeted him with a smile, Li Yu watched him walk past him without squinting, and he didn't even nod his head, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: Mr. Yang deliberately pretended not to know me, could it be that there is any deep meaning?
Hua Lin was also a little surprised to see Yang Siqi, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Yang! β
Yang Siqi said with a smile: "I was about to follow ...... Whoever goes to survey a piece of land together, you can go with me, let's do it. β
Hua Lin hesitated: "Ah, this ...... I ......"
Only then did Yang Siqi notice the knife Hua Lin was holding in his hand, and he was surprised: "Huh? What do you bring a knife for? β
Hua Lin greeted Li Yu awkwardly, hoping that he would relieve himself: "I'...... Uh, Brother Li...... Look at Mr. Yangβ......"
Li Yu stepped forward, pulled his elbow with a knife, and hugged his fist to Yang Siqi and said, "Mr. Yang! β
Yang Siqi nodded to him friendly: "Hello, I see that you are a little kind, let's ...... Have you ever seen it? β
Plum Fish: ......
Hua Lin couldn't help but say: "Mr. Yang, he is the son of the Pan lady in your family, you have seen him several times." β
"Ahh Is it? Really! β
Yang Siqi patted his head and said to Li Yu apologetically: "I'm a person who is often absent-minded, and we haven't been taking photos for a long time, so I didn't remember, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Uh, why do you have a knife with you, what are you trying to do? β
Hua Lin hurriedly explained a few words to him, he knew that this Mr. Yang was an idiot, he knew how to paint and paint all day long, otherwise he would do carpenter work, study his weird things, and he didn't care about foreign affairs, and wanted to scare him away, but he didn't know that this Mr. Yang was actually a person from the king of Xishi, and he belonged to Siliang and was in a high position.
As soon as he heard what Hua Lin said, Yang Siqi became angry: "What you said is true? β
Hua Lin pointed to Master Kang and Liu Yuntao next to him, and said, "The bitter master is here, is it true that you said it?" β
Yang Siqi said angrily: "Hurt the heavens and reason, and be mad!" Come with me! β
Yang Siqi turned around angrily and entered the "East Fence" again, Hua Lin subconsciously wanted to follow up, but was caught by a quick forward and glared at him in deterrence. Yang Siqi looked back and shouted, "Why don't you come in yet!" β
Hua Lin pointed at the catcher and said, "This bad official is not allowed to faint!" β
Yang Siqi was angry, glared at the catcher, and said: "This 'East Fence' is a tavern, not your yamen, why is it forbidden for people to enter and leave?" β
The catcher was also a little confused, seeing that this person came out of the "East Fence", this "East Fence" has not yet opened, he should be the person "under the East Fence". It is also the people who invite them to come here to maintain the peace of the "East Fence". One let in, the other doesn't let in, isn't Lao Tzu a person inside and out?
The catcher quickly turned his head to look at the catcher, and the thin and tall man who followed Yang Siqi out recognized this catcher, not long ago, he was the one who ordered the county to repair the house, and this catcher also went to the county master's house to help at that time.
The thin and tall man with his hands in his sleeves and his feet skimming his eight figures, stood firmly under the door, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Chen Zhutou, this Mr. Yang, is the one who can freely enter and exit the 'upstairs and upstairs'!" β
Chen Zhutou's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and others couldn't hear the meaning of this sentence, but as a segment catcher in this area, how could he know nothing about the details of "under the east fence". Someone wanted to break into the east fence, and the people under the east fence asked them to come forward to stop it, and some people under the east fence wanted to bring people in......
Chen Zhutou made up a "conspiracy drama" in his brain: the water is so deep.
The thought must be that Chen Zhutou still had no expression on his face, only nodded to the thin and tall man in white to show his gratitude, turned around, put his hands behind his back, and walked away leisurely.
Yang Siqi didn't bother to pay attention to them, and couldn't wait to wave to Li Yu and the others in the hall, and said, "You come with me!" Then he hurried inward.
