Chapter 164: Be prepared
There are quite a few bandits, there are nearly a hundred, which is a little different from the rough style of ordinary bandits, these people are all dressed in black and masked.
"What's going on? These people seem to be well-trained, and the thieves still need to change into such clothes in order to kill people? Xiaoqing herself was also puzzled, but she didn't think about it, people had already reached the sky above these people.
But I heard a thief say: "Wait a minute, the person surnamed Xu will come here soon, and when the time comes, he will kill it, no matter what the thirty-seven twenty-one are all done, except for Xu Xian's corpse, the rest will bury the body on the spot, just as if nothing happened, you can wait to receive the reward after you go back." ”
"Good!" Someone is following suit.
Another thief asked, "What if someone runs away?" ”
"If the person runs away, you don't have to go back, useless things, can't you do such a trivial thing? This is the best opportunity to kill him, the nobleman behind him can wait to send the head of the surname Xu back, if it is done, you will be prosperous and rich in the future! ”
After saying that, the group of people who followed them were silent.
Xiaoqing was so angry that she thought to herself: "The feelings are not thieves killing people, listening to this meaning, there seems to be someone behind the instructions, my brother-in-law was invited by the prefect of Hejian Mansion to go to Fucheng before, could it be that the prefect of Hejian Mansion is also involved?" ”
Thinking of this, Xiaoqing was no longer polite, she went up directly to kill someone, and suddenly thought of Bai Suzhen's previous explanation, she couldn't be killed casually.
"For the sake of my brother-in-law, this killing is nothing, these people are all evildoers, leaving their lives in the world, I don't know how many people will suffer, I kill them, it is considered to be doing the right thing for heaven!"
Thinking of this, Xiaoqing was ruthless, and went directly to kill, she first used her own spells to freeze all these people, these people didn't know what the situation was, and people couldn't move.
Immediately Xiaoqing went up, three times and five divided by two, all of them directly used the method of piercing the throat to kill these personalities on the spot, after killing people, Xiaoqing herself also regretted a little, suddenly killing so many people, she felt a sense of guilt in her heart.
"It's good that I came over in time, otherwise my brother-in-law would have been killed, and I actually did all this for my brother-in-law." Xiaoqing comforted herself in her heart.
After Xiaoqing used a spell to clean up the surroundings, he immediately went to meet Xu Xian, and after he found Xu Xian through his exploration power, he found that Xu Xian did not take the previous road at all.
At this time, Xu Xian's subordinates were also very strange why Xu Xian wanted to take a detour.
“…… My lord, walking from the North Peak Valley is much closer than taking a detour from the South Mountain, isn't it better for us to take the North Peak Valley? A soldier from Yanshan County, as a guide, asked strangely.
Xu Xian said: "After the official arrived in Yanshan County, he studied the surrounding terrain, if there are bandits on the way to attack us, Beifeng Valley is the easiest place to be attacked, even if you can save half an hour by walking there, there is no need, we must not only be fast on this way, but more importantly, be cautious." ”
Hearing this, Xiaoqing couldn't help but feel red-faced.
"Brother-in-law too, I worked hard to clear the obstacles for him, and he is good...... If you don't go that way, what does that mean? Xiaoqing was angry in her heart, but after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't help but admire Xu Xian a little more in her heart, "Brother-in-law does everything without leakage, he has already anticipated the danger in advance, it seems that he has to learn more from him in what he does." ”
……
……
After that, Xu Xian walked all the way flat, and it was not until the second half of the night that Xu Xian and his party stopped to rest.
The group set off again after dawn, Xiaoqing didn't close her eyes all the way, she was afraid that someone would attack Xu Xian when she was resting.
By the next day, Xu Xian had another day of travel, and before dark, Xu Xian arrived in Fucheng.
When he arrived at Hejian Mansion, Xu Xian took his official credentials and road to the city gate, there are many bandits around Hejian Mansion, and this is also the border wasteland of the northern country of Dasheng Kingdom, even if it is a mansion city, it is not much prosperous.
The city gate is also closed during the day, only the city gate will be opened in less than an hour sooner or later, and Xu Xian's arrival happened to be when the city gate was opened, but at this time, only people were allowed to go out, and no one was allowed to enter the city.
“…… Those who enter the city, please be early tomorrow, even if there is a guide, they will not be allowed to enter! "The people guarding the city gate are very domineering, these people are greedy for money, and only those who take out the silver will let them in, and Xu Xian took the official certificate to the past, indicating that he is the magistrate of Yanshan County, and he is still not allowed to enter the prefect Liu and Kuan's appointment.
Xu Xian said: "This official is here to see Governor Liu, why don't you let him go?" ”
"There are bandits rampant around Hejian Mansion, I'm afraid that there are bandits mixed in, you say that you are the magistrate, how do we know if you are impersonating? And you have so many people under you, Yanshan County has not been peaceful recently, maybe your subordinates will be a group of bandits, hmph, enter the city tomorrow morning! ”
As soon as the captain guarding the city gate heard that he was the magistrate of Yanshan County, he was even more energetic, also because he felt that the magistrate of the county must be very rich, and it should be no problem to collect some money and let people enter the city.
Hearing the captain's words, Xu Xian's men immediately became angry, these people were all fighting with bandits, and when they were complacent at this time, they couldn't stand this idleness.
Xu Xian said: "Since you refuse to let you go, then the official is not welcome, come here, kill it!" ”
"Order!" Xu Xian's subordinates had been waiting for Xu Xian's order for a long time, and when they heard this, everyone took out their own affairs.
"You ......" The captain was dumbfounded when he saw it, he had never seen Xu Xian so horizontal.
If you are not allowed to enter the city, you can be released if you give ten taels or eight taels of silver, but Xu Xian actually wants to ask the guy to fight hard, and the number of people under Xu Xian is not proportional to the number of city gate guards, and Xu Xian is not much different from looking for death by doing this.
"It's against you, dare to mess around, copy the guy!" The lieutenant didn't seem to be a vegetarian either, and it stands to reason that he was the most afraid of this situation, but he was still very persistent, and actually asked his subordinates to copy the guy and prepare to work hard.
But his subordinates were a little stunned, in the end, Xu Xian was a magistrate, whether he was killed by Xu Xian, or Xu Xian was killed, they were inevitably responsible for this matter.
Just when the two sides were preparing to fight at the gate of the city, a carriage suddenly came, and a person got out of the carriage, and Lao Yuan shouted: "Stop! ”
Getting out of the carriage was a man in his thirties, dressed in civilian clothes, but at first glance he looked like an official.
"Song Tongzhi?" Those who are guarding the city gate know each other, and this person is Song Huazhu, the same acquaintance of Hejian Mansion.
And the captain also greeted him, and said from afar: "Brother-in-law, these people don't know what to do, and they dare to break into the city gate and kill them all, let them know that they are powerful!" ”
