Chapter 44: The Chamber of Secrets

After a stick of incense time to catch up, the small flag chased from the big stone finally saw hope.

The bloodstains on the ground should be the bandits, there is no one in front and there is here, which means that the people of the Li family have found a few of them.

Xiaoqi turned back to the angry brothers and said, "Brothers, this blood has not dried up yet, they are at most a hundred feet ahead of us, and if we grit our teeth again, we will be able to earn our wife's capital."

The three characters of wife have a deep attraction to sergeants, and it is difficult for sergeants to marry wives, and everything depends on money to speak.

If no one wants to marry, then buy one back, as long as they can have a baby, then it is not a problem.

And Li Fifteen, who was running in front, was almost exhausted, but he didn't dare to relax, the second housekeeper had already said it.

If he falls behind, the second housekeeper will not care about him, and without the protection of the Li family, Li Fifteen dare not imagine.

Trying his best to keep up with the pace of everyone, Li Shifu very much hopes to have the strength to carry Hao Da's man, who is not tired after a few miles.

In the end, he couldn't keep up, and the group didn't look back, and hurried south.

The second housekeeper glanced at Li Fifteen, who had stopped breathing, and turned around and said.

"Li Fifteen, watch and run to the field, since you can't run away, give us cover."

Li 15 did not respond, but sat paralyzed in the middle of the road, since there was no way to escape, he could not escape and sit and wait for the sergeant to arrest him.

When the second housekeeper saw this scene, he said to his subordinates: "I should have killed him if I knew it, you all hurry up, if you can't do it, you will throw Hao Da away."

Everyone didn't think there was anything wrong, this world is the weak, if you want to live well, if you want to live well, you have to rely on yourself, helping each other is just the words of the weak.

The big man who was carrying Hao Da said, "Butler, find a good place in front of me and throw Hao Da away, he saved me."

The second housekeeper glared at the big man, and he was still thinking about repaying his kindness at this time, which was really stupid.

The officers and soldiers behind him did not drag down, they should have walked faster, and if the time for a stick of incense did not arrive, everyone in the mountains in front of them could not run away.

The housekeeper's steps were faster, and the big man who carried Hao Da gritted his teeth to keep up, as long as he was slow, Li Fifteen was an example.

And the little flag and others in the back chased very hard, and now they don't have to check the bloodstains, and they have no cover all the way.

Xiaoqi looked at his brother, pulled out his knife and shouted: "If you want a mother-in-law, you have to work hard, and the eight people grabbed me and introduced you to your daughter-in-law one by one."

Xiaoqi was the first to rush out, and the rest of the sergeants carried up and followed, and one sergeant couldn't hold it anymore and squatted on the ground.

Tightness in the chest and some nausea.

Li Shifu, who had rolled to the side of the ditch in advance, didn't dare to come out, looked up slightly, and saw a sergeant squatting next to him.

I secretly said in my heart that this waste, I can't run, what kind of soldier is it.

Slowly lowered his head, for fear of alarming him.

The autumn water was cold and biting, and Li Shifu still endured it silently.

And the second housekeeper saw the officers and soldiers behind him, and angrily reprimanded: "If you don't put Hao Da down, you will accompany him to die, brothers, hurry up, you can get rid of these officers and soldiers when you enter the mountain."

In his heart, he began to be angry, Fang Cai should not have left Hao Da and Li Shifteen, without them, he would have entered the mountain by now.

As he spoke, he had already run, and the officers and soldiers behind must have chased after the group he had invited first, and then chased after him back, and now he was probably tired enough.

With a little more force, they can collapse, except for Li Fifteen and Hao Da, the group is still ten.

The ten people began to divide into two groups, the second housekeeper began to run with six people, and the one who was close to Dahan continued to accompany Dahan, persuading: "Brother Nian, you just let go of Hao Da, otherwise the officers and soldiers will be finished if they catch up with us, it doesn't matter if we die, what can the people in the family do?"

Dahan carried Hao Da and ran two steps, and directly threw Hao Da down, and the free fall movement made Hao Da spurt out a mouthful of blood.

He was already unconscious, and when he opened his eyes with great difficulty, he saw a spear close at hand.

Xiaoqi left two people to hold them, and the rest continued to chase.

And Li Fifteen also saw this scene, and his heart was sad, the second housekeeper even abandoned such an important person as Hao Da.

If the master knew that he would still be able to live, how would Li 15 know that his master was now being watched by the two brothers of the Cui family.

Cui Bai was originally curious why he couldn't see the main owner of the Li family, and only found out after asking the four housekeepers of the Li family by conventional means in the compound.

The Li family actually had a secret room, and Li Sheng went in by himself, leaving his wife and son on top.

There is really a father and a son, looking at the three people struggling on the side, this Li Sheng still has a lot of means.

Five dead soldiers, killed six sergeants, if it weren't for Cui Shouye's quick reaction, Cui Bai would be finished.

Cui Shouye dropped one hand and said: "Carry this Li Sheng out for me, send a team of people to inform Zhenfu, say that there is something wrong with the Li family's boat, and ask him to take someone to the Coastal Defense Hall to investigate, but if it doesn't work, it will be dismantled."

Cui Bai discussed the matter of the third child of the Li family going to the coastal defense hall before coming in, and he unanimously felt that there must be something wrong with the ship.

After the sergeant escorted the person out, Cui Bai began to look through the account books in the house, Cui Bai never understood why there were account books for doing illegal things and killing heads.

This is simply uncomfortable for himself, and every time he sees the scene of conviction through account books in the TV series, Cui Bai feels stupid.

But Cui Bai directly deleted his idea after reading the account books of the Li family, and every transaction was tens of thousands of taels, and if he didn't make the account books, he would lose money.

For example, this one, shipped from Yuegang, and a bucket of pearls.

A bucket of pearls? More than ten pounds of pearls?

This is the maritime businessman, this is the rich man, he is really rich, and looking at them one by one, Cui Bai feels that poverty limits his imagination.

But this is correct, according to Cui Bai's knowledge, Longqing opened the Moon Port until the Chongzhen period, and a total of more than 350 million taels of silver flowed into the Ming Dynasty.

As the first batch of crab eaters, the Li family can indeed earn so much money.

It's just that this matter has been stabbed to Jiang Yizhong, and these small amounts of money have nothing to do with him.

It would be great if he found a way to eat the Li family, what a little money, what a beautiful wife and a beautiful concubine, bah blah.

Cui Bai summoned the sergeant and moved the Li family's private account books out of the secret room one by one, and sealed all the gold, silver and jewelry inside.

Cui Bai wanted to watch the sergeant seal the box and confirm that the gold, silver and jewelry were on the account book, but he didn't expect to be called directly by Cui Shouye.

"Little brother, with these account books, even if the Li family can't turn over the case."

These things can convict the Li family, and the land in it is the same as the booklet in Lian Zhiwen's hand.

Some of the Li family's unsightly things are also recorded, such as transactions before the opening of Longqing, private shipbuilding, and so on.

These are all major crimes of sending the frontier to fill the army, and the only thing that makes Cui Bai uncomfortable is that he didn't catch the person who attacked the Cui family.
