Then, there were a few more screams outside, and then it fell silent again. After a while, a man hurriedly came over and reported: "My lord, the two assassins who fled outside have all been ambushed. ”

"Well, that's the end of today's business. After going back, the official invited a treat, and everyone counted one as one, and they didn't return if they didn't get drunk. Xue Pingchuan stood up and said with some spirit. After speaking, he turned his face to look at the subordinates around him who had suffered heavy casualties, and his face suddenly became gloomy. He stepped aside and glanced at Xu Anping. After Xu Anping walked over, he asked in a low voice, "Brother Xu, do you feel that something is strange about tonight?" ”

Xu Anping had doubts in his heart, but he didn't take the initiative to speak, and then replied with some doubts: "My lord, what do you mean?" ”

"I feel like something is wrong tonight. Our group entered the inn lightly, and after hearing the news, we killed them as quickly as possible, but we were still ambushed. Speaking of this, Xue Pingchuan's face was gloomy as if it was about to drip water.

"My lord, my subordinates feel this way too. And, do you ever feel like the things ahead are going too well? ”

"Oh? What do you mean? ”

Xu Anping bowed and replied: "My lord, the Blood Hand Alliance has been rampant on the rivers and lakes for many years, and it was not until some time ago that it leaked out of the horse's feet, and our Beizhen Fusi took off the rudder of the capital. Despite this, it can also be seen that their daily activities are well organized and not a rabble. What's more, when we came in over the wall, the other party was obviously in ambush for a long time before we were caught off guard. ”

Xue Pingchuan nodded after hearing this, and then said, "You are right! So do you think we didn't bother to leak the news, or did someone report the news? ”

Xu Anping hesitated for a moment before saying, "This subordinate is not sure." The brothers suffered heavy casualties this time, and if anyone became a traitor, they would not have put themselves in. ”

Xue Pingchuan was suddenly stunned when he heard this, and asked sharply, "What about Xu Deli and his son?" ”

"My lord, when my subordinates rushed out just now, they saw Xu Deli and his son falling by the wall, they couldn't have been killed by the assassin with an arrow, right?"

Xue Pingchuan didn't care about the pain of the wound, turned around and walked towards the wall, saw that there were no corpses of the two on the ground, and shouted directly at the few people who were sitting on the ground chatting and farting: "Stand up for Lao Tzu, the target is the inn!" Arrest all the people in the backyard of the inn. If anyone resists, shoot and kill! ”

Several people glanced at each other, their eyes were uncertain, but they still stood up and followed Xue Pingchuan towards the inn.

Half an hour later, the group returned to the inn, but there were more than half a dozen people less than when they went, and almost all of them were wounded.

Xue Pingchuan looked at the inn with cold eyes, and with a wave of his big hand, everyone rushed into the backyard with knives, followed by a burst of chickens, dogs, jumping, and crying.

After a few moments, the backyard was quiet again, except for one room with the lights on, and the rest of the rooms were plunged into darkness again.

Xue Pingchuan looked gloomily at the pair of old men, a middle-aged woman and a rather attractive concubine kneeling in front of him, and asked in a cold voice: "Tell the official where Xu Deli went, and the official can let you live." Otherwise, you can taste the eighteen torture instruments of the Beizhen Fusi, and ensure that you can't survive and die. ”

The men were silent, and the old man and the woman were on their knees trembling.

"Okay, you guys are really caring for your son! The official has great respect for the elderly. If you can hold on, I don't mind leaving you with a whole corpse. Others, though, weren't so lucky. Hey, hey, hey...... Someone's coming! Interrogate them separately, and whoever tells the official where Xu Deli is hiding can live. ”

"Yes, sir!" Several uninjured lieutenants swarmed up, each carrying one to another room.

Xue Pingchuan waved his hand and stopped: "Slow! Just when Xu Deli's family regained some hope after despair, he spoke again: "This little girl is still quite beautiful, you can toss at will!" ”

"Thank you, sir! The subordinate must pry her mouth open. Hey, hey, hey......" One of the lieutenants was overjoyed, patting his chest and reassuring.

When the concubine heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and she couldn't help but struggle and beg for mercy: "My lord, spare my life!" Spare your life! The slave family really doesn't know where the master has gone. The slave family is usually a sprinkling and cleaning at home, and he doesn't know anything! Spare your life......"

Xu Deli's parents were also so frightened that their faces turned blue, but they still gritted their teeth and didn't say a word.

Half an hour later, the four subordinates came back and reported: "My lord, their mouths are very hard, and they refuse to say whether they live or die, and the subordinates may need some time." And, well......"

"If there's a fart, let it go! Don't be such a mother-in-law, like a. When Xue Pingchuan heard that there was still no news, he suddenly became angry, and he couldn't suppress it.

A subordinate stubbornly said: "My lord, that little lady is in too poor health, and she died before she tossed a few times." After speaking, he couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"You!" Xue Pingchuan just wanted to be angry, but when he saw the other party's appearance, he thought that it was really difficult for everyone tonight, so he waved his hand and said, "Tonight, you roll Lao Tzu to the wall and guard." If Xu Deli comes back, leave him behind, whether he lives or dies! If he runs away again, Lao Tzu will kill you! ”

"Yes, my lord! The subordinates will go. With that, he ran out, hid in a dark place, and began to stare at the movement around him.
