Chapter 444: Silver Robbery
"I see. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Wu Hu nodded, and said with a smile: "Cheng Zhutou, I didn't expect that when it comes to scheming, we real robbers are not as good as you!" ”
Cheng Gui's face trembled, and he shouted: "Presumptuous! ”
Wu Hu was completely unafraid and said: "Okay, put away your official authority, you and I are just a raccoon dog." ”
After that, Wu Hu swaggered away.
After Wu Hu left, Cheng Gui collapsed on the chair and couldn't move for a long time. The duty of catching fast is to catch thieves, Cheng Gui, as the head of fast catching, but colluded with thieves to rob tax silver, his heart is really mixed.
As soon as Zhang Baoer returned to his own courtyard, Uncle Hua brought news of Wu to ward off evil spirits.
After Zhang Bao'er heard this, she said to Uncle Hua: "Uncle Hua, go and invite Zhao Zhutou!" ”
After Zhao Langzhen came, Zhang Baoer explained the news he had just gotten in detail.
"The fast catcher that Zhou Chun said about the ventilation report, there can be no one else except Guan Shiqi." Zhao Langzhen sighed and said: "Speaking of which, Guan Shiqi is also my apprentice, he followed me when he was just a fast catcher, he was still down-to-earth at that time, and now he has become so greedy." ”
Zhang Bao'er said with a gloomy face: "Last year, he hacked Zhao Zhutou and made you wronged to this day. This time, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone, not only to get rid of Cheng Gui, but also to destroy me. Hum! ”
Zhao Langzhen persuaded: "Zhang Gongzi, let Guan Shiqi's matter go first, and then clean him up later, let's implement it as planned!" ”
……
The convoy escorting the tax money was ready to go in the county office, and the catchers were all fully armed, looking like they were facing a great enemy.
Zheng Muye glanced around, frowned and asked, "What about Cheng Gui?" ”
Guan Shiqi replied: "Cheng Zhutou is not feeling well and has taken leave!" ”
"Not feeling well?" Zheng Muye said with a cold face: "For such an important matter, he took a leave of absence as a head catcher, how can this work?" ”
Guan Shiqi was silent.
Zheng Muye instructed Guan Shiqi: "Hurry up, if you go to Cheng Gui's house, just say that I said it, as long as he can still breathe, he must escort the tax silver with the team." ”
Guan Shiqi left with a promise.
After a while, Guan Shiqi came back, and he said to Zheng Muye: "Cheng Zhutou said that he really can't come!" ”
Zheng Muye was furious when he heard this: "You go again and tell him that if he can't come today, he will never have to come to Yamen again in the future!" ”
This time, Cheng Gui followed Guan Shiqi.
Cheng Gui had a gloomy face and didn't say a word.
Zheng Muye didn't bother to pay attention to him, but just shouted towards the convoy: "Let's go!" ”
There was nothing wrong all the way, and the silver convoy soon arrived at the small inn.
"Brothers, rest here!" Cheng Gui said absent-mindedly.
In fact, even if Cheng Gui didn't say it, Zhongzhu knew that it was time to rest here, and the escort route map was marked in advance.
Cheng Gui felt very uncomfortable, originally he wanted to find a reason not to participate in this escort, so that he could clear himself up in the future. I don't know if Zheng Muye took the wrong medicine, staring at himself, and forcing himself to escort him, which made him feel a sense of foreboding.
The catchers entered the inn, and Wu Hu and a man came up to greet them.
Guan Shiqi was a little surprised and said: "I remember that the shopkeeper here is an old couple, has it changed?" ”
Wu Hu replied: "That's our parents, who are not feeling well today, so let our brothers come." ”
The catchers asked for a few side dishes, and planned to set off after eating.
Wu Hu served herbal tea to everyone, Cheng Gui glanced at the herbal tea, and got up to go to the back door to relieve himself.
When he arrived at the back door, Cheng Gui saw that there were blood stains on the road, so he walked along the blood stains and found the bodies of the old couple.
Cheng Gui was furious, pointed at Wu Hu and said, "You, you actually killed someone!" ”
Wu Hu said indifferently: "When we came, the old couple hadn't left yet, and when we asked, we realized that the old man was too stubborn and didn't believe that the robbers would kill them." ”
Cheng Gui said in a trembling voice: "How can you kill people casually? ”
Wu Hu smiled: "Where are the bandits who don't kill people?" Besides, don't you want us to get rid of that Bao'er too? Isn't that homicide? ”
As soon as the words fell, Wu Hu drew his knife and slashed at Cheng Gui.
Cheng Gui was caught off guard and was immediately stabbed. With an incredulous look on his face, he pointed at Wu Hu and didn't say a word, and fell in a pool of blood.
Wu Hu said with a smile: "When you were calculating others, you didn't expect that you were also calculated!" I still want to divide half of the silver, so let's dream of it! ”
In the inn, the catcher who was fascinated by sweat medicine lay down on the ground.
Wu Hu was about to deal with Zhang Bao'er, but saw Wu Qu evil come in and said, "Hurry up, someone is coming!" ”
The people in Qingyunzhai pushed the silver cart and left the inn.
In the evening, suddenly a group of black-clothed men on horseback appeared, about fifty people up and down, each with a black scarf covering their faces, and they followed the bandits of Qingyunzhai from a distance.
Is it black eating black? Seeing this, the bandits in Qingyunzhai were in an uproar, stopped and prepared for battle.
The bandits in Qingyun Village stopped, and the men in black also stopped, and the two sides confronted each other like this.
After a long time, Zhou Chun decided to move on, and it was not a way to go on like this.
The people of Qingyunzhai moved, and the people in black also moved, they followed closely behind, although they did not let their horses rush to kill, but from time to time they took bows and arrows.
The arrows of these black-clothed men were extremely accurate, and after a while, more than a dozen people in Qingyun Village were shot down.
Seeing this, Wei Yaohui suggested to Zhou Chun: "Big brother, it's not a way to go on like this, they must be coming for the silver, or I'll take the silver to lure them away, big brother, you hurry up and take the path back to the mountain, and bring more brothers to pick us up!" ”
At the critical moment, Wei Yaohui was so righteous, which made Zhou Chun somewhat moved, he held Wei Yaohui's hand and said: "Third brother, if you really can't do it, don't want those silvers, you must come back alive!" ”
"I see! Take care, big brother! ”
After that, Wei Yaohui went to arrange, and the people in Qingyunzhai were divided into two groups. One was led by Wei Yaohui, escorting the silver car and continuing to move forward. The other group was just led by Zhou Chun, and they changed direction and headed west, wanting to take a small road back to Qingyun Village.
The man in black still followed closely, but they followed Zhou Chun's side, but they ignored Wei Yaohui's side.
It was already dark, but the man in black was still following them.
"How so?" Zhou Chun said hatefully: "Aren't they for the silver?" ”
"Oh no, big boss, they seem to be attacking!" Wu Hu said suddenly.
Sure enough, the sound of the horses' hooves in the distance became rapid, and there was no doubt that the men in black on horseback began to speed up.
"Big brother, quick, run, go to the woods in front!" Wu expelled evil.
