Chapter Fifty-Seven: Hearing the Wind and Moving

When the masked man in black came between Dongshi and Anyifang, Su Muqing also followed, and just as the six masked men in black were about to jump over the wall, Su Muqing stopped them.

When the six masked men in black saw that someone was obstructing, they stopped jumping over the wall, only to see that one of them, who seemed to be their leader, ordered two of the masked men in black to intercept and kill Su Muqing, and the other four jumped over the wall.

When the two masked black-clothed men who stayed behind to intercept and kill hurried towards Su Muqing, Su Muqing must have thought carefully about the purpose of their trip, "It's bad, the focus of their actions is in the fang." ”

Su Muqing saw that the two masked black-clothed men who had intercepted and killed him had arrived in front of him, so he quickly took off into the air, because at this time, the sharp sword of the masked black-clothed man had already stabbed at him.

Seeing that the two masked men in black were in the air, they quickly turned around and stabbed Su Muqing again, and the two of them went up and down, forcing Su Muqing, who was bare-handed, to fight back, so he could only retreat.

When Su Muqing retreated to a wall, he kicked the wall with one foot and climbed up, and then kicked the masked man in black with the other foot, only to see one of the masked men in black fall to the ground, and the other masked man in black was still intact, so he stabbed Su Muqing again.

At this time, Su Muqing stood motionless, waiting for the masked man in black to stab him, when the masked man in black approached him, he leaned down, slid forward, and then quickly attacked, first knocked down the masked man's sword, and then kicked down the other party, only to see the other party vomit blood and fall to the ground.

At this time, another masked man in black had already taken his sword and stood up again, and Su Muqing was already holding a sword at this time.

Su Muqing, who was holding a sharp sword, made a move with another masked black-clothed man, and the masked black-clothed man made a vicious move and made a fatal move, but Su Muqing knew that he had been delayed for a long time, so he no longer entangled with him, quickly bypassed the other party, and sealed his throat with a sword.

Su Muqing saw that the two had fallen to the ground, so he hurriedly jumped over the wall and chased after the four masked men in black.

When Su Muqing entered Anyi Fang, he couldn't find the four masked men in black, and suddenly saw a sudden light over a mansion not far away, and knew that a private house must be on fire, so he ran to it.

The door of this burning mansion was closed, but there were screams in the courtyard, Su Muqing immediately kicked the door open without thinking, and saw several servants lying in the courtyard, presumably the guardians and maids of this house.

Su Muqing saw that the main hall was not yet on fire, so he immediately ran in. Sure enough, the four masked men in black were interrogating a man in the house, who had three sharp swords on his head, and a woman next to him had already fallen to the ground and died.

"Don't!"

As Su Muqing's words fell, a child next to the man also fell to the ground and bled to death.

Su Muqing saw that the masked man in black was cruel, and he didn't even let go of the defenseless women and children, suddenly his eyes turned black, and instantly a cloud of memories poured into his mind, his eyes were closed, full of painful expressions, and when he opened his eyes, his eyes suddenly turned red, revealing a murderous aura.

Su Muqing roared angrily, and instantly came to the four masked black-clothed men with a sharp sword, and before the four masked black-clothed men could react, they had already fallen to the ground, so the remaining two masked black-clothed men slashed at Su Muqing with sharp swords.

When Su Muqing fought with the remaining two masked men in black, Su Muqing was scratched by one of the masked men in black, and he didn't seem to feel anything, at this time he was even more furious, and immediately killed the masked man in black who had scratched himself, while the other masked man in black saw his companion fall and slashed at Su Muqing, but Su Muqing came up with a kick, kicked the opponent off guard, and kicked the opponent until he fell to a foot away and spit blood, the man saw that the situation was not good for him, so he tried to stand up and run for his life.

At this time, Su Muqing felt a wave of dizziness and was almost about to fall, and then he used the sword in his hand to support himself.

When Su Muqing came to his senses, he looked at the middle-aged man who had survived, only to see him huddled in one place trembling and looking at his dead wife and children.

At this time, Su Muqing had already woken up, so he knew that the fire in the house would soon attract the left guards, so he held a sword in one hand and supported the person in the other hand and quickly fled the scene.

When they left the gate of the house, the patrol of the left guard was rushing towards the side of the house, and Su Muqing saw that they were approaching, so he led the man to run down the path.

The East Market has been closed, and there are Wuhou shops at the corners of the doors of the East City, and there are more guards guarding them, compared to the East Market, Pingkangfang is more relaxed, so Su Muqing fled in the direction of Pingkangfang with the man.

When Su Muqing took the man to sneak into Pingkangfang, he rushed to Wanhualou. At this time, Yuxin was standing in the attic and watching, and when Su Muqing met her eyes, she immediately went downstairs and opened the door.

"Childe, what's going on?"

"Quick...... Let's go inside. ”

After Yuxin helped Su Muqing and the man into the Wanhua Building, he casually closed the door tightly.

When Su Muqing and the man came to Yuxin's room, the person had not yet recovered to normal, and the sword wound on Su Muqing's body had already ooped blood, so Yuxin helped Su Muqing wipe the bleeding wound first, and then applied some medicine.

The fleeing masked man in black had stumbled into a mansion where the veil had been lifted, and the main hall of the mansion was brightly lit.

"I've seen the prefectural order."

"You're done?"

The man in black did not answer, and this county magistrate was Wang Mingkun, the county magistrate of Wannian County.

"Why don't you answer?"

Wang Mingkun's tone was obviously aggravated, and the man in black was still kneeling on the ground, his head pressed against the ground.

"Rubbish! I can't do this little thing, what use do you want. ”

Wang Mingkun kicked down the man in black, and the man in black immediately knelt in front of Wang Mingkun again.

"The county order spares your life, spare your little life...... I remember what that guy looked like. ”

"Are you saying that someone saved Li Gu, not the obstruction of the left guards?"

"Yes, the prefectural order."

"You've messed up this, and now there's only ...... This official spared your life for the time being. ”

When the man in black heard that Wang Mingkun had spared his life, he hurriedly kowtowed to Wang Mingkun in succession.

At this time, the left waiting guards gathered in Anyi Fang, and they patrolled back and forth in the various squares of Wannian County, and the burning house in Anyi Fang was almost burned out, leaving only a few broken walls.

In the Wanhua Building of Pingkangfang, Su Muqing told Yuxin what happened tonight, and then he told Yuxin to settle Li Gu, and when the sky was slightly bright, he changed his clothes and prepared to return to the country.

"Childe, although the night ban has just been lifted at this time, the number of officers and soldiers patrolling the shops has increased unabated, and Childe is afraid that the patrols will be suspected when he goes out at this time, so it is better to wait for the people to go out with them when they go out."

"Well, that's all there is to it now."

After another hour, a large number of residents in Pingkangfang began to go out to run errands, and Su Muqing took the opportunity to walk out of Pingkangfang.

When Su Muqing came out of Pingkangfang, he hurried to Wubenfang. When he quietly returned to the Guozijian, the whole Guozijian was still quiet, and the Confucian scholars had not yet gotten up, so he quietly walked into the dormitory room.

Before all the Confucian students of the Guozijian got up, the scholars began to release the lists, and they posted the honor list and the potential list respectively.

When most of the Confucian scholars got up, they didn't even eat breakfast, and they had to go to the bulletin board to watch the two lists, and the bulletin board was already crowded with people.

"Haha...... I'm on the honor roll, I'm on the honor roll. ”

A four-door Confucian student saw his name on the honor list, so he couldn't help but shout, of course, there were also Confucian students on the honor list who behaved very low-key, and after seeing his name on the honor list, he turned around and left.

There are those who are on the honor list, there are those who are on the potential list, and some Confucian students who came out of the crowd are lost, except for those who are unknown on the two lists, that is, those who are on the potential list, and all the Confucian students on the potential list are punished, that is, to volunteer for the country for a month.

At this time, Li Yuze and Ouyang Tong squeezed into the crowd, while Han Huo was waiting outside the crowd, as for Su Muqing, he may not care about this, or he may have palpitations because of last night's incident, so he simply stayed in the dormitory room alone and did not go out.

Li Yuze first looked for Han Hui's name on the honor list, and when he saw that the top of the list was Han Hui, he was not happy, so he turned around and shouted to Han Huo outside the crowd: "Han Hui, you are the top of the list!" ”

"At the top of the list of potentials."

"No, it's the top of the honor roll."

Han Huo didn't seem to believe what Li Yuze said, but in fact, he didn't believe that he could be the top of the honor list, so he replied: "Don't lie to me, come and let me see." ”

So, Han Huo tried his best to squeeze into the crowd and looked at the honor list, and sure enough, the top of the list was himself, and Li Yuze was below him, as for Ouyang Tong, he was third, and Su Muqing was fifth, and the fourth place was a Confucian named "Zhao Shicheng".

When Ouyang Tong saw his ranking, although he was a little disappointed, he was generous enough, and when he saw Han Huo at the top of the list, he congratulated him.

After Han Huo saw that his ranking turned out to be the top of the honor list, the corners of his mouth rose, and he smiled slightly, he had no expectations for being on the honor list, he was pleasantly surprised that he unexpectedly became the top of the list, but he didn't show it excessively, but turned around and left in a low-key manner, but no one around him knew that he was Han Huo who won this year's Keju competition, so when Han Huo left the bulletin board, other Confucian students cast admiring glances at Han Hui.

The Confucian students around the bulletin board gradually became scarce, and the Confucian students who had seen the rankings were really happy and worried, but the enthusiasm for going home during the holidays was always the same, and the Confucian students who already knew their rankings went back to the dormitory to pack their clothes and prepare to go home.

As Li Yuze and Ouyang Tong walked back to their dormitory, they all slowed down, because the conversation between the two Confucian scholars walking next to them aroused their interest.

"You know what? Last night, there was a murder in Chang'an City. ”

"How could I not know, I also heard that it was a tragedy."

"Yes, it's in Anyifang, and now it's been burned all night, and there are only ruins left."

"Alas, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a tragic thing happened."

Li Yuze and Ouyang Tong were shocked when they heard the conversation between the two Confucian scholars.

When they returned to the dormitory, they told Han Hui and Su Muqing, who were already in the room, about these conversations, and when Han Huo heard it, he was as shocked as Li Yuze and Ouyang Tong, and Su Muqing was surprisingly calm, but they were not surprised by this.

At noon, there were not many Confucian students left in Guozijian, and when Li Yuze and Ouyang Tong had already packed their burdens and left the dormitory, the supervisor Li Nanfeng appeared in front of their dormitory.

"The four of you stay, and now follow me to the room."

When Li Nanfeng finished his order, he turned around and left, and Li Yuze and Ouyang Tong listened to the instructions of the prisoner, returned to the room, put down the baggage, and went to the prisoner's room with Han Huo and Su Muqing, who were packing up their clothes, and Zhou Daowu and Cen Changqian came to the prisoner's room with the four of them.

The six of them stood side by side, and Li Nanfeng did not sit behind the desk this time, but stood in front of the six of them to lecture.

"Presumably you have heard about the tragedy that happened last night, and now I will give the six of you a task," Li Nanfeng obviously increased his tone, and his face became serious, "In addition to finding the secret about "Zhou Yi", you also have to investigate the truth of last night's tragedy. ”

The six of them nodded their heads one after another, indicating that they had received orders from the prisoner Li Nanfeng.

"Zhou Daowu and Cen Changqian, the chief bookkeeper of the country, are a team, Han Hui, Li Yuze, Su Muqing and Ouyang Tong are a team, and your two teams will investigate separately, this is the emperor's arrangement."

After the six of them heard Li Nanfeng's order, they all clenched their fists to receive the order, and then after seeing that Li Nanfeng had no other instructions, they walked out of the prison room in turn.

When they all walked out of the prison room, Han Hui and Zhou Daowu did not speak, of course, Zhou Daowu did not trouble Han Huo again this time, but since Zhou Daowu became the master of the country, he did not become lost and low-key because of the failure of the Keju Competition, but even more unstoppable, just in order to keep the gambling contract and complete the task assigned to him by Li Shimin, so he did not find trouble with Han Hui in the open.
