Lei Qizhi's face was like iron, and he was silent. Zhu Shi was in a cold sweat all over his body, and scolded Chen An's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, seeing that Chen An had cut a small hole in Liu Qing's throat again, Liu Qing had already screamed like a pig, and he was about to kneel down as soon as he gritted his teeth, and his armpit suddenly stagnated, and it turned out that Lei Qizhi stretched out his hand and stopped him abruptly.

"My soldiers of the Longxi Army, how can you be humiliated at will? Lao Tzu sacrificed this team leader, and he can't let you do whatever you want! Let me tell you again, if you don't tie your hands and catch it, then the jade will be shattered! ”

Lei Qi pointed for tat and shouted. He knew that if Zhu Shichang was allowed to kneel, then all the morale would plummet on the spot, and Chen An further made a request for non-points, but he was afraid that most of them would succeed. So at this juncture, it is better to really give up Liu Qing than to retreat.

Zhu Shi wiped the sweat from his head and cast a grateful glance at Lei Qizhi. Over there, Liu Qing begged for mercy in horror, and he couldn't stand anymore.

Lei Qizhi turned a deaf ear, raised the big knife and pressed Chen An directly: "If you kill Liu Qing, you will immediately have no reliance in your hands, and I will immediately command the soldiers and stab you to death." I'm afraid that a person like you, who thinks very highly of himself, how can he be willing to exchange his life with ordinary people? ”

Chen An snorted coldly, and then didn't answer, he looked left and right vigilantly, and suddenly began to strangle Liu Qing and slowly retreat to the city tower. Lei Qizhi followed the rhythm of his footsteps, always pressing him three steps away.

"Get out of here!"

With Chen An's continuous shouting, the Longxi soldiers behind him slowly dispersed, Chen An dragged Liu Qing and retreated to the edge of the city wall step by step, his back was already tightly attached to the cold wall tiles, and he had no way to retreat.

Lei Qizhi led a group of soldiers and surrounded Chen An in a fan shape. Downstairs, more footsteps of the Longxi army were heard, the reinforcements had arrived, and Chen An began to sweat and become impatient.

"Chen An! Do you dare to fight me alone? If you win me, I will let you go, and if you are a hero, come over! Lei Qizhi shouted sharply, trying his best to delay time and distract Chen An's mind, so as to seize some opportunities.

Chen An didn't answer, but he took out a bundle of rope from his arms, he changed the dagger to his left hand, the tip of the knife was still pointed inward at Liu Qing, but his right hand quickly knotted the rope, and then put it on Liu Qing's head and put it on Liu Qing's neck.

Everyone didn't know why, and even Lei Qizhi was slightly stunned. At this dazzling moment, Chen An suddenly jumped backwards, and the whole person jumped out of the high city wall!

With an exclamation, Chen An disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.

The noose around Liu Qing's neck was immediately tightened, and the person was strangled so that his eyes rolled white. At the moment of life and death, Liu Qing hurriedly turned around, reflexively grabbed the rope with both hands and pulled it in desperately, trying his best to offset the momentum of Chen An's fall. If it weren't for this, even if Liu Qing was not strangled to death by the rope noose, he would have been taken by Chen An to fall down the city tower and fall to his death. So with the help of this resistance, Chen An pulled the rope with both arms outside the ten-meter-high majestic city wall, and quickly swung down like a dexterous old ape.

Lei Qizhi's heart sank, and he stepped forward quickly, cutting the straight rope without having time to think about it. As Liu Qing fell to the ground suddenly, there was a muffled sound of flesh falling to the ground and screams from the city. Lei Qizhi rushed to the side of the city wall and looked down in a hurry, and could vaguely see that Chen An had fallen to the ground, and his life and death were unknown.

Lei Qizhi shouted: "Open the city gate quickly and arrest it on the spot!" He hurriedly rushed downstairs, and when he went up and down the west city gate, he was in a hurry, and the sky was boiling.

The gates of the city rumbled open, and countless people rushed out with torches and swords and guns in hand. Lei Qizhi rushed to the front and back feet, but what he saw in amazement was a group of soldiers looking at each other, and a pool of blood on the ground, Chen An had long since disappeared.

A large soft belly white finally appeared in the east, and a faint dawn moon hung in the sky that had lost its light, and the dawn gradually strengthened, and the outline of all things was gradually revealed. After a night of panic and unspeakable turmoil, Xiangwu City seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief in the morning light. On the street, more and more doors and windows were slowly opened, men, women and children quietly stretched out their heads to watch, the obvious increase in the number of patrol soldiers, in addition to making people feel a little more reliable, but also made people feel a little uneasy out of thin air, for last night's riot, but also added a lot of fear.

"I have carefully applied the antiseptic medicine, and there is no major problem for the time being, but I should pay attention to rest. Although the lord's wound is not long, it is very deep, almost hurting the bone, in addition, the lord is depressed and angry, a little restless, and he needs to be comforted and counseled emotionally. You can go and visit, not too long—in short, the lord still needs to recuperate more and not move. ”

After giving the salute, Lang Zhong stroked his beard, sighed and took the medicine box and left. Seven or eight principal officials of Longxi hurriedly walked to the back of the mansion, and were about to send a report in, when they heard Gao Yue's angry voice from the inner room from a distance, followed by a crisp bang, obviously something was smashed to the ground.

Everyone stopped in amazement and looked at each other. Han Yong glanced at Yang Ke twice, turned his head and said in a deep voice to everyone: "The lord is depressed and angry, and it is normal to have a little gaffe, I must not lose my sense of proportion as a subordinate, but I know it." Everyone even claimed that it was, and when they got closer, Han Yong and Yang Ke stubbornly asked to see him outside the door, and only after a moment did he hear Gao Yue come in in a low voice.

When everyone entered the room, they looked at Gao Yue half-leaning on the couch, his pale face with some sickly flushing, and he was expressionless. The scraps of cups scattered on the ground, Mrs. Ah Chi and the maid Luo Mei were squatting to pick them up. Han Yong hurriedly took two steps forward, and also leaned down to pick it up, Yang Ke also hurriedly cleaned up, Ah Chi whispered to dissuade, Han Yong didn't dare to look up, just thanked Ah Chi for his kindness, but his hand didn't stop.

Gao Yue suddenly stood up and patted the edge of the bed and became angry: "A good man, but he came to do such a trivial matter for a woman, is it a joke to see me?" Get out of here! ”

Miao Lan was so frightened that he got up and bowed to withdraw. Wang Kai's face was solemn, and when he saw that everyone froze and lowered their heads, they didn't move, so he quietly grabbed Miao Lan.

Ah Chi also stood up, stunned, turned around and slowly walked to the bed, bent down and tucked the edge of Gao Yue's futon again, her eyes began to flush, and she said in a low voice: "Husband, everyone is kind enough to come to visit you, don't do this." Gao Yue glanced at her, closed his eyes and sulked silently.

Luomei quickly picked up all the debris on the ground and retreated. Everyone in the room was at a loss, but Han Yong stepped forward and said calmly: "A good man, he can also stretch and bend." A little setback, the lord doesn't have to be so angry. ”

Yang Ke said softly: "Lord, this time it was Shangqi who used a despicable trick, we were caught off guard, please punish the lord heavily." It's just that at present, the countless eyes of both the enemy and us are focused on the lord, and the lord must cheer up and recover as soon as possible, so as to lead us to plan a counterattack. It must be known that the light of the candle cannot compete with the sun and the moon, and the lord must not be arrogant. ”

Gao Yue was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and opened his eyes.

"I am very touched by the concern of my colleagues. There are many gaffes, you Haihan will go back. ”

Everyone waved their hands in thanks, and Miao Lan quietly wiped the sweat on his head behind the people.

"Brother Han said that I am angry, I don't hide it, it's true." In Gao Yue's tired voice, there was still an indignation that could not be concealed, "Chen An thief, I treat him as a gentleman, but he repays him with a bad loss!" Moreover, if it weren't for my drunkenness and inability to control myself, and I would have hurt the hands of such young people, and even ruined my reputation in the hands of others, every time I think of this, I can't help myself, and I can't help it, and I can't wait to use this fang to relieve the hatred in my heart! ”

Seeing that Gao Yue was finally willing to speak normally, and his emotions were also released, Ah Chi relaxed a little, and whispered a few words of comfort in Gao Yue's ear, Gao Yue reluctantly smiled and shook her hand to apologize, Ah Chi turned around and went out to beckon Luo Mei to make hot water for everyone, Han Yong and the others took the cup and thanked them humbly. Ah Chi knew that these people had important matters to discuss, so he took Luomei out of the house and gently closed the door.

The air inside the room was a little silent again. At this time, even Gu Siduo, who usually likes to talk nonsense, hung his head and stood solemnly, not daring to grandstand. Everyone is still very afraid in their hearts, the enemy sneak attack at night is nothing, the key is that Gao Yue almost has three long and two short, if the backbone is gone, then the current good situation in Longxi will eventually fall apart due to the leaderless dragons, and all of them will be like floating weeds, and they don't know what to do.

After a moment of silence, Lei Qizhi suddenly stepped forward and knelt down and said: "The subordinates are incompetent, so that the thief escaped in front of him, and the subordinates are unable to escape in front of him, and he is willing to accept all the punishments of the lord." ”
