Chapter 330: You Go First
In the middle of the night, under the bright moonlight, the dark shadows in the house were crowded, and from time to time someone disappeared into the room, and soon the candlelight was lit, and soon the figure came outside the house, hunched over quickly, sneaking on the side of the house, tiptoeing around. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
I don't know when, in the hall of the house, the light is permeated, the atmosphere is so tense, the surroundings are so quiet, only the sound of footsteps is echoing. Huo Xiong paced back and forth, waiting, and from time to time someone walked in and reported the situation directly.
"Report to the head of the regiment, those subordinates are all settled, knocked unconscious in the room, and just in case, all of them are tied up with sheets and tied to some pillars."
The same situation is still continuing, constantly deducing, Huo Xiong walked slowly, although his face was very calm, but it was difficult to hide his sense of nervousness, after all, this trip was the first time he went deep into the mansion to loot, unlike in the past, it was all under the blue sky and white sun, colliding with the bandits head-on, fighting.
At this moment, this night's raiding trip not only tested the hearts of Huo Xiong and the others, but all actions had to be carried out in silence, as far as possible to make no noise, wake up the surrounding residents, and not arouse their suspicions.
Therefore, Huo Xiong and the others acted extremely carefully and cautiously, and when they encountered people in the courtyard, no matter what they were, they were first stuffy sticks, and they were stunned, and they basically couldn't see an action team of two or three people, at least a team of four people.
Half an hour later, it was already the second half of the night, Huo Xiong and Zhang Sanfen sat on the upper seat around them, with different expressions, each thinking about something, on both sides stood with various subordinates, and some guarded in other places, or the gate, or the backyard, or in the corridor......
At this time, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside, and then several figures walked in. I saw a few of Huo Xiong's subordinates dragging the two of them in, and as soon as they stood still, they casually threw them not far in front of Huo Xiong: "Big brother, the head of the family has brought, the two are the old and the young, a father and son." ”
Huo Xiong slowly stood up, walked forward, stopped in front of a disheveled man, slowly squatted down, as if he had seen an acquaintance, patted the man's shoulder, and asked, "Hey, do you still know me?" ”
The man raised his head, brushed away his unkempt hair, opened his sleepy eyes, and subconsciously asked, "Who are you?" In the middle of the night, do you know where this is? Dare to break into our Qin Mansion to spread wilderness, don't you want to ......"
The man was stunned, looked at Huo Xiong directly, stunned, and muttered, "You're not..."
"Young Master Qin, yes, it's me, we met in the morning, and we also had a battle in the Chunnuan Pavilion, did you forget it in such a short time? No way? ”
Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhang San on the side became interested and curious. Huo Xiong still understands that it is impossible for there to be acquaintances in the whole of Jiangxi, let alone in this small Gan County. Then he stood up, walked a few steps quickly, and asked lightly, "Boss Huo, do you know this family?" ”
"Lao Zhang, I don't know this family, I just know this one. Not only do I know it, but you are also familiar with it, if you don't believe it, you can take a look. Huo Xiong turned around, beckoned to Zhang San, and said so.
After approaching, with the help of a fairly good light, he took a closer look, revealing a sudden look, and said loudly: "Isn't this the beast, the eldest prince of Qin Shou?" Who should I be, it's really a narrow road, and the first business is actually your family! ”
However, as soon as Zhang San finished speaking, Huo Xiong stood up suddenly, shook his somewhat numb legs, and took the stubble disapprerovingly: "What kind of road is narrow?" I robbed the Qin family, and I had already thought about it. Otherwise, as soon as this kid leaves, why should I send someone to follow him? ”
As he spoke, Huo Xiong had already stepped in front of the other person, kicked it, and said casually: "Old guy, you are Qin Shou's Laozi, right?" ”
"Yes, yes, Xiao Ke is, if the dog has anything to offend, I hope that Uncle Haihan will let us two go once, and I will never dare again, I must be grateful!"
"Yes, your son has indeed sinned against me, and I have spent 100,000 taels of silver in vain. If it weren't for him, maybe tonight, I would be able to kiss Xiangze with Miss Qiao'er, and they all blame your son, making me empty, you say, how to compensate me for my losses? ”
"How can you be like this, it's obvious that you hurt me......" Hearing this, Qin Shou immediately argued, but was stopped by his father again.
"What do you say, bastard? Where is there a place for you to speak? This good man says it's your fault if it's your fault, don't quibble! A good man can make our father and son lose money, it's a great kindness, don't shout here, stay honest with me! ”
Immediately, Qin Shou was like a deflated balloon, wilting. Then, Father Qin resignedly said: "This good man, it is all my son's fault, which caused you to lose 100,000 taels of silver. As the saying goes, the son pays the debt to the father, the family is unfortunate, there is such a thing that is not a thing, Xiao Ke is willing to accompany you to the loss of 100,000 taels, I don't know what to do with the good man's intentions? Can this be revealed? ”
"One hundred thousand taels? Master Qin, do you think 100,000 taels can settle this matter? Is it worth my actions to bring so many people to bother me late at night? Quell the anger in my chest? ”
"Let me tell you, Old Man Qin, it's not easy to have a son at such an age, and I don't want to cut off the incense of your old Qin family, and I am not the one who does the errand of the heir of the people. I might as well give you a reason, and make it clear that without 200,000 taels of silver, this matter will not be over! ”
Master Qin's body trembled, and he said tremblingly: "Good man, Gan County is a small county town, and our Qin family is only stronger than those landlords' families, even if all the real estate and land are sold, they can't take out 200,000 taels of silver for a while, and I hope the good man will forgive me?" ”
Huo Xiong still looked like a hanger, walking lazily, ignoring Old Man Qin's pleading, and knowing that what he said should be the truth, he just said: "I don't care about this, anyway, I only recognize money, the deadline is before dawn, and I must be allowed to see 200,000 taels of silver." If the results are not satisfactory, don't blame me for being vicious and making some kind of slaughter! ”
Qin Shou was paralyzed there, muttering weakly. The old man's face was also pale, and his lips trembled. Without leaving too much time for the two of them, Huo Xiong immediately ordered to the two subordinates: "You and you, each with one person, go to each room and find out all the cash, silver tickets, and valuable things. If the two of them don't cooperate honestly, they don't need me to teach, they know what to do, right? ”
"Yes, boss, we know what to do, just like those who used to be treated, if they are not honest, they will be killed, it's a big deal that the brothers search one place after another!"
After the Qin family's father and son were taken out, Zhang San came to Huo Xiong's approach and asked a little tentatively: "Leader, do you really plan to ask this father and son for 200,000 taels of silver?" Jiangxi, a poor and remote place, I know very well that being able to take out 100,000 taels of silver is already the limit. If you want to get 200,000 taels, unless you give them enough time to sell some real estate and land. ”
Huo Xiong smiled indifferently and said softly: "Zhang San, you are still a bandit, why don't you understand this?" Robbery and kidnapping, what you do is to make money on the spot, asking for a sky-high price, what do you do with so much? ”
Zhang San showed embarrassment, smiled brightly, and then said: "If this old boy really has less than 200,000 taels of silver, do you really plan to destroy them all over the house and not let any of them go?" ”
"Lao Zhang, are these days too stable? Are you having too much comfort? is so soft-hearted, not like the thief who robbed the house?! ”
Zhang Sangang wanted to say something, but Huo Xiong took the lead.
"There are dozens of people in this family, and I, Huo Xiong, am not a butcher? Even if I am brave and ruthless, it is impossible for me to kill these powerless people, not to mention that most of them are some maids, and they are not my mortal enemies, so I have to kill them. ”
"Don't worry, I won't mess around, just grab things and get more silver for our Kongtong Mountain base area. Indiscriminate killing will only affect the young master's future feats and the reputation of dominating the world, I know the scale and understand the advance and retreat. ”
Seeing that Huo Xiong said so seriously, Zhang San suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he once went up the mountain and fell into the grass, he Zhang San was also born in poverty, and he knew the situation of the commoners and what kind of king he wanted.
When Yang Lin and Zhang San put their hearts in their hearts, after saying those great ambitions, he knew that the young master not only wanted the development and growth of the Kongtong Army and the gradual extension of the Kongtong Mountain base area, but also had a good reputation to prepare for the future fight against the world.
Even if it was a recent decision, when discussing good things with Huo Xiong, when raiding houses and houses, it was based on the principle of less harm to people, robbing the homes of rich businessmen and tycoons, and exploiting the peasants and landlords, those are the main targets and the basic norms for disrupting social order.
I don't know when, the courtyard outside the hall door is full of large and small boxes, and there are fewer and fewer stars in the sky, and the Yang Mansion has been controlled by Huo Xiong and his party strongmen, firmly holding the control.
After not sleeping all night, Huo Xiong had no sleep, his face was excited, and he was very excited. At this time, Huo Xiong stood in the living room, his body stood straight, looked at several subordinates in front of him, and solemnly ordered: "Now, a few of you immediately return to the inn, call all the brothers there here, and bring the horses to enter through the back door!" ”
"A few of you, go find out all the carriages in the Yang Mansion, bring all the valuable things in the yard, and load them on the carriages. As soon as the morning dawned, everyone drove the carriage to the south gate, went out of the city, and returned to Kongtong Mountain, our station. ”
The crowd dispersed, each carrying out the corresponding orders, but Huo Xiong walked out of the door, ready to take a look around to see what this family of the richest man in Gan County looked like?
The moon had set, the stars had receded, the sun had not yet risen, and when the sky was dark, at the back door of the Yang Mansion, in the uninhabited alley, five large carriages were parked there, and the others were horses, each sitting one person.
At this time, at the back of the carriage, at the door, Huo Xiong and Zhang San stood opposite each other. Zhang San looked hesitant and asked again and again: "Commander, are you really not going with us?" What else are you going to do? If the matter of Yang's Mansion is discovered, the longer it drags on, and the longer you stay in the city, the more dangerous it will be? ”
"Lao Zhang, don't worry, the front door of the Yang Mansion has been locked, everyone is tied up by us, and there are things in their mouths, and no one will find out for a while. You go first, I won't be in the city for long, and then I'll come!" ”
However, Huo Xiong's confession did not reassure Zhang San, and his heart was still very heavy, and he wanted to ask clearly, why didn't Huo Xiong leave together? Zhang San believes that if something unexpected happens, as long as these people are together, they can leave leisurely, return on horseback, and return to Kongtong Mountain.
"Okay, Lao Zhang, hurry up early, the city gate is about to open. It's not like you, I'm riding a horse, I can go at any time, no one can stop me, you have to escort these things back to Kongtong Mountain, the speed is much slower, I can catch up soon. ”
At this moment, Zhang San knew that the regiment commander's determination had been made, and it was useless to say more, it would only delay more time, and after figuring it out, he no longer insisted, and said solemnly: "Regiment leader, although I don't know if you have anything important to do, do you have to do it at this time?" However, let's say that at sunrise, for the sake of safety, you must go out of Ganxian County! ”
Huo Xiong patted Zhang San on the shoulder, although he didn't agree, he could be regarded as acquiescing: "Okay, I know, you guys go quickly, don't grind." Saying so much will only delay my time! ”
Without saying a word, Zhang San took a leap, turned over and jumped on horseback, rode on horseback, rode his horse and whipped up, walked at the front of the team, and headed towards the south city gate.
Seeing Zhang San and his party disappear at the mouth of the alley, Huo Xiong said to one of the four subordinates: "Go, lock this door from the inside, and then climb over the wall, and then you go to a place with me!" ”
"Yes, Captain!"
Soon, the back door was locked tightly, and the soldier jumped off one side of the wall. Then, Huo Xiong looked at the gray sky, his face was solemn, and he muttered to himself: "Are you willing to go with me?" ”
"Commander, Master Zhang has been gone for a while, should we leave too?"
As soon as one of them finished reminding, Huo Xiong withdrew his gaze, revealing a resolute look and no regrets, and while walking towards the horse, he ordered: "Follow me~!" ”
simply turned over and got on the horse, waved the whip vigorously, and shouted: "Drive~Drive!" ”
Immediately, five majestic horses turned into phantoms like five black whirlwinds, galloped away, ran in opposite directions, disappeared into the alley, and appeared on the street.
The autumn morning made the street a lot bleak, and the pedestrians were even less pitiful. Seeing this situation, Huo Xiong and the others couldn't help but speed up a little, especially Huo Xiong, who was in the lead, and the sound of the wind shouting by made his sense of anticipation more and more obvious and intense.
Knock knock!
There was a loud knock at the door, so abrupt on this somewhat cold morning, that panicked footsteps rang out in the room, followed by whining.
"Who, anxious to be reincarnated? I don't know that Chun Nuan Pavilion doesn't pick up guests in the morning? This early in the morning, I thought about ......"
As soon as the sleepy-eyed turtle slave opened the door, he was rubbing his eyes, when a cold wind hit, and suddenly a spirit was excited, and he was much more energetic, and he saw the person in front of him clearly, and the person who knocked on the door immediately shut up, swallowed all the remaining words, and muttered: "You are ......"
