At that time, the knife was only 0.01 centimeters away from Wang Wheat. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"A good man spare......s his life," Wang Mai shuddered.

"Don't move......," a voice came from behind him, "if you don't want to die, do as I say." ”

"Okay, good ......" As he spoke, he felt his hands clamped tightly, and something had wrapped his wrists tightly.

When I entered the house, I found that Liang San had been tied into a zongzi, and he was also wearing a linen cloth around his mouth, and the whole person was shrunk in the corner, his face was full of panic.

"Hmm......" Seeing that Wang Mai was also tied, Liang San let out a low whimper.

"Don't cry." The voice behind him commanded.

Liang San didn't dare to speak out when he heard this, but his two watery eyes kept crying.

The man pushed Wang Mai to Liang San's side: "Squat down, don't make a sound." ”

Wang Mai tried to calm down and looked up at this uninvited guest. The man looked to be very old, about the same age as himself, and although his clothes looked a little untidy, they were quite gorgeous, and he was tearing at the clothes on the table with a silver dagger in his hand.

"Hiss......" Wang Mai was a little distressed when he saw his regular clothes being destroyed like this, although he didn't like this color very much.

Looking at the young man who was walking towards him step by step with a strip of cloth, Wang Mai finally understood what he wanted to do: "Wait, I have something to say." ”

The man did not listen to him, but put the strip of cloth directly behind his head.

"Dugu Xiude!"

This finally worked, and the man stopped and looked at him with a frown: "What do you want to say?" ”

"I can help you!" Wang Mai came out, "You can also see that I am also an official in Luoyang." ”

"Why should I trust you?" Dugu Xiude glared at Wang Mai with fierce eyes, "Now I am the only one left in my Dugu family in Luoyang City, just because I am gullible. ”

"You have no choice, even if you kill me, you won't be able to escape from Luoyang. When I came back just now, I was subjected to no less than ten interrogations in just one short journey. Wang Mai said coldly.

Dugu Xiude lowered his head, and there was no expression on his face.

"Knock knock......" There was a rapid knock outside the door.

"Let me go, I'll send them away." Wang Mai straightened up, "You only have one chance, either believe in me or die." ”

"Good!" Dugu Xiude walked behind Wang Mai and cut the rope, "I'm hiding behind the door, if you dare to make any changes, I'll be the first to kill you!" ”

The two walked to the gate of the courtyard one after the other, and Wang Mai took a deep breath and opened the door.

"In the name of Wang Taiwei, we will arrest the traitor Dugu Xiude, and we will search this place, and idle people must not hinder it." Outside the door stood two soldiers with torches.

"Wait!" Wang Mai stopped the two, "I am an official of the imperial court, how can you easily search, can you have the approval of the third division?" ”

"This ......," the two looked at each other, "no." However, Wang Taiwei has an order, and we must search the whole city's mansions, no matter whether the owner is a common person, a suitable official or noble, we must not miss it, and I hope that the officials will forgive me. ”

"Since it is the order of the prince prince, then the edict of the prince will be shown to me." Wang Mai asked.

"We just do what we are told, and we don't have instructions." The two of them looked embarrassed.

"Since there is no edict, how can I believe that it is Wang Taiwei who wants you to search my house, although my courtyard is not big, but there are a lot of jars and jars in it, if it is broken, will you pay or Wang Taiwei will pay?" Wang Mai questioned aggressively.

The two were about to say more, but a familiar voice came into Wang Mai's ears.

"What happened?"

"Brother Renze!" The person who came was Wang Renze, who had not been seen for a long time.

"It turned out to be Brother Kaixian." Wang Ren saw Wang Mai walking over in three steps and two steps, followed by a burly figure, who was also an acquaintance, Shan Xiongxin.

"Second Brother Shan." And he saluted them again.

The two soldiers told Wang Renze about the situation 1510 next to him, and Wang Renze nodded while listening.

Wang Mai's mind changed: "I thought it was just a few rude soldiers acting recklessly, I don't want it to be really Captain Wang's order, since this is the case, I don't want to embarrass you, Brother Ren is light." After saying this, Wang Mai obviously felt that the figure behind the door moved, and he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.

Wang Ren laughed loudly: "If it is someone else, I am really welcome, after you first entered Luoyang, you have no relatives and no reason with the Dugu family, there is absolutely no possibility of shielding them, don't search." After saying that, he waved his hand and asked the two soldiers to search elsewhere.

"Brother Ren Ze must have worked hard for a long time, why don't you go into the house and drink a cup of water to warm up?" As soon as Wang Mai finished saying this, the wheezing sound behind the door suddenly became much heavier.

Wang Ren waved his hand: "No need. The matter is urgent, and when I have time, I invite you to come to my house to talk about it. As he spoke, he turned around and beckoned Shan Xiongxin beside him to walk away.

"Goodbye!" Wang Mai waved his hand to the two, but saw Shan Xiongxin looking back at him meaningfully.

"Whew!" As soon as he closed the door, Wang Mai leaned weakly behind the door and let out a sigh, his palms were full of sweat.

Dugu Xiude next to him also lowered the short sword he had been holding tightly, and looked at Wang Mai with strange eyes.

"Don't look at it, enter the house, I'm scared to death if I wasn't killed by you." Wang Mai struggled to move his trembling legs and walked into the house.

"Why are you helping me?" As soon as he entered the house, Dugu Xiude couldn't help but ask him.

Wang Mai picked up the teapot on the table, regardless of whether it was hot or cold, and poured it into his mouth one by one, until he drank all the pot of water, and then he calmed down his trembling body.

"You think I want to help you? Don't think that being handsome makes you self-righteous. Although Dugu Xiude is a little embarrassed now, whether it is his appearance or temperament, he is definitely a first-class good boy, which is comparable to those cream students on TV. Wang Mai sighed, he didn't expect that he still had no advantage in his appearance when he returned to ancient times.

"Handsome?"

"It's just handsome......" Wang Mai secretly scolded the turtle, and then his heart was a little balanced, "Actually, I lied to you when I said I wanted to help you at the beginning, this is called a delaying tactic." But just now, I haven't found a suitable opportunity, and I haven't been able to escape under your sword, so I can only drag it out. Fortunately, your life is big, and Wang Ren is in charge of this piece, if you change to someone else, it is estimated that you have been cut into ten or eight pieces by now, and you will have to affect me. ”

"You ......" Dugu Xiude was furious when he heard what happened.

"Put the sword down, now you and I are grasshoppers on a rope, I just can't help you, if someone finds you here with me, I will be miserable by you." Wang Mai said helplessly.

"Humph!" Dugu Xiude was relieved when he heard this, and sat opposite Wang Mai, "How are you going to help me, now the whole Luoyang City is full of soldiers who are arresting me, and I am afraid that you will not be able to do it with this small official with sesame mung beans." ”

This person is really poisonous, but seeing that his father and uncle have been killed, he doesn't care about him.

"Someone who can help you will come in a moment." Wang Mai got up and untied Liang San and helped him dry his tears.

"Who?"

"Shan Xiongxin," Wang Mai touched Liang San's hair, signaling him not to be afraid, "He has discovered the strangeness here just now, and he must be coming soon, I have a good relationship with him." ”

"Him?" Dugu Xiude frowned, "He's just an empty general with no power or power, why should I trust you?" ”

Wang Mai sighed: "You said that you are such a big man, you don't have a brain just by growing tall," shook his head, "Think about it, I have already put on a posture in front of Wang Renze just now that I didn't harbor the fugitives." What would he think if he handed you over again? Will he give me a promotion and reward me with money? He will only suspect that I did not report what I just learned and that I had colluded with you a long time ago. Why should I bring the evil water to myself, it is only right to send you away sooner. ”

Dugu Xiude nodded when he heard this: "There is still some truth in what you said. It's just that can this single Xiongxin be trusted? ”

"Don't worry!" Wang Mai patted his chest, "He is much more reliable than me, you go and inquire, Second Brother Shan is the most righteous, once he is entrusted by others, he will definitely be loyal." ”

"That's ......" Dugu Xiude lowered his head, "Then I'll believe you once, it's a big deal to follow my uncle and father and get together with them in Huangquan." ”

"You'd better be in a hurry to get together with them in a few decades." Wang Mai lifted the kettle with the mist rising on the stove and poured him a cup of boiling water, "It is estimated that Luoyang City will not be easy to enter and exit in a short period of time, I am not safe here after all, it seems that Second Brother Shan has won Wang Shichong's trust, and he will be safe there." After a while, when the storm has passed, it would be better for you to go out of the city again. By the way, what did you Dugu do to get to such a point? ”

"It's all to blame for my father and uncle's negligence for a while...... Dugu Xiude told the whole story with a sad face.

Dugu Xiude's uncle Dugu Wu is the head of the Ma Army and is quite trusted by Wang Shichong. Dugu Xiude's father, Si Li's doctor, Dugu Ji, saw that Wang Shichong was not the master, so he persuaded Tang brother Dugu Wudu to take advantage of the night to transfer troops to Luoyang to carry out a mutiny to kill Wang Shichong and surrender to Tang, and Dugu Wu obeyed this plan. But the matter was unfortunately leaked, and Wang Shichong took the lead and executed all the people involved in the incident on the spot.

Dugu Xiude had a big life, he happened to be not at home when the incident happened, and after hearing the news, he fled all the way in a panic, and finally happened to escape to Wang Mai's yard, which temporarily saved his life.

Wang Mai sighed when he heard this, Wang Shichong can't be blamed for the fate of these people who are in a different place, if they really let them do it, Wang Shichong's family may end up with the same ending. Murderers are always killed, and it has been the case since ancient times.

"Wang Shichong, this dog thief! My Dugu family is not finished with him, and sooner or later one day I will cut off his head with my own hands to commemorate my deceased father! Dugu Xiude clenched his fists and said.

Listening to the sound of the watch outside the alley, the two realized that it was already the second watch.

"Knock knock." There was a knock at the door.

The two glanced at each other, Wang Mai stood up and said to Dugu Xiude: "You hide in the house first, and I'll go see if it's Second Brother Shan." ”
