The saber in the hand of the knight on horseback is sharp, and it will not even be hindered when cutting off people's heads. Coming in a hurry, it was just a charge, except for the White Lotus Sect members who were running faster, as long as they stood in the way, they basically became lonely ghosts.

Wei Xing's life was big, and he was pulled by Liu Ermao's henchman to escape from the horse's hooves dangerously, he didn't dare to look behind him, and ran away.

Liu Ermao didn't move, the matter had come to this, and he knew that he couldn't run away.

I have to say that this Datong native Diao Min has a bit of courage, and in the face of the menacing Datong border army, he didn't kneel and beg for mercy like everyone else.

Wei Xing, who thought he could escape, was mercilessly pierced through his body by an arrow, and he fell unwillingly on this hot land that gave birth to him and raised him.

Liu Ermao looked up at the momentum at the front on horseback, and there was only hope in his eyes.

Once upon a time, in the small grass house with four walls, he pulled the terminally ill old mother and said to his mother, the child will one day return to his hometown.

The wet breath exhaled from the nose of the war horse was close in front of him, Liu Ermao held his breath and looked at Zhang Ru on the horse's back with his neck tilted.

Zhang Ru was turning back to give orders at this time, and only after a cadre of border soldiers lifted the wounded Jinyi guard and carried away all the corpses on the car, did he notice that in front of his war horse, there was a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old who was looking at him with his neck up.

"You're not afraid of death?" Zhang Ru asked lightly.

He wasn't very kind, he just thought that this young man was a little peculiar.

Judging from his dress, this young man seems to be just an ordinary person, but there are no more ordinary people in this Xiao Li Village, some are just chaotic people, and the identity of this ordinary person can only be ruled out.

A chaotic people, a member of the White Lotus Sect, was able to maintain this composure after the leader of the incense lord was killed by an arrow, and after so many men knelt on the ground and begged for mercy and still had their heads cut off, it was enough for Zhang Rugao to take a look.

Liu Ermao's tone was normal: "I'm afraid, but I'm afraid or I'm going to die, it's better to pretend not to be afraid." ”

"You think I'm going to let you go?" Zhang Ru sneered.

If it weren't for the fact that this young man was too calm, and there was no sign of knowing martial arts on his body, he would even think that this young man was a master of the rivers and lakes specially selected by the White Lotus Sect to assassinate him.

Liu Ermao took a deep breath and said: "Running is death, not running is death, it's better not to run, leave some male blood." ”

Zhang Ru said: "Listening to the tone of your voice, you shouldn't have too much to do with a thief like the White Lotus Sect." I have to say, young man, you have already brought up my interest. ”

It's no wonder that Zhang Ru has such thoughts, after all, except for those real diehards in the White Lotus Sect, there are very few people who regard death as if they were home.

But the young man in front of him didn't look like a diehard member of the White Lotus Sect no matter how he looked at it.

Liu Ermao smiled bitterly: "It's just to beg for food and live well!" We are not comparable to you dignitaries, we will fight to the death for a bite of food, and you may not be a problem to eat a hundred and eighty taels of silver for a meal. ”

Before Zhang Ru could speak, his subordinate Jinyi Wei had already come to report: "Lord Qiyu, there are a total of five hundred and forty-one thieves in the White Lotus Sect, all of whom have been killed, and more than ten Hui people, all of whom have died. ”

"Notify the government to deal with it and take away the bodies of those dead brothers." Zhang Ru coldly ordered.

A lot of people died this time, and it's not anyone's responsibility, it's his responsibility.

Of course, Tang Long, who didn't dare to say the actual situation, was also responsible.

"If you don't mind, young man, come with me." Zhang Ru turned his horse's head and raised his voice towards Liu Ermao behind him.

Liu Ermao was silent, in this case, the other party was able to leave his life, for him, it was already a blessing in misfortune. No matter how noisy it is, a few Jinyi guards with fire-breathing eyes around this big official probably don't mind giving him a ride with an embroidered spring knife.

Back at the Thousand Households, Tang Long, who had been kneeling for nearly three hours, was still kneeling in place, his legs were completely numb, but he didn't dare to get up.

He knows what happens because of his own selfishness. This consequence is not something that he Tang Long can afford, if something happens to those people, even if Zhang Ru is not to blame in the past, Fan Tong and the others will not let him go.

Zhang Ru rode over, not looking at Tang Long who was kneeling on the ground.

This time, Tang Long did too much, at least now, he couldn't find a reason to convince himself to let Tang Long go.

In order to avoid killing people indiscriminately in anger, Zhang Ru chose to ignore Tang Long's existence.

When he passed by Tang Long's side, the people around Wang Zhou all cast angry glances at him, but Wang Zhou had a somewhat complicated expression.

In the end, this matter has something to do with him.

After entering the Qianhu Institute, he asked Wang Zhou and the injured people to be bandaged by a medical officer, while Zhang Ru himself pulled Fan Tong and Ma Xuan to summon Liu Ermao, whose hands were tied.

"Give me a reason not to kill you." Zhang Ru habitually gets straight to the point.

There were still a lot of things to deal with in the capital, and now he didn't want to waste too much time on this insignificant pawn. If he hadn't instinctively felt that this Liu Ermao was of some use, he would have ordered the killing without hesitation.

Liu Ermao was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "The adult will spare my life, and I can return the adult a clean Datong." ”

This time, without waiting for Zhang Ru to speak, Ma Xuan had already opened his mouth to reprimand: "What a big breath, thousands of people in Datong are not sure that they will give a clean Datong to adults, what are you capable of." ”

Fan Tong also didn't believe it, with his experience, he couldn't see that this outspoken young man had such ability.

Liu Ermao said confidently: "The earthquake in Tai'an destroyed my family, and I came to Datong alone, because of the White Lotus Sect, I have been able to survive so far." But I don't agree with what they think, and I don't like what they do. So I didn't do a lot of the things arranged above, and I didn't bother to do them.

But I have a list of the various incense masters and hall masters in Datong, including the list of border generals and government officials who have dealings with them. Even, I can tell the adults who is in charge of the White Lotus Sect now, and where that person is now. ”

Zhang Ru said with a smile: "It seems that I heard that the White Lotus Sect's methods of dealing with traitors are not simple, you dare to tell me so, you are not afraid that the White Lotus Sect will take your life if it goes out?" ”

Liu Ermao said indifferently: "When a man is alive, he is inherently dead, and the difference is only the severity of death." There is no way in the court, and dying for the court is as light as a feather, and there is a way in the court, and dying for the court is heavier than Mount Tai. If the person in front of him today is not Lord Zhang, the governor of the Nine Sides, or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who has the name of benevolence and filial piety, or if he chops up someone Liu and feeds it to the dog, someone Liu will not spit out half a word. Although Mr. Zhang's actions were a little hasty and did not touch the fundamentals, it was the first time in Liu's life that he saw people have ideas to eliminate malpractices. If the adults don't dislike it, Liu Ermao is willing to be the pawn of the adults, I don't know if the adults dare to let it go? ”

Fan Tong and Ma Xuan glanced at each other with strange expressions, and they all turned their eyes to Zhang Ru.

Zhang Ru thought about Liu Ermao's words in his mind, but his thoughts had already flown far away.

He knows how big his ideals are and how much strength he needs to make them happen. Obviously, Liu Ermao, a person whose ideas are not complicated, is a good candidate. But he has a lot to think about, and he is surrounded by countless enemies, and no one knows if these enemies are now his friends.

He couldn't trust a person who was honest right away, and he couldn't get that person to carry out his ideals.

Liu Ermao's categorical words interrupted Zhang Ru's contemplation: "The knife is in the adult's hand, the head is on Liu's neck, the adult doesn't believe it, just take the two catties of heads." ”

Zhang Ru stood up suddenly, and then laughed: "The 1.8 million people in Shuntian Mansion say that I, Zhang Ru, am a bold thief, and today, I finally met someone who is bolder than me." Since you don't even want your head, what if I Zhang Wenxuan believes you! Fan Tong, call that guy Tang Long in. ”

It didn't take long for Fan Tong to come in with Tang Long, whose legs were paralyzed.

Zhang Ru stared at Tang Long with gloomy eyes, and said for a while before he said: "Tang Long, for his own selfishness, he did not hesitate to let dozens of brothers in Beizhen Fusi die, your little abacus is exquisite enough!" ”

Tang Long's legs were already weak, and after hearing this, he was even more distraught, and he knelt down again with a plop: "The last general is guilty, if you want to kill or chop, please give an order!" ”

From the expression on his face, it could be seen that he really had the will to die.

Wang Zhou is a person from Fusi in Beizhen, and it is natural for him to look down on Tang Long, but Tang Long can't stand it, so he didn't tell Wang Zhou the actual situation on Xiao Li Zhuang's side.

There is only one purpose, not to want Wang Zhou to die, but to teach Wang Zhou some lessons. Unexpectedly, that bold White Lotus Sect really dared to besiege and kill dozens of brocade guards.

I don't know when, Wang Zhou, who had bandaged his wounds, had already appeared outside the door, looking at Tang Long with complicated eyes.

Zhang Ru didn't say anything, just looked at Tang Long on the ground and said, "You really know what's wrong?" ”

Tang Long said word by word: "Tang Long knew his mistake, but he just caused a big disaster, and he knew that the death penalty was inevitable, so he only asked the adults to blame Tang Long for the sake of the brothers of the Datong Thousand Households. ”

Zhang Ru glanced at Wang Zhou and said lightly: "I don't care about this matter, Wang Zhou makes his own decision."

Tang Long looked back, only to find that Wang Zhou was behind him.

Wang Zhou raised his foot and aimed it at his back, and said fiercely: "This kick is for those dead brothers." It's too cheap to kill you, and those dead brothers won't be blind under Jiuquan. I want you to live, and if you ride a brother to death, you will use a thousand and ten thousand heads of the White Lotus Sect to pay tribute. I want you to remember it for the rest of your life, because of your selfishness, fifty-seven brothers died in Xiaolizhuang. ”

Wang Zhou wanted to kill Tang Long, but he could see from Zhang Ru's eyes that the adults didn't want to kill, so he forcibly resisted the killing intent.

Tang Long cried bitterly, but Zhang Ru didn't give him time to cry: "Give the two of you three months, and you give me a clean Datong." Tomorrow I will return to Beijing, and in three months I will come to see your results. Tang Long, remember, there are fifty-seven brothers watching you in Xiao Li Zhuang. ”
