Wang Gonggong began to laugh as he spoke, but the old man didn't think it was funny at all, and looked at Wang Tiqian with a calm face.

"You are afraid that others will know your family background and quietly dispose of everyone involved in the treasure hiding, and what's more, in order to satisfy your perverted psychology, you don't even know the location of the treasure yourself, unless, you have collected five sheepskin Diamond Sutras." Wang Tiqian looked at the old man like a nervous patient, shook his head and sneered: "But you never thought that if those scriptures could not be found again, wouldn't the wealth you had worked so hard to earn be buried in the ground forever?" For example, now, there is a copy that has been placed in the emperor's table, but you can never get it back? ”

The old man was silent for a while, and said proudly: "My Wei Zhongxian's things, even if I can't get them myself, others can't even think of it!" ”

Wang Tiqian sneered coldly and asked rhetorically, "What if someone gathers five scriptures?" For example, the Holy One today? ”

The old man sneered and glanced at him, and remained silent.

Wang Tiqian's face changed, and he pointed at him in shock and shouted, "I understand!" You've got a leg up! You're an old immortal! ”

"Presumptuous!" The guards beside the old man shouted angrily.

Wang Tiqian didn't seem to hear this shout, as if he saw a ghost, stared at the old man fiercely, suddenly roared, his hands were like sharp claws, and he pounced on the old man!

Simple! The two long knives were handed straight into Wang Tiqian's lower abdomen, and they were pulled out violently.

Wang Tiqian's face was distorted, staring at the old man with a look of unwillingness and despair on his face......

At this time, the three gates of Pingliang City were closed, and only the west gate was wide open. However, the pedestrians who came in and out were also in a hurry and looked strange. Around the West City Gate, in addition to the patrolling Anton Central Guard soldiers. There was not even a stall or a businessman doing small business, and a small piece of dark red blood could be faintly seen on the blue bricks on the ground along the direction of the street where the west gate entered the city.

The soldiers of Anton's central guard on the castle tower were very nervous, and the palms of the hands holding the weapons were full of sweat. Hu Xiaoyong, the official of Anton's Zhongwei Baihu on the city tower, looked at the two Liang infantry phalanxes standing quietly outside the city gate, and his hands under his waist were tight and loose, and in the cold and windy November weather, Hu Baihu's face was covered with fine beads of sweat.

The two Liang military formations outside the city arrived an hour ago, blocking the direction of entering and exiting the city gate. Lined up in phalanx, stood quietly, neither attacking nor defending.

Hu Baihu knew that this team was waiting for an order from the Xu Mansion on the edge of the North City Gate.

Hu Baihu looked in the direction of Xu's mansion from afar, and his mouth was bitter.

In the wing room of the Xu Mansion, the three most famous doctors in Pingliang City invited them to come over to treat the arrow wounds of the unconscious Pingliang guerrilla general Dai Feng. Under the watchful eyes of Xu Liang, Xing Zhongshan, Wan Wenshan and other Liang generals, the three doctors carefully discussed, and one of the older doctors stepped forward to inform Xu Liang of the results of the diagnosis and treatment.

Lucky in luck! The arrow wound on General Dai's body was only a passing pass from the heart. failed to hurt the heart, but due to the extremely strong penetrating force, General Dai was still injured and unconscious.

After getting the three doctors to once again explain that General Dai was not worried about his life, Xu Liang arranged for someone to send the three doctors back. Leaving Dai Yingying to stare at the bed. Xu Liang beckoned several Liang generals out.

Back in the front yard, the anger that Xu Liang had endured since he entered the mansion finally broke out. Glaring at the head of the Tsing Yi guard who stood in front of him with his head bowed, and the general who had gone to the West City Gate with General Dai roared: "Who did it? Check it out for me! ”

Tietou lowered his head and hurriedly said, "Tsing Yi Wei has rushed to the vicinity of the West City Gate. An undercover investigation is underway. ”

"The city gate is still in the hands of Anton Zhongwei?"

"Yes." Iron Head Road.

"My lord, the two battalions of the last general are just outside the West City Gate. Always ready to retake the West Gate. Xing Zhongshan, deputy general of the Liang army, said in a deep voice.

"My lord, the cavalry battalion of the last general is on standby." Wan Wenshan, the leader of the cavalry battalion, also shouted with a black face.

Xu Liang said in a deep voice: "Go to the West City Gate!" ”

Xu Liang gave an order. The Tsing Yi guard, who had an order, rushed to the Liang army outside the city to convey the order. Then another battalion of infantry was transferred from the main street of the city to the west gate.

When Xu Liang and the others arrived at the gate of the West City, the Liang army had surrounded the entire West City Gate, and the officers and soldiers of the guard post at the gate and on the city tower were so frightened that their faces turned pale with fright, and their legs trembled.

Hu Xiaoyong, the official of Anton Zhongwei Baihu, saw Xu Liang and the others striding with gloomy faces, squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, stepped forward, hugged his fists and saluted: "Hu Xiaoyong of Anton Zhongwei Baihu has seen Lord Xu and the generals. ”

Xu Liang looked Hu Baihu up and down, and sneered again and again.

"I have a long breath, dare to rob the gate of my Liang army."

The fine flesh on Hu Baihu's face twitched for a while, his face turned red, and he said curtly: "I am also acting on orders, and I ask Lord Xu and the generals for forgiveness if I offend." ”

Xu Liang snorted coldly, raised his eyes to look at the guards standing tremblingly in the cold wind on the city, and said, "Did you put down your weapons and tie your hands?" Or do you want us to help you? ”

"Uh...... Yes? Hu Baihu was surprised for a while, seeing that Xu Liang's face was not good, the faces of the generals behind him were gloomy, and the surrounding Liang soldiers glared angrily. Hurriedly took out a warrant from his bosom, rubbed his hands and said, "We are also acting on orders, and there is a warrant from Lord Futai here." Please take a look. ”

Hu Baihu trembled and put the paper warrant in front of Xu Liang.

Xu Liang glanced at it, took it with one hand, sneered, tore it in three or two, and threw his hand above the street, and suddenly raised a burst of confetti behind Xu Liang, one after another, swinging with the cold wind.

"What warrant? I didn't see it. Xu Liang said, then looked at Hu Baihu again, and said faintly: "Hu Baihu, this official is waiting for your reply." ”

That piece of flying confetti shattered the last vestiges of illusion in Hu Baihu's heart. Hu Baihu's face was uncertain, he didn't expect Xu Liang to dare to tear up the warrant of Zhang Fengqi, the prefect of Pingliang, in front of thousands of people, and then said a sentence, the official didn't see it! So scoundrel, so arrogant, so unreasonable! Hu Baihu smiled miserably, untied the matching knife, leaned over and put it on the ground, and said bitterly: "I am willing to lay down my weapons and wait for the fall of my lord." ”

Hu Baihu let go, and the guards above and below the city suddenly felt relieved, and they scrambled to throw away the spears, bows and arrows in their hands, and knelt on the spot in an uproar.

The soldiers of the Liang army rushed forward, collected the weapons all over the ground, and tied up the officers and soldiers of the guard post who were tied up, and escorted them back to the barracks.

The Liang army outside the city began to enter the city, and the Liang army inside the city climbed the tower and resumed the duty of guarding the west city gate.

Xu Liang followed the general guidance of the Pingliang guerrilla army, came to the dark red bloodstain, squatted down and carefully looked at the bloodstain that had already dried.

He pointed to a small alley next to him and said, "My lord, the arrow came from the alley." ”

"What was the situation, you say?" Xu Liang got up and said, his gaze deep into the alley.

Holding his fist at Xu Liang, he recalled: "Yesterday, near the end of the day, the general accompanied General Dai to inspect all places, and was about to go back to the barracks, when he got a report from the guards of the West City Gate, and the commander of the Central Guard of Anton brought four or five hundred people to the same knowledge, and held the warrant of the Governor Zhang, who wanted to take over the city defense of the West City Gate. The guard did not dare to agree, and Pegasus reported to General Dai. The last general followed General Dai to the West City Gate, General Dai did not agree to give up the West City Gate, and Huang Ziren quarreled, the more the quarrel became more and more intense, suddenly I heard a whoosh, and when the last general woke up to the sound of a stray arrow, when he looked at General Dai, General Dai had been hit by an arrow. ”

The general pointed to the alley again and said, "At that time, the last general stood beside General Dai, and following the trend of the arrow, he saw that the arrow was shot from the alley. ”

Xu Liang nodded, and asked Tietou instead: "Is the alley clear?" ”

Tietou said: "Because the alley is close to the city gate and the location is remote, there are not many residents on weekdays. Usually it's empty and gloomy. A hundred steps away from here, there is a teahouse that has long been abandoned, and the people from the detective department went to see it, and it was dusty, but there were traces of new people walking around. The arrow must have been shot from the second floor of the teahouse. ”

Xu Liang and the others walked into the alley, came to the deserted and dilapidated teahouse, and carefully looked at the distance from the teahouse to the place of the incident, and pondered.

Wan Wenshan said in surprise: "This distance is at least one hundred and fifty steps, and if an arrow hits the target from the second floor of the teahouse, the perpetrator must be a marksman." ”

Xu Liang and Xing Zhongshan, Tietou and the others heard this, and their faces became even more difficult to look at. Pingliang is located in the northwest, and there are almost no marksmen who can accurately hit the target from a distance of one hundred and fifty steps!

Hardly, that is, at least one or two can be found. (To be continued......)
