Tan Zhicheng died like this.

The officers and men of the patrol battalion had stopped shooting arrows, and the officers and men of the two teams rushed into the Tiger Gang compound under the leadership of General Xing and covered up the remaining fleeing Tigers.

In fact, there were less than 200 people left behind in the headquarters of the LTTE, and a number of them were killed in the front yard, and even the leading boss Uncle Tan and several important stewards died.

Xing Zhongshan led the team to carefully search for half an hour, concentrated the few dozen remaining members of the Tigers and some female dependents in the courtyard, and sent people out to report it.

Xu Liang listened to the soldier's report and nodded slightly at a white-faced soldier on the side.

The soldier's face flushed with excitement, dancing with his orchid fingers, and shouted in a coquettish voice: "Don't worry, my subordinates have no other skills, and they are the best at counting objects and account books. ”

Before he finished speaking, someone kicked him, and Huang Ziren scolded: "Okay, Accountant Luo, dare to work hard!" ”

Luo Baiguan took a kick, stood up with a smile on his face, led a group of soldiers behind him towards the courtyard gate, suddenly looked back at Huang Ziren, and said in an aggrieved tone: "My deputy envoy, how many times have I told you, his real name is Luo Baiguan, not Accountant Luo." If you call someone like that again, they will be angry and ignore you! ”

After speaking, Luo Baiguan shook his head in a variety of ways and walked into the courtyard gate.

Huang Ziren only felt uncomfortable, and shouted at Xu Liang, who was snickering, with a sneering face: "Big brother, where did you get such a demon?" It's disgusting. ”

Xu Liang smiled: "Since even you think that Xiao Luo is so demonic, why don't you make some contributions for everyone, sacrifice once, and accept Luo's demonic evil." ”

Huang Ziren trembled, and shook his head again and again: "Big brother, spare me, I can't afford it." ”

Xu Liang laughed.

Xing Zhongshan walked quickly to Xu Liang and said, "Tan Zhisheng didn't find it." ”

Xu Liang was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said: "The Tan family's property is all on the bright side, and there are only a few places in total, where can he hide?" In this way, I immediately sent someone to seize all the properties of the two brothers of the Tan family on the ground in Jianchang, and when I saw Tan Zhisheng, I killed them on the spot! ”

Tan Zhisheng didn't have the decent demeanor that the second young master of the Tan family should have at this moment, he was on the Jianchang River, sinking and floating upstream to the river bank like a water dog. He was already far away from the five patrol ships on the river, but he did not dare to stop for a moment, and still swam to the shore with all his strength.

Several times, Tan Zhisheng wanted to give up and sink to the bottom of the river and die, but when he thought of the cold and sharp arrows ruthlessly fired by the patrol battalion officer's ship, the brother-in-law Fang Fu who died in the river in order to protect himself, and then the fire and terrible screams of the Tiger Gang headquarters, Tan Zhisheng seemed to have some strength out of thin air and persevered.

The small river of Jianchang, which is inconspicuous on weekdays, is like a wide ocean at the moment, and you can't see the other side no matter how you swim.

Just when Tan Zhisheng had used up his last strength, but the river was gray, the river and the sky were all one, and the expected riverbank didn't know where it was.

Yes! Tan Zhisheng was about to look up to the sky and roar, but all that came from his throat was a hoarse whimper.

Xu Liang! I, Tan Zhisheng, will never let you go even if I turn into a ghost!

Ahem, choked on several mouthfuls of river water, Tan Zhisheng finally gave up paddling resignedly, and sighed in his heart, big brother, brother is here to accompany you!

The whole body felt into the eastern water, overflowed the tip of his nose, and then diffused his eyes, Tan Zhisheng opened his eyes and watched through the river as the bright moon in the sky gradually blurred.

Is this going to die?

Tan Zhisheng closed his eyes, spit out a few mouthfuls of blisters, and inhaled several mouthfuls of river water, and suddenly, a hard object was against Tan Zhisheng's toes.

He opened his eyes and looked, through the dim halo of water, a stone at the bottom of the river was buried in half of the river, and then looked around, Tan Zhisheng couldn't help but be happy, stepping on the bottom of the river, then it must be almost to the riverside! Tan Maisheng kicked his feet and floated upwards again.

It's getting dark. As soon as the gate of Jianchang City opened, the early risers were stunned by an explosive piece of news.

The Tiger Gang was wiped out by the officers and soldiers of the Jianchang Patrol Battalion before last night, and all the properties under the names of the Tan brothers, such as restaurants, gambling houses, flower houses, and shops, were all sealed overnight, the goods in the store were sealed, the door of the store was sealed, and the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion were guarding the door, and the notices for arresting Tan Zhisheng, the second master of the Tan family, were plastered all over the streets and alleys.

In the entire Jianchang County, the most lively topic discussed by people is the fall of the Tan family, and the most interesting question is why the Tan family fell.

At the gate of Dongcheng, a beggar came over cowering on the side of the road, unkempt, barefoot, dirty face, just like this, no one would believe that he was Tan Zhisheng, the second master of the Tan family!

Tan Zhisheng entered the city smoothly, and when he arrived outside Tan Ji's soappaste room, he saw four officers and soldiers guarding the courtyard gate, and officers and soldiers were moving things out from the inside.

This scene made Tan Zhisheng angry, he stared at those officers and soldiers with red eyes for a long time, and finally reason overcame emotion and turned to leave.

Tan Zhisheng quietly returned to the vicinity of his private residence, and sure enough, this place was also seized by the officers and soldiers, outside the vermilion gate of the Tan Mansion, Tan Zhisheng saw his original wife and the most favored concubine being driven out in a panic at the moment, and watched the officers and soldiers raid the house. The little concubine saw an officer and soldier come out with a brocade box, pounced on it, and begged: "Poor master, this is the dowry of the concubine's mother's family, you can't take it." ”

The little soldier squinted at the concubine, swallowed his saliva vigorously, and asked with a sneer: "Since it is a marriage, then this thing is also a thing of the Tan family, we adults have confessed, everything that belongs to the Tan family has to be twisted!" After speaking, the little soldier grabbed the concubine's hand and stroked it greedily a few times, so startled that the concubine quickly withdrew her hand.

Hahaha! The soldier and the guards laughed wildly.

Tan Zhisheng couldn't stand it anymore, gritted his teeth and turned away, ran to no one, and smashed the wall with his empty right hand like crazy.

Yes!

Tan Zhisheng shouted, accompanied by the scream, and spit out a mouthful of blood!

At this time, two passers-by passed by, and one of them glanced at Tan Zhisheng, chuckled and said to his companion: "Look, this beggar is still pretending to be deep!" ”

Tan Zhisheng raised his head slowly, and at a glance, he looked like a ghost.

It was almost noon, Tan Zhisheng was tired and hungry, and the corn steamed buns that he used to disdain on the street now became very tempting. Tan Zhisheng saw Xu Liang come out of the Yali in Jianchang County and return to the Xu Mansion on Dongmen Street, he followed cautiously for a while, and finally found that it was just in vain.

Tan Zhisheng walked on the street and saw a well-dressed young scholar, pretending to be unintentional, and took three big meat buns while the owner of the steamed bun shop was not paying attention.

He added his lips and pretended to be shopping, and when he saw that the owner of the steamed bun shop turned his head to greet the other diners, he quickly took four or five steamed buns and stuffed them into his arms.

"Hey, what are you doing? Steal! The owner of the bun shop immediately turned his head and asked.

"I didn't ...... Steal. Tan Zhisheng argued.

The owner of the bun shop didn't say a word, rolled up his sleeves and the rolling pin, and went around the shop to beat the general.

Seeing this, Tan Zhisheng withdrew his feet and ran.

"Straight sissy thief! Stinky food, I don't admit it even if I go to my bun, see if Lao Tzu doesn't break your dog's legs! The owner of the bun shop scolded and scolded, seeing that he couldn't catch up with Tan Zhisheng, he picked up a rolling pin and threw it at Tan Zhisheng.

I only heard a dull sound, and the rolling pin hit Tan Zhisheng's back. Tan Zhisheng threw himself to the ground, two buns leaked out of his arms, rolled to the corner of the street, and heard the footsteps of the owner of the bun shop approaching, Tan Zhisheng endured the severe pain on his back, rolled and crawled, and fled again.

In the ruined temple of Jianchang City, Tan Zhisheng sat in the haystack, reached out and touched his back, only to feel swollen and painful, grinning and biting the stolen buns, he didn't see the stuffing, and then he took a bite, he actually bit his head, and the remaining half was still missing, and he was suddenly sad and angry, and threw another bun towards the temple door.

After sitting in a daze, the sad and indignant feelings almost tore Tan Zhisheng apart, and after a long time, Tan Zhisheng struggled to stand up, walked out of the temple, and saw a stray dog at the temple gate with a white bun in his mouth and ran over with his head and tail.

Tan Zhisheng was stunned, a nervous laugh came out of his mouth, and after a few laughs turned into whimpering, he sat down at the temple gate instead, howling and crying.
