Chapter Seventy-Four: Fighting

As soon as Jiang Kun's carriage left, Xiao Wenxuan led people out of the shadows and quietly followed Jiang Kun and his party out of the city. They followed all the way to Lingxian in the northwest of Susong, and saw Jiang Kun leading people into the city and turned into a small remote village.

At this time, it was already slightly dark, Xiao Wenxuan asked Fang Ping to go to the county government to find someone, and led someone into the village himself.

The houses were low and dense, and they were all simple adobe houses. Jiang Kun and the others arrived at a courtyard and moved the goods down box by box to a bungalow.

Xiao Wenxuan asked his subordinates to stay hidden, and quietly avoided the guards in front of the door, and came to a window at the back of the house. He took out his dagger, opened the bolt through the crack in the window, and leaped into the house with ease.

There are black holes in the house, and it is impossible to distinguish between east and west, north and south. Xiao Wenxuan took out a night pearl from his purse, and saw more than a dozen large boxes piled up in this room by the light.

He opened one of them, and it was full of brimstone, and another one, still. More than a dozen boxes were inspected one by one, and all of them were sulfur that was now in short supply in the world. How much black powder is this going to make? I'm afraid that the entire capital can be blown up.

At this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from a distance into the house. Xiao Wenxuan wanted to return the same way from the window, but when he arrived at the window, he heard footsteps outside the window. Then, there was the sound of unlocking the door.

Xiao Wenxuan saw that the walls of this house were empty and there was not even a place to hide, and thought: It's broken, I'm afraid that people will catch turtles in the urn.

Sure enough, the door opened, and Jiang Kun stood at the door with a group of people holding torches.

Jiang Kun looked Xiao Wenxuan up and down proudly for a while, and sneered: "This son followed us all the way, I don't know why?" ”

It turned out that Xiao Wenxuan's whereabouts had long been known to them, and the reason why they pretended not to know was that they wanted to lure them here to kill them.

Now that it has been exposed, Xiao Wenxuan also appeared generously.

"Da Ming Law, it is not allowed to resell medicinal materials without permission. Boss Jiang has saved so much sulfur, isn't he afraid of the government's investigation? The voice is not angry and arrogant.

"Da Ming Law? Haha, here, Lao Tzu is the sky. Since Ji Honglei betrayed me, it means that you are from the government. Being able to track me down means that you also have some skills. But if you're unlucky enough to know something you shouldn't know, you're afraid you won't be able to get out of this house today. ”

"It's a big breath, since I can come, I can naturally go."

Xiao Wenxuan had his long sword in his hand, and without waiting for Jiang Kun's reaction, the sword pointed directly at Jiang Kun's door. Jiang Kun was startled, and the torch in his hand was thrown at Xiao Wenxuan, and while Xiao Wenxuan was dodging, he hid in the crowd behind him.

"Kill him."

Jiang Kun's tone was eerie and terrifying.

Everyone stepped forward and surrounded Xiao Wenxuan. Where would Xiao Wenxuan be afraid of these little hairies/thieves, I saw the sword in his hand flying up and down around him like a silver dragon, coiling left and right, and screaming everywhere he went.

In a few moments, the room fell. Xiao Wenxuan walked out of the house with a blood-dripping sword, and not far away, there was a sound of fighting, and Xiao Wenxuan judged that Li Feng, who should have stayed outside, was surrounded by people.

Looking at the dozen or so people in the courtyard, Xiao Wenxuan's eyes were sharp.

"Since you know that I am a member of the imperial court, and you dare to kill the killer, I think your courage is too great."

"Hmph, if you knew who was standing behind me, I wouldn't say that."

"I really want to know, who gave you the bear-hearted leopard courage to dare to attack this king."

This king? The people in the courtyard looked at each other and looked at Jiang Kun one after another.

Jiang Kun was shocked, there are only a handful of people who can be crowned kings in this dynasty, and there are even fewer people of this age, who can enter and exit casually and appear near Bingzhou...... Could it be the king of Ningjun?

No matter who he is, as long as he wants to be unfavorable to himself, even if it is the prince, he will not be able to get out of this village alive.

Jiang Kun's eyes stood fierce.

"Say I'm bold? I think you just don't want to live, so you dare to pretend to be the prince. Today I will fulfill you and let you go to the earth to fulfill your dream of being a prince. Kill him. ”

Jiang Kun waved his hand, and more than a dozen people rushed forward together.

Xiao Wenxuan did not move, waiting for the enemy to approach, and immediately turned into a swimming dragon, sometimes as fast as a meteor and sometimes as slow as a tiger, and none of the people who approached him were not injured by the sword qi in his hand, and they all fell to the ground screaming.

At this time, the voices outside the courtyard were boiling, and Li Feng rushed into the courtyard with Xiang Xiang and gathered around Xiao Wenxuan.

Outside the courtyard, a group of people dressed as villagers surrounded the bungalow, and at a glance, there were as many as 100 people.

"Lord Wang, something is wrong with this village, there are no old people and children, all of them are young villagers, and my subordinates suspect that these people are private soldiers raised by someone. It's too dangerous here, and there are a lot of them, so a few of us will fight a bloody way to escort you out. ”

Li Feng said quickly in Xiao Wenxuan's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Let's go together."

A year ago, he was poisoned, and a few cronies around him killed a bloody way to save his life. Now, a year later, he won't leave them behind and go on his own.

"Lord ......"

Li Feng was about to persuade again, but saw a villager running from a distance, picking up the crowd to Jiang Kun, and reporting to Jiang Kun in a low voice: "Boss, Lord He of the county is here with officers and soldiers. ”

"How many?" Jiang Kun frowned.

"There are thirty of them."

"Get in the way."

"Yes."

Dozens of people rushed to the entrance of the village.

The two of them didn't make loud voices, but Xiao Wenxuan heard them clearly. When the officers and soldiers entered the village, Jiang Kun dared to stop him, how powerful the people behind him were, Xiao Wenxuan could imagine.

"Jiang Kun, if you look for death, you dare to stop the officers and soldiers?"

Xiao Wenxuan was already sure that the big man behind Jiang Kun was King Ping, and only King Ping could make him dare to be so rampant regardless of all the consequences.

"Haha, I said, here I am the sky, a small county is just a fart in my eyes. Let me tell you, as long as you kill a few of you and send some silver to the magistrate, today's incident will not happen at all. Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver. Don't tell me how incorruptible you officials are, fart, which one is not scavenging the people's fat and people's ointment to live? ”

"Jiang Kun, you will regret your actions today."

After Xiao Wenxuan finished speaking, he had already rushed out, Jiang Kun took two steps back, waved his hands, and all the seventy or eighty people behind him rushed towards Xiao Wenxuan.

These people, who seem to be dressed as villagers, are all skilled. Li Feng desperately protected Xiao Wenxuan and prevented the villagers from approaching him. For a while, the sound of fighting was everywhere, accompanied by bursts of screams, and blood and flesh flew in the courtyard.

An hour passed, the enemy repelled wave after wave, Xiao Wenxuan exerted too much physical strength, and his movements gradually slowed down.

Although Li Feng did not fall, he was also injured. Xiao Wenxuan was not spared, and his left arm was also cut by the sword, and blood was constantly dripping down.

As soon as Jiang Kun saw that the time had come, he held a scimitar in his hand and went into battle in person.

Xiao Wenxuan pressed Li Feng, who was guarding in front of him, to face Jiang Kun.

Jiang Kun's martial arts are not as good as Xiao Wenxuan, but Xiao Wenxuan's left arm was injured and he lost too much blood, and he had been fighting for so long before, and his physical strength had already been almost consumed. Jiang Kun knew that he was not as strong as Xiao Wenxuan, so he came up and approached him directly.

When the two were fighting inseparably, another villager ran over in embarrassment and shouted loudly at Jiang Kun, who was kicked out by Xiao Wenxuan:

"Boss, it's not good, Lieutenant Hu came in with a hundred officers and soldiers, and our people couldn't resist being caught by them."

Jiang Kun was startled and wanted to get up, but unfortunately it was too late. Xiao Wenxuan had already deceived his eyes, the sword light flashed in front of him, and his tendons and tendons were broken. Jiang Kun screamed a few times and fainted in pain.

"Lay down your arms, this king will spare you from death."

Xiao Wenxuan's voice was like a sharp blade, piercing everyone's ears, and the villagers in the courtyard were stunned in place and didn't know what to do.

A man who had been following Jiang Kun saw that the situation that had been decided had been reversed, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and a dagger in his hand burst out of the air with a "whoosh", approaching Xiao Wenxuan's heart.

Xiao Wenxuan had already taken precautions, the sword in his hand shook, the tip of the sword met the dagger, and he whirled in the air, and with the power of the sword, it rebounded and hit his eyebrows, and the man fell to the ground with a bang.

"If there is a rebel, he will end up."

Xiao Wenxuan's voice was full of emotion, everyone put down their weapons one after another, Hu County Lieutenant led the officers and soldiers to relieve the siege of Lord He, and the two teams of people arrived just in time to tie up these villagers.

Fang Ping also squeezed to Xiao Wenxuan's side from the crowd, and when he saw that he was injured, he quickly tore off a strip from his underwear to stop the bleeding for him first.

He Qian, the county magistrate, is a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a thin body and a shrewd face. He knew from Fang Ping that it was King Ning Jun in front of him, so he hurriedly took the county lieutenants and officers and soldiers around him to kneel down to Xiao Wenxuan to say goodbye.

"The official is late, which makes the prince frightened."

"Get up."

Xiao Wenxuan looked at him coldly, and his tone was not good: "It's really time for Lord He to come!" ”

"The lower official got the letter and knew that the prince was here, so he hurried to answer it, but he didn't want these people to be so arrogant and dare to stop the official. Fortunately, the lower officials fought desperately, and the county lieutenant Hu arrived in time, so that these Diao people would not be reversed. ”

How could He Qian not hear Xiao Wenxuan's displeasure, but he continued to pretend to be stupid.

He Qian's nodding and bowing appearance made Xiao Wenxuan disgusted in his heart, a figure like Jiang Kun came out of Lingxian County, monopolized the access of sulfur in Bingzhou within half a year, and raised so many private soldiers, how could he not know as the lord of a county? The most reasonable explanation is that he has been bought by Jiang Kun, so he let Jiang Kun do anything here.

Xiao Wenxuan looked at the villagers in the courtyard who were tied hand and foot and were picked up one by one, and suddenly turned his head and asked.

"How many years has Lord He been in this position?"

Well? He Qian was stunned, asking this at this time?

He Qian, the old fox, smiled on his face: "Back to the prince, Xia Guan has been the magistrate of Ling County for seven years. ”

"Seven years? It's time for a change of place. ”

Xiao Wenxuan's face was expressionless, and his eyes were obscure.

He Qian trembled, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his body.
