Chapter Seventy-Three: The Confrontation at the City Gate
"Now a letter has been sent from there, saying that if we want to let Chase Wind live to open the city gate, otherwise, we will receive the corpse, I think this matter is already very serious, I am afraid it cannot be delayed any longer." Xiuying said
"No way, he is the only person His Royal Highness the Prince attaches the most importance to during his lifetime, if he doesn't die, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely be very sad if he knows, if that's the case, I'm afraid..."
"Most of the people in Fanbang are rude, if Chafeng really falls into their hands, presumably even if the city gate is opened, they will not compromise, and it is possible to bring Chafeng to the real Fanbang and kill it when the time comes." Qin Shao said.
After all, something like this had happened before, so Qin Shao didn't dare to be sloppy.
"Why don't you let me do this thing, if it doesn't work, open the city gate and let them go out first, if they let go of the wind, that's the best, if they don't let go and insist on killing people, these people in that state, don't want to go back alive"
Chu Jiao looked at Shen Zishan with a slightly abnormal expression when she heard this, he was a clean official with clean sleeves, how could he come up with such a method, and it was inevitable when he thought of the current situation.
"You are a civil official, you have no martial arts, if it is yourself, I am worried that it will be dangerous, so it is better to let Xiuying go with you, and we are ambushed outside the city."
"Okay, I got it." ”
Three days later, the people of Fanbang really appeared at the place where they left the city, because most of the people who came with them were men, so they basically came on horseback.
The carriage behind him was loaded with some goods and silk, ready to be taken back, the only one was a carriage but it was not known who was sitting there, and everyone guessed that it should be the place where the wind was located.
"Don't act rashly now, let's see how they react." Chu Jiao said.
Shen Zishan and Chu Jiao were together, followed by Xiuying and a large group of guards, everyone stood at the gate of the city, and the leader was still Helda, but this time there was no longer the thin man behind him.
When Helda and the others reached the gates, they stopped, and they didn't know why they just looked around.
Chu Jiao felt a little strange that she should negotiate at this time, could it be that the wind was already dead?
At this time, Shen Zishan, who was only listening to the city tower, took the lead in speaking: "The traitor doesn't hurry up and hand over the person." ”
Saying that, the archers were ready to stand on the castle tower one by one, and anyone who saw such a situation would feel nervous.
Helda's expression was extremely angry: "I didn't expect you Central Plains people to be so discredited, and you have promised a good deal, do you want to regret it now?" ”
Helda is not a man who likes to talk more, looking at the other party's attitude, his first thought is to do it, the people brought over this time are well-trained people, if they are hard, they may not lose, but I am afraid that the silk business will not be able to do it in the future.
"Guys, give it to me!"
As he spoke, the people behind Helda threw the wagons they were pulling, revealing their broadswords.
Chu Jiao looked at those big knives and couldn't help but think of the wounds on the bodies of those dead people.
She said loudly to the bottom: "I also know that you just want to do business, but the matter of kidnapping people is really unreasonable, and we just hope that you will cooperate with the investigation, I didn't expect you to be so stubborn." ”
"What are you talking nonsense about them? Took the people. Under torture, I don't believe that Helda won't spit out the wind. Shen Zishan gave an order, and the bow and arrow in the archer's hand were like wild horses on the loose.
In this case, Helda had to let them hide in the back of the van first, saving their lives.
At this time, Chu Jiao felt a strong wind behind her, and before she could see what was going on, she was held hostage, and she fell into an unusually cold embrace.
And at that moment, Chu Jiao seemed to see Shen Zishan's panicked expression, as well as Shen Zishan's movements, only to see him slash over with a palm, that person dodged Shen Zishan, didn't he know martial arts?
This doubt flashed in Chu Jiao's mind, because she was immediately taken to the sky by this person, yes, he is a thousand ghosts.
The martial arts of the thousand ghosts were very strong, he tightly clasped Chu Jiao's waist with one hand and pinched his neck with the other, and said in his ear: "Let your people retreat immediately." ”
Seeing this, Shen Zishan had no choice but to retreat.
The thousand ghosts jumped down from the city gate with Chu Jiao's body, and then fled towards the outside of the city, while the others also went out of the city smoothly, but they were always under the surveillance of the soldiers.
Chu Jiao wasn't too panicked, because she knew that Qin Shao was waiting outside the city at this time.
The hot wind hit Chu Jiao felt very uncomfortable, and she was held tightly against her neck and couldn't breathe, she could only squeeze out a few words from between her teeth: "You... Vile... Villain. ”
Qiangui snorted coldly: "Abominable Central Plains woman, I think you are despicable, and now you come to regret it after talking about the conditions, but you still blame me for kidnapping you, and you are really a thief shouting to catch a thief." Although he said this, he let go of his hand, and Chu Jiao was able to breathe.
"If you hand over the people quickly, we won't lock down the city, besides, we just want to investigate the matter, and we don't want to hurt you, if you are really innocent, why dodge, what do you do now can only prove that you are a thief."
"What the hell are you talking about? I don't know. Listening to the frank words of the thousand ghosts, she was also a little puzzled: "You hijacked the wind around the prince, and you still didn't let him go." ”
"You're such a crazy woman, I don't know you're there, what do you mean by the fact that I haven't touched your people since that day, but what do you mean by your people being tense with us just now."
You mean that the wind is not in your hands, so why did you leave the city on the appointed day?
"What are you talking about, the day when you went out of the city was today, it was Shen Zishan who said that he would let us out today, I didn't expect this dog thief to cheat us before he left the city, I didn't expect you Central Plains people to be so wolf-hearted."
"I think there may be some misunderstanding in this, Chaser Wind has disappeared from us, and before he disappeared, the last place he went to was your post station and we also investigated along the road.
The most likely place he went to was yours, and even a beggar said he really saw it, and he never came out again after entering your station, so we thought..."
"Is it any good for me that I hijack him?
If I want to kill someone, I don't have to sneak around at all, like it's easy to kill you now, understand?
I don't think it's enough to break your arm that day, why don't I break your leg again today. ”
The man's bad taste made Chu Jiao's back chill, she could feel that this man was not joking, he was very likely to do so.
Looking at the location away from the city, getting farther and farther away, Chu Jiao thought that Qin Shao should also be here.
"Your people can go out of the city, but you can't go, I want you to stay and investigate one thing for us, as well as the matter of the previous token, if you don't let me mention it, I will mention it."
"Do you think you still have a chance to talk to me about terms now?" As if the thousand ghosts had heard something funny, this woman was really overwhelmed.
"Whether I live or die, you won't be able to get out of here today."
Saying that, Chu Jiao stabbed a silver needle into the arm of the ghost cutter, and his body was paralyzed for a moment.
Chu Jiao took advantage of this moment to push him away, and she also flew out of the air, and there was a boundless grass in front of her, but she accurately fell into a wide embrace.
"You're a little late this time." Chu Jiao said, but she also had a feeling of the aftermath of the disaster.
After all, it was the first time for her to fly so high, and in her opinion, the martial arts of the thousand ghosts seemed to be a little stronger than the surname Qin.
Looking at Chu Jiao's eyes, Qin Shao knew what she was thinking.
You must know that it is not so easy to catch him, and seeing this woman running away, Thousand Ghosts is also a little annoyed in his heart.
"I know, it's not that easy to catch you, and it's not difficult for you to leave, but Helda's life, you won't care about it, right?
I heard that he is your most powerful subordinate, you must know that it is not cost-effective for you to fight to the death, and you don't know how long you will have to train this group of people to lose. Chu Jiao said to the Thousand Money Ghost.
Half an hour later, Herda and the others had completely left Quanzhou and headed for Fanbang.
But when it was time to leave, Helda thought it was strange.
The master of his own family will never be threatened by anything.
He never cares about the lives of his subordinates.
Although the people brought in front of him are well-trained, there are countless people like Fanbang.
So why did the master follow the woman back to the city?
He didn't figure it out, so he simply went back.
……
And beside Chu Jiao and the others, a soft-looking man appeared.
They returned to Quanzhou together, and Shen Zishan saw Chu Jiao coming back unharmed, but he turned around and passed away so fast that there was no way to notice it.
The identity of a thousand ghosts is also unknown.
"Princess, you can be regarded as coming back, if you make a mistake, then I will not be able to atone for my sins even if I die, the prince's has made me guilty enough, can thieves hurt you?"
"It's not in the way, I have some small injuries on my body, the thief has been beaten away by King Qin, what kind of martial arts King Qin is, you also know, with him, how can I have an accident.
But I'm afraid it's not that simple to learn the truth of this matter.,Thousand ghosts said that he didn't kidnap Chafeng.,Besides, Chafeng walked out of the house by himself.,There's one thing that's very strange.,I don't know if you can show me the letter they sent at that time.,Show me again? ”
The thousand ghosts had been listening to this by her side, and he could only laugh and say nothing when he was beaten away.
