When the curfew time was approaching, Yang Yifei had already driven Mao Shibai and Wei Xiaobao out of the city in a carriage and headed for Desheng Mountain, when the jailers who had gone out to rest returned to the prison.

However, the situation in the prison frightened them so much that they lost their three souls, and they rushed to Yangzhou Mansion with a crawl.

In less than half an hour, the Yangzhou prefect, the chief catcher of Yangzhou, the commander of the Yangzhou guard, and other military and political officials rushed to Yangzhou Prison.

All the prison guards were killed, and all the officers and soldiers who came from the capital to escort the Zhuang family into Beijing were wiped out, which was tantamount to a major earthquake for Yangzhou officialdom and the entire imperial court.

More than 100 people died at one time, which also involved the worship of the government and the opposition, which couldn't help but shock the Yangzhou officialdom.

The only good news, I'm afraid that the Zhuang family is still there, and they haven't been robbed, otherwise Ao Bai will be angry, and the prefect of Yangzhou and the chief arrester are estimated to be the end.

The chief arrester immediately ordered his subordinates to arrest the head, launched a separate interrogation of the Zhuang family, and asked them what happened in the prison, and after questioning most of the Zhuang family, they all got the same account.

The one who came to rob the prison and killed all the jailers and officers and soldiers was Mao Shibai's comrades, who came to rescue Mao Shiba.

When asked how many people they had come and what their appearance was, the Zhuang family said in unison: There were a group of black-clothed masked people who came to rob the prison, and they couldn't see the appearance clearly, there were about twenty or thirty people, and the weapons used were all two thin iron drills.

The post-mortem report confirmed that what they said was true, which made the chief arrester and many investigators instantly link the case with the previous Wansheng gambling house murder case.

Through discussion, they came to a conclusion that a mysterious force had newly appeared on the rivers and lakes, they were strong in martial arts, and they used iron drills as weapons, and Mao Shibai was obviously the person of this force.

After the case was summarized, it was soon reported to the capital, and the Qing court was furious, and this time the opinions of the Ao Bai and the major auxiliary ministers were surprisingly consistent, and they must make every effort to find out the situation of this force and eradicate it, otherwise where is the face of the court, and where is the majesty?

The imperial court sent a messenger to appease the families of the killed officers and soldiers and the Yangzhou garrison, and the squire of the criminal department personally led the team and led a large number of elite people in the capital to go to Yangzhou to investigate the case, and many masters of the inner world accompanied him.

Ao Bai re-sent a team of men and horses to Yangzhou to escort the Qin prisoners, and this time he sent two people from the hundred households to be responsible for escorting.

Although this group of mysterious people saved Mao Eighteen this time and had nothing to do with the dealer, this incident also gave Ao Bai a wake-up call.

The Zhuang family has a wide range of connections, and they were arrested because of the "History of the Ming Dynasty", so maybe there will be those remnants of the former dynasty who specifically opposed the Qing Dynasty to come to the rescue.

While martial law was imposed in Yangzhou, and the imperial court went down all over the world to investigate the group of mysterious people who made iron drills with both hands, Yang Yifei and the three of them had already spent the night in Desheng Mountain.

In the original plot, it was because of the official who caught Mao 18 that he heard that Mao 18 and Wu Liuqi had agreed to a duel in Desheng Mountain, so Shi Song chased and killed Desheng Mountain according to this clue.

But now that those officials have all died in prison, naturally no one knows where Mao Shibai went, and there is no victory in the battle where Wei Xiaobao sprinkled lime powder.

……

The next day, the three of them waited for the sun to rise three poles in Victory Mountain, but there was still no trace of Wu Liuqi.

Mao 18 recuperated all night for this battle, and because of Yang Yifei, he was not seriously injured as in the original play, and his state remained at the peak at this time.

However, Wu Liuqi never came, and he also began to get anxious, walking around the forest, and muttering: "It doesn't make sense!" It's obviously agreed, but the hour is almost over, and he won't show up yet......"

Wei Xiaobao leaned to Mao Eighteen's side and said, "Brother Eighteen, you didn't hesitate to risk being killed on the spot to escape from prison, is it really just to compete with that person named Huazi?" ”

Mao 18 said: "Yes, his nickname is 'God Beggar in the Snow', and he is famous in the rivers and lakes." ”

Wei Xiaobao pursed his lips and said, "It's great to hear his name, but it turned out to be a shrunken turtle." ”

Mao Eighteen was stunned, and shouted angrily: "He is a true hero, he will never break the appointment, don't insult him." ”

Wei Xiaobao was taken aback, jumped back, and said angrily: "Then why do you say he hasn't come yet?" I think only you believe he's coming. ”

"Brother Mao, Xiaobao, come and see." At this moment, Yang Yifei's voice came from more than ten zhang away, and Mao 18 and Wei Xiaobao hurriedly walked over.

"Brother Yang, what's wrong?"

At this time, Yang Yifei held a strip of cloth in his hand, waved it to the two, and sighed: "Xiaobao is right, Brother Wu will not come, but he is not avoiding the war, but has other important matters, Brother Mao, see for yourself!" ”

Mao Eighteen took the strip of cloth in surprise, looked at the few lines written on it, and read: "Eighteen my brother, Liuqi received the grace of a meal, I can't help but repay it, you and I will fight again, here and now next year." ”

Wei Xiaobao said disdainfully: "After writing so many words, it's not just two words - if he doesn't come, he will have other excuses next year, and he won't dare to come and confess!" There's no need to come up with this bad idea, wasting our time, it turns out that Hanako is a bad seed. ”

"I think we should hurry up and get ready in front of the officers and soldiers, so as to save Shuang'er and them, Brother Yang, you said yes?"

Yang Yifei frowned slightly, and said: "Xiaobao, Wu Liuqi is strong in martial arts, and he is a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, and he is definitely not a cowardly person. ”

"The reason why he was expelled from the beggar gang was because he had a dispute with the elders in the gang and beat the elders to serious injuries by mistake, which can be described as lawlessness, how could he be afraid of fighting with others?"

Mao 18 agreed approvingly: "Brother Yang is right, if Wu Liuqi has the intention to break the appointment, why bother so much? Da Ke is gone, and he does not forget to repay the kindness of others after receiving a meal, this is the big husband. ”

Wei Xiaobao saw that both of them said this, so he no longer refuted, he had already seen that Mao Shibai was just a reckless man, and he was not very convinced of him.

But he was convinced of Yang Yifei, whether it was force or brains, if he wanted to save Shuang'er, he had to fall on him.

Yang Yifei said: "Okay, since Brother Wu can't come because of something, then let's go!" We had to find a good terrain and most importantly be prepared. ”

"There is such a big thing in Yangzhou City, Tartar will definitely send more people to escort the people of the banker, to save people in the hands of a large number of officers and soldiers, it is not enough to rely on my Thunderbolt Soul Chasing Gun, I have to make some Thunderbolt pop-out for backup."

Mao Shiba's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said in surprise: "Brother Yang, will you make a thunderball?" ”

Yang Yifei really gave him a big surprise, the legendary thunderbolt hall battle rampant big killer is the thunderbolt.

If he has this thing in his hand, he is not afraid of hundreds of people, and he is even more sure of the people who rescue the dealer.

Yang Yifei smiled and said: "That's nature, the thunderbolt is the core inheritance of my Thunderbolt Hall, you can't lose this if you lose anything, let's go!" ”
