When Lin Fuhu sat on the ground dejectedly, this joking night attack came to an end, and under the condition of absolute combat power crushing and the bandit leader being caught, those thugs were arrested one after another.

And the three of Jinyiwei and Nie Ming easily escorted more than ten Lin family members who were tied up in a string to the county office, while Zhou Xiaochong slowly followed behind with the injured servants.

With Zhou Xiaochong's drumming and injustice, Lin Fuhu and the others were directly put into prison, and this time they were not so easy to come out, after all, this matter had the participation of Jinyiwei, although the local officials would care about the face of the Lin family, they still couldn't be too favoritistic.

Besides, this kind of foolish thing of breaking into private houses to smash and loot has already violated the bottom line, not to mention that the other party is still under the banner of bandits, and the crime of beheading according to the law makes the magistrate who has just been woken up very big.

For the sake of the Lin family's annual filial piety, he still sentenced Lin Fuhu to a ten-year prison sentence and a lot of fines, although he could use the ransom to offset the crime, but as a concubine, he didn't think that the other party would have this economy.

Zhou Xiaozhong is also very satisfied with this result, as long as she can get rid of this dog skin plaster and have the corresponding compensation, it will be very good for her, after all, she is just an orphan girl, and the county magistrate will not take care of a little person like her in normal times.

Nie Ming saw that the main owner did not pursue this matter, so he stopped interfering, and they were not nosy guys after a long time, so the matter was settled.

After seeing Lin Fuhu and them sent to prison, a group of people who were content to go back on their way back, and soon after they returned to the inn again.

Although the first and second floors of the inn were in a mess, the upstairs was not affected in any way, and the group found a clean room and began to rest.

In the days that followed, the Lin family did not move, and the Heavenly Demon Sect did not move for some reason, and the atmosphere of the entire town suddenly became very quiet and peaceful.

And the next morning, Nie Ming helped Zhou Xiaozhong and them tidy up for a morning, and finally cleaned up the mess on the first and second floors, and then he started a leisurely and peaceful life.

Nie Ming, who has no pressure, is really like a tourist, admiring the summer lotus, visiting the academy, and lingering among the beautiful landscapes of Wufu.

Every morning, Nie Ming will ask Xiao Chong to make a pot of tea, Jin Jun's eyebrows are small and tight, the cords are tight and slender, round and straight, the soup is golden in color, the water is sweet, and the sweetness is fragrant; The shape of the iron arhat is tightly knotted, the color is greenish brown and fresh, the soup color is orange and yellow after brewing, and the leaves are red and green.

The two chatted over tea at the tea house, and the days passed day by day.

······

Nie Ming dealt with Lin Fuhu here, but Su Canghai was in big trouble.

The day after Nie Ming took over Lin Fuhu, Su Canghai had already come to the vicinity of Tongmu Pass at this time, but he felt a very wrong aura along the way.

Because there are fewer and fewer traces of the merchant horse team along the way, and the closer you get to Tongmu Pass, the more strange the aura becomes, and the brand-new ruts on the road disappear after officially stepping into the boundary of Tongmu Pass, which is not a normal situation.

As mentioned above, Tongmuguan is located in a fracture pass in the Wuyi Mountains, with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, as the transportation and military important place of the former dynasty together with the place where the ancient road of Fujian and Jiangxi once ran through, the road here can be called extending in all directions, so businessmen everywhere can freely choose the road.

Of course, because it is the road of the previous dynasty, so this road must not be very peaceful, and at the same time, there is a dangerous Tongmuguan fault zone here, although the extremely majestic and magnificent scenery is amazing, but there are not a few merchants who die in it every year.

However, although there are many roads into the mountain, the principle of the same destination should be unified, and Su Canghai gradually realized that this trip to Tongmu Pass will not be peaceful.

Su Canghai brought not a lot of people this time, although the local officials of the Holy Dynasty could not be in charge of the troops, but the fighters such as guards and doormen were all in charge.

So this time, the number of thugs on Su Canghai's side, both openly and secretly, reached an astonishing thirty, which was already the limit of what a local government could endure, and each of these thirty was a good man who licked blood from the knife edge.

However, even with such combat power, Su Canghai still felt that he had no bottom in his heart, after all, first the ronin and then the Heavenly Demon Sect, everything seemed to indicate that there seemed to be another chess player behind the curtain who was playing a game with them.

So Su Canghai stood at a boundary monument in Tongmu Pass and waited for a long time, and after making sure that no one else had passed here, he sighed and stuffed a prepared letter into the arms of a servant: "Send it to Wufu Town to Nie Ming, and you must deliver it to him personally." ”

The servant nodded, carefully put the letter away, and rode away.

Su Canghai watched the other party in the distance all the way, and he didn't return to the carriage until the other party disappeared at the end of the road: "I'm afraid it's a huge risk to go, everyone cheer up!" ”

The other two people naturally chose a different route from the others, after all, although they are in a competitive relationship, it is not yet time to tear their faces.

As for the problems that Su Canghai can discover, Ren Zongheng and Chen Liang can naturally find them, and there are a lot of people around them.

Ren Zongheng, as a descendant disciple of the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households and the Jinyi Guard's commander from the capital, naturally has a strong scheduling ability, and this time there are fifty people around him.

Chen Liang also brought thirty good men there, the Chen family has the habit of training militia since ancient times, and the men of the Chen family have all experienced this process, most of them will go to the military to hone their skills, although they will leave in the youth in the past with various reasons There are no officials, but their combat power is really real.

And the thirty people brought by Chen Liang this time are all soldiers who have been on the battlefield for three years, and they are all experienced soldiers, so even if he knows that Ren Zongheng has brought fifty people, he doesn't need it at all.

However, their observation power may be less than that of Su Canghai, but there are still talents around them, and they have also found problems along the way, and under their prompting, Ren Zongheng and Chen Liang made the same judgment at the same time, and the progress of the three forces has stopped.

In addition, the two sides also sent people to deliver letters, and the behavior pattern of the three parties was the same.

But in the shadows, the masterminds behind the scenes seem to be prepared for this, and in the mountains and forests outside Wufu Town, men in Dongying samurai uniforms are gearing up in the dark.

This is the only place to pass through Wufu Town to Tongmu Pass, although it is the only way to pass here, but it is very hidden, and it is a good place to intercept and ambush.

Of course, the three families originally put two people here to answer, and the three parties sat here peacefully, but on a drowsy afternoon, a "caravan" passed by.

One of the young men walked curiously towards the six, as if to ask something, and the six looked at the people with high spirits, but they were greeted by an intoxicating aroma.

The six of them were alert at this time, but just as they wanted to say something, they were surprised to find that their bodies had stopped obeying, and the next moment they all fell to the ground, their limbs weak.

And the "young man" also walked in front of the six people: "The little girl's name is Xue Ji, don't report the wrong name when you get to the Netherworld." ”

As he spoke, a white line stretched out from the other party's cuffs, and wrapped around the necks of the six people very quickly, and as the girl turned around, six breaking sounds sounded at the same time.

"It's cleaned up and ready to welcome the 'guests.'" Xue Ji raised her hand, Bai Lian returned to her sleeve, and the returning Bai Lian was still like snow.

Six people resembling corpses on the ground walked out of the caravan behind her, and after disposing of the corpses, they changed into their clothes.

The man at the head of them said, "Holy Maiden, do we just need to intercept the people who have come back?" The other party meant..."

Xue Ji smiled coldly, and the Bai Lian in her hand had already wrapped around the other party's neck at some point: "You don't think that the other party is really cooperating with us, right?" Just do what I tell you, and I'm the one in charge here. ”

"What the Holy Maiden said, what the Holy Maiden said, I know it's wrong!" The speaker broke out in a cold sweat, and his whole body trembled with fear.

The others saw the saint's anger and trembled to the position where they should have appeared, and they didn't say a word for fear of being harmed by the pond fish. The Heavenly Demon Sect is not a benevolent organization, and there will be no punishment for the high-ranking members of the sect who kill their subordinates.

However, Xue Ji didn't seem to be in a bad mood, so she just pulled her to the ground and withdrew Bai Lian in her hand: "Remember who is your master, otherwise I won't show mercy next time." ”

The crowd of onlookers and the unlucky ones on the ground shouted: "The Holy Maiden is wise, remember the teachings of the Holy Maiden!" ”

In the following time, Xue Ji laid out the course of action and precautions in detail, and nodded slowly after the six people left behind and the few people in ambush remembered it.

After that, she got into the carriage and took the other Heavenly Demon Cultists back to the stronghold near Wufu Town.

In the time that followed, messengers from the three parties passed by the junction, and when they appeared at the end of the road, they were stopped by men dressed in the clothes of the other two companies.

Although the courier will not deal with them, the person who appears later in his own clothes will be more likely to gain the trust of the other party, and all this is done to prevent the other party from destroying the letter.

Although this routine is very old-fashioned, I have to say that the guys of the Heavenly Demon Sect are indeed well versed in people's hearts, and none of the messengers from the front and back sides found the problem, and when they fell to the ground, their eyes were full of surprise and puzzlement.

As for the three secret letters, they soon appeared in Yukihime's hands.
