Chapter 22: Infiltrating and Scouting
"Lord Hamur, last time...... The goods of the Fuxiang were robbed, and hundreds of people in the entire caravan died quietly in the mountains, and the line was broken. ”
"Hmph, who told your Wang family not to kill that Xue Hu and Xue Long earlier? How many things have been harmed? ”
"Alas, Lord Hamur, you don't know something, there is Xue Long and Xue Hu, after all, things on the surface are easy to do......"
"That's it, it's the goods, you weigh it."
"Good...... That's right, it's the ......."
"That's all there is to it. The price should be raised by one percent, and we have spent a lot of effort in order to bypass Shanyangzhai this time. Well, yes, your Wang family still has a strong foundation, and this time you actually used golden buns to pay the bill......"
Chu He, who was eavesdropping outside, turned dark, it seemed that the Wang family used the golden buns he sent back, and he didn't expect that the Wang family would use it to pay Hu.
Song Nian leaned over to Chu He, put his ear close to him and said, "Look, the Wang family should be in ruins. Otherwise, how could there be so few people, and the golden buns we sent during the day, they would directly use them to pay the Hu people? It shows that their treasury is really empty. And ......"
"Moreover, they caught fire last night, and it is estimated that they lit the fire themselves." Chu He said in a low voice.
Song Nian was stunned: "Lighting the fire by yourself is not the shopkeeper's admission...... No, you mean...... The shopkeeper's arson was not to cover up the fact that he was greedy for ink, but to cover up the fact that the Wang family was greedy for ink? ”
Chu He nodded: "That's right, Wang family...... is really poor, and what the Wang family can have left now is ...... These are just houses. Their money should have been bought with these Hu people...... I guess it's opioids. Wang Jia...... Opioid addiction, no wonder it is so dilapidated. ”
"You also know that smoking opioids will ruin the family?" Song Nian was stunned.
Chu He said lightly: "In the previous dynasty, there were already bad officials and nobles, because they were contaminated with this kind of thing, and their families were ruined. Therefore, this dynasty has included this object in the forbidden object to prevent such things from happening again. ”
Song Nian felt embarrassed. I thought I had exclusive knowledge, but I didn't expect that Chu He knew more than himself.
It turns out that opioids are banned for this reason......
Song Nian always thought that it was forbidden as a witch medicine, after all, many witches and gods in history liked to use opium as a psychedelic agent to create religious effects.
"Shhhhh......hh I only received one tael of silver, and I was only responsible for bringing you in, not for taking you back completely. ”
Song Nian was embarrassed and didn't dare to speak.
Chu He snorted coldly, but he didn't contradict it.
After all, he can't deal with children.
At this time, those Hu people sucked up the contents of the glass bottle, and some people still kept knocking on the bottle.
And inside the high walls, the howls of beasts became more and more miserable.
"It's so bad...... Okay, I'll give you a little fun! Hamur came out satisfied, heard the howl in the high wall next door, and immediately snatched the glass bottle from the hands of those Hu people and threw it into the high wall.
Within the high walls, the screams became even more terrible, and even the sound of the iron door shaking could be heard.
"Lord Hamur...... the old servant was startled: "Lord Hamur, the glass bottle can't be lost." ”
"Hahaha, I'm so happy tonight, let's go!" Hamur turned and walked away.
The old servant stomped his feet: "You guys, come quickly, open this door, go in, and pick up the glass bottle!" ”
A few listless servants came out of the shadows, walked to the iron door under the high wall, yawned, and opened the iron door.
Song Nian was taken aback.
She hadn't noticed where these people were hiding.
In other words, these people should ...... She and Chu He and the others could clearly be seen climbing onto the roof.
But as a result, these people didn't say anything.
Song Nian looked at the way these people yawned, and suddenly understood in his heart.
The Wang family is already short of manpower now, and they have to let these servants be on duty at night, but I am afraid that these people will be lazy for a long time, and they will definitely nap and sleep just now.
Seeing the iron door open, the old servant walked in with a few people, and there were chickens and dogs jumping inside.
Chu He made a color and took the lead in jumping.
Song Nian was startled, but he still jumped off and was followed by Chu He, and then several people rushed in along the iron gate.
At this time, the night was dark, and the old servant with a few servants did not know what he was busy with.
After Chu He Song Nian and the others sneaked in, they quietly hid in the shadows, and the inside of this high wall was even darker, hiding in the corner, so they would not be discovered.
After slowly getting used to the light, Song Nian realized that this place was actually a simple cell.
In this cell, it is divided into compartments, and in each compartment, a person is tied with iron chains.
At this time, these people desperately gathered in front of the railing, howling.
The old servant and others opened an iron door and knocked down the "prisoners" inside.
The prisoner grabbed the glass bottle that the Hu man had dropped in his hand and stuffed it into his mouth desperately, as if he wanted to swallow it completely.
"Quick, hold him down, take the glass bottle away!" The old servant said repeatedly.
Under the command of the old servant, several servants finally took away the glass bottle and hurriedly walked out.
As a result, the slow-walking servant, who was locked up, bit on the back leg and screamed in pain.
The other servants hurried forward and struck them with sticks.
The man who was chained didn't know the pain, but bit harder.
The next moment, the bitten servant suddenly screamed and stumbled out of the iron door.
"My legs ...... My legs ......"
But it was his calf that was bitten off a piece of flesh by that person.
Several other servants hurriedly pushed the man into the "cell" with clubs, and then quickly locked it.
When the man pounced again, he could only hit the iron door in vain.
"Give it to me...... Give me ......."
Among the other iron gates around them, those people also shouted: "Give me, give me, I want ......"
"Look, what to do?" A servant asked the old servant for advice.
The old servant glanced at the "prisoner" with messy hair and a mouth full of blood, and sighed: "Give them blessing anointing." ”
"Yes......" The servant walked through the iron door, and then the storehouse next to him made a noise, and then came back, holding a few iron boxes in his hands.
The old servant sighed: "Go, give it to them." ”
Except for one servant who bandaged the leg bite, the other servants were divided into an iron box and fed blessing ointment from one "cell" to another.
Song Nian suddenly became nervous.
Feeding them in rows, there are a few of them, but there is nowhere to hide.
"Lord Chu, what should I do?" Song Nian lived in a low voice.
Chu He said lightly: "It's okay, the Wang family only has these few servants, it's really not good, just take it directly." ”
Song Nian's face turned dark, okay, she thought she was sneaking in to reconnoitre, but as a result, she still used violent means.
