Chapter 717: It's an assassination
County Magistrate Zhang watched the scantily clad women walk out of the room, and then turned his head to look at Lu Qingyi: "I know that the adults already have a wife, so we won't play these today, just listen to a little song." β
"This place is located in the border area, and the customs are very different from those in the capital, so I will experience it today." County Magistrate Zhang looked at a few people with a smile.
Shen Xi pursed his mouth behind him, the decoration here is not as clean as it is, and he doesn't know what will happen in private.
Lu Qingyiliu sat down on the side of Wen Shenxi, and there were three or five women sitting not far from the windowsill outside, separated by a thick veil, and they couldn't see the woman's appearance clearly.
The melodious music came from the window, listening to this music, Lu Qingyi had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, and he always felt that something in his mind had become chaotic.
Subconsciously touched his heart with his hand, Lu Qingyi's face suddenly changed, the heartbeat was no longer normal, and the speed was much faster than usual.
Secretly said something bad in his heart, Lu Qingyi just wanted to say something, suddenly there was a chaos outside, the sound of music stopped abruptly, and even blood was splashed on the veil.
Shen Xi subconsciously let out an exclamation, and the whole person fell backwards, Lu Qingyi reacted quickly and grabbed Shen Xi: "Be careful, there may be assassination outside." β
Seeing this scene in front of him, Liu Congwen hurriedly gathered in the direction of the two of them, although County Magistrate Zhang was panicked, he did not lose his sense of proportion at this time.
He beckoned to the three people: "Three adults, follow me quickly, it's not safe here." β
In this situation, Lu Qingyi and they have no other way. Moreover, they also knew in their hearts that no matter how bold County Magistrate Zhang was, he would not dare to take their lives.
County Magistrate Zhang opened a secret door and took the three of them to hide in, this faΓ§ade decoration is not simple, although the sparrows are small, they are all in all directions.
"Does County Magistrate Zhang know what the situation is?" After entering the room, he breathed a sigh of relief, and Lu Qingyi hurriedly asked.
After hearing this, County Magistrate Zhang sighed and patted his chest with his hand: "You also know that we have a lot of bandits here, and at the same time, because of the border between the two countries, the personnel are chaotic. β
When Shen Xi heard this, the pupils of his eyes suddenly dilated a little, and he scratched his head with his hand: "Look at what you mean, County Magistrate Zhang, is this situation very common in your place?" β
"It's really ashamed, but it doesn't happen very often, but it happens a few times once in a while." County Magistrate Zhang shook his head gently.
Liu Congwen didn't say a word after he came in, and after asking these questions, Shen Xi and Lu Qingyi didn't speak again.
As if frightened, County Magistrate Zhang sat on a chair and looked at the soles of his feet. Time passed minute by minute, and when it was almost quiet outside, County Magistrate Zhang stood up from his chair: "The outside should have almost been resolved, let's go back now, it's not safe here." β
"How do you know it's safe outside?" Shen Xi frowned slightly: "Although it is quiet outside, who knows if anyone is ambushing?" β
Waving his hand slightly, County Magistrate Zhang continued to speak: "Those bandits came here for money, you are adults from the capital, and it is not good for them to kill you." β
"But now they don't get any money from us." Lu Qingyi felt that this answer was a bit illogical. No. 3 Chinese Network
"This ......" County Magistrate Zhang suddenly found that what he said was wrong, and he was a little speechless for a while. He coughed lightly: "In that case, let's stay inside for a while longer!" β
After saying this, County Magistrate Zhang lowered his head again. Lu Qingyi's eyes flickered, and he suddenly said: "No need, County Magistrate Zhang, as the local county magistrate, naturally knows more than us. We'll listen to you. β
The four of them cautiously walked out of the small dark room, and a large number of them had fallen outside, and there were even many corpses lying on the ground, and the blood could flow to everyone's feet.
Shen Xi pursed his lips, he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing on the first day he came here. County Magistrate Zhang cautiously walked outside: "Three be careful, it's not clean here." β
I finally got out of the restaurant, and it was much more chaotic outside than when they came, but fortunately, there were no corpses everywhere outside.
"Don't run around yet, our people will be here in a moment." County Magistrate Zhang stood at the door of the restaurant with three people.
After a while, a group of people dressed in black came over: "My lord, we are late. β
This group of people is the army stationed here, and they are transferred directly from the border side to station. County Magistrate Zhang nodded and led the three of them towards his home.
finally returned to the house, but County Magistrate Zhang's house was empty, and all the people in the family were gone. Liu Congwen covered his mouth: "What's the situation?" β
"Madame! What about my wife? Seeing this scene, County Magistrate Zhang's voice trembled, and he rushed towards the room in his house.
Shen Xi and Lu Qingyi glanced at each other, but they really couldn't figure out the situation in front of them. County Magistrate Zhang has not come out since he entered the mansion, Lu Qingyi was worried, and hurriedly chased in.
County Magistrate Zhang sat on the ground in the center of the room, the whole person looked very depressed, looking at Lu Qingyi who came in, he said: "It's all gone, it's all taken away by the bandits." β
Tonight's events frightened the hearts of the people, and they did not dare to stay in this place. In desperation, the four of them could only go to a separate courtyard of County Magistrate Zhang.
But this night, Shen Xi, Lu Qingyi, Liu Congwen couldn't sleep. These things are really a little weird, and Shen Xi vaguely feels that it is not that simple.
Shen Xi opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling above his head, and suddenly, something fell directly on his head. Shen Xi's body trembled and threw himself directly into Lu Qingyi's arms.
Lu Qingyi didn't fall asleep, and also noticed what was going on in his head. He pulled Shen Xi to the side and dodged, and the thing that fell from the top of his head was directly stuck to the bed board. It turned out to be a dagger that was shining, but there was no one above it.
"What the hell is going on?" Shen Xi frowned, and his heart was still beating suddenly.
Lu Qingyi gently touched Shen Xi's head: "Those people seem to be coming for us." β
"Yes...... In that case, they could have killed us just now. Shen Xi had already had this guess in his heart, but he vaguely felt that it was not very reasonable.
Lu Qingyi nodded, this is also what he didn't understand. I could only sigh helplessly: "I'm afraid these things still need to be investigated, but I don't think County Magistrate Zhang is so simple." β
"Isn't there something wrong with County Magistrate Zhang's family? Could it be that he would hurt his own people? β
